Chapter 328
Sect cultivators still care too much about face; even if they like someone, they can't let go of their face.
Saying this, Youlan Youlan Xianzi Immortal Shu Yu also tidied up her lapels.
But while tidying up, she was also thinking that there was finally someone who could discover her charm.
Being able to attract the love of a young and powerful cultivator, doesn't that also show that she is very excellent?
Women are like this; the more excellent the man who likes them, the prouder the woman is.
"Sister, every word I said is true, not a joke. I know you feel this is very sudden, and I am not the kind of person who is eager for success. Why don't we understand each other more? My home is in the Imperial Capital, there are many empty rooms, and you have no place to stay. Why don't you go back and see with me?"
Li Chen said lightly, even if he had downplayed his thoughts, Youlan Youlan Xianzi Immortal Shu Yu wasn't stupid.
With that look of wanting to eat me up, if I go to your house, can I still come out?
And ever since Youlan Youlan Xianzi Immortal Shu Yu knew Li Chen's thoughts, looking at him was no longer looking at a junior.
Youlan Youlan Xianzi Immortal Shu Yu was also afraid; if she couldn't bear to refuse, maybe something would happen tonight.
Don't look at Li Chen's appearance as very plain, but Youlan Youlan Xianzi Immortal Shu Yu could feel Li Chen's strength and dominance in his bones.
"Next time, I have important business in the Imperial Capital this time, I have to go back first."
Youlan Youlan Xianzi Immortal Shu Yu was already politely indicating a refusal and also indicating that she was leaving.
If she were already a married woman, Li Chen really wouldn't let her go, because once such a person goes back, it's hard to have this kind of communication opportunity again.
Just like the Princess of Zhennan, how could Li Chen let her leave the Imperial Capital?
But Youlan Youlan Xianzi Immortal Shu Yu could be considered a woman waiting in her boudoir, so Li Chen was still relatively patient.
"Alright, next time I go to the Gui Xu Wu Ya Sect, I will definitely visit Sister."
Hearing Li Chen say this, Youlan Youlan Xianzi Immortal Shu Yu was expectant and at the same time a bit uneasy.
If Li Chen seriously pursued her, she would certainly consider it; she had no Daoist companion just because she couldn't find a suitable one, not because she didn't like men.
What was uneasy was that there were so many people in the sect; if it spread out, how could she stay?
Especially the Divine Son, Shizi Shizi Jun Zhan Tian, what kind of look would he use to look at her?
The Supreme Walker is this old, and she actually seduced my buddy?
Wei Manying entered the courtyard, paid respects to this clansman, and briefly recounted what happened at the teahouse today.
It's not like she couldn't let Li Chen come to the Gui Xu Wu Ya Sect; he was Shizi Shizi Jun Zhan Tian's friend after all.
Youlan Youlan Xianzi Immortal Shu Yu also began to understand at this time why Li Chen's address for her went from "Youlan Youlan Xianzi" to "Youlan Youlan Xianzi Sister" to "Sister"; it turned out this was a gradual process.
Addressing her as Youlan Youlan Xianzi was certainly a respectful address; as for Sister, it meant he had thoughts.
This kind of subtle hint was also a style Li Chen was very good at.
As long as he gradually addressed her further and she didn't feel disgusted, didn't that prove she accepted it in her heart?
Li Chen knew how strong his conditions were; what Youlan Youlan Xianzi Immortal Shu Yu saw was only the surface, and the more powerful side would probably have to wait for the next stage.
Next was some relatively normal communication, and Li Chen didn't deliberately try to keep her, making her have more and more favorability toward him.
Youlan Youlan Xianzi Immortal Shu Yu was afraid that Li Chen would pester her; after all, it was only the first meeting, so there needed to be a process.
Li Chen wasn't afraid of her running away; at worst, he would go to the Gui Xu Wu Ya Sect again. Anyway, he had gained a lot last time he went, and he didn't know if there would be extra gains this time.
The two said goodbye outside the hot pot restaurant; at this time, Li Chen had already discovered that the look in Youlan Youlan Xianzi Immortal Shu Yu's eyes when she looked at him had changed.
