Volume 1: The Storm in the Western Region Chapter 116: The Truth Twenty Years Ago [Part 1]
A compact room in the middle of the top floor of Chunhua Building.
There is only a huge table and four chairs in this room. Other than that, there is nothing else. Even the walls are made of fine iron, giving people a cold feeling.
Aziz and Haidiya sat inside, while Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong sat with their backs to the door. There were only four of them in the whole room. On the table in front of them, there was a letter written by Amani, the eldest princess of Lanmo Kingdom.
letter.
Three pieces of letter paper were spread flatly on the table, and the contents inside had just been understood clearly with the help of Haidiya's mica mirror.
The four people sat facing each other, all quiet, no one spoke.
Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong were quiet, waiting for Haidiye and Aziz to explain.
Khadiya and Aziz were quiet, but they may not have thought of how to explain it yet.
The air in the secret room could not circulate, and gradually, the feeling of heaviness became stronger. Yuan Mingkong didn't feel anything, but Zhao Rang was used to being loose and free. After sitting for a while, he felt uncomfortable and kept adjusting his posture. Sometimes he moved his arms.
Put it on the table, or lean on the back of a chair and look at the roof in a daze.
After an unknown amount of time, Heidiye coughed slightly, finally breaking the silence in the room.
Zhao Rang also came back to his senses and looked at his lips intently.
"We have to start from twenty years ago."
Zhao Rang nodded.
This story must have a long past and extremely complicated implications.
Otherwise, the princess of Lanmo Kingdom would not maintain such close contact with the great nobles of Shanye Kingdom in this way.
They are all the Upper Four Kingdoms. Although they are different in terms of national strength, this term was actually given by the Dawei people. The Upper Four Kingdoms are not as united as the name suggests. Instead, they all maintain a certain degree of restraint against each other.
As the eldest princess of Lan Mo Kingdom, she holds a high position of authority. She should not have personal relations with them except for necessary reasons.
But in his heart, Zhao Rang already understood that they were very familiar with each other and had a good personal relationship, so Haidiye started talking about it twenty years ago. Zhao Rang was not surprised, but thought it was reasonable. If not
After such a long time, it will become abnormal.
But twenty years ago was a very magical time.
You must know that it was also in this year that Haidiya and Aziz fell out.
Sure enough, Haidiya said next:
"That was the year that Aziz and I publicly broke off our relationship and stopped communicating with each other."
Zhao Rang's expression became serious.
What exactly happened that year?
He has determined that the breakup of relations between Heidiye and Aziz was an act, for outsiders to see. What happened to these two people that made them have to be like this?
Regardless of the identity of the Lord of the Black Street of Aziz, Haidiya’s strength and his own martial arts training are well-known throughout the Western Region. He also has a noble status. It is said that when Shanye Kingdom was founded, Haidiya
His ancestors have made great efforts and can be said to be full of loyalty. Such efforts have certainly been rewarded. The founder of the Lanmo Kingdom once made an oath with the ancestors of Haidiya in the royal city in front of the three armies, promising to
Never give up.
To this day, although Haidiya no longer has a position in the court, he is still one of the top nobles in the Shanye Kingdom due to his ancestral reputation and accumulation. The current head of the country, according to backup, still has to call him Third Uncle.
If placed in a powerful position, it would be enough to enjoy the status of half of the emperor.
But even so, there are still things that he can't deal with and even do secretly. The cause and effect are so intriguing!
"That year was originally very good."
"very good……"
Haidiya's tone was full of emotion, and his eyes were full of nostalgia.
Aziz took over the conversation and said:
"That year, Heidiye and I both made great achievements in martial arts. Within a month, we successively entered the fourth-level minor master realm. He used the sword and I practiced boxing. Although they were different, we spent every day together to explore the ultimate martial arts.
Li. That year, Khaidiye's horse farm became famous in the Western Regions and was purchased by royal families and nobles from all over the world. As a result, the price soared and it was called the 'Golden Horse'. That year, one of my distant cousins passed away.
The old man has never been married and has no children. The closest relative is me. He is considered a nobleman, so I will inherit all the inheritance. Then I used the money to build the Chunhua Building on the Black Street.
"
Aziz's words ended abruptly.
These three things are all great events.
The two of them not only made great progress in their own cultivation, but also flourished in their careers! It was at that time that Sunset Racecourse and Black Street, which would become world-famous in the future, came into being.
When Zhao Rang listened, he couldn't help but feel in a trance, as if there was a confusion of time, and he could no longer tell whether it was twenty years later or twenty years ago.
Looking at the current appearance of the two of them, both Khadiya and Aziz have gray hair on their temples. After twenty years, they are no longer like teenagers... No matter how much they miss them, they can't go back.
"That year, there should be more than just these things happening, right?"
Zhao Rang asked rhetorically.
If they didn't continue the conversation, they didn't know how long they would have to remember and sigh with emotion. Zhao Rang didn't have time to listen to them recalling the past scenery.
"Yes, you are right."
Haidiya took over the conversation again.
"In that year, there was suddenly a new force in the Western Region, calling itself a divine sect, named Ruin."
Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong both felt nervous.
I thought this force should be some ancient inheritance from the Western Region, but I didn’t expect that it was only born more than 20 years ago. Of course, Aziz and Haidiya learned about it at this time. Perhaps the history of the divine religion is even older, but it has not been revealed.
, it’s just unknown.
"No, I am very sure that this force is definitely only more than 20 years old, and it is definitely not an ancient inheritance!"
Haidiya used two absolutes in a row, and his tone was extremely firm.
Zhao Rang did not argue and waited for him to continue.
