Chapter 439 Some trivial matters

"After all, it deserves to be the capital of the Qing Kingdom, and its prosperity is far beyond ordinary."

Ye Jingxue sighed softly as she looked at the bustling imperial capital with people coming and going in front of her.

Jiang Ran smiled when he heard this, his eyes swept over the pedestrians walking north and south on the street one by one, and his eyes narrowed slightly:

"The war has begun and the people have been displaced. Although there is prosperity in the imperial capital, there is worry on their faces.

"Besides, there are too many people on the streets, right?"

After hearing what Jiang Ran said, Chen Mu nodded:

“The war is urgent and there is no room for optimism.

“This journey you have been taking has been in secluded places in the mountains and wilderness.

"I don't know that there are already many displaced people rushing towards the imperial capital.

"The number of refugees is huge, and the Jin Chan thieves did not massacre the city after they took over.

"But after cutting off one hand of each of the young and strong people among the common people, they drove them all towards the imperial capital.

People who have nothing to eat, no clothes to cover their bodies, and are wandering between life and death, if they let go of their worries, they will also explode with unimaginable power.

However, Jin Chan, who is currently attacking the city, cut off the young man's hand before letting him go.

"If that doesn't work, we, the gangsters, can only unite as one and fight the national crisis together!"

Jiang Ran and his group had a large number of people, so an ordinary room was naturally not enough, so they built several courtyards in the back.

"This plan is very vicious."

"As the saying goes, do your best to obey fate, it's nothing more than that.

"Although it's not a hit, it's not far off."

A young man who puts on armor and a weapon is a soldier, but what if this young man loses a hand?

In this day and age, such an injury could be fatal.

"Without Qiuye's help, I'm afraid it would really be a matter of life and death.

And in a city in the midst of war, the people of the city may not be able to have enough to eat, so how can they waste food to save these useless people?

But if we don't save it... what we lose is the people's support.

"It's nothing more than an abandoned son."

What these refugees will end up doing is almost unimaginable.

Chen Mu sighed:

But generally speaking, few people will drive people out.

There are many real reasons, such as plundering supplies, fighting to support war, etc...

“The most important thing is, once you get Princess Jin Chan.

The importance is naturally self-evident.

"In this Jin Chan march, Guan Changqing used his troops like a god, and what he did was really hard to resist.

While talking, the group of people had arrived at an inn.

But when it comes to death, they are not dead. The people who are still alive are still their own family members. How can these old, young, women and children in the family abandon them so cruelly?

If you take them with you, not to mention slowing down the process, many people will develop high fever due to their injuries and eventually die on the road.

Chen Mu found the inn, saying it was a time-honored one.

One can imagine how important this thing is in the war.

After Jiang Ran suddenly realized, what followed was astonishment:

"Could it be that in the battle between Qing Kingdom and Jin Chan, Qing Kingdom will be completely defeated?"

The three armies must go ahead before the food and fodder arrive!

The massacre of a city is often not because the generals are really vicious and evil. If they don't kill people for a day, they will feel sleepless and foodless.

Jiang Ran was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly realized.

This is just one of them.

The eldest princess listened and shook her head:

"If Emperor Jin Chan really uses the eldest princess to divert your attention, then even if he catches her, what's the use?

Since ancient times, refugees have been the group of people most likely to cause riots.

Whenever news spreads to Qingguo, it is true that the Jinchan people are acting viciously, but it will inevitably make people feel sad.

Even if he met soldiers from his own country and came to a nearby city.

Inherent thoughts, after occupying the city, the people will naturally be one of the important resources.

"There will be a chance to negotiate with Jin Chan."

After all, a young man who puts on armor and a spear and throws it on the battlefield becomes a soldier.

Looking at such a group of old, young, women, and children, as well as young adults without palms, what else can they gain besides wasting food?

Save... If you don't get anything, it will be a waste of food stored in the city.

Driving the people away will most likely make you face more opponents in the near future.

"Therefore, now that we are walking near the imperial capital, we are not only wondering whether Jiang Ran will bring the eldest princess to the imperial capital, so that we can capture them if there is a chance.

