Sect Masters Retirement Routine - Chapter940

!!!

Hearing Wang Ye's words, Gao Tianci froze and his eyes widened.

He didn't expect Wang Ye to be so shameless.

He actually dared to say such words.

He looked at Wang Ye and said, "You dare to threaten me?!"

"Eh …"

Hearing Gao Tianci's words, Wang Ye hurriedly shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you are wrong …"

"I'm just telling Your Majesty about my bad habits …"

"How can you call that a threat?"

As he spoke, Wang Ye's face was filled with a wretched smile.

Seeing Wang Ye's wretched smile, Gao Tianci immediately lost his temper.

When he was in the capital, he often traveled incognito and visited places like theaters and teahouses.

It could be said that he knew a lot about these matters.

Take the emperor of the previous dynasty as an example. There were many rumors about him among the people.

Those rumors about the talented brothel girls were nothing.

The most ridiculous thing was that a few days ago, he saw a book in a teahouse called "The Story of the Previous Emperor and I".

In a self-narrating tone, the novel described a woman who got to know the emperor of the previous dynasty by the Mingjing Lake.

She gave birth to his child and never married. She waited for 18 years before finally dying.

The entire story was full of ups and downs. The writing style was fierce and the description was bold.

Gao Tianci's face turned red.

If Wang Ye were to find someone to write such a script and publicize it, then his illustrious reputation in this lifetime would be completely ruined!

"Shopkeeper Wang, don't say anymore …"

Thinking of this, Gao Tianci patted Wang Ye's shoulder and said, "You've done a good deed …"

"It's just a gold medal …"

"I'll give it to you!"

Gao Tianci's face was full of smiles.

"Oh my!"

Hearing this, Wang Ye hurriedly said, "Then this commoner will have to thank Your Majesty for the reward …"

"Your Majesty's words are like gold and jade. You can't go back on your words!"

At this point, Wang Ye's face revealed a wretched smile.

"I won't go back on my words …"

Gao Tianci shook his head and said, "By the way, Shopkeeper Wang, I have something to ask you …"

"Have you heard about the story of me and the previous emperor?"

What did I do with the previous emperor?!

As soon as he said that, Wang Ye and Agy were stunned.

The two of them exchanged glances.

There was a hint of shock in his eyes.

Previously, Constable Zhao had written dozens of pages of a pornographic book, and it just so happened to include this story.

Now that Gao Tianci mentioned it, the two of them were stunned.

First, it was the script of the sage's Yuan Yang deficiency.

Now, it was a dirty book.

When he returned to Jinling, he had to take a good look. What the hell was going on?

"I've heard of it before …"

Thinking of this, Wang Ye looked at Gao Tianci and said, "Your Majesty, is there anything I can help you with?"

"It's nothing much …"

Gao Tianci shook his head and said, "The person who wrote this script is a talent …"

"And every word in the book is the name of Jinling …"

"If Shopkeeper Wang knows this person, I'd like to meet him!"

Speaking of this, Gao Tianci's face showed a trace of longing.

Seeing this scene, Wang Ye and the others couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths.

Writing such a dirty book made the current emperor want to meet him. Constable Zhao was indeed a talent …

Thinking of this, Wang Ye was about to say something.

"Report!"

At this moment, a shout came from outside.

Following that, a soldier wearing black armor and a steel sword at his waist came in.

He half-knelt in front of everyone and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, General …"

"Several ships on the canal have sunk, causing the merchant ships to jam here for more than 20 li …"

"The ships prepared are blocked at the harbor and can't move!"

Hearing this, Gao Tianci and Huang Pusong's expressions changed drastically.

After the Dragon Head's assassination.

Gao Tianci didn't dare to stay in Suzhou for too long, afraid that something unexpected would happen.

The Dragon Head had been in business for many years and could even bribe the Suzhou government.

If he continued to stay here, who knew what would happen?

Because of this, Gao Tianci decided to take a ship from the canal back to the capital tomorrow morning.

"What?!"

Hearing this, Huang Pusong, who had been silent all this time, said, "What the hell is going on!?"

"Wasn't everything fine when the ships were prepared?!"

"How did it suddenly become like this?!"

As he spoke, Huang Pusong's face showed a trace of shock.

"According to the merchant on the sunken ship …"

Hearing Huang Pusong's words, the soldier said, "Four hours ago, they were traveling normally on the canal …"

"Suddenly, they heard a sharp whistle …"

"When they came out to investigate, they saw sword light pouring down like the Milky Way. Immediately after, several ships were cut in half …"

"They relied on their proficiency in the water to escape, but the merchant ships had already sunk in the canal."

"The ships behind them were also blocked in the canal …"

At this point, the soldier lowered his head.

Hearing these words, everyone looked at each other.

A Milky Way sword qi had cut in several merchant ships and caused the canal to jam.

Clearly, someone didn't want them to leave the Suzhou government!

"How long will it take to clear the canal?"

At this time, Gao Tianci was still calm. He looked at the soldier in front of him and asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there are many sunken ships and heavy cargo. They are lying in the canal and can't move …"

Hearing Gao Tianci's question, the soldier said, "It will take seven days to salvage the sunken ships …"

"Not to mention the dense flow of merchant ships on the canal. In just four hours, it will jam more than twenty li …"

"It will take at least forty days to completely clear the canal!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present frowned.

Forty days …

Almost a month and a half.

In just a few days, it was enough to cause a shocking change.

Forty days.

Even if the Dragon Head recruited new people, it would be enough to launch another assassination!

"Blocking the canal and sealing the fastest waterway …"

Thinking of this, Gao Tianci narrowed his eyes, "It seems that these people don't plan on letting me leave Suzhou alive!"

Saying this, his gaze turned and he said, "If the canal is blocked, we will take the sea route. I don't believe they can block the East Sea!"

"Your Majesty, you must not!"

Hearing this, Huangpu Song said, "The East Sea is turbulent and the waves are high. It is not as safe as the canal …"

"If the bandits chase us on the sea, it will be even more dangerous!"

"Your Majesty, you must not take this risk!"

Huangpu Song knelt on one knee, his words full of dissuasion.

"If the sea route won't work, should we take the land route?!"

At this time, Gao Tianci's tone changed and he continued, "It will take several months to get to the capital from here!"

"Since the other party has blocked the waterway, how can they not set up an ambush on the land route?!"

"When the time comes, the people will be tired and the horses will be tired. It will be even more dangerous!"

Hearing this, Huangpu Song was about to speak.

At this time, Agy said, "That's enough …"

"If there is no other way, follow us back to Jinling …"

"Jinling's waterways are developed. When the time comes, cross from Liuyun to the river and then the Grand Canal …"
