Chapter 64: Zhang Shoufu
Twilight pursed her lips tightly.
Leng Qiao's face trembled slightly.
The sword she pulled out was just like that time in the Hidden Dragon Palace, and Jiang Wang directly grabbed it with her bare hands.
Although Jiang Wang's normal strength is not something that Twilight can contend with, the power of the Divine Kingdom that has emerged since last night has not yet dissipated, so it is really easy to control Twilight.
The twilight girl is very stubborn.
Jiang Wang could see it.
And it was indeed his fault in the first place.
Seeing that Twilight Xia was a little pitiful at the moment, Jiang Wang said, "I'll let go, don't swing your sword and cut me again."
Twilight glared at him, silent.
Jiang Wang slowly let go.
But before it was far away from the sword, Twilight had already quickly collected the sword, and then raised the sword and slashed again.
Jiang Wang could only take the white blade empty-handed again, and said angrily, "Don't talk about martial arts!"
Twilight said coldly, "I didn't swing my sword."
Jiang Wang was stunned for a moment, yes, you are raising your sword and slashing.
Then he was even more annoyed and said, "I'm talking about how you use your sword!"
Twilight just stared at him coldly.
During the stalemate, Zhang Qinian's figure appeared.
Jiang Wang immediately said, "Take care of your girl!"
Zhang Qinian's face was calm and said, "What are you doing?"
Jiang Wang said, "I'm here to visit Zhang Shoufu."
Zhang Qinian sneered: "Marquis Xunyang, in the Qianlong Palace, you messed around and injured Xia Er, and turned your head to visit my grandfather again, you are very thick-skinned."
Jiang Wang said, "Normal."
Zhang Qinian frowned and said, "My grandfather won't see you, where did you come from?" Xiu Shu
Jiang Wang asked, "Is it your meaning or Zhang Shoufu's meaning?"
Zhang Qinian said, "You don't care who you mean, you are not welcome here anyway."
Jiang Wang glanced at Twilight, who was trying to pull the sword away, and said, "If you want it, then I won't listen."
Zhang Qinian said in a deep voice: "You dare to trespass on the Shoufu Mansion!"
Jiang Wang smiled, "I dare to destroy the Hidden Dragon Palace, why don't I dare."
Zhang Qinian looked at Jiang Wang silently, and suddenly called, "Xia'er."
When Twilight heard this, she withdrew her sword again.
Jiang Wang didn't stop and let go.
And Twilight didn't use the sword again this time, and retreated behind Zhang Qinian.
"Wait."
Leaving two words, Zhang Qinian turned around and went home with Duxia.
Jiang Wangjing stood outside the mansion.
It didn't take long for Twilight to reappear.
Although he didn't speak, Jiang Wang understood the meaning, so he smiled and crossed the threshold.
"Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
Twilight ignored it and only led the way in front.
The Shoufu family is not very large, and there are no luxurious furnishings, just like an ordinary mansion.
Stepping into the arch, there is a small courtyard, and there is even a vegetable patch next to the wall, and there is a figure squatting in front of the vegetable patch.
Jiang Wang raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the twilight next to him.
Twilight held her sword and was silent.
The figure squatting in front of the vegetable field, slowly stood up, moved his waist, this person looked at the age of about sixty or seventy years old, from his every move, he could show the posture that seemed to be really such an age, he turned his head to look at Jiang Wang, and said with a smile: "Jiang Qi's son, what are you looking for me?"
Jiang Wang was surprised: "Zhang Shoufu?"
Twilight had turned away.
Zhang Shoufu beckoned to Jiang Wang, sat straight on the rattan chair next to the vegetable patch, poured himself a cup of tea, blew a breath, and said, "Feel free."
Jiang Wang sat silently opposite Zhang Shoufu, looked at the vegetable field, and said, "Zhang Shoufu is not the same as I think."
Zhang Shoufu took a sip of tea and said, "I'm just an ordinary person with the identity of Shousuke."
