Now that Qu Xiaoyue had already spoken, the few people were not polite to him at all. Lu Xiaofeng reacted the fastest, jumping up to the beef soup and asked, "What's your name?"
Everyone said: "..."
Hua Manlou looked at him as if he was looking at a muddled king who didn't think about the early court: "At a time like this, you still care about these issues?"
There must be a limit to the desire for beauty!
Lu Xiaofeng knew from his disbelieving expression that he was thinking wrong, and quickly waved his hand to prove his innocence: "I ask this question for a purpose! Besides, why should I be tempted by a poisonous spider?!"
These words are really not convincing at all, Gu Wuyou thought, you really fell for her in the original book.
Seeing his serious explanation, Hua Manlou and Chu Liuxiang reluctantly accepted his statement.
Chu Liuxiang asked impatiently, "Then what do you mean?"
Lu Xiaofeng widened his eyes, and said solemnly: "What do you mean, don't you have to ask her name first when asking a question, otherwise we can still call her hello?"
Gu Wuyou... Gu Wuyou was unable to refute.
Fortunately, the beef soup was also very cooperative. Her eyes were dull and her tone was dull: "My name is Palace Master."
Lu Xiaofeng was silent for a while, and couldn't help looking at Qu Xiaoyue: "...is she really under your control?"
Qu Xiaoyue glared at him.
It wasn't that Lu Xiaofeng questioned Qu Xiaoyue's ability to use Gu, it's really the name...it's a bit of a joke!
Thinking about Gong Jiu's name, and looking at his younger sister's, Lu Xiaofeng doubted very much whether King Taiping hadn't studied for a few years at all, and then continued to eat, drink and play all the time, returning all the things he had memorized back then to his master.
Starting with Lu Xiaofeng's question, everyone asked questions one by one, and soon they understood everything that had been unclear before.
But the truth is also shocking.
The reason why Prince Pingnan and his son wanted to threaten Jin Jiuling to turn into an embroidery thief and amass a large amount of wealth was because the son of Prince Pingnan looked exactly like the son of today. plan.
And Gong Jiu originally had the idea of usurping the throne. After the little old man Wu Ming found out about the plan of Prince Pingnan and his son, he also formulated a plan of mantis catching cicadas and the oriole behind, planning to use Prince Pingnan and his son to eliminate the emperor's conspiracy first. Be vigilant, after he and his guards are completely relaxed, he will violently assassinate himself again.When the emperor dies, the world will of course be theirs.
After clarifying the matter, the six people present except for beef soup looked at each other in blank dismay, no one knew what to say for a while.
In the end, Qu Xiaoyue curled her lips: "This emperor is really tiring."
Chu Liuxiang smiled wryly, "Isn't it?"
None of the vassal kings below are safe and want to usurp the throne. Fortunately, they overheard this plan by accident. Otherwise, according to the careful planning and careful planning of Gong Jiu and others, it is really possible for him to succeed.
Although the current emperor is not very old, the weather is smooth, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and he has a tough attitude towards the outside world. It is even more impossible for him to cede land and seek peace like the previous dynasty.Although the few people present were all from the Jianghu and knew nothing about the imperial court except Huamanlou, they all had a good impression of the emperor, and of course they didn't want anything to happen to him.
Gu Wuyou said in a deep voice: "The emperor needs to know about this matter." He looked at Hua Manlou: "I wonder if fourth brother can speak in front of the emperor?"
Hua Manlou nodded and said, "Although the fourth brother is young, he has reached the third rank and has a lot of power in his hands. Because he has made great achievements in fighting the Japanese pirates before, he has a little face in front of the emperor."
Gu Wuyou pondered for a moment: "In this case, we can write this matter in a letter, and let the fourth brother help convey it."
Chu Liuxiang and Lu Xiaofeng nodded, agreeing with his thoughts.