Chen Mu shook his head:

If your own country does not accept it and the enemy country drives you away, there will be no place for a cone between heaven and earth.

Chen Mu said that this plan is very poisonous, so it should be done here.

In this era, population is productivity.

After everyone checked in, Jiang Ran packed his things and asked Luo Qingyi to inquire about the news outside.

As a result, Luo Qingyi came back in a hurry after not finishing all the things.

Looking at Jiang Ran, he hesitated to speak for a moment.

Jiang Ran glanced at him in confusion:

"what happened?"

"..."

Luo Qingyi was silent, and finally scratched his head and said:

"There is news, I don't know whether I should tell it..."

"If you have news, tell it. If there is no news, don't tell it. What do you mean by whether you should tell it or not?"

Jiang Ran smiled:

"Are you worried about me?"

"...Qing Yi doesn't dare."

"Don't dare, not don't."

Jiang Ran smiled:

"It seems that Guo Chong treats you differently.

"You have been with me for so long and you can't completely trust me."

"Master!?"

Luo Qingyi was stunned and looked at Jiang Ran in astonishment.

Jiang Ran smiled:

"You don't think I don't know, do you?

"Guo Chong asked you to stay with me probably because the Tang family in Cangzhou Prefecture was empty overnight.

"So he's suspicious of me?"

In fact, since Jiang Ran used Tang Shiqing's martial arts that night to deal with the killers who pretended to be Jiang Ran and his group, Jiang Ran knew that Luo Qingyi had been with him for so long, and he was finally sure that Guo Chong's suspicion at that time was right. Yes.

But, he never said it.

Jiang Ran didn't bother to say anything.

Seeing that he was hesitant today, I simply helped him make up his mind.

Luo Qingyi's expression changed drastically, and finally he sighed deeply and plopped his money on the ground:

"It's Qing Yi who can't bear with you, Master."

"Strange."

Jiang Ran looked at him dumbfounded:

"Did you do something sorry for me?"

"No no!"

Luo Qingyi shook his head repeatedly: "I didn't even tell Guo Chong about your relationship with the Demon Cult.

“Once we were in Qing Country, the news couldn’t get through.

"Secondly...I have been hesitating whether to say...

"Young Master treats me with great kindness. If it were not Young Master, blood revenge would be difficult to avenge.

“And after following the young master for such a long time, the young master has always treated me well.

“Even the most treasured treasure in the world, the Twelve Heavenly Skillful Star Pickers, is given to me at will.

"Even if Qing Yi repays this kindness with his life, it will not be enough.

"What's more, along the way, I've seen the young master's behavior, although it can't be said to be aboveboard, nor can it be said to be kind and virtuous...

“But… after all, I still have my chivalrous heart.

"I will go through fire and water for the golden cicada..."

"Alright, alright."

Jiang Ran waved his hand and looked at his clumsy tongue. He tried his best to say the four-character idiom he knew, so he could only say:

"Since you're not sorry for me, why do you say you're sorry for me?"

"...Qing Yi hid the secret from the young master and never explained the friendship between Guo Chong and me."

"I've known about this for a long time."

Jiang Ran smiled:

"You still remember that after the Wan family incident, I went to Guo Chong to ask for my silver reward.

"You were standing behind the screen at that time, wouldn't you think that I didn't even notice this?"

"……what?"

Luo Qingyi was stunned and looked at Jiang Ran:

"Young Master already knew at that time...

"This...why does the young master still allow me to follow you?"

"It's a long story."

Jiang Ran scratched his head:

“Speaking from the beginning, it seems a bit troublesome.

“To put it simply, I felt no guilt at that time.

“Whether you believe it or not, at that time I really felt that it was impossible for me to have anything to do with the Demonic Cult.

“So, although I don’t know what Guo Chong’s original purpose was.

“But he must have asked you to follow me because he had doubts about me.

“And what I do, I can’t tell anyone about.

"Of course I don't mind if you stay with me and act as a free thug and chef."

"..."

Luo Qingyi's face was full of astonishment:

"Then...did I make a mistake that night?"

"No."

Jiang Ran shook his head:

“What I used that day was indeed the martial arts of the Demon Cult.

