Chapter 369 Head of Meeting

Old man Chen glanced at Jiang Ran and nodded slightly:

"I know what the young master is thinking.

"Isn't it true that Master?

"It's a pity...Miss Qingyang was extremely injured at the time, and there was no way she could survive.

"Young Master, please don't worry too much about this. It will cause you to worry too much."

Jiang Ran lowered his head slightly, took a sip from the tea cup, and moistened his throat slightly:

"Have you ever looked for the old drunkard since then?"

"Looking for it."

Old man Chen smiled bitterly:

"But the search didn't take long, because after that, we discovered that you, the young master, were ill.

"My master has traveled all over the world to collect rare treasures for you, hoping to heal your body..."

Jiang Ran also knew what happened after that.

Just when he said this, he suddenly thought of something:

"What is the relationship between the old drunkard and Huanshi Hailou?"

That night in Jinyang Mansion, apart from Zuo Zun who abandoned Tianyue and Tianshang Que, there was the little old man from Huanshi Hailou.

This person has superb illusion skills, which are completely different from the demonic thoughts and other methods used by the demon sect.

You can deceive your eyes inadvertently and change the day.

At that time, Jiang Ran and the old drunkard's attention was focused on the two deities on the left and right of Tianshang Que. When this person came to them, neither the master nor the disciple noticed it.

Although if Jiang Ran knew that the person from Huanshi Hailou was around and was on guard, he would not be blinded by it.

But even so, having such an ability is enough to frighten people.

However, the real point was to save the eldest princess and her group that night.

The old drunkard left without saying goodbye, taking with him the little old man from Huanshihailou.

This doesn't allow Jiang Ran to think about it more.

However, Huanshi Hailou is extremely mysterious.

Ever since the old drunkard broke into the Fantasy Sea Tower alone until now, they have never been able to hide it.

If it were said, they really had some secret relationship with the old drunkard that no one else knew about.

That's not so much that Qi Tianyue found them and joined forces to deal with the old drunkard.

It would be better to say that Huanshi Hailou showed up on his own initiative and used them to find the old drunkard.

After hearing Jiang Ran's words, Mr. Chen did not answer.

Instead, he fell into silence for a long time.

Jiang Ran was not in a hurry, just sat there and waited quietly.

Seeing the streets becoming lively, the tea in the cup became cold.

Old man Chen then slowly said:

"Young Master, please forgive me. This old slave has been struggling with this matter for many times. I really don't know whether I should discuss it with the Young Master in detail.

"Judging from the current situation of the young master, the master must have never said much to the young master.

"Even so, I don't dare to talk nonsense."

Jiang Ran was not angry when he heard this, but laughed:

"So, there is indeed some connection between the old drunkard and Huanshi Hailou.

"You are hiding something from me...are you worried that I won't be able to face the danger?"

"This old slave doesn't know what his master is thinking."

Old man Chen lowered his head slightly.

"That's all."

Jiang Ran waved his hand gently:

"I won't embarrass you, old man, let's talk about this matter here...

"But I have a question for you."

"Young Master, please speak."

"Is the old drunkard facing a blood cicada?"

Jiang Ran spoke slowly.

Old man Chen hesitated for a moment, and finally said three words:

"Not just."

"really……"

Jiang Ran stood up and said:

"That person helped me spot it, and now every clue is crucial to me.

"This person can die with no bones left, but he will never show up in front of others."

"Old slave understands."

Old man Chen bowed slightly.

Jiang Ran smiled and said:

"That's it, I'll leave first. There's still a while at the Shanhai Meeting tonight, but I don't have time to come here.

"I'll come back tomorrow."

"Congratulations to the young master."

As soon as Mr. Chen finished speaking, Jiang Ran's figure had disappeared from the window.

The room fell into silence. After a long time, Old Man Chen sighed softly:

"Young Master has a good future.

"Master...are you worrying too much?"

I asked this question without expecting any reply.

Just because there was no one else in the room except him.

After pondering over and over again, he took out his pen, ink, paper and inkstone and wrote a letter. However, after finishing the letter, he did not send it away by any means.

