268. Mutual Help (2)

After joking, Gao Ran only smiled lightly and waited for the two of them to have "laughed" enough, and then immediately returned to the topic while the atmosphere had not cooled down.

I saw that she looked indifferent, but her tone was serious, and she asked Ye Yu directly without concealment: "Uncle Shi, since you have been brewing for so many years, you must know everything about the specific situation of Jiaohuang and his heirs now, right?!"

"I don't know, you have a suitable candidate in your heart?—— I mean, once the Jiaohuang Emperor is killed by you, in order to stabilize the government, among his heirs, do you think there is a prince who is suitable for the throne?

"Or do you have someone else in mind?"

"What do you mean......" was asked so bluntly by Gao Ran, Ye Yu didn't intend to pretend to be stupid, so even if he didn't answer her directly and directly, the tone of his voice when he asked her back, but he also acquiesced in Gao Ran's speculation - Ye Yu also admitted in disguise that she did have all the specific information she should have. It's just that she didn't know what Gao Ran's motive was for asking her like this, so she asked this question.

And Gao Ran naturally heard Ye Yu's unexpressed concerns, so he explained very consciously: "Oh, that's the case...... I've thought about it, since our only common enemy is Gao Liwen, and because of your relationship, I shouldn't intervene in him before you take revenge...... However, if you really wait until you take revenge before you take action, I am afraid that by then, the situation will have already become more favorable to him because of his pre-deployment!

"If that's the case, then I'm afraid that if I want to protect the medical valley in his hands at that time, the hope will be very slim!

"What's more, I'm not Qiu Yueze himself after all, I can't really use all of Tiange's power in the Banana Country to deal with Gao Liwen's forces in the Banana Country just to protect the Medical Valley, regardless of the interests of the Heavenly Pavilion. Doing so is not good for Tiange and for me!

"So, the only feasible way is to do the 'same' thing that Gao Liwen is doing right now before you even do it!"

"The same thing?"

"Well, since he is determined to win the Banana Country, then he must have secretly installed a lot of his people in the territory of the Banana Country and in the court of the Banana Country in the past few decades!

"And what we have to do, in addition to secretly using those Jianghu forces scattered in the Jiaoguo Kingdom that happen to be hostile to the Jianghu forces controlled by Gao Liwen to deal with them, we also have to instigate the prince who is most likely to become the next Jiaohuang to secretly investigate the possible spies in the court, and use the hands of the prince to first eradicate some of Gao Liwen's minions planted in the Jiaoguo court!

"On the other hand, I will also help the prince when necessary—— for example, before you kill the Banana Emperor, I will first hand over to him the list you gave me in the honor of Tiange, so that he can secretly investigate the spies of dissidents, and after you kill the Banana Emperor, when Gao Liwen begins to take action, I will use the reputation of Tiange to help the prince resist Gao Liwen's threat to him in time—— so that I can not only stabilize his government for the prince, but also add a powerful ally for Tiange's growth in the Banana Kingdom—— At least, before the prince really consolidates his power, choosing Tiange is his best choice!

"It's just ......"

Speaking of this, Gao Ran couldn't help but think of some digressions, and while thinking of them, she muttered in a low voice as if she was talking to herself as if she was deliberately trying to use this "self-talking" method to let them both hear it: "It's just that in this way, I seem to have taken another step forward in the direction of the fate of 'prosperity and decline'......

"I really don't know, is this good or bad? When Qiu Yueze knows, will he blame me?

Anyway, even if I don't intervene in this foot, if Tiange wants to gain a long-term foothold in the Banana Country, it is destined to grow! And if it wants to grow, it must be recognized and vigorously relied on by the Banana Kingdom—— after all, it is originally an all-inclusive organization of the imperial court and the rivers and lakes, and it will not live long without either side......

"Therefore, if I really do anything unfavorable to the Heavenly Pavilion, I think it will only be a date that will be greatly advanced for it to face sooner or later, and to fight against the imperial court's jealousy of it......"

After muttering in a low voice like this for a while, Gao Ran raised his head again, looked at Ye Yu and continued to return to the main topic and said: "But no matter what kind of situation the Heavenly Pavilion and the Imperial Court will eventually evolve into, at least when the new Banana Emperor still needs to rely on the power of the Heavenly Pavilion, I will ask the Heavenly Pavilion to abide by the bottom line of 'never interfering in the internal affairs of the Jiao'!"

"So, as for how they will 'purge' within the imperial court at that time, that's their own business! I think that in this way, my deal with the new banana emperor should be beneficial and harmless, and can benefit each other! Then he should not refuse—— of course, if all this is to be successful, there must be a premise! That is: I must pass on the idea of cooperation with me to the 'suitable' person at the 'right' time, in the 'right' capacity, and in the 'right' way!

