After the exit at the gate of the palace, everything returned to calm.
At the same time, Long Xiaoyuan's reputation was also rising extremely.
In the imperial court, those courtiers who originally had different intentions shrank even more.
Those who have no dissent will be more loyal.
In this way, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou really calmed down.
Among the people brought by Mr. Chen, a few more were found out, and everything seemed to be proceeding in an orderly manner.
On this day, the weather was clear and cloudless.
Therefore, Long Xiaoyuan, who also stayed in the palace for a long time, decided to go out of the palace for a walk.
Shi Qingzhou had no objection, so the two went out together.
Arriving outside the palace, breathing the fresh air outside, Long Xiaoyuan felt much happier.
Shi Qingzhou turned his head and looked at Long Xiaoyuan. "Where are you going to go?"
"Hmm..." Long Xiaoyuan thought for a while. "Whatever, I don't have any goals. Does Qingzhou have any goals?"
Shi Qingzhou shook his head. "Then go to the Tianji Tower to exchange information."
"Tianji Tower." Long Xiaoyuan blinked, and immediately thought of that woman Wu Xiangyuan.
I curled my lips.
Shi Qingzhou looked at each other. "What? Don't want to go?"
Long Xiaoyuan shook his head. "Not really, let's go."
Shi Qingzhou narrowed his eyes and nodded. "Well, let's go."
The two of them walked towards the Tianji Building, where they naturally met Wu Ronghan directly.
Wu Ronghan rushed out to greet him.
"The grass people kowtow to the emperor, the queen."
"Lord Wu, you don't have to be polite." Long Xiaoyuan smiled slightly. "Let's go in and talk."
Wu Ronghan hurriedly welcomed Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou inside.
When Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou entered inside, Wu Xiangyuan's figure came out from the other side. Seeing Shi Qingzhou's back just now, her mood was extremely complicated.
Her brother Shishi...has really become someone else's...
Moreover, I am afraid that the other party only hates me now, right
If it wasn't for Daddy's rescue, I wouldn't even be able to save my life...
Thinking of this, Wu Xiangyuan couldn't help feeling sad.
After Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou disappeared, Wu Xiangyuan was about to leave too, when suddenly, a somewhat hoarse voice rang in her ears.
"Just give up like this, are you willing?"
Wu Xiangyuan was taken aback for a moment, and then his expression changed immediately.
"who are you?"
"Miss, don't be nervous. You can't see me where I am. I just want to ask, are you really willing? The person you like is taken away, and your father almost lost the entire Tianji Building to save you. Are you really happy?" Are you willing?"
Wu Xiangyuan's face turned pale, and the fists beside her were clenched.
The voice continued: "As long as that dog emperor Long Xiaoyuan dies, then the person the lady likes will belong to the lady, and the Tianji Building doesn't have to be suppressed by the royal family... That dog emperor, damn it..."
Wu Xiangyuan bit her lip and said, "Where are you and who are you! What kind of a man is he who hides his head and shows his tail!"
"Miss wants to see me?" The voice smiled. "Of course that's fine, but...you need to think it through. When the lady thinks it through, the old man will naturally appear..."
After all, the voice disappeared without a trace.
Wu Xiangyuan wanted to find him, but he couldn't find him no matter what...
At this time, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou were talking to Wu Ronghan.
"Don't dare to hide it from the emperor, in fact, the grass people are also trying to send some news to the emperor."
"Oh?" Long Xiaoyuan raised his eyebrows. "I don't know what news the Lord Wu is talking about?"
Wu Ronghan immediately said: "Please wait a moment, the emperor, the grass people will go and fetch the things."
Long Xiaoyuan nodded.
After Wu Ronghan left, Long Xiaoyuan asked curiously: "Qingzhou, what news do you think Wu Ronghan wants to give us?"
Shi Qingzhou pondered for a moment, and said: "It may be news from Dongye Kingdom, or from the North Kingdom."
"Huh?" Long Xiaoyuan was a little surprised. "Why does Qingzhou think so?"
Shi Qingzhou said lightly: "The news we need are only these two places, and the ones that make him want you to contact us are only these two places...
…Of course, I'm just guessing. "
Long Xiaoyuan blinked, then smiled and took Shi Qingzhou's hand.
Shi Qingzhou turned to the other party with some doubts. "What's wrong?"
Long Xiaoyuan shook his head, smiled and said, "No, I just think Qingzhou is too powerful."
Shi Qingzhou raised his eyebrows. "It's just a guess, not a fact."
"I think Qingzhou's guesses are usually very close to the facts. Qingzhou's brain is really good."
