The Princess And The Lord

At the same time Zhao Li Xin was having a long discussion in his study room with the four Palace Kings and the mong brothers were also present, the atmosphere in the room was tense and stiff as everyone's serious expressions seemed to be lost in their own thoughts. and after a few minutes, Jin Hao finally broke the silence.

"Are you sure about this?" Jin Hao wrinkled his forehead.

"No" Zhao Li Xin replied curtly with an expressionless face but one could see the hurdled flashing in his dark eyes.

"This is a very risky plan, one mistake and the result will be…. unimaginable" Bei Li Yan holds his breath.

Zhao Li Xin leisurely crossed his legs even though he looked calm from the outside but seeing how tight he clasped his hands over his stomach, everyone knew how tense Zhao Li Xin actually was.

"Lory doesn't want to wait any longer and she doesn't think they'll let her wait any longer either, she see the opportunity so she thought it better attack first while she has the chance" Zhao Li Xin sighed heavily.

"But this..." Bei Li Yan cannot curbed his anxiety.

"She had made a decision" Zhao Li Xin grit his teeth "Whether she did everything herself or I stayed by her side to make sure she didn't hurt herself, my choice, of course, fell on the latter"

"Although I hate to admit it, but Madam is right," Jiang Jin Wei said, "Right now Xiao Bo Zhi is gathering many influential family heads who are displeased with Empress Ming's rule, he is raising a lot of funds to buy many hybrid beasts as well pills and elixir to increase their strength, they also bought many sects to help him." Jiang Jin Wei clenched his white knuckles in boiling anger.

everyone knew that the Hei Shen sect supported Empress Ming so fighting against Empress Ming was like slapping Hei Shen in the face, did they forget the power of the Hei Shen sect to the point they dared to ignore the Hei Shen sect existence?

"Looks like we've been silent for too long they forgot our power?" Wu San Bo sneered.

"It seems so..." Zhao Li Xin chimed in nonchalantly.

Jin Hao sighed then crossed his arms in front of his chest, "So, what is your plan, my Lord?"

"It's time to remind them how powerful our sect is." Zhao Li Xin lean his upper body forward then he brought his hands together as he makes steeple with his long fingers, "Right now we have the upper hand because the enemy thinks they are holding onto our weakness, we can use their temporary happiness for our own good" Zhao Li Xin said in low voice.

Jin Hao smile cunningly "So we pretend to be pigs to swallow the tiger….I like it "

" I like the idea. already" Bei Li Yan smirked.

"First of all" Zhao Li Xin turned towards Wu San Bo "How is the device I told you to prepare?"

Wu San Bo smiled confidently, "It's done, and ready, my Lord"

"Find a chance to meet that Guan woman, I hope she is brave enough to do the deed" Zhao Li Xin

"Don't worry my Lord, as long as we save her brother, she ready to do anything, she's stronger than she looks" said Wu San Bo confidently.

"Staying sane while living with a Psycho like Wei Zu Tian isn't easy, he wouldn't have come this far if he had a weak heart" Zhao Li Xin was quite amazed by Guan Men Niang's mental strength, luckily, it was worth working with him.

Then Zhao Li Xin turned her gaze to Mong Ki, "Take our best flying beast, find Yuan Shao and tell him that we have changed his plans, coordinated everything with him, but first tell the empress 'Brat' and Li Mo Zhen, about our plan!"

"Understood, my Lord" Mong Ki cupped his fists and nodded firmly.

After that Zhao Li Xin turned to Jin Hao, "Ask your sister if there is anyone we can trust in Misty Lake, someone who has suspicions about your brother's behavior." Zhao Li Xin raised his eyebrows. Zhao Li Xin couldn't believe that no one in the Misty Lake didn't feel strange about the things happening around them, it wouldn't be a bad thing to take advantage of them in a meantime.

Jin Hao held his chin thoughtfully then said "I'll ask Jin Hua about this" Jin Hao then sighed heavily "I don't like them but my enemy's enemy is my friend right" his eyes glint mischievously.

"For now..." Zhao Li Xin answer perfunctorily.

"Jin Wei what about our soldiers?" Zhao Li Xin now turned his attention to Jiang Jin Wei.

"Our three hundred elite soldiers have blended with the citizens they will prepare when needed" Jiang Jin Wei replied firmly.

"And the shadow guards?" Zhao Li Xin glanced at Mong Yi.

