Died In Infancy! My Wife Is Actually A Villain

Chapter 134 Begging For Mercy

King Jin!

Hearing Nangong Qian mention King Jin, Gu Chen's eyelids twitched slightly and he suddenly began to ponder.

He sent Gu Tianming to the northern border. When he left, his father sent tens of thousands of soldiers to him to guard the northern border area and prevent the Mobei people from harassing him.

Seeing Gu Chen's silence, Nangong Qian reminded him in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I think King Jin must be coveting the throne. He often asks about you every time he writes letters to my father."

Nangong Qian's words interrupted Gu Chen's original thoughts. He came back to his senses and looked at Nangong Qian in front of him.

Without the other party's reminder, Gu Chen also knew that Gu Tianming coveted the throne, otherwise he wouldn't have made so many small moves. However, when he was sent to the northern border, he was surrounded by heavy soldiers and had no chance to take action.

After thinking briefly, Gu Chen asked: "I can give you a chance, but how can you make me believe that you will help me?!"

It doesn't matter to Gu Chen whether he kills Nangong Qian or not.

Moreover, Nangong Qian is Nangong Jue's biological son, so staying with the old guy would definitely be more useful to him than killing him.

Of course, Gu Chen could also see that the other party was a weakling with no spirit. With a little scare, he might reveal everything he knew. Even his biological father who betrayed him could be so decisive.

But it is this kind of person who is extremely afraid of death and has some status, it is best to handle it.

Now the relationship between Prince Zhuang's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion is almost broken.

But Nangong Qian is also the prime minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He has been with him since Emperor Wu came to the throne. His status is lower than that of one person and higher than that of ten thousand people.

Even if Gu Chen wanted to bring him down, he would have to obtain some real-time evidence to make him completely unpopular with Emperor Wu and lose the support of court officials.

If Nangong Qian can provide these values, Gu Chen doesn't mind letting him go.

Of course, the premise is that Gu Chen can control the opponent.

When asked by Gu Chen, Nangong Qian suddenly hesitated.

He could feel that King Zhuang did not trust him. If he did not show enough sincerity, the other party would definitely not let him go back.

I don’t know how long he thought about it, but Nangong Qian lowered his head and said solemnly: "My father made a lot of money after becoming the prime minister, and Nangong Yue's store business, he also accumulated a lot of money. This is my My father’s destiny, even as a son, I cannot interfere too much. As long as I tell the prince where the money is hidden, the prince will have a handle on me."

"Really?"

Gu Chen became interested and asked curiously: "Can you tell me where the money is hidden?"

Even though he was a prince, he didn't have much savings. Even to buy food, he had to use the money Jiang Anran earned from opening a store.

If he could loot all the money from the Prime Minister's Office, it would indeed be of great help to him.

"Xiankeju, Nangong Yue personally runs the restaurant, and the place where the money is hidden is on the third floor of the restaurant, inside a secret door in the second room. The secret door needs to be opened by twisting the white porcelain bottle in the room..."

Nangong Qian whispered, telling Gu Chen all the specific locations where the money was hidden.

Emperor Wu had always hated corrupt officials, and his original incorruptibility was the end of it.

Although my father was also greedy, he did not dare to hide the money in the house, for fear that one day the incident would come to light and someone would get the handle on him.

Therefore, every time the money was recovered, his father would put it with Nangong Yue and leave it to her to manage. In addition, Nangong Yue was originally in business, so under normal circumstances, she could not be traced.

Although Nangong Yue is now married to Prince Yun's Mansion, the money is still kept with her.

It wasn't until Nangong Qian finished speaking that Gu Chen slowly spoke: "I am quite satisfied with this condition, but you will be in jail for a while. If I really get the money from Xiankeju, I will consider letting you go. "

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Nangong Qian bowed his head respectfully, feeling relieved and completely relieved.

Although he betrayed his father, fortunately his life was saved.

As long as you live, no matter what you pay, it will not be a loss.

And if he could gain Prince Zhuang's trust, it would be a good thing for him.

After all, among all the current princes, Prince Zhuang is the most likely to ascend the throne in the future.

After the negotiation was completed, Gu Chen called Xiao Zuo in.

Xiao Zuo first looked at Nangong Qian, then at the three imperial doctors behind him and the fake Nangong Qian, "Your Highness, how should we deal with these people?"

"Don't worry, just keep an eye on it here for me. I'll go out and be back soon."

"OK."

Xiao Zuo didn't ask too much and nodded directly in agreement.

....

After leaving, Gu Chen immediately returned to Prince Zhuang's Mansion and asked Liu Yun to gather people to prepare for the Xiankeju in the city.

"Your Highness, are you going out again so late?"

Seeing that Gu Chen was about to go out just after he came back, Jiang Heyan ran out quickly and asked with concern.

Her eyebrows were slightly arched, a hint of sadness appeared on her delicate face, and her bright eyes looked at Gu Chen in front of her seriously, not wanting him to be too busy with official duties.

Gu Chen couldn't help but touched the other person's head, with a warm smile on his face, "I'll be back soon after finishing my work. If you're sleepy, just take a rest and don't wait for me."

Jiang Heyan pursed her lips and said with some reluctance: "Then come back early and don't stay out too late."

"OK."

After bidding farewell to Jiang Heyan, Gu Chen immediately took Liu Yun and others to Xiankeju in the inner city.

It was night time now, and there were almost no people walking on the street.

"Your Highness, who are we this time?" Liu Yun asked curiously.

When the prince came back, he didn't explain the situation clearly to him, but just told him to gather people.

Gu Chen did not answer, but directly ordered: "Send someone to open the door for me. Remember to be gentle and don't make too much noise."

Upon seeing this, Liu Yun immediately sent two guards to open the door. In less than half a quarter of an hour, the iron chain of the gate of Xiankeju was pried open by the guards.

Immediately, Gu Chen walked in with a group of guards.

The store was very dark and I couldn't see my fingers. Gu Chen asked someone to take out a fire stick to light the way and walked up to the third floor.

After a while, Gu Chen and others arrived at the room that Nangong Qian was talking about. The door was still tightly bound by the iron lock. Liu Yun hurriedly opened the iron rope with the two guards who had just arrived.
