Chapter 289 Fame is very useful

Jia Lian figured it out.
The third prince secretly protects him is a scammer for Li. If Li discovered it, the third prince would probably be further and further away from the dragon throne.
If the third prince dares to bet like this, then he should also bet.
What's more, he has no other choice now.
"But I don't have a place to restrain you now. How do you guarantee that after I say everything, you won't kill me to silence me?" Jia Lian opened the skylight and said in a daze.
At this time, he subconsciously took a deep breath again.
But at least he wasn't in the pigpen anymore, and the smell was weak, so he had no adverse reaction this time.
He felt that after changing to his third prince and getting what he wanted, he would have to kill the disaster and silence him.
Gu Liubai, who disguised Cheng Ningshen, sighed and looked heart-wrenching: "Actually, if I was Mr. Jia, I would think so. Wait a moment and let me think about it and think of a way that Mr. Jia can trust."
Seeing that "Ning Shen" was so sincere, Jia Lian believed it a little bit. It happened that he was hungry at this time and there was a thunder in his stomach. Gu Liubai, who was originally frowning and contemplative, immediately smiled and said, "Mr. Jia changed in shock that night. I wonder if he knew the outcome of the green eyes on Qujiang and the Canglang Sword Sect's sword competition?"
Jia Lian was stunned. He didn't know what Gu Liubai's words meant at this time.
He looked at Gu Liubai with some confusion and said, "That night was a shocking change, but before I looked for a place to stay, I had already heard the trembling cheers on both sides of the Qujiang River. I think if Canglang Sword Sect wins, the spectators on both sides of the Taiwan Strait should not have such cheers and cheers."
"That night was too chaotic. It seems that Mr. Jia really had no time to take care of the excitement there. He hid before he knew the result of the battle." Gu Liubai smiled, "But that battle was indeed the same as Mr. Jia's inference. Green eyes won a great victory. Even Cui Baita, the genius of Cui's family, died in his hands, causing the sword of the third prince of my family to be taken away by the green eyes."
Jia Lian finally couldn't help but express his doubts, "What does this have to do with me?"
"This green eyes are so famous in the city, so you should know that he has a nickname outside the pass?" Gu Liubai was not slow and was not in a hurry at all.
"Mingbaipo burying the corpse?" Jia Lian was stunned and then reacted, "This person is a good deal in business. Could it be that you are trying to find a way to get him to guarantee it?"
The fifth prince bared his teeth when he heard this. Only a few powerful people in the city could think of Gu Laogou's method.
Gu Liubai said seriously, "Cui paid such a big price to kill him because no matter how much Cui paid, it was not as useful as his reputation. But I said that the burial corpse of Mingbaipo is not just because of his reputation. Do you probably know that he has a grudge with the Third Highness?"
Jia Lian nodded.
Not to mention that he is Lin Xiang's person, even if he is not Lin Xiang's person, or Shangguan Zhaoyi's father's man's thing, and he suffered such a big loss outside Yankangfang, he must have known about the third prince and the Green Eyes.
"This green eyes have a grudge against my third prince. He will definitely be happy to bring down the third prince." Gu Liubai looked at Jia Lian and said, "Shishou Jia, aren't you afraid of being silenced now? Why don't you do this? I will ban you a letter to him and I will help you pay for the custody. As long as you agree, as long as you die or don't come out to contact him within a few days, let him open the letter and read it. What do you think about this?"
Jia Lian took a breath of cold air.
He didn't expect that Ning Shen was so brave and dared to propose such an approach.
Gu Liubai was still inducing, "When Mr. Jia, think about it, there are so many powerful people in the city, no one is more popular with the people, and no one is more credible than him. Moreover, if this person does not enter the official career, he will not turn to the power of the court in a certain area. As long as he dares to take on your business, if something happens, he will continue to help you keep secrets or publish something to the public, I think he will do what you want, and he should have a way to do it very well. In addition, he and my third prince will definitely not deal with it, so what is more suitable and worthy of your trust in this city than him?"
"If you follow your method, he is indeed the best candidate." Jia Lian moved his Adam's apple up and down a few times before he continued with difficulty, "But this matter is so big, can you make the decision?"
