Chapter 90: Whoever Wins or Loses (1)
"She's gone?"
"Gone. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"Just let her go back alone?"
"It's not going back, it's leaving. ”
"Leave?"
Ji Hualian frowned slightly, but Sikong still hung his head, as if "she" was just an irrelevant person.
"Where did you go?"
"Brother Zirong is very interested in him?"
"It's not so much about her as it is about the relationship between Meng Yuan and her. ”
"Oh?" Sikong Gu raised his head slightly, "I didn't expect that Brother Zirong would also be concerned about these idle matters, and I thought that Brother Zirong was only interested in rivers and lakes." ”
"Since you are in the rivers and lakes, is there anything wrong with paying more attention to the people with the most powerful crests in the rivers and lakes?"
Ji Hualian showed a sly smile, as he expected, the relationship between Sikong Gu and Xiaoliu was by no means a simple master-servant relationship.
"Since Brother Zirong is in the rivers and lakes, is there any chaos in Jiangning City now?"
"Meng Yuan is really ruthless. ”
Sikong Gu didn't care about Ji Hualian's cunning in front of him, deliberately or unintentionally, what is the significance of Xiaoliu to Sikong Gu, Sikong Gu has not thought through it for so many years, if Ji Hualian can see through it and solve Sikong Gu's doubts, presumably Sikong Gu will not refuse. Of course, compared to Xiaoliu, an insignificant person, Sikong Gu is more concerned about the current situation in Jiangning City.
For various reasons, Sikong Gu has been confined to the Cyclamen Residence, after all, Jiangning Martial Arts, and even Jiangnan Martial Arts are probably already in a mess. In the battle of Changjie last night, the Situ family not only attacked the imperial court officials, but also attacked Sikong Gu, Shaolin Chunzhi, and Kunlun Ji Hualian. As a rookie in the rivers and lakes who has been rumored to have the "top ten" strength in the rivers and lakes, Sikong Gu's defeat of Man Hongsha, who ranks eleventh in the Who's Roman's Who, in one day is a clear proof of his martial arts. Some people in Jiangning City who didn't know the truth about last night all guessed that Sikong Gu did not die in the bloody battle last night.
Although the official army of the government had already been dispatched to the long street that was only a quarter of an hour's walk away from the government to count the number of people, the final result was that the government and the rivers and lakes were not very satisfied. Because the impact of this bloody battle was so great, the entire long street was covered with blood, and hundreds of corpses were piled up. Even identifying them one by one is difficult to complete in a single day.
What's more, it's not just this street that has an accident in Jiangning City.
Although the Chu family's rescue was timely and did not let the fire spread to the surrounding houses and shops, there were at least hundreds of people in the Situ Mansion, which covers an area of more than ten acres. Even with the assistance of the Chu family, the government would not be able to clean up this mess for a while.
Although the prefect of Jiangning has sent an urgent letter to ask for assistance from the Xiang army, the Xiang army is stationed on the outskirts of the city, and even if the letter was sent overnight last night, it will take at least a whole day to mobilize people. The officials in the official office were even more frightened, and it goes without saying that they were woken up in the middle of the night last night, and some thieves in the city took advantage of the chaos to rob their homes and houses, and flew to the official office like snowflakes as soon as the morning dawned.
There are hundreds of thousands of people in Jiangning City, plus those squires and farmers outside the city, there are about a million, Jiangning's status in the south of the Yangtze River is as important as a town stone, and now there are these big chaos, not only the Yangzhou prefect is worried, not only to visit the long street and Situ Mansion to investigate the case, and even do not hesitate to disobey the laws of the imperial court, and ask the army to transfer with private tokens. But if something goes wrong in the process of quelling the Jiangning Rebellion, I am afraid that the court will blame it, and it will not be as simple as taking off the black veil.
"I heard that Zhuge Hui is still in the yamen. ”
Under Sikong's lonely gaze, Ji Hualian had no choice but to report the intelligence he had just discovered.
"It's time for him to change his door, too. ”
Sikong Gu smiled slightly, and the corners of his mouth showed a smile again. He didn't know how many times he practiced this kind of smile before he remembered to put the corners of his eyes a little, otherwise the treacherous meaning in it would fade a lot. Once the treacherous fades, the smile becomes weird.
"What, could it be that Meng Yuan wants to ...... Do you want to include that Mr. Zhuge in the middle of the group?"
When Ji Hualian saw Sikong Gu's appearance, although he felt a little weird in his heart, after all, Sikong Gu had never shown this appearance in front of him...... If Sikong Gu has always been wearing a mask before, then the appearance of Sikong Gu at this moment shows an emotion that ordinary people should have.
"Do you take off your disguise in front of me? why?"
Although Ji Hualian didn't understand why Sikong Gu wanted to show his true emotions, instead of doing a specious cover up like half of the past, Sikong Gu's approach obviously made Ji Hualian not tighten the string in his head.
"Brother Zirong, do you think that Mr. Zhuge has any effect on me?"
"The information of the Situ family is in the hands of this big butler, right?"
"The information of the Chu family should be more detailed than that of this Situ family's chief butler. I can use all this to get from the Chu family, after all, the original agreement with the Chu family was to divide the Situ family's property equally. ”
"Then, this Mr. Zhuge must be of little use to Meng Yuan. ”
"Brother Zirong, don't forget that the news of Jiangning City has not spread throughout the entire martial arts forest now, and everything that happened in Jiangning City yesterday, because of the power of the Divine Gate in Jiangbei, I am afraid it will have some adverse effects on us......"
"So, don't we want to pull the Divine Gate into the water?"
Ji Hualian was slightly startled, he had vaguely guessed what Sikong Gu was thinking, but that idea was too amazing, which made Ji Hualian, who thought of this possibility for the first time, want to shake his head and deny it.
"Brother Zirong, you and I both know each other's purposes, I don't know if there is an honor in the next place to be able to take over Brother Zirong's position?"
Ji Hualian was stunned, he didn't expect Sikong to talk about it at all, but he suddenly jumped to another topic from how to deal with the aftermath. After glancing deeply at Sikong Gu and confirming that Sikong Gu was definitely not joking, Ji Hualian first glanced at the curtain in the small room, and then cast a suspicious look at Sikong Gu.
"Don't worry, Brother Zirong, I can't compete with you at all, besides, if we tear our faces at this time, it is not in my interests. ”
"How much do you know?"
"Before Brother Zirong asked, it was just a guess. ”
Sikong Gu smiled slightly, and at this moment, there was only a villain's smile on his face.