Instead, put it on the table and watch it quietly.

After looking at it for about a cup of tea, he shook his head slightly, took the letter in his hand, and with an inner force, the letter immediately ignited without fire.

It wasn't until he was completely reduced to ashes that he waved his sleeves to disperse the green smoke that filled the room.

Get up, open the door, and get ready to make a living.

……

……

Jiang Ran sat on a roof and looked at Langhuan Bookstore quietly for a long time.

Until three poles high in the sun, I didn't expect anything.

Finally sighed:

“Is there no contact… or do you not want to contact me?

"Old drunkard, old drunkard, where have you gone?

“Since it’s not just Blood Cicada, do you have to come to collect debts from all the masters from the five countries?

"What role does Huanshi Hailou play in this?

"Old man Chen's silence is an answer.

"Unfortunately, this answer is still too shallow...

"Fortunately, I seem to be walking on a fairly correct road now. If I continue walking along this road, I should be able to see you, right?"

He clapped his hands gently, turned over and stood up, spread out his body skills, and returned to the princess' mansion.

In the princess's mansion, everything is as usual.

When Jiang Ran came back, it was lunch time.

There was laughter in the venue.

Jiang Ran glanced at the eldest princess sitting at the top, who was also smiling wildly, and was a little confused for a moment.

Upon asking, it turned out that it was a joke that Tang Huayi made when he first came to the capital.

She proposed at that time that she would go to the palace to steal the food cooked by the imperial chef and serve Jiang Ran with wine.

Jiang Ran certainly didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

As a result, the eldest princess finally found time to have dinner with them today, so she treated the matter as gossip.

They are all a bunch of fools anyway, why do they care about imperial power and wealth?

The eldest princess has long been accustomed to their lawlessness.

But after listening, he said with a strange expression:

"If you want to eat the food cooked by the royal chef, why go to the palace?

"The cooks in the princess's palace are all royal chefs... Tell me what you want to eat, and I will go and ask the emperor for a cook. Why steal it?"

After saying this, everyone present was speechless.

Then he laughed out loud.

Tang Huayi pretended to be Jiang Ran at that time, so she couldn't be embarrassed. Otherwise, how could she be willing to lose such a big person without showing off her teeth and claws?

Jiang Ran also smiled after hearing the cause and effect.

But he got down to business right away.

There were all people he trusted, except for Yan Wushuang, who was not sure. But because the matter had something to do with her, Jiang Ran did not hide anything and just told what happened last night. Again.

Yan Wushuang's hands shook when he heard that Changsun Wuji was originally from Xiaochunzhuang in Li country.

The cup in his hand almost fell on the table.

He looked up at Jiang Ran, wanting to ask for proof.

Jiang Ran, however, kept to himself and repeated Wu Qianzhong's words.

"This is impossible……"

Yan Wushuang subconsciously said:

"He...how could he...this is wrong."

But she couldn't tell what was wrong.

Subconsciously, he wanted to deny it, but what Jiang Ran said was reasonable.

Her parents died, which was a bit strange.

Changsun Wuji said that he was knocked unconscious as soon as he made a move, and when he woke up, everything should have settled.

Then no one would doubt his words.

But now that I think about it, he is the weakest in martial arts. If he was really hit, how could it be as simple as just knocking him unconscious?

How could the other party leave such a large number of people alive if they deliberately attacked and killed them?

After all, Baizhen Club is definitely not someone to be trifled with.

Letting his eldest grandson Wuji go back would definitely bring endless trouble to his family.

As a result, Changsun Wuji went back like this.

And because he didn't know anything about it, Yan Lingshan had no choice but to go to Liguo in person to find his enemy.

As a result, he was severely beaten by Qiu Ye and was dying.

If all of this is not a coincidence, but a carefully laid trap, then everything that was originally unreasonable will make sense.

But such a heavy truth made Yan Wushuang breathless.

She looked up at Jiang Ran, who was still talking, but she didn't hear a word of what he said next.

Jiang Ran kept repeating all the names and lists that Wu Qianzhong revealed before he stopped talking.

