Chapter 118: Escape Plan

And Gu Xiqian was still worried about Mo Xuanyin's affairs, Gu Rongzhi was also working hard to complete his errand under Mu Chuan, since he was reprimanded by King Xiang and Gu Xiqian last time, the whole person seemed to be stimulated, and he worked harder and harder.

And he knew that now Mu Chuan was the emperor's big celebrity, and he was also his brother-in-law, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off.

"Haha, brother-in-law, you've been on the rise recently, even the emperor values you so much." Gu Rongzhi said with a smile.

Mu Chuan looked at the gift sent by Gu Rongzhi, and naturally understood what she meant, "Don't worry, I'm your brother-in-law, if there is anything, your benefits are naturally indispensable, and I recently heard that you are very quick in doing things, yes, you are a talent." ”

Listening to Mu Chuan's praise, Gu Rongzhi was also very happy in his heart, at least in this way, many people will give themselves face, after all, in addition to the identity of the son of Xiangwangfu, the brother-in-law of the emperor's righteous son is even more powerful.

"Brother-in-law, I don't know if there are any errands lately, can I also get some light?" Gu Rongzhi said with a smile.

"Hmm... It's true that you have an errand, but after all, you've just taken office now, and I'm a little worried. Makikawa pretended to be a little embarrassed and said.

Gu Rongzhi looked at his expression, and immediately handed over a box to me, "Brother-in-law, I don't know if this is my sincerity?" ”

When I opened it, I saw that it was a jade bracelet with exquisite workmanship, and Mu Chuan immediately smiled and put it away.

"You kid, I really didn't expect you to have such thoughts, it seems that if you are allowed to be an official in the court for a few years, I don't see if you will be able to become an official in the court." Makikawa sighed.

"Brother-in-law, don't worry, I do every errand you explain very carefully, plus this little means, you still have to have it, otherwise, it really can't be justified." Gu Rongzhi said with a smile.

Mu Chuan saw that he was so good, so he decided to hand over the errand to him, and then specially advised.

"You have to remember that this Lord Zhou is very difficult to get around, but he likes some antiques, you can bring some paintings or inscriptions of famous teachers when the time comes, and it will be a natural success, don't say that my brother-in-law didn't remind you."

Gu Rongzhi listened to Mu Chuan's prompt, and immediately felt happy, immediately thanked him, and then sent Mu Chuan away.

King Xiang on the side looked at them like this, a little helpless, now he is treated as someone else's chess piece and does not know it, if this continues, there will definitely be endless troubles.

"Rongzhi, come here, I have something to tell you." King Xiang said with a serious face.

Seeing that he finally took on an errand, Gu Rongzhi, who hadn't had time to be happy, felt a little disappointed.

When the two came to the study, they saw King Xiang say straight to the point: "Don't do things under your brother-in-law in the future, stay away from him if you can." ”

However, such words are a little puzzled for Gu Rongzhi, he has finally come to this point, why did he give up just a word?

"Dad, don't you know, now that my brother-in-law is in the court, many people are scolding him, and more importantly, he is the emperor's righteous son, and he is also highly used, such a person, you still say to stay away from him?" Gu Rongzhi was a little puzzled.

King Xiang didn't say anything, just told him a few words, Gu Rongzhi, who didn't understand the matter, obviously wouldn't let go of this opportunity and quarreled with him.

"Dad, at that time, I wanted to get an errand under the third sister, you have a lot of opinions, now I am working under my brother-in-law, and if you do a good job, you tell me not to do it, you are obviously biased." Gu Rongzhi said a little unconvinced.

King Xiang explained: "I told you to stay away from your brother-in-law because he has a bad heart, and he uses those means to win people's hearts all day long, such a person will betray his relatives sooner or later, what are you doing with such a person?" ”

Gu Rongzhi was a little angry, thinking that he was looked down upon because he had a little achievement, and even said bad things about his benefactor, which was simply a constant insult to him.

"Dad, you are prejudiced, I think you are jealous of your brother-in-law's current status, so you want to help those people in the side room, I tell you, I Gu Rongzhi, one day I will get ahead, when the time comes, I want you to kneel and think that I admit my mistakes!" After saying that, he turned around and threw the door away.

Seeing that he was now emotional, and obviously carried away by the interests of his status, King Xiang sat on the chair weakly and sighed: "I didn't expect that it would become like this in the end."

On the other side, Mo Xuanyin had been away for several days, and Gu Xiqian decided not to wait for the news to take the initiative, if something happened to Mo Xuanyin halfway, it would be even more difficult for him to leave Nanyue.

Although she is now the main family of the prince of Yunnan Kingdom, she is also the county lord of Nanyue Kingdom, and this identity makes her a little embarrassed when she leaves.

