Peng Mu then asked, "Do you know how much inventory they still have?"
Gu Yingxue looked hesitant, as if she didn't want to speak but dared not not to.
Peng Mu coldly demanded, "Speak!"
Gu Yingxue shuddered in fright, then cried out, "There are quite a lot. As far as I know, there are several warehouses stockpiled in Kuncheng's camp!"
Lange Wang and Peng Mu were shocked, then looked at Lin Gui.
Lin Gui looked at Gu Yingxue: "Miss, don't talk nonsense. How could there be several warehouses?"
Gu Yingxue argued, "Yes! You're Uncle Lin, right? Although I don't know how you've changed, I can recognize your voice. It's clearly from several warehouses. Two months ago, Sister Niannian came back to Kuncheng from the capital and brought these back. Do you think that just because we can't make this many in Kuncheng, we can't do it in the capital? My grandfather and the others knew there were spies in the camp, so they didn't make a big fuss about it."
I'll scare you to death, huh!
Lin Gui was also a little unsure, because the old general rarely went to the camp, and usually when the general gave a report, it was just the father and son, and he couldn't be there to listen.
Peng Mu stared at Gu Yingxue for a long while before saying, "Then why didn't they bring these things with them when they attacked? That way, they could probably destroy Langge Kingdom in a few days."
Gu Yingxue shrugged: "How would I know? I only know about the warehouses because Sister Niannian let it slip. Maybe they think Sister Xinxin and I are in your hands! Or maybe they want to wait for you to call in those Yunhai tribe people so they can wipe us out in one fell swoop! By the way, where is Sister Xinxin? Can you lock Sister Xinxin and me together? I want to talk to someone."
King Lang and Peng Mu exchanged a glance. It seemed that the Gu and Peng families were unaware that Gu Xin was not in Lang Kingdom!
That's something we can use. We can just replace Gu Xin with someone else and cover their face.
If one Gu Yingxue isn't enough to threaten us, what about another Gu Xin?
I simply don't believe that the two powerful figures in Kuncheng really don't care about their children at all.
Gu Yingxue looked at the two of them innocently: "I've told you everything, I don't know anything else. Can you lock me up with Sister Xinxin?"
King Lang snorted coldly: "That girl is cunning and has tried to escape many times. She's on the verge of death in prison. If you go, won't she just have another person to help her escape?"
Gu Yingxue lowered her head. "You old geezer, trying to outsmart me, huh..."
When Gu Yingxue looked up again, her eyes were already filled with tears: "Is Sister Xinxin alright? Can I go and take care of Sister Xinxin? I won't run away, really. I don't know kung fu, and I'm so weak I can't even lift a bucket of water, so I can't escape even if I wanted to!"
King Lang's mood improved slightly, but he said coldly, "Take her away and keep a close watch on her!"
Gu Yingxue cried and made a fuss, wanting to find her sister Xinxin, but no one paid any attention to her.
When she returned to her room, she cried for a long time before covering her head and going to sleep.
She's released such a big announcement, so she'll probably be left alone for a while. She's confident she can take down the people outside and escape.
So, in order to escape smoothly tonight, she wants to get a good night's sleep now. Even if she can't escape tonight, she'll always find a chance.
...
That night, Peng Mu left the palace very late and went to Cheng Huaiyu's place in a bad mood.
Cheng Huaiyu was woken up by him in her sleep. She was thinking of pleasing Peng Mu, but Peng Mu slapped her twice as a result.
