Chapter 164: Night Talk at the Inn
It was getting late, and the luxurious carriage was parked in the backyard of the inn.
The number of days is on the house.
Gu Qinghe and Xiaoqing sat opposite each other.
Xiaoqing said: "Young master, your performance today is really good, and you made those two car drivers confused all at once." ”
After sandwiching a piece of meat and quickly eating it in his mouth and swallowing it, Gu Qinghe smiled lightly and said, "Little girl, let's eat quickly, don't mention those two people." ”
Hearing this, Xiaoqing pretended to be angry and said, "Young master, I said don't call someone else's little girl, they are ten years older than you, you should still call someone Xiaoqing." ”
Looking at Xiaoqing's angry expression and mischievous words, Gu Qinghe just smiled and stopped talking.
After a while, Xiao Qing seemed to have forgotten what had just happened, and asked again: "Young Master, are the two black-clothed men who drove the car really robbers?" ”
Gu Qinghe shook his head and said with a smile: "Maybe." ”
Xiaoqing has been Gu Qinghe's personal girl for more than ten years, except for Gu Qinghe's practice, Xiaoqing has not left Gu Qinghe, so Gu Qinghe trusts Xiaoqing very much, and Gu Qinghe has a lot of things in his heart that he will say to Xiaoqing.
And with Gu Qinghe's understanding of Xiaoqing, Gu Qinghe also knew that Xiaoqing would not talk too much outside.
Because of this, Gu Qinghe told Xiaoqing a lot of unnecessary secrets, his skill realm, his mission to the Heavenly Star Sword Sect, and so on.
It can be said that apart from the matter of the main god, Gu Qinghe did not hide Xiaoqing a little.
Regarding the wrestling between King Zhennan and the Heavenly Star Sword Sect, Gu Qinghe also analyzed it to Xiaoqing.
When Xiao Qing heard that King Zhennan was very likely to assassinate Gu Qinghe and exchange Gu Qinghe's life for compensation for the Heavenly Star Sword Technique Secret Book, Xiao Qing was very surprised.
So the robber he met just now, Xiaoqing suspected that this was a killer sent by the Zhennan Palace.
After hearing Gu Qinghe's mock answer, Xiaoqing asked cautiously: "Young master, do you think those robbers will be kings... Sent by the palace? ”
Gu Qinghe smiled lightly and said, "No, the assassins from the palace are not so weak, and I haven't reached the Heavenly Star Sword Sect yet, so I don't think the assassins from the palace will do it now." ”
Xiaoqing nodded and said, "Young Master, do you mean that those robbers are indeed real robbers?" ”
After eating a little full, Gu Qinghe put down his rice bowl, shook his head, and said: "If they can be killed by someone with one move, they must be real thieves, but I don't know if they are thieves who are raised by others." ”
"Young master, you say, if those thieves are raised by people, who are they raised? Will be king... Royalty? ”
"I said that the palace will not do it to me now, they are naturally not raised by the palace...... Maybe... Maybe they were raised by the Heavenly Star Sword Sect. ”
Hearing the Heavenly Star Sword Sect, Xiao Qing involuntarily raised his voice and said in surprise: "Heavenly Star Sword Sect? ”
"Young Master, isn't the Heavenly Star Sword Sect the sect you are going to? How could they send someone to assassinate you? ”
Gu Qinghe smiled before he said: "Little girl, the king of Zhennan may exchange the life of a son for the compensation of the Heavenly Star Sword Technique, can we think of this, will no one in the Star Sword Sect think of it?" ”
Gu Qinghe will tell Xiaoqing some things on his mind, because when discussing with Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing will ask some questions, although many of these questions are very simple.
But being asked repeatedly will also make Gu Qinghe understand the whole thing more thoroughly, which is a supplement to thinking.
And Xiaoqing is actually very smart, although she usually behaves very dullly, Gu Qinghe can still see her hidden spirituality in the depths.
As usual, Gu Qinghe only reminded him slightly, and Xiao Qing added and speculated about the next thing, and said, "Young Master, you mean to say that the Heavenly Star Sword Sect is trying to prevent you from being taken by the king... He was killed by the assassins in the Celestial Star Sword Sect, and then your father threatened with your life to obtain the Celestial Star Sword Technique of the Celestial Star Sword Sect. ”
"The Heavenly Star Sword Sect wants to prevent this, so they want the young master to die in the middle of the road?"
Some of the grease at the corners of his mouth had been wiped dry, and Gu Qinghe smiled again: "Yes, your young master is a miserable life, there are so many people who want to kill him, little girl, what do you say you should do now?" ”
After getting along with Gu Qinghe for so many years, of course Xiaoqing knew that this sentence was just Gu Qinghe's words that wanted to play tricks on her, and she also heard Gu Qinghe's unworried tone.
So Xiaoqing also let go of her worries and worries.
She just secretly looked at Gu Qinghe, and then she slowly ate her meal.
