Chapter 442: A Mission (Part 1)

Chu Li found that there were not as many guards in the Forbidden Palace as expected.

He originally thought that the Forbidden Palace must be heavily guarded, with countless top experts, and it would be a dragon's lake and a tiger's den, where not even a fly could fly in.

He only realized when he saw it now that the guards on the outer layer of the Forbidden Palace were similar to those of the palace, and the guards only became stricter when they were close to the Empress Dowager's palace.

He saw more than a dozen top celestial masters.

Most of these masters are hidden in the dark, or in the pavilion, or under the corner, and the maids and servants who pass by cannot find the existence of these masters.

Chu Li nodded secretly.

As expected of the Forbidden Palace, although the guards are not so strict, they are not comparable to ordinary palaces. These masters of heaven and earth are far higher than those of ordinary palaces.

He saw the empress and the empress dowager, the empress looked like she was in her thirties, with good looks, far inferior to Xiao Shi and the others, the empress dowager looked in her forties, her charm was still there, and she had a good face.

When they saw Xiao Shi, they kept looking at her.

Chu Li pushed Dayuan Jingzhi to the extreme to see what they were thinking.

The queen was very satisfied, seeing such a beautiful daughter-in-law, and this marriage is her masterpiece, filled her heart with an indescribable sense of accomplishment.

The Queen Mother was also very satisfied. Xiao Shi looked dignified, beautiful and gentle, obviously a good housekeeper, marrying her would definitely bring good luck.

Chu Li slowly retracted Da Yuan Jing Zhi.

The emperor was not within five miles, so he couldn't see it.

He secretly rejoiced.

He didn't want to meet the emperor rashly before he knew what abilities the master of the gods had, so as not to expose his abilities, and now he was vulnerable in front of the emperor.

After he took back the Dayuan Jingzhi, he began to close his eyes and meditate.

This time, I just raised my head a little bit, but it was Xiao Shi's own idea behind it. He came to the palace to face the saint and question the behavior of the secret guards of the forbidden palace. Wei is a good-looking one.

Xiao Shi's methods are beyond the reach of ordinary women.

After this time, the secret guards of the Forbidden Palace would never dare to enter Prince An's Mansion again.

An hour later, Chu Li's ears moved suddenly, and he looked towards the palace gate.

Under the leadership of Lu Wangfei and Xiao Shi, all the girls curled out of the palace gate.

With the support of Xue Ling and Yang Xu, Xiao Shi got into the carriage.

Just as Chu Li was about to drive the car with a whip, Lu Yurong came over and looked at him with a half-smile.

Knowing that she recognized him, Chu Li simply raised his bamboo hat and looked at her.

Lu Yurong's eyes were like autumn water, and she turned brightly on his face, with a half-smile: "Congratulations, the new secret guard of the Forbidden Palace!"

"Huh—?" Chu Li was taken aback.

Lu Yurong was still wearing a veil, covering her charming face, and the smile on her face could be seen through her bright eyes: "You will be the secret guard of the Forbidden Palace after today, and you can be a power and a blessing, isn't it worthy of congratulations?"

"What's going on?" Chu Li frowned.

Lu Yurong smiled and said: "Your majesty is worthy of being the emperor. I have granted you the status of a secret guard of the forbidden palace, so that no secret guard of the forbidden palace will embarrass you any more!"

"Is this compensation?" Chu Li snorted.

Lu Yurong smiled and said: "Being a secret guard of the Forbidden Palace will bring you many benefits."

Chu Li shook his head.

These benefits are rare for others, such as rare elixir and secret book, but they are not so precious to Chu Li. He does not lack these now, what he lacks is the opportunity to practice Tianmo Gong.

"The collection of books in the Forbidden Palace is very rich." Lu Yurong said.

Chu Li's eyes lit up.

Lu Yurong pursed her lips and smiled.

Xiao Shi's soft voice came from the carriage: "Aren't you going?"

"Let's go now." Chu Li hurriedly said.

Lu Yurong glanced across the carriage, and snorted, "I really didn't realize that Second Miss Xiao is so powerful, hurry up, don't make her wait!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked to another carriage.

Chu Li swung his whip to urge the carriage to move slowly.

Xiao Shi didn't say a word in the carriage.

Chu Li didn't speak, and wore a bamboo hat to act as a coachman, and went all the way back to Prince An's Mansion.

All the girls left and went back to their respective courtyards.

Only Chu Li and Xiao Shi were in the Tianshu Academy, while Yang Xu and Xue Ling withdrew.

At the beginning of the Chinese lanterns, the lights in Tianshu courtyard are as bright as day.

Xiao Shi sat at the stone table, under the peach tree, the light reflected her face softly, as warm and moist as white jade, her bright eyes became deeper and deeper, and when the waves of her eyes moved, she was soul-stirring.

"Your majesty is really old and treacherous!" She put down the teacup slowly with her hands, and sighed: "He is taking revenge!"

Chu Li nodded.

For others, the secret guard of the Forbidden Palace is a step up to the sky, but for Chu Li, it is a bondage.

"But the secret guards of the Forbidden Palace are also good." Xiao Shi said: "You will save a lot of trouble, which is equivalent to a talisman!"

Chu Li said: "Is the emperor for real, or did he just bestow an identity?"

"It should be true." Xiao Shi frowned and said: "I have already told the emperor that you have too many things to do, and you can't get away. Just stay in the palace."

"The emperor is considerate enough!" Chu Li snorted.

Xiao Shidao: "I reckon he is also troubled by the Holy Cult of Light, and will let you deal with the Holy Cult of Light!"

"Bright Holy Cult..." Chu Li sighed, "It's better not to mess with them."

The Duke's Mansion killed many martial arts masters, who were regarded as thorns in the eyes of various martial arts factions. The martial arts figures were full of blood, and they would often risk their lives to assassinate them.

Assassination by martial arts masters is a rare bloodthirsty, and occasionally erupts when impulsive.

The Holy Cult of Light regards assassination of death as a happy event, the happiest thing, no different from a lunatic.

Once he really offended the Holy Cult of Guangming, there would be an endless stream of assassinations.

To deal with these guys, if you kill them, they will be happy instead. The biggest threat of death does not exist, so there is really nothing for them to worry about.

Xiao Shi said: "You have already provoked them."

"Let's see their reaction." Chu Li pondered: "If these guys calm down a bit, I won't take it too far. If they retaliate relentlessly, then I can only fight them to the end!"

"Then are you going to the Secret Guard Mansion?" Xiao Shi said: "Do you want to accept this mission?... If you don't go, the emperor will not do anything to you, just find an excuse to push it away!"

Chu Li said: "Since the emperor has spoken, I can only continue!"

"You have to be careful." Xiao Shi snorted: "They will definitely make a tripper hurt you and avenge those two guys!"

Chu Li smiled: "Then let's see their methods!"

Xiao Shibai glanced at him and stopped talking.

In terms of methods and intrigues, Chu Li is not afraid of anyone.

Chu Li smiled and said, "I'm also very curious about what the Secret Guard Mansion is like."

"If they go too far, they will be ruthless." Xiao Shi said.

Chu Li smiled and nodded.

The secret guard of the Forbidden Palace is most powerful not in martial arts, but in intelligence, and this is exactly what he lacks the most.

The information of Yi Guogong's mansion is relatively good within the territory, but it is not as good when it goes out of Chongming Road.

Even though he arranged all kinds of dark chess, compared to the huge big season, it was still like throwing stones in the sea, which was far worse.

The secret guard of the Forbidden Palace looked at Daji and even the whole world. He couldn't imagine the amount of information, and he couldn't wait to take a look.