Jiang Wang said, "Since you are the first assistant, it is difficult to be an ordinary person."
Zhang Shoufu shook his head with a smile and said, "Explain the intention."
Jiang Wang pondered for a moment and said, "Lord Shoufu should already know everything that happened at the prince's birthday banquet last night, I don't have anything to explain, I just want to ask, what does Lord Shoufu think?"
Zhang Shoufu smiled and asked, "Look with your eyes?"
Jiang Wang was silent.
Zhang Shoufu continued: "You didn't come to apologize to Qi Nian and Twilight, but since you wanted to visit, you should have heard something about me, your behavior in the Hidden Dragon Hall is actually very deliberate, I don't care what your ultimate goal is, Your Majesty didn't blame, and I don't bother to pay attention to it."
Jiang Wang asked, "How much does Shousuke-sama know about my father, Jiang Qi?"
Zhang Shoufu squinted slightly, and said, "Jiang Qi's cultivation qualifications are poor, so he is good-looking and flamboyant. Among the descendants of the royal families of the former countries, he is the most famous and has the best life, and he is also the most hostile person to the descendants of the royal families of those countries who followed Lu Jianluan into Qin."
Jiang Wang's face was puzzled.
Zhang Shoufu said, "Quite simply, after the Battle of Mozhang, the kingdoms recuperated, and Sui Taizong had the ambition to fully accept the power of the kingdoms. The Sui State is a latecomer, and none of the previous countries has a deeper background than the Sui State, but correspondingly, in the face of Mozhang, it also suffered the most losses." Ь.
"At that time, the Sui State was more powerful, and Sui Taizong was also a hero, directly causing the kingdoms to fall apart, so to speak, the Great Sui was the enemy of the descendants of the former countries."
"But Sui Taizong's methods are clever, and the countries have become his pawns, and many of them are conquests and deaths from each other, which is equivalent to bloodless soldiers."
"Therefore, the descendants of these dynasties did not have much hatred for the Great Sui, because in their hearts there was someone else who had the enemy."
"Lu Jianluan is the prince of the Qin Kingdom, with him taking the lead, directly annihilating the Sui army, or the descendants of the royal families of the countries who know some truth, they have responded, they undoubtedly want to gather everyone in the countries to fight against the Great Sui, but they have not succeeded."
"It's even more because Sui Taizong has done the word hypocrisy to the extreme, he exterminated the kingdoms on the one hand, and on the other hand, he helped these people, so that some of the remnants of the kingdoms were grateful to Dade, after all, it is extremely difficult to annex the dynasty of the world, and the Great Sui also needs more strength, and these people have become the knife in the hands of the Great Sui."
"For all kinds of reasons, even if something is detected and exposed by Lu Jianluan, there are still many people who don't believe it, either they remain neutral, or there is not much residual strength left, even if they believe it, they don't dare to take risks."
"After all, at that time, some people were already unable to help themselves, and they preferred to survive."
"The remnants of the Qi State chose the Great Sui, and Lu Jianluan established Xitan on the site of Qianqiao, and Sui Qin had some forces of the various countries, and the two sides started a tug-of-war."
"The Great Sui has a national teacher, but he has never shown up."
"There are sword saints in Xitan, and there are also many powerful monks, coupled with the death of Taizong of Sui, the new emperor of Sui certainly has the means to complete the grand feat of returning most of the forces of all countries to Sui, but once he made a mistake, Xitan grew stronger and stronger, and finally became a situation where two tigers competed for power."
"It is natural that the descendants of the royal families of the countries in Xitan will hate the royal families of the countries that have returned to the Great Sui, and in their opinion, these people are both stupid and hateful, and the Qi State that has helped the Great Sui the most is the first to bear the brunt."
Jiang Wang was silent, not knowing what to say.
