The corner of Gu Chi's mouth twitched slightly: "Master, what are you doing?"
Shen Tang said: "Chuangsheng has a grudge against you."
Gu Chi's eyes fell leisurely on Luan Xin, Luan Xin looked back with indifferent eyes, and then they both looked at Shen Tang again.
Shen Tang: "..."
This bowl of water cannot be leveled even by the queen of the sea.
Gu Chi did not embarrass Shen Tang too much. After all, he had offended his lord, and he was the unlucky one. The corners of his lips curved into a cold smile full of murderous intent: "It's the revenge of the family!"
This answer made Luan Xin look askance.
He still remembered that when he had a showdown with Gu Chi, the latter once said, "After all, there is only one person in the whole family, even if it is completely defeated and the family is confiscated and exterminated, there is only one life." He did not think about it at the time, but he did not expect that this guy also had a rough past.
Shen Tang's eyes were cold and stern: "Revenge to destroy the family? Tao Yan?"
Gu Chi: "Yes, although he didn't do it himself."
When Gu Chi's homeland was destroyed, the former leader of the Xin Kingdom listened to the advice of the alchemists and did not kill all the royal family and nobles of the old king, or even imprison them. Instead, he spared no effort and dismissed all these people as common people. But they did not Grateful, on the contrary, under the stimulation of the reality of poverty and desolation, I thought wholeheartedly about how to restore the country and return to the life of a human being.
Forming gangs and running around secretly.
From time to time, some small commotions would cause trouble to Xin Guo.
Farmland was set on fire, government offices were attacked, and petty officials were attacked and killed...
How can these actions shake the rule of Xin State?
This is simply like having a toad on the instep and stepping on dog shit on the sole of the foot.
Disgusting doesn't kill people, but it can disgust people.
Tao Yan was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He was educated by famous teachers and had a reputation as a knight when he was young. He was the royal bloodline supported by this group of people. He was the crown prince and the future ruler of the country. For the so-called restoration of the country, he secretly contacted those who were loyal to the new dynasty. An old minister of the homeland.
Gu Chi's grandfather and father died as a result.
Except for him, no one in the family was alive.
Shen Tang sneered and said: "Since Tao Yan is the leader of this group, if he wants to kill someone, why do he need to do it himself? There is no place to look for after breaking through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort. If Tao Yan died in the Dragon Slaying Bureau, it would be best. If you are lucky enough to survive, he will be killed next!"
She said that she would kill Gu Chi's enemies equally.
Shen Tang was gearing up, but Gu Chi, the sufferer, was calm: "Don't worry, as long as Tao Shenyu is still alive."
Live well.
Shen Tang's almond-shaped eyes widened: "Why is Wang Chao so calm? You don't want to take off his head and play with it as a ball?"
Gu Chi said in a low voice: "This feud will not last for a day or two. I am afraid that my enemy has already gone to hell. Since he is still alive, Chi will always have a chance to take revenge. My lord's great cause is important, and there is no need to do it for such a mortal person. , messed up the pace."
Shen Tang was a little unhappy.
"Why was he always looking at you just now? Did you recognize him?"
If recognized, this Tao Yan would probably turn into a monster.
Gu Chi was not surprised by Tao Yan's reaction. He said, "Probably, my appearance follows that of my father, and my father was a famous person who helped him gain enlightenment. He thought it was normal for me to have a good appearance."
Three generations of Gu Chi's family have produced literary scholars, and the appearance of literary scholars is better than that of ordinary people. Generally speaking, they have picked up the advantages of both parents. When Gu Chi grows up, he will naturally look like his father, who is also familiar to Tao Yan.
The first teacher.
If you look back and ask about Gu Chi, you will immediately know that he was a fish that slipped through the net back then. Fortunately, Gu Chi is not like his grandfather and father. He has no filter for the royal family and Tao Yan. Naturally, he is not soft-hearted, let alone undefended.
It’s not that I don’t have a backer.
He looked at Shen Tang, his eyes slightly curved and smiling.
Shen Tang: "..."
Are you so happy to be recognized by your enemies?
Just as Gu Chi guessed, Tao Yan was restless when he returned. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the young scholar following Shen Tang was a good-looking man. He immediately sent his confidants out to inquire. Because Shen Tang kept a low profile, the team around her was naturally unknown to outsiders.
, it took a lot of effort to find out clearly. Half an hour later, the confidant came back: "Two scribes, one is called Luan Xin and Luan Zhengyi. They were Qiu Wenyan's confidants and later returned to Shen Youli."
Tao Yan was annoyed: "I know Luan Gongyi. What I want to know is another young man. Do you think his surname is Gu?"
The confidant replied: "Yes."
Tao Yan hurriedly grabbed his shoulders: "What's your name?"
A confidant said: "Gu Chi, whose name is Wangchao."
Tao Yan was startled. His confidant's answer was slightly different from what he had in mind. He asked, "Wang Chao? Are you sure you call him Wang Chao and not Gu Chao? Shouldn't he be called Gu Guanchao?"
