After all the sacrifices have been made to speed pass, who is still practicing hard skills?

Chapter 395: Control the Queen! Play against the Emperor!
Jiang Che has never been a gentleman. He believes in revenge.

He knew that after the previous conflict, Ji Changsheng and his mother would definitely not be able to resolve their grievances with him, and he was not a man of clay who would endure being beaten up.

What he wants is a tooth for a tooth, blood for blood.

It was just that he had just arrived in the capital and the information channels had not yet been established. Although Chen Qingfang was helping him at the Heiya side, he could not fully guarantee that the other party would stand on his side.

Always looking for opportunities.

And now, he found it from Lu Jieyun's mouth.

As long as he can get something to control Ji Changsheng and his mother, he will make them regret provoking him.

Of course, there is one most important reason, which is that Jiang Che is preparing for the next sacrifice in advance.

Seeing Jiang Che agree to this matter, Lu Jieyun smiled. He knew that Jiang Che was not the type of person who would let go of grudges. Now it seems that it is true. It was worth it for him to reveal some secrets.

Yes, secret.

He had memories of the future and knew that Ji Changsheng would eventually lose and lose the qualification to compete for the throne, so before, he didn't care at all about Ji Changsheng's neglect of him.

Instead, there is some gloating.

As for why Ji Changsheng lost the qualification to compete for the throne, it was of course because of a scandal that broke out later, that is, Ji Changsheng's princess was actually a secret agent of the Qingtian Sect.

Regardless of whether Ji Changsheng had done anything detrimental to the interests of the court, once this scandal came out, he would have no chance of becoming emperor at all.

It's just that he originally didn't want to interfere in too many things, but in order to win over Jiang Che, he still gave it his all.

"Brother Jiang, don't be anxious. This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run. The Northern Barbarian envoy is now in the capital, so it is impossible to take action. There are too many strong people in the capital. Once we take action, you and I will not be able to leave.

The most appropriate time will come when they leave the capital and return to the Northern Barbarians."

There was a gleam in Lu Jieyun's eyes.

"If the Northern Barbarian envoys go back and hide their whereabouts, how can we track them down?"

It is impossible for Jiang Che to stay in the capital forever. He has his own things to do, and considering the time, there is still enough time.

"Leave this problem to me. I'll let you know when we can start."

The reason why Lu Jieyun joined the court, in addition to seeking asylum, was to have an identity to get involved in the upcoming great changes in the world, and because many things have changed.

He would not completely believe in the memories in his mind, and would try his best to figure out everything during this period of time.

Jiang Che nodded slightly, agreeing with Lu Jieyun's approach, and then said:
"Brother Lu asked about Senior Chixue just now. Could it be that he wants to find someone to deal with the two venerables among the Northern Barbarian envoys?" Jiang Che couldn't help but look at him and asked.

“Yes, among the Northern Barbarian envoys, except for Zagumu, the other two have the strength of the late Divine Aspect. It is difficult for ordinary people to plot and kill them. Brother Jiang, if you can invite a late Divine Aspect Venerable.

With the addition of the venerable on Lu's side, we can be absolutely safe."

Lu Jieyun doesn't trust many people in the capital, and Jiang Che is one of them who catches his eye. Although the relationship between the two is not close, he can feel some of Jiang Che's temperament.

It is precisely because he is sure that he does so.

Jiang Che suddenly understood.

At the same time, it also confirmed some of the guesses in my mind.

Lu Jieyun is indeed not an ordinary person. No wonder he was able to reject so many invitations before. This is entirely because he has the confidence and a venerable in the late stage of divine appearance as his backer.

He did have the confidence to refuse.

"The handle on Ji Changsheng and his mother that Brother Lu mentioned refers to..."

"I will keep this a secret for now. It is not appropriate to reveal it now. But don't worry, Brother Jiang. After this, whether it succeeds or not, I will hand over the news to you."

Lu Jieyun is not stupid, so it is impossible for him to reveal all his cards right now.

Jiang Che nodded when he heard this. Although he was a little disappointed, he could understand Lu Jieyun's thoughts. He could only put aside the idea of ​​controlling Ji Changsheng and his mother for the time being.

The Qingtian Sect branch.

The Sky Eagle Dharma King stood on a steep mountain with his hands behind his back, exuding an extremely fierce aura. Standing there, he looked like a ferocious beast.

Chu He stood behind him and bowed:

"Meet the King of France."

