Chapter 674 This person should not be underestimated!
"Mr. Yan Er, I was assigned such a task by the emperor, but I am helpless! The emperor only said that there is a treasure map in Hejian Mansion and asked me to come and get it. But I have been in Hejian Mansion for so many days, and I can't do anything about it!
I didn’t see anyone handing over the treasure map, could it be that Chengdu plans to keep it privately?”
Gu Chengyu ignored the beautiful woman pouring wine for him and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.
"You really don't care about your master, let alone the emperor! This treasure map certainly belongs to the emperor. These people dare to hide the treasure map privately. It is simply an unforgivable crime."
Master Yan Er shouted in his heart that this person was a fool, the emperor actually sent such a fool here.
Little did he know that Gu Chengyu was also scolding Mr. Yan Er for being a pig-brained man who actually wanted to treat himself like a monkey.
"Master Yan Er, I heard that this treasure map was divided into two, and half of it is in your Yan Mansion."
Gu Chengyu glanced at him with a half-smile, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart why the Yan family would send such a person to find out the news.
"This is definitely a rumor! Sir, if our Yan family had obtained the treasure map, we would have presented it with both hands long ago. How could we dare to hide it privately? Don't believe those people who have no ill intentions. These people are just trying to confuse the public.
, it’s so easy to muddle through.”
"Oh? Mr. Yan Er is devoted to the court and the emperor. He really understands the righteousness. I wonder if you can tell me the whereabouts of this treasure map? When I return to Beijing, I will definitely say a few good words for you in front of the emperor."
Gu Chengyu doesn't care what Mr. Yan Er thinks, anyway, it must be the Yan family's request that Mr. Yan come to see him today.
As for the purpose of coming to him, isn't it just to make a profit?
If Mrs. Yan is not interested in the treasure map, then why come to find him? Isn't this unnecessary?
Don't really say anything about profound righteousness, that's all nonsense.
Even if there were disputes with the other two families, it was impossible for the Yan family to get involved.
"Is this? To be honest with you, I am coming here today because of the instruction of the patriarch of my family. The patriarch said that after all, you are not from Hejian Prefecture. This person is not familiar with the place, so it must be difficult to do things. This time I am here because of the instructions.
To send you a message."
Mr. Yan Er blinked his mung bean eyes with a flattering look on his face, which made Gu Chengyu tremble.
It wasn't because Mr. Yan Er's appearance was unworthy of the public, but because the look on Mr. Yan Er's face was too vulgar, but he didn't know it himself.
"Oh? Master Yan Er, please tell me quickly!" Gu Chengyu was overjoyed and listened attentively.
"I heard that half of them were given away by the Yi Mansion. This matter is not a secret. I believe Mr. Gu has heard about it. But there is still another half, and Mr. Gu probably doesn't know about it yet, right?"
Mr. Yan Er took it a step further and looked incomprehensible.
Before Gu Chengyu could ask, Mr. Yan Er couldn't wait to speak out.
"There is still half a piece in Qu's hands!"
Gu Chengyu's eyes lit up, "Master Yan Er, do you have any basis for this?"
"Although my Yan family is not involved in this matter, every move of the other two families cannot escape my Yan family's eyes. Moreover, I also learned that the Qu family has formed an alliance with others. As for the candidates for the alliance, you will definitely not be able to guess."
Gu Chengyu felt happy, it seemed that he had gained something from coming out today.
He believed that what Mr. Yan Er said was indeed true. The other two families had already formed an alliance and had become a bone that could not be chewed. If Yan wanted to intervene, he would have to find foreign help.
However, as of now, the foreign aid he is looking for is not him.
Also, it is normal for others to look down on me based on my appearance as a weak soldier and a general.
"Then Mr. Yan Er, does he know who is behind the Qu family and the Yi family?"
Gu Chengyu stared closely at Mr. Yan Er, and suddenly a pair of catkins stretched out from beside him. Gu Chengyu subconsciously moved to the left.
"What are you doing?" Mingmo stepped forward and looked at the owner of the pair of catkins with a fierce look.
"I just want to pick up food for you."
A woman whom I felt pity for had her pink face lowered and her eyebrows furrowed. She seemed to be frightened and was trembling slightly.
Gu Chengyu took a look at the woman and saw that she was wearing very skimpy clothes. She should be a woman from the land of fireworks.
He glanced at the woman's sleeves and chest, and then said with a smile: "I am allergic to powder. The smell of powder on the girl's body is too strong, and I am afraid of getting a rash."
Mr. Yan Er's expression was more solemn than before. He glanced over with inquiring eyes, not knowing what he was thinking about.
The woman looked at Mr. Yan Er with an aggrieved look, feeling a little at a loss.
"Didn't you hear what Mr. Gu said? Why don't you get out of here?" Mr. Yan Er scolded, and then he smiled again.
"Sir! This girl is ignorant. I will replace you with someone who is knowledgeable and reasonable."
Mr. Yan Er said this, but in his heart he was blaming himself for his omission just now.
He now feels that this is not a simple matter for Mr. Gu. The young man likes women and cannot withstand teasing.
The woman just now was arranged by him, and there was aphrodisiac powder hidden in her sleeves.
After he sprinkled the medicinal powder into the wine glass and let the woman tease her, he was not afraid that she would not take the bait.
But from the moment Gu Chengyu got on the boat, the attendant next to him never looked away from Gu Chengyu.
Besides, Gu Chengyu's reaction was also very sensitive. As soon as the woman came closer, Gu Chengyu quickly avoided her, which showed that he was very defensive.
Whether it was a coincidence or whether it had been noticed, Mr. Yan Er felt that he could not take any more risks.
What a pity. The eldest brother said that if he can win over Gu Chengyu, he can win over him. If he can do things for his master, he will definitely reward him heavily.
Although he had not seen Gu Chengyu's abilities before, he was so valued by his master.
But after this incident, he realized that the person who could be sent by the emperor to do things could be a drunkard.
"Hey, if we want to talk about serious things, it's best if outsiders don't get in the way."
Gu Chengyu waved his hand, and his eyes towards Mr. Yan Er were already a little cold.
The woman left the room aggrievedly and walked towards the other side.
Before leaving, he looked back at the two of them, as if he was very reluctant to leave.
But as soon as she left the house, her expression turned cold.
She walked towards the stern of the boat and saw that no one was paying attention to her, so she threw the dagger in her sleeve into the lake.
"I feel like we are old friends at the first sight today. Your Excellency is so knowledgeable and talented that I am ashamed of myself!"
"Master Yan Er is too modest. In terms of human sophistication and experience, I am far behind Master Yan Er!"
Gu Chengyu looked at the sky and saw that it was almost dusk. Although Mr. Yan Er was not very smart, he was very cautious.
After finding out this news, Gu Chengyu saw that he could no longer say anything, so he stood up and left.
"It's getting late, and I'm a little drunk. I would like to thank Mr. Yan Er for his hospitality today. Let's talk about it another day."
Gu Chengyu stood up and cupped his hands as a thank you.
"Then I won't disturb you for your rest. When I post next time, I will ask you to appreciate it."
At this time, the boat had arrived at the shore. Master Yan Er watched Gu Chengyu get off the boat, but his face darkened.
