Chapter 83 83: Useless Threat
After confirming that Liu Erlong had not followed, Shuitian still felt a little uneasy.
No matter what Qian Renxue thought, he was unwilling to let Liu Erlong get involved, and the teachers at Lanba Academy could not get involved in the empire's disputes.
No matter who wins or loses between Wuhun Palace and Tiandou Empire, it has nothing to do with him. No matter how the continent changes, he just wants to protect his relatives and friends.
As the supervisor, Pisar was very talkative, and he was carefully testing his views and attitude towards the situation on the mainland along the way.
Shuitian is also pretending to be haha and not being a pervert. He is just a little Contra and can't care about those complicated things.
It can be concluded that this Pisar is Qian Renxue's person, and the housekeeper of his mansion must also be one of his people.
Soon he followed the hypocritical butler to the Prince's Mansion.
From a distance, I saw Xue Qinghe greeting me at the door. He was dressed neatly and simply in plain clothes, with a jade belt tied around his waist, and he had a graceful demeanor.
The only drawback was that the face that belonged to the real Xue Qinghe was not handsome, but rather ordinary.
"Brother Shuitian is here. I've been waiting for you for a long time. Brother and this sister, please come in soon~" She kept her posture very low, showing that the polite corporal was also the one making arrangements for her father.
She took good care of her. Regardless of Zhu Zhuqing's identity, she first called her sister, which gave Shuitian enough face.
Shuitian Ke raised his hands politely and said: "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince. This is my student Zhu Zhuqing. Zhuqing, I have not met His Highness the Crown Prince yet."
You still need to be polite, and everything on the scene is for others to see.
Zhu Zhuqing bowed politely and said: "See His Highness the Crown Prince."
She is very sensible. As a student of Shuitian, she just bows, otherwise she will lose the face of her teacher.
When Shuitian said her name, Qian Renxue narrowed her eyes and her heart skipped a beat.
Is it possible that this guy wants to support the Star Luo Empire?
I didn’t take anyone with me when I left Lanba Academy, I only took with me the fiancee of the prince of the Star Luo Empire~
Is it intentional or is it really the teacher's cultivation of the students?
Qian Renxue quickly put away her unnecessary expression, showed her professional smile and said, "I can call you Zhuqing like this. You are indeed a young genius. Come on, let's go in and talk."
Shuitian then took Zhu Zhuqing into the Prince's Mansion.
The furnishings inside are not as simple as those worn by Xue Qinghe. After all, the prince of the empire, even if she wanted to make the decoration simple, Xue Ye would not agree.
Regarding the reputation of the empire, the Tiandou Empire has always been more willing to spend money on big events than the Star Luo Empire.
Who allowed them to rely on the richest Qibao Glazed Sect on the mainland?
The housekeeper went about what he should do, and Qian Renxue led them all the way to his living room.
After greeting them to sit down, he inevitably said a few more polite words.
He asked casually: "I wonder how your college is doing now? If you need help from me, just ask, and don't be polite to Qinghe."
Hearing this, Shuitian realized that she was testing, and replied in a serious manner: "To be honest, the matter of Lanba Academy has nothing to do with me."
"Brother, don't say anything. As the vice-dean, how can you say such things easily? I'm still waiting to drink the wedding wine between you and Erlong's sister-in-law!" She pretended not to care and spoke like a normal chat.
"Your Highness, I'm not kidding!" Shuitian's face darkened and he put down the teacup in his hand, looking extremely unhappy.
Xue Qinghe felt that he was pretending and tried again: "But what happened? Don't be impulsive, brother. After all, you have been working in the college for ten years. I believe Dean Liu will not let you go."
He never said he wanted to leave, but he never said he had this intention.
It almost made it clear that Xue Qinghe knew about your Shui Tian in the academy, so it was best not to hide your secrets from me.
"Your Highness, I don't want to mention this matter anymore. Why did you send someone to see me specifically?" He simply changed the subject. There was no point in continuing, and she left the rest to her own investigation.
Maybe he really didn't want to mention this kind of thing. Could it be that Liu Erlong hurt him deeply? Qian Renxue was a little confused about his specific thoughts.
Zhanyan smiled and said: "Okay, the eldest brother will atone for his sins, and the younger brother will be in trouble if he cares."
After he finished speaking, his smile instantly faded. He tapped his fingers on the table and said, "I wonder where eldest brother is going to take Sister Zhuqing? If eldest brother hasn't planned it yet, I have admired you for a long time. If eldest brother is willing to be the guest of my prince's residence, will you?" Just ask for anything you want!”
To show off her cards first and strike first, she simply took the initiative to leave Lanba Academy for him.
But this shouldn't send people to stop him. Shuitian guessed that she must be hiding a backhand.
He sighed and said: "I am tired of the life outside. Thanks to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for your kindness, I would like to take Zhuqing home to rest for a few years, to improve and enrich herself, and to give her a good cultivation environment."
