Gu Yan originally had scruples in her heart, but since Ah Li said so, she still simply asked this matter clearly, to be honest, if it was someone else, if it was really exposed, Chu Junyou was so smart, would people really deliberately find loopholes and let her leave?

"I don't know, but that day, Chu Junyou did deliberately release water and let me leave, I couldn't think about it at first, but the situation was urgent, there was a gap, I escaped, I don't know what he was doing it for, maybe ...... He's trying to use me to elicit your identity, that's why he's doing this? ”

Ah Li actually thought about it for a long time, and he didn't understand the cause and effect of this matter, but this matter is indeed not so difficult to understand, if Chu Junyou really understands it, he really shouldn't let himself go like this, not to mention, Chu Junyou obviously knew that he entered the palace with a purpose that day, but he still let himself go so easily, in the end, this matter is a little strange, is it possible, does he really intend to let himself go?

"I don't think he will let you go so easily, so the possibility of casting a long line to catch a big fish may be greater, and he is much smarter than we imagined, obviously only exposed Lingyin Pavilion, but he just followed the vine and found Yuhualou."

"That's right, if it weren't for the prince reminding me that I must stay in Lingyin Pavilion for a while longer, maybe at this time, he would have already discovered the relationship between Lingyin Pavilion and Yuhualou."

Ah Li was still a little scared when he said this, after all, Yuhualou is the property of the prince, and everyone knows very well, if it is really exposed, it is actually his own concise exposure of the identity of the prince.

"No, no, no, he has actually found out a long time ago, this is Shun Teng and wants to come down, Yuhualou used to be the property of the prince, which is the property of the prince in the whole capital, I am afraid that there are few people who do not know, as for Gu Su Liang's side, my brother had a good relationship with Ah Liang, before this the prince went on the expedition, my brother went with him, as far as the prince's cautious attitude is concerned, the capital will definitely leave people to take care of it, but he didn't leave his brother behind, which may indicate that the other person left by the prince in the imperial city is not my brother, It's Gusu Liang, after all, many people see these relationships between them, and the prince and everyone have not deliberately concealed it. ”

"By the way, Ah Liang, aren't you going to tell us about that friend of yours now? If we don't explain it well, I'm afraid we will have a lot of things that we won't have time to react to. ”

Gu Yan remembered that Gu Suliang had always mentioned it before, but she had never explained that friend carefully, it seemed that this time, this friend who looked similar to Chu Junyou was not from an ordinary background.

"Alas, I knew I wouldn't be able to hide it for long, chasing the wind, you go to the door first, and don't let other people know what we say."

In fact, Chu Tiankuo's matter is complicated and complicated

, to put it simply, in a word, Chu Tiankuo is a person who is not willing to trouble.

Chu Tiankuo was under the hands of the former emperor, he was a brave and warlike soldier, also known as the god of war at the border pass, and he was also a legendary figure.

At that time, the people at the border gate worshipped Chu Tiankuo as the god of war, and it slowly spread to the ears of the emperor, and the emperor at that time was Shen Qianshan's eldest brother and Shen Zhongbai's father.

"He took advantage of the war at the border pass to give Chu Tiankuo 5,000 elite soldiers and let him go to the border pass to resist the 80,000 army of Western Xia."

"Eighty thousand? How is this possible! When Gu Yan heard this, she obviously couldn't believe her ears, 5,000 against 80,000 soldiers and horses, this emperor is also crazy, is it a joke about his own country?

"But Chu Tiankuo still went, there is a dangerous pass on the border between Bei'an and Western Xia, if the ambush is good, it is possible to repel the other party with five thousand troops, but that must be when the other party perceives the dangerous terrain and does not dare to step forward."

"Then Chu Tiankuo is already a god of war, there shouldn't be any problems in dealing with such a scene, right?"

"Have you ever thought that no matter how heroic the general guarding the pass is, it is a person after all, and it is impossible to resist the menacing soldiers on the opposite side, have you ever thought about using five thousand soldiers and horses to fight against tens of thousands of troops on the opposite side? I had also brought 5,000 soldiers and horses to the border of Southern Qi before, as for why I was able to return safely, it was only because the soldiers and horses brought by Su Jingxian were originally here to do me a favor and cause the war at the border pass. ”

When Shen Qianshan came out, he happened to hear them say this, and after listening to them for a while, he expressed his opinion.

