The villain queen's close minister

"Lu Chen hasn't come back yet."

After taking a look at Lu Chen's house, Shi Nian Gu sighed slightly and returned to her room.

Ever since Lu Chen became the commander of the Xuanniao Division, his life has become one of going out early and returning late. Sometimes he even lives in the Xuanniao Division and is basically never seen.

The promise I made to her last time has become empty words.

Everything is obviously getting better, but why does it feel like it's getting further and further away?

She was a little puzzled.

Just as she was thinking about it, a maid suddenly came over to report that someone wanted to see her. Before Shi Nian Gu could respond, a figure walked straight in.

"Miss Shi, long time no see."

Su An walked into the room with a smile on her face.

"Who are you?" Shi Nian Gu looked at the man who broke in with some confusion, and became a little alert.

She felt that the man seemed familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him.

"Miss Shi, have you forgotten that I am Lu Chen's cousin Su An!" Su An moved a chair and sat opposite Shi Nian Gu in a familiar manner, "Speaking of which, I have to call you sister-in-law."

"Ah, really?"

Shi Nian Gu thought about it and it seemed that Lu Chen did have such a cousin. She immediately let down her guard and her face turned slightly red: "What sister-in-law, Lu Chen and I haven't gotten married yet."

Her mother had been very strict in educating her since she was a child, and she and Lu Chen had never had close contact until now. It was the first time someone called her sister-in-law.

Seeing the two of them talking, the maid tactfully retreated.

"We're already engaged." Su An smiled, "Besides, calling her sister-in-law is more intimate."

Shi Nian Gu's earlobes turned red, and she did not refute the title.

"Cousin, are you here to see Lu Chen today? He is not at home now."

"Of course not." Su An reached out and grasped Shi Nian Gu's small hand, which was soft and tender, as if holding a piece of warm jade, a pair of hands from a lady from a noble family, "I heard that my cousin's fiancée is both talented and beautiful, gentle and virtuous, and is one of the four great beauties in the imperial capital, so I came here specially to see her."

"After meeting my sister-in-law today, I realized that the rumors were too conservative."

"I'm not as good as you say."

Shi Nian Gu let Su An play with her slender jade fingers that even Lu Chen had never touched, and lowered her head slightly.

[My cousin Suan is a close person, and some physical contact is normal behavior, there is no need to feel disgusted]

"Sister-in-law, there is no need to belittle yourself." Su An solemnly wrapped Shi Nian Gu's hand in his palm along her smooth arm: "Sister-in-law's skillful hands alone are enough to rank among the top three among all the women I have ever seen. Unfortunately..."

Shi Nian Gu's hands were indeed rare and beautiful, slender, plump and fair, with delicate jade fingers that seemed to be carved out of white jade, truly a unique sight.

"Is it really that beautiful?" Shi Nian Gu felt a little happy when she was praised. Few people had praised her like this before.

When Su An said it was a pity, she was immediately interested and asked curiously, "What's a pity?"

Su An smiled: "What a pity..."

Just like this, the two of them started a lively conversation.

He calls her sister-in-law and cousin.

It was as if we had known each other for many years, and there was no sign of strangeness at all.

Shi Nian Gu only felt that this cousin was quite interesting, and what he said always matched her thoughts. She really developed a close feeling towards her cousin Su An, and even the slight loneliness caused by Lu Chen's absence was alleviated.

The distance between the two people was getting closer and closer, until they were less than a finger's length apart.

Even Lu Chen had never been so close.

However, Shi Nian Gu didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Her cousin Su An was a relative, so it was normal to be closer to him.

As for Lu Chen, the two have not yet become husband and wife, so naturally they need to keep their distance.

Before they knew it, it was getting dark. The two chatted for a long time and almost forgot the passage of time.

"By the way, why haven't I seen my cousin?" Su An asked.

Shi Nian Gu's expression suddenly fell a little when she heard this, and there was a little more disappointment on her soft face: "Your cousin Lu Chen is now a captain of the Xuanniao Division. He stays in the Xuanniao Division all day long. I don't know when he will be able to come back."

"I see."

Su An nodded, showing an annoyed look, and kept slapping Shi Nian Gu's thigh: "Alas, this matter is related to me."

"Ah?" Shi Nian Gu was a little confused. What did this have to do with her cousin?

Su An stopped patting, put his hand on the soft thigh and explained: "I am the deputy commander of Xuanniao Division. When my cousin came to me and said he wanted to find something to do, I arranged for him to work in Xuanniao Division. I didn't expect that it would prevent my sister-in-law from reuniting with my cousin."

His face was filled with sorrow, and his hands unconsciously began to pinch, "I have sinned deeply!"

"Don't say that." Shi Nian Gu hurriedly held Su An's hand and shook her head, "Since this is Lu Chen's own request, how can I blame you."

Then she hesitated again, with a somewhat pleading look: "Cousin, you are Lu Chen's boss, can you help me get him back earlier?"

"He always says he's busy, but I don't think other monks working in the Xuanniao Division are as busy as him."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. I'll take care of this matter." Su An patted his chest and agreed.

Su An waited until the moon was at its highest point in the sky and made an appointment to come back next time before leaving the Lu family.

Shi Nian Gu closed the door, sat on the edge of the bed, and lifted her skirt.

There were some red marks on her thighs and her chest was slightly swollen.

"My cousin is really something. Why does he like to be close to me so much?"

Although she said this, she did not dislike Su An.

I talked with my cousin today and I really felt that we got along quite well. It would be better if we could visit each other more often and get closer in the future.

