Meeting Chu Guannan's puzzled gaze, Shen Qingwu explained, "Perhaps we can infer whether he is still alive based on his birth date and old belongings, and if so, where he is."
Chu Guannan shook his head. "No, I only know his name is Miao Ze and he's from Liangzhou. I don't know anything more than that."
He knew his life story when he was very young, and he also knew that his mother was obsessed with his biological father, but he always felt that the man was too useless, so he was not too curious about his biological father.
Shen Qingwu reached out his hand from the bath towel and gently patted Chu Guannan's shoulder, his silence speaking louder than words.
"You helped me a lot." Chu Guannan picked up the person, carried him sideways, pushed open the door of the compartment, and returned to the room.
"If I hadn't met you, I would have needed to plan for a few more years to achieve victory in one fell swoop." In the dark night, Chu Guannan looked at Shen Qingwu with his dark eyes and used his internal force to help her dry her long hair.
Shen Qingwu closed her eyes comfortably and leaned back on him.
"Qingwu, you are my lucky star." He carefully smoothed her long hair, and his deep eyes looked at the mirror with deep affection as they saw the two of them almost cuddling together.
"Then how do you want to repay me?" Shen Qingwu leaned against him and asked softly.
In fact, Chu Guannan is also her lucky star. If she had not met Chu Guannan as soon as she arrived in the human world, her cultivation path as a mortal would not have been so smooth.
"Isn't it enough to pledge my love to you?" Chu Guannan chuckled.
"It's no longer new." Shen Qingwu raised his hands and put them around his waist.
Chu Guannan took a deep breath and said, "You are tired today, I won't bother you."
At first, he climbed over the wall every night to improve his internal strength, and he was also attracted by the woman's soft body. After a long time, he fell in love with her.
Chu Guannan has been clear-headed since he was a child and can quickly and clearly realize what he wants most.
"The prince has sent people to deal with the second brother." He held her in his arms and lay on the bed, patting her back gently.
Shen Qingwu likes someone to pat her on the back. Whenever she is with Chu Guannan, she seems to return to her original form.
Unfortunately, she can no longer transform into her original form.
"Letting the second prince go to rescue the disaster is the emperor's way of making up to the imperial concubine, and he also hopes that the second prince can make a contribution." Chu Guannan said softly.
"The Crown Prince will definitely take action. The Empress now only has a small amount of face left with the Emperor, while the Imperial Concubine is the most favored by the Emperor. The Second Prince is a huge threat to the Crown Prince." Shen Qingwu said with his eyes closed, "Will you take this opportunity to take action?"
I was originally wanting to sleep in a very comfortable position, but when I mentioned these things, my mind started working again and I felt much less sleepy.
"It's not easy to get rid of the second brother, but we have to do what we have to do. The rift between the emperor and the imperial concubine is not big enough." Chu Guannan said.
"Perhaps you have never thought about it. The emperor has never thought of letting anyone inherit the throne." Shen Qingwu sneered.
"Chu Guandong, the crown prince from birth; Chu Guanxi, the son born to the imperial concubine who accompanied the emperor during his time in the palace; the beloved third prince Chu Guannan, born to the concubine he stole and loved; and the young and lovable fourth prince Chu Guanbei. They all seem to be outstanding individuals, but will the emperor really pass the throne to any one of you?"
Shen Qingwu opened her eyes and looked at Chu Guannan. She smiled and shook her head, "No, he would rather sit on that chair forever and control the world forever."
"You know about the missing people and is it related to the palace?" Chu Guannan was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that she could calculate this.
"It seems you knew it a long time ago." Shen Qingwu sat up.
"Young bodies are always coveted." Chu Guannan crossed his hands under his head. "It happened at least seven years ago. I ran into him once by chance seven years ago. After that, I hunted him down and only found a few clues. The emperor then made me a king. I didn't get any substantial evidence at all."
The palace was full of the emperor's people, and he was granted a prince's residence to live outside the palace early on, and his opportunities to return to the palace became fewer and fewer.
The palace is not a general's residence where one can enter by climbing over the wall. The emperor employs many martial arts masters to guard it for him.
"Zheng Hong has been by his side since he was a child, and he can't just go into that place whenever he wants." Chu Guannan frowned.
"Xie Yuening must have been held hostage by him, which is why he proposed at the court meeting that Xie Yuening also take charge of the suburban camp. She might have been dragged into this situation."
"They wanted you to be the Grand Historian at the court meeting. I think they have bad intentions. You have been a bit flamboyant these days. You are good at fortune-telling, which is a treasure to the emperor." Chu Guannan looked at her with a smile. "Do you want me to help you find a way to resign as the Grand Historian?"
Shen Qingwu stood up and took out the death-proof gold medal from the secret compartment at the head of the bed. "I've taken all the things. I can't resign."
Chu Guannan picked it up and looked at it in the dim candlelight, and it was indeed real.
"If he asked you to help him do something, would you help him?"
"Will you uphold justice?" Shen Qingwu looked at him with his legs crossed.
Chu Guannan blinked and straightened his expression. "Of course, I will exhaust my life's strength to eradicate the emperor's evil deeds. If I can't do it, I will definitely cultivate someone like me, for generations to come, until they are gone."
Shen Qingwu smiled, "Chu Guannan, don't forget your original intention."
…
Shen Qingtang waited in the courtyard on purpose tonight, but she didn't see clearly who entered Shen Qingwu's courtyard. However, she was sure that it was Shen Qingwu's tacit consent, because before that, she heard the sound of the door closing when the person in Shen Qingwu's courtyard left.
But Shen Qingfeng in the yard next to Shen Qingwu couldn't sleep even more.
So many things happened after I came back. I couldn't sleep because of the headache for my two sisters, but suddenly I found someone entering my sister's yard. It looked like a man, and the two wolves didn't make any noise.
This made Shen Qingfeng, who was about to rush forward, stop.
He looked up at the courtyard wall with a complicated expression. Shen Qingwu was the most thoughtful and did not need protection. Apart from the slight sound of a door closing in the next yard, no sound of fighting could be heard.
He stood alone in the night for a long time, and went to his study to get some wine, but found that several jars were missing. He then thought about how Shen Qingwu always had a wine glass next to him when they had dinner together every night these days.
"Ah..." Shen Qingfeng sighed helplessly, "Mother, I am an unfilial son. I failed to protect my sister."
He knocked on Shen Qinghe's door with the wine in his hand.
Shen Qinghe did not have such a heavy concern as him. He was reading in the study at this moment. In the past two days, he had collected many books about ghosts and monsters.
"Brother?" Shen Qinghe was a little surprised when he saw the tall figure standing at the door. "It's so late, why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"I can't sleep. Too many things have happened in the past two days." Shen Qingfeng shook his head and went into the room. "Are you still reading?"
As he spoke, he picked up a book on the table. Seeing the title "Shan Hai Jing Ghost Records", he turned around and looked at Shen Qinghe in surprise, "You haven't given up yet?"
