Shadow guard, he carried my cub

Chapter 20

Chi Ming felt that the other party was trying to quibble and became even more furious. Just as he was about to get angry again, the man took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty calm down, why don't you make a decision after seeing Cao Min's face."

Chi Ming suppressed the anger in his heart, raised his sword eyebrows indifferently: "Oh?"

The man raised his hand and took off his veil, bowed to Chi Ming and saluted again: "Caomin Gu Changqing pays his respects to His Majesty."

Chi Ming's heart skipped a beat, and the fingers he was holding unconsciously clenched. Is it a coincidence or someone did it on purpose?Chi Ming looked at Gu Changqing in a trance, and the handsome man in front of him seemed to have instantly turned into an ugly monster in his eyes, clawing at him with claws and claws, and smiling strangely at him.

Chi Ming's expression was stunned for a moment, as if he was stunned by a demon.

"Owner!"

Yiying's timely voice brought Chi Min back to reality, Chi Min came back to his senses, and regained his composure after a while.

"Is that Gu Changqing? I will make you a servant and live in Wanxia Hall."

Gu Changqing grinned: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Chi Ming looked at Yu Shen who was kneeling again: "From today on, Yu Shen will be promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and he will be competent immediately."

Yu Shen almost wept with joy, bowed his head again and again to thank him, he won the bet after all.

In the Qianqiu Pavilion, Shen Qiuchen was looking through the medical books. His Majesty asked him to investigate the matter but there was no clue. The medical books were almost torn by him and there was no clue. Because of this matter, Shen Qiuchen's hair was going bald.

He scratched his hair in annoyance, and a few strands of black hair were wrapped around his fingers and taken off together, the other party still didn't know it.

Gu Changqing floated in like a ghost, and floated directly to Shen Qiuchen's precious medicine cabinet.

"Wow! There are so many medicines, they must be very expensive."

Only then did Shen Qiuchen realize that someone he didn't know floated in, and he was immediately taken aback.

"Who are you? Get away from them!"

While picking and choosing from the porcelain bottles placed on the medicine cabinet, Gu Changqing seemed to be picking out a beloved gift, and replied without looking back: "I am Your Majesty's new servant, Gu Changqing, a genius doctor, and the medicines you have here are really good. , any bottle is worth a hundred taels."

Speaking of his precious medicine, Shen Qiuchen became energetic, and his expression was full of satisfaction: "That's right, this is a medicine developed by a genius doctor. It is naturally valuable, and the most important thing is that it cannot be bought with money."

"No," Shen Qiuchen suddenly reacted: "I was almost led astray by you, who are you? How could His Majesty be named a servant?"

"Why is it impossible? If you don't believe me, you can ask His Majesty in person, but His Majesty personally sealed it in person. Hey, I just needed this medicine, so I took it away."

"give me back!"

My precious medicine can't be taken away by someone of unknown origin, Shen Qiuchen rushed to snatch it, but he didn't expect that the other party looked soft and weak, but in fact he was a practitioner, Shen Qiuchen, who didn't know any martial arts at all, was easily taken away by the other party If it is loose, it dodges.

Shen Qiuchen knew that he was not an opponent and quickly called Yingjiu for help. Yingjiu mainly wanted to protect Shen Qiuchen's safety and usually hid in the dark.

After dozens of moves, the two of them naturally had concerns about each other and did not make a ruthless attack. In the end, Yingjiu was slightly behind and let Gu Changqing out. Although neither of them used their full strength, it is not difficult to see that Gu Changqing's martial arts is really not worth it. Low.

That night, Shen Qiuchen sued His Majesty aggressively.

When he came to the Moyang Hall, Shen Qiuchen sat on the chair with a face like someone owed him several million taels, humming left and right but didn't speak.Finally, His Majesty finally couldn't stand it any longer, put down the ink pen in his hand and asked:

"What's wrong with you? Didn't you have enough for dinner?"

