Chapter 523 This is a grand event, don’t get it into my hands

The woman in black put the knife back into the scabbard angrily, then turned her head and looked at the man in black and said.

"You've come here, but you can't come in vain. Since this old beggar is in the temple where Gu Chan lives, he must have a close relationship with him. Let's arrest him first."

"Yes, boss." The man in black responded respectfully.

Then he took out the rope he had prepared earlier and tied up the nine-fingered old beggar.

The nine-fingered old beggar said with a depressed look, "I'm really just a beggar, what's the point of tying me up? There's always a wrongdoer and a debtor, so you're looking for Gu Chan! There's no need to kidnap me, right?"


"Stop talking nonsense, you old guy, do you think I can't tell that you are a master? I asked someone to tie you up and you didn't resist, so what's your peace of mind?" the woman in black said coldly.

The nine-fingered old beggar chuckled, closed his mouth and said no more.

The female man in black was confused and couldn't figure out what kind of medicine this old thing was selling in his gourd, but she didn't want to leave empty-handed. She left a note in front of the Buddha statue, and then she and the male man in black He led the nine-fingered old beggar and left the temple.

Early the next morning, Gu Chan took a merchant ship and returned to Chang's Wharf safely.

On the merchant ship at this time, there were not only her and Yuan Jie, but also Cheng Hao and Yuan Ying. After such a long period of torture, both of them were not in good mental condition and looked very embarrassed.

After getting off the merchant ship, Gu Chan immediately called for a carriage, helped the two of them into the carriage, and then took them back to Jigong Temple in Jiangnan City.

After dawn, Gu Chan finally brought the three of them back to Jigong Temple safely.

But this time, Gu Chan was dumbfounded.

She looked everywhere for the nine-fingered old beggar, but she couldn't find him at all. Finally, she found the writing paper left by the woman in black in the Buddhist hall last night.

I saw the note saying, "If you want this old guy to be fine, come see me at Jiangnan Academy."

When Yuan Jie saw this, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Shopkeeper, it seems that the other party was not idle last night! You took people to rescue my sister and the others on the Tiancang River, and the other party also sent people to sneak into Jiangnan City to catch your people. , we really thought of going together.”

"Hmph! Let me tell you, Shui Yue is not a simple woman! In my opinion, she didn't even think about coming directly to Jiangnan City last night. She happened to take advantage of the strong wind and waves caused by Sogou to cross the Tiancang River. Then she brought people secretly to deal with me, but I thought the same thing. I originally wanted to save Cheng Hao and Yuan Jie and deal with her at the same time." Gu Chan couldn't laugh or cry.

"Yes! That means both sides failed." Yuan Jie said.

Gu Chan looked at the note in his hand and smiled, then said, "By the way, guess who is coming to arrest the old gang leader?"

"Last night we sneaked into the leading warship, but we didn't find General Shuiyue, so she was probably the one who captured the old gang leader." Yuan Jie guessed.

"In this way, you first take care of Cheng Hao and Yuan Ying, and then send someone to inform Di Lin on the Dahuaxia and ask him to continue to monitor every move of the enemy. I will go to sleep first, and I will take Bai Hu for a meeting yesterday. Sisters," Gu Chan ordered.

Yuan Jie nodded quietly and immediately went to the backyard to take care of Cheng Hao and Yuan Ying.

Gu Chan did not continue to stay in the Buddhist hall, but went back to her room in the backyard, hugged the white fox and fell asleep.

At noon, just as she was sleeping soundly, Yan Xishan ran over in a hurry and knocked on the door. Gu Chan was woken up and said with a look of displeasure, "Who is it! What are you knocking on?"

"The lord is in trouble, something big has happened. The young prince was taken away by two men in black last night. They also killed several of my guards!" Yan Xishan was anxious to report outside the door.

"I know, you can go back! I'm not feeling comfortable yet!" Gu Chan said impatiently.

Yan Xishan was confused, "Lord, does this matter not matter? Why do I feel that you don't care at all?"

"That idiot Nangong Jin is gone if he's gone. Anyway, I have little use for him now, and it's useless to keep him. Let him go! Go back quickly and prepare some supplies, and send them to Jiangnan Academy in my name. , just tell the academicians that I gave it to the new distinguished guests," Gu Chan said angrily.

After saying that, she continued to hug the white fox and fell asleep.

Yan Xishan stood at the door, dumbfounded. Monk Zhang Er was completely confused.

In the end, he could only foolishly leave and go back to the Yushi Mansion. According to Gu Chan's instructions, he prepared a generous gift and sent someone to send it to Jiangnan Academy and hand it over to the academicians.

In the afternoon, Gu Chan woke up feeling refreshed.

After getting up, washing up, and eating something to fill her stomach, she went to the small courtyard where Cheng Hao and his wife lived to check on their condition.

After this day of rest, the condition of the two of them was much better than last night.

Cheng Hao lay on the bed and said with guilt on his face, "Master, I'm sorry, I'm not strong enough, otherwise the two of us would not have become prisoners, and we would have had to trouble you to personally rescue us."

"Okay, you don't have to blame yourself too much. Facing an opponent like the Crown Prince, I was forced to do nothing, let alone you. Now you don't have to think about anything, just lie down on the bed and take care of me. , after I finish handling the matter here, you have to go back to Nancheng and continue to take care of the county government for me," Gu Chan said with relief.

Cheng Hao and Yuanying were moved to tears, and they felt even more sorry for Gu Chan.

Gu Chan didn't want to say any more. After explaining a few words, she immediately left with Bai Hu and rushed to Jiangnan Academy.

When Gu Chan arrived at the gate of Jiangnan Academy, it was already dark.

Before she could lead Bai Hu into the gate, an old academician walked out, bowed to her and said, "Lord, please follow me. Your distinguished guest has been waiting for you in Tingfeng Garden for a long time."

"By the way, old academician, isn't there going to be a poetry meeting in the middle of next month? Why is there still no movement from your side? Don't you go to Mr. Yan to report it and then make preparations?" Gu Chan While following the old academician in, he asked.

The last time Yanli planned to frame her at Jiangnan Academy, she mentioned the poetry club. However, after so many big events happened in succession, she had no time to care about the poetry club. It was not until now that she came here again. Think of this.

The old academician sighed and said, "Lord! Nowadays, all the officials, merchants and wealthy people in the Jiangnan area are in danger. The Crown Prince's army is on the way, and they are watching. We at Jiangnan Academy are assessing the situation, so naturally we don't dare to I have to prepare for the poetry meeting, otherwise according to the habit of previous years, the preparations would have been almost completed.”

"Don't! This annual poetry gathering in the Jiangnan area is a grand event! This year, you can't let it fall into my hands, Gu Chan. You go to Master Yan tonight to discuss how much money you need to organize. Just ask, and I will give you directly. If Yan Xishan dares to say no, come to me and I will be the first to slap him." Gu Chan waved his hand and said.

The old academician stopped and turned his head to look at Gu Chan with wide eyes. He couldn't believe his ears.
