Chapter 478 Regent, please stay (27)
The person who killed the shadow disappeared after assassinating the regent. The assassination was so important that it could not be hidden from the eyes of the emperor. After recovering from his injuries, Yanxu was summoned by the emperor to enter the palace.
Yun Qian watched Yanxu assign some tasks to Chenfeng in an orderly manner, and then walked to Yanxu after Chenfeng left.
"The emperor summoned you to the palace this time probably for the matter of killing the shadow." Yun Qian said firmly.
Yanxu held Yun Qian's hand and rubbed the back of Yun Qian's hand with his thumb, "Previously, the emperor didn't summon me to the palace because I was injured."
"Now that I have recovered, the Emperor naturally wants to know the details of what happened."
Hearing this, Yun Qian thought about the previous incident where the Shadow Killers wanted to assassinate the emperor. "I don't know much about the Emperor's back stabbing. I just think that the Shadow Killers were bold but cautious in their actions and did not leave any obvious traces." That’s all, his whereabouts are a mystery.”
Yanxu pondered for a moment and said: "It was midnight when the emperor was assassinated. I was not in the palace. I rushed over after receiving the news and the assassin had already run away. Except for the silver needle that was dropped during the attempted assassination, there was nothing else at the scene. .”
"So it is indeed much more difficult to investigate and solve the matter of Shadow Killing."
After saying this, Yanxu bowed his head and kissed Yun Qian, "Don't worry about this, I will take care of it."
Yun Qian covered Yan Xu's mouth, "Am I worried about those things? I'm worried that the Shadow Killer will come to assassinate you again."
Yanxu stared at Yun Qian for a few seconds, the corners of his mouth widening a little, then he grabbed Yun Qian's hand covering his mouth and pulled him into his arms.
Yanxu prefers this way of hugging. He is tall and can wrap his hands around the girl's slender waist when facing each other. He can hold the petite girl in his arms. He can lower his head and kiss the lips that he can't get enough of. He possesses his lover. Desire is particularly evident in hugs.
"They are indeed very similar." Yan Xu said in Yun Qian's ear with a smile.
Hearing the man's confusing words, Yun Qian was so angry that she raised her head and opened her mouth and bit Yan Xu's slender neck, but she still couldn't stop her curiosity, "What does it look like?"
"Like..." Yanxu drawled her tone teasingly, "The regent's princess, the mistress of the palace."
Yun Qian's face was filled with heat, "What are you talking about?"
"Is it nonsense?"
With her earlobe in her mouth, Yun Qian instantly softened and patted Yanxu's shoulder with the strength of a kitten, tickling Yanxu's heart.
"Okay... okay, if you wait any longer, you won't be able to enter the palace in time."

The emperor had a serious expression and looked at the zhezi in his hand. After reading them all, he threw the zhezi angrily on the table. Long Yan was furious.
"This little shady and shady person has been doing mischief under my nose several times!"
"Where did they put me?!"
Yanxu's eyebrows were indifferent and he didn't say a word to the emperor's rage.
Prime Minister Liu was different. He spoke hurriedly as soon as the emperor finished speaking: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Don't get so angry because of a bunch of scoundrels."
The intention was good, but the current emperor was angry and couldn't listen to what Prime Minister Liu said, and even said something to Prime Minister Liu: "The matter has come to this, how do you want me not to be angry??"
Prime Minister Liu shut up angrily.
"Send more manpower. This time I allow Liu Aiqing to participate in this matter. We must arrest all the remaining Shadow Killers as soon as possible!"
"Yes, I will definitely live up to the emperor's high expectations." Liu Cheng responded with great enthusiasm.
Yanxu never gave Prime Minister Liu a look from beginning to end. He just bowed his head slightly in response when the emperor made his decision.
"Okay, there's nothing else to do. Please step back." The emperor waved his hand. "The regent will stay here for a moment."
After the extra people left, the emperor and Yanxu were left standing facing each other in the imperial study.
The emperor walked down the steps slowly and slowly stood side by side with Yanxu, "How is your injury healing?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. He is almost fully recovered."
The emperor nodded, "Since your accident, I have always had a question in my mind. Is it right to leave the matter of killing the shadow to you?"
Yanxu narrowed her eyes, covering the flash of emotion in her eyes.
"Speaking of which, the first time I learned about Shadow Killing was because of you."
People in the Shadow Killing organization generally operate in secret, and not many people know about it, and even if they do know, most of them are capable people who are wandering around the world.
After all, not everyone can attract Shadow Killer's attention.
Killing Shadow accepts a bounty for killing, and he will kill whomever his employer wants him to kill. If he cannot do it, he will commit suicide to apologize.
"I sent secret guards to investigate secretly and found some clues. It seems that Prime Minister Liu was involved behind these things."
"The maze of twists and turns has given me a headache. I left you to talk alone just to give the regent a few words."
"The regent has certainly contributed a lot to helping me govern the country and bring peace to the country. The people also love you immensely, but there are some things... that you still need to understand clearly."
Yanxu could clearly hear the overt and covert temptations and pressure.
When an emperor first grows up, he already has his own thoughts and doubts, which is inevitable.
Yanxu just bent down and bowed, "Your Majesty said so."
.........
The hot water in the tub was steaming up, and the water reached the man's chest. Under his right shoulder, near his ribs, the black tattoo was soaked in water.
But what's unusual is that the black tattoo is covered by two dark red scars, and the scars are intertwined, like a big cross.
Yanxu opened his eyes in the heat, and his eyes were very bright with the water vapor, but now there was no emotion in his eyes, as if they were empty.
After a while, Yanxu stood up and wiped off the water on his body, put on his white coat, and walked out of the screen. Before he could put on his outer robe, the door was pushed open through a gap, and a sneaky head poked in, turning around several times. Find the person you are looking for.
Seeing that Yanxu was already dressed, Yun Qian said regretfully, "You take a shower so quickly."
Yanxu: "..."
Any slower and a certain little perverted cat will get his way.
Yanxu put on her outer robe, which was gathered loosely. The white tunic underneath was not tightly wrapped, leaving a small piece of skin exposed, which attracted people's imagination.
Yun Qian opened the door and walked in, whispering: "I should come earlier next time."
Yanxu couldn't help but laugh, and pulled the girl closer to his arms, rubbing the girl's face with the water that had not yet been wiped off her chin.
I was so disgusted by the girl, "My collar is all wet from you."
This smile filled Yanxu's eyes again, and there was no trace of the emptiness he had just had when he took a bath.
"Why are you coming to me now? If I remember correctly, today should be your father's holiday."
On Yun's father's holiday, Yun Qian had to stay at home.
Yun Qian smiled like a child who wanted to get candy: "Today, my father's friend invited him to go for a drink, but he didn't come back soon, so I sneaked out."
"What are you doing sneaking out?"
"The chef at home made some delicious pastries today. I'll bring them over for you to try too."
