Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 568 Timeliness of News

Mei Sanniang hesitated for a moment and then asked, "My master's matter should not be within the scope of the transaction, right?"

"But I'm still asking about Lord Xinling." Gu Xun naturally disagreed with Mei Sanniang's opinion, "And you can't answer anything useful. It's very difficult for me to handle this deal!"

"That's because you asked a question!" Mei Sanniang muttered dissatisfiedly, but still did not refute Gu Xun's request.

"He rarely tells us about the master's affairs, and we won't go out of our way to inquire..."

"I don't need specific information, I just need some general information, such as going to some places that I usually don't go to, or disappearing for a period of time inexplicably. Is there any?" Gu Xun tried to help Mei Sanniang add some The details of memories.

"In that case..." Mei Sanniang actually had some thoughts after this reminder, "My master seems to have been to Qi State before, and it was not under the king's order."

"Is it unusual for him to go to Qi State?" Gu Xun first asked to confirm the situation.

"Of course." Mei Sanniang glanced at Gu Xun, "My master was the former general of the Wei State. Although countries do not explicitly prohibit private visits by important ministers of other countries, as my master is a military attache, this matter is also very sensitive. Wouldn't he People who do this kind of thing.”

"Oh, in this case, he was not ordered by the king, but he was probably sent by Wei Wuji."

Mei Sanniang nodded slightly silently, "Also, the master probably went to Xinling first that time."

"In this case, it may be even bigger..." Gu Xun showed a satisfied smile, "Are many people aware of this matter?"

"Not many. There should only be a few senior brothers who know a little bit about it."

"Very good. Now we have narrowed the scope to Qi State. The problem is still the same as before. Is there anything you can say?" Gu Xun asked again.

"..." Mei Sanniang was silent for a moment, and then replied, "Qi Guo's words... none."

"No!?"

"No." Mei Sanniang shook her head, "Of course Mr. Xinling has contact with the Qi royal family, but the friendship is generally not deep."

"Senior brother once told me that Lord Xinling used to unite five countries to fight against Qin, but only Qi... that's why he did this."

"That's it..." Gu Xun twisted his neck, looked at the sky, and fell into deep thought.

If what Mei Sanniang said is true, then Zhu Hai's trip to Qi was either the result of Lord Xinling's conspiracy to spread suspicion, or it was indeed related to some people in Qi but was covered up.

If it's the latter, who is it? He must be a member of the Qi clan, but the Tian clan... has quite a few members!
  Mei Sanniang angrily interrupted Gu Xun, who was contemplating, "Okay, do you have anything else to ask?"

"Ah!" Gu Xun, who was interrupted, lowered his head and looked at Mei Sanniang, "Then... let's do it. It seems that even if you know something useful, it's hard to realize it."

"Then it's your turn to fulfill your promise, the whereabouts of Xuan Jian!" Mei Sanniang's face finally showed joy after hearing this, and she asked impatiently.

"Oh, Xuanjian is in Xinzheng, the capital of South Korea. It's not that big there. You can go find it yourself." Gu Xun casually dismissed him happily after hearing this.

"Great!" Mei Sanniang muttered with joy at first, and then said to Gu Xun, "I hope the Imperial Master will not lie to others."

"Don't worry, I think you can just deny it if you default on the debt. There's no need to lie. You can leave as soon as possible." Gu Xun didn't bother to talk to Mei Sanniang anymore, and started to chase people away just as eagerly.

"Humph!" Mei Sanniang snorted in displeasure again, but without saying anything else, she turned over from the window and left.

Gu Xun stopped staying in this room and got up directly to go back to the next door.

"It took me so long to finish, is there a lot to do?" Yan Lingji asked lazily, lying on her side on the bed, wearing a pair of underwear that transcended her time.

"There are indeed a lot of things, but what's even more surprising is that there are more people." Gu Xun replied after sitting down, "Mei Sanniang just came here in the dark." "Oh, no wonder I feel some strange movement." Yan Lingji's beautiful eyes Blinking, he showed a malicious smile, "I didn't expect that woman not only dressed boldly, but also behaved directly. She actually came to have a tryst with you, the shopkeeper, in the middle of the night."

Gu Xun glanced down at her, not to mention what you are wearing now, even during the day...you don't wear more clothes than others!

However, Mei Sanniang's style of dressing is indeed rare, and she is actually an European style with half of her lower body exposed...

No, that’s not the point!
  Gu Xun quickly put his thoughts back on track and recounted the transaction just now.

After hearing this, Yan Lingji squinted her eyes and rolled her eyes at Gu Xun, "You sold Xuan Jian just because of this specious information?"

"First of all, these contents are of some value." Gu Xun stretched out a finger, and then inserted a second finger, "Secondly, I did not sell Xuanjian."

"So...you lied again?" Yan Lingji asked again.

Gu Xun shook his head, "If you say you won't lie to people, then you won't lie."

"But the information in exchange is naturally not as good as the money to buy it. Whether they have time to use the information I gave is a problem." Gu Xun showed his usual wicked smile and handed the letter he had collected before to Yan Lingji.

Yan Lingji took the things, sat up and browsed them quickly.

This is information that Luo Wang will send to Gu Xun regularly. The reason why Yan Lingji didn't notice Mei Sanniang's appearance before was because Gu Xun wanted to see Luo Wang's people.

There is not much content above, just two important ones.

First, the State of Qin officially launched troops against the State of Zhao. The famous general Wang Jian led an army to Yanyu and Lioyang, while generals Huanjie and Yang Duanhe led an army to Yecheng and Anyang.

Zhao Wangqian dispatched veteran general Hu Zhui and led an army of 100,000 to meet the enemy.

However, it was not the Qin State that launched the offensive against the Zhao State first, but the Yan State. The Qin State took advantage of a good situation and took advantage of the situation.

This is an old tradition of Yan State. No matter what happens, attack Zhao State first.

It is also tradition to not win.

Although this matter is big, it is not considered a secret. After all, there have been signs for a long time. It can only be said that everyone expected it.

The second one is related to South Korea.

The Qin State has passed a resolution to completely expose Zheng Guo as a spy for South Korea, and hold South Korea accountable on the grounds of weakening Qin's plan.

The envoys are already on their way.

However, the Six Kingdoms of Shandong Province are not aware of this matter yet, and it is estimated that they will not get the news until a few days later.

"Huhu! Looks like South Korea is going to be in trouble!" Yan Lingji looked very happy after seeing the second message.

She likes to see Korea or Chu in bad luck, the worse, the better.

But while she was happy, she also wondered, "Does this have anything to do with your selling Xuanjian?"

Gu Xun smiled, casually pointed out the intelligence documents, and then explained:
  "Of course it is related. The news Mei Sanniang got is that Xuan Jian is now in Xinzheng, but by the time they find him, he will probably have left Xinzheng."
