Chapter 1104: Acquaintances
Gu Shenwei's identity in the mission was a horseman, from Loulan Kingdom, diligent, but unable to speak, born mute, his name and appearance were reported to the Central Plains early in the morning, and he was not suspected along the way.
He blended into the team when he was ten days away from the capital, and the real groom was escorted by others, following behind the mission, and he could exchange identities with Gu Shenwei at any time.
Indeed, there are many people who speculate that the Dragon King may be hiding in the Western Regions Mission, and has investigated many times openly or secretly, and the Biyu Kingdom Mission is the key object of suspicion, and no one thought that a horseman in Loulan Kingdom would have a problem, and his name and appearance are recorded and flawless.
Zihe Zhenren believed that the Dragon King was hiding in the Huaixi Pavilion where the mission lived, so after meeting with an important person, he asked Fan Yongda to go to the Huaixi Pavilion to spread the word.
Fan Yongda found the wrong person, he met Shangguan Ru, "The old immortal has entered the palace to explain the situation, and the dragon king doesn't need to hide anymore." ”
But this sentence still spread in the mission, Gu Shenwei quietly left, restored his original face, and went to the Kongtong faction to check the situation, he saw the whole process of the competition, including Han Fen's nonsense, he didn't make a move until Huo Yun was in danger.
The Kongtong faction made its attitude clear in public, Gu Shenwei sent the injured Huo Yun to the door of the Huaixi Pavilion, and left immediately, and after quietly meeting with a few people, he returned to the Kongtong faction that night to meet Zihe Zhenren, he informed Han Fen of Huo Yun's whereabouts, thus taking her away.
Shangguan Ru took Huo Yun in and guessed Gu Shenwei's intentions, so he also came to the Kongtong faction that night.
She is the guardian of the Dragon King of Biyu Kingdom, and she has no right to walk freely in the capital, and if she wants to step out of the gate of Huaixi Pavilion, she must apply to the officials of the Central Plains in advance, and she is accompanied by the Central Plains people throughout the process, so she can only act in secret and must not show her face.
This is the whole process, the two didn't talk for too long by the woods outside the city, they sneaked back to the Huaixi Pavilion together, the real groom had returned, Gu Shenwei hid in Shangguan Ru's room, and after two hours, he could finally show up in public.
Zihe Zhenren claimed that there would be news the next morning, and asked the factions in the Central Plains not to be too surprised, but in fact, the news had been circulated on a small scale that night, and in the morning, it really made the various sects and even the military and civilians of the whole city stunned.
The red bat has been married to Long Chuanyun, and still follows Shangguan Ru to the Central Plains as a maid, she hurriedly ran in early in the morning, panting and said: "Sect leader, sect leader, have you heard?"
"What did you hear?" Shangguan Ru was neatly dressed, sitting at the table reading a book.
"The emperor issued a decree saying that the so-called killer of the Western Regions has nothing to do with the Dragon King, and he is no longer wanted. ”
"Well, it's long overdue. ”
The head of the sect surprised the red bat, "The head of the sect ...... You already knew?"
Shangguan Ru smiled, "Go and tell everyone to go to the living room, I want to introduce an important guest." ”
The red bat was stunned for a moment, and then left with a smile on his face.
A quarter of an hour later, Gu Shenwei was finally able to meet his former subordinates publicly, although he would never use the word "subordinates" again.
There are many acquaintances, there are five Great Snow Swordsmen, three soldiers of the Land of Incense, and a savage officer, all of whom were once members of the Thousand People Army directly under the Dragon King, and they adhered to the old title, and bowed on one leg very formally, and they all looked very excited after getting up, but they didn't say much, and they quickly retired.
Next were the more familiar people, Shangguan Fei, Sun Shenyi, Red Bat and Fang Wenshi, the four of them followed the advice and no longer called "Dragon King", but "Gu Gongzi".
