Chapter 57: Qiu Bailu, the Game Within the Game
Nine o'clock in the evening, in the courtyard of Nohan.

This is a secret club where garden balls are often held among the aristocratic circles. The path leading to the garden is dark and luxurious. To enter, various credentials and secret cards are required.

With the support of Yazi's intelligence network, these are naturally not difficult problems.

Lin Yan brought Liu Ruyan and successfully entered the secret garden.

Several dancers were dancing gracefully, but it was obvious that no one present had the heart to appreciate the dance; the atmosphere was active yet depressing.

The nobles were chatting in groups of three or five, standing in clear lines, looking around from time to time, not knowing what they were observing.

"You came."

Shu Qi waved her arm and greeted Lin Yan.

This girl with a big nerve can always do unexpected things in any situation.

"Um……"

Lin Yan nodded and looked around: "Qiu Bailu hasn't come yet!?"

Shu Qi curled her lips and said, "I don't know what the three Yu families are doing. Their actions have been very strange in the past few days. I don't think Qiu Bailu will show up for a while.

But according to reliable intelligence, she should still appear, so don't be impatient."

"Um……"

Lin Yan took a sip of red wine and looked at the dancers: "These dancers are not simple..."

Shu Qi nodded: "I felt it too, but I don't know who arranged this."

"..."

The dance is over.

The scene fell into a subtle silence.

Several nobles walked in gracefully.

"Mr. Zheng and the others are here."

Many nobles who were originally standing far apart all looked over at the same time with smiles on their faces.

The nobles present were divided into three levels, and the most common nobles were almost all in the marginal positions.

The nobles who were members of parliament were all around Lin Yan.

The people who just walked in were obviously the executive nobles who were in cahoots with Ya Zi.

"Mr. Zheng, Mr. Chang..."

The nobles were very respectful to these people.

They all responded with a smile, and finally, their eyes fell on Shu Qi.

Elder Zheng came over and whispered, "All arrangements have been made. We are allies now. If there is any conflict later, don't do anything to stab us in the back.

You and I both know how powerful the three royal families are."

"Of course, Ya Zi always keeps his word. On the contrary, you old foxes are the ones who know how many tricks are in your mind."

Shu Qi grinned and looked up and down at several standing councillors.

"Cough cough..."

Mr. Zheng and Mr. Chang both coughed to hide their embarrassment.

At this moment, the waiter came over quickly: "Miss Qiu Bailu is here."

"The show is about to begin."

Mr. Zheng sneered with a firm look in his eyes.

"Oh, there are quite a lot of people here!"

Qiu Bailu was wearing a white gauze dress, looking elegant and confident, with the demeanor of a pampered young lady.

Mr. Zheng looked at his confidants and smiled after receiving a positive response: "Thank you, Miss Qiu, for giving me some face and attending this party."

"Hmm~"

Qiu Bailu sat elegantly on the chair, and the two maids beside her served her: "Aren't you all some hermits who don't care about the fight for the throne? Why are you suddenly trying to help our Qiu family seize the throne this time?"

"Hehe, things are different now. The rebellion is getting worse and worse, and the core city is also quite uneasy. We can all feel that... the general situation is about to change."

Mr. Zheng smiled slightly.

"You are indeed old hands. You are quite sensitive to the changes in the wind direction."

Qiu Bailu took a sip of red wine and remained calm.

Every time there is a change of term in three years, there will be nobles who band together to blackmail one of the three great families. If their conditions are met, the vote for the change of term will be cast for that family.

Although the words sound nice, underneath they are all threats and negotiations of interests.

"Tell me, what are the conditions this year? How much money do you need to vote for our Qiu family?"

Qiu Bailu directly brought up the topic, with a warning look between her eyebrows: "Before I speak, I want to warn you that the significance of this election is completely different from the previous ones. I advise you not to ask for too much."

"Miss Qiu, you're worrying too much. We won't charge you a penny this time."

Mr. Chang grinned.

"Oh? That's interesting."

Qiu Bailu narrowed her eyes, waiting for the next words from the old foxes.

"We have called Miss Qiu here just to discuss with you... We hope that the Qiu family can vote for the Zheng family in this throne election."

Executive Zheng smiled but his true intentions were exposed.

"This joke is not funny."

Qiu Bailu was extremely indifferent: "Do you want to overthrow the system of the Three Imperial Families?!" "The system of the Three Imperial Families? We are just calling it that, do you really take it seriously? When has the Three Imperial Families system ever been recorded in the laws of the alliance!?"

Mr. Chang is very cold.

Qiu Bailu glanced at a few people, her expression still calm and indifferent: "You shameless old guys, what gave you the confidence to think that you are qualified to provoke the three imperial families!?

