Chapter 289: Value
Gu Shengan raised his eyes, he looked at King Donglin, his face was cold, "King Donglin, you are really ruthless, don't you have a little guilt for Concubine Hui in your heart?" ”
"Why should I feel guilty? Being able to enter the palace as a concubine, enjoy the emperor's favor, and be admired by thousands of people, isn't this what everyone wants? I let her have it easily, she should feel that this is her glory, besides, as a member of the Nie family, she should have sacrificed for the honor of our Nie family. ”
Gu Sheng'an saw that King Donglin said so reasonably, he couldn't help frowning, and said, "King Donglin, do you ask yourself whether Concubine Hui made a sacrifice for the honor of the Nie family, or for your own ambitions?" I think you know this better than anyone else. ”
Donglin Wang's face suddenly became a little ugly, he stared at Gu Sheng'an, and asked, "What do you mean by this?" Concubine Hui is my sister, her life and death and happiness have nothing to do with you, are you too nosy. ”
Gu Shengan suddenly sneered and replied: "You are right, Concubine Hui's life and death really have nothing to do with me, but a few days ago, Concubine Hui suddenly begged me to let her out of the palace, she said that she would not live long, so she wanted to go back to the southern realm, and she wanted to look at the southern realm when she was dying, where she grew up." ”
Donglin Wang's expression changed slightly, he stared at Gu Sheng'an closely, and blurted out, "Will you let her leave the palace?" ”
"It depends on whether the king of Donglin still takes her as a sister, I want to make a deal with you."
King Donglin immediately understood what Gu Sheng'an meant, and he asked in a cold voice, "How can you let Concubine Hui leave the palace?" ”
"I want you to remove all the guards who have been arranged to monitor the emperor in the palace, and you will no longer be able to monitor the emperor's every move in the future."
As soon as King Donglin heard that it was about the emperor, his face immediately changed, "Gu Sheng'an, do you think that if you use Concubine Hui as a bargaining chip, I will agree to this condition for you?" ”
Gu Sheng'an lowered his eyes slightly, and he spoke: "King Donglin, returning to the south is your sister Concubine Hui's only wish, she is already a dying person, you really can't bear to even refuse to fulfill this wish?" ”
"Since she's dying, what's the difference between not returning to the South and not going back to the South? Gu Shengan, do you think I will make this deal with you for the sake of her such a boring wish? ”
Gu Shengan didn't answer immediately, he was silent for a while, and then he suddenly looked up at King Donglin, and said: "When Concubine Hui was seriously ill, I went to visit her, and at that time, I mentioned to Concubine Hui that you came to Kyoto and asked her if she wanted to see you, guess what she said?" ”
Donglinwang's face was gloomy, and he asked in a deep voice, "What did she tell you?" ”
"She said she didn't want to see you at all, and she said she definitely didn't want to be your sister if there was an afterlife." Gu Shengan said.
When King Donglin heard Gu Sheng'an's words, his eyes flashed, and then he replied: "If there is an afterlife, we really don't have to be brothers and sisters anymore, I know that she has been resentful of me all her life, so let her continue to hate!" After all, it's better than forgetting. ”
There was a trace of anger on Gu Shengan's face, and he continued: "Donglin Wang, Concubine Hui said that she has been your pawn all her life, in order to please the emperor and consolidate your power in the south, you forcibly broke her and Han Jiang, I don't know if you ever felt any guilt towards the two of you in your midnight dream?" ”
Donglin Wang clenched the root of his back teeth, and he said coldly: "Han Jiang was originally a fierce general in our army, if it weren't for her, how could I lose such a brave and good fighting lieutenant, do you know that my loss of Han Jiang is equivalent to losing one of my arms, she told her when she was a child that she was born to marry into the royal family, after all, she is so beautiful, it is easy to get the emperor's favor, but she wants to be entangled with Han Jiang, and the pain of the two of them for more than ten years is self-inflicted." ”
After Gu Shengan listened to what King Donglin said, he replied: "King Donglin, it seems that you really don't feel that you are wrong from beginning to end, I really feel sad for Concubine Hui and Han Jiang, especially Han Jiang, he doesn't know anything, he is still grateful to you from the bottom of his heart for your kindness to him all these years, if you let him know that you actually ruined Concubine Hui, I am afraid that he will hate you." ”
King Donglin raised his head, he sneered, and replied: "Now Han Jiang is just a guard commander, and he has long lost the value that can be used, so it doesn't matter whether he hates me or not." ”
Gu Sheng'an's eyes flashed with a flash of light, and he spoke: "King Donglin, it seems that you are determined not to make this deal with me?" ”
"That's right! You're going to die of this heart! ”
Donglin Wang said coldly: "Gu Sheng'an, we have almost talked about what should be discussed, since you have agreed to let Sining enter the palace, then you hurry up and prepare for the post-establishment matter, I am waiting for the emperor's holy decree after the establishment of the county lord's mansion." ”
King Donglin dropped these words and walked directly towards the carriage, he walked into the carriage without hesitation, and then ordered the coachman to leave, Gu Shengan kept watching him walk away completely, before he spoke: "Han Jiang, he is really leaving, you come out." ”
As soon as Gu Sheng'an's words fell, Han Jiang flew out of a hidden place, and at this time, Han Jiang's face was extremely complicated, and his expression was both indignant and sad.
Gu Shengan stared at Han Jiang for a while before he said, "You must have known about the conversation I had with King Donglin just now, and now you also know who the person who caused you and Concubine Hui to suffer so much, so do you still choose to be loyal to King Donglin now?" ”
Han Jiang didn't speak, and Gu Shengan was not in a hurry to urge him to make a statement, Han Jiang thought for a long time before he glanced at Gu Shengan and asked, "Gu Shengan, you didn't lie just now?" Concubine Hui's last wish is really to go back to the south to see her homeland? ”
Gu Shengan nodded at Han Jiang and replied, "What do I have to lie, if you don't believe me, you can go back to Minglan Hall and ask Concubine Hui in person." ”
Han Jiang was silent for a while before he said, "Gu Sheng'an, what do you want me to do to let me take Concubine Hui out of the palace?" ”
"Han Jiang, I said it, Concubine Hui is the concubine of the former emperor, even if she dies, she will be buried in the imperial mausoleum and buried next to the former emperor, so she will not let you take her away at all."
Han Jiang stared at Gu Sheng'an, and he replied word by word: "Gu Sheng'an, I know that you have a way to secretly send Concubine Hui out of the palace, so make your conditions!" Since the king of Donglin will not make this deal with you, then I will do it with you. ”
Gu Shengan looked at Han Jiang coldly, and he spoke: "Han Jiang, tell me first, what is your value to me?" ”、
