Chapter 777: Requesting an Audience Chapter 777: Requesting an Audience Editor: Atlas Studios “Have they left?” Luo Zhan stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back and asked in a low voice.
“Yes.” The guard lowered his head and replied, “They just left not long ago.
Second Young Master, the Han people have always been wary of us.
If Prince Rong finds out that we contacted his son in advance, will heaEUR|” Luo Zhan chuckled and said, “It’s just a chance encounter on the street.
Besides, we bought expensive gifts this time.” He turned around and walked to the table.
As he fiddled with the brocade box on it, he said, “Get someone to send them a card with greetings.
It won’t be good if Prince Rong comes looking for us first.” “Yes.” “Pass one to the magistrate of Ju Prefecture as well.
Like Great Zhou, the military and government are separate in Great Qi.
We should play by their rules.” The guard lowered his head and bowed before leaving.
When Liu Qing received the card with greetings, he first found her two subordinates and showed them the card with greetings.
Governor Xu held the card and pondered for a moment before saying, “Lord, although Luodian county belongs to Great Qi, the mountains there are steep and blocked by dense forests.
It consists mainly of Buyi ethnic people.
In the past, when Emperor Gaozong was on the throne, it had always been autonomous.
Considering the people there are xenophobic, I wonder what brings them to Ju Prefecture.” “No matter why they’re here, they can’t be here for us.” Fang Zhizhou said, “Since Luodian has nothing to do with our Ju Prefecture, they’re most likely here for Prince Rong.
Them sending you the greeting card is probably just a formality.
We just have to go to the Prince’s estate and do as they instruct.” Governor Xu felt that Fang Zhizhou was too spineless.
Just as he was about to retort, he heard Liu Qing say, “Luodian is connected to West Xia in the west and the Annan Kingdom in the east.
Considering they have always had private dealings with the two places, it’s better to be careful.
Two years ago when West Xia invaded, Great Zhou and Qiannan suffered severe losses, but Luodian remained unscathed.” Governor Xu and Fang Zhizhou immediately fell silent.
Liu Qing looked at the two of them and said, “So we have to ask His Highness how to entertain the people from Luodian.” Qi Haoran walked in with his son by his neck.
He held his son’s calf with one hand and picked up the greetings card on the table with the other.
As he threw the card to Zhu Liang, he said to him and Liu Qing, “Luodian is just a small county.
Is it worth me personally handling it?
The two of you can decide yourselves.” With that, he carried his son out.
Little Bear’s cheers came from outside.
“We’re going hunting, hunting!” Liu Qing and Zhu Liang looked at each other.
Zhu Liang coughed lightly and said, “Before this, the people from Luodian had privately come into contact with the Little HeiraEUR|” Liu Qing’s expression changed.
He had also heard that the people of Luodian were good at cursing.
He could tell that Prince Rong was angry.
Luo Zhan didn’t expect that he wouldn’t even be able to see Qi Haoran.
He smiled and bade farewell to Liu Qing and Zhu Liang.
When he returned to the inn, the smile on his face completely disappeared.
The veins on his fingers that were holding the brocade box bulged.
After a while, he sneered and handed the brocade box to a guard.
“Send it to the Prince’s estate personally and say that it’s a gift you left behind previously.” “Second Young Master, shouldn’t you be the one to deliver this personally?” Only then could Prince Rong see his sincerity.
Luo Zhan snorted and said with a smile, “How can I hand him the gift personally when I don’t even get to meet him?
Just send him the gift directly.
If they value it, they’ll naturally come to see me personally.
If they don’t realize the deeper meaning behind it, hmph, I don’t think Great Qi is that powerful.” The guard lowered his head.
However, Luodian was also in Great Qi’s territory.
If Great Qi didn’t fare well, Luodian would definitely not fare well either.
Sighing, the guard took the brocade box and slowly retreated.
Speaking of which, he was lucky to bump into Qi Haoran and his son, who had just returned from hunting.
The round Little Heir was carrying a basket that was even taller than him and was filled with prey.
Prince Rong was piggybacking him as he held his father’s clothes tightly.
Seeing that Prince Rong and the Little Heir had returned, Zhu Liang hurriedly abandoned the guards and brought the servants forward to welcome them.
Just as Qi Haoran stopped the horse and was about to turn around and put his son down, Little Bear had already turned around and jumped down from the high horse.
