After the emperor sat down, exquisite dishes and several jugs of imperial wine were quickly served.
Xishun stood aside and poured the wine from the pot into the glass.
The emperor didn't want to criticize the book, he obviously wanted to drink to his heart's content.
It is strange that the emperor seldom drinks alcohol on weekdays.
It seems that the emperor is in a very good mood today.
"Xishun, take them all out, I'll be alone for a while."
"The slave obeys the order."
Xishun waved his hand and led a group of serving maids and eunuchs to the door.
They did not go far, waiting quietly outside the door.
After these people left, the emperor took the wine glass and looked into the darkness.
"Qianying, come out and have a drink with me."
After he finished speaking, a figure walked out of the darkness.
This man was wearing tight-fitting black clothes and holding a long sword in his hand.
At first glance, if you wear a veil, you look like an assassin.
If anyone sees such a scene, they will definitely be shocked.
Qianying came not far from the emperor and knelt down respectfully.
"Thousands of shadows meet your Majesty, long live my emperor."
The emperor waved his hand and showed a faint smile.
"Get up, you and I don't need to be polite, just sit down."
Qianying raised his head and glanced at the emperor, stood up and sat opposite the emperor. The long sword in his hand was placed nearby.
As Qianying walked, it was so quiet that not a single sound could be heard.
Qianying took the wine jug and filled it for His Majesty, while also pouring himself a glass.
"Your Majesty, call Qianying out. Is there anything you need Qianying to do?"
"I'm very happy. Let's drink first and talk about it later."
Qianying said nothing and drank with the emperor.
The emperor was very happy, Qianying could see this clearly, but why the emperor was happy, Qianying was at a loss.
Along the way, he has always been in the dark. The emperor just went to the queen's palace. What is there that makes your majesty so happy?
Your Majesty didn't even go to Concubine Xuan, but stayed here to drink. This is a bit abnormal no matter how you think about it.
The thoughts in Qianying's mind flashed through her mind, and she drank with His Majesty with a calm face.
After a long time, the emperor looked at Qianying.
"Qianying, if I die suddenly and mysteriously thirty years from now, what do you think the reason will be?"
The emperor's words were very calm, but it was like a thunder in Qianying's ears.
What happened? A mysterious death?
"Your Majesty, I don't know, but if such a thing really happens, Qianying can guarantee that none of the Qianying who protects Your Majesty will survive."
Qianying said very firmly, with a trace of panic flashing in his expression.
Has His Majesty become suspicious of their Qianying?
The emperor looked at Qianying and showed a faint smile.
If he can't even trust the Dragon Shadow Guards, then I'm afraid no one in Noda's Dragon Dynasty can trust him anymore.
Qianying was obviously mistaken, and it was completely normal to be worried.
"Don't have any worries, I'm just going to discuss it with you briefly."
"Let me put the question another way. If I die, is it possible that I was killed by an assassin?"
Qianying immediately shook his head firmly.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible. No one can be assassinated by an assassin under the protection of the Thousand Shadow Guards, and even the top masters in the world will never be able to do it."
The emperor nodded after hearing this. In fact, he knew this in his heart.
"Is it possible that it's the poison?"
Qianying immediately shook her head firmly again.
"Your Majesty, this is impossible. Long Shadow Guard is very familiar with poisons. This is Long Shadow Guard's special skill and no one can match it."
The emperor nodded again, he believed in Long Shadow Guard's ability.
But besides these, what else is there?
Since it was a mysterious death, it couldn't be due to illness, right?
"Is it possible that it is a particularly acute illness?"
Qianying was silent this time. He was really not sure about the disease.
"Your Majesty, some diseases may really take away lives in a short period of time, and I dare not make false claims."
A complicated look flashed across the emperor's eyes. The best doctors in the world were all in the palace.
But there are always some diseases, and even imperial doctors are sometimes helpless. Everyone is equal before diseases. Even if he is the emperor, it is difficult to change this fact.
"Besides these, what other possibilities do you think there are?"
Qianying fell into deep thought.
Assassination, poisoning, disease, and what?
Qianying thought for a while and then shook his head slightly.
"Your Majesty, apart from these, the only possibility is that he died."
puff......
The emperor took a sip of wine and spit it out.
End of life?
He is only twenty-two years old now, will he live another thirty years and die?
No way! Is he so short-lived?
This is too... Could it be that that brat really got it right?
Qianying looked worried.
"Your Majesty, are you okay?"
"Ahem...I'm fine."
After coughing several times, the emperor finally calmed down the air in his throat.
"Qianying, how is the training situation among the Dragon Shadow Guards? Are there any qualified Shadow Guards that can be deployed?"
Qianying thought for a while and nodded.
"Your Majesty, there are twenty outstanding people who have completed all training and can be sent on missions."
"Oh? Yes, there are so many of them, much better than I expected."
Hearing the emperor's praise, Qianying showed a hint of joy.
"Qianying, select the eight strongest shadow guards among them and arrange them next to the queen."
"What? Eight? Your Majesty, this..."
Qianying's face suddenly changed in shock.
Although these twenty shadow guards are still young, they are only fifteen years old.
But given time, they can definitely grow into the strongest Qiankage, and may even surpass them in the future.
Eight queens were sent to protect them at once, what???
You know, there are only ten Qianying protecting the emperor.
How could Qianying not be shocked by such an arrangement?
Qianying's shocked expression did not surprise the emperor at all.
These Dragon Shadow Guards trained by Qianying are so terrifying that ordinary people cannot even imagine them.
The Dragon Dynasty was recruiting people, and Qianying was severely short of manpower, and it was often the case that they couldn't be deployed.
Although a team of Dragon Shadow Guards was trained, most of them were eliminated during the selection process, and only a few were able to enter the Dragon Shadow Guards for training.
This time we trained the most Dragon Shadow Guards, but when it came time to use them, they were simply not enough.
It is normal for Qianying to be so surprised when eight people were transferred away at once to protect only one queen.
"Yes, you can make arrangements soon. These eight people must appear in front of me tomorrow."
"Qianying obeys the order."
The emperor has made up his mind, and Qianying doesn't have much to say.
It was because Qianying was special that they dared to speak like this in front of the emperor. If it had been anyone else, they would not have dared to say a word at all.
"Your Majesty, in what capacity do they appear? Or are they going to protect the Queen in the dark?"
The emperor thought for a while.
"You don't need to be in the dark. The Shadow Guards have special general orders in their hands. They are senior generals of the Sixteenth Guards of the Imperial City. They know the special nature of the Shadow Guards."
"The generals are very afraid of you."
Qianying showed a faint smile, he knew these situations very well.
"Your Majesty, I will arrange for the eight of them to meet the saint as soon as possible."
"Okay, you go."
Qianying stood up with his sword, walked into the darkness, and soon disappeared into the imperial study.
In that dark place, there were several thousand shadows guarding there.
