Chapter 54: Worshipping the Ancestors (400 Recommendations and Updates)
"Have you really decided to go back to Xianyang?" After arriving at Hangu Pass, that night, Gu Xiao had a negotiation with Meng Wu, and at that time, Meng Wu asked him so.
Gu Xiao pondered for a while and replied, "Of course, I'm going to get back everything that belongs to me!" β
"Do you have a goal?" Meng Wu asked.
Gu Xiao said: "Of course there is, my target is Gongzi Chu!" β
Defecting to Zichu was a decision he had already made.
You must know that King Qin Zhao, the overlord of the Qin State now, is already in his last years, and all major affairs of the court and government have been handed over to the crown prince An Guojun. And the son-in-law Chu, who won the love of the crown prince An Guojun and Mrs. Huayang, is almost the next prince who is ironclad.
What's more, he also has Zhu Jisheng's son by his side - Yingzheng!
With Yingzheng in hand, the current power of LΓΌ Buwei is far from reaching the point of leaning towards the government and the opposition later, as long as he takes refuge in Zichu's subordinates and has the support from the military, Zichu will definitely not refuse.
Gu Xiao made a bet that after Zichu ascended the throne, he would definitely be able to fight against LΓΌ Buwei with one article and one martial arts.
"Zi Chu Gongzi, this is indeed a good choice." Meng Wu thought about it, and had to admit that Gu Xiao's choice was indeed good.
Gu Xiao looked at Meng Wu in front of him and asked, "Is she okay?" β
He didn't name names, but Meng Wu naturally knew who he was talking about.
Meng Wu glanced at Gu Xiao with envious, jealous and hateful eyes, he really couldn't understand, why was this Xiaobai so popular with women? In the Qin Kingdom, there was a woman who was waiting for him like a wangfu stone, and finally came back, and there were actually two big beauties by her side. Could it be that the little white face is really so popular?
Envy in his heart, jealousy into jealousy, Meng Wu still replied honestly: "What else? Although you have been outside for the past few years, is it possible that you have never heard of the name of Widow Qing? She's about to turn into a lookout stone! β
Gu Xiao was shocked in his heart, of course he had heard of the name of Widow Qing, and when he heard this name, his mood was bitter. At that time, he couldn't have imagined that Qinqing, the stupid woman, had been waiting for him all along.
Syllable! Gu Xiao picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank the wine in the glass.
The cold drink slid into his neck, irritating him to cough, but he didn't realize it.
"I'm sorry for her!" Drinking all the wine in the cup in one go, Gu Xiao said in a muffled voice.
Meng Wudao: "Of course you're sorry for her!" She has never been married, and she has always hung a sign of the surviving person of the white door, do you think you are worthy of her? β
The more Meng Wu spoke, the more angry he became, and when he said that, he grabbed Gu Xiao's collar very simply and lifted him up from his seat.
"It's because I'm sorry for her that I want to get back everything that belongs to me!" Gu Xiao smiled stupidly.
He has never forgotten that over the years, in Qindi, there is a very stupid, very stupid woman waiting for him to go back. That's why he chose to make a name for himself and become a well-known swordsman and come back.
"When are you going to leave?" Meng Wu threw Gu Xiao away and asked.
Gu Xiao sat up and said, "I'll leave tomorrow!" β
Meng Wu nodded and said, "Then I won't send you, now I am the guard of this Hangu Pass, and I can't leave my post without permission!" β
Gu Xiao nodded and didn't say anything.
He understands the difficulties of Mengwu, the Qin people are good at martial arts and war, and similarly, behind this powerful army, there is also a very strict military discipline to support.
If Meng Wu dared to leave Hangu Pass without an edict and military order. I believe that it won't be long before his head will be hung on Hangu Pass.
The next day, Gu Xiao and his entourage left Hangu Pass and headed for Xianyang.
Not long after they set off, several Qin soldiers set off from Hangu Pass and rushed towards Xianyang.
Although Meng Wu couldn't send his own little back to Xianyang, he naturally took the place where he could help. These cavalry soldiers were all sent to Xianyang by him, and the letters he sent to his father Meng Fu, Xu Xian and others explained everything clearly in the letters.
At the same time, in the letters, Meng Wu also had to ask for a favor for his own hair, hoping that these bigwigs could help his hair.
Hangu closed, Meng Wu looked at the back of Gu Xiao and his party who were gradually moving away, and said secretly in his heart: Xiaobai, I can only help you get here!

After passing the Hangu Pass, the atmosphere of the group was obviously much duller.
The kabuki of the song and dance troupe and Ji Yanran's beautiful maids all looked very depressed, and they no longer returned to their usual cheerfulness.
Ji Yanran and Feng Fei, as the masters, are also in a similar situation, and the second daughter is obviously a little mustard after learning that the man she loves is Bai Qi's grandson.
After all, for people of this era, the name Bai is simply no different from a demon. It's just that now that the wood is in the boat, it's too late for them to regret it. Therefore, he could only follow Gu Xiao towards Xianyang City. Of course, for the second daughter who is already in love, they may not take these things to heart.
After passing the Hangu Pass, because they had already entered the hinterland of the Qin State, the process of the group was obviously much faster.
After about a month of driving, on this day, the group finally arrived at Duyou!
Once Du You passed, if you rode a horse, you could reach Xianyang within one day, even if their group was mainly based on carriages, but they could also reach Xianyang within three days.
After arriving at Du You, Gu Xiao's mood became more and more depressed.
It was here that he witnessed his grandfather kill himself!
At that time, he was just a ten-year-old child, and he saw his grandfather die tragically!
Although, because of this, he awakened his memory, but all this at the expense of his dearest grandfather. Sometimes, in Gu Xiao's heart, he really couldn't help it, and he would have such a thought: If Grandpa hadn't died back then, how good would it be?
"Everyone, stop!" After arriving at Du You, Gu Xiao raised his hand and motioned for the group to stop.
"What's wrong?" Feng Fei got out of the carriage and asked puzzled.
Gu Xiao said astringently: "I have something to do!" β
"You mean?" Ji Yanran undoubtedly had a seven-trick heart, and immediately knew what Gu Xiao was going to do.
Gu Xiao nodded and didn't say anything.
