Then let them show their loyalty!

Chapter 490: Slap the Envoys in the Face! (Thanks to the leader of "Shu Shu Leon"!)
Hearing the woman's question, the maid bowed slightly and said, "Princess, yes. It's Qiu Tu."

The woman was a little surprised when she heard this, but she still said calmly,
"He's the speaker now? Is he promoted so quickly?"

After that, the woman said, "Have someone send his information over. I want to take a look."

Hearing the woman's words, the maid responded quickly.

Then she took out the intercom and whispered something.

After a moment, someone was printing information at the front of the carriage.

After a while, the information related to Qiu Tu was printed out and sent over.

The maid stood up, bent down, fetched the information, and handed it to the woman.

The woman took it and looked at it carefully.

The more she looked, the more surprised her watery eyes became.

After a moment, she looked at the maid beside her and asked, "Was Qiu Tu an ordinary person a year ago?"

"In just one year, you have already become a peak fourth-order Cataclysm?"

Hearing the woman's words, the maid nodded again slightly, and then said, "Yes, Princess. His progress can indeed be described as terrifying."

"So, the intelligence department has been analyzing what his path to catastrophe is."

"There are three main guesses now."

"The first is that his cataclysm path is "mysterious", and it is likely to be a very easy to complete and weird branch."

"The reason for this speculation is that when he was promoted to the fourth-level Cataclysm, he showed his "Law Projection", which looked very much like a "mysterious" path."

"The second one is 'Life-Reproduction'. The reason for this guess is that there are many women around him, and they are all kinds of women, fat and thin."

"Young girls, mature women, young women, all kinds of women. He accepts almost everyone."

"Plus, he is very closely connected to the evil god Lazhiluo, so it is very likely that they are from the same path."

The princess had already seen all this information in the intelligence just now. So she nodded slightly and asked, "What's the third guess?"

The maid said seriously, "The third guess is that the path of his catastrophe is likely related to his official position."

"Although his strength improvement nodes do not completely match the promotion."

"But, in this year, his official rank has improved as fast as his strength."

"Although he tried his best to conceal it, and many people even speculated that it was because his improved strength helped him get promoted. But it is still too much of a coincidence."

"This speculation was proposed by Lord Kou Xuan."

"What he meant was that the worst thing in intelligence work is to complicate simple things."

"And the worst thing is to be led by the enemy."

"As a rising political star, Qiu Tu should be most careful about his reputation."

"But he has always been openly partying, attracting women and having mistresses everywhere, without hiding it at all. He wants everyone in the world to know that he has so many women."

"Isn't this strange?"

"If he is really the catastrophist of the Life-Reproduction Pathway, why doesn't he hide it all?"

"What good would it do for him to let others know his ways and weaknesses? Isn't this a taboo for Cataclysm?"

"So, Lord Kou Xuan believes that this is obviously a smokescreen deliberately released by Qiu Tu."

"Apart from all other interfering factors, the official position is the element that is closest to Qiu Tu's trajectory of strength improvement."

"So, Lord Kou Xuan believes that Qiu Tu's path is most likely "order". It's hard to say what the specific subdivision is. It may be "power" or "politics", but it should be a path related to official position."

When the princess heard the maid mention Kou Xuan, her expression looked obviously a little unnatural.

She pursed her lips slightly, sat up straight involuntarily, and the expression on her face became restrained.

Then she was silent for a moment, and then she said, "How do you explain Qiu Tu's "law shadow" when he was promoted to the fourth level?"

The maid said seriously, "Master Kou Xuan is right. This is probably a false impression deliberately created by Qiu Tu."

"He said Qiu Tu is not a simple person. He seems to have no background, but many of his behaviors seem to be supported by unknown forces."

"So, Qiu Tu might have secretly advanced to the fourth-order Cataclysm, and then arranged for others to advance to cover for him."

Hearing this, the woman was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, I..."

Before she finished her words, a maid at the front of the carriage suddenly turned around and said to the woman, "Princess, Lord Kou Yu said that we will reach Dongye Prefecture in half an hour."

"He wants to communicate the details of the visit with you by phone."

Being interrupted by the maid, the woman bit her red lips lightly and said, "Okay."

at the same time.

As the Speaker of the State Assembly, Qiu Tu was waiting for the arrival of the visiting convoy from the Sixth Shelter in the border city of Wuhai.

The Sixth Shelter's visit group had two stops. The first stop was "Dongyezhou".

After visiting Dongye Prefecture and inspecting the "Boundless Heart Sea Development Plan", the delegation will go west to the Eighth Shelter to meet with several leaders including Mr. Rao and Mr. Tang.

To show the importance of this visit, the Eighth Shelter also organized a reception team.

