"Miss, you're awake."
Chunzhi has been staying by Jiang Yuanxi's side.
Jiang Yuanxi got up and slipped out of bed.
"Hungry."
Chunzhi helped Jiang Yuanxi put on her clothes: "The kitchen has prepared delicious food, you can eat after you wash up."
Jiang Yuanxi nodded dazedly.
Sure enough, this night is not something that anyone can endure.
Even if I got enough sleep, I still felt a little uncomfortable.
For example, my eyes are still a little dry.
When it was time to eat, Chunzhi would feed him with her own hands.
"Yuan Xi, someone from the Imperial Observatory has arrived." Jiang Yuanwu walked in from outside.
"Imperial Observatory?" Jiang Yuanxi looked up and thought about it.
It was as if he discovered that he still had a position in the Imperial Observatory.
Jiang Yuanwu shook his head: "You forgot that you are now the director of the Imperial Observatory."
Jiang Yuanxi's eyes lit up.
That's what happened.
"Let him in."
Pei Zhengyi was standing outside in his official uniform.
He looked at the environment of the marquis' mansion with envy.
"She is worthy of being the most beloved princess of His Majesty. Look at the layout of the Jiang family. I'm afraid that besides the imperial palace, the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery is the most luxurious." Gong Wenbai, an official beside him, whispered.
Pei Zhengyi turned his head and glanced at him.
"Several members of the Jiang family are officials in the court, and all of them have made greater contributions than you. Why are you acting like a woman and being jealous? Don't you see that with just your few achievements, do you deserve it?"
"Not even me!"
Although he was envious, he was just simply admiring her.
Gong Wenbai is a new official who wants to suppress loyal officials. Pei Zhengyi will never abandon a loyal official.
The little princess exorcises demons and is Yufeng's lucky star.
In his opinion, the palace is not worthy for the little princess to live in.
Of course, he only dared to say this in his heart.
The official beside him immediately lowered his head.
"I am too narrow-minded," Gong Wenbai apologized.
Pei Zhengyi didn't argue with him any further.
"Please come this way, sirs." Chunzhi stretched out her hand and pointed in a direction.
Pei Zhengyi and several people from the Imperial Observatory hurriedly followed.
"Your humble servant Pei Zhengyi greets the princess."
Jiang Yuanxi raised his hand and motioned for him to get up.
"How is the Imperial Observatory doing recently?"
As the director of the Imperial Observatory, Jiang Yuanxi had hardly been there many times, so he felt guilty.
Pei Zhengyi: "Princess, don't worry. The emperor now makes great use of the Imperial Observatory. Our days at the Imperial Observatory are much better than before."
In the past, I had to consider the moods of other officials when eating, but now, I don’t have to do that at all.
All the officials in the court were polite to them.
All this is thanks to the princess.
If the princess hadn’t been so powerful, she would have made His Majesty believe that monsters really existed in this world.
His Majesty even built a palace for the skulls that the princess brought back for him.
Special storage for these things.
Jiang Yuanxi nodded: "That's good."
Pei Zhengyi smiled and said, "Princess, don't worry. The Qianqiu Palace that His Majesty built in the palace is also partly contributed by our Imperial Observatory."
"Qianqiu Palace?"
Jiang Yuanxi was puzzled: "What is that?"
Jiang Yuanwu smiled and said, "His Majesty has stored the skulls of the ancestors of various tribes that you brought back to him. The Qianqiu Palace is specifically used to store those things."
Whenever envoys from other countries come, Your Majesty always shows off.
I'm afraid that now, other countries all know that there are skulls of ancestors of various ethnic groups in the Yufeng Palace.
"oh oh."
Jiang Yuanxi suddenly realized: "What a pity, the demon ancestor has no skull, otherwise the Emperor's Qianqiu Palace would have one more thing to admire."
Pei Zhengyi suddenly remembered something important.
He said sternly: "Princess, I came here to ask for something."
After Jiang Yuanxi finished eating, Chunzhi patiently wiped her mouth.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Yuanxi washed his hands.
The servant came up and took away the things on the table.
A few more pots of tea were served.
"Please have some tea, sir." Chunzhi personally served tea to Pei Zhengyi.
"Thank you, girl."
When it was Gong Wenbai's turn, Chunzhi simply passed him and walked towards the next adult.
Gong Wenbai's face turned blue and white.
Pei Zhengyi sighed secretly.
Should!
Pei Zhengyi picked up the tea and took a sip.
"Princess, this is what happened."
"Three months ago, many people suddenly disappeared in the neighboring county and no trace could be found. However, two months later, those people suddenly appeared in a deserted mountain, but they were all gone."
"This matter has become a big deal. His Majesty sent people over there, and we went over to take a look."
Jiang Yuanwu interrupted: "But this is unusual?"
"Yes!" Pei Zhengyi continued, "We found out when we got there that many of these people had lost their internal organs."
"Some people lost their livers, some lost their hearts."
"Oh." Pei Zhengyi couldn't continue, "Anyway, there is always something missing from every corpse."
At first we thought it was a serial killer and the murderer was at large.
But in the end, we discovered that there was demonic energy in these people’s wounds.
Chunzhi stood aside, listening with fear.
She had heard before that some monsters fed on the flesh of mortals.
Could it be that this is true?
Jiang Yuanxi: "How's the investigation going?"
Pei Zhengyi sighed: "We can only find out that there is an evil spirit, it seems to be a fox demon. We chased the evil spirit and arrived in Shengjing, but it suddenly disappeared."
"In the past half month, we have searched all over Shengjing, but we still can't find the hiding place of the monster. On the contrary, many cases have occurred."
If this matter is not resolved, His Majesty will definitely start with the Imperial Observatory.
