Chu Zhiyuan slowed down.

This young man's cultivation level is shallow and not yet innate. It is considered normal for this age group and he is not a martial arts wizard.

The young man was handsome, better than the average person, with a slender figure. There was blood seeping from many places on his chest and shoulders, making his face as pale as paper. Judging from his rapid breathing, it was obvious that he was seriously injured.

This is a life saved.

CAZ7 With such a level of cultivation, breaking into the underground secret room without knowing the mechanism is tantamount to seeking death. Being able to come out alive is extremely lucky.

It may also be related to the fact that it took too long and some mechanisms were damaged, thus weakening the power.

His cultivation level was so shallow that Chu Zhiyuan could see the flow of his inner energy at a glance without even having to make physical contact. What was operating was the martial arts mental method of Zhenyi Sect.

This is a disciple of Zhenyi Sect.

A disciple of the Zhenyi Sect, who knows the underground secret room, could he be a disciple of Bai Jingmang?

He turned around and said: "Lao Gao, there is a young man here. Check his background and don't disturb him." "Yes." Gao Jiong said hurriedly: "Don't worry, Prince, I will take care of him!"

Chu Zhiyuan knew that they wanted to do things most now, so he assigned them to them when they had something to do. Not only did he not feel pain, but he was happy.

The relationship between people is extremely complicated. Being a master cannot quickly accept and get close to the palace's attendants and guards. More connections need to be established. The fastest way is to do things together.

This can speed up their integration with the palace.

Chu Zhiyuan quickened his pace, turned around the alley and entered the bustling crowd, and met Huang Shirong and the three girls on the west side of Phoenix Avenue.

Huang Shirong still wore an apricot-yellow robe, with a sword hanging from her slender waist. She was as graceful as a willow, and the two women beside her were dressed in white as snow. They were so beautiful that they attracted the attention of the people around them. Chu Zhiyuan hugged her fists in the crowd, and Huang Shirong also hugged her fists gracefully. requite.

The two looked at each other and smiled, without stopping to say hello. The bright moon was like a jade plate.

Qingwangfu Street is wide, white and neat.

Carved lanterns with the word "Celebration" written on them hung high, one after another, lighting up as brightly as day. The guards patrolled across the street, full of energy.

As soon as Chu Zhiyuan stepped into the gate of the palace, Feng Xi came up to him and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the princess is waiting behind." "How long has it been since the mother-in-law came back?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.

Feng Xi replied: "It's been more than two hours."

"You have to wait a long time," Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile. Feng Xi nodded with a smile.

The princess was impatient and quick-tempered. She was playing chess and playing the piano in the waterside pavilion. She was restless and asked Chu Zhiyuan from time to time if he was back. Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand and quickened his pace.

Guo Chi and the four others dispersed, and Feng Xi also went to do his own thing. Only Zou Fang followed him to the back garden and onto the lake. The pavilions and waterside pavilions on the lake were brightly lit, reflecting the entire lake.

In a brightly lit booth, Bai Ningshuang was boredly feeding the fish. Occasionally, she absentmindedly sprinkled a piece of fish food, causing the fish below to surge and the waves to vibrate. Seeing him coming, Bai Ningshuang perked up and waved. , handed the fish food to the girl next to him, and sat on the Arhat bed in the small pavilion.

"Mom, how is grandma?"

"Sure enough, you are poisoned!" Bai Ningshuang snorted coldly: "Take the detoxification pill and you will be fine immediately!" "That's good."

After all, I have never seen the specific situation there, so I am not completely sure whether it is exactly as I expected. Now it seems that my judgment is correct. Bai Ningshuang said: "The empress went directly to the emperor."

Chu Zhiyuan was startled.

Bai Ningshuang said: "The emperor immediately threw Concubine Zhen into the cold palace!" "So quickly?" Chu Zhiyuan was puzzled.

The emperor would be furious when he heard the news.

In anger, the first step is of course to investigate clearly.

Who is responsible for poisoning and what they are responsible for?

But the emperor's first step was to throw Concubine Zhen into the cold palace?

Concubine Zhen was directly thrown into the cold palace without investigation. Did the emperor know in advance that it was Concubine Zhen who was responsible for the poison? But if he knew, he wouldn't be thrown into the cold palace now, right?

Or maybe Concubine Zhen has a criminal record and has done this kind of thing before and administered this kind of poison? But no matter what, it must be investigated thoroughly before handling, right?

