Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 532 Failure
  "Ahem!" Gu Xun caught a glimpse of Yan Lingji's expression from the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but cough twice, signaling her to calm down and stop scaring the child.

Yan Lingji rolled her eyes when she heard the sound, showing no intention of restraining herself.

Yan Lu blinked his eyes and looked at the strange actions of the two people opposite him. He only felt that the strange feeling that was neither malicious nor kind was stronger.

Seeing that Gu Xun's dissuasion failed, he didn't bother to care about Yan Lingji. He continued talking and directly distracted Yan Lu's attention:

"When Jing Salamander gave birth to Ayan, she was hunted down by Luo Yun. She happened to be rescued by me. In order to avoid Luo Yun's pursuit, I took her to Xinzheng. If you know a little bit about me, you should know this. details."

Yan Lu nodded.

When Gu Xun hadn't come back just now, Fu Nian urgently did some information about Gu Xun for him. He didn't know the details, but he had a general understanding of him recently, and he also understood the relevant events in Xinzheng.

However, Yan Lu felt that Gu Xun was so active in Xinzheng, it didn't look like he was avoiding a trap at all...

Seeing that he knew, Gu Xun continued, "Later, by chance, I met the current King of Qin Ying Zheng, and I had some official connections with the Qin State. Later, the King of Qin defeated Chang Xinhou and Wenxin Hou. In the case of Hou, I also provided some help, which was regarded as a meritorious service. I was granted the title of National Master, and Luo Wang was also purged because of Lu Buwei's influence, and the threat from Luo Wang was completely eliminated."

"Of course, during this process, my relationship with Frightened Salamander... has developed a little bit and become closer. You should be able to understand."

It's understandable... Yan Lu nodded again... As a man, Sister Jingyu is so beautiful, so it's completely understandable.

There seemed to be nothing wrong with the whole paragraph, and Gu Xun's expression was sincere, but Yan Lu still didn't choose to believe it.

Combining Gu Xun's words with Fu Nian's information, Yan Lu was basically certain that Jing salamander was indeed following Gu Xun. He should be one of the two ladies with more mysterious identities, but this did not mean that the other party was an ally.

You know, Jing Salad has a child named Ayan by his side. Yan Lu believes that Jing Sala, who is the first-class person in Luo Shengqian, would rather die with the enemy than be coerced by him, but it will be completely different when she becomes a mother. .

With A Yan's weakness, it is difficult to determine the specific situation of Jing Salamander. Therefore, Yan Lu now only believes in what Jing Salamander himself said to him. Other than that, he has doubts about everything.

Gu Xun could see that the young man in front of him was still doubting himself, so he couldn't help but shook his head and sighed, "Oh... being suspicious at a young age is quite serious."

When Yan Lu heard this, he just showed a humble and gentle smile to Gu Xun, pretending that he didn't understand what the other person said.

"Forget it..." Gu Xun waved his hand, "Believe it or not, Jingbao and Ayan are doing well when I say this. If you have time, you might as well go to Xianyang to see them. If you don't want to leave Little Saint's Manor... Maybe in a few years when Ayan is older, Jing salamander will bring his children to see you."

Yan Lu's brows twitched slightly. For his safety, the safety of Little Saint's Village, and the safety of Jingyu mother and son, he knew that he should not leave Little Saint's Village. Once his identity was exposed, he would cause a lot of trouble. , but... he couldn't just sit idly by and ignore the safety of Jing Salamander. He must find a way to determine the other party's condition as soon as possible.

It's embarrassing... Xianyang is too dangerous for him. Gu Xun narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Yan Lu's reaction. It was obvious that the child wanted to find out the situation of the Frightened Salamander, but he had some scruples...

"I don't know what people or forces you are caring about, or what else. Jingyu didn't tell me much. He only said that you were her brother and asked me to come to Sanghai to see you." Gu Xun's voice It sounded along with Yan Lu's entanglement, and it was clearly sent to his ears, "But there is one thing I have to remind you. From Jing salamander's point of view, you are my brother-in-law. With this relationship, no one can treat you." No matter what, it doesn’t matter whether it’s a snare, hundreds of schools of thought, or even seven royal families.”

After hearing these words, Yan Lu's expression returned to the original indifference, he smiled casually, saluted and thanked Gu Xun:
  "Yan Lu would like to thank Imperial Master Gu for telling me about Sister Jingyu's current situation, and also thanks Imperial Master for his kind concern. If there is an opportunity, Yan Lu will definitely go to Xianyang to visit her."

"Okay." Seeing him like this, Gu Xun knew that this meeting would be like this for the time being. The other party never believed him, but it didn't matter. This meeting was just a familiar face. As for Wu Ming and the secret behind Yan Lu himself... …I’ll say it later, “Since you have concerns, let’s get to know each other first this time, and let’s talk next time we meet.”

"If there is any trouble that cannot be solved, you can send a letter to me or Jing Salam in Xianyang. I have the official position of National Preceptor, so it should not be difficult to find my residence."

"Thank you, Imperial Master, for your concern." Yan Lu thanked him again.

Gu Xun waved his hand casually, pulled Yan Lingji and got up and left the house. When he went out, he naturally saw Fu Nian who was still guarding outside.

"Have Master Imperial Master and Junior Brother Yan Lu finished talking?" Fu Nian stepped forward and asked.

"Well, we're done talking." Gu Xun nodded, and then told Fu Nian again, "Yan Lu just bothered Master Fu Nian and the Little Sage Village to worry about it. If he offends some of the Little Sage Village, uh ...If you have troubles that are not suitable for handling, you can send a message to me in Xianyang."

"National Master, you're too polite. Junior Brother Yan Lu is a disciple of Little Saint Xian Manor, so why bother talking about it? Besides, Junior Brother lives in seclusion and is kind to others, so he is less likely to get into trouble." Fu Nian declined Gu Xun's kindness in a roundabout way.

This is also a normal reaction. As the head of Confucianism, how could he respond to such words that were similar to abandoning his own disciples and his junior brothers and handing them over to others.

Gu Xun was not annoyed when his good intentions were rejected again and again. He also waved his hand and said goodbye nonchalantly:
  "Master Fu Nian has a lot of things to do every day. Gu will not continue to disturb you and take his leave."

Although Gu Xun said that there was no need to send him off, the Confucian leader who strictly abided by etiquette still sent him to the main gate in person before he formally said goodbye.

On the way down the mountain, there was no cook, only Gu Xun and Yan Lingji. After all, the cook was just here to deliver a meal, so he could just put down the food box and leave.

Yan Lingji clasped her hands on her chest, squeezed out a deep dark groove, and said with some surprise, "Shopkeeper, you have a good temper today, and you are not angry even if you make people lose face."

Gu Xun put his hands behind his back and walked slowly down the mountain. He replied nonchalantly, "Yan Lu has a special background. It's normal to be a little defensive. He's just a child, and he has a relationship with Salamander. There is no need to be angry about the friendship between siblings."

Of course, the most critical and fundamental reason is his relationship with Jing salamander. Gu Xun has always been very tolerant of his own people.
