"Qiqi. Don't enter the space for the time being." Gu Beiheng noticed that there was a group of people with strong hiding abilities. If Long Tianyi hadn't told him the key points, he wouldn't have noticed it.
"Who?"
"It might be a dragon guard." Gu Beiheng uttered these words lightly.
The two did not let the shadow guards know their route, and even left marks for them to return to the Prince Zhan's Palace.
Gu Beiheng and Su Qi took Long Wei for a ride in Dongqi Capital.
The two finally thought of a place, why not take a drive to the yard in the suburbs.
Gu Beiheng and Su Qi disguised themselves with Yue Jiushao's token and blended in with the people leaving the city. They arrived at the outskirts and followed the path the secret guard had mentioned.
Before reaching the destination, Gu Beiheng sensed a presence coming towards him.
Su Qi took him into the space.
Several figures approached, but after searching for a while, they couldn't find anyone. Finally, they had to split up and continue searching.
After things quieted down, the two of them left the space.
After a few takeoffs and landings, they searched that place and saw Long Xuancheng riding a horse coming from a distance.
It seems that he is here to seek help.
Gu Beiheng and Su Qi hid themselves and waited for Long Xuancheng to pass by before they appeared and followed him.
Long Xuancheng was anxious, losing his usual caution. He arrived at the courtyard gate and knocked directly. The knocks were so rapid that the servant didn't have time to speak when he opened the door. He had already squeezed in.
The servant glanced back and forth a few more times and then closed the door.
Su Qi and Gu Beiheng looked at each other, and they knew that Long Xuancheng had come to ask for advice.
"Let's go."
The two of them used the space to sneak into the courtyard. The courtyard was heavily guarded, and it was impossible to approach the main courtyard for the time being. Gu Beiheng realized that these shadow guards were much more powerful than ordinary shadow guards.
The two men quietly walked around but couldn't get close to the main courtyard, so they had to run towards the warehouse.
The warehouse is very big and contains a lot of good things.
Even common items like gold and silver were plentiful, including statues crafted from pure gold, red coral half a man's height, and all sorts of rare treasures.
Su Qi stared with her eyes wide open.
"Our Gu family army is like a money-making machine. Without these warehouses, I really can't make some money." Su Qi wanted to laugh when he thought of Long Xuancheng and the people behind him seeing the empty warehouses.
Gu Beiheng looked at Su Qi lovingly. He supported Su Qi in searching everything here.
I visited two warehouses in a row.
Su Qi stopped moving for the time being, and the two of them hid in the dark and waited for the opportunity.
After a while.
Su Qi saw Long Xuancheng coming out with half of his face swollen. He must have been beaten up inside. He hung his head dejectedly, and when he occasionally raised his head, a sinister look appeared on his face.
"Gu Beiheng. I'm going to bury your family with me."
Su Qi's heart skipped a beat as she thought of the four children still on the way, as well as Qin Wan and Yun Manyu. "Beiheng, mother and the others?"
"The shadow guards around the War King have been dispatched." Gu Beiheng put his arm around Su Qi's shoulders. "Our people have also picked them up. You should relax. We have to stay in the capital to contain the people behind Long Xuancheng."
"Okay." Su Qi relaxed a little.
There was a movement of figures, and a middle-aged man walked out of the house.
He looked very similar to Long Xuancheng, and he hurried out of the yard.
In the void, a figure swayed.
Many shadow guards followed the middle-aged man out.
Su Qi and Gu Beiheng did not follow him out. There was no shelter for a long distance outside, and it would be easy for people to find them.
Wait until people leave.
The two sneaked into the main courtyard.
Gu Beiheng didn't look at the things carefully, but let Su Qi search them thoroughly. He found a secret room in the study, and Su Qi took away everything in it.
One of the cabinets was filled with correspondence. Seeing that some of the letters were quite old, Gu Beiheng and Su Qi had some guesses.
I'm afraid there are too many secrets here.
The two did not dare to stay any longer, so they looted everything here and left.
Gu Beiheng took Su Qi on a shopping spree in the capital, and they went to the shops of Yue Jiushao and Zhan Wang.
The appearance of the two of them caused a sensation in the capital of Dongqi.
