Fish swimming around the world

So Mr. Jiang decisively decided to change the topic.

"Jiuli is an accident, but Baiqu is not. Why have you kept this young man for so many years?"

The empress took a bite of the pear and chewed it, speaking a little vaguely: "After conquering that place, you have to spend a lot of energy to manage it. It's not cost-effective at the moment, and I always feel that keeping it has some other uses."

Jiang Fan understood it. Many emperors in ancient times would not conquer some thankless places, and the expansion of territory must be meaningful. Maybe it will be taken down in the future, but it must be when necessary or during a special time period. For the empress, it might be the time for reunification, but the Supreme Emperor used Baiqu to advance this time. But it is also in line with what the empress said that it has some other uses.

"Tell me, will Wuming kill someone this time?"

Jiang Fan still finds it strange when he thinks of his brother-in-law's dual personality.

"Yes, when he appeared as Gao Rong, his murderous intent was so strong that no one under his command would survive."

Jiang Fan sighed: "What a weirdo. He can successfully transform his personality with just a mask. I admire him."

The empress said calmly: "This is what makes Wuming so powerful. You don't know him well enough."

Jiang Fan nodded, a little aggrieved: "The people in your family are too difficult to understand."

The empress snorted softly: "Not all people named Jiang are good people."

Jiang Fan was speechless, speechless.

"This time the Supreme Emperor is still very cunning. At least the inheritance is mostly successful. This aspect is a failure."

Jiang Fan was a little dissatisfied with this.

The empress said: "It doesn't matter. Success in martial arts will actually make him bolder and naturally more likely to make mistakes."

"I must have realized that martial arts is indispensable because of his repeated defeats against you over the years."

"When I executed Lu Fu, I took precautions against the Za family, but I didn't expect that Shi Jiao would eventually choose the Supreme Emperor to inherit the Za family, and even gave him the remaining half of his life. He is quite a figure."

Jiang Fan was also impressed, "The ancestor of the Za family is not an ordinary person. It's a pity that his school of thought is so complex that it is difficult to integrate it into one. In the end, everyone will have their own ideas."

The empress nodded: "I agree with this point. If it weren't for this, I would have wanted to destroy him when Lu Fu happened. A scholar without skill is much better than an ambitious man."

Jiang Fan said: "That's the truth. Shi Jiao's knowledge really has a lot to offer. Some of his insights are even beyond this era. I admire him very much."

"Beyond the times? You don't know what the next era will be like. It's hard to judge whether it's right or wrong."

The empress' simple words made Jiang Fan's heart tremble. These words were so ill-considered. Fortunately, the timing was perfect, and the empress obviously had no doubts.

He breathed a sigh of relief: "The Supreme Emperor is heading south with important disciples of the Za family. Where do you think he will go?"

The empress shook her head: "Jiuli, Eighty-Eight Village, or other places are possible. He has been in power for thirty-seven years and has done many things. Even I cannot know them all."

"I should be gentle. At least I should clean up the mess around him."

Jiang Fan somewhat regretted it.

"It's meaningless. He has obtained the magical power. It is very difficult to stop him. Especially when Yangdu is in chaos, it is difficult for you to free your hands."

Jiang Fan smiled bitterly and said: "Not only could I not take action, but I also didn't dare to kill him. At that time, I was still wearing the hat of rebelling. If he died, I couldn't explain it clearly. There was nothing I could do."

The empress said: "Don't say that the Ying family is ruthless. You are ruthless too. You turned yourself into a rebel to fight against this situation. Fortunately, you won. The Supreme Emperor really escaped and I came back. Otherwise, you would have jumped I can’t even clean it after entering Canglan.”

Jiang Fan smiled and said, "Isn't this because I trust you? From seeing those pre-set methods, from seeing the attitude of Meng Laoshuai and Gao Dashuai towards me, I felt that you would not lose. But I didn't expect that the Supreme Emperor would go so decisively. I must have been feeling very angry at that time.”

"He is a hero. It is not that difficult for him to cut off a strong man's wrist."

"However, what I consider is that since he left, he must have a back-up plan. I'm afraid it will be more difficult to deal with him if he causes trouble next time."

The empress thought for a while and said: "If he acts as I think from now on, this escape... will actually be a good thing for us..."

Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment, then showed a thoughtful expression.

"...Although I still can't figure it out, this situation seems to be deeper." For a long time, he couldn't help but sigh.

The empress said: "Planning takes the most effort, just like playing chess. Only with a complete layout will it be easier to harvest."

Jiang Fan nodded, but there was an indescribable feeling in his heart. He always felt that there seemed to be something deeper behind the current and future situations...

However, this game is already enough to watch. In the past few days, he has been worried about whether something will happen to Xiaocui.

"Fortunately, you came back safely. You don't know that I've been worried about my heart and lungs these past few days."

Jiang Fan took a big breath and said.

"Since I have a plan, Fengchen and the others can't keep me."

Jiang Fan looked at her body: "But you fought very hard this time."

"Well, because he had some plans for me, he couldn't use all his strength, and I didn't fully use my back-up skills, so I just gave it a good fight."

"Hmph!" Jiang Fan said angrily: "Then grandson, isn't it you who is after this?"

The empress suddenly turned her head and looked at him with interest: "This Fengchen is becoming more majestic and powerful, aren't you worried?"

Jiang Fan was furious at that time: "What, your mind is racing?"

The empress narrowed her eyes: "If there is anyone in this world who can catch my eye, he can definitely be considered one."

Jiang Fan seemed to have his tail stepped on, and almost jumped up: "I warn you, don't force me to kill him."

"It's not that easy to kill him. The Dark Dynasty Imperial Court, a family of two thousand years, and a person who walks in the world outside the world, what right do you have?"

Jiang Fan clenched his fists: "It's not easy, but it doesn't mean that he can't be killed. Let me tell you, I have seriously thought about killing someone, and he is afraid that he will win the bid."

"So..." The empress said seriously: "I said last time that you are jealous."

"Eat! A jar!" This time Jiang Fan is very single.

The empress looked at him, suddenly laughed, turned around and lay down: "What a waste."

Jiang Fan snorted: "You know, this grandson values ​​not only your martial arts, but also your family background. Unlike me..."

"Unlike you what?" The empress asked a little curiously.

Jiang Fan curled his lips: "Not like me who asks for nothing."

"Really?"

Jiang Fan said angrily: "You have changed. You wouldn't ask about this kind of thing before."

The empress laughed and continued to chew the pear. Soon, she finished eating a big pear, and she glanced at the remaining fruit core: "He wants to swallow me and Daqin in one bite, but he doesn't have such good teeth."
