According to tradition, the Inner Court arranges a grand martial arts performance every year, and all seven princes will participate.

In the great martial arts performances over the years, Prince Zhao's Palace was the only princely force that did not fall behind in front of Prince Qin's Palace.

Regarding Wu Wudi's matter, if even King Zhao didn't dare to go into the water, Lin Yike would really have to think carefully about whether to go into this muddy water next.

Zhao Feng stopped and asked: "By the way, why did you fall in love with the Lord Protector?"

Lin Yi blinked: "His price is the highest, so I will naturally choose his house. Is there any problem?"

Zhao Feng looked helpless when he heard this: "Do you believe this?"

The time she has spent with Lin Yi is not too short, and she is well aware of Lin Yi's nature of taking one step at a time. If this is such an important opportunity in rule selection, it is impossible to choose the Protector's Palace just for luck and dividends. .

Lin Yi smiled and said calmly: "I am indeed looking for the Duke Protector's Office for future cooperation."

Zhao Feng suddenly became interested: "What kind of cooperation? Count me in."

Lin Yi glanced at her: "You and I have been busy in the Kingdom of God on land for so long, but it seems that we haven't gained much benefit. Does your family have any objections?"

Speaking of which, Zhao Feng also deployed a lot of people in this Hundred Sons Plan, but unfortunately they failed to survive the Hundred Sons Hegemony in the end.

Although at the level of the entire Prince Zhao's Mansion, other core disciples have already been arranged, Zhao Feng's side is at best a supplementary plan. Even if it fails in the end, it will not really affect the overall situation.

But at least for Zhao Feng personally, after working hard for so long, he fell short in the end, so he was still a little bit shocked.

Zhao Feng, however, didn't take it seriously: "Winning or losing is a common thing for military officers. If I don't have this awareness, what else would I do? I might as well hide in the boudoir and embroider."

"So aware."

Lin Yi picked up a glass and then said: "To be honest, I really need your help."

Zhao Feng's eyes lit up: "You tell me."

Lin Yi said sternly: "When this catastrophe of rules is over, I may need your help to sell some of the man-made rules I have. It is best to sell them on the black market."

"ha?"

Zhao Feng didn't react for a moment: "Any man-made rules that are not selected into the Hundred Sons Plan will basically not be able to survive the catastrophe of rules, right?"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "What if something slips through the net?"

"It is inevitable that fish will slip through the net, but how can you ensure that you are so lucky?"

Zhao Feng looked at Lin Yi again for a while. Although he said so, he still followed his thoughts and thought about it carefully.

"If you really have a fish that has slipped through the net, the price will really be sky-high when the catastrophe of the rules is over. At least before the rule reconstruction plan is officially implemented, if you seize a good opportunity to make a move, you can easily make dozens of times. Premium.”

After a pause, Zhao Feng suddenly said: "If you sell it on the black market, don't you want to be the one who stands out?"

Lin Yi nodded: "If someone with my status suddenly makes a fortune, there will be all kinds of trouble."

Zhao Fengshen agreed: "That's true."

Lin Yi picked up the wine glass: "Agreed?"

Zhao Feng smiled and clinked a glass: "You eat meat, I drink soup, happy cooperation."

Tianyuan Tower.

Like Yipinlou, this is also the top consumption place in the Inner Court, and the boss behind it is the Prince of Chu's Mansion.

In the elegant room on the top floor, Chang Sun Sheng was sitting at the end of the table.

As a dignified Lord Protector, he looked uneasy at the moment and felt like he was on pins and needles.

Without him, the person sitting opposite him at this moment was the King of Chu.

Even though he had succeeded him as Lord Protector, Chang Sun Sheng never dared to imagine that a little shrimp like himself would one day be able to drink at the same table as the King of Chu.

"The boys in my family have a good relationship with you, and I have always treated you as my nephew."

King Chu took the initiative to pick up the wine glass.

Changsun Shengcheng was frightened and quickly stood up and said: "To be cared for by the king is a blessing that my nephew has cultivated for several lifetimes."

After speaking, he drank it all in one gulp.

King Chu smiled, took a sip, and then asked casually: "How much dividend did you give Lin Yi?"

Changsun Sheng was slightly startled.

This private luck dividend ratio has always been top secret.

But at this moment, facing the King of Chu's face-to-face inquiry, he did not dare to be careless, so he could only say honestly: "Twenty points."

"What?"

King Chu was surprised on the spot and said: "You gave him twenty points of luck bonus? He is so open-minded, and you actually agreed?"

Changsun Sheng had a bitter look on his face: "My nephew doesn't want to agree, but the situation is stronger than the person, so there is no other way."

Thinking back on it now, he still felt heartache.

He is a protector of the country, and to outsiders it sounds high-sounding, but the real core asset is only that artificial rule, but in the end, he has to be given away 20% of the luck dividend for nothing. Who would be willing to change it?

But based on the situation at that time, if he was not willing to let go of the 20%, he would not even be able to keep the remaining 80%.

If it really comes down to that, if he has thousands of people in the Duke Protector's Mansion, he will really have to drink the northwest wind.

King Chu said earnestly: "Your father died early. If he were still alive, in this situation, do you think he would agree to be blackmailed?"

Changsun Sheng hesitated: "Probably not."

The previous Lord Protector had a standard fiery temper, with a prominent tendency to bend rather than bend. If the same thing had happened to him, he would have had a falling out on the spot.

Of course, if the previous Lord Protector was still there, his palace would not have fallen to this point.

King Chu put down his wine glass and said in a quiet tone: "You are young, so it is not surprising that you cannot control some things, but you must remember one sentence, princes must not be humiliated, and especially they must not be kicked in the face by those inferior people. This is our bottom line."

"Otherwise, we will not only lose the face of your Duke Protector's family, but also the face of all our princes."

"Xiao Sheng, you can't just go against all the princes in a single thought."

One sentence made Chang Sun Sheng break into a cold sweat.

Not to mention becoming the public enemy of the princes, he would not dare to provoke the King of Chu sitting in front of him even if he had a hundred courages.

Changsun Sheng said quickly: "Your Majesty Wang Mingjian, my nephew has no such courage. This time he is really forced to have no choice but to agree to Lin Yi. If there is even the slightest chance, my nephew will never be cheap." He doesn’t get a cent!”

King Chu raised his eyebrows: "In that case, why don't you just regret it?"

"ah?"

Changsun Sheng was stunned and said blankly: "My nephew made a vow to him, how can he go back on it?"

He really wanted to regret it, but he really didn't have the courage. After all, the backlash of breaking a vow was not just talk.

If he really regrets unilaterally, not to mention that the catastrophe of the rules has not yet passed, and it is not yet time to kill the donkey, even if it has passed now, he cannot afford the price.
