Chapter 57 Jingxiu Heavenly City and Chu Capital
As the political and cultural center of the Chu State, Jingcheng is naturally prosperous.
Coupled with the luxurious and erosive life of the Emperor of Chu in recent years, Jingcheng is full of purple and gold fans.
And many opportunistic ministers are in order to curry favor with the Chu Emperor, doing everything possible to collect all kinds of jewelry and jade or beautiful women to curry favor with the Chu Emperor, so Jingcheng is full of all kinds of absurd and strange things for a while.
However, it is said that the most famous place in Jingcheng is Yancui Pavilion, which is a place where celebrities often linger and forget to return.
At this time, the singing and dancing of Yancui Pavilion was leveling, and many celebrities came here, they drank and laughed, but their eyes were obsessively staring at a beautiful woman on the high platform, all of them admired.
This beautiful woman is dancing at the moment, dancing elegantly and gracefully to the sound of music.
Her beauty and figure are all one in a million, and she is obviously a beautiful character.
This person is none other than Sun Qian, the flower card of Yancui Pavilion, who is a woman with extremely means and skills.
She lingered among the civil and military generals in Jingcheng all the year round, and often went in and out of the prince's mansion to perform dances for him.
Don't look at her as just a weak woman, but she has a lot of energy, so many officials who go to Jingcheng on business will use her to get through relationships and make friends with important ministers.
Therefore, Yancui Pavilion has also become a place that many people are afraid of, because she has someone behind her, so she can mix in Jingcheng.
And she has a secret that no one knows, and she never mentions it to anyone.
That is, she was not originally from the Chu State, she was an orphan girl adopted by Murong Sheng, and she was sent to infiltrate the Chu State as early as five years ago and make friends with the ministers, in order to keep abreast of the situation in the Chu State at any time.
And this time she received a message from Murong Sheng personally, which was to let her get close to a son named Gu An.
When she received this task, she also had a lot of doubts in her heart.
Who is this person named Gu An? Why is it worth caring so much about his father-in-law Murong Sheng!
So she sent someone to inquire about this person's information, and she was also very surprised at this look.
It turns out that this Gu An is really an incredible character.
The son of Gu Lun of the Gu family of the Southern Tang Dynasty, he was now made a baron by the Southern Tang Emperor as an envoy to the Chu State as the envoy of this peace.
And it is quite extraordinary, not only learned his father's art of war and strategy, but also can write poetry and books, both civil and military, is a real young genius.
Gongsun Qian was therefore also very curious about what kind of person this Gu An was.
After a dance, Gongsun Qian smiled and said to the people below: "Thank you for supporting the slave family, there will be more exciting programs for you later!" ”
"Gongsun Qian!"
"Gongsun Qian!"
Everyone below shouted loudly, and their expressions were agitated, if it wasn't for a high platform here to stop them, I'm afraid they would have rushed over a long time ago.
Gongsun Qian also looked indifferent when she saw this scene, obviously she had long been accustomed to it.
She'd been in this situation countless times, so she didn't have much of an excited expression.
And there are really no people down there who are the ones she looks at.
When she returned to the backyard, a maid found her and said to her, "Miss, an envoy is coming!" ”
This maid is a personal maid who followed her from Yan Kingdom, so she knows a lot of things very clearly, and Gongsun Qian also trusts her, and many important things will be handed over to her to do.
Gongsun Qian was stunned when she heard this, what did her father-in-law do when she sent someone to find her? However, she was still going to meet the messenger to see what her father-in-law had ordered: "Qingmei, where is that person?" ”
Qingmei soon took Gongsun Qian to an inaccessible room, where there was a sunspot man.
After he saw Gongsun Qian, he hurriedly saluted and greeted: "Mo Lan has seen Miss!" ”
That's right, he called Gongsun Qian Miss, because Gongsun Qian is Murong Sheng's righteous daughter, and Murong Sheng has no children and no daughters, so he also loves this adopted daughter very much.
If it weren't for the fact that the affairs of the Chu State were so important, Murong Sheng would not have sent her here, of course, on the one hand, it was also because Gongsun Qian was indeed very good.
Gongsun Qian nodded at Mo Lan, and then asked, "What do you need to explain to me when my father-in-law sent you to Chu State?" ”
Mo Lan didn't dare to slack off on Murong Sheng's explanation, so he replied respectfully: "If Miss Hui is there, Xiangye asked me to pass on a message to you this time!" ”
Then Mo Lan repeated Murong Sheng's original words to Gongsun Qian: "Xiangye explained that the swallowtail task has failed, let Miss find a way to prevent the harmony between Nantang and Chu State!" ”
Gongsun Qian was a little surprised when she heard the news of the failure of the swallowtail mission, but she understood that swallowtail was an extremely powerful assassination stop under her father-in-law, but she didn't expect them to fail, so she exclaimed, "What? Dovetail also failed! ”
Mo Lan also said very heavily: "This is the news a few days ago, Lord Swallowtail has been sacrificed!" And Lord Yanshu has also disappeared, so it should be more than lucky! ”
It wasn't until she heard Yan Shu that Gongsun Qian's expression finally had a trace of sadness.
Yan Shu has always been her reliance in the Chu State, and has resolved crises for her countless times. I didn't expect it to be ...... this time
Gongsun Qian showed a sad look.