"Brother is going back to the Northern Territory? If I remember correctly, eldest brother is from the Shui family in Beilincheng!" Xue Qinghe said pretending to be surprised, knowing that he had found out all about him early in the morning.
The Northern Territory is very large. All human living areas near the Far North are collectively called the Northern Territory. Beilincheng is the closest to the Far North and is also the largest town in the Northern Territory. Its total area is about one-third of Tiandou City.
Since this city is the last transit point for soul masters heading to the far north, the population ratio of Beilin City is not inferior to that of Tiandou City.
The towns in the Northern Territory are generally smaller than the central areas of the mainland. Due to the cold climate and natural geographical environment, it is impossible to build too large a city.
Shuitian nodded: "Exactly, my brother is also the head of the Shui family of this generation. There are many children in the family serving the empire in the Northern Territory."
The so-called effectiveness is just relying on the status of a soul master to earn free wages from the empire. Many soul master families do this. You would be a fool not to give them free money. The family will make arrangements when they really need them.
"That's it. That's such a pity. Brother, why should your strength be limited to a small Beilin City!" Qian Renxue shook her head, then changed her tone and said:
"Brother, you might as well think about it. I can provide the best cultivation environment for you and Zhuqing here. If eldest brother is willing to stay and help me, I guarantee that the next city lord of Beilin City will be the Shui family!"
This condition was set high enough. The city lord of the empire was directly appointed by the emperor. There had never been a time when the city lord of that city was from a soul master family.
This is very unfavorable to the rule of the empire, and is equivalent to entrusting a city to the soul master family, as if it were a separate kingdom.
It is true that the Shui family dominates Beilincheng. There are six major soul master families and one high-level soul master academy in the northern region. Among them, the Xue family and the Shui family are both in Beilincheng. The Xue family has always been headed by their Shui family.
The four families, Yu family, Shen family, Gu family and Qiu family, also have good relations with them.
The Northern Territory has always been united. If the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex family troubles Shuitian, the six major families may join forces to support Shuitian.
The academy will not participate. Tianshui Academy opened by the Ye family is one of the only two high-level soul master family academies in the Northern Territory.
If you want to enter the academy, you must not only be a girl, but you must also be beautiful and have a water-attribute martial spirit. It is an academy that is jointly guarded by the entire Northern Territory.
But if the Shui family expands to the point where they can dominate an entire town, everything will change. Even the Xue family may have other ideas.
Shuitian took a deep look at her, stood up with a smile and refused: "Thank you for your highness's kindness, but I'm just going to give it a try. Moreover, my Shui family are all ordinary soul masters and have no talent to manage an imperial town. I really can't take on the role of your highness." Thank you for your understanding.”
Zhu Zhuqing stood up after him, and the two of them looked like they were leaving now.
This answer was not satisfactory to her. Qian Renxue guessed that he did not want the Shui family to be at the forefront.
So he took out a memorial with a calm expression, walked over and handed it to Shuitian for him to check.
There is no royal symbol on this memorial. Instead, it is engraved with a large character "北".
It was the report from the Lord of Beilin City. Logically speaking, Shuitian was not qualified to read this, but now there were only three of them here, and he also wanted to know what was written in it.
Spreading out the report, Shuitian's face became increasingly ugly. Xue Qinghe clasped his hands behind his back and said impatiently: "Brother, this move of your Shui family is going too far. Although the ice marrow vein was discovered by the Shui family, it is in the territory of the empire after all. How can you ignore the emperor's order and occupy it?" What? My father is very dissatisfied with this~"
After finishing her words, she paused and her face became serious as she said, "A month ago, you Shui family members were so bold as to injure the royal caravan! Brother Shuitian, what do you want me to do?"
< br>
There are reasons for both things. She represents that the imperial family does not need to give reasons, just show the facts.
Shuitian read the above content completely and put it on the table aside, his expression returned to normal.
"If the empire needs ice marrow veins, it can mine them together with our Shui family! This vein is located in the outer circle of the Far North. I don't think the empire masters in the northern city have the ability to establish a foothold there!"
< br>
Hearing this, Xue Qinghe's eyes changed slightly. This was indeed a problem. From the map, it looked very close to the living area of the Ten Thousand Year Soul Beast. There was a high possibility of being attacked if he entered rashly.
"In this case, I will report my eldest brother's attitude to Father Ming. I wonder how eldest brother would explain your people's injury to my royal caravan?" She was unwilling to let Shuitian go.
Now that I can find reasons to threaten him, there is no need for me to continue to be entangled with this woman.
Shuitian glanced at his student and said: "Your Highness, you can do whatever you want. If a child of our clan does something wrong, he will be punished by the imperial law!"
For punishment, you also need to be able to find someone to do it.
The Northern Territory is neither big nor small, and the six major families cannot hide anywhere.
Xue Qinghe was speechless for a moment, and just because he couldn't handle it, he used this reason to try to embarrass him.
