Chapter 139: Ecstasy Incense
On the way home, Li Yan was still regretting, "I knew that he was so cheerful, maybe he could be obedient with only half of today's treasure, what a mistake!" ”
Although he complained like this, he was still happy in his heart, urging the coachman to hurry up all the way, wanting to go back quickly and tell Gu Muzhi the good news.
Although he was running around outside these days, busy talking to people all day long, and getting them to join him and Gu Muzhi's camp, he had to admit that if Gu Muzhi hadn't made suggestions, his actions would not have been so smooth.
finally arrived at the courtyard where Gu Muzhi lived, and before he entered the house, he asked about a strange smell from afar. Li Yan's subordinates who followed him were also puzzled, "Strange, this smell is a little familiar, and I can't remember where I smelled it for a while." ”
"yes, yes, it tastes weird." For a while, everyone began to talk about it.
Li Yan gently closed his eyes and sniffed the smell gently, and after a while, he suddenly exclaimed: "Quickly cover your mouth and nose, this is the smell of ecstasy incense!" Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and everyone covered their mouths and noses after listening to Li Yan's words, but some people felt dizzy, and it was not a big deal.
After knowing that the smell was wafting out of Gu Muzhi's yard, Li Yan realized that something had happened to Gu Muzhi, and without thinking too much, he immediately rushed into the house. There was still Gu Muzhi in the courtyard, only two guards fainted at the door.
The subordinates were also considered acquaintances, and after a while, they brought two large basins of cold water and poured them on the heads of the two who fainted, and the two woke up, but they couldn't think of anything, let alone know Gu Muzhi's whereabouts, and the other people went into the house to check the situation.
The room was quite tidy, and there was no trace of a fight, Li Yan was standing at the door, watching all this and falling into deep thought, this matter was very strange, but for a while he couldn't tell what was wrong.
Now there are two possibilities for Gu Muzhi's disappearance: one is that someone put ecstasy incense and took Gu Muzhi away when she fainted, and there is another possibility that this ecstasy incense was made by Gu Muzhi himself, and he escaped after stunting the people at the door.
After thinking about it, he couldn't think of a reason, so he simply ordered his men to check and ask the people in the house if any outsiders had come after leaving.
Soon there were clues, a cleaning person had just finished cleaning the fallen leaves in the backyard this morning and was about to go back to rest, when he passed by Gu Muzhi's yard, he heard someone talking inside, he didn't dare to make a noise, let alone check the situation, but faintly heard that one of them was Zhou Xun's voice.
Now the truth of the matter became clear, it was Zhou Xun who took Gu Muzhi away.
Li Yan relied on his previous experience in confrontation with Zhou Xun to find that it was a little difficult to deal with him by relying on the strength of many people.
"Lord Wang, I didn't expect it, I'm here again." Zhou Xun took people to the Qin Palace, and he called it cooperation, but in fact, he just wanted to use Gu Muzhi in his hand as a threat.
"Zhou Xun, you are so bold, you dare to kill the emperor, and now the prince has sent people to hunt you down everywhere, you are really not afraid of death." Qin Boyong looked at him condescendingly, and couldn't help but snort coldly.
Zhou Xun listened to this, but he was not afraid, but became disapproving, "What is there to be afraid of a prince, Zuo is just a little hairy child, that is, my mother clan doesn't want this throne now, otherwise where would it be his turn to sit on the dragon chair and point fingers?" ”
Zhou Xun said it seriously, if Qin Boyong didn't know the truth, I'm afraid he would believe his words, but Qin Boyong was not as stupid as that.
"Say, what are you doing with this king again? Wronged the king again, and put the blame on the king? ”
Last time, he cleared himself of responsibility in front of the prince, and the prince's attitude immediately changed, and a steady stream of good things were sent to the house, but Qin Boyong did not refuse, on the surface, he took care of his whole body, but in fact, he gave all the good things rewarded by the prince to the people who were implicated in the uprising.
"What are these words, Lord Wang? Can I wronged you at will? Last time it was just a little joke, no, did you come to cooperate with the prince again this time? Zhou Xun couldn't understand what kind of set Qin Boyong was eating, after all, he had been rejected several times before to cooperate with him. This time, I was going to discuss with him first, and if he was still unwilling, he would threaten Gu Muzhi again.
"Hehe, you killed the emperor's people casually, what are you cooperating with this king? Besides, as you said, the throne is at stake. Qin Boyong's eyes were full of playfulness, and he played with the delicate ceramic teacup he picked up from the table.
"This..."Seeing that Qin Boyong had no intention of cooperating with him, Zhou Xun paused, changed his tone, and continued: "Then what if I tell the prince that Gu Muzhi is in my hands? ”
A trace of surprise flashed in Qin Boyong's eyes when he heard this, but then he returned to his usual appearance, and there was not the slightest joy or anger on his face.
"Gu Muzhi's life and death have nothing to do with this king, but if you have a way to treat her, it will be a favor to this king." Speaking of this, he leisurely poured tea into the teacup, tasted it gently, and did not forget to glance at Zhou Xun sitting below with his spare eyes when drinking tea, and his face was as ugly as he thought.
"Gu Muzhi has recovered her memory, you know, when she lost her memory in the past, this king still wanted to use her, but now it seems that there is no need for this at all."
Zhou Xun listened to Qin Boyong's words, the expression on his face became more and more ugly, Qin Boyong was really hard to guess, and now he didn't even use Gu Muzhi, and even said that he hated Gu Muzhi.
But now Qin Boyong made it clear that he would not be with him, and he had been rejected so many times in a row, Zhou Xun felt that his face was a little unbearable for a while, and he was sitting still and couldn't settle down, when he saw Xiao An entering the house in a panic.
"Childe, the officers and soldiers sent by the imperial court have come to Jingzhou. Now I'm coming to Qinfu. ”
Zhou Xun was shocked, although he said that he was not afraid of the people of the imperial court, but on the way to the Qin Mansion, he was careful to avoid places with officers and soldiers.
Hurriedly raised up, facing Qin Boyong's mocking gaze, knowing that his appearance was all in Qin Boyong's eyes, Zhou Xun no longer concealed it, immediately got up, and walked quickly with Xiao An.
"Little Six." Qin Boyong sat in place, thinking about Fang Cai's words repeatedly, and after a long time, he summoned Xiao Liu to his side.
But Qin Boyong hadn't instructed him to do anything, but Xiao Liu smiled and said, "Don't worry, the person who went to check is already on the way." ”
