Chapter 161: One Stone Stirs Up a Thousand Waves

It's just that such a thing belongs to their private question, and even if they see it, they will definitely not ask such a disliked question, but now, looking at Zhang Youmin's not very good face, they can only sigh slightly.

No fate is no fate, no matter how much you struggle, it is just in vain.

They still take care of these chrysanthemums, and they can't think of anything else.

Why doesn't Zhang Youmin understand such a truth? That's why he didn't go over just now.

It's actually pretty good now, and it's not too embarrassing for anyone.

It would be nice if we met in the future, and we could go shopping like we do now.

Chapter 161: Take it away

"What? Found the key? ”

"In whose hands?"

"In the hands of the Mirror Lake Palace?"

"It seems to be in the hands of the woman of the palace master of the Mirror Lake Palace."

One stone stirs up a thousand waves!

The news of finding the key was released like this, and suddenly, everyone already knew about it, and the key to the treasure was in Xu Xi's hands.

It's a pity that behind Xu Xi is the entire Jinghu Palace, which also deters the people in the entire Jianghu court, so that they don't dare to act rashly.

Otherwise, I'm afraid this scene would have been out of control a long time ago, where can we wait until now?

But despite this, this time it is all together.

As early as two days ago, the entire Nanzhao City was already in chaos, as long as it was something that looked like the key, it was brought back, or it was snatched away.

The county magistrate and the prefect of Nanzhaocheng are also a little powerless.

However, it was also at this time that the appearance of the Qingyun Army made these people more or less converged, and Wei Shuo finally came.

Now, Gu Chaoci is not only a person in the rivers and lakes, but also stands by Wei Shuo's side.

Therefore, many people already know that Cheng Sanyuan's apprentice Gu Chaoci turned out to be the most famous army in the Northern Yan Kingdom, the general of the Qingyun Army, and the fiancΓ©e of the prince of the Chengsheng General's Mansion.

Such a double identity has also amazed many people. First Xu Xi, then Gu Chaoci.

Could it be that the identity of the little girl now is already so shocking? Some of them have really worked hard all their lives, and they can't reach such a height. Therefore, it is very important to cast a good tire, and it is even more important to have a strong other half.

"May I ask Miss Xu, did you really find the key to the treasure of Xia Guo?" The leader of the martial arts alliance learned the news as soon as possible, and hurried to the courtyard where Xu Xi was, although he tried his best to restrain himself, it was not difficult to see his anxious look.

It's been five or six days, and I thought I couldn't find it, but I didn't expect that there would be such an unexpected joy.

Xu Xi, Gu Chaoci, and Pei Huai have also gone out a few times, and Tang Qianling and Nie Chenghui have disappeared all day, and this kind of sign is also a good interpretation that they have gone to Nanzhao City to find the key to unlocking the treasure, but they are highly skilled and found it first.

There really won't be anyone who doubts that this so-called key to unlocking the treasure was actually in Xu Xi's hands from the very beginning.

The reason why they always go out is just to hide people's eyes and ears, release a fog, and make people look incorrectly.

"Yes." Xu Xi nodded and said lightly.

Immediately took out the key from his arms, although the lines on the key are not very clear, but faintly, it can still be seen that the pattern carved on the jade piece is the same as the pattern on the door.

If you compare it, you will find that the nicks on this jade piece and the nicks on the door are actually just right.

So, there is no doubt that this jade piece is the key they are looking for.

"It's really the key to the treasure, it's really good." When the martial arts alliance leader saw the jade piece in Xu Xi's hand, he immediately said with a smile.

His eyes flickered slightly, as if he had a different kind of brilliance, and Xu Xi just looked at this martial arts alliance leader, so he took this jade piece back and put it away.

Others will think that this martial arts alliance leader is very benevolent and really a good person, but Xu Xike doesn't think so much, this person is very much like that kind of hypocrite.

Anyway, the heart of defense is indispensable, especially if it is such a stranger, it is already very good to be able to show him.

This is because he is the leader of the martial arts alliance, and the place where they live now is Wanjia Villa, which has something to do with this martial arts alliance master, otherwise, if other people come to her and want to take a look at this jade tablet, she will not give it.

Just when the martial arts alliance leader was smiling, thinking in his heart whether to do it at this time or not, suddenly, a burst of footsteps came, which also made the martial arts alliance leader completely give up the plan to snatch it before he had thought about it.

Because the person who came was no one else, it was really Pei Huai who came with Tang Qianling and Nie Chenghui.

In addition, there are two people, Gu Chaoci and Wei Shuo.

"The leader of the Martial Arts Alliance is actually there?" Pei Huai asked coldly.

