In the small ceramic cup, the tea color is quiet. The man rolled his hand up to his elbow, revealing a strong and capable arm. His complexion was slightly brown, which was not close to the clear tea. But when the man picked up the tea cup and sipped it to his lips, It looks like a natural fit, there is nothing wrong with it.

Even though his brows and eyes were stained with indifference, and his arrogance around everything made him look like a born king.

This momentum didn't change at all when he saw the people who came suddenly.

The visitor glanced at the teacup in the man's hand, his eyes wandered for a moment.

King Xiangyang didn't wear a fancy dress today. Except for special occasions, he always wore plain clothes in front of Gongsun Ji, just like he didn't care about tea and only drank tea in front of Gongsun Ji, an elegant and wise man.

The man remained calm, and took another sip of tea, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "It's half a stick late, I thought Mr. Gongsun didn't want to come to see the king."

Gongsun Ji came in a hurry, his clothes were not neatly arranged, and he looked quite lazy. He collected himself, bowed to the man and saluted: "I have seen the prince, I am late, please forgive me."

King Xiangyang raised his chin slightly and nodded inaudibly, like an inadvertent superfluous gesture while drinking tea, which didn't make him stand up. Gongsun Ji knew that Xiangyang might already be worried about him.

If it were someone else, I wouldn't dare to think about what would happen if the King of Xiangyang was angered, but Gongsun Ji is not very human, he is a smart man, and he is also the person who has been with the King of Xiangyang for the longest time. In this city of Xiangyang, it can be said that Gongsun Ji was the one who knew the King of Xiangyang best, so he didn't show the slightest fear. He just kept his waist down in a polite manner, with a sincere and respectful attitude.

I don't know how long it took, the cold tea was replaced by servants over and over again, and no one dared to look up at Gongsun Ji who was in a bowed posture. Gongsun Ji's calm expression showed no humiliation at all, as if he hadn't seen it at all. Those people only focused on maintaining their trembling figures.

This is a tea house bought by the King of Xiangyang for Gongsun Ji. They are now on the highest floor. Blocked by the low eaves, the insignificant bits that float in have also become the humor of literati and poets.

Half of the rain fell on King Xiangyang's clothes, and half of the rain drenched on the top of Gongsun Ji's head, moistening the few strands of hair on his forehead, and slipping down wetly. With Gongsun Ji's trembling body, he looked good. Poor, the King of Xiangyang finally opened his mouth and said lightly: "Forget it, take your seat."

That's all, not only did he not care about Gongsun Ji's tardiness, but it also canceled the fact that Gongsun Ji misreported the military situation and let Qin Ce go.

Looking at the thousands of people under the throne of Xiangyang, it is only Gongsun Ji who can make the king of Xiangyang so patient.

Gongsun Ji raised his head, thanked him respectfully, and sat down in front of King Xiangyang.It wasn't that Gongsun Ji was late on purpose, but when King Xiangyang sent someone to the mansion to inform him, it was already time for the invitation.

People often describe a person with a very deep city as unpredictable. The man in front of him is very deep in the city, but he is also really unpredictable. How he acts depends on his mood. If the time does not come immediately, the King of Xiangyang may not be in danger.

In the past, the king of Xiangyang fought against the former emperor Hengwu. The scene was thrilling, and it seemed that there was no winner or loser, but no one knew that the king of Xiangyang was the final winner. Emperor Hengwu was just dying, trying not to lose too badly.

Being broken through five gates in a row, the general in his hand was either captured or seriously injured. At that time, Emperor Hengwu was already desperate, and he drew his sword around his neck, waiting for the moment when King Xiangyang rushed into the tent, he committed suicide to show his loyalty. , Unexpectedly, he had waited for a long time, his arms were so sore, and the loyal staff finally turned from grief to insensitivity, and there was still a dead silence outside the tent.

In the end, Emperor Hengwu learned from the spies that the King of Xiangyang ordered to retreat at the last moment for no reason, and returned to Xiangyang with a large army of Xiangyang, until he returned to Xiangyang with a confused face and became emperor. The King of Xiangyang didn't express anything else, just sent a letter, chatted with no sincerity to congratulate, the disparity in force was in front of him, Emperor Hengwu couldn't move him, so he let him indulge.

The two sides maintained such a weird relationship, and they lived in peace until Emperor Hengwu died, and then troubled times came.

The rain and dew like powder covered the eyelashes of King Xiangyang. Without blinking, King Xiangyang called his servants to add hot tea and filled it up for Gongsun Ji. He pressed his fingertips on the table one by one: "I would like to give up a lot of money!" Coming here to soak in the rain, the things you literati like are always unbelievable."

Gongsun Ji thanked him, took a sip of tea, and finally warmed up his cold body: "If the prince doesn't like it, why don't you change the room downstairs."

"I'm too lazy to move." King Xiangyang raised his eyelids again, "From what I see, removing the roof above your head and sealing up all the air leaks on all sides, wouldn't you be able to have a good time?"

