Boiling Sheep...ah no, it's Shao Yu. Shao Yu put aside the questions in his mind that he didn't want to think about and looked up at the sky. It was already late at night. Considering that it was very late and everyone was in such a bad state, plus Although I was very curious about the origin of the sword, I was really afraid of hearing something I didn't want to hear from the goddess, so I simply suggested to Zhang Liang: "Third Master, Tianming is unconscious now, and Shi Lan is also exhausted. "How about you take Tianming back to Xiaoshengxian Manor, and I'll take Shi Lan back to rest?" Zhang Liang shook his head and rejected Shao Yu's suggestion, and asked him,
"Have you forgotten that there is another gift that needs to be picked up tomorrow?"
"Uh..." Shao Yu was stunned, smiled bitterly and scratched his head,
"I really forgot... I had so many things to worry about during my trip tonight, I already forgot about it."
"Ha." Zhang Liang chuckled and shook his head towards Tianming on the ground.
"This gift must not be missed at dawn."
"Shao Yu, you're stuck carrying Tian Ming, let's go get that gift back first."
"Okay." Zhang Liang said this, and of course Shao Yu would not object. This gift came from the hands of Chu Nan Gong. It was not a mortal thing, and it was given to Tianming. He certainly couldn't give it up casually by making a decision for Tianming.
However, Shao Yu also consulted Shi Lan for his opinion.
"Shi Lan, do you want to go back and rest first, or come with me and Third Master?"
"I'm fine, let's go together." Of course Shi Lan chose the latter. I went out late at night and spent half the night, exhausted, just to meet the sage from Chu. How could I give up halfway?
Zhang Liang smiled warmly, stepped forward and said hello,
"Then let's go." Shao Yu hurriedly carried Tian Ming and carried him behind him. He and Shi Lan ran side by side to catch up with Zhang Liang. At this time, the sky was dim and the sunrise was not far away.
…………General’s Mansion, outer room of Li Si’s dormitory. After the candles were extinguished, the room was dark. In the dark shadow, a window was suddenly blown open by the night wind.
Amidst the trembling of the window, a man in black robe with long white hair fluttering in the wind quietly appeared in the house. Standing by the window, shrouded in moonlight, Li Si turned to look at the man in black robes, his expression a little gloomy, and the palms under his sleeves clenched into fists unconsciously.
"Master Li doesn't seem to be very happy to see me." The man in black robe said in a deep and magnetic voice, which seemed to be a little sarcastic.
Li Si's face returned to normal in an instant, and he showed a slight smile. Of course, it was just a very formulaic smile: "Sir, you are joking."
"Not long ago, Niqusha assisted the empire in suppressing the Mohist rebellion in the government city. Mr. Wei Zhuang is naturally a friend."
"It's great to have friends from far away." The man in black robes, also known as Wei Zhuang, raised the corner of his mouth under his hood and replied in a cold tone: "Have you heard of another sentence, Mr. Li?"
"Oh, I'd love to hear the details."
"Sometimes, friends are more dangerous than enemies!" Wei Zhuang raised his head slightly, his eyes under the hood met Li Si's gaze, his tone was full of sarcasm,
"Because you never know when your friends will betray you." These words were clearly mocking Li Si's betrayal of Han Fei.
Li Si knew it well when he heard it, but Mr. Xiangguo has good Qi cultivation skills, so he accepted this sentence without changing his expression, and responded with a smile: "Mr. Wei Zhuang is right, Li Si has been taught. " Seeing that Li Si didn't answer, Wei Zhuang didn't continue to pursue him, and turned to the topic: "The snare, known as the 'imperial weapon', is now under the jurisdiction of Mr. Li, right?"
"good."
"In the snare, there is an adult's subordinate who is using a big sword called 'Giant Que'."
"Ha!" Li Si snorted and responded,
"Mr. Wei Zhuang is really well informed, and he knows everything about such a trivial matter."
"Juque... the sword ranked twelfth in the sword manual can be regarded as a trivial matter. Mr. Li is worthy of being the Prime Minister of the Empire." Wei Zhuang sneered and answered.
Li Si replied casually,
"That was the ranking many years ago, and it hasn't changed."
"Perhaps, there will be some changes this time."
"It sounds like Mr. Li is very confident in his men." Li Si explained unhurriedly,
"Oh, back then he traveled all over the seven countries, constantly challenging masters from all walks of life."
"Because of this, he was wanted by all countries and was sent to death row many times, but he escaped every time and became stronger."
"so……"
"So, it is called Shengqi in the world, right?" Wei Zhuang took over and finished the sentence for Li Si.
"Ha!" Li Si chuckled, said nothing, and continued,
"In the past few years, he has defeated hundreds of masters in a row, causing Juque's ranking in the sword manual to jump to twelfth."
"However, he then suffered a huge defeat and was imprisoned in the most heavily defended prison in the empire from which he never escaped."
"The ranking of Juque has also been fixed at twelfth."
"Mr. Wei Zhuang knows something about this matter." The person who brought Sheng Qi's defeat was the Sword Master Gai Nie who was still loyal to Ying Zheng at that time.
Sheng Qi, who relied on a giant sword to sweep across the world, finally encountered the biggest Waterloo in his life. After being taught a lesson by Ge Nie, he could not get back on his feet.
As an extreme brother-controller, Wei Zhuang doesn't care about Shengqi, and being ranked twelfth in the Sword Book is nothing to him, but he has to take care of everything related to Gai Nie. of.
Li Si obviously knew something about Wei Zhuang's characteristics. However, Wei Zhuang did not want to discuss how Sheng Qi became an imperial lackey, so he decisively changed the subject: "Master Li, do you know where your subordinate is at the moment?" Li Si's brows twitched imperceptibly, and his voice was calm. replied,
"He is, of course, performing his mission."
"Ha!" Wei Zhuang sneered and said meaningfully,
"Sheng Qi is currently outside the city intercepting the thief who stole the Thousand Machine Copper Plate." Li Si's brows trembled again, but he still replied as usual,
"That's exactly who he is."
"But I'm very curious..." Wei Zhuang's hawk-like eyes stared at Li Si coldly,
"How did he accurately know the other party's escape route?"
"This..." Li Si rolled up his sleeves, turned his back, and responded decisively,
"It's not Mr. Wei Zhuang's turn to ask, right?"
"Master Li seems to know something?" Wei Zhuang asked with a half-smile. Li Si did not respond and just replied,
"Mr. Wei Zhuang paid a night visit to the General's Mansion just to ask me about such a trivial matter as Sheng Qi?" Wei Zhuang sneered, but did not continue to press on this point.
As for whether Li Si is as carefree as he appears, you can tell by looking at the clenched fists under his sleeves.
Although he, the prime minister, was theoretically responsible for all Luo Wang's actions in Songhai, he certainly didn't have time to give orders to Luo Wang's killers one by one.
Therefore, Zhao Gao was still responsible for the overall planning, and he was only responsible for making requests to Zhao Gao.
