Chapter 44

"I heard that the day before yesterday, King Duan had an argument with the Queen in front of the Eastern Palace and Concubine Ding'an. He was quite threatening, and even wanted to force him to retreat from the Central Palace. In the next day, King Duan, who is on the same path, will attack him, and the Queen will call the cabinet. Everyone in the Five Mansions, the Six Ministries, and all the members of the Six Ministries strongly blame King Duan for roaring at Yu Nei for arrogating power and being disrespectful, when the time comes, will King Duan still refuse to give in?" Xu Wenchang replied with a smile.

Gu Liangfen suddenly sneered when he heard this, "I understand, if Wang Duan and Zhonggong fight openly, Brother Xu, you can reap the benefits."

Xu Wen jumped up, "What profit do I take?"

Gu Liangfen said: "Brother Xu, I didn't ask you for help when something happened to my family Yan this time. You came to the door yourself, did you want to help me, or threatened me?"

Xu Wenchang's face changed greatly, "Why can't I understand Brother Gu's words?"

"The bigger the trouble, the harder it is to settle it," Gu Liangfen said. "If the trouble is so great that King Duan can't step down, he'll kill him. It doesn't make sense for the Central Palace to pre-government. Can it be stronger than King Duan?"

Xu Wenchang's face was pale and uncertain, "Aren't you afraid to find out about old Mr. Fu this time?"

"What's wrong with Uncle Fu? Why don't I know about it? Even if there is, who would take the opportunity to turn over Uncle Fu's past?" Gu Liangfen stared firmly into Xu Wenchang's eyes, "Brother Xu, you?"

"You!" Xu Wenchang lost his composure.

"I know that Brother Xu's things want to come to Beijing smoothly. I can mediate with Mr. Wu on this matter." Gu Liangfen took a few steps, "But Brother Xu played this trick today, It's really unkind! If Uncle Fu's matter becomes unresolvable, maybe I, barefoot, will go all out and do something that I would never dare to think about, and Brother Xu will be implicated."

Xu Wenchang's face darkened, "Then Brother Gu agreed to my business?"

Gu Liangfen smiled and said: "Of course. But the premise is Uncle Fu's business. Don't come to add a handful of firewood to me, otherwise maybe we can't be with the light, but we will be wiped out together."

"Think about it carefully. The Zhonggong has already broken up with King Duan. If King Duan doesn't back down and the Zhonggong only acts like a show, there is no way for Mr. Fu to get away!" Xu Wenchang said without confidence.

Gu Liangfen deliberately sighed, and said softly: "I know, isn't it the last step yet? Brother Xu is already extremely rich, what can he hope for? Only if Quan Wanjie is a perfect person, it will last forever."

The conversation between the two almost collapsed, Xu Wenchang came out with a gloomy face, and Gu Liangfen didn't see him off.When Xu Wenchang walked away, Gu Liangfen said coldly: "Your Excellency, have you heard enough?" After speaking, he flew out and slashed his backhand with a sword.

Cheng Yingzhou quickly dodges, he has seen Si Qing make a move, he thought that their brothers and sisters were not too similar in skill, but he didn't expect Gu Liangfen to change his moves very quickly, reversing the blade, and unexpectedly surrounded Cheng Yingzhou.Cheng Yingzhou didn't want to make a move at first, so he drew his sword and slashed his wrist back. The two of them flew from the second floor to the yard together.

This alarmed the waiters in the restaurant, Gu Liangfen waved his sleeves, "It has nothing to do with you, let's greet the guests in front." Turning around after speaking, he met Shang Cheng Yingzhou's eyes, and suddenly realized that they looked familiar, "You are not...not that……"

Cheng Yingzhou accepted the sword and said, "Cheng Yingzhou."

Gu Liangfen hastily withdrew his sword, "I remembered, I saw you at the alley of my house." After finishing speaking, he cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry! I'm really rude!"

Cheng Yingzhou replied, "Your Highness asked me to come. It's not convenient in front of Mr. Wu. Your Highness wants to ask..."

"My wife settled in Yongtong and didn't return to the Imperial Capital. There should be no problem. I will definitely be more careful." Gu Liangfen replied solemnly.

Cheng Yingzhou nodded, thought for a while and said, "I'm being impolite and listened to a few more words, so I take the liberty to ask Mr. Gu, is there any festival between you and Xu Shangshu?"

Gu Liangfen said: "There is really no festival. I am a commoner, how can I feel that I have any festival with him, Xu Dasinong? But you heard it too, he came to threaten me."

Cheng Yingzhou tentatively asked softly, "Does he know about Mr. Fu's past?"

Gu Liangfen cautiously said: "I think he may only have a suspicious shadow, so he came to threaten me and test me by the way." After he finished speaking, he suddenly looked at Cheng Yingzhou, "But I really want to expose him, otherwise he will follow like a fly. Me. But I dare not, for fear that he will bite back."

Cheng Yingzhou asked: "He smuggled...?"

Gu Liangfen wondered, "You already know?"

Cheng Yingzhou smiled, "Your Highness knows it well. If he doesn't have the proof of Mr. Fu, Mr. Gu can ignore him."

Gu Liangfen nodded, and asked again: "Is there anything else for Commander Cheng?"

Cheng Yingzhou hesitated for a moment and said: "Just now Xu Shangshu said that the empress and King Duan tore their faces..."

