Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 611 Reasonable ideas for finding teammates
  Gu Xun waved his hand and said, "Imperial Master, it's just a false name. I have nothing to do. I'm quite free... At least that was the case before King Qi arrived in Xianyang. It's no problem to attend an appointment."

"The Imperial Master is too self-effacing." Yan Dan shook his head and laughed, "Dan still has to thank the Imperial Master for the invitation."

"No more words, please come in."

Gu Xun nodded and followed Yan Dan into his mansion.

There is nothing much to say about an ordinary three-entry courtyard. After entering the main entrance and passing through the vestibule, you will arrive at the banquet room for receiving guests.

It is also a banquet living room. Compared with Changping Jun's house, the layout is roughly the same, but the area is much smaller. The total number of guest seats is only six tables. Generally, it is no problem to receive a small number of guests, but there is no problem for a large banquet guest.

Fortunately, it's not serious. Yan Dan is a hostage. It is not appropriate to hold a banquet for guests in Xianyang. It is too eye-catching.

"The humble house is simple and crude, and I'm afraid it can't be compared with Chang Pingjun's home. I hope the Imperial Master doesn't mind." Yan Dan knew it in his heart and laughed at himself.

Gu Xun still pulled Yan Lingji to sit down, and replied nonchalantly, "It doesn't make any difference, the table is always this big anyway."

Yan Lingji's performance made Yan Dan a little confused - her eyes kept wandering, sometimes on Gu Xun, sometimes moving to him, and there was also a sense of teasing... as if she was waiting to watch a show?
  But he couldn't say anything. He could only pretend that he didn't see it, and he couldn't tell the guests to stop looking around.

"What the Imperial Master said makes sense, Dan has learned his lesson." Yan Dan looked serious and bowed his hands in a distant manner.

Next, it’s a reenactment of yesterday’s banquet, with the same process of serving, eating, drinking, and withdrawing from the banquet. However, Yan Dan’s house is not as grand as Xiong Qi’s house. As for the taste of the food, it’s just okay. Gu Xun I think it's acceptable.

After eating and drinking, it was natural for them to chat and talk. Since Yan Dan came to Guxun, he naturally had something to talk about.

The starting topic is... the incident in Jicheng.

"I left the country in a hurry before, and Xianyang is thousands of miles away from Jidu. News spreads very slowly. There are some things that I am not sure about. I would like to ask the national master if he knows anything about it. Is it convenient to clear up the confusion?" Yan Dan said He looked like he was asking for advice humbly.

Gu Xun asked in return, "What does Your Highness Yan Dan want to ask? The death of your uncle Yan Chunjun?"

Yan Dan shook his head and nodded again, "I already know about Uncle Wang's death. But it can be considered related to it."

"I want to know...how is the snow girl?"

"Hey!" Gu Xun chuckled and asked in a playful tone, "It seems that His Highness Yan Dan knows a lot."

"This matter... I feel ashamed to say it." Yan Dan pretended to be ashamed to say it, and sighed softly, "Uncle Wang always coveted the top dancer of my name Feixue Pavilion, the Snow Girl. In the past, I can still stop him with my mediation, but as soon as I leave Jidu... I predict that he will be eager to attack Feixue Pavilion."

"It's a pity that after the envoy from the State of Qin arrived, I had to leave the country in a hurry. I didn't have time to arrange the affairs of Feixue Pavilion, so I could only let the situation develop unchecked."

"So, Lord Yan Chun's death must have been expected by His Highness Yan Dan?"

Yan Dan nodded honestly, "Absolutely."

"I know the temperament of the Snow Maiden quite well, and I know that she will definitely make a strong move that would rather break than bend. By then... at least one of Uncle Wang and her will die."

"Then His Highness Yan Dan is asking about Miss Xue Nu now because he wants to find her and then... catch her?" Gu Xun asked with great interest.

Yan Dan shook his head and denied Gu Xun's guess, "No." He then showed a look of embarrassment and continued hesitantly, "I'm not afraid of the National Master's ridicule. In my opinion, Uncle Wang's death is He brought the blame upon himself, and besides, this matter is a good thing for me and for Yan State, so I have no reason to attack the Snow Girl who caused this situation."

"I just hope nothing happens to her. After all, this situation happened not only because of my poor handling of things, but also because I unconsciously and deliberately followed the trend. On the contrary, it was the snow girl who suffered an unreasonable disaster."

Yan Dan's words clearly revealed his ambitions, but the slight embellishments in his words made him appear less scheming and dirty.

Saying this kind of content that seems to be from the heart can, to a certain extent, help bring the two parties closer to each other.

But it definitely has no effect on Gu Xun.

Even if he didn't think about any conspiracy theory, just looking at the performance of Six Finger Black Man and the Mo family in Jidu at that time was enough to make people understand that all this had been planned long ago.

Speaking of which, no one took the initiative to trick Yan Chunjun - as long as he didn't commit suicide to snatch the Snow Girl, he could still be his Uncle Wang in peace and sound. He was inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. How could he be like now, with a scratch of loess.

Gu Xun nodded, without verbally commenting on what Yan Dan said, but turned around and asked:

"Hmm... But why does His Highness Yan Dan think that I know the whereabouts of the dancer Xue Nu?"

Yan Dan pursed his lips and smiled, and replied calmly, "First of all, when the incident happened, the Imperial Master was in Jidu, and he is the person I can find who is most likely to know the inside story."

"Secondly, I heard that the Imperial Master had some connection with the Mo family. At that time, the only people in Jidu who could save the Snow Girl were the Mo family."

Gu Xun shook his head and laughed, "You all know that, isn't His Highness Yan Dan quite well informed?"

Yan Dan smiled and remained silent.

He didn't intend to make a simple and kind-hearted proton image today, but wanted to show a certain degree of scheming. In other words, he wanted to show some value.

There are some things that he is not lying about. For example, it is true that he has no information now.

Xianyang is the capital of Qin and the headquarters of the Yin Yang family. It is difficult for the Moh family to move around here, and Yan Dan has to try his best to hide his identity. Otherwise, once discovered by the Yin Yang family, he may not be able to return to Yan alive. .

Without the support of the Mo family, how many ways can he get information with just a proton?
  As for Gu Xun's relationship with the Mo family, he knew about it before coming to Xianyang.

In the current state of Yan Dan's view, Gu Xun's relationship with the Qin State is obviously very subtle. It is by no means a simple and loyal superior-subordinate relationship. It may be similar to the relationship between the Yin and Yang family and the Qin State.

Since he is not a die-hard loyalist, he thinks he can try to win over each other. It is bustling and prosperous, and everyone might be able to cooperate on some things.

You help me first, and I will help you in the future. It’s mutual benefit, right?
  Now that the Mo family is gone, Yan Dan has no choice but to find some local help in Xianyang as much as possible. However, this is easy to say, but... it is really troublesome to do.

The main reason is that there are no forces in Xianyang that can be won over. They are basically die-hard members of the Qin State, and there is no possibility of cooperation.

He thought about it and searched a lot, and felt that Guxun was the most worth a try.

So, it’s the same sentence – as long as you dare to think about it, the consequences will be disastrous.
