After a pause, Gu Shichong changed the conversation and continued: "To transport a large number of goods from the Moonset Country, you need to take the waterway, and you must pass through the Fen River, and the waterway transportation of the Fen River has always been under the jurisdiction of the prince, so I hope that the prince can cooperate with the prime minister!" ”

"The prince doesn't need to do anything, he just needs to let the merchant ships of the prime minister be unimpeded in the Fen River, and thirty percent of the profits from the operation will be directly distributed to the prince?"

"That sounds like a big temptation!" Bei Mingchen smiled slightly, "It's just that this king is really greedy for money......"

Without the man's words, Gu Shichong understood what he meant, "Forty percent, how about forty percent?" ”

"Xiangye is really a cheerful person, just forty percent, deal!" Bei Mingchen agreed.

"Good! I hope to have a good time cooperating with the prince! Reaching an agreement, Gu Shichong stood up, stretched out his right hand and patted Bei Mingchen's left shoulder.

deliberately increased the force in his hand, and Gu Shichong's hand did not mean to take it away.

The wound had not healed yet, but it was pinched, and Bei Mingchen only felt a terrible pain in his left shoulder.

But he couldn't show it, and forced himself to suppress the pain, Bei Mingchen still responded to Gu Shichong with a smile: "It will definitely be!" ”

Last night, all the assassins present had been killed by Bei Yingchen, leaving not a single living mouth, judging from Gu Shichong's current actions, he seemed to know very clearly the part of the black-clothed man who saved Ye Tingxuan last night.

In this way, last night, in addition to the people who appeared on the surface, Gu Shichong also arranged eyeliner, hid in the dark to investigate the situation, and did not make a move.

The two looked at each other, Gu Shichong looked at Bei Mingchen carefully, although his face did not move, but because the wound was too painful, Bei Mingchen felt that beads of sweat had gradually begun to ooze from the corners of his forehead.

At this moment, there was a sudden "whoosh", and a short arrow pierced the air and stabbed straight towards Gu Shichong.

"Xiangye, be careful!" With a quick eye, Steward Qian stepped forward and grabbed the short arrow before it was about to enter Gu Shichong's body.

This money steward looks simple, but he doesn't want to be a practitioner, and his martial arts are not weak.

His eyes fell on the short arrow held in his hand by Steward Qian, Bei Mingchen's eyebrows twisted slightly, and he guessed who the person who released the arrow was, and he hurriedly gave Qin Yuning a look on the side.

Immediately comprehending the man's meaning, Qin Yuning took a step ahead of Steward Qian and ran in the direction where the short arrow came from.

"Xiangye, are you okay?" Steward Qian turned his head to the person beside him and asked.

"It's okay! Go and see, who dares to openly assassinate the true face in the Ruiling Palace! His eyes were sharp, and Gu Shichong's tone was not good.

"Yes!" In response, Steward Qian threw away the short arrow in his hand and quickly followed in the direction where Qin Yuning left.

Walking behind the wall, a familiar figure appeared in Qin Yuning's sight, just now it was He Muwan who shot an arrow at Gu Shichong with the crossbow that Nie Qingfang gave her.

Passing by here, she saw Gu Shichong and Bei Mingchen sitting on both sides of the stone table talking from a distance, so she moved to kill.

When a person is completely dominated by emotion, reason loses its effect, and there is no time to think about it, He Muwan only feels that this is a rare opportunity to assassinate Gu Shichong, how can she miss it.

Borrowing the wall to hide herself, He Muwan took out a crossbow and shot it with an arrow aimed at Gu Shichong, but she didn't expect that the Qian steward was actually a martial arts master.

When Qin Yuning arrived, he saw He Muwan stunned in place, his eyes full of unwillingness.

"Princess, let's go!" Listening to the footsteps that followed closely behind, Qin Yuning reminded the woman in an anxious whisper.

After coming back to her senses, He Muwan turned the corner of the wall and left quickly, she left with her front foot, and Steward Qian followed with her back foot.

"What about the Assassins?" Except for Qin Yuning, there was no one else at the scene, and Steward Qian asked suspiciously, while looking around.

"By the time I arrived, the assassin was gone!" Qin Yuning was confused, but his heart jumped up and down because of lying.

He Muwan won't work lightly, and naturally she won't be able to run too far in this moment's kung fu, if Steward Qian chases her out, she will be discovered.

At this time, Qin Yuning could only pray in his heart that He Muwan could find a good hiding place.

As Steward Qian turned the corner, Qin Yuning's palms couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and he followed step by step, until he found that what greeted him was empty, and he was slightly relieved.

Steward Qian's skills, He Muwan just saw it clearly, seeing Steward Qian chasing in her direction, He Muwan knew that with her travel speed, she couldn't escape at all.

So, after turning the corner, she looked around for a place to hide.

Suddenly seeing the small "cave" that Bei Mingchen took her to hide with, He Muwan seemed to have grasped the life-saving straw, her eyes lit up, and she dodged in directly.

Steward Qian didn't seem to believe that the assassin could escape quietly in such a short time, and he didn't see anyone, so he was unwilling to follow the gravel path and explore the surrounding grass and rocks.

I searched for all the places I could think of, but there was still no result, and I had no choice but to give up.

"Xiangye, I didn't find the assassin, but the slave felt that this person hadn't gone far, and he must still be hiding in the Ruiling Palace!" Returning to Gu Shichong's side, Steward Qian replied.

"Immediately seal off the entire palace, search the whole palace, and find out the assassin!" Before Gu Shichong could speak, Bei Mingchen took the lead and ordered Qin Yuning on the side.

"Yes!" After receiving the order, Qin Yuning immediately did what the man told him.

"The assassin is really bold, and he dared to openly break into the king's palace in broad daylight to assassinate him, which frightened Gu Xiang! Gu Xiang, are you okay? With a serious face, Bei Mingchen pretended to be concerned.

"I've lived most of my life, and this little fright isn't enough to take it to heart!" Gu Shichong said disdainfully.

"It's okay if Gu Xiang is fine, if something goes wrong with Gu Xiang in the king's palace, the king will really feel uneasy!"

"Gu Xiang, please rest assured, as long as this king catches the assassin, he will immediately send someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion, kill or chop, and let Gu Xiang dispose of it!"

"The assassin's affairs will be handed over to the prince, and the prime minister is waiting for good news in the mansion!" Although Gu Shichong had doubts about the assassin, this was the Ruiling Palace, and it was not easy for him to send people to search for it.

So he could only follow the words of Bei Mingchen, the voice fell, he flicked his sleeves, and left with his hands, Steward Qian saluted Bei Mingchen, and quickly followed.
