Chapter 108: Mrs. Tai's niece who made the deal
It's hard to get foggy on a summer morning in Kyoto, and the light mist of the morning surrounds the green mountains, and the smoke and water in the distance are level with the sandy shore.
It is rare to flood the thousands of miles of rivers on the banks of the Kyoto River, and even the houses near the river bank are faintly confused.
The clouds and mist in the early morning have not yet dissipated, and a fine rain of smoke and rain has fallen on the surface of the river.
But the scenery of Xiaoxiang is all for those literati and scholars, and the people who work hard at the grassroots level of society will only sigh that God is not beautiful, so that they cannot work normally.
Therefore, even though the vicinity of the river banks in Kyoto is already as beautiful as a fantasy land, today, there are almost very few fishermen who travel on the river to fish, or boatmen who entertain guests.
It is really in this mist and rain, a person wearing a green coat and a green bamboo hat on her head, rowing a small boat alone on the misty river, that person has no fishing gear on the boat, no guests, obviously not a fisherman, not a boatman, so what does this person do?
But the man paddled on the river for a long time, as if looking for something, until the clouds became thicker, and she got into a lonely canopy boat, and the moment she boarded the boat, it sailed towards the center of the river, leaving only one of the man's small boats adrift on the lake......
In the center of the river, the water mist gathered, and the rain was a little bigger than the surroundings, and the sound of the rain in the river was rustling through the canopy, and Gu Shu, who was in disguise, sat in the boat, listening to the sound of the sass.
"Miss Gu, it's Tai'an."
"Shizi is not a bad person, and I haven't done anything unpleasant, so I am naturally fearless." Gu Shu, who had dressed up in disguise, said with a light smile.
"It seems that Miss Gu's memory is not very good.
I remember, last time, I told you a long time ago, don't be smart in front of me, especially don't think about taking advantage of my sister, come to think of it, Miss Gu, I didn't take my words to heart. Qi Zhaoyang was still wearing a hat, hidden under the light veil, and said with a chuckle.
"The prince misunderstood, the little woman just wanted to discuss something, but the few letters written by the little woman to the prince were sent out, and they were lost......
So...... The little woman was really helpless, so she wanted to use the county lord to ask the prince to come out. ”
Seeing that after Gu Shu said this, Qi Zhaoyang did not react at all, Gu Shu hurriedly said very sincerely:
"Don't worry, what I promised you before, I definitely remember, now that the Xie family is criticized outside, I naturally won't really let the county lord come to the Xie family to find me, even if you don't ask me out in the end, I will decide not to let the county lord come to find me......"
Or maybe Gu Shu's very sincere words played a role, Qi Zhaoyang touched the piece of jade pendant on his waist after listening to Gu Shu's words, and said:
"Miss Gu just needs to remember her own words, and the rest of the things ...... It's not non-negotiable...... Miss Gu, please say, what is the important thing to find me out this time. ”
When Gu Shu heard this, she hesitated for a rare moment, and then dared to straighten her waist and say:
"I want to make a deal with the prince."
"What a deal."
"I want the prince to marry me."
"Huh...... Miss Gu is not confused, the matter of marriage should be decided by her parents, you look for me, but it is useless...... And why should I marry you......
Girl, you say it is better, she is the maiden niece of the Duchess of Yanguo, it is ugly, but she is a relative who came to fight the autumn breeze, and she is just an orphan girl with no one at home......
My father, King Yin, and His Majesty today are compatriots, with deep brotherhood and power......
Why...... Shall I marry you......
No, you want to marry into my Yinwang Mansion through my sister, that's ...... It's impossible, in this world, you are not the only one who is willing to befriend my sister and take good care of her......"
"I know that in this Kyoto, there are a lot of girls who are more prominent than me and have a noble character, and there are countless people who want to tie up with the county lord, like autumn rice......
But...... I can give him what he wants......"
