Looking at the handsome and calm young man, Chen Changsheng bowed calmly, but his mood was not as calm as he appeared.

King Chenliu has the blood of the royal family and is naturally talented. He has grown up in the deep palace since childhood. His identity is too noble and he will not participate in the imperial examination. He has no chance to show his level. However, the president of Tiandaoyuan and the priests in the palace said that with his realm and strength, it was very easy to enter the Qingyun List. Now he is over 20 years old, but as long as he is willing, he will definitely have a place on the gold list.

But the fact that he was able to gain the respect of important officials and generals like Xu Shiji had nothing to do with the bloodline and realm of the royal family. It was just because the Holy Empress treated him differently and left him in Kyoto. This incident caused countless speculations - could it be that the Holy Empress was willing to succeed the throne of the Great Zhou Dynasty?

Many people think of this, but over the years, the Tianhai family is extremely arrogant. After all, King Chenliu's surname is Chen, and the Holy Queen has never had an obvious attitude. No one knows what role he will play in the future Great Zhou Dynasty. Therefore, people in Kyoto have a complicated mood to treat him, and they have to stay away from him.

As a god general of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Xu Shiji was deeply trusted by the Holy Empress. Because he had made too many enemies in the court when he wiped out the royal rebellion, he was more cautious about King Chenliu, but he had to try to do something, at least not offend the other party.

He knew that King Chenliu was hosting the Qingteng Banquet tonight on behalf of the Holy Grace Queen and was responsible for receiving the southern missions from afar, but he did not expect that he would meet the other party outside the hall, and he was reminding himself of some things intentionally or unintentionally, protecting Chen Changsheng.

Xu Shiji confirmed that Chen Changsheng's engagement with his family was unknown, so the sudden appearance of His Royal Highness Chenliu and his intention of protecting him could only fall on the National Education Academy. This reminded him of the rumors that have been vaguely spread in Kyoto recently and felt a little uneasy.

King Chenliu glanced at Xu Shiji, then looked at Chen Changsheng and asked with a smile: "Is there anything I need my help?"

His voice was neither anxious nor slow, and his expression was gentle and friendly. It gave people the feeling that it was really like a spring breeze, which made people feel warm and comfortable.

At the beginning, Chen Changsheng did not understand the way His Highness protected him in his words. After hearing that sentence, he could solve it. At this time, he was even more grateful when he listened to the other party's gentle and earnest words and said, "Thank you for your concern."

"Don't thank me. In fact, you kid was hit by a fish pond. We useless guys who are watching the scenery on the city gate should say sorry."

King Chenliu looked at him and said with a smile, speaking casually, but his tone was very sincere.

Only when the city gate is fired will it affect the fish in the pond.

If it weren't for the re-enrollment of the new and old forces of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Chen Changsheng was just an ordinary boy who was unknown, so how could he be watched by people in Kyoto and how could he cause so much trouble?

King Chenliu didn't know the stories between Chen Changsheng and the Dongyu Shenzong Mansion, and thought that Xu Shiji was causing trouble for him, and that he was also one of the many troubles mentioned in the above words. As a member of the royal family, it was natural that he apologized to Chen Changsheng.

Of course, the ability of a prince to apologize to an ordinary person like Chen Changsheng proves that he is really approachable. In front of Xu Shiji, in the palace, he did not hide the conflict between the old royal family and the Holy Queen Mother, and he showed more generous and elegant.

"Your Highness, you are kind."

Chen Changsheng really likes the prince and said, "If you have something to trouble your prince, I will tell you."

"Very good, I like this kind of love, and I'm not afraid of trouble."

King Chenliu smiled and patted his shoulder, then walked into the hall. The night was followed by guards. Before leaving, he looked at Xu Shiji with a calm and gentle look, without any warning, but full of warning.

The soft light of the night pearls became a little unstable when passing through the bright paper between the window frames.

Xu Shiji's face was shining with light, and it was a little cloudy and unstable.

His Highness Chenliu left, but his words remained in the corridor in front of the hall, and the night wind blew away.

Xu Shiji could not do anything to Chen Changsheng anymore, and his face turned like frost: "You are lucky."

Chen Changsheng thought for a while and said, "Or it's because I have a good character."

After saying this, he laughed.

In the eyes of many people, Chen Changsheng has mature and steady beyond his age, because he has always been very calm and rarely shows great joy and sorrow. He gets along with people who are not very close to him, but just keeps a politeness and doesn't even smile a lot.

But he smiled happily at this time because he was in front of Xu Shiji.

Xu Shiji was also laughing, as if he thought the child's answer was very interesting and childish, but he smiled ugly.

After all, Weiyang Palace is not the main hall, nor the inner palace where the Holy Empress lives. A little farther away, there are some abandoned gardens. At this time, the night was dark, and a black sheep slowly emerged from the weeds in the waste garden, with stars shining on its eyes, which was extremely gloomy.

