After Li Ruoxuan promptly left the Qi Residence with his entourage, the news was immediately sent to Jiang Yeqian by a spy.
Zhao Xin bowed slightly and said, "Your Excellency, the State Preceptor has left Qi Residence."
Jiang Yeqian's pacing steps suddenly paused. He stamped the ground forcefully with his crutch and demanded, "What expression did he have?"
"Our people said that it wasn't too great," Zhao Xin cautiously said. "But the spy also said that he did not bring the chest of gold back with him."
Jiang Yeqian's expression was getting uglier. "So the proposal was a success?"
Zhao Xin shook his head. "If it were a success the State Preceptor wouldn't be wearing such an expression. So this servant thinks that it probably didn't succeed."
"Would he have given Qi Qingyao a chest of gold for free if the proposal wasn't a success? You fool!!"
