Chapter 53: The Mystery of Origin
Lu Qian took a step forward and said in a low voice, "You help us take down the Eight Cities of Yanyun, and I will help you except Zhou Linyuan!" And promise, don't fight!"
"Presumptuous, our negotiation here this time is to rescue the Prince of Great Zhou, and you even threaten to kill him!" Li Xianzong's face sank and he said sharply.
"Hmph, it seems that Li Youxiang still doesn't trust us. Well, let's not talk about it. We've taken the risk of saying what we need to say and what we shouldn't say."
"There are four days left, and the Huo family's army will arrive at that time. We'll be gone in three days. If you let Huo Xiaolin come, you won't have to talk about it at all."
After Lu Qian finished speaking, he gave up his hand and left without looking back.
The fourth prince, Zhou Hongye, couldn't help but want to scream, but was stopped by Li Xianzong.
...
"Will they believe us?" After Xia Wenzhi saw them leaving, he asked Lu Qian.
Lu Qian smiled and said, "Don't worry... The reason why I dare to say this is because I am sure that the whole country does not want to fight!"
Zhou Shuran was a little puzzled.
Lu Qian explained, "They arrived nearly a cup of tea in advance for this meeting, and he waited half an hour late for us. That means they want to negotiate."
"Just now, I told us our hole cards. They weren't too surprised, it was clear that eight cities were within their reach. Moreover, Lee Hsien Chung just asked what we could give them."
"Obviously, they're going to check what I said now. Only, they are sure that what I say is true! Once confirmed, I will say yes. So, we just have to wait!"
Seeing that Lu Qian's analysis was the head, everyone couldn't help but show a look of admiration...
...
After the Great Zhou envoys left.
"Li Xiang, why don't you agree! I think what Lu Qian said is sincere! You also know the situation in the DPRK and China... Once we let Zhou Linyuan return to Da Zhou, it will be difficult for us to get rid of him."
"Fourth Highness, I naturally know! However, don't look at that Lu Qian's age, but he gives me a very unsimple feeling. I need to get to the bottom of what he said!"
"If we can really exchange eight cities for the stability of our Great Zhou Dynasty! It's worth it! And it can also make them fight in Great Xia, if Xia Wenzhi is really the prince, Huo Xiaolin will definitely not do it! When the time comes, while they are in civil strife, we can take back only eight cities with a raised hand." Li Xianzong's face showed a hint of ruthlessness.
"Lee Sang! It's a clever calculation, why didn't I think of this layer." Zhou Hongye said a lot.
...
After Lu Qian and everyone finished analyzing, they were also a little tired from looking at everyone.
Let's go and rest first.
As soon as I got back to my room, I heard a knock on the door.
Lu Qian thought to himself, and Zhou Shuran teased her all the way.
I didn't expect to be so quick to be unbearable!
"My little girl... You're justโ"
As soon as they pushed them away, Lu Qian's words came to his lips and he swallowed them.
"City Lord Fang, why are you here?"
Fang Daorong, who looked at the door like a ball, asked.
Fang Daorong smiled, shook the wine in his hand and a bag of oiled paper, "Mr. Lu, let's have some drinks together."
Obviously, Fang Daorong had something to say.
Lu Qian let him into the house.
After Fang Daorong opened it, it was a bag of beef.
This is indeed a good thing.
"City Lord Fang, there must be something to do when you look for me." Lu Qian was not polite, reached out and took a piece of beef and put it in his mouth and said.
Fang Daorong's eagle-like eyes stared at Lu Qian and asked, "Brother Lu, you really don't know me?"
Lu Qian knew that Fang Daorong was a criminal investigator, and he didn't intend to lie to him.
I have already thought of a way to deal with it.
"City Lord Fang, I'm really embarrassed! Two months ago, I hurt my head... So, there are some people and things before that I can't remember... The doctor diagnosed it as amnesia." land
Qian said.
Fang Daorong's eyes looked at Lu Qian repeatedly and said, "I see... Brother Lu, everything is fine in the palace."
Lu Qian nodded and replied, "City Lord Fang, it's okay... It's when I often think about the past, but I don't know it. I have a lot of headaches."
As he spoke, he wondered if he could ask him about the identity of the original owner
He continued to ask, "I don't know, does City Lord Fang know about my past? You said that before I entered the palace, it would be convenient for me to get acquainted... I don't know, what did I do before entering the palace? What does the family do? Why did you enter the palace?"
Fang Daorong's face was stunned by Lu Qian's question.
After thinking for a while, Cai Chan replied with a smile, "I really don't know about this, there was a thief who stole my things, and you saw that the road was uneven. We just met. But then, you haven't heard from you..."
Obviously, he didn't tell the truth.
Looking at him yesterday, it was obvious that he was familiar with him.
Lu Qian also showed a look of disappointment on his face, and did not ask.
After Fang Daorong learned that Lu Qian had amnesia, he seemed to be lacking in interest, chatted a few words, and left.
Fang Daorong walked for a while.
Zhou Shuran came over and saw that the door of the house was open.
And Lu Qian was in a daze at the beef on the table, stepped forward and patted him and asked, "Hey, what do you want?"
Lu Qian was taken aback.
For Zhou Shuran, he didn't hide it, and told him what happened just now.
It's just that he said that his crossing was amnesia.
"Then you mean to say that you have forgotten yourself, how did you enter the palace? And your past..."Zhou Shuran looked at Lu Qian with a little suspicion and asked.
Lu Qian smiled awkwardly and nodded.
Zhou Shuran looked at him suspiciously and said, "You're kidding me."
Lu Qian shook his head helplessly.
Zhou Shuran saw that Lu Qian seemed to be quite sincere, so he spoke
"Actually, when I saw Concubine Li bring you to Jingxin Garden before, I was quite confused! Because in the palace, the identity of eunuchs is very strict. From entering the palace, purifying, and then assigning, it is necessary to verify the right body. It's almost impossible to sneak in with a fake eunuch..."
"Then you can just buy off those eunuchs." Lu Qian asked.
Zhou Shuran listened to Lu Qian's words and said with a smile, "It's not that simple. Not to mention that this is a big crime of killing the head, no eunuch is willing to do it. Even if you can bid for money, buy all the eunuchs. You can't buy off the chief steward next to Your Majesty, Grandpa Gao! Because all eunuchs have to go through the hands of the chief steward in the end, and Grandpa Gao is the person Xia Jiuyuan trusts the most."
"Then the problem is, I went to Liyang Palace..." Lu Qian said with a bitter smile.
Zhou Shuran nodded and said, "That's right, I found someone to investigate you!" What I didn't think about was that your deed had the private stamp of Gao's father-in-law! In other words, Gonggong Gao must know that you are a fake eunuch!"
"When I decided to dedicate myself to you, it was because of Grandpa Gao's private poke that I concluded that you were not as simple as Concubine Li's male pet!" Zhou Shuran said with a straight face.
