Dressed as the teacher of the Black Lotus Emperor

The air was stagnant for a moment, Shen Qingzhuo looked into the dark eyes of the little apprentice, feeling a little guilty for no reason.

"Ahem..." Mr. Shen coughed twice, touching his lips, "Then what..."

"Who is he?" Xiao Shen preemptively pointed at the little eunuch kneeling on the ground and asked, "Why have I never seen him?"

Shen Qingzhuo was at a loss for words for a moment, he really didn't know the name of the newly appointed secret guard, so he couldn't be called an assassin, could he?

So he turned his head and asked, "What's your name?"

Dark Guard: "I don't have a name."

"Nonsense!" Xiao Shen stared at him and asked sharply, "Who the hell are you and what are you doing here?"

He had never been so hostile to a person for no reason, but the moment he entered the door, he saw Mr. bending over and touching this person's face!

An outrageous anger surged in his chest instantly, Mr. has never touched anyone other than him, how could Mr. touch other people's faces so intimately?

"Okay, let me tell you." Shen Qingzhuo explained concisely, "This is my new secret guard."

Xiao Shen: "What dark guard?"

Shen Qingzhuo turned to the hidden guard again, "This is Your Highness Seventh, your other...master."

The dark guard replied without hesitation: "Yes, master."

"I don't need any hidden guards." Xiao Shen put on a handsome face, "What is his background, sir, have you found out?"

Shen Qingzhu: "Well..."

He chose to go first and close the door tightly.

The dark guard said expressionlessly: "I have already died once, from now on, I will only recognize the master."

Xiao Shen frowned, and was about to continue questioning, but was pulled aside by Mr.

"Let me tell you the truth, you have to keep calm." Shen Qingzhuo took the little apprentice's hand and comforted him in advance, "Can it be done?"

Xiao Shen had an intuition that what he was about to say was not a good thing, but he still responded, "Okay."

Shen Qingzhuo: "Do you still remember the assassin in the assassination of Concubine Yuan? When I was interrogating him, I promised that as long as he confessed the mastermind behind the scenes, I would let him out."

"What does this have to do with what we are talking about now?" Xiao Shen looked at him puzzled.

"Don't worry, the relationship will come soon." Shen Qingzhuo said unhurriedly, "Because I promised to let him go, so later, I found a dying prisoner in the prison to replace him."

The more Xiao Shen listened, the more something was wrong, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, "It's him!"

Shen Qingzhuo nodded: "The matter is of great importance, and only the three of us know about it."

Xiao Shen gritted his back molars, broke free from him, and fiercely threw himself at the kneeling guard on the ground, punching him down to the ground.

The instinct he had trained for a long time made him want to fight back, but the words his master said just now sounded in his mind, and the dark guard could only stand still and take the punch forcefully.

One cheek became swollen rapidly, the cheek was bitten by the teeth, and blood flowed from the corner of the lip.

"Xiaoqi!" Shen Qingzhuo reacted, and grabbed the boy's arm, "Don't do it!"

"He hurt you!" Xiao Shen turned around and growled in disbelief, "He made you so painful that you couldn't sleep well for more than half a month, yet you still protected him!"

Shen Qingzhuo was stunned by the yelling, and couldn't help but recall the day when Chunsou was assassinated, the boy knelt in front of him and cried so sadly, his whole body was trembling with fear.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingzhuo softened his voice and explained softly: "He has already suffered eighteen punishments in the imperial prison, which is enough to offset the sword he stabbed me with."

Xiao Shen's thin lips were tightly pursed, his eyes darkened, "That won't work either!"

Whoever hurts Mr. will be killed by a thousand swords!

"Listen to me, Xiaoqi." Shen Qingzhuo said seriously, "In this assassination case, he is not even a pawn. He is just a sword used by princelings to kill people. He can throw it away when it is used up."

Xiao Shen's chest heaved violently twice, but he didn't respond.

"A long time ago, my master told you that in this palace, many people could not help themselves to life and death." Shen Qingzhuo held the young man's still thin shoulders and guided him patiently, "I took a sword innocently. Aren't you annoyed? But I won't vent my anger on this little assassin, because I can identify the real enemy."

