[Comprehensive Martial Arts] Known as the killing star, I am in love

On the second day, the rooster crowed three times and the sky became white.

Everyone was in chaos all night yesterday, and they didn't sleep until early in the morning.

Xiaoqi reheated the prepared breakfast over and over again, but they still didn't get up.

Ugh--

Xiao Qi looked at the soft fried dough sticks and sighed, walked to the steps in front of the house and sat down bored.

While nibbling on the softened fried dough sticks, he played with the little bird flying to the yard.

Just when he was eating the fourth fried dough stick, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Outside the dilapidated gate, a hunchbacked old man wearing a conical hat stretched out his thin hand, trembling, and knocked on the door three times.

Xiao Qi stopped eating, he held the bowl in one hand, and listened with his ears pricked up.

The knock on the door rang three times and then there was no movement. Just when he thought it was just knocked by mistake, the sound rang again.

It was still three beeps, but the first two beeps were closely connected together, and the third beep sounded after a pause.

Xiao Qi couldn't care less about eating, he wiped his mouth, and ran to the backyard like a fly, opened a side door there, and stood aside respectfully.

Outside the door, the old man wearing a conical hat stood there with his hands behind his back. Seeing the door opened, he staggered in.

However, when Xiaoqi closed the door tightly, the man's walking suddenly became lighter, his back was straight, and he didn't look a bit old.

"Where is Yu Ze?"

His voice is quite young, but unexpectedly calm, with a confident self-confidence in his chest, under the conical hat, a curly curly hair fell down, he raised his head, with wrinkles on his face, but a pair of eyes As bright as a cold star, there is vitality in it, it is Gu Xichao.

"He is still asleep after treating the wound."

Xiao Qi led the way, Gu Xichao frowned slightly.

"wake him up."

He said.

cruel.

decisive.

And ruthless.

……

Yu Ze had never slept so deeply. He even had a dream. In the dream, Chu Liuxiang took him to the beach to eat crabs. The crab clamped his nose with its pliers disobediently. Feeling suffocated all the time.

So he woke up.

There was an old crab in front of him, and that old crab clamped his nose with his hands.

"Gu Xichao."

Yu Ze recognized the wrinkled man in front of him at a glance, and said softly.

Seeing that he woke up, Gu Xichao didn't continue pinching his nose, let go and sat aside, his skin was visibly pale.

Chu Liuxiang was tired and slept here last night, but at this moment she woke up in a daze when she heard the movement.

Turn around,

Seeing that Yu Ze had got up and half leaned on the bed.

So his mind suddenly cleared up, he leaned over to support Yu Ze, and asked, "How is your health?"

Gu Xichao, who was ignored, twitched the corner of her mouth, and interrupted the two of them with a light cough.

Only then did Chu Liuxiang realize that there was another person in front of him, and his face looked familiar.

"You are……"

"it's me."

"Master Gu?"

"Well," Gu Xichao responded, and glanced at Yu Ze, seeing that the man tilted his head without showing any resistance, so he didn't hide anything from Chu Liuxiang, and said bluntly: "I probably know the ins and outs of this incident. , Dichen wine, blue-winged insects, all of these are just to help King Wu'an rebel."

Gu Xichao threw down a thunder with an extremely calm expression.

!!!

Chu Liuxiang, who had been taught by Miao Miao outdoors, hadn't recovered from the weirdness of the blue-winged insect, and was dizzy again by the news.

"Someone wants to rebel?!"

He repeated, a crack appearing on his suave face.

"But half a year ago, Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng fought against Ye Gucheng on the top of the Forbidden City, and there were already people..."

"The news is quite well-informed."

Gu Xichao glanced at him inexplicably, changed his posture, propped his forehead with his hands, and leaned against the table with a sleepy look.

In fact, there were two rebellions in total. Cai Jin rebelled a year ago and was killed by Yu Ze in his mansion before he took action.

The officials didn't believe it at first, until Gu Xichao directed and acted on his own and brought the evidence of the rebellion to him.

For the sake of the royal majesty, this matter was concealed, and it was only said that Cai Jin committed public anger in Yurou Township and was punished for the heavens. The treatment of Cai Jin's lineage was also based on accepting bribes, life, etc., which were not comparable to rebellion. Painful words.

