Xiao Yanyun finally went to class and the government affairs were not too busy, so he was able to spend some time alone with Shen Qiuchi, but he was interrupted by this group of good-for-nothings again!

Xiao Qi was furious.

Shen Qiuchi returned to the palace, sat on a chair, closed his eyes tiredly, and pressed his eyebrows.

A few days ago, Prime Minister Mu's wife hosted a banquet for everyone to appreciate the newly blossomed winter plum blossoms. As a result, someone accidentally encountered the servant who burned the letters.

The servant was holding several letters between Prime Minister Mu and the enemy country.

Jiang Huai was also present at the time and immediately had Prime Minister Mu arrested and all his family members placed under house arrest in the Mu Mansion.

The Mu family members were waiting leisurely in the hall. Since there was no evidence of treason, they could only put the person under house arrest temporarily.

Prime Minister Mu came to the palace and said that there was something fishy about the matter and that this group of people wanted to kill him. He hoped that the emperor and empress could protect him and his wife.

After that, Prime Minister Mu settled his family and went to the prison of the Military Education Department with his wife.

Before we finished our work here, news came that Shen Qingxu had been assassinated.

It seems that those people know that the Thousand Machines Technique is in her hands and they can no longer hold back!

A hint of coldness flashed across Shen Qiuchi's eyes.

These bastards in the dark dared to touch her only sister! They were really courting death!

"Is Yanyun back?" Shen Qiuchi looked towards the door and asked Xiao Qi who was massaging his shoulders behind him.

"Not yet. I guess he won't be back until the evening." Xiao Qi picked up Shen Qiuchi from the chair, then sat on the chair himself and let Shen Qiuchi sit on his lap.

Shen Qiuchi wanted to refuse, but seeing Xiao Qi looking hurt and aggrieved, she compromised.

Xiao Qi buried his head in the crook of Shen Qiuchi's neck and patted her back gently, not knowing whether he was comforting himself or Shen Qiuchi.

"Leave Qingxu's matter to your husband. I will have people look for the hideout of those people and catch them all. I will never let her get hurt in the slightest. I promise that you, Qingxu, and Yanyun will be fine. You are the only ones around me!"

"It is estimated that there are more than one group of forces. They are coming for the Thousand Machine Skills."

"Don't worry, the palace is heavily guarded. Even if they have great abilities, they can't take it away!"

Shen Qiuchi nodded. She was not worried that the Thousand Machine Techniques would be stolen.

She was worried about all the people in Daliang.

Over the years, she has used the Thousand Machine Secrets to create important mechanical devices that benefit the country and the people, vigorously developed the military, education, economy, and medical care, and made Daliang the most powerful empire.

But at the same time, Daliang has become a thorn in everyone's side.

Rumor has it that whoever masters the Thousand Machines Secret will rule the world.

They couldn't do anything to Daliang, so they wanted to start with Qianji Jue.

Shen Qiuchi has been observing their movements over the years, but she never expected that they could act secretly under her surveillance.

She really underestimated them!

"By the way, how's your investigation going on with the identities of Lin Yao and Lin Tiao that I asked you to investigate?" In this world, the only person who dares to order the emperor to investigate things is Shen Qiuchi.

"We found out. Lin Yao's real name is Yueying. She was the princess of a small country called Yue Kingdom that was destroyed many years ago."

"That Lin Tiao is a maid she picked up on the road."

"Their goal is to get the Imperial City Order from Qingxu and the others, and then work together to steal the Thousand Machine Skills and recover the Moon Kingdom."

"Moon Country? Haha." Shen Qiuchi sneered, "There are still people alive."

"Do you know the Moon Country?"

"Princess Yuehua was extremely beautiful back then. This Lin Yao should be her niece."

"She wants to sneak into the palace."

"Since she wants to sneak into the palace so much, let her get what she wants."

Shen Qiuchi nodded in response, patted Xiao Qi's head, and came up with a plan in mind.