After these words, the angry teenager gradually regained his reason to run away from home.

Shen Qingzhuo let go of his hand, "He is willing to serve me and repay my life-saving grace, and we are in the middle of employing people, so I keep him. The reason is as simple as that."

Xu is the word "we", which clearly divides the boundaries between near and far. The boy's stiff body relaxed a little, and he compromised: "It's fine for him to stay, but he must pass my test."

Shen Qingzhuo smiled lightly, and replied, "Yes. As I said, you are also his little master."

Xiao Shen said angrily again: "I'm not young anymore!"

"Okay, okay, you are big, super big." Shen Qingzhuo nodded perfunctorily, and went to check the situation of the hidden guard.

While the two were talking, the dark guard had been sitting on the ground, not even wiping the blood from the corners of his lips.

Shen Qingzhuo leaned over and held out a hand, "Get up."

The dark guard stared blankly at his hand, and just about to put it on, an afterimage flashed by, and he was forcibly pulled up by a violent force.

"Pretend to be pitiful." Xiao Shen let go of his hand angrily.

Pretending to be pitiful is his privilege in front of Mr. No one can take it away.

***

For the next few days, Xiao Shen was like a loyal puppy guarding the house, guarding the husband's side whenever he had time, in case the damned assassin had any other intentions.

However, the dark guard interpreted the word "dark" to the extreme.He always hides in the dark, like a real shadow, as long as Shen Qingzhuo doesn't call him, he won't appear in front of the master.

Shen Qingzhuo felt very relieved, and became more and more satisfied with his decision to keep the hidden guards.

At the same time, he also began to plan to cultivate his own power.

For this weak "airborne soldier", the "big red man" in front of the Holy One, the Jinyi guards of Beizhen Fusi did not dare to express their dissatisfaction with him publicly, and they probably scolded him several times behind their backs.

He doesn't care, as long as these people don't scold him in front of him, and don't let it into his ears, he can pretend that he doesn't know anything, as long as we all get things done together.

The affairs of Beizhen Fusi are divided into two parts, Shengjing and various local state capitals.Since Shen Qingzhuo couldn't leave Shengjing, he carried out investigations, arrests, and interrogations on a daily basis to monitor infidelity, theft, rape, and confidential events among the officials in Shengjing, and then secretly reported to Emperor Guangxi.

Therefore, ever since he joined Beizhen Fusi, Emperor Guangxi summoned him more and more frequently, and he became more and more familiar with the several eunuchs of the Supervisor of Rituals.

Dayong had a supervisor of ceremonies, who was in charge of approving reds. Generally speaking, he was the emperor's chief steward, who was used to check and balance the cabinet officials.

Mr. Su is the eunuch in charge of the chief inspector of ceremonies, and there are two eunuchs holding pens under him. Among them, Pan Chong, the chief eunuch holding pens, is his godson and is also in charge of Dongchang.

This person looks at the dishes, is exquisite in all aspects, and is extremely smooth and thoughtful in handling affairs. The only breakthrough is lust.Although he is a eunuch, he has lost all the things he used to do things, but it doesn't stop him from being pretty.

There are rumors that, because of his inhumanity, Eunuch Pan used endless methods of torturing court ladies and eunuchs, and almost none of the people who entered his room came out in a thorough manner.

Shen Qingzhuo hated this kind of pervert who took pleasure in torturing people the most, but when he saw him in front of the palace, he still politely called him: "Mr. Pan."

The relationship between Dongchang and Jinyiwei has always been delicate, and the power and status ebb and flow, which has always been controlled by Emperor Guangxi within a reasonable range.Although Jin Yiwei is slightly more popular now, there is still a Su Gonggong behind Pan Chong, who should not be underestimated.

As soon as Pan Chong saw him, he laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes open, and said in a raised voice, "Oh, Mr. Zhenfu has come to see His Majesty again."

Shen Qingzhuo nodded slightly: "There is an important case to report to the Holy One."

"Beizhen Fusi has been busy with official duties recently, congratulations." Pan Chong stared intently at the face in front of him, which is prettier than a woman, and smiled before the other party's cold face, "Then our family will not delay Mr. Zhenfu. gone."