……
At this time, some things were also being discussed in another room next to Gu Qinghe's room.
The little coachman asked, "Master, Gu Nineteen is the third son sent by the prince to the Heavenly Star Sword Sect, right?" Do you think the Heavenly Star Sword Sect will send someone to assassinate this time? ”
The old coachman smiled slightly and said, "Little rabbit, don't you know everything?" Isn't that gang of robbers you met today from that sect? ”
The little coachman smiled and said, "What Master said is very true, although we didn't find anything on the corpse, but no one on this road dared to appear in front of the special carriage of my palace." ”
The old coachman twisted his beard and nodded with a smile, indicating the correctness of the little coachman's words.
"Master, the first two princes who went to the Heavenly Star Sword Sect have already returned safely, why did the Heavenly Star Sword Sect send someone to assassinate Gu Nineteen and prevent Gu Nineteen from reaching the Heavenly Star Sword Sect? If the prince really wanted to threaten the Heavenly Star Sword Sect with the death of the prince, then how could those two princes be fine? The Heavenly Star Sword Sect wouldn't even be unable to think of this, would it? ”
The old coachman frowned and said, "Xiao Yan, we don't care about the affairs of the palace, don't mention such things in the future, you know?" ”
The little coachman did not give up and continued: "Master, it stands to reason that we really shouldn't take care of the affairs of the palace, but if we don't know these things, we may not even know how to die in the future. ”
"You don't know about the affairs of this palace, the forces of the entire palace are staggered, even if you are the master, you may lose your life if you make a mistake, let alone Xiao Yan, so Xiao Yan wants to know these things, maybe these things can save the lives of our master and apprentice in the future."
"Master... Master, just tell Xiao Yan. ”
After speaking, Xiao Yan stared at the old coachman very sincerely.
After a long time, the old coachman sighed and said, "Alas, okay, who let Xiao Yan you be raised by the old man, I will reveal some to you today." ”
Hearing this, Xiao Yan was immediately overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Master, thank you, Master." ”
The old coachman said, "Xiao Yan, do you know why the first two princes were able to leave the Heavenly Star Sword Sect alive? ”
Xiao Yan was slightly stunned and said, "Why?" ”
"It's very simple, because the prince doesn't want them to die, so they can leave the Heavenly Star Sword Sect safely."
"What about Gu Nineteen? Does the prince not want Gu Nineteen to die? Or is it true that the prince sent the prince to the Heavenly Star Sword Sect just to let the prince steal the Heavenly Star Sword Technique, is the prince really reluctant to give up his son's life? ”
Seeing that he had only revealed a little information, Xiao Yan said so many problems, and the old coachman knocked on Xiao Yan's head and said, "Little rabbit, where did so many problems come from?" Listen to the old man, just listen to me. ”
Xiao Yan touched his head and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes, Xiao Yan knows that he is wrong, Xiao Yan will listen to what the master says." ”
Afterwards, the old coachman told Xiao Yan what he knew.
What the old coachman meant: The reason why the first two princes did not die in the Heavenly Star Sword Sect was that the Heavenly Star Sword Sect was too tightly protected, and the assassins who went to assassinate them were not able to succeed at all.
Of course, King Zhennan was also wavering in the matter of killing his son, so the assassins who went to the Heavenly Star Sword Sect were some low-level assassins, which was the fundamental reason why the first two princes could live.
Gu Qinghe was the third prince to go to the Heavenly Star Sword Sect, and the prince should have made up his mind at this time.
And for this, the Heavenly Star Sword Sect also understood very well, so when the Heavenly Star Sword Sect was halfway through the carriage, the Heavenly Star Sword Sect couldn't help but make a move.
After listening to the old coachman's words, the little coachman nodded and said, "No wonder, the first two times we met the assassin when there were only two days left, and now there are still five days away, and we have met the thieves raised by the Heavenly Star Sword Sect, it seems that our line is indeed dangerous." ”
The old coachman also nodded and said, "Yes, we are indeed very dangerous this time." ”
At this time, the little coachman Xiao Yan asked again: "By the way, Master, you said that this time the prince has made up his mind, then we should be able to reach the Heavenly Star Sword Sect safely?" ”
"Master, do we have the hidden power of the palace to follow us this time?"
The old coachman was about to answer, when a very loud shout came from the inn.
"It's on fire, come and put out the fire!"
"It's on fire, put out the fire!"
"Run, it's on fire!"
“……”
Listening to the chaotic sound coming from outside the room, the two coachmen, one old and one young, glanced at each other, and the old coachman immediately said, "Not good! Nineteenth Young Master has something! ”
"Xiao Yan, you go to drive the horse, and I will save the nineteenth young master."
"Yes."
Then, the two coachmen ran out of the room at the same time, one ran to the room where Gu Qinghe was next to him, and the other ran towards the backyard of the inn. (To be continued.) )
