Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 177 Push him to death
  The looks in the eyes of Zi Nu and Wei Zhuang are naturally related to military pay.

In the past few days, Zi Nu has been trying to see if Gu Xun had done anything, but she found that the matter seemed to have nothing to do with him, and there was no reaction at all. But could there be such a coincidence in the world?
  So I want to ask him today.

Of course, the reason that prompted them to decide to do this actually had something to do with Han Fei.

This Ninth Young Master, who has been living a wild life all day long, has not been idle after the ghost soldier robbery occurred. Wei Zhuang thought this was an opportunity and planned to take advantage of it.

"How did you know in advance that Ye Mo would attack the army's salary?" Wei Zhuang said bluntly when he heard that Gu Xun had given up the question.

After Gu Xun thought about it for a while, he replied very calmly:

"I have someone in the night!"

"And the status is not low."

Gu Xun felt that he was sincere. Although the chronological order was somewhat reversed, what he said was absolutely true.

"You? Do you have people at night? Can you still have people at night?" Zi Nu couldn't help laughing when she heard this and asked again and again.

Wei Zhuang also looked at Gu Xun with questioning eyes.

Do you also know how to bribe spies and send undercover agents? How is that possible? It’s just a joke!
  Gu Xun was a little dissatisfied with Zi Nu's slightly mocking smile, and replied impatiently: "There happens to be one, isn't it?"

"Yes, hehe, of course."

Gu Xun looked even more unhappy.

Seeing this, Zi Nu smiled and patted him, "Okay, I won't laugh at you anymore."

"If you are really an insider, do you know where the military pay is now?"

Gu Xun scratched his head and asked deliberately:
  "Han Wangan lost his money, what does it have to do with you? Why do you ask?"

Wei Zhuang's eyes flashed several times when he heard this, and he looked at Gu Xun strangely.

Yan Lingji was still playing with her hair at this time, waiting with great interest for the results of the military pay matter.

She hoped that Gu Xunmi would pay the 100,000 military pay.

Anyway, she is happy that Korea is unlucky.

Zi Nu hesitated and asked tentatively in an erratic tone:

"That one hundred thousand military pay...won't it have been swallowed up by you?"

"How is it possible? How could I steal the hard-earned money of those big soldiers?" Gu Xun quickly clarified for himself.

Zi Nu was a little skeptical about this, but judging from his appearance, he shouldn't be lying, that is to say...

"You don't know where the military pay is?"

"No, I know." Gu Xun denied Zi Nu's guess, and then directly said, "But... I can neither swallow this money directly, nor can I give it to you."

"Then what do you want to do after asking so clearly?"

"It must be useful!" Gu Xun simply explained to Zi Nu, "It is given to another person, uh... to be precise, it is used to make a deal with others."

"Who?" Wei Zhuang was keenly aware that this person might be the same person as his target.

"Han Fei."

Sure enough, it was this Ninth Young Master.

Zi Nu couldn't help but touch her forehead with her hand.

With Gu Xun getting involved, it seems that Wei Zhuang's plan will come to nothing.

Wei Zhuang obviously understood this truth, and his brows furrowed unconsciously. This opportunity seems to have been wasted, but it is impossible for him to let Gu Xun give in voluntarily.

We are all friends, and we can't say who is giving in to whom. Since they are all focused on this matter, let's see who is smarter and faster.

This time, Gu Xun did things neatly and Wei Zhuang had nothing to say.

Just wait for the next opportunity.

Anyway, as long as the night is not dead, they will continue to act like monsters, and there will be plenty of opportunities.

However, to their surprise, Gu Xun suddenly turned his head and asked:
  "You two want to take this opportunity to try Han Fei, right?"

"You know what?" Zi Nu's eyes curled up and she asked with a smile.

"It's not difficult to guess." Gu Xun gave a perfunctory answer casually, and then said: "Your plan can remain as usual. The military pay is still in Ye Mu's hands. You can just check it out with Han Fei."

"By the way, remember to let me know when you find out soon so I can make my next plan."

"..."

Zi Nu and Wei Zhuang looked at each other and couldn't help but respond in silence.

Although it is a good thing, I feel inexplicably unhappy. The leisurely elegance that I originally wanted to test Han Fei's ability has been completely destroyed by Gu Xun...

Forget it, just make do with it, at least it saves you some trouble.

At this time, a maid came in, bowed to everyone, handed Zi Nu a letter and left immediately.

Zi Nu took the creed, opened it and glanced at it, then raised her head and said:
  "After today's court meeting, Han Wangan met with General Ji Wuye and Xiang Guo to discuss the solution of the ghost soldier case. Finally, he issued an order to order Zhang Xiangguo to personally investigate the case. He has a three-day deadline to solve the case. If he exceeds the deadline... he will be severely punished."

After hearing this, Wei Zhuang sneered sarcastically, "Han Wangan still likes to use these little tricks, but it's a pity that important events are always done in a mess."

Gu Xun looked puzzled, where did these words come from?
  "What do you mean by that?"

Seeing that Gu Xun didn't understand, Zi Nu explained to him:

"After all, the main responsibility for the loss of military pay lies with Ji Wuye, who is the general. However, because there were rumors about ghost soldiers robbing the pay, King Han punished Ji Wuye severely and could only let people from Kaifangdi solve the case."

"Now that the chief inquisitors are dying mysteriously one after another, our King Han is probably timid and doesn't want to investigate anymore, but he can't give up easily. It seems that he is afraid of the ghost soldiers, so he simply kills the Prime Minister directly. He was launched to investigate the case and given a very short time limit. When the time is up, he will not be able to really punish the Prime Minister severely. At most, he will be punished symbolically and casually, and the matter can be over."

"Is this so..." Gu Xun's expression was a little complicated.

I didn't expect that the old fat man's brain would be surprisingly good when he encountered this kind of thing!

but……

"Isn't he afraid that Kaidi will also die at the hands of those ghost soldiers?" Gu Xun asked with a smile.

Didn't Han Wangan push Kaidi into the fire pit? Give Ji Wuye a reasonable excuse to get rid of his biggest political enemy.

"That's why the time limit he gave is so short. Once the time is up, the case will be fine if it's not investigated."

"Three days? It's not short. Not to mention three days, even three hours is enough for Ji Wuye to arrange for people to get rid of Kaidi and push it onto the ghost soldiers." Gu Xun felt that this plan was too stupid. Aren't you sending your important ministers to die?
  "Are you sure that Han Wangan is planning this? Couldn't he be so angry that Ji Wuye took the opportunity to throw a tantrum into the fire and casually pulled the ground open to jack up the cylinder?"

Zi Nu spread her hands, looked sideways and smiled:
  "Maybe you are right. We are just guessing, but Han Wangan has always been a little clever in this kind of thing. Who can say for sure."

"The reason you think we need to worry is because we know that the ghost soldiers are ultimately the conspiracy of Ji Wuye, but not Han Wang An. He may not really believe this rumor."

"hehe!"

Gu Xun could only laugh at this.

A dignified king of a country, with this kind of virtue, it is difficult for Korea to be immortal!