"What's the point that can't be decided? Now I can take you to do this." Gu Liubai glanced at Jia Lian, looking like he was nothing big. "If it weren't for this, would you understand the determination of the third prince? He dared to gamble, don't you dare to gamble?"
Is Jia Lian a scholar or a famous poet in Chang'an?
But looking at Gu Liubai's slightly disdainful eyes, he immediately said the word "grass" in his heart as he heard this.
"What's wrong with the Third Prince?"
He stared at Gu Liubai with his neck straight. He now felt that the third prince must have been anxious and jumped over the wall and made a desperate attempt.
It is obvious that the third prince has lost power in the Li family because of Shangguan Zhaoyi and Green Eyes, and must have withdrawn from the battle for the dragon throne.
According to Li's temperament, the prince who withdrew from the dragon throne and was particularly prone to losing his head next.
The third prince probably felt that his head was about to fall off, so he didn't ask what he had mastered or what benefits could cooperation bring to him, so he just put on such a posture.
"You will take me to Yankangfang now."
Jia Lian's voice was a little louder, "As long as the green eyes take over this business, it will be beneficial to keep the third prince."
"Then let's make up that. Liang Xundao will take you to Yankangfang to do business. I'll deal with some clues here and arrange your dead soldier."
"Let's go."
The fifth prince wanted to laugh. He knew that when he returned to Yankangfang, the old gougoo would definitely become his true face and fool Jia Lian.
You said that the carriage slowly returned to Yankangfang, and the green eyes were in the Mingyue Train Pavilion. When Jia Lian saw him, he would never have thought that Ning Shen, who was talking to him, was the old gou in the Mingyue Train Pavilion.
...
The carriage is very clean.
It is normal for the driver and Liang Xundao to drive the car, and there is no murderous intention.
Jia Lian's nervous mood slowly relaxed.
He hid in the darkness of the carriage, looking at the city that seemed to suddenly become strange from the gaps in the curtains that swung up with the carriage.
Spring has already revealed clues.
Many willow trees have bloomed a little green.
He couldn't help but think of the spring of that year, and felt infinite emotion in his heart.
The conversations of ordinary people in the streets and alleys gradually came to my ears.
His brows gradually frowned again, and his face was gloomy and gloomy.
He heard too many curses.
And the targets of this curse were Lin Fu.
He began to wonder.
In the past many years, during the struggles in the court, although Lin Fu has gradually been called a poisonous figure by those families because of his power and ruthless means, he still has done things fairly, especially given many preferential treatment to many people at the bottom.
Simply put, in the years he has been in that position, the clans have suffered a great loss in his hands, but the ordinary people in Chang'an have gained a lot of benefits.
But the curses that kept coming into the ears, the tone of greeting Lin Fu was so vicious.
"Why?"
He couldn't help but look at the fifth prince and asked, "What crime did Li take for Lin Xiang? What kind of shit did he detain him? What kind of shit do these ordinary people have to do with him?"
The fifth prince shook his head and said, "Actually, he didn't take any shit to him. Even the rebellion just mentioned a few words lightly, and truthfully announced the evidence of his overlordship of the city. In the past two days, a group of lower-level officials in the market were dealt with."
"Bashi?" Jia Lian couldn't understand.
"You are also the backbone of the Lin Party. Don't tell me that you don't know that the main source of Lin Party's daily expenses is the tea business." The fifth prince looked at him and said calmly, "Lin Xiang is really a talent. He does not cater to the preferences of the world, but wants to make the world live out their preferences. He lets the Tang people drink tea and controls the supply of tea early. All the tea business in the big cities of the Tang Dynasty are controlled by your Lin Party. After the accounts over the years have been announced, every household in Chang'an City, calculate how much tea has been bought in the past ten years and how much more money has been spent. The more they calculate, the more angry he is. How can he not greet his mother? As for what good things Lin Xiang has done, can anyone still think of it? Isn't the good things he, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, do?"
Jia Lian felt unspeakable sadness.
He couldn't speak for a long time.
It was not far from Yankangfang that he said, "The merits and demerits can only be judged by later generations."
The fifth prince couldn't help but shook his head with emotion and said, "I don't know how many years later, what will have to do with us at that time? If you can do something now, do something."
