The Ghost of Fog
Chapter 78. Emperor's Visit
"Well, who's leaving?" zhang Qiaofeng asked with a serious look to all of his aides.
Right now, the Zhang family is in talks to choose the envoy who will represent him going to the two big cities, namely Stone Town and White River City.
"Just me!" exclaimed Lin Tian quickly.
For some reason, the girl's face became radiant and a second later she immediately replied, "Good, I'm coming too!!"
"Huh?? How could that be??" zhang Hongli chimed in, seemingly inadmissive.
"Why indeed?" Zhang Qiaofeng asked, his face flat.
"Ekhm.begini, Feng'er you are now the leader of this Zhang family. And as a leader, you can't just wander around, out there full of danger. Better, Lin Tian left with Minghao or Lu Jia Li alone." Zhang Hongli explained.
Suddenly, the previously radiant face became crumpled and grim. Zhang Qiaofeng was even a stubborn girl, yet she was not a fool. This girl understood that her grandfather's words were a little more true as well.
"All right." she finally answered.
"Then, I don't mind going with Lin Tian." Lu Jia Li said.
Hearing this, Zhang Qiaofeng's eyes turned sharp. After which, he quickly said, "Uncle Minghao!! Lin Tian will go with uncle Minghao!!"
It worked!! Thought Lu Jia Li. He had indeed intentionally wanted to see his sister's reaction once he accepted the offer to accompany Lin Tian. He secretly felt amused himself to see how much Zhang Qiaofeng was very irritable when his personal bodyguard was close to another woman.
"Well Miss, when are we leaving?" finally Lin Tian asked.
"Just later, can you?"
"Of course Miss!"
...****************...
Right at noon, as already conveyed at the meeting earlier this morning, Lin Tian and Minghao were already preparing to leave for Stone City and White River City.
"Be careful Lin Tian, uncle." Zhang Qiaofeng said as soon as he and the two envoys arrived before the gate of the residence.
"Yes Miss!" lin Tian and Minghao replied in unison before these two people flashed vanished from there.
The first city they would go to was Stone Town. Which of these Golden Cities, should take about a month. This was natural because the location of the Golden City was the furthest from the Heaven Wall Mountains, while the city of the territory of the other six Ruler Families was close to the mountains.
A month passed and they had arrived at the top of a hill. From the top of here, they could already see how down there stood a magnificent city at the Eastern end of the city, there was a huge stone quarry.
"Well, what a tiring journey." murmured Minghao as he sighed.
"I didn't think it was a day, but they knew it. Hm.I guess they have an informant whose tracking ability is as great as the Heavenly Crow Association."
"If it's true, it's terrible. We need to hurry up and get this job done and get home."
"You're right, then let's go down!!" replied Lin Tian who immediately dashed down the hill.
Within a month of this journey, there was one problem that became a "sufferer" for these two messengers. It was a fact that the Black faction Alliance already knew of the establishment of the new Zhang family!!
That was why Minghao had complained like that. This was not surprising since during the journey towards this Stone City, the two of them had always been blocked by the people of the Black faction Alliance. Of course this thing irritated their hearts a little.
Meanwhile at the Zhang Family residence, right on the day after Lin Tian and Minghao's departure, Zhang's residence was visited by fifties of elite horsemen.
"Hm? What's the matter?" zhang Hongli muttered puzzled as soon as he and Lu Tuoli opened the gate.
In the midst of the fifty cavalry, there was a magnificent horse carriage. Made of selected wood and beautifully carved, on some sides there are also carvings made of pure gold.
As soon as he saw the appearance of Zhang Hongli, a front-most warrior who seemed to be the leader jumped down from the horse and saluted.
"Is it true that these two masters are members of the Zhang family?" the question is polite and subtle.
Seeing this attitude, it would be bad if the two old men did not repay the person's respect. They immediately went in and answered.
"True, we are the Zhang family" Zhang Hongli said.
When the man's face was delighted, he called one of his companions and whispered, and the man hurried to the carriage and saluted.
Zhang Hongli and Lu Tuoli looked astonished at all of that, but they were silent. Not long after, came out the person who had been sitting in the car, someone who made the two people surprised instead of playing.
