Chapter 472.
After Jin Ge’s words, Bai Lu fell into silence.
Under the firelight, Jin Ge’s heart gradually felt tormented.
He looked up at Bai Lu and whispered in an almost trembling voice:
“You don’t agree?”
Bai Lu, however, smiled:
“It’s not that …… I’m just wondering, this big brother of yours, what kind of person is he?”
“Big brother, although he is younger than me, but his martial arts skills are world-class, his calculations are nothing short of brilliant, and his skills are amazing ……”
Jin Ge gushed for a moment, and his mood was instantly brightened by the word ‘not’.
Bai Lu listened quietly until Jin Ge caught her eye, which made her smile out.
Jingo stopped his statement as well, scratching his head in some embarrassment:
“The amount of time I’ve been by his side isn’t really a long time, strictly speaking.
“But for such a period of time, to be able to follow by the side of such a powerful person is truly an honor for me.
“Nowadays, although I don’t know what big brother he wants to do, and I don’t know what I can do to help him ……
“But I always feel that if I just walk away this time, I will definitely regret it later.”
Shirou nodded:
“In your eyes, he can do almost anything.
“Then would he have his reasons for letting you leave?”
“This ……”
Jin Ge froze for a moment.
This was not a pointless statement, it was very reasonable.
Since he was calculating, he naturally didn’t like changes to happen.
Should he himself go for that change of heart?
He was silent for a while and said softly:
“You are right …… But, I am still a bit relieved.
“Let’s do it this way, in a moment I will send you out of here, and then I will come back and not go to him ……
“Tomorrow, he should meet with the Qing Emperor.
“At that time, I will secretly go to the roof of the Meeting Sky Building and watch from afar there.
“If there’s any problem, I’ll strike from there, and it won’t be dangerous.”
Bai Lu cocked her head and looked at him, and after carefully considering it, she gently nodded:
“Good.”
“You promise?”
Jin Ge was instantly happy.
However, Bai Lu gently shook her head:
“Didn’t completely agree ……”
“Say, what other conditions are there?”
“Take me with you.”
Bai Lu’s voice was still soft, but resolute:
“If you can’t think of anything, I’m thinking that in your whole life, it’s best if you don’t cross paths with me in the slightest.
“But you came back ……
“Now that your memory has been restored, I no longer want to pretend that nothing has happened …… Even I can’t get past this hurdle of my own.
“I know I’m actually no longer qualified to ask anything of you …… But don’t leave me behind again.
“The crowd is surging, but this world is too big.
“A separation seems to have no relationship, but the south of the sky and the north, the journey to meet again, there will always be a variety of accidents happen, so that we are delayed on the road too much too much time.
“What’s more, we may never meet again.
“The very thought of such a possibility …… frightens me.
“It’s scarier than being thrown into a mansion all full of people from the devil’s cult myself, or, even, scarier than death.
“So …… don’t send me away again.
“Don’t let yourself disappear from my view, okay?”
Jin Ge silently listened to these words, and the luster in his eyes gradually became firm.
He took hold of Bai Lu’s hand:
“Xiao Lu …… wait until after this side of things is over, let’s follow big brother to the Golden Cicada.
“Then ……”
When Jin Ge said this, he gave a slight start, looked up at Bai Lu, and took a deep breath:
“Marry me.”
……
……
Imperial Palace!
Inside the imperial study.
Eunuch De somewhat fearfully placed a cup of ginseng tea on Emperor Qing’s dragon book case.
Emperor Qing, however, did not even look at it.
And on the other side of the dragon book case, there was a person who was kneeling on the ground with his head on the ground.
There was another person that was lying there, unconscious.
The one kneeling was none other than the treasury master.
He had already finished saying so and so, so and so about what had happened this night.
He was waiting for the Qing Emperor’s sentencing.
The Qing Emperor, however, just sat there dumbfounded.
It was only after a long time that the party seemed as if his soul had returned to the attack, he frowned slightly, glanced at the kneeling master-at-arms on the ground, and opened his mouth to say:
“Prisoner Demon Lock, so easily broken by him?”
“Yes.”
“So powerful.”
The Qing Emperor smiled:
“I’ll ask you guys, if this person wants to plot a rebellion and assassinate the king to kill him.
“You guys, can you stop him?”
“……”
The principal was instantly silent.
At the same time there was an answer in his heart …… that he couldn’t block it.
