Beauty and the Bodyguard
Chapter 11185:
The old man’s name was Chu Zhongyuan, and he was the cousin of the King of Chu.
However, his most important role in the Chu Palace is that of assisting the King in handling all matters, big and small.
Although the King of Chu himself has always been arrogant and rude, he did not dare to be disrespectful in the slightest in front of his uncle Wang Zuotang, who had been responsible for teaching him since he was a child.
It is precisely because of this that Chu Zhongyuan’s status in the palace of the King of Chu is extremely transcendent. Sometimes even the decisions of the King of Chu must be approved by him.
The Prince of Chu's Mansion can be as powerful as it is today, and it is the Central Plains of Chu that has made the greatest contribution.
As soon as he opened his mouth, the furious King Chu immediately restrained himself a lot, but after holding it in for a while, he still refused to give in.
"You can't just take advantage of that guy Lin Yi, right? That guy cursed me in front of all the civil and military officials for bad luck. Uncle Wang, I can't bear this tone, can I?"
Chu Zhongyuan gave him a serious look: "Your Majesty is the King of Chu. No matter what you do, you can just crush him openly. There is no need to use these conspiracies and tricks to degrade yourself."
The King of Chu couldn't help but choke.
Chu Zhongyuan advised in a deep voice: "Given the level gap between the king and that Lin Yi, if everything is done in an upright manner, he will never have the slightest chance to hurt the king, and the king will not suffer these embarrassing losses."
When the King of Chu heard this, he couldn't help but feel deeply ashamed: "Uncle Wang is right."
These words are really not false. The loss he suffered from Lin Yi, looking back now, it seems that he really brought it on himself.
As long as he was a little more reserved, Lin Yi would have nothing to do with him.
After a moment of silence, King Chu couldn't help but ask: "But now that things have developed to this point, what should I do? Please teach me, Uncle Wang."
“Don’t your Majesty have a bet with Lin Yi?”
Chu Zhongyuan said in a solemn tone: "The next thing the king has to do is to wait and see what happens."
The King of Chu was stunned: "Ah? Just let him go like this?"
Chu Zhongyuan said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is the King of Chu, and what is on your shoulders is the future and destiny of the entire Chu Palace. All your attention now should be focused on the catastrophe of the rules. This is what you should do as the King of Chu. It is unwise to waste energy on an insignificant person like Lin Yi."
"But…"
The King of Chu opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say anything to refute. He could only say in a muffled voice: "I listen to Uncle Wang."
Chu Zhongyuan showed a pleased expression.
Although this contemporary King of Chu has shortcomings of one kind or another, and many of the things he has done in the past are not worthy of his status as a Seventh King in the eyes of others, there is one thing he can be persuaded to do.
This alone makes him much stronger than the other seven kings.
In the next two days, the King of Chu did not bother about Lin Yi's affairs anymore, and instead devoted himself to dealing with the catastrophe of the rules.
To be precise, all preparations for the rules catastrophe have already been completed, and his focus now is on the follow-up.
The Rules Catastrophe is certainly a big crisis, but for great princes like the Seven Kings, it is also an unprecedented opportunity!
Not only can he transfer the core rules shared by the inner court to his own name and complete the transfer procedures, but he can also take advantage of the opportunity of rebuilding the rules to cut an unimaginably huge piece of cake!
This is the most important thing in the Seven Princes' Palace at the moment.
At the same time, after Ning Yuqi took over the power of the Protectorate, he also made various arrangements intensively at Lin Yi's request.
One of the biggest actions was to empty out the treasury of the Protectorate's Mansion and buy up various secret realms of rules in an almost frenzied manner! The so-called secret realm of rules is a special secret realm that bears artificial rules like the snake mysterious realm. To a certain extent, it can also be regarded as a base of artificial rules.
Without these bases, man-made rules are like castles in the air and cannot be put on the ground.
These secret realms of rules are deeply bound to man-made rules. They were originally the absolute core assets of all parties and were basically not sold to the outside world.
But now, with the advent of the rules catastrophe, they, like those man-made rules, have all become junk assets.
Prices have fallen to all-time lows.
This move of the Protectorate's Mansion naturally cannot be hidden from the eyes of those who are interested.
“At this time of bargain hunting in the secret realm of rules, are you preparing for the next rule reconstruction?”
Of course, rules reconstruction can be started from scratch in a brand new secret realm, but if it is replaced by these rule secret realms that have already undergone a lot of adaptation work, it will naturally be more effective with half the effort.
However, there was a wave of ridicule immediately.
“I heard that the Protectorate is now headed by a woman?”
"The ambition is not small. With the little power he has in the Protector's Palace, what qualifications do he have to participate in the reconstruction of the rules? Haha, it's really whimsical."
“It’s just not okay for a woman to be the head of the house. Even if you really want to buy the bottom, it won’t really hit the bottom until the rules come down. Aren’t you buying the bottom halfway up the mountain now?”
Ning Yuqi also had the same doubts.
After holding it in for two days, Ning Yuqi couldn't help but ask: "The catastrophe of the rules will be in the next day or two. When these two days pass, those sellers will have no luck at all, and the selling price will be at least 30% lower than now. We Wouldn’t it be better to buy it when the time comes?”
Lin Yi heard this and asked: "Do you think the Seven Princes understand this principle?"
Ning Yuqi was stunned and nodded weakly: "Of course I understand."
Lin Yi said: "They can buy the bottom at the lowest point because they have the qualifications. If we follow suit, what do you think our chances are of buying the bottom?"
Ning Yuqi was stunned, then his eyes lit up and his expression suddenly dawned.
Once the rules catastrophe falls, these rules secret realms will indeed become junk assets. However, for the seven princes who naturally have the power to rebuild the rules, these are high-quality assets that can be quickly turned into treasures.
These secret realms of rules fall into their hands, even if they do not rebuild them themselves, but just outsource them, the profit will be at least a hundred times as soon as they are resold.
Such a tempting cake, the great princes headed by the Seven Kings would not give it to anyone else.
Not only will they strictly control the qualifications to participate in the rule reconstruction, but also these secret realms of rules will not be able to be bought by just anyone if they want to.
At this juncture, the catastrophe of the rules has not yet officially come, and the attention of the seven kings has not been completely transferred to it. This is Lin Yi's last chance to take action.
The only drawback is that the price is higher than the real bottom.
But for Lin Yi, this is obviously not a problem.
After all, as long as you grasp the following rules and rebuild, no matter how much you buy now, you will make a profit later.
This means that he just came to the Inner Court, and his foundation is too shallow. The only one who can leverage it now is the power of the Duke Protector's Office.
Otherwise, you can earn more in the future! (End of chapter)