You can’t afford the consequences of teasing me!”

"Miss Qiu, I urge you to see the situation clearly. We are not the only nobles standing here."

Mr. Zheng directly let Shu Qi out: “There is also the distinguished representative from Ya Zi.

If you, Miss Qiu, do not agree to our terms, we will hand you over to Ya Zi for processing."

"You are really brave. Just based on this one thing, I am enough to kill your entire family!"

Qiu Bailu was not at all flustered and said calmly.

"Since Miss Qiu won't cry until she sees the coffin, we have no choice but to control you first and force the Qiu family to submit."

Mr. Zheng sneered.

What was said just now was nothing more than testing each other. They certainly wouldn't be so stupid as to expect the Qiu family to agree to such conditions.

There is only one purpose tonight, and that is to cooperate with Ya Zi to kidnap Qiu Bailu and force her to confess the internal problems of the three royal families!
"There is definitely a big problem within the three families. Do you still think you have concealed it well? You have already become weak inside and outwardly united!"

Chang Lao sneered: "Tonight, we will hear with our own ears the secrets hidden in Miss Qiu's mind!"

Qiu Bailu drank the red wine in the glass and said, "It seems that you are quite confident. A fool is still a fool no matter how many years he lives. An old fox is still a beast no matter how old he is~"

"Catch this sharp-tongued little girl!"

Mr. Zheng waved his hand.

Suddenly, more than a hundred masters rushed into the entire garden, all of them were masters above level six, there were more than a dozen level seven masters, and there was even an eight-level super warrior!
"That's it? As expected, the struggle of an ant is ridiculous."

Qiu Bailu curled her lips, speechless.

"With such a luxurious lineup, it's easy to take down a little girl like you!"

The masters all took action.

"Tsk tsk, noble princess of the Qiu family, tonight I will let you feel what rudeness means!"

The leading eighth-level warrior was extremely confident and extremely fast. He came in front of Qiu Bailu in one step and grabbed Qiu Bailu's neck with his big hand.

"laugh!"

The moment he grabbed Qiu Bailu's neck, his arms stiffened and stopped suddenly.

"What!?"

The eighth-level super soldier was startled and looked at his heart.

The two delicate maids beside Qiu Bailu actually attacked together, and their two pairs of delicate hands directly pierced his chest.

Then, in the shocked eyes of everyone, the super soldier's entire body withered rapidly, and was finally sucked dry until he was reduced to a piece of human skin. Even his bones turned into residue, and he fell limply to the ground.

The strongest fighting force was killed instantly in one encounter!
Lin Yan frowned.

The two maids hid themselves so perfectly that even he didn't notice anything.

"Two eighth-level warriors!?"

"An eighth-rank expert serving as a maid? The Qiu family is really crazy!"

"Haha, it's clearly a special dish prepared for us."

Old Zheng looked very unhappy: "But you Qiu family is really capable of making two eighth-level masters lose face and even disguise themselves as maids."

"Don't tell me that this is all you have? You want to capture the daughter of the Qiu family just because a super soldier betrayed you? That's ridiculous."

Qiu Bailu sneered: "It doesn't hurt to tell you, your little thoughts and every move are under the surveillance of our three families!

I have long wanted to find an opportunity to catch all of you disobedient old things in one fell swoop. Now that I have this opportunity tonight, none of you can leave here!"

Qiu Bailu waved her hand with a stern look on her face.

The Lin family will propose a resolution to restore the monarchy at this parliament, which will put a lot of pressure on the Fang and Qiu families.

Now we must first annex these rebellious nobles. First, to integrate more resources to deal with the Lin family, and second, to avoid being attacked from all sides at that time.

"Everything you do is within our calculations! Get started!"

Qiu Bailu gave an order.

The dancers in the field immediately bared their fangs.

Dozens of dancers, all of them are seventh-level masters!
In an instant, the whole garden was filled with demons dancing wildly, all kinds of talents were revealed, dozens of dancers suddenly jumped up, and in a blink of an eye, all of Zheng Lao's men were slaughtered.

The garden was filled with blood and corpses were scattered all over the ground.

"what happened!?"

It was the first time that Mr. Zheng and Mr. Chang were truly moved.

This is their base camp, completely their territory, but it turns out that all the dancers are people planted by the three royal families! ?
"You can't get out, so just surrender."

Qiu Bailu looked down at everyone with pride, as noble as a queen: "The Fang and Qiu families have surrounded this place tightly, no one of you can leave safely today!

You are all trapped in a jar now! Get down on your knees!"

"The Fang and Qiu families..."

Lin Yan muttered.

This information is worth savoring...