Shen Qiuchen ignored Chi Min's joke, and asked directly: "Is that Gu Changqing your new servant?"

"Yes."

There was still some doubts at first, but now Shen Qiuchen can no longer calm down after being admitted personally: "Why do you..."

Realizing that there was Yiying beside him, Shen Qiuchen immediately stopped talking, and changed his words: "Why do you suddenly want to accept the servant, you haven't done it before."

The answer Chi Ming gave was simple: "I can't refuse someone who comes to my door."

At any rate, they grew up together, although they didn't understand what His Majesty wanted, but there was still some trust, and then Shen Qiuchen no longer struggled, but it was hard to avoid feeling distressed at the thought of a bottle of medicine being taken away for no reason.

"Hmph, what should I do if His Majesty's waiter took a bottle of medicine from me?"

"There is still one Ganoderma lucidum that Beimo paid tribute to last year, and I will have someone send it to you tomorrow."

Meat Ganoderma lucidum is a good thing, a rare elixir that money can't buy, it's worth it now.

"That line, His Majesty is busy, and the minister is leaving."

Shen Qiuchen got up and left contentedly humming a little song.

"Is there anything you want to say to me?"

Chi Ming suddenly asked Yiying, and Yiying looked puzzled, not knowing what the master meant: "What is the master referring to?"

"Even Qiu Chen thinks it's not normal for me to be named a new Servant suddenly, but you don't ask, Yi?"

"The master has his own considerations in doing things, and his subordinates dare not speak nonsense, let alone interfere with the master."

"You think asking the last sentence is interference?"

Yiying didn't know how to answer, what the master was going to do was something he, a shadow guard, should ask, it was beyond the scope of his duties.

Yiying had no choice but to answer honestly: "The duty of a subordinate is to protect the safety of the master."

Chi Ming sighed helplessly, the boy who could talk to him was gone after all.

"Let's not talk about this, let's change the subject, does Yi feel familiar with Gu Changqing?"

Yiying nodded honestly: "Yes, the feeling that Gu Changqing gives to his subordinates is very similar to that of Wujiu."

"Do you think he pretended to be innocent?"

"Yes, Wu Jiu seems to be approaching the master intentionally. If Gu Zhangqing is really pretending to be Wu Jiu, the master should be careful."

"Perhaps he was not malicious."

"Ok?"

Yiying was puzzled, why did the master conclude that there was no blame and no malice.

"What I mean is, if you have time, you can keep an eye on Gu Changqing for me. You don't have to deliberately hide your whereabouts, just test him out."

"Yes, my subordinates obey."

"Hey, I heard no, His Majesty has appointed a new servant who looks really good-looking."

"It's nonsense, Your Majesty has kept himself clean for so many years and doesn't even have a harem, how could he become a servant?"

At the bottom of the wall where no one was around, three or four court ladies gathered around in groups of three or four, and one of the court ladies was busy sharing her gossip with her good sisters.

The maid who heard her own words was refuted and said immediately: "It's true, I have a good sister who works in Longgan Palace, but she said it herself, and I heard that His Majesty's love for this new servant will last forever." None of the genius doctors in the pavilion dare to provoke him."

A few court ladies beside them exclaimed, both envious and jealous. There is no woman in the palace who does not dream of being favored by His Majesty, who can fly up a branch and become a phoenix, but it is a pity that His Majesty never looks at them.

In the past, there were courageous sisters who tried to seduce His Majesty, but were kicked out of the palace after being beaten up by His Majesty. The lessons learned from the past showed that no court lady dared to sway her mind, but this does not mean that no one is lucky enough to still dream of dreams.

These maids were still chatting about how His Majesty doted on the new servant, but no one noticed that Shui Qinglian, who was passing by, heard their words clearly.

"Is what you said true?"

As soon as they heard the voice behind them, the maids were so frightened that they immediately lined up in a row and stood upright. Everyone lowered their heads slightly and no one dared to speak.

