When Ye Jiuzhong bowed respectfully and said such words sincerely, Wan'er's eyes flowed, and her pretty face was a little angry, and she glanced at him complainingly, but the words were already out, if she resigned, she would fall behind.

In desperation, Wan'er could only get up slowly, Ying Ying took a few steps, the willow waist turned, the body moved slightly, the crisp chest trembled, the next moment it was slightly condensed with beautiful eyebrows, slender hands staggered in front, and carried up the Prajna exercises, all of a sudden, her eyes condensed, like the internal force of water poured out, and the majestic internal force filled the entire hall, making the wooden chair screen tremble.

Mo Ye and the others looked at the jade man with slightly condensed eyebrows and slightly trembling willow waist, their eyes were full of incredible, they thought that this woman could sit in this position, on the one hand, because she was a relationship with Ye Feng's woman, and on the other hand, because of her extraordinary mind and skill, but they never imagined that this woman's strength was so strong. Its internal force is strong, fierce and abnormal, and when it is covered by that internal force, it feels the cold feeling of the cold blade entering the body, which makes the heart sink and have a little fear.

There is no doubt that to have such a degree of internal force, Wan'er's attainments in internal force are already above Ye Jiuzhong, although between life and death, it does not completely rely on the majesty of internal force, but after all, this is the fundamental embodiment of a person's strength, Mo Ye and the others are convinced of Ye Jiuzhong's statement now. Several people looked at the jade man with a little fear in their eyes.

Although Gu Xiang is not proficient in martial arts, but relying on his own feelings, he can clearly feel that the sense of oppression around his body at this time is much stronger than when Ye Jiu exerted his strength before, because it is safe, he still tilted his head and asked the Gu family housekeeper on the side: "I don't know what you think of the strength of this Nangong Wan'er?" After a while, Gu Xiang couldn't hear the butler's response, so he looked at him suspiciously, but saw him frowning, staring closely at the woman who exuded a strong aura, his body trembled slightly, his old face was full of surprise, and he muttered to himself.

"Ahem...... cough" Gu Xiang coughed lightly a few times, and woke up the Gu family housekeeper who was deep in thought, and when he saw that the housekeeper had come to his senses, he lowered his eyebrows and asked: "I don't know what you think of Nangong Wan'er's strength?" Hearing this, the housekeeper tilted his head slightly and stared at the enchanting figure, lowered his eyebrows and thought about it, and said respectfully: "Gu Xiang, judging from Nangong Wan'er's strength, it is undoubtedly above Ye Jiuzhong, and what makes me care more is the magic method of hidden strength she has, her strength just now is average, and there is nothing outstanding, But now she has slightly changed the shape of her hand, that is, her skill has risen greatly, if the current strength is all her strength, then her strength should be similar to mine, we fight to the death, it should be a lose-lose, but if her strength is still retained, then her control of internal force has reached the point of perfection, comparable to the top of the rivers and lakes."

Gu Xiang's heart was slightly cold, and his eyes became more and more solemn when he looked at Wan'er, because this was the first time he had heard this housekeeper say such an evaluation of a woman, and more importantly, this woman was only twenty-eight years old.

Wan'er saw that their eyes had changed greatly, and there was a faint sense of respect in their demeanor, but she also smiled slightly, and was a little grateful to Ye Jiuzhong for asserting his opinions. If it weren't for Ye Jiuzhong's assertions, if a figure like Gu Xiang wanted to negotiate cooperation, he would have obstructed it in every possible way, and he would have to let the imperial court achieve the desired goal, so he would nod and agree, and now, the deterrence of the two of them in turn can fight for some of Ye Meng's interests.

Wan'er is extremely intelligent, and her grasp of human feelings and sophistication is just right, and after achieving the deterrent effect, she just accepts it when she sees it, and she does not use all her strength. His eyes were slightly condensed, and as soon as his willow waist was stretched, he took a few steps back, put away the surging momentum, and the whole person became quiet again, and he confessed to a few people slightly, and then turned around and sat back on the main seat.

Wan'er is not in a hurry, she knows the essentials of negotiation, whoever says her bottom line first will definitely lose, so she was calm in her heart, smiled at Ye Jiuzhong, bowed her head slightly, picked up the purple sand teapot on the wooden table, and tasted a sip of fragrant tea.

But Gu Xiang's heart is far from being as calm as he shows, on the surface he is silent, even from the beginning, his sitting posture has not changed, if outsiders look at it, they must feel that he is calm and calm, and he is not chaotic, and the housekeeper who has followed Gu Xiang for decades and is extremely familiar with him is worried, and he is a little anxious about Gu Xiang's state at this time, because he knows that if Gu Xiang's sitting posture remains unchanged, bowing his head and not speaking, it is not quiet, but hesitant in his heart, and he does not know how to say it, which can be seen from his fingers tapping on the wooden table.

For a moment, there were only a few people in the hall exhaling, which seemed strange and abnormal.

Wan'er Jiao laughed, since she was the host, and Gu Xiang was originally a guest, she didn't want to embarrass him too much, so she whispered: "Gu Xiang, I don't know if I suddenly arrived in Suzhou this time, somehow?"

