Chapter 77
The air seemed to stand still.

Gu Linqiao looked at him blankly, with some surprise in his eyes.

She thought that a powerful prince like him who grew up in a feudal dynasty would not be able to say the word 'sorry'.

Seeing that she was silent, Feng Yunsu said with a serious face, "I don't mean to force you to accept my apology. If you don't want to hear it, I won't mention it again in the future. Heal my leg and you can leave at any time." ."

Hearing this, Gu Linqiao raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why don't I accept it? Not only do I accept it, I also have to put forward a condition, that is, I don't know if the prince is sincere."

Feng Yunsu asked, "What are the conditions?"

Seeing that he agreed, Gu Linqiao smiled, and then took out the token given to her by the emperor, "Why don't the prince, like the emperor, give me a token? If I need it, I can take the token to you when the time comes. The prince begs for it.”

Seeing that she was serious, Feng Yunsu took off the jade ring from his finger and gave it to her, "Seeing a ring is like seeing a person. If you want to do something, just do it, provided that..."

Gu Linqiao understood what he meant and interrupted him directly, "I will not do anything that harms the rights of the prince. Don't worry, prince."

Feng Yun solemnly laughed, "That's not what I meant. I just want to tell you to be careful when doing things. Father has already set his sights on you."

His father had always been very good at understanding people and making good use of them.

Gu Linqiao nodded and said, "I understand."

Feng Yunsu paused for a moment and then said, "I am not ungrateful for what you said that day. On the contrary, I have already thought about it clearly."

Hearing what he said, Gu Linqiao's eyes showed confusion.

Feng Yunsu said truthfully, "The Emperor and I are both father and son, as well as monarch and minister. As long as he doesn't kill me, I can't rebel. Otherwise, I will be a traitor and a rebellious son. Not only will I be infamy for thousands of years, but even the subordinates who follow me will be nailed." On the pillar of shame.”

Gu Linqiao said clearly, "You can gamble with your life, but you can't gamble with their descendants, right?"

Feng Yunsu nodded.

Gu Linqiao couldn't help but ask, "Is it worth it?"

When you die, there is nothing left. Except for ashes, there is really nothing left.

Feng Yunsu smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter whether it's worth it or not, but it's the only way to go at the moment."

which way?

It is nothing more than soldiers coming to block it, and water coming to earth to cover it.

Gu Linqiao curled his lips and said, "If the prince believes in me, you might as well leave some things to me!"

Feng Yunsu was puzzled, "What's wrong with me?"

Gu Linqiao said, "I said before that when money and food are in power, medicinal materials are the most important. I have ordered people to purchase medicinal materials in Kyoto City. I believe that with the secret help of the prince, the medicine dealers in Kyoto City will soon be It will be in their name. Now that the medicine is available, we have to rely on the prince for money and food."

"The Emperor uses you as a knife to massacre people he cannot handle in Kyoto. If one day he needs you to go on an expedition and wants you to die on the border, as long as he has no money and food and is looking for a scapegoat, it will be done. .”

Feng Yun said solemnly, "Baifeng is in Qianzhou, and this is what he is doing."

Gu Linqiao snorted, "With all due respect, that subordinate of yours is not reliable, and don't put all your eggs in the same basket. It's easy for things to go wrong. Your Majesty should learn more about the cunning rabbit's three burrows."

She suddenly looked at Feng Yunsu and asked, "Is the prince rich?"

Feng Yun looked at her solemnly, "How much do you want?"

"Give as much as you have, and I will turn all the money into food."

Gu Linqiao spoke loudly, but instead of being angry, Feng Yunsu said, "10 taels of silver in cash."

It's not a silver note, it's silver that can be used immediately.

When he heard this number, Gu Linqiao not only did not light up his eyes, but had a puzzled expression on his face, "The reason why my people were exposed is because they used banknotes, right?"

Feng Yunsu nodded when he saw that she reacted so quickly. "The bank's large-denomination banknotes will all have special marks. Which year and month was issued, and who came to blend them, all have provenance."

No wonder those corrupt officials accepted bribes in cash and gold, but they didn't dare to use them even after receiving the banknotes.

Feng Yunsu added another sentence, "Cash the cash in the warehouse. You can pick it up anytime you want."

Gu Linqiao nodded, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will handle this matter properly."

After finishing speaking, Gu Linqiao added, "Your Majesty, there is one more thing."

Feng Yunsu asked, "What's the matter?"

Gu Linqiao said bluntly, "I have finished the things that Miss Ziye handed over before, but this line is no longer usable."

Feng Yunsu pondered for a moment, "You can do whatever you want. If it affects you in doing other things, you don't have to take this line."

This was what Gu Linqiao was waiting for, and he immediately agreed.

She had thought Ziye was so capable before, but after she took over completely, she realized that this girl was not very capable and had a bad temper. She really thought she had done something great, but it turned out that someone had already been counter-infiltrated, and the news she passed on It’s also a half-truth.

Although this line cannot be used, it certainly cannot be dispensed with. After all, it must be kept to confuse the enemy.

Feng Yunsu looked at the sky and suddenly asked, "Do you want to have dinner together?"

Gu Linqiao looked confused.

What to eat now?

Feng Yunsu looked at her and said, "I've been busy for a long time and haven't eaten lunch. Aren't you hungry?"

It was okay if he didn't say it, but when he did, her stomach really rumbled.

Originally she was very hungry when she came back from the palace, but she bumped into Yu Wenmo as soon as she came back, and she was so angry that she forgot to have lunch.

"Do you have food to eat now?"

She knew that there were rules in the palace: eat when it was time to eat, and after the meal time, there was nothing but some small snacks that were just enough to fit between the teeth.

Feng Yun said solemnly, "I have hired a new cook. From now on, just ask him to cook whatever you want to eat."

Gu Linqiao's eyes lit up, "If so, thank you so much, Your Majesty."

Feng Yunsu said, "There is no need to thank you in a hurry. If you come up with any new things from now on, just don't forget me."

Gu Linqiao nodded, "That's natural!"

Feng Yunsu gave the order, and the servants immediately served the dishes. It turned out that they had been prepared long ago.

Feng Yunsu actually came to see Gu Linqiao for dinner just now, but he bumped into Yu Wenmo and was delayed until now.

Gu Linqiao was not stupid and naturally understood his intention.

She thought about it carefully and realized that Feng Yunsu had had dinner with her before, and this seemed to be his tactful way of apologizing.

Gu Linqiao said while eating the food, "Your Majesty, we are now close allies, right?"

Hearing this, Feng Yunsu was slightly startled.

Gu Linqiao looked at him and said word by word, "I have made plans to advance and retreat together with the prince, and live and die together. Will the prince still question my sincerity in the future?"

Advancing and retreating together, living and dying together, is this a heart-to-heart relationship?
