After the rebirth, I became the darling of the tyrant

When Gu Chen came out of the house, Jiang Chong and several other Longxiang Guard soldiers were guarding the door.When they saw him coming out, they all let out a sigh of relief.

"How are you?" Jiang Chong immediately went forward, trying to check Gu Chen's whole body with a worried face, "He didn't do anything to you, did he?"

Gu Chen's heart warmed up, and he smiled and patted his hand away: "I'm fine."

Jiang Chong is also concerned about this, and Qi Qian is already an old man in his seventies, what can he do with a young man in his weak years?

Perhaps Jiang Chong himself was aware of this, and immediately withdrew his hand in embarrassment, scratching his head: "That... that, have you got the way they pass the message?"

"Got it. Got a pen and paper?"

Gu Chen motioned to a Long Xiangwei next to him to bring him a pen and paper.He found a flat ground, bit the nib of the pen, dipped it in the ink and began to write, but his handwriting was not his usual, but thinner and straighter, with more angular strokes.Jiang Chong looked at it for a while, and then asked a little blankly: "You don't usually write like this?"

"Yes." Gu Chen smiled, "This is Mr.'s handwriting."

"Qi, Master Qi!?" Jiang Chong was stunned, "Can you still imitate handwriting?"

"I can only imitate people I know well." Gu Chen said, "He used to be my husband, and I often read his copybooks when I was studying and practicing calligraphy... Over time, I learned it."

Gu Chen and Xiao Tingshen agreed at the beginning that after catching the traitor, they would use the contact information of the other party and Wang Yongkejun, and then send a false information. Guo Xiangping went straight to Jiyang and attacked Wang Yongke from behind; then Gu Chen would write this false information in reverse: Your Majesty ordered to increase troops to Xiangping.This made Wang Yongke concentrate his forces to attack Xiangping, leaving nothing behind.

This disinformation is crucial.

Xiao Tingshen has ordered people to send troops to Jiyang. Once the false information is not sent to Wang Yongke, or if it is sent to him but is not enough to win his trust, it will lead to the failure of the next Jiyang operation, and then endanger Xiangping.Gu Chen must be impeccable, from handwriting to contact information, everything can be wrong.

He finished writing the false information in Qi Qian's handwriting and tone, checked it back and forth several times, sealed it with wax, and handed it to Jiang Chong.He solemnly said: "Send a safe person to Xiangping to spread the news, but you must not open and read this information, otherwise the sealing wax will be damaged, even if it is repaired again, Wang Yongke will definitely be able to see the clue."

There was Long Xiangwei next to him who had been looking at Qi Qian suspiciously since he knew that he was Teacher Gu Chen, and finally couldn't help but said, "Then how can we know what you sent? What if it's a helper?" Where are the rebels?"

Before Gu Chen could open his mouth, Jiang Chong had already glared at him, and said in a bad tone, "What are you talking about!? You little brat, you need to clean up?"

"No, commander..."

"It's okay." Gu Chen smiled, turned to Jiang Chongdao, "Don't choose someone who doesn't believe me to deliver the news."

"Hey, you—"

That Long Xiangwei seemed to want to speak, but Gu Chen ignored him and turned to leave.

A group of people escorted Qi Qian and returned to Shenjing a day later.

It was night when they arrived in Shenjing, Gu Chen signaled Jiang Chong to escort Qi Qian to wait outside the palace first, and went in to find Xiao Tingshen to report back.The eunuch Wei Dequan was still guarding the gate of Ganquan Palace. Seeing Gu Chen approaching, he smiled kindly at Gu Chen.

"Master Gu is back."

Gu Chen also nodded to him, and said with a smile, "Is Your Majesty in the study?"

"Yes." Wei Dequan said, "Your Majesty is discussing matters with all the adults in the study."

"That's my bad luck."

"Your Majesty has ordered you to go to the study as soon as Mr. Gu comes back." Wei Dequan said, "Please, Mr. Gu."

He took a wrong step backwards and signaled Gu Chen to go in.Gu Chen walked into Ganquan Palace, and after pushing open the door of the study, he couldn't help being startled—except for Qi Qian, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, all the officials from the six ministries were present.Xiao Tingshen was sitting behind the desk with a booklet in his hand, almost as soon as Gu Chen came in, his eyes fell on Gu Chen.

Gu Chen stepped forward and saluted: "The minister is ordered by His Majesty to arrest the traitor, and the result has already been achieved."

As soon as the words fell, the officials from the six ministries started whispering.Before Xiao Tingshen could speak, Cai Min, the official minister, said, "Oh? So fast? Then who is this traitor?"

Gu Chen paused for a moment before saying, "It's Qi Qian, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. I have already brought him back to Beijing, and it's outside the hall. At the same time... I also got Qi Qian and the rebels by order of His Majesty. The method has already sent out the false information."

There was another commotion among the crowd, and a few eyes immediately turned to Gu Chen, full of scrutiny and suspicion... After a while, Cai Min, the servant of the official department, said slowly: "Master Gu said that the information sent out was false information, but there is no one here. Can anyone prove it?"

Gu Chen paused again before saying: "...to ensure that the secrets are not leaked, no second person will see the contents of the information from writing to sending."

