Chapter 96
Although his appearance is somewhat similar to Rong Jing, and he can be called handsome, but because of his demeanor and temperament, he does not seem to have the natural calm and mysterious meaning of Rong Jing. He can only be regarded as an ordinary person with a better appearance.
At this moment, he deliberately softened his voice, and the slightly cool sound quality suddenly became soft, which was quite catchy at first listen.
The moment Rong Jing heard his voice, he couldn't help but frowned slightly.
Xie Xuanqing's attention was on him. At this moment, his expression changed, and Xie Xuanqing keenly caught the rare and fleeting impatience between his eyebrows.
The action of reaching out to hold Rong Jing's fingertips paused for a second, Xie Xuanqing raised his eyes, and saw that the young man who had just spoken had walked not far from them.
Rong Jing's expression was stern, and Rong Yu couldn't help feeling guilty for a moment when he met his gaze.
But thinking of the resources under the Xie Corporation, Rong Yu's eyelashes trembled, and she looked at Rong Jing with a smile: "Master Rong Tian, do you... have any misunderstandings about me?"
"I just said I wanted to have dinner with you because I admire you and want to be your friend. I don't have any other intentions."
His tone was very sincere. If someone who didn't know the situation heard it, they would naturally subconsciously feel a bit favorable towards him and start to suspect whether Rong Jing had done something bad to him before.
However, although Xie Xuanqing was unaware of what had happened before, his heart was wholeheartedly on Rong Jing. When he heard what he said, he was the first to notice the words "eat together" in his words.
She said she admired Rong Jing and even had dinner with him...
Although he knew that the truth of the matter was most likely not what he thought, Xie Xuanqing still frowned slightly and asked, "Sir, who is he?"
Rong Yu heard Xie Xuan's low voice coming from inside the car. His tone was so gentle that he couldn't hide it. His expression changed slightly. Just as he was about to introduce himself, Rong Jing looked at him indifferently, with a cold look between his eyebrows: "I don't know him."
The voice of Rong Yu's self-introduction was stuck in his throat, and then he heard Xie Xuanqing say "hmm" as if it was nothing important, and an extremely cold face suddenly appeared behind the car door.
The dark eyes looked at him gently like the abyss.
Compared to Rong Jing's stern expression, Xie Xuanqing's appearance gave him another extremely dangerous and frightening feeling.
Rong Yu couldn't help but take a step back, and then he saw Xie Xuanqing retract his gaze and close the car door without hesitation.
He wasn't curious at all, and didn't doubt Rong Jing's words at all!
Although he knew that the plan would not succeed at once, Rong Yu was so angry that he couldn't help but punch the car next to him when he saw the black Cullinan speeding away.
Then a questioning voice sounded, and the car owner who happened to be returning from nearby saw his actions and quickly came up to him and pushed him: "What are you doing to my car?!"
“Fuck…” Rong Yu was pushed unexpectedly by the other party. When he turned around and was about to curse, he saw that the owner of the car he had just hit was strong and had a fierce face. He rolled up his sleeves and stared at him. It seemed that he could not afford to offend him.
Especially since this is in front of Xie's Entertainment, there are countless reporters and paparazzi coming and going. He has just entered the industry not long ago, and he relies on others to help him get the resources he has now, but he can't get into trouble at this time.
Thinking of this, Rong Yu gritted his teeth and persuaded himself to endure it.
He whispered an apology, but the car owner, who had just been offended by someone, sneered: "Apologize, is that all? I tell you, I just bought this car, and I don't know what will happen if you hit it like this."
Rong Yu frowned: "You are being unreasonable."
The car owner showed off his two big strong arms and leaned on the car beside him: "I am being unreasonable, so what? I tell you, I caught you hitting my car, no matter what, now you have to take my car to be inspected."
He had a bandit-like demeanor and an angry look on his face, and looked difficult to deal with.
Rong Yu had been entangled with the other party for a long time. He noticed a familiar-looking reporter from the corner of his eyes and quickly turned away: "...I'll give you the money, you can go and check it yourself."
As he spoke, Rong Yu searched his body and found that his cell phone was missing at some point.
A trace of panic flashed across his face. The car owner saw his expression and grinned, "Oh? Aren't you going to pay? Where's the money?"
