Under the Root

"I am the captain..."

"I am your chief fan, and now I am summoning you to complete the task."

"Mission? We have not been notified."

"A temporary mission from Princess Yuba, do you need to be notified?"

"His Royal Highness?!"

----

"I've been waiting for a long time. Master Jiuyuan. It took a little time to gather the troops."

"It's nothing, Mr. Shan. In fact, this speed is already beyond my expectation. I thought it would take you more than double the time."

"It will take more than double the time. I'm afraid I won't have the face to see Your Highness Yuba."

On the street, Shan and Jiuyuan were accompanied by three teams of soldiers and court ladies.Greeting each other.The fan wearing a leather armor-style military officer uniform and the gorgeous silk court maid's uniform don't really look very good together.But both sides turned a blind eye to this pairing.

Such things as the inner palace interfering with the outside of the palace almost disappeared in the era of Empress An Jie.But in the past few days since the arrival of the princess Yuye, it has happened frequently several times.It is already unsurprising.

And unlike the history of the distant great fathers, in today's era where the emperor ruled, such things as inner palace meddling in politics did not get the suspicion of the officials.

On the contrary, the officials gave the pomelo leaf the greatest tolerance and convenience.

After all, the power of the Goddess over us mortals is overwhelming, and it seems completely irresistible.Thinking of some bad memories, Shan subconsciously frowned.

"What's the matter, Mr. Shan. Is the injury from the past few days still not healed?" The considerate Jiu Yuan asked Shan in a caring tone.

Of course, it is different from when he was with Yuba, although Jiu Yuan's words are gentle now, they have some distance.But it's also normal.This is just the third meeting between Shan and Jiu Yuan.

"It's nothing. I was just thinking about something." Shan, who was also aware of this, buried his confusion in his heart.There are many things that he can't say to Yu Ye's confidant Jiu Yuan.

"Ahh. That's good. Then finish the work quickly. I'm a little busy with things in the palace recently, so I need to go back quickly." Jiu Yuan said.

"I think so too, then the task is to seal off the White Pavilion and capture Tuskul's remnant spy party, the owner of the White Pavilion, Karula." Shan confirmed after looking at the documents in his arms. "According to His Royal Highness Yuba's information, there are two spies in Tuskul, the military officer Fujika and the civil servant Karula. After the swordsman Fujika was arrested, Karula's force is nothing to worry about, as long as we don't let her Just run away. Is that right?"

"That's right." Jiu Yuan nodded embarrassedly.

"It seems His Royal Highness Youye loves Lord Jiuyuan very much. You, who is suspected of being a spy of Tuskul, are invited to personally participate in the arrest operation. It is to get rid of the charges and make another contribution along the way. It is really far-sighted."

"That." Jiu Yuan opened his mouth.

"how?"

"This is for you, Mr. Shan." From the bag at his waist, he took out a round cup with a wooden seal, and stuffed it into Shan's hand.

"This is?" Shan shook the wooden cup suspiciously.

"This is medicine for trauma," Jiu Yuan said.

"Thank you. But I don't think I need it." Saying so, Shan put away Jiu Yuan's kindness.

Then he gestured to the soldiers behind him, and in an instant the soldiers took the steps to the White Pavilion knowingly.

It's an easy trip.Both the fan and the soldiers confirmed this.

"That's right. Mr. Shan."

Suddenly, just as Shan Ma was about to leave, Jiu Yuan's voice suddenly came.

"Huh? What's the matter?"

"Mr. Shan, why did you listen to Yuba?"

"If you are disobedient, you will be assigned to Tuskul's remnants. Your Highness Youye told me so." Shan smiled wryly, and said to Jiu Yuan behind him.

"...Thank you for your hard work."

"It's nothing. After this mission, Her Highness the Princess recommended me to become an official official. I want to go on an outing in exchange for Her Highness's support. I have made a lot of money here." Fan said with emotion.

"That's it, pomelo leaf has compensated me. This way I feel at ease." Jiu Yuan murmured softly.

"what?"

"It's nothing, I wish you a smooth journey. I will do a good job of supporting the rear." The girl bowed deeply to Shan.

Thank you so much, Mr. Shan.

Chapter 45 The Black Greatsword

"Report, there is no target here."

"Report, there is no target here either."

In the Bailou Pavilion on the north side of the imperial capital, there were waves of shouts from soldiers.

They are the troops ordered to come to Bailou Pavilion to arrest criminals.According to the instructions of Her Royal Highness, every corner of the White Pavilion can be searched unimpeded.

Of course, even so, the action should be gentler.

"Go over there to search, remember to move gently. This is the property of His Royal Highness Lulutie." Shan commanded his subordinates.

"Obey!" Carefully putting down the vase in their hands, the soldiers frantically searched again.
