Chapter Twenty-Three: The Embroidered Messenger

"Is that woman from twenty years ago really dead?" Emperor Qingli asked suddenly.

"If what Jiang Nan said is correct, he should be dead. But her father, Jiang Nan, also said that Jiang Qi should not be surnamed Jiang, and her mother was just a side woman of the Jiang family. ”

"What is not related, which one of the people of the side line will be more powerful than the main house of the lineage? In my opinion, they must be the descendants of Jiang Tai, and it is a pity that one of them died. ”

In order to find the woman surnamed Jiang who disappeared inexplicably twenty years ago, Emperor Qingli sent people to track her for several years, but it was difficult to find her trace. Even at the expense of the Jiang family trying to force her out, he said that he even sat back and ignored such a big matter as the Jiang family, but he didn't expect it to be dead.

On second thought, it's not right! There was a question that had plagued him since twenty years ago.

Back then, King Ding's wife was obviously infertile, and it was for this incident that the eldest princess caused a monstrous disaster. If they were really the Jiang family, why didn't they come to seek revenge earlier?

Perhaps, someone will know better than him.

"Come on, go to Eagle Eagle Mountain to summon the Nine Arts!"

"Back to Your Majesty, the embroidered messenger has returned to Beijing, and he has arrived in front of the palace gate."

The time is so good, if you don't go back sooner or later, but at this time, it seems that everything is known to the Hidden Country Master.

Emperor Qingli sent King Liyang to avoid: "You should step down." ”

"Your Majesty......" The embroidered messenger's nine techniques are cold and dusty, and they are as ruthless as a proud snow lotus on the top of the iceberg.

Emperor Qingli raised his eyes and looked at it, only to see that the person in front of him was pure and peerless, fairy and beautiful, the white clothes were clean and dusty, and the clothes moved without wind.

I can't help but sigh in my heart, why wasn't such a person born in the royal family?

"Is the Hidden Country Master good?"

"It's good that Master can see through the void and not cause trouble to Hongchen."

Yonghe talks, elegant and elegant, and the whole body is scorching, and the "prosperous gentleman" is more than three points? If he was born in the royal family, Emperor Qingli should not hesitate to pass on the throne, but it is a pity that ......

"Do you know the owner of Muyi Villa?"

"Yes."

"Who?"

"Superior."

"Are you a descendant of Jiang Tai?"

"What does Your Majesty think?"

Yes? Emperor Qingli was almost angry! If I had known, I would have asked you! Grinding and chirping, you play riddles with me for a long time!

But seeing that the Jiushu faction was innocent, Emperor Qingli endured it. Sure enough, he studied under the Hidden Country Teacher, and he was as crooked as the strange old man.

"Does the Hidden Country Master know about this person?"

"Yes."

"He's seen this guy?"

"Yes."

Emperor Qingli is really going to be angry, you can't say a few more words, you have to ask you before answering?

"What does he say about this man?"

"Ask him."

You...... Emperor Qingli choked up, and he was tired of talking like this. He endures!

"How is her martial arts better than yours?"

"I'm not invincible."

This answer was expected by Emperor Qingli. A subordinate can still make the Northern Bird Martial Master fearful, and his people should be even more powerful.

"How is it better than the Hidden Nation?"

"Not bad."

Emperor Qingli took a deep breath and took a step back. In just two words, how heavy it is.

The Hidden State Teacher, the martial arts sect of the world, the martial artists of the world are all admired and beyond the reach, and Gao Zu was both jealous and helpless for him during his lifetime. Since Jiang Tai's retreat, there is almost no one in the world who is the opponent of the Hidden Country Division.

Fortunately, now the Hidden Country Master is bent on seeking immortals and asking, far away from the court, his whereabouts are erratic, and he is gradually not used by the heavenly family. This trip also made him live forever in Daweijia's name, and he was looked up to by the world like a god.

When Emperor Qingli was young, he heard Gaozu ask himself more than once, why was Yin Guoshi, a cultivator who was beyond the world and had no desire to cultivate immortals, willing to help him dominate the country. It's weird!

If she really did what Jiushu said, and could fight to a draw with the Hidden Country Master, what kind of terrifying martial arts madman would it be, wouldn't it be one of the great disasters of the country?

Great power to prosper the country with martial arts. Emperor Qingli knew that people with high martial arts were far better than 100,000 elite soldiers, and they talked and laughed in thousands of troops and horses, and took the head of the enemy commander like a bag. If there is no king and the hidden country master to help, Gao Zu will not achieve a hegemony in the era of competition.

It was these two people, one insisted on going into hiding, and the other was born to avoid the world, which made Gao Zu lose this right-hand man and lose the opportunity to dominate the four seas.

The warrior is to the imperial power, the double-edged sword, the benefits and disadvantages are all in one breath, and the palm and control should not be taken lightly.

If you can't use it for yourself, you should get rid of it and ......

Emperor Qingli secretly made up his mind.

As if he had insight into what Emperor Qingli was thinking, Jiushu reminded him: "Your Majesty, don't mess with her." ”

"Why?" The king was unmoved.

"She has a Jiazi skill, three generations of masters have internal strength one after another, and she has done her master's true inheritance. Born intolerant of worldly etiquette and acting in a manner that does not follow the rules and morals, if she is angered......"

"She dares to kill the king!" Emperor Qingli blew his beard and glared, Jiushu was warning him?

He is dignified and respectful, why not be afraid of a woman!

