Shen Zhongbai's trap was already so obvious, and Gu Qiang didn't want King Cheng to just jump into it.
"Did Chu Jun arrange this matter with Shen Zhongbai during your tryst? Didn't the prince say that Shen Zhongbai actually wanted to take this opportunity to arrange for people to go out for disaster relief? The disaster relief thing is true, so he still does this? Taking risks, after all, at this time, the DPRK and China are not very stable. Wouldn't it be a bit risky to do so?"
Gu Huaian knew that at this time, even being anxious was of no use. It would be better to sort out the whole matter first.
What kind of situation the matter is, there is definitely no news from Chu Junyou. Shen Qiangwei is now being closely watched by Chu Junyou. To be honest, the current situation has no influence on the two of them. It is considered optimistic, and it is even possible that a casual move will affect everyone's situation, but King Cheng...
Gu Qiang's current mood was indescribable. She thought everything was going smoothly, but not long after, why did trouble happen again
"Ah Liang, when you go out later, you must be more careful. Even if you fail to persuade Cheng Wang, you must not get into too much entanglement with him." Although Gu Qiang is still not sure whether Cheng Wang Wang detained Shen Qianshan, but judging from the current situation, this was the most likely, so at this time, it was impossible to let anything happen to Gusu Liang.
Not to mention that Shen Zhongbai is probably pretending to be ill. Even if he is really ill, he still has the number one figure Chu Junyou by his side, which is really dangerous.
It's all chaos.
Gusu Liang put on his night clothes. Normally, the guards in this capital would be just decorations, but the king's soldiers and horses were at the gate of the city, and the harvest was treated with extra caution. Gusu Liang's outing today did not go so smoothly. He could only take advantage of the night to head to a higher place.
Gusu Liang often went in and out of the city after the city gate was closed before, but he had never been so tired as today. The guard at the door seemed to have been opened up to the Ren and Du channels. Why did he become so cautious today? , allowing yourself to take a few steps before taking a break.
After finally getting out of the city gate, it was smooth without being discovered. I found the place where King Cheng's army was stationed, but I couldn't see King Cheng smoothly.
"Can you please tell me that I am in Gusu Liang. I hope to meet His Highness King Cheng. I have important matters to discuss with him."
The guard at the door said that no one was allowed to enter Gusu Liang, but they had already reached this place, and Gusu Liang didn't want to give up just like that.
There was a lot of commotion near the military camp, which was not a good thing. King Cheng's guards had no idea and had no choice, so they finally called King Cheng over.
King Cheng and Gusu Liang still knew each other, and his evaluation of Gusu Liang was quite fair, but Shen Qianshan had already been imprisoned by him, let alone Gusu Liang who was trying to persuade and stop him.
"Mr. Gusu, what's the matter with you coming out to see me so late at night?"
King Cheng knew that Gu Su Liang's purpose of coming here was not much different from Shen Qianshan's, but he also had his own reasons for doing this. They stood in different positions and saw different things. King Cheng now I didn't want to explain to them, so the easiest way was to find a way to control Shen Qianshan.
But now facing Gusu Liang, he couldn't do this anymore.
Shen Qianshan alone is already very important to them. Now that he has locked up Shen Qianshan, they are the only ones in the capital to support him. If at this time, he locks up Gusu Liang again Get up, things in the capital are likely to be chaotic.
This war is not a sure thing. If something happens, it will probably affect them. One more person will give them more protection.
Gusu Liang returned without success, but King Cheng didn't do anything to him. Instead, he told him that Shen Qianshan was still imprisoned in Northern Xinjiang by him, but he was very safe now, so they didn't have to worry.
They are not actually worried about Shen Qianshan, but...
It was not convenient for Gusu Liang to say anything, so he could only return to the capital alone. However, he did not expect that just when he was about to go down to the city gate, a hidden arrow was shot from somewhere. Although it may be far away, he could not shoot it. It was a critical point, but Gusu Liang was still confused by this arrow. He finally managed to stabilize his body and almost fell down.
I don’t know what is going to happen in the city. The people in Ghee don’t seem to have very good expressions. The people walking on the street also have serious faces. The atmosphere in the city suddenly becomes serious. Gusu Liang walked in from the back door of Lingyin Pavilion with his feather arrow. He pressed the arrow with his hand all the way, for fear that the blood on his body would drip down and expose Lingyin Pavilion. After finally arriving at Lingyin Pavilion, his whole body was filled with excitement. He was already extremely weak, but fortunately Zhuiyun kept watch at night, otherwise Gusu Liang might not have been able to get in at all.
