After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine Chapter 76

After Jiang Suizhou blurted out these words, he frightened himself and his heart thumped.

Sure enough, Huo Wujiu had been amiable to him for too long. At the moment, the atmosphere was peaceful, causing him to momentarily speak his mind, actually making such a joke with Huo Wujiu.

Jiang Suizhou formed a faint smile on his face that was calm and composed, despite his heart crumbling into a mess of nervousness. He took a furtive glance at Huo Wujiu from behind the book.

And saw Huo Wujiu pause, raising his eyes to shoot him a look.

Still those calm, unwavering black eyes, with no particular sentiments. The space between his brows was smoothened out, as though not upset.

After that, he surprisingly hooked up the corners of his mouth, revealing a wan smile.

“That truly is a bitter and deep-seated hatred,” Huo Wujiu said.

Somehow, Jiang Suizhou felt that those four words “bitter and deep-seated hatred” carried some profound meaning he didn’t understand.

However, he didn’t bother to probe into this.

He blinked, and stared fixedly at Huo Wujiu, only to feel that his smile was especially pretty.

——

Less than half of Xu Du’s death soldiers were dispatched, there were still roughly ten that remained in the capital. These few days, these people had been delivering intel to Jiang Suizhou in a steady stream. Combined with the news delivered from the court’s officials, these were all the information that Jiang Suizhou could obtain now.

He had carefully read the information delivered to his hands word by word, remembered them in his heart, and tried to analyze Pang Shao’s movements from the various representations of the court’s higher and lower positions.

Sure enough, within a few days, an official from the palace made contact with Pang Shao.

This official wasn’t Pang Shao’s adherent at all. Previously, he basically didn’t have any contact with Pang Shao. But these days, the contact between both of them suddenly became extremely frequent.

But, because of Pang Shao’s excessive vigilance, no matter if it was a secret meeting or for mutual benefits with the other party, he didn’t let Jiang Suizhou’s men find out which official was in contact with him.

Jiang Suizhou had no choice but to analyze with a linkage of his own memory of this section of history.

But, during this period, more than one official was framed by Pang Shao, and the accomplices among them amounted to even a larger number. Jiang Suizhou still pondered over it for a long time, and yet he couldn't determine what exactly Pang Shao was planning.

So on this one day, he summoned Gu Changyun to his room.

Although Gu Changyun wasn’t as reliable as Xu Du, he was extremely clever and had photographic memory. He remembered all the information the original owner had received before he crossed over.

When he hurried to his room, Jiang Suizhou made all the servants go out, leaving only Gu Changyun in the room alone. Then, he took out the information and intel he had sorted out to discuss with Gu Changyun.

The information in their hands was rather complex and tediously long, handling them was also not easy.

Hence, Meng Qianshan, who was long driven away from Jiang Suizhou’s room, folded his arms as he waited below the veranda, feeling bored to death. Straight from early in the morning, he waited until high noon, until Li Changning finished giving Huo Wujiu acupuncture, carrying the medical kit as he came out of Huo Wujiu’s room with Wei Kai.

Meng Qianshan saw them acutely, and as he had nothing to do, he planned to step forward and see them off.

But he didn’t expect these two people to come over to him.

Walking up to him, Li Changning said with a smile, “Why is Meng-gonggong* standing outside the room?”

*form of address for a court eunuch

Meng Qianshan replied with a smile, “Someone is in His Highness’ room, he instructed us to wait outside for a while.”

Smiling, Li Changning nodded. He said, “Madam Huo happened to see you just now, and seemed to have something to ask you. He asked this servant when going out to request you to drop by.”

Meng Qianshan’s heart thumped.

His Highness was seeing Madam Gu in his room, and Madam Huo summoned him for questioning?

Meng Qianshan was terrified in his heart, and had an inauspicious feeling.

He responded with a smile, then rushed into Huo Wujiu’s room.

These two days, the rain just stopped. The sky was still gloomy, so the light in the room wasn’t very good either. Huo Wujiu was leaning against the bedstead, the quilt covering just at his waist, currently flipping through the book in his hands, clearly not reading.

Meng Qianshan hurriedly stepped forward to give his salute.

“Madam Huo, you summoned this humble slave?” he said with a smile.

Huo Wujiu didn’t lift his eyes. “What were you doing standing in the courtyard?”

Although his voice was calm, it was colder than normal. Meng Qianshan feigned ignorance as he shook with fright. “His Highness is receiving a guest, this humble slave went out for fresh air…”

Huo Wujiu stopped fiddling with the book.

He had seen in the morning that the person who entered was Gu Changyun. As soon as Gu Changyun came, Jiang Suizhou drove out all of the people in the room.

All morning, he didn’t feel the pain from the acupuncture at all, and only felt a strange energy tearing at his soul, pulling his thoughts to the main room of Anyin Hall.

He was extremely fidgety, but didn’t know what made him so vexed.

He clearly knew Jingwang didn’t have any other thoughts about him, that it was completely his own misunderstanding. Besides, Jingwang already had concubines, which was different from his own “concubine” title that fell short of reality and was used as a cover.

These were all given facts and had nothing to do with him. Yet, he still thought of these and was terribly vexed, like a stranded beast in a cage.

Huo Wujiu didn’t speak, and Meng Qianshan trembled with fear on the side.

He was obliged to admit, “His Highness summoned Madam Gu in the morning, most likely to discuss some trivial matters of the residence…”

Discussing trivial matters did not need the dismissal of the servants.

Huo Wujiu heard this as though Meng Qianshan was fooling him, but his upset feeling right now seemed to be firmly locked up, so there was no way to express his anger.

He paused.

“En, you may leave,” he said.

Meng Qianshan never thought he would get past this so easily. Granted an amnesty, it didn’t take long for him to turn around and run.

But behind him, Huo Wujiu’s attention was not on him.

He raised his eyes to look outside the window. Beneath the misty, overcast sky, that door was tightly closed.

He only felt that he seemed to be falling into the enemy’s trap.

Firmly surrounded with nowhere to hide, much less to run away.
