Chapter 1941 The Mountain Is High and the Road Is Long

When the Emperor of Great Qi called a halt to the battle, the end of the battle had naturally come.

Although Jiang Wang was covered in wounds at this time, Chong Xuanzun was spotless at this time.

Although Chong Xuanzun still had two star wheels, although he was still eager to fight and his blood was like a flood...

But the victory and defeat had been decided.

At least it was decided at this moment.

Chong Xuanzun was in the air, and suddenly smiled. His black hair and white clothes were hanging down, and he opened his big hand and scattered the sun, moon and star wheels. He turned and stepped down from the high sky, and walked out gracefully.

The palace gate was naturally opened for him.

The dense eyes that had been waiting outside the palace for a long time, whether hidden or visible, fell on him.

His breathing would be heard repeatedly.

He had long been accustomed to being the center of attention, and did not care about people's thoughts.

Under the majestic and tall palace, his steps were willful and his laughter was wild-

"It's a long way to go, Jiang Qingyang, see you again in the rivers and lakes!"

He walked away so gracefully, just like the first time Jiang Wang saw him.

Qiu Ji, who was waiting outside the palace gate, looked at Jiang Wang in front of the palace from a distance, without giving any look, and followed Chong Xuanzun in small steps.

Now only Jiang Wang stood in front of the cracked Delu Palace. He was only separated from the Emperor of Great Qi in the palace by a door. But Han Ling, who was guarding the door, would not invite him in again.

He regarded Chong Xuanzun's reunion with the rivers and lakes as a blessing.

Because life and death were unpredictable, and blessings and disasters were actually unknown.

He won the second battle with Chong Xuanzun, but he did not feel satisfied.

He cut the way out of Qi with his own hands, but the road ahead did not become clear.

But this was his choice.

The place where he started was a ruin, and all his efforts over the years were to return to that ruin.

No matter how glorious the scene was, he could not sleep peacefully. Right and wrong could only be tested by time sometimes, or in other words, right and wrong were no longer important.

He once left the land and walked thousands of miles alone, and now he had to walk back alone.

He faced the palace and bowed politely: "I bid farewell to the emperor!"

"Leave the set of "Shi Dao Zao Hai" I gave you. You don't need to read it anymore." The emperor's voice came from the palace: "You have read through four thousand years of history and written thousands of words, but you don't know how to protect yourself. It shows that reading books can't be taken seriously."

Jiang Wang said: "I don't have this set of books with me. If your majesty insists on asking for it, I will ask someone to buy a set for you."

Han Ling looked at Jiang Wang covetously, as if he would forcibly search the storage box if he disagreed.

But the emperor just said: "Don't call me your minister anymore."

The voice that was so powerful that it could cover everything was slightly raised: "Wu'an Hou Jiang Wang, the crime is disrespectful! Now deprive him of his title, reduce his position, take away his fiefdom, demote him to a commoner, and expel him from Qi! Han Ling, you supervise this matter."

Before Jiang Wang could react, he and Han Ling appeared outside Delu Palace, and the palace gate in front of them was closed.

He bowed deeply to the palace gate again: "May Your Majesty take care of your holy body and live forever!"

Then he stood up and walked out of the palace with his injured body and tattered clothes.

Han Ling, who was responsible for expelling the commoner Jiang Wang, hurriedly followed him, stretched out his hand, and helped him replenish his blood and blood and repair his Ruyi Fairy Clothes.

As the head of the palace officials of Daqi, he had no personal likes or dislikes for Jiang Wang. His likes and dislikes were the same as those of the emperor.

At this moment, as Jiang Wang walked out of the palace, his sight was blocked by him.

Both of them were silent until they walked out of the palace——

Outside the palace, there were crowds of people!

This place has always been an empty square, and no restaurants or wine shops are allowed to be set up, and no hawking or gathering is allowed. When have so many people ever gathered here?

So many people gathered together, but they were silent, showing good discipline. It was obvious that most of them were soldiers.

There were many familiar faces in the crowd, which made Jiang Wang stop.

He stopped outside the Changlu Gate, sorted out his mood, and smiled: "Are you all going to have breakfast here?"

It is now Chenshi, which means "breakfast time". Many people get up and have breakfast at this time.

The former Marquis of Wu'an said hello to his former subordinates.

But the crowd in front of him was silent.

As if they could use this silence to keep him.

Jiang Wang stopped for a moment and walked forward again. Han Ling followed him silently.

The crowd also made way silently.

Jiang Wang walked slowly in the crowd. He knew the weight of his sight long ago, and he had already borne the weight of his sight.

His determination was conveyed in this silence.

Suddenly, a man knelt on one knee, blocking him, looking up at Jiang Wang with a sad face: "Lord! Do you still remember me? You saved me in the Minxi Corridor of Xia! Why... did you leave?"

