"Chi, don't leave me, don't leave me ever, okay?" It was as if she was afraid that the scene in her dreams would become a reality, that he would go further and further away from her.

She hugged him tightly, not wanting to let go even for a second.

"I promise you, I won't leave you, but you must promise me that you won't leave me for the rest of your life, and even more so, you can't betray me …" Helian Shan lifted her face from his embrace and implicitly asked her to promise him.

Cen Xue didn't even think before nodding her head. At this moment, he was the only one she could rely on.

Helian Lie gently caressed her belly. Before the evidence was confirmed, he would not let himself impulsively make a decision. He would definitely find out the truth. How could he not be Helian Shan's child? Then, he absolutely could not be born!

He thought about it for a very long time. He couldn't let Cen Xue leave his side and he could even accept her, but he definitely wouldn't accept her having another man's child!

He dared to lay his hands on the woman of Helian Shan. Very well, this man no longer needed to remain in this world.

"Li Shi, no matter what happens in the future, I want you to stay by my side, okay?" Cen Xue looked at his calm face and felt that there was something wrong with him tonight. However, she couldn't pinpoint exactly what was wrong with him.

He lowered his head and kissed her red lips, softly saying, "Idiot, don't worry. No matter what happens, you will always be by your side. You can only be by your side …"

"Yes." Cen Xue weakly replied before she once again buried herself in his embrace.

Dance Hall...

Xuanwu had been ordered to go out of the palace in secret to investigate the matter of the queen before she entered the palace. This dance hall was the only place that could be connected with the queen before she entered the palace.

When Sai Jinhua heard that someone from the palace had come, she went downstairs to take a look. It turned out to be the guard that had been by Cen Xue's side that day. Could it be because of Liu'er's death?

"If my guess is correct, this must be a guard from the palace, right?" Sakyamuni said as he walked down the stairs to him.

Black Turtle looked at the charming woman and said politely, "I have official matters to attend to today. I hope the owner can cooperate."

"Oh? What is it that requires the Lord Protector to personally visit such a mysterious place? How can I use this little woman here? Sai Jinhua naturally knew that Black Turtle was one of his king's men. Since it was a public service, it was very likely that the king had sent him out to do something. Could it be that Cen Xue was in trouble again at the palace?

Is it really possible? Right now, she had the dragon seed and was sitting steadily at the back. The king doted on her and she was the only one in the imperial harem, so how could there be anyone else who would try to spoil and spoil her?

"Actually, it's nothing much. It's just that the Queen said that she left some things here for me to retrieve for her. I just wonder if Owner has thrown away her things after so long?" Black Turtle had come out in secret this time, so he naturally couldn't ask directly.

"So it's this matter. I don't dare to throw the Empress's things away. Although there aren't many things, I've always kept them for her. Lord Protector, come with me. The items have always been kept in my room." The Sai Jinhua did not think so, it turned out to be such a small matter.

After Cen Xue entered the palace, her original room was given to Bicky to stay in. Her things were then packed together in a box, just in case she came back one day to retrieve them.

Sai Jinhua led Black Turtle upstairs to his room, poured him a cup of tea and told him to sit down, then went to find the wooden box.

"Look, it's this box. The Empress doesn't have many things, just a few sets of clothes and a few pieces of jewelry. Take a look at what the Empress is looking for." The Sai Jinhua opened the box. It was very simple inside, there were only a few things inside.

Black Turtle stood up and looked at the things inside. There were clothes, jewelry, rouge, and a small porcelain bottle …

"Is that all you have, Empress? "Then how did the Empress come to the dance floor?" Black Turtle picked up the small porcelain bottle and sniffed it. It seemed to contain the smell of magic medicine.

"All of them are here. That's all. Every once in a while, our Dancing Pavilion will recruit dancers. This lady is one of them." Naturally, the Sai Jinhua would not tell him that Cen Xue was the person she specially picked to nurture her into the palace.

"So that's how it is. Then how much did you know about the Empress's previous affairs?" Black Turtle put down the porcelain bottle, picked up the box of rouge and asked.

"About that, I don't know. The Empress never mentioned it to me, and ever since she entered this dance floor, she has practiced dancing everyday and never talked about her private matters with us. I have asked her about it, but the Empress has refused to say anything, and ever since then, I have never asked again." Sai Jinhua looked up at Black Turtle, not understanding what he was asking.

Black Turtle closed the box on the table and held it in his hand. Since he couldn't find anything here, he didn't want to waste any more time.

