As soon as Yin Shiniang returned to the inn, she threw a little copper bell the size of a thumb to Gu Liubai.
As soon as Gu Liubai caught it, he found that there was always a faint light green air flow inside the copper bell.
"Is this the Qingqi Bell?"
"yes."
"No living?"
"I can't leave a living." Yin Shiniang said very simply, "This man chose the most crowded person to leave the city. He prepared a few fast horses outside the city. Moreover, this man was very good at water. When we caught up, he jumped into the river and dived. Lan Yufeng put silk threads in the water. The man found that he couldn't escape and committed suicide directly. He should be a dead soldier."
"A seventh-rank deceased soldier."
Gu Liubai was a little confused. He glanced at the copper-colored clock in his hand and asked, "Apart from this thing, is there any other clues on that person?"
Yin Shiniang said, "There is a document to go to Yangguan, and a purse that contains broken silver and Uighur money, and nothing else will be left."
“Or it’s still a view of depravity?”
Pei Yunqi frowned and said, "Since there are people with depravity in the palace, maybe there are important figures with depravity in other families."
"I heard Du Haha say that when you were fighting with someone, you used the method of changing your body shape that I taught you?" Yin Shiniang said in a deep voice, "You have practiced to change your body shape at will, and use Ruyi in the fight between life and death? How could it be so fast?"
Gu Liubai came to his senses only then.
No wonder Yin Shiniang threw it to her Qingqi Bell and refused to leave after saying this.
According to Yin Shiniang's usual cheerful temperament, she had already turned around and left.
After a long time, it turned out that it was because of this!
"How can it be so fast!" In order not to let Yin Shiniang have psychological shadows, he said honestly, "Your method is too difficult to control. Not to mention fighting against the enemy, if you want to keep a body shape unchanged in normal times, it will take several years of practice. I thought I would come in handy as soon as possible, so I practiced a left hand first. On the way back to Chang'an, I will practice my right hand. After practicing both hands, I will practice two legs at that time."
Yin Shiniang breathed a sigh of relief. She originally subconsciously wanted to say that it was okay, but when she said something was wrong, she said calmly: "It's a smart person."
After saying this, she turned around and left with satisfaction.
Gu Liubai turned around and handed the Qingqi Bell to Pei Yunqi.
Jin Yanhua wants Pei Yunqi's life now. Although the fifth prince thinks that the Jin family in Xuzhou is nothing scary, who knows if there will be any powerful figures who will take advantage of the troubled waters.
This clear air bell is much safer when it comes to your body.
Unexpectedly, Pei Yunqiu did not answer Qingqi Bell, but said seriously: "Why don't you give it to Jiang Ziyan?"
Gu Liubai looked at her suspiciously, sure she was not jealous or joking, "What's the point here?"
Pei Yunqi said seriously: "Recently, Rong Xiu and Duan Ai have both gained benefits, but I'm afraid she feels targeted."
Gu Liubai shook his head and said, "That won't be possible. In fact, she may get more benefits when she comes to Chang'an. Yin Shiniang can replicate this trick against Duan Hongxing. At that time, choose a swordsman who is as honest as Duan Hongxing but has a stronger foundation than Duan Hongxing."
Pei Yunxi frowned slightly, "But it's been rumored outside this time that she has given birth to many illegitimate children for you."
Before Gu Liubai could speak, she continued: "Even if the pure one is clear, she, a pure and innocent girl, will eventually suffer a loss of reputation. This Qingqi Bell is given to her as compensation."
Gu Liubai thought she was always generous, so he just smiled and said, "Then you will do this with you. Anyway, she will follow us to Chang'an. If there are evil people approaching, this Qingqi Bell will also warn you."
"good."
Pei Yunqi excitedly took the Qingqi Bell and went to Jiang Ziyan. She took only two steps, but Gu Liubai felt something was wrong and couldn't help but say, "This is a great treasure. The thing used by the emperor of the previous dynasty. Others don't have such treasures. If you give her one, will it make people outside feel that the rumors are true?"
Pei Yun kept walking, waved his hand back, and said, "Do I care about those rumors?"
She was so guilty that she died.
She just thinks so much about people outside!
Anyway, she knew that Jiang Ziyan and Gu Shiwu were nothing, but Shangguan bitch who was far away in Chang'an didn't know.
Shangguan Zhaoyi has never even seen Gu Shiwu before. With her usual temperament, even if she is secretly accused of green eyes, she can still steal someone else's husband?
If she heard that Jiang Ziyan and Gu Shiwu had already given birth to a few babies, she would definitely not think about this anymore.
I, Pei Yunqi, are such a clever little clever!
"Sister Zi Yan!"
She shouted when she arrived outside Jiang Ziyan's room, for fear that others would not hear it. "Gu Ningxi specially asked me to give you a treasure, which is called Qingqi Bell."
"Thank you, Miss Second." Jiang Ziyan opened the door, looked flattered, and immediately bowed to Pei Yunqi.
"Don't thank me, just thank Gu Ningxi." Pei Yunqi felt a little guilty. After replying to the gift, he immediately said goodbye and left, but did not forget to add, "This Qingqi Bell is a unique magic weapon. It is used by the emperor of the previous dynasty to defend himself. Don't drop it."
"Clean Qi Bell!"
"A such a powerful magic weapon was actually given to Sister Zi Yan?"
Although Jiang Ziyan was shocked, Rong Xiu and Duan Ai, who happened to walk into the courtyard, were even more stunned.
During this period, Songxi Academy has compiled a lot of classics and notes about the practice of the previous dynasty, and there is a mention of the Qingqi Bell. This treasure that the emperor hangs in front of the bed when he sleeps, was actually given to Jiang Ziyan?
With a creaking sound, Jiang Ziyan quickly closed the door.
Rong Xiu frowned and said, "I said Xiao Ai, do you think Zi Yan is very low-key these days?"
Duan Ai was exhausted from practicing swords during this period and had no time to observe Jiang Ziyan. However, after Rong Xiu said this, he suddenly felt that this was the case. If it weren't for the assassin, Jiang Ziyan wouldn't even go out of the door during this period, and she looked very delicate.
"Is she weak?"
The two of them happened to be standing outside Hua Linyi's room and talking. Hua Linyi was originally tidying up her luggage. After all, she was about to set off to Chang'an tomorrow morning. When she heard the conversation between the two, she couldn't help but open the door and whispered: "In the past ten days, two maids often give her stewed soup."
"Fairy?"
After all, Duan Ai has a high rank, so she suddenly understood what was going on, "Is she in confinement?"
"What are you talking nonsense?"
Rong Xiu and Hua Linyi felt that Duan Ai was simply crazy.
The two of them threw a contemptuous look at Duan Ai at the same time and went back to Hualinyi's house.
Duan Ai sighed.
These two girls are unbearable to be enemies.
Jiang Ziyan and Pei Yunqi are really amazing!
It is rumored outside that Jiang Ziyan and Brother Ningxi had an illegitimate child. They naturally knew that she and Brother Ningxi were innocent, but outsiders didn’t know. She was posing as a confinement during this period, just to make people outside believe it?
When Pei Yunqi sent out this clear air bell, outsiders probably thought that she and Gu Ningxi had a great relationship.
Before, she and Jiang Ziyan had explored Wang Ruoxu's words.
Although Wang Ruoxu didn't say it directly, the two of them figured it out, and it seemed that Shangguan Zhaoyi also wanted to get involved in Gu Ningxi.
It was obvious that Pei Yunqiu wanted to use Jiang Ziyan to make Shangguan Zhaoyi give up.
Jiang Ziyan took advantage of the situation and first got rid of Shangguan Zhaoyi, the great enemy.
In this world, there is really a mountain with a mountain high!
...
Penglai Island in Taiye Pool.
The pavilions and towers are like the residences of immortals in overseas fairy mountains.
In a small hall above, there are imperial thrones, desks, tables, chairs and other items. On some shelves next to them, there are many rare treasures from overseas tributes.
The emperor in regular clothes sat on the imperial throne and looked indifferently at the third prince sitting at the lower head.
The third prince looked casual and didn't feel nervous at all.
"The information sent from Jitai Pavilion and Youzhou all show that there is a very likely connection between you and Xie Wan." The emperor looked at the third prince for a moment and suddenly smiled faintly, "Are you really so open-minded? Are you sure you are clear about these things?"
The third prince immediately smiled and said, "Does my son have anything to do with Xie Wan? Father, you have the final say."
"You haven't changed much in the past few years." The emperor curled his smile and looked at him calmly, "But it would be fine if he wanted to be Hu Wei when he was a child. Now he is doing some bastards at this age. Are you really not afraid that I will punish you?"
The third prince also became serious and said, "What is the Father talking about?"
The emperor sneered: "What did you do to Shangguan Zhaoyi? I don't know?"
"How come the Father wants to know what he wants to know, how can he not know?" The third prince's expression still did not change, but his tone of speaking became serious. "But if the father wants to punish Erchen, he would not see me here. Erchen did not intend to speculate on his father's intentions, but Erchen felt that the things in the bones of my father and I, Li, would not change over the years."
The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly and jokingly said, "Oh, let's hear it?"
The third prince said proudly, "What Li can't tolerate is not the children who occasionally do little tricks, but what Li can't tolerate is the waste."
He slowly raised his head and looked at the emperor and said, "Li, don't waste."
The emperor's expression did not change and he did not express any opinions.
The third prince said in a deep voice: "The son minister has no other thoughts, but he just wants to become stronger. The children of Li family can ignore other important things, but they must be strong enough. When something that really threatens Li family appears, the children of Li family will have the ability to stand alone."
The emperor nodded slowly and said, "Continue."
"The four-eared demon cat appears, which means that the practitioner who truly seized the Depravity of the Taoist sect appeared. This person threatens me, Li, and I must try to quickly improve my cultivation." The third prince said in a slight voice: "The green eyes also have many good players, and they must stir up the storm in Chang'an. If I don't have the ability to suppress him, how can I share my father's worries?"
The emperor smiled.
His smile just looked majestic, and there was no sign of any emotion mixed with it.
He looked at the third prince and smiled, "You really have no idea about this dragon throne?"
"Father, that's not something that the son minister needs to consider. Father, you said at the beginning that the son minister has not changed for so many years." The third prince also laughed and said, "What the son minister needs to consider is to become stronger."
The emperor seemed a little satisfied. He nodded slowly and said, "I don't care about Shangguan Zhaoyi's affairs, but the parents and daughter of Pei Guogong... You should not neglect it, but I don't know if you can understand why I want to take such a move?"
"My son dares to guess."
The third prince said seriously: "At least four years ago, the father began to regain the military power of Pei's family. Then he borrowed several defeats from the border army and began to transfer the generals of Pei's family back to their idle positions. On the surface, this gives people the feeling that the father naturally wants to hold some military power, but the son-in-law thinks that the father will not be so superficial."
The emperor smiled slightly, waved his hand, and signaled the third prince to continue.
The third prince suddenly became a little bolder and said, "I am sure my father will not be so superficial, but I can't understand what big things my father wants to do, but suddenly I heard the news that Pei wanted to marry me, Li, suddenly I figured it out. It seems that my father is naturally appeaseing Pei, but I think that the previous things, my father, you must have discussed with the Duke of Pei. Pei is cooperating with the plan to act a bitter trick."
The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly and his eyes flashed, "You have made some progress in strategy."
The third prince knew that he had guessed correctly and immediately grinned, "The father has put in so much effort to transfer the generals of Pei's family back. I'm afraid that the next step is to get a good opportunity to make a major change in the military towns around Chang'an."
Hearing this, the emperor seemed to be out of interest. He stood up and walked out of the hall, and said coldly: "You should go to practice well. According to the news I know, Pei Yunqi and the boy named Gu Ningxi will set off from Youzhou tomorrow."
The third prince patted his butt and left.
This is certainly not a secret to him.
Today, it is a big test for him.
He felt that he was doing well.
After the third prince walked away, the eunuch, who was called the great companion by the emperor, appeared in front of the emperor.
The emperor sighed.
"This third brother is just like the eldest brother. Although it is pretty good, it's still a little bit of a meaning in the end."
The eunuch, who he called the Great Companion, was his real name Gao Yuanyi. He was the emperor's playmate when he was young. Over the years, no one in Chang'an City understood the emperor's thoughts better than him.
So he smiled and said, "That is, the saints always compare them with the saints."
"How can one generation be worse than another?"
The emperor's voice suddenly became colder, "The third brother is always a little self-righteous, but he is a qualified Li family, the second brother and the sixth brother. He either stays by and waits to die, or just wants to enjoy it and has no intention. Now the fifth brother looks a little more pleasing."
Gao Yuanyi lowered his head slightly, his face changed no matter how he was.
He had already expected the emperor to think this way.
This is not that Lao Wu has become pleasing to the eyes, but that Lao Wu is now getting close to those people, and the emperor's temperament is still the same as before. The lifeblood of Xuanjia is still in the hands of those people. He subconsciously thought about reconciling this matter through Lao Wu.
"The Wu Lao has always been pretty good, but he always wanted to be an idle prince, but he was afraid of being crushed to death." Of course, he knew how to follow the emperor's wishes. After pondering slightly, he continued, "When Li clan should let him work hard in the past few years, he still works hard."
"He's the only chance." The emperor was in a slightly better mood. "When he came back, let him choose a place and build a house for him."
Gao Yuanyi's heart was slightly shocked.
This is equivalent to the future royal palace, which means that it can protect the fifth prince's head, but in this way, the fifth prince will completely withdraw from the competition for the future emperor.
The emperor wanted to use the fifth prince, but because he was too close to Green Eyes, the emperor directly deprived him of the possibility of inheriting the throne in the future.
This kind of venting anger and such a harsh method was not the emperor's previous behavior.
He intuitively felt that there would be major changes.
Sure enough, he heard the emperor say slowly, "Now even the third brother has seen our plan. It seems that this matter can only be done quickly, not slow. At the latest, the change of generals in the military towns around Chang'an will be completed."
Gao Yuanyi took a deep breath, without saying a word, but nodded.
After walking out of Penglai Island, he finally sighed and gave up his plan to persuade the emperor.
He could not agree with the emperor's simple and straightforward approach to treating the fifth prince.
In his opinion, the practice of excluding the fifth prince from Li's true core circle will eventually lead to a result, that is, pushing the green eyes further.
He also knew very well that the emperor did this because at first he suspected that Green Eyes were the descendant of the previous generation of Degenerate Guan Taoist.
Even though this possibility has been ruled out now, the emperor's dislike has continued.
This is his weakness in temperament.
Just like the sixth prince, even if the emperor figured it out afterwards, it actually makes no sense to dislike it, but the dislike in his heart is difficult to turn it into liking again.
He really wanted to remind the emperor that at this critical moment, Green Eyes are just here to come to Chang'an, and it is very dangerous to treat the fifth prince and Green Eyes with this style.
A giant ship that travels smoothly, when there is no wind and waves, hitting a reef will at most break a hole and can have the opportunity to repair it.
But if you hit a hole and encounter a huge storm, this giant ship that usually looks like it will not overturn may really overturn.
However, in the midst of entanglement, as the emperor's companion, he clearly realized that his advice would probably be unpleasant. The more intimate he was, the more likely he would gradually become distant because of an insignificant little thing that could not obey his wishes.
He can't take this risk.
Compared with the risk of hitting a reef, the cooperation between the helmsman and the sail controller is more important.
He could not have any other thoughts, he had to do his best to act according to the emperor's ideas.
...
"If you come to see me, what are you doing with such a big bag?"
At the same time, in the Sixth Prince's bedroom, the Sixth Prince looked at Princess An Xing, who was following four palace servants, and frowned.
