Did the news spread so fast?... Lin Bai was a little surprised. The hunting in the Nantian Hunting Garden ended yesterday. His engagement with Miss Chen Xian became known to everyone so quickly?
However, when Lin Bai thought about it carefully, he found that Chao Yushi and Zhang Linghu were both former members of Prince Hong's palace, and Miss Shen Xian was their young mistress.
They paid close attention to Miss Shen Xian's every move, and learned that Emperor Chu of Nantian Hunting Garden pardoned Miss Shen Xian, and allowed him to lead the title of princess of Prince Hong's Mansion, and at the same time granted him a marriage to Lin Bai... They knew these things, and they also
Within reason.
Lin Bai looked depressed and smiled to himself... So far, he still doesn't know what Emperor Chu meant?
Did he want to sincerely grant the marriage? Or did he just not want Lin Bai to fall into the palace of the third prince and Prince Liang, so he negotiated a delaying strategy with Miss Shen Xian.
"It is best to delay the attack. In this way, after this matter is over, Emperor Chu will naturally terminate the engagement..."
"But if Emperor Chu really wants to grant the marriage, it will be troublesome. I have to find a way to force Emperor Chu to terminate the engagement..."
Lin Bai sighed, shook his head repeatedly, and was about to continue walking forward.
Unexpectedly.
When Zhang Linghu saw Lin Bai's actions, he immediately opened his eyes angrily, "You didn't hear what I said, right?"
"You still dare to go to Mingyuefang and fool around?"
Lin Bai raised his sword eyebrows and looked angry. He raised his head and glared at Zhang Linghu, "Who do you think you are? Are you worthy of teaching me a lesson?"
"Where do I want to go? Do I still need you to take care of it?"
"Even if Miss Chen Xian and I really get married, I will still be your master. Even if you have the Daluo Daoguo realm, you are just a dog!"
"You dare to take care of me?"
A chilling aura spread out from Lin Bai and Zhang Linghu.
Chao Yushi suddenly felt that something was wrong and hurriedly held down Zhang Linghu to tell him not to act impulsively.
Lin Bai's cultivation level is indeed not as good as Zhang Linghu's, but Lin Bai's current status in the Chu Kingdom far surpasses Zhang Linghu's.
The last time Zhang Linghu took action to teach Lin Bai a lesson, Pan Qing immediately started chasing Zhang Linghu after arriving in the imperial capital. In the end, if Miss Shen Xian had not appeared to intercede, Zhang Linghu might have died in Pan Qing's hands.
And now, Lin Bai is not only the holy son of Tianshui Sect, but also the "One-word Marquis" of Chu State, backed by five families and seven sects. His status is second only to the princes and the royal family.
Moreover, he was also a popular figure in the eyes of His Royal Highness King Chen and Emperor Chu, who both valued him extremely.
If Zhang Linghu still dares to act recklessly at this moment, he will not only attract the hatred of the Tianshui Sect, but also the hatred of the Chu royal family.
Lin Bai didn't have a good impression of Zhang Linghu, a warrior in the Daluo Daoguo realm.
Even though Miss Shen Xian once came forward to mediate the grievances between Lin Bai and him, neither of them seemed to let go.
After Chao Yushi held down Zhang Linghu, he smiled and said to Lin Bai: "Master Langhou, I see that you are worried, you don't look like you are going to Mingyuefang to have fun."
"Mr. Lang arrived in the imperial capital not long ago. He doesn't have many connections here. If you encounter any difficulties, I can help you."
"We have all grown up in the imperial capital since we were young, and we have many connections and resources. If Lord Lang is willing to inform you, I will be able to come forward to help you."
"After all... we will all be a family in the future."
Although Lin Bai didn't pay much attention to what Chao Yushi said, but after taking a few steps forward, a light suddenly flashed in his mind, and he seemed to have thought of something.
Yes, he does not have deep connections in the imperial capital. It is not easy to investigate the third prince. Even if he seeks help from the Dark World, he can still get the information he wants.
