"Du Ruo, it really surprised me that you made up your mind."

The deputy director of the Interior Department received Du Ruoyou. He picked up the resignation letter written by Du Ruo and sighed slightly: "Are you so anxious to leave? You choose to give up at this time, and it may cause trouble to His Royal Highness the Princess. After all, some people have asked you to hand over you to take the blame. The Minister of Justice was killed. The police and the police couldn't even catch Chang Ye Hongming's shadow. There are many people who want to take this blame on you..."

The Inner Palace is a mysterious government agency responsible for handling all matters of royal family members, including the security and escort work of the royal family. This energetic old man was Du Ruoyou's boss when he was a guard in the imperial palace. He put down his resignation letter, took off his reading glasses, and folded his hands on his desk.

"However, if I don't quit voluntarily, they may not give up," Du Ruoyou shook his head.

"I'm not afraid of being responsible. Even if I'm guilty of this, there's nothing to say. I just don't want these people to point the finger at the Palace Highness."

"Haha, Du Ruo, you really have a samurai spirit who serves the Lord, but it's hard to say that as long as you choose to resign, the problem will be gone."

"I know this, but after thinking about it carefully, I couldn't find a better solution."

Du Ruoyou sighed deeply.

"The Countermeasures Bureau of Fujinwu was founded by me personally with the support of the Palace of Sacrifice. Well, some people are just dissatisfied with me being the director. So as long as I choose to leave, I believe those people will not continue to get entangled."

——The value of the Huojinwu countermeasures is very valuable. Anyone can see that the government and the royal family intend to devote a lot of resources to the Huojinwu countermeasures to support this organization to replace the old Sheath Lord and the Five Heavenly Sheath system... So at this time, there are also people who are greedy for the position of the Director of the Countermeasures Bureau.

"No matter what, your decision is too hasty. I suggest you meet the Palace Palace in person before making a decision..."

The old man smiled slightly and persuaded him like this.

Du Ruoyou frowned slightly. He was about to refute the old man's words when suddenly a door behind him opened.

A tall maid with hair pushed a wheelchair in. On this wheelchair was a girl with a gentle beauty with long black hair and slender eyes, wearing a light gray kimono and a blanket on her lower body.

The girl's skin was almost pale, and she felt sick all over. She folded her hands in front of her knees. When Du Ruoyou saw the appearance of the girl, she was a little surprised and lost her voice.

"Sacrifice to the Palace, why did you come here?!"

"I can roughly guess that you will come here, but no matter what you plan to do now, let me go temporarily. Let's go, someone wants to see you, and go with me immediately."

"who?"

"'Emperor' himself."

###

The prince who appeared in the office of the deputy director of the palace hall brought Du Ruoyou people to the interior of the imperial residence.

Du Ruoyou naturally did not dare to disobey the orders from the "Emperor" himself, so he could only follow the sick girl sitting in a wheelchair, that is, the prince in the palace, to move to the depths of the imperial residence together.

(This is probably the deepest location in the Imperial Palace! This is an area where I was not close to when I served as a guard in the past...)

Du Ruoyou lowered his head and glanced at the surrounding environment. This place was not the imperial residence on the ground, but the underground space below the imperial residence. It needed to take a special elevator to reach it. Those who came here for the first time would be surprised by the scene in front of them.

Nearby is a green lawn, with colorful seasonal flowers blooming all over the flowerbed. Under the deepest forest is a soft shaded avenue. Several ancient buildings in the Tang style can be seen through the branches of the forest.

These ancient buildings were obviously moved from some ancient monument on the ground little by little. This is an artificial underground garden, with birch benches, the fragrance of soil, swarms of bees and butterflies, and the chirping and gurgling sounds of birds coming from somewhere. Ordinary people will feel dizzy in an instant. It is hard to imagine how much energy it took to create such artificial scenes underground.

Fortunately, Du Ruo has been here many times as a guard and knows that this underground space is a typical artificial biosphere, a miniature artificial ecological circulation system developed by the royal family. The partner is the space development work, which is divided by the universe development team of the Department of Science and Technology and the Japanese Institute of Cosmic Science in the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Culture and Technology.

If the experiment in this biosphere is successful, humans will be able to live without relying on external supplies and only use resources in the facilities. This plan is carried out in secret by many major powers, which is considered to be the hope to lead mankind into the space age.

After walking for about ten minutes, Du Ruo pushed the princes in the palace and came to the end of the tree-shaded avenue, a slightly open depression. In this open area, there was a beautiful pavilion with a few rattan chairs inside. At this time, you could see several figures sitting there.

"Haha, isn't this the sacrifice to His Highness Xia Yin in the Palace?"

A fat old man smiled with a cane.

"I haven't seen you for a while, and you look pretty good."

"It's okay, Uncle Xianmu."

Sigong Xiayin greeted the fat old man. The other party was Prince Xianmu of Xianyuan and the most favored eldest son of the "Emperor" today.

"Guard, Takashi has several dukes from the Kyujo family. Hello everyone, I have been admitted to the hospital for a long time and have been waived."

The prince greeted several other white-haired old men sitting on chairs. The old dukes quickly stood up and saluted the temple Xia Yin.

(It's really strange. If I really want to punish a little person like me, why should I bother so many dukes and princes appear together...)

Du Ruoyou people's doubts were getting heavier and heavier. No matter how big the matter was in the countermeasures, it would not be alarmed by the senior management and the emperor himself. To put it bluntly, it was just a struggle for power among the subordinates, and there was no question of letting these big figures end directly.

"Also, even the Emperor himself would come here and issue a jade order to meet me in person. This is what I would never have expected..."

If you really want to interrogate yourself, you don’t need to make such a big fuss. You are just a small official in the department of the cabinet official. What kind of virtue is there? You need the emperor to come and ask for an inquiry in person.

On the one hand, Du Ruoyou smiled bitterly in his heart, and on the other hand, he also turned his eyes to a small pond not far away. It was an artificial fish pond, an old woman wearing a simple sweater and a fisherman's hat on her head, holding a fishing rod in her hand, and was fishing there.

Seeing this scene, Du Ruoyou twitched his eyes twice. He suddenly recognized who it was, but he hadn't noticed the other party's existence just now-
