"I will immediately arrange for the servants to prepare lunch. Sir, please stay in my Shenhou Mansion for lunch today..."
"The Divine Marquis has invited me so kindly that I would be disrespectful to refuse."
Without much thought, Jiang Che agreed directly.
Zhuge Zhengwo has already been very humble, so he must give him this little face. Anyway, he doesn't have anything important to deal with today.
If you just refuse, you would be really ungrateful.
…………
At Zhuge Zhengwo's command, all the servants in the Shenhou Mansion got busy and began to prepare lunch carefully.
A piece of news came out from the Shenhou Mansion, which directly shocked countless dignitaries in the entire Bianliang City.
The most famous detective in Bianliang City, Chief Constable Wuqing, who was admired by countless women, was actually a stunning beauty disguised as a man!
The news spread throughout Bianliang, causing countless ladies from prominent families, including the women who had secretly fallen in love with the ruthless man, to burst into tears and feel heartbroken.
The news that the exiled immortal had returned to the Song Dynasty and was now in the Shenhou Mansion had also spread.
This news is far more explosive than the fact that Wuqing is a girl!
After the autumn, a million-strong army of the Northern Yuan Dynasty marched south with the intention of taking Xiangyang directly.
It just so happened that the exiled immortal returned to the Song Dynasty at this time, and even appeared in the Shenhou Mansion in Bianliang City. The meaning of this is intriguing.
Many old monsters speculated that Jiang Che wanted to help the Song court fight against the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
In this way, some old guys who remained neutral will have to make a new choice.
Judging from the strength Jiang Che has shown so far, the other party at least possesses strength comparable to that of a peak terrestrial immortal, and behind Jiang Che are Tianzong and Xueyue City.
Let’s not talk about Xueyue City for now. The Tianzong is now filled with masters and talented people.
Especially after Jiang Che took charge of the three religions, the Tianzong sect continued to pass on the immortal arts and flourished.
If one wants to make friends with Jiang Che, it would be a wise choice to take the initiative to join the Song Dynasty's fight against the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
Even if he couldn't join the Song Dynasty's camp, he absolutely couldn't go against Jiang Che.
The situation gradually began to favor the Song Dynasty, just because of Jiang Che's appearance.
Shenhou Mansion
It was noon and the sun was shining brightly.
In the highest-standard reception hall of Shenhou Mansion.
Countless maids with slim figures were carrying exquisite dishes to the dining table deep in the hall.
"Sir, please..."
After the maid had placed all the dishes on the table, Zhuge Zhengwo invited us.
"Go get my treasured daughter's red wine!"
"Today I want to have a good drink with you, sir..."
After the maid brought thirty jars of the treasured daughter's red wine, Zhuge Zhengwo personally poured a glass for Jiang Che.
Because it was a family dinner and Zhuge Zhengwo had no children or descendants, there were only Jiang Che and six others at the table.
"Sir, please..."
Fill a glass for yourself, Zhuge Zhengwo raises his glass to invite you.
"God, please..."
Jiang Che didn't refuse and drank it in one gulp.
When it comes to drinking capacity, even Baili Dongjun, the old drunkard, is not afraid of him, so he naturally won't be afraid of Zhuge Zhengwo.
Although Zhuge Zhengwo held a high position, was very tactful in his dealings with others, and had a good alcohol tolerance, there was still a big gap between him and Baili Dongjun.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
The atmosphere at the scene gradually began to heat up, and even Wuqing drank a lot of wine.
"May the Divine Marquis have something to hide, but you can tell me..."
Jiang Che finished the wine in the glass in one gulp, then refilled his own glass and looked at Zhuge Zhengwo strangely.
He had noticed that the old man had been hesitating and hesitant to speak since a quarter of an hour ago.
It seemed like he had something to say to himself, but didn't know how to start.
"hehe…"
"In that case, I will speak frankly..."
Zhuge Zhengwo smiled awkwardly, drank the wine in the glass, and then spoke thoughtfully.
"This is what happened..."
"The current emperor heard that you have entered Bianliang and wanted to invite you to the palace for a chat..."
"That's why you asked me to ask you, sir, if you have time recently?"
The exiled immortal was from the Great Song Dynasty. Everyone who had heard of Jiang Che's name knew this. After all, he was once dubbed "the most handsome man in the Great Song Dynasty."
Zhao Zhen, who was in power, naturally also heard the news.
After hearing that Jiang Che had returned to Song and was in Bianliang, she couldn't wait to invite Jiang Che into the palace.
0 .. 0
Jiang Che's ability is obvious to everyone.
Putting aside the mysterious art of calling the wind and rain, Jiang Che's strength cannot be underestimated by any emperor of any dynasty.
With the strength of a peak earthly immortal, it would be extremely difficult to destroy an empire.
The so-called million-strong army cannot trap such a person.
The forbidden area deep in the palace was like a deserted place to them; they could go there when they wanted and leave when they wanted.
Such a person is almost a living human myth. No matter where he goes, he will be treated as a guest of honor, and all major dynasties dare not offend him easily.
A celestial warrior can break tens of thousands of armors with a full-strength attack, a celestial being can break one hundred thousand armors, and an immortal on land can kill three hundred thousand with one sword. Destroying a city is like a piece of cake.