But Chao Yushi and Zhang Linghu were not only former members of Prince Hong, but they had also been dormant in the imperial capital for a long time. They knew the imperial capital very well.
If there was such a "local snake" willing to help, it might save Lin Bai a lot of trouble.
At this thought, Lin Bai stopped, raised his head, and glanced at Chao Yushi.
Chao Yushi and Lin Bai's eyes met, and he immediately understood the meaning in Lin Bai's eyes, and said immediately: "Come, let's serve tea in the elegant room."
After half a ring.
In the private room of Hongtian Restaurant, Lin Bai, Chao Yushi, and Zhang Linghu sat opposite each other.
Chao Yushi and Zhang Linghu sat side by side. Chao Yushi had a kind smile on his face, while Zhang Linghu had an unkind expression and stared at Lin Bai fiercely.
Lin Bai was sitting opposite them. There was a small table in the middle. On the table, three cups of fragrant tea were swaying with fragrant smoke.
"Since we have to talk about things, it's inconvenient to drink." Chao Yushi put the tea cup in front of Lin Bai with both hands, and said with a smile: "This is the best enlightenment tea in the imperial capital. Lord Lang, try it..."
Lin Bai took a small sip and then put down the tea cup. He neither appreciated the Wu Dao Tea nor expressed his intention.
The three of them were just in silence with each other.
"Humph." Zhang Linghu snorted coldly, picked up the tea cup, drank the hot tea in one gulp, and then slammed the tea cup on the table to express his dissatisfaction and anger.
Lin Bai ignored him and knew that Zhang Linghu had no brains and mostly acted recklessly without thinking about the consequences.
Lin Bai was silent, Chao Yushi was thinking thoughtfully, his eyes were rolling, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, showing an expression as if everything was under control.
"Is Lord Lang worried about the third prince?"
Seeing that Lin Bai didn't speak for a long time, Chao Yushi took the initiative to speak out, "The Lord Wolf wanted to deal with the third prince, but now the third prince is dormant and has restrained his wings, leaving Lord Lang unable to find a way to break the situation."
"Just now I reminded Lord Lang that... we have a wide network of contacts in the imperial capital and can help, so Lord Lang is stopping."
"But when we are in front of us, Lord Lang still doesn't believe us..."
Chao Yushi's voice was gentle and polite, like a handsome young man singing poetry.
Zhang Linghu glared and shouted: "We are helping him with good intentions, why doesn't he believe us?"
Chao Yushi ignored Zhang Linghu, a reckless man, and explained: "Because the person Langhou wants to deal with is the third prince, and this is related to the Chu royal family. If there is a slight mistake, it is very likely that everything will be lost, or even even
Tianshui Sect will be destroyed because of this."
"Therefore, every step Lord Lang takes in the imperial capital is very careful and cautious."
"I've already seen this when Zhang Linghu attacked Lord Langhou..."
This man is really a dog-headed strategist... Lin Bai cursed, but still did not speak, keeping his face calm and listening to Chao Yushi's words.
Zhang Linghu was stunned for a moment and asked: "What do you mean by being attacked by me...what did you see?"
Chao Yushi explained: "If it were a normal time, with the character of the Wolf Marquis who is determined to retaliate, he would definitely not turn the sneak attack into a big deal, right?"
"However, after Mr. Lang Hou was sneak attacked by Zhang Linghu, he returned to the palace, but he kept urging Pan Qing, the ancestor of the Tianshui Sect, to stop and seemed not to pursue the case."
"Because Lord Lang is worried...if this matter gets serious, it will inevitably cause trouble in the city, which is not conducive to the current situation of His Highness Prince Chen."
"Am I right? Mr. Wolf Marquis."
Chao Yushi looked at Lin Bai with a smile, stretched out his hand to take out the teapot, and filled Lin Bai with tea.
"You are so thoughtful..." Lin Bai glanced at Zhang Linghu, then withdrew his eyes and asked Chao Yushi: "Then guess...what am I worried about?"