Shui Qinglian's upset voice increased a lot: "I'm all dumb, talk!"

The maid who spoke first had no choice but to speak tremblingly: "This is all nonsense, please forgive Miss Qinglian, this servant will never dare again."

Talking about the master, especially His Majesty, behind his back, he was expelled from the palace, or even beaten to death with sticks. The maids were so frightened that they almost cried.

And Shui Qinglian doesn't care if these girls are talking about the master. To be honest, no matter how strict the management of the big palace is, there will inevitably be some people with bad mouths. Close one eye, if there is no serious situation, just give a verbal warning, but what Shui Qinglian cares about is His Majesty's new servant.

In the past, there was no one around His Majesty, and even if His Majesty did not accept her, she would have no one else, so she still had unlimited opportunities, but now suddenly Cheng Yaojin took away His Majesty's love, Shui Qinglian felt resentful, especially the other party was still a Man, can a man have her?

The seeds of jealousy and hatred sprouted quietly in Shui Qinglian's heart.

Gu Changqing sat in the bronze mirror and inserted a white jade hairpin into his hair. The hairpin didn’t have any eye-catching decorations. In the bronze mirror, he was handsome and handsome, with half of the black hair hanging on his back and half of it rolled up high and fixed with a white jade hairpin. Gu Changqing looked around I am very satisfied.

The serving lady brought a bowl of bird's nest and said in a gentle voice, "Your Majesty, this is the bird's nest that the Queen Mother gave to you, please drink it while it's hot."

"Okay, I got it, let's let it go first."

"Yes."

The maid put the bird's nest on the table and bowed back. Gu Changqing came to the table and used a spoon to stir the bird's nest in the bowl casually. Although the bird's nest is a rare thing, rich people can drink it, but the bird's nest is also divided into three parts. Sixth and ninth grades, the bird's nests in the palace are all tribute items, even the best that money can't buy.

Gu Changqing looked at the top-quality bird's nest in front of him, but he didn't want to drink it at all. He picked up the bird's nest and walked to a kitten he raised casually. Next to the cat's mouth, the kitten stretched out its pink tongue and licked a few mouthfuls. After a while, the kitten screamed a few times and fell down without moving.

Gu Changqing knew it in his heart, he put the bird's nest in a food box with a strange smile, and took the food box out of his Luoxia Palace.

In the administrative hall, Chi Ming is practicing calligraphy. It’s rare that there are not many things to take time to practice calligraphy today. The desks are all written by Chi Ming. The strokes are vigorous and powerful. It matched his personality perfectly, he was decisive, powerful and domineering.

After a while, the servant entered the hall to report, and the servant asked to see him, but Chi Ming said without raising his head, "Let him in."

Not long after the waiter's voice subsided, Gu Changqing came in with a food box: "Your Majesty has worked so hard every day, the Empress Dowager rewarded me with a bowl of bird's nest, and I reluctantly brought it for Your Majesty to taste."

Gu Changqing said with a smile on his face, walked over and put the food box on the table, and took out the bird's nest inside, and presented it to His Majesty with both hands.

"Your Majesty, please use it."

Chi Ming's expression suddenly became serious, he took the bird's nest and glanced at Yiying beside him, Yiying immediately took out a silver needle and put it in the bird's nest, half of the silver needle turned black in an instant.

Gu Changqing covered her mouth and pretended to be surprised: "How could this happen, Your Majesty has learned from you, I really don't know."

At this moment, Chi Ming's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip water: "You go back first, I will investigate this matter."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I will take my leave first."

After Gu Changqing left, Chi Ming put the bird's nest in his hand heavily on the table, and the bird's nest shook from side to side a few times and splashed a little.

"It's unreasonable, it seems that I am too kind to them at ordinary times!"

"Master calm down."

"Let me find out this matter, and if I find out who it is, I will punish it severely!"

"Subordinates take orders."