Even Jiang Chong just glanced roughly, and didn't see what Gu Chen wrote.

"Then how can Mr. Gu guarantee that what he sent is false information?" Cai Min spoke very slowly, "If what Mr. Gu sends is His Majesty's real will, wouldn't Xiangping be in danger?"

Gu Chen glanced at him, and smiled with a very good temper: "What does Master Cai mean?"

"Your Majesty." Cai Min turned to Xiao Tingshen and said, "As we all know, Master Gu was once Qi Qian's student. When Master Gu was studying in Hongwen Pavilion, Qi Qian once said that Master Gu was one of his most proud students." Cai Min turned to Gu Chen again, with a slight irony in his tone: "It is said in the court that Mr. Gu is kind-hearted, and he cares about the old love the most... Then Mr. Gu, who is so nostalgic, will be merciless to his former teacher, really More than I expected."

Gu Chen was still not angry, but looked at him with interest: "Then according to Master Cai, I am suspected of collaborating with the enemy just like Qi Qian? I wonder how Master Cai thinks he should deal with me?"

"I think--"

"enough."

Xiao Ting's deep and deep voice sounded abruptly, cutting off Cai Min's words abruptly.Instead of being furious as usual, he raised his eyes, and his deep eyes swept over Cai Min like lightning, with a chill that penetrated to the marrow of his bones.He casually threw the booklet in his hand on the desk, and said coldly: "Cai Qing means that, like Gu Qing, I am also suspected of collaborating with the enemy?"

"I dare not!"

Cai Min broke out in cold sweat, and immediately knelt down on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly: "Chen, Chen didn't mean that..."

"No?" Xiao Ting curled his lips coldly, "Gu Qing used to be Qi Qian's student, and I also studied in Hongwen Pavilion and was taught by Qi Qian. According to Cai Qing, since Gu Qing can cooperate with the enemy, then Aren't I also suspected of collaborating with the enemy?"

He paused and narrowed his eyes dangerously: "Cai Qing, what are you going to do with me?"

"I don't dare, I don't dare!" Cai Min kowtowed like garlic, and the cold sweat on his back soaked the official uniform in a short while.It never occurred to him that he just wanted to cause trouble for Gu Chen, and he unconsciously got involved with His Majesty... Isn't this courting death! ?

He kowtowed there, and Xiao Tingshen just looked at him without saying a word, neither telling him to stop nor opening his mouth to speak.After a while, Cai Min's forehead was red, and his forehead was also scratched, and his blood was dotted all over the ground.Xiao Tingshen still had no intention of getting him up, Gu Chen couldn't help coughing lightly.

Xiao Ting took a deep look at him, and finally said: "Okay, get up. Next time, don't kowtow in my study. If the floor is dirty, you have to ask someone to wipe it."

Cai Min's voice trembled: "Yes... yes, I understand. Next time... next time, I will definitely go outside..."

Xiao Tingshen raised his hand to stop him, looked around the six officials, and said coldly: "Does anyone still want to question Gu Qing?"

All the ministers lowered their heads one after another, and there was a voice of "I dare not".Your Majesty has made it clear that he wants to defend Gu Chen and vent his anger on him. Who would dare to say no?

"No more?" Xiao Tingshen deliberately paused for a moment, seeing that no one dared to speak anymore, he was satisfied: "If there is nothing to do, step back. Gu Qing, you stay."

All the officials left, leaving only Gu Chen standing in the study.Just as Wei Dequan ordered two young eunuchs to come in and wipe off the blood on the ground, Gu Chen watched intently.

Xiao Tingshen got up from behind the case and walked in front of him, saw him staring at the spot of blood on the ground, so he said, "You think I'm cruel?"

Gu Chen was startled, then shook his head.

Xiao Tingshen was a little surprised by his attitude - in the past, Gu Chen must have been dissuading and preaching to him, why today...?

"I have been wronged for no reason, so it is impossible for me to be angry." Gu Chen said in a low voice, "I am not a saint."

Xiao Tingshen: "Then you stopped me just now?"

"If you knock him down again, he'll probably be knocked to death here." Gu Chen sighed, "I'm angry, but he doesn't deserve to die."

"I won't let him die here." Xiao Tingshen said, "If you want to die, you have to go out and die."

Gu Chen raised his head and glanced at him.The smoldering eyes seemed to contain water vapor, like a graceful ink painting, outlined from the end of the eyes.Even though he knew that he had no other intentions, this glance fell into Xiao Tingshen's eyes, but there was something seductive inexplicably, which made him unable to help his heart move, and his mouth suddenly felt a little dry.

However, Gu Chen didn't notice his reaction, curled his lips slightly, and smiled warmly: "Your Majesty defends the minister today, the minister..." He paused, a blush quietly stained behind his ears, "... ...Your Majesty is still very moved. It's just that His Majesty is too...too blunt."

Now it's not just the soldiers who came back from Hubei, it's not just Long Xiangwei, it's not just Wei Dequan and other palace officials, even the six officials must know that he is now Xiao Tingshen's celebrity and favorite right...

Let's hope they don't think of going anywhere else...

"I just want them to know." Xiao Tingshen's voice was a little soft, almost a whisper, "No one can touch you in front of me."
