Embroidered Uniform Guard: I Can Plunder Talents Chapter 202 - 42: No Plan at All, Relying Entirely on the Op
"This is already more than enough!"
Seeing that Ye Liuyun didn’t show any arrogant pride in his achievents.
Prince Jin—Yan Ze—was even more satisfied.
See? Now this is the kind of person who truly helps to solve my problems.
After a long sigh, Prince Jin, Yan Ze, seed to rember sothing, and suddenly started to ponder.
Ye Liuyun, however, didn’t interrupt.
Instead, he was calculating in his mind what excuse he could use to leave Prince Jin City.
After all, everything that needed to be done was already finished.
Staying here any longer seed pointless. Was he really supposed to keep acting with Prince Jin forever?
However.
Before Ye Liuyun could even bring out the excuse he had prepared in advance,
Prince Jin, Yan Ze, handed him a perfectly good reason on a silver platter.
"Brother Ye, there is sothing I hope you can help with!"
"Your Highness, if you have anything to say, please do!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun put on a serious face, as if showing that whatever Prince Jin, Yan Ze, dared to ask, he would definitely get it done.
Just keeping up appearances, after all.
No matter how troubleso the task was, at most he could just make a run for it. If they had the nerve, let them co chase in the Imperial City.
"I’d like to ask Brother Ye to return to the Imperial City as soon as possible!"
"???"
Well, damn.
Are you the parasite in my stomach or what? You know I’ve already started thinking about going back, and now you just hand the perfect excuse.
"Brother Ye, I know you can’t bear to leave , but this ti, I really do need your help!"
Seeing Ye Liuyun’s stunned expression,
he thought Ye Liuyun was reluctant to return to the Imperial City.
After all, in Prince Jin City, it’s out of the Emperor’s reach. With my protection, Ye Liuyun can do whatever he pleases, but once he returns to the Imperial City, where power struggles are entangled and complex,
it’s nothing like the freedom he enjoys here. Not wanting to go back is perfectly reasonable.
"..."
Is there really anything here worth missing?
Once Ye Liuyun ca back to his senses, he first gave Prince Jin a silent look, but then composed himself and replied,
"Since it’s Your Highness’s request, of course I’ll help. I just don’t know—what exactly does Prince Jin need to do?"
"Ah!"
Seeing Ye Liuyun agree, Prince Jin, Yan Ze, let out a breath of relief and smiled easily.
He couldn’t help but let out another sigh.
"After this whole affair, I realize that intelligence is the most vital thing. I ca to Prince Jin City in a hurry and didn’t have ti to plant any n in the Imperial City. So, I hope Brother Ye can help relay so ssages for once you’re back in the Imperial City!"
So much thought for one issue.
Prince Jin, Yan Ze, also realized a problem.
If I’d had n in the Imperial City earlier, I would have known in advance about Fu Zhengqing’s plans to deal with . I could have made preparations ahead of ti,
instead of ending up so passive, like now.
Even though Qi Yuanliang is dealt with, all my trump cards are now gone.
As for why he thought of Ye Liuyun—
Well, that’s simple too.
Ye Liuyun is a Lord Thousand Households in the Embroidered Uniform Guard. That rank isn’t high in the Imperial City, but it’s not low either.
Most importantly, Ye Liuyun is a Martial Artist at the Innate Perfection level.
With that strength, taking another step up will be a breeze.
Qi Yuanliang was, after all, the Southern Governor, wasn’t he? Now that he’s dead, who else but Ye Liuyun could take over the Southern Governor’s post? Prince Jin couldn’t think of anyone else.
If I have such a person as my agent,
soone to pass intelligence back from the Imperial City,
then even if soone tries to set up, at least I’ll know ahead of ti and won’t be so on the back foot.
"This..."
Ye Liuyun didn’t say yes right away, putting on a face of hesitation and thoughtfulness.
Though Ye Liuyun definitely intended to return to the Imperial City, he couldn’t just let that show too easily.
Watching Prince Jin, Yan Ze’s face, which was becoming increasingly anxious,
Ye Liuyun finally relented.
"Since it’s Your Highness’s request, how could I refuse? Rest assured, Your Highness, I’ll set out tonight and prepare to return to the Imperial City!"
"Good!"
Seeing Ye Liuyun act like this,
Prince Jin was even more moved.
In Prince Jin, Yan Ze’s mind, Ye Liuyun was sacrificing a carefree life in Prince Jin City just for his sake, choosing instead to return to the flas and boiling water of the Imperial City.
It made his trust in Ye Liuyun deepen even further.
...
That sa night,
when Ye Liuyun left the Prince Jin’s Mansion, he was taking two carts packed to the brim with goods,
looking every bit like soone going ho with a full harvest.
"Brother Ye, this journey will certainly be full of dangers. I’m sending Jiang Jing with you. If you need anything, you’re always welco to co back to !"
Letting Jiang Jing leave with Ye Liuyun was, actually, Jiang Jing’s own suggestion.
But even so, Prince Jin, Yan Ze, had thought it over carefully before approving.
After all, Prince Jin, Yan Ze, knew perfectly well why Jiang Jing served under him—it was only because of Qu Sisi, wasn’t it?
But now that Qu Sisi is gone,
Prince Jin, Yan Ze, was no longer sure of Jiang Jing’s loyalty.
Given that, might as well let Jiang Jing leave.
In Prince Jin’s estimate, maybe Jiang Jing would simply leave Ye Liuyun halfway on their journey back to the Imperial City, and return to being a free and easy roaming hero of the martial world.
As for saying all this—well, it was just for show anyway.
"Your Highness’s thoughtfulness truly moves your humble servant. You have my word—should anything stir in the Imperial City, I will let Your Highness know at once!"
"Good!"
Hearing Ye Liuyun say this,
Prince Jin, Yan Ze, nodded in satisfaction,
and then watched as Ye Liuyun and his party departed.
