Gu Qiang looked at the person in front of her. Shen Qiangwei's temperament was completely different from before. If she was too well-behaved and sensible before, and even blindly obeyed Shen Zhongbai, she could even control his preferences now. It seemed that During the period of his absence, I was also dealing with some things in my own way.
"The Prince Consort is indeed very sharp-tongued. I thought my position was not firm before, but now it seems that I have been brought into this situation by a smarter person."
Gu Qiang did not deny it, but there were some things that she could not control. For example, why did Shen Qiangwei, like herself, be able to see things that had happened in another world? If it hadn't been for Shen Qiangwei, maybe she would have taken over The next plan will not go so smoothly.
"Since the noble concubine already knows those things, she will naturally know that if you blindly obey, you will just dig your own grave. The reason you are doing this now is not only because of me, but ultimately because of your unwillingness. "Gu Qiang looked at Shen Qiangwei and explained the matter clearly word for word. Would Shen Qiangwei have done such a thing even without herself
In essence, he only helped her to a certain extent. If it were herself, she might not be able to do this to this extent.
"Hmph, you are being used anyway. It's better to avenge yourself first. I just want to remind you that Shen Zhongbai has begun to doubt you. Before you came today, he had already summoned the imperial physician and the emperor's side. No matter how reckless a waiter is, he will never spill tea on a guest."
Although Shen Qiangwei didn't know why Gu Suran resisted the order for no reason and disappeared for such a long time, but just looking at Gu Suran's look just now, she knew that what he did to Shen Zhongbai just now was completely unreasonable. To take precautions in advance, I wanted to come out to remind you.
Gu Qiang knew that a thoughtful person like Shen Zhongbai would definitely become suspicious of him after this incident. Although he changed the human mask in advance, he was still almost discovered.
Gu Qiang nodded, "Thank you for reminding me, the common people understand."
Anyone who was not a fool would probably be able to tell from Shen Zhongbai's behavior just now that Shen Zhongbai was not just testing, but also giving a warning. It seemed that after Shen Qianshan came back, he would have something to worry about.
Liu Yue couldn't wait for a long time. Even if Gu Huaian suddenly proposed to go on the road together, he didn't think much about it. It can be seen that although the man in front of him is brave, he may have no brains. "Two adults, the people who are going on the road this time, Most of them are rough people. After all, the two adults are coming from Kyoto. The journey is long and the road is muddy. I am afraid that something might happen to the two adults on the way."
Gu Huaian knew that he still didn't want to take the two of them with him for selfish reasons, for fear that they would cut off his financial path.
Shen Qianshan smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, you are worrying too much. The two of us hope to go there together, just because we are not at ease. We are either afraid that Mr. Liu will not do things well, or we are afraid that the two of you will not know each other. When the time comes, If there is another conflict and it reaches the ears of the Emperor, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to explain.”
Shen Qianshan knew Liu Yue's character very clearly. When he listened to the conversation between the two of them outside the door that day, Shen Qianshan knew that this man was fierce and shy, a typical bully and afraid of the strong. He could see it, even for these two people. They also looked down upon the officials who came from Kyoto. If they really got the disaster relief funds, they would really not look down on them.
Although Liu Yue was in Zhenzhou, he could be regarded as being far away from the emperor, but he was still a court official after all, so he still had to be wary of the emperor.
"Master Feng is still thoughtful. If he hadn't been reminded, I might have done something bad with good intentions."
Liu Yue originally didn't want to involve the two of them, but since he had such concerns, it was safe to bring the two of them along.
Because this matter was not an important issue in the first place, Liu Yue did not discuss it with the false heavenly master, and directly arranged for the people in the post house to help Feng Yao and Gu Huaian pack their luggage and organize their men. After gathering the troops, they were ready to hit the road. Gu Huaian thought this was too ridiculous and quickly stopped Liu Yue.
"If Mr. Liu goes with the team, then who will handle all the affairs in Zhenzhou City during this period?"
Liu Yue shouldn't be so confused that he wants to hand over his affairs to a heavenly master, right
But he has seen too many such things in Zhenzhou City for so many days. No matter what the county magistrate does, it will basically not surprise Gu Huaian and Shen Qianshan.
