Chapter 54 Conspiracy on a boat on the lake

The boat approached, Gongsun Lian got on the boat, Niu Dazhuang followed closely, but the boat sank a lot.

Gongsun Lian pointed to the bow of the boat and said to Niu Dazhuang, who was looking around, "Go row a boat."

"Oh!" Niu Dazhuang was reluctant and went to row the boat. He couldn't hear what the military advisor and Aunt Li said!

Li Xiaoyue pursed her lips and smiled, "Dazhuang, Mr. Gongsun and I have something to discuss. Thank you for your hard work. There is delicious food in the food box. I will bring it with you later."

"It's not hard." When Niu Dazhuang heard this, he was not curious about what the military advisor and Aunt Li were talking about, but thought about what delicious food Aunt Li had brought him.

The boat rowed towards the center of the lake. Li Xiaoyue, wearing a power fence on her head, and Gongsun Lian each had a fishing rod, sitting on the other end of the boat.

"Ms. Li, what's the important matter?" Gongsun Lian was very curious. Is there anything worthy of Mrs. Li's efforts to mobilize so many people?
Based on his understanding of Li Xiaoyue, he definitely did not have romantic feelings for him.

Li Xiaoyue stared at the place where the fishing line entered the water, and then asked softly: "Mr. Gongsun, are you a loyal and good person?"

This question immediately gave Gongsun Lian a slap in the face. This question is very difficult!

But it also indicates that what Li Xiaoyue is going to say is of great importance.

I don’t know if this is Li Xiaoyue’s idea or Li Qianwang’s idea?

"Ms. Li, I don't dare to claim to be a good person, but I have never harmed one of my own. I have been with General Huo since I was a boy, and I have always been dedicated to protecting my family and country and protecting the people."

"Even if I sometimes do some cunning things, it is only to better fulfill my heart's wish, so I should be considered a loyal and good person. I am just curious, why does Mrs. Li ask like this?"

Li Xiaoyue said in a long voice, "Then you must have heard of Qin Zheng, Qin Yushi. You should know about him, right?"

Mr. Gongsun was stunned and sighed, "It's a pity that Qin Yushi is loyal, but your Majesty is stupid, the court is divided, and the court is in chaos!"

"The general stayed in the capital and was feared by His Majesty. He didn't dare to directly plead for mercy, otherwise Qin Yushi would die faster. He found someone to take care of it privately and saved Lord Qin's life. It's a pity that his only granddaughter died of illness."

When Li Xiaoyue heard this, she turned to look at Gongsun Lian, "I trust Mr. Gongsun, so I am willing to tell the truth. I also ask Mr. Gongsun to spare her life for Master Qin's sake."

"Who?" Gongsun Lian looked at Li Xiaoyue with lightning eyes.

Li Xiaoyue also turned her head with a serious expression, "My father and Qin Yushi are close friends of life and death. He entrusted his granddaughter to my father. Qin Yuyao is at my house."

Gongsun Lian frowned slightly, his clever mind quickly found the key.

If it were just Qin Yushi Tuogu, the Li family's father and daughter would definitely keep it a secret and never tell him.

"What's the problem with Qin Yuyao?" Gongsun Lian was able to ask the key question at once, "Does Qin Yuyao have another purpose, or is there someone else behind it?"

Li Xiaoyue was surprised. As expected of a military advisor, her mind worked very quickly. She decided to tell the truth, "This is what happened..."

She will do everything possible to save Qin Yuyao's life, but she will never allow Qin Yuyao to do dangerous things with the lives of the Li family.

"His!" Gongsun Lian took a breath after hearing this, "Ms. Li, besides Qin Yuyao, are there any other outsiders entering your village?"

Li Xiaoyue shook her head, "No!"

"That means there is a spy around me and the Major General." Gongsun Lian raised his eyebrows and looked at the lake in the distance, "Qin Yuyao's matter is actually nothing. I believe that with Lady Li's methods, she will not be able to get important information. . I will also remind the Major General to eliminate the chance of getting close to Qin Yuyao." Li Xiaoyue also thought the same, "Mr. Gongsun, should we set up a trap to find the spies?"

Gongsun Lian thought for a while, "It is true that we should find him, but I just want to know who that person is, lest if one is caught, others will be bribed."

"If you can't beat them all or catch them all, then you can only use this stupid method. What I want the other party to know will be passed on through that person. I don't want those people to know, so I will avoid the spies."

Li Xiaoyue was silent for a moment, "Mr. Gongsun, is it difficult to be a good person and a loyal minister?"

"Yes!" Gongsun Lian smiled bitterly, "I can't do it, so I can only be a military advisor."

Li Xiaoyue smiled bitterly, "Not long ago, I learned about my father's identity. At that time, I thought, how could my father be willing to give up the glory and wealth at his fingertips and not enjoy it?"

"Now I understand that if you have a life, you may not have a life to enjoy. My father brought us to live peacefully in Lihua Village. We are not rich, but we are not poor either. My father's biggest disappointment here may be that I married blindly. Give it to Liu Yunde and let him worry about it."

"My father also said that now that the troops of the Qi State are strong, either this year or next year, they will inevitably invade the border. The Western Pass is in danger! The people above are fighting for power. They may not care about one or two cities, but this is my home, our hometown . I have my family here and I just want to protect our hometown."

Gongsun Lian was shocked, but when he thought that King Li Qiang was not only superb in marksmanship, but also had good military skills, it was normal to be able to deduce it.

"I don't like the environment in the capital either. The general asked his only son, the major general, to come to Xiguan to protect the people here."

"I promise you, as long as Qin Yuyao has not committed a crime of treason, I will not take her life. Even if the young general knows about it in the future, he will do the same."

Li Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you Mr. Gongsun. That's what happened. I can only be responsible for Qin Yuyao's side. I'll leave it to Mr. Gongsun for the outside."

Gongsun Lian nodded, "Okay. Don't worry, things haven't reached the worst yet. Lian, I will defend Zhenxi Pass to the death. If people are locked up, people will die if the barrier is broken."

"If Mrs. Li is worried, in fact, with your ingenuity, you can move eastward, which will also allow your family to live a good life and ensure their safety."

Li Xiaoyue sighed, "I have thought about it before, but my father said that he wanted to die in his hometown. People are cheap when they leave their hometown, and I can't bear to leave here."

"My ingenuity used to be only used on my family, eating, drinking and having fun. I will focus on other aspects in the future."

If the city is really destroyed, she might be able to go back!

In short, there is no room for her to be lazy now, nor for her to hide her clumsiness.

Gongsun Lian was surprised and asked: "In what way?"

"Weapons." Today, Li Xiaoyue wanted to tell Gongsun Lian about Qin Yuyao and the possible spies around them. In addition, she also wanted to talk about gunpowder.

"Haha, Madam Li, you are joking." Gongsun Lian disagreed, shook his head and laughed, "Do you know what steps are required to forge a sword, make a bow, and an arrow? Madam Li wants to learn, but it is not easy."

Li Xiaoyue also smiled, "In terms of traditional weapons, even if I study for ten years, I may not be able to match those old masters, and I don't have time to study. Since it is an ingenuity, it is naturally different from before."

Gongsun Lian was even more curious, expecting Lady Li to really give him some advice that would benefit him a lot.

"Ms. Li, please tell me carefully. If your ingenuity really comes in handy, I will thank you on behalf of the border officers and the people on the border."
