The Legend of the Condor Heroes: I became one of the Five Great Masters by drawing cards

Chapter 10 Plan
"No need to be polite, brother."

Gu Ping'an quickly waved his hands. Being stared at by so many people, he felt inexplicably embarrassed for a moment.

"Miss Mu, please introduce this young man to us."

The person who spoke was one of the three Taoists. He looked a little weak and must be Wang Chuyi who had been poisoned earlier.

Mu Nianci turned her head to glance at Gu Ping'an, then quickly looked away and spoke softly.

"This is Master Gu Ping'an. The other day, my father took me to the city to compete in a martial arts competition to find a husband. The young prince of the Jin Kingdom attacked him frivolously, but Master Gu came to his rescue in time and injured him."

"Ah! That's right!" Guo Jing suddenly shouted, "I was wondering why Brother Gu looked so familiar. It turns out it was that day!"

Mu Nianci ignored him and continued, "At that time, those palace masters used Qinggong to chase him, but they seemed to be quickly thrown off. When they saw Master Gu again, I don't know why..."

She paused here and subconsciously looked at Gu Ping'an.

"That's alright." Gu Ping'an nodded gently at her, his tone gentle, "Just tell me the truth, young lady."

"I don't know how Young Master Gu got into the palace, and the young prince personally brought him to my father's and my cell. My father didn't understand what was going on and scolded him, but he remained calm and whispered that he had come to save us."

There was a hint of partiality in Mu Nianci's words, and she did not mention Gu Ping'an's identity as a "master of the royal palace" at all.

"Then there was the matter of saving us tonight, which I have just told all the seniors about."

"I see." The one who spoke was the scholar among the Six Freaks of Jiangnan. "Miss Huang, may I ask how you met this Young Master Gu?"

"This is the first time I meet this young man today." Huang Rong nodded.

She had never clashed with the six monsters before, so she would not offend her lover's masters for no reason. She briefly recounted how she was discovered eavesdropping in the palace and how she escaped with the help of his palm power during their fight.

"really!"

Among all the people present, except Huang Rong, the most intelligent one was the "Miraculous Scholar" Zhu Cong, who guessed Gu Ping'an's identity as an "undercover" in a blink of an eye.

"'In Cao's camp, but heart is with Han'. It turns out that Young Master Gu went to the palace as a spy. He is indeed very courageous!"

"Senior Zhu, thank you for your compliment. I am unworthy of it!" Gu Ping'an, who always maintained a humble character, quickly bowed and said.

Zhu Cong was a little surprised: "Oh? You recognize me?"

Gu Pingan smiled shyly, "The Seven Heroes of Jiangnan are renowned, and the 'Miraculous Scholar' is exceptionally talented. With all the seniors gathered here, wouldn't it seem rather unsophisticated if I didn't recognize him?"

Everyone praised him for his intelligence, and Mu Nianci looked at him with a glint in her eyes.

Zhu Cong also wanted to test him, so he asked with a smile, "Then, do you recognize these three Taoist priests?"

Wang Chuyi's injury has not healed yet; Ma Yu is well versed in Taoism and has a kind face; Qiu Chuji has always hated evil and is more like a chivalrous hero.

When these three people stand together, they can be distinguished at a glance.

How could they know that Gu Ping'an was a cheater? They just thought that although he was young, his vision and knowledge were extraordinary.

[Easily guess the identities of the Three Quanzhen Masters and the Six Weirdos of Jiangnan, successfully demonstrate your divine power in public, and be rewarded with 200 Jianghu Reputation points.]

[Reputation level remains unchanged: Advanced (2050/10000) => Advanced (2250/10000)]

After greeting all the seniors one by one, Gu Ping'an was also invited to sit down and drink together.

After listening to a few words, he finally understood why Yang Tiexin remained silent and just drank one glass after another. It turned out that they had already talked about Wanyan Kang and his mother.

"Wanyan Yang Kang, that brat," Qiu Chuji said with anger when he mentioned the young prince during the conversation.

"I have taught him for a full nine years and six months. He has learned the basics of martial arts, but he has not listened to a word of my advice on how to conduct oneself. Now he has even done such heinous things as plotting against his uncle and imprisoning his own father!"

He spoke with righteous indignation, but did not think there was anything wrong with his teaching. Most of the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan were pedantic and echoed him.

"His behavior is indeed inappropriate," Gu Ping'an quickly took over the conversation as he saw Yang Tiexin's face becoming increasingly grim. "But he wasn't born like this. If anyone is to be hated, it's still Wanyan Honglie."

"Young Master Gu is right. Brother Yang, don't be anxious. We will find an opportunity in the next few days to rescue him and Ling Zheng, and then tell him about our life story." Ma Yu comforted him gently.

Unlike Qiu Chuji, he has a kind and gentle temperament, and there is no trace of hostility in his words.

Upon hearing this, Ke Zhenwu said proudly, "Master Ma is right. Now that we, the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan, have caught up with them, we naturally have to lend a hand!"

After hearing everyone's promise to help reunite his family of three, Yang Tiexin finally responded and stopped drinking.

"I will never forget your kindness."

Thinking about how his persistence of more than ten years finally paid off, he couldn't help but feel mixed with sadness and joy, and shed tears.

Mu Nianci hurried forward to comfort him, but Gu Ping'an was a little worried.

Most of the heroes in the martial arts world are reckless. If the six monsters and the three sons rely on their martial arts and directly attack the palace, not only will it be difficult to rescue the people, but it will also be difficult to escape safely.

If the couple ends up committing suicide together, wouldn’t all my efforts be in vain?
"I wonder if the senior has any good ideas?"

Ma Yu didn't put on an act and shook his head frankly: "The situation is unclear at the moment. Junior Brother Qiu and I plan to go to Prince Zhao's mansion tomorrow to find out the truth before making a long-term plan."

"Brother, what you said makes sense. There are many masters in the Zhao Palace, so we shouldn't act rashly."

The person who spoke was Wang Chuyi. He had suffered a great loss before and was now much more cautious.

"I have some ideas, but I still don't understand some key points. I hope you seniors can give me some advice." Gu Ping'an thought about it and was still worried that they would force their way in.

"Oh?" Ma Yu knew that he was quick-witted and didn't act like a senior. "Young Master Gu, please speak."

"I've observed the past few days in the palace and discovered that Wanyan Honglie values Aunt Yang very much. If we take her away directly, I'm afraid he will cause a big uproar in the city and send a large group of troops to hunt her down."

"That makes sense." Qiu Chuji saw with his own eyes that Wanyan Honglie rebuilt the old house to please Bao Xiruo, and even went to great lengths to transport the old things of the Yang family back from Lin'an, so he naturally agreed with his statement.

"In this case, we must not let them know that Aunt Yang has left."

How could someone be kidnapped without being discovered? This group of honest people couldn't figure it out.

Only two people in the room understood what Gu Ping'an meant. One of them was Huang Rong, but she just wanted to watch the show and didn't respond.

The other is Zhu Cong.

He closed the folding fan in his hand and clapped it on his palm: "Yes! Young Master Gu has a good plan!"

"What exactly is the plan?" Everyone was so curious that they couldn't help asking.

Zhu Cong looked at Gu Ping'an with a smile: "Young Master Gu, please listen to my guess and see if it is correct."

Gu Ping'an cooperated with him and stretched out his hand to make a "please" gesture.

"Escape by faking death!"
