"Master, are you satisfied with this place?" Gu Yuanhe smiled and looked at Chu Li.
The two of them entered the courtyard and Chu Li sized up the small courtyard.
Because it was located in a remote area, it was especially quiet. The layout of the courtyard was exquisite with flowers and trees. There was a gazebo in the courtyard with a stone table and stone piers, all carved out of white jade.
Standing in the courtyard with a gentle breeze, there was an indescribable sense of comfort and tranquility.
This was obviously the work of a top-notch craftsman. It was a great enjoyment to be in it. Chu Li could not help but nod.
Although martial arts was not popular in this world, literary arts were very strong. He had never seen such an exquisite courtyard before. It was indeed the style of the royal family. Although it was only a small courtyard, it was far better than the Imperial Residence of King Jin.
Chu Li nodded slowly. "Very good, thank you."
Gu Yuanhe smiled. "As long as you are satisfied, I will take my leave. If you have any instructions, just let me know. There are people waiting outside. They will not disturb you if you do not call."
Chu Li pressed his palms together.
Gu Yuanhe left the courtyard.
Chu Li pushed the door open and entered. He took a few glances. Everything was exquisite. It was a great enjoyment. Stepping into the courtyard, he felt like he was one with the courtyard and the heavens and earth.
He returned to the courtyard and paced around with his hands behind his back. He thought about the daoyin technique he saw in Zhao Yancheng's mind.
In the basilica, Zhao Yancheng's mind was protected and could not be seen. However, in the Hall of Origin, the power became weak and could not protect Zhao Yancheng. Thus, he was able to see his mind.
The entire palace had this power. However, some basilica was strong while others were weak. The Hall of Origin was too weak.
He was curious about the source of this power. He could not figure it out. Was it because of a formation or a treasure?
Because of the unique spiritual energy in this world, it was difficult to form a formation or a treasure. No matter what treasure it was, once inner energy was involved, it would immediately be destroyed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Through what Zhao Yancheng saw in his mind, Zhao Yancheng was dubious about his supernatural power. Even though he had personally saved the three prisoners whose heads had been cut off, Zhao Yancheng still couldn't fully believe it. He was just a little more curious and probing.
Chu Li could not help but secretly sigh at Zhao Yancheng's stubbornness and paranoia. Such paranoia was obviously the result of being on the throne, and it was difficult to overcome.
Originally, he thought that he would be able to convince Zhao Yancheng with his divine ability, but now it seemed that he had underestimated Zhao Yancheng's stubbornness and paranoia. It was extremely difficult to completely change Zhao Yancheng's views, so he needed to go one step further.
However, once such a stubborn and suspicious person completely believed in him, he would be able to act more freely.
In his opinion, this Daoyin Technique was extraordinary. It was a pity that it couldn't use the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. Otherwise, it would have a miraculous effect. Without the support of Spiritual Qi, not only would the effect be much weaker, but there were also some flaws that couldn't be avoided.
He shook his head and stopped thinking about the Daoyin Technique. Everything would depend on the assassination of the Danning diplomatic corps in ten days.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
Early in the morning, Chu Li was practicing the Daoyin Technique in the courtyard, experiencing its wonders. His vigor surged as if it was cleansing his body. It was truly mystical. He could not help but feel that the people of this world were not to be underestimated.
"Knock, knock." The sound of knocking came from outside.
Chu Li said, "Chief Gu, please come in."
Gu Yuanhe bowed and came in. He closed fist saluted and smiled. "Great Master, His Majesty has ordered you to change your clothes and follow me to the palace."
Chu Li looked at him in surprise.
Gu Yuanhe smiled. "Rest assured, Great Master. When His Majesty attends the court, there will be a few scribes around him. There won't be any flaws."
Chu Li slowly nodded. "His Majesty wants me to see it with my own eyes."
"That's right." Gu Yuanhe smiled.
"… Forget it. Alright." Chu Li sighed helplessly.
Gu Yuanhe waved his hand. Two palace maids came in lightly, each holding a plate with a set of clothes on it.
Chu Li waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need them to serve him. He picked up the clothes and walked inside. Soon, he changed and came out.
His grey frock was replaced by a blue robe, and he wore a small hat on his head. His originally heroic face had also become mediocre and inconspicuous. His entire temperament was like the wind.
Gu Yuanhe looked at him, closed fist saluted and smiled. "Please follow me."