What if someone framed her, what if she was wrongly accused? Concubine Zhen couldn't escape in the palace, so why rush to deal with it?

His imperial grandfather was a wise king, and he would not know this simple truth, but he resolutely threw Concubine Zhen into the cold palace. This incident was instantly shrouded in a layer of fog in his eyes.

Things in the inner palace are so turbulent that it is really difficult for outsiders to figure it out.

The inner palace was even more troubled, and none of the empresses who were named had any good deeds, otherwise they would have no chance to stand out.

Including Concubine Rou.

"Where does this Concubine Zhen come from?"

"It is said that Concubine Zhen was born as a martial arts warrior."

"That must be the beauty of the country and the powerful means." Chu Zhiyuan said.

If it was the previous dynasty, non-noble women were not eligible to enter the palace. In the harem of the Jing Dynasty, the threshold was not high, but the standards were high.

The scope of concubine selection includes not only the daughters of nobles, but also rich ladies of officials, chivalrous girls from martial arts sects, and even folk phoenixes. Although the emperor said that he treated everyone equally, how could he truly treat them equally.

If you don't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face, the emperor will give him three points of thin face for the daughter of his trusted ministers or meritorious ministers. It is difficult for a chivalrous girl from a martial arts sect to get ahead.

This Concubine Zhen must be extremely beautiful and have great skills.

"She is indeed a natural beauty." Bai Ningshuang nodded in agreement: "Even when I saw it, I felt ashamed." Chu Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows.

Bai Ningshuang hummed: "She is so beautiful, but she acts so viciously!" Chu Zhiyuan asked: "Which martial arts school did Concubine Zhen come from?"

Bai Ningshuang said: "It should be some mysterious sect, at least not one of the four major sects." If it were the four major sects, everyone would have known about it.

"Not the four major sects before?"

"...I don't know." Bai Ningshuang shook her head: "Your Majesty didn't say anything either. She just told me not to ask about this." "...It's not about inviting the Moon Palace, right?" Chu Zhiyuan said.

Concubine Rou asked the young man to inquire, and it was probably the four demon sects. Bai Ningshuang said: "The one from the Moon Palace is in charge of the West Palace." Chu Zhiyuan was even more surprised.

He really didn't know that the current Queen of the West Palace was actually invited to the Moon Palace.

It has always been the Queen of the East Palace who has made an appearance, and it was the Queen of the East Palace who appeared next to Chu Qingquan at the palace banquet that night. The Queen of the West Palace is said to be in poor health and rarely sees outsiders. She has always kept to herself in the palace and has little communication.

So many people don't know about the Queen of the West Palace, let alone see her. Chu Zhiyuan has no chance to see her.

"The empress reported directly to the emperor and specifically mentioned you." Bai Ningshuang smiled and said: "Just wait, there will definitely be a reward." Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile: "What reward is there?"

"Your Majesty, I guess she is a seventh-level martial artist."

"Seventh grade...it's okay." Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

One consequence of her emperor's wool is that she has raised her sights and is not so happy to see the ninth-grade gong. The eighth-grade gong is average, the seventh-grade gong is okay, the sixth-grade is okay, and the fifth-grade is good.

The seventh-level skill cannot give him a sense of surprise.

Bai Ningshuang said: "The emperor knows that you are as meticulous as your hair and a prodigy in martial arts. In the future, you will be able to get a good job when you reach the master's level." Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile: "Mother, you have worked hard, and you have worked hard too."

The Grandmaster can then choose the mission again.

His mother, Bai Ningshuang, had never thought so far. She focused on her own food, clothing, housing, transportation, and marrying a wife. Concubine Rou was still worried about her future. Her mother also knew that her vision was not good, and she was banned for thirty years. I am a little unfamiliar with the outside world, and I dare not interfere with my own decisions.

"It's okay if I work hard." Bai Ningshuang glared at him when she heard this: "You should go and see Ruo Ling. Don't disappear after getting engaged. Move around more. You are the most beautiful woman in Yujing." But he's indifferent!" Chu Zhiyuan hurriedly agreed to prevent her from nagging her any more. He stood up and said, "It's getting late. I have to go back to practice. Mom, you should also take a rest early."

"...Okay."

Bai Ningshuang still wanted to talk about the changes in the palace. Once Concubine Zhen entered the cold palace, the impact was huge.

The entire inner palace was stirred up, with undercurrents surging. Each palace and courtyard had its own actions, which was really lively. She found it so interesting that she wished she could go there every day to watch the excitement.