"And he is a prodigy that the Demon Sect has only seen for a thousand years. He has practiced a unique martial arts, and its name is [The Great Method of Nirvana of Inner Demons]!" "Sir... the martial arts of the Demon Sect are treacherous and mysterious. No matter how powerful they are, please don't ask for them. Practice easily.

"The Qiu family has learned lessons from their mistakes... You must not be confused."

When Luo Qingyi heard this, his voice was full of urgency.

Jiang Ran smiled, thought for a moment and then sighed:

“So this matter is a long story.

"Qing Yi, you have been with me for a long time.

"There are some things I won't hide from you... Now that we have talked about this today, I will tell you. From now on, you can stay or leave as you like. I will never force you or kill you.

"Actually, my true identity is the young master of the Demon Sect.

"The son of Jiang Tianye, the former Demon Lord of the Demon Sect."

As soon as these words came out, Luo Qingyi suddenly had the urge to turn around and run away.

This is definitely a secret in the world!

The young master who has been following him has transformed from a martial arts hero to a young master of the Demon Sect.

Is this change too big?

Although Luo Qingyi saw the martial arts used by Jiang Ran that night, it must be related to the demon sect.

But I only thought that it was the time in Cangzhou Mansion that got Jiang Ran involved with the Demon Cult.

Then he took a wrong step and fell into the devil's path.

Fortunately, the young master still behaved decently, so he was full of hesitation and didn't know what to do.

As a result, now...what is this?

The young master of the Demon Cult?

The future Demon Lord?

When did he get involved with such a big shot?

Seeing Luo Qingyi's face collapsed, Jiang Ran immediately comforted him softly:

"It's okay, Qing Yi is not afraid.

"Actually, to be honest, when I heard the news, although there was no expression on my face, my mood was similar to yours now.

"I have been an ordinary person for twenty years, or I can say that I am a dying person after twenty years of work.

“Suddenly I discovered that I actually had a huge origin.

“Anyone would find it incredible.

"And when I knew about this, it wasn't much earlier than you...

"Well, I found out when I was in Jinyang Mansion."

"……What's going on?"

Luo Qingyi looked at Jiang Ran:

"Master... I, my mind is very confused right now... Is this how you told me about this matter?

"If it were me, if I told the eldest princess about this matter, what would you do?"

"Just tell me."

Jiang Ran smiled hoarsely, and just as he said this, he suddenly heard the footsteps of the eldest princess coming from outside the door.

The voice didn't sound like he was here to find him, but he didn't care. With a wave of his hand, the door opened immediately.

Immediately after the eldest princess, she felt a suction coming from her, and she rushed towards Jiang Ran's room involuntarily.

Then Jiang Ran shook his hand again, and the door closed immediately.

The eldest princess looked at Jiang Ran with a confused look:

"What? Are you suddenly jealous?"

Looking back again, he found that Luo Qingyi was still kneeling on the ground, and he suddenly became even more confused:

"what happened to him?"

"I am the young master of the Demon Sect."

Jiang Ran said.

"……are you crazy?"

The eldest princess rolled her eyes.

Luo Qingyi sighed in his heart. Sure enough, no one believed it.

If the young master said this, the eldest princess would only take it as a joke.

At the same time, he was relieved. He really didn't know what to do if the eldest princess knew Jiang Ran's true identity.

Did Jiang Ran kill them to silence them, or was Jiang Ran restrained by demonic methods? From now on, you can't help yourself?

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard the eldest princess say:

“Didn’t I already know that you are a young master from the Demon Sect?

"Xue Chan told me that I just came to find you.

"You have admitted it even outside the capital, and my royal brother knows your identity... now you suddenly say... oh..."

Speaking of which, the eldest princess finally came to her senses and looked at Luo Qingyi:

"You don't know?"

"..."

Luo Qingyi's mouth was so big that he could almost swallow his head.

"Saliva, saliva!"

The eldest princess quickly reminded.

Luo Qingyi quickly closed her mouth:

"You...you actually know?

"Not only do you know, but even...even the Holy One knows?"

"I know."

The eldest princess plucked her fingers and said:

"It's not just the imperial brother, let me see, there was Yan Wushuang from Baizhenhui at that time, right?