Her magical power worked and soon the red marks disappeared. Then she closed the door and replaced sleep with practice.

In the Xuanniao Division,

Lu Chen looked at the files piled up in front of him that filled up half of the room and smiled bitterly.

It seems that I can't go back tonight. I just hope that Aunt Nian won't be angry.

He also had to work harder to win Su An's trust as soon as possible and get rid of these complicated tasks.

Chapter 146: External Dao and Internal Demon

……

In the deserted state of Da Shang, a long pursuit was gradually coming to an end.

"Why, why won't you let me go?"

Tang Dachui shouted loudly, and held the hammer handle across his body to block the sharp knife light. He staggered and almost fell to the ground. His body had reached its limit.

Three Chunyang warriors caught up and surrounded Tang Dachui.

"If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for offending someone you shouldn't have offended." One of the tall and thin Chunyang men chuckled.

Another short-haired black bird Si Chunyang also snorted coldly, "Tang Dachui, as a fugitive, it's ok for you not to hide your identity, but you dare to openly intercept criminals in the imperial capital. How many lives do you think you have?"

Although the Xuanniao Division had hunted down Tang Dachui for a while, the Queen Mother only mentioned it casually at the time and didn't even mention the crime, so the Xuanniao Division only carried out a symbolic pursuit. After Tang Dachui changed his identity, the Xuanniao Division was too lazy to investigate.

But today is different from the past.

The Empress Dowager has achieved the status of a noble soul and is also the biological mother of the current emperor. Although her status has not changed, her authority has greatly increased.

Moreover, this time Tang Dachui robbed criminals from the Imperial City Bureau in the imperial capital, and he could not deny it.

With Su An's encouragement, Tang Dachui was once again hunted down by the Xuanniao Division.

"You are using your numbers to bully the few, what's the point of that!" Tang Dachui supported himself on the ground with the big hammer in his hand and looked at the three Chunyangs with gritted teeth.

If he hadn't been injured before and hadn't suffered the loss of energy and blood from sending Xiaochuan to the Death Canyon, he wouldn't have been in such a mess.

"Are you stupid?"

The tall and thin Chunyang looked at Tang Dachui with a strange expression and couldn't help laughing: "You are just a lowly criminal."

Want a one-on-one fight? Does he consider it as a challenge?

Tang Dachui's chest kept heaving, and the old wounds in his body and the new wounds from the chase made him ache all over.

The meridians in his body felt a dull pain and swelling, telling him that it was time to rest.

If he continued to fight, he would definitely die. His body could no longer support him to do it again.

But, how could he, the great Lord Da Hammer, be willing to be a prisoner?

"Drink it, the Great Crazy Hammer Technique!"

The hand holding the hammer handle suddenly clenched, and Tang Dachui squeezed the last bit of magic power in his body to once again display the Iron Hammer Sect's unique skills.

Endless strong winds moved with the swinging of the iron hammer, and Tang Dachui stood in the strong winds, like a madman.

Blood flowed out of his seven orifices, staining his face red, but he didn't care and rushed towards the three people like a madman, what a scoundrel.

"Let's give him a ride."

Short-haired Chunyang sighed slightly. After all, Lord Dachui was once a powerful man who was famous in the Shang Dynasty.

Regardless of other things, this strength is worthy of respect.

If he hadn't offended the wrong person, perhaps he really would have had a chance to break through to the Pure Yang and enter the Yuan Shen realm.

The three of them attacked together.

Boom.

Amid the loud explosions, mountains and rivers were shattered, vegetation was destroyed, and endless smoke and dust covered the place.

The setting sun in the sky gradually disappeared, as if foreshadowing the end of a strong man.

"Tang Dachui, be executed!"

……

"Little Eight!"

In a secret cave in the Death Canyon, Tang Chuan suddenly woke up.

His weak body and the dim light around him made him feel uncomfortable. The strong smell of blood and stench made him frown. "Where is this place?"

As the Lord of the Blue Sea, the Lord of the Sea who fought against the Dragon Clan, the Great God of Fairness and Justice who seized control of the Void God Clan, and the Most Merciful and Benevolent Buddha Lord Tang, he had never suffered such injustice.

At this time, two footsteps were heard outside.

"Hey, brother, that guy is really weird. He has just arrived and he has killed twelve killers in succession. Could he really get out of the Death Canyon?" The shrill voice was questioning.

Another voice was even more gruff, "Haha, the other Slayers have united to capture him. That guy won't be able to stay alive for long."

Neither of them noticed the cave and they walked away.

"Killing Trial, this is the Death Canyon!"

Tang Chuan gradually came to his senses. Wasn't this the same environment where he used to live in the Death Canyon?

"But didn't I destroy this place a long time ago? Could it be that..."

He checked his surroundings.

After about a quarter of an hour, Tang Chuan finally confirmed that he was truly reborn.

"I never thought that I would go back to the past after wasting my life's energy to save Xiao Ba."

"That's great. At this time, Xiao Ba should still be alive and sent to the Falling Star Forest by his father. Xiao Ba, I can finally meet you again."

Tang Chuan's body was shaking with excitement.

Although he didn't know why, the reality was somewhat different from the past in his memory, and he was unable to awaken the bloodline of Honeysuckle, but it didn't matter.

This time he will definitely be able to achieve eternal life with his little Hachi!

"Xiao Ba, I will never let you leave me again this time."

"We will be together forever, for all eternity!"

A happy smile appeared on Tang Chuan's face.