"Hold on, I'll do it as soon as possible."
The arrow was not inserted very deep, but the location was really dangerous. It was not convenient to attack directly. Gusu Liang was so weak now. If he was given medicine to relieve pain, Gu Huaian had no way to determine whether the arrow was poisonous, so he only Keep him awake.
Gu Huaian wasn't very sure, but fortunately the arrow wasn't inserted too deep, so he just had to see it clearly before taking action.
"It's okay, just go ahead and do it. I'm not weak to this extent yet." Gusu Liang cracked a smile. He didn't know who was plotting against him behind his back, but fortunately the distance was relatively wide. It didn't kill him, but it seemed that someone still found him.
Gu Huaian pressed Gu Suliang's wound and pulled out the arrowhead. Sure enough, the blood at the wound had begun to turn black. Although it was not a complicated poison, it still made Gu Huaian panic.
"It's not a big problem, but after I take care of your wound, you have to stay in bed for two days to recuperate, and you can't move around for the time being."
Gu Huaian wiped the blood on his wound with gauze. No matter what kind of poison it is, you can't move it after the poison is detoxified. Gusu Liang is experienced in this, but in this situation, it is really a matter of concern. The hair moves the whole body.
Most of the news coming from the capital is bad news. Almost all of Cheng Wang's people were wiped out. Gu Huai'an was not idle either. He asked Zhui Feng and Zhui Yun to go out to find King Cheng's whereabouts. Several people It had been agreed that as long as they could find King Cheng, they would try their best to save him. Their hard work paid off. In a dark place outside the city gate, Zhui Feng and Zhui Yun found the seriously injured King Cheng.
They secretly brought King Cheng back to the secret room of Lingyin Pavilion, but everyone in Lingyin Pavilion knew that this situation could not last long.
King Cheng finally regained his consciousness and found that he had been insisting on leaving after Lingyin Pavilion. After all, he was defeated now. The whole capital was looking for his whereabouts. Gusu Liang and the others had hidden themselves in this place. Sooner or later, I won’t be able to hide it.
"I'm going to hurt you."
"If you had listened to Wang Ye and Ah Liang, you wouldn't be like this. You ended up like this all because you insisted on going your own way." Gu Huaian was changing King Cheng's dressing and didn't say anything, but Gu Qiang spoke. .
"You and I have different positions. You won't understand why I have to do this. I will leave soon and won't hurt you." King Cheng knew that Gu Qiang had always been quick to talk, so he didn't care about him. Talk like this.
"That's it. When you figure it out, it's not too late to leave. After all, you still have the princess and Xiao Xi. You have to go back safely. You have done your best regarding Mr. Jiang. Don't do it for these things in the future. Things are sad, don’t get into a fight over these things.”
Gu Qiang felt even more sorry for Xiao Xi now. King Cheng had already revealed his identity when he attacked the capital. From the current situation, it seems that all the people in Northern Xinjiang have been controlled by Shen Zhongbai. In this case, Xiao Xi may also It is already difficult to hide from these.
"Really? I'm afraid I have no choice or go back..."
Gu Qiang didn't want to think about it so much, but King Cheng's presence here was not a long-term solution after all.
When the mood was so anxious, something happened again in the capital.
An entire street in the city was on fire, just in front of Lingyin Pavilion. If it weren't for someone keeping vigil in Lingyin Pavilion at that time, I'm afraid even Lingyin Pavilion wouldn't be able to escape, but on this street However, none of the small merchants were spared. The facade of Lingyin Pavilion was also burned black.
Gusu Liang didn't have time to scold him this time, and immediately fell into the next nightmare. The fire on a street had just been brought under control, and such a big thing happened here again. It was really fatal to talk about it.
The fastest thing in the capital is rumors. This fire happened just after King Cheng's army was encircled and suppressed. There are endless rumors among the people in the market. The most talked about is whether this fire will be... The people from the palace sent someone to release it.
Who doesn’t know that there is a mixed crowd in Lingyin Pavilion. The two richest men in the capital, Gusu Lianggu and Su Ran brothers, the general Feng Yao, and the minister of rites Gu Huai’an are all famous figures in the capital. But the more such a group of people gather together, The easier it is to be targeted, isn't it
All the hawker shops in this entire street were burned to the ground, but it happened that the Lingyin Pavilion, which was the target of rumors, was only burned down. These people are all small businesses. Who is willing to take this responsibility on their own? , when rumors spread, it was an opportunity they could seize.
