Chu Li clasped his fists, thanked Er He for his kindness, and then said goodbye to the two little cranes.
The two little cranes reluctantly nuzzled him with their long beaks.
Chu Li patted their heads, then held two spiritual rabbits in one hand and Xiao Shi in the other, and suddenly disappeared.
The two of them appeared in the small pavilion on Yushi Island. There was a cool breeze and it was extremely humid.
"Do you want to eat these two spiritual rabbits?"
"Try it."
"Then send it to the kitchen and let them cook it."
"How about we bake it ourselves?"
"...that's fine."
Xiao Shi gave a few instructions, and soon someone brought charcoal fire and a stove.
A plump and fair cook took away two rabbits to cook.
She came back quickly and said sheepishly: "Miss, the kitchen knife can't cut this rabbit's skin."
"Oh" Xiao Shi turned to look at Chu Li.
Chu Li smiled and said: "Take my sword."
He handed over the dust sword.
"...Yes." The cook hesitated, took the sword, and walked away.
"It seems that it is indeed a spiritual beast. Such a rabbit is so powerful."
"I wonder what benefits will come from eating it?"
"It's just rabbit meat, what good can it do?" Xiao Shi smiled and said, "It's not a spiritual herb."
The cook was neat and tidy, and quickly brought two cooked rabbits over and handed them the dust lightsaber.
So they set up a fire, and the two of them watched the fire in person.
Chu Li has some experience in barbecue, but is far inferior to the cook.
Soon the two handed it to the cook and watched her bake it.
Soon the aroma filled the air, and when the two of them ate it, they felt it was tender and smooth. It was really delicious, and the cook's skills were also superb.
After Chu Li ate it, he realized carefully that a stream of heat quickly flowed out of his stomach and spread all over his body. The whole body was steaming with heat. This heat stream circulated around the internal organs, strengthening the internal organs.
He has been feeling a faint sense of hunger since he started using the Heavenly Demon Kung Fu, and no matter how much food he ate, he still couldn't feel full. After eating this spiritual rabbit, he felt full all of a sudden.
Xiao Shi said: "There's nothing good about it."
Chu Li smiled and said: "It's not a panacea. How can it have such a miraculous effect? Miss, you should practice breathing more. I'll go back first."
"Go, go!" Xiao Shi waved her jade hands and said, "You go back to Shendu first and come back in the evening."
"Okay." Chu Li agreed.
He suddenly appeared outside the city of God.
He slept in the open at Linghe Peak last night, bringing with him the night air and a trace of travel dust when he arrived at the Secret Guard Mansion.
When the two guards saw him, they cupped their fists and saluted without stopping him.
Chu Li went straight to the hall, where Xu Huande was reading files one after another.
Seeing him come in, Xu Huande put the file away and stared at him coldly: "I live a very happy life. As a secret guard, I don't want to serve the court, but instead abandon my official duties for personal reasons. It's really..."
Chu Li cupped his fists and said, "Commander Xu, how are you doing these days?"
"No!" Xu Huande snorted: "Have you found out about Governor Hu?"
Chu Li sat opposite him: "He died at the hands of the Holy Religion of Light."
"Huh?" Xu Huande frowned: "Or the Holy Sect of Light? ... Is there such a coincidence? It won't fall on them because there is no verification, right?"
Chu Li said: "I took a rag from Governor Hu and found out a disciple of the Holy Sect of Light based on the rag. I have already killed that guy, so I can check whether he is a disciple of the Holy Sect of Light!"
"They are so brave!" Xu Huande's face darkened: "How dare you kill the imperial official!"
Chu Li said: "Why did they want to kill Governor Hu? It turned into an open case. Both of them are dead. I didn't ask anything. The disciples of the Guangming Sect can't ask for a confession!"
"I will send someone over to investigate carefully. If it is true, you will have made a contribution." Xu Huande said solemnly: "Guangming Holy Cult!... Are you still planning to drag it on?"
"I'll go back to my house and settle down, and then I'll start investigating the Holy Sect of Light!"
