After King Wei returned to the inn, he thought about what Jiang Feng said just now. Doubts couldn't help but reappear in my heart.

If it is true as Jiang Feng said, this is tantamount to giving Jiang Chen's handle into his own hands.

He brought Jiang Chen here this time to find an opportunity to deal with Jiang Chen.

He was still thinking about making excuses, but he didn't know the opportunity would come so quickly.

When he stepped into the door of the post house again, he saw an officer in charge of escorting him hurriedly over to greet him.

"Your Highness, King Wei, I just discovered that two people in our escort team suddenly disappeared. I don't know what happened. I came here to ask Your Highness if you want to look around."

King Wei thought of the two people Jiang Feng mentioned just now. If that is the case, then the key point must be to enter the Northern Kingdom through the mission.

Now that he's gone, it's impossible to find him again. He raised his hand to signal to the responsible official and said:

"If those two people leave on purpose, it will be difficult to find them again even if you look for them. This is not the Xuanwu Dynasty. I think it is better to see more than less. Let him go."

After the official retreated, he looked towards the room where Jiang Chen lived.

Seeing that the lights in Jiang Chen's room were still on, he hesitated for a moment, then knocked on the door and walked in.

At this time, Jiang Chen was reading leisurely with a book. When he saw King Wei come in, he quickly stood up and went to greet him and said:

"Your Highness, you have been traveling all the way these days. It has been so hard. Why haven't you rested yet?"

King Wei found a chair and sat down, and said to Jiang Chen:

"I was supposed to rest, but I saw that the light was still on at your window. I knew that you hadn't slept yet, and you couldn't sleep in this strange place, so I came over to chat with you for a while."

Jiang Chen looked at King Wei, who also sat down opposite him and said:

"Okay, I'll talk to you about whatever you want to talk about. I can't sleep anyway, so here's someone I can talk to."

King Wei said to Jiang Chen straightforwardly:

"The official who was responsible for escorting the gifts came to report that there were suddenly two people missing from our escort team. He asked me what to do about this matter and whether I should send someone out to look for it. I came here to ask for your opinion. , you are the deputy envoy in our team, and I want to hear your opinion."

Jiang Chen was so smart, he immediately understood King Wei's intention. He quickly said to King Wei:

"Does His Highness the King of Wei still want to ask me about this matter? They are just two small followers. If we go to find them in a big way, it will only make the officials in the northern country laugh at our jokes. As soon as we leave the country, If something like this happens, won't they accuse us of lax military management and incompetent management?"

After hearing this, King Wei nodded and said:

"I also think you are right. In a vast place like the North Country, you don't even know which direction they have gone. Even if you send people out to look for them, they will probably return in vain."

Jiang Chen nodded and said:

"King Wei and I thought of going together,"

King Wei said to Jiang Chen again;

"Have you been to the Northland before?"

Jiang Chen nodded to him and said:

"I've been here before. This year, by chance, I came with a friend."

King Wei then said to him:

"Could it be that the time you mentioned was the last time we met at the border?"

Jiang Chen nodded and said to him:

"Exactly that time."

King Wei continued to say to him:

"So, your friend is also from the North."

Jiang Chen nodded and replied to King Wei:

"Yes, he is originally from the Northern Kingdom. Just because of a chance, we met each other and became friends again. Why is His Highness the King of Wei so interested in my friend? Do you also want to get to know him? Wait for us When I return to the court, if I have the chance, I will introduce him to you again. He lived in our Marquis Mansion for a period of time not long ago."

King Wei said to him sympathetically:

"You have to know that you have such a friend from the North. We should bring him here when we come. At least he is a native friend here. When we have any difficult questions, we can teach him. "

Jiang Chen smiled and said:

"It's too late to say it now. We are already in the North Kingdom, but he is still in our Xuanwu Dynasty."
