Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge
Chapter 173 Wavering
So, Li Junze gave up the idea of going to Wang Zhuo for advice and continued to sit down.
He had been calm for several days, but this matter was so weird that it made him feel even more uneasy.
"Xi Gaoyuan, please go and invite Master Qingzhu over." Li Junze finally thought of Gu Qiongsi.
Her work style and ideas are very consistent with Li Junze's, so in this situation, he actually wants to hear Gu Qiongsi's ideas.
Wen Jiaxiang and Cao Xingwen looked at each other and understood Li Junze's thoughts very well. He didn't want to wait for news passively anymore and wanted to take action.
But now, none of the three of them dared to suggest a fight to him.
That's why he thought of Gu Qiongsi.
Sure enough, after Gu Qiongsi was invited over, Li Junze asked Wen Jiaxiang to tell Gu Qiongsi about Jian Liangce's visit to Beijing.
As for what they had done to Jian Liangce in the early stage, they kept silent about it. Even so, Gu Qiongsi had roughly understood their actions in the early stage.
"Your Highness, since you have so much information, what are you still waiting for?" Gu Qiongsi was a little confused. Three days had passed, and they were actually waiting for news at home.
This is how many good opportunities have been missed.
Li Junze avoided Gu Qiongsi's inquiring gaze and said, "At first we were worried that the other party deliberately released the news to lure us into action."
"Later, various news came out, and it felt a little unusual, and even more like a conspiracy."
Gu Qiong thought about it. She had no idea what the situation was like for a provincial governor to come to the capital to see the emperor, so she didn't think there was anything particularly unusual.
After she integrated all the information she had, she asked more puzzledly, "Have you found out anything about the situation at the Dali Temple?"
Wen Jiaxiang and the others have told everything they knew. That's all they knew about the Dali Temple, especially about the master of illusion.
Gu Qiongsi said with a serious expression, "I seldom pay attention to these things in my shop, but I still hear a lot of people talking about the illusion master. Maybe there are some fabrications, but his ability should be very powerful."
"It is said that within just a few days of arriving at the Dali Temple, he has helped Lord Yan solve many problems. Some people who had never confessed have now honestly confessed everything. So now the illusion master has been treated as a distinguished guest by Yan Nangui, the Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple."
These news were spread randomly among the people and in taverns. It was impossible to know who said them, but with so many people talking about it, it was inevitable that Gu Qiongsi would pay some attention to it.
Li Junze didn't say anything because his grandfather had mentioned to him that Nanny Li was good at illusion, but now no one around him knew about it, so he didn't want to mention anything about illusion.
"I also heard about one thing, which I think is directly related to Your Highness," Gu Qiongsi continued after seeing that no one spoke after he finished speaking.
"Say, what's the matter?"
"The Dali Temple just took over two people from somewhere yesterday. They are said to be the masterminds of the Xiangyang case. Because they have not confessed, they were handed over to the Dali Temple. Lord Yan will take the trouble to interrogate them."
Gu Qiongsi's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Li Junze's heart hard.
Gu Qiongsi naturally didn't know anything about the Xiangyang case. Because it involved the struggle between princes, it was kept secret at the time, and the people who knew about it were probably limited to only a few people.
Even so, Gu Qiongsi keenly felt that this matter should have something to do with His Royal Highness Prince An.
At this moment, seeing Li Junze's pale face, she knew that she must have guessed right.
"Where did you hear this news?" Li Junze asked puzzledly.
"There are many guests eating in the lobby of Louwailou. It is especially lively during dinner time, and people are telling all kinds of news." Gu Qiongsi said calmly.
She is alone and a woman, so naturally she doesn't have her own channels and connections, but that doesn't stop her from collecting this information.
Li Junze sat down again, his fingers tapping the table unconsciously.
It is impossible to tell whether the information is true or false, but if you deliberately ask someone to find out, someone with ulterior motives might find out.
"Your Highness, I have a suggestion, but I wonder if I should say it or not?" Gu Qiongsi bowed and asked Li Junze respectfully.
When Cao Xingwen saw Gu Qiongsi's look, he curled his lips in displeasure. It turned out that she was such a person who liked to show off.
Li Junze nodded and motioned for her to continue.
Gu Qiongsi then spoke slowly, "After collecting so much information, the most critical point that can connect Jian Liangce's matter to us is the two people who are now in the Dali Temple."
"It has been almost two months since the Xiangyang case happened, and they haven't said anything. But now that the Dali Temple has that illusion master, I wonder if they can still hold on?"
Gu Qiongsi's words were cryptic, but everyone present understood them. Wang Quan and Ji Huan were the key figures who dragged Prince An into this. If they could be silenced, then the incident would no longer be related to Prince An.
"But the Dali Temple has always been heavily guarded, and Yan Nangui is not someone you will easily deal with. At a time like this..." Cao Xingwen felt that this was very risky and had to speak out his objection.
Although Wen Jiaxiang usually disagreed with Cao Xingwen, this time he surprisingly agreed with him. He nodded and said, "Yes, Your Highness, I also agree with Brother Cao."
Li Junze turned his gaze to Gu Qiongsi again. He was also a little hesitant in his heart.
Gu Qiongsi was determined. "If we do it, there is a 50% chance of success. If we do nothing, and someone asks us something, we won't even have a chance to defend ourselves. I don't think anyone would like the feeling of having their fate in the hands of others."
Her words even surprised the others. Where did a woman get the courage to dare to think and do such things?
Li Junze nodded after listening to this. Perhaps he had been waiting for just such a sentence. "Well, Qingzhu's words make sense. Let's discuss this matter in detail and start tonight."
"No, not at night. This afternoon is the best time." Gu Qiongsi said.
