In the martial arts world, he threatens Yin Susu from the start.

But now, it's hard to say how much sense of belonging she still has to the Huashan Sword Sect.

Therefore, there is no need to hide anything.

Gu Hanyuan smiled knowingly:

"Of course, I would be even happier if the young lady were willing to offer herself to me..."

An Xiaohui blushed deeply upon hearing this.

Surprisingly, he didn't seem very angry.

Perhaps it was because Gu Hanyuan's attitude towards her was too gentle.

An Xiaohui's fear dissipated considerably.

She gave Gu Hanyuan a reproachful look.

She said shyly:

"It's a beautiful thought."

Gu Hanyuan said regretfully:

"That's a real pity. The young lady is excellent in both appearance and character."

An Xiaohui was somewhat overwhelmed by Gu Hanyuan's praise.

The effect of praise from ordinary people is naturally different from that of praise from Gu Hanyuan.

The vast difference in status brought about a tremendous sense of identity.

Even An Xiaohui was somewhat unsettled.

When I looked at Gu Hanyuan's handsome face again...

I actually think he looks even better now.

This thought filled her with a strange sense of panic.

I dared not hesitate any longer.

He frankly stated:

"This batch of gold was transported by Prince Ning of the Ming Dynasty to Li Kexiu, the military commander of the Three Rivers Region. As for its purpose, I have no idea."

Upon hearing this, Gu Hanyuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light.

This time, we actually caught two big fish.

Because the world is different.

Not only are the terrains different.

Many people have different life experiences.

Li Kexiu was not promoted to Zhejiang Provincial Commander.

Instead, he was appointed Admiral of the Three Rivers.

Sanjiang is the name of this no-man's-land.

This is because this is where three rivers converge.

Because the Qing Dynasty was unable to control the Three Rivers region.

It's not only dangerous, but also offers little benefit.

This place became the most disliked place in the Qing Dynasty's officialdom.

Almost no Manchus were willing to take up a post here.

Although Kangxi intended to send his trusted confidants to Sanjiang.

However, he has not yet taken power.

We are powerless to change such a major personnel reshuffle.

Li Kexiu, a Han general who defected to the Qing Dynasty, was sent here amidst the various parties' excuses and shirking of responsibility.

Currently, the world is divided into many countries.

Li Kexiu's situation is even worse than in "The Book and the Sword".

It was difficult to gain the trust of the Qing Dynasty's high-ranking officials.

Prince Ning has always harbored ambitions to usurp the throne.

Li Kexiu naturally became one of his targets for recruitment.

Two thousand taels of gold is no small sum.

At least we have this money.

Li Kexiu would then be able to operate more effectively in the officialdom.

But this money isn't easy to get.

Given his current status.

He couldn't bear the consequences of taking the money and not doing the job.

Moreover, this also illustrates one thing.

The Huashan Sword Sect has already sided with Prince Ning.

No wonder they were unwilling to reveal the truth before.

Chapter 490: Jealous Wen Yi and Oblivious Wen Qingqing

Gu Hanyuan obtained the information he wanted.

He also did not intend to force An Xiaohui directly.

Gu Hanyuan's eyes were deep and unfathomable.

What he enjoys doing most is killing someone by destroying their spirit.

Therefore, I don't plan to waste my time on her for the time being.

Anyway, it'll be tomorrow.

An Xiaohui will still end up in his hands.

Therefore, Gu Hanyuan said gently:

"I see. Thank you for informing me, young lady. Please get some rest tonight, and I will take you home tomorrow."

An Xiaohui was initially worried that Gu Hanyuan might go back on his word.

Now I see that he really doesn't mean to force me.

I felt relieved immediately.

At the same time, she also felt somewhat guilty for doubting Gu Hanyuan's character.

He secretly praised in his heart:

"Young Master Gu has made such a great reputation, how could he be such a shameless person?"

Gu Hanyuan merely paused the process of accepting An Xiaohui.

However, this eased the hostile relationship between the two.

He also gained An Xiaohui's guilt.

31

Once a woman feels guilty...

The speed at which they give it away for free is astonishing.

At least An Xiaohui now has a much better impression of Gu Hanyuan.

The two seemed much more natural as they chatted.

She would also giggle from time to time.

She even proactively told Gu Hanyuan her name.

Gu Hanyuan praised upon hearing this:

"An Xiaohui. What a lovely name. A petite beauty who brings peace of mind, gentle and virtuous. Your senior brother must have exhausted all his martial arts talent to win Miss Xiaohui's favor."

An Xiaohui blushed upon hearing this.

She glared at him reproachfully.

He muttered to himself:

"How can you praise someone like that? Although my senior brother's aptitude for martial arts is a bit lacking, how can you say that's why he earned my favor? And 'Miss Xiaohui' and all that..."

An Xiaohui was particularly interested in the "Little Hui" that Gu Hanyuan mentioned.

After all, they were too close.

But I was too embarrassed to argue back.
