The Ruler
264. Qing Ruo and Yuan Liu.
Not far from the disciples of the Yin clan.
Qing Ruo and his entourage continued to move away from the forbidden area of the palace, sneaking from tree to tree carefully.
" Young master, they're moving towards us" said Xui Yen.
" General, remain calm and voiceless. We are safe" said Mayi Cao speaking via telepathy.
" Good sir."
And sure enough, those Yin clan disciples did not even find a trace of them.
" This illusory shield is truly extraordinary" said AXui Yen and his entourage in amazement.
After moving the entire time, they finally arrived at the outskirts of the palace, then entered a small passageway that turned out to lead to Yuan Liu's residence.
" Young master, we have arrived" he said, bringing Qing Ruo and his entourage into the palace area under strict guard.
" Thank you," Qing Ruo said respectfully, then moved into the palace area quietly.
Inside the palace area, there were several female servants who were high-ranking warriors disguised as servants guarding the place.
" Daughter, are there no men in this place?" qing Ruo asked in surprise.
" None, young master. This is a forbidden area that only women can enter" Yuan Liu explained.
" Is the princess sure this place is safe?" qing Ruo asked once more while casually stepping his feet. .
" Of course young master, they are people loyal to the Yuan clan, "he replied seriously.
" That's good," Qing Ruo said calmly.
Not long after, they entered the palace.
" Please young master," Yuan Liu said respectfully.
" Thank you," Qing Ruo said as she entered the room and inspected the place carefully.
" Not bad," his inner being dined on every spot that had been sealed with a high-level formation spell.
Not long after, several servants entered the room, and began to serve them by serving food and drink to everyone in the place.
" Please young master," Yuan Liu said respectfully.
" Thank you, princess..." Sip the drink calmly.
On the left and right sides of Qing Ruo, Mayi Xian and Mayi Cao sat down to enjoy the drink quietly.
" It seems like Yuan Liu's daughter is in love with the ruler" Mayi Xian said speaking to Qing Ruo via telepathy.
Qing Ruo smiled wryly.
" About that, can you help me?"
" What is the ruler?"
" Help me to say that I have a wife, so that she doesn't expect too much."
" Good Ruler, I understand," said Mayi Xian who instantly understood Qing Ruo's intentions.
As Qing Ruo's servant, Mayi Xian must have gotten information from Long Chen and his entourage explaining Qing Ruo's figure was one who would never share her heart for another woman.
" Do it in an elegant way," Qing Ruo said.
" Good ruler...."
" Lord, there is a message from young master Qing Yong Jun," Mayi Xian said suddenly, while showing Qing Ruo a soul jade badge.
" Oh, what's wrong with Jun er?" qing Ruo asked curiously.
" Ask, when did you return to the Clan." replied Mayi Xian respectfully.
Qing Ruo smiled casually, shaking.
" Tell Jun er, that I'll be back once the business is over."
" Good Ruler."
By his side, Mayi Cao who did not understand the intent of Qing Ruo and Mayi Xian only smiled casually.
In the presence of Qing Ruo, in the main seat, Yuan Liu who heard the conversation could only fall silent.
" It turned out that young master Qing Ruo had married..." Deepened, while enjoying his drink with a feeling of sadness, and the reaction was understood by Lu Dan.
" Daughter, I know the princess likes young master Qing Ruo, but an ordinary young master has many wives, so don't be discouraged" he said via telepathy.
" General, I don't want to discuss that." said firmly.
" Good princess..."
" Daughter, in order to shorten the time, are we able to start the conversation?" qing Ruo asked respectfully.
" Alright, go ahead.." said Qing Ruo kindly.
Not long after, the warriors disguised as servants outside the previous palace, entered the room, then joined the conversation.
" Young master, they are the secret protectors of Gu Lu city. Out of the thousands that existed, only they were still loyal, whereas the others had now become accomplices of that Yin Clan. Please young master does not mind their presence," he explained in a tone full of anger.
" Alright," Qing Ruo replied as she nodded her head.
" Young ruler, it turns out that this matter does have something to do with the Yin clan," Mayi Xian said speaking to Qing Ruo via telepathy.
" Right," Qing Ruo said.
Before Qing Ruo, Yuan Liu began to explain the problems they were facing.
" Young master, for these thousands of years, we residents of Gu Lu city have lived under pressure and oppression. Getting out of the city and finding a new place to live is impossible, but continuing to survive in this city is also increasingly difficult. Shen Guoshi Yin, who was previously the protector of Gu Lu city had now become the invader himself. As the young master saw before, the Yin clan even placed their Clan disciples in every place, to watch over this city. Young master Qing Ruo, please help her." With a serious face.
Qing Ruo was speechless, looking at the faces that were inside the room quietly.
" What kind of help does the princess want?"
" Young master, help us expel them," Yuan Liu replied in seriousness.
" It's not easy. First I didn't come with an army, and I couldn't just use my status either. In addition, this conversation is one-sided" Qing Ruo said.
" What does the young master mean?"
" Daughter lord, such a very important conversation like this was at least attended by the emperor's Majesty, the elders and the city higher-ups of Gu Lu," Qing Ruo replied in seriousness, making Yuan Liu and his entourage speechless.
" Daughter, even though Shen Guoshi Yin is in trouble, they are still a powerful big clan. If we act without careful preparation, it is not like slitting your own neck" Mayi Xian said.
" But is the young master willing to help us?" Yuan Liu asked seriously.
Qing Ruo nodded her head.
" In addition to the promised gift, there will be something else I want to talk about. But you must make sure of yourself earnestly."
" Young master, thank you. I will discuss this matter with father," Yuan Liu said solemnly.
" Alright," Qing Ruo replied.
" Young master, while waiting for us to prepare for the next fight, please young master and elder both rest," he said as he called for the maid to take Qing Ruo and his entourage to the resting place.
" Good princess," Qing Ruo replied respectfully, then followed the servant who directed her to the resting place.
After Qing Ruo and the entourage left, Yuan Liu directly talked about their plans.
" Gather the people who are still loyal to the Yuan clan, as well as those who are still in the gray zone."
" But princess, is this not too risky." said Xui Long with a doubtful face.
" If we think too much about risk, then we won't have another chance."
" Good princess. What about the meeting time?" ask Xui Long.
" Tomorrow night, ask them to come to this place carefully."
" Good princess.." then rushed out of the room.
After all the generals and servants left, Yuan Liu left his room to meet the Emperor.
****
Somewhere else.
Qing Ruo and the entourage, finally arrived at the special room that was still inside the palace area.
" Young master, please," said the waiter respectfully.
" Thank you, miss." Then enter the room.
" Gentlemen, come." said the servant, taking Mayi Xian and Mayi Cao to his room.
" No, miss. We are here only," Mayi Xian said as he stood guard at the spot.
" But sir.." he said hesitantly.
" Miss, we are the servants of young master Qing Ruo, so calm down."
" Well, if the gentlemen need anything, the two of you can call me" the girl said respectfully.
" Okay" Mayi Cao replied kindly.
After the servant girl left, Qing Ruo then called Mayi Xian and Mayi Cao into the room.
" But the ruler...."
" Come in, it's not easy for them to be able to gather a lot of people in a short time. Besides this place being safe, you can also stand guard inside" Qing Ruo said.
" Good ruler...." Then enter the room.