Shen Qingzhuo cupped his hands in return, turned around and stepped into the Imperial Palace.

Emperor Guangxi was lying on the dragon couch and dozed off, and the hall was filled with ambergris, which was smoky.

Due to the deteriorating health, Emperor Guangxi recently began to search for Taoist masters to study the art of cultivating immortals and alchemy, in order to live forever.As everyone knows, those pills will only send him to the underworld faster.

Shen Qingzhuo knelt down to pay his respects: "My Majesty, Sheng An."

"Pingshen." Emperor Guangxi slowly opened his increasingly cloudy eyes, "Is there any progress in the case of impeachment of the chief examiner Lian Zhong and fraud in the imperial examination?"

"Returning to the emperor, Jin Yiwei did not find a large number of gold, silver and jade objects in Mr. Lian's house." Shen Qingzhuo replied truthfully, "The Lian's mansion is impoverished, and the women in the family are all dressed in plain cotton and linen clothes."

Emperor Guangxi sneered: "So, Shen Qing thinks that Lian Zhong was wronged?"

"I think that this matter is not that simple." Shen Qingzhuo said in a deep voice, "Because Lian Zhong's family is poor, on the contrary, there is an intention to cover it up, which makes people more suspicious."

Emperor Guangxi glanced at him and agreed, "Continue to investigate."

Shen Qingzhuo: "My minister obeys the order."

Emperor Guangxi took a breath, and asked again: "Recently, has the Empress Dowager summoned you in private?"

Shen Qing's face remained unchanged: "No."

"It's true that your mother is the Empress Dowager's niece." Emperor Guangxi's tone was unpredictable, "But you have to be clear about who the Shen family is loyal to."

Shen Qingzhuo immediately knelt down: "Father is loyal, so Qingzhuo will also swear allegiance to the emperor to the death."

"Okay, I'm relieved if you're clear about it." Emperor Guangxi sighed, "After you entered Beizhen Fusi, the few cases you handled were considered good. Work hard, and I won't treat you badly. "

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love." Shen Qingzhuo replied firmly, "I will definitely live up to your grace."

"Let's step back first." Emperor Guangxi waved his hand feebly, as if thinking of something, "Seventh Prince, how is the situation?"

Shen Qingzhuo thought for a while, and replied: "Everything is as usual, His Royal Highness has been spending a lot of time in the martial arts field recently."

Emperor Guangxi closed his eyes, "That's good too. If you train your body well, you will live longer in the future."

***

Shen Qingzhuo withdrew from the imperial front and returned to his residence.

On the way, he suddenly turned around and went straight to Changle Palace.

He didn't lie in front of Emperor Guangxi, he was busy with the official duties of Fusi in Beizhen recently, and the young apprentice wasted his energy in the martial arts field except for reading and practicing calligraphy.

Counting this time, the two haven't seen each other for three days, he can't neglect the education of his little apprentice.

It was getting late, and as soon as Shen Qingzhuo stepped into Changle Palace, he saw palace people kneeling on the ground in the outer hall.

"What's going on?" He casually asked a little eunuch kneeling at the entrance of the hall, "Where is His Highness the Seventh?"

Seeing that it was Mr. Shen, the little eunuch breathed a sigh of relief, and stammered: "Mr. Hui, Mr. Hui, just now two girls came to the Empress Dowager's Palace..."

"Empress Dowager?" Shen Qingzhuo frowned, "Did the maidservant come from the Empress Dowager Palace?"

He sneered in his heart, the empress dowager is too impatient, so she can't wait to put eyeliner in Changle Palace?

The little eunuch lowered his head: "Yes..."

Shen Qingzhuo scanned around, "There are only two more maids on the left and right, they have nothing to do with you, what are you kneeling here for?"

"This..." the little eunuch Nuonuo said, "My lord, you should go in and have a look yourself."

Shen Qingzhuo walked inside in a daze.

Before the person approached the inner hall, he heard a burst of "crackling" sound coming from inside, accompanied by the angry roar of the young man: "Get out! Get out!"

