Chapter 231 - 52: War on the Horizon? Political Marriage

After Xie Ling’Er left.

Qu Sisi, wearing a new pair of earrings, came to stand in front of Ye Liuyun.

"Do they look good?"

The material of these earrings was special, crystal clear, and Qu Sisi fell in love with them at first sight.

Looking at Qu Sisi like this, Ye Liuyun also smiled and nodded.

"Of course, they look good, but it’s not the earrings, it’s you who looks good!"

"Hee hee!"

Ye Liuyun’s compliment made Qu Sisi laugh with joy.

After leaving Prince Jin’s Mansion, the smile on Qu Sisi’s face was noticeably more than before.

In terms of mentality, she was becoming more and more like a little girl.

"Master!"

At this moment, Sheng Lanzhi glanced over.

Noticing her gaze, Ye Liuyun knew there was something she wanted to discuss with him.

Realizing this, Xing’Er spoke softly.

"Husband, Sisi and I will go and put these gift boxes away!"

Although Ye Liuyun never deliberately hid anything in front of them, Xing’Er’s understanding and obedience made Ye Liuyun very fond of her.

After the two women left.

Ye Liuyun then turned to Sheng Lanzhi.

"In the future, if there’s anything you want to say, just say it directly. There’s nothing to hide within the family!"

"I understand!"

Understanding Ye Liuyun’s intention, Sheng Lanzhi immediately nodded.

She also noticed Ye Liuyun’s affection for Xing’Er and the others.

"It’s not that I deliberately want to hide things from the two sisters, but Xie Ling’Er is not a simple woman, I’m afraid the two sisters are too naive, and if they continue to interact with her, they might be deceived!"

That’s why only someone who is perceptive can recognize someone pretentious.

Sheng Lanzhi was already smart, so when Xie Ling’Er first arrived at the mansion, Sheng Lanzhi saw through her immediately.

This is definitely not a woman as simple as she appears on the surface.

Ye Liuyun did not deny this.

There are many children in the Xie family, and for Xie Ling’Er to gain control of a thriving building in the Xie Clan’s business as a woman, she certainly isn’t a simple character.

"Although Xie Ling’Er is not simple, there’s no need to worry. The Xie Clan’s business is indeed powerful, but it hasn’t reached the level of having eyes and ears everywhere!"

The Xie Clan’s business has indeed befriended several Grandmasters, even Grandmasters of the highest order.

Some were even invested in by the Xie Clan during their early days and grew along with it, forming even stronger bonds.

But even so, they can’t intimidate Ye Liuyun.

The Xie Clan’s main family is quite far from the Great Qian Dynasty, separated by several dynasties.

As long as Xie Ling’Er is alive, even if they offend her, there’s nothing to fear.

Truly doubtful.

The Xie Clan’s main family would send a Grandmaster over to avenge just for Xie Ling’Er.

"I understand!"

Ye Liuyun’s words made Sheng Lanzhi smile slightly.

The name of the Xie Clan’s business was something Sheng Lanzhi had heard of, and in the past, she wouldn’t have had any interactions with such a behemoth.

Even if she bent over backward to offer gifts and build connections, she probably wouldn’t receive any response.

But now.

The other side was willingly offering gifts and resources.

And all this was because Ye Liuyun was a Grandmaster Martial Artist.

The more it was this way, the more Sheng Lanzhi felt her initial choice was a wise one, otherwise, she wouldn’t even know where she would be buried now.

"The Xie Clan’s business has abundant resources, if I had the resources of the Xie Clan, it would be really easy for me to start a business association!"

Though Sheng Lanzhi had already found some supply sources herself.

But they certainly can’t compare to those of the Xie Clan.

"I’ll leave these matters to you!"

The idea of starting a business association was Sheng Lanzhi’s, and Ye Liuyun would not interfere.

After all, if the business association was truly established, the benefits would include him as well.

So regarding Sheng Lanzhi wanting to use his name for business ventures, Ye Liuyun wouldn’t stop her, for if she succeeded, it would be her own capability.

"I understand!"

,,,

For the next half a month.

Everything was peaceful in the Imperial City, with no major events happening.

The most that happened were a few murder cases in the Imperial City, but such events were common, usually resolved on the same day they occurred.

Most of the cases were investigated by Ye Liuyun.

It’s not because Ye Liuyun was particularly diligent.

But because Ye Liuyun discovered.

That everyone involved in these cases seemed to have some special Talent Entry, which, though not necessarily very useful, were certainly peculiar.

Things like keen scent recognition, being exceptionally strong and energetic, have become almost commonplace.

These types of Talent Entries might not directly increase Ye Liuyun’s strength, but their assistance had surprisingly good effect.

Anyway, with an attitude of not letting any opportunity go to waste.

If there was one Ye Liuyun would take it.

As long as it wasn’t a negative Talent Entry, Ye Liuyun wanted them all.

"Ha~"

That day.

Ye Liuyun yawned, awakened by Xing’Er.

Looking at the well-behaved Xing’Er dressing him in his official uniform, Ye Liuyun sighed helplessly.

"Alas, why are there no cases today?"

No cases today meant having to attend the morning court session.

A truly harsh day for a wage worker, having to wake up before dawn to go to work.

Ye Liuyun’s lament made Xing’Er unable to hold back a laugh.

After seriously adjusting Ye Liuyun’s collar, she smiled and said.

"Fewer cases are good too, that way Husband won’t be in any danger!"

Xing’Er was also aware that her husband was already a Grandmaster, very powerful.
