Chu Li looked up at him and smiled at him: "Don't worry, Lao Chu, you will be fine."
Manager Chu quickly showed a kind smile: "Thank you, Manager."
Chu Li said: "You are enthusiastic about everyone, and the prince can't do anything to you. Besides, you have done a good job as the foreign affairs manager of the palace. There is no need to be frightened. As long as you keep walking on thin ice, you, the foreign affairs general manager, will be as stable as a rock."
"Yes, thank you, Chief Manager, for your advice!" Manager Chu said hurriedly.
Chu Li nodded and walked inside, his mind on Prince An, when he saw Prince An coming to the study in high spirits.
There had been no one in the study for many days, and there was a slight dust. King An suddenly became furious and called for two maids. He beat them so hard that their skin and flesh were torn, and they screamed and begged for mercy.
King An stood on the steps, looking handsome and handsome under his bright yellow robe, but his eyes were as cold as ice.
He looked at the two maids who were lying on the ground chanting softly, and then glanced at the several silent guards, and said solemnly: "It seems that you have lived a very prosperous life during the days I have been in seclusion, and you have gained a little weight!"
Everyone hurriedly bowed their heads.
King An had a good reputation, but he was lenient on the outside and taboo on the inside. He had strong rules and strict actions in the palace. The things he ordered to do were not too tiring, but he was nervous for fear of making mistakes, so he couldn't gain weight.
During the days when King An was away, they also did those things, but without King An by their side, they felt less stressed, more relaxed, and somewhat slack in their actions. At this time, they were all anxious and uneasy.
King An said calmly: "From today on, things will be back to normal. I hope you will take good care of yourselves and don't make me angry, lest you don't get the good fruit."
"Yes." Everyone responded respectfully.
King An nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand, and signaled to go down.
The two maids reluctantly thanked King An and were carried out. They had to rest on the couch for at least ten days.
Chu Li walked towards Tianshu Courtyard, walking slowly, seeing everything that happened in his mind.
He sighed secretly. Sure enough, he became arrogant when he got his ambition. After King An suffered setbacks, his temperament became more impetuous and extreme, and he became more dangerous.
Before getting close to Tianshu Courtyard, I heard the sound of Cong Cong and Xiao Shi playing the harp.
From the sound of the piano, she was in a good mood, calm and happy.
The days of almost staying in the courtyard and occasionally visiting the back garden of the palace may seem boring to most people, but Xiao Shi is used to such a life, which is almost the same as when she was in the Duke's palace.
She felt good, calm and peaceful, with no worries. Occasionally she would listen to Chu Li talk about things outside, and then go around with Chu Li to see the scenery, and go to Linghe Peak to play with Xiaohe for a while.
It's also exciting enough.
When he entered the small courtyard, the sound of the piano suddenly stopped.
Xiao Shisu took his hand away from the strings and waved at him.
Chu Li came over and sat across from her. In the faint fragrance, her face was as white as jade, absolutely beautiful, and her bright eyes were so deep that it seemed like she was sucking his heart in. Even if he saw her every day, he could not stand facing her bright eyes.
"Has Wang An's martial arts recovered?" Xiao Shi said calmly.
Chu Li was startled and said with a smile: "When did you know?"
"In the mansion, I have better information than you!" Xiao Shi said with a smile: "I didn't expect that this scourge would return to martial arts!"
Chu Li nodded: "I just saw him."
"Has your appearance changed again?" Xiao Shi hummed, "Be more honest?"
Chu Li shook his head: "On the contrary, it has become more and more rampant. Miss, please be careful. If something goes wrong, pinch the relic beads!"
"Yeah, I know." Xiao Shija snorted: "Forget about getting rid of him again!"
Chu Li frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head: "It's okay once, but twice is too much. Let's see again."
"You can't get used to this kind of guy. You have to push him down as soon as he raises his head. Otherwise, there will be a big commotion. Just wait and see!" Xiao Shi snorted: "I get annoyed when I see him and don't want to see him!
"
"Then I won't see you." Chu Li said: "He promised not to come to Tianshu Academy."
"Out of sight, out of mind!" Xiao Shi said.
The two of them were talking when Zheng Lide's voice suddenly came from outside: "General manager, the prince has invited you to go to Yaoguang Courtyard."
Chu Li nodded and said: "Yes."
"What is he going to do again?" Xiao Shi frowned.
Chu Li said: "I guess you can't wait to take away my position as chief manager."
"Are you going to take it away again?" Xiao Shi snorted: "He is really annoying, as if the chief manager is such a treasure!"
Chu Li smiled and said: "This is indeed true for ordinary people."
"You also care about this?" Xiao Shi rolled her eyes at him.
Chu Li said: "It doesn't matter if we have this seat now or not."
"You simply don't go!" Xiao Shi said, "Just say you don't have time to talk to him!"
Chu Li laughed.
Xiao Shi said: "Since he is so shameless, you don't need to give him a good face."
Chu Li smiled and said, "Let's see what he does. It's quite interesting."
Xiao Shi rolled her eyes at him.
When Chu Li came to Yaoguang Courtyard, Song Liuying and Xue Ningyu were both there, and Leng Qing and Lengqiu were also sitting aside.
King An was sitting in the main seat of the living room, Xu Ning was sitting on the lower right, and the lower left seat was reserved for him. Song Liuying and Xue Ningyu were far apart.
Chu Li clasped his fists and greeted each other with greetings. Then he sat down opposite Xu Ning and looked at Prince An: "What's important, Your Majesty?"
"About your position." King An said sternly: "Now that I have recovered my martial arts, I can also take charge of the affairs in the palace. Chu Li, you are now the centurion of the Secret Guard Palace, and you are also in a high position. You need to concentrate on your work.
, my energy is limited, so just let go of this part of the house and let me take care of it."
Chu Li smiled and clasped his fists: "Wang An is considerate and grateful."
"Then from today on, you will be the general manager of Tianshu Academy, stepping down from the position of chief manager." King An nodded with satisfaction, feeling extremely depressed.
What he wanted to see was Chu Li's depressed expression, but the result seemed to be relief, relaxation and joy, which made him feel depressed and unable to express himself.
Chu Li smiled and said: "It's so good. It's easy to take care of everything. It's really not easy to manage such a big palace. I also feel that I don't have enough energy."
"Very good." King An felt depressed, but with a satisfied look on his face, he nodded: "You have worked hard these days. I want to reward you well. You don't have a maid yet, right?"
Chu Li waved his hand and said: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. When Xueling comes back, you will be my maid."
"Xueling hasn't come back," said Prince An, "I will find a maid who is as beautiful as a flower, and I will satisfy you. Don't worry!"
Chu Li smiled and shook his head: "I don't dare to take it seriously."
King An's face darkened and he said coldly: "Manager Chu, you want to reject my kindness? Are you looking down on me?"
Chu Li said: "Your Majesty, what I am most curious about is how you recovered your martial arts."
"The maid will come to your courtyard tomorrow." King An snorted coldly: "It is a coincidence that my martial arts recovery happened. I suddenly understood the magical skill of the Golden Body Arhat, and overnight I recovered as before, and my skills even increased sharply.
Twice it, it’s really amazing!”
Chu Li smiled.
I also practice the Golden Body Arhat Magic Technique. Although I have been delayed due to the Jueyun Magic Technique and the Heavenly Demon Technique, I still find time to practice it every day. It is of great benefit to the Vajra Due Magic Technique, and I feel like I am about to achieve a breakthrough.
But the golden Arhat's magical skill is not so miraculous. His skill was restored and doubled overnight. He must have used other methods. (To be continued.) 8