Moreover, Mu Chuan's position in the court is already in full swing, and without Mo Xuanyin's protection, it will be a matter of time before he deals with himself.

After thinking about it, Gu Xiqian decided to enter the palace to resign.

However, what she didn't expect was that when she came to the palace, she saw Mu Chuan next to the emperor and seemed to be discussing something.

"See the Emperor." Gu Xiqian said respectfully.

Mu Chuan, who was on the side, saw Gu Xiqian, and immediately glanced at the emperor, and got up to leave.

"I don't know why the county lord is coming?" The emperor asked.

"Your Majesty, you must know that I have been married to the prince of Yunnan for a long time, but the king of Yunnan is sick, but as a daughter-in-law, I can't go back to visit, because it is unfilial, and the minister implores the emperor to open up and let the minister fulfill his filial piety."

Gu Xiqian's words were reasonable, which made the emperor a little shaken, but he understood that the current Gu Xiqian could not leave Nanyue.

Just when the emperor was a little hesitant, he saw Mu Chuan walk in: "The county lord's filial piety this time is really moving, but the county lord must also know that you are the Ronghui county lord of Nanyue." ”

Mu Chuan's reminder also made the emperor echo him, basically revolving around Gu Xiqian's identity and trying to keep him.

Watching the two sing and harmonize, Gu Xiqian had no choice, if the emperor didn't agree, it was useless to say anything, so he had to leave helplessly.

"Father-in-law, well done, if you let him go, I'll be in trouble."

Watching Gu Xiqian leave, the emperor sighed helplessly, and even regretted that he still kept this person by his side, which was simply a matter of raising tigers.

Gu Xiqian, who would go to King Xiang's mansion, had no choice but to find King Xiang to discuss leaving.

"I know that if you leave now, it is to avoid the persecution of Mu Chuan, but since Mo Xuanyin left, the guards in the capital have become more stringent, and it is not easy to leave from under them." King Xiang explained.

"I know, but I'm not trying to leave right away, just as soon as possible." Gu Xiqian analyzed. "Now that we are very close to the Royal Hunting Festival in South Vietnam, I plan to find an opportunity to leave during the Royal Hunting Festival."

King Xiang pondered for a while, it is true that the royal hunting festival of Nanyue is the best opportunity, but at that time, the guards in the capital were also the most severe, but for Mu Chuan and others, they would definitely think that such a guard was strict, and Gu Xiqian would not choose this time to leave.

"Well, I see, but think about the route to leave." King Xiang reminded.

Gu Xiqian took out the map of the capital and began to analyze: "When the royal hunting festival begins, everyone will go out of the city to the usual hunting grounds, and then start the ritual of sacrificing to the sky. ”

King Xiang looked at the place pointed by Gu Xiqian and nodded in agreement, "But during the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, everyone can't leave, and Mu Chuan and they will also look at you, what way do you have to leave?" ”

Gu Xiqian said that she pretended to have an injured hand after the hunt began and left, and then pointed to a place not far away.

"This place, I have arranged for assassins, according to the route of hunting, the emperor will pass through here, and then the assassins there will attack me with dark arrows, as long as I am injured, I can leave the hunting ground, and when the time comes, as soon as I return to the capital, we can leave according to this route."

After speaking, Gu Xiqian drew a line on the map as the route when he left, and King Xiang felt that this plan could be implemented.

"I understand, the guards on this road will be handed over to me when the time comes, and when you leave, make sure that no one stops you." King Xiang pointed to the route of Gu Xiqian's retreat and said.

With the help of King Xiang, Gu Xiqian felt that this was a good opportunity, so the two began to continue to discuss the details of the plan.

At this time, they didn't seem to notice that outside the door of the room, there was someone eavesdropping on their plan, and it had been for a while.

"I didn't expect this slut to want to leave during the Royal Hunting Festival, I won't let you succeed!" Gu Miaoxuan clenched her fists and said.

After Gu Miaoxuan eavesdropped for a while, she saw Gu Miaoxuan's pasting on the window, and just as she shouted out, Gu Miaoxuan covered her mouth.

"I tell you, don't scream, or you'll be in good hands!" Gu Miaoxuan warned.

However, the movements of the two were discovered by Gu Xiqian inside, and they immediately walked out of the room to check.

However, Gu Miaoxuan had already dragged people to hide not far away in advance, so she was not discovered.

"What's wrong?" King Xiang asked.

Gu Xiqian looked around and said, "How do I feel that someone is eavesdropping on us?" But is there anyone around here? ”

"You go back first, we'll talk about this matter sometime." King Xiang said vigilantly.

After watching the two leave, Gu Miaoxuan and the subordinate walked out of the rockery behind.

"I warn you, if one more person knows about this, I guarantee that you will live better than die, do you hear?" Gu Miaoxuan warned.
