Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 11199: Chapter 11198: The Battle of the Three Kingdoms!

“..”

“Are you toying with me?” Chu Zhongyuan suddenly stood up.

The so-called rules of worship to the heavens sounded similar to the rules of the will of the ancestors related to worship to the ancestors, but in reality, they were worlds apart.

The latter was the core rule, and its size was enough to support the appearance of a royal residence.

On the other hand, the rules of worship looked big on the surface, but they were actually just ordinary rules.

At most, it was slightly larger than the average man-made rule, and could barely be considered a pseudo-core rule. That was all.

The two were completely different.

With the Chu royal residence’s current situation, a single sacrificial rule would not be able to solve the problem.

Bai Shizu smiled faintly.” Don’t get too excited. We still have some other rules in our hands. As long as your Chu royal family is willing to pay, we can provide them unconditionally. It’s enough to ensure that your Chu royal family passes safely.”

“Bone tapping and marrow sucking?” Chu Zhongyuan was furious. Don’t you think that you’re eating too unsightly?”

Bringing out the Rules Design Institute was already the Chu royal residence’s bottom line. This was already a huge decision.

If they had to rely on other core resources, then even if they barely managed to get past this obstacle, the Chu royal residence would not be able to recover completely.

“Don’t get angry yet. Anger won’t solve the problem. Think about it carefully. As long as we can make a deal, you will be able to get the full backing of King Qin’s Mansion. The other families won’t dare to find trouble with you again. This bargaining chip isn’t small.”

” Besides,” Bai Shizu said faintly,” if you trade with other families, not only will you benefit others, but you will also cause your own family to fall into eternal damnation. Why bother?”

“Do you really think you can defeat this old man?”

Chu Zhongyuan sneered and turned to leave.” I’ll go find the king now and tell him what we just said. Let’s see if he believes you or me!”

The subordinate guarding the door wanted to stop him, but he was pushed away by one of his shoulders.

He looked like an old man, but he was also a true expert of the royal power. Moreover, he was definitely not to be underestimated.

Even the elite experts carefully selected by the Safety Inspection Division were nothing but decorations in front of him unless they formed a large formation.

Bai Shizu watched this scene from behind and did not stop it.

Chu Zhongyuan was already a dish on his plate. No matter how much he struggled, he would not be able to escape from his grasp in the end.

The fish had already taken the bait. What he had to do now was to maintain his patience and walk it for a while. When the strength of the fish was almost exhausted, it would not be too late to pull the hook back.

Chu Zhongyuan walked out of the secret room and met Zhao Wang and Lin Yi.

Chu Zhongyuan didn’t even look at Lin Yi. He just bowed to King Zhao and left.

“What’s going on?” The King of Zhao was stunned. In my impression, he has always been the most old-fashioned and courteous. He is meticulous in his words and actions. Even if the sky falls, he wouldn’t be so flustered, right?”

“Maybe there’s something urgent.”

Lin Yi looked at her back thoughtfully.

He had followed King Zhao to the Chu royal residence this time. Other than bidding for the Chu royal residence’s Rules Design Institute, another important reason was to observe Chu Zhongyuan face to face.

In the list of spies that Guan Zhengxuan had given him, Chu Zhongyuan had the highest status and the greatest value.

It would be a pity if he was abandoned and exposed.

On the other hand, subduing him and keeping him in the Chu royal residence was the most valuable way for Lin Yi.

However, the prerequisite was to first investigate whether this person was useful or not.

Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat as he sent out a thread of the world’s will and attached it to Chu Zhongyuan’s head.

But then, he was slightly shocked.

He was shocked to discover that Chu Zhongyuan had another consciousness attached to him.

This spirit sense was extremely well hidden, and normal spirit sense couldn’t detect it at all. Luckily, the world’s will was of a higher level, and it was attached to the same person, so Lin Yi could see through it.

“Did you meet someone in the same industry?”

A faint thread connected to the source of the consciousness.

Lin Yi followed the clues and turned his head to see the owner of the source walking towards him with a smile.

It was Bai Shizu.

Bai Shizu smiled and greeted the King of Zhao. From his words, it was impossible to tell that the King of Qin and the King of Zhao had a blood feud.

King Zhao curled his lips in disdain.” Stop pretending in front of me. I’m disgusted.”

He gave Lin Yi a look and walked into the main hall.

Lin Yi stayed behind to chat with Shizu.

After all, they had worked together for a short period of time, and now they were both the four managers of the Safety Inspection Department. There would be many interactions in the future, so there was no need to make things too difficult.

Of course, the most important thing was to probe Bai Shizu’s intention of monitoring Chu Zhongyuan.

” I heard that Brother Lin has done a great thing in the Prince Zhao’s estate,” Bai Shizu said in a familiar tone.” He has turned the entire estate upside down. His achievements are remarkable.”

” That was King Zhao’s doing. It has nothing to do with me. Don’t mock me.”

Lin Yi smiled and waved his hand.

Bai Shizu said meaningfully,” No matter what, that is Brother Lin’s achievement. After this, the entire Zhao Estate will be much more reliable. My King is full of praise for you, Brother Lin.”

“Qin Wang doesn’t seem like the kind of person who likes to praise people.” Lin Yi didn’t comment.

Bai Shizu laughed.” I’m telling the truth. My king doesn’t really praise people. The only exception is you, Brother Lin.”

“Then I’m really flattered.”

Lin Yi laughed.

However, he believed that the King of Qin would be happy to see this big change in the Prince Zhao’s residence. After all, the Prince Zhao’s residence had suffered a great loss after this wave. It was only right for the King of Qin’s residence to stand on the enemy’s side.

“How’s Brother Bai’s progress in the Chu royal residence?” Lin Yi asked.

“Brother Lin, are you here for cross-supervision today?” Bai Shizu glanced at him.

The four heads of the Safety Inspection Division had the right to supervise each other. As long as they did not interfere with the inspection, they had the right to know each other’s progress.

Of course, the exact extent of their cooperation depended on their tacit understanding.

Lin Yi smiled.” I’m just asking. If you’re willing, we can talk about the weather together. Or, have you eaten?”

“..”

” Brother Lin?” Bai Shizu was stunned for a moment before he couldn’t help but smile.” Brother Lin is indeed a wonderful person!”

However, he immediately began to talk about the progress of the investigation at the Chu royal residence.

As he spoke, Lin Yi could feel the world’s consciousness monitoring Chu Zhongyuan’s every move.

On the other side.

Chu Zhongyuan went to King Chu’s study room and happened to see King Chu and four beautiful maids having fun in the room. The atmosphere in the study room was very lewd.
