376 Shaless Old Man Number 2
Soujin quickly found his grandfather in the garden talking with Princess Xiao ng. Going by the princess's expression, Soujin didn't want to imagine what his grandfather said to her. He rubbed his forehead silently. These two were truly troublemakers. Unfortunately for him, they were also his family.
"Pri Minister Nanglong Souka, is there any important matter today?" Soujin called with an indifferent tone to his grandfather. He followed by greeting the two people on the side, "Princess Xiao ng and Tang Xuan."
Xiao ng smiled kindly, "We are just talking about the recent events in Ming City."
Despite Xiao ng brushed the matter off like that, Soujin knew that his grandfather's mouth was not that kind. He peered off to his grandfather with inquiring eyes, but his grandfather just put an innocent expression on his face, not showing any trace of his wrongdoing.
"Is the trade going well, Princess Xiao ng?" Soujin shifted the topic.
Xiao ng nodded her head, "There is nothing that you need to worry about, General Soujin. We have co into term about the trade, and we won't change the agreent blindly."
Hearing her answer, Soujin smiled slightly. His handso face looked even more dangerous for a mont and Xiao ng was stunned. With this pair of devilish faces, she truly wondered how their child would look like. Both the man and woman were simply too attractive!
"Tang Xuan, is there any problem?"
Tang Xuan shook his head, "I just hope you can stay away from Princess Xiao ng. If there is anything you need to discuss, I'm here to lend my ear."
"There is no need for that," Soujin arched his eyebrow and pointed his chin to his grandfather, "I'm only here to take the Pri Minister away because there are other important matters this old man had to do."
Nanglong Souka glared at his grandson. He had already finished his task, so this youngster must be lying to take him away from this place. If this young man wanted to give him more task, he should prepare himself to write a few ters essays for the emperor to complain about this annoying grandson of his.
"Thank you, General Soujin," Xiao ng showed her gratitude.
Nanglong Souka felt that he was hated by them as Soujin pulled him away. Not literally as Nanglong Souka walked by himself to follow Soujin after saying his farewell to the two people behind them. When they have reached far enough, Xiao ng's face contorted.
"Is he really a pri minister?" She looked towards Tang Xuan with indignant eyes.
Tang Xuan shrugged his shoulder and put a slight smile. He had only t with Nanglong Souka once previously and his image of this old man was indeed soone terribly annoying. Of course, he didn't question the other party's skill in negotiation. He was more curious about the other party's ability in talking nonsense as that was basically what that old man do for hours.
"He is indeed the pri minister."
Xiao ng was speechless when she saw Tang Xuan's nonchalant manner, "Soone like him would already been smacked in Gu Yue Kingdom."
"Long Kingdom is essentially different with Gu Yue Kingdom. The river had separated the two areas for decades and with ti, the culture beca different. You shouldn't assu that the people here are the sa with the one in our kingdom," Tang Xuan explained calmly.
Xiao ng nodded her head and picked the cup on the table. In any case, the negotiation was basically over and only so formalities left. She was not really in a hurry for she enjoyed her ti here quite well. There were so many interesting things to do aside from reviewing the trade with Yan and tried to strike here and there.
"Let's return to rest."
Tang Xuan waved his hand and Steward Du ca forward. He prepared the carriage while Tang Xuan told the servants about their departure. There was nothing else they need to do in the palace for today.
On the other hand, Soujin dragged his grandfather back to the hall. Yan stared at the two incoming people with a helpless manner. He was about to return back to his workroom and now they ca to the hall again. What was it this ti?
"Soujin, you little annoying brat," Nanglong Souka retorted indignantly, "Why did you take away from that place? I have not finished talking to that princess and Tang Xuan."
"If you stay there for a second longer, I don't doubt the image of Long Kingdom would plumt in their eyes," Soujin answered in a cold voice. With his grandfather's conduct, there was no better representative than him if one wanted to make other people impression worsen.
"Not that I want to do that," Nanglong Souka shrugged.
Yan rubbed his forehead, "Pri Minister, please don't forget that there is another stack of work for you to do. I have ordered the servant to put them in your workroom."
"What? I have finished the last batch, right?" Nanglong Souka asked indignantly. He had finished his work, okay? What did this young emperor an when he said that there was another batch of work again? Did he unintentionally offend the two of them?
Internally, he complained vehently as he truly wished that soone could be on his side for once. He was not a working machine, alright!
"That was the work for last week," Yan explained. He looked towards Nanglong Souka's darkened expression as the old man was on the verge of explosion. He shrugged his shoulder and waved his hand. Shu 'kindly' lead Nanglong Souka to his workroom where nurous paper already put there. The sight nearly made the old man truly explode in anger.
Soujin approved Yan's action for he did think that his grandfather workload was not as much as before. Originally, Yan wanted to decrease the old man's work in consideration of his old age, but after seeing Soujin's expression, he changed his mind.
"It's already afternoon. Don't you need to accompany your wife?" Yan shifted the topic.
Soujin nodded his head. He really wanted to return and spent his ti with Jun Hua again. He walked outside the hall and went towards the stairs when he abruptly stopped his step. His line of sight was looking around carefully.
From this distance, there was nothing wrong could be seen. However, his sense had been sharpened over the years of his ti as the general. He knew. There was a faint sll of blood, where did it ca from in this big city? His gaze moved here and there before it finally stopped in one direction. A foreboding feeling arose within his heart.
As his expression, his feet stomped hard on the ground, pushing him to one direction. At the sa ti, his mind prayed hard. 'Don't let it be his residence.'
