Chu Sheng nodded thoughtfully: "Brother's words have truly cleared the fog for me, like a sudden enlightenment."
But soon, he asked with a worried look, "But what if, after it's all done, the Da Yin woman asks me for the conditions I agreed to?"
"What, you're planning to get it for free?"
"I imagine the Empress of Dayin's conditions must be extremely demanding. I'm afraid she won't be able to fulfill them. What will I do then?"
"But you have soldiers."
Shen Zhao's words immediately enlightened Chu Sheng.
"That's right, I have troops under my command. If I change my mind later, I'm not afraid of what Yu Xiyan can do to me. Why didn't I think of this?"
Chu Sheng immediately rubbed his hands together, looking eager to try.
Seeing that Chu Sheng was interested, Shen Zhao immediately pressed his advantage: "What, have you thought it through?"
"If you've thought it through, then act quickly. I'll personally sponsor you two spirit crystals as travel expenses. Let's set off now."
After saying that, he directly placed the two spirit crystals that had been prepared in advance into Chu Sheng's palm.
Chu Sheng was immediately moved to tears: "Brother, you...you...I have nothing more to say. In short, after this is done, I will definitely invite you to the Great Xia Kingdom for a feast of three thousand cups!"
"Alright, enough with the small talk, let's get going without delay."
"Well, good brother, I'm not in a hurry to leave. I plan to stay here for a while before I go!"
Shen Zhao was taken aback: "No, aren't you going to fight for the throne? Then why are you resting? You should set off immediately."
"Enough said, brother. You've treated me so well, I have to repay the favor, otherwise I'll feel really guilty."
With you by my side, the matter of the throne is practically a sure thing. There's no rush. Let me help you this once before I leave."
Chu Sheng wiped away his tears, held two spirit crystals in his hand, and before Shen Zhao could persuade him again, he resolutely stepped out of the gate of the Supreme Palace.
"Fine, I'll just consider this a done deal. Yu Xiyan, you're trying to disgust me, aren't you? Fine, then let's see who's really disgusting whom."
Shen Zhao sat down and was about to take a sip of water to moisten his throat when He Yishou came in again to report: "Master Shen, there is a woman outside who claims to be a holy maiden of the Jiaolong clan requesting an audience."
"The Jiaolong Clan?"
Shen Zhao's brow furrowed slightly, then he regained his composure.
"Let her in to talk."
"yes."
Not long after He Yishou left, a petite girl dressed in a gray bamboo robe walked shakily into the main hall of the Supreme Emperor's Mansion.
Before Shen Zhao could look up, the girl suddenly staggered and knelt on the ground.
"South Sea, Jiao... Jiao Clan Holy Maiden, Ao Xu... pays... pays respects to... Elder Shen..."
Ao Xu seemed terrified of Shen Zhao, her whole body trembling uncontrollably.
At the same time, I felt a warm current flowing uncontrollably down below me.
Shen Zhao looked at Ao Xu, whose figure was perfectly curved and trembling on the ground, and couldn't help but sneer.
If you only look at her appearance, you'll definitely be fooled by this woman.
In fact, Ao Xu was extremely cruel by nature, nourishing her appearance with human blood.
The key point is that this guy was Lin Feng's inseparable best friend in his previous life.
The two often engaged in role-playing in public, causing chaos and leaving traces of their battles everywhere in northwestern Shanxi.
"Holy Maiden of the Jiao Clan, what brings you here? Please state your purpose."
As soon as Shen Zhao spoke, Ao Xu felt the torrent beneath her intensify.
Her heart was pounding so hard she felt like it was going to jump out of her chest, and her breathing became irregular and disordered.
