I Really Am Not The Lord Of Demon
/ I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 401 – The Secret War in the Imperial Capital
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The imperial palace was the center.
There was a large area of protected historical and cultural relics.
The Xinluo embassy was one of them.
Of course, it also included the Fu Sang embassy which was built from bamboo and wood opposite the embassy.
Cui Min first looked at the door of the Fu Sang embassy from the window of his office.
A car with a diplomatic flag was seen driving in.
“Hmph!” Cui Min Xian snorted.
Xinluo and Fu Sang looked at each other across the sea. They were neighbors and sworn enemies for generations!
It had always been like this since ancient times.
Even though Cui Min Xian's professional ethics as a diplomat required him to smile at everyone.
It was still difficult for Cui Min Xian to have a good impression of Fu Sang.
“Cui Libin…” a voice came from behind. “The ambassador has ordered you to go to his office!”
Cui Min first put down the curtains and nodded. “Okay!”
Then, he walked to the mirror and tidied up his appearance.
There couldn't be any flaws.
There had to be strict requirements!
Because this was the imperial capital of Xia Country.
And under his feet was the diplomatic territory of Xinluo.
It was a window for all the citizens of Xinluo to show their vigor and image in the face of this ancient and Big Empire.
Therefore, they had to be meticulous.
They had to be trembling with fear!
Cui Min first tidied up his appearance and then strode toward the ambassador's office at the end of the embassy.
“Knock… Knock… Knock!”
He knocked on the door and reported, “Sir, this humble servant has been ordered to report!”
“Come in!” A dignified voice came from inside the room.
Cui Min pushed the door open first and saw that Xinluo's ambassador, Wen Fengming, was talking to someone.
“Sir…”Cui Min lowered her head and asked, “Do you have any orders?”
Xin Luo was a country with an extremely strict hierarchy and an extremely rigid order.
The two classes of aristocrats in the ancient times did not die out during the era of the federal empire that lasted for three hundred years.
Instead, they merged with the new industrial capital and financial capital.
In the end, something called the chaebol was born.
Besides, the chaebol controlled the fate of the entire Silla kingdom through their control of land and capital.
Thus, the Silla kingdom became a paradise for the chaebol, and they controlled the entire country.
And Wen Fengming was the son-in-law of the Li family, the head of the five plutocrats.
He was also the son-in-law of the first daughter.
Naturally, his status was not ordinary.
That was why he was asked to come here to gild the gold.
Staying in the imperial capital was recognized as a gilded opportunity in Silla.
Because this was the center of the world.
People here could send back dozens of fancy reports with just a word of praise.
Several prime ministers of Xinluo came out like this.
“Cui Libin!” Wen Fengming put down the phone and said to him with a smile, “Sit down and talk!”
“Yes!” Cui Min first sat down in front of Wen Fengming obediently.
“I'll give you a mission!” Wen Fengming said with a smile, “A mission that concerns the well-being of the people of Xinluo!”
Cui Min raised his head first. He was also a scion of a financial magnate. Although he was from a branch family, he couldn't inherit the family business.
However, he still understood the words of the financial magnate.
“It concerns the well-being of the people in Xinluo?” He mocked in his heart, “The well-being of the financial magnate, especially the Li Family!”
However, Cui Min immediately stood up again and puffed out his chest with a righteous look, “I swear to complete the mission with my life!”
“Sit, sit, sit…” Wen Fengming chuckled. “Actually, it's not that difficult…”
He pointed at the Fu Sang Embassy behind him.
“The Fu Sang embassy picked up an immigration representative from the capital airport this afternoon…” Wen Fengming took out a stack of files from his desk drawer and handed it to Cui Min. “Your mission is…”
“Find a way to get close to them…”
“I want to know what the Fu Sang people are doing!”
Cui Minxian took the files and looked at them. He was puzzled. “Sir, these are just ordinary files…”
“An immigrant from Fu Sang was invited…”
“That's not strange!”
On the files, the records of a family surnamed Qian ye were all there.
This level of information was not difficult for the people of Xinluo!
In the 300 years of the federal empire, immigrants and officials who were close to Xinluo could be found everywhere in the country.
Therefore, it was not difficult to ask for the internal records of a Fu Sang family.
Of course, everyone understood.
Compared to Xinluo, the management and expenses of the Fu Sang people in the capital were equally huge.
Otherwise, how could the Fu Sang people always receive so much aid every year?