The leader of the "academic school", Mr. Pang, served as the head of the delegation, and Qiu Tu, the speaker of Dongye Prefecture, served as the deputy head.

It was impossible for the head of the group to personally go to the border to welcome them, so only the deputy head of the group, Qiu Tu, was waiting at the border.

At this time, while waiting on the main road of Hongshan City, Qiu Tu was also listening to Guan Xiao's report.

This woman might be born to be an intelligence agent. In just a few days, she got some secret intelligence.

Now, she was wearing a uniform and followed Qiu Tu closely. While looking at the road in the distance like Qiu Tu, she whispered, "Speaker, among the people on this visit, you should pay special attention to the "deputy head" of the delegation, Cabinet Minister Kou Yu."

"According to my intelligence, this person doesn't seem that simple."

"He was born into a thousand-year-old prestigious family, the Kou family, the most prestigious family in the northwest. This family is a shining star in history. They have left their mark in every era."

"There are great talents, great painters, poets, and even the genius who has won three first prizes in a row."

"Among them, the most famous one is the legendary ancestor of the Kou family, Kou Yi, who ranked first in the palace examination and eventually became a first-rank official and was granted the title of Earl."

“It was he who laid a solid foundation for the Kou family.”

"During the catastrophe, the Kou family suffered a certain impact. But they recovered quickly."

"Then, in the chaotic northwest at the time, they selected King Kang, provided money and manpower to support him, and eventually helped King Kang lay the foundation for the entire Sixth Sanctuary."

"This also led to the Kou family's overwhelming power in the Sixth Sanctuary. It is even said that many states and cities only know about the Kou family and not King Kang."

"And Kou Yu is the younger brother of Kou Xuan, the current head of the Kou family."

"He has become a cabinet minister at a young age. It is said that he has a strong extraordinary talent, but his personality is arrogant and domineering, and it is very difficult to get along with him."

After listening to Guan Xiao's introduction, Qiu Tu nodded slightly, and then asked, "What about Princess Xi?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Guan Xiao said, "Princess Xi is the second wife of Prince Kang."

"She and King Kang have a son, now one year and eight months old."

"Princess Xi was born into a prominent family, well-educated and well-mannered, but her family fell into poverty. During her time of hardship, she was rescued by Prince Kang and has been with him ever since."

"However, this also resulted in her being quite weak in character, and most of the time she was just a vase." "So her presence in the political arena of the Sixth Sanctuary is not very strong."

After listening to Guan Xiao's information, Qiu Tu nodded slightly.

So, this should be another story between a powerful official and an emperor.

The only difference is that times have changed, and the drawbacks of the imperial system made it impossible for the "founding emperor" to easily eliminate powerful ministers.

Or maybe the powerful minister had already made a backup plan and sidelined the emperor, resulting in the current stalemate between the two sides.

As for whether there are other shelters, or even evil gods, or even evil god organizations behind this, it is unknown.

After all, Qiu Tu still remembered that Mu Ye had said that the 6th-level evil god "Yaksha" was guarding the disaster zone around the 6th shelter.

And among the top executives of Shelter 6, there are also members of the Kirigakure.

However, this has nothing to do with Qiu Tu.

No matter how the political arena in the 6th Shelter changes, including whether the emperor cleans out powerful ministers or powerful ministers successfully usurp the throne, it will not affect Dongye Province.

His main focus now is to take advantage of the 6th Shelter Delegation's visit to Dongye Province to find a way to obtain the "Earth Vein Flower" and then upgrade the "New Territory Area".

As for the visiting delegation, as long as it does not affect him, he will not worry too much and will just be a tool and go through the process.

And just when Qiu Tu was thinking this.

A convoy was driving slowly on the road in the distance.

There were thirty or forty vehicles in the convoy, stretching from the intersection all the way to where it disappeared from sight.

There were off-road vehicles leading the way, stretched business cars for the big shots, and sedans for guards.

The dust was flying like a long dragon, following behind them in a mighty manner.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu gently patted Guan Xiao's hand. Guan Xiao nodded immediately, then ducked away from Qiu Tu and began to arrange his men and remind the receptionist.

After a while, the convoy drove to a nearby place and then slowly stopped.

Qiu Tu and the members of the reception team walked forward and stood in front of the car.

According to normal procedures, it should be Kou Yu, deputy leader of the 6th Shelter Visiting Group, who should come forward to connect with Qiu Tu, and then the two convoys will merge and head to the state capital together.

However, the strange thing was that Qiu Tu and others stood there for more than ten seconds, and there was no movement from the 6th Shelter Convoy.

It was not until more than 20 seconds had passed that a burly man in uniform came down from the lead car.

He glanced at Qiu Tu coldly, then said, "Lord Kou Yu said that he was too tired from the long journey, so he won't come down to meet you all."

