Daqian Night Emperor

Chapter 313 What is this?

"You just let Chi Zhai Luo go like this? Do you know who brought her here today?"

Zhao Qi'an sat at the table in the room, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and said.

The ugly slave looked up at him listlessly and said in a muffled voice, "I know."

"you know?"

Zhao Qi'an was a little surprised.

The eldest prince Ji Wuchang is the culprit that caused the demise of the Anuyi Kingdom. I thought Chounu was so calm from beginning to end because he didn't know the identity of the eldest prince.

But I never thought that she already knew it!
Zhao Qi'an asked, "Since you know this, why are you so calm?"

The ugly slave said bitterly: "My sister told me something I didn't know..."

It turned out that after the Southern Buddhist Kingdom snatched the remains of the god Dagon from the Anuyi Kingdom, the entire royal family of the Anuyi Kingdom hoped to take back the remains of their ancestors from the Southern Buddhist Kingdom.

For this reason, the king and queen of Anuyi did not hesitate to go deep into the southern Buddhist country in an attempt to regain the remains of their ancestors.

No one knows what happened in between.

All we know is that the king and queen of Anuyi returned safely, but they did not bring back the remains of their ancestors. Instead, they suddenly changed their temperament and wanted to join forces with the Southern Buddhist Kingdom to attack the expeditionary force.

It was also because of this that the Anuyi Kingdom suffered a counterattack from the expeditionary force and was destroyed.

“…Father and mother were wrong, but fortunately all the tribesmen are still alive. I just don’t know how they are doing.”

Ugly slave couldn't help but sigh: "My sister said that we should hate those bald men in Nanfo because they bewitched our parents. She also said that Ji Wuchang was going to attack Nanfo and after destroying those bald men, he would return our ancestors' remains to us."

"Master...what do you think I should do?"

Zhao Qi'an didn't know how to comfort her for a moment.

If things are really as Chi Zhailuo and Chounu said, then the demise of the Anuyi Kingdom was purely self-inflicted.

Whether it was bewitched by Buddhism or reached some kind of consensus with Buddhism...it could not change the self-destructive behavior of the Anuyi Kingdom.

From Ji Wuchang's perspective, since the army under his command was attacked by a foreign race for no reason, he must fight back.

From Chounu's perspective, no matter what the truth behind this matter is, it was Ji Wuchang who led his army to break through the border of Anuyi, and this fact cannot be changed.

No one is wrong, but sometimes it is difficult to distinguish right from wrong in this world.

Zhao Qi'an thought for a moment and said, "Aren't your parents and other relatives still alive? It won't be too late to make a decision after you meet them and find out the whole story."

Now, from his perspective, he naturally doesn’t want to see the people around him become enemies with Ji Wuchang.

But he didn't make a decision for Chou Nu either.

The ugly slave said in distress: "Before I met Ah Mei, I thought about her every day. Now that I have really met her... I feel that it is better not to have seen her!"

Zhao Qi'an smiled and said, "That's not the case. At least she's safe and sound. Isn't that one of your wishes come true?"

"Ugh."

……

The next day, Chou Nu still looked uneasy.

It seems that what happened yesterday with Chi Zhailuo still made her unable to calm down.

When Zhao Qi'an got up, she remembered that she hadn't prepared breakfast: "Ah, I forgot to make breakfast..."

"Forget it, I'll just ask the kitchen to send one over later."

Seeing her worried look, Zhao Qi'an said, "Now that the eldest prince is about to go to the southern border to suppress the Buddhist bandits, I will talk to him about letting your sister live in the mansion to keep you company."

The ugly slave knew that Zhao Qian'an had good intentions, but after thinking about it, he shook his head gloomily: "Forget it, this girl is very stubborn, I'm afraid she won't come no matter what."

Zhao Qi'an nodded and stopped talking about it. He said, "After breakfast, come with me."

"Really?"

The ugly slave suddenly became excited: "Let's go for an outing?"

These days, she has been locked up at home by Zhao Qi'an, who told her to concentrate on her cultivation and not to go out. Today, the master took the initiative to take her out, apparently because he saw that she was in a bad mood, so he wanted to take her out for an outing.

The ugly slave was once again moved that he had met a "good master".

But before she could feel moved for long, Zhao Qi'an interrupted her mercilessly, "What are you doing? I have something important to do. Accompany me to the Health Hall."

It turns out there is something important going on.

The ugly slave's face immediately drooped and he said "Oh".

……

After breakfast, the master and servant went out.

Mr. Nie has not returned to Beijing yet, and the person in charge of driving the horses is still the deputy steward Li Yulu of the mansion.

Now that Li Yulu has obtained Ji Wuchang's "Phoenix Returning Sword", Zhao Qi'an did not take it away. He loves it so much that he even holds it in his arms when he sleeps.

At this time he also wore a sword on his waist, and he leaned his hips against it when he walked. He had to draw attention to the sword on his waist, and he was so cocky.

When Zhao Qi'an saw the "Feng Fan Sword" on Li Yulu's waist, he remembered something.

A few days ago, he took out a "famous weapon" from the treasury, named "Duan Yue", which was a broadsword with a broad blade. He had originally intended to give it to Ji Qingkong as a birthday gift to Emperor Tianwu. Now that Ji Qingkong didn't come to take it, he might as well give the sword to Ji Wuchang as a favor.

Ji Wuchang gave him his sword as a gesture of goodwill yesterday, and now he gave him another sword, which could be considered as returning the favor.

"Alu, come..."

After Zhao Qi'an and Li Yulu whispered a few words, he handed the matter over to him and said, "There is no rush for this matter. Wait until the day when the eldest prince leaves the capital."

Li Yulu immediately understood and nodded, "Master, rest assured, I will definitely handle this matter well."

"Well, let's go."

Zhao Qi'an got on the carriage and lowered the curtain.

"drive!"

With a shout, the carriage slowly moved towards the north of the city.

……

In the north of the city, inside the Health Hall.

In the backyard, in a house with closed windows and doors, a candle flickered and a figure was writing furiously at a desk.

Suddenly, he seemed to have a sense of something and stopped writing.

Just as I put the brush on the pen holder, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

As the door opened, Zhao Qi'an walked in from outside.

Zhao Wang stood up and saluted: "Adoptive father."

"sit down."

Zhao Qi'an waved his hand, motioning him to sit down, and then he also came and sat on the floor in front of Zhao Wang's desk.

He looked at the baskets on the ground and said, "How much have you written in these days?"

"Lingyuan is as vast as the Great Qian Kyushu. Even if I write non-stop, the things I write about are just a drop in the ocean." Zhao Wang sighed lightly, "I can only write about the important things."

He looked at Zhao Qi'an and said, "Also, as for Lingyuan, the teacher has already planned to wake me up. I'm afraid I will be in ignorance for a while in the near future."

Zhao Qi'an nodded and said, "In that case, I'll make it short."

He stretched out his hand, and his palm quickly turned into jade, and then a wisp of dark yellow air emerged.

"What is this?"

This strand of "qi" was "pulled" out from the body of Donghua Sword Immortal.
