C144 (2/2)

At the edge of the high platform, there was a large chair carved into an eagle. It was covered with a thick layer of treasured plush, and its back was facing them.

At this moment, the four of them were standing here. The man in the reddish-brown suit walked over and whispered something in his ear. Then he stood still.

Zou Si slowly stood up and turned around.

He was wearing a military cap and had a well-trimmed beard. He had a smile on his face that looked as stiff as it had just been made, but the ant said in a warm voice, ”Welcome back!”

Salin and Feng Yu immediately knelt down, cupping their fists and said: ”Greetings, Honorable Chief!”

Jun Lanyue stood at the side, saying nothing. Zuo Si raised his hand and said, ”The two of you, the Marquis has done a great service. This time, you have successfully completed the mission given to you by the Human Emperor. Next, go to the mountain and rest. In a few days, you two have more important things to do!”

The two men raised their heads and replied in unison, ”Yes, my lord!” After which, they left in a soft voice. The only ones left in the huge stone hall were Zuo Si and Jun Lin Yue. And the little guide.

”The Marquis of Xuanwu!?”

Jun Lanyue replied with a deadpan expression, ”Not anymore.” ”No matter what happens, the Marquis of Xuanwu is still you in all of the records in the main branch.” This matter wasn't something that the Black Tortoise manor could decide on its own. All the dukes in the Nine Prefectures can only be decided after the Human Emperor personally takes a look. Do you understand this? ”

”What?” I've never heard anyone say that! ” Jun Lanyue was somewhat astonished.

”There are many things you haven't heard of!” According to what he had said, only the officials of the Black Tortoise Manor and the Azure Province had admitted that he had given up his position. However, the Great Yang and the Human Emperor had not actually admitted to it, and did not even know about this.

In that case, Jun Linyue would be able to enter and exit the headquarters as the Marquis of Xuanwu. However, this was useless because he had come alone. Even if there was a Human Emperor behind him, he was still far away. If someone truly wanted to harm him, then beheading him first was still worth it.

However, Zuo Si's plan wasn't limited to just Jun Lin Yue.

At this time, Zuo Si said, ”This old man had to work hard in front of the Great Central Region's Human Emperor for tens of years before I was able to obtain such an inspection department's position. Furthermore, I am directly responsible to the Human Emperor. Of course, if you are willing to do one thing for me, then I will help you enter the Great Central Region's Human Emperor's side. ”

At first, Jun Lin Yue was pleasantly surprised, but after a moment of thought, he frowned and asked: ”How did you know I was going to the Great Yang?”

”Otherwise, why would you still dare come to the Monitoring Division after losing your position?” Zuo Si answered without hesitation.

Jun Lanyue disdainfully said, ”Hehe, I left the Black Tortoise Mansion because I wanted to leave. This has nothing to do with it.” But did it really matter? He reminded himself of this in his heart.
