Chapter 70 Palace of Eternal Life

In the Palace of Eternal Life.

The flowers are blooming outside the window, but spring is still cold.

Jiang Wuqi, the ninth prince of Da Qi, who was clad in fox fur, was drinking medicine from a green jade bowl. The liquid was dark brown. A strange and unpleasant smell was swirling in the air, which made people sick to his stomach.

But his expression was normal, and he slowly swallowed the food in small bites.

There was a book spread out on the table in front of him. He was holding a jasper bowl, drinking medicine, and his eyes fell on the book.

Use books to supplement medicine.

Lei Zhanqian, who was sitting not far away, frowned completely. He really didn't understand how his cousin could drink such a terrible medicine as if nothing had happened. He could still taste it carefully... He just Just smelling it makes me feel miserable!

"This medicine of yours..." Lei Zhanqian covered his nose and asked, "Is there a secret behind it? It tastes completely different from what it smells like?"

Jiang Wuqi finished reading the text in front of him and then chuckled: "My cousin is so curious that he asked someone to fry another bowl with you. How about it?"

"I don't want it!"

Lei Zhanqian quickly refused.

No matter how precious the medicine was, he didn't want to offend his tongue. For an extraordinary monk who aspires to reach the top, there is almost nothing that he cannot tolerate, but there is no need to ask for hardship.

After Jiang Wuqi slowly drank the medicine in the jade bowl, he spoke again: "There is something worth mentioning. I sent people to check Zhang Linchuan, and three groups of people went there, but none of them came back. "

Lei Zhanqian, who was usually arrogant and arrogant, showed no sharpness in front of Jiang Wuqi. He was like an ordinary cousin, speaking casually and chatting about various things.

Jiang Wuqi wiped his mouth slowly with a snowkerchief and asked casually: "Zhang Linchuan?"

Lei Zhanqian smiled: "That's the pseudonym Jiang Wang used in the floating land world."

Jiang Wuqi folded the snow handkerchief gently and put it aside, still staring at his book: "Why are you checking this?"

"Don't you think there's a problem?" Lei Zhanqian said: "Jiang Wang is a native of Xijingzhuang with no roots. He didn't know how he met Chongxuansheng. He followed him into the secret realm of Tianfu, and was later promoted to participate in Qiyang. On the battlefield, this is when I took root in Daqi. The problem is, since he has no roots and no foundation, how come I have buried three groups of people in his foundation?"

"Then what did you find out?" Jiang Wuqi still looked intently.

Seeing that Jiang Wuqi was still not very interested, Lei Zhanqian was not that enthusiastic anymore, "I only know that there is a man named Zhang Linchuan in Zhuang State, who is the Bone Messenger of the White Bone Way. It is a cult that cannot be named."

Jiang Wuqi's heart moved.

Unlike Lei Zhanqian, with his authority, he was able to review the military details of the Battle of Qi Yang. Of course, he had carefully reviewed the only battle to destroy the country in recent years. He remembered clearly that at that time On the battlefield in Qiyang, a white-bone evil god appeared. He was chopped into pieces by Chu Liang, the fierce butcher of Zhongxuan, and then escaped.

The Bone Evil God, Jiang Wang, both appeared in Zhuang State and also in Yang Di. There seems to be some kind of relationship between the two.

But he didn't plan to tell Lei Zhangan about this news, lest his cousin use the topic to make trouble.

Lei Zhanqian suddenly said again: "Do you think Jiang Wang was born in a cult? Did he come to Daqi for some other reason?"

The more he talked, the more excited he became: "Maybe he used some evil method to overdraw his potential, so he could enter the country so quickly!"

Jiang Wuqi sighed softly in his heart. What kind of person was Lei Zhanqian in the past? He had high hopes since childhood and was regarded as the hope for the rise of the Lei family. He was a genius that had not been seen in the Lei family for thousands of years. On the day when Lei Zhanqian's magical power was removed, Lei Zhanqian The whole clan is in a state of excitement.

"A seal seals heaven and earth, and I am the Lord of Thunder and Lightning." What a terrifying potential it is? To carry out punishments on behalf of Heaven, to wield thunder and lightning.

There was a slight failure in the Secret Realm of Seven-Star Tower, but he had already obtained the harvest he deserved. There was a smooth road ahead, so he just had to keep moving forward.

But after the battle with Jiang Wang, his monopoly on the world was shattered, and he has not been able to recover to this day...

