The dragon armor bowed its hands in response.

The bedroom of Concubine Liu Gui in the Imperial Palace.

It was late at night, which should have been the quietest and quietest time of the day, when a black figure flashed behind the curtains of the palace and soon arrived at Concubine Liu Gui's big bed.

She gently pushed the sleeping Concubine Liu Gui.

Concubine Liu Gui was pushed awake and looked at the figure beside her.

Then Concubine Liu Gui frowned and lowered her voice: "Why are you here?"

The voice that came out was that of a woman, "Toffee, the master of the Dragon Scale Guard has succeeded."

"what!"

Concubine Liu Gui couldn't help but exclaimed.

The old King of Zhenbei died suddenly, so since his death, the Dragon Scale Guard has been leaderless.

Although the Dragon Scale Guards are secret guards of the royal family, their mission is to support the country and help the king who is really beneficial to Dawu.

When the late emperor was in power, the owner of the Dragon Scale Guard, King Zhenbei, was of the same mind as the late emperor, so the dragon scale guard was naturally used by the late emperor.

If the current emperor goes against the grain, the master of the Dragon Scale Guard will also have the power to slay the dragon.

Because of this, the Dragon Scale Guard, a royal secret force, should not be underestimated.

Back then, in order to weaken the late emperor's power, she asked the spy who had finally been embedded in the Dragon Scale Guard to poison the old Zhenbei King.

The old Zhenbei King died so suddenly that he didn't even have time to name the next master of the Dragon Scale Guard.

According to the rules of the Dragon Scale Guard, the next leader is the candidate designated by the current leader. After a year of inspection, he can succeed after passing the test. If the current leader dies without appointing a qualified candidate, the successor will be the descendant of the current leader.

The remaining leaders of the Dragonscale Guard choose one of the adult descendants of the deceased leader to become the new leader.

It was precisely because she was afraid of the Dragon Scale Guard that Concubine Liu Gui went to great lengths to secretly poison Xie Xuanye.

Without the leader, the Dragon Scale Guard's power had been dormant for so many years, and she had the opportunity to leverage some of it for her own use.

Otherwise, how could Prince Ping develop secretly under the nose of the Regent.

Concubine Liu Gui looks brainless on the outside, but she is actually much more thoughtful than the Princess Regent.

The brainless appearance is just her protective color.

"Isn't he poisoned? How can he still take over?"

A woman's voice sounded, "According to the rules of the Dragon Scale Guard, as long as he is still alive and the only heir of the North King of Old Town, he has the right to take over."

"Have you noticed anything strange about Xie Xuanye?"

Concubine Liu Gui was very sensitive and suspicious. Xie Xuanye had never thought of taking over as Dragon Scale Guard before, so why did she suddenly take over now? Did something happen? It's just that she hasn't noticed yet?

The shadow woman shook her head, "Not yet?"

"Has he had any poisonous attacks in the past six months?"

The shadow woman thought for a while and said: "I know that he had an attack half a year ago. If Song Yuan hadn't taken action that time, he might not have survived."

Upon hearing the news, Concubine Liu Gui breathed a long sigh of relief.

As long as the poison is still there, Xie Xuanye won't be able to do anything even if he takes over Dragon Scale.

With his shabby body, if he lived for another year or two, it would be a big deal. In the future, he might not even be able to use his kung fu, and he would be no different from a disabled person, not to mention the fact that he was said to be extremely ugly.

Qin Shuhuang must also dislike him. He is in poor health, and the two of them are destined to have no children. As long as Xie Xuanye is killed unknowingly, the Dragon Scale Guard will be hers sooner or later!
  "What tasks did he assign to the Dragon Scale Guard after he took over?" Concubine Liu Gui asked coldly.

"King Chaping." Concubine Liu Gui:...

This Xie Xuanye started to fight with her as soon as he came up, because he thought he lived too long!
  "What else did you find out?"

The shadowed woman lowered her voice, "Xie Xuanye ordered Long Jia to investigate the death of King Bei of Old Town in private."

Concubine Liu Gui was stunned, "Did Long Jia find out anything?"

