Zhen Gang, one of the Six Sword Slaves, was also very talented, so Zhao Gao trained him as a junior leader.

Although Duanshui lacks management talent, his intelligence talent is off the charts.

Name: Duan Shui (One of the Six Sword Slaves)

Age: 12 years old

Realm: Lower Fifth Rank

Talents: Intelligence (Ninth Rank), Martial Arts (Eighth Rank)

Abilities: Intelligence (Rank 6), Management (Rank 3)

Emotional level: 100 (Die-hard fan)

Among the Six Sword Slaves, Luan Shen and Wang Liang possess the talents of disguise and tracking, respectively, and their abilities have been cultivated to the fifth rank.

Besides Zhao Gao, Hong Zhu, and Liu Jiannu, Li Chang'an also had six eunuchs and four palace maids under his command.

All ten of them possess intelligence-gathering talent of the highest rank, which is also the key talent that Li Chang'an uses when selecting people.

After Zhao Gao's training, these ten people were already highly qualified intelligence agents.

He possesses the talent of a top-tier scholar, learns quickly, and is expected to acquire top-tier intelligence capabilities in the future.

Li Chang'an's all-seeing eyes are an extremely powerful talent.

Over the years, he had met some secret agents from the Censorate and the Inner Court, but they were not very good at intelligence gathering, or even had no intelligence at all.

This is Li Chang'an's advantage: he can guide everyone onto the right track, instead of wasting their lives in a direction they are not good at.

A few days later, a rare guest arrived at Shuning Palace.

Yan Xiaoyi, the commander of the Imperial Guards and a top-ranking ninth-grade martial artist, was dressed in armor and carried a strong bow.

Yan Xiaoyi bowed with a blank expression and said, "Your Highness Prince Yong, the Princess invites you!"

Emperor Qing was well aware that Yan Xiaoyi was promoted by the Eldest Princess and that he had a very close relationship with her.

However, Emperor Qing always held this expert from a humble background in high regard.

After all, the relationship between Emperor Qing and the Eldest Princess is somewhat ambiguous.

Li Chang'an opened his mouth, and Xiren immediately offered him a clean grape.

Then, Qingwen took a handkerchief and wiped Li Chang'an's mouth.

Yan Xiaoyi frowned slightly. This young Prince Yong was indeed as absurd as the rumors suggested.

At only ten years old, he is surrounded by beautiful women. What kind of future will he have when he grows up?

Li Chang'an said lazily, "Is it alright if I don't go?"

Yan Xiaoyi said, "The eldest princess said she wants to see His Highness one last time before he leaves the palace."

Li Chang'an had only seen this older sister a few times since he was born.

The main problem was Li Yunrui's pretentious manner, which young Li Chang'an couldn't appreciate.

Li Chang'an was allowed to leave the palace and establish his own residence, but Liu Shuyan could only remain in the palace.

Marrying the emperor meant being a member of the royal family for life, and even after the emperor's death, one could not leave the palace at will.

Because the Empress Dowager and the Empress had been punished by Emperor Qing, the woman with the most power in the harem was actually Li Yunrui.

For the sake of his mother Liu Shuyan's comfort, Li Chang'an couldn't afford to break ties with his "older sister" Li Yunrui.

"Since you miss me so much, sister, then I'll reluctantly agree. Lead the way!"

Guangxin Palace.

Li Yunrui held a small booklet in each hand, one filled with Li Chang'an's poems, and the other with a new interpretation of the Analects.

"Hehehe! You really are an interesting person, little brother. Your poems are so beautiful, and your interpretations of the classics are so unconventional."

"At seventy, one can follow one's heart's desires without transgressing the rules. So that's how it can be interpreted! It's really interesting!"

"I just love to do whatever I want! I just love to break the rules, hahaha!"

At this moment, Li Yunrui was lying on her side on the couch, her graceful figure faintly visible through the green gauze curtains.

Her deliberately exposed cleavage and shapely thighs were incredibly alluring.

Her waist swayed unintentionally, as supple as a willow branch in spring, light and graceful.

With each laugh, Li Yunrui's chest would shake violently, sparking all sorts of fantasies.

Li Chang'an hasn't arrived yet; what's here is the Crown Prince, who's in the throes of youthful confusion.

The crown prince was already parched and his gaze was unfocused.

This is his aunt. Although she is not his biological mother, he has always regarded her as his aunt since he was a child.

Therefore, every time the Crown Prince returned to the East Palace from Li Yunrui's place, he would always use the palace maids to vent his pent-up desires.

"Aunt, I pretended to comfort Grand Scholar Hu and then threw those words you said at Uncle Yong!"

"I never expected that Uncle Yong could actually come up with such a plausible explanation!"

The eldest princess was not of royal blood, and not many people knew this, which is why she was able to manage the imperial treasury on behalf of the royal family.

Having done many unconventional things, she had a very favorable impression of Li Chang'an's distorted interpretation of the classics.

She moved her lips slightly, leaned closer to the Crown Prince, and reached out to touch his face.

"Chengqian, do you think your aunt is beautiful?"

Li Chengqian, kneeling on the ground, felt like he couldn't breathe.

At that moment, Yan Xiaoyi's voice came from outside the door, "Your Highness, Prince Yong has arrived!"

Upon hearing Yan Xiaoyi's voice, the Crown Prince hurriedly stood up and took several steps back.

Then he stammered, "Aunt, Uncle Yong is here... I'll go back to the East Palace first."

Watching Li Chengqian leave in a panic, Li Yunrui revealed a disdainful expression.

"He has lustful thoughts but lacks the courage to act on them, and he also lacks self-control. He is far inferior to His Majesty."

"Actually, I resemble His Majesty's heroic and handsome appearance more, and I also have an added touch of elegance."

"Since His Majesty ignores me, I'll go find his brother, hehehe!"

Dressed in a magnificent blue brocade robe, Li Chang'an casually walked into Li Yunrui's bedchamber.

The erotic scene that Li Chengqian had just witnessed reappeared before Li Chang'an's eyes.

"Young man, come and sit down."

Li Chang'an knelt on the soft couch in front of the Crown Prince and smelled an alluring fragrance.

Seeing the alluring sight of her white, barely concealed skin, Li Chang'an finally understood why the Crown Prince had blushed as he ran out the door.

Her beautiful and alluring face exudes the charm of a mature woman; she's practically a fairy reincarnated.

Name: Li Yunrui

Age: 24 years old

Realm: None

Talents: Political Strategy (Rank 8), Politics (Rank 8), Palace Intrigue (Rank 8)

Abilities: Political maneuvering (eighth rank), politics (sixth rank), palace intrigue (ninth rank)

Emotion: 0

Li Yunrui's abilities have improved over the years, but she has not learned martial arts. However, the female officials protecting her outside the gate are all experts of the seventh or eighth rank.

"My sister really likes my new interpretation of the Analects... and she also really likes my poems!"

"My sister also likes my younger brother very much..."

Li Yunrui looked at Li Chang'an, even swallowed exaggeratedly, and then crawled closer to Li Chang'an by the bedside.

Li Chang'an cursed inwardly, "He's gone mad, he's really gone mad!"

This woman's favorability rating has been a full 0; there's not a shred of affection about her. She's clearly just lusting after her!

With a righteous and indignant expression, Li Chang'an shoved Li Yunrui on the forehead.

"Vile thing!"

"You think you like me? You're just after my body!"

Li Yunrui lay sprawled on the couch, her hair disheveled and her clothes in disarray.
