Embroidered Uniform Guard: I Can Plunder Talents-Chapter 301 - 75: The Second Red-Grade Talent Appears! Weapon Mastery_2
"Yes, my lord!"
Hearing Ye Liuyun say this, Si Nan and the others nodded in understanding, accepted the order, and left at once.
As for Ye Liuyun, he simply left the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters.
,,,
"This, uh..."
Over at the Ministry of Rites.
They had waited from daylight till nightfall, only to finally receive a message telling them to go home, without even a meeting?
The faces of several Ministry of Rites officials turned pitch-black in an instant.
Even if their official ranks weren’t that high, they’d never been treated with such disregard before.
Si Nan, seeing their reactions, looked completely unsurprised.
Not only did he show no fear, he even shrugged his shoulders casually and spoke nonchalantly.
"That’s my lord’s intention. If you gentlemen have any objections, why not go tell my lord in person?"
"..."
The anger that had just risen was instantly doused.
If they really had the guts to confront Ye Liuyun at his residence, they wouldn’t have been waiting here all this time.
The incident from the last morning court session wasn’t that long ago.
Ye Liuyun’s vengeful reputation was already widely known throughout the Great Qian Dynasty.
Really want them to go pick a fight with Ye Liuyun? Even if they had twice the courage, they wouldn’t dare.
No way around it.
In the end, they could only mumble awkwardly,
"Since Lord Ye has arrangements, we’ll take our leave for now!"
Saying that, with a flick of their sleeves, they left immediately.
Watching them walk away, Si Nan couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
"As expected, working for the lord is just awesome!"
Back in the day, even as a Lord Thousand Households, he still had to be polite to these Ministry of Rites people.
After all, the rank of a Lord Thousand Households wasn’t exactly prestigious.
But now...
Working for Ye Liuyun, even if these Ministry of Rites folks outranked him, they still had to tread carefully when talking to him, didn’t they?
"That’s the lord’s prestige, not yours!"
Shi Sheng, standing on the side, looked at the smug Si Nan and said irritably.
"You’d better focus on cultivating. I heard there’s a young genius among the new batch of Embroidered Uniform Guards!"
The Embroidered Uniform Guard walks a razor’s edge for a living—getting casualties is just par for the course.
So...
They recruit new blood at regular intervals.
Some are planted by various powers, but if numbers fall short, they also scout from the general populace.
Shi Sheng had heard from his own men recently,
that among the new Embroidered Uniform Guards, there’s a real talent—seventeen or eighteen at most, had already reached First-class Realm, and was about to break into the Postnatal Realm.
That kind of talent is already outstanding.
"Don’t let one of your own subordinates surpass you—that’d really be a disgrace!"
Though he said that...
Shi Sheng wasn’t actually trying to mock Si Nan; he really just wanted him to spend more time cultivating.
Ever since breaking through to First-class Realm, Si Nan had started slacking off again.
If you don’t whack him with a stick, he just won’t budge.
"Trust me, I’m more clear on that than you!"
Si Nan naturally understood the importance of strength, but it couldn’t be helped.
It’s just his personality, and even Si Nan couldn’t do much about it. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
"Fine, starting tomorrow, I’ll work hard cultivating, aim to break through to the Postnatal Realm as soon as I can!"
Shi Sheng was genuinely gratified by Si Nan making such a statement.
No matter what, as the two who’d been with Ye Liuyun the longest, even if they bickered all day, the relationship between Si Nan and Shi Sheng was still solid.
But Shi Sheng was still puzzled.
"Why not start trying tonight?"
If you’re gonna put in the effort, early or late, what’s the difference?
But Si Nan, on hearing this,
gave Shi Sheng an exasperated glare, then said with a matter-of-fact tone,
"Obviously, because I’m going to the Imperial Music Bureau tonight!"
"..."
You little shit!
The gratified expression vanished instantly. Shi Sheng gave Si Nan a dirty look.
This hopeless fool—just can’t be saved.
"Hey!"
Watching Shi Sheng about to walk off, Si Nan called out without hesitation.
"I’m buying. You in or not?"
After all the family raids with Ye Liuyun, if there’s anything they’re not lacking, it’s money.
"In!"
Shi Sheng agreed on the spot, no hesitation.
"Let’s go, call Jiang Jing too!"
He’d thought to invite Ye Liuyun along at first, but Si Nan could tell the lord seemed to have something to take care of, so he didn’t ask.
