Prince De served the tea himself, so Chi Zhongtian naturally couldn't help it, so he quickly took it respectfully and drank it all in one gulp.

"After drinking this cup of tea, General Chi, you will have to help the court with its affairs."

In this kind of conversation, King De never involves himself in it, but always mentions the word "court". Whether it is true or false, it always makes people feel more comfortable listening, and they feel that this person,

Still dedicated to the country.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, this is a matter of duty!" Chi Zhongtian said again after putting down the tea cup.

"Well, we will set off early tomorrow morning. Where exactly is the Golden Bamboo Mountain you mentioned?" King De asked.

"It's in Lingshui Township near Shezhou City, which belongs to the Western Jiangxi Province, but it's not far away." Chi Zhongtian replied.

"The thieves above are all very powerful in martial arts?" King De asked next.

"Yes, I can't say it is particularly powerful, but compared to us soldiers, it is very powerful." Chi Zhongtian replied.

"Well, if you take action, how long do you estimate it will take to wipe them out?"

At this point, Chi Zhongtian was about to answer, but as soon as his mind turned around, he suddenly had another thought.

"Your Highness, I think we should keep it secret. First, arrest a few thieves up there to identify the portrait. In this case, Your Highness, you will have an idea, and I will be able to get out of the way."

Chi Zhongtian changed the topic and said.

King De nodded, and then said with a smile: "General Chi is really thoughtful, and I think this is a good idea. When we do things, we don't care who trusts whom. This is a major matter for the court, so there is no harm in being cautious."

"That's natural."

"Okay, General Chi, please go back and rest first. We will set off early tomorrow morning. As I said, your people will leave first, and you will follow me."

Chi Zhongtian nodded and said smoothly: "Your Highness, please rest assured that there will be no mistakes."

"In a while, you go to Master Ge Hui to pay some silver coins as a way to pay for your expenses on the way." King De continued.

"That's not necessary. Your Highness doesn't have to worry about this." Chi Zhongtian wasn't sure whether King De was sincere or deliberately testing him, so he didn't dare to answer rashly.

"The imperial court has always treated its own people very generously."

There seems to be something in this sentence. The implication is that since you are a member of the imperial court, I will treat you well. If you go against the imperial court, you will not be as good as you.

Chi Zhongtian understood the meaning of King De's words and replied in a low voice, knowingly: "In that case, thank you very much, Your Highness."

"You're welcome, you can go ahead, I have some more plans."

"Your Highness, I am resigning."

After saying that, Chi Zhongtian left immediately.

...

After returning to the Guan family, Chi Zhongtian called Wu Yang and Aoshuangxue over, and then selected hundreds of capable Guan family disciples to hand over the thousand taels of silver withdrawn from Ge Hui to Aoshuang

Xue, let them take the people to Shezhou City first, and then go from Wuyang to Mingye Villa to take charge, replace Ye Luo, and by the way, bring out ten Mingye people.

After Ao Shuangxue and Wu Yang heard this, they simply packed up and left immediately. Naturally, such a big movement could not be hidden from the Guan family. Among them, Tong Fei and Zhang San also clamored to follow, but they were all stopped.

Chi Zhongtian declined. Although he had King De's guarantee, the Guan family could not leave alone. It was obviously not enough to only allow Guan Ziyu to stay.

After they set off first, Chi Zhongtian secretly called Qiu Chan and asked her to take Shao Jin and set off with him tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Chi Zhongtian took Qiu Chan and Shao Jin to the government office. King De was already ready to go. After a few brief words, the two headed towards Jinzhu Mountain.

In the evening after Chi Zhongtian left, Gu Aoyun in Binlin Villa received another reply from his disciple.

This was a secret letter sent back by carrier pigeon. After receiving it, Gu Aoyun went to the study alone.

"Chi Zhongtian has left with the people from the imperial court, and a large number of people from the imperial court have appeared near Guan's house."

In just one sentence, Gu Aoyun was left wondering.

What does this phenomenon mean?

Chi Zhongtian left together with the people from the court. This seems to mean that Chi Zhongtian's relationship with the court was not normal.

And a large number of people from the imperial court appeared near the Guan family. What does this mean?

Does it mean that Chi Zhongtian has been controlled by the imperial court, or that Chi Zhongtian's people have been protected by the imperial court?

Gu Aoyun couldn't figure it out.

No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out.

"Master, the leader of the Fuyu Holy Cult came just now. I said you were not here and sent him away." At this moment, a disciple came in and said this.

Gu Aoyun nodded and said: "Well, you did a good job. Remember, during this period, I will not see any outsiders. In addition, please pass on the order. No matter where you are, the disciples of Binlin Villa will be honest to me during this period."

One thing, you must not cause trouble, remember!"

In my impression, Gu Aoyun has always been fearless. He has always only caused trouble and has never been afraid of trouble. So now that Gu Aoyun said this, the disciple is not used to it.

"Don't worry, Lord, your subordinates will remember it."

Gu Aoyun is also wise to protect himself now. He knows that the current situation is complicated and confusing, and people from the imperial court are actually involved. This is incredible. Gu Aoyun is not afraid of anything, except for one thing, that is, he does not dare to go against the people of the imperial court.

Zhao Weixian's matter had never been resolved before, and he was really scared.

However, there is a saying that goes well, the more you think about something, the less it will come to you; the more you think about something, the less it will come to you.

These words could not be more appropriate to use tonight.

Just when Gu Aoyun was about to go back to his room to sleep, a disciple walked in again.

"Master, I have something to report."

"What's up?"

"Master, someone wants to see you."

When Gu Aoyun heard this, he immediately said angrily: "Didn't I tell you earlier? No one will be seen!"

The disciple was startled by the voice, but continued: "The disciple has indeed said that you are not here, but this person said that he is your old friend, and he said that his surname is Zhao. He said that after you hear this, he will meet

his."

"The surname is Zhao?" Gu Aoyun was stunned for a moment.

Since the other party is so confident that Gu Aoyun will meet him, there must be something special about it.

"What does it look like?"

"It's hard to see clearly. It seems like he doesn't want others to see him."