He had never met Gu Chi, but he had only heard Mr. Gu complain that the eldest son in the family was ignorant at a young age. He liked the behavior of those knights all day long, and would run out of the house every now and then without seeing anyone. The concentration of Wen Xin had reached a critical moment, and he
Still not in tune.
Tao Yan curiously asked: [Did Gu Dalang pick up the characters?]
Gu Shaofu said: [No, I haven’t thought about it yet.]
Tao Yan said: "Student, there is a good word here. Since his name is "Chi", how about using the word "Guanchao"?"
Mr. Gu tasted the product and said: "Very good, very good."
The confidant said with certainty: "It's Gu Wangchao."
Tao Yan relaxed his shoulders.
Confidant: "Maybe the wording has been changed..."
This possibility is not high. Under normal circumstances, words with a literary monogram cannot be changed unless a price is paid! This price is so high that ordinary literary scholars cannot afford it.
His confidant has been following Tao Yan for many years, from escorting him to escape on the day of the fall of the country, to all these years of painstaking planning. He knows very well what Tao Yan is thinking at this moment. Most of them suspect that Gu Chi is a fish that slipped through the net back then, and the person named Gu slipped through the net.
There are not many fish.
Basically, he is definitely the son of Gu Shaofu back then.
Tao Yan said: "Go and ask more."
A confidant gave advice: "My lord, you can test it yourself."
Tao Yan pursed his lips and said nothing, pacing back and forth in the tent.
"If it is really Gu Guanchao, the son of Young Master Gu..." The confidant looked sinister, and raised his hand to make a gesture of wiping his neck, "My lord, please don't be soft-hearted this time. Cut off the roots to avoid future troubles. Gu Guanchao will not give up on his revenge to destroy the family."
Tao Yan glared angrily, and his tone became a little serious.
"It's not like you are the ones making your own decisions. Who told you to touch his family? Gu Guanchao is the teacher's only bloodline. If you kill him, wouldn't it mean that your family is cut off?" Tao Yan turned into a violent beast and stood in the tent.
Pacing back and forth, murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but he said soft words, "Furthermore, Gu Guanchao is Shen Youli's staff now, what do you want to do?"
Are the 30,000 troops and horses in Shen Tang's hands just decoration?
The confidant said: "There will always be a way."
Tao Yan asked sharply: "What can we do?"
The confidant smiled and said: "How Gu Shaofu and his son died, Gu Guanchao can also die. It doesn't matter if Shen Youli has 30,000 troops. As long as there is no evidence, it means he died without proof. Lord, this Gu Guanchao is now Shen Youli's confidant.
It can largely influence the latter's position. If the person named Gu has selfish motives and instigates Shen Youli to target us...are you still thinking about your old relationship?"
Tao Yan remained silent.
But his close friends knew his choice, just like when the Gu family and his son repeatedly declined their requests and joint plans, they also said: "...The situation is over. Although the leader of the Xin Kingdom has been a bit dim in recent years and has no heir, but the national strength of the Xin Kingdom is
It is still prosperous. Tao Jun wants to overthrow the royal court, but he is afraid that mayflies will shake the tree. If you don't go south, you can take advantage of the chaos, and there may be some chance of turning around.】
You can fish in troubled waters, but starting from scratch in a strange place involves many risks and hardships, which can be said to be very difficult.
Tao Yan and others felt that the Gu family and his son were trying to pass the buck.
Their hearts have long since abandoned their homeland, and they are even planning to inform the court of King Xin of their whereabouts in order to betray them for glory. This would inevitably lead to complications, and their whereabouts would be exposed, so they would naturally want to kill and silence them, which would also serve as a warning to other former officials of the homeland.
But Tao Yan didn't want to bear the crime of killing his master.
From setting up the situation to the final action, it was all handled by a few confidants. The Gu family and his son were unprepared and did not expect them to be so ruthless. In addition, they all took their lives with the help of a trap.
After counting the bodies, it was discovered that one person was missing.
This person is now Gu Chi.
It was getting late, so my confidants bowed and left.
After a while, a female voice sounded outside the tent.
Tao Yan's mind changed: "Why is Madam here?"
The woman stepped inside, wearing light armor. Her steps were not as light as those of a warrior, and her aura was mixed. She was just an ordinary person. Although she was an ordinary person, she had a smart mind and a bold and decisive personality. She had helped Tao Yan manage the rear area in an orderly manner for many years.
"Why is Master Lang so frowning?"
Tao Yan said: "I met an old friend today."
As he spoke, his palm covered the woman's hand on his shoulder.
"Guess who this person is?"
Of course, a woman wouldn't be able to guess it, but if Tao Yan could show such emotions, this old friend would be either trouble or big trouble.
"Master Lang doesn't tell you, how can I guess?"
Tao Yan said his name: "It's Gu Chi."
The woman's hands froze and she asked in surprise: "Which Gu Chi?"
Tao Yan whispered: "Who else could it be, Gu Chi? Gu Shaofu's son, the one who is engaged to your sister."
Woman: "Oh, it's him."
Then he asked: "Where is he now?"
Tao Yan did not hide anything: "Under Shen Youli's tent."