The Security Intelligence Department of the Federal Empire would not make things difficult for each other on these matters.
Most of the time, they would turn a blind eye.
“It's not strange…” Wen Fengming laughed. “The strange thing is…”
“They came from Jiang City…”
“And they were picked up by the embassy the moment they got off the plane!”
“Jiang City?” Cui Min raised his head first. As a diplomat, he knew that it was a coastal city in the south of the Federal Empire.
It seemed that they were friends with a port city in Xinluo?
“Well…”Wen Fengming nodded. “That's the focus of our diplomatic work next year!”
Cui Min frowned. “Focus?”
What was the focus of Xinluo's diplomacy?
Wasn't it just to follow the federal empire closely to the outside world.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Empire would say whatever the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Silla Kingdom said.
Even the speech was copied directly.
If you want to say something different, then say it.
It was probably when they were scolding Fu Sang that Xinluo would put in extra effort.
Wen Fengming coughed and said, “This is not something that you need to concern yourself with!”
“In short, you only need to know that this family is very important to the people of Fu Sang, and they come from a sensitive area!”
Cui Min heard it first and instantly understood.
If the history between Xin Luo and Fu Sang were to be spread out, three days and three nights would not be enough to finish it.
Hence, there was a saying in Xin Luo: After every Xin Luo was born, his parents would teach him two things.
The first was to respect Confucius.
The second was to hate Fu Sang.
Hence, the diplomatic relationship between Xin Luo and Fu Sang was completely imaginable.
What you have to do, I will not let you do it smoothly.
Even if it was just to disgust each other, both sides were willing to do it.
Back then, when Kobe was in turmoil, the viewership ratings of Shilla television station soared to the peak.
Hence, he immediately said, “Sir, please rest assured…”
“This lowly one will investigate the details even if I have to die!”
Wen Fengming laughed. “I can rest assured that you will do your job!”
After sending Cui Minxian off, the smile on Wen Fengming's face disappeared.
He picked up a file from his drawer.
“Young Master…” he muttered to himself.
Since ancient times, Xinluo had always been a 'big deal'.
Especially in the past three hundred years, the only thing that new Luo needed to work hard on was 'Big Deal'.
Therefore, Xinluo had invested a lot of resources and spared no expense here.
Now, there was a legend that even this country might want to rope in someone.
Naturally, Shingo would pay any price to find him.
One more wouldn't matter.
Chiba Michiko was brought to the top floor of the embassy.
A woman wearing traditional Fu Sang attire walked up to her in clogs and bowed deeply. “Are you Miss Chiba?”
Chiba Michiko was slightly stunned before she quickly nodded. “Yes!”
“Please follow me…” The woman chuckled before she shook her butt and stepped on the wooden boards to move forward.
Chiba Michiko turned around to look at her parents and cousin. With their encouragement, she braced herself and followed behind.
Under the woman's lead, they passed through the narrow corridor with bamboo flooring and arrived in front of a room.
“Please!” The woman bowed. “His Highness is waiting for you inside!”
Chiba Michiko swallowed her saliva and pushed the door open.
A young and capable Fu Sang girl was already looking at her from behind the office desk.
“Are you Chiba Michiko?” She stood up and walked towards Chiba Michiko while facing the sunlight from the glass window behind her. She extended her hand and said, “I'm Ligong Aizi…”
“You can call me Aizi…”
“Your Highness…” Chiba Michiko stuttered.
This was the first time she was facing such a noble person directly.
The high and Mighty Princess of the royal family.
Legend had it that this highness was the classmate of the eldest princess of the Federal Empire.
In the outside world's newspapers, they were also known as the role models for independent women in the new era.
“There's no need to be so nervous…” Ligong Aizi laughed. “There's no need to call me 'Your Highness'…”
“Right now, you're the Pride of our Fu Sang Kingdom!”
Chiba Michiko raised her head in confusion.
“Who knows how many chefs there are in the world…”
“And you're the only chef from Fu Sang who was invited!”
“You're the representative of our Fu Sang Kingdom!”
“So…” Aizi grined and said, “On behalf of the royal family and people of Fu Sang, I want to thank you! Thousand Night Sauce!”
“You have brought glory to our Fu Sang women!”
Chiba Michiko felt Dizzy.
She had completely fallen into the rhythm and control of Aizi.
Of course, she would answer whatever she asked. She did not hold back and did not hide anything.
