Since the night watch, Chu Ye has become more and more tolerant of Xie Qi's outrageous behavior.

At this moment, Chu Ye Ze had not yet left the court. Xie Qi was eating the emperor's cakes in Chu Ye Ze's bedroom, sitting leisurely by the window waiting for Chu Ye Ze to return.

At this moment, a white dove flew to the window and refused to leave for a long time. Xie Qi was puzzled. He looked at the pigeon, reached out his hand and caught it easily. After careful observation, Xie Qi found something unusual.

Then he took a piece of paper from the pigeon's leg and unfolded it. It said: "Come to see me at midnight tonight."

Xie Qi couldn't help but frown and muttered, "Who is this? There's not even a signature, and they asked me to meet him for no apparent reason. What a boss!"

948, who was standing by, looked at Xie Qi's puzzled expression and couldn't help but roll his eyes. Then he said helplessly, "This is given to you by the Regent."

At this moment, Chu Ye, who had quietly stood behind Xie Qi, suddenly asked, "What are you looking at?"

Xie Qi was startled and turned around abruptly. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Chu Ye Ze. He handed the note to Chu Ye Ze and explained, "The Regent gave it to me, saying that I should meet him tonight."

Chu Ye was a little surprised after hearing this. He didn't expect Xie Qi to tell him so bluntly. What surprised him even more was Xie Qi's next sentence.

Xie Qi said to Chu Ye in a helpless and aggrieved tone, "Master, I may not be able to accompany you tonight."

Chu Ye Ze's face turned red in an instant. He coughed lightly, trying to hide his embarrassment, and defended himself, "Who needs your company? I'm busy." After he said that, he turned and left, and Xie Qi followed closely behind.

Although Chu Ye Ze's voice contained a hint of stubbornness, it was difficult to conceal the joy in it.

Late at night, the moonlight shone like water on the earth, but Xie Qi had no intention of appreciating the beauty. Relying on his vague memory, he finally found the Regent's Palace. The entire mansion exuded a gloomy and terrifying atmosphere, making people shudder.

Xie Qi cautiously followed an attendant into the mansion, walked through a long corridor, and stopped in front of a single room.

Inside the room, the Regent sat on the chair in front, holding the teacup in both hands, gently stroking the lid and taking a sip of tea from time to time.

Xie Qi knelt respectfully on the side for nearly half an hour, but the Regent never even looked at him, as if he was just a transparent person.

"Damn old man, drink, drink, drink until you die." Xie Qi lowered his head and cursed inwardly. "Did you really think I wanted to come see you? Isn't it nice to be with my wife?" You forced me to come, and now you're pretending.

Just as Xie Qi was cursing inwardly, the Regent suddenly spoke up, "You enjoy the splendor and wealth in the palace. Have you forgotten who your master is?"

Hearing this, Xie Qi quickly lowered his head and replied, "I dare not. I will always remember it."

The Regent sneered and said in a stern tone, "Oh, so you still remember! Then why has so much time passed without any news coming back? What use do I have for you?"

After saying this, the Regent was extremely angry and raised his hand to smash the cup in his hand against Xie Qi's forehead. There was a crisp sound of "bang" and the cup hit Xie Qi's forehead hard, cutting his forehead in an instant and blood flowing down his cheek.

Xie Qi didn't dare to be negligent. He hurriedly bent down, his forehead touching the ground, hiding the look in his eyes that wanted to fight with the other party. He explained, "Your Highness, please calm down! There are many spies in the palace. If I am not careful, I will arouse suspicion. Moreover, the emperor is very wary of me. I need to be extremely cautious with every step..."

"But please rest assured, Your Majesty. The Emperor now has complete trust in me."

Hearing this, the Regent's mood finally improved. A satisfied smile appeared on his face, and he asked, "Have you completed what I asked you to do?"

Xie Qi quickly replied, "In reply to Your Majesty, the Emperor has already taken this month's medicine on time."

"Really?" The Regent glanced at Xie Qi coldly, then said, "I understand you wouldn't dare not do it. After all, you've seen people being tortured by poisonous insects with your own eyes."

"Okay, go back. Remember to keep an eye on him for me."

"yes."

Xie Qi walked out of the Regent's Palace and stood under a tree. The wind blew on his forehead and he suddenly felt a sharp pain. He subconsciously raised his hand to wipe it, and his hand was covered with quickly drying blood.

"Fuck! 948! Is there a mirror? I won't be disfigured, will I be left with scars? 948, please show me! How can I seduce my wife if I'm disfigured? My handsome face! You're dead, you old bastard!"

For Xie Qi, who is obsessed with looks, having a scar on his face would really kill him.

948 looked at the fingernail-sized cut on Xie Qi's forehead and said speechlessly, "If the host is really afraid of scarring, the system recommends a scar removal ointment that works instantly and leaves no traces. It only costs 100 points."

Hearing this, Xie Qi couldn't help but say: "I only have 60 points, what can I exchange for!"

"Forget it, tell me where the military talisman is hidden?"

"Uh... Host, the system doesn't have this function. But host, you can use your points to exchange for props."

"Didn't there still a golden finger given in the last world?"

"Host, you didn't have any points in the last world. That was a benefit for newbies. From now on, the world will not provide newbie benefits. You can only exchange points for anything you want."

Hearing this, Xie Qi suppressed his feelings of being tricked by the system and continued to ask, "Then are there any tools for tracking items?"

"There's a feature perfect for hosts with low points, called '100-meter Tracking, One Thread'. Because the tracking distance is relatively short, it only requires 30 points. It's also very simple to use. Simply enter the item you're looking for, and if it's within 100 meters, a thread will appear. Just follow it and you'll find it."