Unexpectedly, in less than half a year, there will be another rebellion, still under the watchful eyes of the public, the royal majesty still cannot escape the certain fate of being swept away.

Well……

Seeing this is coming for the third time.

Gu Xichao suddenly felt a bit of a headache, before the little prince ascended the throne, he wouldn't have to keep fighting these monsters, would he?

He is obviously just a prince and grand tutor, but at the same time he is doing the work of imperial guards, court doctor and six doors...

Ugh--

He couldn't help but sighed in his heart, feeling that the wound on his body was starting to hurt again.

Yu Ze stared at him, and could see his discomfort at a glance, and said in a deep voice, "Are you injured?"

"Well," Gu Xichao nodded, but didn't explain further, "I'll talk about this matter later, I have limited time now, so let me explain the ins and outs first."

"At the beginning of the founding of the country, Liu Anbo was born and died with the Taizu. After the founding of the country, the Taizu promised Liu Anbo to enjoy the glory for generations to come, so he was named King Wu'an, and the title can be hereditary. Now... it is the sixth generation. Afterwards, King Wu'an's real power continued to weaken, and his descendants fought for the title every day, causing serious internal conflicts, and King Wu'an was no longer a name."

"But who would have expected that Liu Jie would appear later..."

Having said this, Gu Xi frowned.

"This man was originally the concubine of the family. When the family was fighting in a miasma, he directly concealed his identity and went to the border to serve as a soldier. He made great military exploits. After returning with his military exploits, the then King Wu'an and the former concubine of the Liu family happened to die of illness. Son, so the title fell to him in the end, so he went around for decades, and in the end, King Wu'an still controlled the military power, the official...he is another..."

Gu Xichao glanced at Yu Ze and swallowed the uncivilized words in his mouth.

"In short, he turned a blind eye to this and sat and watched Liu Jie grow stronger, which led to his thoughts of usurping the throne. But he is a king with a different surname, and the official family established a prince early. Even if he directly rebelled by force, his reputation would be unfair, and he would win the hearts of the people. Floating, even if you win the throne, you will not be able to sit firmly."

"So... so he used Dichen to control those high-ranking officials?"

Yu Ze thought for a while, and immediately figured out the key point.

"I understand. Now that the crown prince is young, if the emperor dies, he can manipulate those civil servants to recommend him as regent, and use the emperor as a stepping stone. People will have the idea of ​​betrayal - who would like to do this? A good official should not run to rebel..."

Yu Ze propped his cheeks, and suddenly looked at Gu Xichao teasingly.

"Then he doesn't see you as a thorn in his side now?"

"Yes, so after we investigated the Musk Moon Tower and was discovered by him, he simply used this matter directly, and now he is trying to frame me for rebellion, and he will use it as his shield by the way."

Gu Xichao was smiling, with anger and disdain in her eyes, but she was not flustered.

"I don't understand that I just want to make a plan to realize my ambition, that's all, but there are always people who can't figure it out and block my way..."

Gu Xichao looked at the teacup in his hand, as if looking at the lifeless Liu Jie, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Yu Ze shuddered, and suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Liu Jie.

It's not good to offend anyone, but Gu Xichao.

If it was his personal grievances before, then it is obvious that he has offended Gu Xichao now, and it is still an extremely thorough one.

He lowered his eyes to look at Gu Xichao's chest, judging from his years of experience, there must be an injury there.

As for how to suffer...

By accident, Yu Ze recalled Gu Xichao's utterly desperate pursuit in order to perform a cruel trick.

I understood instantly.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk, Liu Jie is going to be cold.

It forced Gu Xi to stab him in the chest, and after that, he would probably have to stab him back thousands of times.

Poor, so pitiful.

Yu Ze moved his butt, and began to think about what price would be more appropriate if Gu Xi was too angry to hire him to kill Liu Jie.

Just as he was thinking, there was a sudden "click" in front of him.

Yu Ze immediately looked over in horror, the cup in Gu Xichao's hand had cracks.

In order to prevent the atmosphere in the room from getting colder and colder, Yu Ze decisively called out to attract Gu Xichao's attention, and the more he talked... the more he felt something was wrong.