"Emperor!?" there was a stifled cry from Lu Tuoli's mouth.
Once this emperor came out, from behind him appeared a very beautiful and graceful woman, followed by two young women who were handsome and beautiful like both parents.
"Oh...Is this until the glorious Emperor comes to this little place?" asked Lu Tuoli respectfully.
"I want to meet someone here." continued the emperor.
"Sorry, Your Majesty, who would you like to meet in our family?" this time Zhang Hongli asked.
"Is it true that the Misty Ghost Swordsman Lin Tian is in this house? According to my guy who was driving around town yesterday, he accidentally saw it among your entourage."
Lu Tuoli was surprised to hear this, he did not expect that a bodyguard like Lin Tian would be sought after by the emperor. In contrast to Zhang Hongli who was a bit much already able to read the situation.
"Sorry a thousand Your Majesty, but Lin Tian just left one day ago to carry out his duties. And he will be home maybe in about a month or so." Zhang Hongli replied.
Hearing this remark, Chu Rou and Chu Wei appeared slightly disappointed. Zhang Hongli said again.
"However, we can host you here until Lin Tian's return. If Your Majesty doesn't mind, come in and enjoy our banquet."
"Well, thank you so much, I thank you for your banquet. But I won't wait here until his return, just today." replied the emperor with a smile.
"What a great honor for us, let's enter Your Majesty."
While saying, Zhang Hongli signaled to Lu Tuoli with a glance. Then he went to his grandson's room and Lu Tuoli escorted the group to the spacious hall room.
"Feng...Feng!!" zhang Hongli exclaimed as he shook his grandson's body.
As soon as he arrived at his grandson's room, how shocked the old man was to see that the person he was looking for was still sleeping under a thick blanket. Even his mouth still drains saliva.
"Eff...." Zhang Qiaofeng complained slowly and turned his back to his grandfather.
Zhang Hongli who was feeling anxious, clenched his hands and immediately snapped, "Wake up lazy brat!! The emperor came here to look for your bodyguards!! Get up and greet him!!"
Instantly this girl immediately jumped up on her bed with wide eyes.
"Sincerely grandpa!?"
"Why am I lying? Take a shower and come to the hall!" zhang Hongli replied.
Like a flying swallow, with the science of lightening her body that has reached a high level, this girl quickly jumped into the bedroom mandai and carried out her grandfather's orders.
Zhang Hongli sighed and left the room to entertain the emperor.
...****************...
In the hall room, the emperor's family was entertained with food cooked by Lu Tuoli's younger brothers and assisted by Lu Jia Li. Since you don't have a waiter yet, what can you do?
Not long after, came a beautiful girl from the inner room, dressed in sky blue. His steps were calm and smooth to the point that he could barely hear the sound of his footsteps.
The emperor's family was like hypnotized, looking at this newly arrived girl with an unblinking look. Unfeeling, the emperor's and Chu Wei's cheeks became slightly flushed.
The emperor's conscious wife first, seeing how her husband looked at the girl with an enchanted look, she puffed up her cheeks and pinched her husband's stomach violently.
"Hehe sorry.sorry.." That's all the emperor could say with a bitter smile.
Because he just woke up and rushed, Zhang Qiaofeng only wore makeshift makeup, but it must be admitted that the face was too beautiful.
"I'm sorry for my delay in coming to greet His Majesty" said the girl.
"No problem, I was the one who was wrong for coming suddenly." the emperor stood up and retorted.
Suddenly this made the Zhang family amazed instead of playing. It was never suspected that the first person in the South would repay the respect of people with such respect.
After these two people sat down at their respective places, they resumed their activities to eat drinking the simple dish.
...****************...
"What's this about? Why are you guys driving us out so rudely!?" minghao snapped in disbelief at the treatment of the gatekeeper.
"I told you, this is the great sir's order!! How can a lowly guard like me dare to argue!!" replied the guard who did not lose fiercely.
"Uncle.please explain what happened so that we don't leave curiously." this time Lin Tian asked. His voice was softer and more patient.
"Can't!! That is a secret that cannot be leaked to outsiders! Now go, you!!"
