Shen Xin had just left the palace and was still thinking about the scene of his infatuation with Wan Zhen'er, when suddenly, a figure appeared in front of him and blocked his way.

Shen Xin narrowed his eyes, looked at Yu Huatian who was blocking his way, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I have prepared a banquet nearby, please come over, Mr. Shen." Yu Huatian took a deep breath. Facing Shen Xin, who could easily take his life, he still felt a lot of pressure.

This kind of pressure could not be given to him, even by Wan Zhen'er, who nominally held the power of life and death over him and could make him lose everything at any time.

After all, even if he had nothing, he still had his own abilities.

At the critical moment, there was still a chance to fight for his life, but in front of Shen Xin, he didn't even have the chance to fight for his life.

"Okay, lead the way." Shen Xin thought about it and did not refuse, but agreed.

To be honest, after fighting all day, he was indeed a little hungry.

Following Yu Huatian to a courtyard not far away, Yu Huatian had already prepared delicious food in the house, and had also specially arranged two palace maids with distinctive appearances to serve.

However, in Shen Xin's eyes, the two palace maids were only average.

Besides, he had just been driving on the highway for almost a day, so he didn't have the energy to think about anything else.

After taking his seat, Shen Xin began to eat without hesitation, served by the palace maids.

Yu Huatian sat beside him, not in a hurry to talk, and accompanied Shen Xin to eat and drink until the table of food was almost eaten, Yu Huatian spoke.

"Mr. Shen and the Imperial Concubine today..."

"It's just what you think." Shen Xin had no embarrassment in admitting this.

"Although everyone inside and outside the palace was sent away, and those people were all the queen's confidants, but the human heart is hard to predict. Mr. Shen stayed with the queen for so long, I'm afraid this matter can't be hidden from those who are interested." Yu Huatian didn't expect Shen Xin to be so frank. He was stunned for a moment, and then said.

"Eunuch Yu, if you have anything to say, just say it." Since Shen Xin dared to go up, he was not afraid of the matter being exposed. It was not like he had fucked Zhu Houzhao's biological mother.

Even if he really did it, what could Zhu Houzhao do to him?

Moreover, his mother might not allow Zhu Houzhao to do anything to him.

Thinking of this, Shen Xin just laughed out loud.

Seeing that Shen Xin didn't care at all and was even smiling, Yu Huatian felt a little envious. If he had the same ability as Shen Xin, he would also not care about the emperor's opinion.

After all, this is not a matter of rebellion. Even if there are several great masters in the palace, the emperor will not take action against Shen Xin without 100% certainty.

If he fails to take it, the emperor will be in danger.

If a grandmaster intends to take revenge, he will not be able to sleep well unless he is also a grandmaster.

"With your strength, no one can do anything to you even if this matter is exposed. However, the people around you..." Yu Huatian put aside the envy in his heart, took a deep breath, and said.

"If you don't mind, Yu Huatian is willing to send his elite men to protect the safety of your family."

"What are you doing..." Shen Xin's face changed slightly as he looked at Yu Huatian who was showing goodwill to him and secretly expressing his loyalty.

He did want to subdue Yu Huatian, but he did not intend to use the Huimeng Heart Sutra to directly transform him into a puppet who would only follow his orders.

It’s not that I can’t, but that I don’t want to.

However, if Yu Huatian really wants to pledge allegiance, even if it's just verbal, Shen Xin won't care about that.

"I am the queen's confidant. Now that you are with her, I am loyal to you." Upon seeing this, Yu Huatian knelt on one knee to express his feelings.

"I know your intentions, but you are not needed for matters outside. You just need to stay in the palace, protect the queen and listen to her orders." Shen Xin said.

Yu Huatian heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, as it meant that Shen Xin had accepted his loyalty. Even though Wan Zhen'er no longer had the emperor's favor, his position was still stable.

However, this is just the beginning, and what will happen next is still unknown.

But at least it's a good start.

"I'll go back first and come back tomorrow." Even though the physical exhaustion is nothing to Shen Xin now, he can still recover quickly.

But after working for a whole day, Shen Xin still felt a little tired mentally.

He had no intention of conquering Yu Huatian now. After reaching a preliminary agreement, Shen Xin said goodbye and left.

……

Imperial City, Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Houzhao's face was as gloomy as water. Not long after Shen Xin left the palace, someone came to report the news to him.

"Asshole, asshole, you are indeed a gangster, you have no sense of etiquette, you disregard the grace of the Lord... Damn it, all of you deserve to die!"

After learning the news, Zhu Houzhao, who had been holding it in for a whole day, finally couldn't hold it in anymore and cursed out loud.

Although Zhu Houzhao wished to kill Wan Zhen'er as soon as possible so as to take back the Western Factory that was controlled by her, she was still his mother's concubine and his elder after all.

Now, he is having an affair with Shen Xin, cuckolding his dead father. As a son, how can Zhu Houzhao feel happy?

Moreover, he just rewarded Shen Xin with 30,000 taels of silver and a mansion yesterday.

Shen Xin gave him such a "surprise" in return?

First it was Chu Liuxiang, then Shen Xin. Zhu Houzhao felt disgusted to death and was filled with anger towards the people in the martial arts world.

These are the people in the underworld. Damn them, all of them deserve to die!

"By the way, what did Yu Huatian say?" After his anger, Zhu Houzhao calmed down and turned to look at the eunuch who came to report.

Yu Huatian is a useless eunuch after all. Will Wan Zhen'er still care about him now that she has Shen Xin?

