"Why did you bring me back?" The man looked at Ye Lang. He said arrogantly.
"Stop pretending. You're the only one here now. You can say it now." Ye Lang tapped the table with his fingers and said slowly.
"What are you talking about? I don't understand!" The man looked confused.
"From your eyes, I can see a desire to survive, but even more so, greed. I really don't understand why your country would choose someone like you to do such a thing! Alright, as long as you tell me what you know, I will let you go and give you a new identity, as well as endless glory and wealth! "Ye Lang slowly said, and every time he said a sentence, that person's expression would change a little.
"I'm not..." The man originally wanted to refute, but when he saw Ye Lang's eyes, he finally lowered his head, "Alright, I admit that I am such a person, but I didn't expect you to be able to see through my intentions. It seems like you're not as simple as you were in the teleportation!"
"Of course I'm not simple. I just live a little more low-key. "Ye Lang was not embarrassed at all and accepted all the praise.
"..."
Why didn't I realize that this kid's skin was so thick before? But speaking of which, I didn't realize that this kid had such extraordinary intelligence before. Could it be that he was pretending?
No matter what, it was not wrong to ask him to do this. He could actually complete his own mission!
"What do you want to know?" The man asked.
"It's very simple. Tell me, what is your purpose for bringing so many spies here?" Ye Lang asked.
"I'm not too sure about that, but I heard from the higher-ups that we are all bystanders this time. We are here to see the same scenery. If possible, we should take the opportunity to fish for some benefits!" That person told him everything he knew, but the problem was that what he said still couldn't explain the matter clearly.
"What scenery?" Ye Lang asked.
"I don't know. I only know that it's an internal matter of your empire, and it was your people who invited us over to see the scenery." The man replied.
"What?!" The people in the Secret Room began to be shocked. They never thought that this abnormal movement would actually be due to their own internal reasons.
And now, they were also wondering who it was, and why?
"Alright, take him away!" Ye Lang felt that he could no longer ask anything else. Therefore, he asked someone to bring him down.
"Didn't you say you would give me freedom and let me live a luxurious life?" The man struggled to speak.
"I did say that, but not now. Moreover, these things are not my business! I've had enough fun today, I'm leaving! "Ye Lang stood up and stretched.
"You … are too shameless …"
"Who said I have no teeth? I have a mouth full of good teeth!" Ye Lang opened his mouth, revealing his perfect white teeth.
"…"
…
After completing his mission, Ye Lang returned to the study room, gave some instructions, and prepared to leave. Of course, the Emperor and the others had not figured out the situation yet, so naturally, they would not let him go so easily.
"Ye Lang, how did you know that person would have something to say?" This was the Emperor's first doubt.
"That's simple. I've just killed one person, and he's still reacting so actively even though he has eleven other companions. This means that he's either loyal or devoted. Either that, or I wanted to discuss the conditions alone, so I just casually tried it, and the result was out. "Ye Lang said indifferently.
"So you were just trying. I thought you knew, but that person is also strange. If you really killed him, wouldn't he be unlucky?" The Seventh Princess asked.
"Who knows what he's thinking? He's probably someone who wants money more than his life!" Ye Lang also didn't know this. Only that person himself knew.
However, this didn't seem to matter. Who cared about what it was for!
"Then let me ask you again. Why did you release those people who shouldn't have been released and keep these people?" The Emperor's second doubt.
"What do you mean I shouldn't have released them? Didn't you say anything? I saw that those people had such high integrity, so I let them go. There aren't many people like that! "This was Ye Lang's answer.
"…" The Emperor and the others were silent. They thought to themselves, I should have thought of this long ago. How could this kid think about who should be released or not? He only cared about whether he liked them or not.
Actually, asking this question was a waste of time!
However, things became very interesting later on. Although those people who were released had high integrity and were loyal to the country, they were executed one by one, and the countries began to suspect each other.
The reason was very simple. Although what they said was the truth, the situation was too absurd. It made everyone feel that they were lying, and even more so, that they had betrayed their country. They had come to spread false news for the Soaring Sky Empire.
If they had stayed here, perhaps after a period of time, their country would have used some conditions to exchange them, because they were all rare talents.
However, letting Ye Lang go so casually instead made them unable to gain trust, only suspicion and jealousy!
