Jiang Wuqi's life was short.
From that winter night in Yuanfeng's thirty-eighth year to this morning in Yuanfeng's fifty-fifth year.
Dragging his sick body with him, he walked for seventeen years.
Emperor Qi invited famous doctors from all over the world and promised huge profits, but no one thought Jiang Wuqi could live beyond ten years old.
And he is already seventeen this year.
These extra seven years were gained by him fighting against death alone, day by day.
The cold poison begins to enter the body in the womb. The higher the cultivation level, the stronger the cold poison will be.
To practice is to die. If you don’t practice, you are waiting for death.
Jiang Wuqi knew early on that fate did not give him more choices.
Both roads forward and backward are dead ends.
He endured tremendous pain every day and every hour of his life. Every bowl of medicine he drank was miserable, and every treatment he received was torture.
And he lived stubbornly.
Doctor Wen said that the inner palace had reached its limit, so he took a step forward and immediately died of cold poison.
He just asked, what if I suddenly come to you?
Dr. Wen said that you will die when you enter the outer building and die when you enter the gods. Only the cave can cut yourself into the cold poison of life. However, it is almost impossible to enter the cave.
He only said, then I will take a step to the truth.
He dragged the cold poison into his body to create infinite possibilities.
He endured every moment of pain to develop his own legend of Jiang Wuqi.
What a simple thought it is for a person to want to live.
But for Jiang Wuqi, it was such a difficult wish.
It's a pity that his footsteps will always stop in the autumn of Yuanfeng's fifty-fifth year.
He was frozen in the majestic and majestic Ziji Palace, silently turning into an ice sculpture in the center of power of the Daqi Empire.
How to evaluate him?
Just like his lonely problem in the Palace of Eternal Life——
"Who is alone?"
The Emperor of Qi was silent.
He raised his hand, as if he wanted to touch Jiang Wuqi's cheek, but it hovered in mid-air and remained still for a long time.
The luxurious and majestic emperor's crown robe and the snow-white fox fur made of ice sculptures looked at each other in silence.
And the hand that could change the world in a single turn was finally put down lonely.
From now on, you can't touch it again.
Earlier, Jiang Wuqi was naked and holding a jade in his mouth, kneeling in front of the Ziji Palace waiting for trial. The emperor took away the jade from his mouth, forgave him, but also alienated him.
Today, Jiang Wuqi finally asked him for the piece of white jade to show his innocence and that he had found it himself.
The emperor's crown and robes are majestic and luxurious, and he naturally stands high, making people crawl on his knees. The pearls hanging down from Pingtian's crown also contain time, hiding all the emotions of the Supreme Lord of the Eastern Region.
The emperor cannot be without doubt.
The emperor's heart cannot be clearly understood.
God's grace is like the sea, and God's power is unpredictable.
There is no doubt that Jiang Shu is a qualified emperor.
But Jiang Wuqi finally called himself... his son.
How does he respond to his son?
The supreme leader of the Daqi Empire stood like this in the Ziji Palace for a long time, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Until Han Ling endured his grief and spoke softly: "Your Majesty, what should we do with the two people captured by His Highness Eleven?"
Only then did Emperor Qi seem to wake up.
He turned around and walked up to Lord Dan.
The trajectory of Qizhu in the air is like saying goodbye for the last time.
And his voice, as if falling from the sky, was so indifferent and distant——
"Cut them."
It was only then that this heroic lord who ruled the Eastern Region and conquered the world finally showed some emotion.
There is no need to test, no intelligence, no negotiation of terms, no need to pursue clues.
As long as they die in the most miserable way possible.
This is a father's memorial to his son.
The tall Lord Dan finally came to the end, and Emperor Qi, who was dressed in imperial robes, turned around and sat down on the indescribably expensive dragon chair.
The light of the Red Sun Pearl could not penetrate the Qizhu, casting a shadow on the emperor's face.
This Ziji Palace is too tall and spacious, making the people in the palace feel too lonely.
…
…
Jiang Wang got the news on the way back to Qi——
Jiang Wuqi, the eleventh prince of Da Qi and the master of Changsheng Palace, suffered from cold poison and passed away in Ziji Palace at the age of seventeen.
Along with this news came the news that Jiang Wuqi used his body as bait to catch all the spies of the Ping Dynasty in Qi State.
From the Capital Inspection Office to the Imperial City Guards, and then to the Zhanyu Army taking turns in Gyeonggi...
A total of twenty-three spies of the Ping Dynasty were uncovered!
You must know that the last time Xia State tied up the top leaders of Shenlinjing from Pingping Country and sent them to Qi State, they were unable to dig out any important characters.
But this time, the twenty-three people seemed to have woven a huge dark web in Qi State. They don't know each other and only act when necessary for the same goal.
There are many high-ranking officials among them. There was a doctor from the Ministry of Etiquette who presided over the ceremony, there was Li Yougui, the third-rank Qingpai leader who was born in one of the four major Qingpai families... and there was even Yan Tu, the commander of the Rain-Destroying Army!