"During the time we left, all matters in Zhenzhou City were handed over to the Heavenly Master. We would only leave for a day or two at most. After meeting the team transporting disaster relief funds, we would turn back and that's it. Nothing unexpected will happen in a day or two.”
Gu Huaian looked at the people in front of him. He didn't have many troops under his command. Most of them were yamen servants. If it was just this lineup, I believe Huang Hao's army wouldn't be too difficult to resist. However, It was because of this fact that Liu Yue chose to go on the road with them that he felt even more uneasy.
Why does this false heavenly master appear in this place? What is his purpose in constantly deceiving people and amassing wealth? In addition, Shen Qianshan once said before that he felt that this fake heavenly master gave him a very familiar feeling. Now that he thinks about putting everything together, this person becomes even more suspicious.
"Well, since Mr. Liu is ready, let's hurry up and go out." Shen Qianshan didn't seem to care. His reaction made Gu Huai'an feel much more at ease. If this matter is for the prince For me, there is nothing worth worrying about, so I have nothing to worry about.
Gu Huaian and Shen Qianshan have already agreed that they will be responsible for following Liu Yue and the team behind him. Shen Qianshan will first go back in the direction they came from, hoping to meet Huang Hao earlier and let them go in advance. He prepared himself so that he would not be ambushed by a small group like theirs if there were more people.
Huang Hao has been waiting in Zhenzhou City for a long time, and I believe he may be a little impatient. Although Shen Qianshan admires Huang Hao as a hero on the battlefield, he always feels that sooner or later, a character like his will be given to him. He has caused some disasters because he is a brother who has gone through life and death on the battlefield. He can't watch Huang Hao jump into the fire pit by himself. What's more, after coming back this time, Huang Hao will be a general on the battlefield. If Shen Zhongbai wants to If you take back the military power in his hands, you will definitely attack him, and there will be no mercy at all.
The more Shen Qianshan thought about it, the more he felt overwhelmed. He had lived in Zhenzhou City for a long time. In order to prevent Liu Yue from doubting, they didn't even send letters by flying pigeons during this period, for fear that there would be some loopholes. Huang Hao He and Gu Huaian didn't know the news over there at all. The only thing that could make him calm down now was to see his princess as soon as possible.
Shen Qianshan was always thinking of Gu Qiang, and the speed of his march became faster. The things Gu Huai'an was considering were not without basis, so they had to race against time to ensure that this fake heavenly master could not take advantage of him.
Shen Qianshan had just walked near the woods where they were stationed, and he had already seen signs that someone had set up camp. Although Huang Hao was a rough man, he could understand the truth. Huang Hao was definitely strict about the agreement they made before. Looking at them Shen Qianshan could also see the traces left behind. None of them encountered any danger, and everything was packed away calmly, which made him feel a little relieved.
Following the traces along the road, Shen Qianshan quickly found Huang Hao and Song Yu who were still resting in place.
Song Yu was getting a little tired of staying these days. He saw Shen Qianshan from a distance and hurriedly greeted him, "Master Feng, how is the situation in the factory now? Can we go in now?" After all, Song Yu is just a civil servant. It is indeed a bit difficult for him to handle these things. He has encountered so many things along the way. I am afraid that what Song Yu wants to do most now is to put down the sword quickly. , not caring about the situation in Chengzhenzhou City, just returned to the capital to resume his life.
Shen Qianshan smiled in his direction, "Master Song is still too impatient. Before the things in the factory have been investigated clearly, if the delivery person rashly sends the person who is being transported to the city, what if the emperor knows about it? If we find out what happened here, and if we place the blame, the first person to bear the brunt will be the adults."
Shen Qianshan looked around while talking, but did not see the person he wanted to see.
"General Huang, where are Zhuiyun and the very thin young man beside him?" Shen Qianshan has been most worried about Gu Qiang for so many days. He originally thought that he could see her sooner, but he didn't expect that it would be so easy. I found Huang Hao and made sure I didn't see any trace of her.
Huang Hao shook his head, "I heard from Mr. Zhuiyun that there seemed to be some situation in Kyoto that required the two of them to go back and deal with it quickly, so not long after you and Mr. Gu left, the two of them also left. Now, back to the capital."
Huang Hao has not figured out the identities of the two of them until now, but judging from the state of Feng Yao and Gu Huaian, they both seem to have great trust in these two people of unknown origin, so he has nothing to doubt. .
