Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1380 Just teasing you

On the beach of Songhai, above the mirage, lies the palace of the Moon God.

After some intrigues with Xinghun, Moon God did not stay outside anymore and directly returned to his dormitory to rest.

She was in a very confused state of mind right now, and there were too many things to think about and consider.

The intervention of Gu Xun and Yan Fei will obviously add too many unpredictable changes to the outcome of Mirage's voyage. Where should she go becomes a question.

Do you still want to stick to your plan?
  If you persist, how can you ensure that you still get the results you want?
  What to do if it fails?
  Etc., etc……

There are so many issues to consider.

In comparison, being caught by Xinghun was a trivial matter.

Anyway, the mirage is about to set sail, and they will not return to Xianyang headquarters in a short time. Even if Xinghun seizes conclusive evidence, it is impossible to use the power of Donghuang Taiyi to deal with her directly.

It's just that you have to be careful in what you do next, so that Star Soul doesn't find it and take advantage of it.

With thousands of thoughts piled up in his mind, the Moon God could only sit cross-legged on the couch with no solution, closed his eyes and meditated, slowly thinking about everything.

In the incense burner on the side, the calming spices were burning quietly, and the curls of white smoke slowly rose from the burner.

The next second, Gu Xun's figure suddenly appeared, bringing with it a twisting aromatic smoke.

Luna seemed to sense that there was someone else in the room, and her eyes shrouded in gauze slowly opened.

"Have you already seen her?" Looking at Gu Xun, who looked thoughtful, Luna became convinced. It seemed that he had successfully obtained some valuable information from the prisoner.

Gu Xun put aside the thoughts on his face, showed a smile, and nodded, "I've seen her before... It's different from what you said. She is still quite sober, and she is far from a lunatic."

"Ha!" Luna snorted in neither sadness nor joy, with no emotion in her tone. "It seems that woman is much tougher than I thought... and is also good at acting."

"In this case, the National Preceptor should have gotten the answer he wanted."

Gu Xun shook his head, and the smile on his lips became more obvious, "Strictly speaking, no, but I did know some interesting information. She is more valuable than I expected."

"So, what's the price?" Luna blinked, not overly curious about what Gu Xun knew, but more curious about what kind of reward he paid for it.

Gu Xun shrugged and said bluntly, "I promise to let her go."

Well, I did not hide it, but I only told half of it for the time being.

Upon hearing this, Luna frowned immediately, "Master Imperial Master, you should understand that there must be no mistakes in the mirage's voyage. This is the emperor's request!"

In order to warn Gu Xun, Yueshen directly brought out Ying Zheng, the only trump card that could restrain Gu Xun.

"But regarding the mirage, among all the requests that Donghuang Taiyi made to Ying Zheng, that woman should not exist, right?" Gu Xun asked Yue Shen in return with a smile.

Yes, the mirage's voyage must not be interfered with, and he, Gu Xun, is willing to serve His Majesty the Emperor and not to disrupt or affect this matter.

But Emperor Qin Dong Taiyi never said that this woman was needed during the mirage's voyage, right?

If you don’t say it, it’s useless!

Since it's useless, what if my master lets her go?

Who dares to dissent! ?
  In the final analysis, although Ying Zheng hopes to get the immortality he dreams of from Donghuang Taiyi, as the person who may have the strongest political skills in the world today, he cannot blindly succumb to Donghuang Taiyi.

Gu Xun is his method of restricting the Yin Yang family. Even if Gu Xun's direct release would affect the progress of the Mirage Project, Ying Zheng would not blame him.

Who told you Donghuang Taiyi not to tell you earlier!

When facing the emperor, you never tell the whole story. What do you want to do?
  Every time Donghuang Taiyi was helpless with Gu Xun and turned to Ying Zheng for help, it also meant that he himself had to make certain compromises with Ying Zheng.

They are actually the same on both sides.

Gu Xun gave in to Ying Zheng, so Donghuang Taiyi had to give in to Ying Zheng at least one step.

Therefore, every time Gu Xun sabotaged and interfered with Donghuang Taiyi's plan, Ying Zheng would only come forward to ask Gu Xun to compromise and deal with the aftermath, but he would never punish him for it.

Ying Zheng usually doesn't do things like drawing boards across the river, not to mention that the river has not yet been crossed.

After receiving this response, Moon God's expression changed, but he could not refute.

She could only say helplessly, "What's the point of the Imperial Master doing this?"

"Even if you let her go, she will still be captured in the end. Even if we can't catch her, Headmaster Donghuang will ask His Majesty the Emperor. There is a high probability that this job will eventually fall on you. "

"It means a lot." Gu Xun spread his hands indifferently and said playfully, "At least I fulfilled my promise. If the woman is caught again, it will be her business."

"I'm a decent person, I can't break my trust."

Luna rolled her eyes at Gu Xun, sighed softly and said, "I think making such a meaningless promise to tease a prisoner will only damage the dignity of the national master."

"Instead of wasting your efforts, it is better to make a truly valuable promise to the other party from the beginning, even if the value of this promise cannot be compared with freedom."

"Ha!" Gu Xun said with a joking smile, "I didn't expect you to worry about that substitute."

"I just don't want Mirage's voyage to have another setback." Moon Goddess replied faintly, "So, I hope the Imperial Master will think twice before proceeding."

"Humph! Don't worry!" Seeing this, Gu Xun raised his brows and made a complete promise, "What I promised is that after Mirage sets sail, I will find a suitable time to release her."

"You..." Moon God sighed feebly, and the accusation finally turned into a rhetorical question, "So, what was the purpose of what the Imperial Master said just now?"

Gu Xunyi shrugged, looking unconcerned, "No reason, just teasing you."

"So I have said many times, try to keep your mind calm. Otherwise, with your mind, it should not be difficult to think that if I promised to let her go directly, there would definitely be more than one person standing here talking to you now."

"Just like sand in your hand, the tighter you hold it, the harder it is to keep it."

After hearing Gu Xun's preaching, Yueshen, who was already in a complicated mood, became more and more irritable. She didn't bother to talk to him anymore, showed an unhappy look, and directly changed the subject and asked:

"The Imperial Master dares to make such a promise. It seems that he has already figured out what the use of that woman is?"

"No." Gu Xun shook his head decisively, "If I knew this clearly, I wouldn't be so ambiguous."

"The right time...heh, how do I know when the right time is now?"

Are you going to give someone a bad check?

Luna didn't care whether the woman was prostituted by Gu Xun for free, but she still couldn't help but said sarcastically:

"This seems to be contrary to the dignity that the Imperial Master wants."
