Chapter 2210 Sage, please give your orders
The night You Huan became Grand Secretary, he threw a lavish banquet at her Su Mao Qing Xi restaurant, celebrating for days and nights. From then on, every prominent figure in Mu Du knew she was Lord You's new favorite.
In the past two years, she has not only built up Cang Yan's intelligence network, but also done a lot for You Huan.
As the chief minister, You Huan often had many matters that were inconvenient for him to handle personally.
“Many wealthy merchants from the Mu Kingdom frequently travel to and from Lingxu City. It would be too dangerous for you to go directly to Lingxu City with this face.” Mei Wu Niang’s beauty makes her even more memorable. “Lingxu City is full of hidden talents. Simply changing your appearance with the Mirage Pearl is not enough. I need to find someone to use the Dao Gui technique to make some adjustments to your face.”
Mei Wuniang couldn't help but gently touch her face, a little worried: "Won't I become ugly?"
She cares most about her appearance.
Her stunning beauty is her most effective weapon.
"Don't worry, you'll be as beautiful as ever." He Lingchuan has so many talented people under his command that he dares to make such a boast. If all else fails, there's always Dong Rui. "Just make some minor changes and remove the original moles and scars, and you'll be even more beautiful than before."
His word was law, and Mei Wuniang was only slightly relieved after receiving his assurance: "That's good."
"Also, during the facial care period, you need to take the Dingxiang Pill for sixty days."
"What is it used for?"
“Permanently change your body odor.” He Lingchuan was always incredibly meticulous in his actions. “A person’s body odor usually doesn’t change, making it easy for animals and monsters to recognize. If you want to become a completely different person, simply changing your face isn’t enough.”
"Also, although you left Moudu without permission, you'd better give You Huan an explanation. This man is very suspicious. You are one of his close associates and you have his secrets and evidence. Now that you have suddenly disappeared, he will definitely investigate you thoroughly." Don't dig too deep and dig up all of Cang Yan's network of connections in Moudu.
Mei Wu Niang remained silent, only blinking at him repeatedly.
He Lingchuan laughed and continued, "Alright, so Mei Wuniang was attacked by a monster in another place and unfortunately died. Where did you go on this trip?"
“Liutang County in Qizhou of the Mu Kingdom,” Mei Wuniang added, “is located on the eastern border of the Mu Kingdom, and there are indeed large forests outside the county.”
"Yes, I'll find someone to arrange it for you." He Lingchuan asked her, "Before you left Moudu, you didn't transfer any businesses or sell any shops, did you?"
“Of course not. I was afraid You Huan would become suspicious, so I brought some valuables and silver with me as travel expenses.” Mei Wu Niang said with a pained expression, “I don’t know who will benefit from the shops and assets I’ve worked so hard to save over the past two years.”
As she spoke, she looked at He Lingchuan with bright, watery eyes, hoping he would make a move. A normal man at this moment would definitely pat his chest and assure him: Don't worry, I'll make it up to you.
However, the Nine Nether Emperor, who possessed wealth throughout the four seas, dismissed it lightly: "It doesn't matter; money is nothing but an external thing."
Stingy, so stingy. Mai Miao gave him a resentful look.
It was something external to him, but not to her.
That's it.
"Since the Emperor and Sage have thought of everything so thoughtfully..." Mei Wuniang stretched, already somewhat eager to try, "Lingxu City is so big, where should I go?"
He Lingchuan was silent for a moment, then crossed his hands on the table: "Didn't you want to challenge yourself with something difficult?"
"Yes."
"Do you dare to go to this most profound and unfathomable place in the world, yet also a den of filth and depravity?"
Mei Wu Niang knew perfectly well that this was a provocation, yet she found it quite appealing: "Why wouldn't I dare? What place are you talking about?"
"Heavenly Palace."
Mei Wu Niang's eyebrows were arched high, and her beautiful eyes were strikingly bright.
The legendary earthly abode of the gods, and the heavenly palace that even the demon emperor must respectfully bow to.
After a long pause, she smiled and said, "Okay!"
"The Heavenly Palace's Chief Envoy, Du Yun, is very old. Ever since he rode the giant Qi Beast in the great battle against the Fire Spirit Ju Ju, his health has been deteriorating, and he is now on the verge of death. He must find a successor for the position of Chief Envoy as soon as possible, otherwise, once he passes away, the Heavenly Palace will be in chaos."
The Heavenly Palace is a transcendent entity that reigns supreme over the entire Bega. If it falls into turmoil, Lingxu City will also suffer.
"The position of chief envoy is so important, doesn't the Heavenly Palace have any candidates?"
"Originally there were three. One died in the Panlong Desert in the west, one died a few years ago in the Shanjin Plain, and the other was found to have moral failings last year and was personally demoted by the Heavenly Demon. So the succession of the mastermind has suddenly become the biggest problem for the Heavenly Palace."
He Lingchuan took a sip of wine to moisten his throat: "I received news that the Heavenly Palace has now nominated two more candidates, one named Hou Tianyu and the other named Lu Yongyan. Neither of them is very experienced, but both are competitive and are trying their best to impress the old master."
Mei Wu Niang blinked: "That sounds interesting. Which one do you recommend I choose?"
He Lingchuan chuckled: "In these extraordinary times, they all have to be careful with their words and actions. They wouldn't dare touch a troublemaker like you."
This was blatant flattery, which Consort Mei accepted with a smile.
"So what is my goal?"
"Enter the Heavenly Palace first, and act according to the circumstances. If you can become a Lamp-Adding Maiden, you will learn a lot of secrets." He Lingchuan sat up straight, his face serious. "You must remember what I am about to say."
"Yes!" Mei Wuniang said with a smile, "Please give your orders, Your Majesty."
"Staying in the Heavenly Palace means staying under the very nose of the Heavenly Demon, which is not as easy as getting along with You Huan. You must always be careful, listen more and speak less, and unless there is a major event, do not contact Cang Yan."
"Does the Heavenly Demon keep a close watch on the Heavenly Palace?" Mei Wu Niang pondered. "How do the people in that Heavenly Palace manage to harbor such filth and corruption?"
He Lingchuan remained silent, simply watching her quietly.
"Alright, alright, I know you're worried about me." Mei Wuniang stopped arguing with him. "If I infiltrate now, what's the opportunity?"
"The Heavenly Palace will select another batch of maids within six months, aged between fourteen and seventeen, some from official families and some from commoner backgrounds." He Lingchuan examined her face closely. "The girls in Lingxu City are quite precocious, and your bone structure makes you look young, so it won't be a problem for you to impersonate a seventeen-year-old girl."
Mei Wu Niang had a small face to begin with, and her clear, bright eyes looked exceptionally pure. She also practiced the Illusion Sect's Breaking the Cocoon technique, making her skin incredibly smooth and flawless, and every strand of her hair radiating vitality. With just a casual expression, she resembled a naive, innocent fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, untouched by the world's complexities.
"Thank you for the compliment." The Nine Nether Emperor was getting better and better at praising people. "So, have you chosen a birthplace for me yet?"
"I'll give it to you within seven days." He Lingchuan thought for a moment and then told her to ask the tavern waiter for pen and ink.
He took out a piece of paper from his pocket and quickly began to write.
Mei Wu Niang was curious and wanted to go over and take a look, but He Lingchuan had already finished writing and waved his left hand forward: "Sit down."
