"If you want to take something, you must give it first..." Li Kuan repeated these eight words repeatedly. What does Pei Ji want to get from him?

"Never mind!" Li Kuan suddenly yelled, then he looked at Yu Shinan who was startled by his surprise and said: "Master Yu, no matter what Pei Ji wants from me, I have to meet him first. What’s the benefit he’s giving me, right?”

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu..." At this time, Li Kuan, in Yu Shinan's eyes, was the big fat fish that "Pei Taigong" was about to catch: "I have to remind you, don't underestimate Pei Ji. In this world, there are few people in the city. He who can outwit him in counsel.”

"Master Yu, it's not as exaggerated as you said..." Li Kuan was not forgiving, but he was slowly becoming alert in his heart.

"That's all I said!" Yu Shinan didn't bother to quarrel with his disciple: "You are smart, but after all, you are not experienced in the world. Many times, a peerless genius who lacks experience will be beaten by mediocre people with rich experience. Defeated by men.”

"That's not necessarily the case." Li Kuan felt that bickering with Master Yu couldn't be more interesting: "Maybe I am the one chosen by that day. I have no experience in the world but I am lucky?"

"Hmph," Yu Shinan snorted coldly. He didn't know where this Zhuzi got his confidence from: "How come you're so lucky? You're so lucky, why did you end up alone yesterday and was beaten by His Majesty by the Taiye Pond?"

"No, Master Yu, you also know about this?!" Li Kuan's eyes suddenly widened: "Could it be that you were there at that time? Hiding in the imperial garden? Master Yu, this is somewhat inappropriate for you, Wan I accidentally bumped into the concubine..." What a pity, he just finished his studies yesterday evening and was so bored that he went to the East Palace to get a fishing rod. He wanted to go fishing in Taiye Pond for fun, but he didn't know that he was just sitting back and waiting. Where is the fun of His Majesty Li Er?

"Shuzi! How can being a teacher be as dirty as you think? But speaking of it, Your Highness, King of Chu, is in the limelight now." Yu Shinan felt funny when he thought of this. Seeing that Li Kuan was still frowning, he couldn't help but said angrily: "Don't make blind guesses. I was not here at the time. It was your good brother, King Li Tai of Wei. He was guarding Jinshui Bridge when he went to court today. When he saw a minister, he wiped his tears and said that his poor second brother suffered an old crime last night and was killed by His Majesty. He was beaten so hard that he almost couldn't get out of bed. When he was applying the medicine, he was wiping tears of distress at the same time. Therefore, I kindly ask all of you to beg for mercy for His Majesty King Chu when he goes to court. After all, King Wei is a soft-spoken man and cannot persuade His Majesty to let him go. you."

"Ah!" Li Kuan held his head with both hands, his face seemed to be covered with a mask of pain: His stupid brother actually tried to reduce the hatred of the officials by helping his second brother "self-defile".

That's right, maybe this is the best solution Li Tai can think of.

"Don't be too busy crying and howling. I haven't finished speaking yet." Yu Shinan seemed to be very satisfied with his disciple's reaction and continued to finish the attack: "His Royal Highness the King of Shu was also there at the time. Of course, the King of Shu was not as willing to look down as the King of Wei. The child just stood aside and kept bowing and saluting, and then all the officials returned the salute. The scene... was unparalleled.

Your Highness, King of Chu, look at how much your two brothers have sacrificed themselves for you, the second brother. "At the end of Yu Shinan's words, the corners of his mouth began to rise unconsciously.

Even though he, his disciple, mostly acted out of character and without any rules, he had to say that as a brother, he was qualified. Perhaps this is the only place where he currently has an advantage over His Majesty.

"A famous name for a lifetime...My famous name for a lifetime..." His Royal Highness the King of Chu was amused and moved by the fact that his two younger brothers had behaved like this without telling him. At the moment, he could only complain a few words against his will to cover up some sourness in his heart. Emotions.

"Okay, Zhuzi, we should continue the class..." Seeing that his disciple was trying to cover it up, Yu Shinan was considerate and planned to pretend that nothing happened.

-------------------------------------

Of course, there is Prime Minister Pei Ji who is just as considerate as Yu Shinan, and who can also treat everything as nothing happened.

Although Pei Ji intended to show his kindness to Li Kuan, under the secret instructions of His Majesty Li Er, who seemed to have noticed something in advance, Li Kuan did not even have to go to court. He spent the whole day learning Sun Tzu's art of war from Yu Shinan, which left Pei Ji with nowhere to use his power. After all, no one can even meet each other. As a result, no matter what Xiang Pei plans to "give", His Highness the King of Chu will not be able to accept it.

Of course, at this critical juncture, the only thing that made Li Kuan feel relieved was that the grain that Wu Xing Qi Wang promised to sell to him was finally about to be delivered.

In the early morning of the next day, except for the 200,000 shi of the Cui family of Qinghe, the remaining four families each received 150,000 shi, for a total of 800,000 shi of food, and finally arrived in Chang'an.

The place of transaction was on the banks of the Weishui River.

This time, Li Kuan changed his previous idea and did not let the other party transport the grain to Yingzui Cliff in Yushan for trading. In order to make the matter watertight, he once again showed his "Single Master" when handing over to the other party. The rich man: he spent five boxes of glazed wares and directly bought the other party's cargo ship. The reason he gave was also very direct: "According to urgency, my master has set up his base camp in the south. This time we received an order, I need to transport this food to the south, so please forgive me."

Hundreds of pieces of glassware were placed in front of the stewards of the five surnames Qiwang. What else could be forgiven?

Li Kuan controlled the Shadow Assassins and directly replaced the boatman and waiter. After saying a simple hello to the stewards, he turned the boat around and headed south from the Weishui River.

Of course, this is just a look he made.

He gathered all the food in the cabin into the summoning space after the ship was far away from the shore.

However, he was worried that someone would secretly pay attention to his movements, so he planned to sail the ship to the sea and then scuttle it to ensure that everything was safe.

After finishing all this, Li Kuan planned to wait for a while, and when the locust plague broke out completely, he would once again approach people from the five surnames and Qi Wang to take the opportunity to buy food.

Anyway, he will still trade in colored glaze when the time comes. He has everything he needs. Of course, he is not afraid that others will hoard the goods and refuse to sell the grain. If they don't sell it, why can't he grab it?

Anyway, there is a famine in Guanzhong. With so many victims, it is normal for several groups of well-trained bandits to appear among the victims to grab some food...
