Chapter 1551

PS: My eye is inflamed, I went to the hospital today. The update is a bit late.

Su Quan, who was waiting outside the door, was somewhat anxious.

The longer the time passed, the worse her complexion became.

She was even considering running away.

Fortunately, the tightly closed door finally opened, causing her to look over hurriedly.

However, Gu Hanyuan, who walked out leisurely, only left behind the sentence "I have something to do and will be out for a while," and then his figure flashed and left the courtyard.

Su Quan was slightly stunned seeing this, and she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought her identity shouldn't have been exposed, otherwise Gu Hanyuan's reaction would have been too plain.

She looked at Tao Hongying, who had also come out at this time, and her eyebrows immediately frowned slightly.

She subconsciously felt that there was something different about Tao Hongying compared to before.

She asked with a slightly deep expression:

"What did you and Young Master Gu talk about? Why did so much time pass?"

On the surface, Tao Hongying didn't seem any different from before.

But if one observed carefully, one would find that her spirit was much better, and there was a faint flush on her pretty face that hadn't had time to fade.

Tao Hongying subconsciously licked the corner of her lips hearing this, and her heart fluttered slightly.

She said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile:

"Miss Su, do you really want to know?"

Su Quan subconsciously felt that something was not quite right, and said in a deep voice:

"Don't you want the antidote to the 'Leopard Fetus Tendon-Changing Pill' anymore?"

She didn't know that the "Leopard Fetus Tendon-Changing Pill" on Tao Hongying had already been neutralized.

However, Tao Hongying cooperated with the performance and showed a helpless look:

"Alright. Since you want to know..."

Su Quan listened carefully at first, but soon that charming pretty face became redder and redder.

Gu Hanyuan had changed into Wutian's attire and headed to the imperial palace.

He knew Tao Hongying still had things she was hiding from him.

However, Tao Hongying also expressed that she hoped to tell him the hidden things after seeing Zhu Meichuo.

Gu Hanyuan didn't force it; he had basically achieved the goals he needed to reach regarding Tao Hongying.

Both the intelligence on the *Forty-Two Chapters Sutra* and the dragon vein of the Qing Guo had been obtained.

A few secrets were not worth investigating too much.

More importantly, the system gave an extra prompt: Wei Xiaobao had contributed another sum of villain points.

Clearly, Wei Xiaobao's fate had been changed again.

After a moment of thought, Gu Hanyuan understood.

Clearly, even if Wei Xiaobao accidentally bumped into Tao Hongying one day, he wouldn't be able to learn the secret of the *Forty-Two Chapters Sutra* from her.

This was naturally good news for Gu Hanyuan.

At the very least, the possibility of Wei Xiaobao betraying him had decreased quite a bit.

And with Wei Xiaobao having no goal of pursuing treasure, he could only pursue fame and wealth even more.

In this way, he could only serve Gu Hanyuan even more wholeheartedly.

Gu Hanyuan arrived at the imperial palace, and the chaos caused yesterday had subsided.

Everywhere were eunuchs and palace maids cleaning up the ruins.

The Imperial Study had been completely reduced to ruins, and Kangxi, who had just finished the morning court, was now in his sleeping quarters, the Palace of Heavenly Purity.

At this moment, Kangxi was full of pride and joy, not at all showing the "not showing joy or anger" that an emperor should have.

Because whether it was yesterday or today's morning court, he had gathered the power that originally belonged to Ao Bai with extreme ease.

Not only because of Ao Bai's death, but also because he had announced the truth of the imperial palace battle yesterday.

And announced the appointment of Wutian as the Imperial Preceptor of the Qing Guo.

He was allowed to enter the court without hurrying, not to be named when bowing, not to be named in imperial edicts, and to enter the palace with a sword and shoes.

He was to share the fate of the country and had the power to execute officials below the third rank before reporting.

He could even enter and leave the imperial palace at will.

He was truly one person below ten thousand.

To tie Wutian to the chariot of the Qing Guo, Kangxi had used every possible means.

Yet this privilege, which was almost that of a powerful minister who could usurp the throne at any time, did not cause opposition from the civil and military officials.

Even the most loyal officials to Kangxi didn't think Wutian's privileges were too presumptuous.

In fact, anyone who had witnessed the imperial palace battle yesterday wouldn't think there was any problem with this.

Any Earth Immortal belonging to the imperial court of any country had similar privileges, but Kangxi's move was even larger.

However, Wutian, one of the protagonists of the earth-shattering battle yesterday, was much stronger than the Earth Immortals they had in mind.

That small half of the imperial palace that had turned into ruins symbolized his fierce and mighty power.

How could Kangxi not be happy, using Wutian's power to easily gather the power that had fallen aside?

He even took time out of his busy schedule last night to see his Empress, Hesheli.

Therefore, when Kangxi saw Wutian, he said with surprise:

"Where did the Imperial Preceptor go yesterday? I haven't had time to thank you for your help yesterday."

Gu Hanyuan's indifferent and cold voice sounded through the Asura mask:

"I spent some time healing yesterday."

Kangxi asked with concern:

"Are you alright, Imperial Preceptor?"

"I am already alright."

Kangxi breathed a sigh of relief and sighed:

"I didn't expect Gu Hanyuan to be so powerful."

"If it weren't for the fact that both sides were injured in yesterday's battle, how could Gu Hanyuan have retreated so easily? My wariness of him is not without reason."

The reputation-building between the two identities could not stop.

Gu Hanyuan was not ashamed at all when praising himself.

Kangxi said with a solemn expression:
