C614 (1/2)
Gu Danyan had walked between countries who knew how many times.
When she arrived at the city, she could not act as casually as before. In the eyes of the soldiers, she was treated with utmost respect. There was even a bold person who dared to stop her carriage and complain about her wrongdoings.
In the village before they came to Le City, Gu Pingyan had caught a person who was bragging.
With one hand, the ghost pressed the person to the ground. With a dark expression, he said, ”You will be the one urging them. What good will it do for them if they give up their children?”
Gu Danyan was carrying a baby, gently coaxing the newborn child, ”Bring him back to the government. I'll take him to the village to identify him, then I'll see what else this godly stick has done.”
”Take your time.” After saying this, he picked up the Divine Staff and disappeared without a trace.
Gu Danyan returned to the village at a leisurely pace. He asked around and found his parents for the poor child, but the group of villagers still believed that the godly stick was a godly skill. Gu Daiyan hastily explained and gave her identity to the yamen to settle.
”There is actually someone in this world who would abandon their own child.” Phantom tsk tsk tsk.
”There are many people like this.” Gu Liuyan, on the other hand, felt that this was a common occurrence. No matter when or where, he had never given up on his baby.
”Our schedule has been messed up by this godly stick today. I'm afraid we have already left the city gates in a hurry.” The ghost glanced at the sky and suggested, ”I see an inn at the town entrance. I'll stay for the night and leave tomorrow.”
Just as Gu Danyan was about to agree, he heard a voice from behind him: ”If Your Highness doesn't mind, why don't you stay in my small government office for the night?”
”Lord Zhu.” Gu Danyan turned his head and looked at the magistrate, finding him rather interesting.
Lord Zhu had a rather shrewd look on his face. He had been quite indifferent when he had detained the godly stick, and he had long since arranged for someone to explain about the godly stick.
Lord Zhu was short and short. He had a mustache that curled under his nose. He came before Gu Danyan and bowed respectfully, ”Your Highness, do you know that it is not peaceful around here?”
”Please inform me one by one, milord.” Gu Liuyan had a feeling that this had something to do with other things.
”The time is not early, I would like to invite His Highness for a meal, to discuss a few words.” The Lord turned and made a gesture of invitation.
Gu Danyan followed him to the main hall and took a seat.
The dishes in front of her were simple. There was a slightly plump Grand Master sitting by her side. When he saw her, he quickly stood up and respectfully bowed to her.
”There's no need to be so polite. Just say it directly if you have something to say.” Gu Danyan calmly sat down and saw that the dishes on the table were all for herself. In order to catch that godly stick, she had also run away for a long time. Now her stomach was rumbling with hunger.
Master Zhu and Master Zhu looked at each other and quickly sat down. At this time, Master Zhu finally opened his mouth, ”To be honest, since we are so close to the Lai City, we would never let such a godly stick get close to us.”
”So?” Gu Liuyan added a bowl of broth to her bowl and raised her eyebrows.
”However, this godly stick isn't the first. We're definitely not the only ones who have these kinds of things. Lord Zhu was originally the emperor's trusted aide, and now that he's here, he's here to investigate the changes that have occurred in the past two years.” The Grand Master did not dare to eat with him. Gu Danyan became more serious and continued to speak softly, ”The new emperor is a treacherous person. Although this godly stick is from our country, he always leaves behind a lot of silver and a map wherever he goes.”