The questions that have been haunting everyone's minds for the past few days have finally been resolved. Gu Wuyou and the others have already begun to think about their next move, while Chu Liuxiang has to think more.He was a little nervous, took a breath, and forced himself to calm down, then looked at the beef soup and asked, "What is Wu Hua doing in Prince Taiping's Mansion?"
Niu Tang said: "Come to find brother Jiu to cooperate."
What can a person from Wuhua, who has never been in the rivers and lakes, find Gong Jiu, a Taiping Prince, to cooperate with?
Chu Liuxiang was very surprised, so he asked this question, and the answer of beef soup was even more shocking.
It turns out that Wuhua was originally the son of Dongying warriors Tianfeng Shishilang and Shi Guanyin. Tianfeng Shishilang had the ambition to dominate the Central Plains martial arts, so he entrusted Wuhua to the head of Nan Shaolin with a trick before his death, and then sent another One son was handed over to the current head of the beggar gang. In this way, his two sons are the disciples of the two sects with the most extensive connections and strong appeal in the martial arts world. When they grow up in the future, it will be easier for them to realize themselves the goal of.
Tianfeng Shishilang told his elder son Wuhua of this plan before he died. Wuhua has been working hard for this goal all these years, but his younger brother Nangong Ling still knows nothing about it.
Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang had also met Nangong Ling, he was actually not bad, since he didn't know about his father and brother's crazy plan, they were not going to question him.
But no flowers...
Chu Liuxiang took a deep breath, her face that was always smiling became solemn, and said in a deep voice, "Please leave this matter to me."
Wuhua is his friend, and Chu Liuxiang really doesn't want to see this friend who has always been a bright and beautiful friend end up decapitated under the hands of others, and he doesn't want to see his always clean moon-white robes stained with blood.
——No matter how much it hurts him to fight against Wuhua himself.
Lu Xiaofeng could roughly understand Chu Liuxiang's feelings, the smile on his face fell, he raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder without saying a word.
But this was enough for Chu Liuxiang to regain her strength.
The corners of his lips curled up, he patted Lu Xiaofeng's hand lightly, smiled at him gently, indicating that he was fine, and then brought the topic back to the original place: "Now that we know that Gong Jiu and Prince Nan and his son We can't do nothing but send letters, what do you guys think?"
Several people thought for a moment, then Hua Manlou said: "Since Prince Pingnan asked Lu Xiaofeng to solve the case within half a month, we must give him an explanation."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "...That's right, if I can't find the treasures that were lost by Prince Pingnan's mansion, I don't care, Jin Jiuling will be in great trouble."
Things have been rushed recently, one after another, Lu Xiaofeng almost forgot about Pingnan Wang's half-month period, thanks to Hua Manlou still remembering.
Seeing Hua Manlou's unusual smile, Gu Wuyou tentatively said, "You want to..."
Hua Manlou blinked at him: "Actually, King Pingnan only said that Lu Xiaofeng should find the treasure, but he didn't say that we must return the things he lost with both hands."
Gu Wuyou heard the sound of the strings and knew the elegant meaning, and said knowingly: "In this case, we only need to find an opportunity to inform King Pingnan of the location of the treasure, and he will take over the rest."
They found out where the stolen goods were hidden. If King Pingnan didn't take the initiative, wouldn't it be embarrassing?
Lu Xiaofeng clapped his hands: "Isn't this dog eating dog? It doesn't matter who wins, it's not a good thing anyway."
As he spoke, he shook his head, and looked at Hua Manlou with his tongue in his mouth, the teasing in his eyes was self-evident.
You can think of such a bad plan, you are indeed my friend Lu Xiaofeng!
Hua Manlou looked at him with a smile.
Gu Wuyou squinted his eyes and looked at Lu Xiaofeng, saying very unreasonably that our family Qi Tong has always been a gentleman and dignified, and that he was able to come up with such a method was all led by you.
Lu Xiaofeng was wronged extremely.
Chu Liuxiang interrupted the undercurrent between the three of them dumbfounded: "But we can't tell King Pingnan directly where we are hiding, otherwise Gong Jiu will definitely notice something is wrong and suspect us when the time comes, let alone a dog bites a dog. It’s about to catch fire.”
