In the living room, Shangguan Yunlan, who was wearing a green suit and a veil, sat on a chair. Behind him stood four black-robed warriors. They were Shangguan Yunlan's four sedan bearers.
Dian Wei stood next to the main seat, his hand on the hilt of his sword, his eyes slightly closed.
It was only when Li Lin came in with four sword attendants that he cupped his fists."Young Master!"
"Greetings, Your Highness King Jing."
Shangguan Yunlan, who was sitting on the chair, stood up and bowed to Li Lin. He used a man's etiquette, not a woman's.
Hearing Shangguan Yunlan's pleasant voice and seeing her bright eyes, Li Lin slightly moved and reached out to support her.
"Lord Seal Envoy, there's no need to be so polite."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
"Please sit."
After sitting down at the main seat, Li Lin looked at the untouched teacup beside Shangguan Yunlan and asked,""But the tea doesn't suit your appetite? The Shangguan Clan's palm print didn't move."
Li Lin did this on purpose.
Shangguan Yunlan was wearing a veil when he saw him. Obviously, he did not intend to take it.
And to drink tea, one had to lift their veil.
"I'm not thirsty."
" Mm." Li Lin nodded and stopped smiling."I wonder if there's something you need?”
Shangguan Yunlan was stunned. He turned to look at Li Lin. After a while, he picked up the teacup next to him, covered it with his hands, lifted his veil slightly, and took a sip.
"It's indeed good tea."
"Hahaha, this is good tea. If you like it, you can bring some back later.”
"Thank you, Your Highness." Shangguan Yunlan thanked him and said,""This time, I have received orders to hand over the warhorses. I wonder if Your Highness is ready.”
"Of course I'm ready."
Seeing Li Lin nod his head, Shangguan Yunlan waved his hand lightly. A sedan chair bearer bowed slightly and walked out.
Soon after, four Black Knights wearing leather armor carried two large chests into the hall and placed them there.
"Your Highness King Jing, there are 20,000 taels of purple gold here, which is equivalent to 2,000,000 taels of silver.”
"Er 'Lai."
"I'm here!"
"Take it."
"Here!"
Dian Wei went out and summoned several soldiers from the Breaking Ranks Camp to carry the two large chests away without checking them.
"Your Highness, are you not worried that the number is wrong?" Shangguan Yunlan said deliberately.
"Don't worry. After all, the warhorses are still in my hands. Someone will check them out when we store them in the warehouse.”Li Lin said with a smile.
“.……”
Shangguan Yunlan was speechless when he saw Li Lin's expression.
She realized that in front of this King Jing, all her tricks and schemes seemed to be useless.
The other party did not care about him at all.
This made Shangguan Yunlan feel a sense of defeat.
"Seal Envoy Shangguan, I heard that something big happened in Bozhou?”Just as Shangguan Yunlan was letting his imagination run wild, Li Lin spoke again.
“.……”Looking at Li Lin, who was sitting at the head of the table and drinking his tea, Shangguan Yunlan's mind was racing.
She didn't know why King Jing suddenly mentioned this matter.
After all, the Imperial Censorate had already shifted their focus of suspicion to King Jing and the Prince of Yan, Li Yi.
And after investigation and speculation, King Jing was even more suspicious.
Could it be that King Jing was prepared to kill them…
Shangguan Yunlan frowned slightly.
"If it's inconvenient for the palm-imprint master, you can not say it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Chu, Liang Shi, and Liu Ben entered the room. At the same time, there were nearly a hundred soldiers from the Yue Cavalry Battalion outside.
“.……”
Was this how she could not say anything?
Shangguan Yunlan sighed in his heart. He knew that he had to say something.
He stood up and cupped his hands." Reporting to Your Highness, the Rearguard Commandery of Bowang County in Bo Prefecture and the Hundred Households of Luo Town were massacred. All the Black Knights were killed except for the Chief Banner.”
"Is that so? No wonder there are so many Black Knights in White Cloud City.”
“.……”Shangguan Yunlan was at a loss for words. Your Highness King Jing, if this goes on, you'll kill the chat.
"This King doesn't have any other intentions."
Seeing Shangguan Yunlan's reaction, Li Lin smiled in his heart, but his face did not change at all.""However, we all know what the Imperial Censorate does.”
"If you have nothing to do, don't go near the military camp, the Imperial Residence, and other sensitive places.”
"Also, it's best not to stuff people into my yamen. Otherwise, if they were discovered, none of them would be able to survive.”
"Let the professionals handle the professional matters. Don't go to the yamen to spy on information, understand?”
"Yes, I understand."
Even Shangguan Yunlan was shocked when he was locked onto by the auras of the two great generals, Dian Wei and Xu Chu.
"That's good."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shangguan Yunlan felt his body lighten. The pressure that had just been exerted on her suddenly disappeared.
She understood that this was a warning from King Jing.
This King Jing actually didn't know how to be gentle with women at all.
Shangguan Yunlan suddenly had such a thought.
Shangguan Yunlan was shocked when he realized what he was thinking.
She was the Imperial Censorate's Palmprint Envoy, an expert in the second realm of the Divine Treasure Realm, and she was only in her twenties.
How could such a talented person like him be interested in a kid who had just turned seventeen?
But then, she had to admit it.
Although this King Jing was only seventeen years old, he had several Divine Treasure Realm experts under him, and he was willing to submit to him. Such a person really couldn't be judged by age.
Furthermore…This King Jing's aura was of the Primordial Chaos, and he couldn't see through his opponent's realm even when he opened his spiritual mind.
It was as if His Highness King Jing was just an ordinary person with a relatively exuberant Qi and blood.
However, she knew that this King Jing was definitely not an ordinary person.
"Zhongkang!"
"I'm here." Xu Chu, who entered, cupped his fists.
"Take the palmprint envoy and the others to take over the horses.”
"Here."
"Your Highness." Xu Chu had just received the order when Shangguan Yunlan stood up.
"What is it? Is there something wrong?" Li Lin looked over curiously.
"These matters can be handled by my subordinates. Yun Lan plans to stay in White Cloud City for a period of time. I wonder if Your Highness will welcome him?”
"Welcome, of course." "The Palmprint Envoy is a beauty. How could I not welcome her?" Li Lin said with a smile.”
"Chunlan, go prepare a courtyard and let the palm print enter."”
"Yes, Young Master."
"Seal Envoy, you can stay in this Prince's residence. However, because your subordinates are men, they cannot enter and can only stay in the front residence.”
“.……”
Shangguan Yunlan, who had originally planned to live in the Black Knights 'stronghold, was once again stunned. He looked at the Sword Servant who had left. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and agreed.
The reason why she stayed was to find out more about King Jing's secrets.
Now, it was naturally good to be able to live in the Imperial Residence openly.
However, looking at Li Lin's enthusiastic reception, she had a bad feeling.
