Chapter 193: Cauldron (1/2)
The lights of the s as if it were day
Chu Li was quietly sitting at the side of the stone table, flipping and reading a book Another stack of books laid on top of the stone table
The guest house of Prince An's Imperial Residence was quite different from the ones in Huay Public House
The yard was sophisticated and coly rich and the largest difference was in the study room It housed thousands of collections of books
Chu Li used all of his free ti the books in the Yi Public House's Tower of Wisdouest house were not in the Tower of Wisdom
He was like someone as extre of water His heart itched so much that he was unable to hold on to it
Around this tiantly walked towards hirance She held onto her sleeve as she bowed, ”Would you like to have your dinner now, Master?”
”Yes, thank you for the effort,” Chu Li smiled as he nodded
The maid smiled, ”What does Master want to eat? …This is the menu If the menu is not up to your tastes, we can inform our chef”
She said as she handed Chu Li a rather small booklet filled with names of dishes written on top of it
Chu Li simply ticked a few names and smiled, ”Please have Chief Zhu come here for a bit”
”Understood,” the maid had a beautiful smile
She looked like a flohen she s beauty
Chu Li slady yearned not for love? The maid must have fell for him
Prince Anit out He hid his true nature deep inside and showed his kind-hearted self on the outside His staff were treated with lenience and peace The atmosphere of the residence was strict, but active Chu Li had to admit that he truly had the looks of someone as ambitious and ruthless
Maids of Prince An's Is to do, usually Guests dared not treat them impolitely either, which hy they werefor life The erous landscapes and people of the outside
Chief Zhu reached relatively quickly His eht
He walked into the s off a standoffish attitude, ”Scribe Chu Li, you were looking for aging in conversation
Chief Zhu was jealous of Chu Li He looked incredibly overconfident and his expression was undisciplined, ”I haveto say”
Chu Li smiled, ”Chief Zhu, we're not outsiders to each other any to follow Lady Siao shi+ to Prince An's Imperial Residence not too far into the future We should at least try to get closer to each other”
”You're going to follow?” the expression on Chief Zhu's face changed ever so slightly
Chu Li nodded, ”Our Public House obviously wouldn't let Lady Siao shi+ come here alone As the private Scribe of Lady Siao shi+, it's natural that I follow I do hope that Chief Zhu will take care of me!”
Chief Zhu forced a smile as he fist saluted, ”How is that possible? I should be the one asking for your guidance”
Ranking worked the sahout the Great Ji Dynasty The Imperial Court, the Public House, and the Imperial Residence all followed the same standards Rank two Scribes from the Public House were still rank two even after they joined an Imperial Residence Chief Zhu was merely rank four, so he needed to be polite to Chu Li
Chu Li waved off his hand and s to be the E to be the Scribe of the Iard me as an outsider
”That's certainly true We're all one, all one,” Chief Zhu forced a smile out as he nodded with a ht, I had a small request”
Chief Zhu concentrated his attention and smiled, ”Do say it”
”I wish to stay in the residence for a few more days,” Chu Li pointed at the study roo and it's quite torturing for me to not have a look at all the books here I'd wish to leave after reading all these books”
”About that…,” Chief Zhu hesitated and s aside your main mission, are you?”
Chu Li waved off his hand, ”There are only a few books here that aren't in the Tower of Wisdom of the Public House It won't take more than a few days In fact, my mission here is already almost done It'll be the same as I return to the Public House”
”Well, it should be fine if that's the case Make yourself co as it doesn't coned to, the residence wouldn'tup a few extra meals”
Chu Li smiled, ”I shall thank Chief Zhu for now, then”
”It's notelse you need, I'll be going off now I still have s to do elsewhere”