"They are ready in their positions, my Lord" Mong Yi confirmed.

Bei Li Yan turned his gaze to his brothers then Zhao Li Xin, and he pouted, "Milord, what about me, what should I do?" Bei Li Yan pouted his red lips, why is he the only one left behind? He also wants to have fun!

One corner of Zhao Li Xin's lips curved upwards, "For you, you do what you do best, make my wedding as grand as possible!"

Bei Li Yan's eyes lit up like fireworks, "Can I use Hei Shen's treasury?" he playfully waggle his brows.

Zhao Li Xin's face remained indifferent then he waved his hand nonchalantly and said with a lazy tone "Do whatever you want..."

"Healthy!" Bei Li Yan grinned excitedly, Bei Li Yan then stretched out his hand towards Wu San Bo "Give me the money!" A portion of Hei Shen's treasury was under Wu San Bo's supervision so Bei Li Yan naturally asked for funds from Wu San Bo.

Wu San Bo rolled his eyes "Yes-yes" he handed the three special rings in Bei Li Yan's hand.

Since the treasury space in the underground palace was full, and they barely had room to store any more accumulated treasures so Wu San Bo made a simple spatial ring to store some treasures, although Wu San Bo's level of armament was not comparable to Zhao Li Xin, However, Wu San Bo was still an armament master that was unrivaled on the continent so he is able at least create a simple spatial ring with small space, that itself is an achievement that only few could have.

"Just three rings, I thought Milord fortuned a lot more than this?" Bei Li Yan see the rings with confused looks.

"Of course there are more! all those rings were stored within another spatial ring, do you know how crazy that is?!" Wu San Bo clenched his fists in front of his chest in frustration, was it because the space within the spatial ring he had created was too small so it got full in a short amount of time?

"Milord, can you spend your mountain of gold a little bit more?!" Wu san Bo gives Zhao Li Xin a desperate look.

It's tiresome to make a spatial ring all the time, just one spatial ring will need at least two months to be created and he had created seven of them, one can't imagine how exhausted Wu san Bo is.

Zhao Li Xin rests his head lazily on his fist "Tell my wife to spend it, I don't need it..."

Half of Hei Shen's wealth was usually used to relieve Zhao Li Xin's old illness or buy rare materials to conduct experiments to cure Zhao Li Xin but after Zhao Li Xin was healed by Lory he didn't know what else he would use the money for.

"But, Madam only used the money to buy dessert…" Wu San Bo cried, he felt shocked whenever he received a report on how much the young madam spent her money, the report would record that madam bought Tanghulu, Xiao Long Bao, candy, snowflake cake, and so on, that's all just dessert and not even the expensive one!

"Just share it between the six of you then…" Zhao Li Xin gives a casual reply, he still has treasures inside his own ring as well.

The six of them mean the mong brothers were included, well that's not strange since they had served Zhao Li Xin the longest but both Mong Ki and Mong Yi quickly refused "Milord, there's no need we already have a lot of money that we can't spend even if we live seven lifetimes, it's rather to be kept for Madam dowry"

"Yes, that's true, madam is a princess after all so the dowry cannot be shabby right?" Bei Li Yan agrees.

"Madam is a true warrior, she had been sacrificed all her life for her kingdom, we should at least show this much sincerity" Jiang Jin Wei also chimed in, once he heard Lory's past life he was moved and his admiration for Lory just take to a whole another level.

"I agree" Jin Hao also doesn't need money, he is a talented alchemist and physician, only his one pill can make a fortune, so why does he need to take his Lord's money beside his palace treasury is also full.

"Okay, let's give the spatial ring that holds the treasure to the young madam" Wu San Bo clapped his hands as he conclude.

Bei Li Yan suddenly chuckled, "So, the treasure stored in the ring will be kept in another ring and the ring will be given to the Madam to be kept in her ring, right?"

Zhao Li Xin's mouth twitches slightly, why does it sound troublesome. But it's not a bad idea even though Lory doesn't need the money right now but that might change in the future, don't they plan to travel together when everything is over, the money might come in handy.

Jin Hao rubbed the nape of his neck and sighed, "Fine, the treasure matter is over, but what about Madam safety? Are we really letting her take risks just like that?" he wouldn't believe Zhao Li Xin would let Lory risk her life for whatever reason.

"Of course not, she's my wife, No matter what happens I will protect her!" Zhao Li Xin's said with an unwavering voice.