“Of course, the man knows it doesn’t matter.

“She has a problem with your relationship after all.

"That night, you two suddenly disappeared together, don't think I don't know.

"Also, Shen Tulie from Shanhaihui is also present, and I heard you admit in person that you are the young master of the Demon Sect.

"Who else? By the way, Master Dao Que of Dao Yizong.

"The imperial advisor.

"And the hero Yi Jian Wu Sheng Sword Wu Sheng Sword...

"These people all know it, but you haven't told the person next to you yet? I thought he already knew it."

Jiang Ran rolled his eyes:

"I can't go around looking for people to say that I am a young master from the Demon Sect. Isn't this sick?"

"It's also..."

The eldest princess nodded:

"Okay, why did you bring me here? I thought you suddenly thought about it...

"It's boring. I'm going to find Chu Yunniang."

"Ok?"

Jiang Ran was stunned:

"What are you looking for her for?"

"He is a descendant of Chu Nanfeng!"

The eldest princess’s eyes sparkled:

"This is not an ordinary person. Although you have restrained her martial arts skills, if she can point out my sword skills, she might be able to capture you."

"...Then why don't you think about how I managed to capture her?"

Jiang Ran asked with a dark face.

"..."

The eldest princess thought for a while and then said:

"It doesn't matter. Stones from other mountains can attack jade, let alone jade from other mountains?

"However, I always feel that Chu Yunniang doesn't seem to care much about your identity as a young demon sect..."

"Does Madam Chu Yun know?"

Luo Qingyi's eyes suddenly widened.

You've been working on it for a long time, but you don't know?

It's as if I thought I had discovered a big secret.

No wonder no one raised any questions about Jiang Ran's martial arts after that night.

It turns out... everyone knows!

Moreover, Chu Yunniang is actually a descendant of Chu Nanfeng?

Who is Chu Nanfeng?

The number one person in the world a hundred years ago!

What kind of unique skill is the Nanfeng Hidden Sword Style?

Such a person was actually captured by Jiang Ran and used as a maid?

He thought that Chu Yunniang was rescued by Jiang Ran and had no choice but to act like a cow and a horse without any retribution. After doing this for a long time, that was not the case at all.

But this time, the eldest princess couldn't stand it anymore and said to Jiang Ran:

"That's too much. Everyone knows it, so why don't you tell them?"

"I originally wanted him to discover it on his own, and then I told him...he just found out a little clue, and I dragged it out?

"He was ordered by Guo Chong to investigate my background.

“As for Guo Chong, he obeys the orders of Marquis Wuwei.

"Marquis Wuwei is taking orders from the emperor again... It seems that everyone who comes and goes is one of our own?"

Jiang Ran looked at the eldest princess.

The eldest princess was silent for a moment, then nodded and said to Luo Qingyi:

"According to this statement, you are actually serving my royal brother.

"But the emperor has known about this for a long time, so you don't need to worry about it.

"Okay, you guys chat, I'll go see if I can trick Chu Yunniang into using the Southern Wind Hidden Sword Style."

"..."

Seeing the eldest princess leaving in a hurry, Luo Qingyi still felt that her head was buzzing.

what is this?

Isn't this all in vain?

After looking at Jiang Ran, he sighed:

"I see……"

"Well, that's pretty much it."

Jiang Ran said:

"Then are you going or staying? You can make a decision now."

Luo Qingyi couldn't laugh or cry:

"If the young master is willing to take him in, Qing Yi will naturally want to stay with the young master...

"I just don't know if Young Master is still willing to let Qing Yi serve you?"

"Of course I do."

Jiang Ran smiled:

"Don't worry about little things.

"By the way, I haven't asked you yet. What kind of information did you find out when you were so confused just now?

"I guess it has something to do with the Demon Cult?"

"Exactly."

Luo Qingyi felt that his mood seemed to be out of control for a while, but this was not the time to dwell on this matter.

Then he quickly said:

"It seems that the people from the Demon Cult have arrived in the capital, and I heard that they are going to gather in the capital.

"Many masters of the righteous path are waiting here. I want to take advantage of the day they gather to catch them all... in one fell swoop!"