"Miss Gu, isn't it a miracle that she can know what I want, if that's the case, I might as well send the girl to the clouds to watch it, and think about it...... The masters in the view must lack a talented apprentice like you, girl. Qi Zhaoyang said mockingly.
"The prince wants the Yin Wangfu to be stable for a hundred years, and the generations will be prosperous, and he wants his relatives at home to be stable for a lifetime, rich and glorious...... The prince also wants to ...... took over the army in the hands of Prince Yin, like his father...... Galloping on the battlefield......"
"Everyone in the world knows that the prince of Yin is weak, and if you think about it, Miss Gu's hexagram is really inaccurate......" Qi Zhaoyang's face hidden behind the light veil changed, and then he said in an indifferent tone as much as possible.
"If the prince is really weak and has no intention of military power, he wants to come...... It won't ...... Secretly contact the old ministry that fought the world with the saint back then...... For example, the champion Hou who has been in seclusion for many years and does not ask about the world is still ...... Uh......"
Before Gu Shu's words were finished, Qi Zhaoyang strangled his neck fiercely, unable to speak......
"Isn't the girl really having some special skills...... Or maybe there's someone next to me...... Premeditated...... Tut......
Girl...... Do you know...... Last time, I relied on this person who wanted to threaten the son of this world...... I have already fed the fish...... Unfortunately, it's really ...... The fish in this river ......"
As Qi Zhaoyang spoke, he grabbed Gu Shu to the bow of the boat, not giving Gu Shu a chance to fight back at all, and there was no rumored "weakness" at all......
Although Gu Shu had long suspected Qi Zhaoyang's "weakness", he had no choice but to die too early in his previous life, and he had only seen Qi Zhaoyang's tricks, but he had not seen it...... Qi Zhaoyang, who had faded from his weak appearance......
Therefore, Gu Shu was caught off guard by the sudden change......
Feel the air you can breathe getting thinner...... Gu Shu couldn't help but panic!
Gu Shu's ears were buzzing at this moment, and there was also a vague scene in front of him, Gu Shu was unwilling to die, so out of nowhere, he burst out of strength and grabbed Qi Zhaoyang's hand...... Give yourself a little respite, immediately! In order to completely escape from Qi Zhaoyang's claws, Gu Shu bit the tiger's mouth of Qi Zhaoyang's hand with a fierce bite!
A smell of blood immediately appeared in Gu Shu's mouth, and the next second.
"Shhh Qi Zhaoyang gasped and reluctantly let go of Gu Shu's neck.
Immediately, Gu Shu seized this opportunity...... Rolled to the side...... With a pair of beautiful eyes, he stared at Qi Zhaoyang vigilantly.
Gu Shu knew the gap between the two people, so before Qi Zhaoyang was about to raise his legs to walk towards her, he immediately said:
"I'm different from those people, I don't want to threaten you, I'm here to help you! We can cooperate! ”
Seeing that Qi Zhaoyang was indifferent, Gu Shu hurriedly said:
"I know where Wen Xihou's descendants are now!"
Suddenly hearing the whereabouts of his uncle Wenxihou and his descendants who died early, Qi Zhaoyang temporarily suppressed his killing intent with a half-believing attitude, but still walked up to Gu Shu, picked Gu Shu's chin and said:
"Where, how do you know?"
"How do you know, this is the little woman's ability to make a living, it's inconvenient to tell the prince for the time being, but the little woman can tell the prince.
Wen Xihou had a total of three sons and one daughter, although his three sons died on the battlefield with Wen Xihou, and his descendants were killed by the rebels, but Wen Xihou's daughter, that is, the cousin of the prince, escaped for some reason and has been in exile......
Five years ago, Shi Ziye's cousin married a wealthy businessman in Jindi and was in harmony with the wealthy businessman Qin Se, but two years ago, he died of childbirth, leaving behind a son......
Now his son follows his father...... Still living in Jindi...... If you don't believe it, you can ask someone to investigate......
The little woman didn't dare to deceive the prince's ......"
