at dusk.
Lingchu held the wine glass in his hand and watched the night slowly fall. He narrowed his eyes and said, "If Zhao Guangji comes to the East Palace, let him stay here."
He walked out of the restaurant, moved toward the East Palace.
Within the palace.
Prince Qin An was sitting on the main seat. When he saw Zhao Guangji walking in, he stood up quickly and said, "Grand Master!"
Zhao Guangji looked at Qin An and nodded, then glanced at Western Zhou. The prince understood and said, "You all go down!"
"yes!"
Qin An looked at Zhao Guangji and stretched out his hand and said, "Master, please sit down!"
Zhao Guangji sat down and looked at him and said in a deep voice, "Prince, what time has it been? If you invite me over, aren't you afraid that His Majesty will be more suspicious of you?"
Now Qin Xiao's health is getting worse and worse, and his temper is getting more and more irritable. He is the Grand Master of the current dynasty, and his every move is in the eyes of interested people. Now that he has come to the East Palace, let others see him.
What do you think, Your Majesty? He is going to serve the new king in advance, otherwise his life will not be saved!
When he heard that the prince wanted to see him, he thought he had heard wrongly. The prince had done something reckless, which made him a little dissatisfied.
If he wasn't too deeply involved with the prince, he really wouldn't want to come here tonight.
When Qin An heard Zhao Guangji's dissatisfied words, he also sighed, "The matter is urgent and there is nothing I can do?"
"But the third child is also gathering his people to discuss matters, so he can help us share some of the pressure!"
"Your Highness, what happened?"
Qin An took out a note and pushed it in front of Zhao Guangji, "This is the information I got from the black market at a huge price!"
Zhao Guangji had a look of doubt on his face. Suddenly his eyes froze, he looked at Qin An and asked in a deep voice, "Your Highness, is this true?"
"The information on the black market is always accurate and there is no mistake!"
Zhao Guangji took a deep breath, "Huo Ri actually failed and died in the East China Sea, Your Majesty..."
"This is also what I'm worried about. What does the Grand Master think we should do?"
Zhao Guangji suddenly raised his head and said in a deep voice, "Nothing can be done now. Your Majesty will be furious if he gets the news. Whoever steps forward will be unlucky now!"
"I shouldn't be here tonight!"
He couldn't help but blame himself secretly. If he had known this news, he would have been killed.
He knew Qin Xiao too well. If news about the East China Sea came back, he would not be able to bear the consequences.
Qin An was shocked when he saw Zhao Guangji's expression change. He calmed down and said, "Master, don't worry, the news hasn't come back yet. I got the news from the black market."
Zhao Guangji sneered when he heard this, "His Royal Highness, you underestimate His Majesty too much. Your Majesty must already know the news of Huo Rishen's death. There is no doubt about this!"
Qin An's expression changed drastically and he stood up suddenly, "What should we do now?"
"Dragon blood, yes! There is also dragon blood. As long as you help my father find the dragon blood to heal his body, maybe my father will stop pursuing it."
Zhao Guangji looked thoughtful when he heard this, his eyes flashed, and he tapped the teacup with his fingers, "This may be a way, but where can I find dragon blood?"
"Huo Ri is a master of the Yangshen Realm. He died in the East China Sea. There must be a top master to steal the dragon's blood!"
"Such a master cannot be impressed by worldly things. It will be very difficult to obtain dragon blood!"
When Qin An heard this, he clenched his hand on the table into a fist and said in a deep voice, "We must get the dragon's blood. There must be news on the black market!"
Zhao Guangji also nodded. He also knew the mystery of the black market and its power was huge.
If he hadn't been concerned about the power of the black market, His Majesty would have taken action against the black market long ago. If such a powerful force could not be used by him, no one would be able to sleep.
"Your Highness, since King Qi has summoned his people, Xiang will also pay attention to Dragon Blood. We must move quickly and not let them take the lead, otherwise we will be very passive!"
"What the Grand Master said is true!"
He turned around and looked outside the hall and said in a deep voice, "Here comes someone!"
A young eunuch pushed open the door and walked in, saying, "Your Highness!"
"Go to the black market right away, I want clues to the dragon's blood!"
"yes!"
When the little eunuch heard this, he quickly accepted the order and hurried away.
The two of them looked at the back of the little eunuch and breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they got the dragon's blood, they could resolve this crisis. They hoped that the black market could give them the news they wanted.
Qin An's heart moved. He looked at Zhao Guangji and asked in a low voice, "Grand Master, how is the investigation of the person behind this black market going?"
"Just some clues!"
There was an expression of interest on his face, "Master, can you tell me in detail?"
Zhao Guangji shook his head, frowned and said, "I'm not sure, but the five major families have some relationship with the black market. Running the black market requires huge financial support, and the five major families alone are far from enough!"
Qin An's eyes flashed, "Five major families, they are actually related to the black market. Not many have such huge financial resources. Could it be that the person behind this black market is the world's richest businessman Jin Mantang!"
Zhao Guangji smiled when he heard this, "Jin Mantang is indeed extremely wealthy and has strong financial resources, but there are many black market masters. According to my guess, there are others besides Jin Mantang!"
Qin An also took a breath when he heard this. The power of this black market is terrifying at first glance. The five major aristocratic families and Jin Mantang are not the people behind the scenes. Who is the person behind the scenes?
"Don't ask about the black market. I'm afraid only Your Majesty knows about the person behind this!"
Qin An looked at Zhao Guangji and said, "But if this black market is not eliminated, it may threaten the royal family!"
"Your Majesty knows these things, Your Highness is worrying too much!"
Zhao Guangji took a look at the sky, stood up and said, "It's getting late. Your Highness, I'll take my leave now!"
Qin An stood up and said with a smile, "Master, please be patient!"
"Since Master Zhao is here, don't leave!"
Lingchu, wearing a loose black robe, appeared at the palace door, blocking his way.
Zhao Guangji's expression changed, and Qin An looked at Lingchu and was shocked, "Here comes someone!"
Lingchu looked at the two of them and sneered, "Keep shouting and see if anyone can hear you."
He has used his spiritual thoughts to set up a barrier. Unless someone breaks his barrier, no one can hear his words.
When Zhao Guangji saw that no one came, his heart sank, "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
"Of course I will reunite you with your two sons!"
Lingchu smiled slightly, "It will be very interesting if the grand master of the current dynasty dies in the prince's east palace!"
The expressions of Qin An and Zhao Guangji changed dramatically, and Lingchu's figure moved and instantly came to Qin An.
Just as he was about to take action, Lingchu sealed his acupuncture points and then slapped Zhao Guangji's chest with his palm, shattering his heart.
There was a look of disbelief on his face, and then he fell to the ground in disbelief.
Lingchu looked at Qin An and said softly, "Don't worry, I won't kill you, I will let Qin Xiao kill you!"
"Father and son cannibalize each other, that's quite interesting!"
