Chapter 43: Fight of Wisdom
"Teacher, have you assessed the risks here? Just a few of us, don't leave the palace, we may not be able to go out of the courtyard of Huguo. Yu Gu's persistence was not to be outdone, and he knocked on the table one after another, inadvertently adding a bit of momentum to his words.
"I've already thought about it, let's go find Hu Chong."
"Hu Chong? You're all right, don't you know that he is Hu Guo's brother, the soon-to-be-enthroned emperor of Windy City? Gu Bai shot back unceremoniously.
Yu Gu knew that it was difficult to convince them, and whether this matter was whimsical or not, he was not absolutely sure, but he would feel that he would help him.
"He will come to Hu Guo this morning, I will go to him, we will make preparations with both hands, once the negotiations break down, we will hold Hu Chong out of the palace."
Several people looked at each other without saying anything, and the room was suddenly silent, each weighing how to deal with this matter.
"Don't hesitate, just listen to Yu Gu, but I want to remind you of one thing, once you threaten Hu Chong, Fengcheng will threaten each other with herring, and the two parties are deadlocked, who will be the beneficiary, have you thought about it?" Teacher Shenghua was still worried, and there was a little more worry between his eyebrows.
"From what I know about him, he shouldn't be that stupid. Hurry up and pack your things and get ready to leave the palace at any time, maybe the prince of Windy City will send us out of the palace." The evil smile on the corner of Yu Gu's mouth was just like that cunning fox.
"Okay, then we'll meet here later, and we'll go find Hu Chong with you."
After finishing it, he walked out of the room lightly, and Gu Bai didn't forget to stare at Yu Gu for a long time before leaving, as if he was giving him color.
Yu Gu sat down and thought calmly for a long time, after so many years of not seeing, will Hu Chong still be the same as before?
"Yu Gu, Hu Chong went to Hu Guo's study and was talking to Hu Guo." Gloll came in from outside in a panic, panting and pleading.
Yu Gu could imagine how much he hated himself when he knew that he had ruined his sister, but this time he gambled on Hu Chong's way of governing the country, the choice between family affection and national affairs.
"Have you packed up?" Yu Gu washed his face with water, looked at himself in the mirror, and the corners of his eyes and mouth were all purple.
"It's just waiting for you, are you ready? Don't be pressured, it's a big deal to break the net with them. ”
Yu Gu held on to the armrests on both sides of the mirror, turned his head to look at Ge Luo, and said with a slight smile, "Don't worry about me, but you, you must protect yourself and don't be reckless." ”
Ge Luo knew that Yu Gu was kind-hearted and willing to think about others in everything, which may be the reason why she liked him, she grinned and said, "Got it, hurry up." Then he turned around and went out.
Yu Gu shrugged his shoulders, breathed a long sigh of relief, adjusted his condition to the best, and then went out, they had been waiting outside for a long time, everyone was lightly armed, and only brought their own weapons to watch the house.
"Look at you all serious, let's not go to die, let's be happy." Yu Gu wanted to take it easy, so that they could relax their minds and not be so nervous, but looking at them hanging their heads one by one, without any emotion, Yu Gu simply gave up, and said solemnly, "Take out your vigilance and cleverness, and act with my eyes later, especially you, Gu Bai, don't come nonsense, you can't afford to be responsible if something happens." ”
Gu Bai didn't say anything, he knew that the most important thing at the critical moment was to be complicit, so he nodded and responded.
From Hu Guo's room to the study, it was only a dozen meters, Yu Gu felt that this distance was unusually long, his feet seemed to be filled with lead, and every step he took was difficult.
Hu Guo's room was not guarded by guards, and the heaviness of the atmosphere inside could be felt outside the door, Yu Gu's raised hand remained in the air, and finally knocked on the door, but the cautious little in exchange was nothing more than respect, but a book thrown on the door from the inside.
Yu Gu looked at this book and didn't move, looked back at Teacher Shenghua, and gestured for a while, signaling them to step back and hide first.