"Who you really are, you know so much." Gu Shu's words were extremely detailed, and there was no lack of weakness on his face, Qi Zhaoyang's trust in these words at the moment had become seven or eight points, but because of this, he became more and more defensive about Gu Shu.
"The little woman is the maiden niece of the Duchess of Yanguo...... It's no different from everyone...... It's just that the little woman knows something...... It's just a little bit more than the others......"
"If you don't want to say it, forget it...... Today's events, I will accompany others to verify, if it is really as you said...... What do you want...... Tell me, I can promise you......"
The little woman said, the little woman is now just a willow, like duckweed with nothing to rely on, just ...... I want to borrow the power of the prince to make a relationship with the prince and rely on it, so that I can do what I want to do. ”
"I heard that your aunt, Duchess Yanguo, is very fond of you, why ...... There are things that don't ask for her help......" Qi Zhaoyang asked with a frown.
"My aunt has taken me in, which is already a great kindness, and I don't dare to work my aunt all the time...... Moreover...... What I'm going to do is not clean...... Fear of retribution......
If my aunt knew what I was going to do, she would either try to stop me or help me in any way she could......
But either way...... I don't want to bother my aunt...... So...... Naturally, I didn't dare to pull my aunt's ......
However, if you cooperate with the prince, the two sides will have back and forth...... Retribution is also retribution, not to mention, just say, your position in the capital...... I think...... This is indispensable for a little woman to achieve great things......"
"Your reason is very far-fetched, but there is one sentence, what you said is quite right, take what you need......" Qi Zhaoyang sneered, let go of this Gu Shu who didn't tell the truth, and then, turned around, turned his back to Gu Shu, thought for a moment and said:
"Cooperate, if you want to borrow my power, I also need your intelligence, as long as you have a good contract spirit, I can't do it...... Give you all the power and wealth you want......"
"Tomorrow, I'll have someone check the situation, if you're telling the truth...... I immediately asked someone to propose...... But you have to remember...... Don't think about ...... Touching my family ......"
"Okay, the little woman is waiting for the good news of the prince...... The little woman has always been very regular, ......" Gu Shu sensed the danger of leaving, so she hurriedly got up from the ground, walked to Qi Zhaoyang's side, and said with a salute.
Qi Zhaoyang glanced at Gu Shu beside him casually, and then said:
"Heh, it's very deferential, what if ...... I don't know...... I can really be deceived by the way you look...... Fear...... That's how you deceived Yan Guogong......"
Qi Zhaoyang's words almost hit Gu Shu's careful thoughts, but Gu Shu didn't care and said:
"I can't deceive Yan Guogong, now, I can live in the Xie family, it's just that Yan Guogong sees my aunt's face......"
"Your aunt...... It's a legendary woman...... How many girls are envious, if they want to learn, they can't learn it......"
"But in my opinion, your aunt is not going well...... Qi Zhaoyang said in a low voice.
Qi Zhaoyang's last sentence was a little strange, seeing that Gu Shuyou wanted to ask something, Qi Zhaoyang preemptively said:
"It's been a long time since you came out today...... I'll send you back...... After I go back, if you want to contact me, ask your confidant to deliver a letter, and I will reply after reading it. ”
Gu Shu was distracted by this Qi Zhaoyang for a while, she looked at the sky, and thought about the things in the mansion, so she didn't have time to ask, and nodded in agreement......
……
……
Gu Shu and Qi Zhaoyang's current transaction is like the lonely canopy boat they are now on, hidden from outsiders, only known to insiders......
The scheming of the two people is undoubtedly the best among the young people, and in just a few hours, they have reached a profitable deal......
Come to think of it, if others know, such as Xie Ruqing, Chu Ci and others, they may have to praise these two people for their good scheming and good intentions......
It's a pity that these people don't know these things for the time being...... Let's just say that they are all in a difficult situation now......
It was almost to subvert the covenant that Nanban and Dayong had already negotiated in private......
