The old emperor was happy now and asked Eunuch Lian to help Qiu Shanxi up while she knelt to express her gratitude.
"Alright, I told you not to kneel down at every turn."
"I decree that from now on, no matter who you meet, you don't need to kneel down!"
Qiu Shanxi was grateful and burst into tears.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The old emperor looked at Mo Ziyuan again.
"Mr. Mo, I'll leave this Tianshan lily of the valley to you."
"Just take care of the research! We must cure the prince."
Mo Ziyuan withdrew his gaze from the girl and bowed to the old emperor.
"I obey your order."
"Then I will go down and prepare the prescription right away." He was too lazy to stand here and watch this group of people acting.
The old emperor nodded.
"Okay, go ahead."
Mo Ziyuan held the white jade box containing the Tianshan lily of the valley and walked out without looking back.
I thought to myself, I can finally go back to sleep. Whatever comes up, I’ll talk about it tomorrow.
The old emperor winked at the young eunuch behind him. The young eunuch nodded and quickly followed Mo Ziyuan away.
Qiu Shanxi's eyes flickered slightly, and he pretended not to see anything. He stood up tremblingly and bowed.
"It's getting late, I'll take my leave now."
"I won't disturb your Majesty and the Crown Prince to rest."
The old emperor was indeed a little tired and nodded!
"Okay, come to the palace and accompany me another day. Tell me what you saw and heard outside."
"Yes! I will tell you everything I know."
The old emperor waved his hand, "Alright! Go ahead!"
After Qiu Shanxi kowtowed to express her gratitude, she was supported by a young eunuch and a young girl and walked out of the side hall.
Not long after they walked out, Qiu Shanxi sent the eunuch away, leaving only him and the girl.
Qiu Shanxi's trembling stopped and the crutches left the ground.
The girl's originally timid expression immediately turned cold.
She snorted coldly and said, "The old emperor of the Great Sheng Dynasty is no more than this."
Qiu Shanxi glanced at her coldly.
"You are still in the palace! Be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall."
If Pang Long were still alive, when he saw the woman in front of him, he would definitely find out that she was Zhou Meir, the favorite concubine of King Nan.
Zhou Mei'er snorted coldly and stopped talking. She continued to support Qiu Shanxi and walked out of the palace.
When they were almost at the palace gate, a little eunuch suddenly jumped out from the darkness.
Zhou Mei'er was startled and was about to react when she was held down by Qiu Shanxi.
"Don't panic, we're on the same side!"
The young eunuch looked around and confirmed that no one was around before he carefully approached Qiu Shanxi and whispered a few words.
Qiu Shanxi's originally kind face froze in an instant, and he nodded.
"You've grown wings! You want to fly solo!"
"What a pity! He doesn't know that I have eaten more salt than he has eaten rice!"
Qiu Shanxi's kind face returned to its original state, but the words she spoke were extremely cold.
"I originally thought that he was wrongly accused! It seems that it is all true! Fortunately! It's not too late!"
"If you make a mistake, you should be wiped out!"
The young eunuch lowered his head and said nothing.
Qiu Shanxi waved her hand, "Alright! Go back! Be careful!"
The young eunuch nodded and quickly disappeared into the darkness again.
Zhou Mei'er frowned. She recognized that this little eunuch was the one who was beside the old emperor just now.
Qiu Shanxi said to Zhou Meir indifferently, "Let's go! Leave the palace!" It was obvious that she had no intention of explaining to Zhou Meir.
Zhou Meir's eyes flickered and she nodded.
She supported Qiu Shanxi and continued to walk out of the palace. After she left the palace, she got on the carriage and left quickly.
The three people hiding outside the palace gate, Yu Jinzhi, Xie Mingjue and Wen Hao, had complicated expressions in their eyes when they saw Qiu Shanxi's carriage leaving.
"When Mr. Qiu came, I felt that something bad was going to happen." Wen Hao frowned.
"I have just sent a pigeon to inform Mo Bai."
Yu Jinzhi also frowned and said, "I hope he comes back soon. I always feel that Mr. Qiu must not have told Mo Bai that he came at this time!"
Xie Mingjue sighed, "The decree just came out from the palace, saying that Elder Qiu has been promoted to the second-rank supervisory attendant!"
"This... the timing is just too coincidental."
"One cannot help but doubt his intentions!"
All three of them were silent.
More than ten years ago, when Qiu Shanxi was at the peak of his career, he suddenly left Bian Jing and returned to his hometown, Chengdu.
After more than ten years, it suddenly came back! This is very strange no matter how you look at it.
Moreover, as soon as he came back, the old emperor granted him the title of the second rank official! This shows how capable he was.
They all began to feel a little worried.
Can Qiu Mobai really escape from his grasp?
Suddenly, a loud thunder sounded in the sky.
The three of them shuddered in unison.
"It feels like something big is about to happen. We'd better be careful." Yu Jinzhi frowned.
All three nodded.
Wen Hao thought for a moment and said, "In a few days, I will leave Bianjing City with Lord Jiang and his family!"
"Let me tell you in advance!"
Xie Mingjue and Yu Jinzhi were both surprised.
"In such a hurry? What are you going to do?"
Wen Hao also frowned, "Master Jiang said that he was going back to his hometown to worship his ancestors!"
"You haven't even married Miss Jiang yet, why are you offering sacrifices to your ancestors?" Xie Mingjue raised his eyebrows.
"Master Jiang said that after the ancestor worship is over, come back and get married!"
Yu Jinzhi nodded, "That's fine! Anyway, your wedding date has been set, it's only a little over a month away."
The three of them talked for a few more moments, then got on their carriages and returned home.
…
Qiu Mobai looked at the butterfly dancing in the palm of his hand and instantly remembered what Qingqing had said to him.
"Brother Qiu, look at this kind of butterfly."
“It will give you an early warning!”
