Chapter Seventy: Called 'Disease'
A massive maw ripped apart, revealing fangs dripping with a foul stench.This is a veritable blood basin.Compared to this, the "big mouth" of the edible flower is like a cherry's.And he opened his hug...Random Recommendation:
For a while, Jiang Wang has been seeking ways to escape the celestial being state, completely immersing herself in her own world and oblivious to the situation in the East China Sea.
It was only when the river surged and churned that he, guided by heaven's will, awoke to a single thought.
King Kun of Jing killed Li Longchuan of Qi.
Of all the information gathered from various sources, only this one sentence stood out.
Why did Wang Kun kill Li Longchuan How did he kill him Even the details of Li Longchuan's death, how believable is this whole process...
He didn't know any of it.
A few days ago, I was communicating with a friend, and suddenly they passed away.
He was just a man hit on the head by bad news.
Jing Guo and Qi Guo seemed to have reached an agreement, things appeared to be resolved. But he still didn't know anything about it.
He didn't know what was going on, so he had to find an answer.
He didn't know who the enemy was, nor did he hesitate to consider everyone as one.
A rare state of human and celestial harmony, which he referred to as "sickness".
This world is often absurd.
Black is said to be white, good is said to be bad, a flying deer is called a lame horse, and bones come out of eggs.
Some people died!
To die like a speck of dust.
Some people are reckless!
Some people make things difficult for others.
Why should I be the only one to look ahead and behind
Is it because I cherish life more, and value this world more
Now Jiang Wang said, he is about to have a relapse!
Some people are considerate of the overall situation, while others are naive and reckless.
When some people go insane, others fall ill.
This is reasonable.
Everyone was so reasonable that Cao Zai didn't know how to respond at first.
"I also want to ask this question!" Song Huai walked down from the Tiangya Platform and approached Jiang Wang, wearing an expression of deliberate anger on his face: "Young Master Jiang, you may not believe it. As for the full picture of this matter, I know no more than you. Until now, I don't know what happened between them. The reason why things have come to this pass, let me tell you this way – when a mountain collapses suddenly, someone always has to worry first. The Central Empire must bear more responsibility."
Cao Jie remained silent. Jing Guo had already withdrawn from the East Sea, and as the highest commander of the Qi forces, there was no need for him to engage in pointless arguments.
"It was Wang Kun from Jing Guo who killed Li Longchuan!" Qi Wen spoke up at this moment: "I personally went to the Ghost Face Fish Sea where the incident occurred and brought a professional coroner with me. From the evidence at the scene, Wang Kun used the power of the Bada under his control to suppress and bind Li Longchuan for interrogation, and then used the Heavenly Sword named 'Tui Yi' from the Chengtian Mansion to cut off his head."
Wang Kun is not an unknown figure, and "Tui Yi" is not an ordinary blade. But even so, to have Li Longchuan die like this is still too hasty.
A dull ache resonated in Jiang Wang's heart.
Qi Wen continued, "Wang Kun's heart is filled with malice and his methods are cruel and inhumane! He has been slain by the commander Zhan Yu, and this has led to a battle between Commander Zhan Yu and Lou Yue Zhenren of Jing Guo."
Song Huai frowned, but said nothing.
Tian Anping came to ask about the lease agreement and then attacked. He said that this matter was caused by Li Longchuan's death, which wasn't necessarily a problem... Although it sounded off somehow.
He didn't refute, not because he felt it was beneath him to argue with Qi Wen, but because he understood that everyone has their own perspective and way of expressing it, which is inevitable. Jiang Wang wasn't a fool, he wouldn't be swayed by a few words and would naturally discern the truth within them.
>
In Jiang Wang's current state, speaking too much is not necessarily a good thing.
"Tian Anping" Jiang Wang looked at Qi Wen.
Qi Wen's expression was grave, which made his words sound more sincere and credible: "It was General Tian who first discovered this matter, so he executed Wang Kun and his troops, and held Floor Yue Zhen accountable. The reason he needed to return to Jue Ming Island immediately for healing was because he was injured by Floor Yue... In this Jing Guo campaign to pacify the sea, Floor Yue was the highest authority responsible for affairs in the nearby islands, and Wang Kun was under his command."
