Chapter 423: One day for a husband and a hundred days of kindness
Time Loop: Arrested by Six Doors at the Beginning Chapter 423: One Day for a Husband and a Hundred Days of Grace
"Your Majesty, I don't dare." Chu Qianqiu shook his head and refused to irritate the surrounding Ouchi guards any more.
There are eunuchs, maids, shadow guards, etc. here, which is the foundation of the Ouchi Palace.
No matter how confident Chu Qianqiu is, he doesn't think he can resist this dragnet.
He once asked the prime minister Cui Taihua in detail, and then he understood that the palace's formation could concentrate power at one point.
Cui Taihua said:
"The formations in the imperial palace consume a large amount of spiritual liquid every day, and the practicing slaves in captivity in various places are required to provide the spiritual liquid."
"The suppression that warriors receive in daily life has only opened up a small part."
"Once attacked, the power will be fully activated. Some innate masters will even be unable to move."
"So my nephew must not be impulsive when doing things, and he must not conflict with senior officials in the palace."
After competing with the eldest princess, Cui Taihua said uneasily.
"How many masters must be kept in captivity in this palace to withstand the consumption of spiritual liquid?" Chu Qianqiu was surprised. At least the masters of the later stage must be able to condense the spiritual liquid.
The palace activates formations every day, and the consumption is huge.
"As the saying goes, a drop of water makes a river. This spiritual liquid may not require a late-stage innate master."
"The imperial court has six gates. There are imperial guards, Shenwu Army, Shence Army, and thugs raised by the government from various places. This spiritual liquid is a tribute."
"The imperial court is rich and can naturally support such expenses."
Cui Taihua also has his own purpose in saying this. The Cui family supports the Shenwei Army, but does not want the Shenwei Army to rebel. They like balance.
The Niu Party's interests come from opposing the Royal Party. If the Shenwei Army rebels, their interests will also be lost.
"Don't worry, Mr. Cui, I will not do anything so daring."
Unexpectedly, before he said this, within two hours, he would cause another big event in the palace.
Chu Qianqiu is now only five steps away from the Queen Mother. This distance allows the assassin to succeed instantly, but even the most powerful masters cannot save her.
So Chu Qianqiu took a step back instead.
"If you don't come, the Ai family will come."
I saw Queen Mother Dou getting down from the phoenix chair, walking up to Chu Qianqiu, stretching out her jade hand, and stroking Chu Qianqiu's cheek.
Not only Chu Qianqiu was stunned, but other imperial guards were also stunned. Luo Bing, the Queen Mother's personal maid, almost screamed.
In this kind of scene, everyone present will have a ridiculous idea.
Could it be that the Queen Mother has taken a liking to this young talent and is preparing to accept him as her favored one?
Although this Chu Qianqiu is indeed a talented person and a peerless genius.
But what kind of place is this? It is the Zichen Palace, the core institution where the empire handles daily affairs, large and small.
After the morning court, the Queen Mother would convene the core personnel of the empire, such as Wang Xiang, Xu Guogong, Cui Xiang and other key figures, to discuss national affairs.
In other words, this is one of the most sacred places in the Shenwu Dynasty.
In such a place, the Queen Mother stretched out her hand and touched the cheek of a young man.
Luo Bing felt like he was about to collapse.
Although there were rumors that the Queen Mother was related to the Taoist Yi, they were groundless after all. In addition, the two of them had never communicated in the depths of the palace, so everyone still looked good.
And now in public, even if most of the imperial guards who can stand here are actually from the Shence Army, they are the Dou family's personal guards, and they are the Queen Mother's loyal supporters, they cannot behave in such a disrespectful manner.
ah.
"Take off the part that disguises you so that Aijia can have a good look."
In this state of collective silence, Chu Qianqiu looked like he was facing a formidable enemy. He didn't know what kind of medicine the Empress Dowager was selling in the gourd, so he unlocked the effect of the disguise technique and revealed the appearance of Tiancan after the nine transformations.

When Luo Bing and the other maids saw him, they all gasped. Originally, Chu Qianqiu was the handsome man of choice, otherwise Xiaoxiao and the three Cui sisters wouldn't have gotten along with him so easily.
However, the appearance after the optimization of Tiancan's Nine Transformations is an immortal appearance that transcends the ordinary world. Even the heart that just collapsed has gradually gained a little understanding.
The Queen Mother was moved, but she couldn't understand it.
But why in public?
"He is truly an amazing man in the world."
"If you don't cover up your appearance, I don't know how many women in the world will be in trouble, tossing and turning."
The Queen Mother rubbed Chu Qianqiu's face twice. There was no affection between the two parties, and it was definitely not the Queen Mother who had a crush on him, as some people thought.
"Your Majesty, you are so impressed." Chu Qianqiu did not feel the Queen Mother's slender and tender jade hands. Instead, he felt the soft palms that turned into bones. The extreme cold, and the battle between the two sides was about to break out.
Just when Chu Qianqiu was about to take action, the Queen Mother retracted her palm, and then laughed softly:
"You want to anger the Aijia and bury your life here."
"It is really brave to let the imperial court bear the crime of murder and let the imperial court lose the hope of the world."
"Are you so loyal to the Divine Power Army?"
Actually, that's not what I thought.
Chu Qianqiu complained a few words in his mind. He just wanted to anger the Queen Mother. It was best to make her lose her composure and let her find out some useful information.
But I didn't expect the Queen Mother to be so weird and bold.
Is this Dou family woman so open-minded?
"I don't dare." Chu Qianqiu quickly took a step back and distanced himself from the Queen Mother to prevent the two from coming into contact again.

What did the Queen Mother want to do? There was a violent coughing sound from the Zichen Palace. Several eunuchs came over carrying a chair with a white-haired boy sitting on it.
"Ahem!"
The visitor was none other than the nominal leader of the empire, the sixteen-year-old Emperor—Xiao Yi.
Everyone in the Zichen Palace, eunuchs, and maids knelt down one after another.
"See Your Majesty."
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
The Queen Mother looked at her nominal son coldly, her eyes were unkind, and she didn't say a word.
At this time, Chu Qianqiu was rapidly observing the relationship between the two, and for the sake of safety, he naturally would not kneel down.
"Ahem, everyone, get up."
The young emperor had a warm smile on his face, as if he was not aware of the strange things happening in the hall, and said calmly:
"The queen summoned Qianqiu, but why didn't she tell the child?"
Without waiting for the Queen Mother to answer, she continued:
"Qianqiu, what I said has always been valid. Are you willing to be my minister?"
This time he did not use the Immortal Jade Edict, but Chu Qianqiu still said humbly.
"I am terrified."
Chu Qianqiu once again rejected the young emperor's advances, but he didn't take it seriously and kept the smile on his face, while the Queen Mother was not so polite.
"Emperor, if you are not cultivating in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, what are you doing here?"
"The Ai family summoned Mr. Chu, naturally to clean up the mess in the emperor's affairs."
As soon as the Queen Mother spoke, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Although the relationship between the Queen Mother and His Majesty has not been very good, she did not expect that it would break out here.
The eunuchs and maids, especially those with low martial arts skills, instantly trembled.
The next moment, Chu Qianqiu was trembling because he heard a secret transmission.
Chanjuan, how can you do this to me if you are a husband and wife for a hundred days? 】
On my wedding day, I hope you and Ke Yue will serve me together, just like before.】
The young emperor was still smiling, but his words seemed to be wronged.
