Chapter 157: Cooperation
With the leadership of her father-in-law, this time Gu Xiqian went in very smoothly, because her father-in-law still brought the people behind, so he turned around and left after bringing Gu Xiqian in.
Along the way, although you will meet a lot of people, and even see various super ministers, there are almost no flaws under Gu Xiqian's demonstration, and there is no need for those ministers to ask about a little eunuch.
came to the place where Mo Xuanyin was under house arrest, but at this time, Gu Xiqian had no reason to go in, and happened to see a palace maid walking in with food.
Thinking that this was an opportunity, Gu Xiqian immediately followed behind the other party and stopped her before the other party went in.
Using the previous method of dealing with eunuchs, Gu Xiqian went in smoothly, looking at Mo Xuanyin inside, Gu Xiqian was a little distressed, but what she didn't understand was why the emperor didn't let him go until now?
Mo Xuanyin saw Gu Xiqian who came in with food, and his eyes were stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Gu Xiqian to dress like this.
"What are you doing here? Dressed like this? Mo Xuanyin looked at her and said with a snicker.
"Haven't I come to see you? Now that the emperor won't let me enter the palace, I have only this way. Gu Xiqian explained.
"Don't worry, now that the affairs of Lanling Kingdom have been decided, the emperor has no reason to lock me up again, and he will let me go in a few days, so you can go back first, otherwise when you are discovered, maybe it will be your turn to be imprisoned."
Seeing that Mo Xuanyin was so calm, Gu Xiqian had no choice but to leave after a few words.
"Well, I don't understand, when will I leave?" Mo Xuanyin looked outside and said.
After Gu Xiqian left the palace, she found that someone was following her along the way.
Looking back, there was a man in the crowd dressed in a familiar outfit for him, though she wasn't sure it was someone she knew.
Along the way, Gu Xiqian stopped and stopped, but the other party would still keep a distance from her, and didn't seem to care about being recognized by the other party.
However, Gu Xiqian was naturally prepared, and all along, she would bring a few smoke bombs with her, so that she would not be able to leave when she encountered difficulties.
Even when she was in the capital, Gu Xiqian didn't forget to bring two self-defense with her.
"What are you doing? It's been two quarters of an hour, and you haven't given up yet? ”
Gu Xiqian peeked at the person not far away, only to see that the other party subconsciously lowered the brim of his hat, so that Gu Xiqian couldn't see her, which made her feel very suspicious.
Then, he led the other party into the alley, intending to trap him.
The other party saw Gu Xiqian suddenly turn into the alley and immediately followed, but obviously the other party understood what Gu Xiqian meant, so he waited outside.
After going around and around, Gu Xiqian finally walked out, but before she could take a few steps, she saw that the person who had just followed her suddenly appeared in front of her, and Gu Xiqian immediately reached into her pocket and prepared to take out a smoke bomb to escape.
"Gu..."
"Bang!"
Before the other party could say anything, I saw Gu Xiqian immediately throw out the smoke bomb, and after a while, I saw the smoke filling, and Gu Xiqian left immediately.
However, the other party didn't seem to be affected, took off his hat and waved it casually, the smoke in front of him dissipated, and seeing Gu Xiqian leave a corner, the other party immediately followed.
"What an unsavvy guy." The man said helplessly.
put on his hat and immediately followed him into the alley, only to see Liuyun appear next to Gu Xiqian.
"Who the hell are you? Did Gu Miaoxuan send you? Gu Xiqian pointed to the man in front of her and asked.
The other party didn't speak, Gu Xiqian glanced at Liuyun beside him, and Liuyun immediately made a move.
The man looked at Liuyun's skills and couldn't help but sigh, but for the familiarity of the other party, Liuyun lost to the other party in a few clicks.
However, the man's hat was also knocked off by the clouds, and a familiar face appeared in front of them.
"You're... Inaction? Gu Xiqian looked at Wuwei and said in surprise.
"It seems that during the time I was away, you didn't relax, especially your smoke bomb, if ordinary people smell it, they will probably faint on the spot." Wuwei sighed.
let go of Liuyun, Wuwei also smiled: "I really didn't expect that after a while, your martial arts have also become stronger, it seems that with you protecting Gu Xiqian, I still have some... Not assured. Wu Wei sighed a little, although Liuyun's martial arts still improved, but he was still defeated by his own moves, which was still a little insufficient.
Liuyun didn't speak, just snorted coldly.
Gu Xiqian monitored Wuwei, so he stepped forward and asked, "Why are you here, aren't you thinking about traveling all over the world?" How did it end up here? Are you here to keep your promise? ”
Wuwei said helplessly: "Actually, I came this time to talk to you, and this is not a request for you, but a cooperation." ”
When Gu Xiqian heard this, she immediately became interested, and the three of them discussed it in the inn.