After all, since they were both officials in the same court, even though Tian Anping was not very polite, he still explained for him.
As for this former Marquis of Wu'an before him, his feelings were also quite indescribable.
If Jiang Wang hadn't left Qi, he should be sitting in the position of commander Zhu Yu right now, still the first military achievement marquis of his time. That crazy Tian Anping wouldn't get the position this quickly, and the emperor could probably hide him for a few more years, continuing to temper his character.
The Dao has been newly revealed for nearly four thousand years, and the world's order is now settled. The truly important positions in this world often have one person for each available spot.
Jiang Wang can be sat on at any time.
Unfortunately, compared to Tian Anping, he was the one who needed to queue up even more.
For as long as Qi Xiao has been in power, he has lined up that many years.
As for Li Longchuan, his handling of the matter was absolutely without fault. By immediately dispatching troops and ships to the sea, he indeed pressured the situation into the best possible outcome. Who could say that he, stationed near the sea, did not fulfill his duty
There is no second truth to the matter of Wang Kun murdering Li Longchuan!
“I know Wang Kun,” Jiang Wang said, her voice growing quieter as she tried to slow herself down. “But what reason did he have for killing Li Longchuan”
“The preliminary judgment is that the conflict began on Haimen Island, escalating continuously along the way, step by step.” Qi Wen glanced at Song Huai and said to Jiang Wang: “Master Jiang, would it be convenient to borrow a word”
After listening for a long time, Song Huai couldn't help but speak: "What kind of underhanded dealings are you hiding that you can't tell an old man like me"
Qiwu completely ignored the Dongtianshi, and only looked at Jiang Wang.
Just then, the scene before him unfolded like a vast expanse of clear waves, stretching for miles under a sky of azure. He found himself standing on a calm sea, and upon that mirror-like surface, directly in front of him, stood Jiang Wang with an emotionless face.
On this sea, there were only the two of them.
He looked at Jiang Wang at this time, as if he saw a mountain that reached the sky!
I cannot see the peak's end, Nor can I know where heaven and sea meet.
"This is a sea of hidden meaning. Even the Eastern Celestial Master could not eavesdrop on our conversation without my knowledge." Jiang Wang explained simply, then said, "What does General Qi Wen want to tell me"
Qi Wen had always known that Jiang Wang's abilities were formidable, but hearing this sentence still surprised him.
Was Qi Xiao merely treating such individuals as chess pieces back then, to be disposed of at will
He forcibly held back his emotions and said sincerely, "Qi Ren has always considered Jiang Zhenren to be one of their own, and Qi is no exception. Regarding Li Longchuan's matter, I want to show you my sincerity. There are two issues at present that I am not comfortable discussing publicly, so I would like to speak with Zhenren in private."
“As for Wang Kun's actions, whether or not they were authorized by higher-ups in Jing Guo, it's hard to say right now. We haven't been able to apprehend the relevant parties for questioning, so all we have are speculations. At present, Ba Guo has chosen not to attack, yielding the path to Shen Xiao. If Jing Guo could provide a satisfactory explanation, we would also do our best to avoid war, as we must consider the bigger picture. Before this incident, General Li was recuperating on Hai Men Island... He stood up and intervened to stop Wang Kun from further action, leading to a clash with him and ultimately accompanying him, all in order to safeguard national interests and prevent Jing Guo from entering the East China Sea. Now that Wang Kun and his subordinates have been executed, and Jing Guo has made concessions in the East China Sea, General Li, I believe, would find some solace in the afterlife.”
“Secondly—,” Qi Wen paused, “Based on the traces of combat at the scene, it seems Li Longchuan made the first move. And he went for a kill.”
If it's said that Li Longchuan and Wang Kun were on edge from the start at Haimen Island, their conflict escalating all the way to Gui Mian Yu waters, with Li Longchuan striking first... then there is indeed a reason for Wang Kun to kill.
And these things, it is indeed inconvenient to speak openly, not good to let Jing Guo know.
After all, countering homicide and premeditated murder are two completely different things, and the price one can pay for them is also different.
