Volume 1 The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Chapter 123 The Falling Flowers Are the Most Ruthless

The prince's mansion in the capital of Liangguo, also known as the Qin Wangfu by some people, the whole mansion is located in Tianbo Street, Dongcheng District, where the powerful gather, covering a wide area, which is built according to Gu Cang's own planning, the construction has a unique flavor, all kinds of independent yards, rockery ponds, pavilions and pavilions, all available, Huang Zi Gongqing, who comes and goes here every day, is even more unknown, and the people who want to enter the prince's mansion to do things almost break through the threshold, here is also called a small cabinet by some people with ill intentions in the outside world, but Gu Yi in the imperial study listened, often laughed, but the person who took the initiative to report the matter was scared。

The frost girl, one of Gu Cang's two personal maids, spends most of the day in this birdcage, but in the palm-sized room, as usual, once she has the latest important information sent, after checking it carefully, she will personally leave this place that does not seem to be amazing, but it is actually the largest intelligence yamen in the Liang Kingdom, the headquarters of the net, and then go to the house where Gu Cang, the king of Qin, is.

It's not so much that she is a competent maid or subordinate, but that she is just to find a reason to stay with the prince who works all day long, although even if she stays in the house, Gu Cang will not drive her away, but the girl's family is really thin-skinned.

No matter how strong a woman is outside, once she is in front of her beloved, she is still a soft and weak little girl who needs to be pity, and she is the same.

Gu Cang propped his hands on the table, rubbed his eyes gently, and sighed helplessly: "Is there so much new information again?"

It's not that he doesn't have anyone available under him, so it makes him seem like he has to deal with everything personally, but there are really many things that can't be faked by others, such as the information about the fifth brother who is far away on the border of Youzhou, as well as the important information sent from the spies in several surrounding countries, all of which he has to personally review and issue new instructions.

Seeing Gu Cang's somewhat complaining look, Ning Shuang couldn't help but bow his head in shame and said, "It's Shuang'er who is wrong." ”

When Gu Cang heard this, he suddenly stretched out his hand, raised her chin lightly, and said with a smile: "Where did Shuang'er come from, it's just that Gongzi and I have found so many things to do for myself." ”

Before the delicate maid's face flushed, Gu Cang quickly retracted his hand, then picked up a scroll from the table, and after slowly unfolding it, his voice trembled slightly: "Let's start with this one." ”

"Fifth brother went to Yanzhou?"

As soon as he read the first few words, his expression changed suddenly, and the slightest charm in the room was instantly broken.

Gu Cang eagerly asked, "When did this happen?"

Ning Shuang was shocked, knowing that something big had happened, he quickly calculated in his heart, then raised his head again, and said seriously: "According to the time when the information was handed over from there, it should have been a day ago!"

When Gu Cang heard this, he immediately closed his eyes, but his hands had not yet put down the intelligence scroll, and the whole person seemed to be pondering.

After a while, he finally opened his eyes again, and said with his eyebrows: "Use the fastest speed to inform the members over there, let them search carefully inch by inch along the area from Huangsha County to Hulan County, and once you find the whereabouts of the fifth brother, don't act rashly, just escort him back to the city secretly!"

"Yes!"

Ning Shuang had never seen Gu Cang show such an eager expression in his life until now, and he knew that something was not quite right at the moment, so he didn't ask carefully, so he quickly wanted to get up and walked out, but he was stopped by Gu Cang from behind coldly.

"Wait. Gu Cang regained his former self-confidence and calmness at this time, "Maybe my speculation is wrong, the fifth brother has always acted steadily, they may not know the identity of the fifth brother first, and second, they may not be able to accurately track the location of the fifth brother, it should be fine, but let the members over there do what I just said, be cautious, it's always right, then again, the people around Duanmu Shuofeng still can't be inserted?"

Mentioning this, Ning Shuang was also a little powerless, so he could only hang his head and say helplessly: "Prince Yu, that's right, this person is very cautious, he has always used people from his mother's Wei Chi family, or he is completely familiar with his heels, and his subordinates have secretly inserted some, but unfortunately they were all eliminated by the new middle-aged scribe a few days ago, and the only one who has sneaked down, but he is not by his side, and he can't pass too much news out." ”

Gu Cang touched his chin and muttered to himself, "Illuminati?"

After a while, he finally came back to his senses and said to Ning Shuang, who was still standing at the door: "Okay, you go and inform the other side first, and by the way, you will get me all the latest information on the entire Western Continent, I want everything from the heaven level to the god level!"

