Chapter 379: Ubon's Progress
An Yonghou opened his mouth and found that he had nothing to say. He felt that no matter what he said now, it would all be empty talk.
Qi Ningliang saw that the atmosphere was a bit strange, so he quickly came out to smooth things over, "You two are just overthinking. Weren't we discussing the temple? Why did you get so off topic?"
Qi Ning'an also hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, Daddy, you have distracted me."
They smiled at each other and cleverly resolved the awkwardness.
After discussion, they decided to find a senior monk to go to Huguang Residence tomorrow to help with the ritual of praying for the deceased's soul to be reborn. It would be best if all the gossipers in Kyoto Prefecture were informed of this.
On the one hand, in order to have a clear purpose in the future whether it is for a garden party or any other garden project, otherwise this haunted house will always have the reputation of bad feng shui.
On the other hand, Qi Ning'an had just been conferred the title of county lord, so it seemed inappropriate for her to start a large-scale construction and hold a garden party, as if she was showing off everywhere just because she had gained a title.
Besides, if we announce it now, we don't have to worry about no eminent monk coming. It would be better to announce it in advance so that it can be seen clearly.
An Yonghou even took out the drawn blueprints, on which the buildings, the rough gardens, and the landscapes were already drawn. All they had to do was build according to the blueprints.
When Qi Ning'an saw it, he could only sigh and said, it is indeed the most comfortable to compete with one's father.
An Yonghou not only left room for all the things Qi Ningan had mentioned before, he even modified them to be more reasonable, and the movement flow of the entire design is also very comfortable.
"Dad, you are so kind. I was originally planning to figure it out slowly on my own. But you solved all my problems right away."
Qi Ning'an held the blueprint with a smile on his face, but An Yonghou could only smile helplessly.
This girl, who usually doesn't seem to like clothes and jewelry, is surprisingly happy about a blueprint like this.
The three of them chatted until late at night without realizing it. The night wind blew and it became a little chilly.
It turns out that autumn is coming soon. It’s so dazed. I always feel that too many things happened this summer. Before I can react, summer is almost over.
……
At this time, the wind was very strong in Wubang. No one knew what had happened in the past few days. Gu Qingyun cleverly felt that there was indeed a sense of panic.
They finally agreed to Princess Sissi's proposal, but this was no small matter. They had to wait for the memorial to be delivered to Kyoto Prefecture and for the Emperor's order to be issued.
There is no point in them agreeing, they still have to wait for the emperor's decision.
Although Princess Sisi has the blood of the Dayan Dynasty, she also has half the blood of the Ubang Dynasty.
In the past few days, everyone has been searching for clues in Wubang and Wuji City. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, they didn't find out much about Madam Rong's affairs, but they did find out a lot of news about Wubang going to war again.
"Young Master, are we really going to fight?" Xinhai asked while sitting at the foot of the city wall.
Compared to when they were young, they looked handsome, clean and fresh, but now, their faces are covered with wind and sand, and look more wrinkled.
"Yeah, it's normal for Wubang to fight, but I don't know why that guy brought Madam Rong back."
Gu Qingyun was biting a dry and hard beef strip in his mouth. He didn't know when he started to like chewing something while thinking.
It's a pity that the beef strips are not as delicious as those in Kyoto restaurants. They are so hard that they almost break my teeth.
Although he said that he didn't know what to do, Gu Qingyun still vaguely sensed it.
She must have been sent to Ubang by someone for the purpose of negotiation, and I think she was exchanged for some conditions.
To put it simply, it would probably just be exchanged for some small amount of money, land, or some small official position.
However, this idea changed after Gu Qingyun received the memorial sent from Kyoto Prefecture.
The master has collected a large amount of evidence of the crimes committed by the Nanzhou Hua family and the King of Zhenxi. All the evidence points to one direction: they are still harboring evil intentions.
Plus the lotus base before and Princess Sissi’s words later.
Most likely, they used Madam Rong to exchange for the honor of a family, or even... the Hua family of Nanzhou, the King of Zhenxi, Wubang Alianmi... Perhaps there are many forces and characters hidden in the darkness that have not been found, and they have united to plan a huge conspiracy.
So many examples put together, if it wasn’t for the sake of the Dayan Dynasty, then what was it for?
However, precisely because so many forces are combined together, Gu Qingyun is not in a hurry.
These forces seemed huge and complex, but in fact, they were just paper tigers when united. They were constantly fighting among themselves, so how could they really unite?
It’s just because we now have the same ideas and needs.
However, it is impossible to say that he was completely unprepared. While Gu Qingyun was sending the memorial back at the post station, he also used the killer weapon that the emperor had secretly prepared for him before he left, a secret weapon that even the secret guards did not know about.
Gu Qingyun told the emperor what happened here and his own guesses.
Obviously, before they took over the Great Yan Dynasty, they might still unite together, but after all, their needs and wants are different.
What the King of Zhenxi wants is the kingdom of Dayan Dynasty, what Wu Bang wants is the territory of Dayan Dynasty, and what the Hua family of Nanzhou wants is money and power.
Although it seems that the needs are the same, but if you think about it carefully, everyone has their own wants and ulterior motives.
Once they really start fighting for the throne of Dayan Dynasty, once they start taking action, they will easily fall apart.
Especially with Ubang mixed in, even its internal forces are in chaos.
It seems that the ones who had been looking for Qi Ningan's whereabouts were the King of Zhenxi and the Hua family of Nanzhou. Their alliance, which was already not very solid, was even more precarious because of the attack from the late emperor.
So the two families came up with the same idea even though they were separated.
Everyone in Kyoto Prefecture knew that the little daughter that An Yonghou had lost was found, and that the whole family of An Yonghou had done their best for that little daughter.
As long as the little daughter is found, it will not only threaten Marquis An Yong, but also the other party.
After all, a lot of evidence is in An Yonghou's hands, and over the years, he has more or less fallen into some handles.
Marquis An Yong is a man who will not yield to any attack no matter how you try to target him. He is also extremely upright, and both the Emperor and the late Emperor trust him very much.
But the loss of his little daughter and the death of his first wife seemed to be a thorn in his heart.
As long as the little daughter could be found, everyone felt that everything was possible.
But no one expected that, by some strange coincidence, it was Marquis An Yong himself who found his youngest daughter first.
Gu Qingyun speculated that they would lose the initiative and would most likely start rebelling before the emperor began a thorough investigation.
