"You were only twelve."
Qi Qi shut up when he got to this point.
"Because Xiangyi listened to the rumors and believed that the skills of Su Nu Palace could keep people young forever, she set her sights on the skills and wanted to seize the master's internal energy. It was Lianyi who took action and killed all the people she sent.
Because of that fight, her heart meridian, which she had nurtured for twelve years, was almost completely broken. It was her master who used his inner strength to nurture her for a year, thus saving Lianyi's life."
Every time she talked about this, Wang Zhenzhen got very angry.
"I have fought with them and am familiar with their Kung Fu routines. I saw it when you fought the bandits in Qingshi Canyon. And they all seem to be led by you. The rest is not difficult to guess."
In order not to make Aunt Zhen sad, Lianyi immediately brought the topic back.
The two people behind Qi Qi could no longer maintain their calm expressions. They had just heard the first-hand news. It turned out that the person who had caused the annihilation of Dark Guard Group B was actually a twelve-year-old girl with a damaged heart. Her face was hit and it made a "pa pa" sound, which was a bit painful.
"You came to Longxi because of the rumor about the treasure, right? You teamed up with that group of people from the underworld for the treasure map. After getting the treasure map, what did you find?"
Ripple asked with a smile.
"She has a close connection with the late Wang Yingying of the Longxi Wang family."
Qi Qi told the truth, he finally understood that the other party invited him here, probably they had been prepared for it.
"Now that I have clarified your identity, I will talk about the other important matter I am meeting you for today."
Wu took a sip of tea and then spoke lightly.
"Please speak, old lady."
"Please tell His Majesty that my Longxi Wang family will do everything in our power to help His Majesty conquer the Mongol Kingdom and incorporate it into the territory of the Han Kingdom."
After these words were spoken, not only Qi Qi, but also the two people behind him were stunned.
"Madam is righteous, Qi Qi will definitely convey this message."
Qi Qi immediately stood up and saluted. The purpose of his coming to Longxi was to find the rumored treasure, and the purpose of finding the treasure was to fight. Now that he achieved his goal so easily, he was of course excited.
"But I have a request for you."
"Ma'am, please speak."
"I want Princess Xiangyi's life! The price is 70% of my Longxi Wang family's assets!"
Wu said decisively.
The two people behind Qi Qi took a deep breath. The Wang family was so bold that they actually wanted to kill the royal princess.
"Madam, if"
"You can say whatever you want. My Wang family is a business family. In our eyes, everything has a price. If you don't get it, it means the price is not enough. We can just increase it. Besides, it's a princess who is tarnishing the reputation of the royal family."
Wu said without changing her expression.
"Yes, I will definitely pass on the message."
"I know that you have said so much at once. You have doubts and need time to digest them, or even verify them. The Wang family is waiting for your good news."
After Wu finished speaking, she picked up the teacup, meaning to see the guest off.
Qi Qi was indeed bombarded by the news. He stood up and saluted, then looked at Lian Yi who was smiling, and then left the Wang family mansion with two guards.
After everyone left, Wu heaved a sigh of relief and said to Wang Yaohui, who was silent beside her:
"Yaohui, I have already dealt with the matters that I should be involved in. The rest is up to you. The future of the Wang family still depends on you as the helmsman."
"Yes, mother, I'm sorry to have made you worry!"
Wang Yaohui stepped forward and helped Wu up. Together with Wang Zhenzhen, they sent her back to the backyard. Then he went to see his father Wang Kun.
Lianyi also returned to Yingziyuan. She felt that according to the current development, she should be able to hide in Shijiu and find her.
After Qi Qi left Wang's house, he returned to the temporary courtyard and began to write a message, making sure to send the message back as soon as possible.
After releasing the carrier pigeon, Qi Qi turned around and said to the two secret guards who followed him:
"You must not reveal a single word of what you heard and saw today. Everything awaits the decision of His Majesty."
"We know."
The two men were not stupid. They knew that the water was too deep and too many things were involved. They both regretted following them.
After the two left, Qi Qi rubbed his brows and began to review what happened today when he went to Wang's house. He did not miss any details, and then he found that there was no need for the Wang family to lie to him.
Only then did he realize why His Majesty sent him to Longxi to carry out the mission. Although he wanted to avoid the vicious woman Xiangyi, His Majesty might be aware of his life experience, so he let him complete this task because he was the most suitable candidate.
"As expected of His Majesty, you have calculated everyone!"
Qi Qi sighed lightly and said to himself.
However, now he at least knows his background, his last name, who his parents are. He still has relatives in this world, and he is not alone. This feeling is very subtle.
Three days later, Qi Qi did not receive a reply from His Majesty, but received the news that Princess Xiangyi was about to arrive in Longxi.
The accompanying secret order also reached his hands first. Looking at the content of the secret order, Qi Qi's heart beat faster. He felt that his vision was too narrow after all. It was just as his grandmother Wu said, everything had a price. He didn't get it just because he didn't have enough chips. It was obvious that His Majesty wanted to sell Xiangyi for a good price.
He really is the grandson of the Wang family. This completely confirmed his guess. Qi Qi chuckled. He could live until now, perhaps because of his identity. Because he still has value, he is a bargaining chip in the hands of His Majesty, so he can return to Longxi.
After reading the secret order, Qi Qi sat in the room for the whole night in a daze. After dawn, he gathered his companions together, conveyed the secret order from His Majesty, arranged the next tasks, and then went to the Wang family with his visiting card.
Lianyi was a little surprised to receive Qi Qi's visiting card so quickly. At that time, she was pretending to be a lady and practicing calligraphy. After hearing what Yaozu said, she threw down the brush in her hand and went to the front yard.
The two people who met Qi Qi this time were Wang Yaohui and Wang Zhenzhen, so it was enough for Wu to show up once.
"Your Majesty agrees with the Wang family's proposal. Princess Xiangyi will arrive in Longxi in seven days. I will bring her here directly."
Qi Qi directly stated his purpose.
"Okay, during this time the Wang family will gather up the assets so that you can take them back to the Imperial City."
Wang Yaohui nodded. This was a deal, and they had at least some integrity.
“.”
Then there was a silence, and no one knew what to say. They were relatives, but they were also strangers and had different positions.
"Little brother, you're here! Got a reply so soon?"
Lianyi walked into the living room with a smile, breaking the silence in the room.
"Yes, sis!"
Qi Qi stuttered.
"Uncle, Aunt Zhen, have you finished talking about the matter? If you have, I will take you to my yard to sit for a while."
"We've finished talking, you guys can go now!"
Wang Yaohui waved his hand and then used his eyes to stop Yaozu who was about to join in the fun.
Lian Yi took Qi Qi to Ying Zi Courtyard. After they sat down, she smiled and said:
"This is the yard where my mother lived before she got married." (End of this chapter)