Qiwen's explanation has already been able to explain everything.
This is a placeholder for text that has been removed or omitted.
As the commander of the Summer Corps, he currently garrisoned Decisive Island. All his choices in this matter were indeed well-reasoned.
Jiang Wang just raised his head and looked at the sky.
The sea is closer now.
“Where is Longchuan’s body... right now” Jiang Wang asked.
Qi asked, "General Li's body was first kept by Bajiao Island. People from Binghuang Island took over later, and it should now be on the ship returning to Linzi."
Did Li Fengyao return to Qi carrying the coffin
The older sister, with her younger brother, sailed westward alone, returning to the ancestral home in Shímen.
Jiang Wang couldn't bear to think of that scene. His foot sank slightly, crushing the sea of hidden meaning.
This is a simple test.
The emotions beneath the sea were heavy, like a dusk pregnant with rain.
He tried his best to keep calm, avoiding looking at Cao Jie and Song Huai. Instead, he turned his gaze to the third party present—the immortal from Diao Hai Lou, who had remained silent and aloof, observing everything with cold eyes.
"Qin Zhenren," Jiang Wang opened his mouth and asked, "How is my friend Zhu Biqing doing lately"
Although Zhu Biqiong's feelings for him have been erased, and now they are strangers when they meet, he still treats Zhu Biqiong as a friend and instinctively trusts her more. If he wanted to get a fair perspective from a third party, the first person he thought of was still Zhu Biqiong.
"Not bad," Qin Zhen said calmly. "Since Lord Lou himself came to invite her, she went to the Mi Jie to meet the remnants of Dou Er's army—just before the battle between Lords Lou and Tian, at Qingaojiao's Qipingle Wine House."
With that one sentence, she said everything there was to say.
Jiang Wang gave her a light bow and, without seeking answers from Cao Jie or Song Huai, turned and left.
The viewpoint of the State of Qi, he had already obtained it from Qiwu here. The attitude of the people of Jing, has already been indicated by that stone tablet at the sea corner. To say more about this here would be pointless.
He has already listened with his own ears, now he wants to see with his own eyes.
“Where is Master Jiang going” Song Huai asked with concern.
"Wander around, and see everything." Jiang Wang stood tall with his sword, setting sail into the distance, as if wearing the vast sunset sky as his cloak. Without looking back, he said: "After so many years without doing these things, I almost forgot that I was once a Green Card holder."
He was going to places Li Longchuan had been to in the past, to see with his own eyes the traces Li Longchuan had left behind.
Cao Jie held the last piece of Qing Yi Ding Shen Gao and the empty food box, standing there without saying another word.
Yes, Jiang Wang was once the top catcher in Qi country.
He was a general of the state of Qi and the Marquis of Qi.
Later, because of the Battle of the Spirit Realm, all of his troops were abandoned, directly leading to the outbreak of the Qi Rebellion.
He still remembered the head guard of the Wuanghou Mansion, named Fang Yuanyou. He was a very reliable and loyal person. He had followed Jiang Wang to achieve military exploits on the Qixia battlefield. As for those below him, he couldn't remember anymore.
He has too many things to remember.
And Li Longchuan, was he not also a general of the State of Qi If he had not died, he would certainly have become a Marquis of the State of Qi in the future.
Now a corpse is lying at the bottom of the sea.
Does anyone really care about the truth behind his death
The value of his life, however, was completely drained...
To strive for victory, to fight for the nation's gain, can be said to be one's duty.
Nothing new under the sun.
In this matter, Jiang Wang undoubtedly did not fully trust Qi Guo.
But Cao Jie completely understood this distrust. He asked himself, when he pressured Jing Guo, he wasn't sure if Li Longchuan's death was as Ling Chen Zhenjun said. He just, as the highest commander, instinctively made the choice that best served Qi Guo's interests. And after Ling Chen Zhenjun appeared and the two sides had reached an agreement, the specific details of the matter didn't seem to be worth digging into anymore...
Isn't Wang Kun already charged with the murder of Li Longchuan, and has Jing Guo's layout near the sea been cleared
"It seems Duke Shu is troubled," Song Huai looked over, his eyes holding a hint of depth.

