Gu Nian recounted her experiences over the past few days, and she guessed that the masked man was the King of Southern Xinjiang.
Xue Qianyu also recounted the situation on the north slope at that time.
When he received the letter and the bracelet, he immediately thought of the bracelet he had given to Gu Nian.
There was a very secret and ingenious mechanism on that bracelet, which only he knew about.
Moreover, he had seen that Gu Nian hadn't discovered the mechanism yet, so she had been wearing it on her hand. He guessed that the masked man hadn't found the mechanism either.
Without knowing where the mechanism is, it would be very difficult to remove the bracelet from Gu Nian's hand unless you cut off her hand.
Therefore, when he arrived at the North Slope, he would bring up the bracelet, pretending to be someone who loved but couldn't have it. While saying those two sentences to Gu Nian, he was also pointing out the direction for her. Only when he saw that Gu Nian's finger touched the mechanism of the bracelet that launched the hidden weapon did he turn around.
He didn't sleep all night, thinking about three scenarios in which he could ensure Gu Nian's safety.
Fortunately, the girl he liked wasn't stupid at all, and the bracelet he had spent a lot of money to have made by a master craftsman also served its purpose.
The details of the matter are clear now. It can be confirmed that the masked man is the King of Southern Xinjiang. There is a spy on their side, and he is a very close one. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to know with such certainty that Gu Nian could threaten Xue Qianyu.
During the few days that the masked man brought Gu Nian to the North Slope, he heard a lot of what the masked man said along the way. He mentioned the messages he had received.
So who exactly leaked this information to him?
Also, is the masked King of Southern Xinjiang dead or alive?
Gu Shouxin and his men had just brought the two unconscious men back to the camp and had the surrounding area searched, but there was no sign of anyone having moved there.
Xue Qianyu remained silent for a while before saying, "If you want to escape, that's the only way down the cliff on the north slope."
Gu Shouxin: "There's no use saying all this now. Your deputy general said you've arranged an operation; are you planning an attack?"
Xue Qianyu nodded: "Yes. There are two routes in total. I have 20,000 men under my command, and they will attack the two routes separately. The camp here will be guarded by the water troops. Lu Er told me about the situation on his side. There are less than 10,000 people still struggling in the southern border. The rest of the places have been occupied by him and Peng Sanlang. His idea is that we should guard Linshan. I sent him a letter, and we will attack!"
Xue Qianyu paused, glanced at Gu Nian, and said in a colder tone, "Once we cross Linshan, it's all my Great Zhou's territory. It's no fun killing enemies on our own land. If we're going to kill, let's go to their territory and have a good time!"
Jinghe smiled and said, "Xue Xiaoer, if it weren't for Niannian's matter, were you planning to cooperate with Zhou Yuan?"
Xue Qianyu did not answer, but the expression on his face said it all.
Gu Shouxin glanced at Xue Qianyu and pondered, "I have a way to help you achieve the best results with the fewest people. Come with me."
Xue Qianyu followed Gu Shouxin out.
Princess Jinghe poked Gu Nian with a grin: "A hero saving a damsel in distress!"
Gu Nian: "...Sister Zhen, please stop laughing at me! I've already had enough bad luck. Let's talk about who's most likely to have made contact with Southern Xinjiang!"
Princess Jinghe supported her shoulders, helping her to fall down: "Sister, don't worry. Haven't you been tired enough in these four days? Get some sleep! Once they bring the King of Southern Xinjiang here, we'll know who it is."
Gu Xin held Gu Nian's hand: "That's right, sister, you should rest well. You've lost weight. Mother will definitely be sad if she sees you like this. You don't know, when she saw Bai Er's appearance and you weren't there, Mother was so scared that she fainted."