"Let's just meet up with the convoy and head to the state capital together."

After hearing the man's words, the scene fell silent, and the members of the reception group quietly exchanged glances with each other.

The 6th Shelter had helped a lot during the creation of the 8th Shelter. In addition, it was established earlier and developed faster, so its strength is much ahead of the 8th Shelter.

This makes the 6th Shelter always have an arrogant mentality when facing the 8th Shelter.

In addition, Kou Yu, the person in charge of this trip, is known for his arrogance and domineering behavior in the 6th Shelter, so it is not surprising that he is so disrespectful.

But this is really a huge test of Qiu Tu's ability to deal with it.

After all, the 6th Shelter owes a favor to the 8th Shelter, and is stronger. If they take a tough attitude and demand to follow the procedures, it will be ugly.

If I follow Kou Yu's arrangements directly, I will inevitably lose face and it will be very embarrassing.

Therefore, all the members of the reception team couldn't help but break into a sweat.

Seeing this scene, Guan Xiao, who was following Qiu Tu, had a slightly fluctuating look in her eyes. She took a step forward and wanted to help Qiu Tu answer - the other party had sent their subordinates, and she came forward just in time to show that they were of equal rank.

If she said something unpleasant, it didn't matter, because Qiu Tu would back her up and smooth things over. At most, she might be punished or demoted.

But, since she was able to take the blame for Qiu Tu, Qiu Tu would definitely compensate her afterwards.

As a result, just as she took a step forward, Qiu Tu, as if he had expected it, lightly blocked her behind him with his right hand without even turning his head.

Then, Qiu Tu raised the sleeves of his black coat and said with a smile, "Master Kou Yu's order?"

"Excuse me. We are the reception group for the Sixth Shelter Visiting Group, and the leader is Princess Xi."

"It's a long journey of thousands of kilometers from Shelter 6 to Shelter 8. We must make sure Princess Xi is safe and in good health."

"So, please let me go see Princess Xi and confirm her condition."

After saying that, Qiu Tu ignored the big man's reaction and went straight to the center of the convoy.

Seeing that Qiu Tu actually slapped him in the face, the big man's face suddenly changed, and he wanted to come over to stop Qiu Tu angrily.

As a result, at this time, Qiu Tu just turned his head and glanced at him indifferently.

At that moment, the big man's pupils shrank slightly, and his hair stood on end. He stood there as if he was under a spell, not daring to move.

However, Qiu Tu chuckled, withdrew his gaze expressionlessly, then released his mental power, and the aura of the fifth-level Catastrophist on his body slowly enveloped the entire convoy.

At that moment, all the accompanying personnel in the convoy who were originally talking and laughing suddenly fell silent.

Everyone felt that terrifying and powerful aura, a force that came from a higher level of life, a force that could crush them with even a single finger.

In the face of absolute strength, all little moves seem so ridiculous.

Therefore, Qiu Tu came to the center of the convoy and arrived in front of Princess Xi's stretched commercial vehicle without any obstruction.

Standing at the door of the car, Qiu Tu said respectfully, "I am the deputy head of the reception group of the 8th Shelter, and the chairman of the Dongye State Assembly, Qiu Tu, and I would like to see Princess Xi."

"Excuse me, Princess. Shall the two convoys reunite and head to the state capital together?"

As the deputy head of the reception group, Qiu Tu represents the face of Shelter No. 8.

If the deputy head of the delegation, Kou Yu, can meet up when he says to and leave when he says to, then Qiu Tu (Shelter No. 8) is one level lower than Kou Yu (Shelter No. 6).

But if this order was given by Princess Xi, it wouldn’t matter.

Because Princess Xi is the second-in-command of the 6th Shelter, her political status is comparable to that of Elder Tang.

In addition, Qiu Tu suppressed the whole scene, which saved the face of Shelter No. 8. Therefore, if she slightly adjusted the plan, the reception team could just do it at their own convenience, which would not be shameful.

This was the reason why Qiu Tu ignored Kou Yu and went straight to Princess Xi after suppressing everyone.

At this moment, after hearing Qiu Tu's words, the car was quiet for two seconds, and then there was an obvious noisy sound, like quarreling or pushing.

Qiu Tu looked at the business car with some confusion, not knowing what had happened.

As a result, at this moment! Suddenly, the car window was pushed down directly from the inside.

With a "click" sound, the car window glass fell to Qiu Tu's feet, and then broke into several pieces with a "crack".

Qiu Tu:? ?
Qiu Tu looked up at the broken window with a puzzled look in his eyes, and then he saw a charming and pretty figure with a veil sitting by the window with a blushing face, looking at him.

At that moment, Qiu Tu felt inexplicably a little weird.

Wait a minute. Does this scene look familiar?

Why does it look so much like a scene from classical literature?