The eldest princess was sweating on her forehead:

"Is this list serious?"

“It’s mixed true and false, the specifics depends on how the eldest princess makes her choice.

"And how the Holy One decides."

"You can't tell your brother this matter..."

The eldest princess slowly closed her eyes and said softly:

"Sneaked into the night wind, moisten things silently.

"The blood cicada's roots must take root on both sides of the rivers, lakes and courts. It is indeed not an empty talk.

"But if everything written here is true...then is the current Sword Holding Department the Jin Chan's Sword Holding Department, or the Blood Chan's Sword Holding Department?"

Jiang Ran looked at the eldest princess with some sympathy.

This also reminded him of the S.H.I.E.L.D. in Marvel...     Hydra's S.H.I.E.L.D. branch.

The entire S.H.I.E.L.D., from top to bottom, has been infiltrated by Hydra.

When it comes to the eldest princess, the situation is similar.

It can be regarded as a branch of the Blood Chan Sword Holding Department.

Fortunately, although the framework of the Sword Holding Division has been established, it is not too rooted in the court.

Regarding the Jianghu, they also recruited a group of people to beat and kill a group of people, but they did not fight to the end with one hammer.

The methods are soft and the progress of all parties is not fast.

Therefore, the influence is also limited.

Even if Xue Chan completely occupied the Sword Holding Division, it would not be enough if he wanted to use this to cause trouble.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ran said:

“Eldest Princess, don’t panic yet.

"Xue Chan's mouth is very tough, although I had someone to help me and pried open that person's mouth.

“But what that person said cannot be fully believed.

“Further confirmation is needed.

“In other words, although there are blood cicada masters in the sword-holding department, not everyone obeys their orders.

"Dao Wuming is a living example."

The eldest princess was slightly excited after hearing this:

"You're right.

"Now what he gives is a basket of sand. You have to sift carefully to know which ones are stones and which ones are fine sand!"

Jiang Ran glanced at the eldest princess:

"Got an idea?"

The eldest princess smiled slightly:

"If I tell you, will you help me make the calculation?"

"tell me the story."

"I plan to divide them and start a fight between them."

Jiang Ran picked up the chopsticks. After he finished speaking, he could start eating.

He picked up a piece of meat that he didn't know what it was and stuffed it into his mouth.

The eldest princess said:

“My approach is a bit bold.

"The first thing is to announce a news in the Sword Holding Department...

"Let's just say that there is a lawless organization in Jin Chan, which is rooted in imperial power, but wants to transcend imperial power.

“This group of people is secretive and powerful.

"Fortunately, there are some of their people in the Sword Holding Department, who have been instigated by me to rebel, so that I can catch them."

"You're just taking a false shot..."

After Tang Huayi heard this, he thought for a moment and said:

“There is no mention of blood cicada in every word, but blood cicada in every sentence.

“The so-called instigation of rebellion gives them a target.

"They may be more anxious than you are to find the person you instigated."

"Yes."

The eldest princess smiled and said:

"Then I will meet one person on this list every day.

“If you are lucky, the first one is selected, and you only need to secretly monitor this person to conduct the first sand screening.

“If you are unlucky, there is no problem with the first person you choose.

"It's just a combination of fiction and reality. As long as the person you meet for the second or even third time is really the one in the blood cicada, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of others.

“In this way, pull out the carrot and bring out the mud.

"Coupled with Daxia Jiang's interrogation method... although it may not be possible to completely eliminate the Xue Cicada's minions in the Sword Holding Department.

"But it will definitely clear up a pure land within the Sword Holding Division."

Jiang Ran nodded thoughtfully:

"This method is good and can be used. However, it may also arouse the blood cicada's vigilance...

“However, the eldest princess is their target.

"As the saying goes, if there are too many lice, there will be no itching. If there are too many debts, there will be no worries.

“It’s not like it’s all a plan.

"But there is one more thing...you must not describe the blood cicada's characteristics so clearly.

“It needs to make them feel like it, but also plausible.

“Finally, I’ll think of some excuses to cover up the matter.

"Lest the bloody cicada turn into a startling cicada.

