196, fool through
Looking at the calm and upright young man in front of him, most of the doubts in the ghost marquis's heart were also dispelled.
He naturally didn't believe that Xia Gui could have strong enough self-control and acting skills to keep his parents calm after being tricked.
A kind smile appeared on the face of the ghost marquis, and he said with a pun: "You are really capable. ”
"Master Hou has won the award, and the small one is just to complete what he should do. Xia Gui kowtowed.
Facing Xia Gui's impeccable expression, a sense of boredom suddenly arose in the ghost marquis's heart.
The king of a dignified country, in order to test such a small steward, actually laid out such a complicated Hongmen banquet.
The ghost marquis said: "Gu Li, send these two back." I will imprison him in Jiuhou Villa and send people to guard him in heavy prison. ”
Gu Li smiled knowingly, bowed down and said, "Yes, Master Hou." ”
Of course, Gu Li knew the reason why the Ghost Marquis wanted to send him back, these two people were fakes of Yixiang, if they stayed here, I was afraid that they would be discovered by Xia Gui. Therefore, after the temptation, it must be brought back to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
The two subjects in the stone hut were quickly pushed into the prison cart, and in a shaky manner, the two drove out along the corridor.
The ghost marquis watched the two leave, and then said with a smile: "It's not early, this king will dine here at noon." ”
"It's an honor, Lord Hou. Gu Li was overjoyed.
Dining with the ghost marquis is a good opportunity to win over the powerful, and Gu Li will naturally not let it go. He hurriedly summoned his subordinates to arrange lunch.
After confirming that Gu Li and the Ghost Marquis had left, Xia Gui's figure shook slightly, and he leaned hard against the stone wall behind him.
Breathing in the dull air of the northern base, Xia Gui clenched his fists with a grunt.
In fact, he was not so sure whether the two people in this stone house were the real father and queen mother.
Although they have passed out in a coma, their bodies and appearances are indeed exactly the same as their fathers, queens and queens.
When he finished putting the Gu worms, there was still a trace of uncertainty in his heart, he wanted to go into the house to test the true identities of these two people, but this ghost marquis really did it, and he actually took people away!
The task was completed, but Xia Gui didn't relax in the slightest, and he dragged his stiff steps to the red area.
After such an incident, he felt compelled to talk to Uncle Waddin.
When he brushed open the heavy stone door, he saw a pair of concerned eyes.
Wodin stared at Xia Gui with a nervous look on his face.
"Your Highness, have they looked for you?" asked Wodin.
"Looked. Xia Gui closed the stone door and said with a gloomy face: "They also brought two subjects who looked very similar to their father and mother. ”
Walding nervously said, "And then?"
Xia Gui said: "I put the myelin-sucking Gu worm into their bodies. ”
Wodin was shocked, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face, "You seriously, put the marrow sucking Gu worm into their body!"
This general was so excited that the shackles on his wrists should be rattled, which shows his extraordinary surprise. Faced with Wodin's somewhat unusually surprised expression, Xia Gui almost thought that the general was so carried away by this bad news that he was delirious. Xia Gui said in a deep voice: "Is there a fraud?"
Waddin interrupted his rebuke and said in a deep voice, "Yes, Your Highness!
At that moment, Wodin revealed the conspiracy and tricks of the ghost marquis and Gu Li that he heard when he was pretending to be asleep.
"That's good. ”
Xia Gui exhaled slowly, and the big stone in his heart finally landed.
Although Xia Gui's mind was far more tenacious than ordinary people after going through a variety of tribulations, this kind of test was still too difficult for him to face two subjects who looked very similar to his parents.
Looking at the relaxed teenager, Waddin also sighed softly.
The temptation just now, although there is no thrill of hand-to-hand combat, can definitely be regarded as a life-threatening thrill.
For Xia Gui, he was likely to show his feet because of a thought, but he withstood the pressure and made the most rational and ruthless judgment, no matter what, it can be regarded as a foolish pass.
"Your Highness, it seems that they have begun to suspect you. Wodin said in a deep voice, "Your Highness must see me less often so as not to arouse suspicion." ”
"It's none of your business, it's me who needs to pay more attention. Xia Guidao.
It is indeed not surprising that the countries of all sides have friendly exchanges and frequent exchanges between the leaders of all countries.
I felt that Xia Gui's face was very familiar, which was normal.
Xia Gui took a deep breath, and in the following days, he had to be more and more careful.
......
Gu Li stopped all experiments an hour before the meal began, in order to reduce the ghost crying wolf howl and bloody aura in the northern base.
Ghost Hou, Gu Li, Thirteen Aunts and others enjoyed a sumptuous meal in this dark base. The rest of the stewards and experimenters were also to be sent to the makeshift cave for dinner.
The frightened Xia Gui casually picked up a few bites of food. The voices of other stewards and experimenters shouting praise to the ghost marquis kept coming from my ears, and I couldn't help but wonder if these people were doing it on purpose. This is only two stone rooms away from the dining room of the three high-level leaders, and the sound of their stinky feet and sycophants is also likely to reach the ears of the ghost marquis.
