"If they were all eliminated, I'm afraid there would be few people available for use in the spare time." Jing Yuchen couldn't help but sigh.
Ni Yueshan stood aside and responded, "It's hard for you."
Jing Yuchen chuckled and helplessly changed the subject: "Okay, go out of the palace and see Xue'er. I will handle the affairs in the palace. When I can get away, I will go find you outside the palace!"
Ni Yueshan nodded obediently: "Okay."
When Ni Yueshan left the palace, he naturally had to take Duan Gouqiong with him. Not to mention Duan Gouqiong, even Shao Lecheng was unwilling to stay in the palace any longer.
Ni Yueshan couldn't help but say, "As a man with some skills, you don't even want to help the prince. Shao Lecheng, where did you learn this lazy skill from?"
Shao Lecheng rolled his eyes at Ni Yueshan and said, "If you think a man should help the Regent, then you can just treat me as a woman."
Duan Gouqiong was originally holding hands with Shao Lecheng. Hearing this, Duan Gouqiong glared: "You... are so lazy, haha, you are a bit like me, I like it!"
Afterwards, the three of them arrived at the house where Mr. Xu lived. If you ask how they met Mr. Xu by chance, you can only say that it was Mr. Xu who arranged it himself.
When they were preparing to move Xue'er and Ke'er away, Mr. Xu himself appeared.
Mr. Xu is indeed a mysterious existence. If he wants a child, people like them can't stop him at all.
So instead of making useless obstructions, it is better to hand over the child obediently and let him take care of it without worrying about anything happening to the child.
When Duan Gouqiong and Ni Yueshan saw the children crawling on the ground, they each stepped forward and picked up one.
At this time, all that was thrown around Mr. Xu were wine jugs. He was still holding a wine jug in his hand. Because he was drunk, he was sleeping soundly with his mouth open.
He didn't react when someone came in. Originally, Ni Yueshan thought that leaving the child here would be absolutely safe. No one would be able to find the child, and no martial arts master would be able to snatch the child away.
Now that they have come in smoothly, Ni Yueshan feels that he has overthought and made a mistake.
Shao Lecheng looked down at Mr. Xu and couldn't help but sigh: "At the beginning, I felt that Mr. Xu's appearance was very familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere. Now I look at it carefully, and then I will try to draw it carefully. Is it true that I still can't draw his appearance?"
Ni Yueshan had done this before, so even without Shao Lecheng saying anything, Ni Yueshan felt the same way.
"Doesn't he like your wine? You can use it to win him over and force him to reveal some secrets. You can ask him where he's from, where he's going, where the rare treasures he carries came from, and who his teacher is."
"Is there any secret that can teach us how to get rich overnight?" Ni Yueshan blinked his eyes, and his expression seemed to be very expectant.
Shao Lecheng coughed aside and said, "I think this... isn't a good idea. Why not ask, is there really a medicine that can bring the dead back to life? Is there really an elixir of immortality?"
Shao Lecheng's ambition is not on the same level as Ni Yueshan's.
Ni Yueshan was holding Xue'er, and Duan Gouqiong beside him was also ready to take Ke'er away, but Mr. Xu, who had been asleep and completely ignored by them, opened his eyes at this moment.
"Three of you, take the child away. At least, tell Xu, right?"
The voice came from behind, sounding joking, but not drunk at all.
I was clearly drunk and fell asleep just now.
Ni Yueshan and Shao Lecheng looked behind them, and Ni Yueshan took the initiative to speak: "We felt that Mr. Xu was not an ordinary person, so we took people away. Even if Mr. Xu didn't witness it, he knew it clearly, so he didn't say hello..."
Although Mr. Xu heard what Ni Yueshan said, he was not impressed.
He said solemnly, "It's not that exaggerated. Next time you come, remember to bring some wine."
After saying this, he closed his eyes and fell asleep on the ground. He was so sleepy that he didn't even want to choose a place.
Ni Yueshan has always been curious about the identity of Old Xu. Her existence is already special enough, so could there be someone more special than her?
People from the future traveled here?
Ni Yueshan frowned, thinking about something. Shao Lecheng beside him said, "Yueshan, are you leaving?"
Ni Yueshan came back to his senses and nodded.
At the Regent's Mansion, Qingluan and Qingfeng heard that Ni Yueshan had returned, and hurried to the door to greet him. Seeing Xue'er safe and sound in Ni Yueshan's arms, they immediately reached out and hugged her in their arms.
Ni Yueshan said, "Yesterday, you two were responsible for protecting the entire mansion. Thank you for your hard work."
The two immediately responded: "Servants, it's our duty!"
Xue'er was held in Qingfeng's arms. Although it was a different person, she didn't cry at all. She just looked around with a curious expression. When she got tired of looking, she yawned continuously.
I had no idea what kind of night I had spent.
"Princess, you've worked hard all night. Come in quickly!" A servant invited Ni Yueshan. Ni Yueshan walked inside, saying as she walked, "Everyone has been frightened all night. Now you can stop what you are doing and rest."
Because the ministers witnessed the palace coup with their own eyes during the night palace banquet, they all spent the night in fear, so there was no morning court the next day. After returning home, some of them went to catch up on their sleep, while others completely suffered from insomnia.

"The Regent rebelled, and the young emperor disappeared. This is too much of a coincidence. Who else could it be if not the Regent? Yet he flatly denies it. Is he deliberately trying to use the young emperor's disappearance to seize power, or perhaps usurp the throne?"