Rong Yu gritted his teeth and said, "I lost my phone. If you really want this money, leave me your number and I will transfer it to you when I get back."
The car owner said: "I'm giving you a number so that you can get revenge later, right? I've seen a lot of people like you, huh."
Rong Yu also realized that he didn't really want the money, but he was just angry for some reason and wanted to take it out on him.
Cursing in his heart, Rong Yu noticed that the reporter seemed to have seen this, and he didn't bother to continue arguing with him. He just forced a smile and said, "Brother, I really didn't mean it that way. Can I continue to apologize to you?"
As he said this, he really didn't want to lose face and bowed deeply to the car owner several times on the spot.
When the car owner saw him like this, he was still a little unhappy, but some people had already gathered around him. He cursed softly, let Rong Yu go, turned around, got in the car and drove away.
Rong Yu stood up and just breathed a sigh of relief, then he noticed that the reporter not far away had already taken a camera and took a few pictures over here.
Startled, Rongyu wanted to go over to stop the other person, but the reporter ran away immediately after taking the photo. Rongyu chased him for a while but still failed to get the film back.
His face was gloomy.
Rong Yu actually just debuted not long ago, but he knew that this was a hard-won opportunity, so after his debut, he worked very hard to climb up, and at this time he has accumulated quite a bit of popularity.
If that reporter released the photo, it wouldn't have much impact on his reputation, but it would still look bad.
...What bad luck!
No wonder everyone in the family said that Rong Jing was a jinx. He just wanted to get closer to the other party and hook up with the head of the Xie family, but he was suppressed by him like this. He really... deserved to be sent away.
Rong Yu complained in his heart, but finally took a taxi back to the company with a gloomy face.
After buying a new mobile phone and getting a card, Rongyu opened Weibo and saw that the reporter had indeed posted the same thing.
Fortunately, he informed the man in advance, and the other party used some unknown means to suppress it, and it did not cause much impact.
But these facts were affecting his mood. Rong Yu threw his mobile phone on the table with a sullen face. He didn't know what he had pulled, but the tablet he had placed on the table suddenly slid down and hit the ground with a "bang". The screen cracked with an unignorable crack.
"Fuck!" Rong Yu couldn't help but curse, and sat opposite him with his agent, and said hesitantly, "Rong Yu, did you run into something today?"
Why does it seem like I'm suddenly much more unlucky?
Rong Yu also reacted after hearing this.
When that person contacted him, he clearly gave him means to defend himself. Even if Rong Jing's fate really harmed him, he wouldn't become so unlucky.
Thinking of this, Rong Yu suddenly stood up with his phone in hand and said, "I have something to do. I need to go home first."
The agent also knew what was going on behind his back. Although he was a little unhappy at the moment, he still asked him to go back first.
"Come out with me tonight. Mr. Li from last time wants to see you again."
When Rong Yu heard this, he stopped walking out.
"……I see."
Why, why should Rong Jing be accompanied by a person like Xie Xuanqing, but he has to accompany those fat and big-eared guys!
Feeling more and more resentful, Rong Yu hurriedly got on the elevator and headed for the parking lot.
On the other side, Xie Xuan sat lightly in the back seat, his fingers gently grasping Rong Jing's fingertips, but asked in a low voice: "Sir, do you dislike that person just now?"
In fact, Rong Jing rarely shows any dislike towards others, let alone a look that carries a hint of impatience.
The last time Rong Jing showed disgust was when he was dealing with the Lan family's affairs in Southern Province.
Thinking of this, Xie Xuanqing's expression slightly changed, but he couldn't help but said: "I'll go back and contact Captain Zhou and ask him to check it out."
He now had no guilt in ordering Zhou Songyun to do his bidding. When Rong Jing heard him speak, he knew what he was thinking about.
However, Rong Yu's appearance was indeed filled with a strange coincidence. Rong Jing could see his fate manifested, but it was only because he had some entanglement with his original body. Many things became unclear due to the interference of cause and effect.
With his fingertips lightly tapping on his knee, Rong Jing did not stop Xie Xuanqing's action, but just said "hmm" lightly, and then thought of the look in Rong Yu's eyes when he looked at Xie Xuanqing just now.