After a while, Gu Xiang eased up a little, raised his head, his old hand stroked the teapot on the wooden table, his old face wrinkled slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Miss Nangong, don't you know that the rivers and lakes are part of this world?"

Wan'er was a little surprised, she didn't understand the meaning of the old man's question, she didn't dare to be careless in her heart, she wanted to know that Lu Dao was the first person to fight with her today, if this old man took the initiative, then Ye Meng would undoubtedly be defeated and retreated, and finally fell into the vassal of the imperial court. In this case, Wan'er didn't want it to happen, so at this moment, the confrontation between the words and deeds of the two was an alternative sword and sword, and there might be hundreds of possibilities between the lightning and flint, which would eventually affect where the two parties would end.

It should be that this cooperation is extremely important to them, but they don't dare to agree easily, and they all want to strive for more benefits for the interest groups they represent, which is no wonder to them, officialdom and rivers and lakes are almost the same, dark and treacherous, and they will inadvertently be put to death by opponents who don't know how to do it. Therefore, no matter what, they must strive for more interests and get more protection, and they must know that they have to face the Holy Gate, a behemoth in front of any force, and if they are not careful, the entire force will encounter great difficulties, and if they are uprooted by the Holy Gate, there will be no chance of a comeback, so this man and woman, old and young, are all cautious.

Wan'er groaned slightly, looking at the old man's old face full of ravines, she couldn't help but be a little admired, worthy of being a veteran of the two dynasties who had been in the officialdom for decades, but for a moment, the anxiety in his heart had disappeared, and the relaxed look on his face was no longer pretentious. In desperation, Wan'er could only sigh and adjust her state, and then, she had to be cautious, not allowing for a little difference, and whispered: "Of course, Gu Xiang, the rivers and lakes are part of the world, and we in the rivers and lakes have the obligation to make a contribution at the time of the national crisis. ”

Gu Xiang's eyes condensed, and secretly said "Amazing", Wan'er said to Gu Xiang at a young age, not flustered at all, and the answer was reasonable, the answer just now inadvertently emphasized the role of the rivers and lakes, and highlighted the merits of the people in the rivers and lakes, and Wan'er knew the true meaning of Gu Xiang, but she only talked about thieves and barbarians, but she didn't mention anything about the Holy Gate, just waiting for Gu Xiang to propose, because whoever proposed it first meant that the Holy Gate was more in danger to him, and this fell behind. Gu paid more and more attention to Wan'er, originally thought that Wan'er was strong and had excellent skills, but he didn't expect that he could shine in addition to the defense, and he would not fall behind him, an old man who had been in the officialdom for decades.

Gu Xiang's face just changed, but for a moment, his face was a little fixed, he looked at Wan'er who was smiling, and suddenly felt that he was meeting an opponent, and he couldn't help but fight even more, and finally chuckled, and said: "The country rises and falls, the people are sad, do the people in the rivers and lakes want to cooperate with the imperial court and return a bright world in this world?"

Wan'er covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes rolled slightly, she shook her head lightly, and sighed: "Gu Xiang, the little woman doesn't dare to agree, although we are a part of this country, we have our own attitudes and bottom lines, and the responsibility for the rise and fall of the country and the sorrow of the people lies more in the court, if the court is capable, it is even more worried that the world is not prosperous."

When Gu Xiang heard this, he was a little angry, and said in a deep voice: "According to what Miss Nangong said, then do you Ye Meng want to fight against the imperial court?"

Wan'er was unmoved, stroked her sideburns, smiled coquettishly, and sighed: "Until now, Gu Xiang still has to deceive himself? I, Ye Meng, am just an organization formed spontaneously by the Jianghu sect, and I didn't rebel in the first place, and the disciples who came to the sect followed the rules and didn't do anything that hurt the heavens and reason, how did it become that I want to fight against the imperial court, and don't even allow the mutual exchanges between our sects? Hehe, if you want to talk about the court, doesn't Gu Xiang know who Lu Dao is?" I can't help but be angry.

"Presumptuous" Gu Xiang shouted, suddenly slapped the wooden table, and stood up, glaring angrily, and then the Gu housekeeper took a few steps in advance, protected his body, and looked at Wan'er. Seeing this situation, Mo Ye and the others couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but they could only remain silent.

Wan'er saw Gu Xiang like this, and smiled in her heart, knowing that she was victorious today, and it was an honor in itself to make the first phase of the dynasty so chaotic. Therefore, Wan'er smiled even more on her face, without the slightest flustery, and said softly: "Gu Xiang, you can't hold your breath so much, how can you be the first phase of the dynasty?"

Gu Xiang's heart slowed down, and he came back to his senses slightly, but he was a little surprised by his own situation, and he didn't expect that he was self-proclaimed resourceful, but he was led by the nose by the pretty woman in front of him, which was really a big loss of face. After a while, he sat down slowly, stared at Wan'er, and said in a low voice: "Nangong Wan'er, you won"