These four palace ladies seemed to be escaping, with large bags full of things on their bodies.
Princess Anxing smiled immediately after hearing this, "My Sixth Brother is so smart, can't you guess it?"
"I'm going to set off soon?" The Sixth Prince looked at the sky behind her and sighed in his heart, knowing that one more person could speak in the palace soon.
"I'll leave tomorrow." Princess Anxing became serious. "Although it's something that I can't take away, it's not useless junk. Maybe it's useful to Brother Six."
The sixth prince was silent for a while and said, "It is difficult to leave at this time to get to Tubo."
"What road can be easier to walk than the road in the palace?" Princess Anxing smiled faintly, "This is the nature of his father. Once he has something to do in his heart, he will not want to delay it for a day."
"I don't understand why he has to deal with Changsun!"
The sixth prince suddenly became a little angry and said with a grim expression: "Although Changsun's power is important, Changsun Wuji always likes to compete for power with his father for any matters, he is at most trying to make some profits for these families. He also works hard for matters related to the entire Tang Dynasty. Moreover, he is also a scheming person and respects the throne. No matter how much power he robs, he only wants to transform the Tang Dynasty according to his own ideas, and he will not rebel! What's more, half of the power of Changsun's family comes from Changsun Wuji's connections and accumulated power. As long as Changsun Wuji dies, Changsun and other families will naturally not be able to compete with Li. How old is Changsun Wuji, how old is his father? After more than ten years, Changsun Wuji is so old that he is old. Does Changsun Wuji have the energy and spirit of the moment?"
"I know you can guess it." Princess Anxing said calmly: "Maybe he was afraid that Changsun Wuji and the lineage of the previous Dai Daozi were together? But it was more likely that it was because of his temperament. People like him like to kill dragons in the storm. How could he wait for Changsun Wuji to die? If he had not had such a brave and courageous mind, he would not have won the strangle of the previous Li family and sat on the dragon throne."
The Sixth Prince's face looked ugly, but his breathing slowly calmed down.
"After all, I still feel that the lineage of Dai Daozi in the Depravity View was too powerful." He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. "As soon as the four-eared demon cat appeared, he was distracted unconsciously and was in a hurry to do anything. Now he wanted to replace all the important generals of the military towns around Chang'an with his own people at the fastest speed to avoid mutiny. But Changsun Wuji is much smarter than us, and who knows how much benefits he can get from this. Originally, everyone was working step by step, and no one could gain the upper hand, and it was under the situation where Changsun Wuji gave him some face. But his chaos..."
Speaking of this, the Sixth Prince was too lazy to say anything, but just kept sneering.
The reason why he fell out of favor and was confined was not because his previous thoughts about Changsun were contrary to the emperor.
In the mind of his father, he was the evil son who was crooked out of the Li family.
Princess Anxing knew that the sixth prince felt that the emperor could not take advantage of it, but she might have lost her wife and soldiers. However, she shook her head and said softly: "Use extraordinary means to use extraordinary methods, and his style has not changed."
The Sixth Prince's body shook, and he looked at Princess An Xing with a sharp look in an instant, "What do you know?"
"He asked me to go to Tubo, but he would look down on Tubo for a while, just to let Tubo not cause trouble for him during this period." Princess Anxing said calmly, "I'm just a guess, because just two days ago, my man heard a little chat with his father and Gao Da's companion. He said that he didn't know what Cui's behavior was. He could give the benefits that Cui could give to the Uighurs, and he could give even greater when it was appropriate."
The sixth prince narrowed his eyes slightly.
Most people will think that it is hidden when Princess An Xing says this, but for him, this is already a clear matter.
The temperament will not change.
Habitual behavior will not change.
A large part of the reason why he, the emperor, was able to finally take over the throne because he used the power of the Turks.
The Turks were very powerful back then, and his humble secret note made the Turks feel excited.
Now Tubo will not be able to use it for a while, so he will rely on the power of the Uighurs.
But the Uighurs today are incomparable to the Turks back then.