He poured his strength into his right leg and kicked the door so hard that just as his foot was about to land on it, the door opened from the inside and nearly kicked Hugo.
"Yu Gu, why are you?"
Hu Guo asked first, and then looked at Hu Chong behind him, as if he was asking for help and advice.
"Let him in."
The cold attitude in Hu Chong's words was about to come out, Yu Gu pushed open the door that was only open by a crack, looking at Hu Chong's steep sword eyebrows, his expression was serious, he couldn't care so much, even if it was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, he could only break through.
"Hu Guo, you go out first, I have something to talk to your brother." Yu Gu deliberately wanted to take Hu Guo away, and he was afraid of the mountain Hu Guo in some words.
"What? What do you want to do with me, and you have to hide it from my sister? ”
"Get out, I won't quarrel with your brother." Yu Gu looked at Hu Guo, he didn't want to quarrel with him in front of Hu Guo.
"Okay, then you guys have a good talk, I'll go out first." Hu Guo glanced at his brother before going out, his eyes full of infinite love.
Yu Gu closed the door after sending Hu Guo out, and when he was about to turn around, he felt the sound of footsteps behind him approaching, and then a chill appeared on his neck.
"Are you trying to kill me?" Yu Gu turned around and looked at Hu Chong who was holding a long sword, his facial features were distinct, but he was delicate and smooth.
"Do you think you shouldn't have killed yourself?" Hu Chong responded to Yu Gu almost without thinking.
Yu Gu stretched out two fingers and clamped the end of the sword, the cold and thin sword end flashed with cold light, but it did not make Yu Gu afraid, his two fingers could hold the strength of Hu Chong's entire hand, after so many years, he was still a white-faced scholar, and his skills did not grow at all.
"Should you be killed if you are taken advantage of? Wouldn't you be more deserving of the killing? Yu Gu was not polite to this young man of his age, or even polite.
Hu Chong looked at the person in front of him who was completely opposite to his personality, the first time they met many years ago, he was dismounted by Yu Gu, he has always had palpitations, he is not a person who advocates force, but he understands in his heart that in this era of war and chaos, only force is the source of everything, these years, he has practiced hard and his skills, but he has no endowment, and he can't even do the most basic self-defense.
Seeing that Hu Chong didn't react, Yu Gu continued, "You have been used by your mother for so many years, you are a good son of your mother if you have a good sound, and a lackey if you don't have a good sound. ”
As soon as Yu Gu's words fell, the sword in Hu Chong's hand approached Yu Gu tremblingly, and Yu Gu snatched the sword and threw it on Lin without much effort.
The trembling muscles on Hu Chong's face were beating, Yu Gu knew where the weakness of the gentle scholar in front of him was, but he also knew that this imposing young man was not lacking in wisdom.
"You didn't come here to stir up a relationship between me and the queen mother, that would be too much of a loss of your identity as a prince." Hu Chong knew that against people like Yu Gu, force would not help, and he knew that Yu Gu was reasonable.
"Those who know me, Hu Chongye, I'm really here to stir up trouble. As for the identity of my prince, I'm afraid that only you treat me as a prince. Yu Gu began to be close to Hu Chongtao.
Hu Chong snorted, walked to the table, picked up the teapot and began to pour the tea, and said without turning his head, "Let's do you want to provoke, let me see the wisdom of your martial artist." When he was done, he sat down, leaned back in his chair, and held his teacup as if he were watching a play.
Yu Gu could hear it, this Hu Chong was not an ordinary scholar, his words were full of murderous intent, he strode towards Hu Chong, snatched Hu Chong's teacup that had not yet reached his mouth, and drank it into his stomach, and did not forget to look at Hu Chong after drinking, looking proud.
"Then you can listen and see if I can blind you and your mother."
Yu Gu put the teacup on the table, flicked his sleeves, wiped the chair next to him, and sat down.