"I'm planning to open an inn recently, and this inn is not simple, it's a place to collect news from various countries, as well as intelligence, I plan to call it "Stacked Twin Floors", ostensibly to open an inn business, in fact, we can know the news of the world from the mouths of those people, and then use Fei Ge to pass the book to contact, how about it? I don't know if you're interested? ”
If Wuwei is words, it is indeed very tempting, but if you want to spread all over the world, you need a lot of silver, and seeing that the copper sword on Wuwei's body is no longer there, I want to sell it because of this incident.
"Yes, you can, but can you tell me why you did that?" Gu Xiqian asked.
"Actually, it has something to do with my previous experience." Wuwei lowered his head and said, it seems that he has a very heavy past.
The two were stunned, although they knew Wuwei's experience, but many details were not clear at that time.
It turned out that the country of Wuwei at that time was also a small country on the border, but it was the best place to produce bronze, and the copper sword of Wuwei was made by craftsmen for the royal family at that time.
Later, the war in South Vietnam spread wantonly, and many small countries were either crippled or directly destroyed, and those who were born were either destroyed or allied with South Vietnam, or became vassals, and the countries that did nothing belonged to the group that were destroyed.
But fortunately, the South Vietnamese Kingdom did not exterminate all his people at that time, but their people were basically scattered, and there were few people left.
And Wu Wei is different, as the last member of the royal family of the country, even if he does not have the lofty goal of reviving the country, he has to avenge his former people and warriors, and that is the spirit of heaven who has killed Prince Duan and avenged them.
Therefore, the first step of Wuwei is to establish its own intelligence station, which can grasp the trends of the world and have the dominant power.
After listening to Wuwei's explanation, Gu Xiqian also felt the same way, his country was also destroyed, and he could only rely on the murderer to survive, not only was his acquaintances watching, but even his actions were restricted everywhere, and he couldn't help but sigh that it would be great if he had the ability to do something like Wuwei.
With the help of Wuwei, Gu Xiqian suddenly felt that it was not impossible for her to take revenge on Prince Duan.
Moreover, Wuwei also has his own plan, although he needs a lot of silver taels in the early stage, but since he is doing an inn business, he must first make it bigger, and for this, the money paid will naturally not be less.
"I understand, in this way, you take this jade pendant to Yunnan Kingdom, and the king of Yunnan will agree to your conditions after seeing that jade pendant, but you have to remember that this money will be repaid in the future, so your place can't just collect intelligence." Gu Xiqian reminded.
"Naturally, I promise, it will pay off in three years!" Wuwei is guaranteed.
Subsequently, Wuwei escorted them back to Xiangwang's Mansion, and took out a few thousand taels of silver tickets from the treasury inside and gave them to Wuwei.
"You take this money to the emergency first, and then start the business when you arrive in Yunnan, and I will wait for your good news here." Gu Xiqian said.
Looking at the few silver tickets in her hand, Wuwei was also a little surprised, but she didn't expect that she would be able to come up with so much money at once.
"Don't worry, it's up to you to take out the money, I will naturally give you a good explanation and say goodbye!" Wuwei clasped his fists and saluted, and then left the capital.
moved the treasury of King Xiang's mansion, and naturally King Xiang also wanted to know the reason for this, and when Gu Xiqian told the matter, King Xiang also sighed a little.
"I didn't expect that the famous ranger Wuwei on the rivers and lakes actually had such a past, which is really making people."
"My purpose with him is very simple, that is, to make Prince Duan pay the price, you are also considered a family, are you really willing to help Wuwei like this?" Gu Xi Xiang Wang on the side of the coriander mosquito incense.
"Of course, compared to the peace of the world, the grievances of the family are nothing." King Xiang replied calmly.
Compared with a family like Prince Duan, his beloved wife back then, as well as the former emperor he respected the most, and the once prosperous Nanyue Kingdom, it really made him unable to say a few good words for Prince Duan.
Gu Xiqian on the side was also a little admired, after all, they have also experienced a lot of things, but it is estimated that it will take a little time for King Xiang to completely let go of his relationship with Prince Duan.
"King Xiang, if the time comes, if you really want to see Prince Duan die in front of you with your own eyes, will you hate me?" Gu Xiqian asked.
This sentence has already determined her future path, that is, to overthrow Prince Duan.
"Yes, but I only have one request, before he dies, I have a few questions I want to ask, and then I can do whatever you want." After speaking, King Xiang turned around and went into the inner room.
Gu Xiqian sighed a little, what can make a family stranger than strangers?