"That would be a bit disadvantageous for us."

"Ah."

The eldest princess nodded:

"That's what we'll do?"

"Well, you can use it first."

Jiang Ran thought for a while and said:

"However, there should be Xue Chan's more important bargaining chip in the court, otherwise it would be difficult for these people to cover the sky with one hand.

"Wu Qianzhong is just a bloody cicada.

“Even if we understand some secrets, I’m afraid it’s impossible to know them all.

“Therefore, you need to take one step at a time and look at the next three steps to prevent the other party from taking the initiative.

"Of course, the matters within the court will be left to the eldest princess.

"I'm just a layman in this regard. I don't have any suggestions other than these."

"I understand."

The eldest princess nodded, and when she was full, she stood up and prepared to go out to do things.

Jiang Ran took a few mouthfuls of rice, chatting and laughing casually and poetically, Jingshuang Jingxue.

He only occasionally raised his head to look at Yan Wushuang's pale face, and sighed for a moment.

After lunch was finished and everyone took a rest, Jiang Ran found Yan Wushuang.

In the room, Yan Wushuang sat there in a daze.

She didn't even react when Jiang Ran came in.

It wasn't until Jiang Ran picked up the pot and poured tea that she said:

"Dad, he was born very tall. Every time I look up at him, I feel like he is a mountain.

"Mom likes to laugh...and has a good temper.

“No matter how I lose my temper or lose my temper, she never gets angry.

"Think of ways to make me happy.

“I never felt happy when they were all around.

“It wasn’t until they passed away that I realized what I had.

"They never thought that because I was a woman, I should get married and have children, and be a husband and raise children.

"My father taught me martial arts and wanted me to make a difference in the world.

"My mother asked me about female celebrities. When she saw that I was not happy, she never mentioned it again.

“Grandpa single-handedly founded the Baizhen Society and accommodated all of us.

"Only after they left did I know the ideals and purpose of the Baizhen Society.

“Take the world’s wealth and benefit all people.

“Take it from the people and use it for the people.

“Only in this way can the country become rich and the people strong.

“I have inherited this ideal and value Baek Jin Hui more than anything else.

“Everything we do is based on the position of the Baizhen Society.

“And over the years, the position of the Baizhen Society has actually been Changsun Wuji’s position...

"It's really ridiculous, as their daughter.

"But I never knew that I was always by the thieves' side.

"He still thinks that everything he does is for Baizhenhui!"

Speaking of this, she looked at Jiang Ran:

"You think, am I ridiculous?"

"If you know all this and still make such a choice, then you are indeed ridiculous.

"But if you were deceived, what's so funny?

“The one you should hate and blame is not yourself.

"But those who deceive gods and ghosts, hurt you, and whitewash themselves with the excuse of 'I am doing it for your own good.'"

Jiang Ran pushed the teacup in front of Yan Wushuang:

“Feeling sorry for yourself here now won’t change anything.

“Li Guo’s Xiaochun Village is right there.

“This is where all the tragedy comes from.

"The Baizhen Society is right in front of you...

"You still have important things to do.

"Waiting for you to do all this well, stabilize the Baizhen Society, regain power, and let the Baizhen Society continue to move forward according to the trajectory set by your grandfather.

"Then it's time to consider revenge."

Yan Wushuang took a deep breath:

"You're right...it's funny to say that at my age, I still don't see things as clearly as you do."

"How old?"

Jiang Ran glanced at her:

"Dare you ask Gui Geng?"

"……Do not want to tell you."

Yan Wushuang smiled and said:

"She's older than you anyway, so just call her sister."

"I have avenged part of your revenge, shouldn't you call me a benefactor?

"You want me to call you sister? Where is the justice? Where is the conscience? Where is the justice?"

"I won't bullshit you anymore."

Yan Wushuang rolled his eyes at Jiang Ran:

"When can I leave here?"

"Now is the time."

Jiang Ran said:

"They attacked Baizhen Tower last night, and now the Baizhen Club is in ruins.

“The disappearance of the eldest grandson Wuji... it’s time for you to take over the election again.

"Go back, Yan Huishou."
