PS: The eighteenth Alliance Leader has been born, Ronin Adorable!
"There will be a chance! … This Chu Li will fall for it? "Sun Yide kept twisting his neck." I don't think it will work! "
"Then we'll force him to fall for it!" Jianghe said.
Sun Yide slammed the table. "Yes, we have to force him. I don't believe he won't listen to us!"
Jianghe glared at him and scoffed. "Xiao Sun, don't be stupid. You can't use force!"
"No, no." Sun Yide tilted his head and waved his hand. "You have to use force when dealing with people like this. Let me tell you, Elder Zhao, soft tactics won't work! Definitely not! "
"How are you going to use force?" Jianghe scoffed. "Are you going to fight him? Can you beat him? "
"I can't beat him, but I don't have to, right?" Sun Yide said lazily.
Jianghe understood what he was thinking.
As long as they fought, the Secret Guardians would have an excuse to arrest them. If Sun Yide could not beat him, what about a group of Secret Guardians? Who would have the guts to resist if the Secret Guardians were to arrest them? Resisting would mean going against the Emperor!
Jianghe said, "He's a smart guy. He might not make a move."
"What if I fight Second Lady Xiao?"
"Don't mess around!" Jianghe quickly said, "You can't touch Second Lady Xiao!"
"I won't touch her, but it should be fine to scare her, right?" Sun Yide smiled strangely. "What do you think he will do if I attack Second Lady Xiao?"
"He will definitely take care of you!" Jianghe scoffed.
Sun Yide chuckled. "That's it. Haha, no matter how smart he is, he will still have to do what he says!"
"You …" Jianghe shook his head. "Don't be smart! … Alright, we can give it a try. If he attacks, don't fight back. Just pretend to be injured! "
"Elder Zhao, don't you want to know more about this Chief?" Sun Yide smiled strangely. "Don't you want to see how capable he is? How many Secret Guardians would he need to take care of him?"
"If he kills us, we will be the ones in trouble!" Jianghe said.
Sun Yide snorted, his smile widening. "I don't think he has the guts to do anything to us!"
"… Alright, we'll do as you say." Zhao Jianghe waved his hand and said, "But let's make this clear first. If you don't take the easy way out, we'll give you the hard way!"
"Of course!" Sun Yide laughed.
Zhao Jianghe looked at him worriedly.
"Sirs, my Princess invites you!" Song Sansi entered the hall, cupped his fists and said.
He sized up Sun Yide and Zhao Jianghe. This was the first time that a secret guardian from the Imperial House had come knocking on his door. This was not a good thing!
"Hehe, your Princess finally has time to talk to us!" Sun Yide laughed.
"Two Daren," Song Sansi hurriedly said, "Princess Consort's body is not well and her mind is tired. Two Daren have come at a bad time. Princess Consort is currently resting. I hope that the two Daren will not take offense!"
"We wouldn't dare, we wouldn't dare. How could we dare to blame the Princess?" Sun Yide quickly waved his hand and pretended to be flattered. "We are already very grateful that the Princess did not think that we were bothering you. We are very grateful!"
Looking at his exaggerated behavior, Song Sansi smiled. However, he was secretly groaning in his heart. This person obviously did not come with good intentions!
The three of them arrived at Tianshu Courtyard.
In Tianshu Courtyard, Siao Shi, Yang Xu, Xue Ling, Song Liuying, Xue Ningyu, the two concubines and their maids, Leng Qiu and Leng Qing.
Other than that, there were also Princess Lu, Lu Yurong, Leng Ying, and their maids.
There were more than ten people in total. The courtyard was filled with a delicate fragrance.
They sat upright and looked at the two who came in.
Siao Shi wore a white veil to cover her beautiful face. Lu Yurong also wore a white veil to cover her face.
The two most beautiful faces were covered by the white veil, but they still looked radiant in the courtyard.
Leng Qiu and Leng Qing were extremely curious. They had heard of the secret guardians from the Imperial House but they had never met them. They did not have the chance to meet them in the Imperial Residence.
"Greetings, my four concubines." Sun Yide and Zhao Jianghe closed fist saluted. Their expressions were natural and dignified.
Although Sun Yide and Zhao Jianghe saw Princess Lu and the others, they did not mind. If they were in the Imperial Residence of King Jing, they would have some scruples. After all, King Jing had the highest chance of ascending the throne. He might very well be the future Emperor.
Now that they were in the Imperial Residence of King An, Princess Lu and the others were just guests. As long as they did not disrespect them, it was fine.
Moreover, she was not the Empress yet. There was no need to worry too much.
Siao Shi said lightly, "What brings the two of you here?"
Zhao Jianghe said, "May I know where Head Chief Chu is?"
"Chu Li?" Siao Shi said, "He went into isolated cultivation."
"Isolated cultivation?" Zhao Jianghe frowned.
He did not expect this answer.
Sun Yide laughed and said, "Princess Siao, isn't this too much of a coincidence? The moment we arrived, Head Chief Chu went into isolated cultivation? "
Siao Shi's limpid eyes scanned his face. She said lightly, "What you're saying is that he knew you were coming. So he went into isolated cultivation to avoid you, right?"
"Such a coincidence. We can't help but think so." Sun Yide laughed and said as he looked at Siao Shi impudently.
Siao Shi covered her beautiful face. He hated the House of High Duke. Even so, he still felt that Siao Shi's bright eyes were like a deep pool. It sucked his soul in. He could not help but feel intoxicated.
He was on guard. He was thinking about his brother's mysterious death.
Siao Shi nodded lightly, "If that's the case, the Secret Guardians of the Imperial House are not exactly secretive. Someone knew about it and informed Chu Li so that he could hide in advance! … But, the Secret Guardians of the Imperial House sure are impressive! "
"Princess Siao, you're exaggerating!" Zhao Jianghe said in a deep voice, "We are under orders from the Emperor to ask Head Chief Chu to help us search for the traitors from the Holy Church of Light!"
"Orders?" Siao Shi glanced at him lazily, "Orders from the Emperor himself?"
"This …" Zhao Jianghe hesitated.
This was not an order from the Emperor. It was an order from the Deputy Commander.
Siao Shi said, "If there's an Imperial Edict, Chu Li would have to come out even if he went into isolated cultivation. If it's not an Imperial Edict from the Emperor, then it's fine. He's a rank one cultivator. Not everyone can order him around. Am I right?"
Her clear eyes glanced at the two of them. She said lightly, "If there's nothing else, please leave. I'm tired!"
Zhao Jianghe said in a deep voice, "Princess Siao, the disciples of the Holy Church of Light have caused a lot of trouble. All the princes are threatened by them. Head Chief Chu can't just leave them to die, can he?"
"Oh?" Siao Shi was surprised, "I didn't know that investigating the Holy Church of Light was his responsibility! … He's just the Head Chief of the Imperial House, right? When did he become a Secret Guardian of the Imperial House? Or someone from the Ministry of War? "
Zhao Jianghe was stunned.
Sun Yide was getting impatient.
This Siao Shi had a sharp tongue. The two of them might not be able to win against her with words. They could only use force.
His face darkened. He said stiffly, "Princess Siao, investigating the Holy Church of Light is our responsibility. We have the right to mobilize people to assist in the investigation!"
"You guys have a lot of power. You can mobilize people if you want. I'm not feeling well. After entering the Imperial House, I haven't been able to go to the palace to see the Empress. Empress Dowager, I'll go to the palace in two days. I'd like to consult the Empress and Empress Dowager. "