"The reason why I am so sure is because the leader of the divine religion was introduced to the king by me at the beginning..."
His voice became lower and lower, and the last few words were as inaudible as the buzzing of mosquitoes.
Yuan Mingkong asked:
"The leader of Shan Ye Kingdom?"
Haidiya nodded.
"At that time, for some unknown reason, the king suddenly became mentally depressed. He used to eat at least one leg of lamb every day, but in those days he couldn't even drink refreshing yogurt. Within half a month, he became so skinny that he couldn't even ride a horse.
!”
"The leader of the divine sect, who claimed to be a miracle doctor at the time, said that he had thousands of secret recipes and that there was no disease that could not be cured. Of course I didn't believe it at first, but later he did cure the illnesses of several nobles and ministers.
He was old and sick, and he became more and more popular. By chance, I got to know him at a drinking party, and later on, with the strong recommendation of several other nobles, I took him to the palace to treat the king's illness. "
Zhao Rang sneered:
"Then he must be cured."
Thinking of the terrifying "Tongtian Pill" in Hong Jiang's hand, it can not only restore the spirit of the leader of Shanye Kingdom, but also make him be controlled by others from now on! I just don't know if the Ruined God Sect had a "Tongtian Pill" twenty years ago.
However, even if not, as long as he can cure the disease of the country's leader, he will be able to get wind and rain in Shanye Kingdom from now on. After all, life-saving grace is equally important to everyone, even the leader of a country.
People in high positions are more afraid of death.
They are reluctant to part with the rights they already have and are accustomed to.
"Five days, just five days!"
Haidiya extended a hand and gestured.
"Five days later, the king suddenly summoned me. In the palace hall, I saw that the king was radiant and energetic, as if he had recovered. Then the king first said that I had made a meritorious recommendation and rewarded me with three carts of gold, and then said to this miracle doctor and leader
, praised him greatly and made him a national master on the spot."
"Oh, he is your powerful prime minister."
There is no position of National Preceptor in Dawei.
In addition to advising on the management of the country, the national advisers in the Western Regions are also responsible for observing the sky, supervising the national destiny, performing sacrifices and worshiping, etc. It can be said that the power and status of one person under one person or over ten thousand people is much higher than that of the prime minister.
There are some kings in the Western Regions who have such great trust in their advisers that it is almost like giving away the throne, and they only bear the name of the king.
Zhao Rang said calmly:
"Although such a reward for curing the emperor's terminal illness is a bit exaggerated, it is understandable since the emperor has just recovered from a serious illness and is in high spirits."
Haidiya sighed and said:
"Who says otherwise! I also thought that the head of the country was just in a moment of excitement. Once the imperial master was appointed, he would be granted the title and he would be able to enjoy the enshrinement of others. As long as he did not appoint any real power, it would be fine. After all, this person's background is not clear. How could he come up?
To run such a big one-night kingdom?"
Hearing this, Zhao Rang suddenly interrupted and asked:
"Is he from the Western Regions?"
Haidiya shook his head simply and said:
"have no idea."
Zhao Rang asked again in confusion:
"I don't know? Can't you tell?"
Khadiya replied:
"There are people from Dawei who look like people from the Western Regions, and there are people from the Western Regions who look like people from Dawei. And he looks like both."
"What about your accent?"
Zhao Rang broke the casserole and asked what happened.
"Can't hear it."
Haidiya still didn't know anything about it.
"I can speak Western Regions without any problem, but I just don't know where the accent comes from. I've been to many countries in the Western Regions, but unfortunately I didn't recognize it."
Aziz also said on the side:
"I also looked for many people in the underworld to identify him, but in the end there was no result. His Western dialect seems to exist independently, and we can understand it, but no one knows where the accent is."
Zhao Rang was a little disappointed.
After all, they don't even know where this leader is from. Fortunately, Haidiya and Aziz have at least met a real person and know what he looks like.
"You go on, I won't interrupt you!"
Haidiya took a deep breath and then said:
"After the king's spirit recovered, the surrounding small countries and the other three of the upper four kingdoms all sent people to congratulate him. The person from Lanmo Kingdom is none other than the eldest princess Amani."
"Amani and I didn't know each other before, but the nobles of the Western Regions knew each other. As soon as the Lan Mo Kingdom's envoy arrived, Amani sneaked out of the inn where he was staying and came to Chunhua on the black street alone.
building."
Aziz took it naturally and said:
"At that time, I saw a girl who had an extraordinary temperament, but also looked anxious and uneasy. She ordered a large table of wine and food, but only took one or two bites. Instead, she kept looking around. I felt strange, so I stepped forward to ask."
"After revealing that I was the owner of Chunhua Building, the princess asked me where Haidiya was and how she could see him. Obviously he didn't know about my relationship with Haidiya, so I continued to talk calmly, but she was very
I was alert, didn't say anything, and kept asking Haidiya. In the end, I had no choice, so I asked my clerk to deliver a message to Haidiya, and then arranged a private room for her."
When Aziz said this, he licked his lips, then turned around and pressed a hidden amplifier on the wall. Soon a depression appeared on the wall, with a pot of tea and four teacups inside.
While Aziz was pouring tea, Haidiya said:
"I received the message from Aziz at home and hurried to Chunhua Building. Before I could even say a few words after pushing out the box, Amani's words made me feel like I was struck by lightning, and everything in my body went blank.
Already..."
Haidiya picked up the tea cup and drank the hot tea in one gulp. Those words from twenty years ago still make his heart palpitate when he mentions them.
"Amani told me that the current leader of Shanye Kingdom is a fake. The real leader was killed as early as the first time he saw a doctor."