With the mirror of the Turks, the Uighurs who grew up stepping on the ruins of the Turks, now fully understand the cunning of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
Their internal structure is much more united now than the Turks in the past.
In the past, the Turks were still imperial courts formed by tribes, but now the Uighurs are already a real empire, a giant who is eyeing the Tang Dynasty.
Is it still possible to play the same trick against the Turks back then?
He can only say that he admires the confidence of the emperor.
"After I arrive in Tubo, I will find a way to pass on a copy of the news to you." Princess Anxing said with a smile.
The Sixth Prince knew that today was a real farewell.
Once this girl goes to Tubo, I don’t know if she will meet again in this life.
He took a deep breath again and stared at Princess Anxing's eyebrows, as if he wanted to remember her at this moment.
"Your word is also very interesting," he said at the same time.
Princess Anxing smiled and said, "I will find a way to pass on my fifth brother."
"I can understand you if you pass it on to my fifth brother. After all, he is like an outsider now, and he stays with Pei Yunqi and Lumou, and his future path is relatively wide." The Sixth Prince said seriously: "But what do you mean by choosing me in this palace?"
"There is a great opportunity. Anyway, my father just doesn't like you because your opinion is not in line with him. He will not be interested in killing you. No matter how bad you are, it will be like this. When the storm is on, I think you will have a chance to show off your strength." Princess Anxing suddenly smiled a little brighter, "But even if you can't wait for the opportunity to show off your strength, it's nothing. I chose you and the fifth brother because you both have your own principles. Also, you are the kind of people who really care about the Li family of the Tang Dynasty at the critical moment. If I have trouble in Tubo, I'm afraid other brothers will not be reliable, and you two are willing to help."
The Sixth Prince is not humble either.
He nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "There are some forces outside the pass, and he must have made some arrangements. You can try to get closer to him."
Princess Anxing seemed to be sure that he would say this, and a look of pride appeared in her eyes. She whispered: "Green Eyes are really good. Brother Six, you can try to get closer to him. I just let him know through Wang Ruoxu that there is someone like me, but he already felt that it was a bit sorry for me to let me marry him, and he had already made some arrangements for me."
The Sixth Prince was a little relieved.
He stopped talking.
He stood quietly for a moment, looking at this ambitious girl, he knew that it was time to say goodbye in the end.
He looked solemn, then bowed seriously, bowed to Princess Anxing, and said, "Take care."
Princess Anxing also replied seriously and said, "Take care too."
...
The next morning, a convoy slowly drove out of the palace.
There is no big show of farewell.
Princess Anxing left quietly.
In the eyes of Tangren, such a marriage kinship, it is definitely a sign of failure and is definitely not worthy of praise.
Even if it will eventually be recorded in historical books, apart from officials, not many people in Chang'an will know about it.
The sixth prince did not look out to the high place.
He stood in the empty courtyard, but the air in his body was finally uncontrollable.
There was a bang.
A circle of energy that could be seen in the naked eye appeared around him.
The dead grass between the cracks of the stones was broken one after another.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked up at the sky that had just become bright.
A good man like him actually needs a sister who married far away to worry about his depression.
Anxing, Anxing, do you want to shame me?
What he didn't know was that when the convoy drove out of the palace gate, the prince appeared on the gate of the palace.
The prince stared at the convoy, and then bowed to the convoy with great solemnity.
...
On the same morning, a convoy was also walking slowly in Youzhou City, preparing to leave the city.
Gu Liubai and Pei Yunqiu, the fifth prince walked slowly along with the convoy, discussing the information that Chen Tu forced him to confess.
"Cui's Dead Soldier?"
The fifth prince couldn't even understand, "What are the benefits of Cui doing this?"
Gu Liubai did not answer this question, but said: "According to their plan, the person they can survive this assassination will go directly out of Yangguan. After leaving Yangguan, someone will be able to answer."
The fifth prince frowned, "Has anyone found out who responded?"
"It's just a horse gang." Gu Liubai glanced at him and said, "The horse gang at the joint location he mentioned should be Uighurs."