"The Purple Dragon Dharma King has sent a message. Jiang Che has already made an agreement with Yin Zhonghai to go to the True Dragon Ruins together in three days." Nangong Ji did not look back.

"real?!"

Chu He immediately showed joy on his face.

He had waited too long for this day, and he couldn't wait to make Jiang Che kneel before him, submit to him, admit defeat to him, and abdicate the shame he had once lost.

I got them all back one by one.

"I summoned you here because I am preparing to set off for the East China Sea."

"I see."

"However, you should not be careless. I think you have heard about the battle in the capital. The little prince of the Northern Barbarians, Zagumu, was defeated by Jiang Che in Yanglongtan.

Are you really confident that you can win?"

This time, Nangong Ji turned his gaze away, his eyes were unusually deep.

“The reason why Zagumu lost to Jiang Che was not because he was weak, but before Jiang Che made his move, Lu Jieyun had already fought him for a long time, and the battle almost ended in a draw.

Lu Jieyun was able to fight Zakumu to this extent, so I am not surprised that Jiang Che can win. "

Although Chu He didn't know Jiang Che's strength, he had personally experienced Lu Jieyun's methods. His overall evaluation was that he was okay and qualified to be his opponent, but he definitely wouldn't be able to last long in his hands.

Based on this inference, he had actually already roughly estimated Jiang Che's strength.

Of course, this does not mean that he underestimated Jiang Che. In fact, in order to be able to defeat Jiang Che head-on, he made a lot of preparations and even used some secret methods to forcibly improve his cultivation and strength.

Just in case.

Now, he felt that he was fully prepared.

As long as they fight, Jiang Che will be able to learn what a holy martial arts body is and what a true peerless genius is.

“Although I have not witnessed this battle, according to some gossip, Jiang Che has made great progress. Zagumu has entered the Central Plains from the northern border and has fought nearly ten battles without a single defeat.

It can be seen that he is very strong, but he still lost to Jiang Che. I suspect that he may have entered the state of unity between man and nature. When we fight, if you see that the situation is not right, you must withdraw immediately and don't act on impulse. "

Although the power of the Qingtian Sect in the capital is weak, it is not non-existent. Whenever Jiang Che takes action, people will speculate on some clues, and the state of unity between man and nature is one of them.

"Harmony between man and nature? How is that possible? Absolutely impossible!"

Chu He understood what the unity of man and nature meant, and he didn't believe that Jiang Che had such a terrifying understanding. He thought it was just a rumor. After all, Jiang Che had just entered the realm of the divine appearance not long ago.

It is almost impossible to achieve this. In comparison, he is more inclined to believe that Jiang Che just had a deeper understanding of the state of potential, which led some people to misjudge, rather than really stepping into the unity of man and nature.

"In this world, nothing is impossible. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't do it either. Chu He, you are the Holy Son of the Qingtian Sect. If you look down on an opponent who once defeated you,

Do you think there is still hope for you?"

Nangong Ji frowned, somewhat dissatisfied with Chu He's overconfidence.

As a warrior, you should overcome all obstacles and respect martial arts instead of despising it.

"I'm not feeling disdainful, I'm just confident that I can defeat him." Chu He stood behind Nangong Ji, his voice loud and clear, filled with extreme confidence.

"In that case, I would like to see if you really have this ability. Let's go. Follow me to the East China Sea." Nangong Ji had no intention of arguing.

Everything needs to be backed by strength.

The winner between Chu He and Jiang Che will be decided in one battle.

Beijing.

At this moment, many people are still immersed in the battle between Jiang Che and Zagumu. All kinds of news are spreading, pushing the aftermath of the battle to its peak.

Among them, the most uncomfortable people, apart from the Northern Barbarian envoys, were Ji Changsheng and his mother. Originally, Queen Xue wanted to weaken Jiang Che's position in the emperor's heart as much as possible through this battle.

But in the end, they ended up losing more than they gained. Jiang Che's performance in this battle was too perfect, which forced them to bury all their words and grievances in their hearts.

Coupled with the previous banquet incident, he became a laughing stock and a stepping stone for Jiang Che.

However, Jiang Che did not care too much about these. He already had the confidence to control the mother and son, so he would not waste too much energy on them.

After some time, everything will be settled.

In the Imperial Garden.

Jiang Che and Queen Xue exchanged glances, with a hint of coldness in their eyes. Xue Bai'er glanced at Jiang Che indifferently, raised her chin, and walked past Jiang Che with a dignified demeanor.

