Chapter 319: Tian Zong talks about the causes and consequences, Sisi’s heart trembles with fear

Translator: 549690339

Liu Sisi clearly hadn’t expected that her ordinary action would cause Nan Tianzong to think deeply.

She was holding a knife, quickly peeling the fruit.

She casually answered with her mouth full, “It’s just peeling fruit, what’s so difficult about it? By the way, didn’t you say you wanted to analyze the situation for me? Hurry up and tell me!”

Nan Tianzong pulled his thoughts together and said indifferently, “I think it must be related to the current situation in the world, and to the bandits on Heilong Mountain.”

“How so?” Liu Sisi raised an eyebrow!

“The origin of those bandits on Black Dragon Mountain dates back thirty years ago. Back then, the former Crown Prince…”

Nan Tianzong continued to recount the past to Liu Sisi.

Liu Sisi impatiently interrupted him, “I’ve heard this story from others already. So what? What does this have to do with me?”

Nan Tianzong was silent for a moment, then continued in a low voice, “Time is like a butcher’s knife! The current Emperor, who had originally ascended the throne, is now old and fragile. Although he has many descendants, infighting continues. Especially two years ago, after the Crown Prince had ascended to the Emperor’s position, the position of the Crown Prince remained vacant, causing the princes to fight bitterly amongst themselves. At this moment, gathering strength from all sides to strengthen their own forces has become the top priority for each prince. Naturally, the forces on Heilong Mountain have come under the attention of those interested.”

Liu Sisi frowned, “I’m not interested in what you’re saying. What I want to know is something directly related to my own interests.”

“The power of Heilong Mountain is growing stronger and stronger, and it is like a surprise troop. Whichever prince manages to take control of it will become even more powerful, with twice the results for half the effort. But the forces of Heilong Mountain have always been like an iron barrel, impervious to outsiders trying to penetrate and learn its secrets. Just at this time, someone who was originally on the death list of Heilong Mountain left Heilong Mountain alive, naturally attracting the attention of various parties… ”

“Hss!”

Liu Sisi took a deep breath!

She finally understood the key point. So that’s what it was all about!

“So, in everyone’s eyes, I have become bait to lure out the big fish of Heilong Mountain? That’s why the Gan Family made their move?”

Liu Sisi gritted her teeth.

“No! No, no, no! You’re wrong!”

Nan Tianzong gently waved a finger, “It’s more than just the Gan family who have made their move! Think carefully, who around you has been acting strangely lately?”

Has there been anything unusual?

Liu Sisi stopped the action of digging out the pineapple eyes and fell into deep thought.

There had been no abnormalities among the fellow villagers who came to deliver YingEr’s engagement gifts a few days ago, but Madam Gan Senior, Heir Luo, Prefecture Princess Luo Thirteenth, County Magistrate Su, and… Zuo Xingyu, should not have appeared on the guest list!

Liu Sisi secretly smacked her lips, then looked up, “You mean the two—Heir Luo and Prefecture Princess Luo?”

Nan Tianzong nodded and shook his head, “Actually, I don’t know either. But, I did hear Madam Gan Senior mention something, so I thought I’d remind you. These people hope to find someone through you. So, you won’t be in danger for the time being. However, once you are in danger, it will be fatal! Remember! Remember!”

Liu Sisi put down the pineapple in her hand, looked up at him, her eyes particularly deep.

“Brother Nan, what about you? Are you one of them? ”

On the day of YingEr’s engagement, Nan Tianzong had also been there, and he knew the inside story. If anyone was most likely, it should be him, right?

“If it were me, do you think I would be so stupid as to tell you about it? Think about it yourself!”

Nan Tianzong smiled gently and gracefully, then picked up the peeled pineapple, following Liu Sisi’s next action, “Come on! Let me slice it for you, then soak it in salt water and it’ll be ready to eat.”

Liu Sisi naturally did not stop.

“These people want to get to know the bandits on Heilong Mountain through me?… No! It’s the forces on Heilong Mountain! Is there anything more absurd than this? I don’t even know a single person there!”

As for why that group of people initially spared her life, she had no idea!

Liu Sisi had a headache.

Nan Tianzong shook his head with a smile: “Even I wouldn’t believe it if you said that. So, be more alert when you go out in the future. But don’t worry, if these people wait for a long time without result, they will naturally take the next step. You can just counter their moves as they come. Here! I’ve peeled this pineapple, hurry up and eat.”

Liu Sisi did not doubt his words and confidently took it, picking up a small piece of pineapple and putting it into her mouth.

“It’s better if they take action, what I’m afraid of is them continuing to drag on, and no one is willing to make the first move!” If that were the case, it would be extremely frustrating.

She picked another small piece, angrily put it into her mouth and chewed.

“By the way! I’ll give this to you. Have someone test it, and if it’s feasible, we’ll have another shortcut to making a fortune.”

“What is this? It looks like…text?” 𝔣𝖗𝔢𝔢𝔴𝖊𝖇𝖓𝔬𝔳𝖊𝔩.𝔠𝔬𝖒

Nan Tianzong took the object she had played with previously from her hand and looked at it from left to right.

Liu Sisi was eating happily: “It’s movable type. Find some trusted people and have them test this out. Remember! They must be reliable!”

Nan Tianzong’s eyes flickered at her words: “Alright! I’ll tell you once the test results come in.”

Liu Sisi nodded with full confidence, not fearing the test for this time-tested item.

At that time, she didn’t understand Nan Tianzong’s look in his eyes. It wasn’t until she got on the carriage, swaying back and forth, and saw the accumulated snow along the way melting away, that Liu Sisi suddenly slapped her forehead.

“Ah! — So that’s it!”

How terrible, her mistake was so huge that she didn’t know how to cover it up anymore!

When she returned home, Liu Sisi immediately told Di Yelei about the matter. However, she didn’t see the look of surprise she was expecting. Instead, Di Yelei handed her a gilded invitation card.

Liu Sisi took the invitation with a look of suspicion, and she started to laugh as soon as she opened it.

“Madam Gan Senior invites me to attend the Flower Admiring Banquet held by the County Magistrate’s wife tomorrow. It is said that the County Magistrate’s wife received a pot of golden chrysanthemums from Luoyang a few days ago, and the flowers are now in full bloom, beautiful and vibrant. Therefore, she especially invites the two of us to the feast. Haha, their actions are indeed quick!”

Liu Sisi’s mocking expression deepened.

Di Yelei also looked over the invitation: “The things this wealthy family uses are indeed extraordinary! This invitation alone is so valuable, it seems the income of being a County Magistrate is really not small.”

Liu Sisi didn’t respond, but just smiled: “I’m afraid the intention is not for wine! Since they went out of their way to send the invitation to our home, we should at least go and take a stroll.”

“Hmm! You can leave this matter to me. I will find the truth as soon as possible, so that everyone can stop being frightened when they come and go. It’s so uncomfortable!”

Di Yelei vowed!

“You said it yourself! By the way, which day is the Flower Admiring Banquet?” Liu Sisi asked casually.

Di Yelei took a closer look at the gilded invitation in his hand: “The time is very soon, just the day after tomorrow! That day happens to be the Laba Festival!”

“The day after tomorrow? That’s really quick.” Liu Sisi murmured. It seemed she had to prepare in advance for the things needed for the Laba Festival as well.