When she walked out of the door, she suddenly woke up.
“Your Highness, why do you care so much about Ling San?”
Just now, Ligong's beloved son had asked a few questions about Ling San from her.
She answered seriously.
Of course, she was careful not to tell Ling San's address directly.
But now that she thought about it, she was still a little afraid.
“Will ling-san blame me?” She regretted it.
People who lived in seclusion probably didn't like their stories to be known by others.
Ligong Aizi looked at the back of the innocent little girl.
She smiled.
“The great sage who lived in seclusion…”
“The Sage who taught his excellent cooking skills…”
“He doesn't usually go out…”
“He wears glasses and has a cat…”
She slowly thought, “Is that young Master X?”
She didn't know.
But she understood that countless clues had already pointed to the past.
After thinking for a while, she picked up the phone and said to the other side, “Prepare the name Thorn for me…”
“Send it to her highness the eldest Princess Tonight…”
“Tomorrow afternoon, I will personally pay my respects to the eldest Princess!”
After a pause, she said, “Also, pass down my order to wake up all the spies…”
“I want to know everything that happened in the Embassy of Xinluo!”
Xinluo and Fu Sang had been hostile to each other for hundreds of years.
Naturally, the two sides would place hidden stakes and nails on each other. These were all routine operations.
Right now, the capital was in turmoil.
Palace Rites Aizi had no choice but to activate all the spies.
There was nothing she could do. She could not be sure if the other party had activated them or if there were any spies around her.
After all, the relationship between Fu Sang and Xin Luo had long been 'even if I can't succeed, I can't let him succeed'.
This was not just a historical grudge.
It was also the inevitable result of practical benefits!
Xin Luo, which was across the sea from Fu Sang, was a country that had a close relationship with the empire under their feet for thousands of years.
They were also countries that competed for subsidies and aid.
The cake was only that big. If Fu Sang ate more, Xin Luo would eat less.
The deeper contradictions were the contradictions of the transcendent being.
In the East Sea, there were many islands.
The spirit aura tides washed the seabed of the East Sea.
Spirit objects appeared every year.
And Fu Sang and Xin Luo both wanted to monopolize this precious land.
Transcendent being of the two countries had been in constant conflict in the East China Sea for the past ten years!
If it weren't for the giant standing in the middle,.
They would have already started fighting each other.
After eating and drinking his fill, Ling Ping'an walked downstairs. It was already night time.
He turned on the light and looked at the time. It was 6:30 pm.
Then, he opened the bookstore door again.
He thought for a moment, found a piece of paper and a pen, and wrote a notice on it: the owner has something to do and will be away for a few days. He hopes that all the old and new customers can tell each other.
In fact, he understood that he was busy for nothing.
What old customers did he have here?
The new customers were almost extinct.
But, it was just for show.
After writing the notice, he put it in the drawer of the counter.
Then, he looked at the kitten, Bastet, on the counter.
“Little Darling…” he said, “It seems that you have to check in your pets!”
He knew that, for safety reasons, there was a rule on commercial airliners that all pets had to go through the check-in procedures.
“Meow!” the kitten meowed softly.
“Then it's settled!” Ling Ping'an patted its head. “You have to be good when the time comes!”
“Meow!”
The kitten meowed again, very docile.
Li An'an finally received her latest mission.
It was also the reason why she was summoned back to the imperial capital.
“Major Li An'an!” Her immediate superior, Lieutenant General Zhang Hui, personally handed the letter of appointment to her. “Contact the transcendent being representatives of various countries…”
“Everyone will work together to maintain order…”
“This is your mission!”
Countless question marks appeared above Li An'an's head.
“General… I don't know any foreign languages!” she said.
“It doesn't matter!” Lieutenant general Zhang Hui said, “They know the federal language!”
This was the truth. Who didn't know the federal language?
After the hundred-year war, the common language used in world diplomacy was the official language of the Federal Empire.
That was the etiquette.
This was the foundation laid down by the war, and also the embodiment of national power.
“But, I don't really understand the religious and ethnic taboos!” Li An'an tried her best to argue.
“It's okay… Lieutenant Chu understands!” Zhang Hui uttered with a smile, “Lieutenant Chu Weiwei is a top student of the Federal Empire's Central University.”
This was the result of the blackguard's research.
Should the koi be sent back to her most powerful position?
What could be better than a transcendent being's liaison officer to bring out this person's lucky halo?
