"Regardless of anything else, there's one thing I have to warn you about!"
With those words, Liu Sheng's expression turned extrely serious.
"Please speak, Chief Eunuch!"
Chen Xuan also sat up straight instantly; if Liu Sheng was this serious, it must be extrely important.
"It's best if no one knows you've obtained the key, especially Qin Ying!"
"What do you an, Chief Eunuch..."
"Be cautious in your words!"
Liu Sheng's words left Chen Xuan in turmoil.
If that's really the case, then the person who killed Marquis Ning is actually Emperor Yu!
Suddenly!
Chen Xuan's face changed drastically; he had previously thought about helping Ning Xin rebuild the Ning Family, but now it seems... absolutely not!
At least not until he had the strength to stand against Great Yu!
Moreover, it seems Marquis Ning might have anticipated this long ago.
Another possibility is that Emperor Yu is too proud and disdainful to act against a marquis as a wise ruler!
Liu Sheng saw his expression and thought he was frightened, so he gently consoled, "This is just my guess, you just need to listen."
"Hmm!"
Chen Xuan collected his thoughts and nodded slowly.
"Oh, right!"
Liu Sheng rembered sothing, then stood up and went to a corner of the study. Monts later, he returned with a square box, "Take it!"
Chen Xuan took it, puzzled, and asked, "What is this...?"
"This is your reward from Your Majesty, a dozen Heaven-grade elixirs. I have no use for them, so I'm giving them to you."
"Hiss—"
Chen Xuan gritted his teeth and inhaled deeply; how could Heaven-grade elixirs be useless to him!
He was not just touched, he even felt like crying; the Chief Eunuch really treated him better than family.
He had the Liu Family behind him.
If these dozen Heaven-grade elixirs were used wisely, creating a master of seven levels or above would be simple.
Now they're all being given to him!
"Co on, as a man, are you going to cry?"
Liu Sheng teased him with a smile.
"How about keeping so for yourself, Sir?"
"No need!"
Liu Sheng refused, "Either I can't use them, or using them would be pointless!"
Two extres!
But indeed, he spoke the truth; for Great Yu to injure him enough to use Heaven-grade elixirs, it would certainly be capable of killing him.
So there's no need for him to use them at all.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan no longer declined; even if he didn't use them, he could give them to Xiaoqi.
Then he stood and respectfully bowed to Liu Sheng, "Thank you, Chief Eunuch!"
Liu Sheng calmly accepted his grand gesture.
He deserved it, and Chen Xuan should give it!
It was that simple, so he didn't stop him.
"Go, I still have a lot to do. This campaign against the Stone Race required too many local troops, Zhan Tian has no ti, and there are many things I need to handle, so I don't have ti for you. You can go to the Three Judicial Departnts, or go back, that's fine."
Indeed, with Zhan Tian in seclusion, many affairs fell to him.
Especially to guard against Hidden Kill.
"Then I must take my leave!"
Chen Xuan nodded slightly and then left the study.
In the study, Liu Sheng looked at a complete map of Great Yu on the wall, "Boy, I hope you won't put in a difficult position when the ti cos!"
Outside!
Chen Xuan had just walked a short distance from the study when he saw Kang Bai standing there, waiting for him, obviously.
When he saw him co out, he imdiately approached, lowering his voice to ask, "How did it go?"
"Had so tea, chatted a bit, should be all good now."
Hearing him say this, Kang Bai also breathed a long sigh of relief.
Seems the tough days are over.
"Good boy!"
Kang Bai slapped his shoulder hard, but then rembered sothing, felt it was inappropriate, and quickly withdrew his hand.
"What is this, Brother Kang...?"
Chen Xuan was puzzled by the sudden change.
"I dare not!"
"It won't be long before I call you Chief Eunuch."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan felt helpless.
Even the corner of his eye glanced in the direction of the study; the position of Chief Eunuch... he really didn't want it!
But Liu Sheng was not only kind to him, he had long treated him like his own descendant.
How could he refuse?!
"Such a headache!"
Chen Xuan shook his head helplessly.
"Let's go, no need to see off."
With that, Chen Xuan left the Ritual Departnt.
As for Kang Bai, he stood there with his brows slightly furrowed, "Is he not interested in the Chief Eunuch position?"
But instantly, he felt that this idea was extrely absurd!
Chief of the Ritual Departnt!
No interest?
Nonsense!
...
Chen Xuan casually walked on the streets of the Imperial City, pondering.
"Just what is inside this box?"
"Even Emperor Yu desires it?"
As Emperor of Great Yu, what could possibly tempt him?
Sothing for cultivation?
Other than that, he really couldn't think of any other possibilities.
If so...he must get the key.
"Da da da..."
Suddenly, a heavy and orderly marching sound ca from afar, drawing Chen Xuan's gaze.
Imperial Army!
Leading them was none other than Shen Chong, the commander of the Imperial Army.
He also noticed Chen Xuan, and their gazes briefly t.
Unexpectedly, Shen Chong actually nodded slightly at him.
"How strange!"
Chen Xuan smiled slightly; the two had quite a feud, after all, Chen Xuan had forced half of the Shen Family's masters to the Stone Cave.
Unexpectedly, Shen would now take the initiative to nod at him.
But as they say, one shouldn't hit a smiling face, so Chen Xuan nodded back.
The long procession of the Imperial Army, their heavy steps, and imposing aura made ordinary people bow their heads wherever they passed.
When a carriage from the Imperial Army passed by Chen Xuan's side,
Suddenly!
A powerful pressure suddenly appeared on his shoulders.
