Dark Guard said: "Back to the master, my subordinates heard that since Marquis Xiao came to Yumen Pass, the battle with the Liao people has basically been more wins and fewer losses. ”

"Will he fight himself?"

"That's not true, as a commander, he is at most standing on the city gate and commanding the battlefield. However, I heard that on the Liao side, someone came to assassinate him several times, but no one hurt Xiao Houye. ”

Gu Dian nodded, planning to find an opportunity to fight Xiao Yao to see how deep he was.

Dark Wei Yi heard that although now at the Yumen Pass, the descendants of Dingguo Gong have basically been dispersed. However, Yang Chi, the Shenwei general, stayed at Yumen Pass and opposed Xiao Yao from time to time.

Gu Dian was noncommittal, Yang Chitong was originally scheduled to have a good national bus, and he thought that he could guard Yumen Pass. Unexpectedly, in the end, Emperor Hong Zheng gave the handsome seal to Xiao Yao.

Dark guard said: "Master, I heard that Xiao Yao has been cleaning up spies since he came to Yumen Pass. I heard that a total of 21 families, nearly 60 people, were implicated, and they were all severely punished. ”

"These border passes are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the most feared thing is that there are spies and open the city gates from the inside out. Such things cannot be prevented, and prevention is the best. ”

Gu Dian said, and said approvingly: "Xiao Yao's qualifications are not as good as Yang Chi, and his prestige is even worse than that of Lao Dingguogong." I want to use the shortest time to gain a foothold in Yumen Pass. This is a good starting point. ”

The secret guard Ding found out that the general's mansion was full of men, whether it was sprinkling or sweeping, or the people in the kitchen, they were all Xiao Yao's personal guards.

To put it bluntly, in the General's Mansion, even the rats are male, and there is no female.

Gu Dian was even more satisfied, and his favor for Xiao Yao increased from three points to five points. decided to watch it privately at Yumen Pass for two days, and then went to the General's Mansion to officially meet Xiao Yao.

In fact, what Gu Dian didn't know was that the news at the gate of the city that night, as well as the information about strangers living in the inn, were all summarized in the General's Mansion.

Xiao Yao was a little suspicious when he saw a person wearing a mask entering the customs.

When I knew that the man wearing the mask was a subordinate who was asking around in Yumen Pass today, and the rumors related to him were basically certain that it was Gu Dian who came.

"Come on, I'm going to the Fulai Inn, if you have any important military information, come there to find me."

Lu Fei was a little puzzled: "General, what acquaintances are there in the inn?" If you know him, the general can call him to come to the General's Mansion, and there is no need to go to the inn in person. ”

"I'm not sure yet, let's take a look first."

Xiao Yao said, took off his armor and hurriedly bathed, changed into a strong suit, and went to the Fulai Inn.

Gu Dian didn't rest yet, he asked for a fried roe deer, as well as roasted mutton, and in the room, he slowly drank the cheap daughter red.

When he heard a knock on the door, Gu Dian was a little strange, but he also had some intention in his heart and asked the dark guard to open the door.

Xiao Yao stood at the door, looked at Gu Dian who was drinking alone at the table by the window, and arched his hand: "Under Xiao Yao, I don't know if you are the Gu family of Guanwen Hou?" ”

Gu Dian put down the wine glass with a smile and said lightly: "Yes, I am Gu Dian of the Guanwen Marquis Mansion." ”

Xiao Yao hurriedly strode in, bowed down and bowed: "Xiao Yao has seen Gu Shibo, I didn't know that Gu Shibo was coming, and I missed the welcome, and I ask for forgiveness." ”

"I came quietly, and I didn't tell you, what are your crimes? It's just that I didn't expect you to find it so quickly. It seems that the entire Yumen Pass is under your control. ”

Gu Dian accepted Xiao Yao's salute and praised his ability.

In addition, Xiao Yao is dressed in a strong suit, and his posture is even more upright, with both the iron-blooded atmosphere of a military general and the elegance of a civil servant.

Looking at his handsome and outstanding appearance, Rao is Gu Dian is more demanding, and he has to say that he deserves his reputation.

Gu Shibo praised it falsely, just because the Yang family, the original Duke of the country, was destroyed in the hands of meticulous work. That's why I dug three feet into the ground, and I had to punish him heavily, so as to set an example. ”

Xiao Yao was afraid of Gu Dian, and his first impression of himself was that he had killed too many people, so he hurriedly explained.

Gu Dian smiled and said, "I heard that you have known Mingzhu for several years, can you tell me about it?" I heard that Shanhaiguan was very dangerous back then, and it was all thanks to your sacrifice to protect Mingzhu that Mingzhu could be fine. There are also a few times when Mingzhu is in distress, and you sacrificed your life to save me, I want to know. ”

Since Gu Dian, the future father-in-law, opened his mouth, Xiao Yao naturally had to comply.

Besides, if you want to marry someone's baby daughter, of course you have to be sincere, Gu Dian can come thousands of miles to Yumen Pass to see each other, and he must treat each other with sincerity.

Xiao Yao pondered for a moment, organized the language, and told Gu Dian how to know Mingzhu and what happened later.

Gu Dian has always regretted that he didn't think of the past earlier, so that Mingzhu was alone for so many years. Now listening to Xiao Yao talk about these past events, he listens to them with relish.

However, as Xiao Yao said more and more, Gu Dian also began to understand.

Why does Mingzhu fall in love with Xiao Yao? Indeed, they have experienced too many things together.

Gu Dian had heard Mingzhu mention it sporadically before, and he had also heard Empress Dowager Zhong say it. Now listening to Xiao Yao's story, I also understand that Xiao Yao is the best destination for Mingzhu.

"Gu Shibo, I was my grandmother at the beginning, I'm sorry Princess Mingzhu. It's just that now that my grandmother has passed away, please don't care about Gu Shibo, and rest assured that you will hand over the pearl to me. I swear that I will be good to her for the rest of my life, and if there is anything sorry for her, let Gu Shibo deal with it, and there will be no words. ”

After Gu Dian heard what Xiao Yao said, he was actually moved in his heart.

It's just that he said lightly: "Mingzhu is my lost daughter, for me, I naturally want to give him the best thing in the world." ”

"I understand what Gu Shibo means, and I can't wait to give the best things to Mingzhu."

Xiao Yao is not stupid, seize the opportunity to confess his heart.

Although Gu Dian didn't take a sip, he said: "In that case, I still want to compete with you to see if you can protect Mingzhu for a lifetime." ”

Xiao Yao also knew that his father-in-law was probably unpleasant to look at his son-in-law, and he had not personally tested his ability, Gu Shibo would not, so he could rest assured that he would hand over the pearl to himself.

"What Gu Shibo said, Xiao Yao has no objection, I don't know what Gu Shibo wants to compare?"

Gu Dian touched his short beard and said with a smile: "Words are like people, and the first level is better than words." The second level can be compared to horse shooting, and the third level is won or lost by chess games. How is it? ”

"Okay, Xiao Yao is not talented, I am willing to give it a try."

Gu Dian waved his hand: "I heard that the Liao people raided the pass yesterday, you better go back and rest first." After a few days of calm, it's not too late for you and me to compete. ”

Xiao Yao didn't dare to despise Gu Dian, the original prince of Guanwen Hou Shizi, his reputation in the capital was not weaker than his own.

"Thank you Gu Shibo, if there is no war in these two days, the test day will be set in three days? How is Gu Shibo? ”
