C457 (1/2)
Up until the moment he left, even Lai Xuan was unable to determine the identity of this person.
Everything the man said seemed to be for the sake of Aldan, but the real thing he did was a little probing, and his demeanor was very noble, but the words he said made it difficult for people to decide whether to laugh or cry, and it was even harder to tell his character.
Outside the door, a soldier told him that Pingchuan had already brought a few assassins into the car.
”General, is that person really the prince of Lildan?” The deputy general could not help but walk forward.
”Who knows, we might even send someone to follow that man in white. Let's see what sort of status the people who collaborated with him have, and whether or not they're actually lil Dan's men.” Lai Xuan felt that this matter was of great importance, but on the other side, he had no choice but to sigh. ”I will first return to the military camp and talk to General Ai Yan about this matter.”
In the tavern, Gu Pingyan put down the cup in his hand. His heart was pounding as he said: ”Do you really believe me when you say it?”
”Probably half believing and half doubting.” He then glanced outside the door, ”Just now, I have already sent out a message to the people of the Wind Pavilion. They are going to attack tomorrow. Tonight …”
Gu Danyan thought for a while and rubbed his forehead with a headache, ”I thought about it all night and felt that it would be better if we went together. Let's go to the Erdan.”
After a long period of silence, Phantom Demon looked at her with disappointment. ”If Emperor Erdan really finds out …”
If we keep a low profile, then I'll be able to prove my identity. We'll be able to settle down in the border town of Er Dan, find a good substitute, and then secretly return to the border. After we take down the two cities, the war between the two sides will be in a deadlock for a period of time. Gu Danyan said and winked mischievously, ”So you have to hire two big carriages.”
”That jade bead …”
”I'll go to the tower and cause a ruckus. When we attack tomorrow morning, just take me out of the prison.” Gu Danyan spoke with calmness.
In the future, she would personally take care of the matters regarding the defensive map, so it couldn't be considered as Jade Pearl. Even if she really did take the Jade Pearl and flew far away, as long as the other party found out that she was only bringing people back to Er Dan, she naturally would not pursue the matter.
The old procuress was shocked, but the strangest thing was that, with a single glance, Gu Danyan saw the jade bead that was gently resting on the second floor's railing. With tears in everyone's eyes, she called out in a tender voice, ”Zhu'er! So you really are here. ”
Yu Zhu was shocked by Gu Pingyan's arrival, but she was also scared by Gu Qing'er's voice.
”Aiya! ”This guest, please don't cause any more trouble. This building is only used to entertain …”
Gu Danyan threw two pieces of silver onto the bawd's face: ”Don't talk nonsense with me. Leave the silver here, I must take the pearl. If it wasn't for Jiang Yan here, I would have let your head fall to the ground. You actually dare to buy my woman!”
Quickly, the old procuress wondered what kind of personage this was.
However, Gu Danyan quickly went upstairs and took the bead into her arms. He whispered into her ear, ”Now I'm your lover, be careful.”
Yu Zhu's worried heart was finally relieved. She leaned on Gu Danyan's shoulder and gently closed her eyes: ”She is too scared, I can't stop her at all.”
”It's not your fault.” Gu Danyan gently raised his hand to support her behind the ear. The two of them looked like lovers that hadn't seen each other in a long time.
