After rebirth, I became the stupid son of the Hou family

Chapter 84: Working together to find the general

When Miss Xianyun saw the Madam leaving, he took Jiang Chen to her room.Then he turned around and said to Jiang Chen:

"Is the young master sent by the prince?"

Jiang Chen held a folding fan in his hand, nodded to her and said:

"Yes, it was the prince who said that as long as I show this fan pendant, it will be like his presence in person. He asked me to come to you if I have anything to do."

After Jiang Chen finished speaking, Xianyun knelt down and saluted him.Jiang Chen quickly helped up Miss Xianyun who was on the ground;

"Miss Xianyun, there is no need to be polite. I am here to ask you to do something this time, so I still have to trouble the girl with something."

Miss Xianyun said:

"Xianyun has been in Xiliang for three years. He has been the eyes and ears of His Highness the Crown Prince. If you need my help, sir, just tell me and Xianyun can do it."

Jiang Chen said to her straight to the point:

"Does the girl know the news about General Li Chenglong? The court said that he surrendered to Xiliang, but according to the news I got when I came to Xiliang, there is no such thing at all. I wonder if the girl knows something."

Xianyun glanced at him and said;

"How could the general surrender to the Xiliang people? This is simply a big joke. Now that the treacherous ministers of the Xuanwu Dynasty are in the way, the emperor is allowed to make such a ridiculous decision and spread such a ridiculous joke. Although I don't know the general But I know that there are spies of the general in Xiliang City. In the past, when there was urgent news that could not be delivered, I used them to help spread the news. Regarding the general, they should I know."

When Jiang Chen heard this, he immediately became energetic and he couldn't wait to say to her:

"Can Miss Xianyun help us contact them? I am here this time to find the whereabouts of the general. If Miss Xianyun can help me with this, I will be very grateful."

Miss Xianyun said to Jiang Chen:

"Since His Highness the Crown Prince asked you to come to me, why shouldn't I help you? Just wait for me, I'll go inside and change my clothes, and I'll go out with you right away."

Jiang Chen quickly thanked Miss Xianyun, and after a while, he saw a handsome young man walking out.This frightened Jiang Chen for a moment. When he took a closer look, he saw that the young master in front of him was none other than Miss Xianyun who had just entered.

She smiled at Jiang Chen and said:

"Women's clothing is too eye-catching. If I dress up like this, people outside won't recognize me. Come on, I'll take you there right now."

Miss Xianyun took him away from the lively crowd, called Zhao Hu, and walked quickly to the back door.

After crossing a few streets, she stopped in front of a silver number.Xianyun winked at him, and then walked in together.

I saw a man who looked like a clerk and came over quickly.He spoke to them warmly;

"Three gentlemen are here. I wonder what kind of business you want to handle, whether it is to save money or exchange banknotes."

Miss Xianyun said to the waiter:

"What we have to do is a large amount of business, and we need to meet with your boss for an interview. Please tell me, man."

The guy looked them up and down, nodded cooperatively, and immediately went to the back to report.

After a moment, he came out and said to them:

"You three gentlemen, the boss invites you to come in and talk."

Miss Xianyun walked in front, and the three of them came to the courtyard at the back. They saw an old man about 50 years old standing at the door, looking at the three people walking towards him.

Xianyun quickly stepped forward and said to him:

"Shopkeeper Gu, Xianyun has come to give you a gift."

Shopkeeper Gu nodded towards Xianyun, then looked at the two people behind him and said:

"Miss Xianyun, who are these two?"

Xianyun approached shopkeeper Gu and said;

"Shopkeeper Gu, there are many people outside, so let's go in first and talk about it later."

Shopkeeper Gu turned around with a dark face and walked into the room first.He didn't seem to welcome them this time. When he entered the room, he sat down on it himself without giving up his seat to them, and said to Xianyun:

"Miss Xianyun, things are different now. I still have the ability to help you deliver the news to the prince. You should find a way to use your own channels. Today's border has changed hands. In order to support your Your Highness, the Crown Prince, was harmed by those treacherous villains, and now his life and death are unknown, and his family members are missing. The Li family is in such a miserable state, and I have not seen you. Prince, please say a good word in front of the Emperor for our general. , It’s really chilling. Our bank account can be opened until now only because we are in Xiliang. If we were in the Xuanwu Dynasty, I’m afraid we would have been wiped out by those traitors. Does Miss Xianyun think that we are still here? Do you have the ability to help you deliver the message?"

Xianyun looked at the shopkeeper Gu in front of him. He was blaming the prince for not protecting the general when such a big thing happened.

She stepped forward and said to him:

"Shopkeeper Gu, we all feel sorry for what happened to the general. But for this debt, we should be looking for Hu Gao and Liu Gu. They were a nest of snakes and rats, colluded with the Xiliang people, and harmed the general. To such an extent. They harmed the general just to bring down the prince. Now that the general has fallen, what weight does the prince have when he speaks in the court? I am afraid that now he cannot even protect himself. You cannot blame all this. It’s the prince’s fault. I came here today not to ask Shopkeeper Gu to help me, but because our prince sent someone to find out about the general’s situation. I hope Shopkeeper Gu can tell the truth.”

Shopkeeper Gu shook his head decisively and said:

"We don't know anything about the general's whereabouts. It's been so long, and it's so rare for His Highness to think of looking for the general."

When Jiang Chen saw this, he quickly stepped forward and said to Shopkeeper Gu;

"Shopkeeper Gu, I came to Xiliang this time specifically to find the whereabouts of the general. His Royal Highness also had trouble sleeping day and night because of this matter. When something happened to the general, the prince felt as if his hands and feet had been cut off. He just had his own thoughts. There is nothing we can do to save the general's family. The emperor was so angry that he wanted to destroy the entire Li family. It was not something that the prince could stop by himself. You have to put aside your grudges and work with us to find the whereabouts of the general. Yes. No matter whether they are dead or alive, we must have a result. This is not only our attitude, but also the attitude of His Highness. Shopkeeper Gu is the general’s old subordinate, and he must work together with us to find the general and give him Let the old man explain."

Shopkeeper Gu glanced at Jiang Chen, and then said to him:

"Since this young master is here with the prince's will, I want to ask you, how are you going to find the general, and where are you going to find it? Do you think you can find the general when you come to the capital of Xiliang? ."

Jiang Chen suddenly asked him:

"Shopkeeper Gu told me where to look."

Shopkeeper Gu blurted out:

"Go...ask me, I don't know either."
