"Yeah, what's wrong? Now isn't the time to worry about last names."
"A remote surname?" The two men exchanged glances. There was probably no one with the surname You in these two places, which might mean that it was a remote ethnic group.
But no one really considered...is this just an ordinary code name?
No, they weren't considered.
If you bump into a child, who would consider that this child is here to monitor you? Most people would think that the child was abducted. Besides, what can such a child do? Most of them are good at making trouble.
Even if he doesn't cause trouble, he doesn't have the strength to stay in charge.
"Alright, stop staying in the side hall all day. If you're thinking about it now, you two can go together. The library is always open to you."
Zhao Xin invited.
"No money?"
"What money do you want?"
Zhao Xin looked at him with some doubt.
Does he look like the kind of person who would covet even a child's money... Besides, it's not like that. He wouldn't do that, really.
"Your Majesty, Yuki...are we going now?"
"Go ahead."
Zhao Xin waved his hand and watched the child walk out slowly. Then he saw Qi Peng lying lazily beside him. Not only did Youxi's place become Qi Peng's, but everything on the table belonged to Qi Peng.
"You...you are so outrageous."
"Ah, Your Majesty, there's no need for us to be so reserved. Besides, at worst, I can return two boxes to you. Just let me be a little more unrestrained."
Hearing this, there was actually such an unreasonable request, which made Zhao Xin smile.
"So you mean to give me two boxes? When I withheld one box from you before, you were grimacing and acting all fierce, but now..."
"Wait a minute!"
Zhao Xin looked back at Youxi who had already left.
"Why are you so startled..."
Qi Peng was almost scared to death by the words "wait a minute".
"What's the matter? I never told you the exact location of this library, so how did this kid know it?"
“…”
Boring.
Qi Peng rolled over on the bed and stretched.
"People should have a mouth."
Zhao Xin raised his eyes, which made the servant next to him tremble. Then Zhao Xin gave orders with a cold look.
"Go, follow that kid. The library isn't close to here, and there are only three ways to get there. If she doesn't ask for directions, then that means..."
He's a spy.
And no one knows who sent this spy to him specifically to gain his so-called sympathy. This is why we say that this person is so cruel.
Are you using a child to gain other people's sympathy?
But I'm afraid there might be something wrong with this child.
But who would have thought that such a young child would have such a background?
Of course, no one thought of this, and no one was surprised by it. Even after Zhao Xin sent someone out, Qi Peng was still adding fuel to the fire and making trouble.
"What's there to ask of a child?"
"It's just a child, what kind of evil do you think he can do?"
After hearing things like this, Zhao Xin didn't want to investigate any further.
"I may not come to your place in the next two days. As for those two boxes, please hurry up and send them over when you have time. Since you don't want me to send anyone to move them, just move them yourself. Then I can just give you this side hall."
"Just think of it as ten ingots of silver a month."
Qi Peng's eyes shrank, and his pupils trembled noticeably like an earthquake, and then he blinked.
"Ten...ten ingots?"
Robbing money!
Good job.
"Not willing? If I tell the outside world that this side hall of mine is for rent, let alone ten ingots of silver, even twenty would be offered."
That's true.
But no matter what, the emperor would not rent this thing out without considering the royal dignity... Isn't it obviously a slap in the face of the royal family?
Just saying.
"Okay, since it's ten ingots, these will be your deposit. And these two boxes outside mean I can stay with you for at least six months. Your attendants will take care of your food, drink, and toilet needs."
"Ten ingots of silver are only for your accommodation here. As for the rest, I consider it a reward. Besides, when the envoys from other countries arrive, do you also plan to stay in the side hall?"
"…I'm not considered an envoy from another country, am I?"
Why? He paid the money and then the envoys from other countries came and he had to run away willingly. It's so unfair.
"I won't argue with you, and I won't tell you. I have something else to do now, so I'll leave first."
Zhao Xin just turned around, then followed Xiao Chenzi and the crowd of people away.
Qi Peng felt that even the air in the room became much better after this group of people left.
Damn it.
It's too expensive. Why doesn't he just rent an inn or a restaurant in this place? It's only one ingot of silver a month, and they're not as ruthless as this place! It's too damn ruthless. It's so ruthless that it's almost unreliable.
And after the first hour that Zhao Xin sat in the Qinzheng Hall.
"Your Majesty, we have found it."
"What did you find out? Besides, it took the child an hour to reach the library?"
Could this child be an ant's leg, walking so slowly?
This is fucking weird.
"Yes and no."
"What do you mean? Explain clearly."
"If she does, then it means she did arrive within this hour. If she doesn't, then it means she went somewhere else."
