"Let me report this to Your Majesty."
Smiling gently at the female officer, Liang Yuan bowed slightly and walked towards the imperial study. After reaching out and tapping a few times, he said, "Your Majesty, this old slave has come in."
The imperial study room was still quiet, so quiet that it was a bit eerie.
Liang Yuan seemed to have been used to all this for a long time. He reached out and pushed open the door of the imperial study, stepped in, and closed the door of the study with a creak.
After he left, the female officer's feet weakened and she almost fell to the ground, with a look of tears on her face.
In just a few moments, she was frightened twice in a row. If she hadn't always remembered that she was Her Royal Highness the Princess's personal officer and represented the face of the Changsheng Palace, relying on this support, she could barely avoid being in front of Liang Yuan. Gaffe.
Otherwise, given the state in which she was frightened in front of Lu Li, she would definitely be embarrassed in front of Liang Yuan.
And with every move she made in this palace, she lost no one of her own, but the Changsheng Palace, the eldest princess Mu Ningqiu!
"It's okay, okay, Manager Liang seems to be in a good mood today and he didn't embarrass me."
While the female officer was slightly relieved, she was also thinking wildly in her mind, feeling that Manager Liang Yuanda was not as harsh as the legend said.
Compared to Lu Li's 'murderous' smile, General Manager Liang Yuanda can simply be described as being kind to others.
When she thought of Lu Li's smile towards her, the female officer felt a chill on her back. Her thoughts were interrupted and she secretly wondered what on earth she was thinking about
Banishing distracting thoughts, she quietly waited for General Manager Liang Yuanda to walk out of the imperial study.
But after waiting for a long time, this strange atmosphere made her feel a little uncomfortable. She hesitated again and again, but finally couldn't restrain her curiosity and raised her head to take a peek at the imperial study room.
The light and shadow reflected on the doors and windows are extremely neat, and in this calm atmosphere, it actually looks a bit scary.
At a certain moment, the female officer even saw those projections moving like living creatures, which made her heart tighten and she almost screamed out in surprise.
Fortunately, the vigilance habit she had developed over the years made her cover her mouth instantly and stare at those shadows non-stop. However, the originally twisted and moving shadows were reflected quietly on the window as if nothing had happened. , as if everything was just her illusion.
Squeak—
Just when the female officer was thinking of retreating, the door to the royal study was opened again, and the light of the lights cast a shadow that stretched on the ground like a poisonous snake.
It's Liang Yuan.
The female officer wanted to say hello again, but she saw that the old man with a gentle smile was expressionless at this time, as if he was dead.
She felt cold and quickly lowered her head, her eyes even missing the shadow on the ground.
Liang Yuan did not look at her, but turned around and looked into the royal study room. He closed the door indifferently, came to the female officer, and said a single word concisely.
"Walk."
…
Palace of Eternal Life.
Under the guidance of the female officer, Liang Yuan entered this palace with a lot of history. Although his eyes were calm, there was also some emotion hidden in his eyes.
Being named after the word "immortality", it should not belong to a princess like Mu Ningqiu.
This palace has been the residence of the princes of the past dynasties, and every emperor of the Tiantian Holy Kingdom has lived here.
Now its owner is Mu Ningqiu, and the deep meaning behind this has long been self-evident.
After many years, Liang Yuan couldn't help but sigh when he stepped into the Changsheng Palace again.
The female officer led him to the side hall and said casually: "Mr. Liang, His Highness and distinguished guests are waiting for you."
"good."
Liang Yuan came to his senses and nodded.
Ever since he left the Imperial Study Room, he had been like this with few words, which made the female officer tense all the time, for fear of saying the wrong thing and neglecting the old man.
Fortunately, what happened next had nothing to do with her.
After saluting Liang Yuan again, she took a few steps back, indicating that Liang Yuan could enter the side hall.
Liang Yuan smiled at her silently, then stepped into it.
When he raised his head again, he saw Mu Ningqiu sitting at the top of the hall, and...
Liang Yuan's eyes moved and looked at Lu Li beside Mu Ningqiu.
