Qin Gong

"It's really rare to get the king to agree to send troops to the border now, and it will be even more difficult for the king to decide to attack Qin."

As the carriage swayed slightly and listened to the noise and shouts of people coming and going outside the carriage, Tian Cong, who was wearing the official uniform of the Qi State, couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Once the Qin army came to the city, such a prosperous age would never be seen again.

Now the people in the city, all don't know that the Qin State is about to destroy the Wei State, they are still busy with their lives, the common people are working to earn money, the merchants are making money, and the rich and powerful are looking around with beauties in their arms.

"For the current plan, let the king send troops, it is better to let the king give orders first, repair the defenses of the cities, use weapons, bows and crossbows, hoard food and grass, and train the army!"

Tian Xian looked indifferent, and yawned. It seemed that the life of getting up early and going to court still made Tian Xian very uncomfortable. He wished to stay at home all day, or wander around among the nobles like in Chu State Between wine and meat, it is very pleasant.

"Prime Minister Hou Sheng has always been opposed to this matter. He has been admonishing the king in his ears. I don't know what he said. The king has always listened to Hou Sheng's words."

Tian Cong shook his head.

Tian Ding, who closed his eyes and rested his mind, heard the conversation between his two sons and remained silent. Among the three sons of Tian's family, one was in the army and the other two were in the court. None of them was as dandy and incompetent as the sons of other clans. To Tian Ding , already very satisfied.

Even the youngest Tian Xian, from childhood to adulthood, has always kept in mind what his late mother told him when he was young.

The two luckiest things in Tian Ding's life were that he was born in the Qi clan, and that he married the best wife in the world.

"Well, why are there cavalry pawns outside the mansion? How come they look like Brother Zhong's cronies."

While Tian Ding was thinking, he opened his eyes in confusion when he heard Tian Xian's words. As the carriage slowly stopped, Tian Cong opened the curtain of the carriage, and Tian Ding saw that Qi Qi was indeed waiting outside.

How is this going?

With doubts, Tian Ding got off the carriage after his two sons got off the carriage.

"The last general pays his respects to your lord!"

When they saw Tian Ding, General Qi Qi who was waiting outside the gate of the mansion hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Tian Ding respectfully.

"Not at the border, why did you return to Linzi?"

Tian Ding remembered that this general was a confidant of Zhongzi Tian Sui, so when he saw this person, he was sure that Zhongzi should have returned to his mansion.

Thinking of this, not only Tian Cong and Tian Xian were puzzled, but Tian Ding was also a little puzzled. King Qi finally agreed to send more than [-] troops to the border. He would leave without permission, let alone rely on Tian Fu's identity to do anything wrong.

Therefore, Tian Ding was also very curious about what happened to Tian Sui who hurried back to Linzi without authorization at this time.

"Report to my lord, the last general doesn't know, but before at the border, General Tian Sui personally went to pick up the descendants of the corpse, the corpse, and returned to Linzi today with the corpse!"

The general reported to Tian Ding.

"Corpse weir!"

"The grandson of the corpse, the corpse of the corpse!"

When Tian Cong and Tian Xian heard that Corpse Weir had arrived in Linzi, they looked at each other in surprise. It seemed that the rumors were true. Before Bai Yan ordered the water to flood the beams, the people in the city were indeed allowed to leave. Otherwise, Corpse Weir would not have been established in Bai Yan. After diverting water, we can still leave Daliang City.

"go!"

Seeing that their father Tian Ding was already walking back towards the mansion, the two brothers quickly followed.

In Tian Mansion.

In the study, Tian Sui and Xi Yan, who had been chatting and drinking tea, stood up quickly when they saw Tian Ding coming back.

"Father!"

"Shiyan, I have met Shibo!"

Tian Sui and Shiyan clasped their hands in a salute, looked at Tian Ding and nodded, and then Shiyan, Tian Cong and Tian Xian clasped their hands and saluted each other.

"Why don't you lead troops at the border? As a general, what kind of behavior would you have if you leave the camp without authorization? Even if Bo Yan goes to Qi, he can send the best troops to see him off."

Tian Ding frowned and looked at Tian Sui, and said softly.