"Palace Master." The leader of the martial arts alliance called out to Pei Huai with a smile, and then said, "I didn't hear that the key was found, so I came over to take a look." It's a good idea to check it out and spread the word. ”

"So the martial arts alliance leader has confirmed it?" Pei Huai asked coldly again.

For the so-called "good person" and "benevolent" martial arts alliance leader in front of him, to be honest, Pei Huai really didn't have a cold at all, and he didn't want to say anything to him.

Anyway, in the eyes of these righteous people, he, the palace master of the Mirror Lake Palace, is not necessarily a good person.

Naturally, when he starts to do things, he will be more freewheeling. Especially with his identity, there is definitely no need to bow to such a person.

It is really because of this, in fact, the leader of the martial arts alliance has been suppressed in front of Pei Huai. Whether it is status, strength, or such a coercion, he is slightly inferior.

"Oh, it's confirmed." The martial arts alliance leader still had that impeccable smile on his face, and said, "I'll go first." ”

"Hmm." Pei Huai nodded slightly, agreeing that he could go.

But such a feeling brought a stomach of unhappiness to this martial arts alliance leader, but it was not good to attack on the spot, because with his ability, the first could not compete with the Mirror Lake Palace, and the second could not beat Pei Huai.

This makes people very aggrieved.

After the martial arts alliance leader left, Gu Chaoci and Wei Shuo walked in front of Xu Xi and said: "Xu Xi, Wei Shuo said that the emperor also wants this treasure, you say, if we really find this treasure, will we hand it over or not?" ”

After all, if they really found it, even if there were a lot of people connected to it, with the ability of a few of them, as well as the ability of the entire Mirror Lake Palace, it would be possible to get a piece of the pie.

But now the question is, do they have to hand over everything they get to the state?

It is estimated that there will be no benefit to be gained by handing it over to the state. Just like before, when they defeated the proud armies of Donghua and Southern Jin in a row, they were just rewarded with a little gadget and a verbal compliment or two, but in fact there was nothing.

And the firearms developed by Gu Chaoci have also been handed over, what is the result? Nothing good.

Although it is said that as a person from the Northern Yan Kingdom, he should win glory for the country, but .....

This is not a small amount of gold and silver jewelry, but it may be a huge fortune.

If they use it themselves, they may not be able to use it up in this life, and if they turn it over to the treasury like this, wouldn't it be a pity? Anyway, Gu Chaoci doesn't seem to be very happy.

That's why I came to ask Xu Xi what he meant.

As for the national teacher next to him, he was consciously ignored by Gu Chaoci. Because in her opinion, as long as Xu Xi agrees, Pei Huai will definitely agree.

"Since the emperor also wants this treasure, then I have to ask General Wei to work hard to get a piece of the pie." Xu Xi thought about it, looked at Wei Shuo on the side with a smile, and said.

"Xu Xi, do you mean that what we get is not handed over to the treasury?" Gu Chaoci's eyes lit up in an instant, staring straight at Xu Xi, and asked with a little expectation.

If Xu Xi doesn't turn it in, then she doesn't have that reason to turn it in, right? Hehe, if that's the case, maybe if she works hard this time and gets a little gold, silver and jewelry, it will be enough for her to run here and there to experience the life of the children of the rivers and lakes.

You don't have to run around for money, which is a good thing.

"If you don't want to pay, don't show your money, okay?" Xu Xi said with a smile, "I believe that General Wei will definitely not secretly tell the informant, right?" ”

"He dares, if he dares to tell the truth, I will make him look good." Wei Shuo hadn't answered Xu Xi's words yet, Gu Chaoci, who was excited on the side, blurted out all of a sudden, and then clenched his fists and raised in front of Wei Shuo, the meaning of which couldn't be more obvious.

If he dares to tell the truth, the consequences will be ...... Hum!

"Naturally, I wouldn't dare." Wei Shuo hurriedly said.

"That's pretty much it." Gu Chaoci nodded with satisfaction, and put his fist down as he spoke.

"I don't dare to say it, though, but ....." Wei Shuo said, turning his head to look at Pei Huai, who was still wearing a ghost mask on the side, other people didn't know his identity, but it just so happened that Wei Shuo knew, so he said, "I don't know if the national teacher will tell the truth?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Gu Chaoci instantly looked at Xu Xi, and suddenly made Xu Xi a little inexplicable and asked, "Chaoci, what are you watching me do?" The person General Wei is talking about is not me. ”

"It's not you, but who made you the national teacher lady recognized by everyone now, at this time, isn't it time for you to take a stand?" Gu Chao said righteously.

"This is his business, and he is the one who should make the decision, where can I persuade him? You're really looking up to me. Besides, I'm not the wife of the national teacher yet, but he already has an aunt in his house, so I'd better not go and join in the fun. ”