The expression on his face relaxed slightly, revealing a genuine smile.
"I have met Her Royal Highness the Princess." After smiling at Lu Li, Liang Yuan raised his hand to greet Mu Ningqiu.
After a pause, he Li Li again, nodded and said, "Now it's time for me to call you Master Lu."
"Mr. Liang is too polite."
Lu Li waved his hand: "In front of you, I am still a junior."
"The youngest grandmaster in Zhenwu Domain is not considered a junior." Liang Yuan smiled slightly, and then said: "I wonder what the important matter is for Mr. Lu to find this old slave?"
He didn't ask Mu Ningqiu and simply acquiesced that the person who came to him was Lu Li and not Mu Ningqiu.
This move was a bit 'rude', but Mu Ningqiu did not feel dissatisfied and sat quietly without any intention of interrupting.
Lu Li said naturally: "Mr. Liang, please take a seat. It is indeed my intention to come to you today. If I have caused any offense, please forgive me."
With that said, Lu Li stretched out his hand and led Liang Yuan to sit down.
Liang Yuan was not polite, nodded and smiled, thanked Mu Ningqiu again, turned around and sat on the seat that had been prepared under the side hall.
Then, he looked at Lu Li, as if waiting for Lu Li to give him an answer.
Lu Li seemed to be thinking about how to speak to Liang Yuan at this time, and said with a smile: "Mr. Liang has been in the palace recently, have you encountered anything strange?"
"Something strange?" Liang Yuan looked 'surprised', pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "The old slave has been with His Majesty almost all day long, and has no time to pay attention to what is going on in the palace, but he is not aware of it."
After saying that, he looked at Lu Li and asked, "Did Mr. Lu discover something fishy?"
"I can't say it's strange."
"It's just some speculation. There is no evidence yet. I thought Manager Liang would have some clues, so I brought you here for verification."
Lu Li smiled meaningfully and met Liang Yuan's eyes, but saw a similar light in his eyes.
Old treacherous and slippery.
This evaluation flashed through Lu Li's mind.
As everyone knows, Liang Yuan also has similar thoughts in his heart.
"This little fox."
Liang Yuan smiled silently in his heart.
How could he not know why Lu Li came to him
His Majesty's recent eccentricities cannot be hidden from his eyes at all.
Similar suspicions have long taken root in his heart, but this matter is very involved. Without accurate evidence, no matter how high his status is, he will be alerted if he acts rashly.
After learning that Lu Li had entered the palace, Liang Yuan had the idea of joining forces with him.
This current meeting is exactly what Liang Yuan himself is looking forward to.
But he really didn't expect that Lu Li would be so 'cautious', and even now he refused to bring up the subject, as if he was waiting for him to bring it up.
"Is it caution, or just plain distrust?"
Liang Yuan weighed it in his heart, and suddenly smiled lightly and said: "Master Lu, let's not test each other. There are too many people involved in this matter. I believe you are aware of this. If you are not careful, I don't know how many people will be involved." So I lost my head, I understand that you want to be completely sure, but since we have to talk now, let’s talk openly and honestly, and there must always be some trust between each other.”
"do you think so."
Having said this, Liang Yuan smiled at Lu Li.
"Mr. Liang makes sense." Lu Li nodded and agreed, "Some things really need to be discussed openly and honestly. Especially when it comes to such major matters, we really need to establish a certain trust relationship with each other."
"Then, please let Mr. Liang start first."
The smile on Liang Yuan's face suddenly froze, and he looked at Lu Li dumbfounded.
After talking for a long time, you little fox still refuse to speak first
Are you saying those words just now to fool people
That’s all.
Liang Yuan sighed and did not continue to worry about the matter.
Recalling the scene he had just seen in the imperial study, Liang Yuan knew that this matter could not be delayed any longer.
So he shook his head, looked at Lu Li and said, "Although I don't know what Master Lu has noticed, if I tell you, the source of the undercurrent in the palace can all be traced back to one person."
At this point, Liang Yuanlue paused and said in a heavy tone: "Your Majesty, you should no longer be Your Majesty."
