Chapter 31: Catherine's Return

Catherine is back! Not only did she come back this time, but she also brought more than thirty Night Elves to the city of Zarat.

After separating from Li Zijun and Anna, Catherine soon returned to the Night Elves' station on the Seine Peninsula. When the other Night Elves saw Catherine's appearance, they could barely believe their eyes. The Night Elves can actually reverse back into the Elves, which is only a scenario that can only appear in their dreams, but it actually appears in reality!

Susan, the Night Elf's head in charge of the Seine Peninsula, saw Catherine's condition and had long forgotten the responsibility for pursuing Catherine's failed operation, and immediately asked her all the details of this transformation.

Catherine was well aware of what this meant to the Night Elves, and before returning to the station, she had recalled the events of the event countless times until she was sure that nothing had been missed.

Although Catherine's description was detailed enough, and even clearly described the changes in Li Zijun's body at that time and the scene of Zuihou fainting, Susan still felt that there were too few clues in her hands. Susan forced Catherine to recall the exact date and time, and even the weather. Susan felt that there was really nothing to ask, so she stopped asking.

The significance of this matter to the Night Elves was too great, and the person in charge of Susan's region did not dare to judge at all. Originally, she wanted to take Catherine to the headquarters to report the situation, but at this time, she suddenly heard the news that Li Zijun was going to the capital.

The Night Elf Weishenme will be transformed, and no one can explain it yet, but one thing Susan can still be sure of is that this matter must have a lot to do with Li Zijun! Therefore, the Night Elf must not allow Li Zijun to be hurt in the slightest.

But since someone has already found the Night Elves of the Seine Peninsula, it proves that there must be someone who desperately wants Li Zijun's life. Their operation failed this time, and there was no guarantee that they would not find anyone else, and the Night Elves would never allow such a thing to happen now.

In order to ensure Li Zijun's safety, Susan had to divide Catherine's soldiers into two ways, and she herself rushed to the headquarters to report the news, and Catherine led all the masters who could be mobilized by the Night Elves in the Seine Peninsula rushed to Sarat City to protect Li Zijun's safety.

Susan worries that sending others over will not only not gain Li Zijun's trust, but may make Li Zijun suspect the motives of the Night Elves. Catherine once 'met sincerely' with Li Zijun, and there was a subtle trust between them, and Li Zijun should accept Catherine's protection.

On the other hand, Susan also has some ideas of her own. In the traditional concept of the elves, Catherine was in the state at that time, and she could only marry Li Zijun in the future. And in Catherine's description, Susan can hear that Catherine is not ruthless to Li Zijun, and Li Zijun should also have some interest in Catherine, and Susan is also happy to use this escort mission to match them.

As for the Night Elf's reversal, no matter how it develops in the future, the Night Elf needs to get Li Zijun's cooperation. Li Zijun is not obligated to help the Night Elves unconditionally, which means that the Night Elves urgently need to establish a relationship with Li Zijun now. Catherine is the most suitable link between Li Zijun and the Night Elves, and Susan Jihua uses Catherine to pull Li Zijun.

As long as Catherine can become Li Zijun's woman, even if she successfully reverses back to the elves and can only become a case, she can build a survival base for the Night Elves on the Seine Peninsula, which is also a big gain for the Night Elves.

Susan spoke her thoughts very tactfully, and did not hide it from Catherine, which also deprived Catherine of any excuse for refusal. The Night Elves are constantly being banished by certain nobles in disguise, and even for this reason, Catherine must carry out this mission.

But Catherine's heart is still a little uncomfortable, last time it was a last resort, this time it's **! As a Night Elf master who has always been known for her strength, it is difficult for Catherine to accept such a change.

Catherine just handed Susan's letter to Li Zijun and stood aside coldly, waiting for his reply.

When I heard that Catherine came back just now, Li Zijun was happy for a while, but seeing her standing in front of him like this, Li Zijun immediately guessed the general content of the letter, and couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart.

After reading Susan's letter, it was indeed true to his own conjecture, and Li Zijun gently put the letter back on the table.

"I have enough guards, I don't need the protection of others!" Li Zijun actually wanted to see Catherine every day, but he didn't know Weishenme, when he saw Catherine's cold appearance, this sentence blurted out.

Catherine didn't expect Li Zijun to treat her like this, and after being slightly stunned, she was a little dazed. In her thoughts, Li Zijun refused the protection of the night elves, which was equivalent to rejecting her, she was a little stunned in the face of Li Zijun's refusal, and then tears filled her eyes, and her body began to tremble slightly, and she turned around and prepared to walk out of Li Zijun's study.

Seeing Catherine's appearance, Li Zijun also regretted his impulsiveness a little, but he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Ed, how can you do this?" Anna saw that Catherine wanted to leave, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop her.

