Heaven-Bearing Hall of the Great Zhou Imperial Palace was where the Holy Son of Heaven of Great Zhou, Benevolent Sovereign, normally handled court affairs and received important ministers in private.
At this moment, Grand Celestial Master Wu Yu of the Heavenly Patrol Division stood within Heaven-Bearing Hall, respectfully holding a secret dossier as he waited for Benevolent Sovereign Ji Long to inspect it.
"Minister Wu, from the sound of it, you seem to be trying to claim credit too. You are telling Me now that Ye Zhen is a Wind Patrol Special Envoy of your Heavenly Patrol Division—why did you not say so earlier?" Benevolent Sovereign had no intention of examining the secret dossier, his face filled with doubt.
"Your Majesty, Wind Patrol Special Envoys hold a special status within the Heavenly Patrol Division. Every one of them plays a pivotal role. In terms of secrecy, they rank even above the Shadow Scouts of the Heavenly Patrol Division's Dark Division and cannot be exposed lightly. Therefore, this subject previously dared not mention this matter in the slightest!"
"Furthermore, because of the Heavenly Patrol Division, this subject knew what Princess Changle was doing on this journey and understood the significance of her successful return. If this subject had stated this openly and let Princess Changle know that the Heavenly Patrol Division had also planted personnel at her side, I fear she would..." Grand Celestial Master Wu Yu wisely stopped there.
Who was Benevolent Sovereign Ji Long? Naturally, he understood Grand Celestial Master Wu Yu's unspoken meaning. If Changle learned that her father had planted secret agents beside her, she would likely become displeased. Besides, it would not sound good if word spread.
That struck right at Benevolent Sovereign's heart. Such matters in the imperial family could be done, but not spoken
