"I don't want to touch it today. Let's talk about it another day."

Jiang Jiang rejected Gu Yanqing's tempting proposal.

After all, she is... a bit timid.

She is both naive and loves to flirt, this is her!

In fact, Jiang Jiang originally just wanted to use this joke to tease Gu Yanqing. She liked to see him blushing and shy.

Who knew that Gu Xiang was secretly practicing without her knowledge!

Today, not only did he not blush, he even learned how to flirt back!

hateful!

He was tricked!

Capital city, Xue Mansion.

The carriage moved forward leisurely and soon arrived at the destination.

Gu Yanqing pulled Jiang Jiang out of the carriage. Jiang Jiang looked around and found that the carriage was parked right at the back door of Xue Mansion.

At this time, Gu Yanqing had taken the initiative to knock on the door a few times. Soon a middle-aged man opened the door and looked at Gu Yanqing respectfully.

"Minister Gu, please come in." The middle-aged man stood straight with a murderous look on his face. It was obvious that he was a veteran soldier who had been on the battlefield for many years.

Gu Yanqing nodded and pulled Jiang Jiang into the house.

Along the way, Gu Yanqing didn't say a word, but just held Jiang Jiang's hand silently.

The two followed the middle-aged man through the backyard and corridors, all the way to the reception hall of Xue Mansion.

At this time, there were already two figures waiting in the reception room.

Although the old man in the lead looked to be in his fifties, he still had sharp eyes, a strong aura, and an oppressive feeling that ordinary people did not have.

Is this General Xue Hua?

Before Jiang Jiang had time to take a closer look, he was stopped by a familiar voice.

"Jiang Jiang, why are you here!"

This sound is...

Jiang Jiang was startled, and when she looked up, she saw the tall and straight figure standing behind Xue Hua.

"Second brother?" The figure was none other than Li Ershan.

Li Ershan didn't seem to expect to meet Jiang Jiang here. He looked at Jiang Jiang in surprise, and then noticed Gu Yanqing beside Jiang Jiang.

This person... looks familiar, maybe...

Li Ershan was recalling the past while Xue Hua beside him had already taken a few steps forward with a big laugh and came in front of Gu Yanqing.

"Mr. Gu, long time no see! You are becoming more and more charming and dashing!"

"General Xue, you're too polite." Gu Yanqing smiled faintly, then said softly: "General Xue, this is Miss Jiang Jiang, she is also a fellow traveler with us."

Fellow traveler?

Xue Hua looked at Jiang Jiang. The girl in front of him was sweet and lovely. She didn't look like Gu Yanqing's kindred spirit at all, but...

Xue Hua noticed that the hand under the girl's cloak was holding Gu Yanqing's hand.

Tsk tsk, it seems that these “fellow travelers” are more than just “fellow travelers”.

and……

"Miss Jiang Jiang, do you know my adopted son?" Xue Hua looked at Jiang Jiang, then looked at Li Ershan behind him, thinking to himself, the fate between people in this world is really wonderful!

A quarter of an hour later, several people had already taken their seats in the reception room.

Li Ershan sat opposite Jiang Jiang, looking at Jiang Jiang for a while and then at Gu Yanqing.

At this time, Li Ershan had already remembered that the inestimable man in front of him was the scholar he and Jiang Jiang met on the official road.

I think his last name is Yan?

At that time, Li Ershan felt that there was something wrong with this Master Yan, but he didn't expect that he was actually the left prime minister Gu Yanqing!

Why did Gu Yanqing pretend to be a poor scholar to get to know Jiang Jiang?

What is their relationship now?

At this time, Li Ershan's mind was full of questions, while Jiang Jiang, who was sitting opposite him, was much calmer.

Just now, Xue Hua had told them how he met Li Ershan.

It has to be said that a child of luck is a child of luck.

Li Ershan went out to explore the world and not only accepted a very talented apprentice, but also brought back a lovely and mysterious little girl. He even saved General Xue on the way and became his adopted son.

Wow, there's really no comparison, no comparison!

**

In the reception room, Xue Hua looked very serious.

"Minister Gu, this is some evidence I collected at the border this time."

As Xue Hua spoke, he handed a stack of files to Gu Yanqing: "I suspect the person behind those who sold people is Kong Liangzhen."

Kong Liangzhen.

Hearing this name, Gu Yanqing's eyes lit up. He took the files that Xue Hua handed to him and began to read them very carefully.

Although there is no direct evidence here, there are still a lot of indirect evidence that can show that the Kong family has a close relationship with that group of people who are being trafficked.

"Thank you for your hard work, General Xue. This evidence is very important!"

Gu Yanqing solemnly put away the file Xue Hua had given him and slowly said, "I have some preliminary evidence that Liu Qizhang is connected to the bandits in Blood Tiger Ridge, but this evidence is not enough to kill Kong Liangzhen and Liu Qizhang right away. We need more evidence and more allies."

"More allies?" Xue Hua was slightly stunned when he heard Gu Yanqing's words. Now most of the affairs in the court were controlled by those nobles. It was really difficult to find new allies with a say among them.

"General Xue, in this world, there are no permanent friends, nor permanent enemies."

As if he saw Xue Hua's confusion, Gu Yanqing smiled and took out an exquisitely shaped token from his sleeve. The back of the token was engraved with extremely intricate patterns.

The moment he saw the token, Xue Hua's pupils trembled slightly.

"you……"

"Maybe, this time, we don't need three years." Gu Yanqing's tone was very confident.

…………

"Ginger ginger."

Li Ershan, who was sitting nearby, secretly ran over to sit next to Jiang Jiang and whispered, "What are they talking about? Can you understand?"

Jiang Jiang winked at Li Ershan and said, "Shh, don't talk, just listen carefully. Even if you don't understand, pretend to understand."

Li Ershan: I learned it!

Li Ershan sat directly next to Jiang Jiang, gathered his energy in his dantian, straightened his body, and displayed the demeanor of a master.

Jiang Jiang on the side was speechless. I asked you to pretend that you can understand, not to pretend that you are a hermit.

The movement of the two people caught Gu Yanqing's attention, and he couldn't help but look at Li Ershan twice more.

Li Ershan suddenly felt as if he was being stared at by some ferocious beast.

Yes, it’s this mysterious feeling!

When Li Ershan first met Gu Yanqing, he sensed an unknown danger from him. At that time, Li Ershan relied on his extraordinary sensitivity to sense the subtle danger from Gu Yanqing.

However, his skills were still shallow at that time, and he had no idea how powerful Gu Yanqing was.

Now Li Ershan himself is already a master. As the saying goes, an expert knows the ins and outs of things. He sensed Gu Yanqing's strength almost instantly.

So strong!

Everyone in the capital knows that Prime Minister Gu is a talented writer and the head of the civil servants. No one expected that he is also a top martial arts master!

This pretty boy is indeed a big liar!
