The empress was also surprised, but quickly calmed down: "It's surprising to be true, but I have already suspected it. I once saw a tablet enshrining him in a remote village. According to the village elder, it has been enshrined for more than two hundred years, so

, this person is definitely not young, but I never expected that he is the number one in the world."

Jiang Fan smiled bitterly: "You even hid it from me. The old guy is not a good person. And I didn't expect that his cultivation was so powerful. As a whole old demon, you don't know how scary the scene was at that time."

The empress said: "When we were at Qingfeng Gorge, I felt that he was a great threat to me, but that was just intuition and very vague."

Jiang Fan thought for a while and said curiously: "Tell me, between him and Xuanyuan, who is the best in the world?"

The empress shook her head: "Xuanyuan Fusheng and I have never fought before, so it's hard to judge. But Mr. Sun, he hides too deeply and seems... unwilling to take action."

Jiang Fan also felt this way about Sun Daotong, but I don't know why.

After a long while, Jiang Fan sighed: "Even if the old guy is so powerful, there is still nothing he can do about Xiao Nuomi."

The empress said: "Fortunately, we have found the person and also found clues to the Ling Sect. There is finally hope."

Jiang Fan nodded: "This game with Poppy also resulted in nameless disfigurement, but I only gained so much..."

The empress shook her head: "It's not just that. You and Poppy took advantage of each other. Even though you couldn't do anything to her because of Xiao Nuomi, you even helped her deal with those gangs, which also caused Poppy to take charge of the Yu family, but you didn't spoil her either.

No. The Ziyang Sect has been drained by you, and it has given you a chance to deal with the Zheng family, and you even got help from the Thousand Buddhas Temple, which is great."

Jiang Fan was actually just barely satisfied. After all, he always felt a little regretful about this trip.

But how can things in this world always go as one wishes? As the empress said, it is almost acceptable.

"This journey went really fast, but in the end, Wei State was the first to target the Human Emperor's canonization."

Jiang Fan briefly talked about what happened in the Wei Kingdom and wanted to hear the empress' opinion on the matter of fiefdom.

"Wei Guo bore the brunt. It's not surprising that he took the lead. What's strange is you. You shouldn't have reacted so early. So is Cao Zijian really so important?"

Jiang Fan thought for a moment: "You know, although he is not the only reason, Cao Zijian is indeed useful to me."

"A repeat of what happened in Jin?"

Jiang Fan suddenly looked at her: "No, if I tell you, I want to create another queen... what do you think?"

The empress was not surprised at all, she just smiled slightly: "Cao Ying is a little too affectionate."

Jiang Fan said calmly: "Isn't it a good thing?"

The empress said: "You make up your own mind, but Cao Zijian may not be able to guess your thoughts. Although this person is indecisive, he is not without talent, but he just doesn't realize it at the moment."

Jiang Fandao: "Cao Lao Er actually just wants to save his life. He is not suitable to be a king. If he knew my thoughts, he might not agree with me, but he would definitely not agree with me interfering in the affairs of Wei State. Regarding the country, he can

Don’t give in even an inch. So, I can’t let him see my intentions clearly now.”

"So, you will fully support him in public?"

"Yes, but the things behind it are actually Xiaohong's."

The empress looked at her strangely: "You may be thinking too easily. It is unrealistic to want to peacefully transform Wei State. I'm afraid we will end up going to war."

Jiang Fan sighed softly: "You have to try your best."

The empress shook her head: "It is impossible for people to take into account their emotions and state affairs at the same time. It will do no good for you to be so entangled."

Jiang Fan also knew it, but he was also helpless. He really didn't want to see Xiao Hong on the battlefield in the future. By then, where would his personal emotions go in the face of national events?

The empress knew that he needed time and did not discuss this issue too much. Instead, she talked about the fiefdom.

"The King of Wei was worried that the Qin State would use this to directly expand its territory. Without the buffer zone in the middle, the two sides would have a seamless border. This is not what he wants to see."

"But it's what you want to see, and for you, the time is almost here."

"The strategy of distant friendship and close attack is correct to a certain extent. Wei State is too close to me. With its restriction in front of me, it is difficult for me to let go of my hands and explore distant places. But you..."

She looked at Jiang Fan: "Obviously we need to extend this time."

Jiang Fan did not refute. He had already made up his mind when he thought about accepting this fiefdom. He would have to get it for at least a while to try his idea. Although the possibility was extremely low, he did not expect to be completely successful.

It would be nice to reduce the number of battles and killings.

"In the first five-year plan, there is no war. I don't know if you can still agree with my idea."

"Three years have passed. You have proved many things, but you cannot prove that it is possible to leave the war. You have long realized that the world is coming. I can only tell you that extending the front line may reduce the killing, but it does not

It will change the facts, let alone reduce hatred."

Jiang Fan looked at her: "That's right, but I understand that you also want to conquer Wei State at the lowest possible cost, and you also hope to have a Wei State that is not so riddled with holes."

The empress nodded: "This is actually the limit of what you can achieve with your current method. I am willing to try it. You can go ahead and do it. I can at least promise you that the first five-year plan will still go as you wish.

.Unless someone offends me first.”

Jiang Fan nodded: "That's enough."

The empress said: "What you have to face now is how to organize your fiefdom. Paradise City is the first level you have to face."

Jiang Fan sighed slowly: "Be honest?"

The empress said: "It's time for some things, and there's no point in hiding them any longer."

Jiang Fan looked at her: "To be honest, when did you start doubting Paradise City?"

The empress said: "The first time I entered the city, Ji Le's reaction to you was very strange. But it couldn't support my suspicion, and it didn't even let me think in that direction. It wasn't until later that I discovered that you had a huge and sophisticated spy system.

System, I started to pay attention to it, but you understand, I said I would not investigate you, and I absolutely would not. However, I couldn't block my intuition, but at that time I still thought you were just a high-level executive of Bliss."

The empress was silent for a moment and continued: "Later, as you began to make arrangements in the Qin State, some things gradually unfolded. There were more things, and the authority you used became more and more beyond the normal scope. Moreover, you seemed to be deliberately showing something, and many people were involved.

After being transferred from Paradise to Mortal Residence and Lishan Mountain, I had to think so. But I am really surprised that a young man like you can actually become this generation of Sky Fox."

Jiang Fan let out a long breath and said, "I finally spoke out, and I feel a lot more enlightened."