As for who Shen Youli is?
A woman will know after just a little inquiry.
After Shen Tang and his party returned, they were worried that Gu Chi was pretending to be strong, so they sent someone to keep an eye on him. If he showed signs of crying, they would report him immediately. When Gu Chi heard this from his bodyguard, the corner of his mouth
The nerves are offline for half a day and are out of control.
He pointed at himself: "Is Mr. Gu crying?"
"My lord's exact words."
It is impossible to cry.
Not only did he not cry, he also prepared to write Tao Yan into his storybook: "Go to the back and get the box, polish the ink, and hold the lamp."
As one of the military advisors, Gu Chi also has his own personal tent, which is not too big or too small, and he carries more salutes than ordinary people. However, except for a few changes of clothes, the rest of the space in his box is reserved for blank letters.
.
The bodyguard resisted the box.
Watching Gu Chi take out a blank scroll, put down the pen, dragons and snakes flew, and wrote more than forty pieces of bamboo in one breath. After that, it was not so smooth. Sometimes he paused to think, sometimes he picked up the pen to make corrections, and the guard just
He was helping to polish the ink. He didn't know many characters, but he still knew the first few characters on the slips.
Gu Chi lost his inspiration and turned around to catch the distracted bodyguard.
Asked: "How to read?"
The guard nodded: "I know a few of them, but I don't really understand them."
Gu Chi said in a good mood: "Just ask."
The guard lowered his voice: "The 'Five Elements of Evil' above seems to be, seems to be... seems to be..."
He "seemed to be" couldn't hold back a sentence for a long time.
Gu Chi helped him finish it.
"It seems like he's a writer of weird stories?"
The guard suppressed his blush, nodded, and lowered his head in fear, fearing that he would find out that he had been silenced by Gu Junshi Kacha.
This person with the pseudonym "Five Elements Wicked" has some abilities. I don't know when, this person's story books can be bought in the market of Longwu County. The content is novel and the three views are exploded. Normal people can't guess the direction of the story. Initially, it started from
It spread among the women's camp, and later became popular in the men's camp. However, the number was too small, and only twenty or thirty copies of a story were often copied.
For this group of people who are tortured by boring and heavy exercises every day, these strange and imaginative stories are a shot in the arm to inject color into life. There are also some unspeakable and sexy scenes in these stories, although they are not explicitly written.
, but when I read it, the scene can automatically appear in my mind, like scratching an itch in front of something, or seeing flowers through the fog, which makes people think about it and greatly enriches their spiritual life. After reading it, the spirit becomes empty...
The themes are diverse and not limited to one category.
Men and women, men and women, immortals, demons, ghosts, demons... there is even a pot of stew. People who see it at first are always stunned after reading it, and there is only one thought left in their mind -
—Ah, can you still play like this? Is it true or false?
Seeing that Gu Chi didn't respond, the personal guard couldn't help but beg.
"Master Gu... you must be strict with your words..."
There is more than just silence to silence him.
Gu Chi said: "Just be strict with your words and sharpen your ink."
The bodyguard nodded hurriedly, but his heart was agitated.
Does your lord know that Military Master Gu still has this hobby?
Shen Tang naturally knew this, because Gu Chi's wild and unrestrained contents were largely the product of being poisoned by her inner voice. After finishing his work, Gu Chi liked to write these poisonous contents into storybooks in his spare time. If it happened in the future,
He went to be a storyteller and had something to talk about. After drying the ink, Gu Chi was about to roll up the slip and put it away when someone passed it on.
"who is it?"
His soldier said: "He said he is an old friend of the military advisor."
Gu Chi paused, lowered his eyes and smiled.
"My old friend? A man?"
The soldier said: "Looking at the figure, she seems to be a woman."
Ordinarily, there should not be women in military camps, but there are still women in their robes, so they are not sure about their gender.
Gu Chi couldn't remember which of his old friends was a woman.
But I also want to meet him.
"Let people come in."
"If the visitor refuses, make an appointment to meet outside the military division camp."
After hearing this, Gu Chi got up and went to the appointment.
When the soldiers sent by Shen Tang saw this, they immediately stood up.
As a result, Gu Chi was intercepted by Bai Su, who was on duty today.
"Even if you are a military advisor, you cannot leave the camp without authorization. What's more, if you don't know whether the person coming is an enemy or a friend, it may be inappropriate to rush to the appointment. You might as well ask the general to accompany you so that you can take care of him."
Gu Chi said: "It's just a promise from a woman."
Bai Su hummed and said with a smile: "Women are not in danger? Or maybe the military advisor is worried that the general will be an eyesore and inconvenient to act?"
Gu Chi: "..."
I had no choice but to take Bai Su with me.
However, Bai Su does not show herself to others, she only protects her secretly.
Gu Chi went to the agreed place alone, and saw a thin and short figure from a distance. Although the figure was wearing a armor, he could tell at a glance that it was a woman. He was suspicious, but he couldn't remember when he had seen such a figure.
An old friend. Even if the other person turned around, he could clearly see his face through the moonlight.
