Needless to say, Song Bocheng was an envoy of the Heavenly Eclipse.
Gong Yunhong himself is also a member of the powerful family, and is also a subordinate of the Hou family. He has followed Mr. Hou, a treacherous and powerful man, for many years and knows many secrets. Now if she wants to temporarily find someone who understands the Yanzhou family better than her, there may not be a suitable candidate.
With her knowledge of the Yanzhou family and Song Bocheng's certain methods, leaving this matter to them would indeed be more effective than Lu Li blindly investigating on his own.
At the very least, the current Yanzhou family is very wary of him. Even if they really come to visit him one by one, they may not be able to get useful information.
On the contrary, Gong Yunhong and Song Bocheng are the candidates for the aristocratic family attending the banquet tonight. At the same time, they are also backed by the Gong family and the Song family. In terms of innate conditions, the two of them join forces to explore the details of the aristocratic family, and they have something that no one else has. Advantage.
Of course, this was not Lu Li's main idea.
More importantly, Lu Li also needed to test Gong Yunhong's thoughts. This woman has a deep character. It's hard to tell whether she's a friend or an enemy now. It's better to take this opportunity to arrange for her to do something.
"If you encounter trouble that you can't solve, Grandmaster Lei will help."
"Right, Grandmaster Lei?"
Having said this, Lu Li glanced at Lei Mu with a smile.
Only then did Lei Mu know why Lu Li brought him here.
It turned out that he was still a thug.
But somehow, after hearing what Lu Li said, Lei Mu felt a lot more at ease, and said with a wry smile: "Of course it's all up to Manager Lu's arrangement."
Song Bocheng was not happy and said: "Manager Lu, it's okay if you want me to help you find out the details of the Yanzhou family, but can you not arrange me with this crazy woman?"
He glanced at Gong Yunhong and said helplessly: "I always feel nervous when working with her. There is no guarantee that I won't be betrayed."
"Song Bocheng, how long will you continue to perform?" Gong Yunhong was not angry, he just smiled and said: "You looked ugly before, maybe there was some problem with Tianbu's intelligence network, right? Now you are more anxious than anyone else. Stop pretending to be so nonchalant.”
"Actually, you know very well that if Tianbu's intelligence network is paralyzed, you will be unable to move forward in Yanzhou. Without me, this investigation would not be possible at all."
Gong Yunhong is very smart.
Or it should be said that she knows her own value very well and understands her position at this moment.
However, Lu Li still looked at her slightly surprised. He didn't expect that she could guess so many things just by seeing the change in Song Bocheng's expression. If it weren't for the unpredictable nature of her enemies and friends, Lu Li would have really wanted to arrange some other things for her to do.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
Song Bocheng's face turned dark, but he did not acknowledge anything Gong Yunhong said.
Gong Yunhong said indifferently: "It's up to you. As long as you don't hold back, I don't care even if you want to keep pretending."
As she said this, she looked at Lu Li and said, "After all, this is the first thing that Mr. Lu told me. If it goes wrong, Mr. Lu will probably have some opinions about me even if he doesn't say it."
Lu Li smiled, neither admitting nor denying.
"But I'll have to say something ugly first." At this moment, Gong Yunhong changed the topic and said calmly: "Manager Lu promised to solve the Gong family inheritance problem for me earlier. I hope General Manager Lu can remember it."
She did not immediately ask Lu Li to resolve the Gong family inheritance issue. This was both a concession and a measured choice.
"I can prove my value to you, but don't forget that if you have no value to me, I will betray you at any time just like I betrayed the Marquis."
After that, she walked out of the palace without waiting for Lu Li's answer.
When Song Bocheng saw this, he said in shock: "Where are you going?"
"Of course it's work."
Gong Yunhong stopped and turned around, looked at him and said, "Do you want to continue waiting?"
Song Bocheng hesitated for a moment, then looked at Lu Li.
It seemed that he was seeking Lu Li's opinion.
When Lu Li saw this, he nodded slightly, indicating that it was okay.
Only then did Song Bocheng confirm that his fate had been decided. He sighed helplessly and left behind Gong Yunhong.
