In the study.
Prime Minister Zhao and General Lin stood on either side, and both bowed when they saw the Third Prince enter.
Your Highness
Your Highness
Xuanyuan Yonghao sat down in the rosewood chair, his eyes lowered, his expression indifferent.
After a long silence, Lin Liqiang couldn't hold back any longer and spoke first.
"Your Highness! I have never seen that woman's martial arts style before, and she overheard my conversation with Prime Minister Zhao while hiding under the tree. I believe that now is a critical moment, and we should rather kill a hundred innocent people than let one guilty person go free!"
The voice of a tough guy carries a steely resolve and vigilance from the very core of his being.
Xuanyuan Yonghao's eyelids twitched, and he raised his eyes, gazing at General Lin with dark, unfathomable eyes. The air was thick with tension, and then he uttered a single word.
"profound?"
I don't know whether I agree or disagree.
Seeing that His Highness was still hesitant to express his opinion, Lin Liqiang couldn't help but ask again.
"Your Highness..."
But as soon as he uttered the words "Your Highness," Prime Minister Zhao reached out and stopped him.
Zhao Ziyan's voice was refined and gentle.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid the First Prince and the Second Prince will take note of my presence here today with General Lin."
He paused as he spoke, then continued...
"The eldest prince seems to have noticed something, and it feels like he's deliberately trying to probe Your Highness."
Xuanyuan Yonghao's voice was gentle, but his words carried a chill.
If you can't hide it, then don't hide it.
He curled his lips into a smile, his deep, dark eyes fixed on a certain spot, always giving people the creeps.
A light laugh
"Even if you dig out the bottom, you won't be able to stir up much trouble."
Then, they talked for another half an hour.
As the event was drawing to a close, Lin Liqiang couldn't help but bring up the matter of the maid Su Yan again.
"Your Highness, I believe that the maidservant..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xuanyuan Yonghao interrupted him.
General Lin
"Your subject is present."
Someone's tone was low and gloomy
"Since when did you start daring to meddle in my family affairs?"
The air fell silent for a moment, then Lin Liqiang clasped his hands in a fist salute.
"Your subject dares not."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Yuan Yonghao, who was sitting in the chair, smiled, and the cool and aloof aura he exuded seemed to dissipate.
Southern Tang Dynasty
"exist"
"Take care, gentlemen."
"yes"
As he spoke, Nan Tang opened the door to his study and gestured for him to enter.
After Lin Liqiang and Zhao Ziyan left Xuan Yuan Yonghao's territory, Lin Liqiang hesitated for a moment.
"Prime Minister, what is this between us?"
He was a little unsure.
Zhao Ziyan nodded, somewhat amused and exasperated.
"I was kicked out."
One of them held civil power, and the other held military power.
Wherever he went, he was treated with utmost respect, even by the current emperor, who showed him deference.
Now, he was chased out by the very prince he supported, like a fly being shooed away.
Only they themselves probably know the true feeling behind it.
Lin Liqiang's expression was complicated for a moment, but he quickly became preoccupied with Su Yan again.
He was still bothered by that maid, whose skills were extraordinary and whose background was suspicious.
I placed it by His Highness's side because I was afraid that something might happen to him.
Lin Liqiang frowned for a long time.
"Your Highness should be reminded to be vigilant."
In contrast, Zhao Ziyan beside him still appeared refined and gentle, without the slightest worry.
Lin Liqiang's doubts
"Is the Prime Minister not worried?"
What are you worried about?
"That maid is exceptionally skilled and has a suspicious background. She might very well try to harm His Highness."
Zhao Ziyan raised his eyebrows, his voice gentle yet meaningful.
"General, what kind of person does His Highness think he is?"
Lin Liqiang patted his chest, his voice rough and powerful.
"Needless to say?! They value loyalty, are brave and resourceful, and have never looked down on us warriors."