He has always had a cold temperament, but when he saw the soft and gentle look that Rong Yu gave Xie Xuanqing, he still felt a little... unhappy in his heart.
It was also at this time that he noticed that although the golden light of merit on Rong Yu's body was extremely strong, it was actually just floating on his body and was not the merit he had gained.
No wonder.
Rong Jing thought of what he had seen on the other person's face before. Peach blossoms bring bad luck, and he is sentimental but lacks loyalty. Although no one has lost a life, he has incurred a lot of sins. How could he have such pure merits?
If these merits were not obtained by himself but were given to him by others, then everything would be clear.
In order to extract the golden light of merit so purely, besides the owner of the golden light of merit being willing, there is another way, and that is... the intervention of the Heavenly Master.
Rong Jing tried to calculate the other person's face and knew that his fate had shown a slight fluctuation not long ago.
This slight fluctuation was not obvious, but it was enough to change Rong Yu's situation at that time.
So... could it be Yuan Xiu?
Thinking of this, Rong Jing saw that the other party's attention was focused on Xie Xuanqing, but he moved his fingertips and directly sent the golden light of merit on his body back to its original owner.
If this golden light of merit was given willingly by the original owner, then Rong Jing's behavior would not have any impact.
If not...
Rong Jing watched the golden light of merit on Rong Yu's body dissipate, and the concealed peach blossom evil spirit suddenly burst out, dyeing Rong Yu's whole body a light pink.
If the original owner had not willingly handed over the golden light of merit to Rong Yu, then after he casually sent the golden light back, the person who acted behind the scenes should also pay some price.
As for Rong Yu, he no longer had the protection of the golden light of merit, and the peach blossom evil on his body could not be dispelled for the time being. He would probably be unlucky for a while.
Rong Jing seldom did such things before, but at this moment, as he watched the golden light of merit on Rong Yu's body dissipate, a faint peach blossom evil spirit shrouded his brows, and his mood was strangely... light.
Under the influence of this mood, Master Rong became more tolerant of Xie Xuanqing's increasingly presumptuous behavior of filling every gap between his fingers.
And the head of the Xie family is a person who is used to getting more than he deserves.
He barely needed to look up at Rong Jing's expression to guess Rong Jing's mood from his reaction.
With a slight frown on his face, Xie Xuan gently held Rong Jing's hand, but his thumb gently rubbed Rong Jing's knuckles.
Some overly intimate behavior.
The driver was still driving the car. The skin on Rong Jing's hands was extremely white and thin, and he could keenly feel Xie Xuanqing's actions at this moment.
The fingertips with thin calluses felt warm and rough, and when they gently rubbed across the knuckles, they brought about a strange tingling sensation.
Rong Jing couldn't help but frowning slightly when he rubbed his fingers against her, and his clasped fingertips subconsciously tightened, making their hands clasped even closer.
Seeing this, Xie Xuanqing paused, but a smile appeared on his lips.
"Sir, what would you like to eat this time?" Seeing that Master Rong was about to get angry, Xie Xuan asked with a slight smile, but changed the subject lightly.
Rong Jing naturally guessed his intention.
But the other person's deep eyes contained a faint smile at this moment. When he looked at him quietly, the affection in his eyes was not concealed at all, but it was directly reflected in Rong Jing's eyes.
A sour yet slightly sweet emotion suddenly passed through his heart. Rong Jing was not quite sure what this feeling was, but his actions were extremely honest.
His fingertips moved slightly, and Rong Jing did not break free from Xie Xuanqing's palm in the end. Instead, he gently looked away and said, "Let's go to the private restaurant as before."
Xie Xuan smiled lightly and said, "Okay."
The driver cleverly changed direction when he heard Rong Jing speak, and in less than half an hour, they arrived at the private restaurant.
It was still the familiar Dazhao style, but when they came here again, there was a subtle change in the mood of Rong Jing and Xie Xuanqing.
Rong Jing no longer needs to hide his origins. Living in this era with him is his former best friend, and now... his lover.
As if sensing Rong Jing's thoughts, Xie Xuan gently rubbed the back of Rong Jing's hand with his fingertips as if to soothe him, then he got out of the car and walked to the side where Rong Jing was sitting, opened the car door and said with a smile: "Let's go, sir."
