Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

Xiao Ce pondered for a moment, then looked at Yin Pan'er and said, "Didn't you already have an idea in your mind? Are you deliberately trying to make me look particularly smart?"

Yin Pan'er looked extremely embarrassed when she heard Xiao Ce say that.

Xiao Ce actually saw through Yin Pan'er's sensitivity and perceptiveness.

Xiao Ce took Yin Pan'er's hand and said directly to her, "Pan'er, you and I don't need to be like this... You are my woman... and even more so, my wife. We are equals. You don't need to worry about making me happy... and I won't be jealous that my woman is smarter than me... I won't mind at all."

Hearing Xiao Ce say that, Yin Pan'er smiled and said, "I was overthinking it... You're so much smarter than me... No matter what expression I make, it can't escape your sharp eyes..."

Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Between you and me, we are husband and wife! There's no need to worry about so many things..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er smiled and then nodded heavily.

As he spoke, Xiao Ce put the mask on his face.

After putting on the mask, he stood behind Yin Pan'er.

Suddenly, Yin Pan'er thought of something and said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, do you know where Xu Kong went?"

When Yin Pan'er mentioned the void, Xiao Ce also remembered it.

Ever since the Mad Taoist helped Yin Pan'er remove that sensor from her body.

The Mad Taoist has been missing ever since, and there has been no news of him.

Xiao Ce was used to it; the Mad Taoist was elusive after all.

Yin Pan'er was very worried that the mad Taoist might be discovered by the person who claimed to be Xiao Ce Ren.

Yin Pan'er wasn't really worried about the mad Taoist. She was actually more worried about Xiao Ce...

Xiao Ce shook his head, looking at the worry on Yin Pan'er's face: "Although I don't know where he went... but don't worry... I'm definitely alright..."

Yin Pan'er looked at Xiao Ce with a puzzled expression: "Your Highness, why are you so sure?"

Xiao Ce smiled at Yin Pan'er and said, "Because I believe I am a chosen one... I believe the chosen one has a mission, and I believe that until my mission is completed, I will surely be protected by heaven..."

Xiao Ce said jokingly.

Yin Pan'er listened with exceptional focus, looking at Xiao Ce with a determined expression: "Your Highness, what is your mission?"

Xiao Ce looked at Yin Pan'er's serious expression; it was clear she had taken his words to heart...

"World Peace!"

Before Yin Pan'er could speak, a sound came from outside the door.

Xiao Ce stood ready.

At that moment, a blond, brown-eyed, fair-skinned man walked in from outside...

The man was wearing a very fine suit and a pair of polished leather shoes.

The man took off his top hat and bowed to Yin Pan'er.

"Dear Ms. Yin, hello. I am a liaison officer from the Illuminati headquarters. My name is Lauder. I am here on orders from headquarters to arrange a meeting with you... to express our gratitude for the timely information you provided..."

Yin Pan'er smiled at the man named Lauder: "Welcome, Mr. Lauder... What kind of department is this 'headquarters' you mentioned...? I only know that my direct supervisor is the East Asia Association President, Mr. Ed White..."

Yin Pan'er was very direct; if she knew something, she knew it, and if she didn't, she didn't.

At that moment, Lauder was not surprised by what Yin Pan'er said.

Because the headquarters of the Illuminati is known only to its core members; no one outside of it knows about it.

Lauder glanced at Xiaoyue and Xiao Ce subconsciously.

Yin Pan'er said directly to Lauder, "These two are my most trusted subordinates... Liaison Officer Lauder, you don't need to worry at all."

After listening to Yin Pan'er's words, Lauder nodded and then said, "Agent Yin, these two are people you trust, not people I trust. So, what I'm about to say..."

Yin Pan'er said to Lauder, "Liaison Officer Lauder, first and foremost, I only answer to President Ed White. I am unaware of this Illuminati headquarters you claim to be... and I have no idea whether your identity is genuine."

"The reason I'm meeting with you is because you know I did send a message to Chairman Ed White. I don't trust you. I need someone to protect me... especially since I know nothing about you and don't trust you... If you don't trust the people I trust, why should I trust you? If you insist on your idea, then I think there's no need for us to continue talking..."

Yin Pan'er is quite clever; she speaks in a way that is easy for the other person to understand and that makes them feel her authority.

After that brief explanation...

Lauder was a straightforward person: "Okay, Agent Yin, what you said makes sense. Let me introduce it to you. Our Illuminati headquarters is directly managed by two presidents."

"For example, you are Ed White's agent, and all your tasks are under Ed White's command. Ed White and Victor King are both agents of headquarters, and they carry out the orders given by headquarters."

"While the tasks your Chairman Ed White assigns you may be very detailed, headquarters grants them a great deal of authority..."

Hearing what Lauder said, Yin Pan'er nodded: "Mr. Lauder, I understand! You mean that your headquarters is the real boss of the Illuminati!"

Lauder nodded and said to Yin Pan'er, "That's right, that's exactly it."

Yin Pan'er reiterated, "This is simply unheard of, I've never heard of it before..."

Lord continued, "That's right, this is top secret. If you hadn't provided such crucial information this time, you probably wouldn't have known about the existence of this headquarters organization..."

After listening to his words, Yin Pan'er smiled and then said, "Liaison Officer Lauder, although what you say does sound very plausible... but you know! I can't just listen to your side of the story... How can you prove your identity?"

Lauder listened to Yin Pan'er with some surprise: "Prove my identity?"

Then Lauder simply pulled a badge out of his pocket.

Then, with her head held high, she said to Yin Pan'er, "This should prove it, right..."

Hearing his confident tone, Yin Pan'er looked at the object with a puzzled expression, and then asked, "What is this?"
