Chapter 199: The Heart Technique of Sewing More and More
Translator: 549690339
As everyone knew, King Sheng You was the Emperor’s younger brother, and he held a high position in the court. It could be said that he was only below one person and above ten thousand people. Even if those first-class officials came, they would only be left in the dust.
Not only the Imperial Court, Great Chu, even the Jianghu feared King Sheng You, including Great Yue State and the Barbarian Land.
These were all the results of the battle that King Sheng You had led thousands of troops in his early years.
With such a person, what was there to be sneaky about? He had to send a female scout over to tell him secretly.
Xu Bai was a little curious. At the same time, he had a vague guess in his heart. He seemed to have guessed someone.
If even King Sheng You could come here quietly, then there was only one person.
–Emperor of Great Chu.
Thinking of this, Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and continued to wait for the woman in the costume to speak.
Just as the woman in the costume had said, she was indeed a newbie. After a
moment of panic, she organized her words and told him everything that had happened.
“Your Highness returned to the capital and chatted with His Majesty before heading straight to the border. “The woman in the costume straightened her long hem and said, “Before I left, the content of the conversation with His
Majesty was related to you. I also specially came to inform you of this matter.”
Xu Bai didn’t say anything. He was waiting for the woman in the costume to continue.
It was exactly as he had guessed. To be able to make King Sheng You secretly send someone over, it was indeed the Great Chu Emperor. He just didn’t know what else was going on.
“After learning about you, even His Majesty began to cherish talents. The two of them had a big fight in the royal study at that time, and after that, His Highness left.”the woman in costume said.
“However, before leaving, His Highness made a bet with His Majesty about the matter of Yunlai Mansion.”
Yunlai Mansion?
Xu Bai raised his eyebrows and thought to himself that things were not that simple.
“So Yun Zihai and I came to Yunlai Manor because of His Majesty’s plan.” He couldn’t help but recall what had happened before he was in the city.
He couldn’t help but recall what had happened before he was in the city.
He, Yun Zihai, and the others dealt with the eighth prince and then released King Sheng You. After King Sheng You returned to the capital, he quarreled with the emperor, and then Yun Zihai was enfeoffed to Yunlai Manor.
In other words, if Yun Zihai had not done this alone, he might have been assigned to another residence instead of the Yunlai Residence.
After coming to Yunlai Mansion, Xu Bai also saw how deep the water here was.
He had been assassinated twice as soon as he arrived. The matter inside was not something that ordinary people could settle.
Based on the information he had obtained previously, it seemed that the
Emperor had arranged for the two of them to be here with a deeper meaning.
The woman in the costume nodded.” That’s true. The waters in Yun Nan Prefecture run deep. There are many complicated roots and many forces gathered here, so it’s very difficult to deal with the things inside.”
This answer confirmed Xu Bails guess.
“What is the bet?” Xu Bai asked.
“Let’s bet on the governance of Yunlai Mansion.” “His Highness said that you can return Yunlai Manor to its former glory, but His Majesty thinks it’s impossible,” the woman in the costume replied.”
At this point, the woman in the costume looked at Xu Bai curiously, her eyes darting around.
Of course, she was curious. Before she came, she had heard from His Highness that he valued Xu Bai very much. It was unique.
Although the woman in the costume was only a newbie and hadn’t joined the army for long, this was the first time she had heard his highness praise her.
Therefore, she was really curious about Xu Bai. After seeing Xu Bai today, she dispelled her curiosity.
However, just because he had given up, it didn’t mean that he didn’t have new curiosity.
“What are their stakes?”Xu Bai placed his hand on his chin and rubbed it gently as he asked the question in his heart.
Since it was a bet, there must be a stake.
These two were the Great Chu’s First and Second Heads. The bet would definitely not be simple.
“If His Highness wins, His Majesty will not interfere in your affairs. You can do whatever you want. If His Highness loses, His Majesty will have to compete with His Highness for you. “the woman in costume said.
The wilderness fell silent. After the woman in the costume finished speaking, Xu Bai raised his head and said in a helpless tone.
“Am I very handsome?”
The woman in the costume was stunned. She looked at Xu Bai carefully and then nodded with certainty. “Yes!”
The word ” mm ” was said with emphasis, and the answer was very firm.
‘Why are they all looking for me? Why would the dignified Emperor and His Highness make things difficult for a mere Rank-8 like me?”Xu Bai was speechless.
To be honest, he really didn’t want to get involved. He just wanted to focus on the progress bar.
Why did these two treat him as a talent? Was he a talent? He really wasn’t.
He didn’t know how to march and fight, nor did he know how to rule the country and pacify the world. He only knew how to kill.
‘You might not know this, but at that time, His Majesty asked an expert who was proficient in divination to calculate your matter. In the end, that expert said something directly.”The woman in the costume said quietly, “Uncommon talent.’”‘
Xu Bai was speechless.
The woman in the costume didn’t see Xu Bai’s expression and continued,””As for the rest, I don’t know either. In any case, everyone thinks quite highly of you. It’s said that the person who divined your fortune was also killed on the spot by His Majesty because he was afraid that news of you would leak out.”
Xu Bai fell into deep thought..