From looking at a junior, it became looking at a man.
At the same time, at the office of the Sect Affairs Department.
Reaching mealtime, many staff members here had already finished work, and some were on duty.
But what made the staff on duty feel strange was that in the room arranged by the Minister, there was an old man still waiting there; this was already off-duty time, and they no longer received sect members, so this wasn't appropriate, right?
However, that was arranged personally by the Minister, so they couldn't say anything, just sent a few people to keep an eye on the vicinity, so as not to let this "sect member" do something that didn't conform to the rules.
What they didn't know was that this so-called "sect member" was actually the famous Great General of the May Tian Ce Dynasty, Guo Guo Po Yun.
At Guo Guo Po Yun's level, those who knew him were already high-ranking officials and nobles; how could ordinary staff members have seen him?
The reason Guo Guo Po Yun was still there wasn't because he didn't want to leave, but because he didn't dare to leave.
Remember the last time he complained to Li Chen twice, he was put in confinement for seven days.
Today he was even suspecting whether His Majesty was testing him.
His Majesty let him wait here, and he really didn't dare to leave.
Lin Yue'e was busy with work; having just taken office, she had many things to deal with, and the files also needed to be organized personally.
After all, the Sect Affairs Department was a newly opened department of the May Tian Ce Dynasty, so the rules and regulations had to be perfected, and preparations had to be made to deal with dangers.
Only by doing the work here well could she be worthy of His Majesty's trust and promotion.
Almost at this point, Li Chen also just finished eating hot pot and came back.
Seeing Li Chen appear in the side hall, Guo Guo Po Yun stood up respectfully immediately, his back straight.
He lowered his eyes, not daring to look directly at the Imperial face, and even more so not daring to ask about His Majesty's whereabouts just now.
As a subject, he knew well that some things should not be asked and should not be known; this was the way of being a subject.
After all, he couldn't ask His Majesty: Your Majesty, how was the battle situation of picking up girls?
If His Majesty picked one up, that would be easy to say.
If he didn't pick one up, wouldn't he be walking directly into the muzzle of a gun?
Guo Guo Po Yun was very gossipy, but he didn't dare to inquire about everything.
As a close minister of the former Emperor, he knew many things, but he kept his mouth shut and hadn't leaked anything.
Being able to mix to this point, Guo Guo Po Yun wasn't a fool; this was his way of being an official.
Just at this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came.
Only to see Lin Yue'e hurriedly put down the files in her hand and walk over quickly.
She changed her usual capable style, stopped three steps away from Li Chen, and paid a respectful great salute: "Your subject pays respects to Your Majesty."
Li Chen waved his hand casually: "No need for formalities, how did the matter go?"
"Replying to Your Majesty, the various regulations of the Sect Affairs Department have been initially drafted, and the major sects are also very cooperative..."
Lin Yue'e was reporting in detail.
At the corner of the corridor, two staff members of the Sect Affairs Department were watching this scene in a daze.
The younger one lowered his voice and asked: "Who is that young sect cultivator? He can actually make the Minister so polite?"
The older one's face turned pale instantly, and he grabbed his colleague's sleeve: "Shh! Be careful what you say!"
He looked around nervously, and after confirming that no one noticed, he continued: "Minister Lin is His Majesty's confidant; when have you ever seen her be so respectful to nobles and high officials? Think again, at this age, with this kind of bearing..."
The young staff member suddenly widened his eyes: "You mean, he is..." Before he finished speaking, his mouth was covered tightly.
"Just know it!" The older staff member had cold sweat on his forehead. "Treat this kind of thing as if you didn't see it, let alone talk about it; if you guess wrong, you'll lose your head!"
The young staff member nodded repeatedly, and the two hurriedly lowered their heads and retreated, for fear of being noticed.
But before leaving, the young staff member still couldn't help but look back one more time; that young figure standing with his hands behind his back appeared exceptionally majestic in the sunset glow.
Is this our Emperor of the May Tian Ce Dynasty? Truly extraordinary!
The two of them would certainly guess that Li Chen was on an incognito visit, but they would just know this kind of thing themselves; who would dare to talk nonsense?
