The Empress's Gigolo-Chapter 897 - Rumormongering
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After seven days of deliberation, they came up with a more detailed plan.
Everyone was very satisfied with the outcome.
Ma Hongyu and Xu Gongsou were delighted as they felt they had fought for the greatest benefits for Great Xia.
Blood River Demon was also happy as with this organization; he wouldn’t be beaten by other groups.
He was wondering whether he could beat other people up.
Lin Yue was also satisfied as she was eating and sleeping well. The most important thing for her was the discovery of a wonderful product from another world: melon seeds.
During these few days of discussion in the palace hall, a group of melon seed eaters was formed. Every day, each of them would hold a bag of melon seeds, finish the bag at night, and appear with a new bag the next day.
Ren Baqian was even more satisfied and was beaming when he returned to the palace every day.
The only people who weren’t satisfied were probably many of the aboriginal court officials because they felt that the other side had taken advantage of them.
The initial chief was the empress while the deputies were Li Fu and Lin Dong. The latter was an unexpected choice, but was in fact the most suitable candidate. Ren Baqian had a good impression of him since Lin Dong had many years of experience managing a cult…
Or rather, he had experience managing an organization.
He had his own unique method when it came to brainwashing.
From Ren Baqian’s point of view, Lin Dong was more useful than Li Fu.
As for Li Fu, his more important role was being an icon.
However, the third, fourth, sixth, ninth, and tenth ranked experts in the world were in this organization. As a result, Li Fu’s role as an icon was not that important and was considered the icing on the cake.
As a matter of fact, Ren Baqian wanted to use Li Fu for another purpose.
He could block attacks!
If Xu Wuming were to attack, it would be a waste if Li Fu, the world’s most powerful expert and also a deputy in the organization, wasn’t used to block him.
Although Ren Baqian was confident in being able to take down Xu Wuming, he first had to block Xu Wuming’s initial strike or else he would be killed if Xu Wuming took him by surprise.
In addition, Great Xia was divided into 15 areas that were controlled by 15 level one executive officials.
Their main responsibility was recruiting new members.
When they recruited enough members, they could become second or third level executive officials.
On the surface, Dayao was also divided into 15 areas that were under Qingyun Sword, Zuo Cheng, and some of the top aboriginal experts. However, everyone was clear about the situation in Dayao.
In this way, an organization of the human race was formed in Dayao.
Except for these people and the aboriginal officials, the citizens of Lan City didn’t know of this matter and didn’t know what impact it would have on their future.
As the organization was newly established, besides having many experts, it didn’t have other members. Going forward, they had to depend on these experts to recruit more people.
Before that, they had another thing to do, which was to head into the Sixty Thousand Mountains and find out whether the foreign races were like what Ren Baqian described.
Coincidentally, Qi Ziting had recently found some traces of the foreign races in the Sixty Thousand Mountains and was mobilizing masters to go there.
These masters required a reduced time of five months to rush over as they were top experts.
In this era, everything was slow, and it took five months even when they hurried.
Even news could be stuck on the road for months.
Therefore, Qi Ziting waited patiently for these experts to arrive.
Three people were exceptions: Li Yuanzhu, Lin Yue, and Blood River Demon.
Li Yuanzhu was going to deal with Su Xianxian.
Lin Yue would rather spend her time feasting and drinking in Lan City and preferred to leave all these troublesome affairs to others.
Ren Baqian felt that she and Lin Qiaole shared the same interests.
As for Blood River Demon… He already knew many things and wasn’t interested as a result.
However, it seemed to Ren Baqian that he was in a hurry to go back and recruit more people. After all, he had been beaten by others for half his life and finally had the opportunity to beat up others!
“See this button? Press it to access the public channel and inquire about the other side. At the same time, use it to report the situation here.”
The various experts were gathered around a table.
“You can use this thing to talk to someone 1,000 kilometers away?” Everyone was amazed to find this strange and wonderful item in Dayao.
After Ren Baqian tuned the frequency to match the channel, they heard a voice say, “I really miss Lan City. I wonder whether anyone has stolen my fine wine.”
