Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!

Chapter 448: Gongzi Gao still has some brains and knows how to use soft tactics!

Facing Gao Yao's question, Gongzi Gao took a deep breath, calmed down, and answered slowly: "This is purely a coincidence. In the past, you sent your men to Luoyang to perform tasks, and I secretly sent people to track and monitor them. As a result, I accidentally discovered that those people you sent often inquired about and were closely in touch with various matters related to the imperial mausoleum. Not only that, they would also take the initiative to contact some craftsmen who participated in the construction of the imperial mausoleum and officials in charge of related affairs. I think these people are just following your will. It can be seen that the person who really has ulterior motives and is interested in the imperial mausoleum should be you!"

"That's the imperial mausoleum! As the descendant of the late emperor, I naturally have the opportunity to come into contact with the imperial mausoleum. Not only do I have a general understanding of the internal structure of the imperial mausoleum, I have even been personally responsible for some of its affairs. I know a lot about the specific situation of the imperial mausoleum," Gongzi Gao said slowly, his eyes deep and distant, as if he was recalling the past years related to the imperial mausoleum.

"Once the imperial mausoleum is closed, it is like an independent world. If there is no corresponding correct way to enter and exit, even if an ordinary person spends his entire life exploring it, it will probably be in vain. Moreover, if someone attempts to break into the imperial mausoleum with a powerful external force, it will inevitably cause the hidden mechanisms inside to collapse. In this case, the entire imperial mausoleum may collapse catastrophically. Even if you can really ascend the throne and rule the world in the future, it will still be difficult to enter this extremely solid imperial mausoleum to find out what's going on. As for why you have such a strong interest in the imperial mausoleum, I don't know. However, this detailed map must be worth the price, right?" As he said, Gongzi Gao slowly took out a cowhide map from his arms, and then pushed it directly in front of Gao Yao without hesitation.

This sudden move made Gao Yao slightly stunned. He obviously didn't expect that Gongzi Gao could grasp such detailed information about the Lishan Emperor's Mausoleum, and he didn't expect that the other party would take out the map and show it to him so easily. For a moment, Gao Yao's mind was filled with countless thoughts. He stared at the seemingly ordinary but mysterious map in front of him, with a complex light flashing in his eyes.

"If you take that thing out now, aren't you afraid that I will accept it without hesitation and then pretend nothing happened?" Gao Yao had a threatening look on his face, staring at Gongzi Gao in front of him, with a cunning light flashing in his eyes.

Gongzi Gao was not intimidated by his aura. Instead, he responded calmly: "Even if I am unwilling to take it out now, with your means and abilities, I believe there are many ways to force me. So, why should I struggle anymore? I am just doing my best and leaving it to fate. As for whether you are finally willing to act according to the agreement, it all depends on your heart." While saying this, Gongzi Gao always looked directly into Gao Yao's eyes, his gaze firm and calm.

Gao Yao looked at Gongzi Gao with a hint of admiration. He thought to himself that Gongzi Gao was indeed extraordinary. He was so decisive and decisive in dealing with things, and he never dragged his feet. He was also very shrewd in dealing with people, never suffering any loss, and never doing anything that would make him regret. He must have thought it through and considered all possible scenarios.

On the surface, it seemed that Gongzi Gao was bargaining and negotiating terms with him, but in fact, he was fully aware of his own situation and had no intention of blackmailing Gao Yao. On the contrary, he was just betting that Gao Yao would keep his promise.

Gao Yao had to admit that Master Gao was very smart. The more Gao Yao threatened to negotiate conditions, the better it would be to talk about feelings calmly. He turned the words that were originally intended to threaten Gao Yao into a plea, which was more to his liking and easier for him to help.

"I'll accept the good stuff. Don't worry, I will send capable people to try their best to find its whereabouts!" After Gao Yaodi put the map in his arms, he solemnly made this seemingly simple but meaningful promise.

The matter of Tianxing has always been on his mind and has never been forgotten. It's just that for a long time, he has been unable to find the right opportunity and good chance for him to take action. However, the situation is different now. Although the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan has not died, the influence he can exert on him has been reduced to a negligible level. Despite this, he still cannot be careless and neglect precautions. After all, no matter who the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan has joined now, it is unlikely that he will have the courage and strength to fight Gao Yao directly.

At present, it seems that there is only one possibility left - the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan is very likely to use other unorthodox means to secretly plot against him. Back then, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan was like a ferocious tiger that would bite anyone it chooses; but now, he is more like a poisonous snake hiding in a dark corner, waiting for an opportunity to strike, insidious and cunning, and hard to guard against. Therefore, necessary vigilance is naturally indispensable, but the strategy and method of prevention also need to be adjusted accordingly as the situation changes. From this moment on, everything must be turned from the open to the dark, and potential threats must be dealt with quietly.

Gao Yao slowly stood up, his tall figure like a towering mountain. At this moment, Gongzi Gao saw this and also stood up, and the two walked towards the main hall together.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the main hall was solemn and dignified. Generals and officials from the southern border had already arrived, and each of them was an extraordinary and well-known person. The presence of these people made the entire main hall filled with a solemn and majestic atmosphere.

When Gao Yao and Gongzi Gao walked from the back hall to the front hall one after another, everyone's eyes were instantly focused on them. Then, a uniform voice rang out: "We pay our respects to the King of Qin!"

Everyone bowed in unison towards the position where Master Gao was, showing their respect for him. In this respectful atmosphere, only Gao Yao stood firmly in his place, not moving at all.

"Today's court meeting is to reward meritorious officials and to promote military reforms!" Young Master Gao Jin followed Gao Yao's instructions and said these words clearly and honestly.

As soon as these words came out, the originally quiet hall suddenly became noisy. Except for Xiao He and Duo Si who had known the news in advance and were slightly prepared, the rest of the people were all surprised. For a moment, whispers rose and fell, spreading among the crowd like a tide.
