Jiang Wang lowered his eyes and stared at the Changye Dao in his hand. He raised his hand to ask Shan Qiyu, who had come to report that there were guests, to step aside. Then he asked Tong Bo, "Where is that place?"
Tong Bo said quietly: "That is the land of Jingwei. I told you before that this knife was picked up by the Marquis after going through many hardships. It is indeed not true, because it is the only thing that the Marquis brought back. , the Marquis was very secretive about the affairs of the Jingwei land, he just arranged some things and then... left."
Jiang Wang was slightly startled, "Leaving?!"
Of course he understood what this meant, but he just realized that at that time, his father Jiang Qi had died. He was really dead. After that, he did not see his father again, but there would always be new things from the outside delivered to him. Let him always think that his father is alive until the so-called disappearance.
Tong Bo said sadly: "Master Hou was seriously injured. He returned home with his last breath. I think he wanted to take a look at you again, but he didn't have time."
"Due to some issues, he had to make proper arrangements. When he wanted to see you, he stood a few steps away from your room. After all, the Marquis failed to take another step forward... "
Jiang Wang was silent for a long time and said: "He did the right thing. If you only want to see me, you may not have the chance to make arrangements. Then you will all do terrible things in grief and anger, and the result will be Die."
"You lied to me just to make me grow up a little bit more. Hating him or even ignoring him is more unbearable than losing him when you love him."
Uncle Tong stretched out his hand to caress Jiang Wang's head and said softly: "The most important arrangement of the Marquis is to let you grow up healthily. The affairs of the elders have nothing to do with you. He feels very guilty and cannot cure your illness. He My last thought is just to keep you and us alive."
"Of course we are willing to allow the Marquis to see you for the last time. We are emotional and suspicious of the person in the capital of God. We are willing to go to die, but the Marquis is not willing."
"I also thought that if the Marquis saw you and died in front of you, your emotions might also lead to your death, so this is actually the best result, even if we are very unwilling to do so."
Jiang Wang tightened his grip on the Changye Knife and said: "That person let my father go because it was temporarily beneficial to him, but it is impossible to keep my father alive forever. There are only two situations. That person killed my father, or he killed him. Before I killed my father, my father was in danger in the Jingwei land and came back with a seriously injured body, dying of his own life."
Fu Zhaojun comes from the land of Jingwei, where there are more terrifying monsters than those in Naihe Sea. Most of them existed during the Battle of Zhushen. It is quite incredible that Jiang Qi did not die directly there, but returned to Hun City. .
Jiang Wang could naturally guess that there must be other stories here.
It is difficult for the monsters in the Jingwei Land to escape at will. It is not easy for people outside the Jingwei Land to find where the Jingwei Land is, not to mention entering it. After all, ordinary people cannot even know the existence of the Jingwei Land.
Tong Bo had only heard Jiang Qi mention the Jingwei Land, but did not really know what it was like. Therefore, he even suspected that Emperor Sui had done something when Jiang Qi mistakenly entered the Jingwei Land.
When Jiang Qi was alive, he was thinking about how to kill Chen Jinghuai every day. But when he was about to die, he just wanted his children and people around him to live, so he didn't say much about what happened in the Jingwei land. .
Just because Chen Jinghuai did not take the opportunity to destroy the entire Xunyang Marquis Mansion does not mean that it had nothing to do with Jiang Qi's death.
Maybe he is just waiting for the Black Flame Army to show up and have a reason to end the past completely. The only problem is that if Chen Jinghuai wants to kill Jiang Qi, the possibility of letting Jiang Qi return to the Hou Mansion alive is very low. After all, after so many years, he cannot guarantee Do you still understand Jiang Qi?
Even though Jiang Qi told everything, it was difficult to pose a threat to Chen Jinghuai. He could take action as soon as the Black Flame Army made a move. So why the Black Flame Army made a move was entirely up to him. All he had to do was Let the world know that the Black Flame Army is indeed taking action against Shendu.
