A confusing little system for newbie bosses
Chapter 272 Save My Hero 18 (page 12)
The two sisters chatted for a while. Since Gu Xiyuan's body had not yet recovered, Yunhuang urged her to rest and left.
Although Gu Xiyuan tried his best to persuade him to stay, Yunhuang didn't like staying in the palace anymore. He felt uncomfortable everywhere and there were many eyes watching him in the dark, so he returned to the mansion without even seeing the prince.
It's just that she was riding in the East Palace's carriage, so there was no way to get rid of the "tail" behind her.
But those people couldn't get close at all and could only wander outside the mansion.
Time flies so fast, and in the blink of an eye, it’s New Year’s Eve in five days.
In the past few days, Yunhuang would go to the East Palace every day to help Gu Xiyuan recuperate. However, he had not met the prince for such a long time. It was not known whether he was avoiding Yunhuang on purpose or if he really had something to do.
But she didn't care.
If Gu Xiyuan didn't like him, he would not be under Yunhuang's protection at all.
So far, Gu Xiyuan's body has recovered, and the Chinese New Year is getting closer. She must leave for Guyue Villa in two days at the latest.
If both daughters were away from home and did not come home to celebrate the New Year, Gu Xiaohan would be very sad.
Early this morning, Yunhuang had packed up and was waiting for the car from the East Palace to pick her up. She had been doing this all this time, after all, her own car was too flamboyant.
But she didn't expect that Gu Xiyuan would come in person, and he seemed to be in a hurry.
"Little sister, hurry up and leave the capital." Before Yunhuang could speak, she had already started urging him urgently.
She was so emotional that Yunhuang was afraid that she might have fetal force, so he could only comfort her while asking Jiujiu to check what happened.
During this period of time, she had been concentrating on recuperating Gu Xiyuan's body, and had not paid attention to other things. She did not expect that the second prince wanted to force him into the palace.
Concubine Xuan secretly gave the current emperor a chronic poison in the name of attending to his illness. This morning, the emperor had been poisoned and passed out, and the palace was controlled by Concubine Xuan.
She falsely conveyed the imperial decree and summoned all the princes into the palace, and all of them, including the prince, were trapped in the palace.
Gu Xiyuan broke out under the cover of the dead men of Guyue Villa, but she had no intention of escaping from the capital. Her purpose was to send Yunhuang out of the city and then go back to accompany the prince.
Since Yunhuang already knows her plan, he must not let her take risks.
"Sister, I already know the whole story. Since my brother-in-law is trapped in the palace, I, as my sister, can't just watch you get into danger." She pulled Gu Xiyuan and spoke sincerely, "Sister, it's not easy for me to work hard now that I'm pregnant. Leave it to me! I promise to bring my brother-in-law back safe and sound."
Gu Xiyuan wanted to say something more, but a feeling of sleepiness came over her, and she fell asleep before she could react.
"Qian Qian, send the eldest lady to rest." After receiving the order, Qian Qian sent Gu Xiyuan to the guest room with the help of Xia Qiu.
Yunhuang, who was in the front hall, was analyzing the current situation based on the information sent back by Jiujiu.
The ancestors of the Zhenguo General Mansion once conquered the world with their royal ancestors and have been loyal for generations, so they did not know about Concubine Xuan's forced concubine.
It's just that they don't have no responsibilities at all. It's their fault for not raising her well. Concubine Xuan was brought up to have such a competitive and unscrupulous character, which is inseparable from them.
General Zhenguo is far away on the southwest border. I'm afraid he never dared to dream that his daughter would force the palace to rebel!
The second prince really prepared a special New Year gift, and even Yunhuang was a little surprised.
As long as this matter does not involve Gu Xiyuan, or the prince will not interfere if Gu Xiyuan is not good, who will be the emperor, and what does her surname have to do with her?
But what can she do if she has a "love brain" sister?
Just pamper your own sister!
The capital is a place where various forces gather together, led by a few princes, and struggles overt and covert occur every day.
The situation in the palace is not optimistic now, but Concubine Xuan has the courage to imprison these princes, but she does not dare to kill them immediately.
After all, only by holding these people in hand can the forces behind them not dare to act rashly. If they die, there is no guarantee that those people will not be defeated.
The power of the Zhenguo General's Mansion is indeed not small, but it is only in the court and has little contact with the forces in the world.
Concubine Xuan now controls the palace, and the second prince is not idle either. He uses methods to imprison the family members of some ministers outside the palace just to control the Four Books and Six Books.
In just one night, the capital was completely controlled by this mother and son.
After they learned that Gu Xiyuan had escaped from the siege, they immediately decided to capture Yunhuang alive because they were afraid of the power of Gu Yue Villa. Firstly, they wanted to force Gu Xiyuan to show up, and secondly, they had hostages in hand who could restrain Guyue Villa.
Because of the experience of being "robbed" by Yunhuang last time, the guards sent by the second prince this time were stronger and even hired killers.
Unfortunately, the person he hired happened to be Xiaolou's killer.
His idea is very simple. Xiaolou is well-known as the number one killer organization in the world, and its strength is unfathomable. From its establishment to the present, there is no task that Xiaolou has not been unable to complete.
Since Gu Yunhuang is a martial arts person and has strong martial arts skills, it is natural to find the most powerful person to deal with her.
However... the second prince still felt a little sore.
The prices for doing business in this small building were so high that it almost cost him half his life.
In fact, Xiaolou's business is determined based on the identity of the target. The reason why he asked the second prince for a sky-high price is naturally because the nine owners found out that the person he wanted to deal with was Yunhuang. This business was absolutely impossible to do. .
So they sent a letter to Yunhuang for instructions, but Yunhuang's reply told them the next step and also said that they would raise the price.
As soon as the nine people thought about it, they understood what she meant. She was trying to trick the second prince.
It's just that the reason why Xiaolou has maintained its reputation in the world for so many years is because they will evaluate the possibility of completing the task before accepting it. If the evaluation results show that the risk is too high, they will refuse and refund the employer's deposit.
However, judging from the meaning in Yunhuang's letter, it was obvious that he had no intention of refunding the money to the second prince, which made several posters hesitate.
But the second floor owner doesn't care about this. Yunhuang saved his daughter's life, so of course he will obey Yunhuang's orders.
Therefore, when other posters raised questions, he said without hesitation, "Since it is the Lord's order, I will just do it. Why do I have to consider it so much?"
The other posters were not surprised at all by his reckless temperament and were not as knowledgeable as him.
On the other hand, Nan Xun, the owner of the seventh floor, was silent as if he was thinking about something. After the owner found out, he asked in a deep voice, "Old Seventh, what are you thinking about? What do you think of this matter?"
Nanxun did not hide his thoughts, "I agree with the second poster." Seeing that the other posters still didn't understand the current situation, he explained, "Now that the second prince is forcing the palace to rebel, if the Lord is not involved, He still has a slight chance of winning, but since the Lord has intervened, there is only one end for him, and he will die without a burial place."
After he explained this, others quickly figured out that since the second prince would be a "dead man" soon, Xiaolou naturally did not need to refund his deposit.
