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.
Jade Beads had already known about this since long ago, but she did not expect that one day, when they were working for Navy Tide, they would helplessly watch as the girl lost her life. However, she was not the least bit suspicious; after being doted on for a while, she was thrown back into the building.
However, after a while, two high-ranking officers hurriedly rushed in with their pants up. "You still dare to barge in, brat! I wonder if we're the only ones who can use this place!"
As he spoke, another person spat and pulled out the long sword at his waist.
The girls cried out in fear while Gu Daiyan put the jade bead behind her and coldly said, "Even if the general comes, he should still give me face. Who do you think you are?"
"What big words …"
That person was about to rush over, but before he could make a move, someone beside him had already grabbed him. The two of them looked down together and stood up straight.
At the entrance, Lai Xuan led her men in.
Never in his wildest dreams did he expect that the person he had sent to keep an eye on Gu Danyan would end up in this building.
Two streams of clear tears fell from the jade pearl. It curled up resentfully behind Gu Daiyan's back and only said softly, "It was the mother who bought me here. I was just going to buy some rouge …"
"See if I don't skin this old woman's skin." Gu Danyan's eyes turned cold. The knife at her waist fell at the feet of the old procuress, causing her to fall to the ground in fright. She shouted, "These girls are all bought from small countries. I have paid for them!"
"Zhu'er was just accompanying me out to do business. I missed it for a while and was caught by your wife. I don't know how much she bullied me, but it's light for me to skin you alive." As Gu Liuyan spoke, she held the jade pearl in one hand and pushed the high-ranking officer away as she walked down quickly.
Lai Xuan was only observing everything. She waited until Gu Danyan was really about to make a move before she stopped her, "This is Jiang Yan's territory."
"But this woman kidnapped my Pearl." Gu Danyan shook off Lai Xuan's hand and glared at him: "Still, I will leave the pearl in this building, General Lai Xuan will protect her and take care of her!"
Lai Xuan's eyebrows shot up. She felt that this person was truly domineering, even her words carried an order.
Everyone was astonished. This person actually dared to speak to General Lai Xuan in such a manner!
Before Lai Xuan could say anything, Gu Danyan had already left with the jade bead in large strides. After a while, she came back, picked up the knife on the ground, and lightly patted the bawd's face: "Don't let me see you again."
As she finished speaking, she flipped the knife over in her hand and steadily put it back into the sheath on her waist.
Before she left, she brushed shoulders with Lai Xuan. When their gazes met, Gu Daiyan's aura was not any weaker than Lai Xuan's.
Once you were led by the nose, it was even easier to believe.
Lai Xuan still let them go and sent more people to follow them, while Gu Liuyan and Yu Zhu felt their hearts beating like a drum. When they returned to the inn, both of them felt weak in their legs. They brought out clean clothes and food for the two and said in a low voice: "There are more guards, and Pingchuan has already left with the slaves."
"These slaves must be delivered into the third prince's hands." Gu Danyan shakily poured himself a glass of water and said, "I thought Lai Xuan wouldn't believe me, but I didn't expect him to really believe 70% of it."
