Chapter 497
"General?"
Sun Tiancheng was stunned, then frowned.
"Not long ago, the general came back with the marshal and arranged the internal affairs of the White Tiger Army, and then he never appeared again."
"Never appeared again?"
Gu Ming was stunned, and keenly noticed the unusualness of this matter.
Long Yuan's secrecy had already made him a little suspicious.
Now combined with Sun Tiancheng's words, he was more suspicious whether General Baihu had an accident.
But it shouldn't be?
The last time he went to the Kingdom of God for support, it was Long Yuan who led the team, and General Baihu and General Qilin followed.
In the Kingdom of God, it is said that there was no battle, and the Lord of Machinery disappeared.
And then, Long Yuan brought the two back temporarily, how come General Baihu had a problem during this process?
Gu Ming was a little puzzled, wondering if he had missed some key information.
Hmm...
The five armies of the ancient country, Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise, plus the last one, Qilin.
Respectively, the warriors are mainly composed of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth.
In fact, the five armies of the ancient country have been refined to an incredible degree.
The White Tiger Army is all gold, the Azure Dragon Army is all wood, and the Suzaku Army is fire...
According to Gu Ming's current perspective, if a legion is full of warriors of the same profession, it is not necessarily a good thing.
Only by combining different professions can you surprise on the battlefield and be more comprehensive.
If all the warriors are of the same profession, the bias is too serious.
But why are the five armies of the ancient country like this?
Gu Ming couldn't figure this out, but when he followed Sun Tiancheng to visit the White Tiger Army, he had an idea about another thing.
Although the five armies of the ancient country are all special, the White Tiger Army must be the most special one among them.
The White Tiger Army is full of gold, but the gold talents are mixed, so the royal family of the ancient country has mechanically transformed most of them.
Even the White Tiger General Shen Guoguo had undergone mechanical transformation.
If we look at it from this point of view, it is more reasonable that only the White Tiger General was a little abnormal after returning from the Kingdom of God.
After all, going to the Kingdom of God involves the Lord of Machinery, and the White Tiger General has undergone mechanical transformation, so he is more or less considered a mechanically modified person.
So among them...
Gu Ming, with a lot of thoughts in his mind, finally returned to the Marshal's Mansion after visiting the White Tiger Army with Sun Tiancheng.
However, before he entered the door, he saw the man in white walking in front of him.
The man in white had a handsome face. Although he was middle-aged, he gave people a very elegant atmosphere.
Gu Ming put away his thoughts, raised his eyebrows and looked at the other party.
"Why is Chief Wen here?"
The person who came was Wen Ruqing, the deputy chief of the Night Watch, who had a good relationship with Gu Ming.
Whether it was Gu Xin's mentor or his own promotion to general in the past, Wen Ruqing had contributed.
Wen Ruqing smiled at Gu Ming, without too much politeness, and got down to business.
"General Gu, this time I'm not looking for you, but the chief wants to see you."
"Chief of the Night Watchmen?"
Gu Ming was stunned, and Wen Ruqing whispered beside him.
"I never told you before that our Night Watchmen are under the command of the Five Emperors Palace and are directly led by Emperor Tang Qian."
"So, the Fifth Emperor Tang Qian is the Chief of the Night Watchmen."
"These two people are actually the same person?"
Wen Ruqing's words surprised Gu Ming.
Didn't the royal family not hold power?
How come the Fifth Emperor Tang Qian directly served as the Chief of the Night Watchmen?
As if he saw his thoughts, Wen Ruqing smiled and spoke.
"On the surface, the two are not the same person, but in fact, the Chief and His Highness are the same person."
Gu Ming nodded, and he didn't want to say anything more about the chaotic high-level officials of the ancient country.
Soon, he followed Wen Ruqing to the Night Watchman headquarters in the inner city.
Compared with the grandeur of the five buildings of the Marshal's Mansion, the Night Watchman seemed to be more low-key.
But this low-key is only relative.
The building where the Night Watchman is located is the tallest building in Kyoto.
It is a building like a sharp sword, piercing straight into the clouds of the sky, up to a thousand meters high.
Under the leadership of Wen Ruqing, the two took the high-speed elevator and soon arrived at the top floor.
Wen Ruqing sent them here and stopped.
He smiled at Gu Ming and pointed to an office in front.
"The chief is waiting for you inside, I won't go with you."
Gu Ming nodded. This is the capital, and with Wen Ruqing's endorsement, he is not worried that the other party will do something bad to him.
He walked over and soon saw the chief of the Night Watchman, Tang Qian, who is also the fifth emperor, in the office.
Tang Qian's office chair is facing the door, and Gu Ming saw him the first time he walked in.
Tang Qian was wearing a black suit, and his temperament was very different.
Gu Mingtaieyes, looking at the other person's face.
However, with his eyesight, he could not see through the mist on Tang Qian's face at this time.
The other person's face was illusory, Gu Ming seemed to have seen his face clearly, but after a trance, he found that he saw nothing.
While Gu Ming was looking at the other person, Tang Qian was also looking at him.
The illusory face seemed to be smiling, but it seemed not to be smiling.
Until he made a "hehe" sound, Gu Ming was sure that he was really laughing.
Some weird feelings filled his heart, Gu Ming forced it down, and looked at the other person calmly.
Tang Qian looked at Gu Ming, and saw that he was no longer passively affected by his illusion soon, and smiled again.
"Not bad."
He slowly opened his mouth to evaluate, with satisfaction in his voice.
"Your Highness, why do you want to see me?"
Facing a ninth-level strongman, or a ninth-level strongman he was not familiar with, Gu Ming was still a little wary in his heart.
Seeing Gu Ming's vigilance, Tang Qian stopped laughing and got straight to the point.
"Then I won't exchange pleasantries with you, let's get straight to business."
"Bai Ye has been exposed, how do you plan to investigate Song Gui next?"
This statement revealed a lot of information, and Gu Ming was shocked, but he quickly understood.
"Secretary Wang, is it the night watchman's man?"
The illusory face nodded.
"I didn't expect Tang Gui to be so cautious and directly sent someone to kill him."
"Tang Gui?"
This matter also involves the Three Emperors?
Gu Ming was shocked and felt that the matter was more difficult.
At the same time, he was also glad for his previous decision.
If the evidence was exposed, Song Gui would be dealt with at most, but Tang Gui, a deeper threat, could not be shaken at all.
As his thoughts turned, Gu Ming soon realized the purpose of Tang Qian's visit to him.
"Your Highness, do you want to join forces with me to investigate Song Gui?"
Tang Qian nodded slowly: "There are also struggles within the royal family, I believe you can also think of it."
"My target is naturally Tang Gui, and your target is Song Gui."
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend, how about you join forces with me?"
Gu Ming carefully considered it and found that he had no reason to refuse.
Anyway, even if they joined forces, he could not exchange what he had with the other party.
At best, it would be an additional channel for obtaining intelligence.
Whether there is a date or not, just give it a try.
"Your Highness invited me, how can I not appreciate it?"
Listening to Gu Ming's answer, laughter came out again under his illusory face.
Soon, the laughter stopped, and Tang Qian's voice came.
"Then as an ally, I will provide you with some information first."
"Shen Guoguo is dead."
