Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 76 New Missions

As an old man who has been "fishing for sideways" all the year round, Li Goudan's skills are still very good, otherwise he would have been beaten to death long ago, so since he entered the military camp, he quickly adapted to the life inside.

But unfortunately, his lazy appearance has basically not changed.

The soldiers of the death camp were full of fanatical admiration for Gao Ming, so they could say that they tried their best during training, but Li Goudan was different. He was more afraid of Gao Ming than worshiping him, so the training was natural. It's cheating, cheating, and refusing to work hard.

If it was someone else, Hegan Chengji and Zhang Sizheng would have beaten him to the point where he couldn't take care of himself, but for Li Goudan, the two could only persuade him persuasively, but they didn't dare to do anything.

From their point of view, Li Godan was ordered by the crown prince to take them to training after all, and the crown prince also helped him take care of his daughter, which shows that this man has a lot of weight in the crown prince's mind, so they dare not easily offend him.

Therefore, when Gao Ming asked about the situation of Zhang Sizheng and Li Goudan, Zhang Sizheng could neither say yes nor bad, because saying yes would be a lie, and saying no would make him appear incompetent, so he could only be vague.

But fortunately, this time Gao Ming was finally going to summon Li Goudan. At this time, Zhang Sizheng was looking forward to it in his heart, and Li Goudan would not come back after he left!

Zhang Sizheng remembered that Gao Ming's order was for Li Goudan to meet him in the afternoon, so Zhang Sizheng didn't inform him until after lunch.

When Zhang Sizheng saw Li Goudan, this guy was gathering a group of people to brag about it.

"I'll tell you, I was sent to purify by the prince just a little bit at that time. Do you know what is purify? Purify means castration, which means cutting off a man's two balls. If you cut off the balls, you won't be able to be a man in this life, you can only be a eunuch without eggs!"

Speaking of this, Li Goudan, who was still talking freely, suddenly showed a lingering fear expression.

"At that time, it was a risk. It is said that the eunuch in charge of castration was not an ordinary person. He had been castrated eunuchs for three generations. It is to grab the chicken with the left hand and hold the knife in the right hand, and then keep raising and lowering the knife... raising the knife and falling... raising the knife and falling..."

Listening to Li Goudan's narration, the person listening next to him suddenly realized that his balls were a little chilly, and couldn't help pinching his legs.

However, someone also found a loophole in Li Goudan's story, so he immediately stood up.

"Li Goudan, you are talking nonsense, how can there be three generations of ancestors who have been eunuchs, if they become eunuchs, where is his son?"

"Uh……"

When he was asked this way, Li Goudan also realized that there was indeed such a reason, but it would not work to make him admit his mistake, so he came up with an explanation as soon as he turned his mind.

"What do you know, you brat? Let me tell you, that eunuch's great-grandfather became a eunuch after he had a son. He didn't eunuch his son until he had a grandson, and his son didn't eunuch until he had a great-grandson." If he eunuchs his grandson, he eunuchs his son, his son eunuchs his grandson, and his grandson eunuchs his son, and the children and grandchildren are infinitely scarce, so why is it so strange that the three generations of ancestors were all eunuchs?"

"..."

Hearing Li Goudan's words, the people around were stunned. No one refuted for a while, and everyone only felt distressed and chilled.

Damn, these eunuchs are too cruel-hearted, it seems that we have to stay away from them in the future!
Seeing everyone's lingering fears, Li Goudan was immediately filled with a sense of accomplishment.

"It's been a long time since I lied to anyone, and it feels so good to lie to me now!"

At this time, Zhang Sizheng was standing by the side, seeing Li Goudan's satisfied smile, he sighed helplessly, then grabbed Li Goudan directly, and said, "Your Highness wants to see you, come with me." let's go!"

Hearing Zhang Sizheng's words, Li Godan immediately laughed.

"Haha, I can finally leave this boring place, hurry up and don't keep His Highness waiting."

After finishing speaking, he trotted forward, and Zhang Sizheng shook his head repeatedly.

When Li Goudan and Zhang Sizheng came to the East Palace, it was already past noon. At this time, Gao Ming was squinting his eyes to watch the maids dancing. When he saw Li Goudan and the others coming, he immediately waved his hands.

"Okay, you all back down!"

"Yes!"

A dozen court ladies retreated immediately, while Zhang Sizheng and Li Goudan walked in.

After entering, Zhang Sizheng immediately cupped his fists at Gao Ming.

"Subordinates see His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Seeing this scene, Li Goudan bowed deeply to Gao Ming with a flattering face.

"Grassman Li Goudan has seen His Royal Highness, and the Prince's palace is mighty!"

Hearing his words, Gao Ming couldn't help laughing.

"You're the only one who can talk, okay, get up!"

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness!"

Seeing Li Goudan get up grinning, Gao Ming smiled at Zhang Sizheng again.

"Okay, Ah Zheng, get up too, this is not a place to talk, let's talk in the study."

"Subordinates obey!"

Seeing that Zhang Sizheng was still serious, Gao Ming could only smile and shook his head, and then led them towards the study.

After the three entered the study, Gao Ming immediately asked Zhang Sizheng to close the door of the study, and then looked at them seriously.

"This time it's not a trivial matter. I said ugly things first, and then something went wrong, and I can't keep you guys!"

Seeing Gao Ming being so serious, Zhang Sizheng and Li Goudan also nodded seriously.

"Yes, my subordinates know."

"The grass people also know, please rest assured, His Royal Highness!"

Hearing what they said, Gao Ming nodded.

"Okay, then I'll start talking about business. I received news that King Qi Li You is going to rebel, so I want you to take people to Qizhou immediately."

Having said that, Gao Ming immediately looked at Li Goudan.

"Li Goudan, you are quick-witted and eloquent. After you arrive in Qizhou, you must gain the trust of Qi Wang Li You as soon as possible. He cheated out of the mansion, you know?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Goudan hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes, I understand."

Seeing that Li Goudan agreed so reluctantly, Gao Ming frowned immediately, but he didn't say much, but turned to look at Zhang Sizheng.

"As for you, Ah Zheng, your task is more difficult. I want you to lead someone to support Li Goudan. Once he tricks King Qi out of the mansion, you will immediately capture Li You and take him secretly to Chang'an. Come and give it to me, can it be done?"

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, Zhang Sizheng nodded immediately.

"Yes, this subordinate will definitely do it!"

Compared with Li Goudan, Zhang Sizheng agreed so resolutely. Hearing his answer, even Gao Ming couldn't help showing a satisfied smile.

"Okay, what I want is your words. You go out and guard the door first, and Li Goudan and I will have a few words alone."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Zhang Sizheng immediately cupped his fists and saluted Gao Ming.

"Yes, my subordinates retire!"

After Zhang Sizheng went out, Li Goudan looked at Gao Ming with a smile on his face, and suddenly became a little uneasy.
