Xiao Ceyun felt that even if these people from Qian State had never been to Wu State, they should know who was the most powerful in Wu State.
If they don't accept the invitation from the abbot, wouldn't this be a slap in the face of the abbot?
But looking at Lin Yiqiu's expression, he looked serious, as if he just wanted to abide by the process and had no other meaning.
"Master Lin, everyone, please!"
Chen Mohan was naturally happy to see the other party make this choice.
Of course, he would rather see Xiao Ceyun defeated.
Leaving a very sarcastic smile behind, he had already taken Lin Yiqiu into the city.
"Damn! I was actually tricked by him!"
Clenching his fists, Xiao Ceyun looked serious.
If the father-in-law knew about this, he would probably be furious again.
But the people under his command came together at this moment.
"Sir, they don't want to follow us, how about we just rob them?"
"Robbery? Do you have the guts to do this?"
Xiao Ceyun snorted coldly: "What he said just now has no problem with Yu Li. If we just rob it by force, wouldn't it mean that our Wu Kingdom is really not the emperor who makes the decision?"
"This...this is also true."
The subordinates said angrily.
"Forget it, let's go back and recover. Things are already like this. Let's see what the father-in-law thinks."
After saying this, Xiao Ceyun also led people into the city.
And he himself rushed towards the father-in-law's mansion in the distance.
Riding a horse and walking on the streets of the capital of Wu State, people looked up from time to time.
The formation of the Foreign Affairs Division is very strong, reflecting the royal majesty.
This also caused everyone to speculate on the identity of Lin Yiqiu and others.
Lin Yiqiu watched silently, without saying a word, but he was already alert to possible dangers around him.
Cang Hong also had the same expression, his eyes were cold and careful, staring at the surroundings like an eagle!
After all, this is the capital of Wu State, who knows what methods the other side will use.
And here, if they encounter any danger, Qian Guo can't help them.
Chen Mohan seemed to see everyone's nervousness and smiled: "Master Lin, you don't have to be so alert. With our Foreign Affairs Department here, there will be no danger."
He is much kinder than Xiao Ceyun.
Lin Yiqiu responded with a smile.
"Master Chen, it seems that your emperor welcomes our arrival?"
"Welcome? That's not a bad thing to say. Although this is a hostage exchange, our Wu and Qian countries have not had any major frictions in recent years, so the relationship is not bad."
"His Majesty the Emperor has already said that we must protect your safety and there must be no accidents."
Chen Mohan seems to be a close confidant of the emperor. From the moment he appeared to the beginning, every time he mentioned the emperor, his face was very respectful!
Lin Yiqiu keenly grasped the key points.
"Master Chen, what do you mean, we will definitely have an accident in Wu Kingdom?"
"I can't say for sure. Who knows what some people might think?"
After he finished speaking, he laughed a few times.
Then he pointed to a luxurious mansion in front of him.
"Everyone, we are already here."
"This is a place specially used by our Foreign Affairs Department to receive envoys from other countries. The royal family sent people to decorate it personally."
"A place like this shouldn't disgrace your status as a mission to the country, right?"
"Of course not. I'm just a eunuch. I might not be used to living in such a nice place yet."
Lin Yiqiu responded politely.
Judging from the brief conversation, two things can be determined!
First, Chen Mohan is undoubtedly the emperor's man, and he has a bad relationship with Xiao Ceyun, who is under the abbot of the country!
Second: At present, Emperor Wu's attitude towards them is relatively friendly, and he is not hostile to them because of the hostage exchange.
But there are still uncertainties.
That is the attitude of the father-in-law. What exactly is it?
This guy, as a real powerful official of the Wu Kingdom, whether the previous killers were appointed by him is also a question.
It seems that the further you go, the more careful you will have to be. At least the abbot cannot see through it yet.
Lin Yiqiu frowned and followed Chen Mohan into the mansion.
.....
The mansion of the father-in-law.
After listening to Xiao Ceyun's report, Pei Tianlin's expression kept changing.
"People from the Foreign Affairs Department took them away?"
"Yes, then Chen Mohan has a very tough attitude. He also said that this is originally the responsibility of the Foreign Affairs Department and the Town Government Department should not intervene."
"My subordinates couldn't figure out what he meant, so they didn't dare to conflict with him without permission. It's a pity that he couldn't bring him back. Please punish the king!"
Xiao Ceyun bowed respectfully.
Pei Tianlin did not speak directly, but closed his eyes and thought for several seconds.
Then, he said calmly: "You are right. It is really inappropriate for us to have a conflict with the Foreign Affairs Department now."
"After all, they are all close confidants of the emperor. I can't just slap His Majesty the Emperor in the face."
"But our Emperor, what on earth is he thinking about?"
Pei Tianlin really couldn't figure it out.
Should we unite with these missions from other countries to check and balance ourselves?
This is a fantasy!
There are only a few dozen people in the mission, how big a disturbance can it cause?
It is too unrealistic to rely on them to deal with you!
But this time the Foreign Affairs Department's attitude was so tough, it was completely different from before.
This was something that Pei Tianlin did not expect.
"Sir, what should we do next? Do you need me to take action to get those Qianguo people?"
Xiao Ceyun made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Pei Tianlin heard this and waved his hand.
"No, since they have arrived at the capital, there is no need to continue the assassination."
"If they die here in the capital, they will easily get burned."
"And with the Jinyi Guards protecting you, it is already difficult to take action. The previous failure is the best example!"
After saying that, Pei Tianlin continued to frown and think.
Is it just because of etiquette that these envoys from the Qian Kingdom chose to go with the Foreign Affairs Bureau instead of the Zhenfu Bureau?
I'm afraid it's not that simple.
Pei Tianlin had also heard a bit about the eunuch named Lin Yiqiu, and he seemed to be deeply favored by Emperor Qian in the Qian Kingdom.
Such a person must have his own agenda!
"Then what should we do?"
Xiao Ceyun continued to ask coldly.
Pei Tianlin said: "Although it is not easy to kill them, it is still possible to cause some trouble and give them a little power."
"As for Elder Tu and Elder Mu, whether they die or not doesn't mean much to us!"
"By the way! There is one more important thing!"
His tone suddenly became serious.
"Sir, please speak!"
Xiao Ceyun looked confused.
"Watch Xia Lingfeng! If these Jinyi guards come together, they may cause trouble and rob the prison!"
"And before handing Xia Lingfeng over to them, you must pry out the secrets of the intelligence network from Xia Lingfeng as soon as possible! Do you understand?"
"Yes! My subordinates must pry open his mouth as quickly as possible!"
By the time he finished speaking, Xiao Ceyun had already retreated.
And Pei Tianlin closed his eyes again.
"Your Majesty, what are you trying to do with me?" This chapter has been completed!
