C115 Give Heavy Tasks

"As expected, that bead of blood was still lost. Just what use does it have to make people so daring to actually not be afraid of the crime of decapitating." She still tried to ask Xuanyuan Zhan a question, trying to figure out what he wanted from his mouth.

Hearing Feng Yu's words, Xuanyuan Zhan's eyes flashed. After a few coughs, he said: "That's right, you're too audacious. However, Yu Er, how have you been in the Phoenix Palace for the past few days? Did you get hold of any more evidence against Second Madame? "

Feng Yu stared at Xuanyuan Zhan with a deeper meaning. She didn't think that Xuanyuan Zhan would directly change the topic, and was a little disappointed.

Feng Yu got up and walked to the side. "What else can we do? It's not interesting at all! " Feng Yu was also not planning to tell Xuanyuan Zhan what he found out in a fit of rage.

Xuanyuan Zhan knew that Feng Yu was a little angry, but he did not plan to tell Feng Yu about the blood bead. He was afraid that Feng Yu would know too much and would cause unnecessary trouble, not to mention that the ancient town had not truly been investigated.

"I can't believe there's no meaning in staying in the Feng Palace. I might as well return quickly. I don't see you and Dou Dou everyday, so my heart feels empty and empty!"

Xuanyuan Zhan walked to Feng Yu's side, held her hand, and gently rubbed it.

Feng Yu's previous anger had not yet subsided, because she felt that there was still a barrier between Xuanyuan Zhan and herself. Feng Yu had always felt that Xuanyuan Zhan was hiding something from her, but Feng Yu did not know what it was.

In modern times, everyone said that she gave herself a sense of security and that no one would give her a sense of security. However, in this environment, no matter how powerful Feng Yu was, she still wanted a man to rely on. After making contact for such a long time, Feng Yu thought that she had found Xuanyuan Zhan, thought that Xuanyuan Zhan was that man, but now it seems that Xuanyuan Zhan did not completely trust her. If Feng Yu knew of Xuanyuan Zhan's intentions, he wouldn't think like this.

"No!" Now is not the time! " Feng Yu, who had mixed feelings for Xuanyuan Zhan, raised his head and looked at him. His tone was very firm, as if he was throwing a tantrum with Xuanyuan Zhan.

Xuanyuan Zhan sighed, and did not say anything else. After staying with Feng Yu for a while, they returned to the Battle King Manor.

After Xuanyuan Zhan left, Feng Yu sat in her room and didn't sleep at all. There was something that made her unable to sleep because she had something to do with him. What exactly was this blood bead that she had asked Xuanyuan Zhan about a few times, but to no avail. Feng Yu sighed, thinking that the loss of this blood bead must have something to do with the black-clothed man in the cave, because they were just lacking this thing! Could it be that the man in black had already succeeded in his experiment? The consequences would be unimaginable! Feng Yu's mood was unfathomable. It seemed that she was destined to have no sleep tonight.

Early morning on the second day, Xuanyuan Zhan dressed neatly and entered the palace.

Dry Clear Palace

Inside the palace, the emperor sat majestically in the imperial court, wearing a robe embroidered with dragons and a golden crown. His face was somewhat solemn, and his eyes shone with a cold light as he watched the ministers below.

None of the ministers said anything. It seemed that the emperor had just gotten angry inside the palace.

"What is it? Was there no one who could come up with a solution? My Xiao Country has no less than a few hundred people, is there nothing we can do? " The Emperor asked angrily.

To be honest, the loss of this drop of blood was not that big of a deal. The key point was that it was the treasure that could control the country. The ancient people had always been superstitious about the loss of this drop of blood, which meant that the country was about to be destroyed! So how could the Emperor not be angry?

The emperor's face was livid, but no one spoke up. Xuanyuan Zhan was one of them, he had always maintained a low profile in the imperial court, trying his best not to fight with the crown prince, so as to prevent the emperor from looking down on him, Xuanyuan Zhan decided to wait upon him.

"Reporting to your majesty, this subject believes that if the blood bead had been in the treasury all this time, why did it suddenly disappear? This thief must have been someone from the palace and should have sealed off all the doors of the palace to investigate the various places in the palace." The Prime Minister took a step forward and made his own suggestion.

"This official does not believe that the matter of the blood droplets being lost happened yesterday. The thief must have fled overnight. I should investigate it and see if any of the people who left the palace today have returned!" The Master of Rites retorted.

Hearing their words, the Emperor frowned, deep in thought.

"Everyone, do you all have any different opinions?" The emperor's deep voice sounded.

"In reply to the Emperor, this subject feels that the words of the two sirs are correct. However, the most important thing right now is to find someone to investigate this matter and find the blood bead as soon as possible."

The emperor's gaze looked downwards, sweeping across to the side, and then locked his gaze in Xuanyuan Zhan's direction. Xuanyuan Zhan seemed to have already felt the emperor's scorching gaze and had no choice but to raise his head to cater to it. The two people's eyes that wanted to catch each other shot out intense sparks.

"Who do you think is more qualified to complete this task, my beloved ones?"

Those who had eyes would know that the emperor's question was just a formality. He already had a definite choice in mind. He just wanted to use someone else's mouth to say it.

But no one dared to say anything because everyone was hesitating. Seeing this, Xuanyuan Qingtian was secretly happy in his heart, before the assembly, Yan Fei had already sent someone over to inform Xuanyuan Qingtian that he had to be low-key, not be reckless, and that he would set everything up in advance. He had to be calm.

"In reply to Imperial Father, this son feels that this matter should be referred to Fourth Brother's His Majesty the Battle-King." The crown prince had already seen through the Emperor's thoughts and said.

"Oh? "Why?" The emperor squinted at Xuanyuan Qingtian.