"Of course, if you already have someone else in mind besides someone from the Banana royal family, that's fine! - As long as the information you give is sufficient!

"But in any case, if you really want to cooperate with me, then please show your sincerity too! Share with me all the useful information you have gathered over the years—— including all the little-known information you have about Gao Liwen!

"You know, after all, my essential purpose is to protect yourself! So, you can't just care about yourself and not give me something to repay you, right?

"Don't forget, even if you die and Yigu is saved, as long as you can't completely eradicate Gao Liwen's forces and can't take this opportunity to really kill him, after that day, I will still face the threat he may have against me at any time—— you can't stand idly by!

"Uncle Shi, I think you understand what I mean, right?"

"Oh, I see, you're not asking too much. Besides, by then, all of us will be dead, and it will be useless to keep them. If it works for you, what's the harm to you......?

"Just what?"

"It's just that you have to promise me that if I miss, you must avenge me!"

"Ah?!Uncle and Auntie, you're too unkind, aren't you?!Your personal grievances, you can just take revenge yourself. It's not easy for me to just clean up the aftermath for you! You still want to drag me into the water and avenge you?! Why?! Don't tell me that you will die without turning a blind eye! I don't care!"

"Oh, of course I know that! But, have you forgotten that Gao Qiao is still in my hands!"

"Qiao'er?!" In an instant, Gao Ran's heart chuckled unconsciously!

I think that at the beginning, the reason why she deliberately arranged Qiao'er by Ye Yu's side was to use Ye Yu to protect her, and secondly, she also wanted to use Qiao'er to let Ye Yu know her existence when there was a suitable time in the future, so that Ye Yu would know about her Gao Ran's existence, and take the opportunity to get closer to their relationship - and the ultimate purpose of this was also because Gao Ran at that time mistakenly thought that the person Zhao Yi cared about most in her heart was Ye Yu, so she would try to get closer to the relationship between herself and Ye Yu, in order to indirectly "coerce" Zhao Yi to fear her if necessary!

But she didn't think about it, only now, she suddenly realized that the truth of the matter was much more complicated than she thought!

What's even worse is that, in fact, for Zhao Yi, her importance is actually far greater than Ye Yu! And her previous small actions were not only in vain, but also added a lot of very tricky troubles to herself, but she was unable to get rid of!

Originally, Gao Ran had already thought that these were the retribution she deserved for her bad intentions at the beginning! But she didn't think that this Ye Yu was really despicable!

However, because of this, she was surprised to find that the two of them were quite similar!

In order to prevent Zhao Yi from getting into danger, Gao Ran did not hesitate to use the survival of the medical valley to persecute him, and Ye Yu, in order to succeed in revenge, did not hesitate to use the life of innocent Qiao'er to blackmail Gao Ran promised to ensure that her revenge succeeded—— they were all the same! They would not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of innocent people in order to achieve their own goals, but they were not ashamed—— but Gao Ran was to save the lives of the people she cared about, and Ye Yu was to ensure that she could succeed in revenge!

But, in essence, what is the difference between them? Aren't they all so easy to threaten the lives of innocent people in order to satisfy their own selfish interests?

"Come to think of it, if it weren't for the kindness of Yigu to her, then for revenge, she would definitely not hesitate to pull her master and little uncle into the water to increase her chances of successful revenge!" As soon as he thought of this, Gao Ran couldn't help but mock himself secretly in his heart: "Heh, but what qualifications do I have to say that she is despicable? Aren't I the same as her?—— for her own purposes, she doesn't care about the lives of innocent people at all......

Thinking about it like this, Gao Ran was able to accept Ye Yu's threat to himself calmly. - Just because, in an instant, she felt that she seemed to understand: the pain in Ye Jue's heart of "no love, only for revenge" has actually become the only reason to support her to survive so far—— whether she wants to or not, whether she wants to or not, she is actually unable to take care of other things anymore!

"Okay! I promise you! In exchange, tell me how 'Seven' persuaded you to accept Qiao'er in the first place? Is there any ulterior deal between you? Besides, even if I keep Qiao'er by your side, isn't there still 'Seven' secretly protecting you? Why? Could it be that he turned against him so quickly, and in turn used Qiao'er to threaten me? However, it seems that now is not the most opportune time, right......?! You shouldn't be that stupid, right?"

"'Seven'? oh—you're talking about the Heavenly Pavilion guard who came forward for you to persuade me to take over Gao Qiao, right?"

"Hmm. Although Ye Yu asked him so rhetorically, Gao Ran also guessed the truth of seven/eight points, but for the sake of prudence, he still listened to her patiently...... 10810
