The old national teacher paused, his face full of seriousness. Ye Xuanchen looked at the old national teacher standing in front of him at this time, and couldn't help but be slightly curious in his heart.

"What do they say?"

"It is said that several palace maids died in a hurry, and the methods are cruel...... That way, it seems...... It's not like ordinary people. ”

Ye Xuanchen heard that there was another meaning in the old national teacher's words, and his heart couldn't help but shock slightly.

"What does the old national teacher mean ......"

The old national teacher's figure was stunned, and his face tightened again. He groaned slightly for a moment before he spoke his thoughts in a low voice.

"I'm afraid...... It's not human......"

The old national teacher's words raised Ye Xuanchen slightly on one side, and looked at him with a little puzzlement.

"Oh? Not artificial? What did the old national teacher think? ”

The expression on the old national teacher's face was still serious, and the look in his eyes even had a deep thought.

"Back to the emperor...... The old minister guessed that there was a foreign object hidden in the palace. ”

Ye Xuanchen's doubts deepened a little, he didn't understand what the foreign object in the mouth of the old national teacher was, although the old national teacher had the ability to observe the heavens and predict, but Ye Xuanchen had always scoffed at the things of demons and monsters.

"The foreign object that the old national teacher refers to, but where is it sacred?"

Ye Xuanchen's slight nervousness caused by the serious expression on the old national teacher's face just now had completely disappeared, and his eyes returned to their initial indifference. In his opinion, these cases of tragic deaths of palace maids are a bit strange and cruel. But at most, it is only the result of a dark struggle in the harem. The cruelty of the harem's various struggles for power and power is sometimes even stronger and more insidious than that of the previous dynasty.

And Ye Xuanchen's question. But the old national teacher with the old armor had a blank face, and after a moment of silence, he shook his head gently.

"Please forgive the emperor, the old minister's ability is limited...... It is not possible to see who these two signs are...... But one of these two constellations has a bad spirit, and I'm afraid it's ......"

Looking at the old minister, Ye Xuanchen leaned on the back of the chair behind him disapprovingly.

"The old national teacher, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

He wanted to hear what else the old national teacher could say about this matter. Although he didn't believe what the old national teacher said, out of respect and politeness to the old courtier, Ye Xuanchen still chose to listen to his words.

And compared to Ye Xuanchen's dismissive attitude. Standing in front of the table, the old national teacher with a serious face. But the expression on his face became a little more ugly.

"I'm afraid it is...... It will be bad for the emperor. ”

After hearing this, Ye Xuanchen still looked indifferent, without the slightest worry or surprise.

"Old National Teacher, you've been standing for so long, thinking about it, you're tired, right? How about sitting down and discussing this with me? ”

Ye Xuanchen suddenly diverted the topic. The other old minister looked up at him in surprise. When he saw the senseless expression on Ye Xuanchen's face, it was. Only then did he realize that Ye Xuanchen didn't take what he said to heart, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

The old national teacher took another step forward, and the expression on his face became a little eager.

"Please ask the emperor to listen to the advice of the old minister. You must believe in Lao Chen! ”

Ye Xuanchen smiled lightly and stood up from the chair.

"I think the old national teacher is too nervous. The national teacher still sat down first, and then it didn't hurt to talk to me slowly. ”

The old national teacher looked at Ye Xuanchen's disapproving attitude, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart.

"Your Majesty! Don't be careless at this time! There must be a foreign object in this palace that threatens the emperor's safety! No, it may be right next to you, the emperor! Your Majesty, you must not be a fallacy to the words of the old ministers! Emperor! ”

The old national teacher put his fists on his chest with some excitement, his eyes looked at Ye Xuanchen tightly, his eyes were almost bloodshot, and it seemed that he hadn't had a good rest for a long time.

Ye Xuanchen's heart was stunned, and then the look in his eyes flashed slightly, and he slightly removed the expression on his face that he didn't care much about.

"Then according to what the old national teacher said, there are really many crises around me, but why am I still intact and have not encountered any danger?"

"Your Majesty, don't be careless in everything! Lao Chen has been observing the sky day and night in the past few days, and found that the two constellations are constantly approaching the emperor's side, and I am afraid that something big will happen in the near future! ”

The old national teacher was affectionate, but Ye Xuanchen's heart sank slightly. He didn't believe the words of the old national teacher, but he didn't believe them all. After all, the old man standing in front of him was a veteran of three generations. Although the matter of celestial phenomena sounded a little ridiculous, Ye Xuanchen was not willing to disappoint him for the loyalty of an old loyal minister.

"Okay, I have written down the words of the old national teacher."

Hearing that Ye Xuanchen finally opened his mouth, the old national teacher's heart breathed a sigh of relief. He looked up at the expression on Ye Xuanchen's face, and saw that he was no longer that indifferent attitude, and he felt a trace of comfort in his heart.

"The old national teacher has been working hard every night recently, and I'm afraid I'm tired. The old national teacher should go back to the house early to rest, don't get tired. ”

"Thank you for the Emperor's grace."

