"Ximen Longting, there are guards outside the door. Can they not hear what we say in the library?"

"Guards?" Ximen Longting raised his eyebrows, "You mean those robots?"

"robot?!"

"Do you think it's a real person?" Ximen Longting put his arms around her waist and prepared to leave.

"I began to suspect that they were not real people... No wonder you said no one would translate for me. It turns out they are not human beings."

"Um."

"Then can they move? Can they understand human speech?"

Ximen Longting explained that they are mobile. Their eyes are monitors and their ears are listening devices. They are controlled by the bodyguards in the monitoring room.

A dozen bodyguards control hundreds or thousands of robots.

"Master Ximen doesn't trust people, he would rather trust a bunch of machines?" Jing Jiaren said in amazement, "What's the point of living in such a cold world?" She really couldn't understand.

Fortunately, the library is so big that the robots can't hear what they say.

And before she entered the library, she foolishly asked the robot if it could help her translate the scrolls and how to get to the library.

Jing Jiaren curled up her lower lip. All these can prove her "innocence".

As long as Mr. Ximen knew that she came to the library to find a dictionary, he would not have thought that she had taken the ring.

The two left the library and walked through the quiet corridor...

Originally, Jing Jiaren thought these bodyguards were human beings and didn't think anything of it when they came.

Now that I knew they were machines, I instantly felt chills running down my spine, and I couldn't help but lean against Ximen Longting.

The man's big palms were warm and he pulled her tightly into his arms.

"Now you know you're afraid?"

"..."

"You are so brave... you actually walked into the library alone."

Looking back now, Jing Jiaren feels that she is brave enough: "I had no choice but to do it because I was forced!"

"..."

"If you don't translate the contents of the scroll tonight, you will have to make a decision tomorrow."

"..."

When talking about the contents of the scroll, Ximen Longting stopped answering again and hugged her back to the bedroom.

The two of them were covered in dust and had to go into the bathroom to take a bath...

Ximen Longting personally put the water in, stripped Jing Jiaren naked and put her into the bathtub.

Lean against his strong chest and listen to the ups and downs of his heartbeat.

Jing Jiaren pinched his chin: "Ximen Longting, I don't like to be left out... Think about it from another perspective, if I were you and I left you to do it like this, would you agree?"

"..."

"Don't force me to find Master Ximen."

"Okay, I'm afraid of you!" Ximen Longting said with dark eyes, "I'll tell you everything you want to know?"

"real?"

"This is called the Royal Scroll, an imperial edict that represents authority in the Ximen family. But it is different. The imperial edict is a unilateral order, and the Royal Scroll requires both parties to reach a contract."

Jing Jiaren understood: "What abnormal conditions does Mr. Ximen want you to agree to?"

"Transfer power."

"..." Jing Jiaren had already vaguely guessed, "Isn't it easy for him to want you to hand over your power? He will directly force you to sign!"

"I have the imperial seal in my hand. It's useless to just sign the royal scroll. I have to hand over the imperial seal."

The royal scroll is in writing and signed for the elders to read... In fact, it is equivalent to being coercive now.

The imperial seal is the one who can mobilize military power.
