Xiuhuan and Xiao Liu were now inside Tianwu city. The horse-drawn carriage carrying the Tributes for the Kingdom they brought continued to advance towards the Haitian palace.
The palace looked so majestic and was located exactly in the middle of Tianwu city. The palace was towering, no buildings around it were able to match it, except in the Northern part of the Haitian palace.
The Northern part of the Haitian palace was where the Heavenly Sword Sect, the largest and strongest Sect in the entire Han Kingdom was. The building of the Sect looked so majestic, rivaling the splendor of the Haitian Palace.
"Well .. magnificent!" Xiao Liu was amazed by the splendor of the Haitian Palace.
"Cih, what a magnificent thing, but the people alone can not be taken care of. There should be no kingdom. He knew he only accepted the Tribute every year, but the little people were left oppressed by corrupt officials and clans who acted as little kings." Xiuhuan even pulled out his tits.
"Hey, stupid don't talk too hard! You want us beheaded here." Xiao Liu was frightened by Xiuhuan's words.
"I speak the truth, look at those beggars and those poor-clothed people! Just a step away from that magnificent palace" Xiuhuan said.
Xiao Liu only took a deep breath, he did not understand since when Xiuhuan cared about the surroundings. Whereas in the Blue Lotus Sect, he even often troublemakers.
They then approached the Haitian palace, but suddenly a message pigeon perched on Xiuhuan's shoulders. He then checked the contents of the message. His forehead shriveled reading the message.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Liu asked Xiuhuan, as he saw a grim expression emanating from his face.
"Damn Tang Yin that! He gave me a tough job." Xiuhuan handed the message to Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu then read the message. He laughed gigglingly, as Xiuhuan was tasked with bribing judges who would investigate the mysterious death cases of important figures in Hua city.
"He only gave me a small salary, but the task given by Tang Yin's shackles was heavy. Later, I will have to ask for double the wages again when we return to Hua City." Xiuhuan chatted, he was confused as to how to find information on which judge would be assigned to investigate the case.
"That's your pain, don't take me on this mission, because I ordered this I wasn't included .. hahahaha." Xiao Liu laughed at Xiuhuan, he was so happy to see Xiuhuan dizzy so.
Not long after the second pigeon perched on his shoulder with a bag of gold. Xiuhuan checked the number, which turned out to be only 1000 pieces of gold.
"What the hell is this Tang Yin, when bribing judges with this kind of money. It can only strike the mayor's class!" Xiuhuan was again carried away by emotions with the heavy duty he carried.
Xiao Liu chuckled again, he felt Xiuhuan had fallen down the stairs anyway.
A little while later they arrived at the gates of the Haitian Palace. The gate guards immediately stopped their carriage.
"Say your purpose!' The guard approached them.
Xiuhuan handed over his duty letter to the Guard. Then the guard saw the contents of his letter which turned out to deliver tribute.
"Follow me!" said the Guard led them to the Treasurer Pavilion in charge of receiving tribute from these sects in the Han kingdom.
They then arrived at the Treasurer Pavilion. It looked like a fat man surrounded by five beautiful women was relaxing. He was engrossed in eating the fruit that the beautiful women fed.
"Mr Jiu Yuan! The envoy from the Blue Lotus Sect came carrying the Tribute!" The gatekeeper reported.
Jiu Yuan waved his hand, while glancing at Xiao Liu. He was captivated to see the beauty of the girl.
"Just be jealous!" xiuhuan whispered softly into Xiao Liu's ear.
Xiuhuan simply smiled wryly and saluted the Royal treasurer.
"Where are your papers?" Jiu Yuan stood up from his seat. The beautiful woman around him took a few steps back from him.
The gatekeeper then went forward giving out their duty letter.
"It turns out it's just a small sect" Jiu Yuan said softly. "Move everything into the warehouse!" Jiu Yuan told his sons to bring the horse carriage into the barn.
Xiuhuan and Xiao Liu remained silent. Jiu Yuan smiled at them and let them sit down. Xiuhuan and Xiao Liu then sat down.
Jiu Yuan walked slowly and approached Xiao Liu. He held the shoulder of the beautiful girl. Xiao Liu looked uneasy, but did not dare to act. Afraid that they would be punished for fighting the Kingdom officials.
"Hey pretty girl .. Will you be my concubine!" he said as he fumbled at Xiao Liu's shoulder.
Xiuhuan also appeared to be uncomfortable with Jiu Yuan's behavior. "Sorry your master is late, he is already engaged to the Yin Clan's Son from Yan Luo city."
"Ah, just a kid from a little Clan so. If they object, I can flatten their Clan today as well."
Jiu Yuan answered Xiuhuan's words. His hand was still clinging onto Xiao Liu's shoulder. However, this time he was willing to kiss Xiao Liu's cheek.
Xiao Liu closed his eyes, he was terrified. Xiao Liu immediately regretted his stupidity, why would he even want to come to the capital. Xiuhuan had told him that he rested when he was wounded during the Assassin attack in Hua city.
Jiu Yuan's monstrous lips began to move closer to Xiao Liu's cheeks, even as his hands began to move downward. He had no shame at all, whereas there was Xiuhuan and some Royal Troops as well.
"Sorry sir, Xiao Liu should go ... The Heavenly Sword Sect elder has been waiting for us. Can we leave this room?"
Jiu Yuan stopped when he heard the name of the Heavenly Sword Sect. He stared at Xiuhuan.
"Do you want to lie to me? You think I'm a kid, yeah!" Jiu Yuan approached Xiuhuan.
Xiuhuan casually took out an invitation letter from the Heavenly Sword Sect. He gave the letter to Jiu Yuan.
Xiao Liu seemed to be breathing deeply. She was grateful, Xiuhuan saved her for the second time, having previously been saved from Yin Song while in Yan Luo city.
Some clear water droplets dripped from his eyelids, he then rubbed them because he did not want to look weak. For he believed that Jiu Yuan would become even more so if he were weak.
"Curtain, go there!"
Jiu Yuan drove Xiuhuan away and they left. Xiao Liu immediately clasped Xiuhuan's hand, he was afraid that Jiu Yuan would change his mind and hold him here.
"Just wait for Liu'er .. I'll pick you up to Hua hahahaha."
Jiu Yuan laughed broadly at their departure. Xiao Liu could only give up, already two strange people were eyeing him. He was even more sorry to leave Hua City. The kingdom was not what he imagined.