Mo Lan sighed: "Hey, the Southern Tang Mission suddenly prepared for some reason this time, and they were caught off guard by beating Lord Swallowtail, which led to the destruction of their entire army!" ”
Gongsun Qian also suddenly thought of something when she heard this, so she looked at Mo Lan and asked, "Southern Tang Mission, isn't it Gu An?" ”
Mo Lan nodded, this matter has now been spread in Jingcheng, and the Southern Tang Dynasty is about to come to the Chu State to make peace, and the envoy is Gu An.
Mo Lan said: "Well, it is indeed Gu An and them!" ”
Now the entire Jingcheng is looking forward to the arrival of Gu An and his party.
This is a major event in the Chu State, because it is the Southern Tang princess Xiang Jue, the prince of the Chu State, who is about to marry, is about to arrive in Jingcheng.
The people of Chu are still very happy about this matter, because it is the Southern Tang Dynasty, the well-deserved overlord of the Central Plains Continent. What a noble person the princess of the Southern Tang Dynasty is, but now she is going to marry into the Chu Kingdom, which is naturally something that makes them proud!
Gongsun Qian couldn't help but think that her father-in-law asked him to approach this person some time ago, and it seemed that she really needed to find a chance to meet this person for a while.
Let's see if he has three heads and six arms, and why he always destroys his father-in-law's big things.
Gongsun Qian then asked, "Does the father-in-law have anything to explain?" ”
Mo Lan shook his head: "There is no other explanation, just let you act cheaply!" ”
Gongsun Qian nodded and said, "I know, you go down and rest first!" Qingmei, take Mr. Mo to rest! ”
At this moment, Gongsun Qian was still in the mood to perform a show, and her heart was full of things about Gu An.
On the other side, after Gu An solved the swallowtail organization, he led the team to continue to set off towards Jingcheng.
Along the way, they were all safe and sound, and they never encountered any crises again.
And his relationship with Mu Wanqin has also improved dramatically. This is also thanks to the fourth princess who gave him ideas, so that Mu Wanqin, who coaxed him, couldn't close her mouth all day long, and she was smiling every day.
And Mu Wanqin gradually relaxed her mood and no longer worried about the future situation, because of some Gu An's company, she had no regrets.
Originally, according to her thoughts, she didn't want to disclose the affairs of her daughter's body, but in the end, she also figured it out, rather than hiding it, it was better to swear sovereignty openly.
Because they will face all difficulties together.
Gu An also agrees with this.
And the only person who was hit was Wei Jingxuan's disciple Han Fu, and he couldn't figure out how that talented Mu Shaobai turned out to be his daughter.
In this regard, Mu Wanqin only has one sentence: I am a proud woman, not a man!
After a few days of depression, Han Fu also accepted this reality.
Wei Jingxuan didn't react, he had experienced too many things, and he was only surprised that Mu Wanqin was daughter, and then he regained his calm.
However, in order to facilitate her actions, Mu Wanqin finally dressed as a man.
Mu Wanqin no longer insists on riding a horse, but chooses to return to the carriage.
Cheng Mo still followed her side as always, as if he recognized her as a person, and he didn't care about the fact that she was a daughter, and he still called her "son" all the time.
In this regard, Mu Wanqin did not say much.
At this moment, she was sitting in the carriage opposite Gu An.
Gu An spoke first: "Wanqin, we will arrive in Jingcheng in a few days, do you think we will successfully complete the task this time!" ”
The closer Gu An got to Jing Cheng, the more nervous he felt in his heart.
He is confident, but not conceited.
This task is not so easy to complete, the situation in Jingcheng is very complicated, after all, this is not as good as in Yongcheng, they can't do things as they want, they must have many concerns.
Even with Wei Jingxuan's master and apprentice to guide them, they couldn't let their guard down.
The more you get to the dawn, the darker it becomes, the closer you get to victory, the more dangerous it is.
This is unpredictable, and many things are beyond their control.
Mu Wanqin stretched out her hand to hold Gu An, and said with a smile: "Don't worry! Even if it is a dark abyss, I will accompany you through it. Besides, we are not hopeless, Lord Wei and they will also support us. ”
Mu Wanqin knew that this was Gu Anxin's scruples, but now because he had a tie in his heart, many things could not be truly resolute.
Therefore, at this time, she needs to encourage him, so that he will not be confused, and will not lose faith and hope.
Gu An also smiled slightly, looking at Mu Wanqin, his heart suddenly calmed down.
Gu An said seriously: "I understand, I will do my best to do it well!" ”
He wasn't scared or confused, but he didn't have to think about it because of the burden and responsibility on him.
He also understands that as the messenger of the Southern Tang Dynasty, it is not only a personal honor and disgrace, but also the honor and disgrace of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and there is a group of brothers who were born and died with him behind him, and he needs him to escort them and let them return to their hometown of the Southern Tang Dynasty safely.
This is the office of a general, and it is also the responsibility of a man.
Mu Wanqin nodded and said to him, "Let's work together!" ”
Gu An smiled cheerfully: "Haha! Okay, let's work together. ”
Working together to overcome difficulties, the two of them are not afraid of danger. Born a man, thousands of troops come to see each other!