The shadowed woman shook her head, "Not yet. I did it very carefully back then. This matter is not easy to find out. There is one more thing."

Concubine Liu Gui was a little impatient, "Say it all in one go!"

"My subordinates discovered that the relationship between the eldest princess and Xie Xuanye is not as bad as it seems to outsiders. If the two of them cooperate, coupled with the power of the Dragon Scale Guard, I am afraid it will be detrimental to the concubine and Prince Ping."

Concubine Liu Gui did not expect that Qin Shuhuang, who was married for the second time, could actually get along with Xie Xuanye, the crippled king!
  This matter is really a headache for her.

After thinking for a moment, a flash of light flashed in Concubine Liu Gui's eyes. She let the shadowed woman come closer and whispered a few words in her ear.

After hearing this, the shadow woman immediately handed over her hands and said, "I understand."

Early the next morning, Mrs. Rongguo, Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Xue, Mrs. Liu and others came to the princess's mansion to visit Qin Shuhuang.

After Qin Shuhuang warmly entertained them, he sent Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Liu away in the afternoon, leaving only Mrs. Rongguo in the eldest princess's mansion.

Taking this opportunity, Qin Shuhuang got close to her aunt.

All the good things brought back from Guangnan and Beidi were given to Mrs. Guo.

Not only that, he also asked Mrs. Rongguo to have a safe pulse. When she saw that Mrs. Rongguo looked better than before and her pulse was stable, she felt relieved.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Shuhuang rested in the eldest princess's mansion for three days.

Xie Xuanye stayed with her while disguised as Xuan Cang during the day, and at night he resumed his identity as King Zhenbei and slept with her in bed.

Xie Xuanye was afraid that she would be nauseated by the fishy smell, so he specially ordered the chef of Liu Yuchu in the palace to personally prepare meals for Qin Shuhuang.

After the two of them finished their dinner, Xie Xuanye brought another bowl of sweet soup to relieve Qin Shuhuang's tiredness.

Qin Shuhuang didn't want to eat, so Xie Xuanye sat on the couch, took Qin Shuhuang into his arms, picked up the small bowl, and personally fed Qin Shuhuang spoonful by spoonful.

After finally drinking half a bowl of sweet soup, Qin Shuhuang didn't want to eat anymore. She couldn't help but glance at Xie Xuanye angrily, "Xie Xuanye, why didn't I think you were so domineering before!"

Xie Xuanye exerted a little force on his arms, and Qin Shuhuang's whole body was embedded in his arms, and his warm body enveloped her whole body.

Xie Xuanye's chin gently pressed on Qin Shuhuang's shoulder, and he exhaled hot breath.

He said quietly: "I never dared to think that I could stay with His Highness like this before."

Thinking of Xie Xuanye's ending in his previous life, Qin Shuhuang suddenly softened his heart.

She let Xie Xuanye hold her and rested her entire back on his arms.

With the two of them cuddling so closely, both Qin Shuhuang and Xie Xuanye felt extremely at ease.

Xie Xuanye thought of the news that Xie Zhuo and Xie Cheng had just inquired about, "Your Highness, Gu Hongchao has returned from Beidi alive. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to return to the capital in more than a day."

Xie Xuanye originally wanted to get information about Gu Hongchao in Beidi and deal with him to prevent any trouble in the future.

But Long Jia didn't find any news about Gu Hongchao in Beidi King City, so he gave up.

I just didn't expect that Gu Hongchao would be able to come back from Beidi King City if his life was so tough!
  Now that he and Qin Shuhuang had a child, in order to accumulate virtue for the unborn child, Xie Xuanye did not want to kill people casually, so he told Qin Shuhuang the news and let Qin Shuhuang make the decision.

When he said the words "Gu Hongchao", Xie Xuanye looked at Qin Shuhuang nervously, fearing that Qin Shuhuang still had a hint of concern in his eyes.

Xie Xuanye's nervous mood relaxed slightly when he found that there was no other emotion in Qin Shuhuang's eyes except surprise. (End of chapter)
