Chapter 569 569 Too stupid, leaning towards the emperor
Chapter 569 569 is too stupid and prefers the emperor
That's right, Xiao Jiuan didn't really bring Ji Yunkai to Blackstone Mountain in the middle of the night to find out the whereabouts of the Demon Cult.
For so many years, so many people have not found the exact location of the Demon Sect. How could he and Ji Yunkai find the headquarters of the Demon Sect as soon as they arrived.
He came and brought with him Ji Yunkai, who was obviously incompetent and a burden, in order to attract the people from the Demon Cult to come out, to alert them and make them show up on their own initiative.
Of course, he wasn't completely sure, and their trip was just a matter of luck. Unexpectedly, they actually surprised people.
The status of the Seven Sons of the Demon Cult is not high in the Demon Cult, but they are much more useful than the ordinary cult members. Moreover, these seven people have a grudge against Li Yuan to exterminate the family. He can lure these seven people out and force them to appear in the town.
It can be described as an unexpected gain.
"I'm afraid Li Yuan will be very happy." Ji Yun drove away unhappily, strolling leisurely as if taking a walk. Xiao Jiuan wanted to hug her and walk away, but the moment he was about to speak, he suddenly felt that the two of them were just like this
It's good to walk slowly.
He has been very busy and rarely has such a leisurely time. Today, he even had half a day of leisure.
Although, he was free today and couldn't sleep at night.
"Li Yuan is a passionate person." Xiao Jiu'an said something irrelevant, but Ji Yunkai understood immediately after hearing it that Xiao Jiu'an plotted against Li Yuan because of her.
Li Yuan values love. The late emperor used kindness to bind Li Yuan for twenty years. Now they are also kind to Li Yuan. Li Yuan's character will definitely repay the kindness, and with Li Yuan by his side, she is safe.
Li Yuan is really pitiful.
"As expected, people cannot have weaknesses." Ji Yunkai shook his head, looking a little depressed.
The reason why Li Yuan ended up in this situation is completely related to his character. If he was not so affectionate, if he was not so righteous, maybe the late emperor would not plot against Li Yuan, and the Li family would not be wiped out.
People who are too upright and kind are always prone to plotting and being plotted by others.
"He is too weak and too flamboyant." Although being successful and flamboyant is not the reason for others to plot against you, when has this world ever been reasonable?
Principles can only be put in books, and can only be used to demand oneself, but not others.
Just because you are kind to others does not mean that others must be kind in return. The true truth is that people's hearts are evil.
"Even if there is no late emperor, there will be someone else." With such a talent like Li Yuan, even he would be tempted, let alone others.
Ji Yunkai remained silent for a moment, then whispered: "I understand."
She understood what Xiao Jiuan meant and also understood Xiao Jiuan's worries.
She was too tolerant before, but now she is a bit flamboyant. If she doesn't want to become the second Li Yuan, she must learn to hide her edge and not expose her trump card easily.
Xiao Jiu'an did mean to remind Ji Yunkai, but seeing Ji Yunkai's heavy face and being unable to bear it, he couldn't help but touch her head: "Don't think too much, I have everything under my control."
As long as he is here, he can protect Ji Yunkai for a whole day. No matter who the opponent is, he cannot hurt Ji Yunkai in the slightest.
Ji Yunkai just needs to do what she wants to do.
Ji Yunkai was startled for a moment, but did not move away, letting Xiao Jiuan put his hand on top of her head...
The two of them walked not fast but not too slowly. When it was getting dark, the two of them walked to the bottom of the mountain. This time, Xiao Jiuan did not hesitate anymore. He hugged Ji Yunkai by the waist and took her up and down the mountain.
After walking for a day and a night, not to mention Ji Yunkai, even he was a little tired.
The two of them had been missing for a day and a night. Although Li Yuan and Fei Xiaochai were not worried about their safety, they were relieved to see the two of them appear.
