Chapter 854: Communication Rules with Qi Lin
"Ugh...A-choo!"
The Master was walking alone on the quiet street late at night when he suddenly sneezed for some unknown reason.
He frowned and looked around, but didn't notice anything unusual.
"Strange, is it because it's the beginning of spring in Shangshu and the weather is still a little cold?"
The Grand Tutor tightened his official robe.
"You are the Taifu of Yan Country?"
A cold female voice suddenly sounded on the street.
The Master's eyes narrowed, and he turned his head to look, only to find that a girl had appeared without his noticing.
"White hair, golden eyes... Miss Qi Lin?" the Grand Tutor asked.
Qi Lin stepped forward, came in front of the tutor, looked him up and down, and found that he matched Qi Yan's description completely.
"Come with me." Qi Lin said coldly.
"Where?"
"Up the mountain."
"Why?"
Seeing that the tutor did not move and instead kept asking questions, Qi Lin could not help but pursed the corners of her lips.
She said calmly: "Qi Yan told me that I only need to take you up the mountain, and it doesn't matter what means I use."
Tutor: "..."
Very good, no one has dared to speak threatening words to him in this tone for many years.
The Master straightened his cuffs and raised his chin slightly:
"Miss Qilin, please go first."
Seeing that the old man agreed, Qi Lin didn't bother to care whether his arrogance was forced or he had it in mind, and turned around to lead the way.
The Taifu only felt that he had punched into empty space, and felt awkward for a while.
Then he shook his head with a wry smile, put away his aura, put his hands behind his back, and slowly followed Qi Lin.
This little girl is interesting.
The few times she attacked clearly showed that her strength was definitely at the level of a top-notch warrior in this land, but she was extremely low-key.
It seemed that as long as Qi Yan didn't arrange her actions, this person would disappear on this land.
Is this some kind of protection method of Qi Yan, or part of some kind of plan?
The Taifu couldn't help but become excited.
"Miss Qi Lin, can I ask you something?" asked the Grand Tutor.
Qi Lin was walking ahead on his own, seemingly not hearing anything.
The Grand Tutor was not surprised by this and continued to ask:
"There is an official from the Supervisory Department of our Yan Country who is currently staying in Rhodes Island. I wonder if Lin Qingyan... oh, I mean Jingzhe, how she is doing these days?"
Qi Lin ignored him.
Tutor: "..."
Very good, no one has dared to ignore him like this for many years.
The Master took a breath, licked his face and continued:
"In fact, I have also arranged for someone to inform Jingzhe of Shang Shu's situation. She should be coming overnight."
Qi Lin ignored him.
Grand Tutor: “…………”
Very good... Never mind, I’m really not in a good mood.
The Master had to admit that he was a little frustrated.
This time he did not speak in a hurry, but frowned and thought hard for a long time.
Seeing Qi Lin leading him through the streets and alleys, and the distant sky already showing a hazy light, the Grand Tutor spoke again unwillingly:
"I have also arranged for someone to investigate the giant beast that you and your sister came to Yan Country to look for."
He deliberately stopped talking halfway, waiting for Qi Lin to be interested and start a conversation.
But Qi Lin still ignored him.
Grand Tutor: “………………”
No, what's wrong with this little girl?
"Didn't your brother tell you not to be easily tricked by me?" The tutor said helplessly.
Qi Lin seemed to have suddenly triggered something, and finally turned around and answered:
"He didn't tell me anything."
The Master blinked, and caught a glimpse of inspiration.
"Your brother is unrivaled in strength and has a brain that can plan for the world. I have admired him for a long time." The Grand Tutor asked tentatively.
"Yeah." Qi Lin responded again.
The Master took a deep breath.
He got it!
This girl seems to pay no attention to anything other than topics related to Qi Yan!
"You and your brother have an enviable relationship."
The Grand Tutor sighed with a wry smile, then quickened his pace and walked to Qi Lin's side.
After saying this, he clearly saw Qi Lin's wolf ears twitch nimbly.
The Master was now certain of his own speculation, but he had no choice but to smile bitterly.
"Speaking of your brother, I heard that he had a fight with Huijie in front of the inn during the day."
The Grand Tutor said casually, "To be honest, I expected Hui Jie and Qi Yan to get along well, but I was surprised to hear that the two of them actually wrestled in public and Qi Yan was not angry at all. This is still a bit beyond my expectations."