The owner of the restaurant was still the same one as before. When he saw Rong Jing and Xie Xuanqing approaching, he didn't know how his heavy body managed to be so agile, and he walked in front of them in just two or three steps.
"Mr. Xie, Mr. Rong, it's been a while since we last met." The boss bowed and said with a smile, "The private room is still reserved for you two. Please come in."
The Xie family has been developing rapidly recently, and Rong Jing's identity as a Heavenly Master has been increasingly confirmed.
The restaurant owner can run the store safely and steadily in Beijing, where every inch of land is valuable, because he has a strong backer.
However, when the backer meets Xie Xuanqing and Rong Jing in person, he will probably have to give in a little.
So Xie Xuanqing was not surprised when he saw his attitude at this moment.
With a slight nod, Xie Xuan gently signaled the other party to lead the way.
The food in this private restaurant is indeed good. Xie Xuanqing has now recovered his memories as Xie Chong in his previous life and has a better understanding of Rong Jing's taste.
As usual, they ordered a few dishes that suited Rong Jing's taste. Just when Xie Xuanqing was about to ask someone to prepare them, Rong Jing, who was sitting next to him, suddenly said, "Let's add another dish of stir-fried beef with king oyster mushrooms."
The waitress, who was dressed in a dress from the Dazhao Dynasty, responded gently with "OK" and waited for a few seconds. Seeing that Xie Xuanqing didn't react, she retreated and asked the kitchen to prepare.
Suddenly, only Xie Xuanqing and Rong Jing were left in the box.
He reached out and poured a cup of tea for Rong Jing. His deep eyes fell on the young man beside him with delicate and cold features. His Adam's apple moved up and down, but he asked, "Sir, why did you suddenly order beef?"
Although Rong Jing has some preferences in food, he is actually not a picky person.
It’s just that he is allergic to beef, so most of the time, Xie Xuanqing won’t order dishes containing beef.
With a hint of anticipation in his heart, Xie Xuanqing seemed to know nothing. He looked at Rong Jing deeply and asked.
"...Don't you like this dish?" Rong Jing frowned slightly when he heard this, but asked back very naturally.
Xie Xuanqing was confused, then smiled and said, "Yes, I like this dish."
Stir-fried beef with king oyster mushrooms is not a difficult dish to make, but most restaurants cannot produce the taste that Xie Xuanqing likes.
This private restaurant is famous for its Dazhao cuisine, and the chef in the restaurant indeed has the skills of the imperial chefs back then. The dishes they prepare are 70% similar to the taste of the original Dazhao cuisine.
But Xie Xuanqing didn't expect Rong Jing would keep this in mind.
He always thought that it was all wishful thinking on his part in the previous life, and Rong Jing regarded him as a close friend till the end. So even at this age, when he and Rong Jing finally had a mutual understanding, the uneasiness in his heart still existed.
But at this moment, Xie Xuanqing couldn't help but wonder if there was a slight possibility...
Didn’t his husband like him in his previous life as well?
He looked at Rong Jing quietly, his voice sinking slightly: "I just didn't expect that the gentleman still remembered it."
Rong Jing took a sip of the teacup and paused when he heard the words.
"I'm very happy, sir." Xie Xuan continued with a slight smile.
Rong Jing: “…Yeah.”
After stroking the cup gently with his fingertips for a while, Rong Jing didn't quite understand why he remembered Xie Xuanqing's preferences so clearly.
They were close friends in their previous life, but...
Perhaps it was because they had been together for too long, and without him realizing it, the feelings had already undergone subtle changes.
The door of the box opened again, and girls in palace skirts came in one after another, slowly placing the soup bowls and dishes in their hands on the table.
The rich aroma of food wafted in, and Xie Xuanqing naturally reached out to scoop a bowl of soup for Rong Jing, and then moved the dish of stir-fried beef with king oyster mushrooms from Rong Jing's side to his own side.
The smell of beef finally faded away a little, Rong Jing's brows relaxed slightly, he took the bowl of soup and took a sip.
The fragrant pigeon soup has a slight bitter taste from the medicinal herbs. After taking a sip, even your fingertips feel a faint warmth.
