Beauty and the Bodyguard

At the end of the day, Prince Qin’s Mansion was not sincere at all.

Or rather, King Qin’s Residence did not want the Chu royal residence to survive this.

After all, if that happened, the Chu royal residence would have to accept their fate and become a vassal of King Qin’s residence.

Chu Zhongyuan continued to bid.

“The Li family of Fengtian Prefecture has one rule of giving children and 100 high-grade mystic realms.”

The crowd was immediately in a heated discussion.

The scale of the child-giving rule was a level higher than the heaven-worshipping rule. It had already reached the threshold of the core rule.

Just this alone made the bidding much more competitive than King Qin’s Mansion!

Lord Chu’s face did not have the slightest joy.

Even if the child-giving rule could barely be considered a core rule, it was still far from the core rules of the Chu royal residence. The key was that the upper limit of this rule was very limited. No matter how much it was developed, it was not enough to support the face of a top-notch royal residence.

” Wei Manor, five ordinary rules, one Wine King’s Secret Realm, and one high-grade Spiritual Infant.”

Lord Chu was interested.

The Wine King’s Secret Realm and the high-grade Spiritual Infant were both rare treasures, but what really caught his eye were the five ordinary rules.

If it had been before the catastrophe of the rules, not to mention five ordinary rules, even ten or twenty rules added together would not have been able to match up to one child-giving rule!

However, that was then and that was now.

Even if the benefits of these five ordinary rules were still far from being comparable to the child-giving rule, in terms of development prospects, these five ordinary rules were much more than that.

After all, everything was going well now. Even the most inconspicuous ordinary rule would have an absolute advantage as long as it survived compared to the rules in the subsequent reconstruction plan.

Especially in the hands of a top dukedom like the Chu royal residence, coupled with all kinds of top-notch resources, it was not a whimsical thing to grow into a core rule one day.

However, it was not enough.

Following Chu Zhongyuan’s public bidding, the prices offered by the various families were made public.

Among them, there was no lack of high-quality offers like those from the Prince of Wei’s residence that could arouse the interest of the King of Chu, but they had never really widened the gap.

Most importantly, he could not completely convince Lord Chu himself.

They arrived at the last house.

“Prince Zhao’s mansion is bidding with Lin Yi.”

Chu Zhongyuan glanced at Lin Yi subconsciously.

Lord Chu curled his lips in disdain.” This kind of poor trash. What kind of price can he offer? He’s just a disgrace.”

In the next second, Chu Zhongyuan announced,”Twenty ordinary rules.”

The disdain on Lord Chu’s face froze.

“Twenty ordinary rules? Where did the 20 ordinary rules come from?”

Everyone went crazy.

Under the great calamity of the laws, there were indeed some survivors of the laws left behind, but the number of these laws was definitely not many. At most, it would not be more than the core laws protected by the Hundred Seedlings Plan.

Even if all of them were added together, there would only be dozens of them at most.

With the powerful strength of the Wei Estate, collecting five ordinary rules was already the limit.

If it were any other prince’s mansion, even if they could collect more, they would at most be able to collect two or three more.

Twenty ordinary rules?

It was simply a fool’s dream!

“Is the King of Zhao joking?” someone questioned.

Lord Chu could not help but be suspicious.

Prince Zhao’s estate had just gone through a huge change. It was not very credible to suddenly say that he wanted to take out 20 ordinary rules at this time.

King Zhao glanced at that person indifferently. His invisible aura immediately pressured that person until he could not breathe. He tightly clutched his throat, and his face turned purple.

Only when King Zhao’s gaze shifted away did that person finally catch his breath. He was shocked and afraid, not daring to make eye contact with King Zhao anymore.

“I never joke, and neither does Lin Yi.” Zhao Wang said sternly.

Lin Yi was speechless.

He wanted to say that he would joke around sometimes, but in this atmosphere, if he jumped out to correct King Zhao, it would be a little too unpleasant.

Chu Zhongyuan and King Chu looked at each other and suppressed their excitement.” I hereby announce that the winner of this public auction is King Zhao’s mansion and Lin Yi!”

Chu Wang didn’t like Lin Yi at all, but at this moment, he chose to shut up.

After all, those were 20 ordinary rules!

Once he managed it well, not only would the Chu royal residence be able to overcome this obstacle, but it would even surpass its peak.

The others wanted to object, but they could not open their mouths.

It couldn’t be helped. The difference in their prices was too great.

At this moment, if anyone stood up and said that their own price was higher, they would definitely be despised by everyone. This was because they would treat everyone present as fools.

“Wait!” Bai Shizu suddenly stood up.

Chu Zhongyuan’s expression did not change. He retorted calmly,” Master Bai, you don’t think that the price offered by Prince Qin’s Mansion is higher than twenty ordinary rules, do you?”

Lord Chu sneered.” On account of the fact that our families are allies, you’d better shut your mouth. This way, I can still give you some face.”

“Of course, if you don’t want to be dignified, this king can also help you be dignified.”

“This small matter is not difficult for this king.”

As he spoke, a wild and unreasonable aura came out of his body and automatically locked onto Bai Shizu.

Everyone was shocked.

Although Bai Shizu was one of the top figures of the new generation, there was still a qualitative gap between him and King Chu, who was a top-notch veteran expert.

If Lord Chu really made a move, Bai Shizu basically wouldn’t be able to resist at all.

The King of Zhao looked at this scene with interest.

If King Chu really fell out with King Qin’s residence, he would be happy to see it.

In fact, he had taken the initiative to offer twenty rules for the auction. On one hand, he wanted to invest in Lin Yi, and on the other hand, he wanted to destroy King Qin’s palace.

King Qin’s residence was already powerful. Once it completely swallowed the Chu royal residence, even if the other residences joined forces, they might not be its match.

If the Chu royal family wanted to stand up to King Qin’s residence, they had to give it enough confidence.

The 20 ordinary rules were the source of the Chu royal residence’s confidence.

However, Bai Shizu was unfazed.” Twenty ordinary rules is indeed a big deal. However, what I want to say is that Chu Zhongyuan is suspected of being a spy of the gods. According to the rules of the Safety Inspection Department, before his matter is resolved, all major transactions in your Chu royal residence must be frozen.”

As soon as he said this, the entire place was in an uproar.

Chu Zhongyuan was a spy of the Gods?

Once this news got out, it would definitely be explosive news that would shake the entire Inner Court!

Once it was confirmed, everyone present felt their hair stand on end.

After all, people at Chu Zhongyuan’s level were all spies of the gods. How much had the inner court been infiltrated by the gods?

It was simply unimaginable.