“What nonsense are you spouting? Discipline your son and bring him to work under me. He’s already 20 and still languishing in Lan City. At that age, I had already killed countless people.”
“Forget it… I’m still waiting for grandchildren… I heard that he and the girl from the Hong family are quite close.”
“Xi Wanya, what did you say?” Another voice, which sounded stern, was heard.
“General-in-Chief who Supports the Nation, it seems like you have gained a generation. One of them is your granddaughter and the other is my son! You should be chuckling.” Xi Wanya wasn’t afraid of Hong Wu and kept on blabbering.
“Get lost! Don’t let me see you again!”
“All of you are more comfortable over there. Meanwhile, I’m here catching rats every day and running out of patience… If Zhao Prince Consort and the empress didn’t send a decree, I would have killed those rats until their blood flowed like a river!” A male voice that could make people feel chills was heard.
“Kill, kill, kill! That’s all you know. What else do you know? You are already so old. Don’t you have a brain?”
“Zhuo Yue, I’m going to kill you!” That chilling voice sounded angry.
“Such a grown up man, yet your brain still hasn’t grown. Kill, kill, kill—come and kill me. You are just being stupid.”
Ren Baqian was puzzled. Hong Wu from the Protectorate of the North, Li Donglai from the Protectorate of the Northeast, Xi Wanya from the Protectorate of the South, Li Qianqiu from the Protectorate of the Center, Zhuo Yue from the Protectorate of the Southeast, and Ren Baqian’s brother-in-law… Was this a chatroom?
“That’s a real voice!” Gluttonous Duke muttered to himself.
The rest of them showed all kinds of complex expressions.
Three names were heard from the voices coming from the box: Xi Wanya, Hong Wu, and Zhuo Yue.
Those who knew Dayao would know what these names represented.
These three people were located far away from each other, but were surprisingly able to communicate through this little box.
Although the names of the other speakers were not mentioned, everyone could guess who they were.
It was amazing that the five protectorates could communicate through this little box. This thing was so convenient and useful.
No wonder Dayao seldom suffered defeat when facing Great Xia over the past few years or when invading the Yun Nation. The coordination between the various armies was flawless and amazed those who studied the battles. They could actually communicate in real-time.
“Cough, how is everyone today? Has brother-in-law eaten? Has everyone eaten?”
“Oh, it’s Zhao Prince Consort!” Xi Wanya laughed heartily.
“How is Zhao Prince Consort doing?” Li Qianqiu asked with a laugh.
“Oh, Zhao Prince Consort is here. It’s a pity I have not had a chance to work with you. When I return to Lan City to report, I will definitely have a good chat with Zhao Prince Consort.” Zhuo Yue’s voice came out smoothly from the radio.
Ren Baqian immediately conjured up an image of a fat man with an oily face.
“Hi!” Hong Wu greeted.
“Hi!” Li Donglai greeted.
For different reasons, these two had different opinions of Ren Baqian.
“Little fellow, if you betray my sister… I will chop you up to feed the worms!” Qi Ziting was heard speaking from a distance.
“Oh, elder brother-in-law has said this many times!” Ren Baqian laughed heartily. “How would that be possible?”
The very next second, Ren Baqian’s laughing expression froze.
“I heard that you and that wretched woman, Li Yuanzhu, have been making eyes at each other…” Qi Ziting said.
Ren Baqian’s eyes widened, and he could feel the gazes of the crowd staring at him even without turning his head. Of course he didn’t want to look at Li Yuanzhu.
However, he had no intention of thinking about the expressions of the others and roared furiously, “You can eat anything you want, but you can’t speak improperly! When did I flirt with Li Yuanzhu? Which bastard is the rumormonger? Let him explain to me or I will let his family have a reunion in hell.”
The people around Ren Baqian retreated five meters away and looked at Li Yuanzhu and Ren Baqian curiously.
Only Lin Yue was beside Li Yuanzhu, whose expression looked uncertain as she gnashed her teeth. Lin Yue held a bag of melon seeds and was thinking deeply.
