Beauty and the Bodyguard

 The selection of rules is still ongoing.

Lin Yi, who was the center of attention, remained calm.

On the other side, Chang Sun Sheng was dying of anxiety.

 Until just now, he had had the last hope for the other Baizi, but his expectations finally came to nothing.

 Even if the fortune bonus of the same points is divided, these Baizi would still prefer to choose other princes compared to his Protectorate.

Finally, when the price given by Lin Yi soared to twenty points, Changsun Sheng finally couldn't hold it any longer.

 “Twenty points, I agree.”

Lin Yi was slightly startled when he received the message.

He thought that the other party would hold on for a while longer, at least until the last three rounds before agreeing. It seemed that the young man was more decisive than he expected.

Seeing that Lin Yi didn't respond, Changsun Sheng suddenly became anxious: "The price we just agreed on, don't you want to raise the price again?"

 He was really scared.

In case Lin Yi came again at this moment, he had no place to cry. The key is that at this step, he was really a lamb to be slaughtered, and there was no room for choice.

Lin Yi sent a message: "Young Master, I misunderstood. I, Lin Yi, never fail to keep my words."

“Since the young master has made up his mind, let’s make an oath.”

Honestly speaking, since it is not easy to sign a contract in public at this time, a heartfelt oath is the best choice.

Changsun Sheng couldn't help but hesitate again.

He had just had the idea of ​​getting lucky, trying to fool Lin Yi first, and then slowly start wrangling the matter later, paying an outsider 20 points of luck dividends for nothing. He was really heartbroken.

 It’s a pity that Lin Yi would not make such a stupid mistake.

Lin Yi waited for three seconds and reminded: "If it's a little later, it will be twenty-two o'clock. Young Master must be mentally prepared."

Chang Sun Sheng was very excited.

 In the end, he had no choice but to make a vow with Lin Yi and set a twenty-point cooperation contract.

Swearing in his heart that the verification was correct, Lin Yi nodded slightly.

In fact, from his point of view, signing a contract with Chang Sun Sheng at this time is not actually maximizing interests. If he is more ruthless, he can delay it until the end and force the other party to give up thirty points.

 It’s just that this is not Lin Yi’s style.

If anything is too late, fate will inevitably end early.

 Leave room for the other party and also leave room for yourself.

 After all, apart from the luck dividends, what Lin Yi really values ​​​​is actually the follow-up cooperation with the Protectorate.

In terms of foundation and strength, the Protector's Palace is far from being comparable to the seven royal palaces, and this is what Lin Yi values.

With his personal ability, if he is interested in joining, at least half of the seven princes will be willing to extend an olive branch.

 But in that case, the gap in hard power between the two sides would be too great, and Lin Yi would inevitably become a vassal of the palace.

 Looking at the Protector's Office, there is the possibility of equal cooperation.

The death of the previous Lord Protector was indeed a huge blow to the Lord Protector's office, and it was inevitable that he would be marginalized by the core circle of power and enter a downward spiral.

But the foundation of the Protector's Mansion's hundreds of years of operation is here. For Lin Yi, who has just arrived, this foundation alone is of incomparable and huge value.

 The other princes may not be able to give you the same thing, but none of them is as ideal as the Protectorate.

What's more, Rule No. 151 itself has huge investment value in Sinan Jie's tips, and you will definitely not lose money if you take it!

 At the same time, the queen and everyone have successfully bound the rules. Under Lin Yi's personal mediation, everyone, including Xu Anshan, who had just woken up, not only chose the established core rules, but also received good dividends.

As long as nothing unexpected happens, everyone will be able to gain a foothold in the Inner Court just by relying on this luck dividend.

 In the end, Lin Yi was the last one and successfully bound Rule 151.

 “Oh, it’s okay to be picky and picky.”

The King of Chu’s playful eyes fell on Changsun Sheng.

 At this point, all the rules have been selected and the Hundred Sons Plan has been successfully completed.

As for the next ending, we have to wait for the results of the cleansing of the rules of the gods to come out. According to the internal intelligence of the Inner Court, we will see the results within three days.

 After the dispersion of the dynasty, the restrictions on Baizi were lifted and they were invited to banquets by their respective masters.

The same goes for the queen and everyone else.

Lin Yi is naturally happy to see this happen.

 The rules he gave everyone to choose from were all small princes, but this did not mean that there was no value in making friends.

  In any case, these are the core strata of the Inner Royal Court. If their power can be leveraged, it will be of great benefit to Lin Yi's future development.

Lin Yi himself was also invited.

However, it was not from the Duke Protector's Palace, nor from the Prince of Han's Palace, but from the eldest princess Zhou Youshi.

Led by the chamberlain, Lin Yi came to the inner garden of the palace.

In the pavilion, Zhou Youshi was dressed in a rich dress. Her originally gentle temperament paired with the luxurious dress made her look even more charming, but she also had some inexplicable attributes of a married woman that belonged to a palace lady.

Lin Yi's eyes did not stay on her, but fell on Emperor Zhou who was sitting in the middle of the seat.

 “Lin Yi pays homage to His Majesty, and pays homage to Her Royal Highness the Princess.”

Before Zhou Tianzi could speak, Zhou Youshi had already come up to him and couldn’t wait to ask: “How is Ma Xiaozhu doing recently?”

 “She’s pretty good.”

Lin Yi was stunned. He didn't expect that Zhou Youshi and Ma Xiaozhu had such a good relationship, and they didn't get along for a few days, right?

Zhou Youshi then asked: "When will you return to Jinghai Enclave? Can you take me with you?"

Lin Yi: “…”

He is the master of the Jinghai Enclave. It is not difficult to bring someone back to the Jinghai Enclave. However, this seems not to be the focus of today, right?

Zhou Tianzi coughed twice and said, "Young Shi, please step aside first. I have something to discuss with Lin Yi."

Today it was Zhou Youshi who was nominally invited, but in fact he wanted to summon Lin Yi privately, but there were too many people inside and outside the palace, so he didn't want to make too much of a fuss.

In fact, even so, his private meeting with Lin Yi had already reached the ears of the Seven Kings immediately.

Just through this action, all parties have determined that Lin Yi has turned to Emperor Zhou.

 Otherwise, anyone who is a little sensitive will choose to avoid suspicion at this time.

Zhou Youshi was a little unhappy, but in the end he said hello to Lin Yi and obediently retreated to the pavilion on the other side.

 Zhou Tianzi waved back and said, "What do you think about the matter of Marquis Wu?"

Such a straightforward and straightforward approach surprised Lin Yi.

It seems that this puppet emperor is still very enterprising.

 It's just that the way he deals with others is a bit rough and he's not sophisticated enough.

If it were other established princes, they would at least win over Lin Yi first. Even if they knew that there was an element of acting, they still had to take the necessary steps, otherwise there would be hidden dangers.
