A total of thirteen people from the entire dark guard team went to investigate the vampires this time.

Fortunately, Su Qianqian usually let them drink spiritual spring water, and because of this, they were able to successfully cross the poisonous forest and find the lair of the vampires.

After listening to Long Yi's report, Chu Junze realized that the blood clan was actually an assassination organization trained by Chu Xian, the founding emperor of Zhao State.

Those people in the organization have been soaked in poison since childhood until they become medicine men who are immune to all poisons. Then they undergo devilish killing training and can only start carrying out assassination missions after they pass the training.

Later, before Chu Xian passed away, he issued an order that all members of the blood clan must be buried with him after his death, because he did not want to leave this elite team to anyone. He wanted to bring them all to the underworld to continue to achieve his glorious cause.

As a result, this news was accidentally known to the leader of the blood clan at that time, which led to their rebellion. Since then, the blood clan, an assassination organization, has been committed to killing all members of the royal family of Zhao Kingdom.

"It seems that the strength of the blood clan cannot be underestimated today." Chu Junze frowned tightly.

He knew very well that such a powerful and mysterious assassination organization would become a huge problem if not handled properly.

"Your Majesty, should we take action to completely eradicate the vampires?" Long Yi asked.

Chu Junze was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "The blood clan has existed for a long time, and its roots are deep. If we forcibly eradicate them, it may cause even greater trouble. This matter still needs to be considered carefully."

Finally, after careful consideration, Chu Junze decided to send people to secretly monitor the movements of the vampires while strengthening the palace's protective measures.

In addition, he also deeply realized that in order to fight against powerful enemies like the vampires, he must have more powerful strength.

For example, this time, if he had not agreed to Su Qianqian's suggestion before, and had been giving these secret guards the spiritual spring water to drink, which not only made them immune to all poisons, but also improved their internal strength.

This time they were unable to successfully cross the poisonous fog forest and complete the pursuit mission.

"It's a pity that so many of them ran away!" Long Yi said regretfully.

"Yes!" Chu Junze continued, "Although many of them escaped, at least all our people returned safely, which is already very good!"

Hearing his words, Long Yi felt warm in his heart. After so many years, the emperor's treatment of them has never changed.

By the time they finally finished their conversation, the lights had already come on.

Chu Junze sat on the dragon chariot and hurried towards Cuizhuxuan. Although it was a little late, he was sure that his Qianqian would save dinner for him.

Everyone in the entire harem knows that the emperor only favors Concubine Fu Zhaoyi, and he never goes to the palaces of other concubines.

Especially now that Concubine Fu Zhaoyi is pregnant, no one dares to offend her.

When Chu Junze first arrived at Cuizhuxuan, he saw Xiao Shunzi guarding the palace gate, apparently waiting for someone.

When Xiao Shunzi saw the emperor coming, he immediately walked over to greet him and said, "Your Majesty, your servant is here to see you. Your Majesty, please come this way. Your Majesty said she wants to treat you to something special!"

Hearing this, Chu Junze raised his eyebrows and couldn't help feeling happy.

When he walked into the dining room in the side hall, the rich aroma was so strong that it almost made him dizzy.

Su Qianqian looked at him with a smile on her face, "Isn't it fragrant? Do you want to try it?"

Looking at her shining eyes, Chu Junze smiled and sat beside her, and asked gently: "Well, Xiang, so what is this?"

He pointed to the small stove on the table. On the stove was a very special pot with food bubbling in it. There were various vegetables and meats beside it, and asked curiously.

Su Qianqian replied with a smile: "This is called hot pot. This side has a spicy beef oil soup base, and that side has a non-spicy mushroom soup base. Just put whatever you want in the pot and cook it.

This is my first hot pot meal in winter, so I want to share it with you. ”

While she introduced him how to eat hotpot, she also prepared the dipping sauce for him.

After hearing this, Chu Junze smiled slightly, reached out and took a piece of mutton and put it into the spicy pot to dip it in. After taking it out, he dipped it in some sesame paste and put it into his mouth. His mouth was immediately full of freshness and fragrance. The hot and spicy taste made a layer of sweat appear on his forehead.

"Not bad, very delicious." Chu Junze praised with surprise on his face.

Seeing this, Su Qianqian also happily picked up a piece of beef and put it into the pot. After waiting for a while, she took it out and blew on it, then brought it to Chu Junze's mouth, "Try this too, the beef is very fresh, I got it from the space."

Chu Junze felt warm in his heart, opened his mouth and took a bite. He looked at her while eating, his eyes full of love.

The two of them ate hot pot and chatted at the same time, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

Su Qianqian told him a lot about the types of food that people liked in the world where she once lived.

The more Chu Junze listened, the more interested he became. Especially now that winter was approaching, this hot pot was very suitable for winter, so he told her his idea.

The restaurant that was opened before is now doing very good business, especially the menu provided by Su Qianqian, which contains many dishes that are not available here.

"We can launch a hot pot set meal before winter," Chu Junze said, "and add some special dishes, it will definitely be very popular."

Su Qianqian nodded in agreement, "This is a good idea, but there are many kinds of hot pot ingredients, so we need to prepare enough."

"Don't worry about that," Chu Junze said confidently, "I have a farm in the suburbs of Beijing, where I raise a lot of cattle, sheep, pigs, and some vegetables, so don't worry about the ingredients, they are guaranteed to be fresh."

"Okay, let's do this. Your farm will supply the hot pot restaurant, and we can take our own food from the space." Su Qianqian added.

"Okay, but the food in your space is really good, especially the food that has been watered by the spiritual spring water. It has excellent effects! So we still have to control it and only supply it to our own people."

In the following days, Chu Junze and Su Qianqian were busy preparing for the opening of the hot pot restaurant.

They carefully selected various ingredients, developed a rich and varied menu, and hired experienced chefs and service staff.

Finally, with the arrival of winter, the hot pot restaurant officially opened.

On the opening day, the restaurant was packed with customers who praised the delicious hot pot. Chu Junze and Su Qianqian saw the lively scene in the restaurant, smiled at each other, and felt a sense of accomplishment.

From then on, this hot pot restaurant became a popular restaurant in Beijing, and its business became more and more prosperous.

Let’s not talk about all this for now. After Chu Junze and Su Qianqian happily finished their hot pot, they walked hand in hand in the hall.

At this time, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier. It is said that every autumn rain brings a chill. Su Qianqian could clearly feel that the weather was getting colder.
