The lights in Xianhe City were brightly lit, the Long family army was celebrating their victory, and the laughter could be heard far away.
Ji Zhang stood on the top of a tree outside the city, watching the excitement in the city.
After thinking about it carefully, Ji Zhang's figure flashed towards Xianhe City.
After crossing the city wall, Ji Zhang carefully bypassed the various outposts and hidden sentries, and arrived at the courtyard where Long Chen was. .??.
Other places were heavily defended, but Long Chen's courtyard had no guards.
Ji Zhang understood that Long Chen had the highest level of cultivation. If someone came towards Long Chen, any guard would be useless, so he might as well not guard him at all.
Slowly walking into the courtyard, there was only one room with the light on, the door was wide open, and Long Chen was reading a map under the light.
Ji Zhang slowly walked into the room, the chair opposite the table slowly moved away, and Ji Zhang slowly sat down.
Long Chen put down the map and looked up at Ji Zhang who was wearing a ghost mask.
"Your Excellency came to visit late at night and I don't know why?"
Long Chen poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Ji Zhang.
When Ji Zhang landed next to the courtyard, Long Chen had already felt it.
Ji Zhang raised his hand in salute and said, "Ji Zhang, I have met King Wu."
Long Chen was stunned for a moment, with confusion in his eyes, and asked: "Ji Zhang?"
Ji Zhang chuckled and said, "I'm sorry."
After speaking, Ji Zhang took off the mask on his face, revealing a face full of wrinkles.
Looking at this face, Long Chen frowned slightly and asked: "Are you the king of Qilan Kingdom and the president of the Tianxiahui?"
Ji Zhang chuckled and said, "I'm sorry, it's me."
Sure enough, it was this Ji Zhang.
When Long Chen heard the name Ji Zhang, he immediately thought of it.
I just can't believe it because Ji Zhang has been dead for almost twenty years.
Ji Xianxian said personally that he was dead.
When Long Chen destroyed the Tianxiahui, Ji Zhang didn't show up either.
Therefore, Long Chen also believed that Ji Zhang was dead.
But now, he appeared in front of him again, which made Long Chen feel very strange.
"you."
< br> Long Chen was thinking about how to call Ji Zhang, king? President? Or father-in-law?
"What on earth did the president do?"
In the end, Long Chen felt that it was more appropriate to call him the president.
Ji Zhang chuckled and said, "Quanzi has a problem with King Wu, so I apologize for Quanzi."
The world will be destroyed, Ji Ba will be beaten into a stick, and Ji Zhang will come to apologize?
"Apologise? President, you are joking. Do you think I am not harsh enough?"
Long Chen laughed dryly. This Ji Zhang was out of touch and he couldn't understand what he meant. Long Chen was wary.
Ji Zhang smiled and said: "King Wu, don't get me wrong, the world will be my labor of love. It is indeed a pity to be destroyed by King Wu."
"Quan Zi was seriously injured by King Wu and is still in a coma. I am also heartbroken."
"However, I don't blame King Wu for all this. Quanzi always opposed King Wu and was defeated by King Wu. That's because his skills are inferior to others. I have no complaints."
Long Chen nodded slightly and said, "So, what do you want from the president's visit tonight?"
The prerequisite for letting go of grudges with a smile is to have new interests.
This new benefit is big enough to cover up the old hatred.
Otherwise, it would be nonsense to laugh away grudges.
Enmity once made will last forever. Hatred cannot disappear unless there are benefits.
"King Wu speaks quickly, so I won't go around in circles."
Ji Zhang picked up the tea on the table with a smile and drank it all in one gulp.
Ji Zhang drank all the tea given by Long Chen. This was a gesture to express his trust in Long Chen and not worry about the poison in the tea.
The cup was placed on the table. Long Chen glanced at it and drank all the tea.
"President, please speak."
Long Chen poured another cup of tea for Ji Zhang.
