Bab 62: A Conspiracy to Capture Lance

"Spying on me?" Chiaki asked incredulously, her hands gripping each other. "We agreed to provide assistance to each other in the matter of the union. I allowed him access to the Crystal Garden and the pyramid by right, but he also respected my privacy when I worked with the Council, which, required no privacy, actually. There's no secret matter in my communication line to this hall."

She sat down, extending a hand across the table to accentuate her point.

"Without Lance Hua spying on you, there would be no unravelled secret plan of the Northern tribes to attack us."

"Grand Elder, please listen to us first," Azure Ao became the mediator. He straightened his back and positioned himself in front of Chiaki.