Therefore, Jiang Wang could not determine why his father Jiang Qi died.
But this is actually not that important anymore.
Jiang Qi wanted to kill Chen Jinghuai, so Jiang Wang had reason to kill Chen Jinghuai.
What he needs to care more about is the Jingwei land.
When we can go there, we may have the opportunity to learn more.
Before that, he still had to avoid Chen Jinghuai as much as possible until he could step into the divine capital with an invincible attitude.
He believed it wouldn't be long.
...
The middle hall of the Hou Mansion.
The atmosphere is quiet.
The prime minister has been holding a tea cup since he sat down. Except for the appearance of Shan Qiyu at the beginning, until now, there has been no other person, and even Shan Qiyu has not shown up again. It can be seen that the prime minister is not in a good mood.
There was some movement outside the hall.
The prime minister looked sideways and saw Jiang Wang slowly stepping across the threshold, waving hello to him, then sitting directly at the main seat, pouring himself a cup of tea, drinking it in one gulp, then vomiting. He said with a smile: "I've been waiting for a long time, some things have delayed me, I'm really sorry."
The prime minister hid his emotions and said with a smile: "Mr. Jiang is busy with something, I should be considerate, not to mention I haven't waited long."
Jiang Wang didn't seem to doubt his presence. Looking at the rather slovenly appearance of the prime minister, he asked, "Why did you come to Huncheng to see me?"
The prime minister put the tea cup on the table next to him and said: "Mr. Jiang's reputation for weakly crowned bathing snow is not limited to Kutan. There are rumors in various places. If nothing else, many people are curious and even directly draw conclusions, thinking that Mr. Jiang is the number one genius in the Sui Dynasty, and I think that is indeed the case."
He looked at Jiang Wang, who raised his eyebrows slightly, and continued: "As we all know, the number one genius in the Sui Kingdom is none other than Han Yan. Although Panmen has a General He Lang, they have more demonstrated their existing strength. In terms of talent, they are naturally inferior to Mr. Jiang, after all, they are not weak, and they are much older than Mr. Jiang."
Jiang Wang said calmly: "Talent doesn't mean everything. Whether it's Han Yan or He Langjiang, they can kill me easily."
The prime minister said: "Although it is true, Mr. Jiang's potential cannot be ignored. If we were at the same age, I believe that even most people would believe that Mr. Jiang would be stronger than them. This is the basis for judgment. It is nothing more than Can it grow?"
Jiang Wang poured himself another cup of tea and said with a smile: "Just a few words of compliment will do. Let's get straight to the point and state the purpose."
The prime minister said solemnly: "Mr. Jiang is extremely talented, unparalleled in the past and present, and he has the blood of the royal family of the Qi Kingdom. Once, the Qi Kingdom was one of the best and almost unified the world. After he retires from the world, he will have many enemies."
"Then Mr. Jiang's reputation will be mixed, and people who haven't noticed you before will inevitably start to have certain thoughts about you. For example, Mr. Jiang needs someone to support him so that he can grow up without any worries."
Jiang Wang raised his eyebrows again and said half-jokingly: "Except for Shendu or a large sect like Ku Tan Sword Pavilion, who is the former enemy of Qi State who can kill me? And what energy can protect you behind you? Stay with me?"
The prime minister said: "My young master does not have the power to compete with those top sects, nor can he ignore the divine capital. But with Mr. Jiang's help, these problems will not be a problem sooner or later. Only by helping each other can we go forward in the long run." , I think Mr. Jiang doesn’t want to just become a vassal.”
Jiang Wang fell into thinking.
The prime minister picked up the tea cup and took a sip, thinking that the tea was good, but it was already cold.
Jiang Wang noticed it, so he called Shan Qiyu to change the hot tea, and asked: "Who is your young master?"
After thanking him, the prime minister replied: "In the future, Mr. Jiang will naturally understand. I can only tell you that this matter is not a loss."