He raised his eyes and glanced at Zhang Shoufu, "As the first assistant of the Great Sui, calling Sui Taizong hypocritical, and this kind of thing should also be forbidden to be talked about by the Great Sui, Lord Shoufu told it eloquently, but in front of me, a descendant of the royal family of the Qi Kingdom, did he want me to be more hostile to the Great Sui?"
Zhang Shoufu said with a smile: "The old marquis is not stupid, but Sui Taizong's means are higher."
"Of course Jiang Qi is not stupid, because he was born in the Great Sui, where will he know the truth."
"There is no best time, the descendants of the royal families of the rest of the countries that have been completely tied to the side of the Great Sui, those who don't know don't know, and those who know must pretend not to know."
"Because they need their strength to deal with the rest of the dynasties, they naturally won't do anything to them at first, but without Sui Taizong, the new emperor of Sui was a little confused in his later years, and he was eyeing Xitan, and he didn't dare to use his brains casually against the descendants of the countries in the Sui realm."
"Therefore, the remnants of the power of the countries are still in their own hands, and one or two families are nothing, but when they are together, they are still a force to be reckoned with, of course, they are no longer able to compete with them at this time
compared to that time."
"Since the signing of the hundred-year deed, Emperor Sui Xindi has moved the idea to seize the military power of the descendants of the royal families of various countries, but he can't be blatant, once these people resist, Xitan will inevitably take the opportunity to make trouble, and this kind of thing can be torn up at any time when needed."
"Even if His Majesty ascends the throne today, he still hasn't come clearly, but his methods are obviously more than those of the new Emperor of Sui, and now there are few descendants of the royal families of the Great Sui Dynasty."
"Time flies, everything will change, the power under the command of these people, those who do not return will disappear naturally, but most of them have no master, they have chosen to serve the Great Sui, they actually don't want to die, after all, many are young juniors, born directly in the Great Sui."
Zhang Shoufu looked at Jiang Wang and said, "The Black Flame Army is still loyal to you, and it is Jiang Qi's royal superiority that has a good way."
Jiang Wang looked back at him calmly, "Shousuke-sama seems to have said a little too much."
Zhang Shoufu smiled, "Then it depends on what you think."
Jiang Wang was silent.
Zhang Shoufu's attitude surprised him greatly.
After saying so much, I didn't see that Zhang Shoufu had any respect for the emperors of the Sui Kingdom, but because of this, Jiang Wang had more doubts in his heart.
He didn't even ask much questions, and Zhang Shoufu chattered about everything that could and couldn't be said.
Are you really sure that Cao Chonglin will not hear these words?
Still is......
Looking at Zhang Shoufu who was smiling in front of him, Jiang Wang suddenly said, "I heard that Lord Shoufu has a profound cultivation, and the kid wants to ask for a lesson or two." Xiu Shu
Zhang Shoufu spread his hands and said, "I'm an old bone, but I haven't been active for many years, where is your young man's opponent?"
Jiang Wang didn't speak, and Youqi had already burst out of his fingertips.
Zhang Shoufu's eyes froze.
The wind overflowed in front of itself.
But the range is only one zhang square.
It was as if there were several invisible walls enveloping the two of them.
Jiang Wang swept up suddenly, the Long Night Knife came out of its sheath, and the table in the middle smashed with a snap, and Zhang Shoufu was expressionless, and with a flick of his fingers, the Long Night Knife deviated from its position, Jiang Wang clenched the handle of the knife and slashed downward.
Zhang Shoufu raised his hand to intercept, and the ground collapsed in an instant.
Billowing smoke and dust soared into the sky.
Outside the courtyard are the figures of Zhang Qinian and Twilight.
Jiang Wang did not hesitate to slash again.
The invisible shrouded walls show faint signs of crumbling.
Due to the tremor of space, cracks appeared out of thin air.
Zhang Qinian wanted to get closer, but was directly shocked by the breath overflowing from the crack.
Jiang Wang's face was solemn, and he raised his sword for the third time, blessing the divinity.