"Yesterday I was still talking about others, why did I want to leave them when I met?"

Hearing Anna's words, Li Zijun just wanted to argue, but when he saw Anna's angry eyes, he still swallowed the words that came to his lips.

At this time, Catherine's tears had burst out of her eyes, and all the grievances in her heart burst out at this moment.

Seeing Catherine shaking her shoulders, Li Zijun also felt a burst of heartache, and at this time, Anna kept signaling him with her eyes.

"I mean, I have enough guards, and I didn't say I don't want them, let's stay!" Li Zijun had to misinterpret his meaning.

Li Zijun was about to send someone to place the Night Elves when the 'monkey' ran in from outside.

"Young master, come out and take a look, something big is going to happen!" said the 'monkey' hurriedly.

"Don't be surprised, what happened, tell me slowly. ”

"The original guards of the Hou Mansion deliberately played tricks on the people of the dwarf tribe, which caused the dissatisfaction of the dwarf tribe, and both sides were rushing to the martial arts field, and they were about to fight. "The 'monkey' said breathlessly.

Li Zijun didn't dare to delay when he heard this, and immediately got up and walked out. Catherine was hesitating whether she should follow Li Zijun when she felt a tightening of her wrist, and Li Zijun had already grabbed her wrist and walked out.

Catherine's face turned red, but she still followed Li Zijun out in a proper manner, seeing the 'monkey' smirk, Anna glared at him fiercely, and the 'monkey' was so frightened that she hurriedly ran to Li Zijun to lead the way.

Li Zijun saw that most of the guards on duty in the Hou Mansion were still in their respective posts, and his mood relaxed a little. He gave a few words to the leader on duty, and then he led Anna, Catherine, and 'Monkey' to the martial arts arena.

When Li Zijun and his party arrived at the martial arts arena, hundreds of people had already gathered here, and nearly seventy percent of the guards of the Hou Mansion had rushed here.

The two sides stood on both sides clearly, and the giant clan chose to side with the dwarven tribe at this time.

Di Ge, the commander of the Hou Mansion, saw Li Zijun's figure and greeted him with an embarrassed face.

"Young master, the villain is incompetent!"

Li Zijun glanced at him coldly,

"No matter who is right or wrong, you should let those guards on duty go back immediately! If anyone dares to disobey the order, there will be no mercy!"

Although Li Zijun was talking to Diego alone, at this time, the martial arts arena had completely quieted down because of his arrival, and everyone heard his voice, and the guards who were off duty remembered their duties at this time and hurriedly left one by one.

"Stephen, what the hell is going on here?" asked Li Zijun as he walked between the two sides and looked at the leader of the dwarven guards.

Stephen didn't dare to hide it, let alone deceive, and told what happened word by word in front of Digo.

It turned out that after the dwarf guards arrived at the Hou Mansion, because their stature had been discriminated against by the original guards of the Hou Mansion, and later some people put the training equipment of the dwarf guards on a high place, and then waited to watch the dwarves jump up and down to get these equipment, so as to have fun. Although the people of the dwarf tribe were angry, because they had just arrived at the Hou Mansion, they could only choose to swallow their anger.

Today, it happened that the dwarven guard Jim arrived a little earlier than usual, and he happened to see the original guards of the Hou Mansion fiddling with their equipment, so he immediately stepped forward to argue a few words, and the two sides tore apart without speculation.

The guards sent to Li Zijun by the dwarf tribe all had the level of a swordsman or above, and Jim even had the level of a high-level swordsman. But Jim was careful when he did it, and the few guards he knocked down were only slightly wounded, and they didn't do much damage.

The situation here was quickly discovered, and the original guards of the Hou Mansion all ran here, and the dwarf and giant guards also gathered here when they heard the news. Thanks to Diego and Stephen's timely report, they had time to run over to stop both sides and not cause a catastrophe.

After listening to Stephen's description, Li Zijun turned his head to look at Diego.

"Is there a discrepancy between what you know and what Stephen said?"

"I just investigated this matter, it's really our fault!" Diego didn't dare to lie in the face of Li Zijun, and said honestly.

"The dwarven guards are also your subordinates now, there is no difference between you and us!" Li Zijun looked at Diego and corrected his statement.

Hearing Li Zijun say this, Diego immediately showed an embarrassed expression. Although the dwarf and giant guards were nominally his subordinates, he never received Li Zijun's orders on how to use the dwarf and giant guards, and he was not good at telling the dwarves and giant guards on his behalf. Originally, he wanted to wait until Li Zijun was busy with this paragraph, and then ask for instructions on how to deal with the dwarves and giant guards, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen today!