If it weren't for the fact that the emperor of the world was protected by the true dragon's luck, warriors would have been unable to resist this force. In addition, the royal palaces of various countries had trained countless masters, and the entire Shenzhou would have been in chaos long ago.
This is also the reason why even though the Northern Yuan Dynasty had many masters, they could not directly send people to assassinate Zhao Zhen. They could only plunder and encroach on the territory of the Song Dynasty to gradually reduce the fortune of the Song Dynasty.
When the moment comes that the mountains and rivers are shattered, all the true dragon luck in Zhao Zhen will disappear completely and can be destroyed at will.
No matter how foolish Zhao Zhen was, he knew that he could never afford to offend someone like Jiang Che, and that he could only befriend him.
Of course, he is not that stupid.
There is no harm without comparison. Compared with previous Song emperors, he is considered good.
…………
ps: In the world of high martial arts and low mystical, the immortals on land are not weak anymore.
275: Capture Shao Siming
"Zhao Zhen invites me to the palace for a chat?"
After listening to Zhuge Zhengwo's story, Jiang Che frowned unconsciously and refused without thinking.
"Please tell Zhao Zhen that I have been busy with trivial matters recently and may not have time to enter the palace."
The words were spoken in a rather tactful manner, giving Zhao Zhen some face.
Although he agreed to help the Song Dynasty resist the invasion of the Northern Yuan Dynasty this time, it was all for Huang Shang's sake and had nothing to do with Zhao Zhen.
Jiang Che also didn't want to have too much interaction with these dynasties. After all, he had never thought about being granted a title of nobility or becoming a prime minister, nor did he have the idea of becoming an emperor himself.
The court and the underworld are clearly separated and have always kept their distance from each other.
If you have too much entanglement with the court, it will not be a good thing after all.
"In that case, that's it..."
"Sir, please, let's continue..."
Zhuge Zhengwo smiled awkwardly and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, not mentioning the pilgrimage to the palace at all.
Although Jiang Che's words were euphemistic, as a veteran official and a shrewd man who had lived for seventy years, how could Zhuge Zhengwo not understand what Jiang Che meant?
The other party simply doesn't want to have too much interaction with the court.
Although I felt it was a pity, Zhuge Zhengwo was also helpless.
Jiang Che didn't want to, so he naturally didn't dare to say anything more.
There is still a trace of goodwill between the two of them. If they continue to persuade each other, I am afraid that this trace of goodwill will be gone.
Putting aside the matter of the pilgrimage to the palace, Zhuge Zhengwo chatted a lot with Jiang Che.
Astronomy and geography, humanities, agricultural roads and water conservancy, the I Ching and the Eight Trigrams.
We talked about everything from the south to the north, starting from the Song Dynasty to analyze the situation between the major dynasties and the central points of mutual checks and balances.
The more I get to know Jiang Che, the more I admire him.
Even if we put aside his own almost unrivaled strength, Jiang Che's experience, conversation, and profound knowledge are by no means comparable to that of ordinary people, which is obvious.
If the Song Dynasty could get help from this person, it would have no problem wiping out the Liao, Western Xia, and Dali within three years.
Having one talented person in the country is better than having thousands of counselors.
Unfortunately, Jiang Che had no ambition to serve in the imperial court, so he could only think about these things.
…………
The family dinner lasted a long time, from noon to dusk, a full two and a half hours.
At dusk, the sun sets in the west.
Jiang Che drank the wine in the glass and then said goodbye and left.
Although he drank a lot of wine, he had a very good alcohol tolerance, so naturally there would be no problem.
Zhuge Zheng wanted to stand up and see him off, but was dissuaded by Jiang Che.
"Mr. Jiang is really a strange man..."
Seeing Jiang Che's departing back, Wuqing spoke with some emotion.
It is hard to imagine that an eighteen-year-old boy could know so much.
Astronomy and geography, humanities, agricultural roads and water conservancy, the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams, Qi Men Dun Jia, the I Ching and Zhou Yi, the situations of various countries, and the forces of the underworld.
He is proficient in everything.
Such a versatile person, and so young.
Jiang Che is definitely the only one she has seen in all these years, without exception.
She was a little confused. She didn't understand how Jiang Che knew so much knowledge at such a young age, and also possessed miraculous medical skills and such a formidable strength.
A man who is infinitely close to perfection.
This is Wuqing's evaluation of Jiang Che in his heart. It is very objective, at least it seems to be so on the surface.
"It's a pity that such people are not interested in the court..."
"The imperial palace of the Song Dynasty is too small to accommodate this huge Buddha..."
Zhuge Zhengwo nodded in agreement and sighed.
After a whole afternoon of conversation, Zhuge Zhengwo had a certain understanding of Jiang Che's thoughts.
Such people are used to living a carefree life and it is impossible for them to serve as officials in the court and be bound by others for no reason.
…………
After leaving the Shenhou Mansion, Jiang Che headed straight for his villa in Bianliang, bathed in the setting sun.
A quarter of an hour later, in the villa.
When Jiang Che returned, the young cook Huang Rong had already prepared a sumptuous dinner.