Shen Qianshan had also heard a little about this matter, after all, he and Chu Tiankuo were not much different in age, and at that time, he had already led the troops to fight. It's just that I didn't think that this friend of Gu Su Liang was Chu Tiankuo, the god of war at that time.

"The prince is right, you don't know how powerful the Western Xia army is, and they live in the frontier all the year round, all of them are all good soldiers, where is the turn of our five thousand soldiers and horses to be presumptuous in front of them?"

"But I remember, didn't there ever be a truce agreement at the border between Bei'an and Western Xia many years ago? And later, didn't the people of Bei'an also go to Western Xia? ”

"Do you know what Chu Tiankuo's origin is?"

It was not easy for Gu Su Liang to investigate what happened to Chu Tiankuo back then, but during the investigation, it was difficult for him to guarantee that Chu Tiankuo's identity had not been exposed, and Gu Su Liang understood very well in his heart that Chu Tiankuo had been exposed

The day of his true identity also shows that his identity cannot be concealed no matter what.

Chu Tiankuo was pruning flowers and plants in the garden, but his ears were sensitive, and he heard the sound of weapons colliding on the wall next to him, and when he turned his head slightly, he saw a row of soldiers standing on the wall of his house, all holding bows and arrows in their hands, and it seemed that they were also menacing.

Chu Tiankuo had made such preparations early on, he had such a house in Ming, that is, in case such a thing would happen one day, Tianji Pavilion had no connection with this place, and he only came to live in this place occasionally, it seems that Chu Junyou knows his habits very well and knows when he will be here.

"Are you Chu Tiankuo, Young Master Chu?"

Chu Tiankuo glanced back at the person who pushed open the door and came in, the man also looked like a military general, judging from his face, he should have also been stationed in the frontier, some vicissitudes, and this face, he looked very familiar, the person who came had a long sword hanging from his waist, and from the face he looked heroic, he looked like he should also be a former colleague.

He was quiet for a moment, then turned his head and walked over to the visitor.

"It's me, you should be...... Kyoto Imperial Guard sat down General Pei Jie? ”

Chu Tiankuo was in charge of Tianji Pavilion, so naturally he wouldn't even know about such a trivial matter, and when Gu Su Liang investigated these things about himself, he already knew about it, but he didn't expect that the person who arrested him this time would be Pei Jie.

"It's strange to say. Originally, you should be in charge of the Praetorian Guard, but why has it become like this now, subservient to the imperial guard? You know, your previous position was on par with that of the Imperial Guard, and I don't believe you'd be willing to work under him. ”

"You know me?" Pei Jie obviously didn't have any impression of the person in front of him.

"Of course I do. When I fought against Western Xia before. You and I used to be colleagues. Although the two of us can't make up the establishment, we have also been stationed in Leping County together, I don't know what General Pei is doing when he comes today? I'm no longer a frontier soldier, and I have nothing to do in this place to raise flowers and vegetables, so is it possible that I have violated some national law? ”

"There is no violation of the law of the land. However, General Chu used to be brave and good at fighting, and now at such a time, he has been reduced to planting vegetables and flowers in the countryside, don't you feel a little sorry for yourself? ”

"What's so sorry for myself, I'm tired of fighting and killing on the scene, and now I'm back in the countryside, is it possible that General Pei has any opinion on this?"

"I don't dare to have opinions, but there is one thing I have to remind General Chu, when I was on the battlefield, I Bei'an once reached a truce agreement with Western Xia, do you remember?"

"Of course, I remember, if not the agreement. I'm afraid that it will take a long time to fight a war. ”

"That's right, then I don't know if General Chu knows, what is written on that war agreement?"

"I don't know. After all, I wasn't the one who signed that agreement at the time. Didn't Prime Minister Gu Cheng tamper with the content of the agreement for the sake of the overall situation? Since he modified it, you can go to him, as far as I know, even if he is raided now, he is still alive, so that General Pei will not be able to find it. ”

"Gu Linjiang has long been a criminal, and since you know that he has been exiled, how can you not know that he has gone crazy?"

"Since Prime Minister Gu Cheng has gone crazy, and this matter has nothing to do with the grass people, I don't know why General Pei brought up this matter in this place?"

"Back then, you guarded the fortress, and I went to see that pass later, if you really defend it well, that place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it will never be able to attack it in four or five days."