Many curious people came to watch, and the shopkeeper of the Zhan Wang's shop served them with great care. They knew that Long Xuancheng would be nothing from now on, and the man before them was the boss who held the power over their life and death.
Su Qi picked out a lot of fashionable materials.
She didn't care about the opinions of the ladies in the shop. She listened to the shopkeeper's introduction and chose every pattern.
"Here are two sets of clothes, the colors and patterns are suitable for mother."
"Yuebao likes this pink one. Xibao likes this light yellow one."
"Dabao and Erbao like these two colors."
Gu Beiheng stood by and only said "good" when Su Qi spoke. "I'll take care of all this and send it to Prince Zhan's mansion."
"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to deliver it right away."
A young lady who was buying fabric in the same shop had an unhappy expression on her face. She looked at Su Qi, who was wearing a simple casual dress and had two wooden hairpins on her head, and the style of the pearl hairpins was not up to par with the fashion.
He buys fabric like a nouveau riche.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Hurry up and buy it. How could we get such treatment in Dashun before? I don't know who came from the mountains and dared to steal Brother Xuan's things."
Someone pulled the sleeve of the girl who was speaking.
"County Lady, please keep your voice down."
"What are you afraid of? You are afraid of a country woman, but I am not afraid."
Su Qi didn't expect that Long Xuancheng's bad love affairs would add to her troubles.
"How dare a county lady be so arrogant?" Su Qi looked at the shopkeeper with a stern expression. "Don't serve her in the shop of Prince Zhan's Mansion anymore."
"Yes, ma'am, I'll pass the order down right away."
Everyone present was stunned. They actually listened to the words of a daughter-in-law who had just returned home. Was Prince Zhan getting senile?
The county lady did not expect this, and angrily asked the maid beside her to slap Su Qi.
In the end, he was slapped by the shadow guard who followed Su Qi.
The incident alarmed many people in the capital, which was exactly what Su Qi and Gu Beiheng wanted. After leaving the shop, the two were once again assassinated.
Even on the street, a group of people rushed forward with swords drawn.
Gu Beiheng pulled Su Qi and jumped into the yard next to him.
Someone in the yard picked up a sword and started fighting. During the fight, the man accidentally glanced at the jade pendant on Gu Beiheng's waist.
He quickly asked his men to stop the people outside.
He clasped his fist towards Gu Beiheng:
"Benefactor. Please accept my greeting."
Gu Beiheng was confused. When did he save Dong Qi's people?
The man in black didn't have time to explain, only telling Gu Beiheng and Su Qi to follow him. He had once saved a group of them in the forest on the border of Great Yue. "I'm the owner of Feiying Tower. We were trapped in the Dream Valley at the time."
Speaking of Dream Valley, Su Qi remembered who it was.
I saved them casually at that time without telling them their names.
The man seemed to see Su Qi's doubts and pointed at the jade pendant on Gu Beiheng's waist and said, "We have traveled all over the country looking for our benefactor, but we have never seen a second jade pendant like this."
"Take us away."
Gu Beiheng didn't say much.
The owner of Feiying Building took Su Qi and Gu Beiheng and left through the secret passage.
By the time we reached the exit, we were already outside the capital. In a nearby town was the headquarters of Feiying Building.
The host invited Su Qi and Gu Beiheng to go to Feiyinglou Qiaozhuang before leaving.
Gu Beiheng immediately knew what kind of business Feiyinglou was doing and immediately wanted to make friends. He nodded to Su Qi, and the two of them went to Feiyinglou headquarters.
Several of the captains in Feiying Building were rescued by Su Qi and his team. Naturally, they were very grateful to them and came forward to pay their respects.
The host waved his hand and asked his subordinates to leave, except for two of his closest people.
"Mr. Gu, Madam Gu, if there's anything you need our Feiying Building to investigate, please let us know. Our Feiying Building's archives contain many things that are hidden from outsiders."
The owner of Feiying Tower wanted to repay his benefactor, and after learning about Gu Beiheng's background, he wanted to join him.
Seeing Gu Beiheng nod, Su Qi asked the people from Feiying Tower to tell them the gossip about several major forces in the capital.
