"Of course I haven't forgotten this. I originally planned to go find Miss Ye in the past two days, but I didn't expect Miss Ye to come to the door by herself."
Gu Chen explained with a smile, which made Ye Mi's original dissatisfaction melt away a lot.
"In that case, then come with me now." She immediately took over the words, not giving Gu Chen a chance to go back on his words.
"So urgent?" Gu Chen looked surprised.
"What, you won't? I've been waiting for many days, don't tell me you still need time to prepare." Ye Mi glared.
"That's not true. It's just that I can't leave Peidu for too long now. I wonder where we are going to meet the Pavilion Master and how long will it take to get back and forth?"
Gu Chen was not reluctant. In fact, he had long wanted to meet the master of Wuwang Pavilion, but now that he was cooperating with Wu Lie, if he was away for too long, the original plan would inevitably go wrong.
"So that's what you're worried about. Don't worry, the Pavilion Master is in Zeguo right now. Our coming and going will take up to ten days if we hurry up, and we won't be able to delay anything. Besides, there is nothing more important than meeting the Pavilion Master. We need to
I know this is related to your future in the cabinet." Ye Mi said.
"Ten days?" Gu Chen estimated that if it's only ten days, it shouldn't be a problem, so he nodded. "Okay, I'll see you outside the city tomorrow morning."
"Can't we leave now?" Ye Mi was worried that Gu Chen was procrastinating again.
"Before I leave, I have to explain something. What will the people in the palace think about my sudden disappearance?" Gu Chen frowned slightly, feeling that Ye Mi was too anxious.
What Gu Chen said made sense, and Ye Mi also knew his current status in Peidu, so he stopped forcing him.
"Okay, I'll meet you outside the city tomorrow morning. I'll wait for you."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and left the house, quickly disappearing into the night.
As soon as she left, the Infinite Tyrannosaurus Rex arrived, and Gu Chenzheng was seen with a thoughtful look on his face.
Ye Mi sneaked into Luoshui Palace and Wuji Tyrannosaurus had already noticed it in advance. However, he knew that Gu Chen had thoughts about Wuwang Pavilion, so he did not stop him or show up.
"Zeguo..."
Gu Chen thought for a while, came to his senses, and called the maid outside the palace who was responsible for serving him. "Go and ask Mr. Tang to come over to my place."
"Now?" The palace maid was stunned. It was already night.
"Immediately." Gu Chen affirmed. The palace maid did not hesitate and hurried to Tang Mansion.
In less than half an hour, Tang Xuance arrived. He was wearing casual clothes. Apparently he arrived in a hurry because he didn't know whether Gu Chen's summons was urgent.
"I wonder what Mr. Chen's orders are?" Tang Xuance asked politely after he arrived.
"It's nothing important. I just want to ask you about Zeguo." Gu Chen got straight to the point.
"Zeguo?" Tang Xuance was stunned for a moment, then cursed in his heart.
He thought there was something urgent. If he wanted to ask questions, couldn't he ask them tomorrow?
When he was called here in the middle of the night, he thought something had happened.
Although he had an opinion in his heart, Tang Xuance responded respectfully on the surface: "I wonder what kind of affairs in Zeguo Mr. Chen is asking about?"
"Previously, the Lan State invaded the border of the Pei State on a large scale. When the situation in the Pei State was in danger, they asked the Ze State for help, but were rejected. I wonder if this is the case?" Gu Chen said.
"It's true."
Tang Xuance's face darkened when he mentioned this matter. Pei State and Ze State had already concluded an alliance many years ago and agreed to fight against the Lan State together.
The relationship between the allies has been good over the years, but when the Lan Kingdom invaded last time, the Pei Kingdom asked for help from the Ze Kingdom several times, but the Ze Kingdom ignored them all.
If the Ze Kingdom is willing to send troops, even if it is just to prepare for an attack at the border, then the Lan Kingdom may surrender its troops and retreat early, and how can it encounter the crisis of national subjugation?
This incident made everyone in Pei's court very dissatisfied, and now the alliance between the two countries has become in vain.
"Do you know why Zeguo refuses to help?" Gu Chen said thoughtfully.
"The specific situation is unknown. The Zeguo side explained that the ancient swamp has been unstable recently and they need to take precautions, so it is difficult to allocate troops."
"Isn't the ancient swamp peaceful?" Gu Chen frowned. He had looked up the map of Dasheng's Seven Kingdoms and knew that Zeguo bordered Pei and Lan on one side, and on the other side was the boundless ancient swamp.
It is an extremely huge primitive swamp area, not under the control of any country, inaccessible and notoriously dangerous.
"That's what I said, but the ethnic groups in the ancient swamp often harass the border of Zeguo. It's not a matter of a day or two. Zeguo has long been used to it and has a defense mechanism. In my opinion, that is just an excuse. Zeguo refuses to send troops.
Mainly because Luomen disappeared, I think our country, Pei, is doomed."
Tang Xuance sighed heavily. When countries get along with each other, interests are the most important thing. In fact, there is nothing to criticize for Zeguo's actions.
If the man in front of him hadn't taken action to stabilize the situation, even he at that time couldn't see how Pei Guo could have escaped.
From Tang Xuance's mouth, Gu Chen learned a lot about Zeguo's situation and already knew it in his mind.
"Okay, it's getting late. Master Tang can go back. By the way, I will leave Peidu tomorrow. It may take half a month or a month to come back. Please let Master Tang inform King Pei about this."
"Mr. Chen is leaving Peidu? Could it be that he is going to Zeguo?" Tang Xuance was greatly surprised, thinking that Gu Chen was suddenly interested in Zeguo and asked so many questions, so he made some guesses.
Gu Chen smiled and did not explain, "Peidu will have trouble with Mr. Tang."
"I don't dare. I hope Mr. Chen will leave early and come back early." Tang Xuance wanted to ask more questions, but seeing that Gu Chen refused to say more, he had no choice but to give up.
After Tang Xuance left, Wuji Tyrannosaurus looked at the whole thing passing by and asked curiously: "Then the master of Wuwang Pavilion is in Zeguo?"
It could more or less guess what Ye Mi's purpose was, and Gu Chen suddenly asked about Ze Guo, so there must be some connection.
"That's right. Since we are going to make this trip, it would be a good idea to stop by the Wild Fox Clan to see something." Gu Chen touched his nose.
The Yehu tribe is the largest ethnic group in Zeguo, and the Zewang royal family also comes from this tribe.
There are thousands of races in the Hongmeng Dao Realm. The human race is neither the largest nor the most powerful ethnic group. Most of the dynasties and kingdoms are ruled by foreign races.
Regimes ruled by human kings like Pei State are rare.
"When will we set off?" The Infinite Tyrannosaurus didn't ask much. Anyway, it would go wherever Gu Chen went. It was the most loyal guard.
"Let's go now." After talking with Tang Xuance for a long time, it was almost dawn.
So without attracting attention, Gu Chen and Wuji Tyrannosaurus left Peidu and met Ye Mi outside the city.
Seeing that Gu Chen came back very quickly and didn't delay any more, Ye Mi was very satisfied.
The two of them set off and kept going all the way. In just four days, they entered the territory of Ze Country.
As he neared his destination, Ye Mi breathed a sigh of relief and finally stopped rushing.
Seeing how anxious she was all the way, Gu Chen realized that the next step was not just to meet the master of Wuwang Pavilion.
