Chapter 758 News From the Capital
Gu Fei said angrily: "You are becoming more and more slick now."
She stepped in, Qin'er stood at the door without moving, Gu Fei turned around, "Qin'er, you come in too."
Qin'er then came in and closed the door.
The room was no different from an ordinary inn, with a bed and a round table with a few chairs around it.
Xue Chen poured two cups of tea, and Gu Fei asked Qin'er to sit down, but Qin'er refused to sit and insisted on standing by the door, so Gu Fei had to let her go.
Xue Chen glanced at Qin Er. Miss Gu must be someone close to her since she let her in. So he didn't hide anything and smiled, "It's only been a month since we last met. Miss is more charming than ever."
Gu Fei glared at him, "Let's talk business."
"How is the capital now?"
Xue Chen then said seriously, "I just got the news that the court has mobilized Qin Guogong's Red Dragon Army to the northwest, and 20,000 soldiers and horses from the camp outside the capital have also been withdrawn, led by Ning Guogong, to prepare to attack An Guogong from both sides."
Gu Fei nodded slowly.
Xue Chen suddenly approached her, "Last time you asked me to find out about the two princes, and later I heard that the two princes were rescued from the lake island. You did it, right?"
Gu Fei neither admitted nor denied, but just said: "How did the emperor react to the disappearance of several princes?"
Xue Chen suddenly laughed, "That night, the people of the Five City Military Department and the Red Guards were all over the capital to capture the demons of the Red Lotus Sect."
"It has been a commotion for several days. Several nests of the Red Lotus Sect near the capital have been destroyed, and many disciples of the so-called Holy Mother have also been arrested." Xue Chen winked, "You played this frame-up beautifully."
Gu Fei coughed lightly "When did I frame you?"
"This matter has nothing to do with me."
Xue Chen did not argue with her, "But I heard that the emperor was furious in the palace that day and immediately ordered the Zhuyi Guard to arrest the princes."
"It was Prime Minister Su and Duke Ning who persuaded them, saying that arresting the princes at this moment would not help, but would cause dissatisfaction among the princes. Now Duke Anguo and Prince Dai have not been dealt with yet, and the court cannot force the princes to rebel at this moment."
"The emperor endured it."
Gu Fei glanced at him, "You are really capable. It has only been a short time, and you can even find out the news in the palace. . "
Xue Chen laughed, "In fact, the eunuchs in the palace are easy to bribe."
"Sometimes they look insignificant, but in fact they know a lot of things."
"Besides, I don't want them to do anything to harm others. It's just to pass on information. There is no risk. They can get money, so why not do it?"
"If you need news from the palace in the future, I can ask someone to pass it to you every day."
Gu Fei nodded, "Okay, I need news from the palace. No matter big or small, as long as it's about the palace, pass it to me."
She tilted her head, "You pass on news every day. The person you bribed is not simple. . "
Xue Chen chuckled a few times, "You guessed wrong."
"Ruyi Tower bribed those insignificant people in the palace. Who of the powerful eunuchs would be interested in my little money?"
"There is a little eunuch who specializes in pulling the night fragrance car and is responsible for collecting all the information. Every day when he pulls the night fragrance car out of the palace, he will give the information to my people."
Gu Fei's mouth twitched slightly, "This is really a good idea."
She thought for a while, knocked on the table lightly, looked at Xue Chen meaningfully and said: "Now that King An and King Dai have rebelled, King Chu and King Wei are no longer under the jurisdiction of the court, and the chaotic world has come-"
