The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 1038

[Chapter 1038: Qi’s Attack]

“Ah, oh.”

The housekeeper dared to believe what he heard only after hearing Lin Tian’s words again. Eating is really a bit too outrageous for the people now.

The housekeeper followed Lin Tian to the city and walked into a wine shop. After the two ordered some side dishes and half a catty of wine, they began to eat and drink.

If the emperor, Gan Mao, Zhang Yang, the fast horse censor and others saw Lin Tian so leisurely, they would definitely be surprised.

Others may be busy with things tonight, only Lin Tian is here leisurely drinking a little wine.

Lin Tian chose a seat by the window on the second floor. Looking out, he could see the street outside the restaurant. There

were endless pedestrians on the road, and the sounds of hawking, talking, and bargaining were endless.

Lin Tian felt a sense of tranquility in this noisy market. In this tranquility, Ming Tian seemed to have a feeling of being at home.

After taking a sip of wine, Lin Tian looked out the window again.

This time, what he saw was not only the tranquility just now, but also some different panic from it. This chaos broke the tranquility just now and made Lin Tian feel a little uncomfortable.

“Master, what’s wrong with you?”

The housekeeper frowned when he saw Lin Tian looking out the window, thinking that Lin Tian saw something that made him unhappy, so he quickly asked.

“Nothing?”

Tian Tian took a sip of wine and continued to look out the window, and said to the housekeeper at the same time: “Housekeeper, you have to look at the scene outside the window.”

After hearing what Lin Tian said, the housekeeper also looked out the window from the top of the mountain, but he did not have the same artistic conception as Lin Tian, and he only saw the noisy market.

“Tell me, what did you see from it?”

Lin Tian saw that the housekeeper was also looking out the window, so he asked him.

“I didn’t see anything from it, and I hope the young master will be generous with his advice.”

The housekeeper really didn’t see it, and all he saw was noise.

“I saw tranquility in this noise, and this tranquility was broken by this noise.”

Lin Tian’s words made the housekeeper confused. If other people were here, they would definitely say the same thing. Not to mention the housekeeper, even if other people were here, they would not know what you were talking about.

Although the housekeeper was very confused, he did not say it out loud, but scratched his head and went to eat his own food.

After seeing this scene, Lin Tian just wanted to use some modern poetic and picturesque words to express the scene in front of him, but he gave up the idea.

Because, even if he could express it, there would be someone who could understand it here. If there were two poets and writers gathered here, he could be so coquettish, but now forget it.

Thinking of this, Lin Tian sighed in his heart, and then continued to lower his head and drink a glass of wine to express his unspeakable melancholy.

After an unknown amount of time, the previous dusk had disappeared, leaving only a silent night and the lights from the houses on both sides of the street.

“Master, stop drinking. Isn’t it time?”

When the butler felt that the time was almost up, he reminded Lin Tian.

“Oh? Is it time? Then let’s take a look here.”

Lin Tian was a little confused after drinking. After hearing the butler’s words, he woke up instantly.

“Here? If something unexpected happens, isn’t it too dangerous here?”

The butler thought that this was a restaurant and there were no security measures around. Therefore, he wanted Lin Tian to go to the palace quickly. He would only feel at ease if he stayed by the emperor’s side.

“I know what you are thinking. Do you think that being by the emperor’s side in the palace is the safest? I tell you, you guessed wrong. Being by the emperor’s side is not the safest, but the most dangerous.”

If the plan went wrong, the emperor might become the target of public criticism, so he would not be safe around him. Lin Tian also thought of this, so he did not say to stay by the emperor’s side, but chose a seemingly dangerous place early.

That is, in this restaurant now. The restaurant is a place where news gathers, and it is also the best place to inquire about news. If an unexpected situation occurs, this place will definitely be the first to know.

After some consideration, Lin Tiancai made this decision. He also took the housekeeper with him for his safety.

After hearing what Lin Tian said, the housekeeper was a little anxious and almost jumped up and down, but seeing that Lin Tian did not want to leave, he could only stay with Lin Tian.

“Housekeeper, you can rest assured to stay with me. Even if you want an accident, I am still reluctant. Just watch the performance of Qi State next.”

After Lin Tian comforted the housekeeper, he asked the waiter to continue serving some dishes and wine, wanting to stay here.

Seeing that Lin Tian insisted on doing so, the housekeeper could not leave alone, not to mention that he would not leave Lin Tian alone. He could only bite the bullet and continue to drink with Lin Tian.

While Lin Tian and the housekeeper were drinking, some people in black quietly lurked in a dense forest ten kilometers outside the city, and then quickly approached the city wall.

The visual range was affected at night, and the people who came were dressed in black, walking in the night, blending into the darkness, and it was even more difficult to find. So when they arrived at the city wall, they still didn’t see the men in black.

In the dark night, the city gates were closed, and they had no way to enter the city, but they were all agile and relied on their iron claws to easily climb up the city wall, like heroes flying over eaves and walls in the dark.

After they climbed up the city wall easily, they took out the knives hidden on their bodies and instantly wiped out the people standing guard on the city wall. Their agility was incredible.

Just as they jumped off the city wall, many people came out from other beacon towers and surrounded them. Then the two parties fought each other.

“Oh no, oh no, the State of Qi has invaded…”

Lin Tian, who was drinking, suddenly heard someone shouting in the corner tower, and then everyone on the fifth floor ran away. Only Lin Tian and the housekeeper did not leave. The store owner quickly closed the door and did not plan to let them leave, so he locked them in the restaurant.

“Store owner, what’s going on? Why are all the customers gone? You are still closed? It should not be closing time yet.”

Seeing such a scene, Lin Tian asked the store owner who had just locked the door.

“Sir, I don’t know what happened. The State of Qi has invaded.”
