Chapter 881: Zhen Sushan: Can I use a beauty trap on Gu Hanyuan?

In foreign nations,

young women are a precious resource.

Thus, there has always been a tradition of brothers inheriting from brothers, and sons from fathers.

The Tangut people of Western Xia have not been influenced by Confucian thought.

The act of seizing others' wives is even more commonplace.

But Li Yuanhao, as Emperor,

unashamedly seizing the wives of his high-ranking officials and his own Crown Princess,

is equivalent to sowing the seeds of disaster.

Clearly, he has become muddled to the extreme.

No wonder news of Li Yuanhao being in poor health has spread.

Most likely, he is just busy dallying with beauties.

Upon hearing this, Zhen Sushan was also somewhat surprised.

She had not expected that the once wise and martial Li Yuanhao would be so muddled in his later years.

She said in a deep voice:

"If we cannot mobilize troops to enter the city, it will be quite troublesome."

The Western Xia Imperial Palace is guarded by thousands of Imperial Guards.

Moreover, there is a mysterious Imperial Concubine who controls the Western Xia Yipintang.

This mysterious Imperial Concubine also has a son, Li Liangzuo.

It is said that he is highly favored by Li Yuanhao.

If Li Ninglingge is deposed,

Li Liangzuo is the most likely to ascend.

Therefore, if we cannot wipe them all out in one fell swoop,

merely killing Li Yuanhao may not necessarily allow us to install Li Ninglingge.

Fang Yeyu had long been prepared for this.

He said confidently:

"I have already sent Ying Fei to the Jiugong, to help the people of the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands launch a rebellion. Once they take the Jiugong, Ying Fei will bring the people of the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands to the Western Xia Imperial City.

Although they are a rabble, their numbers are not small; as long as they can hold back the Imperial Palace guards for a period of time, it will be enough for our operation."

Zhen Sushan was shocked upon hearing this and said:

"The Jiugong? Are you crazy? Aren't you afraid that Ying Fei will die at the hands of the Tianshan Child Elder?"

Fang Yeyu still smiled confidently:

"The Tianshan Child Elder has not appeared for a long time; the people of the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands speculate that she may have already died of old age. Previously, they even captured a young girl from the Jiugong to test this, and they were not punished afterward.

Given the Tianshan Child Elder's ruthless character, if everything were fine, how could she have let them off?"

Zhen Sushan, however, felt that Fang Yeyu was being overly confident.

To risk attacking the Jiugong based on such meager information.

She bit her thin lips, deep in thought.

Suddenly, her expression shifted.

She asked in a low voice:

"What about that young girl?"

Fang Yeyu said with an inscrutable expression:

"It is said she was taken away by the 'Three Absolutes Sword Immortal' Gu Hanyuan."

Zhen Sushan exclaimed:

"Gu Hanyuan!"

She had not expected that she would have been paying attention to Gu Hanyuan during the day,

only to hear news about him at night.

Gu Hanyuan similarly had not expected that he would become the subject of gossip himself.

Although Fang Yeyu's speculation was wrong,

it happened to hit the mark by accident.

Wu Xingyun is currently not at the Jiugong,

but is hiding in the Western Xia Imperial Palace, waiting to impersonate Li Qinglu.

As for why Wu Xingyun did not punish the people of the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands after returning to the Jiugong,

it is because she has recently been focusing her entire mind on Gu Hanyuan,

and thus forgot about the people of the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands.

However, if things proceed normally,

once Wu Xingyun achieves her wish through the identity of Li Qinglu,

and returns to the Jiugong,

she will surely settle scores with the people of the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands.

Gu Hanyuan's gaze was deep.

The Jiugong is his own private territory,

and naturally, it cannot fall into the hands of the Mongol Yuan.

Moreover, he knows what kind of person Ying Fei is:

he enjoys toying with women,

and heartlessly abandons them after he grows tired of them.

The women of the Jiugong must not be ruined by him.

Fang Yeyu was somewhat displeased by Zhen Sushan's reaction.

He asked in a deep voice:

"You have already met Gu Hanyuan, haven't you? How was he?"

With Zhen Sushan's intelligence and quick-wittedness, how could she not see what Fang Yeyu was thinking at this moment?

While feeling slightly amused, Gu Hanyuan's appearance flashed through her mind.

She deliberately laughed coquettishly:

"Very handsome, much better looking than you."

Fang Yeyu's face darkened.
