Chapter 147: A Special Mission

"That's what I'm here for."

Gao Changgong's tone was inexplicably a little more dignified.

Gu Zimo also took away his joking tone, "Your Highness, do you suspect that someone has manipulated this matter?" This city is one of the important checkpoints of my Northern Qi Dynasty, and it is linked to the lifeblood of our country, if something goes wrong...... Our country is in danger of national destruction......"

"Yes, even you can see that? Indeed, if someone uses the ghost theory to shake this city, I am afraid that it will not be long before this city will become a ruined city......

"Does Your Majesty know about this?" Gu Zimo suddenly had a bad premonition.

"What do you think?"

"Could it be...... Is it the prime minister? Gu Zimo suddenly thought of Gao Wen's words, for his own interests not to be threatened, even for the king of Lanling, who defended the national territory and defended the country for the country, as long as he caused a threat, even if he knew that he would not seek power and usurp the throne, he would still find a way to get rid of him.

And, those of them want to move Gao Changgong, but they can't come hard, otherwise even if Gao Changgong doesn't rebel, it will also cause a situation of forcing the palace, so Ming Xiu plank road secretly crossed Chen Cang and united outsiders...... Eradicate dissidents......

"Is he crazy? Actually colluded with the enemy country to frame the generals of their own country! Your Highness, if this tin city is lost, you will be attacked by the enemy in the future, oh my God, the prime minister is really crazy, although this restricts you, but it makes the enemy country take a big advantage...... If you do this, you are tantamount to putting the country in dire straits, if Your Majesty knows it......"

"Do you think that if His Majesty does not instruct this move, the prime minister alone can call the shots?"

"You mean, even Your Majesty?"

Gu Zimo suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

But when a person is desperate to achieve his own selfishness, it turns out to be so terrible.

How can you say that Gao Changgong is also a member of the Gao family and his own relatives.

Why is he like this today......

"Since the battle of Bishan in my year, His Majesty has been separated from me, and it is only a matter of time before he wants to deal with me, and I have been trying to find a way to restrain the Northern Zhou in the past few years, so the Northern Zhou has not dared to invade our country since the Battle of Bishan, but ...... But I still neglected to let them unite with the enemy to do such things, and many people in Tin City have been persecuted. ”

"Your Highness, don't blame yourself, aren't we here? Let's figure out a way together, and there must be a way...... As long as the persecution of the men in the city can be stopped, it is necessary to find out what the way those women are......"

Before Gu Zimo finished speaking, Gao Changgong reached out and held his hand, "No matter what happens, don't leave my sight, let alone let go of my hand, this city is very dangerous now, especially for men who don't know martial arts." ”

Gu Zimo held Gao Changgong's hand back, "Your Highness, don't worry, I will hold your hand firmly." ”

Not long after the two of them walked out, a figure in the shadows disappeared in the darkness.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Gu Zimo noticed that Gao Changgong's pace was slightly hurried, and asked in a low voice.

"It's okay." Gao Changgong shook his head, the person who was watching them in the dark seemed to have left, "Let's go, the market in front is still very lively, I will see what I want to buy later, tell me." ”

"But we're not here to ......"

"There's still a lot of time, don't rush for a while, today, let's go shopping first."

Gu Zimo breathed a sigh of relief, "Hmm." ”

The two arrived at the busiest neighborhood of the bazaar.

Gu Zimo saw a booth of candy men, and one of the sugar figures was particularly lifelike.

"Temple ......"

"What do you call me?"

Gao Changgong's words reminded Gu Zimo that it was indeed inappropriate to call His Royal Highness on this occasion, and he hurriedly changed his words, "Brother......"

Gao Changgong was slightly stunned when he heard this, but his mood suddenly improved.

"Hmm."

"That, brother, I want to buy this candy man...... You've brought the silver, haven't you? Gu Zimo really thinks that the sugar man is very good-looking, and he feels very similar to Gao Changgong.

Gao Changgong took out the silver and handed it to Gu Zimo, Gu Zimo hurriedly took the silver, "Sister-in-law, I want this sugar man." ”

"Childe has a good eye, this sugar man is the best seller......"

"This sugar man looks a little familiar, sister-in-law, dare to ask who this pinching is?"

"This, but my hero of Northern Qi, the god of war Lanling King, just regrets not being able to see the King of Lanling himself, so I can only pinch it according to the portrait ......"

"You can pinch it so much according to the portrait, sister-in-law, your craftsmanship is really good, the king of Lanling and the one I have seen, exactly the same as this sugar man......"

"Really? It turns out that Childe and King Lanling know each other, so this sugar man will be given to Childe......"

"How good is that...... The money still has to be given......"

"His Royal Highness the King of Lanling has killed countless enemies for the people of the world, we all love him, he is our hero, son, since you know His Royal Highness the King of Lanling, this sugar man, I really can't take your money, take it......"

Gu Zimo still wanted to persuade the sister-in-law, but Gao Changgong pulled her sleeves, "Since she is kind, you can accept it." ”

"Childe, take it......"

"Okay then, thank you, sister-in-law."

After taking the sugar man, Gu Zimole couldn't close his mouth, but he felt embarrassed for a while, "It's like I'm taking advantage, eh...... But this sugar man really looks like you......"

