Text Chapter 388 Fake Seal
After returning to King Wu's mansion, He Nuanliang and Gu Zhiheng looked at the prince's seal in front of them, and He Nuanliang asked with some excitement: "Your Highness, now that this prince's seal has arrived, what should we do next?" ”
Gu Zhiheng already had a plan in his heart, and when he heard He Nuanliang ask like this, he said to her with some ridicule: "Nuanliang, weren't you very shrewd in the past, but now you can't think of a countermeasure to these things?" ”
He Nuanliang heard the ridicule in Gu Zhiheng's tone, but asked very obediently: "The concubine really doesn't know, please make it clear to Your Highness." ”
Gu Zhiheng stopped selling Guan Zi, and said to He Nuanliang: "Naturally, I want to find a master of carving, imitate an identical seal, and keep it for Shen Huo to surprise when it is useful in the future." ”
He Nuanliang asked with some doubts: "Then do we want to leave the real one behind, or leave the fake one behind?" ”
Gu Zhiheng finally saw the not-so-shrewd appearance, and was very interested in her appearance at the moment, smiled slightly, and said, "Nuan Liang, since you are so smart, you can guess." ”
He Nuanliang sat there and hesitated for a long time, if they said that they left the real one, if Shen Huo found that the mark around him was fake, he would naturally take precautions, but they left the fake one, if there was really any mark on it, it would ruin their plan again, and after struggling for a long time, He Nuanliang still didn't figure it out.
Anyway, Gu Zhiheng is also her husband, even if he really submits softly in front of him, it is not a shameful thing, so He Nuanliang said softly: "Your Highness, just say it directly, the concubine is stupid, I really can't guess." ”
Gu Zhiheng laughed and said, "I can't tell Nuan Liang about this matter for the time being, and leave it as a suspense, you will know when the time comes." ”
He Nuanliang no longer insisted on knowing, she thought of Gu Zhiheng just now saying that she wanted to find a carving master to imitate an identical seal, so she asked: "Your Highness, for the person who carves the seal, I don't know if you have chosen it?" ”
There is nothing to hide from this. Gu Zhiheng said directly: "I have already chosen, he is the boss of a shop surnamed Li in the south of the city, his craftsmanship is well-known in Kyoto, and even if it can't be imitated, it can be eight or nine points similar." ”
He Nuanliang's reputation of Boss Li has also heard of it, so when she heard Gu Zhiheng say this, she also echoed and said: "Your Highness really knows how to choose people, this Boss Li's reputation is also heard by a deep lady of mine." ”
Gu Zhiheng knew that He Nuanliang's words were deliberately praising himself, but he was still a little satisfied in his heart, but at the moment, it was more important to imitate the seal first, so Gu Zhiheng said to He Nuanliang: "Nuanliang, we haven't been in the house for a while, you go down to take care of it, although I also think that people don't dare to slack off, but in the end I still don't feel at ease." ”
He Nuanliang knew that Gu Zhiheng wanted to support himself, but Gu Zhiheng didn't want to interfere with the matter, and he couldn't participate in it compulsorily, so he was very obedient and said, "Your Highness, the concubine will retire." ”
After Gu Zhiheng answered, he turned around and walked outside the house, just because they were going to discuss the seal in the house, those little maids and attendants did not follow in, after He Nuanliang went out, the little maid who was waiting outside the door saluted He Nuanliang and left behind He Nuanliang.
After He Nuanliang left, Gu Zhiheng clapped his hands, and a figure with almost no sense of existence walked out of the shadows, Gu Zhiheng instructed: "You heard what I said to the princess just now, go and bring Boss Li in the south of the city." ”
The figure bowed to Gu Zhiheng, and disappeared again without saying a word.
However, in a quarter of an hour, the figure that disappeared just now carried a comatose person into the Wu Wangfu, and the distance between the Wu Wangfu and the south of the city was not close, so it can be seen that the figure was really not simple.
Gu Zhiheng looked at the unconscious Boss Li and beckoned, and the figure threw Boss Li to the ground, turned around and walked out, and when he came in again, he had a basin of water in his hand and splashed it directly on Boss Li's face.
Boss Li was stimulated by the cold water, and soon woke up, looking at the scene in front of him, he still didn't react.
Gu Zhiheng saw Boss Li's appearance, his tone was a little calm, and he said with a hint of threat: "Boss Li, I asked you to come over this time, because I have something to bother you, and my subordinates are a little ignorant, please don't be surprised by Boss Li." ”
Boss Li is you know Gu Zhiheng's identity, and when he heard Gu Zhiheng say this, he immediately asked respectfully: "Your Royal Highness King Wu, if you need the villain to talk about anything, what kind of trouble do you talk about, the villain can't afford His Royal Highness to say this." ”
Even if Boss Li was dissatisfied with Gu Zhiheng's behavior at this time, the other party was King Wu after all, and as the owner of a small shop, he naturally couldn't fight against the other party, so he could only make such a humble appearance.
