Mr. Jiang was also helpless. Although he had helped others before, he did have ulterior motives. It was right for others not to thank him.
"If Mr. Jiang could tell the truth, Ji would be more grateful."
"Oh? What truths do you want to hear?" Jiang Fan asked curiously.
Sima Ji's eyes were calm with a hint of exploration, "First, why are you here?"
Jiang Fan smiled and said: "You can't believe it when I say I saved lives and healed the wounded. But it is indeed one of the reasons. The lives of people are in ruins, and Jiang can't bear it. As for the real reason... I can tell you that the most important one is that he doesn't want to join the Jin Dynasty. The country will perish.”
Sima Ji's expression changed: "Don't want to...why don't you want to? Doesn't the Qin State not want to see the war in Jin? If the Jin is destroyed, what does it have to do with the Qin?"
Jiang Fan said calmly: "If you don't want to, you just don't want to. As for the reason, it seems that the king shouldn't ask. Isn't this kind of thing something you should figure out for yourself?"
Sima Ji's expression fluctuated a little, but he quickly calmed down. Jiang Fan couldn't help but secretly praise him. It seemed that after becoming King Jin, his city had become deeper.
Sima Ji thought for a moment, then raised his wine cup again: "Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for being honest."
Jiang Fan raised his cup and touched it to him gently: "It's not candid, but I just told you the purpose."
Sima Ji drank his fill and said, "Master Jiang said, this is the main purpose, so are there other purposes?"
Jiang Fan said: "You can also tell the king that other purposes have nothing to do with Jin, so don't worry."
Sima Ji thought for a moment: "I don't know why, although you are the least trustworthy, Ji thinks you are the most trustworthy."
"This may be intuition, and intuition doesn't lie." Jiang Fan said with a smile.
Sima Ji smiled slightly: "Maybe, but Ji has a shadow in his heart towards the young master, so he should be more careful. Don't blame the young master."
Jiang Fan waved his hand: "No, no, they have different positions, but they are all understanding people. If you are willing to tell me your thoughts, you are not an ordinary person."
"Young Master Jiang is generous." Sima Ji poured a full bottle of wine for him with his own hands: "Ji has one more thing to inquire about in detail. I hope you will give me some advice."
Jiang Fan looked at it with a smile: "Jiang is honored to have the current King of Jin serve him wine. But I wonder why the King is confused?"
Sima Ji said: "May I ask...Has Mr. Jiang ever interacted with my elder brother?"
Jiang Fan's expression did not change at all: "Why do you ask?"
Sima Ji said: "My brother was originally a proud man who behaved domineeringly and aggressively. However, after proclaiming himself Queen Ning, he changed his ways and acted so completely different from the past. It is really incredible."
Jiang Fan said: "I must have received advice from an expert. Could it be that Mr. Ji suspects that Jiang is this person?"
Sima Ji thought for a moment: "Master Jiang has such and such a motive."
"Oh? Why don't you tell me." Jiang Fan seemed a little curious.
"Master Jiang, why do you ask questions knowingly? Master Jiang doesn't want our Jin country to be peaceful. If we can restrain each other, it would be a good thing."
"Is that why?" Jiang Fan was noncommittal: "There are many people with this motive. Why do you doubt Jiang?"
Sima Ji said: "Do you still remember what happened to Sima Linfeng?"
"Of course I remember that Jiang entrusted the king to introduce him."
"That's it. If the young master wants to take advantage of Sima Linfeng's relationship, he must have a plan. However, in the Demon-Slaying Alliance, Ji has never heard of the young master. He is very surprised. I don't think the young master will not go..."
He raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Fan: "If he goes, who will it be?"
Jiang Fan said: "Your Majesty is very capable of guessing."
Sima Ji said calmly: "There are many things that you have to guess before you know the truth. From Ji's point of view, whoever is the most unnecessary but bothers the most is the most likely person. I wonder what Mr. Jiang... thinks of Xiao Zhenren. ?”
Jiang Fan was disturbed, but his expression remained calm: "So, you suspect that I am Xiao Zhenren?"
Sima Ji did not answer directly and continued: "Little Master seems to have appeared in Jing'an."
Jiang Fan raised his thumb: "I can only say that the king has a rich imagination."
Sima Ji looked at him: "So Mr. Jiang denies this matter?"
Jiang Fan said: "It's unreasonable. Your Majesty, feel free to guess. Since you have doubts in your heart, the explanation seems to be a cover-up."
Sima Ji did not argue with him, but said, "There is also Miss Jiang. I wonder if Young Master has ever heard of her?"
"No." Jiang Fan said directly.
"Oh——" Sima Ji said: "There are rumors that my brother benefited from Miss Jiang's guidance. Therefore, Ji is also confused. Is it Miss Jiang or Xiao Zhenren?"
"Or... I can't say for sure it's neither." Jiang Fan said with a smile.
"It's inexplicable, it's inexplicable, but it's strange to say that when Xiao Zhenren went back to the mountain to retreat, Miss Jiang actually disappeared at the same time. During the meeting between the Demon Slaying Alliance and the Demon Palace, Miss Jiang appeared inexplicably. After that, Xia Guo planned our Jin State , Miss Jiang actually appears again, there are really many coincidences in this world."
Jiang Fan clapped his hands: "I finally understand. You suspect that I have transformed into a little real person, and also transformed into Miss Jiang. It's really interesting. It's interesting. Jiang hasn't heard such interesting things in a long time."
Sima Ji looked at her seriously: "Indeed, it is said that Little Master Longhu is indeed a real person, and Miss Jiang is a woman, and she has to be pursued by Master Mu Qiuyun. It is impossible no matter how hard she looks... Therefore, Ji It’s really confusing.”
Jiang Fan shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid Jiang is unable to answer this question. It's up to Mr. Ji to find the answer himself."
Sima Ji said: "Today the master said that the main purpose is not to destroy the Jin Kingdom. It seems to have reminded Ji of something. The Xia Kingdom's use of Jing'an seems to also affect the balance, which is coincident with the master's purpose."
Although Jiang Fan had a smile on his face, he was really surprised in his heart. This guy was really powerful. Under his plain appearance, he really had a heart with seven orifices. Maybe he had seen and thought of more, but he just didn't say it.
"There are no books about coincidences. Everything in the world begins with coincidences. It is not unreasonable for Mr. Ji to explore coincidences."
Jiang Fan was not moved and simply responded.
"It makes sense, it makes sense. It seems that Ji needs to read more, think more, and relate more. I have learned a lesson."
He suddenly turned to look at Nie Xiaoli: "For example, this Miss Nie, we are talking about confidential matters here, and Mr. Jiang doesn't avoid suspicion. Isn't it interesting?"
Jiang Fan said calmly: "It's really because Jiang has nothing to say to others, so there is no need."
Sima Ji shook his head: "Or do you think Mr. Jiang believes that Miss Nie will keep her secret?"
Jiang Fan looked at him: "Isn't it strange? Miss Nie was bought by the head of the Wang family and given to me a long time ago. The king doesn't know about it, right?"
Sima Ji nodded lightly: "I know, but this Miss Nie was also present during the Jing'an assassination incident. It is interesting for a singer to appear on such an occasion."
Jiang Fan suddenly frowned: "It seems that if I take Miss Nie away and stay, sooner or later you will be treated as a spy by a suspicious person like you."
