Wu Laoqi came to a side hall, and the King of Nanzhao was very delicious and entertained himself. The table was full of big fish, meat and wine. Seeing his two subordinates eating happily, he didn't have much appetite.

Looking back, I thought about whether there was something wrong with what I said before.

"Boss, the reception of the King of Nanzhao is so generous." Wu Laoqi's subordinates said with a smile while eating.

"Eat less." Wu Laoqi whispered.

He stayed in the side hall for a whole day until he couldn't sleep late at night and walked out of the side hall and walked around the Nanzhao Palace. There were not many soldiers guarding him, and the soldiers did not react too much when they saw him walking around so casually.

I thought to myself that if I had a thousand troops in my hands, I might be able to sneak into the royal city and directly take down the entire Nanzhao Palace. Now, the defense of the Nanzhao palace is indeed very relaxed.

When I came to a palace, I saw many people coming in and out here. When I got closer, I could hear the conversation inside, such as the King of Nanzhao and their ministers were discussing something.

It was so late that Nanzhao could barely understand the words, but it was already midnight. At this time, the King of Nanzhao and his ministers were discussing something, lying beside the wall and eavesdropping quietly. As he listened to the words, the King of Nanzhao heard Gu Qing's name and the word "Grimage". The other words were not very true. Could it be that the royal family of Nanzhao was going to marry Gu Qing, and he thought to himself that Gu Qing's three sons had no daughters.

It is really a new thing for the Nanzhao King to marry his daughter to a marquis of the Tang Dynasty. It is reasonable to say that the Nanzhao royal family married the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Marrying a marquis like Gu Qing? And he was just a county marquis. He was scheming in his mind that with Gu Qing's current status, it would be a good thing if many small countries around the Tang Dynasty could win over Gu Qing. At least now Gu Qing almost controlled the financial power of the entire Central Plains.

It is reasonable to be rich to rival a country, and the relationship between Gu Qing and the royal family is to curry favor with Gu Qing. Even if Gu Qing is no longer in power in the future, he will only marry a woman. For them, it is more beneficial than disadvantages to be able to marry Gu family.

Just as he was eavesdropping, a soldier came up and held him off, cursing as if questioning.

Wu Laoqi struggled and responded: "Let me go!"

The conversation in the hall stopped, and the King of Nanzhao asked the reason and asked Wu Laoqi to enter the hall.

"I have met King Nanzhao." Wu Laoqi stepped forward and said, "I accidentally passed by and heard some words. I'm sorry to be rude."

"It's not a problem." The King of Nanzhao responded in Guanzhong dialect: "Actually, we will talk about it again, it's not shameful. Now I have a sister who is about to marry Gu Qing at the age of sixteen to marry the Gu family! I don't know what you think."

Wu Laoqi thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. Gu Qing attaches great importance to his family. After following Gu Qing for many years, he has known that he is a man from the Gu family. He is rich and rich, but the two wives next to him are Wu Mei. Wu Mei and Gu Qing grew up together in Chang'an. There is no need to say much about each other. There is also the current Gaoyang Princess, although the complexity between the royal family and the Gu family is."

When he said this, Wu Laoqi whispered: "But at that time, Gu Qing had almost broken up with the emperor of our Tang Dynasty for this Princess Gaoyang. Both sides were almost at a strife. In order for Princess Gaoyang to be able to turn against the royal family, Gu Qing finally gave in and Princess Gaoyang also married Gu Qing."

Here, Wu Laoqi deliberately mentioned the incident that year, so that the King of Nanzhao knew that Gu Qing even had to look at the Gu family's expression in the Central Plains. Anyway, this is a well-known thing in Chang'an. Even if it is verified, he could not find out what was wrong with his own words.

Wu Laoqi continued to say to the King of Nanzhao: "Gu Qing values ​​friendship and friendship! He cares about family affection and does not like imperial power. Even if he is less than one person and more than ten thousand people, he has no mind about imperial power. The Gu family and the royal family have almost reached an equal point."

Wu Laoqi exaggerated a little, hoping that the pressure from the Nanzhao King could be put on.

"After you said this, I still don't know whether I should marry the Gu family."

After hearing the words of the King of Nanzhao, Wu Laoqi replied: "I think the royal family of Nanzhao should not marry the Gu family."

"Why?" King Nanzhao's face turned gloomy.

"I'm not hiding the King of Nanzhao." Wu Laoqi said, "I said before that Gu Qing is a person who values ​​friendship and is rich enough to rival a country, but he has no wives and concubines. Both wives around Gu Qing have had many years of feelings for Gu Qing. If the King of Nanzhao gave Gu Qing a woman, it would only make Gu Qing disgust and would not get Gu Qing's good intentions. If the King of Nanzhao wanted to marry here and let Nanzhao get benefits from it, I would advise the King of Nanzhao not to do this and would be reversed."

After hearing these, the Nanzhao King calmed down.

Seeing that the temperature was almost done, Wu Laoqi continued, "If the King of Nanzhao wants to get benefits from Gu Qing's business, I can give the King of Nanzhao a clear path."

"Please speak." Facing Wu Laoqi, King Nanzhao, also began to become serious.

Wu Laoqi said in a righteous voice: "Now the Central Plains are conducting maritime trade, and the harvest is quite good. Now the maritime trade is hosted by King Li Zhi of Jin. However, everyone in Chang'an knows that the King of Jin was raised by Gu Qing. Many times, the King of Jin is doing things according to Gu Qing's idea. This time, the Tang Dynasty must need the support of Nanzhao during the opening of the South China Sea."

"I know that I have also agreed to your Central Plains Sea Trade Department and His Majesty of the Central Plains to help the Tang Dynasty in the South China Sea."

"That's good." Wu Laoqi said again: "Gu Qing is a businessman. He always cares about his own gains and gains in his work. If the King of Nanzhao wants to get benefits from it, he can do more in the maritime trade and make Gu Qing feel the sincerity of Nanzhao. At that time, he will send an envoy to contact Gu Qing, and maybe he can go to Nanzhao to get benefits, with gains and losses. No matter how much Nanzhao put in, as long as Gu Qing agrees, Nanzhao can get the benefits he deserves."

"The so-called marriage is just a plan for the poor. I think Gu Qing doesn't like marriage. When the countries asked to marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty, they were overthrown by Gu Qing alone. I also asked the King of Nanzhao Sansi."

From this conversation, the King of Nanzhao began to think about Wu Laoqi, perhaps he needed such a person to help him out at all times, and needed a familiar Gu Qing person to give advice to him. Nanzhao could not find such a person.