In Tian Ding's eyes, it is too ridiculous for someone like Tian Sui to leave the army without permission, especially when the army is still at the border. Who can guarantee whether anything major will happen at the border? Will Qin general Bai Yan take advantage of it to destroy Wei? On this occasion, he directly attacked Qi State.

"Shibo, all of them are caused by Corpse Weir, so I hope it's not strange..."

"Father, my son returned to Linzi because he wanted to thoroughly investigate a matter with Brother Boyan. If he cannot investigate it himself, it will be difficult for him to sleep!"

Seeing Tian Ding's angry look, Shi Yan quickly cupped his hands to defend Shi Yan, but before he could finish speaking, Tian Ding spoke first.

"What's the matter?"

Hearing this, Tian Ding glanced at Shiyan, then frowned slightly, and looked at Tian Sui suspiciously.

It is necessary to find out what happened, and from what Tian Sui said, it seems that Xiyan came to Zi not to ask Qi to send reinforcements to save Wei.

Tian Cong and Tian Xian at the side also looked at Tian Sui one after another, not understanding what Tian Sui was doing, but they stubbornly wanted to go back to Linzi in person.

"Father, Bai Yan is from Qi!"

Tian Sui raised his hands to his father Tian Ding and said, in one sentence, neatly.

However, following Tian Sui's words, in an instant, Tian Ding, Tian Cong, and Tian Xian who were in the study shrank their pupils and stared straight.

"Qi people?"

Tian Cong was the first to speak in disbelief. He looked at his father and brother Tian Xian, both of whom were like him. Their eyes were full of astonishment. Then Tian Cong looked at Tian Sui and then at the silent corpse.

How could Bai Yan be from Qi?
Everyone knows that Bai Yan, the general of Qin, is the descendant of Bai Qi. The descendants of the Bai family were also the same at the beginning. They were trusted and respected by the tyrant Ying Zheng in the Qin State. Bai Yan even saved Ying Zheng with his life when Jing Ke assassinated Qin.

"Uncle! Brother Tian Cong, Brother Tian Xian! Bai Yan is from Qi, and the news has already spread in Daliang City and among the Qin army. Shiyan came to Qi State this time for this reason."

Corpse Yan spoke at this time. Seeing the shocked expressions on Tian Ding and Tian Xian's faces, he raised his hands and said, "This matter is absolutely true, there is absolutely no mistake!"

Corpse Yan's words fell to the ground.

Tian Sui was also on the side at this time and looked at his father again.

"Father, do you still remember little sister..."

Tian Sui gave a soft reminder, and then looked at his father, his younger brother Tian Xian.

Almost at the moment Tian Sui spoke, with Tian Xian's intelligence, he didn't react. Thinking of his little sister, Tian Xian's pupils froze and his eyes widened. He recalled that when Bai Yan saved her in the dense forest of Yingchuan County, Take a look at him.

No wonder……

No wonder Bai Yan would go to Yingchuan County to save him despite the dangerous journey for his little sister.

Now recalling what Bai Yan said at that time again, when he mentioned his little sister, he looked so unfamiliar at that time, no wonder he felt that the relationship between Bai Yan and his little sister Tian Feiyan was not ordinary at that time.

Qi people!Qi people!
Bai Yan is from Qi! ! !
"Where is little sister?"

Tian Xian took two steps back in a daze, goosebumps all over his body, Da Tian Xian had never been so shocked since he was a child, now Tian has no longer the cynicism of the past, replaced by eagerness.

"Smoke!"

Compared with Tian Xian, Tian Ding is not much better. The calm eyes in the past are full of astonishment and unbelievable at this moment.

The beloved daughter actually knew Bai Yan a long time ago, before Bai Yan became famous. As a father, he didn't know anything about it.

Listening to Zhongzi Tian Sui saying that Yan'er was not in the house and had ordered his servants to find Yan'er to return to the house, Tian Ding was in a daze and tried to calm down. The news that Bai Yan was from Qi really caught Tian Ding off guard and he didn't notice at all. Prepare……

wrong!

Bai Yan is from Qi!
Well, when I was in Xianyang! ! !
Tian Ding's pupils trembled, and he suddenly remembered that when he was in Xianyang, Qin State, he had visited Mao Jiao before he left. At that time, Mao Jiao asked him to find a group of people in the court hall of Qin State. The country needs this man.

This person is Bai Yan! ! !
The person Mao Jiao was talking about was none other than Bai Yan!
"Mao Jiao!"

