Lisa quickly found his grandfather in the garden talking with Princess May.

By the princess's expression, Lisa didn't want to imagine what his grandfather said to her.

He rubbed his forehead silently. These two were truly troublemakers. Unfortunately for him, they were also his family.

"Prime Minister Leo Manoban, is there any important matter today?" Lisa called with an indifferent tone to his grandfather.

He followed by greeting the two people on the side, "Princess May and Ashan."

May smiled kindly, "We are just talking about the recent events in Ming City."

Despite Mya brushing the matter off like that, Lisa knew that his grandfather's mouth was not that kind.

He peered off to his grandfather with inquiring eyes, but his grandfather just put an innocent expression on his face, not showing any trace of his wrongdoing.

"Is the trade going well, Princess May?" Lisa shifted the topic.

May nodded her head, "There is nothing that you need to worry about, General Lisa. We have come to terms about the trade, and we won't change the agreement blindly."

Hearing her answer, Lisa smiled slightly. His handsome face looked even more dangerous for a moment and May was stunned.

With this pair of devilish faces, she truly wondered what their child would look like.

Both the man and woman were simply too attractive!

"Ashan, is there any problem?"

Ashan shook his head, "I just hope you can stay away from Princess May. If there is anything you need to discuss, I'm here to lend my ear."

"There is no need for that," Lisa arched his eyebrow and pointed his chin to his grandfather.

"I'm only here to take the Prime Minister away because there are other important matters this old man had to do."

Lei glared at his grandson. He had already finished his task, so this youngster must be lying to take him away from this place.

If this young man wanted to give him more tasks, he should prepare himself to write a few meter essays for the emperor to complain about this annoying grandson of his.

"Thank you, General Lisa," May showed her gratitude.

Leo felt that he was hated by them as Lisa pulled him away. Not literally as Leo walked by himself to follow Lisa after saying his farewell to the two people behind them.

When they have reached far enough, May's face contorted.

"Is he a prime minister?" She looked towards Ashan with indignant eyes.

Ashan shrugged his shoulder and put on a slight smile. He had only met with Leo once previously and his image of this old man was indeed someone annoying.

Of course, he didn't question the other party's skill in negotiation.

He was more curious about the other party's ability to talk nonsense as that was basically what that old man did for hours.

"He is indeed the prime minister."

May was speechless when she saw  Ashan's nonchalant manner, "Someone like him would have already been smacked in Gu Yue Kingdom."

"Long Kingdom is essentially different from the Gu Yue Kingdom. The river had separated the two areas for decades and with time, the culture became different. You shouldn't assume that the people here are the same as the ones in our kingdom," Ashan explained calmly.

May nodded her head and picked up the cup on the table. In any case, the negotiation was over and only some formalities were left.

She was not really in a hurry for she enjoyed her time here quite well.

There were so many interesting things to do aside from reviewing the trade with Jackson and trying to strike here and there.

"Let's return to rest."

Ashan waved his hand and Steward Du came forward.

He prepared the carriage while Ashan told the servants about their departure. There was nothing else they needed to do in the palace for today.

On the other hand, Lisa dragged his grandfather back to the hall. Jackson stared at the two incoming people helplessly.

He was about to return to his workroom and now they came to the hall again. What was it this time?

"Lisa, you little annoying brat," Leo retorted indignantly, "Why did you take me away from that place? I have not finished talking to that princess and Ashan."

"If you stay there for a second longer, I don't doubt the image of Long Kingdom would plummet in their eyes," Lisa answered in a cold voice.

With his grandfather's conduct, there was no better representative than him if one wanted to make other people's impressions worsen.

"Not that I want to do that," Lisa shrugged.

Jackson rubbed his forehead, "Prime Minister, please don't forget that there is another stack of work for you to do. I have ordered the servant to put them in your workroom."

"What? I have finished the last batch, right?" Leo asked indignantly.

He had finished his work, okay?

What did this young emperor mean when he said that there was another batch of work again?

Did he unintentionally offend the two of them?

Internally, he complained vehemently as he truly wished that someone could be on his side for once.

He was not a working machine, alright!

"That was the work for last week," Jackson explained.

He looked at Leo's darkened expression as the old man was on the verge of an explosion.

He shrugged his shoulder and waved his hand. Shu 'kindly' led Leo to his workroom where numerous papers were already put there.

The sight nearly made the old man truly explode in anger.

Lisa approved Jackson's action for he did think that his grandfather's workload was not as much as before.

Originally, Jackson wanted to decrease the old man's work in consideration of his old age, but after seeing Lisa's expression, he changed his mind.

"It's already afternoon. Don't you need to accompany your wife?" Jackson shifted the topic.

Lisa nodded his head. He wanted to return and spend his time with Jennie again.

He walked outside the hall and went towards the stairs when he abruptly stopped his step. His line of sight was looking around carefully.

From this distance, there was nothing wrong could be seen. However, his sense had been sharpened over the years of his time as the general.

He knew. There was a faint smell of blood, where did it come from in this big city?

His gaze moved here and there before it finally stopped in one direction.

A foreboding feeling arose within his heart.

As his expression, his feet stomped hard on the ground, pushing him in one direction.

At the same time, his mind prayed hard. Don't let it be his residence.
