Chapter 210: Sun Tzu's Art of War: Thirty-Six Strategies
The second in command is a careless person. How could he possibly pay attention to the guards and maids around him?
Secondly, the arrogant second-in-command would never "look upon" these small characters with new eyes.
"We didn't make much money last month. We didn't even get a two-legged sheep along the way. The second half of the month was rainy, so we haven't had a good meal yet. But the boss said that we are responsible for our own profits and losses. This old rule cannot be changed, so I'd better give you a gift first."
They accepted everything without even looking at it.
Gu Feixue imitated the cry of a night owl. The cry was loud and sharp. When Wen Baxian heard the cry of a night owl, he knew that he was about to get to the point. "The wind has been howling recently, and it looks like the thunderstorms will continue for a long time. Around the 10th of this month, the court will send disaster relief funds. If we work together internally and externally, we will be rich. This groundbreaking deal has been done, and you can rest well."
"Is there such a good thing?"
Normally, these messages are sent by Wen Baxian.
Hearing this, the second in command suddenly became interested, "This wealth will be yours and mine. Then we can split it evenly."
"This news should be brought to your boss as soon as possible so that he can prepare for the rainy day. I can also handle it easily here."
Hearing this, the second in command smiled happily. How could he not be happy?
By the time Wen Baxian sent the second manager back, he was already sweating profusely.
"Oh my God," he retreated, terrified. "Oh my God! I've even started to deceive the fierce bandits of Erlong Mountain. If I leak the secret in the future, they will definitely whip my corpse. Your Highness and Miss Gu, please protect me."
"Don't worry, you still have other things to do. I won't let you die just like that. You still have opportunities to make great achievements in the future. As for the second-in-command, I think this will be the last time you two will see each other.
Then, Gu Feixue asked Wen Baxian to contact the people in Cuiwei Mountain.
Soon a group of people in Cuiwei Mountain got the news.
On this side, she also began intensive preparations.
Yuchi Shuo has reported the flood to the court.
The emperor immediately ordered the allocation of funds, but the capital was still thousands of miles away from the destination, Jiangzhou, and there was a huge team of bodyguards along the way. By the time their money arrived, the people of Jiangzhou would have become miners.
At this critical moment of life and death, Yuchi She mysteriously disappeared.
He neither watched nor participated.
This also gave Gu Feixue an opportunity, and she quickly contacted Gu Tingchuan and Zheng Yannian.
Duke Zheng was also very worried about this matter.
As for his brother Gu Tingchuan, he had not seen the Emperor Gu Feixue for a long time. Gu Feixue never dreamed that they would have an argument today.
"It's so dangerous! Why did you come back? It's fine if you just come back, but your parents will come too. The people in Jiangzhou are all under the Sixth Prince's control. Isn't this just walking into a trap for everyone?"
"But..." Gu Feixue felt very aggrieved.
When she heard that her brother was in danger, she wished she could grow wings and escape.
She was so anxious that she rushed to Jiangzhou and started the rescue immediately, but she had no idea that Gu Tingchuan didn't understand her.
"Brother, you, you have changed."
"I have changed, Xue'er. How could you be so reckless? Fortunately, my family is doing well now. If anything happens to my parents, I will ask for your forgiveness."
Gu Feixue hadn't seen Gu Tingchuan like this for a long time.
She turned around and was about to leave, but was hit and fell down softly.
Gu Tingchuan hurried to support her. He had just provoked her with the intention of making her run away.
It's too dangerous here. Not only are they attacked from all sides, but a flood is also imminent. It's extremely urgent. If they are not careful, the entire Jiangzhou will be destroyed.
Zheng Yannian also arrived at this moment.
He looked at the unconscious Gu Feixue and sighed, "She hates evil, but it's so dangerous now. It's better to have less trouble than more. Arrange for someone reliable to let her migrate with the people."
There was a heavy storm outside, with lightning and thunder.
A bright ray of light was cast on the porcelain in the room, and the halo on the utensils was reflected in the room.
Zheng Yannian's back is tall and majestic, like a mountain.
Gu Tingchuan was in high spirits, his eyes like sharp swords drawn from their sheaths.
"Let's arrange it."
Zheng Yannian looked at Gu Feixue.
"I'm just afraid she'll come back."
"Don't worry about it." Gu Tingchuan handed the unconscious Gu Feixue to his confidant, who took her away.
Zheng Yannian and Gu Tingchuan were at a loss.
Yuchi Shuo waited outside for a long time, but Gu Feixue didn't come out. He became anxious and quickly entered the government office. Most of the soldiers here had gone to the riverside.
Everyone is checking for omissions and filling in the gaps, but the progress is incredibly slow.
"Where's Xue'er?"
Yuchi Shuo, who walked in from outside, didn't see Gu Feixue at all.
Zheng Yannian was reluctant to lie, but Gu Tingchuan didn't care. He just wanted his sister to be safe.
"I received a letter from home. My father and mother are on their way and will arrive in Jiangzhou soon. The situation here is extremely urgent, so I am leaving without saying goodbye."
"She went to meet your parents?" Although the other party spoke frankly, Yuchi Shuo still had doubts.
During this period of cooperation, she and he became very close.
Gu Feixue is a very empathetic person. In other words, if the previous plan fails or there are other variables on Gu Feixue's side, she will definitely come to him to explain as soon as possible.
This inexplicable departure without saying goodbye is puzzling.
But... as Gu Feixue's brother, Gu Tingchuan and I are sworn brothers, how could he possibly deceive me.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness." Gu Tingchuan stepped forward and saluted.
The situation is now urgent, and Gu Tingchuan is ready to sacrifice his life.
But he must protect his little sister.
"By the way, I have something to talk to you about."
On this side, Yuchi Shuo still proceeded according to the original plan.
Gu Feixue had just revealed some of the plan, but before she could finish her words, the brother and sister started arguing.
Yuchi Shuo told his plan.
Zheng Yannian, who was always mature and prudent, frowned. "So this is our first plan, using someone else as a substitute? I'm afraid they won't believe it."
"Wen Baxian has met the people from Erlong Mountain and Cuiwei Mountain. Don't worry, they believe what he says."
"That's good, that's good." Here, the two have begun to make arrangements.
After talking about all this, Yuchi Shuo returned the same way.
When they came here, there were two of them, full of laughter and talking about national economy, people's livelihood and family matters. Now that he is back alone, he feels a little lonely.
In the imperial capital, Yuchi Shuo had never seen such a rainy day.
The rain shows no sign of stopping.
The continuous rainy weather has caused the prices here to soar, and many businesses have closed down.
There are those monks and Taoist priests who pretend to be gods, as well as believers of various religions who pray in rounds, hoping that God will change all this.
