Chapter 275: Back to the Imperial Palace (I)

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Since the five assassins achieved nothing, Mr. Chen flew into a temper again, but he also knew that the treasure was not so easy to retrieve.

Therefore, after throwing a tantrum, Mr. Chen gritted his teeth and finally decided to use his trump card.

Originally, he didn’t plan to use that thing, but he thought if he could get his treasure back with it, then everything would be worth it!

Later that night, Long and the others didn’t encounter any problems.

In the carriage, Long had a good sleep with Shi in his arms. Of course, the carriage wasn’t as comfortable as the bed.

The next day, the team continued on their journey.

At night, they stayed in an inn in a small county.

In term of living conditions, the inn was much better than the carriage.

Long and Shi both slept well at night.

It was because the annoying Mr. Chen didn’t go to bother them.

In the morning, when the sunlight flooded into the room, Long turned over and looked at the person beside him.

Shi hadn’t woken up yet.

Long liked to look at Shi’s face when Shi was sleeping soundly because that would make him feel life was so beautiful.

So, he couldn’t help leaning over and kissed Shi’s lips.

Shi opened his eyes and Long thought that his blood-colored pupils were exceptionally beautiful.

So Long kissed those attractive eyes.

Shi blinked.

“Qingzhou, did you sleep well last night?”

“Well, not bad,” Shi said with a yawn.

“That’s good. Let’s get up for breakfast.”

“I’ll help you, Qingzhou,” Long said flatteringly.

Shi glanced at him and responded, “Mhmm”.

Helping Shi to dress and wash, Long looked very professional and proficient.

After Shi got up, Ying Feng went there.

The letter from Shi Qingshan, who was staying in the border area, finally arrived.

Shi couldn’t wait to open it, and then he frowned.

Long hurriedly asked, “What happened?”

Shi took a deep breath and handed the letter to Long.

Long’s face darkened after he read it.

“Your father is injured.”

“Yes.” Coldness filled Shi’s eyes.

Fortunately, Shi Qingshan’s injuries were not serious, but the attacker was still unknown.

That night, there was only one assassin, but he escaped after hurting Shi Qingshan!

In addition, Shi Qingshan wrote in the letter that he suspected that there was a spy in the army.

And the spy must hold a high position!

Shi Qingshan also wrote that he would investigate thoroughly and he had already had plans.

“The border is not peaceful anymore,” Long said slowly.

Shi turned his head. “Right. It won’t be peaceful…”

“We need to know who did it this time. I told you about the envoys of Northern Barbarians earlier and they’re suspicious. But it is also possible that Eastern Darkness took action this time. What I am worried about is that the two parties have joined hands.”

Shi frowned. “If Northern Barbarians and Eastern Darkness have joined forces, things will be more difficult for us.”

“Yes.” Long sighed. “Although Northern Barbarians has been defeated by your father’s army, their power still can’t be underestimated. If they collude with Eastern Darkness to attack us, we’ll be in big trouble.”

Shi thought for a while and said, “How is Qin Yuechun doing at the border of Eastern Darkness?”

“They just made a little trouble for Eastern Darkness. The army hasn’t attacked them openly,” Long said.

“Right…” A thought flashed through Shi’s mind. “Maybe we should do more than that.”

Long blinked. “Qingzhou, you want to…”

Shi said calmly, “Eastern Darkness should also be pressured. In addition, we must speed up and return to the imperial city soon. As for those on the list in the last few cities, we can leave them to Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan.”

Long immediately understood what Shi meant and nodded. “Well, it’s okay. If we hurry up…

we will be able to return to the imperial city in less than ten days. At the same time, Qin Yuechun can also take action.”

Shi nodded. “Yes, let’s do it. Otherwise, everyone will think we’re push-overs.”

They had killed a lot of people in the past few months. It was really impossible that anyone dared to look down on them, but Long didn’t think that he needed to argue with his empress about that!

So Long nodded directly. “Qingzhou, you’re right. Since those people want to fight, let’s just grant their wish. This is true of Eastern Darkness, and even more so of Northern Barbarians!”

“Yes.” Shi narrowed his eyes. “Furthermore, our state lies between Northern Barbarians and Eastern Darkness after all. What if they want to unite? As long as they can’t break through the border defenses, nothing is possible.”

Long smiled when he heard this. “Qingzhou, you’re totally right. Your father is in the north, so I don’t worry about that. I admit that your father is a very powerful general, but those evil people are still difficult to deal with. I plan to send twenty Shadow Guardians there.”

Shi was surprised to hear that. After a while, he nodded and said, “Thank you.”

Long smiled and looked at Shi with disapproval. “Qingzhou, he is your father, but also my father-in-law. Do you think you need to thank me?”

As the corners of his mouth slightly turned upward, Shi said, “I want to send Ying Qiu there.”

“Alright, let Ying Qiu lead the team. He and the twenty Shadow Guardians can only be responsible for your father’s safety. That should be enough. Well, two imperial doctors will go, too.”

“Okay.” Shi’s look softened. “It would be better to have two imperial doctors with them. Then I can be completely relieved.”

Once the decision was made, the two imperial doctors who came with Zhang Yuan, Ying Qiu and twenty Shadow Guardians set off to the border where Shi Qingshan was staying.

At the same time, Long also called Liu and Ouyang over.

“Something has happened in the border areas. We need to return to the imperial city quickly to make arrangements. Liu Suifeng, Ouyang Chuan, there are still three cities left. We want to ask you to kill those people on the list.”

“Huh?” Liu was taken aback. “You are going back?”

“Yes. Mr. Chen is out there. Although we need your help, we can’t ask you to come with us. Therefore, we have no choice but to leave you here. After all, Liu Suifeng, you can restrain Chen Mengxing,” Long said.

Liu only thought for a moment before nodding his head.

“Okay, I’ll prepare more antidotes for you… What about that evil object?”