That person, if he wanted to assassinate the king and kill the driver, things would only have one outcome, and that would be a different emperor.
“Why don’t you answer?”
The Qing Emperor’s voice slowly came into his ears, and on the head of the principal, there was a cold sweat.
Just then, he heard the Qing Emperor ask with a smile:
“Is it that you don’t know, or …… don’t dare to answer?”
“I …… minister, I don’t dare to ……”
“In that case, if he wants to kill me, I will only have one way to die.”
The Qing Emperor laughed:
“Simply slippery and ridiculous!
“I am the current Son of Heaven, a man of the rivers and lakes, but I told you to do nothing, then what use do I have for you?”
“I will die!!!”
That principal hurriedly shouted.
“It’s just, whether you live or die, it’s still hard to say, if this person wants to kill me, I am really dying.
“Good thing that this person does not seem to intend to kill me now ……
“Rather, I have to come to thank him for not killing me.”
The corners of his mouth flushed with a teasing color, and he asked with a cold smile on his face:
“Do you know what the origin is?”
The treasury master was quite cautious and did not dare to answer easily.
And right at this moment, Hai Huai Shen, who was lying there, then stood up with a flip, followed by kneeling down obediently:
“For the minister Hai Huaishen, see Your Majesty.”
“Get up.”
The Qing Emperor coldly asked:
“Have you ever known, what is the origin of this group of people?”
“The subordinate …… does not dare to say anything.”
“But there is no harm in saying.”
“Yes. This person performed the Great Brahma Vajra Technique before the treasure vault.”
Hai Huai Shen spoke in a deep voice:
“Therefore, my subordinate thought that this person might be a disciple of the Great Brahma Zen Academy.”
“Not true.”
That principal raised his head at this moment and said:
“Outside the treasure vault, this person did indeed execute the Great Brahma Vajra Skill.
“But in the middle of the treasure vault, he once performed the Heaven’s Will Inverted Undying Divine Skill!
“From this, it can be seen that this person is perhaps a thief from the Left Path Zhuang.”
“So, both of you are unclear as to who you actually lost to tonight?”
The Qing Emperor’s smile grew even colder:
“It seems that even within my palace, you guys don’t have the means to protect my safety.
“Come man.”
“Your Majesty.”
Immediately, someone came to the front.
Emperor Qing closed his eyes and highlighted his breath:
“I’ve heard that recently, there are a lot of people from the jianghu walking around within Seven An Town?”
“Yes.”
“Where are these people now?”
“They are all gathering within the Imperial City.”
The visitor Langsheng said:
“My subordinate has already ordered people to observe carefully, and if there is any movement, they will immediately strike and eliminate them all.”
“Tomorrow …… declare them to enter the palace.”
“Yes, subordinate this is …… ah?”
The visitor looked up in consternation.
“What, still want to let me repeat it again?”
“I don’t dare to …… minister this will go to do.”
“Everything from simple.”
“Yes.”
After promising a sound, to see that the Qing Emperor did not have any other commands, that person only then backwardly left the imperial study.
Only then did Emperor Qing pick up the ginseng tea on the table and took a sip.
After putting it down, he looked towards the two people kneeling on the ground and gently shook his head:
“Do what you need to do, investigate what you need to investigate, and don’t get in my way.”
That treasury master and Hai Huai Shen looked at each other and agreed at the same time, then together they excused themselves.
After leaving the imperial study, the treasury master frowned and glanced at Hai Huai Shen who was already walking unhindered:
“It seems like your injuries aren’t that serious …… When did you wake up?”
“On the way to the imperial study.”
“Then you didn’t get up earlier?”
The treasury master was furious:
“Are you trying to make me take the thunder for you in the front?”
Hai Huaishen hurriedly said:
“Misunderstanding, misunderstanding …… Okay, okay, don’t be angry, don’t be angry, I apologize to you.”
Said hurriedly bowed and bowed to the ground.
That treasury master grunted, also ignored him, is striding forward.
“Wait for me, wait for me ……”
Hai Huaishen hurriedly chased after two steps, but just after running two steps, he was coughing repeatedly, that treasury master looked back at him, and saw that there was blood flowing from the corner of his mouth again, and he was swallowing back hard.
“Is it okay?”
“…… Where is this palm so good to receive, although I did wake up on the way, but fainted again.”
Hai Huai took a deep breath:
“Who the hell is this person?