Jiang Wang smiled and said: "It's not a loss at all. I don't even know who your young master is. What's the disadvantage?"
The prime minister said cryptically: "My young master has a very high status."
Jiang Wang was surprised.
Of course, extremely high status has different meanings.
Even a descendant of former royal families like him can be said to have a very high status.
If it was directly the royal family of the Sui Kingdom, Jiang Wang didn't want to understand, what did the prime minister mean when he mentioned the Qi Kingdom? Is it a resonance of identity or simply a lack of understanding of what the descendants of the Qi royal family are like in the divine capital?
But the answer is nothing more than two.
He is a descendant of the royal family of the former kingdoms with certain thoughts, and a descendant of the Sui royal family with certain thoughts.
If it's the latter, that seems to be getting interesting.
The prime minister took out something from his arms, it was a thumb ring, there was nothing special about it and it didn't look expensive. He said, "This is a token. If Mr. Jiang is willing, we can use this to communicate with each other." "
Jiang Wang took the ring without much hesitation and said, "I'll think about it."
The prime minister smiled and said, "Then I'll take my leave."
Jiang Wang said: "Shall I see you off?"
The prime minister waved his hand and said, "Mr. Jiang, stay here. I hope we can meet again soon."
Jiang Wang also waved his hand and said, "Then I won't give it away."
The prime minister had already stepped out of the central hall, turned around and saluted, and said, "Mr. Jiang does not need to see you off far."
Seeing the prime minister disappear, Jiang Wang's smile gradually faded. He casually stuffed the ring into his arms, lay on the seat, and thought seriously about something.
The next moment, two figures broke into the middle hall.
The leader is A Kong, followed closely by Ru Yan Qing.
Jiang Wang came back to his senses, smiled at Ru Yanqing and said, "I have arranged for your parents. You will live in the Hou Mansion. You will have a look around later. You can live in whichever room you like. You can find it if you have nothing to do." Your parents are both in Qixia Street anyway, so there is no rush to practice."
Ru Yanqing is different from Su Changluo. After all, the former has not laid a solid foundation. Although the immortal's caress can help her to understand all the acupoints, building the foundation for a hundred days is particularly important. Jiang Wang didn't think about it and just helped her enter. Dong Ming, unless Ru Yan Qing's qualifications are really so bad that he won't be able to achieve perfection for several years.
Jiang Wang wanted to save energy and improve the strength of the Black Flame Army first.
This will allow them to better attract monsters, and it is also a good way to consolidate their cultivation after improving. Jiang Wang only needs to stay at home and wait to absorb nutrients, which can be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
The Night God is still sleeping, and his true nature is dim. Jiang Wang really needs to stay in Huncheng to recuperate.
Even if they are very weak monsters, he will not refuse them now.
For the sake of the people and to prevent them from being frightened all day long, Jiang Wang decided to open a city gate southeast of Qixia Street. Because there is a cliff to the south and there are piles of rubble outside the east city wall, he only needs to dig out the rocks to clear the way. , just let Qixia Street Chengmen Road be separated from other streets.
He was thinking about these things, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Akong stretching out his hand and showing an arrogant face.
Jiang Wang reacted quickly and saw Ru Yanqing next to him looking very expectant. He threw the heavy money bag to A Kong and said with a slight smile: "Remember to bring me a copy of the first prize in Lane 3, Pinglan Street." Home’s soup cakes.”
Akong nodded casually, then glanced back at Ru Yanqing proudly, and strode out.
Ru Yanqing bowed to Jiang Wang politely and asked, "Mr. Haokan, is the soup cake at the first store in Lane 3 of Pinglan Street delicious?"
Jiang Wang rubbed her head and said with a smile: "I used to eat it often, and it naturally tastes good. You will know after you try it."
Ru Yanqing nodded and called his sister to catch up with A Kong.
Some people died, but not completely...
