"Am I really crazy?"
Emperor Qi looked at the extremely shocked Tian Yanghou, and sighed a little: "If it weren't for the Twelve Witch Gods and the Tomb Fushan, would I join hands with Zheng Xiu to grab a piece of the pie from the people of Chu?"
Tian Yanghou was still shocked and couldn't speak, and after a few breaths, he came back to his senses, and said in a trembling voice: "Zheng Xiu is really willing to return the twelve witch god heads to me?"
The corners of Emperor Qi's lips raised slightly, revealing an incomprehensible smile, "The heads of the twelve witch gods are already at my court."
Tian Yanghou's body froze suddenly, "Already in my court?"
"The Tomb Talisman Workshop has already taken over the inspection, and it has been sent to An Temple at this time." Even if Emperor Qi just stated, he couldn't help but feel agitated, and his voice trembled a little: "The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven has been arranged. Just wait for the return of the twelve witch gods to be inspired."
Tian Yanghou was silent for a long time before he finally calmed down.
"The tomb Fushan will also be drawn back to our dynasty?" He looked at Emperor Qi and asked seriously.
Emperor Qi nodded, "This is the condition that the Tomb Talisman Workshop is willing to do this."
Tian Yanghou fell silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
Emperor Qi's eyes warmed up a little, and he said, "Uncle, do you think it's worth it for me to do this?"
Tian Yanghou nodded slowly, then he took a deep breath, and said: "It is worth it, of course it is worth it, the return of the heads of the twelve witch gods, and the return of the Tomb Talisman Mountain to our dynasty, even if it is my life, it is worth it. only… "
Emperor Qi frowned slightly, looked at Tian Yanghou who was hesitant to speak, and said, "Just what?"
Tian Yanghou shook his head, looked at him and said, "It's just that you forgot one thing, you are sorry for Master Yan."
Qi Di fell silent.
"If Master Yan is alive, he will not let the Tomb Talisman Workshop and Zheng Xiu cooperate to deal with Chu. So no matter whether the Lushan League is your intention or not, he is still dead. Only after he is dead can your plan be implemented. "
As Tian Yanghou said, he felt a little painful, "Master Yan is the object of my admiration and longing for many practitioners, and he still has successors left behind. When the news of the fall of Chudu spread, if I could think of This point, his successors and many practitioners of our dynasty will also think of this point. They will not forgive you."
Emperor Qi was silent for a few breaths.
Then his face became resolute and dignified again, "Just like you said, even if these people hate, they hate me, not Qi. As long as I can make me become a tiger again, even if I pay my life, it is worth it." .”
"So ask uncle to support me."
He stood up from the dragon chair and bowed deeply to Tian Yanghou.
Tian Yanghou felt that this was natural, but he looked at Emperor Qi's demeanor, and he was not much moved except that the news he told him was still a little shocking.
Because he thought of Master Yan.
The former Emperor Qi respected and relied on Master Yan more than anyone else.
…
…
The long-lasting flame in Chuduli burned half of the sky red, gradually burning together with the sunset glow in the sky.
The big river goes east.
Passing through Chu and Qi, reaching the far east, it turns into the Qin territory, intersects with the great rivers from Qin, and merges into the East China Sea.
The easternmost Jiaodong County is like a long and narrow canine tooth, with one end piercing into the Qin State and the other into the sea.
In addition to elixir and sea animals, rare jewelry and spices and other amazingly valuable materials, the most important product of Jiaodong County is food.
A large amount of fish can even meet one-third of Qin's meat needs after being made into dry goods.
In a certain fish-drying ground, a large number of finger-thick small marine fish were boiled in hot water and spread on the flat stone floor, exuding heat and stench in the setting sun at this time.
After several days of exposure to the sun, these dried fish can be simply cooked to give off a delicious taste, which can make even the simplest meals in the marching meals delicious.
A woman in a yellow cloth robe sat on a bamboo chair and watched the transformation process day after day.
Many laborers in her sight were also doing this kind of work day after day, until a middle-aged man walked into the fish drying ground in the sunset, but they did not attract the attention of those people.
Still here.
The woman spoke in her heart with some emotion, still sitting and looking at the man, until the very dark-skinned, very short middle-aged man walked not far in front of her, and then said softly, a little haughtily : "Zhang Fifteen?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Madam Biyu?"
The woman smiled slightly, which was a tacit consent.
"Who would have thought that Zheng Xiu's adoptive mother would always live in this kind of place." The middle-aged man sniffled and said, "It smells really bad."
"Whatever you smell from childhood, you will get used to it, and it's the same with what you eat." Wrinkles appeared in the corners of the woman's eyes, "What's more, she is trying to avoid letting me be found by you people from the Bashan Sword Field. I just didn't expect that you would really So boring, find me here."
"Killing other people's relatives or kidnapping Qin people to blackmail others is one of her favorite methods, but such methods don't have much effect on her."
The woman looked at Zhang Shiwu and said, "Even if you kill me, it won't hurt her much. I'm just a foster mother to her. You guys from the Bashan Sword Field took advantage of this opportunity to enter Jiaodong County , shouldn’t we do something more meaningful?”
"Everyone knows how ruthless she is, so you don't need to remind me." Zhang Shiwu laughed. He looked at the woman and said, "What is more useful than destroying Jiaodong County is using Jiaodong County. We know that 'Huang Po'an' Not an island."
"Huang Po'an" is not an island. This sentence is very strange, and it is also very abrupt at this time.
However, upon hearing these words, the calm and smiling woman suddenly changed her complexion, and her ruddy face became extremely pale.
"It doesn't make sense to blackmail her, but what about blackmailing you?"
Zhang Shiwu looked at the woman seriously, "She is just your adopted daughter, and you only raised her for a while, but is that really all?"
"Only you know the exact location of 'Huang Po'an', and you have the sea chart of its movement trajectory. That is the real Jiaodong County, where the wealth and many accumulations of the Zheng family clan are all there." After a pause, Zhang Shiwu looked Then she continued: "You have a son and a granddaughter who loves you very much. Now if we take their lives in exchange for this chart, would you be willing?"
The old woman's lips trembled.
Her eyes fell on Zhang Shiwu's hand.
In the palm of his hand was a small piece of white jade in the shape of a fish, which belonged to her most beloved granddaughter.
"You really won't kill them, will you let them go?"
The old woman said tremblingly.
"We will let you go." Zhang Shiwu said with a slight sarcasm: "Going to Jiaodong County to kill some people makes her feel sad and angry. That is a really boring thing. What makes her really painful is losing the entire Jiaodong County help."
