The treasures in the box were pitifully few compared to the ones outside, but each of them was priceless.
However, among all these things, the Heshi jade was the most valuable.
According to historical records, the last emperor to possess the Heshi Jade was Li Congke, the Emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty. Before the Later Jin Dynasty captured Luoyang, he and his concubines set themselves on fire in the palace, and all the imperial items were thrown into the fire at the same time.
From then on,"He Shi Bi" mysteriously disappeared.
Now that Wu Qi had obtained this item, he was already satisfied. The remaining items were left to Wei Xiaobao and Suo Ertu to pick.
Wei Xiaobao didn't ask for any antiques, but he did ask for a dagger that could cut through iron like mud and a golden silk armor.
On the other hand, Soetu obtained a tower-like object from the Tang Dynasty. As for what it was, Wu Qi and the others did not ask, so Soetu did not say.
It would still take a lot of time to count the belongings. It was not easy for him to get a chance to leave the palace. Now that he had obtained the benefits, Wu Qi could not be bothered to stay here any longer. He took a few pieces of jewelry and walked out of Ao Bai's mansion first.
Having stayed in the palace for quite some time, Wu Qi also missed Shuang 'er and Ah Ke very much. As soon as he walked out, he made a few detours and went to the inn where they were staying.
However, as soon as he went upstairs, he saw two people standing quietly at the door of the room next to Ah Ke and Shuang 'er. As they were familiar with Chen Jinnan, Wu Qi could tell that they were from the Heaven and Earth Society with just a casual glance.
"Brother Wu, the Chief has been waiting for you for many days.”When they saw Wu Qi, the two of them said in unison.
"Chief? Why are you looking for me?" Wu Qi was confused. Could it be that he thought that he was leaning towards the Qing court, so he took Ah Ke and Shuang 'er to threaten him?
However, after thinking about it for a while, Wu Qi also rejected it. This was because the Chen Jinnan he knew was an open and aboveboard person.
She slowly pushed open Chen Jinnan's door and saw him holding a wine glass in one hand and drinking by himself.
Just as Wu Qi was at a loss for words, he saw Chen Jinnan smiling as he stretched out his hand and pointed at a chair at the side."Have a seat."
Wu Qi did not decline and sat to the side. Chen Jinnan also poured him a glass of wine and said slowly,"I already know the reason why you entered the palace. I was wrong about you before. Come, brother toasts you as an apology.”
"Ah?" Wu Qi was stunned.
"What's wrong? Won't you forgive me? Ao Bai is a great enemy of the World Society. If you kill him, we will have a better chance of returning to the Ming Dynasty.”Chen Jinnan smiled.
"Yes, I am." Only then did Wu Qi realize that he had killed Ao Bai not only for the Heaven and Earth Society, but also for money and official positions. At the same time, he did not want more people to die at Ao Bai's hands for nothing.
"You are now a great hero of the Heaven and Earth Society. We once said that whoever kills Ao Bai will become the chief of the Heaven and Earth Society. I have already discussed with the important members of the society and are prepared to appoint you and the little Flying Dragon as the chief.”
At this point, Chen Jinnan could not help but look behind Wu Qi and ask,"Where's the little Wyvern? Why didn't he come out with you?"
"That kid is still ransacking Ao Bai's mansion.”As Wu Qi spoke, he couldn't help but look at the room next door. At this moment, he saw Ah Ke and Shuang 'er coming out well.
Wu Qi had thought that they were being controlled, but now he was relieved. He waved his hand and let the two of them sit beside him, hugging each other in each hand.
Chen Jinnan didn't seem embarrassed and handed the incense master token to Wu Qi.
However, Wu Qi rejected it." That's not very good, right? I haven't joined the Heaven and Earth Society yet."
"It doesn't matter. If you don't join the Heaven and Earth Society, you won't be able to join any hall. This Incense Master Token doesn't belong to any hall, but only has the treatment of the Incense Master. It can't control people, but it can make it much more convenient for you to travel in Jianghu.”Chen Jinnan said.
Since Chen Jinnan had already done so much, Wu Qi could not refuse to accept him.
"Alright, now it's time to talk about the real business.”At this point, Chen Jinnan's expression was a little bitter.
"What is it?" Wu Qi also knew that this matter would definitely not be small.
"Do you still remember Zheng Keshuang, who was killed by you?”
"Of course I remember."
"Taiwan has begun to take revenge on the Heaven and Earth Society. The Hangzhou branch was destroyed three days ago because it was unprepared!”Chen Jinnan could not help but punch the table.
"Hehe, he really came." Wu Qi only smiled and did not take it too seriously. He only felt a little sorry for the Heaven and Earth Society brothers who had been killed.
"Brother, you look like you don't put them in your eyes at all.”Chen Jinnan looked at Wu Qi strangely. He didn't know if he was pretending to be calm or if he had a way to deal with him.
"Hehe, their main force is in Taiwan, separated from the mainland by the vast sea. There are Qing soldiers guarding the border, and only a small portion of their manpower can come over. Big Brother, just tell the various branches to be on guard.”
Chen Jinnan thought that Wu Qi was joking." Brother, what are you talking about? Even if you have that kind of strength, your information channels are limited. How can it be easy to eliminate them?”
"Then Big Brother, just wait for my news. I was the one who caused this mess. There's no reason for you to clean up this mess.”Wu Qi replied firmly. Then, he looked left and right and smiled."It's just that I should go to my room now.”
"It's time for me to leave after waiting for you.”Chen Jinnan was well aware of this. Seeing that Wu Qi was about to leave, he also started to stand up.
Wu Qi brought Ah Ke and Shuang 'er back to the room. As soon as the door closed, he picked them up one by one and walked to the bed.
Their faces immediately turned red. Shuang 'er immediately said,"Husband, Branch Leader Chen hasn't gone far.”
"Little girl, what are you thinking about?" Wu Qi ignored them and placed the two of them on the bed to sit down. Then, he sat down as well. He reached into his pocket and took out more than ten pieces of jewelry.
"Your husband has made a fortune now. I got you some jewelry to see if there's anything you like.”
When the two girls saw this, their eyes couldn't help but shine. It was a woman's nature to love beauty.
However, after looking at it for a while, the two of them could not decide which one was more suitable.
Wu Qi originally wanted to put them in their hands just like that, but he was afraid that fighting over these things would cause a disagreement between Ah Ke and Shuang 'er. Seeing that they didn't want to take it, Wu Qi could only distribute it himself.
"In that case, let's split it in half. If the thing you like is in the other party's hands, you can exchange it with one of them.”As Wu Qi spoke, he gave each of them two rings, three pairs of earrings, and two hairpins.
Since he liked the items so much that he could not choose, there was nothing to be dissatisfied with Wu Qi's distribution method. He accepted them all happily.
After doing all this, Wu Qi could not help but kiss one of them on the cheek. Then, he leaned close to the two of them and whispered,"Now that big brother has gone far away, should we take a good rest?”
