Chapter 138: Courage

Gu Huai's eyes turned cold: "How could Your Majesty know about me?" ”

"It may be a trivial matter in the clan, but as long as someone wants to check, he can always find out."

The water on the small stove was boiling, Pei Xi held his wrist in his right hand, pressed his left hand weakly, and passed the tea leaves through the water for the first time: "Jinyiwei, Zhongshan Wangfu, King Yan, Fang Xiaoru, everything is at a glance, do you think Your Majesty will notice you?" ”

Gu Huai frowned: "Knowing that I don't mean I want to see me, my only identity in the official face is just a student, and there are Jinyi Wei..."

He suddenly thought of something: "Did you do it?" ”

For such a thing as making tea, the sleeves of Yuebai's Taoist uniform are easily stained with water stains, but Pei Xi's movements are freehand, and he hasn't been stained with any dust, and his face shows some appreciation: "Smart." ”

"The Gu clan has done a good job in this matter, I saw half of it, and I knew that I could let you do it, but your heart is not ruthless enough after all, this is a good thing and a bad thing."

The second time the water passed slowly, and the aftertaste of the tea was slowly emanating at this time: "The reason why Jinyiwei is Jinyiwei, not just a dispensable official yamen, there are some things you still have to learn, these days you stay in Jinling, Dongliang will take you to see Nanzhen and Beizhen." ”

Gu Huai's brows furrowed even deeper: "Why?" ”

There are a lot of questions, why did you pull yourself into Jinyiwei, but now you don't let yourself do anything? Why didn't he spare any effort to use Jinyiwei's resources to help him settle this matter, but he didn't care about being seen by Fang Xiaoru and the imperial court? Why do you want to use this almost cultivated tone to teach yourself to do things, and you want to take a good look at Jinyiwei?

Most importantly, why do you want to push yourself onto the table and even go to see Zhu Yunwen?

Pei Xi obviously knew what Gu Huai was asking, but he didn't answer, just pushed a cup of tea to the table and motioned for Gu Huai to sit down.

"Whatever Your Majesty asks, you can answer, it doesn't matter if you don't know, Your Majesty only listens to what you want to hear."

"There are five days left on the death day of the first emperor, and the Jinyi guard will assassinate the third son of King Yan, you will take the lead in this matter."

"After the assassination, there will be four fast horses outside the city, a road map in the saddle, and a few names that you will use."

Three sentences, just after drinking a cup of tea, Pei Xi's eyebrows and eyes were a little tired, and he waved his hand to block many of Gu Huai's questions.

"Drink and leave, don't ask."

After a moment of silence, footsteps sounded, and the green shirt walked out of the door, leaving only the sun shining.

The tea in his hand is a little cold, and it no longer tastes the best, Pei Xi took a sip lightly, it was a little bitter, for these best teas, if you miss the time, it will really be a catastrophe.

It's the same with people.

Pei Xi lovingly admired the brocade-clothed companion driving out of the tour, and after a long time, he stretched out his hand to put it away.

"Betting on both ends is destined to end badly, but there is also a benefit."

Pei Xi sighed softly: "That is, you won't lose." ”

……

Gu Huai, who walked out of the Jinyi Health Office, only felt that there were stormy waves in his heart, as if he was in the torrential rain and wind in the depths of the sea, and he could only look helplessly at the thunder among the dark clouds, unable to distinguish between the southeast and the northwest.

Pei Xi's words were not finished, but the meaning Gu Huai understood seven or eight points.

Of course, if he wasn't the one who pushed Zhu Di to rebel, he wasn't the one who knew where history would go next, and he would never guess what Pei Xi was going to do...

It's horrible.

Once some things start, it is easy to figure it out, and the meaning of those three sentences is easy for Gu Huai to guess.

What does Joo want to know? I want to know if the Qianhu Gu Huai in King Yan's mouth has the same loyalty to the imperial court, and is as loyal as Shi Gecheng, the head of King Yan's mansion.

What does he want to hear? King Yan is pretending to be sick, King Yan has objections, it is right to cut the domain, and the governance views and plans of Fang Xiaoru and the three of them are right.

Why did you assassinate King Yan's three sons? The reason Pei Xi didn't say, but Gu Huai could guess some, either it was the plan of the three smart people in the court, or Pei Xi made his own opinion.

Or maybe it's both.

The only difference is that those three smart people may want King Yan's three sons to die, but Pei Xi doesn't want to.

So there are four fast horses outside the city, as well as the arrangement of Jinyiwei on the road to the north.

These things won't be planned in advance... When Pei Xi first found Gu Huai, it was impossible to bury such a long thread, these thoughts should have been generated recently.

What kind of courage is that?

Gu Huai, who walked to the mouth of the alley, had not yet come back to his senses, Wei Laosan had already come up, Gu Huai glanced at Dong Liangcai, and he walked away with interest.

"You go back to Qing'an Town, dismiss the subordinates at home, pack up your luggage, and let the stinger prepare the convoy, and the county lord will immediately go north with the convoy," Gu Huai's tone was a little dignified, "Without further ado, I'll leave today!" ”

Wei Laosan was a little puzzled: "Then the chief officer, you..."

"I have to delay for a while, after you finish delivering the letter, you will go outside the city to look for the stinger, and when the turmoil is over, I will return to Beiping."

Gu Huai rubbed his eyebrows: "I just hope that everything is still in time..."

Seeing Gu Huai so serious, Wei Laosan didn't dare to ask again, and after agreeing, he hurriedly walked out of the alley and blended into the crowd, Gu Huai stood with his hands in his hands and watched him disappear at the end of the long street, without saying a word for a long time.

It's too rushed... Variables come too fast, and some things are too late to prepare, but the world is like this, and no one can guarantee that they have taken the lead.

At the moment, there are only two choices, believe in Pei Xi, or don't believe in Pei Xi, Gu Huai can bet on himself, and even Zhu Gaochi and the three of them can also bet, but Tsundere Lori can't.

After getting along for such a long time, Tsundere Lori is what it is to herself, Gu Huai can't say clearly, but from the feeling that she is more like a younger sister.

Some things are too cruel for her... If she could, Gu Huai hoped that she would always be the innocent she was now.

I always felt that the trip to the south was too smooth, so smooth that the ideological preparations made in Beiping were a little in vain, but now Gu Huai knows that this trip to Jinling will definitely not be easy.

One is not good, he and Zhu Gaochi have to die in Jinling.

Dong Liangcai came up again: "Ouch, your face is so ugly? What did the commander say to scare you like this? ”

Gu Huai retracted his gaze and said with a smile: "If you want to enter the palace to face the saint, isn't it normal to be a little nervous?" ”

"It's true... Except for the commander, I don't know how long it has been since anyone has entered the palace, tsk, I didn't expect to be caught up by you this first time. ”

Gu Huai walked forward: "You want to go back to Beiping with me?" ”

"Of course."

How could there be only four fast horses outside the city?

Gu Huai turned his head and looked meaningful: "Have you offended anyone recently?" ”
