2527 An Outsider Almost Entered the Privy Council Twenty Years Ago

Yu Qingliu knew she would say that. He smiled and confidently said, "Don't worry. Even if you can't grab this opportunity, I'll help you grab it behind your back!"

This was exactly what Ji Ziyin wanted to hear.

After all, she knew too little about the reclusive families and the Privy Council. With her own strength, Ji Ziyin was afraid that she would not be able to establish herself in a short time.

If she wanted to climb steadily, she had to find an ally.

Even if… the Yu Family was only her temporary ally, she had to think of a way to make good use of this ladder.

Ji Ziyin was an obedient person. She immediately gave Yu Qingliu a reassurance pill. "Thank you, Elder Yu. I will remember the Yu family's kindness."

Yu Qingliu nodded in satisfaction and explained the Privy Council in a gentle tone. "The Privy Council is the central institution formed by a few top families from the reclusive families. Let me tell you this. If the reclusive families are a colossus, the Privy Council is the colossus' heart! Even the Empress above ten thousand people is restrained by the Privy Council to a certain extent.

"The Privy Council has existed since the reclusive families have existed. It has always been the most powerful, mysterious, and difficult place to enter in the world.

"All these years, only those few families have been able to enter the Privy Council."

Ji Ziyin knew that Yu Qingliu probably had not even touched the corner of this circle, so he did not even know the names of those families.

However, she only quietly listened.

"An outsider once entered the Privy Council. That person's power was so great that they took over everyone in the reclusive families. However, that person passed away after that.

"20 years ago, another genius almost entered the Privy Council, but they died young and didn't have the chance to really enter the Privy Council."

Yu Qingliu looked at her with a burning gaze. "You're the third outsider to enter the Privy Council!"

Yu Qingliu still could not wrap his head around it.

Initially, he only wanted to try to bring Ji Ziyin into the circle of reclusive families. Who knew that she would be so lucky to be chosen by the Empress to enter the Privy Council?

"This time, the Empress personally recommended you. Do you understand how lucky you are?" He did not delve into the reason as he smiled at her.

Ji Ziyin had already roughly understood how awesome the Privy Council was. Her blood boiled with excitement, but she maintained her mask. "I'll work hard and not let down the opportunity Elder Yu gave me!"

Yu Xinlan returned at this moment.

Seeing Yu Qingliu talking to Ji Ziyin, her brows furrowed and her face darkened.

She walked in and greeted Yu Qingliu, "Grandpa, I'm back."

In the past few days, Yu Qingliu had never asked her to talk to Ji Ziyin.

However, this time, he stopped her and said, "Aren't you going out with a few friends this afternoon?"

"Yes, we're having afternoon tea together," Yu Xinlan stopped in her tracks and answered vaguely.

Yu Qingliu picked up his coffee cup and instructed her calmly, "Bring Ziyin along and take her around Country M."

Yu Xinlan's expression turned incredulous and unwilling. She looked at Ji Ziyin, who was sitting upright beside Yu Qingliu, and disgust flashed across her eyes. Enduring it, she said with a fake smile, "That's not convenient, right? We have something to discuss."