“He can perform the Da Fan Zen Academy’s Da Fan Vajra Skill, and you said that he can perform the Zuo Dao Zhuang’s Heaven’s Will Inverted Undying Divine Skill.
“Then is he a monk from the Da Fan Zen Academy or a thief and bandit from Zuo Dao Zhuang?
“Listening to his voice, he’s not that old, so how could he have such skillful martial arts?”
Hearing this, that treasury master suddenly looked up at Hai Huaishen:
“I suddenly remembered someone ……”
“Amazing God Sword Jiang Ran?”
Hai Huaishen didn’t wait for him to open his mouth before saying the name.
The two men looked at each other, but they frowned at the same time.
There were some things here that the two couldn’t figure out no matter what.
In the end, it was the Treasure Vault Master who spoke first:
“The Amazing God Sword Jiang Ran’s martial arts is indeed extremely skillful, especially in that battle at the Jin Yang Palace, where a single move to view the sea broke a million armies.
“What’s more, it was heard that shortly after this person first appeared in the jianghu, he had once performed a martial art similar to the Da Brahma Zen Academy’s Da Brahma Vajra Technique ……
“You say, if what this person used was really this martial art, where did he learn it from?
“It is rumored that this person has never been to the Green Country, so how could he steal and learn this divine skill from the Great Brahma Zen Academy?”
“Not only that ……”
Hai Huai Shen spoke in a deep voice:
“That move of his, Viewing the Canghai Sea, is also very famous …… It is rumored that his blade awns are nourished from the dark shadows.
“After executing it, the dark shadows appear as saber awnings that line the mountains and endlessly hover behind him, and as his saber awnings fly out, no one can stop them.
“What does it look like, do you think?”
“Left Dao Zhuang’s Ten Thousand Shadows Invisible Sword!!!”
“Exactly!”
Hai Huaishen immediately nodded his head:
“Ever since this person came to the Green Country, I always felt that I would run into him one day.
“Then an extremely coincidental thing was discovered ……
“Although he has never been to the Green Country, he once killed a Buddhist scum who possessed the Great Brahma Vajra Skill.
“After that, he had a martial art similar to the Da Brahma Vajra Skill.
“The Ten Thousand Shadows Invisible Sword you are the Zuo Dao Zhuang Zhen Zhuang’s greatest skill.
“As far as I know, today, within the Left Road Zhuang, there is only one person who can …… precisely the Left Road Zhuang master.
“However, this Zhuang master then in the Jin Yang House outside the willow courtyard, was Jiang Ran beheaded.
“Do you say, all this in the end counts as coincidence?”
“Could it be that this person, Jiang Ran, is truly heavenly.
“He can reverse deduce and learn the opponent’s martial arts mastery in the middle of a fight with someone?”
The treasury master frowned:
“Then you have to be careful, you just struck out, if that person is really Jiang Ran, be careful that he learns your mastery.”
Hai Huaishen, however, shook his head:
“Even if he has such a skill, how could he have deduced a martial art to such an extent in a short period of time?
“I suspect …… that this person is more than likely harboring an extremely odd martial art in his body.
“After killing an opponent, one can deprive the opponent of a martial art.
“Otherwise, it is not enough to explain the mystery of this.”
“This is impossible ……”
The treasury master shook his head repeatedly:
“Where under the heavens is there such a thing?”
“The world is too big, the jianghu is too deep, what is not possible?”
Hai Huaishen couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood again when he said this.
The Treasure Vault Master was instantly not in a good position to argue with him, but just looked at the blood on the corner of his mouth and said helplessly:
“Why don’t you just go back and lie down first, how much blood do you have to shed if you go on like this?”
“Now is not the time to lie down ……”
Hai Huai said with a deep breath:
“If, if this person tonight, is really Jiang Ran …… he has already come to the imperial capital, why doesn’t he go to see his majesty, instead, instead …… he sneaks into the treasure trove first and steals the treasures?
“Where is this person now?”
“…… Earlier, I heard someone say that Eunuch Li was seriously injured. The one who made the move was a Jianghu martial artist who protected Princess Xi Yue …… whose name is, Jiang Liu.”
“Jiang Liu …… Jiang Ran ……”
Hai Huai Shen’s heart jumped:
“Could it be that ……”
“Do you want to go with me to take a look?”
The Treasure Vault Master opened his mouth and asked.
Hai Huaishen, however, sucked in a breath of cold air.