Tian Ding was short of breath, at this moment Tian Ding couldn't figure out why Mao Jiao knew that Bai Yan was from Qi, and why he didn't tell him at the beginning.

Thinking of the Chu State's original plan, Bai Yan eventually led the troops to attack the main beams of the Wei State in a way that no one in the world could have imagined. Tian Ding was a little dizzy at the moment, full of regrets. He regretted going to Qin State in the first place, and in Luoyin, When he was in Xianyang, he didn't realize that Bai Yan who accompanied him was actually from Qi!
No wonder my daughter insisted on going to Qin!

No wonder Bai Yan cares so much about Yan'er!
It turned out that these two people already knew each other!And it was still in the state of Qi.

"Cong'er, order someone to prepare the carriage immediately, Bo Yan, tell me everything in full immediately! I will let you see King Qi later!"

Tian Ding tried hard to calm down the excitement in his heart. Before his beloved daughter Tian Feiyan returned home, Tian Ding wanted to know the complete story of the matter. Only when he understood everything could he go to see Mao Jiao immediately. At this moment, Tian Ding could no longer bear it. I immediately wanted to tell King Qi about the good news.

Just now in the palace, Tian Ding has already clearly felt that King Qi already has the intention to fight against Qin, but he has concerns. If he persuades Bai Yan to return to Qi, then King Qi will definitely increase his confidence. The prestige of Yanmen.

Not only the Wei state is saved, but even the Zhao land may have a chance to restore the state.

"Back to uncle, this is what happened..."

Shi Yan watched Tian Cong go to the gate, ordered the servants to prepare the carriage, bowed to Tian Ding gratefully, and then told Tian Ding everything that happened.

Tian Xian, who was walking around with a dazed expression on his face, heard the word "Zihuai" and immediately looked at Xiyan with a look of astonishment on his face.

"Zi Huai?"

In the eyes of Tian Ding, Tian Cong, Tian Sui, and Shiyan, Tian Xian told his father Tian Ding that during this period of time, there have been rumors of a person named Zihuai everywhere in Linzi City, and some people say that he is from Jucheng. , Some people also said that it was a gatekeeper in Jucheng, and there were no less than hundreds of rumors. Before that, Tian Xian was curious about who that Zi Huai was, why he had never heard of it, and why the Xun family was always rumored.

Looking at it now, Bai Yan must have sent a letter to Qi State at that time, and asked people to spread the news everywhere in Linzi City in order to confuse the public.

"It seems that Bai Yan didn't expect that, the previous flaw was to save..."

Tian Cong said, but then looked at his father with some worry: "If little sister..."

Tian Cong didn't say the next words, but Tian Sui and Tian Xian couldn't help but look at their father. This matter should be left to his father to deal with. They and the three brothers knew the temperament of the younger sister, so they probably wouldn't say it. Anyway, they would wait a minute. If you want to harm your little sister, then your father must do it.

Their third brother knew better than anyone how much his father doted on Yan'er, even if he got angry again, his father would coax Yan'er afterwards.

What's more, this time, where Bai Yan...

"By the way, Uncle Shi, when I was passing through Quyu City earlier, Elder Ling reminded Shiyan that Qi State had never heard of a Bai surname. With Bai Yan's ability, his background was extraordinary, and he hid himself. Using Bai's surname is to conceal people's eyes and ears, and we can use this connection to find Bai Yan's family background!"

Xi Yan thought of what Mr. Leng said and looked at Tian Ding to remind him.

Tian Ding frowned when he heard the words, Tian Sui and Tian Xian also showed thoughtfulness, the gentry of Qi State had a relationship with Pingyang Bai Clan, although this is a very important clue, but the scope is too big.

Among the crowd, Tian Cong suddenly thought of something, and shook his head slightly in a trance with a look of astonishment.

Tian Ding was full of doubts when he saw the appearance of the eldest son.

"Father, do you still remember that four years ago, father... had arranged for one person to go to Qin!"

Tian Cong reminded softly.

In Tian Cong's mind, he definitely remembered that there was once a clan that had a close relationship with the Pingyang Bai clan, and that clan was the Zou clan.

"Go to Qin State?"

