Chapter 16: The Cunning of the Little Man

"I've seen the lieutenant. ”

"Hmm. ”

"See Lieutenant. ”

"Hmm. ”

Guo Qu returned to the mansion, and there seemed to be no difference from usual, but his expression seemed to be a little heavier.

Thinking of what happened not long ago, the people in the mansion felt that they knew the reason, so they did things more carefully one by one, trying not to attract Guo Qu's attention.

"Master, you're back, do you want to eat?"

A middle-aged man greeted him. There was a hint of respect in the words.

Guo Qu waved his hand: "No need, how can I be in the mood to eat now!"

"Master, you don't have to worry so much, Ting Weizheng's move is more like deterring Chen Xiang, sir, you are just incidental. ”

Although he knew that Steward Wang was comforting himself, Guo Qu felt even more depressed.

"Steward King, go find the sorcerers and bring them to the house. ”

"Didn't the master say before that these sorcerers had suspicious origins, and that there was a contradiction between their words and deeds, and that they must have ulterior motives, so let's keep our distance and hang them?

Faced with Steward Wang's doubts, Guo Qu glanced at him and walked into the study first.

Steward Wang followed behind Guo Qu, he saw that Guo Qu's expression was serious, and his appearance was as usual, but he was nervous in his heart, thinking that he had received the wealth of those witches and exposed it.

Closing the door of the study, Wang Guan asked calmly, "Master, has something happened?"

In the face of his henchman, Guo Qu didn't have much defense, but he also knew that it was easy to fail if he didn't plan secretly.

"It's not a big deal, I went to the palace just now, and I knew that the king was going to find a few witches to preside over a blessing sacrifice, so I recommended them to the king, you go and find them, and I will bring them into the palace later. ”

Steward Wang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and a heartfelt smile appeared on his face: "This move is really wonderful, King Qin is the third son of the Son of Heaven, maybe he will inherit the treasure one day, the lord is now befriending him, it is really a wise move, even if it doesn't work, there is no loss." ”

Steward Wang's words were like a thunderbolt piercing Guo Qu's mind.

That's right, King Qin is both civil and military, his ability is not bad, and he is broad-minded, although the forces around him are weak now, but when today's son has a strong desire for power, this is a little bit, so it seems that the probability of King Qin inheriting the throne is still very large.

Coupled with the incident a while ago, the prestige of the other two princes was greatly damaged, and King Qin's hope was a little greater.

If I had chosen to stand by King Qin when he was still weak, and when King Qin had succeeded to the throne, wouldn't I have the power to become a dragon?

I didn't think of it before!

Guo Qu couldn't help but feel a little agitated in his chest, he was born as a martial artist, experienced in a hundred battles, and how many times he almost died before he climbed to his current position, but with his background, unless he made a monstrous achievement, this position is his limit now.

But if he follows the right person, then he will definitely be able to go further, get a position as a Jiuqing, or a general, and maybe he can also be a marquis, and the glory of the sect.

The most important thing now is to do the things at hand, if you can't even do this thing, even if you take refuge in King Qin, you may not be taken seriously.

"Go ahead, have a better attitude. ”

"No. ”

Steward Wang drove out of the Lieutenant's Mansion and soon arrived at a middle school called Huaili in the north of the city.

Rino was the administrative district of the foundation of the Daewoo Empire, which was equivalent to a district within a village or city.

At the inner gate, the inner prison door recognized the steward king, who had been coming often, and respectfully invited the steward to enter the inner gate.

The king's steward walked through the middle of the house, and at last the carriage stopped in front of an ordinary house.

After getting out of the car, Steward Wang stepped forward and knocked on the door.

It didn't take long for the sound of footsteps to get closer. With a creak, the door opened.

The door was opened by a man dressed in a brown close-fitting short, a man in his mid-thirties, with a majestic figure, bare arms and muscles, and a beard on his face.