Perhaps, this is his chance, an opportunity to win over Yu Huatian and divide the Western Factory.

"Before Shen Xin left the palace, Yu Huatian invited Shen Xin to a banquet in the side courtyard. The two stayed for more than half an hour before Shen Xin left."

"Humph." Zhu Houzhao snorted coldly, and immediately gave up the idea of ​​winning over Yu Huatian. Shen Xin could stay with Yu Huatian for half an hour, which obviously meant that Yu Huatian had already surrendered to the other party.

Chapter 286 Su Huirong

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is here."

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Houzhao's anger had just subsided when the eunuch outside came in to report.

Zhu Houzhao frowned when he heard this. He knew very well why his mother came to see him at this time, but he did not want to have a conflict with Shen Xin because of this.

Although he felt disgusted and embarrassed, compared to having to deal with a grandmaster, Zhu Houzhao could endure this little humiliation.

However, he didn't want his mother to see this side of him, which looked too embarrassed and incompetent.

However, since everyone was already outside the temple, I had no choice but to see them.

Zhu Houzhao sighed and asked someone to bring the empress dowager in.

After a while, the empress dowager appeared in the hall. Zhu Houzhao asked someone to bring a chair and let his mother sit down to talk.

"Mother, it's so late, what do you want to talk to me about?" Zhu Houzhao asked because he knew "157".

"Your great uncle is in Guanzhong now. The capital has been in unrest recently. Your mother thinks that your great uncle should be allowed to come back." The empress dowager did not mention the matter of Shen Xin and Wan Zhen'er, but talked about another matter.

Zhu Houzhao narrowed his eyes. The great uncle mentioned by the empress dowager was his great-grandfather's younger brother, a powerful man in the realm of heaven and man. Zhu Houzhao knew very well what the empress dowager was thinking when she proposed to let him come back at this time.

However, Zhu Houzhao was still a little hesitant as to whether or not to let the other party come back.

In terms of identity, the other party is his elder; in terms of status, the other party is a powerful person in the realm of heaven and man. When facing him, Zhu Houzhao can only beg but cannot use anything.

After all, he and the other party are separated by several generations. The more he asks, the less affection he has.

In Zhu Houzhao's opinion, it was somewhat not worth it to use such an opportunity on Shen Xin.

His real enemies are his uncles.

No matter how ridiculous Shen Xin was or how angry he was, he was not such a big threat to him.

"The former most handsome man in the world has a close relationship with the two people from Yihua Palace. Now Shen Xin is making a big fuss and spreading his title of the most handsome man in the world. I believe it won't be long before the two people from Yihua Palace will find him. When the time comes, I will send another grand master and we will act according to the circumstances. How about it?" Zhu Houzhao was silent for a while and said to the empress dowager.

When the empress dowager heard this, she knew that Zhu Houzhao did not want to affect the relationship with the imperial uncle, so she did not force it, but nodded in agreement.

Then, she mentioned Wan Zhen'er again: "That woman cannot be kept either. We cannot let your father be disgraced after his death."

"But my father asked the old ancestor to protect her, so it is difficult for me to do it!" Zhu Houzhao had a headache. This was not an ordinary world, but a world of comprehensive martial arts.

If Wan Zhen'er only had those people from the Western Factory under her command, Zhu Houzhao would have sent people to assassinate her long ago.

But his father doted on Wan Zhen'er very much during his lifetime. When he was dying, he specifically asked Kuihua Patriarch to protect Wan Zhen'er.

To kill Shen Xin, Zhu Houzhao could send people to take advantage of the time when the two palace masters of Yihua Palace were dealing with him and act accordingly.

But if Wan Zhen'er sent someone to go, the Sunflower Patriarch would not just sit there and watch.

These grand masters are all his people. Even though Patriarch Kuihua has the task of looking after Wan Zhen'er, Zhu Houzhao can still barely command them.

Zhu Houzhao didn't want to see people killing each other.

Seeing that Zhu Houzhao did not respond for a long time, the empress dowager sighed, but she did not act willfully and force Zhu Houzhao to do things according to her ideas.

She took the initiative to change the subject: "Is Yunluo still missing?"

"We have sent people out of the palace to look for her. She should be found soon. She just took a palace maid with her, so she can't hide for long." Zhu Houzhao replied.

"This girl Yunluo is becoming more and more outrageous. She even dared to sneak out of the palace. If she were alone, she wouldn't be able to hide for long, but I'm afraid someone would make trouble for her!" The Queen Mother sighed.

"Mother, I am sorry. Last time Yunluo asked me to watch how Chu Liuxiang stole the Amber Guanyin, I should have agreed to her request. It would have been fine if I had rejected her. But afterward, Yunluo did not act like a spoiled child to me as usual, so I should have realized something was wrong..."

"This is not your fault, why should you blame yourself?" Before Zhu Houzhao could finish his words, the empress dowager hurried to comfort him.

The mother and son chatted for a while, and the queen mother did not bother them too much and left directly.

On the other side, after seeing Shen Xin off, Yu Huatian came to a small courtyard where the palace maids lived.

This courtyard is not big and there is not much scenery. The palace maid living here does not appear to be special and has no background. She has always been an ordinary palace maid.

But in fact, the other party was a hidden man discovered and cultivated by Yu Huatian.

It was already night, and she returned to the yard.

Seeing Yu Huatian coming, the pale, weak, and lovable woman immediately came to Yu Huatian and knelt down...

"Meet the Governor."

"Su Huirong, I have a task for you." Yu Huatian said with a cold expression, looking at the delicate and gentle woman kneeling in front of him.
