…
After the intruder left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not because they are afraid of conflict with the other party, but it is inevitable that both parties will be embarrassed if they meet in this place. What's more, the other party is the ambassador of a country, and provoking political disputes will do no good to them as outsiders.
On the other side, the elves who had been guarding the villa also completed real-time translation for them. Although the voice was a bit intermittent during the transmission, at least Xia Fan and others knew the purpose of the visitor.
These people want to find the whereabouts of Tiandao in the Ministry of Records.
"What exactly is the Way of Heaven?" Luo Qingqing couldn't help but ask.
"No one has seen it, so naturally no one knows about it." Only Qian Yan could answer this question. "People have various views on it. Some people think it is the entire sky, but there are some things left in the world. The entrance; the younger ones think it is a jewel, containing the Sumeru universe. If you add the descriptions of other foreigners, there will be more - some say it is a boat, some say it is a cup, and even an oil lamp. . But in fact, whether it exists or not is a question mark."
"Has this search been going on for hundreds of years?" Xia Fan pondered.
"No, maybe longer. A magical object can allow people to reach the other side of true knowledge, understand the truth of all things, and satisfy all people's wishes. Such legends should be regarded as something that has existed since ancient times."
"It's just that people used to find each other by themselves, and everything was peaceful for a long time. Until the kingdom continued to expand, the news also spread. It was no longer limited to internal circulation, and some people tried to find each other outside.' The Way of Heaven'."
"This is something that has never been recorded in books." Luo praised softly, his tone full of joy at the increase in knowledge.
It turns out that the contact between the Central Plains Continent and the outside world started very early, Xia Fan thought to himself, but after the collapse of the Yong Dynasty, this contact fell into a freezing point. By the time they came into contact again, the Six Nations had become a passive party.
He thought of a key question.
"Is there a deeper reason why the six kings rebelled against the Yong Dynasty? Or is it just like what is described in the history books, purely because of the cruelty of the Yong Dynasty?"
"I can't answer you on this point." Qian Yan shrugged, "There may be a reason, but the Fang family didn't know it at the time. The reason why the Fang family was willing to follow Ning Taizu was precisely because of King Yong's brutal rule. For an emperor, He said that his achievements in magic are indeed unparalleled in the world, but he has never regarded ordinary alchemists as human beings..."
Doesn't even the person who senses Qi count in this person's eyes? Xia Fan was secretly stunned. No wonder the alchemists would stand together with ordinary people and eventually overthrow the unified dynasty.
"What should we do?" Li asked.
"Let's pass the news to Xin Wu first." Xia Fan decided after thinking for a while. Sooner or later, the Privy Council will know that these people have come to the Record Department. It is reasonable for them to search this place for the purpose of finding out the truth. However, it is very doubtful that they will not report the enemy when they see them. What's more, just because the Privy Council and Jinxia City are not dealing with each other does not mean that these foreign envoys are friends - they must not have planned this assassination to save the people of Daqi.
This piece of information was passed on by Li through the ventilation patio.
Half a day later, Xin Wu's note was brought back to Xia Fan.
Through these handwritings, he could see the other party's excitement.
"Lord Xia, your discovery is absolutely worth a thousand dollars! Not only did you find out where the enemy behind the scenes came from, but you also proved the innocence of everyone in the Privy Council! Your Highness really did not misjudge the person."
"As for the secrets you mentioned, I don't know about it. If the way of heaven is really important, then it shouldn't be hidden in a secret compartment. But one thing is for sure, we can't let the other party search for the center of the recording department unscrupulously— No matter how deeply the secret is hidden, it will be unearthed sooner or later without anyone’s care.”
"Sir, can you think of a way to delay the search progress of the archipelago's envoys? Six days... no, five days is fine. His Highness the Crown Prince's house arrest cannot continue forever. I will also find a way to spread the news to the palace. Here, I leave everything to you!"
"In addition, please be careful and try to avoid a head-on conflict with the envoy from the Islands. According to the Privy Council's understanding, this person's strength is difficult to predict. I believe that neither His Highness the Second Prince nor Lord Gan want you to be harmed."
"This is the entire content of the letter." Xia Fan put away the note.
"So in the end, we still have to rely on us to stop the foreigners?" Li snorted, "I don't want to serve the Privy Council."
"But refusing will be regarded as betrayal in a sense." Luo Qingqing said calmly, "I have stayed in the Gyeonggi Privy Council and know their methods. Even if they don't say it on the surface, they will find out later. Opportunity to liquidate.”
"We had already left Shangyuan City by then."
"I think we can't let the other side do this." Qian Yan spoke last, "These archipelago envoys are not from the mainland after all. If the secrets of Tiandao fall into their hands, it will not be good news for the six countries."
"Well... the play has reached this point, and it must continue to be played." Xia Fan made a decision, "But we will not stand in the way of the Privy Council to deal face-to-face with the Ambassador of the Islands. Can it be delayed for a few days? Guaranteed, it all depends on the luck of both parties.”
"What have you decided to do?"
"That's right, aren't they looking for any clues related to the way of heaven?" He nodded, "Then let's give her a few clues."
…
The next night, Olina came to the underground core of Rokube again.
This time, her men quickly made new discoveries.
"Sir, this book mentions something that seems to be the way of heaven!"
"What did you say? Come and show it to me!"
Olina took the book and her heart beat wildly when she saw the page for the first time.
What a record that is!
