Fairy, would you like to be my lackey?

Chapter 84 Who is worried?

After a brief daze, what Gu Shaozhen felt was not anger, but absurdity.

She said a little funny:
"Do you know what you are talking about?"

"Of course it's clear."

Su Jiming's tone was still unhurried and he said loudly:
"Perhaps Mr. Gu should ask yourself, do you really understand the current situation?"

Before Gu Shaozhen could speak, Su Jiming took the first step and spoke slowly:

"Bianzhou is in chaos. If you are unable to support Zhennanguan in time, you, Liumenmen, will be the first to be held accountable. Do you think the person who is most responsible will be the rebel who has not yet made clear his identity, or you who is openly responsible? A boss with lax supervision?"

There is no doubt that if there is really chaos in Bianzhou, resulting in the fall of Zhennanguan, someone will definitely have to take the blame for such a big thing.

As the party directly responsible for this matter, Six Doors cannot escape the blame.

"You need to figure something out, Director General Gu."

Su Jiming looked into Gu Shaozhen's eyes and said word by word:
"I'm not blackmailing you, but saving you."

Gu Shaozhen was silent. After a moment, he raised his head and responded:
"Why should I believe that people from the Duke's Mansion will help me?"

"In other words, why do you think you can help me?"

Compared with Su Jiming labeling her as being incompetent, it is obviously more dangerous to follow the other party's arrangements.

She couldn't be sure whether Su Jiming really meant well. Similarly, if the other party's purpose itself coincided with the rebel party hidden in the six doors, she would be completely pushed into the abyss.

If Su Jiming's purpose was just to use Liumen to catch a few spies, Gu Shaozhen might really agree to settle the matter.

Because no matter what the other party's true purpose is, it will have very little impact on her in the end. She can also use this to infer the other party's attitude, and then find out Su Jiming's true thoughts.

But what the other party wanted was to control her remotely. Who knew what Su Jiming would ask her to do?
As for what Su Jiming said about helping her find out who was rebelling against the party within the six gates, Gu Shaozhen didn't even take it to heart.

Even she herself wasn't sure of doing something. How could he, Su Jiming, be sure of it?
What's more, Su Jiming has no reason to help her clean up the six doors.

This was also the direct reason why Gu Shaozhen had doubts about Su Jiming.

Hearing this, Su Jiming couldn't help but sigh.

To Gu Shaozhen's expectation, Su Jiming didn't explain much. He just stood up and said:
"If General Secretary Gu thinks it through, he can come to me again at any time."

— Playing hard to get?
Gu Shaozhen couldn't help but frown, and instead of trying to stay, he stood up and said:
"In that case, I won't give it away."

At this time, Gu Shaozhen had also made plans to fall out with Su Jiming.

In her opinion, the current situation is not too bad.

As Su Jiming said, as long as the rebel party inside the six doors is captured within this period of time, there will be room for maneuver, and Su Jiming's threat will become empty talk.

Looking at Su Jiming's leaving figure, Gu Shaozhen couldn't help but shake his head.

Immediately I stopped thinking about those things.

Su Jiming didn't leave any cruel words like "I hope Director General Gu won't regret it".

After all, Gu Shaozhen's attitude was predictable, and Su Jiming never expected to get help from the other party when they met for the first time.

Judging from the relationship between the Duke's Mansion and the Six Gates, it is normal for Gu Shaozhen to have doubts about him.

If the other party only agreed to his request the first time, Su Jiming would suspect that Gu Shaozhen had other plans.

It is worth mentioning that his conversation with Gu Shaozhen was considered private, so except for Nie Qian and Ye Que and other people around him, not many people knew about his meeting with Gu Shaozhen.In Bianzhou, especially in this stormy situation, the help of six doors is indispensable.

It's just that the time is not yet ripe, he has to wait for Xu Rongye's next move before he can completely pull the six doors into his own camp.

Of course, this was not just for the rebellion of King Yinan, but a large part of the reason was to take precautions before they happened.

That is, for the protagonist of the original plot who is still on the road and has not yet arrived in Bianzhou.

Su Jiming pushed open the courtyard door, and the heavy mahogany door gradually revealed the scenery of the courtyard amidst the creaking sound.In the courtyard, the sycamore trees swayed, and occasionally a few incessant chirpings of birds came from them.

On one side of the courtyard, there is a row of neat eaves, and several Taishi chairs are placed under the eaves. Not far away, there is a stone rockery and a small waterfall, with a stream flowing through it, making the sound of gurgling water.

Su Jiming exhaled and finally returned to the yard, feeling a little more at ease.

Nie Qian stood aside and hesitated to speak.

Seemingly sensing her thoughts, Su Jiming tilted his head slightly and asked:
"Mr. Nie seems to have something to ask me?"

"Your Majesty is aware that I do have something I want to ask Your Majesty."

Nie Qian paused, organized her words for a moment before speaking:
"General Secretary Gu already had some intention of relenting. Why did the Crown Prince change his tune at the end? Didn't you say that the situation in Bianzhou has reached an imminent level?"

As if aware of the offense in her words, Nie Qian quickly bowed and apologized.

Su Jiming didn't care very much, he just waved his hand and said:

"It's precisely because of this that I said that to Director Gu."

Nie Qian had a puzzled expression on her face, and then she heard Su Jiming continue:

"As I said before, there will be new news in Bianzhou in a few days. Director Gu has obviously not changed her attitude. No matter how much I say, I can't change her mind."

"The only way to achieve this is to let reality break the illusion of Director General Gu. This is a necessary sacrifice."

Nie Qian couldn't help but frown, and said hesitantly:
"What if the bandits didn't do what you thought, but just withdrew?"

"Wouldn't that be better?"

Su Jiming asked rhetorically.

Nie Qian was stunned and didn't react for a while.

"Sacrifice in exchange for accelerated conditions is a helpless act in itself."

"It would be better if we could do it step by step."

After a moment of silence, Su Jiming shook his head and then said:
"Of course, some things are unavoidable."

Just as he predicted.

Three days later, bandits from the Southern Territory broke into the center of Bianzhou and searched all six gates in the city, but found nothing.

The price of food in Bianzhou has skyrocketed, and everyone is hoarding food. Even the number of people setting up stalls is decreasing day by day.

For a time, Bianzhou, which was once extremely prosperous, is now in danger.

The six doors have also become the first targets.

Gu Shaozhen was very worried.
