“We are here to meet with the Right Chancellor of the Great Jing Dynasty. We had a plan to cooperate with him.”

Under Jia Daoshi's threat, the Holy Maiden had no choice but to tell the truth with a helpless expression.

Even now, she is still pinned to the table by Jia Daoshi.

"The Right Chancellor? Isn't he already dead?"

Jia Daoshi looked puzzled.

Saintess: "No. We are indeed cooperating with your Right Chancellor."

Jia Daoshi: "That's impossible! The entire line of the Right Chancellor has clearly been exterminated! You're making a fool of me!"

Jia Daoshi still believed in Ji Wuxin's methods. If he said he would exterminate nine generations of a family, then he would never let a single person go, let alone such a key figure.

"You are all wrong, the Right Chancellor is not dead."

"Oh? What exactly happened? Tell me." Hearing the Holy Maiden speak with such certainty, Jia Daoshi couldn't help but become interested.

At this moment, the Holy Maiden dared not beat around the bush and said directly, "That's right, the Empress of Great Jing executed her twin brother who looked exactly like her. This twin brother had been trained by her to be her substitute all along, while she herself secretly escaped and is still alive."

"This guy is indeed cunning and ruthless!"

The idea of ​​having one's twin brother die in one's place is something an ordinary person wouldn't actually do!

Although Empress Ji Wuxin was ruthless and steady in her actions, she was still deceived by such an old fox.

Through this incident, Jia Daoshi realized even more that sitting on the throne was no easy task. He had to face so many cunning old foxes every day, which was like sitting on a volcano.

Where is he hiding?

Jia Daoshi didn't want to waste time either.

This time, however, even the saintess was stumped: "I don't know. He wouldn't have taken me to his hiding place. He came to me on his own initiative."

Jia Daoshi sneered: "You'd better tell the truth. If you dare to lie to me, you know what will happen to you!"

The saintess's expression changed, and her delicate body trembled: "I am telling the truth, and you certainly know the Right Prime Minister's character better than I do."

Upon hearing this, Jia Daoshi nodded. Given the Right Chancellor's cunning nature, how could he possibly expose his whereabouts so easily? Therefore, what the Holy Maiden said was very likely true.

If Ji Wuxin wants to eliminate him, then he will only become more cautious.

A cunning rabbit has three burrows; to survive, it will do anything.

Besides, there are so many secret techniques and wonders in the martial arts world, so even changing one's appearance through disguise is actually quite normal.

If one stand-in dies, a new one can be made.

“Very well, Your Highness has traveled a great distance to Dajing. What you are planning must be of great importance. Why don’t you tell me all about it?” Jia Daoshi asked the question that he was most concerned about and curious about.

When Cherry Tomato saw that Jia Daoshi didn't press the matter, she breathed a sigh of relief. She hadn't lied just now. If Jia Daoshi hadn't believed her and continued to torment her, she would have been truly innocent.

Moreover, no matter what you say next, the other party won't easily believe you, which will cause trouble.

However, at this point, the saintess dared not lie anymore, so she simply revealed all the purpose of her visit!

An hour later.

Jia Daoshi opened the window and left the inn.

Inside the room, only the saintess, whose face was no longer covered by a veil, remained.

The saintess's face was still blank; she had no idea how she had spent the past hour!

……

The Great Jing Dynasty was in turmoil. In fact, the Right Chancellor had already sensed something was wrong after the Green Turban Army was suppressed, so he moved all his activities underground and stopped making them public.

Moreover, this negotiation with the Holy Maiden was actually quite simple: he would cooperate with the Western Eight Kingdoms to help them send troops eastward to occupy the western region of the Kushan Empire, while the Western Eight Kingdoms would help him divert the attention of the Great Jing Dynasty.

In fact, this kind of cooperation is very broad. To say that it has no substantial impact on Dajing is an understatement; it is more like a business transaction.

These were also measures taken by the Right Chancellor to protect himself.

Unless, of course, the Immortal City of the Endless Era was also involved.

However, it seems that the Heavenly Wasteland City and the royal families of the Western Eight Kingdoms are at odds, so this possibility is not high.

When Jia Daoshi found out, he lost interest.

The Great Jing Dynasty already has a lot of troubles, so it won't make a difference if it gets one more Western Eight Kingdoms.

Compared to the Everlasting City of Heaven, the wavering Ming Heying, the Fifth Prince who fled to Jiangnan, the Longwu Dynasty, and the Yuezhi, the issue of the Holy Maiden is actually the least threatening.

Although the Great Jing still appears to be thriving on the surface, if anything happens to Ji Wuxin, who is in charge, the Great Jing will inevitably descend into chaos!

Unless, of course, Ji Bingyan inherits the throne.

Thinking of this, Jia Daoshi knew it was time to call Ji Bingyan over. No matter what, the throne could only be held by his wife. Otherwise, if the world fell into chaos and the people suffered, his leisurely days would come to an end!

Thinking of this, Jia Daoshi turned around and glanced at the Tongfu Inn behind him. A smile crept onto his lips as he quickly left!

"Homeowner!"

Jia Bing was waiting at a tea stall. When he saw Jia Daoshi, he got up to greet him.

"Let's talk about it when we get back."

Soon, the two returned to the small courtyard in the woods.

"Bingzi, let those twins go. They're no use being kept around."

"Yes!"

Jia Daoshi's words were an order, and Jia Bing released the people without hesitation.

"Hmm? It seems this went smoothly. Did the Holy Maiden give you the compensation you requested?" Xiao Rongyu walked up to Jia Daoshi and said.

"Well, it went fairly smoothly." Jia Daoshi nodded.

"Isn't this holy maiden from the Western Eight Kingdoms extremely beautiful?"

Faced with Xiao Rongyu's question, Jia Daoshi answered without hesitation, "She is indeed a peerless beauty."

"Oh, then how does it compare to me?"

Seeing that Jia Daoshi answered without even thinking, Xiao Rongyu couldn't help but sneer.

“It must be our Holy Maiden who is beautiful! The Holy Maiden is the most beautiful woman, without exception. No matter how beautiful this Holy Maiden is, she is not as beautiful as even one of our Holy Maiden’s fingers!” Jia Daoshi chuckled.

Jia Daoshi had not yet realized that Xiao Rongyu was so jealous.

However, this also gave Jia Daoshi a very fresh feeling. Xiao Rongyu, who was puffed up with anger, actually had a unique charm.

Faced with a somewhat angry Xiao Rongyu, Jia Daoshi didn't say much. He held the beauty in his arms and coaxed her back to the bedroom.

The quickest way to calm a woman down is simple: have an honest conversation that gets straight to the heart.

After Jia Daoshi apologized, Xiao Rongyu became very proactive, and the two communicated very smoothly, with her anger gradually subsiding.

While things were comfortable here, the Holy Maiden at Tongfu Inn was extremely anxious.