The matter of taking a look was small, but he was afraid that this one look would lead to heavenly trouble.
He was filled with entanglement for a moment.
If the matter did not involve Autumn Leaf, then it was all good, but if it involved Autumn Leaf, then it was no longer a small matter.
His own life and death was a small matter, causing diplomacy between the two countries, that would be really troublesome.
“Have you felt …… that His Majesty is a little odd today?”
When the words were all said here, the treasury master spoke in a low voice again.
Hai Huai Shen froze:
“Where is it odd?”
“What is he declaring those jianghu people to do?”
The Treasured Vault Master said softly:
“I always feel that His Majesty seems to be aware of many things.
“When he asked us to leave, he said that …… let us go and do what we should do.
“Now I feel that the thing to do is to go to Princess Xiyue’s side to find out ……
“Do you dare to bet your life and family, with my line!?”
“Why don’t I dare!!!”
Hai Huai Shen had no more doubts after hearing these words.
The two of them immediately made their way, and led a few more imperial guards and the guards on the treasury side.
Then they rushed towards the palace where Princess Xi Yue and the others were staying.
While walking, Hai Huaishen was still pondering this matter in his mind.
Princess Xi Yue was rumored to have been killed by Jiang Ran, but as a result, she was alive and well, not to mention that she had come to the imperial capital, and had even stated that it was not Jiang Ran who had assassinated her.
The rumored Jiang Ran was a fake.
But what if, all this is not so?
If the one who assassinated her was Jiang Ran, and during this period of time, she was taken captive by Jiang Ran.
Whether it was by coercion or other means.
In a nutshell, if she had defected to Jiang Ran and succumbed to Jiang Ran’s lustful authority.
In the end, she personally came out to absolve Jiang Ran, and even led Jiang Ran to the palace.
All of this is by no means impossible.
The more I think about it, the more I feel that my own ideas make sense, walking, are beginning to tiger wind, feel injured are better half.
Soon, Princess Xi Yue’s place to stay had arrived.
There were naturally people stopping them at the door, unable to let them rampage through.
The eunuch in the lead’s face went white as he looked at them with such vigor:
“The two adults, what are you doing?
“Do you guys know what kind of people live in here? What should we do if you are so reckless and bump into a noble person?”
The two of them, Hai Huaishen and the Treasure Vault Master, looked at each other, and it was clear that they had already made preparations before they came.
Hai Huaishen clasped his fists and said “I am offended”.
Immediately after that, he said in a loud voice:
“My humble position imperial forest army commander Hai Huaishen, this night the treasury was stolen, my humble position was ordered to investigate the case, but also please Xiyue Princess forgive us, allow us to go in to search.”
That eunuch panicked and waved his hands, and finally was really angry, his fingers pinched out orchid fingers, pointing at Hai Huaishen’s nose, shouting shrilly:
“What hour is this, what are you doing?
“The miscellaneous family will definitely go before the saint to sue you!!!”
Hai Huaishen glanced at this eunuch, his face as heavy as water:
“Eunuch, don’t forget exactly what salary you are receiving and whose family you are eating.”
“Hahaha!”
That eunuch also laughed out loud:
“Whose family’s rice are you eating? Naturally, it is the rice rewarded by His Majesty!
“It is the Holy Emperor who ordered us to stand guard here and not allow bystanders to disturb us.
“The theft of the treasury is a dereliction of duty on your part, you can search if you want, as long as the will of the Holy Spirit arrives, the miscellaneous family will never dare to stop.
“I am afraid that it is your own brain, think that under this sky anyone is a thief, want to check whoever you want to check!
“I’m asking you, does His Majesty have an order for you to search this place?
“I ask you again, even if there is no decree, do you have an oracle?”
“……”
Some words really made Hai Huai Shen speechless.
And that treasury master was also frowning.
This matter they are not in the right …… This kind of fanfare on the door, really fell down.
He frowned tightly, and suddenly pulled Hai Huai Shen, who still wanted to distinguish, and clasped his fists to that eunuch:
“It’s us who have been wavy, eunuch don’t want to be general with us ……”
“Hmph, not the miscellaneous family to and your general knowledge, but do what things always have to have a charter.
“What constitution is not …… and not a three year old child, how can it be so casual?”
Said he waved his sleeve:
“Still not go?”
Not far away above the platform, dressed in black, eyes watching this scene Jiang Ran, almost did not laugh out loud.