Although the injuries Rong Jing suffered in the Lan family's secret realm were not serious, they were not so easy to heal. If it were not for the golden light of merit given by Madam Wen, Rong Jing's cultivation would probably not have recovered so quickly.
This kind of injury is on the foundation of metaphysics, and the effect of dietary supplements is really minimal.
But whenever they had a meal together, Xie Xuanqing would always remember to ask someone to prepare some warming and blood-replenishing dishes. Over time, Rong Jing actually felt that these dishes really did have quite a bit of effect.
Xie Xuanqing watched Rong Jing slowly finish the pigeon soup, then he stood up with a smile and served him another bowl of rice.
There weren’t many dishes ordered on the table, but there were quite a few too.
Fortunately, the dishes in this private restaurant are quite exquisite, and the two of them ate slowly to the end, so they didn't waste much.
Xie Xuanqing felt a slight sense of fullness in his stomach. He looked at the remaining stir-fried beef with king oyster mushrooms with some regret, and put down his chopsticks.
Rong Jing was not a greedy person either. After feeling 70% full, he put down his bowl and chopsticks.
Xie Xuan lightly wiped his lips and palms, and seeing the situation, he changed to a new wet towel, then pulled Rong Jing's hand over and wiped it carefully.
Rong Jing always eats in an elegant and leisurely manner.
By the time he had finished eating, there was no trace of dirt on his lips or fingers.
Xie Xuanqing wiped it carefully, and his pale pink lips finally showed some color because he was full.
Xie Xuanqing's gaze lingered on it for a moment, then he threw the wet handkerchief in his hand back into the copper basin, lowered his head and placed a very light kiss on those pale pink lips.
It's fleeting.
Rong Jing's eyelashes moved slightly, and then he raised his eyes and looked at Xie Xuanqing.
Xie Xuan lowered his eyes slightly and looked back. His stern brows melted unconsciously, and in his deep eyes there was an unignorable tenderness.
"Sir?" Xie Xuan looked at him in a low voice.
Rong Jing came back to his senses, turned his eyes away silently, but responded with a faint "hmm".
A smile flashed across Xie Xuanqing's eyes. Just as he was about to say something, Rong Jing's cell phone, which was placed beside him, made a soft "ding" sound.
Frowning, Rong Jing shifted his attention to his phone.
He opened WeChat and took a look, and it turned out that it was Zhou Songyun who sent him a message.
As early as when Rong Jing was in Southern Province, Zhou Songyun had already conveyed the matter of Rong Jing's intention to establish a sect directly to Wei Yixing through the internal means of a special department.
In addition, General Lin and Lin Yihong also returned to Beijing from Southern Province a few days ago. With the joint efforts of several people, a response was given from above.
Zhou Songyun: Minister Wei means, are you available today or tomorrow? The people above want to meet with you in person.
Zhou Songyun: The location is up to you, but I suggest that if it is not necessary, it is best to do it in the special department.
The importance that the higher-ups attached to Rong Jing was really beyond Zhou Songyun's expectations.
He originally thought that after reporting the matter, the higher-ups would at most consider it thoroughly and then convey the reply through Wei Yixing. However, he did not expect that those leaders above... actually wanted to meet with Rong Jing directly.
Let’s not talk about anything else, just talking about the identities of those leaders. The general public may not know other Chinese people, but they often appear in the news, and their every move involves almost the entire Chinese people.
Even Zhou Songyun himself, given the status of the Zhou family and the importance and uniqueness of the special department, had only come into contact with these leaders a few times.
As a result, at this time, the higher-ups took the initiative to propose to meet with Rong Jing in person?
When Zhou Songyun saw the notice, his first reaction was that it was impossible. After he saw clearly that the person who sent the notice was Wei Yixing, he took a deep breath and his mind started working frantically.
With Rong Jing's cultivation and influence, if he wanted to establish a sect, the country would not be able to stop him.
Especially since his identity is not ordinary...
Although Zhou Songyun did not report his guess, a young celestial master named "Rong Jing" who possessed many lost techniques and whose cultivation was unfathomable and who looked like a banished immortal from the otherworldly world -
Since the above people have reached their current positions, have insight into the intentions of other countries in many diplomatic occasions, and have won countless benefits for China, how low can their minds be? Naturally, I guessed some of the answers.