Tian Ding usually has many things to do, especially after the Qin State destroyed one vassal state after another. However, when he heard the eldest son's words at this time, no matter how many things were on his mind and no matter how busy he was, he still remembered what he had done four years ago. Arrangements were made for a clan member to go to the Qin Kingdom, and coincidentally, that clan member was also going to the Bai family in Pingyang.

"You mean?"

Thinking of this, Tian Ding already realized what the eldest son was guessing. Although he knew that the clan's son had died, Tian Ding didn't mind sending someone to investigate when he had no clue at the moment.

"Cong'er, leave this matter to you, and order people to find everyone who has participated in or seen this matter, and check them all!"

Tian Ding opened his mouth and said.

Four years ago, when he learned that the clan's children were killed, Tian Ding had already guessed that it was Tian Xian and those who were sitting there. However, in order to stabilize the court, and because the Qin State had not yet attacked South Korea at that time, nor had it destroyed any of the vassal states, Tian Ding didn't take it to heart.

Now that I think about it, it seems that there were many negligence, but at that time, the cronies in the mansion did see it with their own eyes, and the son of the clan was indeed killed.

Could it be that someone pretended to be a child of that clan and went to Pingyang?

"Yes, Father!"

Tian Cong nodded when he heard his father Tian Ding's words.

After a while, Tian Feiyan hadn't returned to the mansion yet, but his servants had already informed that the carriage was ready. Seeing this, Tian Ding asked Tian Sui to follow Shiyan to the palace to meet King Qi, just to report the reason why he returned to Linzi.

During the conversation, Shiyan was about to leave, but seeing Tian Sui's hesitation, Shiyan also stopped.

The abnormal behavior of Tian Sui and Xi Yan instantly attracted the attention of Tian Ding and others.

"Su'er, are you still hiding something from your father?"

Tian Ding frowned and asked, while sighing, he didn't understand what else Zhong Zi couldn't say at this time.

Tian Xian hadn't completely calmed down from the trance until now. After all, thinking that Bai Yan who saved him back then was actually from Qi, Tian Xian wished to see Bai Yan again.

"Father, that Bai Yan is Tian Jin's disciple!"

Tian Sui hesitated, bowed his head and said.

When talking about this, Tian Sui was also full of tangles. After learning that Bai Yan was Xu Zixiao, Tian Sui was lying when he said he was not angry. After all, all the Qi Martial Arts he brought with him died in Zhongmu City. However, behind the anger, Tian Sui He knows better than anyone that he was able to leave Handan because Bai Yan allowed him to leave. Even this matter has never been spread.

"Impossible, Tian Jin..."

Tian Ding frowned, and when he was about to refute, he suddenly thought of what Zhongzi had said, and Bai Yan's firm tone in Luoyang.

"Bai Yan is Xu Zixiao?"

Tian Ding looked at Tian Sui blankly.

When Tian Cong and Tian Xian heard this, they also stared at all this with their mouths agape. How many identities does Bai Yan have?Why is another Xu Zixiao popping up now?

However, as Tian Ding's son, both Tian Cong and Tian Xian knew who Xu Zixiao was, and now they looked at the silent Tian Sui and Shiyan.

The two looked at their father one after another.

At this time, the two also realized that Bai Yan not only saved Tian Xian, but also saved Tian Sui in a disguised form. He also watched his father go to Xianyang with his own eyes. No words.

"Order someone to get rid of the master immediately!"

Tian Ding was also short of breath at the moment, but Tian Ding, who had seen strong winds and waves in his life, was the first to calm down, and his first words after calming down made Shiyan startled.

Shiyan wanted to say something more, but finally fell silent.

Unlike other masters, except for the master who was used, all the masters of the master's family were killed by the iron cavalry. Zhu Xun and the iron cavalry leader Bai Yan had a deep blood feud. If they knew that Bai Yan was Xu Zixiao, even if Bai Yan He is from Qi, I am afraid that Zhu Xun will die with Bai Yanyu.

But now, regardless of Bai Yan's identity as a member of Qi, the person they want to recruit, or whether Bai Yan has been hiding the original things for them, their family and the Tian family can't let the fact that Bai Yan is Xu Zixiao be exposed, let alone It might put Bai Yan in danger because of this matter.

Therefore...

Master Xun must, die!

"I'll arrange someone to do it!"

After Tian Xian came back to his senses, he did not have the cynicism of the past, and said with a serious face.