Xu Huande hesitated for a moment and then said slowly: "I heard that Prince An lost his martial arts skills, suffered heavy injuries, and lost his heirs."
Chu Li frowned: "Why did it come out?"
"It seems true." Xu Huande shook his head and sighed: "Then Prince An's Mansion may be in trouble, you have to be careful!"
"What's the matter?" Chu Li snorted.
"I don't need to say more, you are a smart person and should be able to guess it." Xu Huande frowned and said: "There are no heirs, and King An has no incense inheritance so far, which means that his line is cut off, and King An has no inheritance.
The possibility of inheriting the throne."
Chu Li said: "That's not necessarily the case. The imperial physician is highly skilled and will be able to find a solution."
"When it comes to the heir, there is nothing the imperial doctor can do." Xu Huande shook his head and sighed: "Without the heir, it is impossible to inherit the throne."
"You can adopt a side branch and bring in an heir."
"After all, he is not his biological son, and there will be endless troubles." Xu Huande sighed: "In short, King An has withdrawn from the fight for the throne."
Chu Li said: "This is also beneficial. You will no longer be feared by others and will not be suppressed."
"There are benefits, but you will also be looked down upon and you will inevitably be angry." Xu Huande said, "Two days ago, Miss Leng Qiu was beaten again."
Chu Li's face suddenly darkened: "Who?"
Xu Huande said: "Who else can there be?"
"Leng Tao!" Chu Li gritted his teeth and hummed.
Xu Huande nodded slowly.
Chu Li said: "I will go to Prince Cheng's Mansion tomorrow!"
"...You won't hit Leng Tao, right?"
"So what if I beat him!" Chu Li snorted: "We should also seek justice for Miss Leng Qiu. A dignified man actually bullied a woman who doesn't know martial arts. Such a guy can't do it without beating him!"
"Don't forget King Cheng." Xu Huande said: "King An is not the King An he used to be. King Cheng will no longer worry about him."
Chu Li muttered: "Fight Leng Tao, and check the palace at the same time. Kill two birds with one stone!"
"That's a good idea." Xu Huande smiled and said, "Just so it doesn't attract anyone's attention."
Chu Li stood up and clasped his fists: "Then I'll leave first!"
"Go ahead, don't forget to go to Prince Cheng's Mansion tomorrow." Xu Huande smiled and said, "But your two men haven't come back yet."
"They can come back tomorrow." Chu Li said.
"Very good." Xu Huande nodded with satisfaction.
Chu Li returned to Prince An's Mansion.
As soon as he returned to his small courtyard, Leng Qiu and Leng Qing hurried over, and behind them several maids ran in panting.
Leng Qiu pouted, and after entering the small courtyard, he came to sit in front of Chu Li: "General manager, you have to help me vent my anger!"
Chu Li looked at her face and saw no scars.
"Leng Tao hit someone again?" Chu Li said.
Leng Qiu said bitterly: "I slapped me, saying that I would slap you back if you dared."
"He has become bolder." Chu Li said.
"Everyone sees that dad has lost his martial arts and feels easy to bully!" Leng Qiu snorted, "What a bunch of villains! Powerful villains!"
Chu Li looked at Leng Qing.
Leng Qing was wearing a lavender Luo shirt, cold and indifferent.
Leng Qing said: "After my father's martial arts was abolished, everyone's attitude changed. Some pity and some ridicule, anyway, everything has changed!... Is there anything the chief manager can do?"
Chu Li shook his head and said: "The prince is the backbone of the palace. Now that the prince is frustrated, the palace will definitely suffer, but it doesn't matter. The prince will soon resume his martial arts."
"It's not easy to recover." Leng Qing said calmly: "Dad is said to be unable to have any more children, and it is impossible for us to have a younger brother."
Chu Li remained silent.
Leng Qing said: "This is the key."
Chu Li sighed: "Let the adults worry about these things. You two young ladies don't need to pay attention to them." (To be continued.)
