For the first time in so many days, he saw the Empress herself. The queen was eating porridge with a newspaper next to her, wearing the black uniform of a faculty member of Nanjing University, but with an emerald emblem pinned to her chest. Sitting next to her in a narrow dress was Shang Gong, about 35 years old, wearing round-framed gold-rimmed glasses, and his neat hairstyle was only embellished with silver hairpins like chopsticks, which was more practical than decorative. Although the two are dressed very closely, the master-slave relationship can be distinguished at a glance through the details.

It's just the faintly bulging muscles in the shoulders, and it can be seen that this Shang Gong is definitely not easy to match. Shang Luo could directly see that she was a qi practitioner, and because she was well maintained, her actual age was a little older than she looked.

As a private secretary, Shang Gong will always maintain a synchronized schedule with the queen. Although it was just 4 o'clock in the morning, she also got up with the queen. Next to the queen, she also eats the same breakfast as the queen.

"Your Majesty." After Zhu Xianene entered the door, Shang Gong stood up.

"Well, sit down Song Shanggong. Let me introduce you to me, this is my junior brother. He patted Shang Luo on the shoulder, "File him away, and he won't have to report when he goes in and out later." ”

"Senior brother?" Song Shanggong looked at Shang Luo - as a qi practitioner, of course she knew the meaning of this sentence "junior brother". Because there is only one person who can really be called Zhu Xianene's master. Zhu Xianene's Dan Dao was taught by Daozu himself, which was extremely rare among the Sons of Heaven in the past dynasties, because whether the Son of Heaven had the talent to practice qi also depended on fate.

Zhu Xianen's junior brother means that

She knew who it was. This is the unicorn that fell from the sky.

She leaned into the queen's ear and whispered a few words to her.

Hearing the introduction, the queen raised her head and glanced at Shang Luo, who also saw her eyes: there were two dark circles under her eyes, and the queen's face was the same as that of a panda. She was tired, she looked tired at first glance. It's not the fatigue of one night, it looks like the accumulation of the last few days. A cup of strong tea is still steaming, and the porridge has not been drunk twice, and the tea has been drunk for more than half of it.

"Hello." The queen nodded at him weakly, "Did you rest well yesterday?" ”

Although she was tired, she still said hello.

Shang Luo hurriedly returned the gift. This one is very tired at first glance, and it seems that he has not rested enough recently. After all, she didn't come back until seven or eight o'clock, and she had to get ready to get up before four o'clock in the morning. A "time management master" like Shang Luo can fall asleep and wake up at the end of the day. But most people have to brew when they sleep, and they have to brew when they get up, and her rest time is obviously not enough.

After sitting down to eat, he sat opposite the Song Shang Palace. The other party didn't look at her either, just lowered his head and ate in small bites, keeping the rhythm synchronized with the queen, neither faster nor slower than her.

"Why don't you take a leave of absence today?" Zhu Xianen, who was sitting in the middle, proposed, "How do you go to school when you are trapped like this?" ”

"Don't worry, don't worry, anyway, Sister Ah Shan is driving, and I don't drive it. Recent experiments are important, and you must not take a leave of absence today. The Xuanzi 95 Institute on the Gobi is still waiting for us to return data, and the progress of several institutes over there has accelerated recently, and our side is getting busier and busier. Can you lend us the big difference machine of the Yellow Book Library? There are not enough calculators, after all, they are all part-time students. ”

"I asked, and it should be possible. I'll get you some more people from the Yellow Book. When this time is over, do you want to take a vacation? Where do we go around? ”

"Nanyang." The queen raised her head, "I'm going to Sin Chew to eat curry shrimp, I'm going to eat all-you-can-eat." Don't want anything else, just shrimp curry. ”

"No problem, no problem. How long is it expected to be over there? ”

"Probably. Ahh She rubbed her head, "Sister Ashan, how long is it left?" ”

Song Shanggong immediately replied: "It is expected that the results will be seen in the middle of next month, and the real results can also be seen in this year." But you have to wait for the progress of the water dragon, otherwise there is no way to put it at a safe distance. After all, full-scale experiments cannot be carried out even in the Gobi Desert. ”

"Understood. Come on. ”

"Forget it, let's eat this today." She picked up the porridge bowl and drank the remaining small half bowl, "I'm trying not to work overtime tonight." See you in the evening. ”

"See you in the evening."

"Sister Ashan, help me take the bag, the one next to my bed, I forgot to bring it down. I'll wait for you in the car first. ”

With a gust of wind, the two men left.

"They're so busy," Shang Luo was shocked.

"Actually, I wasn't so busy before. It's just that the progress of the experiment on the Gobi Desert has been accelerated, and many research units in Beijing have also had to speed up. ”

"What is the research direction under the middle palace, the chemistry of evil qi?"

"No, she and I are in the same class, both from the chemical engineering department. Their unit is only responsible for some surrounding process research, and does not have direct contact with evil qi. There are thousands of research units like theirs across the country, and the study of evil qi is a spectacle that mobilizes the power of the whole country. ”

"I said that there will be progress next month, is it going to explode?"

"There is a small-scale 'cross-critical' experiment, which will be carried out on the Gobi Desert. When that experiment is over, we will be able to set off a big firework this year. Actually, it wasn't that fast before, but after this small accident allowed us to verify the effect of evil qi and high-concentration aura, the research progress was greatly accelerated. This part is your head work. ”

"Ah, no, isn't it, didn't you make the sea of concentrated qi yourself, Your Majesty the Son of Heaven?"

"I'm just copying your recipe, at most I'm just industrializing it. Of course, the head work is yours, and we will not forget it - as for myself, I am confident that I can make something as powerful, so I will not touch your light. By the way, how does this hoof taste? This is not a faux meal, this is the imperial dining room. ”

"Feel, it's about the same?"

"The stews are actually pretty much the same, after all, they are prepared in advance and put on the stove to be heated, so you can take them when you want to eat them. That's why when I was a child, I loved to eat hooves the most, because there was nothing delicious except for braised dishes such as hooves. You eat slowly, don't be in a hurry. Hungry? I don't think you were that hungry last night. Had a good night's sleep and was appetizing, right? That'll give you an extra copy. You can eat as much as you want, anyway, the imperial dining room is all pre-made dishes. ”

In front of Yuxi Palace, Zhu Xianene and Shang Luo got out of the car. The Jinyi guard who was waiting next to them helped them move the car to the parking space and opened the outer door of Yuxi Palace.

However, as soon as I entered the door, a "knock" came out.

"What do you mean?" Shang Luo didn't quite understand. Because no matter what the news is, it is a chime.

"When you enter the door, you knock on the chime, so that we can wait for a while. Probably the Emperor Ancestor has something to do inside, and he has to discuss it with Zhang Tianshi and them first. Sit down, you know? Recently, there are a lot of fun games in the Feixin card, come on, let's play Alloy Egghead, I've already played the first level! I'm very confident. ”
