Chapter 119: What happened to your face?

In the palace, everyone knows that the old eunuch around Emperor Qinglong is extremely strong, but no one knows how strong it is. It is just speculation that it should be the Grandmaster realm.

Since Emperor Qinglong ascended the throne, assassinations against him have happened from time to time, but even the most powerful assassin was, he had broken his feathers when he reached Sun De's level.

Therefore, the old eunuch Sun De was also the most solid barrier to protect Emperor Qinglong.

When he heard Emperor Qinglong’s questioning, Sun De bowed and said, “Your Majesty, I have only seen Yang Xu on one side, and I don’t know how to evaluate his character. When I saw him in a hurry that day, I had the impression of him that this son was a little lazy and did not like to be bound by secular rules. Some of the words he occasionally said were shocking…”

Emperor Qinglong nodded and said, "Yes, according to the information I have collected from all aspects, he is indeed such a person... This is also something that makes me feel quite troubled. He has the ability to make money. I originally wanted to summon him to the court as an official to manage my finances. But his lazy and relaxed nature made me feel embarrassed... Xiao Dezi, do you think I want to use him?"

Sun Dedao: "Your Majesty is the master of everything!"

Emperor Qinglong thought about it, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's observe it again..."

Suddenly, he said: "A woman died next to Yang Xu... The woman's identity is quite suspicious. I'll send someone to check it out. In addition, let someone look at me a little, don't let other irrelevant women get too close to Yang Xu."

Sun De responded, but he was a little puzzled. He couldn't understand why Emperor Qinglong, who had always been diligent in state affairs and had a lot of Japanese operations, cared about these trivial matters.

At the same time, the royal princess of Zhao State lived in Fengyang Pavilion.

Zhao Duobao ran to his sister Zhao Duofu's room and chattered about interesting things that had happened these days.

Zhao Duobao is lively and outgoing. From morning to night, he has hardly been honest at other times except falling asleep. He is considered an alien in the royal family.

Emperor Qinglong was extremely spoiled for his daughter and issued a special order allowing her to go out of the palace to visit once every ten days.

In contrast, Zhao Duofu became much quieter. If Zhao Duobao had not pulled her away with her every time she left the palace, she might not have been out of the palace once a year.

Although Zhao Duofu has been out of the palace a lot more times during this period than before, he has only gone to the Yang Family Restaurant.

If Zhao Duobao went to other places to play, Zhao Duofu looked indifferent and would not follow him. He stayed alone in Fengyang Pavilion, either practicing swordsmanship, or holding his chin with his hands to look at the sky in a daze.

Every time Zhao Duobao returns from a trip, he will share some interesting things with Zhao Duofu, and Zhao Duofu is willing to listen.

"Duofu, you haven't left the palace these days. Do you know that something happened to the Yang family restaurant?"

Zhao Duobao mysteriously told Zhao Duofu.

When Zhao Duofu heard the Yang family restaurant, he thought of Yang Xu at the first time and suddenly jumped in his heart: "What happened?"

Zhao Duofu said: "The Yang family restaurant is dead!"

"What? Who...who died?"

Zhao Duofu suddenly stood up, not even noticed herself. His face turned pale and his voice was trembling.

Zhao Duobao pulled Zhao Duofu down and said, "Duofu, what were you doing when you were shocked? It was not Yang Xu who had the accident... Tell you, the dead man was called Dongfang Mingyue, he was a woman, and he had just entered the Yang family restaurant for a few days..."

When Zhao Duofu heard that it had nothing to do with Yang Xu, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and was not interested in asking who Dongfang Mingyue was.

Zhao Duobao said again: "I heard from Eunuch Sun beside my father that the woman was a master. She entered the Yang family restaurant to get close to Yang Xu and achieve her ulterior motive."

Zhao Duofu frowned and said, "Since that's the case, then you should die! Has the woman's identity and origin been found?"

Although she rarely leaves the palace, she is a noble man and a princess. She has many intrigues and deceptions when she sees and hears, and is also smart. After thinking about it carefully, she knows that since the woman's purpose is impure to approach Yang Xu, there must be a messenger behind the scenes.

If the conspirator behind the scenes is not revealed, Yang Xu may face the same thing in the future.

Zhao Duobao shook his head and said, "Eunuch Sun said he was investigating. He also said that his father was also paying attention to this matter."

Zhao Duofu was quite surprised, and he didn't expect that his father would pay attention to such trivial matters.

"In recent years, our Zhao State has used troops many times in the west and south, which consumed a lot of money, and the treasury has gradually become empty. The north is under great pressure from the Hu State. Could it be that the father of the emperor knew that Yang Xu was good at making money and intended to let him become an official in the court?"

Zhao Duofu felt that his father should have the intention.

Zhao Duobao's eyes rolled and said to Zhao Duofu: "I'm hungry and want to go to Yang's restaurant to have hot pot! Duofu, are you going?"

The Yang family restaurant died. Although Yang Xu was safe, Zhao Duofu couldn't help but want to look at him, and nodded after hearing this.

So the two sisters disguised themselves and went to the Yang Family Restaurant under the secret protection of some palace guards.

After all, they are the princesses. Every time Zhao Duofu and Zhao Duobao come to the Yang family restaurant, Yang Xu will personally receive it.

This time is no exception.

"Huh? Yang Xu, what's wrong with your face?"

Seeing Yang Xu's face covering up after entering the VIP private room, Zhao Duobao couldn't help asking.

Yang Xu smiled dryly and said, "It's okay! I didn't see clearly when I walked at night, and I hit the tree!"

Zhao Duobao couldn't help laughing and giggled, "You are so big, you're so careless when you walk! You're so hitting you seriously. Do you want me to invite the imperial doctor in the palace to take a look?"

Yang Xu waved his hand and said, "What is this little bruised injury for those who practice martial arts? After a rest of one day, you will be cured."

Yang Xu is telling the truth. Since he entered the martial arts world, he has found that his ability to resist strikes has become much stronger.

Especially after soaking in the potion prepared by his great-grandfather a few times, he found that his physique had improved significantly. Not to mention his nose and face were bruised, even if he had more serious injuries, he would recover much faster than others.

So every time he practiced with Yang Hongyu, his nose and face were bruised that day, and he recovered completely after a night, which surprised many people.

This time he came out to receive Zhao Duofu and Zhao Duobao. He had just practiced with Yang Hongyu, but was beaten hard by Yang Hongyu, so he looked a little miserable.

"No, you were beaten!"

Zhao Duofu looked at Yang Xu's originally handsome face, but now he changed his appearance with a swelling and bruising look, feeling a little distressed.

She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child and is now a top expert with extraordinary eyesight. She can hide Yang Xu's words from Zhao Duobao, but she can't hide them from her.

"Being beaten? Yang Xu, is it true or false?"

Zhao Duobao widened his eyes and couldn't believe it.

This Yang family restaurant is Yang Xu's territory, and there is the Qin Palace as its backer. Who dares to make him look like this?
