My family’s master may be a bit poor, but he treats people excellently!
Jiang Wang opened the letter and looked it over, raising his eyebrows in slight surprise.
Zheng Shangming mentioned in the letter the incident with the constable in the morgue, only stating that someone from Yangxin Palace had sent people to oversee the case. Besides, Feng Gu’s body had not been tampered with; the person merely did a routine check...
Jiang Wang truly hadn’t expected matters related to Jiang Wuji here.
But on closer thought, aren’t the higher-level disputes in the entire Qi Country just among these few groups? fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Regarding the assassination case of Concubine Lei back then, how could Yangxin Palace not pay attention?
Jiang Wuji, to Jiang Wang, always seemed somewhat frivolous, not solemn.
Many in the court and common folks have criticized him, saying he’s "extravagant beyond measure" and "too flippant to be king."
Yet Jiang Wang never underestimated him, and the more he understood Jiang Wuqi, the more he valued Jiang Wuji.
The reason is simple—
If Jiang Wuji were an average person, how could he compete with Jiang Wuqi?
The Emperor Qi has plenty of children and lacks no mediocrity!
With Yangxin Palace standing there, Jiang Wuji’s weight is evident.
He holds the same level of significance as the Crown Prince, Lord Hua Ying, and the Longevity Palace Master.
If you just see Jiang Wuji as an ordinary, frivolous prince, then you’re taking these people for fools.
Getting back to the point, Jiang Wuji’s involvement is logical, but it undoubtedly adds weight to this case.
"Burning the midnight oil reading letters, Marquis Jiang, you really are perceptive and eager to learn!" Zhongxuan Sheng’s voice came from outside the door.
Jiang Wang had long noticed his footsteps, so he casually responded, "A letter from Zheng Shangming. Why are you here at this time..."
Zhongxuan Sheng walked into the room, looking at Jiang Wang with a somewhat complicated expression. "There’s news about Gongsun Yu."
"Where is he?" Jiang Wang quickly put the letter away and said directly, "Arrange for me to meet him."
"The carriage is already prepared," Zhongxuan Sheng said. "I asked someone to buy a few boxes of supplements a few days ago, which will arrive in Linzi by dawn. I happen to be visiting my grandfather, and you can hide in the boxes. Once we reach Marquis Mansion, you can disguise yourself with those leaving the city for supplies. There shouldn’t be many daring to inspect Marquis of Bowang’s Mansion, and the Shadow Guard will directly take you to the target location."
"Can’t we go now?" Jiang Wang asked.
Zhongxuan Sheng replied with a hint of irritation, "Do you think it’s normal for me to visit my grandfather in the middle of the night? If it were you, wouldn’t you be suspicious? Besides, in a few hours, it will be daylight. Jiang Da-ren, have you forgotten you still have to investigate at the Long Life Palace later?"
Jiang Wang turned to look out the window, feeling the day had passed swiftly.
"Is Gongsun Yu’s current location far?" he asked.
"Not really far, just in Bi Yu County," Zhongxuan Sheng replied. "But you won’t make it in time now, and why are you in such a hurry to see him?"
"Fine, let’s talk about it tomorrow then." Jiang Wang didn’t answer, simply saying, "I’ll study Dao Technique for a while longer."
"It’s just that..." Even though it was clear Jiang Wang wasn’t in the mood for conversation, Zhongxuan Sheng still tapped on his chair, "Have you thought about what I told you during the day?"
"Still thinking." Jiang Wang smiled, then asked, "Speaking of Dao Technique, when can you remove the Zhong Xuan Ability?"
"Divine Skills like these, after all, also rely on luck," Zhongxuan Sheng grinned. "Well, you cultivate. Shisi is still waiting for me."
His bulky figure walked out of the room.
With his wit, pretending to be diverted by Jiang Wang’s changing of the topic must be hard to pull off naturally.
Jiang Wang remained silent for a while, then quickly immersed himself in the world of Dao Technique.
Compared to the tangled distractions of the Red Dust world, the grandeur and vastness of the cultivation world are more intoxicating.
Until the long night returned to longness.
Until morning light entered the room.
