Ying Wuji calculated that it had been quite some time, and asked in confusion: "Why is there nothing now..."
"He's waiting for you!"
Zhao Ning squeezed his palm and smiled, "Father said that if I left without your victory report, it would be unpleasant!"
Ying Wuji: “…”
He felt his head swollen, and for a moment he seemed to have lost the ability to think.
He just let Zhao Ning pull him inside.
I don't know how much time passed before I stopped.
The lights were bright in front of the jade coffin.
A woman with gray hair was quietly keeping vigil.
In just a few days, Xuan Ji looked much older, and her once jet-black and shiny hair had begun to fall out at her temples.
Hear footsteps.
She turned her head and looked at Ying Wuji, with a kind smile on her face: "Wuji, here you come!"
Ying Wuji's eyes were a little hot, and he bowed deeply to her: "Unfilial son Wuji, pays homage to the queen mother!"
"Get up, get up!"
Xuan Ji quickly helped him up, wiping her tears while laughing: "This is unfilial. You are a hero just like your father. You came back today to announce the good news. You shouldn't cry like this."
"Um!"
Ying Wuji nodded heavily and looked into the jade coffin, where Zhao Ji was lying quietly.
Today, he is no longer as haggard as the last time we met.
The Li royal family had a special undertaker to ensure that King Li would not die in an undignified manner.
At this moment, Zhao Ji looked kind yet dignified, lying quietly as if he was asleep. Ying Wuji even felt that he would sit up at any time, kick him in the butt, and say that he had scared his fish away again.
But this is the case.
It shouldn't happen.
Zhao Ji placed his hands on his chest, holding the secret letter he had given him that day. The letter contained all his confessions. At that time, he had asked him to open it when he had the intention to kill him, but the letter remained sealed until he left the State of Li.
Now it seems that he opened it and read it when he was dying.
Around the jade coffin, there is a source stone and a jade slip.
The source stone is of very high quality. It is mined from demon veins and is stored in the underground warehouse of the Prince's Mansion in Xinli City.
Judging from the shape of the jade slip, it was engraved by himself. During those days, he engraved a copy of everything he had learned and stored it in the same place as the source stone.
Zhao Ji lay quietly.
There was a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Xuan Ji smiled and said, "Your father said that his biggest regret in life was that he didn't have a son. He never thought that this wish would come true a few years before he stepped into the coffin. Throughout the ages, there have been so many kings, but no son could compare to him."
He has a son, but Zhao Qi is not worthy of being his son.
The relationship between father-in-law and son-in-law is short.
But it is enough.
Ying Wuji felt as if someone had hit his eyes twice, and a hot stream was coming out.
Xuan Ji chuckled: "But this is just his excuse. He told me to tell you this if you come back victorious."
Ying Wuji couldn't help but ask, "What about the other set?"
Xuan Ji: "You little bastard..."
I said half of it, but in the end I didn't say it out loud.
Ying Wuji: “…”
Xuan Ji laughed so hard at his expression, wiped her eyes, and then said, "You two should accompany your father. Mother is tired and will go back to sleep. Ning'er, don't stay up too late. Tomorrow is your father's funeral..."
After saying that.
Then he left as if escaping.
Ying Wuji let out a long breath, but he felt that the sourness in his eyes and nose could not dissipate.
Zhao Ning stood side by side with him, looking a little haggard, but smiling and pointing at the jade coffin: "Don't be sad, look at what's written on it?"
Ying Wuji looked carefully and saw only two lines of words written on it.
Thousands of ships pass by the sunken boat.
Behind the dead tree, all trees will bloom.
He smiled and said, "Our father is not a sick tree."
Zhao Ning nodded: "I don't think so either!"
The two looked at each other and smiled.
The atmosphere in front of the jade coffin became much more relaxed.
Zhao Ning smiled and said, "When my father left, he said that if you send a letter back after your great victory, you should burn the letter in front of his coffin. If you come back in person, you should tell him what happened."
"Um!"
Ying Wuji nodded and recounted the entire story of the great battle against demons.
When he talked about how awesome he was, he described it in such vivid detail that it was as if Zhao Ji was really listening.
Finally, he turned to look at Zhao Ning and told him his plan: "I have taken 15,000 copies of the resources of the Celestial Tribe. No one knows the inside story except Ji Dong. I only plan to keep 5,000 copies there, and the rest will be left in Li Country.
The demon blood crystals are distributed according to merit, and they are all open to the public. I can't take them back to the Li Kingdom. However, when setting up the formation, I know Zhao Du is more familiar with the formation, so I let the Li army be the main attacker, which should be enough to distribute a lot, and it is estimated that there will be more than ten thousand elite war horses. "
"Um!"
Zhao Ning smiled and said, "The speed at which the Li Kingdom is becoming richer is faster than I thought."
Soap and glass are two powerful weapons.
The new land has vast expanses of fertile land.
The demon vein provides a constant supply of cultivation resources.
There is also enough gunpowder to defeat all low-end combat forces...
Now there are more demon blood crystals and the cultivation resources of the celestial race.
Zhao Ning couldn't even imagine what kind of combat effectiveness the Kingdom of Li would have if a war really broke out in a few years.
She chuckled and looked at Ying Wuji: "Don't worry about those eight kids. Our officials in Xindi are quite familiar with the situation among the people. It is not difficult to find some ordinary families with open-minded parents for them. In short, I don't believe that there will be people who don't like the Li Kingdom."
Ying Wuji nodded: "Then it's designated!"
