In the garden pavilion of Xia Mansion, Xia Shang was sitting and making a new cup of tea for Ji Zi.
Ji Zi was indifferent, not feeling worried or happy, and nodded.
"Where's Lingsi? Why can't he see anyone?" Xia Shang looked around, a little confused as to why this person wasn't following Jizi.
"As soon as I got better, I couldn't control myself anymore. I went out by myself, saying I wanted to see what was happening outside."
Xia Shang was not surprised by this: "Then did Ling Si bring back any news?"
"I just saw many officers and soldiers searching the capital in recent days, but I don't know why."
"It has something to do with the "General Outline of the Heavenly Book"."
Xia Shang's straightforward words surprised Ji Zi.
Seeing Ji Zi's somewhat stunned expression, Xia Shang smiled: "Don't be so careful. With Zero Four's ability, you won't only be able to investigate such superficial things. At least you should know that there is something to do with the Book of Heaven behind it."
Yoshiko was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to explain it.
"You should know what the real purpose of the Japanese mission to Dahua is, right?"
Yoshiko shook his head first, then nodded, thought for a while, and replied: "It wasn't clear at first, but it became clear later."
"The Heavenly Book is not just something that the Japanese covet. There is no one in Dahua who doesn't want to get the Heavenly Book. You should also understand that there is already chaos within Dahua alone to fight for the Heavenly Book. Now that the Japanese are involved, the situation will become more complicated.
.And I will never let the Book of Heaven fall into the hands of Japanese people under any circumstances."
"..."
"This is indeed a bit rude, but I just said it in front of you. I have a feeling that because of the Heavenly Book, it may lead to some more complicated situations..." Xia Shang took a deep breath and lowered his head.
"Do you think your father, the legendary Donghuang, would come to Dahua in person regardless of his status?"
"Ah?" Yoshiko was shocked, "How is that possible?!"
Xia Shang held the tea and fell into deep thought.
Regarding what he said, Xia Shang also felt that there was not much possibility.
But just because it's unlikely doesn't mean it's impossible.
Judging from Ling Yi's current situation, it is obvious that he would not be able to deliver the goods if he returned with only an incomplete outline of the Heavenly Book.
But now all the forces in the capital know that the general outline of the Heavenly Book has been lost.
If there is news of the loss, everyone will stare closely at the outline of the Book of Heaven.
At this time, it would be even more difficult for Zero One to leave with all the outlines of the Heavenly Book intact.
Moreover, Xia Shang did not believe that the missing fragments of the queen's pieces were the work of Ling Yi.
Since it is difficult for Zero One to go back with the general outline of the Heavenly Book, will the Donghuang of Japan take further actions?
And Ling Yi is already the most powerful person under Donghuang in the entire Japanese kingdom. Since Lingyi has not completed his mission, will the next person in Dahua be Donghuang himself?
Moreover, the Heavenly Book is not only the general outline of the Heavenly Book, but also has seven other volumes. Only by collecting all eight volumes of the Heavenly Book can one achieve the legendary unification of the divine realm.
Donghuang should be another emperor. Like Emperor Dahua, what the other emperor pursues is to become a god.
The Book of Heaven is the only currently known key to becoming a god.
I believe Donghuang will not remain indifferent.
If Donghuang comes to Dahua, I'm afraid there won't be anyone in Dahua who can fight against Donghuang.
Maybe it will trigger another brutal battle like the one on Xiantao Mountain.
The most important thing is that Xia Shang holds four volumes of heavenly books in his hands.
If Donghuang wants to find the Book of Heaven, direct conflict will inevitably break out between Donghuang and Xia Shang.
At that time, Xia Shang really didn't have the confidence to deal with it.
Although the above idea is a far-fetched story, Xia Shang will eventually feel a little uneasy after seeing Ji Zi.
Jizi is the key to unlocking all this. Perhaps when Donghuang comes to Dahua, only Jizi can control the threat that is close to the demigod.
Xia Shang thought for a while and said: "Nothing is impossible. Judging from the current situation, the mission of Donghuang to send a mission to Dahua is a complete failure. The Heavenly Book was not brought back, but his daughter disappeared.
The one given to the prince was an impostor, and no matter how you look at it, the result is very bad.
In such a great environment, Dahua is searching for the Heavenly Book everywhere, and the news is spreading to the Japanese country, can your father really endure it and not take action?"
"My father's actions are always unpredictable, and I don't know either."
"If one day your father comes to Dahua, I hope you can be on my side..."
"Huh?" Yoshiko was stunned after hearing this. These words were a bit strange and a bit ambiguous.
"Well...of course, I don't want you to go against your father. Remember last time
Xuzhou, you burned the spell and saw the shadow of your father in the flames. Judging from this skill, your father should be an extremely powerful person.
When he arrives in Dahua, I'm worried that no one in Dahua can match him. In order to avoid the destruction of Dahua, I hope you can organize your father to do some excessive things."
"You don't need to tell me about this. Of course I won't watch my father massacre people in Dahua, but... I don't know if I can dissuade..."
"It's okay, as long as you are willing to persuade."
"Is this why you met me alone today to talk about this?"
Xia Shang paused: "Of course, there are other things, such as Ling Yi. He has disappeared for a while, and he is currently looking for the Book of Heaven. I want to get some news about him. I didn't know you..."
"Reiyi..." Yoshiko frowned, "I really don't know much about this person. I only know that one of my father's subordinates is the number one Reiyi. I don't even know that Reiyi and Reiji are twins.
Brother, maybe Ling Si will know more, what about waiting for Ling Si to come back, are you asking him?"
"Why don't you ask for me?"
"..."
"You know, Lingsi will not hide anything from you, but it is different from me. Moreover, this matter will be detrimental to you Japanese people after all, and I don't know if he will tell me."
Yoshiko was a little hesitant. She felt that her behavior was really against her country, but the person who came to ask was her savior.
After thinking about it, Yoshiko nodded: "Okay, come see me again after tomorrow and I will tell you the news."
"Thanks."
With a simple sentence, Xia Shang stood up, turned around and left.
As time passed, Xia Shang felt a little more guilty.
This is obviously taking advantage of others, and it is taking advantage of a woman's feelings for herself.
This kind of behavior is really shameful.
But the matter involved a wide range of things and was very serious. Apart from using Ji Zi, Xia Shang could not find any other more effective way. Therefore, he could only go against his own heart and pretend to know nothing.
Xia Shang left the garden and returned to the courtyard, when he happened to see someone coming to the door.
It's Hou Jun.
Xia Shang hurriedly walked up and called away the servant who was talking to Hou Jun.
Then he walked up to Hou Jun and asked: "Commander Hou, why are you here again?"
