As Jiang Lan spoke casually, he took a Jade Pendant engraved with the character "Jiang" from his robes and placed it on the tea table before him.
Emperor Xia's eyes narrowed. She stared at Jiang Lan's face, her gaze merely flickering over the Jade Pendant without any move to take it.
'The mighty ruler of Great Xia, and he wants me to become a Tributor in the Prime Minister's Mansion?'
However, over the years, the Prime Minister's Mansion had indeed cultivated many retainers, all with impressive cultivation. There was no shortage of Sixth and Seventh Realm experts among them.
'Right now, Jiang Lan doesn't know my identity. This Jade Pendant might just come in handy later.'
With this in mind, Emperor Xia gave a slight nod. With a flick of the jade-like hand beneath her wide sleeve, she accepted the Jade Pendant.
"Since Young Master Jiang has put it that way, it would be rude of me to refuse," she replied.