Luowang, the largest intelligence yamen in the imperial court, according to Gu Cang's thoughts, divides all the information into five levels, from heaven to god, span so much, completely covering all aspects of intelligence in the entire Western Continent, unless it is some trivial things, otherwise as long as the local spies themselves feel that they should say, they will be passed back, this is really a huge amount, I am afraid that I may not be able to read it for half a month in a row.

But Ning Shuang didn't say much about it, just retreated very obediently, closed the door, and walked briskly towards the small courtyard.

Watching Ning Shuang leave, Gu Cang also breathed a sigh of relief, temporarily put down the paperwork in his hand, opened a cup of soup newly sent by the people on the side, and at the end, he also dug out a soft stewed old ginseng from the cup, looked calm, bit it down one by one, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.

Produced in the mountains of Haizhou for thousands of years, it nourishes qi and benefits blood, but this kind of big tonic, most people are only used to make soup, drink a little juice, and never dare to swallow it directly, because this powerful drug, once eaten, it will inevitably catch fire, bleed, or be hyperactive and unable to sleep, these are all trivial, especially for those who are seriously ill and have a serious deficit of qi and blood, they can not swallow it like this, because any drug is two-sided, if it is used well, it is a tonic that saves people, and if it is not used well, it is a poison that kills people, and it is a poison that kills people。

Gu Cang has suffered from the terminal illness of continuous loss of qi and blood since he was a child, and he must die early, and the gods he eats on weekdays are all some medicinal and soft medicines, focusing on slowly nourishing, it is said that he should not have eaten this grade of ginseng like this, but I don't know why, he has recently begun to secretly swallow some big tonic medicines, and deliberately opened two maids, except for the people who boiled soup and medicine for him, no one knew.

This time to drink soup and eat ginseng, even if it is a rare rest time in his day, he can't sleep for two hours a day, and the rest of the time is spent in this small room except for eating and tonics, in front of this small square table, dealing with official business, and spending the whole day.

Don't say it's condensation, Xiaolu's two personal maids who have been by her side since she was a child, even if outsiders see him like this, they are afraid that they will cry secretly.

Not long after, Frost quickly walked over with a thick stack of papers.

It was really difficult to carry the files directly, so she had to go over the books privately, open the files, fold them one by one, and then put them together and walked over.

"What are you eating?"

Ning Shuang, who had just entered the door, suddenly screamed out of shape, and then quickly dropped the tray in his hand, ignoring the important information scattered on the ground, and ran over quickly, and then snatched the bowl of praise in Gu Cang's hand.

Gu Cang's face showed an expression of being discovered by an adult who had done something wrong, and he was very helpless.

"Frost, I'。。。。。。 ”

Ning Shuang stirred the cup a few times, and then recognized most of the medicinal herbs in it, and immediately said with a puzzled face: "Your body, how can you take this kind of great tonic! Your diet is all in charge of the slave and Xiaolu, is this what she praised for you?"

Ning Shuang, who has always loved and indulged Xiaolu's sister very much, is so angry for the first time, in her opinion, this is simply irresponsible, if something happens to the prince, then she 。。。。。。

Unexpectedly, Gu Cang shook his head very seriously, and said calmly: "I asked my subordinates to do it secretly." ”

"You, how can this be? The imperial doctor also specially instructed us not to give you a tonic that is too strong!" a tear in Ning Shuang's eyes even blurred his vision, "Do you know your body。。。。。。 ”

Gu Cang interrupted her with his mouth open, and said directly: "It's because I know that I will do this, my body is very good, don't worry, did you bring the file I wanted?"

Ning Shuang, who has always been docile, raised objections to Gu Cang for the first time in his life.

"No, you really need to rest!"

Gu Cang's whole person was stunned for a moment, his face sank, and he said angrily: "Presumptuous! You are the position of the deputy commander of the net, how many people can't ask for it, do you know? If you don't do it, there will naturally be a lot of people to do it! You are just a subordinate, and I am the prince of the East Palace, do I need you to tell me what I want to do? Don't forget your identity!"

Since becoming the prince's personal maid, for more than ten years, this gentle-natured prince has always treated them as equals, and has never said a word of seriousness, which has also led to Xiaolu directly not treating herself as a person, arrogant, and even making wanton comments on the court officials, throwing faces at Jing Zhaoyin and Gu Xuan.

But Ning Shuang is different from the ignorant sister, she has never thought of it like this, she has always known that she is not worthy of the prince, she just has a slight hope for that kind of unrealistic thing, as long as she can be by Gu Cang's side for the rest of her life, she will be content.

It's a pity that this flame of hope was extinguished by Gu Cang today.

Ning Shuang lowered his head, refusing to let Gu Cang see his current embarrassed appearance, holding back tears, and said in a choked voice: "Please, please forgive the prince, it is the slave and maid who have overpassed, and the slave and maid will take it for you." ”
