Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

"Will it cause misunderstanding? You all know it very well." Ning Guzhou hinted at something.

Tarrou's face darkened instantly. "He's right. What on earth did you two do behind our backs?"

Yang Caiwei's eyes flickered, as if she was thinking about how to cover up the matter.

Kong Xuande said, "Are you two done yet? We are talking about Wen Baicao now. You ignored the fact that he deliberately targeted Yang Caiwei. What are you trying to hide?"

"That's right." Yang Caiwei came back to her senses and immediately agreed.

Seeing the two of them singing in unison, as if they were in perfect harmony, Ning Guzhou's eyes couldn't help but darken.

He didn't expect that they had such a tacit understanding in private. He had clearly sent people to keep an eye on them, but he didn't receive any news. It seems that these two people are very ambitious.

When Ning Guzhou's thoughts turned to this, he felt heavy-hearted.

Kong Xuande is from the Jiuling tribe. All the members of the tribe live in the mountains and maintain a close but distant relationship with the other three tribes, so when did he become so close to Yang Caiwei?

The more Ning Guzhou thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, but he didn't show it on his face. He just smiled and said, "You are right, Tarrou, let's think about Wen Baicao's matter first, and when we have discussed it, we can ask them about their plans. Maybe we will get something unexpected."

He smiled faintly, as if he didn't care about the two of them joining forces.

Tarrou looked at him in surprise and saw that he looked calm, as if he had figured everything out and didn't intend to pursue the matter any further.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Some thoughts turned over in Taru's mind, but he quickly agreed to Ning Guzhou on his face.

Seeing that the two of them had reached an agreement, Kong Xuande and Yang Caiwei looked at each other, and seeing the vigilance and preparedness in each other's eyes, they couldn't help but smile at each other.

"Since our goals are the same, there is no need to voice out those doubts, lest those cunning Han people take advantage of the situation." Yang Caiwei restrained her expression and said solemnly.

Kong Xuande nodded immediately: "That's what I mean, Ning Guzhou, Taru, the four tribes of us can have the current status, all thanks to our concerted efforts. Otherwise, the Gu tribe will be a lesson for us."

When Ning Guzhou heard him mention the Gu tribe, his face immediately turned cold, as he had been mocking him in his heart.

Tarrou smiled faintly and said, "The Gu tribe was targeted and then destroyed five years ago because they acted too high-profile and had no allies."

"If they had learned from us, or had come directly to Bashu to cooperate with us, how could they have ended up like this?"

"To be honest, the Gu tribe's fate is a wake-up call for us. So when we deal with the Han people in the future, we must make our words clear and be more vigilant. We must not let them plot against us."

"Aren't you just talking nonsense?" Ning Guzhou was speechless.

Kong Xuande smiled and said, "Even if it's nonsense, you have to repeat it. Otherwise, I'm really worried that you will forget the lessons learned from the past when you get too excited."

Yang Caiwei agreed: "Li Keyong is the uncle of the Ninth Prince. He is not only from a noble family, but also a general. He is much smarter than ordinary people. Although you are also a rare smart person, I am really worried that you will be fooled by such a person."

"I'm not you, how could I be moved by the benefits he offers?" Ning Guzhou said sarcastically.

Yang Caiwei was not angry at all, simply because Ning Guzhou was just like that and she was used to it.

"Li Keyong is not that easy to deal with, and the benefits he offers are not that easy to obtain. Ning Guzhou, I advise you to tell us the deal between the two of you, so that we can find a way for you. Otherwise, if you suffer a loss in the future, won't you implicate us?"

Yang Caiwei's words were very shameless. Ning Guzhou immediately looked at her and saw a look of expectation in her eyes, as if she wanted to see herself being teased by others and then gain benefits from it.

"Do you know what you look like? A greedy snake trying to swallow an elephant." Ning Guzhou said sarcastically.

Yang Caiwei's expression changed slightly.

Kong Xuande gave her a look to comfort her, and then said, "Yang Caiwei is the youngest among us. There are some things she has never been exposed to, and she is still growing up. How can you, as a senior, say this to her? Aren't you afraid of offending the Miao people?"

"Ning Guzhou, although the Miao tribe is not as powerful as the Gu tribe, they should not be underestimated. If you offend the Miao tribe and are plotted against in the future, don't say I didn't warn you."

"There's no need for you to pretend to be kind." Ning Guzhou was a proud man, and after he guessed that the two had reached a cooperation, he had been secretly alert in his heart, but on his face he said some derogatory words as usual.

His attitude remained the same as before. Yang Caiwei didn't think much about it, but Kong Xuande couldn't help but look at him again.

Seeing the sarcasm on his face, it was the same as every time they met, and this time he mentioned Li Keyong again. Ning Guzhou had some connection with Li Keyong, so it was reasonable for him to express his dissatisfaction.

Kong Xuande's thoughts turned to this, and he felt relieved a little, but he said: "I mean well, if you don't want to accept it, forget it, anyway, I won't force you."

When Tarrou heard this, he felt that he was being implicit. He couldn't help but glare at him, then stroked his gray beard and said, "If you keep arguing over such a small matter, not to mention resolving the issue of Wen Baicao, I'm afraid even the iron mine issue will be delayed."

The iron mine in Mingyue Mountain is very coveted, and coupled with the unsafe environment outside, the iron mine becomes even more important to them.

In order to build weapons and enhance his own defense, Tarrou felt that no matter what little ideas these people had, they could cooperate on the surface and jointly take back the iron ore. As for how to divide it later, that would depend on actual action.

"The iron ore is of utmost importance. Don't ignore it. Otherwise, the Ninth Prince will strengthen his defenses, and we won't be able to take the iron ore back from him." Taru reminded them while thinking.

At this moment, whether it was Ning Guzhou, Kong Xuande or Yang Caiwei, they all perked up and their brains were racing.

After a while, Kong Xuande spoke first: "Although Wen Baicao seems to have deceived and used me, he brought the news about the iron mine. I think he must have a way to solve this matter."

Tarrou was worried: "He is a cunning Han Chinese, and he had contact with the Ninth Prince before. If we can't offer some benefits, he will probably not give in."

Ning Guzhou smiled coldly: "Why should we give him benefits? He is now a sheep in the tiger's mouth, at our mercy."

"What do you mean?" There was a hint of surprise in Taru's eyes, as if he really didn't understand what Ning Guzhou meant.

Ning Guzhou didn't bother to care about his pretense, and said in a cold tone: "He didn't bring anyone with him this time to Bashu, so no matter how good his martial arts are, two fists can't beat four hands."

Kong Xuande frowned deliberately: "Do you want to torture him and make him work for us like a dog? Ning Guzhou, your method is feasible, but I don't think he will give in easily."