After the two left, Lei Mu hesitated and said, "Are you testing her?"
"It's not entirely a temptation, just like what she said. Everything has value here. As long as we have the same interests, I can cooperate with anyone."
"She needed to prove her worth to me, and I needed to prove my worth to her."
Lu Li smiled and said, "Grandmaster Lei, do you feel more at ease now?"
Lei Mu was startled when he heard this, but then nodded with a strange expression on his face.
Compared to the beginning, he feels much more settled now.
Especially after Lu Li said the word 'value', he felt that since everyone can show value, why can't he
A strong person who has stepped into the top level is a very valuable existence wherever he is placed.
In fact, Lei Mu just wanted to make a mistake.
Especially before, he personally participated in the battle to kill the ancestor of the Qin family.
Even top grandmasters like the ancestor of the Qin family could be killed, causing the 'world view' he had established over the years to instantly collapse, and he felt that top grandmasters were nothing more than this.
But in fact, even if the top masters hidden in the dark appear one by one, strong men of this level still represent the pinnacle of invincible existence in the True Martial Realm.
The previous death of the ancestor of the Qin family gave Lei Mu a sense of precariousness, a feeling that could not be reversed for a while.
However, after Lu Li arranged some things for him, Lei Mu felt much better.
This is 'value'.
When you realize that you still have value, that sense of panic will naturally cease to exist.
"Prince Yan's Mansion is different from other places. His Highness Prince Yan doesn't care about many things and will not interfere too much. Here, your actions will not be restricted by anyone."
"If I say this, might Grandmaster Lei understand?"
Lei Mu was still worried, but when he heard Lu Li's words, he suddenly raised his head with an expression of disbelief.
Lu Li laughed, waved his hand and left the palace without explaining much.
Lei Mu was left alone standing there, still a little shocked.
There is nothing wrong with this statement that it will not be restricted by anyone.
But Lu Li mentioned King Yan.
Who is King Yan
One of the nine kings of the Holy Kingdom, the master of Yanzhou!
With someone like her, she should be in control of everything, even if she is disabled.
Lu Li said such treacherous words, Lei Mu suddenly felt cold sweat streaming down his face, and murmured: "He is indeed a lunatic."
…
After leaving the palace, Lu Li went directly back to Prince Yan's Mansion. He walked through the alleys in the palace with ease and found the small courtyard where Mu Hongxiu lived.
Before entering, Lu Li looked up and saw Ge Xinyue coming out.
However, Lu Li didn't find it strange. After all, he personally modified the cloud formation near the small courtyard. Whenever anyone approaches, it will be sensed within it.
"came back?"
Ge Xinyue glanced at Lu Li lightly, and her tone did not waver.
But Lu Li knew that she was angry.
It's not that she was angry. Lu Li also knew that he was indeed taking a risk this time. Going to Bazhou alone to stir up the situation and force Chen Yang to show up, although it was not an impromptu move, the timing was too sensitive. If Ge Xinyue hadn't called Cao Hanbing, Rentu, and Senluo to support him, his current situation would have been hard to say.
"I'm back." Knowing that he was wrong, Lu Li also smiled and apologized: "Thanks to Sister Ge for saving her life, otherwise it would be really hard to tell."
"You were too impulsive this time."
When Ge Xinyue saw him like this, the words of reproach she had planned to say suddenly found it difficult to speak.
In the end, he could only sigh and said: "If Ren Tu and Sen Luo hadn't taken action, how would you have gotten through this time? Chen Yang is extremely calculating and powerful, far beyond what those people you met before can match. What if something goes wrong? What happened, you... didn't think about the consequences?"
When Lu Li heard this, he smiled and said, "Of course I've thought about the consequences, but actually... I'm also very scared."
"However, if you only think about the consequences, look forward and backward all day long, and worry, you will not be able to accomplish anything in the end."
Ge Xinyue glared at Lu Li nonchalantly, "You always have your reasons, but you never thought that once you die in Bazhou..."
At this point, Ge Xinyue suddenly couldn't speak anymore, sighed and shook her head.
Finally he said: "Your Highness is still waiting for you, go in."
