After Gu Nancheng discussed it with the prince, he decided to go find the ambassador of the Western Pavilion again.
The ambassador just lost the contract, and now this man comes to him again. It is inevitable to think that these people are in the same group.
But if such a fat sheep comes to his door, he won't be too polite.
Gu Nancheng thought that he had become attached to the Westerners from then on, but he had no idea that the other party was taking advantage of him.
A few months later, the prince, a shrewd man, realized something from these events: "These Westerners are simply taking us for fools."
Gu Nancheng's face didn't look too good either. After all, it was he who had vowed that he could establish connections with Westerners.
They have made some small money now, but what they paid is obviously much greater.
Liu Xuening listened from the side and also said, "If that's the case, then we can find other people to cooperate with."
Her words obviously reminded the two men, and they both fell silent for a moment.
Wuxin told Fu Yunxi about their conversation at the palace so that she could prepare in advance.
In their past lives, these individuals had been restless. Following Liu Xuening's advice, they had engaged in numerous acts of treason. However, they were cautious and ultimately distanced themselves from the situation, living peacefully instead.
She will definitely make those who harm the people pay the price.
After Liu Xuening became pregnant, she would go out of the house to buy some things. When she passed by a store selling kesi round fans, she thought the fans were very exquisite, so she stayed to take a closer look.
At this time, someone was heard whispering, "The world is becoming increasingly unstable. Not only are the Westerners eyeing us covetously, but even our neighboring countries, the Easterners, have been making a lot of moves recently."
Nowadays, everyone reads newspapers and is naturally more informed. When Liu Xue Ning heard about the neighboring country, she had an idea and decided to continue listening.
"It seems the Japanese want to support the people of the previous dynasty and oppose the current warlords." Another person said, "I'm afraid there will be another war."
There was an unspeakable worry in her tone, but she was a woman after all, and didn't know much information. Liu Xue Ning felt that she could not hear any more information, so she planned to go back and discuss this matter with the prince.
She told the prince this happily, "I think we don't have to rely on Westerners, we can also look at other countries."
When the prince heard her say this, he guessed what she had heard outside, "Are you talking about the East Asian country?"
He had actually considered it, because the Japanese country was willing to help him restore the previous dynasty in order to overthrow the current government, which was very tempting.
But unlike Westerners who only wanted money, Easterners were after power. If you conspired with them, you would be doomed.
Seeing that the prince was still hesitating, Liu Xuening immediately said, "Prince, this is our last chance. Without the support of the East Asian nation, your ambitions will never be realized."
Liu Xuening's words penetrated the prince's ears like a magic sound. Now that he was with her every day, even if he was a little hesitant now, he would be more shaken after hearing her a few more times.
The one who designed this incident in the store was naturally Fu Yunxi. Anyway, these people had no patriotism at all. Instead of letting them do it themselves, it would be better to control their actions in his own hands and get evidence of their treason.
Qiao Mochen is now also secretly building up his own power. With the financial support from Fu Yunxi, he is doing this very smoothly. He is just waiting for the day when the warlords bully the people again and then he will join the revolutionary army.
Gu Nancheng also met the Japanese. Compared with the Westerners, the Japanese were more polite.
However, Gu Nancheng couldn't understand the language they spoke, even with the help of their translator. But there was no translator during their casual conversation, so he could only sit there in confusion until the two parties signed a contract.
"This man was sent by the prince." A tall, bearded man said with a hint of ridicule in his tone, speaking in the language of the Oriental country, "This man doesn't look very smart."
"This prince of the previous dynasty is just a puppet we use, not to mention this subordinate." Another short man with shorter hair spoke up. It was obvious that he was the one in charge among the two.
After Gu Nancheng signed the contract, they invited him to dinner. He wasn't used to the Japanese food, and found it rather odd, but he had to pretend to like it. The fishy sashimi was so fishy that Gu Nancheng almost vomited. He didn't know why the Japanese preferred raw fish over cooked. After they finished eating, they left the restaurant.
But what he didn't know was that as soon as he walked out the door, someone took a photo of him and the Japanese. Of course, this person was sent by Fu Yunxi for the purpose of collecting evidence.
Fu Yunxi sent these photos to the headquarters. The commander had been wary of Marshal Gu for a long time. Although Marshal Gu has lost his power now, he still has to be on guard. No one knows whether Gu Nancheng will become the second Marshal Gu in the future.
Now that he had this photo as evidence, it would not be easy for him to attack Gu Nancheng.
So the next day, Commander Li sent his soldiers to the Gu residence, frightening Mother Gu. "How could my son betray his country and collaborate with the enemy? Did you make a mistake? The Marshal will be back soon. Wait until you see him and we'll talk."
Mother Gu wanted the soldiers to buy time for her husband's sake. But she was just a woman, completely unaware of the complexities involved. The soldiers only obeyed Commander Li. Commander Li wanted to capture Young Marshal Gu, and now that Grand Marshal Gu was away from home, it was the perfect opportunity.
Therefore, he didn't listen to what Gu's mother said and directly took Gu Nancheng away.
Gu Nancheng had never been treated like this before. He was thrown into a cell directly. "Do you have any evidence? Why are you locking me up like this? My father is Marshal Gu."
"No matter who your father is, we are just following the commander's orders." The gatekeeper said lightly, and no matter what Gu Nancheng said, he ignored him.
In the Gu Mansion, Marshal Gu was constantly being talked about by Mrs. Gu, but he was not very upset. As the saying goes, when a person leaves, the tea gets cold. He didn't have many people to rely on in the Commander's Mansion, so saving his son was not that easy.
In order to protect his son, Marshal Gu sacrificed his reputation, went into the commander's residence and asked to see Commander Li.
Seeing that the person whom he used to be afraid of was now like a stray dog, Commander Li felt very proud. So what if he looked down on him before? Now his son was in his hands.
"Commander Li, my son usually only knows how to eat, drink and have fun. I don't know where he got into trouble this time. I beg you to show some mercy."