Cao Jie glanced at him faintly: "The road back home is long, Master Tian, please be careful along the way."
Then he turned around and boarded the warship of misfortune, standing beside Qi Wen.
"My lord—" Qi asked, opening his mouth.
"Set sail!" Cao Jie tapped the deck with his military boots.
The battleship, which was about to depart, simply turned in the air.
"Now, tell me everything you know again." Cao Jie leaned against the railing, gazing in the direction where Jiang Wang had disappeared. "Just tell me what details are confirmed evidence. No need to connect the clues for me."
The sky brightened and then darkened again.
On the "Southern Isle" to the southeast of Winter's Coast, summer lasts year-round, and the air crackles with oppressive heat.
Hell has made arrangements in advance for a place to stay, right here.

The magistrate Wang and the city's old Wang Lao honestly squatted on the island, putting on the islanders' clothes, posing as a couple, closing the door tightly, probably preparing to live there permanently.
How scary ---
As we retreated from the glaciers in the north, we saw that the entire near-sea archipelago was mobilizing its troops.
Once again, battleships dominate the sky, and purple energy swirls. The night sky hangs heavy with starlight, a towering monument stands before the edge of the world.
Just then, another sword came flying in from the west, as if it were going to cleave the islands apart!

“Who is this person So arrogant” Wang, the coroner, stood in the middle of the courtyard, looking up at the long-lasting rainbow left by the sword light: “The East China Sea has so many soldiers and horses, poised for battle. He’s not afraid of being slaughtered”
"Jiang Wangbei!" The king of the city stood by the well, drawing water. He looked at the murky well without raising his head.
“You recognize this” Wang, the coroner, was surprised.
"Even if I turned to ashes!" The urban king lifted a bucket of water, adding, "I told you, I admire him very much."
"I could turn him to ashes and let you identify him. See if you were exaggerating." Wang, the officer in charge of executions, said with a sinister smile.
“Great!” Urban King laughed brightly.
He set the bucket down beside him and put another empty one next to it. Today he was going to do two good deeds, helping Mrs. Zhang from next door by carrying her water and also filling a bucket for Old Li at the village entrance.

But just at that moment, a beam of emerald light leaped out from the well water!
The officials Wang and King of the City almost simultaneously became serious, behaving very respectfully.
That emerald light emerged from the well, emitting a soft voice: "It's truly interesting. The sea is in utter chaos. King Kun of Jing Guo killed Li Longchuan of Qi Guo. Now, all the people of Qi at sea are clamoring for war. Lingchen Zhenjun, the immortal of Penglai Island, has put down the Heavenly Stele to negotiate peace, and someone surnamed Jiang has come again—"
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
His lament seemed to have no purpose.
The coroner Wang Zhong, loyal and honest, suggested: "Should we take this opportunity to attack Jing Guo Strike while the iron is hot!"
Of course, that's not a reliable suggestion.
>
Now, in this Jingguo, the most dangerous time has arrived. Any sliver of hostility will be magnified infinitely.
The voice in the shimmering light seemed nonchalant: “Just now, I suddenly thought of something. You two are interested in Binghuang Island… It’s a coincidence that Li Longchuan, who is currently on vacation, resting with warmth and softness, just happened to meet Wang Kun. Could it be that you guided them”
Urban King had an instinctual awareness, and he was about to say there was nothing to it.
The coroner Wang beside him had already shouted loudly: "This is all the idea of the City King!"
The urban king only managed to cast a wistful glance at his good elder brother before a gleam of blue light enveloped him, transforming into a hand that clamped onto his neck, lifting him bodily.
The pervasive sense of death nearly swallowed the city king whole. He swelled instantly, his face turning crimson, while his neck paled to a ghastly white!

Within the shimmering light, Qin Guangwang's voice was as cold and chilling as a executioner slowly sharpening his blade before carrying out his grim duty: "Why do you think so highly of yourself Why do you dare to act without permission"at way. What was wrong with the woman he lovedShe had been with him for so many years without a name or status. They clearly loved each other, but they could only be together secretly, like having an...
