For a moment, it seemed as if the chill in his body completely dissipated, filling the whole room, and through my skin, it also penetrated into my flesh and blood. I almost subconsciously shuddered and looked up at him.???

At this moment, I no longer know that it was the sentence and point in his words that slashed my heart.

That wedding?

That wedding that made the bride's blood splatter on the spot and returned to the Nine Springs?

That wedding that allowed my daughter to witness the cruelest scene and suffer from abscesses?

That wedding that almost caused Pei Yuanxiu and I to break up?

...

Suddenly, when I mentioned that wedding, it was like a sharp thorn condensed by ice that suddenly pierced into my body. The slow pain and chill made me subconsciously reach out and stroke my arm, feeling that the chill had soaked my spine. I was silent for a while before I said softly: "Of course I remember."

“…”

"How come I can't remember it."

“…”

Not only I remember, but for him, it was probably a night that he would never forget in his life.

The things that happened that night changed the fate of too many people, and also changed the fate of me and him too much...

Seeing me silent like this, his face turned paler, but he didn't remain silent for too long. He continued to speak, but his voice was slightly hoarse, and he said, "Then, do you still remember the guests who came at that wedding?"

“…”

I was silent for a moment.

He thought I didn't remember it, so he immediately wanted to speak, but before he could say anything, I said calmly: "Ao Ping."

“…!”

His expression suddenly sank.

I looked up at him and said calmly: "Do you want to say something about him?"

“…”

He seemed too surprised. He didn't expect that I would tell the crux of his coming today, and he couldn't speak for a while. And I also knew that what he was going to say must be Ao Ping.

The two of them were silent for a moment, I raised my hand and made a gesture, and said, "Please sit down first."

We sat at the table, and there were still some untied dishes on the table. I simply picked them up to one side, then poured a cup of tea and put it at his hand. He didn't look at me, but just lowered his head, stroked the pale and slender fingers on the warm tea cup, and said softly: "Thank you."

I sat next to him.

He closed his hands and held the cup, but did not go to drink the tea inside immediately, but said to me: "Miss is right. What I want to talk to the lady is about this person."

"Bohai King Ao Ping, what do you want to talk about Mr. Qinghan?"

"Miss said yesterday that the Iron-Faced King will return to Shengjing to save Mr. Huang."

"It's very likely."

"Then do you think it's possible for him to rescue Mr. Huang?"

I frowned and didn't say anything.

The sudden appearance of the Iron-Face King is a shocking thing for the Central Plains. He even talks about the grasslands. His sage as he was powerful and his magnanimous appearance has not yet faded from people's memories. The Eight Heavenly Kings still possess a certain power in Shengjing. If he appeared in Shengjing, it would be a shocking event.

But, after all, he has disappeared for so many years.

Now he has no soldiers and horses under his control. Although the Eight Heavenly Kings are legends of heroes, the legend is a legend. In the past few decades, he has been a bandit at the sea and has completely given up his status in Shengjing. In addition, the empress dowager's marriage and died in the Juma River Valley. The Iron-Faced King's lineage has actually declined.

Moreover, if he really wants to save Huang Tianba, he will face Luo Shi.

Prince Iron Salty is now the most practical person in charge of the capital.

Although Luo Shi is his junior in terms of seniority, everyone knows that people on the grassland advocate strength, and even more ignorantly, these people at the center of the political storm, strength is their confidence in speaking. This is when Xie Houqi injured Huang Tianba in the martial arts training field, Luo Shi almost killed him. At that time, the Iron Whip King begged hard and finally saved his son's life.

It can be seen that Luo Shi's power is so great that the eight heavenly kings of the older generation can hardly suppress him.

This is the case with the Iron Whip King who is still operating in Shengjing. What about the Iron Face King?

If he wants to rescue Huang Tianba, he will undoubtedly have a head-on conflict with Luo Shi. What will happen then?

Can the men and horses he traverse the East China Sea allow him to traverse the grassland again?

Thinking of this, my brows frowned.

Liu Qinghan said: "Miss is probably thinking about the same as me. It is not really possible that the Iron Face King can rescue Mr. Huang."

"and you--"

"But, it is very likely that his appearance will cause chaos in Seung Kyo."

“…!”

My heart leaped suddenly and I looked at him in surprise.

Liu Qinghan said quietly: "I'm not wrong."

I bit my lower lip and nodded, "Yes."

He was right. Even if the Iron-Faced King was unlikely to rescue Mr. Huang, his reappearance would definitely be a big deal. Once he and Luo Shi met, it would definitely cause chaos in Shengjing.

"If that's the case," he said slowly: "Then no matter what the relationship between the court and Jiangnan is, victorious Kyoto will be unable to take care of itself, and it is impossible to have the energy to go south. In this way, if the fight really starts, the situation in the court will be much easier."

I nodded: "You are right."

but--

"All this is based on one premise, that is, the Iron-Faced King can return to the grassland."

“…”

I didn't answer this immediately, but was silent for a moment before looking up at him. Both of them looked a little clear. I said slowly: "Is this why you came to tell me about Ao Ping?"

He looked at me and said, "I don't seem to be surprised by this when I look at the lady."

“…”

I nodded gently.

Aoping, the third generation of the Ao family in Bohai, can be said to be the uncrowned "Bohai King". His jurisdiction is closest to the grassland. It is adjacent to Shengjing. It is a force in the Central Plains dynasty and grassland tribes. At the wedding of Liu Qinghan and Pei Yuanzhen, I paid special attention to him because of the special geographical location where he was, his ship could easily go south and lead directly to the East China Sea. I even suspected that the reason why Pei Yuanhao could appear on the sea so quickly was to board the boat directly from the Bohai Sea and then go directly to the East China Sea and Zhoushan.

Then, if the ships in the East China Sea dock and enter the grassland, the Bohai Sea is also a must-pass place!

If he wants to stop it, the Iron-Face King's route to the north will be cut off.