Shocked, Qi Haoran subconsciously reached out to grab him, but he could only grab the corner of his shirt.
When he came back to his senses, Little Bear was already standing under the horse, looking up at his father happily.
Qi Haoran’s fingers trembled and he felt his heart beating violently.
Only then did he feel alive.
Instead of getting off the horse immediately, he sat on the horse and heaved a sigh of relief before getting off.
Zhu Liang and the rest were already kneeling on the ground in fear.
The guards behind them were pale.
When the Little Heir jumped down just now, they really did not react at all.
Not knowing that he had gotten into trouble, Little Bear was happily greeting his father.
“Daddy, let’s go quickly and let Mother and Brother see the prey I caught.” Qi Haoran took a deep breath and went forward to hold his hand.
Just as he was about to walk into the residence, he saw an unfamiliar guard standing in front of the door.
He could not help but narrow his eyes and ask, “Who are you?” The guard was lamenting that good luck had turned into bad luck when he heard Qi Haoran’s question.
He hurriedly took out the brocade box and said, “Reporting to Your Highness, I’m the guard of the Luodian’s Second Young Master.
This is a gift our Second Young Master left behind for the Prince’s estate.
He specially tasked me to send it over.” Qi Haoran took the brocade box and raised his eyebrows.
After taking a glance at it, he was about to throw it to Zhu Liang when Little Bear jumped and held the brocade box in ihis hand.
He said happily, “It’s so pretty.” He clicked open the box immediately, and Qi Haoran frowned when he saw what was inside.
Not caring, he said to the guard, “Now that you’ve delivered the item, go back and thank your Second Young Master for his gift on my behalf.” After saying that, he grabbed the back of his son’s collar and said, “Hurry up and go in.
Look at how dirty you are.
You’re not allowed to see your mother and brother before you take a shower.” Little Bear stuck out his tongue, closed the brocade box, and ran in with the small basket on his back.
Qi Haoran strode after him.
The guard had been paying attention to Qi Haoran’s expression.
Other than frowning at the beginning, his expression was calm later on.
That implied that Qi Haoran either did not understand the deeper meaning of this gift or did not care.
However, no matter what, it was not what the Second Young Master wanted to see.
The guard went to bid farewell to Zhu Liang with a dark expression.
However, he realized that other than Zhu Liang, everyone else was still kneeling on the ground.
Only when the cheers of the Little Heir could no longer be heard did they dare to stand up again.
It could be seen how much Prince Rong doted on the Little Heir.
The guard went back and said to Luo Zhan, “aEUR| I saw that Prince Rong’s face had turned pale, but still he couldn’t bear to blame the Little Heir.
He even held his hand and walked in with a doting expression.
Second Young Master, I believe that by meeting the Little Heir before Prince Rong, we’ve inevitably angered him.” Luo Zhan clenched his fists, his expression dark and unreadable.
He had long heard that Prince Rong doted on his wife and son, but he didn’t expect him to dote on them so much.
To take out his anger regarding personal matters on official matters, he was simply muddle-headed!
Luo Zhan closed his eyes and said, “Let’s wait a little longer.
If Prince Rong still refuses to see me in three days, we’ll go back.” The guard looked hesitant.
“Second Young Master, wouldn’t we have made a wasted trip that way?
I’m afraid the priest and Eldest Young Master will blame us when we go back.” Luo Zhan said, “We’ll ask Third Brother to come when we get back.
If I go and seek an audience again, Luodian will be even more at a disadvantage.
At that time, the conditions won’t be so easy to negotiate.” Luo Zhan smiled bitterly.
He didn’t expect that his spur-of-the-moment move would cause them to fall into a dilemma.
At that time, he just wanted to test the strength of Prince Rong’s estate and make use of Prince Rong’s heir.
Who knew that Prince Rong would get so angry about it?
At this moment, the angry Qi Haoran was complaining to Mu Yangling.
“You don’t know how scared I was back then.
My back turned wet when I saw him jump off such a tall horse.
At that time, I was really itching to pick him up and give him a good beating.
However, we were outside the gate.
If I beat him up, he’d certainly shout and the entire Juzhou City would know that I abused my son the next day.
You have to teach him a lesson.
If such a thing happens again, my lifespan will definitely shorten.”