"Then he...has some tricks. He knows how to use the day of the wine tasting banquet to control some literati, so as to control the direction of Shilin's public opinion. What are those Jiang Hu people for? It can't be to deal with me, right?"

Yu Ze's brow raised a "Chuan", and his tone was full of disbelief and deep doubts about his business.

"They controlled the gangsters at the wine-tasting banquet. If they were targeting me in the first place, they should have discovered that I was investigating them earlier, but why didn't they do it at the wine-tasting banquet? And... I can't be exposed so quickly, can I?"

"I don't think they're after you."

At this moment, Chu Liuxiang spoke.

"Do you still remember what Zhou Nie said that day? He knew that King Wu'an rebelled, but he didn't know who was threatening him. That is to say, there was a mysterious person who brewed dust-cleaning wine and helped King Wu'an control He has hired high-ranking officials, scholars, and some martial arts figures, but no one knows his true face..."

Yu Ze's face darkened.

Chu Liuxiang looked at him and paused for a moment, then said: "Those people from the Jianghu were not prepared for you in the first place. King Wu'an has a large army in his hand and can't use these people, and many of the extra invitations were prepared for those people from the Jianghu. , maybe... those high-ranking officials and talents are for King Wu'an, and the Jianghu people... are for his own selfishness."

"What's the matter?" Yu Ze sneered, "Does he still want to dominate the world?"

"Whether it's domination of the rivers and lakes or rebellion, it's a good thing for you."

Gu Xichao smiled slightly and said: "These two things are big things, even if it's just news that doesn't know the truth or not, the Six Doors and the Shenhou Mansion will definitely do their best to investigate, not to mention that the matter of rebellion is already a certainty. .If you don’t want to involve Xuanshui Tower, you can do it by yourself... oh no, two people..."

He glanced at Chu Liuxiang who was at the side, and changed his words quite smoothly.

"If it is too difficult for two people to verify, you can definitely rely on the strength of the Six Doors and the Shenhou Mansion. They must be happy to help in such a major event. As for the Musk Moon Tower-I have already invited people to go to the mess last night. Check it out, if there is any news, they will come and let you know."

After finishing speaking, Gu Xichao was about to stand up and leave, but when he moved, a smear of blood suddenly appeared on his chest.

"You really don't need to re-bandage?"

Yu Ze stared at his chest and frowned.

After seeing Gu Xichao's refusal, Yu Ze still couldn't help asking: "You are injured now, it's better to be careful in the palace."

The smile on Gu Xichao's face was somewhat sincere.

"You don't have to care too much about me. As long as the officials protect me, basically there will be no problems. After all, although my calligraphy and painting have been neglected recently, they are still much better than Liu Jie."

The corner of Yu Ze's mouth twitched: Do you still have to rely on calligraphy and painting to make the emperor happy?

Facts have proved that this is really the case.

"Back then, Cai Jinneng's official recognition was based on his good writing," Gu Xichao said indifferently, "Actually, I thought about whether I should ask you to hunt him down again, and then I would block the official's knife, but after thinking about it The chest has already been cut, and it is not worth another one. And now he doesn't seem to be very suspicious of me. I chatted with him for a while last night with a "weak" face. It's out."

"As for King Wu'an...heh."

Brother, don't laugh, you make me panic.

Yu Ze looked at Gu Xichao and silently swallowed.

"I can do what those lords did to Cai Jin back then, if I can't..."

Yu Ze felt blessed immediately, and stretched out his hands to make a comparison.

"1 taels of silver."

"So expensive?"

"Friendship price, do you think that Wang with a different surname is a Chinese cabbage on the street?"

"Staging."

"I want interest."

"make a deal."

……

In Prince Wu'an's mansion, Liu Jie suddenly sneezed three times in a row.

"I caught wind and cold? The quilt was covered well last night..."

He stretched out his hand to take the cloak handed over by the servant, thinking about that Gu Xichao in the palace, but he didn't know that his life had already been secretly priced.

1 million taels of silver.

Pay it off in installments over a year, including the interest, a total of 540 taels, not more than one cent, not less.

It is not worth as much as the jade ruyi in his study. .

The author has something to say: I changed the blood coral to Yuruyi

Poverty limits my vocabulary about luxury goods, and I didn’t realize that it collided with the one from Liu Shangshu’s above.
