Gu Qingcheng received accurate information about Mu Xiu's return and continued to improve her plan.

…

Yuwen Heng sneaked back to Pingcheng and found Bu Liuhuxin according to the location and contact method told by Gu Youyi.

He took out the token of Bu Liuhuxin's sister, indicating that he had found this woman long ago and properly settled her.

When Bu Liuhuxin saw the token, he was indeed surprised and delighted.

The dark and strong man like an iron tower suddenly started crying.

This is his only relative.

When his mother passed away, she held his hand and told him to find his sister who had been sold by her master.

More than ten years have passed, and Bu Liuhuxin still remembers his mother's last words.

And he has been searching for it for the past ten years.

Now, there is finally news about his sister, and Bu Liuhuxin’s wish is finally going to be fulfilled.

Bu Liuhuxin first cried with joy, then he knelt down and kowtowed to his "benefactor" with a silly look on his face.

"Thank you! Thank you, young master!"

He kowtowed and expressed his gratitude, Bu Liuhuxin was extremely grateful.

The attitude is extremely pious and sincere.

He is like a man with strong limbs and a true character, and he has the simplest and most primitive gratitude towards his benefactor.

And then, nothing happened!

This is not what Yuwen Heng needs.

He doesn't want Bu Liuhuxin's gratitude, what he wants is his "cooperation"!

Yuwen Heng narrowed his eyes, trying to see through Bu Liuhuxin's "silly" appearance and see through his true nature.

Is this guy really a simple-minded person with strong limbs, or is he just pretending to be stupid and playing dumb?

Yuwen Heng prefers the latter.

Because it is impossible for a stupid person to become a general leading troops into battle from being just a horse slave.

This person is also the confidant of the Grand Chancellor.

Even Yuwensong, who had been keeping an eye on the Grand Chancellor, was unaware of his existence and his importance to him.

He is definitely not an ordinary person.

Yuwen Heng didn't want to waste time testing or lobbying, so he directly showed his "sincerity":

"General Bu Liuhu, I would like to marry your sister."

A gleam of light flashed in Bu Liuhuxin's silly eyes.

He pretended to be confused and asked, "I remember that there is already a female ruler in the young master's mansion."

"My wife was frail and passed away early this month!"

…

Relying on the most stable marriage relationship, Yuwen Heng and Bu Liuhu Xin formed an alliance.

Yuwen Heng ran to apologize to his father again.

He knelt in front of Yuwensong like the most filial and respectful son.

He used the simplest body language to tell his father: Old man, your son surrenders.

Your son will help you build your empire and become your heir!

They are actually father and son, but they both have ambitions.

Now that his son was willing to give in and fulfill his father's ambition first, instead of letting him become the emperor or simply giving him a posthumous title, Yuwen Song forgave him.

With father and son joining forces, and Bu Liuhu Xin, the general of the Northern Camp outside the capital, as an "inside supporter", the countdown to the Grand Chancellor's retirement has officially begun...