Jiang Wang looked at him, but he didn't have much impression of saving him, but this face was indeed familiar, and he had followed him to fight in Xia.

In the Minxi Corridor, the general Yan Po of Yi State fought to the death with Zhou Xiong of Xia State, and the aftermath of the battle affected many Qi soldiers.

While he was waiting for an opportunity to join the battle and help Yan Po, he rushed to save people, which also gave Yi Shengfeng, who was lurking on the side, an opportunity and ushered in Bo Xinglang's sneak attack.

This man was probably one of the soldiers at that time.

As a general, he was limited to the life and death of a soldier, and did not focus on preserving himself and playing a greater role. It can be called stupid. But it also became a reason for people to miss him.

Jiang Wang reached out and lifted the man up, patted his shoulder and planned to leave. But the crowd knelt down in unison.

They started shouting in unison.

Which city had this one conquered with him, which general had that one killed with him, who had raised the flag with him, who had shared wine with him... In the end, they all asked him why he left.

Jiang Wang had to raise his palm and make a downward motion, and these passionate soldiers were quiet.

"The court has its own public announcement on this matter, so I won't say it. The specific situation is subject to the court's public announcement." He swept his eyes around one by one, and said sincerely: "But my comrades, I will never forget the days of fighting side by side with you. Today's farewell is not a farewell forever. See you again in the rivers and lakes in the future. I will toast you all!"

"Let me toast you first!" Li Longchuan, with a jade belt on his forehead, walked out of the crowd, holding a pot of wine in his hand and two wine glasses between his fingers.

As he walked out, he kicked people with his boots: "Get up, everyone, they have made up their minds, and you say goodbye to show your sincerity."

The soldiers stood up one after another.

This heroic young general did not hide his dissatisfaction at all, and his walking posture was full of resentment.

"I didn't want to come, but my sister insisted that I send you off on her behalf, so I'll have a glass of wine for you..." He said, and casually poured a glass of wine, handed it to Jiang Wang with a frivolous attitude, and said: "Alas!"

Jiang Wang could fully understand his friend's emotions, and just smiled: "Drink the wine given in vain today!"

Took the wine glass and drank it all.

Turning the cup down, he smiled and said: "Ask Sister Feng Yao for me, I hope I will have the opportunity to apologize in person in the future."

Li Longchuan was a little embarrassed, and he accompanied him with a glass of wine rather awkwardly.

After drinking the wine, some shame sank, and some worry floated up.

He said seriously: "I hope we don't meet on the battlefield."

In today's world, countries are fighting frequently. The king chooses his ministers, and the ministers also choose their kings. It is common for talents to come and go. Jiang Rumo, the current prime minister of Da Qi, was also brought from Shen State by his grandfather when he was a child.

However, it is different for each person. For example, the more the emperor values ​​Jiang Wang, a national pride and a person with outstanding military achievements, the less likely he will let him be a sword for other countries.

Jiang Wang promised not to serve other countries. The reason why this promise was believed was not only because of Jiang Wang's character. But also because of his actual action of resigning in person when he returned to Qi.

The reason is very simple - if he wants to go to any hegemonic country in the world, he can go directly. The pressure of Qi will be borne by those hegemonic countries. He has no need to go back to Qi and test the mood of the emperor of Qi with his life and death.

Not many people know what Jiang Wang wants to do next. In Jiang Wang's cognition, apart from Chong Xuansheng, there should only be the current emperor.

Because he almost never mentioned Zhuang Gaoxian in front of others, he remained silent during this difficult long journey, swallowing blood in his stomach.

So Li Longchuan does not understand the weight of this sentence "I hope there will be a chance in the future" said with a smile.

But he understands the heaviness of Li Longchuan's sentence "Don't meet on the battlefield". He gave up all his fame and fortune in Qi, showing his ruthlessness in seeking the truth, but Li Longchuan still regarded him as a good friend.

So he said solemnly: "Never."

After Li Longchuan, the most popular brother Yan Fu Yan Xian in the Linzi aristocratic circle walked out of the crowd.

"I won't drink with you, I have something to do later." He said casually, as if Jiang Wang was just going on a long journey, and casually slapped a stack of house deeds into Jiang Wang's hand: "There are some houses here, in several major countries in the Five Regions, you can live wherever you like. It saves you from buying it yourself."

The dazzling light of wealth forced Li Longchuan to retreat again and again, and he covered his mouth and nose lightly, showing the disgust of a nobleman for things.

Jiang Wang stuffed the stack of deeds back and said seriously: "I appreciate Brother Yan Xian's kindness, but I am devoted to seeking the truth. In the future, I should be in the deep mountains and forests, and in the wilderness. I don't need so many properties."