Seeing Diego's expression, Li Zijun also understood his predicament! But this matter can no longer be delayed, and it must be resolved satisfactorily today. Thinking of this, Li Zijun ordered Diego to find all the guards who were not on duty in the Hou Mansion here. At the same time, Anna asked him to invite his sisters, the old butler Brenda and others over, and even the Night Elves, who had just arrived at the Hou Mansion, were asked to bring them here.

While waiting, Kelvin and Filton ran over sweating profusely, but Li Zijun didn't let them speak, and waved them to stand behind him.

Li Zijun saw that the people were almost there, so he walked up to the high platform of the martial arts arena.

"I'm sorry today! My brothers have been discriminated against, and what makes me sad is that it's my family who hurt them! You are all a group of people who I am willing to entrust my lives unconditionally, but you hurt each other in front of me! I'm very sad!" Speaking of this, Li Zijun's eyes turned red, and he looked up into the distance, suppressing some excitement.

"Young master, we were wrong! We are willing to ask our dwarf brothers daoqian! We are willing to accept all punishments! Don't feel sorry for us anymore!" Originally, the few guards who made trouble before thought that Li Zijun would punish them severely, but they didn't expect Li Zijun to be so sad about this matter, and what touched them the most was that Li Zijun actually regarded them as family members, and they fell to their knees and cried.

"Master Hou, it's our fault! I shouldn't have done it, you might as well punish me!" the dwarf Jim also knelt down and took the initiative to plead guilty.

"What happened today has a lot to do with me! There are some things that I have never been able to explain to you clearly!" Li Zijun paused slightly when he said this.

"I want to announce to you: from today onwards, from now on, there will be no dwarves, giants, or night elves in the Hou Mansion, in the city of Salat, and in the Seine Peninsula, and we will have only one title - the Seine Peninsula!" Li Zijun waved his arms with all his might.

"As long as all the races who love this land of the Seine Peninsula and are willing to contribute to the prosperity of this land, they will become our brothers and sisters!"

"I swear: I will defend your dignity with my life!" Li Zijun crushed his heart and almost roared.

Hearing Li Zijun's words, tears flashed in the eyes of everyone in the audience. Dwarves, giants, and night elves are more prominent, and they desperately need to be recognized by the Terrans, and Li Zijun gives them hope.

"Master Hou, will we get the same treatment as they do?" asked Jim excitedly as he knelt on the ground.

"You are exactly the same in my eyes!

When the dwarf and giant guards heard Li Zijun's assurance, they all smiled knowingly, but the eyes of the night elves were still full of suspicion!

The Night Elves have experienced too many similar things for thousands of years, but zuihou they get nothing but disappointment. Their group is the embodiment of the devil in the minds of human beings, not to mention contact, even if they get close, they will be contaminated with bad luck, and no one is willing to take them in sincerely.

The Night Elves came here for a different purpose than the Dwarven Tribe and the Giant Clan, and they were a little unimpressed by Li Zijun's words.

Li Zijun couldn't help but sigh secretly when he saw the indifferent look in the eyes of the Night Elves! The cold ice that had formed in the hearts of the Night Elves for thousands of years could hardly be melted by a few words, and they didn't even want to believe what they said. But today Li Zijun must open the night elf's heart barrier, otherwise something similar is very likely to happen again. Thinking of this, Li Zijun suddenly sent an invitation to the night elves in the audience:

"Night Elf brothers and sisters, I have a request today, I want you to take off the veil on your face and come on stage to hug me with your true colors!" Li Zijun opened his arms and said with a smile.

Hearing Li Zijun's words, the Night Elves were all dumbfounded! They looked at each other, thinking that something was wrong with their ears.

Seeing the expressions of the night elves in the audience, Li Zijun knew that he was only one step away from success, and he repeated what he had just said with a smile.

"Of course, if you don't want to go on stage, I can also go down there and hug you!" Li Zijun's smile was full of sincerity.

"Marquis Edred, are you really willing to hug us, we are all ominous people, and we will bring you bad luck!" Someone from the Night Elves finally stood up, and this person looked at Li Zijun and said excitedly.

"I don't believe these words at all! And I've hugged the Night Elves before, and I don't think there's anything wrong with me, but I think I've had a good time during this time!" Li Zijun said, glancing at Catherine as if inadvertently.

Catherine's face immediately turned red at the thought of their contact.

"Master Hou, we believe in you!" but," the man just now said with some hesitation.

Li Zijun understood what he was afraid of, and smiled and prepared to walk down from the high platform.

The night elves finally felt Li Zijun's sincerity, and they took off the veils on their faces and walked up to the stage one by one to hug Li Zijun. Seeing the tears of gratitude in their eyes, Li Zijun knew that he had succeeded today!