Shen Qingzhuo was taken aback, thinking that he hadn't seen him in just a few days, is the little apprentice going to demolish the house?

He quickened his pace and pushed open the beautifully patterned palace door, but just bumped into a figure running out of it, and fell headfirst into his arms.

"Hey!" Shen Qingzhuo subconsciously stretched out his hand to support the other party, took a closer look, let go of his hand in surprise, and took several steps back, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to touch you."

The woman who bumped into him was dressed in a gorgeous palace dress, her temples were slightly disheveled, and her fragrant shoulders were half exposed. She looked at him with tears in her eyes, then pushed him away angrily and ran out.

Shen Qingzhuo was dumbfounded and froze on the spot.

"Go away!" The hoarse young voice exploded in my ears, "Sir! Sir, save me!"

Shen Qingzhuo suddenly came back to his senses, and saw on the messy bed, a handsome young man with his clothes half-faded, holding on to the waistband of his trousers and hiding to the side, his feet powerlessly kicking on the quilt, trying to kick away the woman who wanted to climb onto the bed .

With a "click", he seemed to hear the sound of something breaking.

What is the meaning of this scene of robbing a boy from a good family...

"Sir!" The young man seemed to have grasped at straws, and the voice that called him was already a bit crying.

Shen Qingzhuo pursed his lips, and said in a low voice, "Let go of Your Highness."

The woman on the bed was shocked, but unexpectedly obeyed, and quickly got down on the bed and knelt on the ground, "Mr. Shen."

Shen Qingzhuo said coldly: "What are you doing?"

The maid replied neither humble nor overbearing: "If you return to the son, the servant will obey the Queen Mother's order and teach His Royal Highness the skills in the house."

Shen Qingzhuo: "..."

He almost forgot that although the little apprentice was only 15 years old and he hadn't grown up in his heart, according to Dayong's custom, the princes would have court ladies at the age of fourteen, and they would take concubines and wives at the age of sixteen or seventeen.

But Xiao Shen grew up in the cold palace since he was a child, and later he was the only one around him who was both a father and a husband. He knew nothing about men, women, and love, and he was like a blank slate.

The palace maid continued: "The Empress Dowager ordered the Seventh Prince to reach the age of fifteen, and he still doesn't understand the matter of men and women's houses. It is against common sense. I specially appointed two slaves, maidservants and sisters to serve His Highness the Seventh Prince together."

Shen Qingzhuo: "..."

Good guy, it's still sisters who serve her husband together...

"Ahem..." He cleared his throat and replied with a straight voice, "I know the situation, you go back and report to your orders first, and I will explain to the empress dowager personally later."

"This..." The maid gave him a hesitant look.

Shen Qingzhuo's face darkened, and he glanced at her coldly, "Why, do you want me to repeat it again?"

"I don't dare." The maid bowed her head and saluted, quickly gathered up the scattered clothes, and hurried out.

But before she had time to tidy up her skirt, she almost tripped and fell to the ground after taking a few steps. Fortunately, Shen Qingzhuo quickly helped her up.

"Thank you, Mr. Shen." The maid who was still calm just now blushed slightly, and gently pushed him away and continued to walk outside.

Shen Qingzhuo turned his gaze back to the bed, and saw that the little apprentice was still hiding inside with his arms folded, so he had no choice but to walk to the bed.

"It's okay." He comforted softly, "Everyone is gone."

Xiao Shen raised his eyes, his obsidian beautiful eyes contained tears of humiliation, his thin lips were flattened, and finally he complained in a trembling voice: "Sir, she, she took off my obscene pants, and touched, touched me... ..."

"Pfft—" Shen Qingzhuo, who had endured it for a long time, finally gave in. Looking at the grievance-filled boy from a good family, he lifted his back and laughed.

"Hahahahahaha!"

Xiao Shen: "?"

The author has something to say:

Dog Gou bared his teeth: Today's husband hugged me and laughed at me, tomorrow I will fold my husband's willow waist like this...

The little wolf cub was forced to open up, sir!

It's going to be on the thousand-word list, so the next update is tomorrow night, around [-] o'clock on Saturday night, and strive for the third update!
