It wasn't until he left the room that Lu Li felt the pressure around his body ease a little, and his back was already wet with cold sweat.
"This is what it feels like to dance on the tip of a knife..."
Glancing at the waist badge in his hand, Lu Li revealed a wry smile. Recalling what happened before, he was almost wandering between life and death. If he was not careful, he might be killed by the moody King Yan.
The pressure of the powerful Mingyou is not so easy to bear.
But fortunately, he managed to get through it in the end, and got this waist card, and became a third-grade bodyguard in Prince Yan's Mansion.
As for the position of a third-grade bodyguard, Lu Li did not ask more, nor did he dare to ask. At least this is the first step to gain a foothold in the Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom. Even if the process is a bit tortuous, the result is always good.
"Congratulations, I saved your life."
At this moment, a cold voice sounded from behind, and Lu Li knew that it was Ge Xinyue who had followed him without turning around.
Turning around, Lu Li regained his playful and smiling expression, "Thank you, Sister Ge, for your help earlier."
Ge Xinyue said expressionlessly: "You can survive because your suggestions are of little use."
After saying that, she glanced at Lu Li lightly and said, "But now that you have entered Prince Yan's Mansion, I will say something up front."
"Please give me some advice from Sister Ge." Lu Li's heart trembled, knowing that Ge Xinyue was trying to tell him some rules.
No matter where it is, it has its rules. Even though Prince Yan's Palace seems to be in decline and can only be regarded as a low-ranking force among the nine palaces of the Holy Kingdom, it still represents the top power among the powerful powers of a country, so it must naturally have rules.
Lu Li had already had a premonition about this, so he was not surprised to hear Ge Xinyue mention it at this time.
"First of all, you have to understand that among the nine princes, except for Prince Yun, who is a prince with a different surname, the other eight princes are of royal blood. In other words, including Prince Yan's mansion, there are nine princes in the imperial capital, eight of whom are named Mu." Ge Xinyue glanced at Lu Li and said in a voice as light as smoke, "So you should know who cannot be offended in this imperial capital."
"Sister Ge, don't worry. I'm a newbie here, so I won't cause any trouble to Prince Yan's Mansion."
Lu Li sneered, understanding that Ge Xinyue was trying to knock him out. Don't think that you can walk around the imperial capital after entering Prince Yan's Mansion.
Although Mu Hongxiu is a prince, she is a woman after all, and she is not good at managing power. If she really uses the name of Prince Yan's Palace to act tyrannically, I am afraid that she will be beaten to death in less than two days and hanged. At the gate of the imperial capital.
"As long as you are aware of this." Ge Xinyue nodded and did not dwell on this issue too much. While leading Lu Li away, he said without looking back, "Also, you are now The third-grade guards in Prince Yan's Mansion are in the middle grade and enjoy a monthly salary of 300 yuan. The fourth-grade guards can be dispatched to the fifth- to ninth-grade guards. With the badge given to you by His Highness, you can do things conveniently in the palace these days, but I want to I would like to warn you that Nanyuan is the residence of His Highness, and there are usually restricted areas. It is the first restricted area in the mansion. Secondly, the Library Pavilion in Beiyuan, the Spiritual Beast Residence in Xiyuan, and the Lingyu Tower in Dongyuan are located. , don’t trespass unless necessary.”
Lu Li listened to her instructions, secretly remembered these places in his heart, and responded: "Thank you, Sister Ge, I will remember it."
Ge Xinyue paused, "Also, next time, call me Manager Ge."
"Sister Ge, don't be so harsh. There is no one around you now. Wouldn't it be more friendly to call her sister?" Although her tone was a bit cold, Lu Li could tell that she was not angry at all, so he smiled shyly.
Ge Xinyue looked at him, but did not continue to correct his title, and then said: "You have to remember that no matter which royal palace you are in, the hierarchy is very strict. The position of general manager is of the highest rank, and you have the same rank as the ministers. That’s fine with me, but don’t talk like this to another manager in the mansion.”
Lu Lileng asked: "Is there another general manager in the mansion?"
This was beyond his expectation.
Based on his understanding of the identity of the general manager, there should be only one person in a mansion.
Lu Li originally thought that Ge Xinyue was the only manager of this palace, only under King Yan, but he didn't expect that there was someone with the same status as her in the palace.
Seeing his surprised face, an imperceptible smile flashed across Ge Xinyue's expressionless face, and she said lightly: "The palace is divided into internal affairs and external affairs. I am responsible for internal affairs, large and small, and he is responsible for all external affairs. From then on, From now on, you are the person in charge."
The smile on Lu Li's face immediately froze.
He originally thought that he would have to deal with Ge Xinyue in the future. Although she was a cold-faced woman, from Lu Li's point of view, she did not have bad intentions. The several seemingly unintentional offers of help in front of King Yan proved that Ge Xinyue just seemed a little unkind.
If he could get by under her, Lu Li believed that he could still get along quite well.
That's why he shamelessly got close to Ge Xinyue along the way.
It's a pity that this little thought was resolved by Ge Xinyue's understatement.
"Then... Manager Ge, do you want to let me know a little bit about this manager? Is it easy to deal with this manager whom I have never met before?" Knowing that he had been tricked by Ge Xinyue, Lu Li smiled a little bitterly and also used the word manager. Bite hard.
Ge Xinyue glanced at him and said with a half-smile, "I was just a sister before, but now that there is no benefit, I immediately became Manager Ge?"
"It's all just to earn a living." Lu Li didn't blush and started talking to Ge Xinyue again.
It's a pity that Ge Xinyue didn't say anything again this time. She just led the way and explained a few taboos, taboos and rules of the Yan Palace from time to time, without any intention of revealing any information.
Seeing that he couldn't find anything else to say in her mouth, Lu Li sighed angrily and followed her as if resigned to his fate, but from time to time he glanced around with his exploratory eyes.
After all, I will hang out in this mansion from now on, and I always want to see if there is anything 'valuable' here.
After a while, the two left Nanyuan. After arriving at Dongyuan, Lu Li probably understood why Ge Xinyue refused to tell him more.
Because... this Dongyuan is obviously a training ground!
At this moment, there are dozens of guards with powerful auras in the field, practicing some kind of body-building boxing technique. The powerful force of energy and blood can almost scare ordinary people.
Lu Li also put away his playful smile and looked at the group of guards in front of him quietly without saying a word.
At this time, Ge Xinyue rarely showed a smile and said softly: "Steward Dongyuan is a first-class bodyguard of the palace. He is in charge of military power and has the same rank as a general. If you want to stand firm in Prince Yan's palace, just relying on your words is not enough. Woolen cloth."
As she said that, she turned around with a smile and said softly: "If you want to goof off, you'd better make yourself stronger first, Guard Lu."