Qi Lin:?
"Xi's ink is still not good enough." Qi Lin said without any reason.
The Master was startled by these words.
He wanted to continue speaking, but found that Qi Lin's expression had turned cold, as if she didn't want to be disturbed.
However, facing Qi Lin's attitude, the Grand Tutor felt as if he had grasped something key.
He spoke again and tested the issue, "You don't like other girls touching your brother?"
Qi Lin moved for the first time and turned to look at the tutor.
With a rare firmness in her golden eyes, Qi Lin said seriously:
"He's too stupid to understand some things. In order to prevent him from being taken advantage of, I have to protect him."
Taifu: ????? ????? ????
Did this girl really not get anything wrong?
Qi Yan, being taken advantage of by a group of little girls?
What's up with this damn protectiveness?
For the first time, Taifu felt that his brain was not enough.
He lowered his head and rubbed his temple. When he looked up again, he found that Qi Lin had withdrawn his gaze and continued to move forward with a natural expression, as if the speech he had just made against Tian Gang was as natural as eating when hungry.
Just when he couldn't help but want to complain, Qi Lin suddenly stopped.
The Grand Tutor looked up in surprise, only to find that he had been so engrossed in chatting with Qi Lin that he had completely forgotten to observe his surroundings.
But now, the Master realized that they were not walking on the road leading to the mountains.
"Miss Qilin, this is Minister Ning's residence, right?" The Grand Tutor asked in confusion, "Aren't we going to the mountain?"
Qi Lin ignored him.
The Master patted his head and realized that he had forgotten the key again.
"Did your brother ask you to come and see Minister Ning?" he asked again.
"Not only Miss Ning, but also Master Shen and Master Bai Tian." Qi Lin said Qi Yan's instructions openly.
"Are these people also your brother's pawns?"
"He didn't say."
The Master was surprised again when he got this answer.
He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Even if it's you, your brother won't reveal the details of his layout?"
"No, I know what he's going to do."
Qi Lin went forward and knocked on the door.
The Master's eyes could not help but light up. He tried his best to suppress the joy in his heart and cautiously asked:
"With your brother's strategy, can you really understand his entire plan?"
Qi Lin knocked on the door and stepped back half a step to wait for the response from the people in the mansion, and answered the master's question lightly:
"Gather everyone together, then rush into the enemy's face, solve all the problems in front of the enemy, and finally wait and see how the enemy reacts before deciding whether to take action."
When the Grand Tutor heard Qi Lin's answer, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
He was so angry that he laughed and shook his head, thinking that he must have lost his mind to hope to find out Qi Yan's real plan from this girl.
This girl is so innocent. I think Qi Yan usually tries his best to protect her carefully and naturally won't let her get involved in these messy intrigues.
After giving up this channel of testing Qi Yan, the Grand Tutor relaxed and waited for Qi Lin to collect the chess pieces that Qi Yan needed.
He is in no hurry.
After all the chess pieces have been placed on the board, he has his own way to return to his position and continue to deal with Qi Yan and Wang.
Just as he was thinking about this, a voice came from inside Ning Mansion asking:
"Who's knocking at the door?"
The Master did not rush to speak.
Qi Lin also did not speak.
"strangeness……"
The person inside the door said with some uncertainty: "Did I hear it wrong?"
As he spoke, the sound of footsteps fading away was heard from inside the door.
The Grand Tutor looked at Qi Lin in confusion. When he saw that Qi Lin's eyes were thoughtful and he seemed to be ready to break into the room, the Grand Tutor suddenly reacted.
This girl has the habit of 'not speaking unless she's talking' again!
"It's me, open the door." The tutor hurriedly took the initiative to speak.
The footsteps that were leaving the door stopped, and then asked in confusion: "What are you? Who are you?"
Tutor: "..."
Yes, this is not the capital, and his voice is not yet known to everyone.
The slightly frustrated Grand Tutor spoke again, "Grand Tutor of the dynasty, I have come to discuss important matters with Minister Ning."
The voice from inside the door sneered:
"Where did this liar come from? How dare you come to our Ning Mansion and harass Lord Ning in the middle of the night? Don't you know the relationship between our Lord Ning and Lord Liang?
Believe it or not, I will send you, an old liar, to prison for reformation!"
