Empress Minghuang is exceptionally talented; why would she intentionally pass the throne to a fool?
Or is the eldest princess just a front, with someone else having the real intentions?
Or perhaps, there is something special about this person.
At this moment, Qin Zhaoqiong became unfathomable in her eyes.
Suppressing his emotions, Xiao Yunshuo tentatively asked:
"I'd like to go out for a walk occasionally, to see the vast land and the everyday life of the people. I wonder if General Qin could do me that?"
The Captain Li, who was in charge of "protecting" the delegation, was keeping a very close watch on them.
Aside from taking a break while traveling, no one was allowed to go out at all.
For example, here, aside from some sights and sounds upon entering the city, we'll be confined to this small inn until we set off again tomorrow.
"Of course not," Qin Zhaoqiong refused flatly. "Why should I do you any favors on our first meeting?"
Hmm... Xiao Yunshuo was speechless.
She's really not pretending at all, and look at that look in her eyes.
It feels like I asked a really stupid question, like I'm some kind of idiot!
The meeting was brief, and neither of them achieved their goals.
However, Qin Zhaoqiong felt quite comfortable. It turned out that it was so easy to speak without beating around the bush.
Perhaps even with all their cunning, the other party didn't gain any advantage, did they?
Upon arriving at the front courtyard, they inquired about any unusual activity involving Lieutenant Li's delegation.
This person is observant; they might notice something.
"Everything is normal, and no abnormalities have been found so far."
It's not a good job, so you can't be too careful.
Not only did they prevent the delegation from contacting the outside world, even Li Duwei himself tried his best to avoid interacting with them.
After thinking about it, he still gave a reminder.
"However, this second princess must have some skill; the people in the delegation treat her with great respect, not just superficially."
Qin Zhaoqiong raised an eyebrow. "I think she's just average. She's not as pretty and clever as Sixth Sister."
Li Duwei: ?
After walking a thousand steps from the inn, Qin Zhaoqiong quietly inquired of Liu Yan whether there were any hidden experts within the sect.
"The one with the highest cultivation level on the surface is that middle-aged nanny, who is at the fourth rank. The others are still unknown."
Unless someone in the Divine Martial Realm takes action, it is very difficult for them to detect the opponent's cultivation level.
Qin Zhaoqiong nodded.
"I originally wanted to investigate and see if I could get some information, but it seems that won't be possible now."
However, the disciple of the Great Sage seems rather ordinary; Sixth Sister should be able to handle him.
The hidden flame rolled its eyes. "Our incompetent Sixth Prince?"
In Fengjing, she wouldn't be able to handle such a situation; it would probably cost at least 100,000 or 200,000 taels of silver to hire her.
But if they really faced off...
Who can get the better deal from her?