Shi Qingzhou paused, and said slowly: "Could it be that you feel that your brain is not working well?"
When Long Xiaoyuan heard the words, he immediately turned black. "How come! You think too much!"
Shi Qingzhou shrugged slightly. "Well, I think too much."
Long Xiaoyuan pinched Shi Qingzhou's waist angrily.
"Hiss..." Shi Qingzhou felt a little pain, but also felt a little itchy.
Long Xiaoyuan said bitterly: "I'll deal with you when I go back."
Shi Qingzhou squinted his eyes. "Um?"
Long Xiaoyuan coughed. "Lord Wu is coming soon, don't make trouble."
Who is it? Shi Qingzhou pouted.
When Wu Ronghan came, Shi Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan were serious again.
Especially Long Xiaoyuan, he seemed to be more serious.
Wu Ronghan handed the bamboo slips to Long Xiaoyuan, Long Xiaoyuan took it and read it.
After a while, Long Xiaoyuan said slowly: "Is this news correct?"
Wu Ronghan said sternly, "It's the news from the spies who have been lurking in Dongye Kingdom for 20 years. It should be correct."
Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan, and Long Xiaoyuan gave the bamboo slips to him.
Shi Qingzhou also looked at the bamboo slips, and raised his eyebrows after a while.
"Can you find the person above?" Long Xiaoyuan asked.
"It's hard to say now about the spy who needs to contact the grassroots." Wu Ronghan said truthfully.
Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou looked at each other, and then Long Xiaoyuan said: "We already know about this matter, the owner of this bamboo slip should keep it, but this matter must be a secret."
"The grass people understand."
Long Xiaoyuan said nothing more.
Shi Qingzhou and Wu Ronghan exchanged some more information, and ordered the other party to do two things before leaving.
After arriving outside, Long Xiaoyuan said: "Qingzhou, if the news is true... Fang Shuoyang and Xu You may be in danger."
Shi Qingzhou nodded. "It's true... I didn't expect that King Zhou already had a favorite candidate for the crown prince, and he kept it so secret."
"The three princes of Dongye Kingdom, including the present Fang Shuoyang, are all his pawns...they are his stepping stones for the real successor."
The two looked at each other again, and then Long Xiaoyuan said softly: "You said, I wrote a letter to ask Xu You to come back, will he come back?"
"If Fang Shuoyang was there, he wouldn't come back." Shi Qingzhou said lightly.
Long Xiaoyuan let out a long breath when he heard the words. "Fang Shuoyang, let's call him back... can we call him back?"
Shi Qingzhou thought about it carefully, and then slowly shook his head. "have no idea."
Long Xiaoyuan smiled wryly. "Fang Shuoyang went to inquire about the news of Dongye Kingdom. Now, the other party has made some achievements there. Let him come back now. His status is too embarrassing. Even if it is dangerous, he should give it a go."
Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan. "I think so too."
"Even if it's not for power, but for the one he loves, Fang Shuoyang...will not come back. Here, his identity is too embarrassing. If I were him..."
Long Xiaoyuan didn't say anything more about the latter, but just sighed softly.
On the contrary, Shi Qingzhou pursed his lips and asked lightly: "If you were you, what would you do?"
Hearing the words, Long Xiaoyuan looked at Shi Qingzhou firmly, and then said softly: "If it were me, I would protect my loved ones by doing my own strength, and give them a safe and worry-free environment. Rather than... living under the fence."
Shi Qingzhou's heart skipped a beat, looking at Long Xiaoyuan's deep eyes... Slowly looked away, the roots of his ears turned slightly red.
"However, Yuelong Dynasty is so big, it can't be regarded as being under the fence...Qingzhou, what do you think we should do?"
"The person King Zhou hid is our biggest variable." Shi Qingzhou said.
Long Xiaoyuan nodded in agreement with Shi Qingzhou's words. "If you can know the character of the other party and other things... you can also determine the future of Dongye Kingdom and us."
Shi Qingzhou paused when he heard the words, and said suddenly: "If Fang Shuoyang proclaims himself emperor... all troubles will be gone."
Long Xiaoyuan was taken aback.
Shi Qingzhou said indifferently: "Isn't it? If Fang Shuoyang becomes the emperor, within a hundred years, there should be no more wars between Dongye Kingdom and Yuelong Dynasty."
Long Xiaoyuan's heart beat violently. "you… "
Shi Qingzhou lowered his eyelids slightly. "I'm just talking."
Long Xiaoyuan grabbed Shi Qingzhou's hand fiercely, with such strength that he almost hurt him!
"How can you say it casually! This idea is really great!"
Shi Qingzhou: "..."
