Oh my god, can you play like this?

Chapter 136 Awesome!

Gu Lanzhi collected himself under the service of Mo Yi and Mo Er. As he walked to the dining hall, he asked Mo Yi, "Have you ever heard of ferocious beasts like tigers and leopards in the mountains near Kyoto?"

Mo Yi thought for a moment and said, "It seems that there are tigers in Wufeng Mountain, which is more than 500 miles away from Kyoto.

As for leopards, they seem to be found in the mountains around Kyoto. They are not common, but they do exist.”

"Wufeng Mountain?" Gu Lanzhi stopped and looked back at Mo Yi.

“Yes, Wufeng Mountain is named after the five mountains connected together. I heard that you have to go to the third peak to encounter wild beasts.

The first and second peaks are relatively low, and wild beasts basically do not appear in these two peaks.

But in recent years, people have had a hard time, so some of them took the risk of going deeper into the mountains. It was because those people encountered tigers that the news was passed back to Kyoto. "

Gu Lanzhi nodded, lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "Let's make some arrangements. I want to go to Wufeng Mountain."

Mo Er looked at Gu Lanzhi in confusion, "Master, do you have anything to do at Wufeng Mountain? I will do it for you. Your injury is not healed, so it is not easy for you to travel far."

In ancient times, there were no fast means of transportation. A horse-drawn carriage could only travel more than 300 miles a day. Even if you drove as fast as you could, it would still take at least a day to travel from Kyoto to Wufeng Mountain.

For the ancients, a journey of three or four days was considered a long journey, and a journey of one day in a horse carriage was also considered a long journey.

Gu Lanzhi smiled, looked at Mo Er and said, "Your master, I am going to catch some wild animals and bring them back to raise for fun. As for what kind of wild animals we will catch, we will have to see what we can encounter at that time.

You can't replace me in this, just listen to me and go get ready."

Mo Yi and Mo Er both disagreed with Gu Lanzhi's words. It was just catching a wild beast. Their subordinates could do it for them.

But they both knew that since their master had said so, they would not change their minds even if they opposed him.

In this case, the two of them could only prepare more things so that their master would not suffer along the way.

When they arrived at the dining hall, the eldest lady was listening to Gu Jingcheng and Gu Shurui talking about the assassination of the emperor.

This matter has been widely spread, and has spread throughout Kyoto.

"Brother, brother, you came at the right time. You have also received the news that the emperor was assassinated, right?" Gu Shurui asked anxiously.

Gu Lanzhi nodded and sat next to the eldest lady.

"So, brother, do you have any ideas?"

"Ideas? What ideas can I have?" Gu Lanzhi looked at Gu Shurui strangely.

"The emperor was assassinated in the imperial study. How powerful must the thief be to be able to enter the imperial study and assassinate him!

Brother, you are a military commander. How powerful do you think someone must be to be able to do something so earth-shattering?"

Gu Lanzhi drank his tea slowly and said, "The news I got is that the palace doesn't even know how many people entered the palace to assassinate the emperor, which means that the palace guards didn't even see the assassin.

Being able to assassinate the emperor so quietly and without leaving a trace, and not even taking his life, can only mean that the assassin didn't really want to kill the emperor."

"Ah? Why?" Gu Shurui asked without thinking.

Gu Jingcheng looked at Gu Shurui with disdain, "Fourth brother, the assassin has already arrived in front of the emperor. He has such a good opportunity, how could he not just take the emperor's life!

It is said that there were only the second prince and the emperor in the imperial study at that time, and they were no match for the killer.

That can only mean that the assassin didn't really want to kill the emperor, but just wanted to teach him a lesson."

"Look, look, even a little kid can understand this, why don't you use your brain more?

You're not stupid at all, why are you so lazy! "Gu Lanzhi also looked at Gu Shurui with disdain.

Gu Shurui touched his nose embarrassedly, "I'm used to it. With you guys here, why do I need to use my brain?"

Gu Lanzhi shook his head, sighed softly, and looked at Gu Jingcheng, "Tell me, what else do you think of?"

"I think that the person who assassinated the emperor yesterday was probably just one person."

Gu Lanzhi looked at Gu Jingcheng with admiration, "Why?"

“If there really were multiple people breaking into the palace to assassinate, it’s impossible that no guards would have discovered it, and it’s impossible that everyone’s kung fu is so good.

That can only mean that it is one person, and that this person has extremely high Kung Fu skills."

Gu Lanzhi nodded with satisfaction, "Continue."

"The emperor must have done something to anger the assassin, or the person behind the assassin, so the assassin entered the palace.

I didn't go to the palace to assassinate the emperor, I just wanted to teach him a lesson."

Gu Lanzhi smiled and stroked Gu Jingcheng's hair, "Then why didn't you go for the Second Prince?"

"Impossible, the Second Prince must have done it by chance.

If the assassin was targeting the Second Prince, he could have waited until the Second Prince returned home before assassinating him.

The guards in the Prince's Mansion are not of the same level as the guards in the Imperial Palace. No one would be stupid enough to risk entering the Imperial Palace just to assassinate the Second Prince."

"Great!" Gu Lanzhi was not stingy with his praise for Gu Jingcheng.

The reason why Gu Lanzhi could discuss this matter so unscrupulously was because anyone with a little bit of intelligence could see clearly what the purpose of this assassination was.

In that case, what's wrong with them discussing it in their own house?

Mo Yi and Mo Er looked at each other, and then looked at Gu Lanzhi meaningfully.

If they didn't know that what happened last night was closely related to their master, and now seeing their master's indifferent look, they would not have connected their master with what happened last night.
