Envoy (1)
After thinking about it, Lin Xiaoran called Dai Zhixin.
As soon as Dai Zhixin entered, before Lin Xiaoran could even speak, she spoke, “Is there someone from Jiuyou Mountain again?”
Lin Xiaoran looked at Dai Zhixin’s confident expression, and she couldn’t help but say, “You are really strange, you can predict everything, is it really possible that you have the ability to predict things?”
Dai Zhixin shook her head and strangely replied, “I don’t have the ability to predict, I just read the script in advance.”
Lin Xiaoran was at a loss.
Before she could ask what those words meant, Dai Zhixin snatched back the topic and said, “I think you should go see the envoy from Jiuyou Mountain, they can give you the answer you want.”
Lin Xiaoran nodded after pondering for a moment.
The envoy of Jiuyou Sacred Land, who had been left hanging for seven or eight days, finally met Lin Xiaoran, wife of the city lord of Wuling City, in the lobby of the City Lord Mansion.
The reason why the lobby was chosen was to reflect the layout of the City Lord Mansion.When Jiuyou Sacred Land offered to reconcile, Wuling City had left the envoy hanging for seven or eight days, and their intention had already been communicated.
If they still choose an inconspicuous side hall when receiving the envoy, they will appear inferior.
Many times, people in their position cannot think about problems blindly according to their own mood but have to consider the image of the forces behind them.
However, meeting guests in the lobby does not mean that their intention on the matter has completely changed.
The envoy sent by Xin Ruxiong is an Indistinguishable Dao realm cultivator, whose current position in Jiuyou Sacred Land is an Elder. Behind him, there are three Gold Core followers. Just looking at the realm, they can see how much importance Xin Ruxiong attaches to this matter.
As soon as the envoy saw Lin Xiaoran, he spoke, neither humble nor overbearing, “The envoy of Jiuyou Sacred Land, Gu Chuan, has met Mrs. Feng.”
Lin Xiaoran nodded, and said with a blank face, “Envoy, please take a seat.”
Gu Chuan sat down and was about to speak, but Lin Xiaoran spoke first, “I was supposed to meet the envoy seven days ago, but my husband’s eldest apprentice was seriously injured due to a conflict a few days ago. I was very anxious and worried so I really didn’t have the energy to deal with common affairs. It made the envoy wait for many days, I hope the envoy will not blame me.”
As soon as Lin Xiaoran spoke, she used Feng Lingxue’s injury as the reason why she had been ignoring the envoy for several days. The context could not be more obvious. Gu Chuan was not a fool, so he naturally heard the dissatisfaction in Lin Xiaoran’s words.
Gu Chuan smiled and said, “Madam is being too serious. My Jiuyou Sacred Land has also heard about this matter. For this reason, the Holy Lord specially asked me to bring me a special healing medicine from Jiuyou Sacred Land, hoping to help Madam’s worries.”
After speaking, Gu Chuan took a medicine bottle from his storage ring and handed it to Lin Xiaoran.
Lin Xiaoran was playing with the medicine bottle, with a half-smiling expression on her face, “Jiuyou Sacred Land’s deep friendship moved me very much. I just don’t know if this medicine is a meeting gift, or is it an apology?”
Feng Shao would not have said this, but Lin Xiaoran would. Because behind her stood not only Wuling City, but also Yunjian Pavilion. As Yunjian Pavilion’s little princess, it is reasonable to have a bad temper, right? ɌΆNО฿Ëꞩ
Gu Chuan smiled bitterly and said, “Whether madam believes it or not, Liao Zhengyuan really has nothing to do with Jiuyou Sacred Land. The Holy Lord doesn’t understand why Liao Zhengyuan would accuse our Jiuyou Sacred Land, but I think this person has bad intentions. The Holy Lord believes that Liao Zhengyuan may have been instigated by someone to sow discord between Jiuyou Sacred Land and Wuling City. However, we believe the madam presumably won’t fall for such little tricks.”
Gu Chuan calmly and directly shifted the responsibility to a non-existent “instigator” and finally said such a sentence in a positive and derogatory manner. That obviously meant that if you really believed Liao Zhengyuan’s words, you would be too stupid.
Lin Xiaoran didn’t really understand this kind of negotiation skills, but she could hear the meaning of Gu Chuan’s words. She frowned, and said coldly, “Don’t I know what the relationship between our Wuling City and Jiuyou Sacred Land is? How about the envoy explain it to me?”
Gu Chuan said calmly, “Madam, although there were some misunderstandings and conflicts between our Jiuyou Sacred Land and Wuling City before, there is a saying that says ‘it is better to make friends than enemies.’ Our Holy Lord has been committed to working and cooperating with all major parties since he took office to make up for the faults of the former Holy Lord and Holy Son. Wuling City is naturally one of the forces we wish to extend our friendship.”
Lin Xiaoran didn’t believe Gu Chuan’s words. Anyway, she did not need to take them seriously at all. After all, Xin Ruxiong was also present in the conflict five years ago!
Lin Xiaoran suddenly felt that such a conversation was quite tiring, so she cut straight to the point and said, “The purpose of the envoy’s visit this time should not be that simple, right? The envoy might as well speak frankly. As the wife of the city lord of Wuling City, I can still decide on some things.”
Gu Chuan smiled and said, “Since Madam said so, I will tell you frankly.”
After a pause, Gu Chuan said solemnly, “Our Holy Lord has a junior sister named Su Ling’er, who is in her boudoir and has yet to marry. Miss Su yearns for and tells the people around her that the person she wants to marry in this life must be a hero.”
Hearing this, Lin Xiaoran asked suspiciously, “What does the envoy mean? Could it be that she wants to get married?”