"He said Du Silian and Du Hanchang told me before," Gu Liangfen said, "It's too risky to do so, what if Prince Duan becomes suspicious?"

Cheng Yingzhou said: "The empress and Prince Duan are constantly at odds. There is one thing that I want to do with Mr. Gu. If not, I'm afraid Her Royal Highness will be unable to move an inch."

Gu Liangfen looked at Cheng Yingzhou, and suddenly frowned and asked, "General Cheng helps to hide it from her, and I will replace him quietly?"

Cheng Yingzhou said: "Exactly! As long as Mr. Fu is out of trouble, the queen can take a step back first, and King Duan will have no reason to force the queen to resign."

Gu Liangfen shook his head, "I don't think you can hide it from her. Besides, it's really..."

"Mr. Gu!" Cheng Yingzhou interrupted, "As long as the person is rescued, the matter will be settled. It is enough to save the person for a while."

"But you..."

"Mr. Gu doesn't want to save someone?"

Gu Liangfen thought for a while, but still insisted: "Sorry, I want to save people, but I can't do that."

Cheng Yingzhou asked: "Why?"

"Uncle Fu is kind to our brothers and sisters, so we want to save him, but this matter has nothing to do with others. General Cheng can't take this responsibility." Gu Liangfen replied.

Cheng Yingzhou was helpless, and sighed: "Mr. Gu, think about it, you can either rescue people now to solve the predicament, or wait for King Duan to force the Queen down. Will King Duan really let go if something happens to the Queen? I can't see it." At that time, Mr. Fu will also have an accident. Even if I don’t take this responsibility, I will step back ten thousand steps. If something happens to the queen, how should I deal with it? Mr. Gu may not know how many people are behind the queen! "

Gu Liangfen was slightly taken aback when he heard this, thought for a while and said: "I still think that even if I agree, it will be very difficult for you to hide it from her."

Cheng Yingzhou said: "I will try my best, and Mr. Gu will also try his best, how about it?"

Gu Liangfen thought for a while, and seemed to have made up his mind, so he asked, "When?"

Cheng Yingzhou relaxed, "Tonight."

Gu Liangfen didn't say anything after hearing this, and bowed deeply.

After seeing off Cheng Yingzhou, Gu Liangfen came to Wu Zhai to look for Wu Zhenying and told him about saving lives tonight.

Wu Zhenying said: "You didn't let me do it earlier because you were worried that your sister would find out and stop me. Now this Cheng Yingzhou can really hide it from your sister?"

"I don't know," Gu Liangfen said, "but it sounds like Siqing is in a bad situation, otherwise Xu Donghai and Cheng Yingzhou couldn't both come to him."

"Xu Wenchang is looking for you?" Wu Zhenying asked.

Gu Liangfen said: "That's right. He came to threaten me and asked me to help him transport those things."

Wu Zhenying asked: "What did the surname Xu threaten you with? What kind of handle did he get on the property under your name? Or did he know about your Uncle Fu?"

"Neither, he should only know a suspicion about Uncle Fu, there is no evidence. If he dares to expose Uncle Fu now, I bet Siqing will kill him first. He even said that Xining Siqing was 18 years old Since he was in the middle palace, he has always lived in a high position and did not care about politics—then why does Jingwei listen to Si Qing like this? If he insists on dying, I will keep the account of how much money I gave him earlier. If he dares to turn his face, At worst, we die together." Gu Liangfen replied.

Wu Zhenying said: "That's it. You are just afraid of offending him, don't be afraid of offending him, let him be afraid of you. If he wants to use you, he will come to you."

Gu Liangfen said: "Let's ignore Xu Wenchang, tonight..."

Wu Zhenying said: "I will go with you tonight."

"No," Gu Liangfen shook his head again and again, "I'll go by myself. In case, I mean, in case something happens to me, maybe I have to rely on you to rescue me. If we go together, what should we do if we're all folded inside?"

Wu Zhenying pondered, "I'll go."

"But in case something happens, I don't have as much face as you, so I can't win you." Gu Liangfen said anxiously, "You'd better go and clean up the supporting house, and I'll do it myself."

Wu Zhenying sighed, "Then be careful yourself!"

Cheng Yingzhou was afraid that Siqing would see his flaws, so he thought about it carefully, and then repeatedly asked his subordinates to report to him as soon as possible, and then went to Nannei to see Siqing.

After listening to Gu Liangfen's words he relayed, Si Qing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is the best way. I'm afraid that Prince Duan's Mansion will be mobilized in full force these days. I was afraid that Shangyang County would follow my brother back to Beijing and be targeted by someone with a heart."

After finishing speaking, she asked softly, "Did he say anything else?"

Cheng Yingzhou told about Xu Wenchang's meeting with Gu Liangfen. Siqing sneered and said, "Don't pay attention to Xu Wenchang who went to the fire pit. I mean, did he mention his plans?"

Cheng Yingzhou shook his head again and again, and Siqing asked again: "He didn't take the initiative to mention it, did you?"

Cheng Yingzhou was startled when he heard this, and raised his head slightly, only to see Siqing standing up behind Jinping and taking two steps, then asked with a smile, "If you mentioned it, you'd better tell the truth."

Cheng Yingzhou was ready to deny it to death, but he shook his head again and again, but he didn't dare to speak, for fear that his words would reveal flaws.

Siqing said lightly: "Old Cheng, your courage is getting bigger and bigger."