As soon as he saw Steward Wang, a smile appeared on his face: "It turns out that Steward Wang has arrived, please come in quickly, our brothers have already prepared wine and food, and are waiting for you to come." ”

"You're welcome, I'm here for an important matter. ”

Steward Wang walked into the courtyard as usual.

The man glanced at both sides of the door, then closed the door and asked, "I don't know what happened?"

"What you have entrusted me with has been done. "Yiyun Chinese

"Really?"

The man's voice rose sharply, obviously surprised.

Steward Wang looked at the man with a smile, enjoying the man's admiration for him.

"Am I going to lie about such a thing?"

"Steward Wang is here, and he is not welcome. ”

A black-robed man in his fifties walked out of the house with two people on his slightly old face with a smile.

"Zhang Jun is still so polite, our relationship is so close, where do you still use this set. ”

"It's the old man who is not free enough. ”

Zhang Jia smiled and took the mistake on himself, and then asked, "Third brother, what surprised you so much just now?"

"Big brother, Steward Wang has done the matter well. ”

"Oh, that's really thankful for Steward Wang, Second Brother, you go and get some carriage and horse expenses for Steward Wang, Steward Wang must work hard to run back and forth, and we naturally can't help but express it. ”

"No. ”

A man behind Zhang Jia answered, and then walked back into the house.

The smile on Steward Wang's face was even stronger, but he said: "It's just a gesture, why worry about it." ”

Zhang Yuan naturally did not take the words of the king seriously, no matter what the truth was, the matter of recommending them to the Qin Palace, it was in vain that they spent a lot of money on Zhang Yuan.

"Steward Wang, please, it's been hard all the way, so let's rest for a while. ”

The four of them sat down in the hall.

Zhang Jia asked, "Steward Wang, I don't know how you recommended us?"

"King Qin is going to hold a blessing sacrifice in the near future, but there are no witches in the palace of King Qin, so he wants to find a few witches in the people to preside over the sacrifice. ”

"When I heard the news, I went to the lieutenant and recommended you to the lieutenant, and the lieutenant knew what you were capable of, so he readily agreed, and then recommended you to the king. ”

"I'm here this time to take you to see the lieutenant, and the lieutenant will lead you into the palace of King Qin. ”

"Remember, the palace is no better than the outside, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, don't collide with the nobles in the palace. ”

"I'll understand, steward Wang, a little thanks, please be sure to accept it. ”

Zhang Jia took a wooden tray from the second brother's hand and handed it to Steward Wang.

"How can this work, doesn't Zhang Junmo look down on me?"

Steward Wang's eyes lit up as he stared at the golden cake on the tray, but his mouth was still prevaricating.

"How so, it's because I respect you that I can't let you suffer in vain, right?"

The two excused each other, and then the king accepted the golden cake with joy.

"It's better to do it sooner rather than later, the lieutenant is still waiting for you, why don't you go back to the lieutenant's mansion with me now?"

Now that the money has arrived, Steward Wang doesn't want to stay here any longer.

Zhang Jian hurriedly agreed: "Okay, you can't let the lieutenant wait for a long time, Steward Wang will wait for a while, and our brother will change his clothes and tidy up his appearance." ”

"Go, go. ”

The four of them came to the inner hall, the other three went to change their clothes, and Zhang Jia came to a room in the backyard.

"Protector of the Dharma, subordinates have important things to report. ”

After explaining the cause and effect of the incident, Zhang Jia said: "This is a great opportunity, if we die unfortunately, please take care of our family members." ”

The black-robed masked man was shrouded in darkness, and he said in a deep voice: "You can go without worry, I will take care of your family, and they will live a good life." ”

"Then I'll wait. ”

After removing the last trace of worries, he knew that what was waiting for him and others was very likely death, but Zhang Jia did not have a trace of fear, there was only firmness and hope in his eyes.

"Well, go ahead, and if you can, you should take care of your own families. ”

Zhang Jia's figure froze as he walked out, and then he continued to walk out.
