Pei Xuanji took it and took a quick glance at it.
"Well done."
"I have a small request, I hope Your Majesty will grant it."
"What's the matter?" Pei Xuanji glanced at Li Yunshu, "What's wrong with your teeth?"
Li Yunshu immediately lowered his head, chewed it for a while, and then swallowed what was in his mouth.
"Your Majesty, it is a dessert."
As he spoke, he took out a small piece of handmade chocolate from his sleeve.
On the way back, he was not idle.
Cocoa beans are fermented, dried, ground, added with boiled coconut oil and honey, and finally frozen to make chocolate.
Although he didn't have an oven, a blender, or a refrigerator.
But in Wumeng Mountain, the evil spirits he captured had Qiankun bags on them, which contained fire talismans and ice talismans.
The spirits of the monks from Wumeng Mountain condensed after their death collected the Qiankun bags or storage rings on their bodies.
After being swallowed by the space of the red-clothed evil spirit, they all fell into Li Yunshu's hands.
Pei Xuanji's nose twitched and she smelled a peculiar fragrance.
Driven by curiosity, he took the thing from Li Yunshu's hand.
Wrapped in paper, it is square like a block.
However, when she thought of the appearance of Li Yunshu's teeth, she did not try it easily.
"Go back to the palace."
Seeing that the empress was about to leave, Li Yunshu immediately spoke.
"Your Majesty, please stay."
"Hmm?" Pei Xuanji turned around, "Do you have anything else to do?"
Li Yunshu pointed around.
"Your Majesty has also seen that there is no place to stand in this Taoist temple. I wonder if there is any place in the imperial palace..."
"You want to stay overnight in the palace?" Pei Xuanji's tone turned cold. "Do you know that besides the palace maids, there are only imperial guards and eunuchs in the palace?"
Li Yunshu spoke.
"I am willing to serve as a guard to protect your majesty's safety."
The Night Fury killer incident was most likely committed by Zhao Youde.
Now that his master's wife has become the leader of Tianquan Sect, Zhao Youde's background in Tianquan Sect has been cut off.
But after dealing with Zhao Youde, there was still one person he was worried about, and that was Zhao Yi's biological father.
At first, he only saw that person's entry among the officials.
[Zhao Youde has no fertility at all. All his sons are mine o(^｀)o]
If you want to confirm the other party's identity, you can only do so by attending the morning court.
After all, he normally didn't have the opportunity to come into contact with so many officials at the same time.
So he had to go into the palace and wait for the morning court tomorrow to see who the other high-ranking official hiding in the dark was.
Pei Xuanji stared at Li Yunshu, but couldn't tell what he wanted to do.
"Shuangyue, you go and arrange this matter."
On the side, Shangguan Shuangyue bowed and said yes.
After the empress left, Li Yunshu looked at Chen Hong fiercely.
Chen Hong shrank back and immediately defended herself.
"You, you can't protect the box by yourself, so don't take it out on me."
Li Yunshu snorted coldly. He was angry but did not attack Chen Hong.
"What's up with all that land you're occupying?"
Just as Chen Hong was about to speak, several people hurriedly walked in from outside the Taoist temple.
"Hey, it's Yunshu who's back!"
Li Yunshu turned around and saw an old acquaintance - Elder Cui from the Tianquan Sect stationed in the capital.
Because of Zhao Youde, the two of them had been at loggerheads more than once.
This time the other party actually came to the door with a smile on his face. What is going on?
"Elder Cui."
"Yunshu, are you satisfied with the size of this Taoist temple?" Elder Cui waved his hand, "If you think it's too small, we can expand it."
Chen Hong came over and whispered in Li Yunshu's ear.
"They bought a large area a few days ago and expanded into a Taoist temple. The Qiankun bag I have on me was also given by him."
This made Li Yunshu even more curious. It would have been fine if Elder Cui didn't come to cause trouble for him, but he actually came to his door to give him land.
"Elder Cui, what do you mean?"
“Yun Shu, I really didn’t know that you and Elder Di—” Elder Cui immediately changed his words midway through his sentence, “It’s Sect Master, I really didn’t know that you and Sect Master had this kind of relationship.”
His face was all smiles.
"It was all a misunderstanding before, Yunshu, please don't take it to heart. These are my apologies to you."
Li Yunshu immediately understood that it was the master's wife who was exerting her power.
Now that the Tianquan Sect's master's wife is in power, the people of the Tianquan Sect dare not make things difficult for him anymore.
"What about Zhao Youde, what does Elder Cui plan to do with him?"
"The sect master has already issued an order to take over all the business of the spiritual land." Elder Cui continued, "Zhao Youde is an official of the imperial court after all, so it is not easy for the sect to take action directly."
Li Yunshu nodded. Since Zhao Youde no longer had the Tianquan Sect as his backing, he could take action.
Elder Cui continued.
"If you need anything, please ask me as soon as possible."
Li Yunshu also understood what the other party meant. Since the other party took the initiative to show goodwill, there was no need for him to kill him.
There was not much conflict between him and Elder Cui, and he was not like Zhao Youde, who was determined to fight to the death.
"Thanks to Elder Cui's care, I will definitely speak well of Elder Cui in front of the sect master in the future."
Cui Zhaolong immediately bowed.
"Thank you, Yunshu."
After seeing off Elder Cui, Chen Hong walked up to Li Yunshu and whispered.
"In fact, we found something else in the Sanqing Temple."
"what?"
At this time, Li Yunshu was an upright gentleman. The only shameful things he had in the Sanqing Temple were the futon and a pair of silk socks.
Chen Hong also understood Li Yunshu's temper, and he would only respond to soft words and not to hard ones.
She did not raise any further conditions and directly took out a photo-retaining bead from her Qiankun bag.
Li Yunshu was no stranger to the photo-taking bead, because he also had one in his hand.
However, he soon realized something was wrong.
"Wait a minute, you mean this thing was found in the Sanqing Temple?"
"Yeah." Chen Hong nodded.
Li Yunshu frowned slightly. He had lived in the Taoist temple for so long, but he never knew that there was a photo-retaining bead in the Sanqing Hall.
"How come I didn't know that Sanqing Temple had this thing?"
"There is a dragon head carved on the dome of the main hall, and this image bead is the pillar in the dragon's mouth."
Li Yunshu took the photo-taking bead and looked at it carefully.
"No, I remember the bead in the dragon's mouth was red."
Chen Hong pointed at the mottled red paint remaining on the photo beads.
"It's painted red, so you can't see it unless you look closely."
Holding the photo-taking beads in his hand, Li Yunshu instantly thought of something scary and exciting.
If this photo bead records everything that happened in the Sanqing Palace, then -
Chapter 39: What qualifications does Li Yunshu have?
Li Yunshu turned his head and looked at Chen Hong meaningfully.
"Have you read the contents of this photo bead?"
Chen Hong clenched his fists and spoke with gritted teeth.
"No."
"Really do not have?"
Seeing that Li Yunshu didn't believe it, Chen Hong immediately swore to the sky.
"If I had seen it, I would be struck by lightning."
Click!
There was a loud thunderbolt from the blue sky, followed by a flash of lightning. Chen Hong's hair stood up and his figure became even more illusory.
You know, thunder magic can restrain spiritual bodies, let alone heavenly thunder.
When this loud thunder struck, all the evil spirits around hid far away.
