Chapter 324 Stargazer
Chapter 324 Stargazer
"Prime Minister, the Second Prince sent someone to deliver a letter."
"Hey, I'm afraid it's about that matter again... Trust me, I'll take care of it later, so you can leave first."
"Yes......"
Before he opened his eyes, Jiang Ming heard two voices in his ears - a cold and emotionless female voice, and a helpless and quite tired female voice, which sounded quite familiar.
He opened his eyes slightly and saw a charming girl who looked like Rita lying lazily on an exquisite wooden chair, supporting her head with her right hand and flipping through a bamboo scroll in her left hand casually.
"It seems that the plan to travel to another world bubble has been successful, but I don't know which world it is? Alas, although [Extreme] made up a dream with the game Honkai Impact 3rd before I reincarnated, it only contains the main storyline, not the world bubble..."
"So, in the process of exploring the world bubbles, I need to be cautious, cautious and cautious again, because I came here not only to devour these world bubbles, but I also need more manpower to lay the foundation for my conquest of the previous civilization."
"Although there are already enough people around me, as the saying goes, more is better, and it is always better to be cautious. But now it seems that this world has arranged a reasonable identity for me, so I don't have to hide."
Jiang Ming looked around while thinking about his plan in his mind, then he looked carefully and saw the girl who looked like Rita also looking at him and spoke with her thin lips.
"Are you looking for the person who delivered the letter just now?"
Jiang Ming lowered his head slightly: "I don't remember anyone delivering a letter just now. Aren't there only two of us in the room? I hope you can give me some advice."
"Very good, then let's talk about your mission this time." Rita's expression was cold and her tone was serious.
"Now that the previous emperor has passed away and the new emperor has not yet been appointed, the whole world is watching closely. The rise and fall of the empire depends on this move. If you have already had the corresponding awareness, then open the scroll in front of you."
Jiang Ming looked forward and saw a scroll, but his mind was full of thoughts.
"It seems that I have been involved in a royal dispute. After all, this is just a world bubble. The Honkai energy is not abundant. At most, it can only breed emperor-level Honkai beasts. However, this is not what I value, but talent. I wonder if there is such a talent in this world? At least Rita in front of me is not."
"Once I open the scroll, I will have to work for this Rita. But I can't refuse. How can an outsider like me intervene in such royal affairs? It seems that this Rita has a high status in this world bubble. Once I refuse, I'm afraid I will be murdered to silence her..."
Seeing Jiang Ming not moving for a long time, as if thinking, Rita frowned slightly: "Although you are an excellent chess piece, you are definitely not the only one, and definitely not the last one. As for those useless chess pieces, you should also know their fate."
Jiang Ming thought: "With my strength, the whole world can't do anything to me, but if I do that, it will make people panic, which is absolutely against my personal ethics, and those talented people may not be willing to help me. Even if I force control, what will Bianca and the others think?"
Thinking of this, Jiang Ming bowed respectfully to Rita and said, "I was rude just now. I will open it now."
After Jiang Ming opened the scroll, he found a person wearing green and white brocade clothes. Her hair was as white as winter snow, tied up with a turquoise hairpin. Her beautiful eyes were turquoise with a hint of red eyeshadow at the corners of her eyes. Her hands were made into the shape of a "yeah".
However, because the portrait is not a full picture, it is impossible to determine the height of the girl.
Obviously, it should have been a good painting, but the owner of the painting seemed to be in a bad mood, as if he was being forced.
"Who is this...?"
"This picture was drawn by the palace painter a few days ago when I celebrated the twelfth birthday of the Crown Prince Guanxing."
"Although the painting is good, the owner in the painting doesn't seem to be very willing to do it. Her face is gloomy. But she is also very cute. She has a kind of beauty that is obviously rebellious but still very obedient."
Seeing Jiang Ming smiling and praising her seriously, Rita couldn't help but feel a little fond of him. At least his tone was not as cold and ruthless as before.
"It seems that you have some foresight, but this matter has nothing to do with this mission. You just need to bring Master Guanxing back here safely."
"Master Stargazer...?"
"Well, according to the late emperor's will, Lord Guanxing will inherit the throne and build the country. Unfortunately, Lord Guanxing is still young, and many ministers have different opinions. Lord Guanxing left Huangyue City three days ago and his whereabouts are unknown... Although I have kept this matter secret, it is only a temporary measure."
Rita looked helpless and sighed softly.
"Leaving? This is an unwise move. In the eyes of outsiders, isn't this equivalent to shirking the responsibility that should belong to you? But I am an outsider after all, and I don't know the whole picture of the incident. I hope you can give me some advice." Jiang Ming said sincerely, because as long as he got more information, he could directly calculate it through the rules of the Zhidao universe.
"You are a chess piece that knows the big picture."
Rita finally took her eyes off the bamboo slips and glanced at him slightly. She had no interest in the chess pieces.
There are as many chess pieces like this as you want, but when you see Jiang Ming, your eyes widen slightly.
The man in front of her had a handsome face, a handsome face, a straight body like a gun, and was dashing and unrestrained. He was undoubtedly a handsome man. At least in Huangyue City, no one could compare to him.
"That's right. If this matter were known to the ministers, Lord Guanxing would lose all his prestige and it would be difficult for him to inherit the throne. Therefore, your mission is to find Lord Guanxing's whereabouts before others do, and bring him back to Huangyue City safely and bring him to me."
"May I ask if there will be any reward after I complete this task?"
Jiang Ming would not miss any opportunity to get information, and if he was not rewarded as a pawn, wouldn't he be a death squad? It seemed a bit fake.
Rita was slightly stunned when she heard this, thinking to herself that this chess piece was indeed so greedy, and such a good-looking face was wasted. If he had the intention of treason in the future, he would have to be killed, which was a pity.
Then he smiled softly and said, "If you can bring Lord Guanxing here safely, I will reward you with 30,000 taels of gold, ten official residences, and a hundred beauties."
But Jiang Ming frowned when he heard this: "My Lord, are you looking down on me? Although I like beauties, I already have a lover in my heart. Why do I need those hundreds of beauties? I don't want any of them! I just want to stay in Huangyue City and serve you loyally."
"Oh?" Rita was a little shocked at this moment, and kept looking at Jiang Ming with scrutiny. She saw that his attitude was sincere and his tone did not sound like a joke. Instead, it was extremely serious. There was no flaw from top to bottom, and he was completely loyal.
Who is Rita? She is the prime minister of Huangyue City, the highest administrative official below the monarch. She has seen countless people in her life. If the other party had lied at all, she would have seen it long ago, but Jiang Ming did not, so she thought that she underestimated him.
Without waiting for Rita to speak again, Jiang Ming took the initiative to bow: "It is a blessing for me to be able to work for you, sir. I hope you will believe in my ability. I will definitely bring you, sir, to see you safely."
"By the way, I dare to ask your name."
Afterwards, he awaited his fate.
Rita was silent for a while, then she smiled sweetly.
"I underestimated you. Go ahead. I'll be waiting for your good news. My name is Rita, and I'm the prime minister of this country. But remember, once you step out of this door, we will never meet again. Otherwise, you will have a hard time."
"I will definitely keep it in mind. I will leave now." Jiang Ming bowed again, put the scroll in his arms, and walked out of Rita's study.