"The Night Elves just have some black lines on their bodies, and the others are no different from us!Men are all stinky, and women are all fragrant!" Li Zijun teased with a smile.

Hearing Li Zijun's words, the audience was in an uproar, and the night elves also laughed, they had never been so happy as today! Catherine also left tears of gratitude behind Li Zijun.

Seeing that Li Zijun had taken control of the situation, Caroline, Jenny, and Brenda looked at each other and smiled, and quietly turned to leave.

The guards who started the incident were punished as they deserved, and the matter was finally calmed down.

Li Zijun chatted with the guards in the martial arts arena for a while, and then took Kelvin and Filton back to his study.

Sitting in his place, Li Zijun's face immediately became gloomy, and he looked at Kelvin and Felton dissatisfied.

"It's been a few days since this happened, and you guys haven't reported it! If it weren't for Diego and Stephen's ability, it would have been a catastrophe today!"

"Ever since the dwarves and giant guards entered the Hou Mansion, the original guards of the Hou Mansion have felt tremendous pressure. There are less than thirty of our martial artists above the Houfu Sword Master, and there are only two or three high-level sword masters, while the dwarves and giants are all swordsmen, and they each have two or three great swordsmen. The original guards of the Hou Mansion were worried that their status was threatened, and some of them were a little unconvinced by the dwarves and giants, so they secretly caused some trouble. I've already sent someone to warn them, and they've relented a lot, so I really didn't expect what happened today. Please punish you, young master!" Seeing Li Zijun's angry expression, Kelvin was extremely embarrassed and knelt down on one knee in front of him, Felton didn't dare to say more, and knelt behind Kelvin.

"Forget it, this matter is over, and you all get up. Li Zijun also knew that the two people in front of him had not rested seriously for several days in order to help him prepare for entering Beijing. Seeing their haggard appearance, Li Zijun didn't want to say anything more, and asked them to get up and return to their seats.

"Have you found out who is behind this matter?" In fact, this was what Li Zijun was most worried about, he looked at the two of them with a serious expression and asked.

"When the situation first appeared, Felton reminded me that I had told him to follow up on it. Speaking of this, Kelvin turned his head to look at Felton and nodded, signaling for him to report the results of the investigation to Li Zijun.

"I've been following up on this for a long time, and I think it's just a negative move by a few guards, none of them have any other purpose, and I don't find anything suspicious in them!" said Felton, getting up.

"Regardless of whether they have problems or not, they are no longer suitable to continue to stay in the Hou Mansion! You transfer them to the coalition army as soon as possible, but you need to be careful not to let them get in touch with the affairs related to the Tiger Bandit Regiment, and observe them for a period of time before deciding whether they will stay or not!" Li Zijun was still a little uneasy, and ordered those people to be transferred out of the Hou Mansion.

"Yes!" Kelvin and Felton got up.

"Have you selected the people who will enter Beijing over there?" Li Zijun is going to take the opportunity of entering Beijing this time to arrange some capable personnel to strengthen the intelligence system in Beijing.

"We've already selected thirty people, and we're waiting for you to decide, young master!" Kelvin replied.

"If you all think it's okay, I won't watch it! Felton, from now on, you take over the work as soon as possible, and go to Beijing with me this time. You can ask for anything, I will try my best to satisfy you, as for the rest, I will not bother with it, I have only one request for you, I want to see a well-trained intelligence team in three years!

During this time, Li Zijun has been worrying about who to send to be in charge of the intelligence network in the capital. Kelvin and Felton have no problem in terms of loyalty or personal ability, and they are both qualified to serve in the capital. But Li Zijun hopes that they can all stay in the Seine Peninsula and help themselves with their respective strengths. But apart from them, Li Zijun couldn't find a suitable candidate for the time being. After some deliberation, Li Zijun Zuihou decided to put Felton in charge of forming the intelligence network in the capital.

Because of Wells's connections, Filton was an informant in the eyes of many people in the Hou Mansion! This also put Filton in an embarrassing situation in the Hou Mansion, and even if he was left here, it would be difficult for him to give full play to his talents. Instead of this, it is better to arrange him in the capital, so that it will be easier to develop his potential!

"Young master, don't worry, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer in three years!" said Filton with a firm look in his eyes.

Hearing Li Zijun's order, although Felton was still calm on the surface, he was already full of gratitude to Li Zijun in his heart. By the time he had returned to the Seine, he had already felt a tremendous amount of pressure that he had no way to convey to anyone else.

Li Zijun's order today not only gave him a broad space to play, but also solved his current problem. Felton secretly decided to do his best to repay Li Zijun's kindness!

Looking at the back of the two leaving, Li Zijun's eyes were a little empty, the last time he entered Beijing, he didn't know what else he would encounter when he entered the capital again?
