Lu Changjing felt that today might be a good day, otherwise the three concubines who knew about the small hole in the skylight would not have arrived one after another. Touching his newly swollen mouth, Lu Changjing squeezed out a smile and greeted Tan Baobao who rushed towards him happily. "The baby is here, and my brother misses you too." Lu Changjing smiled happily, hugged Tan Qingyun's soft and delicate body, looked at the food box that was bigger than Lin Yixin, and felt that the practice was really useful. If he didn't practice, he wouldn't be able to finish even Lin Yixin's box, let alone Tan Qingyun's food box. At the same time, Huangji's mental power fluctuated, and he was able to control a radius of more than thirty meters, including the ground and the top of his head, and no abnormalities were found. It seemed that Tan Qingyun acted very carefully and was not noticed by the people around her who were sent by Cao Wenzheng. Only then did Lu Changjing enjoy the imported delicacies with Tan Qingyun with confidence. Several kilograms of spiritual fruits, spiritual meat, and spiritual wine... were actually eaten by the two of them. After looking at the dimming sky and touching Baby Tan's round belly, Lu Changjing began to drive away the reluctant little guy: "It's time for dinner soon, go back quickly." "Let the baby lie down for a while. He is too full and can't move." Tan Qingyun groaned.
Lu Changjing kissed her: "If you don't go back, other concubines will become suspicious. Then there will be another competitor. Concubine Duan also made a mistake just now and was discovered by Concubine Jin. She also knows about the small hole in the skylight today." "Ah..." Tan Qingyun immediately got up and widened her round eyes: "Does Concubine Xiao also know? Lin Yixin is really unreliable. She promised to be careful, but only the two of us know. Well, Concubine Xiao actually discovered it. No, I’m going to question her.” Without Lu Changjing's further persuasion, Tan Qingyun got up on her own and hurriedly left the imperial study room with her food box. But after Tan Qingyun left, Lu Changjing's face immediately darkened, because within the scope of his spiritual power, he could clearly sense that Cao Xiuyuan was staring at Tan Qingyun who was retreating about ten meters away from the wall of the imperial study room. Cao Xiuyuan is Cao Wenzheng's nephew and the most outstanding descendant of Cao Wenzheng. He even regards him as his godson and is the commander of Jinwu Guard, one of the thirty-six guards of Bai Yujing. He had been in charge of the Ten Thousand Gold Guards and was responsible for guarding the imperial city. Although he was only a mid-level grandmaster, his power had surpassed many high-level grandmasters among the thirty-six guards. It was precisely because of their trust in Cao Xiuyuan that Ning Zhongyu and Cao Wenzheng arranged for him to personally guard the imperial study, surrounded by basically Jinwu Guards, mixed with a small number of eunuchs and maids. Moreover, these eunuchs and maids were also controlled by Cao Xiuyuan. Any abnormality in Qianqing Palace and Imperial Study Room would be noticed immediately. Although I had thought that this day would come, after all, the three concubines were coming in and out more and more frequently, how could they not reveal their flaws. But it came so quickly, which surprised Lu Changjing. Fortunately, he now has enough strength. The soul-picking hook at the level of Xiaocheng suddenly pierced into his spiritual sea just when Cao Xiuyuan frowned and was about to report this matter to Cao Wenzheng. Although it is protected by a spiritual defense weapon, its level is too low to block the power of the soul-picking hook. In addition, Cao Xiuyuan was also quite surprised when he just discovered that Concubine Zhen sneaked into the imperial study. He was not focused on this aspect, so he was successfully attacked by Lu Changjing. "bite……" In the imperceptible sound, a ray of Cao Xiuyuan's three souls and seven souls was successfully lured away by Lu Changjing and fell into the spiritual sea. From now on, just a thought from Lu Changjing can make Cao Xiuyuan's soul fly away. Cao Xiuyuan was shocked and suddenly realized something, but it was too late. "Get in here, don't let anyone see you." The soft sound in his ears made Cao Xiuyuan not dare to delay. He immediately found an unlocked window and entered the imperial study.
"See Your Majesty!" Apart from panic, Cao Xiuyuan was also a little strange. After all, Ning Zhongyu is the emperor of the dynasty. If anything happens, you can just give him orders. Why bother to enslave and control him with mystical magic. This is simply unnecessary! But then he thought of what his adoptive father had ordered him to do before. Although it was not stated clearly, he was clearly asked to supervise the emperor's every move, but the words were more tactful. Could it be because of this that Lu Changjing took action against him. When he thought of this, Cao Xiuyuan's expression suddenly changed, and sweat appeared on his forehead. Regarding the matter of letting Lu Changjing pretend to be Ning Zhongyu, Cao Wenzheng did not even tell his adopted son. This matter was so closely related that one less person would know about it. If something goes wrong, Cao Wenzheng's life will not be easy in the future. Therefore, in Cao Xiuyuan's view, Lu Changjing in the imperial study was Ning Zhongyu and the current emperor, and he was not a fake. Looking at Cao Xiuyuan who was kneeling down in front of him, Lu Changjing looked grim: "Cao Xiuyuan, I know that you are Cao Wenzheng's nephew and his adopted son, and you are relatively close to him." "But for today's matter, I will spare your life only if you kill your relatives out of justice. Otherwise, even your parents, relatives and friends, and all the nine tribes will be killed, let alone you." "Ah..." After hearing what Lu Changjing said was so serious, Cao Xiuyuan's expression suddenly changed, and he kowtowed repeatedly: "If your Majesty has any instructions, I will do my best and will never slack off. Please spare my life." Lu Changjing looked at him: "Do you know why I want to take away a strand of your soul and control your life and death?" "Your Majesty should not trust me." Cao Xiuyuan said bitterly: "I am terrified, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." Lu Changjing sneered: "Since you know that I don't trust you, do you know why I don't trust you?" "It should be because of my adoptive father... No, because of Cao Zongguan?" Cao Xiuyuan guessed. Lu Changjing nodded: "It seems that you are not stupid. You know it is because of Cao Wenzheng. Although I trusted him very much in the past, his performance in recent years has disappointed me more and more." Cao Xiuyuan was silent. Just from Cao Wenzheng asking him to monitor the movements of His Majesty the Emperor at all times, he felt that his adoptive father had overstepped his boundaries. Even though his adoptive father taught His Majesty the Emperor about cultivation since he was a child, he was also diligent over the years. He was in charge of the Jinyiwei for His Majesty the Emperor, monitoring civil and military officials, and even handling some things that were not presentable. But a minister is a minister after all, and my adoptive father is only a subordinate of the emperor, so how could he do such an overstepping thing? Cao Xiuyuan had persuaded my adoptive father before, but Cao Wenzheng was unwilling to listen, and even asked him to stop asking about this matter, without even explaining it. Now it seems that it has really backfired. Although the emperor is obsessed with cultivation, he is not a fool.
