As King Xian's eager words fell, Gu Xiang also stopped, sneered, slowly turned around, and pretended to be surprised: "Lord Wang, I don't know what you have to say?"

"Old fox" King Xian scolded secretly, but he was a little helpless to Gu Xiang, he listened to Gu Xiang's sarcastic voice, although he was angry, but he was helpless, not to mention that now there are hostages in Gu Xiang's hands, that is, in normal times, King Xian will not use force against Gu Xiang unless he has no choice. You must know that Lu Dao Gu Xiang is a veteran of the two dynasties, the prestige of the DPRK is extremely high, and he has won the hearts of the people, if he encounters an accident, I am afraid that it will not be settled in a few words, and it will take a lot of effort.

Gu Xiang has been in the officialdom for decades, and his control of the situation has long been perfect, so he naturally knows when he needs to be courteous and when he needs to get the most benefits, and at this time, Gu Xiang, who has hostages in hand, certainly has great confidence. He was not in a hurry, he looked at King Xian with a smile and a smile on his face, raised his hand to stroke his white beard, and quietly waited for King Xian to speak.

King Xian He had been so insulted, but he really couldn't imagine that after this Gu Xiang lost his son, not only was he not depressed, but he was even stronger. After a while, King Xian calmed down, let go of his palm, which had already clenched his fist, smiled reluctantly, and said softly: "Gu Xiang, you sent several sons of capable ministers in the court to prison in Jiangnan, and then escorted them back to the capital and imprisoned them here, and this king came this time to hope that Gu Xiang would give this king a thin face for the sake of everyone being an official in the same dynasty, so that a few young people would have a chance to reform themselves, and ask the old prime minister to release those sons."

"The prince is right, young people will inevitably make mistakes......" Gu Xiang frowned slightly, sighed to himself, and was a little surprised, but the words after him hit King Xian's heart into the bottom, he groaned slightly, and said, "But adultery, insults, and all kinds of evil, are no longer in the category of making mistakes, and if you want to reform yourself, you can do it in this prison, this minister will definitely assign someone to train them, and they will definitely change their minds."

King Xian was shocked in his heart, now this situation is already a scream inside, if Gu Xiang is asked to appoint a special person, I am afraid that the fate of several sons will be even more miserable, at the moment, he hugged his fist slightly at Gu Xiang, and said extremely respectfully: "Old Prime Minister, I can't hide it, several important ministers in the court are already anxious." They are all old people, and it is understandable that they miss their children, and please ask the old minister to be accommodating, so that the court can be more stable."

"Stable, I'm afraid it's your Xianwang's henchmen who are more stable, hmph, it's nice to say," Gu Xiang sneered in his heart when he heard King Xian's passionate speech. After a while, Gu Xiang stared at his eyebrows, as if he was thinking, and said: "King Xian said well, but this is really not in line with the law of etiquette, this minister is in charge of the six departments, you can't cheat for personal gain, know the law and break the law, well, I don't know if the old man has any explanations for what conditions he wants?"

King Xian solemnly looked at the seemingly thin old man in front of him, his heart was slightly cold, and he sighed secretly: He really deserves to be the elder of the two dynasties. No wonder King Xian will sigh like this, because since he appeared at the door of this prison, he has been walking with Gu Xiang by the nose, going around, actually to be after the most Lu by King Xian to say what Gu Xiang asked just now, if King Xian exits, it is equivalent to King Xian is slightly inferior, I am afraid that the control of the north gate is really going to be handed over, and Gu Xiang also intentionally or unintentionally pointed out that he is in charge of the six departments, that is to say, this ministry is under his jurisdiction, although the Ministry of Officials has people under the door of King Xian, but if you want to wrestle with Gu Xiang in the Ministry of Officials, There's still some lack of heat

If it was put in normal times, King Xian would definitely not repeat Gu Xiang's request, but now in this situation, it is obvious that King Xian is more eager, and Gu Xiang is calm and confident. After a while, King Xian had no choice but to speak: "Gu Xiang wants me to hand over the control of the north gate of the capital in exchange for the freedom of several sons." Gu Xiang's old face changed, and he pretended to be surprised: "The old man really said that? Oh, the virtuous king should be the old man's nonsense, how important the north gate is, it must be guarded by a man of great talent like the virtuous king, so as to ensure that the capital is not lost." Such an important place, the prince should think twice, these few gentlemen are not worth the prince to exchange for this" Gu Xiang, who seemed to be thinking about the virtuous king, said so many words, in fact, he was pointing out that only such an important place could Gu Xiang look at it, otherwise he would not be able to exchange anything for a few sons.

King Xian's face was a little gloomy, and his eyes looking at Gu Xiang were already mixed with a little light, but Gu Xiang was unmoved, and still maintained that compassionate expression. After a while, King Xian took a deep breath and finally said, "Gu Xiang, this king is willing to hand over the control of the North Gate, so please ask Gu Xiang to release a few sons." ”

Gu Xiang, who had long known that King Xian would eventually compromise, chuckled, shook his head lightly, and said, "Not yet......" "What, don't you believe in this king?" King Xian sneered and asked in a deep voice.

Gu Xiang's smile remained unchanged, he still raised his hand to stroke his white beard, and said: "Don't worry, the old man certainly believes in the prince, but the alternation of the north gate is very important, and the prince needs to bring the guard token of the north gate and go to the saint with me to check, then I will release these sons." Having said that, the smile on Gu Xiang's face was even worse, and he was able to always have the upper hand in the confrontation with King Xian, which was an excellent incentive for them to be royalists.

King Xian's heart tightened, and he looked at the old man in front of him in a daze, he wanted to know that King Xian of Lu Dao originally had this intention, but he didn't expect Gu Xiang to do things so well, and even a few steps after the matter was completed, he was really worthy of being a god in the court. When he came back to his senses, he could only bow his head slightly, and said: "Naturally, if this is the case, I really want to congratulate Gu Xiang for winning a slight advantage for the royalist faction." ”

Gu Xiang heard King Xian's profound words, chuckled, and sighed: "The prince should not speak like this, with the power and means of the prince, I am afraid that he has already made up his mind." However, it may not be possible to close the coffin until the end of the day, so the prince has to be careful."

"This is natural, seeing Gu Xiang do this today, this king really has a headache" The two walked side by side towards the outside of the prison, while fighting each other between words.

After the two of them got out of the prison, King Xian took the lead in getting on the white sedan chair, and he turned his head to look at Gu Xiang, who was walking towards the other sedan chair, and chuckled: "This king will go back to the house to get the token first, and then rush to the palace, and ask Gu Xiang to go first." After that, King Xian got into the sedan chair and left, and Gu Xiang looked at the sedan chair that left, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and then, he sneered, and sighed to himself: "I'm afraid I'm going back to discuss with the legendary Holy Gate military master, hehe...... The Lord of the Holy Gate is nothing but that."