Li Yuan used to be calm and reserved, but now he doesn't like to talk much. When he saw Xiao Jiuan and Ji Yunkai came back safely, he nodded and went back to the room without asking a word.
Fei Xiaochai asked a lot of questions, but Xiao Jiuan had no intention of answering. Ji Yunkai wanted to answer, but she was so tired and sleepy that she really didn't have the energy to talk to the energetic Fei Xiaochai.
"We'll talk after I wake up." With these words, Ji Yunkai went back to his room to wash up, eat, and then go to sleep.
Ji Yunkai slept very deeply and didn't wake up until noon the next day. Xiao Jiuan was no longer in the room long ago, and there was no trace of anyone sleeping around him. It didn't take much to think about it. Xiao Jiuan was afraid that he would be there again last night.
Didn't sleep all night.
I have to say that success is not accidental. Everyone who stands at the pinnacle of power has paid a price that is unimaginable to ordinary people, such as Xiao Jiuan.
He could survive three days and two nights without rest, but Ji Yunkai would not be able to.
After Ji Yunkai had freshened up, he was about to ask the waiter to deliver dinner to the room when Fei Xiaochai came to him and said that Xiao Jiuan and Li Yuan were waiting for her to have dinner in the flower hall.
Obviously, there is something to be said.
Xiao Jiuan and his party lived in an independent courtyard behind the inn. Except for the waiter and the shopkeeper, no outsiders could enter, so it was relatively safe to talk in the house.
In the flower hall, a table full of food was placed, but Xiao Jiuan and Li Yuan did not move. They sat quietly at the dining table. Li Yuan looked preoccupied, while Xiao Jiuan closed his eyes to rest.
He didn't rest for three days and two nights. Although he could survive, he was still a little tired.
As soon as Ji Yunkai came in, he saw the dark shadow under his eyes and couldn't help but sigh.
This world is not easy for everyone.
"Master Jiu." Ji Yun came in, said this and sat down next to Xiao Jiu'an.
"Let's have a meal." Xiao Jiu'an said and took the lead in picking up the bowls and chopsticks.
Perhaps the atmosphere was too heavy and no one spoke at the dinner table. Even Fei Xiaochai, who was always out of his mind, ate obediently today without daring to say a word.
The four of them finished their dinner quickly, and Fei Xiaochai volunteered to clear away the dishes so that Xiao Jiuan, Ji Yunkai and Li Yuan could talk.
The three of them did not avoid Fei Xiaochai, and sat in the flower hall talking about what happened in the past two days.
"Your Majesty, the evil doctor Ming Kuang has been taken down and locked up in the basement of my room." Li Yuan has always been calm, but when it came to the Demon Cult, he really couldn't be calm. As soon as he sat down, he couldn't help but speak first.
.
This inn is run by Mo Qixi's people, so naturally it cannot be like an ordinary inn. It is normal to have a basement.
"Keep an eye on him, don't let him escape." The evil doctor Ming Kuang couldn't come back, and the seven demon sect members couldn't help but come looking for him.
At that time, the person is in their hands, whether they want revenge or what they want to do, it will be up to them.
"Your Majesty, can I ask why?" As soon as Xiao Jiuan came back last night, he asked him to find the evil doctor Ming Kuang and control him.
This is different from their original plan. They originally planned to follow the evil doctor Ming Kuang into the Demon Cult. Now that they have captured the people, it is probably impossible for them to follow the evil doctor Ming Kuang into the Demon Cult.
"I injured the Seventh Son of the Demon Sect. Without the evil doctor Ming Kuang, the Seventh Son of the Demon Sect would come looking for me." When he came back last night, Xiao Jiuan did not tell Li Yuan where he and Ji Yunkai had gone.
Similarly, he did not tell Li Yuan where he went last night and today.
There are some things that he cannot tell Li Yuan yet. After all, Li Yuan still favors the emperor. Before he is absolutely sure, he will not expose all his trump cards easily. That would be too stupid... (To be continued)
