In the future, Earth becomes a relic of the mythical era.

Chapter 234 Things are different now, name your price.
"Your Highness, there is a man named Li Haogu who wishes to see you. He says he was sent by Qiu Shiliang."

He also had two other people with him.

That day, Xie Lingxin was practicing her movements on the open ground outside the Tianzhu Stone Pavilion, using the Bai family's Moving Mountains and Rivers Palm Technique.

Su Zhen came to report.

Thanks to the Way of Kings, he doesn't have to spend most of his time on meditation and contemplation.

Every day is incredibly leisurely.

Aside from resting and having fun, there's still plenty of time left.

I recently learned how to refine treasures, so I've been messing around with some materials every day, not caring whether I succeed or not, just treating it as practice.

In addition, he also put all his knowledge into practice.

The data shows that while the improvement is not significant, it is comprehensive.

Well, except for life-saving techniques.

"Xu..."

Xie Lingxin withdrew her palm and exhaled a long breath of stale air.

This "Moving Mountains and Rivers" technique truly lives up to its reputation as the Bai family's unparalleled martial arts skill that has shaken the East China Sea.

Only now can I truly bring out six or seven tenths of its brilliance.

"Li Haogu?"

It must be that kid Chen Lingguan; he's pretty quick.

"Two more people? Who are they?"

Su Zhen recalled, "That Li Haogu said he was a chivalrous hero who admired His Highness."

Do you admire my hero?

Xie Lingxin was pleased and waved her hand, "Let them all come in!"

"This servant greets Your Highness, may Your Highness live a thousand years!"

Li Haogu was dressed as a eunuch, making him easy to recognize.

Upon entering the ten-acre pond and seeing Xie Lingxin, he quickly approached her, knelt down, and shouted in greeting.

He dared not be negligent in the slightest.

This is someone even the new matriarch of the palace must respect.

Upon discovering that the two men he had brought were still standing there dumbfounded, he became enraged and shouted in a shrill voice, "How dare you two! You dare not bow before His Highness? Kneel down immediately! Pay your respects to His Highness at once!"

"Me? Kneel before him?!"

These two men were none other than Master Jingshi and "Flying Eagle of the Border Town" Young Master Qian.

The two of them had finally managed to get in touch with Zheng Zhu last time, hoping to meet Wang Shoucheng.

Who knew that a lot of money would be spent, and Zheng Zhu agreed, and they were already at the door.

As a result, Wang Shoucheng died!
It was later discovered that Wang Shoucheng's death was likely related to Xie Lingxin, the Prince of Jing!
Moreover, the death of Wang Shouchang, the head of the eunuchs, was likely orchestrated by Xie Lingxin, who was reportedly rewarded by the Empress of the Great Zhou, who had been in seclusion for a long time!

The position was even given to an important official in the Thirty-Six Heavens!

Outrageous!

While the scholar Jing Shi Zhu remained calm, this young master Qian was furious.

Later, Jing Shi Zhu managed to calm him down with great difficulty.

This time, naturally, it was because Xie Lingxin was promoted.

It is an important link in the cooperation between the Great Zhou and the Federation.

Who knew that seeing Xie Lingxin wouldn't be so easy for them?

Li Haogu was the one who initially connected them with Zheng Zhu.

I bribed him with a lot of money to get the chance to bring him over, and finally I got to see him.

Young Master Qian has gone mad.

Because of this damned bastard!
I had wasted a lot of money before, and now I'm spending a lot more to see him.

The person they spent money to curry favor with is now kneeling before a lowly commoner they looked down upon!
And they actually wanted him to kneel before a lowly commoner?!

I immediately felt like I was going to explode.

But he was firmly held down by Jing Shiqi.

But the ferocity in his expression was impossible to hide.

What a fool!

Li Haogu cursed under his breath.

He regretted it; he shouldn't have coveted the money from those two rough men.

"Your Highness! These two are just roughnecks from the martial world, they don't know the rules! This servant shouldn't have been greedy for money and brought them here, I have offended Your Highness!"

"This slave deserves to die! This slave deserves to die!"

As Li Haogu spoke, he slapped himself.

He really didn't dare to fool anyone.

He was Qiu Shiliang's confidant, and had previously been placed next to Wang Shoucheng.

I knew a little about Wang Shoucheng's death.

This is inextricably linked to the prince in front of us, who was considered a useless person not long ago!

How could he dare to fool such a person?
Jing Shiqi watched Li Haogu use both hands, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

He knew Li Haogu all too well what kind of person he was.

He's a shrewd and cunning scoundrel.

If this shrewd little man can be so respectful, then the news must be true.

Border Town Eagle was furious.

I'm spending money to curry favor with you, and you treat this lowly person like this?

What am I?
"I……"

He was about to curse when Jing Shiqi glared at him, and a sense of submission welled up within him. All his anger vanished.

A chill ran down my spine.

Xie Lingxin had been observing the expressions and behaviors of these people ever since they entered.

It was easy to guess that these two were definitely Federation Trialers.

Moreover, this guy who wears his heart on his sleeve must come from a very wealthy family.