But in public, Jiang Che did not dare to be too presumptuous. He lowered his head and bowed.

Seeing this scene, Queen Xue curled her lips into a sneer.

No matter how talented you are or how great your reputation is, what does it matter?

Aren't you still bowing down before her?

The fragrant breeze brushed across his cheeks, but Jiang Che felt no emotion in his heart. He glanced at Queen Xue's plump back, narrowed his eyes, turned around and walked straight into the imperial garden.

At this moment, in the Imperial Garden.

Emperor Yuankang and his imperial teacher Yaoyue were playing chess in a solemn atmosphere.

"Your humble servant Jiang Che greets your majesty."

Jiang Che first bowed to Emperor Yuan Kang, then turned to Yao Yue who was standing beside him and bowed:
"I've met the Imperial Master."

Jiang Che's eyes swept over Yao Yue's appearance and he slowly lowered his eyes. He didn't keep staring at her, but a thought occurred to him that this imperial teacher was a little too beautiful.

His figure is okay, similar to Qi Ningbing's, but he has a face that could bring disaster to the country and the people, and his indifferent eyes seem to show he is not interested in anything.

This was the first time Jiang Che had seen Yao Yue. He had only heard of her name before but had never seen her in person. He thought it was a rumor or that she only received such great praise based on her identity.

But now he knew it was all true.

There is no boasting from the outside world.

No wonder the emperor did not enter the harem for twenty years, but instead concentrated on practicing Taoism with the imperial teacher. An ordinary emperor could not withstand such a test.

"Jiang Qing, please stand up."

Emperor Yuan Kang waved his hand, signaling the waiters around him to let Jiang Che sit down.

"Why do you want to go back suddenly?"

Ji Wenhao asked directly.

The reason why he summoned Jiang Che was because Jiang Che submitted a document saying that he wanted to go back.

"I have finished what I should do in the capital, but my wife is waiting for me in the south. I want to go back and bring them to live in the capital." This was naturally Jiang Che's excuse.

Otherwise it would be hard to explain why he suddenly wanted to go back.

It seemed as if the emperor did not give him authority.

Originally he wanted to leave quietly, but who knew that the emperor actually valued him so much and even summoned him to the palace for questioning.

Yao Yue's indifferent glance fell on Jiang Che. While examining him, she was also recalling some of Ji Chengdao's previous comments about Jiang Che, but there was no sign of abnormality on her surface.

"After you go back, you must hurry back as soon as possible. You are my right-hand man. If it weren't for you, it would be difficult for the court to face the provocation of the northern barbarian envoys."

"This is what I should do."

"By the way, I suddenly remembered something. When you took action yesterday, the pressure you exuded seemed familiar to me. Was it the dragon's power?" Emperor Yuankang asked casually.

It seemed normal, but his eyes were fixed on Jiang Che.

Seems to be able to see through it completely.

Jiang Che's heart moved, and he vaguely guessed that he might have violated some taboo, so he quickly explained:
"Your Majesty, the technique I practiced was the Xuantian Dragon Transformation Technique of Zhenhai Palace. I was lucky enough to refine some dragon blood, so I have a hint of dragon power."

"Oh I got it."

Emperor Yuan Kang nodded thoughtfully, and then asked:
"I have heard that you have a section of the dragon vein of Nanyue. Is this true?"

"Slander, Your Majesty, this is all slander from the South Vietnamese villains. I caused a great disturbance in South Vietnam, but South Vietnam could not do anything to me, so they used this method to frame me."

Emperor Yuankang is different from Ji Chengdao. The latter can see through him and his own strength is unfathomable. Although the former is also very powerful, his identity is the emperor.

He would never admit to owning it.

Emperor Yuankang smiled faintly, and under his robe, he transferred a trace of power into the jade seal, wanting to use it to test Jiang Che. The dragon vein is the result of the convergence of national destiny.

It is related to the imperial seal, which is an object that suppresses the country's destiny.

As long as Jiang Che carries it with him, no matter what is blocking it, it can be sensed. This is also the most important reason why he specifically summoned Jiang Che, but it only lasted for several breaths.

There was no movement of the jade seal.

He couldn't help but frown slightly, thinking that he might have guessed wrong. His eyes moved and he smiled as usual:
"You don't need to explain, Marquis Guanjun. I trust you. I just asked you casually. Come and play a game with me, so I can see how good you are at chess."
