Chapter 176 The Zhou Boy Is Unscrupulous (2)
“They’ve already set off on time.” Eunuch Zhao knew what Emperor Yuan Feng wanted to ask and continued, “The Demon Executing Army’s Lord Luo Ling and Lord Li Tongyang are already waiting at the border. They will secretly follow the diplomatic mission.”
Luo Ling and Li Tongyang were both first-rank martial artists.
Two first-rank martial artists were dispatched at the same time. In addition, there was Lu Wenshuang, a Grandmaster, as well as hundreds of ranked guards.
If nothing unexpected happened, protecting Zhou Shu wouldn’t be a problem.
Emperor Yuan Feng nodded. “Where’s Wuyou? Is she still mad at me?”
Eunuch Zhao hesitated. “Perhaps Her Highness has too many official duties at the Forging Division…”
It had been several days since Yin Wuyou came to pay her respects.
“No matter how much work she has, can she have more than me?” Emperor Yuan Feng snorted coldly. “This damn girl, I really spoiled her too much in the past!”
“Your Majesty, Her Highness is actually quite sensible,” Eunuch Zhao whispered. “Wasn’t she the one who discovered Marquis Zhou’s talent?
“Her Highness still has Your Majesty in her heart. She specially sent someone to bring the Light Bearing Sword and Night Practice Sword into the palace…” “Oh?” Emperor Yuan Feng was stunned. He looked at the wooden box Eunuch Zhao had brought over. This girl is actually willing to give me the Light Bearing Sword and Night Practice Sword?
Doesn’t she treasure them a lot? “Bring it over. Let me take a look!”
Emperor Yuan Feng waved his hand. Eunuch Zhao swallowed the words he was about to say. Emperor Yuan Feng took the wooden box and opened it. He first sensed it carefully before reaching out to touch it. He felt a cold sensation in his hand, and his spiritual essence moved slightly. Emperor Yuan Feng finally felt the existence of the three swords personally!
Emperor Yuan Feng looked at Eunuch Zhao and asked. “Great companion, do you think Wuyou colluded with the Zhou brat?”
“This Zhou brat isn’t stupid. He clearly named them Three Swords of Yin Tianzi, but he dared to risk universal condemnation to give them to Wuyou. Do you think he gave them to Wuyou so that she could in turn give them to me?
“In order to win Wuyou’s favor, this brat is really unscrupulous!”
Emperor Yuan Feng snorted coldly. The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Even if he was magnanimous, the name Three Swords of Yin Tianzi wasn’t just for show!
After the military parade, quite a few officials submitted an official request to impeach Zhou Shu.
If it were any other emperor, they would have taken this brat away and interrogated him!
But thinking about it this way, this brat gave Three Swords of Yin Tianzi to Wuyou so that Wuyou could personally give them to me. This way, Wuyou wins my favor, and he wins Wuyou’s favor…
This damn brat, he is really scheming!
Eunuch Zhao: “…”
He felt that the emperor might be overthinking things, but what could he say?
This is too tough.
“Your Majesty is wise.” Eunuch Zhao could only agree.
“This girl dares to draw commission from my things. She is really worthy of the title of the grand minister of the Forging Division!”
The Forging Division drew commission from the weapons forged by Forging Masters. After all, they enjoyed the benefits of the Forging Division.
Previously, when Zhou Shu forged the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, Emperor Yuan Feng had asked if he had registered the weapons with the Forging Division for commission drawing.
He didn’t expect that his Three Swords of Yin Tianzi had contributed part of their cost to the Forging Division!
Two of the three swords were left. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Great companion, bring some lychees that the south offered as tribute to that girl,” Emperor Yuanfeng said.
By saying this, he clearly forgave Yin Wuyou and found a way to make up with her.
“Yes, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, when Her Highness sent someone to deliver the swords, she also sent a letter. Would you like to take a look?” Eunuch Zhao said.
“Bring it over.” Emperor Yuan Feng was in a great mood. The Three Swords of Yin Tianzi were only yellow-grade weapons. In terms of power, they were naturally inferior to heaven-grade weapons.
