Chapter 15: Secret Talks

"Chen Tianyu ......"

Gu Xi muttered the name and secretly wrote it down in his heart.

"Okay, since that's the case, Brother Gu will go to my Tianyi City to rest first. Yue Hai said with a smile.

"Thank you, Third Prince Yue. Gu Xi replied.

Immediately, Gu Xi and Yue Hai walked out of the forest, and seeing that their second brother and sister-in-law looked worried, Gu Xi nodded, revealing a reassuring smile.

"Third brother, the third son of Yue pulled into the forest, but did it make it difficult for you?" Gu Jin walked up with an anxious face.

"Second brother, don't worry, I've negotiated with Third Prince Yue, let's go to Tianyi City together. Gu Xi said.

"Not going back?" Gu Jin was stunned for a moment, his expression was a little stunned, he didn't expect that after his third brother and the third son of Yue had a detailed discussion in the forest, his attitude would actually change greatly.

But he is also a soft person, and besides, this trip dragged down the third brother, so he didn't say much in his heart.

"Don't go back, Third Prince Yue has already promised me that he plans to find a new errand for Second Brother in Tianyi City, which is definitely not worse than before!" Gu Xi said with a smile.

"Really," Gu Jin suddenly smiled, and immediately turned his head to look at Yue Hai, "Thank you, Third Prince!"

"No thanks, if you have trouble doing things in Tianyi City, you can still come to the City Lord's Mansion to find me. Yue Hai spit words quickly, and his pale face was full of smiles, not at all like the rumored gentlemen in the capital.

Then, everyone rested in place for a while, recovered their strength a little, and then walked to Tianyi City not far away.

Through the heavy forests, the group saw the gate of Tianyi City from afar, and their speed couldn't help but become faster.

It was already approaching dusk when I walked to Tianyi City, and there was an endless stream of people coming and going at the gate of a light gray city, and a group of cavalry riding red-maned horses looked at the door.

The leader is an old man with gray sideburns, under the light of the sunset, the old man's forehead oozes a little sweat, his right hand is on the scabbard, although he is more than half a hundred years old, his posture is still strong, looking ahead, old Longzhong, quite a veteran in the army.

And several soldiers beside the old man held heavy soldiers, wearing armor, and their eyes were as cold as ice full of murderous intent.

It can be seen that several soldiers are as quiet as water, and when they move like fire, they are definitely experienced in a hundred battles.

Just because a team of iron-blooded cavalry was here, the originally noisy city gate entered, but at this time, it was silent, and no one dared to make a sound.

Suddenly, the silence was broken, and in the distance there was the sound of horses' hooves from far and near, and a spy rode a fast horse to the old man.

The old man in battle armor looked at the spy with his eyes like a torch: "Is there any news of an adult?"

"No, I didn't see the carriage that the adults were riding on all the way. The spies hurriedly reported.

"Explore again!" As soon as the old man heard this, a trace of murderous intent burst out of his eyes, and he pointed forward.

"Yes!" the spy replied, and galloped away.

"If something happens to my lord on the road, I'm afraid that I will fight for this old life, and I will also kill the Chen family!" the old man narrowed his eyes slightly and muttered to himself.

Half an hour later, before the spies returned, a wagon loaded with grain drove up on the distant horizon.

The old man glanced at it slightly, but didn't care, and then the carriage stopped against the city gate, and several people walked down the carriage, one of which was a bloodless young man, but it really shocked the old man riding the red-maned horse.

"Your Excellency!"

The old man's voice was like thunder, and he hurriedly dismounted, ran to the gorgeously dressed young man, and knelt on the ground with a thud.

"I'm late for escort Hong'en, and I'm here to ask for my sin. The old man said, his face guilty.

"Elder Hong doesn't have to ask ......for guilt," Yue Hai shook his head and smiled, and hurriedly pulled the old man in battle armor up.

Afterwards, Hong En answered a few questions from Yue Hai before entering the city with the cavalry.

It was not until a few men and a group of cavalry entered the city that the atmosphere at the city gate gradually began to be agitated.

"Who is that young man, who can actually let General Hong take the cavalry under his name out of the city to escort him?"

"This is not the point, the key is that the old general Hong actually knelt down for the young man, could it be that he is a relative of the emperor?"

"Less here, the last time the five princes came, I didn't see General Hong go out of the city with cavalry to greet him, presumably the identity of the person who came this time must be extraordinary. ”

......

As soon as he entered Tianyi City, Yue Hai took the old man in green shirt and Steward Yue to follow Hong En to the City Lord's Mansion.

And Gu Xi and the second brother's family were settled by Yue Hai in a lavishly decorated inn.

The sky was dark, and after dinner, the second brother and sister-in-law went out for a stroll, while Gu Xi stayed alone in the inn, sorting out what happened today.

He remembered Hong's phrase 'my lord'.

Just when he was eating, he happened to hear the conversation of the little guy on the side, and learned that the old man wearing battle armor on the horse turned out to be a veteran with a very high status.

Gu Xi had read a lot of books since he was a child, so he naturally knew some strategies and strategies, at least in his opinion, Yue Hai was definitely not as simple as it seemed.

Yue Hai must have other identities!

Bang –

In an instant, the sound of the little maid knocking on the door interrupted Gu Xi's closed eyes and thoughts.

Gu Xi opened the door, the little servant lowered his head, and said, "Third Prince Yue invites the adults to Qingzhu Pavilion." ”

"Kiyoku Pavilion ......"

Gu Xi didn't know what Yue Hai was doing, so he immediately went back to the room and put on his clothes, and ordered the little servant to lead the way in front.

Soon, the little servant led the way, walked through a few noisy alleys, walked through a few avenues, and led Gu Xi to a bamboo forest in the city.

At this time, there were two bloody guards standing at the gate of the bamboo forest, and the saber pinned to the guard's waist faintly emitted a cautious cold light in the moonlight.

Gu Xi glanced at the two of them and frowned.

Although these two people do not have the cultivation of the body refining realm, the blood and qi in their bodies are more than one grade higher than ordinary people, and at least one punch can hit seven hundred catties.

"Adults, small ones can only be brought here, and the front is not a place where small ones can set foot. The little guy was also clever, took Gu Xi to the bamboo forest, turned around and left.

Without any scruples, Gu Xi walked directly into a dense bamboo forest in front of him.

The bamboo forest is very large, and being able to get such a realm in Tianyi City, Gu Xi's suspicion of Yue Hai is a little heavier.

After walking a few hundred meters, Gu Xi saw a pool of lake water surrounded by heavy stones, and in a pavilion in the center of the lake, he saw a thin figure drinking tea alone.

"Brother Gu, are you here......"

Yue Hai, who was sitting on the stone bench, got up, he changed his clothes, and wore a simple white dress on his body, his face was not as pale as before.

The two looked at each other from a distance across the lake.

Gu Xi stepped on the bridge in the courtyard in a few steps, came to Yue Hai's side, and sat on the stone bench.

"I don't know what happened when the third prince of Yue called Gu to come late at night?" Gu Xi asked with a smile.

Yue Hai shook his head silently, then picked up the teapot in his hand and poured Gu Xi a cup of tea.

The tea water enters the porcelain cup, and a few pieces of broken tea leaves float on the surface of the tea, and the faint fragrance escapes out, hovering at the tip of the nose for a long time, and fails to collapse.

Even a rural villager like Gu Xi who doesn't know how to taste tea can see that it is a good cup of tea at this moment.
