Chapter 240 Guide
"This is the list of gifts, and a confidential letter that must be delivered to you. With that, my mission is complete." The officer took out the letter and list from his pocket and handed them to Jiang Yu. He let out a long sigh of relief and then sat down on the comfortable sofa.
"Your little castle, though small, is exquisitely beautiful; it's like a fairyland!" Only then did he have the mind to examine the castle closely and utter a heartfelt exclamation.
The guide came from a respectable background. As the second son of his family, he neither had to inherit the family business nor was he under pressure to marry and have children. So, after a few years of wandering, he went to the palace to become the imperial guide.
This position is clearly a perfect fit for him; he has now become one of the most important advisors to the Emperor. The fact that he was sent to Hollandpur demonstrates the importance His Majesty and His Highness place on this Lord of Jiangyu.
"My parents love me dearly, which is why they carefully arranged this place for me," Jiang Yu said with a gentle smile.
"With the Jiang family's status, and Lord Jiang Yu's beauty and wisdom, any castle is worthy of her." The guide observed Jiang Yu and, noticing that she did not appear nervous or timid, changed the subject.
"His Majesty naturally trusts the Jiang family very much. Back then, several wealthy territories were placed on General Jiang Ren's desk for him to choose from, but he insisted on choosing the one furthest away. His Majesty even scolded him for being ruthless!" The guide chuckled, completely ignoring the hidden meaning in his words.
"Father is first and foremost His Majesty's subject, and only secondly the head of the Jiang family." Jiang Yu's gaze was earnest and unwavering. "The Jiang family will always be the sharp blade of the Ocean Empire, and the hilt will always be held in the hands of the supreme Yulia royal family."
"His Majesty is well aware of the Jiang family's loyalty." The guide chuckled with satisfaction. "Not long ago, His Majesty purged the court, and Lord Jiang Yu was of great help. The Jiang family is undoubtedly a meritorious contributor!"
At this moment, Lin Yi, having arranged everything, also walked in. The guide immediately steered the conversation toward him: "The young master of the Lin family is indeed a hero among young men. His Majesty has said that the Lin family is truly a reliable and loyal family!"
"Hahaha, if my father knew what you said, I don't know how happy he would be!" Lin Yi's laughter was full of the hearty spirit of a military general even before he got close.
The main character is straightforward and simple-minded—isn't that exactly what the emperor wants? Jiang Yu lowered her head and smiled slightly.
"General Lin Yi will be returning to the capital soon, won't he?" the guide asked.
“Indeed, we’ll be setting off first thing tomorrow morning,” Lin Yi replied, walking over to the sofa and sitting down. “After I return to the capital to report on my duties, I’ll immediately return to Teslo.”
"That's wonderful! I've come at the perfect time!" the guide said happily. "We can return to the capital with General Lin Yi tomorrow morning."
"Why are you leaving so soon after arriving? Please rest here for a few more days," Jiang Yu quickly urged.
"Thank you for your kindness, Lord Jiang Yu, but unfortunately this isn't a business trip for me. I'm in a hurry to return and report." The guide waved his hand. "There will be other opportunities. I'll definitely take the time to fully appreciate the culture and scenery of Hollandpur County then!"
Throughout the meal, aside from simple, polite greetings, Fan Qingyin remained quietly by his side, clearly still dissatisfied with the royal family of the Ocean Empire. The emperor's attempts to appease and compensate him seemed insufficient to make up for the damage caused by the previous incident.
Fan Qingyin has always been tactful and profound in his dealings with others. His deliberate and obvious behavior must have had its own purpose, and Jiang Yu did not interfere much.
The guide, of course, could see through the attitude of this genius divine messenger at a glance, and naturally wouldn't go out of his way to provoke him.
This divine messenger made a name for himself with his bloody and ruthless methods in the palace. He was not tired of living and would not naively believe that Fan Qingyin was as holy and gentle as she appeared.
He glanced subtly at the divine messenger's blood-red hair and icy eyes, and a chill ran down his spine. He quickly looked away.
With this shift in perspective, they saw Moa, who was also silently enjoying his meal.
Moya was eating small cakes with a very high gold content, which he claimed to be nothing more than edible gold leaf. He was enjoying them immensely.
His long, gradation-purple hair was meticulously styled, and his pure, beautiful eyes seemed to reflect the deep ocean. At this moment, he lowered his eyes, and the small, round spots at the corners of his eyes added a touch of mortality to his peerless beauty.
Even though the guide came from the royal court, he couldn't help but be mesmerized by such beauty.
He took a sip of wine from his crystal glass to cover up his demeanor, then turned to Jiang Yu, who was sitting at the head of the table, and asked, "This gentleman is truly remarkable; he doesn't seem like someone from this world. I've never heard of such an outstanding person before."
coming.
Jiang Yu smiled inwardly. Finally, they'd reached this stage. It seemed this was another task for the two foxes from Yuria's family.
Given their extensive connections and influence, they must have already taken notice of Moya. It's just a matter of how much they know about Moya. That guy Keslan might have told them everything because he's greedy for money.
However, outwardly, whatever she says goes. Even if Yuria knew the truth, she could only keep it to herself, and still had to send someone to make a token inquiry.
Jiang Yu felt happy just thinking about how frustrated they looked. She couldn't help it; she held grudges quite a bit.
"I almost met with misfortune during my travels, you must have heard about it, right, Guide?" Jiang Yu put down her cutlery and revealed a shy smile.
She looked at Moya with affection, then turned to the guide and introduced him, "This is Moya, the young master of the Northern Divine Servant Tribe of the Aurora Empire. He is the one who saved me."
She then lowered her head somewhat shyly, but said firmly, "He has loved and protected me all this way, and we are of one mind. It's a pity that I won't be able to participate in the partner selection event this year. I will officially marry Moya next year."
"Ah..." The guide swallowed unconsciously, wondering what Prince Turner meant. On one hand, he wanted him to ask about the mysterious man who had suddenly appeared beside Lord Jiang Yu, and on the other hand, he wanted him to find an opportunity to say that sentence to Lord Jiang Yu...
Ah, this situation doesn't seem quite right; he's really having a tough time...
He gave a strange smile, first raising his glass to Jiang Yu in a toast, then swirling his glass at Mo Ya from afar, and said sincerely, "What a perfect match! Lord Jiang Yu and Mr. Mo Ya are truly a golden couple, a perfect union."
"I wish you two a long and happy marriage in advance. I will definitely give you a gift when you get married!"
