According to tradition, the Inner Court would arrange a big martial arts competition every year, and the seven great kings ‘mansions would participate.

In the past years, the King Zhao Residence was the only one that was not at a disadvantage in front of the King Qin Residence.

If even Zhao Wang didn’t dare to get involved in Wu Wudi’s matter, Lin Yi would have to think twice about whether or not he should get involved in this mess.

“By the way, why did you fall for the Duke Protector?” Zhao Feng asked.

Lin Yi blinked.” His house offered the highest price, so I naturally chose his house. Is there a problem?”

“Do you believe that?” Zhao Feng asked helplessly.

She had spent quite a bit of time with Lin Yi, and she knew that he was a man of foresight. This was such an important opportunity, and he definitely wouldn’t choose the House of Protectors just for luck.

“I’m looking for the Duke Protector’s House for a follow-up collaboration.” Lin Yi smiled.

“What cooperation?” Zhao Feng was instantly interested. Count me in.”

Lin Yi looked at her,” You’ve been working with me for so long in Divine Kingdom on land, but you didn’t get anything, right? Does your family have any objections?”

Speaking of which, Zhao Feng had planted quite a number of people in the Hundred Seedlings Plan, but unfortunately, none of them could survive the Hundred Seedlings Competition.

Although the entire Prince Zhao Estate had already arranged for other core disciples, Zhao Feng’s side was only a supplementary plan. Even if it failed, it wouldn’t really affect the overall situation.

However, for Zhao Feng, she had been busy for so long, but in the end, she had failed. She was still a little shocked.

However, Zhao Feng did not mind.” Victory and defeat are common in a soldier. If I don’t have this awareness, what am I doing out here? I might as well hide in my boudoir and embroider.”

“Good realization.”

“To be honest, I do need your help with something.”

“Go ahead.” Zhao Feng’s eyes lit up.

“After the law crisis is over, I’ll need your help to sell some of the man-made rules I have. It’s best if you sell them on the black market.”

“Huh?”

” What?” Zhao Feng didn’t react for a moment.” The artificial rules that aren’t selected for the Hundred Seedlings Plan basically can’t survive the great calamity of the rules, right?”

“What if there’s a fish that slipped through the net?” Lin Yi smiled.

“It’s inevitable that there will be fish that slip through the net, but how can you be so lucky?”

Zhao Feng looked at Lin Yi again, but she still thought about it carefully.

” If you really have a fish that slipped through the net, after the disaster of the rules is over, the price will indeed be sky-high. At least before the rules reconstruction plan officially comes to fruition, if you seize a good opportunity to make a move, you can easily earn dozens of times the premium.”

” What?”  Zhao Feng paused for a moment and then said,” Selling it on the black market? You don’t want to be the one standing out?”

“I’ll be in a lot of trouble if I suddenly make a fortune with my identity,” Lin Yi nodded.

“That’s true.” Zhao Feng agreed.

“Agreed?” Lin Yi raised his glass.

Zhao Feng smiled and clinked her glass.” You eat the meat, and I’ll drink the soup. Let’s have a good cooperation.”

Tianyuan Restaurant.

Just like First-grade Restaurant, this was also one of the top places of consumption in the inner court, and its behind-the-scenes boss was the Chu royal residence.

In the private room on the top floor, Zhangsun Shengjing sat at the last seat.

As the dignified Duke Protector, his expression was filled with anxiety.

There was no other reason than that the person sitting opposite him was Lord Chu.

Even though he had succeeded to the position of Duke Protector, Zhangsun Sheng had never imagined that a small fry like him would one day be able to drink with the King of Chu.

“My family’s kids have a good relationship with you. This Prince has always treated you as a nephew.”

Lord Chu took the initiative to raise his wine glass.

” You’re so lucky!” Zhangsun Sheng stood up in fear and trepidation.” It’s my fortune to be taken care of by the King.”

After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.

“How much did you give Lin Yi?” Chu Wang smiled and took a sip.

Zhangsun Sheng was slightly taken aback.

This kind of private luck bonus ratio had always been a top secret.

However, he did not dare to play dumb in front of Lord Chu’s question. He could only answer honestly,”Twenty points.”

“What?”

Lord Chu exclaimed,”You gave him 20 points of luck as a bonus? He asked for so much, and you actually agreed?”

Zhangsun Sheng’s face was bitter.” I don’t want to agree either. But the situation is stronger than the person. There’s no other way.”

When he thought about it now, his heart still ached.

He was a Duke Protector’s Public House. Outsiders might say that he was a high-sounding person, but his core asset was only that one man-made rule. In the end, he had to give away 20% of the luck dividends. Who would be willing to accept that?

However, given the situation at that time, if he was unwilling to give up this 20%, he would not even be able to keep the remaining 80%.

If that really happened, the thousand people in the Duke Protector’s Public House would have to go to the northwest.

” Your father died early,” Lord Chu said earnestly.” If he were still alive, do you think he would agree to be extorted in such a situation?”

“I don’t think so.” Zhangsun Sheng hesitated.

The previous Duke Protector had a fiery temper and would rather break than bend. If the same thing had happened to him, he would have fallen out on the spot.

Of course, if the previous Duke Protector was still around, the Duke Protector’s Residence would not have fallen to such a state.

Lord Chu put down his wine cup and said faintly,” You’re still young. It’s not strange that you can’t grasp some things. But remember one thing. A duke cannot be humiliated, especially by those lowly people. This is our bottom line.”

“Otherwise, not only will you lose the face of the Duke Protector’s Public House, but you will also lose the face of all the dukes.”

“Little Cheng, you can’t go against all the dukes just because of a single mistake.”

Her words made Zhangsun Sheng break out in cold sweat.

Not to mention becoming the public enemy of the dukes, even if he had a hundred guts, he wouldn’t dare to provoke this King Chu sitting in front of him.

Zhangsun Sheng quickly said,” Your Majesty, please be wise. I don’t have the guts to do that. I’m really forced into a corner this time. I can only agree to Lin Yi’s request. If there’s even a chance, I won’t let him off easily!”

“If that’s the case, why don’t you just go back on your word?” Lord Chu raised his eyebrows.

“Ah?”

” What?” Zhangsun Sheng was stunned.” I made a vow to him. How can I go back on my word?”

He really wanted to go back on his word, but he did not have the courage. After all, the backlash of breaking a heart oath was not something to be trifled with.

If he were to go back on his word, he would not be able to bear the price even if the calamity of the laws had passed.
