Chapter 1149: Chapter 1149

"So that's how it is, that's how it is..."

Gu Mu urged, "Sir, do you have any thoughts?"

Jin Gaochi looked at him and said:

"Does Your Highness still remember when Young Master Xingyuan appeared yesterday and Your Highness asked him to break the impasse?"

Gu Mu nodded and said, "Of course I remember, at that time it was extremely perilous, if not for him, we would have been in danger."

Jin Gaochi handed over the letter in his hand and said, "Then you should also remember what Young Master Xingyuan said at that time."

Gu Mu frowned in thought, first appearing enlightened, then showing bitterness.

Jin Gaochi sighed and said, "At that time, Young Master Xingyuan said, 'Mr. Jin and I have history, this time, I will grant your request.'

'However, this should not set a precedent, okay?'

"At that time, the subordinate only thought about breaking this impasse, so I agreed without thinking deeply. So, this letter now contains Young Master Xingyuan's reply, a reminder to us asking for his help again."

Jin Gaochi shook the letter in his hand, smiled wryly, and said:

"This should not set a precedent."

"But this time, it is already the 'next time', hence he avoids meeting us."

Gu Mu opened his mouth and said, "But from the actions of Donghu and the others, it seems that even if we hadn't asked, that crisis would have resolved on its own." Orıginal content can be found at novel⦿fire.net

"Perhaps from the beginning, Young Master Xingyuan had already foreseen these things, including our reactions."

"Never thought there truly exists someone who can foresee the future."

Gu Mu shook his head and sighed, "Then what do we do this time? Is there really no way?"

Jin Gaochi also fell silent, unable to respond. Ya Die, who had been silent beside them, suddenly spoke up, "I do not understand, but Your Highness, Mr. Jin, what if 'this should not set a precedent' does not mean that, or is not just that?"

Gu Mu and Jin Gaochi lifted their eyes to look at the young girl.

Ya Die seemed to gather her courage, looked at these two high and mighty figures, and said:

"Your Highness and Mr. Jin want to find Young Master Wang."

"Then why are you already giving up before you even start looking?"

"After all, there is nothing to lose, why not try with all your might?"

Gu Mu was stunned, his mind racing for a moment, and he closed his eyes, then suddenly laughed heartily, saying, "Indeed! Indeed! Giving up before even searching, such a person cannot become the king..."

"Mr. Jin, could you trouble yourself to bring people here and carefully search for any traces Young Master Wang has left behind, make every effort, even if we do not find him, there will be no regrets."

Jin Gaochi received the order solemnly and left.

Gu Mu looked at Ya Die and sighed, "Never thought, I considered myself superior, yet at this time, I can't see as clearly as a gentle maid like you, what is your name?"

Gu Qinghan sneezed, rubbed his nose, and fed the small black-and-white beast in his arms with a hint of boredom. They were now in a courtyard that appeared very ordinary from the outside, a property he had bought earlier, a place to rest when idle. Of course, at this moment, the title deed no longer belonged to him.

He looked at Wang Anfeng.

The young man in white sat lazily on the lounge chair in the guest hall, his black hair like ink, eyes half-closed, holding a bronze hollow stove in his hand, looking lazy and carefree.

Gu Qinghan was somewhat puzzled. Clearly, after doing such a great thing for that Second Prince, it was a time of wealth and honor, when success was within reach. Why leave directly?

Could it really be because he acts on a whim?

This way of acting really is quite like the style of the Blade Madman.

A thought suddenly flashed through Gu Qinghan's mind.

But if it were indeed , everyone who came that day would already be reeking by now.

Tch, bury them while they're hot.

After all, that was the lord who burns mountains and brews wine...

Can't understand, can't understand.

But it doesn't matter, at this time, just extending a thumb, sincerely saying, "High, really high," is enough.

Wang Anfeng tucked his right hand into his sleeve, unconsciously calculating, somewhat absent-minded.

He was calculating whether his strategy had succeeded.

After all, it was his first time analyzing the situation and dealing with the enemy by himself after leaving the mentor and the Master, with his martial arts limited, he couldn't help but be cautious.

Calculated several times with Heavenly Secrets and fortune readings, all concluding success and completion.

But because previous readings had misjudged, he felt that this time it might also be wrong, pondering to himself, but he only used a stratagem of sowing discord, it shouldn't fail so easily.

Originally, he did not have this plan, but happened to overhear the argument between Hu Xuan'er and that man, guessed there was a rift between them, and so abandoned his original plan and went with the flow, implementing the stratagem of sowing discord.

A strategist merely understands the great trend and guides accordingly.

These are the words of the mentor.

The more brilliant the strategy, the simpler it seems, the hard part is just the timing.

Most who dream of flawless strategies are fools.

The human heart is unpredictable, the more complex it is, the easier it is to err.

The strategy is simple, but how to use this simple strategy, when to use it, and the magnitude of its destructive effect, this is the difference between third-rate and top-tier.

Among the age-old strategies in military books, when counted, there are only a few types like sowing discord and chaining strategies, some can shake the world with them, others merely provoke laughter, all because in the art of strategy, the great trend comes first, those who can see through the great trend of the world, their strategy may be simple, yet they are the top strategists in the world, throughout history, all have been this way, guiding according to trends.

"Of course, those who understand the great trend and still choose to go against the heavens."