"Alright, then Black Turtle won't disturb us any longer. I'll head back to report to the Empress and take my leave!"

"Then let this young woman see you off. In the future, I'll have to ask the lord guard to mention our dance floor!" Sai Jinhua said with a charming smile.

Although Xuanwu was not a distinguished official, he was the king and queen's personal bodyguard. Sometimes, it would be better to ask them to be safe than sorry.

Sai Jinhua sent Black Turtle to the door with a face full of enthusiasm. She only turned back when Black Turtle's fast horse disappeared from her sight.

Once the Black Tortoise entered the palace, he immediately brought the chest to the imperial study. Only Helian Zhang and Black Tortoise knew about this matter, even Zhao Chang De and He Lian Shan did not tell him anything, nor did they intend to tell him anything.

"Your Majesty, this item was taken from the owner of the Dancing Pavilion. He said that the Empress had left it at the dance floor, and that the owner had kept it in this small wooden chest all this time without touching it." Black Turtle then handed over the wooden chest. The wooden chest wasn't big, and it was placed squarely in front of Helian Shan.

"Did you find out anything?" Helian Zhang looked at the box and asked coldly.

"The owner said that the Empress was only one of those who went to vote for the dancers, and later on when they entered the dancers' hall, the Empress would never tell anyone about her private affairs. Even the owner had not said a single word to the owner of the dancers, not even where the Empress came from or who she was." Black Turtle truthfully reported what he had heard from the Sai Jinhua.

He opened the box and saw the contents inside at a glance, but the small black porcelain bottle caught his attention. He took it out from the box, opened the lid and took a whiff, and frowned. There was actually the smell of magic medicine, which was very common in Doctor Keser's palace. These things usually had a certain amount of medicinal strength, so they would definitely not be used carelessly. What's the use?

"Black Turtle, go get the High Priest." Blackwood Zana, she must know what this is.

"Yes …"

After Xuanwu left, Helian Lie looked at other things. They were a set of clothes, but the material of these clothes was not something an ordinary person could afford. These materials were the brocades that were offered by a foreign tribe. Furthermore, all of these jewelry were extremely exquisite, and were definitely not something an ordinary family could afford.

He observed carefully. Suddenly, in an inconspicuous place, Helian Lie saw the mark of a treasure trove belonging to the palace. Was this jewel the treasure trove from Lou Lan's palace? Then why did it appear in Cen Xue's hands?

A series of questions? Helian Lie asked Cen Xue so many questions, who was she exactly? Where did he come from?

Other than these, there was also a box of rouge. Helian Lie opened the lid. Although he did not understand these things, looking at the color of the rouge and the fragrance it emitted, it must be a precious item.

Cen Xue was just a small dancer before she entered the palace, how could she possibly have such a precious item?

He still remembered what she said to him that night. With the truth in front of his eyes, could it be that Cen Xue had been lying to him from the very beginning?

"The High Priest offers an audience …" Outside, Blackwood Zana had arrived.

"Pass …" Helian Shan urgently wanted to know what was in this bottle right now?

Zana walked into the royal study and respectfully greeted him: "Zana greets the king!"

"Forget it. Come over here and take a look at what's in this bottle." Helian Lie ordered her to step forward and place the porcelain bottle in her hands.

Zana opened the bottle and sniffed the air. It was actually a potion?

"What exactly is this thing?" Helian Shan looked at her as if she already knew what it was.

"Your Majesty, if a girl who isn't a virgin drinks this pill, when they interacted that night, the man will mistake her for a virgin and become red." Zana simply, but straight to the point, told him in detail about the effects of the potion.

"What? It's actually like this?" Helian Lie stood up angrily. Could it be that Cen Xue …

"However, this potion hasn't been effective for long. It needs to be mixed with wine before it can be fully used." Zana added.

When Helian Shan heard this, his entire body was startled. He understood, he finally understood …

So that night, she wasn't so nervous that she wanted to relax after drinking. In fact, she just wanted to drink to let the effects of the drug fully take effect. She wasn't a virgin at all.

"Scram..." Get out! " He just wanted to calm down and yell at Zana.

Every movement of Black Turtle was under her watch. The king had sent people to monitor her, and she had also sent people to monitor them. Don't think that she was someone who would be easily manipulated by others.

She could completely understand the king's feelings. When she smelled the magic medicine just now, it really gave her a fright. Could it be that the queen had already had an affair with the Third Marquis before she even entered the palace?

Zha Na tactfully left. The current situation was exactly what she wanted to see the most. She didn't expect even the Heavens to help her. Hahaha …
