Chapter 13: The Kyoto Reaction
General Anyuan's Mansion
Gu Lingtian stood in the study and listened to the personal mother-in-law next to Zhang's side come to report, the loss of jewelry and silver, Gu Lingtian's fist was clenched tightly behind his back, his heart was extremely irritable, he had been planning for many years, and finally became the head of the family and controlled the Gu family in his hands, but he didn't expect that there was only an empty shell left overnight, and the mother-in-law had no face, she didn't play, Gu Lingtian couldn't hold back, and waved it out with a palm. Shengsheng cut off the woman's waist, and the ground was a blur of flesh and blood.
"Master, my subordinates ordered someone to clean up," Ah Sheng in the dark said.
"Ah Sheng, you come in with me" Gu Lingtian twisted the bookshelf slightly, the door of the secret room opened, and the two of them entered with their front and back feet, and the door closed automatically.
"Ah Sheng, I always feel that what is happening these days is out of control, first the Zhang family in Jizhou, then Xiao'er, and now my father is also missing, the backyard secret room has been stolen, and all kinds of circumstances show that the person who came is not good!" Gu Lingtian had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Master, why don't I go check and see if there is someone behind those two thieves, there are always clues, maybe I can recover resources." As soon as Ah Sheng finished speaking, he clenched his fists and prepared to leave.
"Wait, those two thieves can be safely evacuated from the General's Mansion, it can be seen that they are masters, I will send a letter to the Hundred Flowers Palace and ask them to send some masters," Gu Lingtian finished speaking and began to write.
Yuanqing Imperial Palace
Emperor Kang Xuanyu sat on the dragon chair, and on either side of the bottom stood five adult princes in python robes and a bright yellow prince.
"Father, is General Gu really missing? The two thieves stole their property, but what was the use of them stealing an unconscious old man? The prince's face was full of doubt.
"Yes, father, what the prince said is reasonable, this matter is not reasonable, and according to eyewitnesses, the two thieves left empty-handed, and the old general Gu is a living person, so he can't be taken away by stuffing a bag!" The four princes looked at the emperor after speaking.
"This matter is indeed strange, the disappearance of General Gu is very important, you brothers will go to investigate together, secretly investigate!" After speaking, the emperor waved his hand to let the princes retreat and enter the secret room of the imperial study......
The Nangong family
The Nangong family gathered together, and the head of the Nangong family reported the Gu family affairs to the old lady, and the old lady laughed after hearing it, "Lao Tzu and the Gu family have been fighting for most of their lives, but I didn't expect the Gu family to be angry, and the descendants are dead, Gu Lingtian is a ruthless and vicious rat generation, it seems that the Gu family is doomed."
"Father, are we still staring at the Gu family?" The head of the Gu family asked.
"Naturally, the Gu family is a big family, and there are no hole cards missing, staring at death, this time the Gu family will be killed with one blow" The old lady remembered that when he was young, the old man of the Gu family had infinite scenery and outstanding talent, and the color of jealousy flashed on his face.
Gu Yufei slept in the space until noon before waking up, and when she woke up, she found that her cultivation had broken through to the peak of the Spirit Emperor's double level, it seemed that the spiritual power that treated the old man last night was evacuated to help her break through, and after washing, she went to see the old man and checked the pulse, and the old man was much better.
It's just why does the old man's vitality drain so quickly? Can't figure it out.
Thinking of the people who were detained in Zaigu last night, Gu Yufei took a look at the dark place where they were all sleeping, and it would take at least three days to wake up.
Hmph, go to sleep, wake up and become my subordinate, work for me well, Gu Yufei happily thought that with these people, Langya Pavilion can finally prepare.
Gu Yufei dressed up as Murong Yunqing again, walked out of the space, and walked towards the city gate full of energy, there was a long queue at the city gate, and there were spies from various families, so it was very lively.
"You said that the Gu family's property was stolen, could it have something to do with the strange thief Ji Mei," all the way to the person, discussing with his companion mysteriously.
"No, isn't the blame thief Yizhimei just stealing the little lady's underwear? I haven't heard of stealing property," the companion said with a puzzled smile and a lewd smile.
"But in this world, apart from the strange thief Yizhimei, who else has such skills, can come and go freely in the deep mansion compound and in a heavily guarded place," passerby A said confidently.
The people around them all said "It makes sense", Murong Yunqing waved a folding fan and leaned in and asked, "Who are you talking about the strange thief Yizhimei?" It's so powerful."
Some people around took the initiative to explain, it turned out that a few years ago there was a master of light skills, like to steal the intimate clothes of the little lady of the rich and noble family in the middle of the night, every time he stole something and engraved the words "strange thief a plum", for a long time, every time "a plum" to the place is always a chicken flying dog jumping, very sensational, but most people do not hate him, but some people respect him.
Gu Yufei was surprised to think that this is not the "pervert" in many modern people's mouths, this hobby, it sounds goosebumps.
After entering the city, there were very few small vendors on the street, and people from the government were searching everywhere, and Gu Yufei was also questioned, but Murong Yunqing's identity was above board, so he returned to the restaurant smoothly, and the shopkeeper of the restaurant was surnamed Yue, Gu Yufei found him and asked him to take a line and introduce him to the owner of Xuanyuan Auction House.
Seeing that Murong Yunqing was talking well, Yue Lao estimated that the origin was not simple, and he was afraid of delaying the master's major affairs, so he hurriedly went to the auction house to report to Xuanyuan Jingchen.
Xuanyuan Jingchen heard Murong Yunqing's request to meet, and nodded with interest, after all, there were only two people in Kyoto who interested him. Thinking of the "cute and interesting" little girl last night, Xuanyuan Jingchen's heart was hot, and his ears were inexplicably hot.
"Come on, this gentleman wants to bathe, cold water."
When Murong Yunqing entered the reception room, Xuanyuan Jingchen had already calmed down after bathing and was waiting in the room, like the emperor summoning his subordinates, dressed in a black robe, embroidered with mysterious golden flowers on the hem of his clothes, several delicate auspicious clouds on his sleeves, and a white jade pendant hanging from his golden belt, sitting upright, his face was serious, releasing a faint coercion, and his eyes were sharp at Murong Yunqing.
Murong Yunqing pretended to be calm and bowed down seriously, but what he thought in his heart was that he was fortunate to be well-informed and had watched many costume dramas, otherwise he was afraid that he would have to kneel on the spot, big guy, what kind of trouble are you going to make.
"You are Murong Yunqing, what is the matter with seeing this gentleman?" Xuanyuan Jingchen asked directly.
"Yunqing has seen you, you have an idea to make food, you wrote a plan, I want to ask you to take a look, if you think it is feasible, I hope to cooperate with you to open a restaurant." Murong Yunqing handed over the plan, and Jingyi handed it over to Xuanyuan Jingchen.
Xuanyuan Jingchen carefully flipped through the plan, Murong Yunqing was in a fugue, the senior brother in the master's mouth was really not easy to approach at all, the senior brother was so feminine, and the man in his disguise was handsome, but he had to be careful, in case he was ...... by the senior brother, the more Murong Yunqing thought about it, the bigger his brain hole became, goosebumps rose, and he pouted.
After reading it, Xuanyuan Jingchen looked up and found that the "kid" sitting on the chair next to him had various expressions, an absent-minded look, and a pair of good-looking peach blossom eyes turned smartly.