"Sounds a little raw. Shangguan Fei said with a grin, he didn't want to come to the Central Plains, he was pulled by his sister, and he didn't have so much excitement about seeing the Dragon King again, "But there can only be one Dragon King, since the new king has been established, the old one can no longer be called, this is like words, otherwise the Central Plains should say that we are a small country in the middle of nowhere, haha." ”
Red Bat didn't like Shangguan Fei's tone, and interjected: "Speaking of etiquette, our Ninth Prince almost betrayed Biyu City back then, and last year he pestered the head of the sect to be the king of Dubu, and I don't know if he will be laughed at by the Central Plains?"
Shangguan Fei's face turned red all of a sudden, when Biyu City was at its most critical, he did accept Shang Liao's bribe, but before he could gather a group of forces, Dugu Xian had already surrendered, so that the conspiracy ended without a hitch, "I'm not the only one who made a mistake. He defended himself, "As for the Dubu King, the new Dragon King doesn't need it anyway, so it's a pity to disappear like this." ”
"Even the killer is gone, what do you want to do with the title of Dubu King?" Doctor Sun said, since the first time he saw Gu Shenwei, his gaze has never left, and he always wants to reach out to diagnose the pulse, "The matter of Biyu City has passed, there is nothing to say, but the Dragon King...... Gu Gongzi, how can you still be alive? I mean you are still alive and well, no, no, I want to know, your internal injuries ......"
In order to satisfy Doctor Sun's wishes, Gu Shen showed his wrist and asked him to diagnose his pulse, "Reverse practice and then practice smoothly, this is still the method that Doctor Sun came up with." ”
"Uh-huh. Doctor Sun was engrossed in diagnosing the pulse, and did not listen to Gu Shenwei's words.
Gu Shenwei looked at Fang Wenis and said, "The military advisor didn't talk much today. ”
"Hey, Gu Gongzi is no longer called the Dragon King, what else am I called? Now I am a businessman. ”
"The biggest businessman in Biyu City. Red Bat added, "He prepared all the gifts for Nagong this time. ”
Paying tribute to the Central Plains has never been just a simple political activity, a large number of merchants from the Western Regions participated in it, offering the native products of the Western Regions to the emperor of the Central Plains, and then getting a reward worth several times this, Fang Wen chose to do business, naturally he would not waste such a business opportunity to make money without losing money, in fact, many kings of the Western Regions even "sold" the right to pay tribute to the merchants, from which to receive a kickback, with the previous friendship, Fang Wen is to save this procedure.
Even as a businessman, Fang Wenshi seemed too silent, and there was always a stupid expression on his face, and he didn't seem to be very happy.
Gu Shen can understand, he did not say goodbye at the beginning, only left a few simple letters, to the disappointment of the ambitious military advisor, since then disheartened, although he assisted Shangguan Ru to establish the Biyu Kingdom, made great contributions, the situation calmed down a little, he still abandoned the official to engage in business.
"With Mr. Fang's intelligence, business will naturally be invincible. Gu Shenwei sighed slightly, "It's a pity, I can't get any more advice from Mr. Fang." ”
"Advice? Fang Wens immediately stood up, he was a lot fatter than when he was the most depressed, but not so weak, much stronger, raised his hand and patted his chest twice, "You also have to give advice in business, I haven't fallen behind at all, Long ...... Gu Gongzi, you just have to ask, I have investigated the situation in the Central Plains in advance, and I know a lot, for example, the emperor's edict that came out this morning is very strange, I analyze it......"
"Mr. Fang. Red Bat hurriedly interrupted Fang Wen, who was full of interest, "You have too many words. ”
"What's wrong? I didn't ask him about abandoning everyone at the beginning, the past is over, right? Gu Gongzi asked me about the current matter, can't I say it?"
Gu Shenwei was stunned, it turned out that these people had discussed in advance, if they saw the Dragon King again in the Central Plains, no one would mention embarrassing old things.
