Chapter 361 Action
When he heard the name of Old Man Bailian, Qin Guan found it unbelievable. He didn't expect that the old man standing in front of him was actually Old Man Bailian. You have to know how famous Old Man Bailian was in Xia Kingdom.
However, there was no news about this person overnight. Many people thought that the old man Bailian was dead. Unexpectedly, the old man Bailian was not only not dead, but also hiding in Tianyang City, the capital of the Xia Kingdom.
It has not been discovered for many years. You must know that when Qin Guan was in Danyang City, he obtained a relic said to be left by the old man Bailian.
"You are really Old Man Bailian. Didn't the rumors say that you are dead?" At this time, Qin Guan was already shocked and speechless. It took a long time before the words came out of Qin Guan's mouth.
Such a sentence came out.
"I didn't expect that a little kid like you would have heard of my name. This is really rare. But if Hongxiu's father hadn't helped me, I would have been dead by now. But even if it was
In this way, my cultivation has been sealed by a restriction, so I entrust you with this." Old Man Bailian didn't expect that this little kid Qin Guan would have heard of him, but in this case, Old Man Bailian didn't either
If there is nothing to hide, just tell the truth of the matter directly.
After listening to these words, Qin Guan finally understood why Old Man Bailian agreed to help Hongxiu. It turned out that there was another reason in it. But now that there is nothing going on, Old Man Bailian has no intention of being here.
After staying for a long time, I took Qin Guan back to the previous inn.
After returning to the inn, the two of them pretended to be as if nothing had happened and went directly to rest. They both had a tacit understanding about what happened tonight and did not mention it again, as if it had never happened.
In the early morning of the next day, Qin Guan and Hongxiu got up very early because they were going to take action today. After getting up, Qin Guan asked Hongxiu to stay alone in this place, and he went out to explore the situation first, preparing to find a suitable
The time is right, and then the next step is to take action.
If he wanted to inquire about the situation, a place like a tavern, where good and bad people are mixed, would naturally be the most suitable place. So Qin Guan found a tavern to stay without saying a word, ordered a pot of wine and drank slowly here, wanting to hear about it.
Listen to see if there is any useful news for you.
"I said, it's so troublesome to get into the city. It's going to be hard for people to survive in the future." Just when Qin Guan was drinking, he heard a big man sitting at the table next to him complaining. Hearing this man say
In other words, he seemed to be someone who had just entered Tianyang City. Qin Guan couldn't help but pricked up his ears, wanting to hear if there was any news that could be useful to him.
Sure enough, before the big man could say anything else, someone said to the big man: "Brother, it seems you don't know what happened in Tianyang City today. I advise you to be careful what you say, otherwise what will happen?"
You may not even know about the person who died." After hearing this man's advice, the big man suddenly became interested and hurriedly asked the man to continue talking. But at this time, the man became more concerned about it.
They also refused to say anything.
Seeing this situation, this big man knew a little about the world, and of course he knew what this person meant, so he immediately said to the waiter: "Waiter, give me two more bottles of good wine." When this person saw that there was something wrong.
After drinking, he suddenly started to feel happy, and then he continued to speak to the big man.
"Brother, since you are new to Tianyang City, I will tell you this, but you must ensure that you don't go out and talk about this kind of thing, otherwise I will be in trouble."
Although this man decided to tell the big man what happened, he still gave the big man a warning before telling him not to talk nonsense. This big man is not stupid, and he naturally knows what to say in this situation.
, so he immediately promised that he would not go out and talk nonsense.
After getting some assurance from the big man, the man continued: "Okay, brother, as long as you say this, I will tell you what happened. You should know that the late emperor of Xia Kingdom is here."
He passed away due to illness not long ago. In fact, this matter is not that simple. According to rumors, the death of the former emperor was related to the current King Li, and the former emperor also had a daughter. The reason why the current situation is like this is because of King Li.
He hasn't ascended the throne yet, and he was worried that the late emperor's red-sleeved princess would come back to cause trouble, so that's why he did this."