In reply to royal father, this son believes that the Battle King has a lot of experience, and has a lot of successes as well. A few days ago, A Zhan only needed less than a month to thoroughly investigate the mysterious ancient town, and right now, he has just lost the treasure of the empire. Xuanyuan Qingtian explained slowly, what he said made sense.

The Emperor nodded his head repeatedly, but in the eyes of outsiders, it was obvious that he was putting on an act. In truth, whether or not they were going through the motions today, all of the matters concerning the investigation would be laid on Xuanyuan Zhan's shoulders.

"Battle King, I also think that the Crown Prince's words are reasonable. If this case is given to you, you must help Xiao Kingdom find the treasure of this nation, the Blood Bead!" The emperor directly announced without asking for Xuanyuan Zhan's opinion.

Xuanyuan Zhan frowned, he did not feel good about this, although the loss of the blood drop was definitely related to the matter of the ancient town, even if the Emperor did not hand the matter over to Xuanyuan Zhan, Xuanyuan Zhan would definitely investigate secretly, but, Xuan Yun Mo and Xuanyuan Qingtian had done it so obviously, where did they put Xuanyuan Zhan!

Just as Xuanyuan Zhan was about to open his mouth to speak, Xuanyuan Wentian's solemn voice sounded out once again, "Battle King, listen up. I will now hand over the matter of tracking down the blood droplets to you.

"Yes, son." Xuanyuan Zhan was startled for a moment, and unwillingly replied.

Fengfu

He thought to himself: Usually, Xuanyuan Zhan would come to the courtyard to visit Dou Dou at this time of day and night. Why is it almost noon today, and why is there no one around, did something happen?

"Mother, mother ~ ~" Dou Dou's cheerful voice sounded out.

Feng Yu turned her head and saw Dou Dou's lively and small figure, followed by Wan Er. Ever since this green loli died, Dou Dou was not used to having others look after him, so Wan Er had to bear the burden of taking care of Feng Yu and her mother.

"Mother, guess what I bought for you?" Dou Dou hid his hands behind his back and said mysteriously.

Feng Yu was a bit curious and asked, "What is it?"

"Then mother, come over here and close your eyes." Dou Dou made a gesture for Feng Yu to kneel down.

Wan Er laughed as he bloomed a flower at the side. He saw Dou Dou take out an ornate and exquisite hairpin and insert it into Feng Yu's hair. Although the hairpin wasn't some golden hairpin or silver hairpin, its unique design and exquisite carving suited Feng Yu's taste. When Feng Yu wanted to open his eyes, she was stopped by Dou Dou. After that, she was pulled towards the mirror in the room, allowing Feng Yu to open his eyes. Feng Yu looked at the hairpin on her head, and revealed a gentle smile.

"My Dou Dou is great, I bought such a beautiful hairpin for my mother!" Feng Yu hugged Dou Dou and said happily.

"Really? Mother, it was on the streets that Dou Dou saw this hairpin that he thought was very suitable for Mother, so he wanted to buy it for Mother ~ ~ Hehe … "

"Thank you, my darling ~" Feng Yu fiercely kissed Dou Dou's face.

"Oh right, mother, there's a narrator on the streets today. Just now, Dou Dou just happened to pass by and took a look, how awe-inspiring of him. Dou Dou still wants to take a look, mother, accompany Dou Dou to take a look!"

When they arrived at the gates of the Phoenix Residence, he saw his second aunt. She had been staring at Dou Dou and Feng Yu the entire time, and her eyes contained both disgust and fear.

"Mother, when are we going back to the Uncle Battle-King's residence? Dou Dou doesn't like to live here." Even though Dou Dou was young, he could still tell who was good to him and who was bad to her, so he pouted and asked.

If not for the fact that he was hiding something from her, at this time, she might have already been in the Battle King Manor. In this Phoenix Residence, Feng Yu had almost known that he had to die because of Second Aunt, and with Second Aunt's methods, and as long as she tried to kill him, he must have some sort of secret behind the scenes.

Hence, there was no point in continuing to stay in the Feng Residence. It could only cause Second Aunt to be on guard against Feng Yu, and Feng Yu already had thoughts of returning to the Battle King Manor, however, due to face …

"Alright, since Dou Dou doesn't like it, how about we leave tomorrow?"

Feng Yu thought to herself: If Xuanyuan Zhan were to come looking for him tonight, she would go back with him. But today, he has gone missing.

Feng Yu and Dou Dou were once again on the busy streets, and they could already hear the narration from afar. Mother, look, it's right in front, Lion Dance! "Wah ~ ~ So powerful!"

Feng Yu looked in the direction that Dou Dou was pointing and saw the team as expected, it was filled with people, surrounding them in a circle after circle. Seems like this lion dance was very popular even in the ancient times, but it was really pretty, two or three lions climbing up the stairs to see who would be the first to get the red embroidered ball. Feng Yu looked at this scene, and suddenly felt that it was very familiar. Especially when she was watching them play, Little Swallow and the others had liked it when they were dancing. She wanted to try it herself, but unfortunately, she never had the chance. Standing in front of him right now, she was truly a little excited!

Lightning who was at the side saw Feng Yu and Dou Dou, and wanted to go up and greet them. However, when she saw that Feng Yu was actually cheering for the lion dance team with Dou Dou, like a child, she hesitated a little, unsure of what to do.

Wan Er who was at the side coincidentally saw Lightning, so he gently indicated to Feng Yu's ear what to do. Feng Yu turned her head and saw Lightning, who was standing there with a helpless expression on her face, and knew that she had lost her composure. Feng Yu walked towards him awkwardly, thinking to herself: Why are you alone today, Xuanyuan Zhan and Lei Yu not here?
