The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 2960: Chapter 2960: Feeling Guilty About What? (Part 2)

Gongben Hao turned to look at Gongben Xiang.

”Haohao, I just feel it’s too rushed.” Gongben Xiang pulled a corner of his mouth, ”After all, our foundation is in Wa Country, we must find a way to return.” If they stayed away too long, there might be trouble back home.

Gongben Hao nodded, ”Don’t worry father, we will return.” Then he turned and left.

Gongben Xiang frowned at his son’s back, then focused his gaze on the wine jar, paused for a moment, and eventually opened the jar.

The rich aroma of the wine made one instantly feel relaxed and irresistibly want to take a sip.

After leaving the Jin Residence, Yang Ruxin and Gu Qingheng moved into the best inn in Shangjing, the Longmen Inn, and they spent their time eating and drinking, nothing else.

The people assigned to follow them from the background were feeling rather exasperated, having to watch them eat and drink all day.

In the end, due to a moment of inattention, they lost them.

Meanwhile, Gu Qingheng led Yang Ruxin into a courtyard in a slum area.

An acquaintance was waiting there.

”Prince, it’s quite dangerous for you to be here.” Yang Ruxin frowned at Qi Jingyun.

”If I don’t meet with you, I’m not at ease.” Qi Jingyun smiled, ”How’s the situation on this side?”

”Here’s the terrain map of Shangjing along with a rough Defensive Map.” Gu Qingheng handed over the map they had previously drawn, ”The Saint Lord intends to use King Han to provoke a war between Jin Country and Daxuan, so he can profit from it.”

”We must stop this war.” Qi Jingyun frowned, knowing that the common people suffer the most during wars.

”What is Prince thinking?” Yang Ruxin sat down.

”Wanyan Liang.” Qi Jingyun looked at Yang Ruxin, ”He might be the variable in Jin Country.”

”The Crown Prince? Indeed, he is a variable.” Yang Ruxin frowned, ”But he’s not the Emperor yet, his powers are limited.”

”Then let him become Emperor.” Qi Jingyun slightly raised an eyebrow, ”What do you think?”

”Good idea.” Gu Qingheng nodded, ”The current Emperor of Jin Country is obsessed with immortality, Yang Xiong has gathered some information that while it still needs verification, suggests this old Emperor is already resorting to extreme measures.”

”What has he done?” Qi Jingyun frowned, having not yet gathered much information due to his short stay.

”Using Yin to replenish Yang.” Gu Qingheng squinted his eyes and a flash of killing intent passed through them, finding the old Emperor utterly disgusting.

Qi Jingyun inhaled sharply, ”There have been recorded instances in books of rulers doing such things in the past, but it actually made them die faster.”

Yang Ruxin burst out laughing, ”You’re right, the most important thing for a person is their energy. Overindulgence with women greatly damages a man’s energy, leaving them drained and closer to death.”

Qi Jingyun rubbed his nose, ”Don’t look at me like that, I’ve not indulged recklessly.”

”I only spared you a glance, never accused you, what are you guilty about?”

”I...” Qi Jingyun was mortified, momentarily at a loss for words but quickly changed the topic, ”Wanyan Liang must dislike his old man living forever the most, so collaborating with him should be feasible.”

”But he’s extremely treacherous, cooperating with him is like asking a tiger for its skin.” Yang Ruxin shook her head, ”I suspect, the one assisting the old Emperor in living a long life is none other than him.”
