On the way back from the dungeon, Gu Xin came up with two ideas.
One of these methods was to conceal the identity of the princess of the Flowing Sand Kingdom and approach the sand bandits by pretending to be a girl from the Great Zhou Kingdom who had been stranded in the desert, or more precisely, to approach Mo Fei's mother.
However, this is quite troublesome, because the stronghold of the Sand Bandits is in the desert. It is not an easy task to find out their whereabouts and then take the opportunity to approach their leader's wife in a very natural way.
The second option is to lead the entire army of the Flowing Sand Kingdom directly to the lair of the Sand Bandits, and incidentally obtain a token from Mo Fei, claiming that Mo Fei sent them. This would give them an opportunity to mention the Great Zhou Dynasty. However, the other side might not believe this approach; instead, they might think that Mo Fei has already fallen victim to their schemes.
Both approaches have their advantages and disadvantages.
Gu Xin wasn't confident in directly attacking with troops like she had dealt with Mo Fei and his group. After all, it was their stronghold, and they had multiple burrows, so there was no guarantee that she could take it down smoothly.
Especially Mo Fei's parents, who have lived in the desert for more than 20 years by their own abilities, established the Salon Gang, and have never had their stronghold found by other countries, seem to be good at neither literature nor martial arts!
Even if you're homesick, you still need to convince people of your feelings!
The ruler of the Flowing Sand Kingdom stroked his beard and shook his head: "Both of these methods are somewhat flawed."
Gu Xin looked at the King of Liusha with humility: "Uncle Jun, do you have any good ideas?"
The King of Liusha looked at Gu Xin with satisfaction. This girl was very good; she was neither arrogant nor impatient. Indeed, the genes of the Dugu family were excellent!
My eldest sister said that each of my aunt's granddaughters is exceptionally outstanding; I really want to know what the first two girls are like.
The ruler of the Flowing Sand Kingdom glanced at Cheng Huaijin: "Ah Hai, what do you think?"
Cheng Huaijin thought for a moment and said, "If we use Xin Xin's two methods, and one of them is not handled well, it will deepen the misunderstanding between us. In the previous situation, Xin Xin's two methods would have worked. But not now. Since we know that they are people of the Great Zhou and have the Great Zhou in their hearts, we should try to move them with sincerity."
The ruler of the Flowing Sand Kingdom raised an eyebrow: "Continue."
Cheng Huaijin looked at Gu Xin, who waved her hand and said, "Brother Jin, just tell me! I'm not suited for scheming and trickery; I prefer to subdue people with force. I had to use some poison to barely handle the younger ones, so I'm afraid even poison wouldn't be enough for the older ones. Besides, the other side consists of two big shots who broke into the palace as commoners to kill the queen and prince. I can't afford to be careless."
Cheng Huaijin realized he had been petty and cupped his hands in apology to Gu Xin, saying, "I'm sorry, Xin Xin, I was being narrow-minded. I thought you would be angry."
Gu Xin glared at him: "Of course I'm angry! How can you think I'm so petty? Then I'll punish you by making sure you keep Xiao Yu by your side when you go back this time, and don't let her hurt herself."
Cheng Huaijin chuckled.
How fortunate they were to have met the Gu family.
He's seventeen this year, and he can already understand that someone was pulling the strings behind the scenes when his family had their troubles.
But he never thought of blaming anyone. His father had broken the law and deserved to be punished. His maternal grandfather had committed a serious crime and deserved to be punished.
No one pushed things along; it was only a matter of time before his father, his maternal grandfather, and their family ran into trouble. No one can be blamed.
As descendants of disgraced officials, the siblings were spared their lives and should thank those who helped them. They must live well so as not to betray the new life given to them by their benefactors and to be worthy of the sacrifices others made.