Xia Gui smiled bitterly, this group of people really thought too much. The ghost marquis didn't know them at all, how could he possibly know whose voice would be the loudest in the horse's ass.
After the sycophant was filmed, the routine began to talk about women. Of course, women who talk about ghosts, they have to keep their voices down.
"This thirteenth aunt is really beautiful. One said.
"I heard that Lord Gu Li and Aunt Thirteen have a ......," an experimenter accidentally said that he missed his mouth, and hurriedly swallowed back the "one leg" in the back.
However, everyone didn't seem to show surprise, but just smiled tacitly.
It's no secret either.
Gu Li likes Aunt Thirteen, a charming and gorgeous woman like Aunt Thirteen, and Aunt Thirteen seems to have an attitude of wanting to refuse and welcome, which is quite ambiguous.
To be honest, everyone really doesn't understand that Aunt Thirteen obviously likes little white faces, why would she give this stinky old man a false excuse?
"You say, Aunt Thirteen can look up to Master Gu Li, can she also look down on our Brother Liu?" said an experimenter with a smile in the corner of his eye.
Brother Liu is the steward sitting next to him, and he is the object of his stammering. This person has a good face, is in his prime, and does have a little bit of the charm of a little white face.
Hearing such beautiful words, Brother Liu shook his head and said humbly: "The affairs of the adults, can we talk more?
The former stuck out his tongue and continued to silently bow his head and pick up the rice.
Xia Gui smiled bitterly, it seems that this thirteenth aunt is really a coquettish and beautiful woman, every time the people below mention her, they always have a meaningful smile on their faces.
He had just picked up a few bites of his rice bowl when he suddenly saw a servant hurrying over.
"Turtle-sama, Turtle-sama. The servant walked up to him and smiled.
Xia Gui stood up and returned the salute with a smile, "This adult, what's the matter?"
The servant said, "Lord Gu Li asked me to inform you to dine together in the middle hall. Master Hou said that he wanted to see you. ”
Xia Gui was stunned, and summoned himself again?
Could it be that they showed something just now, which made them suspicious again.
The others were kept in the dark, not knowing Xia Gui's thoughts at this time, and they all looked up at Xia Gui with envy on their faces.
The others were kept in the dark, not knowing Xia Gui's thoughts at this time, and they all looked up at Xia Gui with envy on their faces. I secretly wondered why this benevolent brother was so lucky that he could get the opportunity to have lunch with the leader of the Fang Kingdom, the Ghost Marquis.
However, Xia Gui did not feel that this was good luck in his heart, on the contrary, the second round of tests for himself began again. Now that you know the other party's suspicion and distrust, you have to be more and more careful when you eat.
"Okay, I'll be right here. Xia Gui responded.
He dressed as well as he could, trying to make his appearance as polite as possible, and then followed the servant to the central hall.
Soon came to the central hall, only to hear the sound of staggered plans, the adults have already begun to eat.
Ghost Hou and Aunt Thirteen sat in the middle of the wine table, Ghost Hou had a majestic look on his face and didn't move the dishes and chopsticks much, while Aunt Thirteen held her cheek with one hand and played with a fragrant pear in front of her with the other. Sitting around the ghost marquis are Gu Li, Weng Peng and others, as well as a few unfamiliar experimenters, who are also Gu Li's right-hand men, and they are fortunate to participate in the dinner today. Gu Li and Weng Peng kept pouring wine into the cups of the adults, and the smell of wine and meat lingered in the middle hall.
It seems that Gu Li doesn't often dine with the ghost marquis, and today he looks a little restrained.
Not to mention Weng Peng, who has always loved fine wine, he didn't dare to let go of the drink, his hand holding the wine glass trembled, and even some wine spilled out of the glass.
"See Lord Hou, see Mrs. Hou Ye, see your lords. Xia Gui stood outside the banquet and saluted respectfully.
"Take a seat. Gu Li smiled and motioned for Xia Gui to sit beside him.
Xia Gui was not in a hurry to take a seat, but continued to salute: "The little one has been in the village for a few months, and it is really a blessing for three lives to be able to have lunch with Hou Ye, and I also ask Hou Ye and all the adults to take care of it." ”
Since he was a child, he was born in a nobleman, and he is quite familiar with red tape, and even the posture of bowing is much better than others, which also makes people feel good at first sight.
"Sure enough, the hero is a teenager. The Ghost Marquis smiled at him and invited him to take a seat.
Obviously, as the monarch, in front of the servants whose status is huge and different from his own, this marquis behaves more and more amiable and unassuming.
The thirteenth aunt also touched the fragrant pear, and looked at this extraordinary young man with a smile, her eyes revealing aunt-like love.
Seeing that the faces of these two bigwigs were relaxed, Xia Gui sat down.
The table was full of sumptuous fish and meat, and it seemed that Gu Li had also put a lot of thought into welcoming the leader. However, Xia Gui is ready not to eat, and he is not here to eat at this dinner, mainly to see how the conversation goes.