"Cui and the Uighurs?" The fifth prince became increasingly unable to understand. "If so, they should be more low-key. How could they do such a thing?"
"I don't know what your emperor is going to do recently, but I think Dashi is probably a bit dangerous." Gu Liubai said: "As for Cui, I know they have always wanted to dominate that trade route."
The fifth prince's face suddenly became serious, "Do you suspect that my father and the Uighurs will join forces to deal with the big food first?"
Before Gu Liubai could reply, Duan Hongxing walked over quickly from the corner of the street without shyness, and directly handed the fifth prince a wax-sealed note to the fifth prince.
The fifth prince opened it and saw his eyes filled with shock, "Brother Fifteen, you have a brilliant idea."
"Is that so, what news?" Gu Liubai saw his appearance and knew that he must have received important news from Chang'an again.
"The first thing that Sister An Xing said was to ask me to thank you." The fifth prince said seriously: "She should have set out to Tubo today. She mentioned me, meaning that the emperor should want to use the method he used to deal with the Turks back then."
Pei Yunqi suddenly sneered, "Sure enough, I'm going to pay tribute to the Uighurs? Then, with the Uighurs, we will divide the big food first. Changsun just thought of a way to arrange a lot of people in the border army while the emperor was rotating. Now, he immediately asked a problem for Changsun. At that time, Changsun was dragged to fight against the big food, and Changsun Wuji would have to spend a lot of effort on the border army. Even if the emperor was too brave, would he be afraid that the Uighurs would come into the pass one day?"
The fifth prince pondered slightly and said, "He should think that he should first solve the big troubles in front of him. According to his current arrangement, he may have to completely control the military towns around Chang'an, and then use military power to force Changsun to fade out. He would not take Cui's like this. Cui's family could not go further in the Tang Empire. They do not have enough ability to launch mutiny and seize power, and are determined to seek development outside the pass. At least at this time, it is something my father is happy to see."
"This makes sense." Gu Liubai nodded, "The emperor has no energy to care about us at this critical moment, but if Cui wants to dominate the trade route and his friendship with the Uighurs is not deep enough, it will be impossible. The Uighurs have not been able to eat the black cavalry of the Turks in one bite before, and they probably have hated me. Cui probably has completely figured it out. If he wants to control the trade route outside the pass and carry out a lot of trade, it seems that the biggest obstacle is me... but they don't come first to discuss with me, don't they want to talk to me about business first?"
"How could a clan like Cui distribute the fat meat on the plate to others?" The fifth prince sighed, "Looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, I guess only when Li and Changsun asked them to divide the meat into pieces would they seriously consider where they could put their figures down and how could they change their usual style."
"Then they will be narrower in the road outside the pass in the future." Gu Liubai smiled, "Let's go to Cui's affairs first. What I want to discuss with you now is whether I want to be a messing stick in it?"
Pei Yunqi's eyes lit up. She had a good impression of Qinxiang. She had inexplicably sympathized with the big food that had not provoked anyone. Moreover, from the standpoint of the Tang people, she did not think that letting the Uighurs eat the big food really benefit the Tang Dynasty.
Now when she heard this, she felt that Gu Liubai seemed to want to eat a lot.
"You have thought about it." The fifth prince said solemnly: "If you help Dashi... I am afraid that the one who is troubled will be my Tang Dynasty border army. And pulling Changsun in the quagmire here will invisibly help my father. My father will definitely not be grateful to you because of this matter, but Changsun has also intensified the conflict with you."
"What you said makes sense." Gu Liubai thought for a while and said, "Qinxiang gave me a big gift. I owe her a favor, not to mention that it is unlikely that I can pull the big food out of this quagmire. I can only remind her master, at least not let her master die directly in the conspiracy."
Pei Yunqi smiled, "I think you are just annoying."
"It seems to be true. Maybe I can't help but want to do this just because I just hate him." Gu Liubai smiled embarrassedly and said, "This may be my human weakness? This cannot be changed."
"You, I always want everyone in the world to follow the rules and do business with you." Pei Yunqiu couldn't help but say, "But how many people in the world who hold power are willing to do business with others fairly?"