"So, you bought this candy man that looks exactly like me because you wanted to eat me?"

Gu Zimo couldn't see Gao Changgong's face under his cloak, but with Gao Changgong's tone, he could guess that he must be laughing.

"I'll just eat you, what? If you don't accept it, you don't accept it, let your sister-in-law pinch me to eat! ”

Gu Zimo said, stuffed the sugar man into the cloak and took a bite, "Wow, it's so sweet, it's delicious!" ”

Gao Changgong shook his head helplessly, "It's really a child who hasn't grown up." ”

"Your Highness, what is that?"

For the first time, Gu Zimo saw two villains with various movements like shadows, and someone was there to explain.

"That's a shadow puppet show, and the Han Dynasty has had it."

"Wow, this is a shadow puppet show, huh? I know, I have heard about the origin of shadow puppetry, according to legend, the Han Emperor Wu Emperor Liu Che's beloved concubine Mrs. Li died of illness, Emperor Wu missed his heart in a trance, ignoring the government all day long, the minister Li Shaoweng went out one day, and met children playing with rag dolls on the road, and the shadows were reflected in the ground vividly. Li Shaoweng's heart moved, cut the image of Mrs. Li with cotton silk, painted it with color, and installed wooden poles on his hands and feet, surrounded the square curtain at night, put up lamps and candles, and respectfully invited the emperor to sit in the tent and watch, Emperor Wu looked at Longyan Dayue, and couldn't put it down...... Since then, shadow puppetry has been passed down all over the world......"

"Well, even so, many of my Northern Qi skills have been lost, but now, only this tin city has shadow puppets to watch."

Gao Changgong's words suddenly made Gu Zimo's heart heavy.

If the city falls, then ...... Not to mention that shadow puppetry will be lost, it is these innocent people who suffer after all......

Although Gu Zimo's heart is not so big, it is about the life and death of the people, but when I think of it, the kind-hearted sister-in-law of the candy seller and the old man who performed the shadow puppet show, if they all suffer from the war...... As soon as he thought of this, Gu Zimo was about to lose his breath.

"Your Highness, we must not let the thieves succeed! Be sure to stop them! ”

Gu Zimo is unprecedentedly determined, even if he gambles everything, he must stop it.

Coming back from outside, Gu Zimo took a bath, and after lying down, he fell asleep.

Gao Changgong waited for Gu Zimo to fall asleep before getting out of bed and walking out.

Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Dongming have been waiting for a long time.

"Your Highness......"

"Did you find anything?"

"Your Royal Highness, as you expected, the man in black did pass the letter to the Prime Minister's Mansion, this time the danger of Xicheng is definitely in the hands of the Prime Minister, the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, this time I am afraid it will be ......"

"It's okay, continue to send people to pay attention to their every move, and in addition, give you and Dongming a task."

"What does Your Highness mean?"

……

After Gao Changgong left, Dongming looked at Su Zhe and glanced up and down at Su Zhe, "Are you sure you want to carry out this task?" I don't think you're more suitable than me, otherwise, I'd better come forward and tell Your Highness, I'll come. ”

"Senior brother, what are you trying to do? It's rare to have such a good task, but my senior brother wants to fight with me, I'm afraid it's not kind! ”

Su Zhe glanced at Dongming helplessly, and went to the wing.

Dong Ming hurriedly followed his heels in, and saw that Su Zhe was about to take off his clothes, so he had to turn his back, "Your martial arts are not as high as mine, I'm just worried that you will mess things up, this matter is related to the entire Xicheng ......"

"But His Royal Highness has agreed, saying that His Highness also thinks that I am more suitable than you for this mission, senior brother, I know that such a good errand falls on my head, you must be envious in your heart, rest assured, next time there is such a good errand, I will not fight with you, so, this time, you don't rob me."

After Su Zhe changed his clothes, he pushed Dong Ming, "What are you doing, senior brother, let's see how I am dressed?" Like a weak scholar who doesn't have the power to tie a chicken? ”

“……”

As soon as Dongming turned around, he saw that Su Zhe was actually dressed revealingly, his chest was half open, and he could almost see his chest rising and falling slightly with his breath.

"You...... You ......"

"Since Your Highness has entrusted me with the task, in order to be sure, I think it is okay to sacrifice a little hue appropriately. Besides, I still have confidence in my figure......"

Before he finished speaking, Dongming reached out rudely and pulled Su Zhe's collar up.

"What are you doing, brother...... Don't crumple my clothes......"

"You don't have a brain! Your Highness let you carry out the mission, and didn't let you turn yourself into such a ghost! ”

Su Zhe slapped Dongming away, a little helpless about Dongming's behavior, "Senior brother, are you jealous of me!" ”

"I'm jealous of you?" Dongming didn't know what Su and Zhejiang thought.

"Senior brother, if you're either jealous of me, or you can't trust me? What do you think of me as Su Zhe? I swore in front of my grandfather that before I destroyed the Northern Zhou, I would never talk about the personal affairs of my children, as for this mission, it was just a mission, so the appropriate sacrifice was nothing, as long as the task could be completed......"

After Su Zhe finished speaking, he found that there was no movement, and when he turned around, he found that Dongming had disappeared.

"Senior brother?"