Gong Jiu was not a fool, and within a few days of Lu Xiaofeng's arrival, their hiding place was exposed. At that time, Gong Jiu was not only furious, but also doubted whether they had already learned about the usurping plan.
If this is the case, there will be endless assassinations waiting for Gu Wuyou and the others.
This is not the kind of fuss that Jin Jiuling issued back then. Gu Wuyou, who has read the original book, knows how many powerful "transparent people" there are on Wu Ming's island. If they swarm up, the four of them No one can stand it.
But this news had to be brought to King Pingnan by Lu Xiaofeng.
At this time, Qu Xiaoyue, who had been wandering away from the four of them and only occasionally interjected a word, suddenly spoke.He sneered, pointed at the beef soup with the insect flute: "Did you forget her?"
These words are simply a word to wake up the dreamer. The beef soup is very conspicuous here, and it becomes dark under the lights. No one of them thought that she could be used in many other places besides spit out information. use.
Although using Gu worms to control a female class seems a bit despicable... But the hands of beef soup are not clean at all, and several people don't feel any guilt about using her, and no one raises any objections.
Lu Xiaofeng looked at the beef soup, then at Qu Xiaoyue and Tang Tianyu, rolled his eyes, and had a plan in his mind.He rubbed his carefully trimmed mustache, and the corners of his lips curled up.
……
In the morning of the second day, Lu Xiaofeng and the others finally bid farewell to Gong Jiu because they did not find any useful clues.
Gong Jiu felt helpless and regretful on the surface, but he raised his vigilance in his heart, and secretly ordered his subordinates who were good at hiding to follow them away, monitoring and reporting every move they made.
After the four of them left Taiping Prince's Mansion, they dispersed again. Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang each found their friends in the city, while Gu Wuyou and Hua Manlou went together to ask some questions of the people nearby. Some witnesses got clues from their mouths.The subordinate sent by Gong Jiu was calm and conscientious, and followed them all the time, but he didn't find anything special.
And so on until night.
None of the four people whom Niu Routang had a crush on fell asleep, and felt depressed. Hearing that Wu Ming was coming with a boat full of treasures this evening, he clamored to go out with Gong Jiu to relax.
Gong Jiu couldn't hold back her younger sister, and finally agreed with a gentle expression.
Like last time, Wu Ming handed over boxes of goods to Gong Jiu, and then went back by boat. Gong Jiu and the beef soup pressed the treasure and were about to come to the usual hiding place. Suddenly, he saw a man in a blue and white Confucian robe. The man, holding Zhang Molan's carved guqin in his arms, seemed to be taking an ordinary walk at night. Suddenly, he felt that the scenery here was satisfactory, and he was strolling in the courtyard, walking towards this side with a leisurely expression.
The man hadn't noticed this place before. For some reason, a flame suddenly rose in his heart. He stepped forward and gave a soft drink, ordering: "Who is it? Kill him!"
The man looked over, and his gentle and indifferent expression was suddenly tainted with surprise and shock.
Gong Jiudao: "..."
He looked at his younger sister with an upright and serious face, and thought deeply in his heart:
Forget it, one more thing is worse than one less thing, let's kill it.
The author has something to say: Beef Soup: ...Wait, so who do you want to kill? ? ?
------------
Chu Liuxiang: So your plan is that you play me and everyone plays?
Lu Xiaofeng (righteously): This is called the actor's hegemony!
Yang Qingfeng: I have always been gentle and courteous on weekdays, treated people sincerely, never lied to others, but now... Sigh, this fact is really difficult for others, it is not suitable for me
Gu Wuyou: ...
Gu Wuyou: ...you put down your handkerchief before you talk, yes, wipe away the tears from the corners of your eyes, Sister Lin is not suitable for you, really

Hua Manlou looked at him as if he was looking at a muddled king who didn't think about the early court: "At a time like this, you still care about these issues?"
There must be a limit to the desire for beauty!
