With Li Chengqian not in the capital, he will have more room to make some arrangements.
Therefore, an agreement was quickly reached on the matter of the Crown Prince's mission to Northern Qi.
Li Chengqian didn't seem to care about the reactions in the court.
He never really cared about the officials of the Qing Kingdom.
It's natural to feel more at ease using talent that you've cultivated yourself.
Therefore, after this mission to Northern Qi concludes,
He will not return to Kyoto, but will instead go to Kusakyo Castle.
On the one hand, they cooperated with Wang Yangming in building the Jixia Academy.
On the one hand, preparations must also be made to bring Nanjing City under their control.
This was before he truly began to govern a city.
Moreover, it is a large city with a long history.
What's most terrifying is that they were all civilians from enemy countries.
To be honest, without the cultivation level of a Grandmaster,
I really don't have the courage to walk safely in this metropolis of a million people.
Chapter 101 Sean's Confusion: How dare they make me a groom for the Crown Prince? Has the world changed?
Soon, the day of departure arrived.
Li Chengqian also did so on this day.
They met Sean, whom countless people regarded as a great villain.
A weathered man with gray hair, wearing shackles.
He emerged from the depths of the dark gates of the Overwatch Council.
When the light shines on you
He seemed somewhat uncomfortable.
Sean sighed softly, "The smell of sunshine... I haven't felt it in so long."
As they spoke, even the air seemed to be filled with the stench of blood.
He glanced at Li Chengqian, who was not far away.
Seeing the condescending look in the other person's eyes,
He chuckled softly, his voice somewhat grating: "Young man, you have courage. Few people dare to look down on me. I'll remember you."
Li Chengqian's face remained calm.
Meanwhile, a supervisor from the Control Yuan strode forward and suddenly kicked Sean in the back of the knee.
Although Sean was a top-tier expert of the ninth rank, after years of torture and poisoning, he was no longer the same as before.
He was kicked so hard that he fell to his knees.
"You have no right to be presumptuous before His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Sean knelt on the ground.
He took a deep look at Li Chengqian. Was this the Crown Prince of Qing?
"We should be gentler with the elderly. There's no need to argue with a disabled 27-year-old."
At this moment, Li Chengqian's voice rang out.
"Yes, Your Highness." With that, the man released his grip.
Sean slowly stood up and looked at Chen Pingping, who was sitting in a wheelchair beside Li Chengqian.
He said coldly, "You really dare to let me go back?"
Chen Pingping smiled and said, "I'm old. Whether I let you go back or not is meaningless to me."
"Moreover, times have changed. Some people can let you live, but others can let you die easily. There won't be any more of the kind of painstaking efforts to bring you back like back then."
"However, with His Highness the Crown Prince personally escorting you back to Northern Qi, it's all worth it."
Times have changed?
Upon hearing this, Sean's resentful eyes showed a hint of confusion.
What exactly does this mean?
Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure: Wolf Peach!
A martial arts genius from the Northern Qi Dynasty
He was a disciple of Kuhe before he was imprisoned.
But at this moment, he seemed like a servant.
They stood obediently in front of the carriage of the Crown Prince of Qing.
He was somewhat confused.
However, Li Chengqian shook his head.
He's just a spy chief, why does he act so high and mighty?
“Remove all the shackles from this old man. Head north. I just need a driver for my carriage, so let’s use him.”
Nobody had any objections to this.
Let alone the fact that Sean is now half-crippled, even in his prime, when he possessed the strength of a ninth-rank cultivator...
Even in front of a grandmaster, it cannot stir up the slightest trouble.
Since Li Chengqian had given the order, his subordinates naturally had no choice but to comply.
Sean, however, was beginning to question the meaning of life.
Should we make him our driver?
They even put shackles on him?
these years,
The people of Qing Kingdom were so wary of him that it was practically ingrained in their very bones.
How could things have become so casual all of a sudden?
Aren't these people afraid that he will attack the Crown Prince?
Moreover, Chen Pingping just said,
The Crown Prince will personally escort him back to Northern Qi; this is the intention of the Crown Prince of Qing to go on a diplomatic mission to Northern Qi.
Countless questions arose in my mind.
Even though he had once been the head of spies in Northern Qi, he was momentarily confused.
Is it really true that times have changed?
Sean stood up somewhat awkwardly.
He allowed the officials of the Control Yuan to remove the heavy shackles from his body.
The feeling of ease that washed over him made him feel as if he were in a dream.
However, an uncontrollable rage gradually welled up in his heart.
Compared to this indifferent attitude,
He actually preferred to maintain the previous atmosphere of being on high alert and as if facing a formidable enemy.
Because this allows him to still feel the lingering power he once possessed.
It can also soothe his pride.
Sean walked step by step to Li Chengqian's carriage.
His face was expressionless.
Yet it exuded a chilling aura.
It was as if he was stepping not on a road, but on countless hideous corpses.
This intimidating aura made many people from the Control Yuan around them tense up.
However, Li Chengqian still looked down at him with a calm expression.
Even You Lian, who was following him,
His expression was also quite calm.
Sean looked at Li Chengqian, somewhat eager to make a move.
Although he still had residual toxins in his body and his physique was aging.
But they were less than two meters apart.
He was confident that he could take down the crown prince of Qing Kingdom in an instant.
This prince is so young, enjoying a life of luxury, what kind of martial arts cultivation could he possibly have?
With his seasoned methods,
Winning over such a young man would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?!
However, the people around him didn't seem worried at all about him making a move.
He suddenly caught a glimpse of it.
Not far away, Chen Pingping, sitting in a wheelchair, smiled as if watching a play.
Then, an inexplicable feeling welled up in my heart.
Frustration, resentment, and indignation
A mix of countless emotions