It can be seen from the fact that he is still looking for excuses. He cannot accept that failure at all.

He watched helplessly as a rising star who was at his disposal surpassed him in a very short period of time and easily defeated him in front of thousands of people.

This was a heavy blow to him who was extremely conceited.

But this matter cannot be revealed, and we can only wait for Lei Zhanqian to figure it out on his own. If he rushes to untie his scar, it is likely that he will be devastated.

"How could the Chongxuan family be contaminated by a cult? How could Chongxuan Sheng be an idiot?" Jiang Wuqi shook his head and said: "If Jiang Wang is really from a cult, there is no need to wait for you to find out. Will Marquis Dingyuan be soft-hearted? Will Bowang Hou be soft-hearted?"

This truth couldn't be simpler, and Lei Zhanqian could naturally figure it out.

"Same." He sighed.

Jiang Wuqi thought for a while, looked away from the book, and said earnestly: "For things like cultivation, there are firsts and lasts, fast and slow. The current progress can't mean anything. In the end, it all depends on who stands taller. .Cousin, your "Nine Heavens Thunder Art" is so wonderful and unfathomable that it has been cultivated to the end, "Use thunder elephants to replace celestial phenomena, use thunder methods to perform all kinds of magic." How magnificent is it? A person lying high in the Nine Heavens can only take a look at the earthly world once in a while. Well, why should we stick to temporary success or failure?"

Lei Zhanqian was silent for a while, but after all he was unwilling to continue this topic, so he turned to say: "In the case of Elder Diao Hailou, if you don't just suppress him, what else are you doing to protect him? He has bad intentions and wants to use me to become famous. , my Lei Xi was almost melted by him."

There were actually different voices within Qi State regarding Jiang Wang's counterattack to kill Haizongming.

Some people think that there is no need to argue too hard with Diao Hailou over one Jiang Wang. Of course, this voice is very weak. If everyone is united, they will not bow to Diao Hailou, let alone lose their own talents.

However, Jiang Wuqi clearly supported Jiang Wang at the time and believed that Jiang Wang's killing of Haizong Ming was completely justified. There was no intention to undermine Qi's offshore layout.

Jiang Wuqi knew that his support did not play a key role. The entire Da Qi court generally did not think this was a problem. Lei Zhanqian himself also knew this. But he still used it to talk about it, which was nothing more than depression in his heart. It’s hard to explain, so I’ll just find an excuse.

Even though he understood all this, Jiang Wuqi still responded seriously: "He is my great talent. Of course I have to protect him."

Lei Zhanqian curled his lips: "He is not from Qi."

Jiang Wuqi closed the book and his expression became very serious: "Don't say this again. He lives in the same house, receives the same salary, holds the same position, is loyal to the Qi, and fights for the Qi. Why is he not a Qi person?"

He was obviously a little angry: "It is not the people of Qi who are born in the land of Qi. Make the world so big and the world as wide as the world, starting from sunrise and ending with sunset, and the hearts of Qi are Qi people. Make the ancestors of Da Qi like this Cousin, you are so short-sighted, Qi State is still a fishing village by the sea!"

It doesn't matter whether Lei Zhanqian is resentful or dissatisfied, who he complains to, or who he judges. Jiang Wuqi can just listen to it. This is the natural closeness between cousins.

But if he says something that is too out of bounds and does something that shakes the Da Qi community, then Jiang Wuqi will not tolerate it. This is an honor that must be maintained as a descendant of the Da Qi royal family.

No matter how arrogant Lei Zhanqian is, he still knows his priorities. He is a cousin and a minister.

Seeing that Jiang Wuqi was really angry, he immediately compromised: "I'll just stop talking about it from now on."

But then he added: "During the period after Jiang Wang returned to Linzi, he visited Jiang Wuxie and Jiang Wuyou successively, but never visited you again? No matter how fair you treat him, he will not treat you the same. Even in the future ...It may very well become a stumbling block for you!”

Jiang Wuqi coughed a few times, pressed his hand on the book, and stood up: "He doesn't need to face me."

He hugged his fox fur tightly, as if he was embarrassed by the spring cold.

Slowly walking towards the warm place outside the palace, he said quietly: "Towards Daqi, you are towards me."

Lei Zhanqian was still sitting on the chair, looking at Jiang Wuqi's slim back that could not be concealed by the fox fur, and felt extremely confident and certain.

The pace was slow, but every step was like stepping on his own country.

He thought: The future Qi State must belong to this person, and there is no second choice.
