He has never worn that royal robe. In fact, Jiang Fan thinks that he is very contradictory, and his actions and his true intentions are always awkwardly incompatible.
"You also know that I don't want it at all." Jiang Fan sighed helplessly: "I always feel like I was tied to a chariot by you for no reason."
The empress was silent for a while and said: "My car is related to this world, and what you have learned in your heart and your innate nature will push you up sooner or later. There is God's will in it."
"Don't you believe in heaven?" Jiang Fan asked strangely.
The empress snorted coldly: "I believe in the way of heaven, not those so-called heavenly beings who pretend to be gods and ghosts."
"By the way, where is the so-called outer world?" Jiang Fan has always been curious about this, so he simply asked when he got the chance today.
The empress seemed unwilling to talk more, and just said: "But a group of guys who think they control the fate of the world, I will defeat them sooner or later."
"The man behind the scenes?" Jiang Fan smiled: "It's interesting, why do some people always think they can control everything?"
The empress looked at him quite meaningfully: "I once thought you were from Tianwai Tian, but later I thought it was more like you were from Kunlun. After all, Kunlun, the head of the Three Holy Lands, only seeks immortality and is more transcendent than the so-called Tianwai Tian."
"My origin is actually quite simple, but there is really no way to explain it." Jiang Fan knew that the empress had always been worried about his origin. But what do you say about this kind of thing? Could it be that I was struck from another world to this world by a thunderstorm? You don’t even believe it.
Fortunately, the empress was not entangled: "No matter where you come from, for whatever reason, or with what purpose, you should take this world seriously when you come."
"...Actually, what you said makes some sense. When I come to this world, I may have to do something." Jiang Fan said as if talking to himself.
The empress looked into his eyes: "As long as you remember one thing, if you become my enemy one day, I will not show mercy."
Jiang Fan smiled: "I believe this. But that may not happen. You have many enemies now. Are you about to take action?"
The empress said calmly: "Now that Jin Xia has started a war, the situation has begun to develop in a certain direction. It is almost time for me, Great Qin, to reach that moment."
"I didn't expect that the first one to show his teeth and claws would be Xia." Jiang Fan was still a little confused.
"Don't be surprised, Jin Xia? It's a joke. Rather than confronting Xiangzhou, it's better to say that we are joining forces to Xiangzhou."
Jiang Fan was shocked: "What?"
The empress said calmly: "That's what I mean, Wei... is going to be in chaos."
A red dress suddenly appeared in Jiang Fan's mind, and his chewing slowed down.
"Remember her?" The empress looked at him.
"No!" Jiang Fan calmed down and denied it.
The empress said: "You can think about it."
"Just can't move?" Jiang Fan asked tentatively.
The empress did not answer his words, but suddenly looked down at the food in her hand and frowned: "What is this?"
"Haha," Jiang Fan couldn't help but smile: "This is called the Two Heavens of Ice and Fire, commonly known as...baked ice."
The empress was stunned for a moment: "Ice? Ice can also be baked?"
Jiang Fan said: "Of course, there is nothing in the world that cannot be roasted in my hands."
The empress thought for a while: "The weather has been abnormal these days and it has not frozen. Where does the ice come from?"
"I made it myself." Jiang Fan said casually.
"Is it possible to make ice?"
"Of course, even the dog days of summer are fine. It's very simple."
The empress' eyes were blazing: "Jiang Fan, do you know that I still want to pry your head open and take a look..."
——
The empress drank some wine today but did not leave. She actually stayed in the room that Jiang Fan had prepared for her in advance. Of course, Mr. Jiang did not forget to remind him about the rent deduction. He kept talking about how the price was not expensive at one tael of silver per day. In the end, he ate the spiced lotus feet without any surprise.
Although Zhao Gao couldn't listen to what the two said, the fact that the empress stayed at the palace made his heart tremble. If word of this spreads, it would be a huge event.
But the next moment he became even more excited: Yes, he hugged the right thigh. And... the look in his small eyes flashed: knowing such a secret, I am invisibly getting closer to His Majesty...
——
Gongshu Yu's face was very solemn: "Master, my subordinates have figured out this agency, but..."
Jiang Fan said: "Is there something wrong?"
Gong Shuyu organized his thoughts and said: "The mechanism is not complicated, but it is very tricky. It can only be opened from the inside. If it is broken open by external force, the water from Qinglian Pond will flood the secret room. There is also a secret passage in the secret room. Anyone who finds someone trying to enter , the person in the secret room will inevitably escape through the secret passage."
"Secret room? Are you sure that there is a hidden room under Qinglian Lake?"
Gongshu Yu said: "Yes, judging from the ventilation design, it must be used by Tibetans. And the design of the secret passage also proves this."
"Is there a way to enter the secret room without alerting the people in it?"
Gongshu Yu shook his head: "Although the structure of this secret room is simple, it is very complete. If it is not opened from the inside, there is no chance that it will not be alarmed."
Jiang Fan thought for a while: "What about the secret passage? Can we start from the secret passage?"
Gongshu Yu said: "My subordinates have thought that this can be achieved, because we still don't know where the secret passage leads to, and whether there are people stationed along the entire line, so we don't dare to act rashly."
Jiang Fan frowned and thought deeply, who would build a secret room under the water to hide people?
"In this case, take a look at the research method. Don't take any big steps now. Let me report any progress."
After Gongshu Yu left, Jiang Fan immediately summoned the two ghosts.
"Shan Xiaodan, Shan Xiaoshuang pays homage to the young master."
"Are you still used to it?" Jiang Fan smiled slightly.
"Thank you for your concern, sir. Everything is fine."
Indeed, Ergui lived a good life in Jiang Mansion for a period of time, with good food and good housing. Except for his aversion to the light, his mentality has long since stabilized.
What's more, with Ding Shaoan's guidance on the Mandarin Duck Twins, the two of them have made rapid progress and have entered the realm of great martial arts masters.
During this period, the two also truly discovered Ding Shaoan's strength - the master level. Naturally, he also understood that Ding Shaoan had hidden his strength in the previous battle.
Regarding Jiang Fan as their master, the two of them felt even more inscrutable and did not dare to offend him at all. After all, they were hiding in the dark, but they also knew that the people in Jiang Fan's house were all the top figures in the Qin State, and even the decoration craftsmen were from the Gongshu family, the number one craftsman family in a thousand years. The guards around him are all Dragon Eagle Guards, and even His Majesty will often visit privately. What's more, Jiang Fan is now the King of Qin, and for them, his status is already in the sky.
"Very well, now I have something for you to do."
Now Jiang Fan also understands his situation. At certain times, his behavior will be a little different from before, and the aura of a superior person will occasionally appear.
Ergui was actually very happy that it was finally useful.
"Please give me your orders, Master!"
"There is a secret passage under the Qinglian Pond. The two of you go to find Gongshu, and secretly explore where the secret passage leads according to his instructions. Report any news at any time. Remember, don't alert the snake."
Jiang Fan was a little lucky that he had some strange talents under his command, and this kind of invisible person must be Ergui.