He deduced the secrets of heaven and changed the dragon veins. In one day, the world changed hands, and the name of Master Rong of the Zhao Dynasty resounded through the ages.
Even if such rumors are a bit exaggerated, the four words "changing the dragon veins" alone are enough to cause the country to worry a little.
Such a powerful Heavenly Master, even though this era is no longer the era of cold weapons, the energy he contains is still difficult to estimate.
Rather than suppressing the other party rudely and leaving behind troubles, it is better to obey the other party's wishes and form an alliance with them.
After all, judging from the current situation, Rong Jing does not seem to have much dissatisfaction with the current China, and he also attaches great importance to the Chinese people.
Their goals are the same, which is the basis for cooperation.
After a brief and efficient discussion, the leaders looked at the documents reported several times by the special department that mentioned Rong Jing's achievements, gritted their teeth, and decided to take a gamble.
Rong Jing looked at the message sent by Zhou Songyun and frowned slightly.
After thinking for a while, he replied.
Master Rong Tian: This afternoon will be fine.
Zhou Songyun seemed to be keeping an eye on his reply all the time. When he saw the message he sent, he replied immediately.
Zhou Songyun: Okay.
After a few minutes, Zhou Songyun replied again.
Zhou Songyun: The reply has been given from above. Master Rong Tian, where have you decided to meet?
Master Rong Tianshi: Just the special department.
Although the house left by the original owner is not bad, the safety of these leaders is extremely important. The community is full of good and bad people, so it is not suitable for a meeting.
The special department was originally a department specially set up by the state to deal with supernatural and metaphysical events. Once they reached an agreement with those leaders to establish a sect, the special department would probably be the one that would contact them in the end. It would save some effort if they met there directly.
Zhou Songyun was not surprised by Rong Jing's decision. After replying "OK", he said.
Zhou Songyun: Master Rong Tian, are you... with Patriarch Xie now?
Rong Jing: “?”
Although he was a little confused about Zhou Songyun's question, nothing could be hidden from others. Rong Jing lowered his eyes and glanced at the message he sent, then replied.
Master Rong Tian: Yes.
Zhou Songyun: Then please, Master Rong, notify Patriarch Xie to come over as well.
This was also what the leaders above meant. Zhou Songyun didn't know what they were thinking, but he still accurately conveyed this message to Xie Xuanqing and Rong Jing.
When Rong Jing saw the message, he frowned slightly, but did not agree directly. Instead, he asked.
Master Rong Tianshi: Why.
Zhou Songyun: I don’t know why, but this is what the above means.
After a long time, Zhou Songyun saw Rong Jing's reply.
Master Rong Tian: I understand.
Zhou Songyun: “…”
So, was it notified?
He didn't dare to ask this question to Rong Jing, so he could only send it to Xie Xuanqing as well.
To be honest, after knowing that Xie Xuanqing and Rong Jing were together, Zhou Songyun had some subtle feelings towards Xie Xuanqing, but this subtle emotion could not affect his mood, and he successfully conveyed the notice at this time.
Xie Xuanqing just noticed that his husband was frowning, and he seemed unhappy. The mobile phone in his hand lit up and a message alert popped up on WeChat.
After taking a look at the notification sent by Zhou Songyun, Xie Xuanqing replied.
Xie Xuanqing: I understand.
Zhou Songyun: “…”
Fortunately, Xie Xuanqing followed up with another sentence.
Xie Xuanqing: I will go with you, sir.
Zhou Songyun: ...OK
After casually glancing at Zhou Songyun's reply, Xie Xuanqing put the locked screen of his phone aside, then asked with a smile, "What did you see just now, sir?"
Rong Jing raised his eyes calmly and said, "Didn't Zhou Songyun send it to you?"
Xie Xuanqing: "..."
I had originally intended to tease Rong Jing, but I had not expected his husband to directly expose this, which was... not bad.
With a slightly deeper smile on his lips, Xie Xuan said lightly: "So, sir, you don't want me to go with you?"
He almost immediately guessed the reason why Rong Jing frowned. When Rong Jing heard this, his eyebrows became even colder, but he did not refute: "I think... they also guessed your identity."
