Chapter 196: My Dear Majesty, Please Let Go (26)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Baili Jue then took a look at Xia Liang"s head and found she was not wearing any hairwear, then said,“They also have unique jewelries that you can try on. You can buy anything you like. Look at you. You are not wearing any jewelries at all.”
Baili Jue meant to show off his wealth but more importantly to send gifts to please Xia Liang.
“I am not interested in any of those.” Xia Liang shook her head and said, “there must a reason for Baili Xi made a sudden change. Although he is selling small businesses, he could earn a huge amount of money. With the money and he being as a prince, it would be very easy for him to steal your throne. Master, you have to pay extra attention to it.”
As she heard what Baili Jue said, Xia Liang sensed something wrong with the whole thing because it was like those stories that a time-travelling girl would do.
It was hard to believe that a time-travelling girl and an ambitious prince wouldn"t do anything in the country.
However, she didn"t know anything about this world and she was still part of the story. All she could know was some logical deduction.
At the moment.
“Ding! There is a woman from different time who is reborn in this world behind Prince of Rui. She hates the emperor and looks like a good woman in front of people. She is behind all of these, including seducing Prince of Rui to betray and kill the emperor. If you can succeed in defeating her twice and get rid of her, you can get 200 points.” 9957 gave Xia Liang another mission which was worth a lot of points.
Baili Jue was moved and pleased that she cared about him.
Holding her hands and rubbing them, Baili Jue thought her hands couldn"t be cuter. And her expressionless face was cute too.
After he finally got over every negative influence and decided to believe her, he couldn"t have enough of her. Everything about her was cute in his eyes. He wished he could hold her in his arms forever.
“Yes, I know. I will keep an eye on Baili Xi.” Baili Jue sounded seriously but kissed her on her hands while she was thinking of something else.
After one kiss, Xia Liang was still absent-minded. He gave her another kiss like he was stealing her kiss.
Like a child!
While Xia Liang was still thinking about the new mission, she didn"t notice what he was doing. On her mind, she was feeling lucky that her mission was not contradictory to the emperor"s plan to get rid of Baili Xi.
Instead, if she could get rid of the time-travelling woman, it would be helpful for Baili Jue to get rid of Baili Xi.
“Master, do you know any women whom Baili Jue likes?” Xia Liang asked, “I need their information. Is that ok?”
“What for?” Baili Jue asked, putting down her hand right away.
“I suspect there is a woman behind Baili Xi to help him. It is unlikely for a man to come up with business regarding food, jewelry or make-ups.” Xia Liang answered.
Baili Jue was surprised by Xia Liang"s a.n.a.lysis. It could be a new aspect for him to look into Baili Xi. And it made sense to him too.
“What would you do when we know who she is?” Baili Jue said heavily and was ready to take Xia Liang"s advice.
“If you trust me, you can put me in charge. I know those interesting things they are making. If you can grant me power, I can crash them easily and cut off their channels to make money.” Xia Liang said.
“Ok. You are in charge then.” Baili Jue smiled, “I will send more hands to you tomorrow and they will listen to you as their only master.”
Xia Liang shook her head, “I don"t want to be their master. All they do is to listen to my command.”
“Why not?” Baili Jue was curious.
No one said no to absolute power.
“They are your soldiers. They have to be loyal to you.” Xia Liang explained, “I am borrowing them. If they are loyal to me, they would betray you, which is not what I want.”
Baili Jue"s heart was warmed because of what she said. He even trusted her more.
“You get 5 more points of trust. Now you have 55 points of trust in total.” 9957 said in her mind.
At this moment, Xia Liang remembered that she had something to give to him and said, “I have something for you.”
Then she stood up and dragged him all the way to the table.
Baili Jue took the papers on the table and read them.
But the more he read them, the more he could not put them down. After a quick scanning, Baili Jue looked at Xia Liang excitedly and asked anxiously,
“What are they? Are these for me?”
“Yes.” Xia Liang nodded, “what you are reading is called Exploitation of the Works of Nature. It tells techniques to make weapons. I have copied the first volume which tells key points to cultivate crops. If we can spread the method throughout the country, it is possible to boost food production.”
Xia Liang explained, giving a simply-bound book to Baili Jue.
Baili Jue couldn"t wait to take it over and gave it a quick view. His heart was melt because of the neat and clean handwriting she wrote and exquisite ill.u.s.tration she drew.
The joy and affection almost overwhelmed him.
Baili Jue put down the book, took her hands, and asked, “so you have been writing this these days?”
“Yes.” Xia Liang nodded. She frowned and said, “it"s pity that I write slow.”
“Are your arms sore?” Baili Jue cared, “why do you write by yourself? You can someone else to do it.”
“Master, no one can see this book.” Said Xia Liang, “only I can.”