The old national teacher bowed deeply, and raised his head again to look at Ye Xuanchen, his eyes full of seriousness and seriousness.

"Please remember the words of the old minister recently, and pay more attention to the people and things around you."

"Okay, old national teacher, please go back."

Ye Xuanchen nodded, the old national teacher hesitated for a moment, and finally withdrew from the "imperial study".

Shui Yue, who was standing outside the door, listened to the conversation between the two in the house word for word. She lowered her head slightly, and the look in her eyes flashed slightly. When the old national teacher stepped out of the door from the "imperial study", his face was still full of worry. Feeling Shui Yue's gaze, the old national teacher paused slightly, then stood in place and looked up ahead, when he saw Shui Yue, his face was stunned for a moment. Immediately, a strange look flashed in the eyes of the old national teacher.

"You ......"

The old national teacher's action of wanting to speak and stopping attracted Luoyang's attention, and Luoyang turned back and bowed slightly to the old national teacher.

"Luoyang to meet the national teacher."

Luoyang's voice pulled the old national teacher's distraction back, and the old national teacher's expression flashed, and he slightly shifted his gaze away from Shui Yue's body.

"General Luo doesn't have to be polite."

Luo Yang glanced at Shui Yue beside him, and immediately noticed that the old national teacher's gaze seemed to return to her again.

"Old national teacher, she is the maid next to the emperor."

The look in the eyes of the national teacher flashed slightly, and then he nodded lightly, but he didn't say anything more, raised his footsteps, and finally skipped Shui Yue and Luoyang, and walked down the steps.

Shui Yue retracted her gaze and looked at Luoyang beside her.

"General Luo, can I go in?"

Luoyang was slightly stunned, looked at Shui Yue, and hurriedly got out of the way of the road in front of Shui Yue.

"Miss Suiyue, please."

Shui Yuehui smiled faintly from Luoyang and stepped into the door of the "Imperial Study". Shui Yue followed Ye Xuanchen's breath and looked, he was sitting behind the table at this time, holding an unopened fold in his hand, his eyes were looking ahead with some distraction, but there was no focus. He seems to be thinking about something.

Shui Yue slowed down, walked around the table and walked to Ye Xuanchen's side, and put the bottle in his hand on the table. And her move finally pulled Ye Xuanchen's distraction back. The expression on Ye Xuanchen's face returned to calm, and he opened the fold in his hand and carefully reviewed it. Shui Yue looked at Ye Xuanchen, who had returned to normal, and sharpened the ink for him as before.

The atmosphere in the palace seemed to be shrouded in an indescribable strange aura under the death of the second palace maid, and every dark corner of the palace at night seemed to have a faint hint of terror. The palace maids and eunuchs who kept vigil couldn't help but be afraid and didn't dare to walk alone on the remote palace roads in the palace. Even the palace guards on patrol have increased their vigilance and precautions several times higher than in the past.

The lanterns illuminated the entire imperial city as bright as day, it was late at night, in the "Imperial Study", Ye Xuanchen put down the last book, stretched out his arms, moved his stiff back, and then turned his head to look at Shui Yue, who had been standing by his side and never left. Wouldn't she get tired after standing for so long?

"Has the emperor's political affairs been dealt with?"

Shui Yue put down the ink in his hand and turned his head to look at Ye Xuanchen. Ye Xuanchen nodded, then stood up and turned his head to look at the sky outside the window.

"I'm tired too, so I'll go to the shower and change my clothes, and then go back to the dormitory to rest."

After speaking, Ye Xuanchen took the first step and walked towards the door. Shui Yue followed, and the little basket that had been waiting at the door couldn't help but doze off at this time, and when he saw Ye Xuanchen coming out, he hurriedly cheered up and stepped forward to salute.

"Slaves see the emperor."

Ye Xuanchen waved his hand lightly and called up the small basket, but his footsteps did not stop for a moment.

"Swing the warm pool."

After hearing this, the little basket hurriedly got up and trotted closely to catch up with Ye Xuanchen's footsteps.

Shui Yue followed Ye Xuanchen up the steps in front of the "Wenchi" door, but stopped at the door. The palace maids and eunuchs at the door knelt down to greet Ye Xuanchen, and Ye Xuanchen raised his feet and walked directly into the door. But after a few steps, he stopped. He turned to look at Shui Yue, who was standing outside the door, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Why don't you come in?"

Shui Yue's expression was stunned.

"Isn't there a difference between men and women?"

As soon as Shui Yue's words came out, it was Ye Xuanchen who paused. After a while, Ye Xuanchen laughed inexplicably, and the more he laughed, the bigger he laughed.

"Hahaha......"

Looking at Ye Xuanchen, who laughed inexplicably, the look in Shui Yue's eyes flashed with a hint of puzzlement, well, why did he look so happy? Could it be that she said something wrong?

Moreover, she had never gone in when Ye Xuanchen was bathing before.

"Your Majesty, is Shui Yue wrong?"

Hearing Shui Yue's question, Ye Xuanchen paused and smiled, he raised his hand to hide the smile on his lips, and then shook his head. (To be continued......)