Gu Liubai said calmly: "Then I am still the style I used to be in Mingbaipo. If anyone does not abide by the rules, I will cut him down. This style cannot be changed."
Pei Yunqi frowned, "I can't be busy. The idiot second wife in my family and the Jin family of Xuzhou are going to deal with it. Now Cui also regards you as a thorn in his eyes. There is also the Uighur. Let's go back to Chang'an, Canglang Sword Sect, the third prince..."
Gu Liubai leaned against the carriage, looked at the streets and alleys of Youzhou City, and then looked at the direction outside the pass that was getting farther and farther away, and suddenly laughed, "Don't forget that if others don't follow the rules, I'm even more unruly. I'm very good at letting dogs bite dogs."
"Yes, you're the most doggy." Pei Yunqi smiled, and suddenly felt relieved.
Xu Tuibei stood on the city gate tower in Youzhou and watched the fun.
Actually, it's a farewell.
Without Gu Shiwu, there would not be Xu Tuibei in Youzhou.
It's just to watch out for each other, and there is no need to be polite.
He now remembers Gu Shiwu's teachings and should try his best to distinguish his relationship with Pei Yunqi from the outside world. When doing things, he should appear to be a capable person, so why should Pei Yunqi take care of him?
If you have nothing to do, you will pretend to be troubled by Heishawa's old injuries. The former fierce general was tortured by injuries and became a sick cat who could not go to the battlefield.
In this way, we can avoid being transferred back to the border army to fight.
Xu Tuibei now understands it.
For people like him, if you want to do things for the Tang Dynasty, you don’t just cut off a few more people.
Occupying a high position in the army, winning more connections, even if you just do something occasionally, it is more useful than cutting off the heads of hundreds of enemies.
The passionate blood in his youth has long been polished by reality to be cunning and fat.
He just couldn't understand why the difference between this person and his brain was so big, how old Gu Shiwu was, how could he see so clearly?
When they arrived at Heishawa, Yinshan was begging and Gu Shiwu seemed to be inconsistent. Following Gu Shiwu, the one-armed He Huoluo and the thin monkey Zhou Lu'er, but when they came to Youzhou from outside the pass and left Youzhou, the convoy was in a mighty manner. After walking for a long time, they still didn't see the tail of the convoy.
There are some top figures in this train of trainers in the world of cultivators, including Buddhist sects, Taoism, and the best students selected from Youzhou Academy, children of aristocratic families, and even the Li family’s direct lineage.
What kind of pomp is this?
Who else can do this in the world except Gu Shiwu, who is most convinced?
He was still feeling emotion, and Gu Shiwu let him see what it means to be a lively world that is in vain.
Gu Shiwu secretly sent someone to give him a small sheepskin roll.
The content on the small sheepskin roll is concise.
The old brother Xu Tuibei asked the old man who helped to bring a letter to the old man in the Chunfeng Tower of Mingbaipo and let the old man quietly say something, saying that the burying corpse in Mingbaipo did not want to see the people from the Cui family outside the pass, and did not want the caravans and horse gangs related to the Cui family to walk outside the pass.
Xu Tui's hair shattered the small sheepskin roll with his true energy.
He didn't think Gu Liubai was arrogant in the convoy. Instead, he thought, "She Cui was full and she was full and was so busy that she suddenly got crazy and went to provoke Gu Shiwu."
In the carriage driving, Gu Liubai started writing a second small pampering roll.
He has never been the kind of person who will endure it if he suffers losses.
If you do the first day of the lunar month, I will do the fifteenth day of the lunar month.
You must take revenge quickly, and he always acts like this. If you provoke me, then when I take revenge, I will destroy what you cherish the most first.
Although he left Mingbaipo, his foundation was still outside the pass.
And there are many people he can do now.
In addition to the horse thieves and Turks outside the pass, he was also the leader of the Buddhist sect of the Heavenly Kingdom, and he was able to keep in touch with Gao Yingjie of Jitai Pavilion.