This smell is too strong, just like the Iron-Faced Man, Xiao Yan, and Wang Jinyin.

As for the one next to him, he's plain-looking and a bit ugly.

Yet it felt somewhat familiar to him.

It's definitely someone I've met before.

"Alright, get up. If you want to fight, find somewhere else to fight. I don't care. Just don't get in my way here."

Xie Lingxin walked to the Tianzhu Stone Pavilion and sat down, casually taking the towel that Suzhen handed her and wiping her sweat.

He's getting better and better at putting on airs like a prince.

What will I do when I return to the Federation?

Sigh, what a hassle...

"Yes, yes, yes! It was this servant who offended Your Highness! Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness!"

Li Haogu immediately stopped and stood up.

I know I've passed this hurdle.

Young Master Qian couldn't suppress his anger any longer and suddenly burst into flames.

"Fuck you...&%! You bastard, you think you're so great?! You're actually putting on airs in front of me?! I...!"

"Snapped!"

Before Xie Lingxin could make a move, Li Haogu slapped him away, sending him sprawling on the ground.

“Your Highness…!”

Before he could kneel down and beg for forgiveness, Xie Lingxin waved her hand expressionlessly: "Li Haogu, what brings you here today?"

Li Haogu was taken aback, and quickly presented a box: "Oh! Your Highness, this is something the Grand Ancestor sent with my regards."

"Our ancestor has been too busy with many trivial matters lately and has not been able to come and pay his respects to Your Highness. Please forgive him."

Su Zhen withdrew her glare at Young Master Qian and stepped forward to take the box back.

Xie Lingxin opened it and took a look; it was indeed Xuanhe Biyu!
good boy!
Put the box back in its original place.

He said calmly, "Li Haogu, take this man away. I don't want to see him again. As for what to do with him, you can decide for yourself."

"Yes, yes! This servant will ensure that this thief will never appear before Your Highness again in this lifetime!"

Li Haogu glanced at Young Master Qian, a sinister glint flashing in his eyes.

You little bastard! You almost killed our family!

"This servant will take her leave now!"

"You wretched creature! Get out of here!"

He bowed once, stood up, grabbed Young Master Qian by the neck and lifted him up, then angrily said to another person.

Xie Lingxin waved her hand: "He'll stay."

"Yes! This servant will take her leave now!"

The young master, carrying the money, stormed off in a huff.

Xie Lingxin then looked at the man and said, "I should know you."

Jing Shiqi glanced at Su Zhen, and Xie Lingxin sent her away.

Jing Shiqi sighed, "When I first met Brother Xie at the Dragon Palace, I knew he was no ordinary man. Sure enough, in just a short time, he has changed so much."

Dragon Palace?

"Are you destined to govern the world?"

Xie Lingxin was a little surprised.

He looked the somewhat ugly face up and down.

The person I met back then, Jing Shiqi, had a face that could rival his.

Jing Shiqi gave a wry smile: "Brother Xie, you must be ashamed. Coming from humble beginnings, how can one not get their hands dirty when working for important people?"

"Who knew that this Six Paths of Reincarnation Wheel was so magical, that it could reveal everything hidden in people's hearts without them even realizing it?"

Xie Lingxin's eyes flickered slightly.

That's a very straightforward and honest statement.

But is he really an upright person?

Jing Shiqi hesitated slightly: "Brother Xie, the person just now, his true identity is a member of a major clan on the Central Star."

"Although they are not a powerful family, their influence is not weak. If they die in the domain, it will probably be a big problem for Brother Xie in the future."

Xie Lingxin picked up the teacup on the stone table and took a sip: "Does that mean he won't cause me trouble if he doesn't die?"

Both he and Jing Shiqi could see that if this young master Qian fell into the hands of the eunuch Li Haogu, he probably wouldn't survive.

That was also his purpose.

"Ugh……"

Jing Shiqi sighed and didn't try to persuade him any further.

Although he knew from the beginning that this guy was unreliable, his family had considerable influence and resources.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for such a useless person as him to be reincarnated into the Great Zhou Dynasty and accumulate a large amount of wealth in a short period of time, which he could then use.

But I never expected him to be this useless, so impatient.

Even more unexpectedly, Xie Lingxin now possesses such prestige and power in the Great Zhou court.

Li Haogu, a despicable man, held a high position among the eunuchs, yet they were so respectful of him.

It seems unlikely that it will be possible to make a move against him in this realm and find the whereabouts of that ancient scripture on his person.

We can only return to the Federation and wait and see...

In the blink of an eye, he spoke: "Brother Xie, I've come here this time to make a deal with you."

Xie Lingxin could easily guess what he wanted and laughed, "You want to buy an official position?"

Jing Shiqi laughed and said, "That's not wrong either."

What kind of official position do you want?

Xie Lingxin did not refuse outright.

Jing Shiqi said, "I dare not ask for more; a fifth-rank official is enough."

"What do you want in exchange?"

Jing Shiqi said, "Brother Xie, please name your price, as long as I can afford it."

"Hehe." Xie Lingxin let out a strange laugh.

"Suzhen, prepare paper and ink!"

　It's almost the end of the month again, please give me some monthly votes!