Yan Fu looked at him thoughtfully, and slapped a storage box in Jiang Wang's hand: "Keep this box of talismans for self-defense. If you live in the deep mountains and forests, snakes, insects, rats and ants will be quite troublesome."

Jiang Wang was afraid that he would see something else, so he put it away carelessly: "Then I will be disrespectful and bring you some local specialties from the deep mountains and forests later."

At this time, a dark and thin boy came out of the crowd and hugged Jiang Wang's thighs. Before he opened his mouth, tears flew.

Then he shouted loudly, "Master!"

Jiang Wang looked at him helplessly.

He raised his tearful face: "Master, I will go with you. I will hold the sword for you!"

"Little bastard! Is that what I taught you?" The contemporary Marquis of Bowang stepped into the field angrily: "What did I teach you to say? I told you to tell him not to leave!"

Chu Yao hugged his master's thighs tightly, crying sadly but expressing clearly: "My master is the best in the world, but he is unhappy. If he leaves, I will be happy. I will go with him."

Jiang Wang knew early on that there was no one else except Chong Xuan Pang who could organize so many old subordinates in such a short time. But he knew it in his heart. Rather than saying that this close friend wanted to play the emotional card to keep him, it was actually to let him say goodbye properly before leaving Qi State, so that he could leave without any worries.

He rubbed Chu Yao's forehead and said softly, "Master can't take you away now. You are my disciple Jiang Wang, you can understand the truth, so I will talk to you about the truth. First, your mother is in Linzi, you have to stay to take care of her. Second, you are still young and your body is not fully grown. It is not the time for you to completely let go of your practice. What you need now is to settle down and study hard, not to travel thousands of miles. Third, I will leave the swordsmanship you are going to learn next with your uncle Chongxuan. I will check it when we meet next time... Can you pass my inspection?"

Although Chu Yao is smart, he is still young after all. He just thinks that what the master said makes sense, and Chu Yao is indeed a person who can understand the truth. When he heard the last question, he subconsciously nodded: "Yes!"

"Good disciple." Jiang Wang praised: "You really make me proud!"

Chu Yao wiped away his tears and seemed to be proud.

Chongxuansheng rolled his eyes.

He ran out after Chu Yao, but Yi Shisi stood with Yi Huaimin in the crowd. The brother and sister are two extremes.

Fourteen just watched all this, quietly without saying anything, while Yi Huaimin shouted: "Brother Jiang! Do you remember our agreement? It's better to meet by chance than to invite each other, otherwise today..."

Jiang Wang had to bow his hands and apologized: "Next time for sure."

Before Yi Huaimin could make a fuss, he saw Huaying Palace Master Jiang Wuyou striding over, and shut his mouth tactfully, and his stretched neck retracted again.

Jiang Wuyou had no followers with him today. He simply wore a martial arts uniform and tied a ponytail. He probably came from Huaying Palace just after finishing morning exercises. Judging from the dense sweat on his forehead, the intensity of the morning exercises was very high. With her strength in Daowu, it was not easy to sweat.

She also adhered to her usual concise style and only asked: "Jiang Qingyang, do you have no attachment to Qi?"

This is not just her problem.

This is also a question that many friends want to ask but cannot ask.

When your friend says that he wants to give up everything he has and pursue his own path with great courage, as a friend, how can you block his way in the name of friendship?

So Li Longchuan was just indignant for a while, so Yi Huaimin just shouted "promise".

At this moment, Jiang Wang looked at Jiang Wuyou, the morning light flowed on her wheat-colored skin, making her noble and having a vigorous vitality different from other crown princes. And her eyes are so heroic, and so sharp at this moment.

Your Highness, I am attached to everything in Qi, and this is why I resigned. Jiang Wang murmured in his heart.

But he could only answer like this: "Your Highness, my path is not here."

Jiang Wuyou looked at him quietly.

He also looked back calmly.

Finally, Jiang Wuyou said: "Remember you promised me a request?"

Jiang Wang smiled bitterly. "Of course."

He always remembered that he still owed Jiang Wuyou a promise. He would help Jiang Wuyou once without reservation to repay Jiang Wuyou's help in rescuing Zhu Biqiong.

If Jiang Wuyou asked him to stay, he would definitely stay.

Even though his heart was very hungry and needed to swallow the bitter fruit of hatred, he couldn't hold it back even when he was in the demon world!

"Forgive Qi Shuai." Jiang Wuyou said: "Although she doesn't need it, this is my only request."

Jiang Wang was silent.

Jiang Wuyou looked into his eyes: "You are right, it is not a deal."

Then he turned around and left in the morning light.

She knew that Jiang Wang intended to cut off the relationship, and took the initiative to solve the cause and effect.

This journey is long and difficult.

Don't worry.
