Jiang Chen smiled, knowing that his plan had succeeded.
No matter how much he said to such a person, no matter how he performed, it was useless.
Why not tell him what the other party valued the most? Wasn't he the one the other party valued the most?
Of course, he was also very clear in his heart. Although they agreed to form an alliance, it did not mean that they could truly share all the resources.
At times, it was necessary to increase the stakes. However, these things needed to be done slowly.
"From today onwards, you and I are allies.”
"However, let me say this first. Is the alliance reliable?”
"I'm not the one you're relying on, but you, Thirteenth Brother.”
Jiang Yuehuang continued, her expression much more relaxed. However, his words were still as straightforward as ever.
The current alliance was formed because of Jiang Chen's personal interest. There was no other reason.
However, it would not be good if it was just one person.
"I naturally understand." Jiang Chen nodded. He wasn't surprised.
Then, after both parties had settled the matter, they sat opposite each other again.
Previously, it was because of his bloodline, but now, he saw the other party as an ally, someone on the same level.
Therefore, the discussion was no longer as polite as before. Instead, it was about some important matters.
"This time, you exterminated the Green Lotus remnants in the Black Heaven Earth Sect.”
"I believe that after this report, Imperial Father will definitely be very happy and reward you greatly.”
"Of course, the most important thing is that Thirteenth Brother has officially become famous in the world.”
At this moment, Jiang Yuehuang drank a cup of tea and spoke of this matter.
It was precisely because of this that she had chosen to ally with Jiang Chen at the last moment.
This was an extremely troublesome matter in front of others, and it was handled so beautifully by the other party.
Techniques, strategies, courage, all of them could not be lacking.
Jiang Chen didn't think much of it. He had relied on external help, nothing worth praising.
It was just that he could not control what outsiders thought. Let them be.
The two of them continued to talk.
World affairs, the structure of the empire, the attitude of the aristocratic families, and the Hundred Countries Sect.
They talked about almost everything. Jiang Chen had learned a lot during this time.
For example, which prince was in one of the five great princes 'camps, or what grudges there were between the aristocratic families.
There were also the customs of the hundred countries, the grudges between the sects, the stories of the prodigies, the legends of the experts, and so on.
It also broadened his horizons and allowed him to stand at a higher place to observe the seemingly peaceful Great Yan Empire and the Endless Mainland.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Yuehuang looked at the sky and got up to leave.
Jiang Chen was about to send the guest off when the latter turned around.
"Oh, right."
"Jiang Yu has already secretly contacted the Yu Clan and is about to attack you.”
"This news can be considered a small gift from me to our alliance.”
After saying that, Jiang Yuehuang turned into snowflakes and left the place.
However, Jiang Chen didn't sit down. Instead, he was deep in thought.
The information given by the other party was absolutely true.
As for Jiang Yu's attack, it was also within expectations.
Why did he contact the Yu Clan? It was nothing more than wanting the Yu Clan to borrow the hands of others to target him.
After all, the battle between the princes could only be done in the dark. Even if the Great Yan Emperor knew about it, he would turn a blind eye and not interfere. He would not punish them after the incident. This was the struggle of the royal family, cruel and obvious.
However, if it was in the open and known by the world, it would be completely different.
Not only would they attack, but they would also be severely punished or even executed for the crime of fighting against each other.
Jiang Yixian was such a person. On the one hand, he was benevolent to the people and implemented various reforms to open up the minds of the people, allowing the entire world to have good weather, the country to be prosperous, and the people to be peaceful.
On the other hand, he was domineering, strict, and cold. Pro-conquering countries, exterminating cults, and demanding that princes and ministers be strict with themselves. Anyone who committed a serious crime would not be forgiven easily.
This was the heart of an emperor. The heart of a dragon was unpredictable and could not be fathomed.
Jiang Chen didn't think there was anything wrong with doing this.
And the more he understood, the more curious he was about his father.
But that was all, because he felt that some things were not done enough.
Why did the Hundred Kingdoms exist? Why should the righteous path and immortal path continue to inherit? Why not unify the demons and barbarians at the border?
If he reached the peak, what he did would be a hundred times more thorough than this!
Of course, this was only Jiang Chen's initial thoughts.
He shook his head and cleared all these thoughts from his mind.
He was prepared to sit cross-legged on the futon and continue cultivating.
But at this moment, a voice came from outside.
"This lowly servant Ye Bei Feng requests an audience with Your Highness!”
So late? Jiang Chen frowned. He knew something big had happened.
Therefore, he opened his mouth and let the other party in directly.
"I am guilty of disturbing Your Highness late at night.”The moment Ye Beifeng entered, he knelt on one knee.
He seemed to feel that it was inappropriate for him to disturb His Highness at such a late hour. However, some things were urgent and he had to say it.
"Alright, let's get down to business." Jiang Chen naturally didn't blame him.
The latter quickly got up and took out a box from his pocket.
There were all kinds of runes carved on it, and there were spatial fluctuations. It was probably something like a storage box.
"This humble servant was ordered to search Li Rusong's residence today, but I didn't find any talismans or pills.”
"However, I don't dare to not report the things inside, other than the communication with the Yu family.”
"There's one more thing…Please take a look, Your Highness."
Ye Beifeng hesitated for a moment when he said the last sentence.
Then, he placed the box on the table, bowed slightly, and retreated.
Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes. He knew that Li Rusong was once a guest of the Yu family and had been recommended by Jiang Yu to become the magistrate.
However, it was obvious that Ye Beifeng was not only anxious and cautious because of this matter.
Without thinking much, he opened the box.
There was a jade slip inside. It was a letter to communicate with the Yu Clan.
The content was not important.
But as Jiang Chen took all the jade slips, something caught his attention.
It was a black lotus that was refined from an unknown material.
