Beauty and the Bodyguard

Some things cannot withstand consideration at all. Once you fall into conspiracy theories, the final result is that you will be trapped in them and cannot extricate yourself.

Just like now, the more King Han looked at Lin Yi, the more cunning and cunning he became.

King Han tentatively asked: "If our King Han's palace is not considered and Mr. Lin makes his own choice, I wonder which rule Mr. Lin will choose?"

Lin Yi was very honest: "If I were asked to choose, I would choose No. 151."

The King of Han was stunned when he heard this and couldn't help but ask: "Have you ever had contact with the Protector?"

 No. 151 is not affiliated with any of the seven royal palaces, but is the core asset of the Protectorate.

The Protector of the Country is a well-known name outside, but in front of the seven palaces, it has no deterrent power at all, and there is no secret at all.

If the previous Lord Protector was still using his strength and reputation, he would still be able to maintain some dignity.

But now that the previous Lord Protector has passed away, the newly appointed young prince has no strength, no skills, and is just a showman. Naturally, he will not be taken seriously by these real top figures.

I never expected that Lin Yi would take the initiative to name the Protector of the Country.

Lin Yi said calmly: "There is no direct contact."

 Wang Han narrowed his eyes.

  If there is no direct contact, then there is indirect contact.

To a certain extent, this is true.

Lin Yi has indeed never had any dealings with the Lord Protector, but he has had a lot of dealings with Ning Yuqi, and Ning Yuqi is the wife of the new Lord Protector.

 One more word, now Ning Yuqi has been expelled from the inner court and fell into the hands of Guan Zhengxuan.

Before the Hundred Sons Project started, Guan Zhengxuan specially asked Lin Yi to meet him.

Without him, although Ning Yuqi is just an idle man, he might be able to put it to use after Lin Yi enters the inner court.

 Now is the opportunity.

 Hong Kong King was doubtful about this answer.

Did this guy throw a smoke popper on purpose?

If Lin Yi has second thoughts, the ones most questionable are naturally the other seven kings.

As for a mere Protector of the Country, his family has nothing to offer except No. 151, which is the second core artificial rule. How can he be qualified to compete with the Prince of Han’s Palace?

However, at this point of testing, King Han was basically certain that Lin Yi did have second thoughts.

 I couldn’t help but feel regretful.

Had he known this, he should not have given away the Jinghai Enclave in the first place!

 To be honest, Han Changshi and Han Wu are the ones most to blame when things have come to this point.

If it weren't for the instigation of these two people behind his back, he wouldn't have made up his mind and spent all his money to win over Lin Yi.

Now it's better, all the water in the bamboo basket was in vain, and I made wedding clothes for others for nothing!

 The King of Han did not continue the spiritual transmission.

On the other hand, Lin Yi had no idea that the other party had so many inner dramas. One second he was still thinking about letting Li win over him, but the next second he had made a 180-degree turn and was holding back his energy to get revenge on him.

From Lin Yi's point of view, this opportunity to select rules is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but as long as the conflict is not serious, he is still willing to cooperate with Prince Han's Mansion.

 After all, the other party did give him a solid show of kindness before, and Lin Yi would not deny this favor.

 But the prerequisite for cooperation is that you cannot bring yourself into the pit.

Those three rules provided by King Han, every one of them counts, and it is obvious that they cannot escape this round of rules purge by the gods. Lin Yi really wants to agree, unless his brain is full of water.

You must know that after man-made rules of this scale are deeply bound, once the rules go wrong, the bound carrier will inevitably be affected, and there is no chance of escape.

After holding back for a moment, King Han suddenly sent a message again: "Those three human rules are very important to me. If Mr. Lin has concerns, you can consider letting your people take over. I can assure you that I will never treat them badly." ."

 The implication was that he still wanted to give Lin Yi a chance and try again in the end.

Without him, although Lin Yi was new here and had no foundation in the inner court, his performance in repelling the Exile Emperor in person was truly domineering.

Just because of that scene, he is destined to be a ruthless person who no one can underestimate.

Not to mention that even the Jinghai Enclave had been given away before. For the sake of sunk costs alone, King Han was not willing to fall out with Lin Yi.

As long as you control the Queen and the others, you will naturally control Lin Yi in disguise.

Lin Yi glanced at him and replied seriously: "King Han, you may have misunderstood. The people who came with me this time are all my brothers, partners, relatives and friends. I will not let them take risks."

King Han immediately understood: "I understand, I need to pay more, right?"

　　　…”

Lin Yi choked for a moment, and replied with a wry smile: "That's not what I meant. It's the same thing. Those three rules are really not good for the future. I suggest King Han really choose carefully."

King Han's face immediately turned completely cold: "This is the end of what I have said, and the bottom line has been made clear. Please give Mr. Lin serious consideration."

The exchange of spiritual consciousness between the two people sounds long, but in fact it is only a short moment.

In the eyes of others, it was just Lin Yi and King Han exchanging glances.

 However, just when everyone thought that Lin Yi would speak for the Han Palace, Lin Yi unexpectedly looked at Sun Sheng, the Lord Protector.

 The eyes of the whole audience shifted.

Suddenly becoming the focus of the audience, Chang Sun Sheng couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

As the new Lord Protector, although he is qualified to stand here, his presence has always been very low and he is just a transparent person.

Normally, these big figures present, especially the high-ranking Seven Kings, would not even look at him, let alone focus on him.

Just when Changsun Sheng was feeling uneasy and confused at the same time, Lin Yi's voice suddenly sounded in his sea of ​​consciousness.

“Young Master, if I’m not wrong, Rule 151 belongs to you, the Protector of the Country. Do you have any intention of cooperating with me?”

Changsun Sheng was stunned.

He never expected that Lin Yi, who was number one on the list of 100 sons and the center of attention, would actually come to him!

 Immediately, I was overjoyed.

The children of the family that he had carefully arranged before had all been wiped out in the Hundred Sons Competition. He has been uneasy these days. If no one among the hundred children chooses his family's Rule 151, then he will protect the country. The future is really dark.

  After all, having no one to choose means not being able to catch the Hundred Sons Plan, and it means not being able to escape the rules of the gods.

What's even more terrible is that the Duke Protector's Office says that he has a great family and a great business, but now there is only this one heavyweight artificial rule that he can really use.

  In other words, once this sole core asset is gone, there is nothing.

 At that time, nothing will be left in his government but an empty name! (End of chapter)
