Chapter 1077: You Shouldn't Look Like This

On his way back, Jiang Chuan's steps were heavy.

Since he had agreed to Yuan Buyu and taken on this task, he was sure to accomplish it, otherwise his mother might be in danger.

But he had just found Xiuxi, how could he possibly hurt her.

We will surely find a solution that satisfies everyone, we will.

He walked back to his own courtyard gate without realizing it, and Fang Jinshi's voice suddenly came.

"Why are you out and about at this hour Shouldn't you be asleep"

"Up to no good"

Fang Jinshi came to find Jiang Chuang, but found that he was not in the room. Zong Yu's medicine would take a while to wear off, she hesitated whether to go out and look for Jiang Chuang, when she saw him return from outside in a daze.

"Xi Xiu You, you're back again"

Fang Jinshi noticed that Jiang Chuang's expression was a bit off. She jokingly asked,

"Why is your face suddenly so pale You wouldn't have gotten into some trouble, would you"

Xiu Xiu was quick-witted and intelligent, she couldn't afford to show any flaws in front of her.

"What bad thing could I have done I just went for a walk outside to get some fresh air. I couldn't sleep anyway."

"You went and came back." Jiang Chuang glanced around her, suddenly smiling ambiguously.

"Without honor, are you wanting to open up and recommit yourself to my embrace again"

"I told you ages ago that kind of wild man from the mountains isn't right for you, get rid of him and come back to me."

Fang Jinshu's expression was extremely serious, and she wasn't moved by his words at all. Jiang Chuang wasn't stupid either; he knew she hadn't come back because of Zong Yu. If she wasn't here for a secret meeting in the middle of the night, it must be about the Xixia entry permit.

"Are you here to ask me to help you with the Xixia entry documents"

"Since you know, I don't need to say much more," Fang Jinshi said.

"We grew up together as best friends, you know my personality, protective and an eye for revenge."

"I will get what I want."

"You can't stop me."

"How could you be so sure I could get the Western Xia's pass documents" Jiang Chuang said helplessly.

"What if I didn't have this channel at all"

Fang Jinshi smiled, "You don't have it, then help me find out who can get this pass. This shouldn't be difficult for Wuyou Pavilion, right"

Jiang Chuang still wanted to make one last struggle.

"I built an assassins guild, not a spy camp."

Fang Jinshui saw that he was unwilling to help, sighed and turned to leave.

"If you're not going to help, then forget it. I will definitely find a way into Xixia even without you."

Jiang Chuang knew she was persistent, he felt helpless inside. This stubborn girl had died once in a different world, how could her personality not change at all!

He reached out and grabbed her.

Fāng Jǐnxiù faced Jiang Chuǎng, a slight upward curve playing on her lips.

To my surprise, after all these years, this trick still works wonders on Jiang Chuang.

"You don't necessarily have to go all the way to Xixia to kill Li Lie."

"What does that mean" she turned to face him.

"In two months, it will be the quadrennial four-nation exchange meeting."

"Four Countries Exchange Conference What's that"

"It was a grand celebration hosted by the four nations, Daxixi, Xixia, Wumeng, and Beijang, to promote the development of trade between the four countries."

"This year, it's Xi's turn to host the celebration, and envoys from the other three countries will be attending."

“It's called a celebration, but in reality it’s just a show-off competition. They hold all sorts of events and competitions for athletes from all four nations. The nation whose athletes win the most has to have the other three nations send merchants with their best goods to trade in their country.”

Fang Jinxiu frowned upon hearing this, "Trade with the best goods unconditionally"

"Well, that sounds pretty good. You mean whichever country wins gets to demand tribute from the other three"

"What's the difference between this and outright robbery"

Jiang Chuang smiled, "That's the meaning, but this is something that monarchs and ministers should worry about. What are you so indignant about"

Fang Jinshu pulled at the corner of her mouth, "Even if the Xixia envoy comes two months later, no one can be sure that it will be Li Lie."

"There's a high chance it's Li Lie," Jiang said.

"He is the most beloved son of the current King of Xixia and the heir apparent to the throne. Besides, he has always been arrogant and flamboyant; there's no way he would miss an opportunity like this to make a grand entrance."

Most importantly, Li Lie now holds significant power and has cultivated several capable subordinates. Since he suffered a loss at Xi Xiu's hands four years ago, he must be looking for an opportunity to get revenge.

So he certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity to go on a diplomatic mission to Da Xi.

Jiang Chuang didn't know whether telling her this news was right or wrong. All he knew was that if Xiu Xiu stayed in the capital, at least if she was in danger, he still had a chance to protect her.

Although he was reluctant to admit the existence of Zongyu, staying in the capital to confront Li Lie and assassinating him in Xixia's territory with her did pose less risk for him.

Since we can't stop her, we can only try to minimize the risks for her.

This is much better than you going to Xixia alone, Besides, revenge isn't something that needs to be rushed. If Li Lie doesn't show up by then, you can still go to Xixia and kill him later.

Fang Jinshi hesitated for a moment, then slowly raised her head.

"You make a good point."

"Brother Jiang, thank you."

Hearing that voice again, "Brother Jiang", Jiang Chuan's heart was both excited and a little bit sour.

Since Xiuxiang's unexplained disappearance, he had been on the verge of insanity. He finally found her in this world, but their circumstances had undergone a drastic change.

After so many years, he could still hear her calling him "Jiang Gege". Life was complete, wasn't it

"Fool, we've grown up together. No matter what, I'll help you, stand by your side, and protect you."

Since we're already on this topic, Fang Jinshu couldn't help but bring it up again.

"Since that's the case, why are you unwilling to listen to my plan to separate from Yuan Buyu"

Yuan Xiang is definitely not a good person, if you follow him, you won't end well.

"Jiangge, I hope you can live well. You shouldn't be like this."

Once upon a time, Jiang Chuang was the darling of heaven, a rising star in the medical world. Although they attended the same medical school and were both outstanding graduates, their paths never crossed.

But Fang Jinshi understood that there was also a vast chasm between genius and excellence.

She later became quite famous thanks to the unexpected discovery of the spring, but by then Jiang Chuang had already become a figure like a scientist in the medical world.

"In this backward world of medicine, everything I used to learn is meaningless now."

"So it doesn't matter what should or shouldn't be."

Perhaps the me you see now is the truest me.

Fang Jinxiu was stunned and couldn't understand why Jiang Zhuan was so unwilling to leave Yuan Buyu.

Could it be that he also craves fame, fortune, and status so much

Is it that she saw the wrong person, or is there something Jiang Chuang can't say

"You."

Just as Fang Jinxiu was about to ask a question, Jiang Chuang suddenly pushed her towards the path, his voice somewhat hurried.

"I'm going to rest now, you should go back too."

"Let your vinegar-faced husband know that you came to see me at night. Can you explain this clearly"

"I certainly don't want to get beaten up for no reason."

"Leave now."

Jiang Chuan finished speaking and turned his head to enter the room. Fang Jinxiu looked at the time, realizing that so much time had passed, Ah Yu's medicine effect was probably wearing off. She had no choice but to put aside her doubts for now and hurry back.

As soon as she left, Jiang Chuang immediately came out of the room. The spot where Fang Jinshi had just been standing was suddenly occupied by another black figure.

"What are you doing here again Didn't I already agree to kill him for you"

"The patriarch has a message for the young master. This time, he wants to see a head on a platter as a guarantee." her, "You guys want forty or fifty taels from my sister-in-law, not four or five taels. Can't we discuss this""Besides, raising that kind of money takes time. Where are we supposed to get that much s...