Xu Shiji looked at the night scene, raised his eyebrows slightly, said nothing more, and walked into the hall with his sleeves.

Chen Changsheng also saw the black sheep.

The black sheep looked at him quietly, then walked towards the direction outside the palace. While walking, she stopped and looked back at him, as if she wanted to show him the way.

Chen Changsheng understood the meaning of this black sheep - it wanted him to leave the palace.

Although he could not talk, he vaguely felt and was sure that the black sheep was kind to him. Then this might mean that the matter tonight was not over, and it was even possible that the real hardship or danger had just begun.

But he didn't follow because he wanted to attend today's Qingteng Banquet.

Until now, he has not thought about what he should do when the Southern Mission proposes marriage, but he wants to see it with his own eyes.

Or when you see it, you will know how to do it.

...

...

The black sheep disappeared into the night.

Chen Changsheng stood in the light outside the hall, thinking about the horror aura emitted by Xu Shiji before, and knew that it was very dangerous before.

Xu Shiji said he was lucky because of the sudden appearance of His Highness Chenliu.

He replied: Maybe it may be because of his good character.

Character means morality without loss or loss.

Those who attain enlightenment will inevitably have many helps.

This is the truth he read in the Three Thousand Books of Dao.

He left Xining Town and came to Kyoto, and suffered a lot of suppression, humiliation, and temptation, but many people also helped him, such as the Bishop of the Cultivate Office, such as Priest Xin, His Highness Chenliu, and the black sheep that disappeared in the night.

Why do these people help themselves? He is very clear-headed. It has nothing to do with character and morality. He should not bear some humiliation and pressure after coming to Beijing. He should not have such help. Many things are just because of misunderstandings.

Only the Dongyu Shen General's Mansion and the big man in the palace knew about the engagement between him and Xu Yourong, but no one else knew about it. Many people thought that his humiliation and blow to him a few months before entering the National Education Academy and the Dongyu Shen General's Mansion had a profound effect.

The National Education College is a lake where no one comes to see each other, with many wild lotus flowers growing inside.

He was just a passerby who accidentally entered this abandoned lake and wanted to row the boat to the other side of the lake. When he raised his oars, he was startled with a bunch of gulls and herons.

Just as I was thinking about this, a shrill bird cry suddenly came from the night in the distance, and then there was a faint sound of water splashing everywhere.

I don't know if it's the night bird that is preying on or being preyed.

Chen Changsheng turned around and looked at the dark night, and some warning signs arose in his heart.

At this moment, a sound rang out.

The sound comes from deep in the night, but it is not scattered in the night.

The sound comes from the depths of the palace, but is not scattered in the temple.

The sound rang directly in his ears and then fell directly into his heart.

The sound is crisp and moving, like the smell of candied haws in winter, but more like winter.

"You are Chen Changsheng?"

There was silence all around. The sound of silk and bamboo in Weiyang Palace passed through the window paper, which was very light. The sound of the autumn wind blowing the leaves in the distance passed through the wide square, which was very light. The sound that directly sounded in his heart was also very light, but it looked like thunder.

If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely be terrified when he suddenly heard a voice sounding in his heart. Chen Changsheng did not react. He looked at the numerous palaces in the night and tried to find the location of the person who spoke.

He read through the Daozang and knew that some powerful people in the Star Gathering Realm could easily convey their voices to ordinary people's ears.

"You are more calmer than I thought, or, rather, dull?"

The sound rang again.

"I just hope you're smarter than I thought."

There was a woman in the palace who had already reached the Star Gathering Realm at a young age and didn't care about the words that King Chenliu had left before. She could imagine how terrifying the power and status, and her identity was about to emerge. She was the big figure in the palace that Chen Changsheng had thought of before.

He looked at the numerous palaces in the night and saluted calmly, "I have seen Miss Mo."

The voice disappeared for a moment, and it seemed that Chen Changsheng could immediately think of who she was, or was not used to this title.

The master of the voice is the legendary Miss Mo Yu.

The second most powerful woman in the Great Zhou Dynasty may even be the second most powerful person.

"You can call me Miss Mo Yu."

"Yes, Miss Mo."

For some reason, Chen Changsheng seemed a little stubborn tonight.

Maybe it was because he knew the reason why Mo Yu suddenly appeared.

"You are indeed a very smart boy."

"polite."

"These are the storms in Kyoto, but you have been staying in the National Education College. This is why I say you are smart."

"polite."

"It's just that cleverness... seems a little shameless."

"Please give me advice."

"You guessed Luo Luo's identity, so hiding behind her is not shameless?"

"It was you who arranged for me to go to the National Education College. You know that I just want to study and practice, and I didn't think so much."

"But you are still using her."

"That's what she means."

"Even if there is some masculine spirit, I will not deceive such a innocent and innocent little girl."

"Have I deceived her?"

"If it weren't for a deception, how could a person with a status like her take you as his teacher?"
