I Just Won't Play By The Book



[ chosen quest completed. Reward: strength + 1]

When he saw the reward option, Jiang Beiran knew that this matter was over.

‘saved Sheng Kingdom again? It’s so boring being the emperor...’

After they finished talking about business.., yin Jianghong took a sip of tea and said, “Then you already understand the situation. This encirclement war will go on for a long time. It’s not a small trouble for you. If you need help, just let me know. I’ll transfer people to you.”

Guan Shian walked between the two of them and said to Jiang Beiran, “What is there to talk about with that old man? If you really encounter any difficulties, just tell me directly.”

“I understand.”Jiang Beiran cupped his hands toward the two big shots who were fighting to be his backer.

But he knew in his heart that the two of them were probably thinking of fattening up their own territories or territories that they had already taken a fancy to.

They did not compete with Guan Shi'an in this matter, yin Jianghong stood up and walked to the desk to look at the stack of books. “Letting you be the emperor was indeed the right choice. You are more adapted to this position than I thought. Also...”

Yin Jianghong suddenly turned to look at Jiang Beiran and said meaningfully, “You seem to have changed the layout of the Imperial Palace?”

“I’m Coming, I’m Coming.”

The moment Yin Jianghong asked this question, Jiang Beiran was even more certain that he was the reason why he had triggered the option to strengthen the 28-night ghost-locking formation in the palace.

After the 28-night ghost-locking formation had been strengthened overnight, there were people who came to challenge the formation every few days.

However, because the 28-night ghost-locking formation was a maze formation, it would not harm that person’s life. After that person challenged the formation several times and knew that he would never be able to break it, he left resentfully.

Now that Yin Jianghong asked this directly, it was simply admitting that that person was sent by him.

‘tsk... I like the confident look in your eyes that you’ve already discovered the truth.’

In order to cooperate with Yin Jianghong, Jiang Beiran revealed a shocked and uneasy look. He used his expression to ask, ‘cult master, why did you do this?’

He answered, “I did change the feng shui of the Imperial Palace. The previous feng shui arrangement was not very auspicious.”

Yin Jianghong was obviously very satisfied with Jiang Beiran’s eyes. He nodded and said, “I didn’t expect you to know about feng shui arrangement, Beiran. I’ve never heard you talk about it before.”

“It’s just some small tricks. It’s not worth mentioning.”

Yin jianghong laughed and said, “Beiran, you’re too modest. I think it’s not a small trick, but your ultimate skill, right?”

Guan Shi'an felt like he was an outsider, so he interrupted forcefully, “Little friend Jiang, do you know Feng Shui?”

“A little.”Jiang Beiran nodded.

Then Guan Shi'an looked at Yin Jianghong and said, “Since when do you know Feng Shui?”

Yin jianghong smiled and replied, “I know a lot more than you think.”

After saying that, Yin Jianghong pushed open the door of the study and turned to Jiang Beiran. “We brought you some gifts this time. Come out with me.”

“Gifts? I don’t believe you... You Old Man is very evil.”

After complaining, Jiang Beiran thought that it was unlikely that Yin Jianghong would end the topic of formations so easily. He was probably going to wait for Guan Shian to leave before explaining to him in private why he sent people to break into the imperial palace at night.

“I almost forgot about this. Haha, My Friend, you will definitely like this gift.”Guan Shian said and walked out of the study room.

Following the footsteps of the two, Jiang Beiran did not walk far before he found Yin Jianghong leading him to the west room of the bedroom.

“Bang!”Yin Jianghong pushed the door open. Jiang Beiran looked inside and found that there were twelve girls of all sizes standing inside. Each of them could be considered characters, and they were all slim and fat. Each of them had their own merits.

Seeing Yin Jianghong push the door open and enter, the twelve girls first shrank back in fear. Then, a girl in white stepped forward and looked at Jiang Beiran who was behind Yin Jianghong. She knelt down and said, “Greetings, your Majesty.”

The other girls followed suit when they saw Yin Jianghong and knelt down together. Only a little girl who was about the age of a child had a puzzled look on her face. She blinked her big eyes and sized up the three people in front of her.

“Ling ‘er, kneel down quickly.”At this moment, another little girl beside her hurriedly pressed her down on the ground.

“Hiss...”

After taking a deep breath, Jiang Beiran looked at Yin Jianghong and asked, “Cult master, they are... ?”

After hearing this, Yin Jianghong revealed the expression he had when he went to Yuxiu Palace that day, he smiled and said, “I heard from Yaoyao that you don’t seem to be interested in those women in Deng Bo’s harem. I thought that you probably like women who are still intact, so I helped you search for some. How about it? This venerable one treats you quite well, right?”

“Sect master Yin, let’s not talk nonsense. Who are they?”

Although Yin Jianghong’s expression was spot-on and his tone was sincere, one of the twelve girls looked to be only three years old! No matter how inhumane it was, it was impossible for him to have any improper thoughts towards a three-year-old girl, right?

Seeing that Jiang Beiran was not fooled, Yin Jianghong clicked his tongue and said, “If I had known earlier, I would have hidden that little girl first. These twelve girls are all Deng Bo’s daughters. In the past, they were princesses, but now it’s up to you to decide what to do with them.”

Looking at Jiang Beiran’s incomprehensible expression, Yin Jianghong sighed, yin Jianghong explained, “When we came to take Deng Bo away, we also took his children away. Now that Deng Bo has been punished, these children should have gone with him.”

Speaking of this, Yin Jianghong looked at Guan Shi'an beside him.