Jia Lian didn't know how to reply for a while, but he just sighed deeply after all.
...
Acting must be realistic.
Before the fifth prince got off the carriage, he took two white iron masks and wore one by himself, and then gave Jia Lian one to him, so he could wear it too.
Jia Lian was a little stunned when he saw the fifth prince getting out of the car with a mask on his face, "Can you just go to discuss business with people in broad daylight?"
"This is Yankangfang, the green-eyed place. It is indeed a bit terrifying to go in to talk about things like this in other places, but what's the matter when you go to Mingyue Pavilion to talk about things?" The fifth prince smiled and asked Jia Lian to follow him.
Jia Lian saw that before the fifth prince entered the door, a scholarly man saluted seriously and asked, and he immediately felt a little different about the Mingyue Pavilion.
These green eyes are indeed not an ordinary person.
The fifth prince walked leisurely in the carriage. Gu Liubai had already returned to Mingyue Pavilion. When the announcement and inquiry were over, he had already recovered his true colors. He changed his clothes from head to toe. He took a hot bath before changing his clothes, and even smelled the fragrance in the quiet room.
As soon as he saw the fifth prince bringing Jia Lian in, his nose wrinkled exaggeratedly and said, "You two have such a big smell. Could it be that you two are pigs?"
Jia Lian's old face hiding behind the white iron mask suddenly turned red.
The fifth prince was also funny, laughed and said, "Mr. Gu really knew the beads with keen eyes and immediately realized the skills of both of us."
Gu Liubai is so good at pretending to behave like this. He laughed and said, "If you have any business to discuss with me, just say it. For me, pig farmers are no different from those officials, especially those who are willing to give 100 taels of silver if they fail to negotiate."
Only then did Jia Lian realize that the "Liang Xundao" had promised 100 taels of silver at the beginning.
"No wonder many people are optimistic about the third prince. Just look at the two confidants under the third prince so decisively. The third prince is better than the legends outside."
He suddenly felt that he didn't know enough about these third princes.
"That's the case."
The fifth prince smiled and pointed Jia Lian, saying, "Actually, it's such a business. He talked with my master about business, but he was afraid that after he told the truth, my master would get the benefits and silence him again. If my master wanted to destroy him, he would not have the ability to resist."
Gu Liubai said oh, saying, "That means he is worried about your master and wants to ask me to make a guarantee?"
The fifth prince nodded and said, "Actually, my master has no intention of destroying him, but in order to make him feel at ease in the transaction, he still has to trouble Mr. Gu to make a guarantee."
Gu Liubai smiled and said, "What's the trouble? I'm a businessman, I only look at the money and not the people. If there is enough money, you two will be the God of Wealth who comes to the door."
"Good!" The fifth prince slapped his thigh and said, "Then we don't have to tell you our identity. He just leaves a document for you here and seal it. Every ten days, he will appear in front of you. If one day exceeds ten days and he will disappear, you will make the contents of his document public. What do you think?"
Gu Liubai curled his smile and said calmly, "That seems to be a very hot potato, but no matter how hot it is, it depends on how much money you are willing to give."
The fifth prince pondered, "We can give three hundred gold, and every ten days will give hardware."
Gu Liubai said calmly, "Give three hundred gold first, and then every time you arrive, you will give ten gold each time."
The fifth prince nodded and said, "Yes."
Jia Lian was stunned.
He felt that there was hope that the negotiation would be successful, but he did not expect it to be so easy.
Looking at Gu Liubai with a calm face, he was about to say something, but a creepy aura shook in the courtyard outside.
Then, he heard the sound of sword energy breaking through the air.
After the sound of the sword energy breaking through the air disappeared, the creepy air conditioner still swept over like a tide.
That is the energy of the eighth-level practitioner!
Jia Lian's hands trembled slightly unconsciously, and he didn't know what was going on.
"Oh, it's okay." Gu Liubai smiled slightly and said, "There is a swordsman next to me practicing swords."
The fifth prince suddenly felt secretly happy.
This old gou Gu is good at creating an atmosphere.
This made Yin Shiniang use a sword in the yard. As soon as the aura exploded, Jia Lian probably no longer had any doubts.
Sure enough, Jia Lian's hands stopped trembling.
