"You think I would believe it?" Bai Xu said in a deep voice, staring at Cao Mian.
Cao Mian raised his eyebrows and said, "It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not."
Bai Xu was silent and stared at Cao Mian for a long time, then he snorted and looked at Xie Yan, "Prince Regent, you think so too."
Xie Yan said calmly: "My king's purpose has been achieved. It doesn't matter what the manuscript is like."
Bai Xu frowned and said, "I said, there is..."
"Master Bai believes that without the manuscript, I cannot destroy the Qi people."
Bai Xu was silent, naturally he didn't think so. Having seen Xie Yan's methods in the past six months, Bai Xu believed that if nothing unexpected happened, Bai Jingrong would fall into Xie Yan's hands sooner or later. But he was still a little unwilling, even if he didn't
He has the ambition to dominate the world, but as a son, he must avenge his father and get rid of the traitors of the Bai family.
Xie Yan said: "Before returning to the capital, Mr. Bai can try to see if he can get the result from Marquis Wen Ding."
Bai Xu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Xie Yan waved his hand to escort Cao Mian, Cao Ai and Wu Yi down, and then everyone's eyes fell on the two people who were thrown into the corner of the lobby by Qu Fang.
"This is... Snake Princess and who else is there?" Luo Junyao looked carefully at the two motionless people and recognized the identity of the woman among them.
Qu Fang said: "The person in charge of Luanyi Division, as for the young man Mr. Bai just mentioned..."
"What's wrong"
"Dead." Qu Fang said.
They didn't know that the young man had that kind of status. His skills were good but not top-notch, and he accidentally died in the hands of the police. The only ones who survived were the head of Luanyi Division and Snake Princess.
Luo Junyao blinked his eyes and said, "Marquis Wen Ding doesn't seem to care very much, so it shouldn't matter."
Xie Yan smiled faintly and said to Qu Tiange: "She Ji is of no use, just get rid of her. This... ask clearly about the remaining power of Luanyi Division. If you don't tell me, there is no need to keep her."
Qu Tiange nodded, paused and said, "If he dies..."
"Isn't there still Xueya?" Xie Yan said: "With his character, it is impossible that he really has no understanding of the remnants of Luanyi Division. He is just waiting for the opportunity to negotiate bargaining chips with us. Now the opportunity has arrived."
Qu Tiange said: "I understand."
Qu Fang said next to him: "The matter in Wanhu City has come to an end. What is the regent's next plan?"
Xie Yan said: "It's time to return to Beijing."
Qu Fang nodded and stopped talking.
It was indeed time to return to Beijing. In the blink of an eye, it had been more than two months since they left Shangyong, and there were still many things to deal with in the DPRK.
The first one to bear was the national mourning of the Empress Dowager.
"I still don't understand what's going on with Cao Mian," Luo Junyao couldn't help but said after returning to the inn where he was staying.
Xie Yan raised his eyebrows and said, "What don't you understand?"
Luo Junyao said: "He is such a good prince, a high-ranking official in the border area, and is about to be praised as a saint. What is he doing with such a startless rebellion? There is also his relationship with Luan Yisi, and his
Those sons, as well as Wu Yi, don’t understand many things.”
Xie Yan smiled lightly and said: "There's nothing I don't understand. It's just that I'm not satisfied."
Luo Junyao looked at him as if he had some realization.
Xie Yan said: "I don't know much about Cao Mian. If you are curious, you can go back and ask your father-in-law, or people in the court who have friendship with him."
Luo Junyao said: "Except for my father, no one in the court dares to mention Cao Mian now." After being caught for treason, the officials in the court were eager to draw a clear line with him. How could they dare to admit their friendship with him?
Xie Yan said: "In his early years, he was arrogant and pursued perfection. People with high arrogance are always not easy to feel satisfied. This may be his original intention for doing all this."
"For example, the rewards at the founding of the country." Luo Junyao had communicated with Cao Mian several times. Naturally, Luo Junyao also knew that Cao Mian had a high self-esteem and did not look down on a reckless man from the countryside like his father. However, the two of them joined Gaozu at the same time.
Under his command, her father became a famous general who was famous all over the world, and was named the Duke of the country. But he was only a feudal prince, far away from the center of power.
Xie Yan said: "If that's the case, maybe he won't do anything, but he met Bai Xu and got Bai Cu's Panlong Seal."
Luo Jun shook his head. Some things really bring out the dissatisfaction and desire deep in people's hearts.
She was just a little regretful. If these things had not happened, Cao Mian would really have been an almost perfect person. Even if this perfection is a bit watery, if a person can pretend for a lifetime, it is almost true.
"Will Cao Mian tell Bai Xu the whereabouts of the letters?" Luo Junyao asked curiously.
Xie Yan shook his head and said: "No."
"Why"
Xie Yan said: "If he wanted to say it, he would have said it long ago. He would not wait for Bai Xu to think of a solution. Even if he loses everything, he still has to win something, otherwise it will be the same as death to him."
Luo Junyao said: "So, what happened at Yunhai Academy is really that Bai Xu was secretly helping."
Xie Yan said: "Maybe."
"Your Majesty, Princess, Master Lei Sect and Master Yao would like to see you." The guard outside the door reported.
Xie Yan stood up and said: "They should be here to say goodbye, Yaoyao wants to see them."
Luo Junyao also stood up and smiled and said: "It is rare to meet each other, so of course we must meet. After all, Master Yao and Master Lei Sect have also helped us a lot this time." Xie Yan said: "They are not at a loss either."
That is indeed not a loss. Yao Fu got rid of Yan Hengtian, and Furong Villa has dominated Liangzhou ever since. Lei Yunmu killed Ye Li, and got Xie Yan's promise. The trade routes to the Western Regions will definitely be unobstructed in the future.
"Your Majesty, Princess, the matter in Wanhu City is over. Master Lei Clan and I will leave Bingzhou tomorrow, and I came here to say goodbye to you two." Yao Fu was followed by his apprentice and son, but Lei Yunmu was still alone.
Xie Yan nodded and said: "So, I wish you both a safe journey. I, the King of Huangsha Village and Black Wind Castle, have already sent orders to the garrisons in Liangzhou and Suzhou. They will also need the help of Master Yao."
Yao Fu cupped her hands and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. It is Yao Fu's honor that Furong Villa can serve the government. In this case, we will not disturb you two and leave now."
Xie Yan said: "Please."
"Princess, farewell." Yao Fu said to Luo Junyao with a smile, and Luo Junyao also smiled and said: "No, if Master Yao is free, you can come to Shangyong and have fun. I will be your host and I will treat you well."
Yao Fu naturally happily agreed, but they both knew that if they met again in the future, they would not know what year or month it would be.
Luo Junyao naturally has a lot of things to do as the regent princess, and Yao Fu will not be idle.
Nowadays, almost all the great masters in the world have disappeared, and the world has to be reshuffled. Lei Yunmu and Yao Fu are the only few remaining top masters, so naturally they have great potential.
What's more, Jianghu and Chaotang are still too far apart after all.
Meeting is fate, and seeing each other again also depends on fate.
