Tuoba Rui frowned slightly.
Although the Night Pavilion did not directly cause Hua Ruge to be seriously injured, he still bore the main responsibility; it would be strange if he did not kill in all four directions.
And because the Night Pavilion clearly knew of this point, they had no choice but to settle this matter through Hua Ruge.
After all, if there was anyone in this world who could persuade Tuoba Rui, it would definitely be Hua Ruge.
"Isn't it a little too late to try and calm down now that you've provoked me?" Tuoba Rui's gaze turned slightly cold.
He almost lost his little song.
Although Night Pavilion cannot be removed from the responsibility, he did say that during the interrogation of the Sixth Prince. Night Pavilion repeatedly told me not to kill me, so the consequences were still serious because I wanted to escape on purpose. "
"Even though my Night Pavilion was set up against me, they were regretful. After being tormented by you until half of their business was gone, it can be considered as their losses being heavy. Let's not bother about it anymore."
Hua Ruge said gently.
Tuoba Rui's brows relaxed slightly, and he compromised: "Then I'll go with you. Who knows what tricks they're playing, I can't let you be in danger."
"You are not fit to negotiate, and Ye Gongzi is a smart person, he knows what to do." Hua Ruge said confidently.
Tuoba Rui was still worried: "How can you be sure that they aren't dogs?"
"That's something a fool would do. Besides, I have Xiao Jin by my side, what else could happen to me?" Hua Ruge said as he drank the last mouthful of the porridge in his bowl and stood up with a smile.
Tuoba Rui said with an unpleasant expression on his face, "Do you really want to see another man alone that much?"
"I say, Battle King, let's just focus on the matter. We won't cause trouble for no reason." Hua Ruge didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
This man was like a child from time to time, making people helpless.
Tuoba Rui's face darkened even more. "You still say that I'm making trouble for him?"
"Alright, alright, I was wrong. I was wrong to use words." Hua Ruge walked to his side, bent down and kissed his lips, then looked at him and said: "I know you understand that nothing will happen to you this time, so please let me go, okay?"
Being kissed like that, the anger in Tuoba Rui's heart lessened by quite a bit. Afterwards, the more he looked at Hua Ruge, the more he liked him.
"Got it." Hua Ruge kissed him again, telling him to eat properly before he left.
Tuoba Rui sat on the spot and watched Hua Ruge leave. As soon as he lowered his head, he discontentedly frowned.
Damn it!
Why didn't she usually take the initiative?
Didn't she know how cute she looked when she was acting coquettishly?
Hua Ruge returned to her room and changed into a red cheongsam. Because the weather was gradually warming up, Lan Bing'er sent someone to deliver a batch of clothes she had made a while ago.
Not only did she normally wear a very formal set of clothes, they were all in consideration of her promotion to the first seat of the Danyang Peak.
Hua Ruge felt that his little sister had not acknowledged him for nothing. She would dress him up all year round, and the clothes she sent over were all the best.
She sized herself up in the mirror and lamented how lucky Tuoba Yu was to have found her wife.
In comparison, she felt a little ashamed of herself. She didn't know how to cook and normally wouldn't care about buying clothes for Tuoba Rui.
It seemed that if she were to get married in the future, she would have to learn more.
After she changed her clothes, she went out to the carriage with her 16 followers, all of them experts from the Prince's Mansion.0
Although she didn't think that there would be any danger, the scene still had to be arranged.
Although she had not gotten married, she was only representing the Battle King Manor this time, so she could not lose face.
Even knowing that he wanted to see the scheming Ye Gongzi, Hua Ruge was not the least bit nervous. He picked up a grape from the side of the carriage and started to eat.
But what surprised her was that she had only eaten a few before the carriage driver called out, "Esteemed wangfei, we've arrived."
She raised her eyebrows in surprise. She didn't walk too far.
After getting off the carriage, she stood in front of the mansion and discovered that this was the residence she was staying in. It was a huge courtyard with a sign that said 'Ye Residence'.
This place was located in a busy city, and since it was so blatant, the most important thing was that they were too close to where she and Tuoba Rui were standing at, so it wasn't appropriate for them to be their contact point.
Therefore, it was very likely that this was not the home of the Night Pavilion, but an estate used to receive her.
Thinking about it, even if Night Pavilion had the intention to negotiate, it would not reveal its own headquarters.
The door to the residence was currently open, and before the guards from the Duke Palaces could notify them, a person in his fifties, who looked like a butler walked out from inside the door. He gave Hua Ruge a deep bow and said respectfully, "Lord of The Wah, the Lord is already waiting for you inside, please follow this old servant in."
"How arrogant, my master actually didn't personally welcome you. Is this your sincerity?" The guards of the manor shouted.
The old steward's face showed a hint of uneasiness.
Hua Ruge raised his hand to stop the guard, and said to the old butler: "My subordinate is reckless, please do not blame the old uncle, lead the way."
"Yes, Lord, follow me." The butler sighed and turned to lead the way.
If Hua Ruge really put on airs, no one could do anything about it.
Although she called him "Lord" on the surface, everyone knew in their hearts that this was the princess concubine recognized by the Great Zheng Battle King, and that the person standing behind her was actually the Battle King.
Entering the courtyard, Hua Ruge only brought two bodyguards with her, with a casual expression on his face, as he looked around, with no airs of arrogance like how she usually did.
As they walked from the front yard to the main hall, they did not meet any servants. The layout of the house seemed to be normal, but it always gave off a gloomy and depressing feeling.
Hua Ruge thought for a while before understanding that the house's lighting was not bad. Many seemingly random buildings had blocked out the sunlight, and the walls were slightly darkened, making them extremely ventilated.
Walking among them, not mentioning that it was very rare, one could even feel the chilly wind blowing, it really fit the style of the Ye Gongzi.
Dark and deep.
She was looking forward to meeting this legendary figure soon.
Walking to the main hall, with the guards standing outside, Hua Ruge walked in and saw a man dressed in black slowly get up from the main seat.
This man was thin, had a feminine appearance, and pitch-black pupils that made people unable to see through them. He held a black folding fan in his hand, and upon seeing Hua Ruge, his expression was extremely courteous.
"I have long heard of the great reputation of the Lord of The Wah. It is my fortune to meet you today." The man in black spoke in a friendly tone, his voice soft and full of allure.
Hua Ruge raised his eyebrows in suspicion, but remained calm and collected as he nodded his head: "I do not dare, Ye Gongzi is the current great genius, my daughter had wanted to meet you a long time ago."
"Lord of The Wah has lifted you up. Quickly, take a seat." The man in black spoke, "Come, have a look at the tea."