But to Emperor Yuan Feng, the power of a weapon was not important. He didn’t need to fight with anyone.
The Three Swords of Yin Tianzi were invisible to the naked eye. How miraculous was this? This was why the emperor was interested in them.
He took the letter from Eunuch Zhao, opened the envelope, and saw the elegant handwriting. She is indeed my daughter. Her handwriting is beautiful, like mine.
Emperor Yuan Feng smiled happily.
His gaze fell on the letter.
The smile on his face gradually froze, and his expression turned uglier and uglier.
A moment later, his expression turned furious.
Thump!
He slapped his desk hard.
Eunuch Zhao was shocked.
“Your Majesty…”
Eunuch Zhao didn’t know what had happened.
“This wretched girl is really trying to anger me to death!” Emperor Yuan Feng angrily shouted. “Look for yourself!”
He threw the letter in his hand away and slammed his palm on the desk.
Cracks appeared on the hard wooden desk. He would have to change desks again.
Eunuch Zhao quickly picked up the letter and read through it.
Then his expression became very strange.
He stole a glance at the enraged Emperor Yuan Feng. Is His Majesty being too smart for his own good?
“Your Majesty, do you want me to invite Her Highness back?” Eunuch Zhao said cautiously.
He folded the letter and covered up the glaring ‘I’m leaving. Don’t worry about me.’
“Do you know when she left? Bring her back? With this wretched girl’s cultivation, which one of you can bring her back unscathed?”
Emperor Yuan Feng was enraged.
Although he was angry, she was still his daughter.
Yin Wuyou’s cultivation was already at the second rank of the Martial Dao. Even if a first-rank expert made a move, it would be easy to kill her, but it wouldn’t be easy to subdue her.
If she didn’t cooperate, who could bring her back to the capital?
No matter what, she was still the princess of Great Xia. Who would dare to truly capture her?
“Should we send the lord?” Eunuch Zhao whispered.
He was referring to Yin Changhao. Yin Changhao was Emperor Yuan Feng’s younger brother and Yin Wuyou’s uncle. He was also a first-rank expert.
Perhaps only if he went personally could he bring back Yin Wuyou.
If he sent other first-rank experts, it would be impossible for them to really fight Yin Wuyou. After all, if they really fought, they could easily hurt Yin Wuyou.
“He has something to do. He can’t go!” Emperor Yuan Feng said angrily.
He paced back and forth, occasionally punching the air.
Eunuch Zhao kept quiet out of fear, not even daring to breathe loudly.
After venting his anger, Emperor Yuan Feng gradually calmed down.
He said coldly, “Let this wretched girl die outside! At most, I’ll just pretend that I don’t have this daughter!”
Moments later, he suddenly raised his head.
“Send a message to Luo Ling and Li Tongyang. Tell them to pay attention to this wretched girl’s whereabouts!
“Does she think I’m a fool? The world is so big, and she wants to take a look?
“She just wants to go look for that brat!
“Does she think I’m sending Zhou Shu to his death? What nonsense!”
A thousand miles away from Chang’an…
Two unbelievably handsome young masters were riding their horses on the official road.
“Young Master, do you think Master will lose his temper?” the attendant said with a worried expression.
“Don’t worry. My father’s temper will last for at most three days.” Yin Wuyou said confidently. Father should have seen the letter by now, right? Unfortunately, it was already too late. She had already left Chang’an. The emperor could forget about capturing her back.
“But Young Master, why aren’t we going with the main team?” Haitang blinked. “We don’t know which route the team is taking. What if we miss them?”
“No, we won’t miss them!” Yin Wuyou said confidently. “There’s only one path to enter Great Qin. No matter which path they take, they will eventually reach Hangu Pass. As long as we wait there, we will definitely be able to see them.
“In any case, even if it’s dangerous, it’s only after we enter Great Qin. We just have to join the team before we enter Great Qin.”
She had done her homework. She didn’t leave home on impulse.
Thinking of this, Yin Wuyou patted the longsword at her waist, which was hard to see with the naked eye. Zhou Shu, since you’ve given me the Three Swords of Yin Tianzi, I’ll be your bodyguard for once. I’m very kind, right?
