The best ring

When Wu Fan finished his work, he had time to look for Zhao Qi, but was told that Zhao Qi had already gone out.

Wu Fan, who did not find Zhao Qi, told Sun Liang to take good care of Xiang Yuer, and then teleported to Tianshan.

Although his level has reached level 20, Wu Fan still can't relax about the upgrade. After all, this level is still too low. Although his strength cannot be completely measured by level, the higher the level, the stronger the attributes and the ability to wear The more powerful the equipment, the higher the overall strength of the person.

The moment Wu Fan used the fixed-point teleportation talisman, Xiang Yu'er, who was sitting in the courtyard, seemed to feel something. She turned her head to look in the direction where Wu Fan was just now. The movements in her hands paused slightly, and then she returned to normal. , continue to watch the scenery and eat some pastries.

Nanping Country, Fengyu City.

Cai Cheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, was receiving guests. However, the place where he received the guests was not in the living room, but in a relatively hidden study. And his guest, wearing a wide robe and a bamboo hat, lowered his head slightly and put his The face is completely hidden.

"City Lord Zhao, you can take off the hat. I guarantee that no one else will come in here." Cai Cheng sat behind the desk and looked at the man in front of him.

The person who came took off the bamboo hat, it was Zhao Qiushan, the lord of Xingping City!

"I don't know why Cai Shangshu asked me to come here this time?" Zhao Qiushan said as he sat down on the chair.

Cai Cheng did not answer immediately, but looked at Zhao Qiushan with amusement. For a long time, just when Zhao Qiushan was about to lose his patience, Cai Cheng finally spoke. He looked at Zhao Qiushan and said a name slowly:

"Wu Guang!"

Zhao Qiushan, who was still a little impatient, suddenly trembled when he heard the name, a look of panic appeared on his face involuntarily, and there was a little fear in his eyes.

"Cai...Cai Shangshu, I...I don't understand what you are talking about." Zhao Qiushan did not speak so fluently, and even did not dare to look at Cai Cheng.

"Don't understand?" Cai Cheng said with a half-smile: "If City Lord Zhao really doesn't understand what I'm talking about, then you can leave now and just pretend that we haven't met today."

Zhao Qiushan finally plucked up the courage to look at Cai Cheng, and Cai Cheng looked at him with a confident expression.

After staring at each other for a while, Zhao Qiushan turned his head slightly. He wanted to stand up and leave, but his butt seemed to be nailed to the chair, preventing him from moving at all.

"How did you know?" Zhao Qiushan asked frustratedly like a defeated rooster.

"Don't forget my identity." Cai Cheng smiled even more proudly: "After all, I have been the Minister of the Ministry of War for many years, so I naturally have contacts and contacts. I already knew it when you first started looking for him. , if I hadn’t been covering for you, do you think you could have found him so smoothly and brought him back to Xingping City safely?”

Cai Cheng's words made Zhao Qiushan even more frustrated. He thought he did it without anyone noticing, but he never thought that Cai Cheng had known everything for a long time. He called him here today. Obviously, it was impossible. Just to make myself accept his love.

"What do you want?" Zhao Qiushan asked.

"Cooperate!" Cai Cheng said: "Leave him to me, and the two of us will cooperate."

"No!" Zhao Qiushan refused without thinking. That person was like a talisman to him, and he was an important guarantee for his comeback and life-saving.

"No?" Cai Cheng was still smiling, but the smile on his face had turned cold: "Do you think you have room for bargaining? If I spread the news that that person is in your hands now, do you think you are still alive? Go down?"

"I..." Zhao Qiushan was speechless for a moment.

"Don't you think that your Majesty has forgotten all the things you did when our Majesty returned to China?" Cai Cheng sneered: "Your Majesty just hasn't freed up his hands yet. When the border issues are resolved and the domestic situation stabilizes, Do you think His Majesty will have a 'chat' with you?"

Zhao Qiushan was silent again. Of course he knew that the possibility of Wu Ya retaliating against him was very high. It was precisely because of this that he went to look for that person in order to seek a chance to save his life.

"With your current ability, you can't keep that person. Once the news is leaked, both you and that person will die." Cai Cheng looked at Zhao Qiushan and said, "Leave him to me, and you and I will cooperate." , this is the best choice for you.”

"What if the border battle is defeated?" Zhao Qiushan said unwillingly: "In that case, your Majesty will have no intention of causing trouble for me."

"Defeated? Haha." Cai Cheng sneered, with hatred and jealousy in his eyes: "I can tell you clearly that Wu Fan, who was entrusted with an important task by His Majesty, won a battle at Shanling Pass, a great victory. Black The Shui Kingdom’s army was almost completely wiped out! This news was sent back to the Imperial Capital yesterday.”

"What?!" Zhao Qiushan exclaimed in shock. He was still waiting for the disastrous defeat at Border Pass. If Wu Fan suffered a defeat at Border Pass, Wu Ya would definitely face huge pressure in the imperial capital. By then, Wu Ya would have no energy at all. If you take care of him, he doesn't have to take the most dangerous road.

"However, you don't have to worry, His Majesty has not thought of you yet." Cai Cheng said: "Because of the doubts of Jiang Shangshu and I, His Majesty has not officially announced the news to the outside world, but is afraid of Qin Shangshu and Zhao Shangshu. People went to Shanling Pass to confirm.”

"Then is this news true or false?" Zhao Qiushan asked quickly.

"Really!" Cai Cheng said, "So, you don't have much time left. When those two come back from the border, His Majesty will definitely announce the news officially. By then, her prestige in the country will reach its peak. How long do you think you can be the city lord?"

Zhao Qiushan's face was extremely ugly. He knew very well that once Wu Ya completely controlled the situation in their Nanping country, it would mean that his doomsday would come.

"I know what you want to do with that person." Cai Cheng continued, "But as a city lord, do you think you can do it? And in such a short time? Hand him over to me. With my participation, you have the possibility of success."

"Minister Cai, could it be that you also..." Zhao Qiushan looked at Cai Cheng in surprise. Obviously, he didn't expect to hear this from Cai Cheng.

"You're right!" Cai Cheng said coldly, "After Wu Ya ascended the throne, she promoted Wu Fan and sidelined me as the Minister of War. Now Wu Fan has won such a big victory. My life will be even more difficult. Wu Fan and I have a personal grudge. At that time, not to mention the position of Minister of War, even my life will be in danger. In order to protect myself, I can only do this. Wu Ya forced me to do this! It was Wu Fan who forced me to do this!"