This man finished all these things in one breath, and at this moment, this big man understood why the guards in Tianyang City are so strict now. It turned out to be because of this. And what this man said
Qin Guan knew about King Li. This person was Hongxiu’s imperial uncle and the person who sent an assassin to kill Hongxiu before. He didn’t expect that King Li would be so cautious, but what King Li didn’t know was that even if he was
Even though the guards were so tight, he and Hong Xiu successfully entered Tianyang City.
However, this King Li has not yet ascended the throne, which is a bit beyond Qin Guan's expectation. It stands to reason that a long time has passed since the incident with Hong Xiu's father. How do you think this King Li has
There was plenty of time to ascend the throne, but he hadn't yet. This made Qin Guan a little confused.
"Why hasn't King Li ascended the throne yet? I remember that the previous emperor has been dead for a long time?" But just when Qin Guan was confused about this matter, this big man asked about it on Qin Guan's behalf.
This made this big man's favorability instantly rise in Qin Guan's eyes.
After hearing the question asked by the big man, the man did not immediately start to answer. Instead, he poured a glass of wine and drank it before telling the big man what the reason was: "Brother, you may not know, this
The reason why King Li has not ascended the throne is not because he does not want to ascend the throne. It is said that the main reason why King Li has not ascended the throne for so long is that King Li has not obtained the royal token.
Because of the recognition from other members of the royal family, he has not been able to ascend the throne."
Qin Guan didn't expect that this person would be so well-informed and even know these things. What Qin Guan didn't expect even more was that the token would be so useful. But where is the token?
Qin Guan knew this, and he couldn't help but feel more confident in his heart.
After getting what he wanted to know, Qin Guan did not stay here anymore. Instead, he put the drink money on the table and left after doing this. What Qin Guan has to do now is to
This news was told to Hongxiu, and then the two of them discussed the next step of action.
After a while, Qin Guan returned to the inn where he lived. He immediately found Hong Xiu and told Hong Xiu the whole story. However, Hong Xiu was not as happy as Qin Guan after hearing this.
, instead he looked sad, which Qin Guan couldn't understand. In desperation, Qin Guan had no choice but to ask Hongxiu what happened. After Qin Guan's repeated questioning, Hongxiu was willing to tell the matter.
come out.
"Qin Guan, you don't know something. This matter is not that simple. Although my uncle did not get the token and could not successfully ascend the throne, I am sure it is not just because of this simple reason. If I am not wrong, at this time we
Other people in the royal family also have evil intentions, and there are many people who are looking at the throne."
After Hongxiu's analysis, Qin Guan realized how serious the problem was now. If it were the previous situation, it would be easy to say that their enemy would only be King Li. But now it looks like the enemy is not only
It's just that there is only King Li, but it is a real royal family, because the current situation has reached that whoever gets the token is qualified to get the throne, and Hongxiu's only advantage is that the token is in Hongxiu's hand.
"Hongxiu, what do you think we should do now? If these people all join forces, there will be no way for us to get close to the palace." Qin Guan understood the current situation after listening to Hongxiu's analysis.
The most important thing now is to see what Hong Xiu will do next. Because Hong Xiu has a royal token in his hand, he can easily become the target of public criticism.
"Before finding the royal family's token, these royal family members will not join forces. They are not that stupid. They will make wedding dresses for other people before the matter is determined. But we need to go out in the evening.
Go find my other imperial uncle." Regarding Qin Guan's problem, Hong Xiu quickly thought of a solution, but did not say it directly, but asked Qin Guan to follow him to find someone.
Seeing Hong Xiu's confident look, although he didn't understand why Hong Xiu did this, Qin Guan believed that Hong Xiu had his own reasons for doing this, so he agreed without saying anything more. Seeing Qin Guan
After agreeing, Hongxiu left to prepare things without saying anything else.
The night time came quickly, and the two of them walked towards the outside of the inn as agreed. With Hongxiu leading the way, the two of them soon arrived at their destination.