He was sure that this could not be the game made by the third prince.
The third prince does not have such a powerful swordsman under his command.
"Mr. Gu, I know you have the reputation of burying corpses outside the pass. Can I do a business with you?" Jia Lian suddenly said to Gu Liubai.
The third prince suddenly turned his head.
He looked shocked.
Because he is Liang Xundao now, he didn't say it in advance.
But Gu Liubai smiled faintly. He was now wearing much more profound clothes in front of Princess Huaizhen. Now he smiled like a master, "I said, as long as you have money, you can negotiate any business."
"I am writing some wishes I want to fulfill after an accident in the document I left for you. As for the reward, I will leave enough rewards directly in the document. Of course, if you feel that the reward is not enough to help me fulfill my wish, then you can choose not to do it. Anyway, I will not be in the world at that time." Jia Lian, wearing a mask, looked at Gu Liubai with a bright look.
Gu Liubai looked even more profound and said calmly, "Since you know the name of my corpse-burying man in Mingbaipo, you should know that even if the business partner is a dead person, I will never deceive him."
"Okay." Jia Lian's eyes were even full of gratitude.
Gu Liubai didn't say anything nonsense, and went out to call for personal preparation. After a while, someone sent a bunch of things to Jia Lian.
In addition to paper and pen, there is also a brass tube for wax seals, a deer-skin bag for mud seals, and a small purple wooden box.
This is obviously to let Jia Lian first use the brass tube to seal it with wax, and then put it into the deer skin bag mud seal.
The most confidential document transmission of the border army is nothing more than that, but here, a wooden box is added.
Looking at the seal next to it, Jia Lian knew that he would definitely have to use a seal to seal it in the end and fill it with wax in the gaps in the wooden box.
"You write first, and after writing, we will first wax seal the copper tube, and then we will come in again."
Jia Lian was admiring Gu Liubai's professionalism, but Gu Liubai had already invited the fifth prince to go out with him.
The fifth prince pretended to go outside to work, and brought a box of gold that Gu Liubai had prepared over.
After a while, Jia Lian was finished and called out to someone inside. The two of them entered the quiet room and watched Jia Lian put the copper tube into a deer skin bag, sealed it with mud, and then sealed it with a wooden box and put it on a seal.
When he saw Jia Lian's technique, Gu Liubai and the fifth prince knew that this man had done a lot of secrets.
After finishing this matter, the fifth prince and Gu Liubai were all working their own work. The fifth prince and Jia Lian got on the carriage. The carriage slowly walked in Yankangfang for a while, and actually went directly into a quiet courtyard in Yankangfang.
The fifth prince had taken off his mask at this time, smiled at Jia Lian, and said, "In the next few days, I will trouble Mr. Jia to settle here first. If Mr. Jia has any plans next, you can also tell me directly."
"I'll live in Yankangfang?" Jia Lian was shocked.
The fifth prince nodded and said, "Everyone in the city thinks that this green eye does not participate in political affairs, it is safest to stay here. Moreover, there are many experts here, and people who are not against them dare not come in easily."
Jia Lian felt that these two people under the Third Prince were really good at doing things.
On the other hand, in the quiet room of Mingyue Pavilion, as soon as the fifth prince and Jia Lian left, Pei Yunqi and Shangguan Zhaoyi secretly entered the quiet room.
The two of them looked at the wooden box with wax seals and seals, and were about to see what powerful methods did Gu Liubai use to take out the things inside without destroying these things.
As a result, the two beautiful girls' mouths suddenly opened enough to stuff an egg.
Gu Liubai slapped it casually, smashed the wooden box with a bang, and then directly destroyed the mud seal roughly, took out the brass tube inside, then crushed the wax seal, and took out the paper roll inside.
"If you...if Jia Lian is useful and can still use a long line to catch big fish, then he will come over and take a look at the wooden box, and you will smash it like this. Will you show up with him directly?" Pei Yunqi couldn't help asking.
"Hi." Gu Liubai said, "It's hard to sort out anything else. You can't just put such wooden boxes with the same wax seal on them casually? He didn't know that his wooden boxes were broken."
Gu Liubai smiled and began to look at the contents on the scroll.
Chapter completed!