It's a bit embarrassing, the dragon king has created a variety of forces, but it has also caused a series of wars, and the revered and the hated have extremely good reasons.
There was a subtle silence in the room, but fortunately, Doctor Sun suddenly spoke: "I really didn't expect that you are recovering very well, even the hidden danger of going mad is much smaller, and your face is much more normal than before." ”
Shangguan Fei and Red Bat immediately congratulated warmly, and the embarrassing atmosphere was swept away.
Doctor Sun waved his hand to shut up the two, "Don't worry, I haven't finished talking yet." Dragon King, someone is helping you, right?" he forgot to call "Gu Gongzi", and no one corrected him, "It is absolutely impossible for you to suppress hidden dangers on your own, that is part of the Wudao Divine Skill, no one can defeat yourself by yourself, you must have the help of outsiders, and it is someone with similar skills to you." ”
Gu Shenwei nodded.
"Look, I knew it was so. It won't be ...... Imperial Master, right?" Divine Doctor Sun's face changed slightly, he still remembered the experience of being trapped in Xiaoyue Hall, he was a little timid when he mentioned Huo Yun, and then he lowered his voice and added: "I saw her, she is ...... now You're a complete lunatic, you have to be careful if you ask her to help. ”
The scene was embarrassing again, Fang Wen took the initiative to break the siege, "Gu Gongzi, there is another person you must meet, she refuses to come herself, she can only work for you." ”
"Xu Yanwei still hates me?" Gu Shenwei had been hiding in the mission for more than 20 days, and he had a clear understanding of the membership.
"It's not hate. Fang Wen found it difficult to explain, "Anyway, if you kill her brother, she has to say something, otherwise she feels sorry for Xu Xiaoyi." ”
Red Bat explained in a timely manner, "Miss Xu is married to Mr. Fang, and it is also her idea to do business, so Mr. Fang can be obedient." ”
Fang Wen is hehe laughed a few times, he is now a famous merchant in Biyu City, and he is also a famous afraid wife, everyone in the city knows that he is the only rich man who never visits the Ji Yuan.
Gu Shenwei heard about this for the first time, and he was still wondering, Xu Yanwei followed the mission to the Central Plains for no reason, what was he doing, it turned out to be to supervise her husband, and he was not allowed to take the opportunity to ask for flowers and willows.
"I'm going to see her. Gu Shenwei glanced at Shangguan Ru, she didn't say much from beginning to end, but she kept smiling, revealing irrepressible joy.
Huaixi Pavilion is the general name of a large number of buildings, the people of Biyu Kingdom occupy a courtyard exclusively, Fang Wen is the guide, as soon as he came out of the room, he pointed to the main room and said: "The new Dragon King lives here, whether you want to see it or not, you decide for yourself." ”
"Not yet. Gu Shenwei hadn't figured out how to face the kid who was now more than ten years old.
"Well, in the courtyard next door is the Shule State Mission, there are also your acquaintances there, Tie Linglong took Xiao Chu to her brother King Shule, and next to it is Kang Guo, now it is not a small country, Shang Liao came to the Central Plains in person - there is no need to see him, a little farther away is Xiao Wanguo, alas, I didn't get rid of Shangguan Yun at the beginning, it's really ...... It's hard to say whether it's a blessing or a curse. ”
Gu Shenwei knew all these things, but he still liked Fang Wen's introduction.
Fang Wen also found a little feeling, suddenly stopped, looked back and forth, and found that there were no outsiders, grabbed Gu Shenwei's arm, and whispered: "Whether you call it Dragon King or Gu Gongzi, I'll just ask, are you going to make trouble in the Central Plains?"
Fang Wenye's expression was extremely serious, and Gu Shen had to answer this question seriously, "Well, it's a big fuss." ”
Fang Wen's broad face slowly bloomed into a smile, "Count me in, if it weren't for this matter as a hope, I wouldn't have come to the Central Plains at all." (To be continued.) )