Gu Zhiheng knew that Boss Li's heart might not be as good as it appeared on the surface, but he also knew that Boss Li was in awe of his identity, so he said directly: "This king has a seal in his hand, and I hope that Boss Li will help this king imitate an identical piece, and after the matter is completed, this king will be rewarded." ”
Boss Li listened to Gu Zhiheng's words, and cold sweat was about to drip on his forehead, how could this King Wu speak so unreliable, how could he reverse two identical seals, although it was hindered by Gu Zhiheng's identity as King Wu, he still opened his mouth and said: "His Royal Highness King Wu, this, it is really impossible to imitate two identical seals like this, please don't embarrass the grass people." ”
Gu Zhiheng actually knew that it was impossible to make two identical seals, and he said that before, but he had to put psychological pressure on Boss Li first, and when he heard Boss Li say this, he thought about it for a while, and then asked: "If you imitate the boss there, how similar can you be?" ”
Hearing Gu Zhiheng ask like this, Boss Li replied quite confidently: "His Royal Highness King Wu, if the grass people have enough time, although the resemblance is unattainable, there is still no problem in the slightest." ”
Gu Zhiheng was waiting for Boss Li's words, so after Boss Li finished speaking, Gu Zhiheng said directly: "Then you can imitate that seal to eight or nine out of ten, so it should be okay, right?" ”
Boss Li hurriedly nodded and said, "No problem, no problem, then please ask His Royal Highness King Wu to let the grass people take a look at the seal." ”
Gu Zhiheng waved his hand, and the figure next to him, who had no sense of existence, took out the seal from the back room and handed it directly to Boss Li under Gu Zhiheng's signal.
As soon as Boss Li saw this seal, he immediately felt that he was in trouble, this is clearly the seal for the prince, why is it in the hands of King Wu, if he imitates this seal, I am afraid that he will die soon, but if he does not imitate, he is afraid that he will not even be able to go out of the door of the Wu Palace, after some thought, Boss Li still took the seal, and promised to imitate another jade seal within three days.
Gu Zhiheng got Boss Li's promise, and asked, "Does the boss there want to start in King Wu's mansion, or go back to the shop in the south of the city?" ”
Boss Li's original intention was to go back to his shop, but he also knew that this matter was very important, and it was impossible for King Wu to leave King Wu's mansion with the seal, so he said to Gu Zhiheng: "His Royal Highness King Wu, if it is convenient, please let the grass people stay in King Wu's mansion, so that there will be no accidents after the carving is completed." ”
Gu Zhiheng was not surprised that Boss Li recognized this jade seal, after all, his reputation was destined to be not too shallow, and Boss Li's answer was also very much in line with his heart, so he didn't think much about it, and ordered someone to arrange a quiet residence for Boss Li.
Three days passed quickly, and in the early morning of the third day, Boss Li asked the people who were staring at him to return to Gu Zhiheng, and the seal was carved.
Gu Zhiheng immediately asked someone to bring Boss Li to see him, and after Boss Li's imitation seal was handed over to Gu Zhiheng, Gu Zhiheng took the two seals and compared them, and then looked at Boss Li a little uncomfortably and asked, "Which of these two seals is real?" ”
Boss Li heard Gu Zhiheng's question and hurriedly replied, "Back to His Royal Highness King Wu, the seal in your left hand is real." ”
Gu Zhiheng once again sighed in his heart that Boss Li's skills were so exquisite, he could be so real, if Boss Li could use it wholeheartedly for him, it would be a big help.
Boss Li naturally didn't know what Gu Zhiheng was thinking, he just looked at Gu Zhiheng and asked, "His Royal Highness King Wu, the things you ordered have been completed, can you go back now?" ”
Gu Zhiheng asked his subordinates to go to the housekeeper to take a hundred taels of silver, handed it to Boss Li, and said to Boss Li with a threatening tone: "This is your reward this time, but this matter is very important, if it is leaked, you will understand the consequences." ”
Boss Li nodded again and again, and said, "The grass people have a bottom in their hearts about this matter, and His Royal Highness King Wu can rest assured." ”
Gu Zhiheng didn't want to embarrass Boss Li too much, so he let Boss Li go back.
After Boss Li left, Gu Zhiheng instructed the figure on the side again: "Find someone to keep an eye on him, and if there is anything unusual, return to the king immediately." ”
The figure nodded, and left silently.
Subsequently, Gu Zhiheng ordered another person to secretly put the seal back to the East Palace, but because Shen Huo did not use the seal often, he did not find the loss of the seal.
Sure enough, Gu Zhiheng's decision was right, and in less than a day, the person sent to keep an eye on Boss Li came back, knelt in front of Gu Zhiheng, and said to Gu Zhiheng: "Lord Wang, then Boss Li discussed with his son and wanted to enter the palace to report the matter." ”
Gu Zhiheng smiled coldly, and said to the kneeling person in front of him: "Intercept Boss Li on the way to the palace and dispose of him." With that, he turned and went into the inner room.
The man was instructed to stay on the way to the palace with Boss Li, and after Boss Li appeared in his sight, the man directly knocked Boss Li unconscious, dragged him into the grove on the side, and solved Boss Li after making sure that there was no one around.
