Li Wan did not live in the palace, but in Prince Fu's Mansion, now also called "Zhuohua Palace".
Several maids had just finished serving Li Wan and he was lying on a huge carved bed with two favorite concubines beside him.
The two concubines were wearing the finest gold silk obscene clothes, revealing their snow-white chests and abdomen and smooth calves. They lowered their eyes and waited eagerly aside.
They are here to warm the bed.
But when Li Wan thought that he was going to see Li Qi tomorrow afternoon and would definitely see Mr. Xu Huixu, he felt anxious and walked around the room without any intention of resting.
The rain outside the window was dripping, but I don't know when it stopped.
Li Wan suddenly raised his eyes, and through the huge partition window, he saw the oil lamp at the top of Lion Mountain in the distance that he had blown out last night, lighting up again.
Who will light it up again?
Li Wan vaguely felt that a few hours ago in the Lion Tower, he was too indulgent in killing and seemed to have overlooked something serious.
Things got interesting.
Li Wan couldn't sleep even more.

Emperor Li Qi had already stood up and was preparing for today's morning court.
After a complicated routine of getting out of bed, he already felt a little tired. He was wearing single clothes, sitting at the table, taking a break, and was in a daze for a while.
At this time, Huang Shu, the chief chamberlain, opened the bead curtain and came in from the door. He held a brand-new dossier still smelling of ink in his hand and handed it over respectfully.
"Emperor, this is the summary of what His Highness Shizilou experienced last night in the Lion City Walled City. Please read it."
Li Qi quickly scanned the contents of the dossier, a dark cloud gradually rose on his face, put the dossier on the table, and slowly uttered two words in his mouth.
"Assassination?"
Huang Shu bowed forward: "Back to the Emperor, this matter is indeed true. His Highness the Fifth Prince has confirmed it, and all relevant persons have been imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment."
Li Qi asked again: "Did His Highness the Fifth Prince leave no one alive at the scene?"
"When the Fifth Prince went down, they said that everyone had been killed by His Highness Li Wan." Huang Shu hesitated for a moment: "But it seems that there is a key figure who was saved by His Highness Li Wan and collected. Arriving under his command."
"What should I say about this kid? Is he still brave and resourceful?" A smile appeared on Li Qi's face.
Huang Shu immediately greeted him: "His Royal Highness Li Wan is born with supernatural powers, has a delicate mind, and has unparalleled spiritual roots. He is indeed a perfect person."
"You know how to tell nice things." Li Qi thought for a while, "Don't leave this case to Jiang'er for trial. Find a new face with a clean background to find out who is behind these assassins."
Huang Shu sang.
Li Qi added: "That woman named Gu Cunhua, after she goes to Zhuohua Palace, arrange for her to come see me."
Huang Shu still sang.
"Is there anything else?" Li Qi stood up and motioned to the maid to change into court clothes for him. Then he thought again and asked, "When will our new star official arrive in Shengdu?"
Huang Shu thought for a moment and said, "According to the schedule, Master Huai Jing will arrive in two days."
Li Qi nodded, "Be sure to inform me to go and greet you. In addition, you must inform Xu Xianjun to go with you."
Huang Shu took the order and paused: "There is one more thing..."
"What's the matter?" Li Qi had already put on his court clothes and hat, walked to the door, and turned around to ask.
"I have found the woman the Emperor ordered me to find."
Li Qi didn't reply, just laughed a few times, turned around and strode away to go to court.

The highest point of Char Palace is not the emperor's palace or residence, but an academy.
It's called "Qingjing Academy".
The owner of the academy is named Xu Hui, a practitioner of both religions, also known as "Sir Purity".
Clean, clean and pure, so this academy is a pure white small building with white walls and white tiles, standing in a golden palace, which is both special and shows its supreme and special status.
Xu Hui and his four boys also lived on the third floor of this small building. At this time, they had already gotten up and started preparing for the day's teaching work.
The red boy Hongxuan is busy making tea, the blue boy Lan Fu is busy tidying up, and there is also a fat white boy named Bai Xia, who...he is complaining.
"Sir, His Highness Li Wan committed another murderous act yesterday. First, he injured countless mortal lives in the afternoon, and then killed 14 people in a row in the evening, including three Red Immortals. This was not enough. He also deliberately blew out the He blew the lights of the old temple on Lion Rock. Sir, he came to class today, please be punished severely!"
Xu Hui was still the same, with a gentle smile on his face, nodded, and said a few words, "I know, I know."
Then he asked: "Don't you should report more about someone trying to assassinate His Highness and the presence of a big goblin soul in the walled city?"
Bai Xia's face immediately turned red after being pierced by the words, and she said with a milky voice: "Sir, isn't that exactly what I want to say? Last night in the Lion Tower, two wisps of the spirit of the big demon did appear. One was named The golden birds, one called the Great Tengu, are all great demons that have been destroyed in ancient times. As for why they appeared, it remains to be investigated. And the alchemist who released the two souls from the soul pot is a casual cultivator, but his skills are The method is quite similar to our religion, and this matter needs further investigation..."
"So, not only the members of the Li family, but also members of my teaching, will also be disadvantageous to Li Wan?" Lan Tongzi couldn't help but muttered as he wiped Xu Hui's teaching aids.
"Lan Fu, don't make nonsense without evidence!" Xu Hui immediately stopped him and then motioned to Bai Tongzi to continue.
"Furthermore, the emperor has invited Mr. Li to attend the ceremony this afternoon, regarding how to punish His Highness Li Wan for running away this time."
"Then what?"
"Then...and then it was gone."
"Okay, then go and do your work." Xu Hui waved his hand, raised a cup of tea brewed by Tea Leaf Xian Lu Xin in front of the table, and took a sip.
Bai Tongzi, who had already reached the door, suddenly turned around and came back, saying mysteriously: "By the way, there is one more thing. I discovered it in the Lion Tower... I discovered it..."
"What?" Xu Hui put down the tea cup.
"I discovered it, a spy from Zhennan."
"What? Spy?"
The blue boy and the red boy both put down what they were doing and stared at Bai Xia with their eyes wide open.

"Ah! sneeze!"
"Ah sneeze..."
"Ah sneeze!"
At this time, Lu Ran and the three people who had bid farewell to Gu Cunhua stood at the gate of Lion City Walled City and sneezed one after another.
"What's wrong with us?" Hui Huan covered his mouth and nose and asked the two people around him.
Yang Ya didn't answer, but bared his fangs, as if to scare someone in front of him.
"Have you two never seen a pig?"
Lu Ran clasped his hands in his fists and looked at the two people in disbelief, as well as the five hundred big fat pigs in front of him that also stunned him.
Some people died, but not completely...