A person of the rank of Commander-in-Chief of the Nine Soldiers is actually a high-ranking official in the Ping Dynasty!
This is almost impossible to happen in other hegemonic countries.
Only Qi, as the "youngest" hegemon among the top six in the world, rose too fast and expanded too quickly. In the process, it laid many hidden dangers.
Qi State's iron hoof traveled across the Eastern Region, conquering countless countries and absorbing many talents. While it expanded rapidly, it also created too much hatred and buried too much pain.
This is an experience that every hegemonic country has had, and it requires sufficient historical depth to digest them.
The current state of Qi is obviously still too "young".
A general like Yan Tu, who had already fought for Qi when Jiang Shu was still the prince, had he not revealed his flaws this time, who could have discerned his intentions?
But these old acne buried in Qi Guo's body, this time, Jiang Wuqi used his body as bait to gouge them out.
Even if there are some fish that slip through the net, they are just small players and cannot pose any threat.
"Why, the news about His Highness Eleven seems to have touched you a lot?" Chong Xuansheng asked in the driving carriage.
The army has gradually evacuated Xingyue Plains, and the troops of Xu Kingdom have returned to the hands of Xu Kingdom people. Except for Xu Guo Li Shuwen, all the talented people who led the fight can also rest.
Of course, although they are all talented people who have returned home with great honors, they are not all on the same road, and they have their own kinship and distance.
For example, Chong Xuansheng immediately pulled Jiang Wang into his carriage and interrogated him about various stories about the outer world.
Except for Jiang Wang, who had no intention of participating in the war, all the prodigies of Qi brought their own followers or clan soldiers, and they all had personal guards on the battlefield. It is these people who are now being brought back to Qi. At that time, the camp was divided, and Chong Xuansheng, Yan Fu, and Li Longchuan also gathered a group of personal soldiers for Jiang Wang. Unfortunately, Jiang Wang left the field at night and was of no use.
This time, when all the geniuses gathered together, their accompanying teams formed a motorcade.
From the bottom of his heart, Mr. Jiang certainly wanted to sit with Brother Yan Xian. It was not that he was coveting the luxury of a top-notch carriage, but that he was simply "smart and studious" and liked chatting with knowledgeable people!
Furthermore, although Chong Xuan Sheng's carriage was not bad, there was a big fat man on the right and an iron lump on the opposite side. No matter how spacious it was, it was still a bit crowded.
Lord Jiang has enjoyed so much wealth that he no longer wants to endure hardship when he can afford it...
Amidst the sound of wheels rattling, Zhong Xuansheng continued: "I remember he targeted you in Yunwu Mountain."
"It's not aimed at me. He was protecting the dignity of the royal family at that time. Besides..." Jiang Wang turned to look out the car window.
The news of the death of the eleventh prince was also known to Zhong Xuansheng through emergency channels, but it has not spread to everyone now. The returning team is still immersed in the joy of Xingyueyuan's victory, and most people are looking forward to the rewards after returning home.
He sighed: "It is difficult to arouse disgust for a character like His Highness Eleven, even if he is on the opposite side."
Chong Xuan Sheng thought for a while, nodded and said, "I have no choice but to admit this."
"Speaking of which..." Jiang Wang said: "After returning from the Yellow River Meeting and presenting gifts at the Imperial Ancestral Temple, His Highness the Eleventh Prince once summoned me alone."
"I know this." Zhong Xuansheng said casually: "Didn't those highnesses recruit you?"
Jiang Wang shook his head: "The Eleventh Prince summoned me, not to recruit, but to compete with me."
Zhong Xuan Sheng's crooked sitting posture towards Fourteen suddenly straightened up. Although he was straight, he was still a puddle of fat. After all, he showed a somewhat serious attitude: "Spar with you?"
"Yes." Jiang Wang said, "He said he wanted to see who is the best in the world."
"This is not like what he would say..." Chongxuan Sheng said: "It seems that you have won."
Jiang Wang glanced at him: "You have so much confidence in me?"
Chong Xuan Sheng said: "With your character, if you lose, you will be embarrassed to take on the name of the number one imperial palace in Qing history."
"After Duanhun Gorge, of course I was confident that there was no difference between ancient and modern times in the Inner Palace. But at that time..." Jiang Wang said with some regret: "In a situation where life and death cannot be distinguished, even though I am undefeated, I can't beat him. "
Zhongxuan Sheng said with emotion: "Can he really compete with the leader in the inner palace?"
"He may be more powerful than you think." Jiang Wang said.
Zhong Xuansheng understood somewhat: "His Royal Highness Eleven is indeed a person who makes people feel sorry for him. His style often makes people ignore his age. I really didn't expect that he would have such out-of-character moments... Hey, I even made a special trip to find you to fight and ask who is the best in the world."
Challenging a fellow genius to prove his courage was indeed not something Jiang Wuqi would do.
With his structure and mind, he should be focusing on the general trend of the world.
Even Jiang Wang himself, when he went to the Changsheng Palace, was actually prepared to refuse the solicitation and wanted to make it clear to Jiang Wuqi. Unexpectedly, it was a peak showdown.