Rong Jing has never concealed his differences. With his methods, even if the country is a little wary of him, they will not easily touch him.
But considering Xie Xuanqing's identity, it becomes a little sensitive.
The founding emperor of the previous dynasty - even the founding emperor of several dynasties ago - will still make people doubt whether he would have the idea of re-establishing his own dynasty.
In particular, Rong Jing once overthrew the old dynasty and changed the dragon veins for him.
Even though the old dynasty was corrupt and the people were living in misery, it was not without some influence from Xie Chong.
In the eyes of those leaders, Rong Jing alone is not scary, and Xie Xuanqing alone is not scary either.
But if the two of them were put together, one of them had the skills and background to change the world, and the other had a business group that was as rich as a country, if they really had any plans...
Then China will really be in turmoil.
Therefore, before allowing Rong Jing to establish a sect, they had to carefully and emphatically confirm their sincerity and ideas.
As someone who had also been an emperor, Xie Xuanqing guessed Zhou Songyun's thoughts when he saw the message he received.
Informing him directly like this could be considered a strategic move.
If Xie Xuanqing really had other thoughts, he would naturally become suspicious when he saw this news. In his confusion, he might reveal some flaws.
If Xie Xuanqing had no other ideas, he would naturally not be caught in anything during the conversation.
Thinking of the leaders' ingenious thoughts, Xie Xuan smiled lightly, but whispered to Rong Jing: "Sir...are you worried about me?"
Not to mention that he is now the head of the Xie family, with money and power that are no less than many people. Even when he was Emperor Zhao, even though he was rich, his beloved passed away because of it. It was so painful...
But he didn't want to try it again.
Rong Jing lowered his eyes and looked at his dark eyes that seemed to contain a deep pool. After a long while, he frowned and replied, "Yeah."
Although he was a little embarrassed to admit it, but... he was indeed worried about Xie Xuanqing.
Xie Xuanqing's question just now was just a casual question, but he didn't expect that his teacher would answer him so honestly.
His eyes suddenly lit up, and Xie Xuan leaned over, hesitantly and tentatively kissed Rong Jing's lips a few times, then smiled and said, "...I am very happy that you said that, sir."
But since the message had been sent directly to him, Xie Xuanqing did not intend to avoid it.
After telling Rong Jing about his guess, Xie Xuanqing said, "Even if they are sure that I have other thoughts, the higher-ups may not take action against me at this time. This visit is more like a 'business negotiation', just to find out what we are thinking."
Xie Xuanqing really didn't have any idea about this. This time he went there more to use this matter... to gain more benefits for his husband.
After all, considering the people is considering the people. His husband has given so many things, the government can't just take them away cheaply, right?
Rong Jing naturally knew what he was thinking.
After looking at Xie Xuanqing for a while, Rong Jing finally relaxed his frown, turned his head and said calmly: "Let's go."
Because the identities of the leaders involved were too important, this time, Xie Xuanqing directly asked the driver to leave, and drove Rong Jing to the special department himself.
Before they even got close to the special department's office building, a team of soldiers armed with live ammunition appeared before them.
Xie Xuan frowned slightly, but verified the other party's identity before driving forward.
There were many military vehicles parked along the way.
When they were almost approaching the door, Xie Xuanqing stopped the car and then got out of the car with Rong Jing.
Zhou Songyun was standing not far away to greet them.
Unlike usual days, Zhou Songyun was wearing a military uniform today, and he looked extremely solemn: "Master Xie, Master Rong, the Minister and the others are already inside, please follow me."
"Yeah." Rong Jing responded lightly, his expression as indifferent as ever.
There was a cold and calm look in Xie Xuanqing's eyes and brows, and he didn't seem to see anything unusual.
Zhou Songyun looked at their faces, then turned around and led them inside.
After passing through several corridors, Zhou Songyun finally stopped outside an office that looked extremely hidden.
Reaching out and knocking on the door, Zhou Songyun said, "Minister, Master Rong Tian and Patriarch Xie are here."
——"Come in."
A soft but majestic voice came from inside, and Rong Jing almost instantly realized that it was not Wei Yixing's voice.
The office door slowly opened. Xie Xuan glanced at Rong Jing and walked in first.