Tian Xian knew that Brother Zhong and his elder brother had friendship with Zhu Xun, and among the three brothers, he was the best to do this thing and the least concerned about it. What's more, Bai Yan had saved his life in the past, and now he had to get rid of Zhu Xun. , not only for the safety of the Tianfu and Shi family, but also to help Bai Yan get rid of a hidden disaster, so that he can feel more comfortable.

………………

In a small alley in Linzi City.

A dozen or so subordinates with swords in their hands quietly watched their surroundings, not letting go of any disturbance.

And in a small courtyard behind these servants, in front of a white-haired old woman, a long-haired beauty in full uniform gently placed her delicate white hands on the old woman's calloused face. On my hands, I didn't mind at all that the wrinkled skin of the old woman was not only sallow, but also had gray spots caused by age.

"Always let Yan'er come to visit me, an old woman!"

Grandma's eyes never left Ke Ren in front of her. When she looked at Tian Feiyan in those old eyes, she was so doting, which was very similar to Bai Yan's childhood.

A handful of old bones. In this world, apart from her two sons and one daughter, there are only two people who sincerely miss her as an old woman.

One was the little grandson who was crying and knelt at the gate of Linzi City, and the other was Tian Feiyan in front of him.

There is a small alley outside. No matter how good the weather is, it is still dark. It is a place where wealthy businessmen would not come to take their dogs, not to mention when it is humid, the unpleasant smell and messy things are everywhere. .

Tian Feiyan, who shouldn't come here more than those rich merchants and powerful officials, has never disliked this place, and she has never disliked her, an old woman who is sick from time to time and will be buried at any time. She was timid in the alley A little girl standing outside the carriage.

This is four years!

From a nervous, red-eyed, pitiful look full of bewilderment, she has learned to see a doctor later on, from a little girl who is half waist high, now she has become a charming woman with long hair fluttering and jade ornaments.

Even the grandmother lamented that her grandson was lucky enough to meet such a woman.

If one day this old woman is no longer alive and Yaner is here, this old woman will feel at ease!
"Grandma, Yan'er likes grandma!"

When Tian Feiyan heard her grandmother's words, she pursed her lips and bulged her cheeks, and stepped forward to lie on the old woman's lap, full of stickiness like an old woman acting like a spoiled child, blinking and blinking at her grandmother.

This amused the grandmother so much that she couldn't help laughing, and kept rubbing the girl's head, as if pampering her own granddaughter.

"That kid comes back, later! He dared to say no to Yan'er, Yan'er came to find grandma."

Grandma looked lovingly at Tian Feiyan in her arms.

In the past four years, because I have had company, my life has not been so boring. I don't have to be alone in this alley and yard during the day.

"Grandma, he won't bully Yan'er!"

Tian Feiyan closed her eyes, her pretty face was a little flushed, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised. Fortunately, in four years, she has gotten used to her grandmother's words.

When there were faint footsteps outside the courtyard, Tian Feiyan just opened his eyes.

"Grandma, Yan'er is going home! Wait until Yan'er comes back tomorrow!"

Tian Feiyan stood up, looked at his grandmother, and said softly.

Thinking of the "Zi Huai" that was raging a while ago, Tian Feiyan already knew that sooner or later, there would be a day when servants would rush to find her, either in the mansion or outside.

"Got to go?"

When the grandmother heard that Tian Feiyan was leaving, her eyes were filled with reluctance, and she got up slowly, with some difficulty.

Tian Feiyan still didn't ask her grandmother to send it off, but just told her to have a good rest and come back tomorrow.

Leave the courtyard.

When he came to the alley, Tian Feiyan's smile faded away, and looking at the servants stopped by his subordinates in the distance, Tian Feiyan walked slowly with the maid waiting outside the door.

"My lord, Mr. Tian Sui has already returned to the mansion, and he brought the guests with him, so I ask the lord to go back to the mansion as soon as possible!"

The servant reported out of breath.

After Tian Feiyan heard the words, he turned his head and looked at the small courtyard behind, thinking that he would return to the mansion later, and his father and the other two elder brothers might have already returned to the mansion.

Tian Feiyan sighed at this thought, full of helplessness.

If my father knew that the person he personally ordered to drive away was Bai Yan, I don't know how my father would feel!