Unfortunately they all failed.
"If you have nothing else to do, I'll take my leave first. Your Highness might as well send someone to discuss with my brother about matters related to the Shui family. I'm just an ordinary member of the Shui family." Shuitian slightly bowed his hand, giving her a bit of a pretend prince. face.
Xue Qinghe hurriedly squeezed out a smile and said: "Brother, why are you in such a hurry? We don't talk about national affairs and family affairs. Today I specially invited the best piano player in Tiandou City. Why don't you enjoy it with your younger brother? I guarantee that you will never leave."< br>
"It's still unnecessary. The Northern Territory is far away and I still have to travel." Shuitian refused directly.
"Farewell, His Royal Highness."
Without giving Xue Qinghe a chance to refuse, he greeted Zhu Zhuqing and walked out.
This is very disrespectful to Xue Qinghe. Who asked her to find useless reasons to embarrass him!
Do you really think that Shuitian is easy to bully?
"Brother Shuitian, Brother Shuitian, wait~" Qian Renxue secretly scolded him for not making progress, and also regretted that she had moved too hastily, so she couldn't recruit him too hastily.
"Your Highness, stay~"
Shuitian turned around with a cold face, as if I was very angry and didn't want to say another word to you.
Seeing this, Xue Qinghe stopped and suddenly nodded in the direction behind him.
Shuitian felt something in his heart and turned around, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
It turns out that the violinist she was talking about was her, which was true. Xue Qinghe really valued him enough to invite her here.
Their eyes met, Shuitian slightly cupped his hands: "Master Tang Xuan~"
The woman looked to be around twenty-seven or eighty-years-old, with a pair of bright eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything in the world. The silver palace dress looked so perfect on her body, and her temperament surpassed that of any woman he had ever seen. .
With an elegant gait and a delicate smile, he bowed slightly and said: "Mr. Shui~"
The two had met at a palace dinner. They exchanged a few words without much contact, and they were considered acquaintances.
"Brother Shuitian, would you like to listen to Madam Yuehua play a piece of music together? Qinghe had a hard time inviting Madam here." Xue Qinghe came over and extended the invitation.
Tang Yuehua looked at Shuitian and the girl following him, a little surprised that he would appear in the Prince's Mansion.
The last time they met, Liu Erlong held his arm and looked at her like he was guarding against thieves. It was interesting to think about it.
Shuitian frowned and said: "Let's talk about it next time when we have a chance~"
He still refused and nodded apologetically to Tang Yuehua, not wanting to have anything to do with this woman.
Tang Yuehua also nodded slightly. The two of them were like two parallel lines that did not intersect, and they were originally from two worlds.
Feeling embarrassed, Xue Qinghe reluctantly said: "I wonder when the eldest brother will come back? The younger brother will take care of the wind for the eldest brother~"
Shuitian didn't answer, but led Zhu Zhuqing away slowly.
For ignoring the prince's face so rudely, Xue Qinghe's face finally showed a bit of anger.
Do you really think she has to recruit this guy?
After Shuitian took Zhu Zhuqing away, Xue Qinghe slowly put away his emotions and said, "I'm sorry, Madam, for making your trip in vain."
Tang Yuehua said with a smile: "Your Highness, you are welcome."
Seeing that the woman's appearance was even better than that of Liu Erlong, Xue Qinghe asked hesitantly: "What do Mrs. Yuehua think of Mr. Shuitian?"
"Sorry, I don't know much about Mr. Shui. Yuexuan welcomes anyone who wants to learn music and etiquette. If Mr. Shui wants to come to Yuexuan, he is welcome." Tang Yuehua answered smartly from another perspective.
How could she, who had been wandering around the top of the empire for many years, not guess his thoughts? It was completely random.
Xue Qinghe didn't say anything when he heard this, he just thought about it. I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to come back after leaving. I hope he won't be the enemy of Wuhun Palace in the future!
Walking out of the Prince's Mansion, no one stopped him all the way.
Qian Renxue's attitude today is very dangerous. If you want to force him to surrender, it will be equivalent to the surrender of the entire Shui family!
After returning, he must discuss with his eldest brother to gather family power and avoid contact and fights with people from the empire.
As for Tang Yuehua, he is completely useless. There is no need for him to go to the Killing City, nor does he need her to help him purify his soul~
Wait, Shuitian suddenly stopped, causing Zhu Zhuqing to almost hit his back again.
Do you really don't need Tang Yuehua to help you?
Maybe with her help I can get out faster~
Isn’t her special ability to make people feel at ease just right for me now?
Forget it, it's better not to have contact with people from the Haotian Sect.
I still gave up this plan and went home to settle down, which would always solve the problem.
Zhu Zhuqing looked at her teacher. She had noticed something was wrong just now. The prince respected her teacher on the surface, but in fact he always wanted to control him.
This made people feel very uncomfortable, or at least made her feel uncomfortable.