Ji Zhang said: "I have two requests from King Wu. The first one is to restore the country.
Well, we already have 300,000 soldiers and horses in Zhenna City, I want to ask King Wu to give us more space in Qielan Kingdom."
Long Chen's eyes moved slightly and asked: "How many do you want?"
Ji Zhang said: "One third of Nanliang."
One-third of Nanliang is equivalent to ceding the entire southwestern part of Nanliang.
"no!"
Long Chen vetoed it outright. The matter of ceding land was absolutely not allowed!
Ji Zhang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Long Chen to refuse so simply.
Ji Zhang chuckled and said, "If King Wu feels that one third is too much, we can use less."
Ji Zhang thought that Long Chen thought he wanted too much.
Long Chen said coldly: "The land is not negotiable, I won't give you even half of the land!"
Since ancient times, the Mingjuns and Holy Lords who opened up territories and ceded lands have all been nailed to the pillar of historical shame.
When Long Chen became the emperor, he must have been the Emperor Wu who expanded the territory. How could he cede the land of Nanliang to Qielan Kingdom?
Ji Zhang's wrinkled and gray face showed no expression, but his eyes showed that he was very embarrassed.
Long Chen kept his words to death, but actually refused to give in an inch of ground.
"King Wu, we in Qielan Kingdom also contributed a lot to the uprising in the southwest."
"Even if we are your ministers, we should break the ground and seal the throne. Isn't it too much for you to hold on to nothing now?"
Ji Zhang's tone was displeased. He was also the leader of a country, the former president of the Tianxia Association, and the uncrowned king.
Long Chen's style was too domineering, and Ji Zhang was a little angry.
Long Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Crack the earth and seal it? You are right, those are the emperor's ministers. Are you willing to bow to me?"
Ji Zhang remained silent.
He is the king of a country, how could he surrender to Long Chen?
"We have 300,000 troops in Zhennan City. Does King Wu want us to return empty-handed?"
Ji Zhang's eyes were cold. He originally thought that Long Chen would look at Ji Zhang's eyes. I agreed for the sake of immortals, but I didn't expect the tone to be so harsh.
Long Chen said: "The Immortal is revolting in the south, and I have a hand in this matter. I promise to restore her country afterwards."
"This is the condition we agreed upon at the beginning. The cession of Nanliang's territory is not part of the agreement."
When he was in Wangqing Pavilion, Long Chen only promised Ji Xianxian to restore the country and never said that he would cede the territory of Nanliang.
Ji Zhang was silent for a long time and said, "Then the first thing has not been agreed upon."
Long Chen nodded slightly and said, "There's no need to talk about the first thing, let's talk about the second one."
Ji Zhang said: "The second thing, King Wu also saw, what happened to my face."
Long Chen nodded slightly and said, "How did the president find the ghost clan?"
Ji Zhang's appearance is obviously half-ghost, but not as good as half-ghost. It feels a bit like a copycat version.
Ji Zhang sighed helplessly and said, "This matter started twenty years ago."
Ji Zhang recounted his own experience, how he got terminally ill, how he discovered the ghost clan, and how he became like this.
What he said was the same as what he said to Ji Xianxian.
Ji Zhang knew that the female eldest daughter had no choice but to have a good relationship with Long Chen, so the two of them might confront each other.
Therefore, Ji Zhang said the same thing on both sides.
This is also the reason why Ji Zhang has reservations about Ji Xianxian.
"The flesh of the ghosts saved me, but also made me neither human nor ghost, unable to see people."
"I would like to ask King Wu, if you find a cure, give me a copy so that I can become a human again."
"After the restoration of the country, I cannot see my people like this."
Ji Zhang made his second request.
This thing is true, Ji Zhang really wants to change back to himself.
Now that he is neither a human nor a ghost, he cannot see anyone and wears a mask every day.
Although Long Chen and the others have become half-ghosts, their appearance has not changed and they look like normal people.