As for those who were locked up, they received the attention of their country. They felt that they were all good spies and scouts!
Loyal people were executed, and disloyal people might come to power. This could also indirectly cause the strength of their country to decline. From a certain point of view, it was a blow to the strength of the countries.
This situation made many people suspect that this was Ye Lang's goal from the beginning.
"That head from before, was it your alchemy item?"
"Yes, it only takes a moment to duplicate something exactly the same. Not only the head, but it can also duplicate other things." Ye Lang nodded.
As expected, this kid really had all kinds of strange things. Even a handwritten order … Right, a handwritten order …
"Let me ask you another question. Why do you have a handwritten order, and it's even blank? "This was a very serious question, and it had to be asked clearly.
"I bought it …" Ye Lang gave a very surprising answer, but it was very likely because he often bought some strange things.
"… Where did you buy it?" The emperor and the others were speechless.
"I bought it on Baker Street. There are a lot of fun things there. I accidentally saw this blank handwritten order, so I took it to trick people. Sure enough, it came in handy this time." Ye Lang replied, his tone was very relaxed and calm. It was as if he didn't know how serious this matter was.
"Is this handwritten order of yours real?" The emperor asked seriously.
"It's fake!" Ye Lang replied directly, very straightforward.
"… It's fake?" The emperor and the others looked at the handwritten order and felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't figure out what was wrong.
"Can't you see? This handwritten imperial jade seal's seal is intact! "Ye Lang said.
"Right, this is the real imperial jade seal. The bottom left corner is missing a little bit, but this one is intact." Everyone seemed to have woken up from a dream, and they actually forgot about this detail.
Although they saw the imperial jade seal every day, seeing it every day sometimes made them forget some small details.
No one would dare to fake an imperial jade seal, so they would even less pay attention to it!
"Who made this? How dare they carve the imperial jade seal!" The emperor said in a low voice. He would definitely investigate this matter.
"I don't know. This is the only one at the time. Besides, even if you know, there's no way to investigate." Ye Lang waved his hand.
"Why?" The emperor asked.
"This might be the snow paper left behind by someone later on."
"Hmm, that might not be the case, but there's a small proof on it. The person who made this handwritten order left a signature on this handwritten order, and his name and time were also written on it. I know you can't see it, but in these patterns, he used the patterns to cover up his words. Don't talk about others impersonating him, no one else could do such a thing other than him … "
"The world's most skillful hand, Hongye. "On a certain day …"
"…"
"The handwritten order made by Hongye is indeed worthy of being called the world's most skillful hand, to be able to pass off fake as genuine! This collection value is very high. Ye Lang, it's a waste to write on it like this! "Someone felt that it was a pity.
"Tsk, my words are more valuable than his. In the future, this handwritten order will be even more valuable because of my words!" Ye Lang shook his head, ignored the crowd, and left!
"…"
Ye Lang left, the two girls also left, but the Emperor and the others couldn't leave. They still had to find out who the person behind the curtain was, and for what reason …
Although they didn't dare to confirm these things, they could be sure that something was going to happen, so they had to strengthen their defenses, and this defense couldn't be known by others, for fear of alerting the enemy.
However, now they were having a headache about who to find to carry out these defenses. They needed someone they could absolutely trust, and this matter was very likely the work of an insider.
Ye Lang?!
Everyone first thought of Ye Lang, but they immediately rejected him. He wasn't suitable at all, and it was impossible for him to complete such a task.
Following that, everyone naturally thought of their children. No matter the time, children would always be the most trustworthy people. Even the Emperor would think of his own children first.
Of course, the Emperor also went through a process of elimination, choosing the children who were the least likely to betray him, and who could complete the task well …
Ye Lang was eliminated, Ye Lanyu was also eliminated, and the Seventh Princess was the same!
It wasn't that the three of them weren't trustworthy, but because the three of them belonged to the category of people who weren't suitable. Compared to this dark struggle, their hearts were simply too pure. Perhaps the people who were with Ye Lang would slowly be purified by his heart.
No matter what others said, it wouldn't affect the relationship between the three of them. Since young, the three of them had always been together, and had never separated. Although quarreling was a very common thing, the connection between the three of them grew deeper and deeper …