Jiang Wuqi turned the world around in the palm of his hand, leaving a very deep impression on him. Jiang Wuqi broke through the fire world like a cook and a cow, which also opened up ideas for him to further perfect the fire world technique.
Now that I think about it...
Was it at that time that the young eleventh prince had already decided to use his body as bait?
The rare "lack of tune" that Zhong Xuansheng said about Jiang Wuqi was the last of his youthful spirit...
"I heard that he made a divine appearance in Yunwu Mountain and subdued two divine disciples with a flip of his palm. I really want to know, if he is not sick, if he is in his prime, can he compete with the peak state of my inner palace... "
Jiang Wang shook his head: "It's a pity that there will never be an answer."
If Guan Yan fails to achieve Star Lord, the monk who has been the most enlightened monk in Xuankong Temple for 500 years will just be a lost story.
Jiang Wuqi has withered now, and not many people know that he also had the opportunity to compete for invincibility in the inner palace.
So many heroes from ancient times are all the dust of history!
It's a pity and a memory.
There was a murmur outside the carriage. Jiang Wang took a look and realized that the team was about to leave Xu Kingdom unknowingly, and Xu Kingdom's army was constantly dispersing.
Not long after, a tall, thin young man with gentle eyebrows approached the carriage. With a sincere expression on his face, he raised his hands and saluted: "There is a boundary monument ahead. I will send you off for a thousand miles, but you must say goodbye eventually. The friendship of shoulder to shoulder on the battlefield, written in writing This life will be unforgettable. I hope that Brother Jiang and Brother Chongxuan will achieve great success and show their great ambitions!"
The person who came was none other than Li Shuwen, the genius of Xu Kingdom.
Judging from the look of him, he must have been coming in one carriage after another to pay his respects.
Not far behind him, the cold-faced woman riding on the horse was Mrs. Xidu, a powerful person in the divine realm of Xu Kingdom.
"We are both in the East Region, and we will eventually meet again." Jiang Wang returned the gift seriously: "I also wish Brother Li peace, happiness, and everything goes well."
Mrs. Xidu stopped her horse not far away, which was actually a kind of support for Li Shuwen. Probably because he was worried that Li Shuwen would not be respected if he came to visit alone.
But as a powerful Shenlin and a high-ranking official in the Xu Kingdom, she could not personally knock on the carriage one by one to say goodbye to the young talents of the Qi Kingdom. Therefore, such a situation has formed, which makes some small countries feel sad and cautious.
They have to express respect for Qi State while retaining their self-esteem as much as possible. The balance between this is not easy to grasp.
After Jiang Wang exchanged greetings with Li Shuwen, he just bowed his hand to Mrs. Xidu from a distance and said nothing more.
Mrs. Xidu nodded slightly in return.
In this battle, Xu State achieved a nominal victory, and Qi State's resource support would never be lacking. But those soldiers who died on the battlefield were truly dead. Not enough time to replenish.
It's victory, it's also defeat. The future is lost.
The backs of Xu Guo's genius and senior officials of Xu Guo are inevitably sad to see.
After Li Shuwen walked away, Chong Xuansheng said slowly: "Remember what I told you? In the Xingyue Yuan War, in order to limit the scale of the war, we had better not kill more than three Jingguo geniuses. indivual."
Jiang Wang looked at him.
He continued: "For Jingguo, the number is five."
Chong Xuan Sheng said nothing more, but he had already said everything.
The truth of the world is sometimes extremely cruel.
Compared with Qi State, Jing State is stronger, so Jing State has more room to kill.
Today, Xu's army suffered heavy casualties, and Li Shuwen still had to say goodbye and greet the geniuses of Qi one by one under the care of Mrs. Xidu. Isn't it the same reason?
As "The Theory of Potential" says - "Why is this so? Strong and weak forces are different!"
Jiang Wang was silent for a moment.
But what he thought about was not how cruel the world was.
But at this moment, it was Chong Xuan Sheng who was riding in the same carriage with him.
Zhong Xuansheng always emphasized to him how cruel the world was and always made him understand the so-called "reality". But when in danger, the fat man always stood by his side.
"Okay." Jiang Wang patted his butt and stood up: "I'm going to talk to Brother Yan Xian!"
"What are you talking about?" Chong Xuansheng asked casually.
Jiang Wangni glanced at him, a little arrogantly: "A topic among scholars."
In Chong Xuan Sheng's eyes widening with effort, Jiang Wang lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and walked away proudly.
The fat man snorted dissatisfiedly.
He turned to Fourteen and said, "Did you see that? Xu Gao'e's arrogant moral character has really been ruined."
As he spoke, he leaned towards Fourteenth: "Finally gone! Let me tell you, he is no more an eyesore!"
Fourteen remained silent and placed the black epee between her and Chong Xuan Sheng.
Zhong Xuansheng turned around very naturally and lay on the other side of the carriage.
"It's so boring on this road."
He said dryly.
Fourteen said not a word.