Jiushu lowered his eyes: "Your Majesty, she has a good temperament, she has no kindness of a woman, and it is difficult to find a second person as cold as her in the world." If it weren't for the fact that her mind was injured when she was young, she is depressed to this day, and thus she is disgusted with the world, otherwise if she wanted the world, she would have been bloody and bloody a long time ago, where would she have peace today? Your Majesty should retreat, and pray that she will continue to be confined to her own demons and not pay attention to the world, otherwise with her temperament and strength, if she is unhappy one day, it is okay to kill the king and relieve her boredom. ”

Emperor Qingli choked again, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and was not angry: "Do you want to watch her kill the king!" ”

"Your Majesty, I am entrusted by my family teacher to tell Your Majesty to stay away from Jiang Qi. She came to Ruian City, not for the authority of the country, not for the Zhao royal family, but for the personal enmity of her relatives, her target is not His Majesty, nor the royal family, but someone else. The family teacher knew that he could not eliminate her revenge, and he had made an agreement with her for three chapters, as long as the royal family did not do anything, she would never get involved in the court; As long as her enemies don't strike first, she will never kill them. But if His Majesty makes the first move, how Jiang Qi reacts is not something that the family teacher can control. ”

"Is that true?" The words of the nine techniques made Emperor Qingli feel at ease. It turned out that she didn't come to seek revenge on the Zhao royal family.

"Seriously."

"Stand down, I'll think about it again."

Nine Techniques departed. Soon, Emperor Qingli hurriedly went to the mansion of the eldest princess of Wangjing.

At the same time, the news of Princess Wenyue and her entourage trespassing on Muyi Villa reached Jiang Nan's ears. She knew that she had fallen into a catastrophe, and braved the rain to come to the post house where King Qi was staying, and knocked on the door to see the prosperous gentleman.

In her memory, there was a good time that intoxicated her the most, and it still reincarnates in her mind to this day.

It was a good spring, with a lot of glory. At the Peony Festival, she was not invited, but she wanted to get into the princess flower banquet. was debunked in public and endured the ridicule of everyone.

The gentleman of the prosperous age came to Ma Yiyi angrily, and reached out in a shameful laugh to take her away from the embarrassment.

Someone said something to hinder: "The gentleman of the prosperous world, she ......"

"If there are any consequences, I will bear it."

So domineering, so strong, no need to be submissive, no need to care about other people's feelings. Isn't this the choice of the lover she has longed for since she was a child? In times of crisis, give her a piece of care and keep her safe......

The autumn rain wet Jiang Nan's memory, and the heartbeat of the past gradually blurred, only the cold words of the person in front of him.

"The gentleman of the prosperous world is not here, go back." The porter despised her and treated her like a pestering mosquito.

"Xiao Zhaoyi, you come out, come out. Why are you using me, why are you hurting Sister Qi......"

Just assume she's crazy. She can't forget the rumors in the city, and her father and brother looked at her disappointed eyes: She doesn't owe us, why do you want to hurt her......

The words are still in my ears, and the responsibility is deep. Sister Qi's life experience, only the Jiang family knows best in Ruian City. She had no jealousy, how could she slander Sister Qi?

Lost his soul and ran here, but was turned away. I just want to ask clearly, why do you avoid it?

The rain continued to fall, and the number of onlookers gradually increased.

It's a shame that so many people are pointing in front of the post house. The porter hurried back.

"Xiao Zhaoyi, Xiao Zhaoyi, come out, come out......" She didn't believe it, the sound of the rain could cut off her call?

"County lord, what are you looking for Xiao?"

Dressed in splendid and full of grace, Xiao Zhaoyi stood in front of the post house, still so radiant, but his eyes were so unfamiliar, looking at her completely indifferently, as if he had never met.

The maidservant who held an umbrella for him to cover the rain did not hide her disdain for Jiang Nan: "Phew, there is another frivolous woman who is vainly trying to get the love of my gentleman." ”

"Is it you, is it that you are using me as Sister Jianqi? You weren't careful, were you? You didn't mean it, the princess forced you, right? ”

She leaned forward, her trembling voice clearly not questioning, but revealing a hint of pleading. She couldn't believe that the person in front of her was just using her, he didn't mean to, he had a hard time, as long as he said a word, she was willing to believe it.

"What does the county lord mean, Xiao doesn't understand." He was as humble and gentle as ever. At this moment, it was a great irony in Jiang Nan's eyes.

"You know!" The poignant and raised voice was so unwilling, "I only told you, you promised not to say it, why did you lie to me?" Why do you want to use me to harm Sister Qi'......"

But just a few days ago, at the humiliated chrysanthemum banquet, he was dressed in the light of salvation as many years ago, took her out of the embarrassing situation of death, wiped her full of wine with his own hands, and sent her home.

At that time, she burst into tears. Dominated by an unspeakable longing, shy and timid, wanting to speak and stopping.

"Prosperous Gentleman...... Do you know ...... I like you?

"Shhhh I know. ”

He held up a finger and whispered to stop her. It seems that everything is self-evident, and both sides understand.

The pain she had previously felt low and bitter had become fragrant and sweet, and she was ashamed to look at him again.

Gentleman Shengshi, I know that you are not what Sister Qi said. I apologize for Sister Qi.

No problem. She just misunderstood me and I didn't take it to heart. Is she a relative of yours? It's completely different from you, very arrogant and looks down on people, and I don't know what my family background is?

Sister Qi just doesn't like to talk, and she looks cold, because her aunt's early death when she was a child hit her too hard, and she is not a bad person......

She's your aunt's daughter? That shouldn't be surnamed Jiang. What about her family?

Sister Qi's name is Jiang Qi, she has no home, and her family is not good.

Does she live in your house then?

No, Sister Qi lives outside the city.

Let me guess, Chengdong? Or the west of the city......
