Chapter 415
Immediately after,
under Xie Zhize's horrified gaze.
Li Hanyi, wearing a gray veil and dressed in white, appeared in the Star-Moon Pavilion,
and beside her was a handsome youth with a gentle smile on his face.
Xie Zhize could be certain,
he absolutely hadn't sensed the aura of this youth in front of him at all just now.
However.
At this moment, the other party appeared in the Imperial Observatory with Li Hanyi, so there is only one possibility, which is that the other party's strength far exceeds his own; this is why he, an expert who has reached the Land Immortal Realm, couldn't sense the other party's existence at all.
"Greetings, Young Master Jiang."
And seeing Jiang Chen and Li Hanyi,
Qi Tianchen hurriedly stood up and bowed to Jiang Chen, then looked at Li Hanyi and sighed:
"Previously I thought the Spear Immortal would become the third powerhouse in the Spirit-Wandering Mystic Realm in Xueyue City, but I didn't expect the Xueyue Sword Immortal to have broken through a step earlier; it is truly a joyous and congratulatory occasion."
"Is the Director speaking from the heart?"
Jiang Chen looked at the other party with a half-smile: "Aren't you worried that our Xueyue City is too powerful and will threaten the status of Tianqi City one day?"
"That..."
Qi Tianchen smiled awkwardly: "Young Master Jiang is young and has already reached such a realm, how could he be tempted by things in the mortal world."
If it were before just now.
As the Director of the Imperial Observatory of the Northern Li Imperial Realm,
and also known as one of the two protective experts beside Emperor Mingde along with Eunuch Jin Xuan of the Five Great Eunuchs,
Qi Tianchen would definitely consider how he should help Tianqi City break the situation if Xueyue City's momentum surpassed Tianqi City.
However, just now,
he discovered that even Xie Zhize hadn't discovered Jiang Chen's arrival, so he didn't dare to think that way anymore.
Because he knew,
if even the number one powerhouse of Tianqi City, Xie Zhize, couldn't do anything to Jiang Chen, and if Jiang Chen were willing, he could suppress the other party at any time,
then even if he is the Director of the Imperial Observatory,
possessing the ability to observe celestial phenomena and calculate the affairs of the world, it is useless!
Just like the head of Mount Qingcheng, Lu Suzhen, whose cultivation had reached the Mortal Immortal Realm back then,
who clearly calculated that Zhao Yuzhen would inevitably face a life-or-death crisis in this life, yet he still had no way at all, and although he tried to change Zhao Yuzhen's fate later, he ended up dying under the thunder punishment.
In Qi Tianchen's view.
What he needs to do now is to try hard to maintain the relationship between Tianqi City and Xueyue City.
As for the future, if any short-sighted person in the Xiao Imperial Clan offends Xueyue City, or even offends Jiang Chen directly, then it can only be said that everything is fate.
"Director, don't be nervous~~."
Seeing Qi Tianchen's somewhat unnatural expression, Jiang Chen smiled gently:
"Our Xueyue City is indeed not interested in court affairs, however... the Second Master of Xueyue City, Li Hanyi, is now my master, so if anything happens in the future, I also hope the Director can understand."
Although Jiang Chen didn't say it explicitly,
he believes Qi Tianchen can definitely understand the meaning in his words.
That is, although they in Xueyue City are standing on the side of the Sixth Prince Xiao Chuhe now, this is not to help the Sixth Prince Xiao Chuhe fight for the throne, but because of the Prince Langya Rebellion Case back then.
As for why they chose the Sixth Prince Xiao Chuhe instead of the White Prince or the Red Prince, it is naturally because only Xiao Chuhe is the most suitable.
And hearing Jiang Chen's words,
Qi Tianchen also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He naturally heard the meaning Jiang Chen wanted to express.
Xueyue City is not interested in who sits in that position, but regarding the Li Xinyue matter back then, the Xiao Imperial Clan must give an explanation!
Although this will eventually make the Xiao Imperial Clan lose some face, and it is very likely that many people will die, at least it is generally within a controllable range.
Moreover,
regarding the events of that year, he also felt regret for Prince Langya and Li Xinyue.
It's just that
Qi Tianchen also didn't think Emperor Mingde did anything wrong,
because the prestige of Prince Langya Xiao Ruofeng back then was truly too high.
If it were just high prestige, it wouldn't be anything; the fault lies in Prince Langya Xiao Ruofeng also being the Great Protector of Northern Li and commanding the three armies!
Looking at it this way,
something major would happen sooner or later!
Because even if Prince Langya never had such thoughts, the people under him wouldn't think so!
Being in the temple,
no one doesn't want to go further.
If Prince Langya could sit in that position, then these people would inevitably be able to go further.
And in fact, this was indeed the case.
The Prince Langya Rebellion Case back then was indeed pushed by someone behind the scenes.
It's just that what these people didn't expect was that Prince Langya, in order to maintain the stability of the Northern Li Imperial Realm, chose to commit suicide on the execution ground.
And...
Can this matter really be blamed on Prince Langya?
Clearly not.
Because both being the Great Protector of Northern Li and commanding the three armies were granted by Emperor Mingde back then to thank Prince Langya for giving up the supreme position to him.
Therefore,
it can only be said that the reason things developed into the current situation is just because seeds were planted many years ago.
Thinking of this, Qi Tianchen said softly:
".. If Young Master Jiang can think this way, then it is the old Daoist who has used the heart of a petty person to measure the belly of a gentleman."
Hearing this,
Jiang Chen just smiled casually and didn't prepare to say anything more on this matter.
If it weren't for Qi Tianchen being Ye Ruoyi's master and protecting her heart pulse when she was born, Jiang Chen wouldn't have been able to say so much to him.
In general,
Qi Tianchen is still a pretty good person.
Of course.
If after today,
Qi Tianchen still blocks Li Hanyi from taking revenge for Li Xinyue, then it can't be blamed on him, Jiang Chen.
Subsequently,
Jiang Chen smiled and cast his gaze on Xie Zhize.
From the moment he walked into the Star-Moon Pavilion until now, although the other party hadn't spoken, his attention had almost never left him.
"Greetings, Young Master Jiang."
Xie Zhize saw Jiang Chen looking at him and immediately showed a respectful expression:
"Previously I thought the National Teacher was exaggerating, but now it seems that the Young Master can have strength far exceeding Xie's at such an age; I feel the National Teacher was actually being modest."
"It's just that my luck is a bit better."
Jiang Chen smiled gently: "On the contrary, Senior, I have heard quite a bit about you from the Third Master, especially about that immortal Mo Yi on Penglai Immortal Mountain; the reason the other party was able to successfully break through to the Spirit-Wandering Mystic Realm was thanks to your guidance."
