”Haha …”

The messenger suddenly smiled and looked at Helian Manqiu with a different look in his eyes. Indeed, this young uncle of his had an exquisite crystal heart. He didn't need to say anything else to understand his meaning.

Looking at Helian Man's beautiful face, which was like a blooming peach blossom in the gentle spring wind, that hint of a heartless smile, pure yet faintly cold and arrogant, was elegant and graceful. Even someone as knowledgeable as him couldn't help but be tempted by the sight of Helian Manqiu's beautiful face and smile.

However, there was a trace of cold arrogance within her bright eyes. The heroic and prideful air that was emitted from between her brows made him feel inferior, and he didn't dare make any other movements.

”Young uncle is indeed a wise and astute person.” Young uncle is indeed a wise and astute person. Young uncle-master is a hero, wise and wise man. In the future, you will definitely be a pillar of the future of the Great Hengkong Empire. ”

When he looked at Helian Manqiu's eyes, he had a feeling. It was as if this young uncle had long guessed his intentions, which was why he suggested going to Jingzhou after he said those words.

”The Emperor has shown great kindness. Now, Qing Yu can only do his best to manage the land of Jing Bei as soon as possible and report this kindness to the Emperor.” However, right now, I don't have many soldiers under my command, and there are very few people who can use it. I wonder if this uncle can recruit more knowledgeable people after I arrive at Jing Bei? ”

”Of course. The north of the Jing is owned by the young uncles, and the taxes are also owned by the young uncles. If Uncle needs anything, he can get it from Jing Bei. As for officials below the fifth-grade, this uncle can make recommendations to the imperial government. ”Young uncle-in-law's reputation is booming right now. Even if there's a higher position, if young uncle-in-law were to recommend it, His Majesty would most likely bestow a great graciousness on him.”

Helian Manqiu said with a smile, ”Does sire think that I can use the talents and treasures of the Northern Thorn Land as I wish?”

She looked at him meaningfully. With a smile that was not a smile, her aged face couldn't help but blush. He had always been playing the fool. Now that Helian Manqiu had said this, it would be exceptionally difficult for him to play the fool.

”Cough, cough …”

Helpless, the messenger coughed a few times as the two of them continued their investigation.

Helian Manqiu was not courteous at all. In her words, she had never known what politeness was. Why should she be courteous to the people sent by the old man?

After a round of haggling, the lion's mouth was wide open. In fact, even the lord messenger in front of her was unable to make the decision. Thus, there was no harm in asking for a few more conditions. This messenger would naturally tell her meaning, all to the capital, and report back to the old man.

”Your Majesty values young uncle so much, so this young uncle must not disappoint His Majesty's favor. The empress and the crown prince also hold young uncle in high regard.” With the cultivation of the imperial government, his future prospects would definitely be as rich as brocade, limitless. ”It's nothing much to be called Jing Bei. I'm now fifteen years old, and I'm called Uncle Bei [1] …”

Once again, in front of Helian Manqiu's eyes, the messenger drew a beautiful yet illusory blueprint for her.

Helian Manqiu's eyes were cold and emotionless. Her delicate face was not the least bit affected as she indifferently listened. She did not ask anything, nor did she contradict the messenger's words.

With this attitude in the official's eyes, the official could not help but sigh and say, ”Young uncle, I have long heard of young uncle's great fame and outstanding talents. Only now do I know that it is indeed true. For example, this official has been immersed in the field for many years, and has yet to achieve the ability to act unabashedly, but did not expect young uncle-uncle to achieve such a feat at such a young age.

At this moment, this Lord Messenger completely admired Helian Manqiu's calmness and calmness, and was not blinded by her authority.

”Uncle, I want to say something from the bottom of my heart. No one can imagine Uncle's future!”

”Milord, you've flattered me. Right now, I am only fifteen years old, so what do I know? I would like to seek your guidance.”

The two of them talked for a long time, and at the same time as they were finalizing certain matters, the messenger wanted to suggest to Helian Manqiu that with Miss Helian in his hands, this young uncle of his might as well be devoted to the imperial court and contribute to it.

”In that case, even if I leave tomorrow morning, I will have to trouble you to take care of me.” ”When we can depart and visit His Majesty in the capital, I'll be waiting for His Majesty's news at any time.”

With a single sentence, he dispelled the thought of giving an explanation to Helian Manqiu and could only smile awkwardly. Understanding this uncle, not only had he already seen through the cause of Miss Helian's illness, but he had also seen through his thoughts and understood the words he wanted to say.

”I only have this one sister, my father's last wish. I only hope that the military region will be safe and that my sister will be safe.”

When the envoy heard Helian Manqiu's words, he understood Helian Manqiu's meaning. He had Miss Helian as a hostage, and hearing her words, he could tell from her uncle's tone that he was secretly inclined towards the imperial government.

”Please be at ease young uncle, everything here is arranged by me. Even if the uncle has something to delay, I will take Miss Helian and move first. The uncle will catch up soon enough.” Miss Helian's body is unsettled. You can just slowly walk along the way. ”

”I will not disappoint your grace, my lord.”

Helian Manqiu understood his meaning. If she could not achieve some success in Jingzhou, she would not be able to explain herself to the old man in the capital. She would also make the imperial government think that she was not worth the effort in cultivating and investing in.