Gongsun Ji's face was as usual: "My lord has a good suggestion, and tomorrow I will send craftsmen to do it." The teahouse is located in the middle of the bustling area of ​​Xiangyang. It can be regarded as a special feature, but the good location that everyone is vying for at this level, after this time, I am afraid that no one will care about it.

King Xiangyang sneered, stopped talking about this topic, and went to look at the misty rain scene: "In your opinion, what kind of person is Qin Ce, Prince Gongxian?"

Turning his gaze to King Xiangyang's finger still tapping on the table, Gongsun Ji already had a conclusion in his mind, and his answer was rather flattering: "The person the prince cares about."

Squinting at Gongsun Ji's expression, the King of Xiangyang did not deny it, and smiled inexplicably: "Even I was almost fooled by his pretended appearance."

In layman's terms, anyone who can arouse the interest of the King of Xiangyang can occupy a place in his heart, and there are only two endings, either death or capture, which most people can't bear.

Hearing King Xiangyang's words, Gongsun Ji's eyes became serious, and he gradually calmed down: "Do you want me to go down and prepare?"

"Since you sent people to capture Youdu, aren't you already making preparations?" King Xiangyang swung his wine glass leisurely, "You didn't even tell me first that there are so many interesting people."

Gongsun Ji was surprised, and caught a word in the words of King Xiangyang: "Many?"

After Qin Ce was able to get down to Qingzhou without giving up his troops and horses, he paid special attention to the third prince of Qin who was rumored to want nothing. Interested in fighting Qin Ce, he used means to capture Youzhou and sounded the horn of Xiangyang, but he didn't expect that besides Qin Ce, there would be someone in the eyes of the King of Xiangyang.

At that time, the king of Xiangyang had just returned for less than a day, and the news of the refutation in front of the Chuhuai Qingdian had not yet spread. Gongsun Ji knew that Qin Ce had escaped, but he didn't know the specific process. rich?"

The interest in King Xiangyang's eyes suddenly became more intense, and he even filled another cup of tea: "Don't tell me that I haven't noticed yet, there is also Xie Fu." The feint also depends on the method of feint, which can persuade Li Wen , bluffed Gongsun Ji into believing that it was true, Xie Fu was indeed quite capable.

"The prince is not talking about him?" Gongsun Ji frowned, "Who could it be?"

"The man claimed to be surnamed Chu Wuming, but judging by the expressions of the guards around Qin Ce, this man is not an unknown person, at least not within Qin Ce's jurisdiction." King Xiangyang couldn't help pointing at the table again, "here I will leave it to you to inquire about it."

Gongsun Ji replied, "Your servant takes orders."

Coincidentally at this time, there was a sudden thunder from outside the sky, and the rain suddenly became heavier and fell down with a crackling sound. The passers-by on the road were startled and accelerated their pace.

The noise below shows the mortal scene; the silence at the top shows the majesty of the sky.

King Xiangyang raised his drooping face and looked straight at the dark clouds in the sky. The purple lightning flashed into his unfathomable eyes, and a smile spread far and wide.

"interesting."

"It really rained tonight." Qin Ce looked out the window with his hands behind his back, then turned to look at Chu Huaiqing with a smile, "As long as we can count the number of pedestrians tomorrow, we will know the depth of that person."

Chu Huaiqing smiled: "If you can get such a capable person, it will be like a god's help to Your Highness."

Among the three, Xie Fu was the only one who frowned, not seeming happy about it.

"Mr. Xie, what's wrong?" Qin Ce sat down, his tone was leisurely, "It's been like this since it started to rain, it looks like everyone owes you a hundred and eighty jars of wine."

Chu Huaiqing suddenly remembered the previous episode, and before Xie Fu spoke, she whispered in Xie Fu's ear: "Don't tell my lord what Lu Chuanfeng said earlier."

Xie Fu looked at him angrily, seeing Chu Huaiqing's earnest eyes, but his voice was also lowered: "What if he is really lucky, and you agree to the words of death?" He would rather this person had never been here, Chu Huai Qing also didn't have the appearance of Lao Shizi's death in vain.

Chu Huaiqing said in a soft voice: "People who are good at divination sometimes make mistakes, and he also told me that he accidentally made a mistake earlier."

"Don't you want to coax again..."

"What are the two military advisers of this king discussing in detail? Why don't you tell me and listen to this king."

Neither of them paid attention to Qin Ce who was gradually approaching, and they were surprised when they raised their eyes to see Qin Ce's expression of a bland smile. Smiling face: "It's not a big deal, it's just that the subordinate wants to change his name and ask Huai Qing for his opinion."

"Change name?"

Chu Huaiqing had already recovered at this moment, and Qin Ce sized up the other party without any trace, but he didn't see anything unusual, so he listened to the words half-believingly.

Lazily putting his hands into his sleeves, Xie Fu said: "Think of something nicer, and I can say it to the outside world in the future."

Qin Ce is not the most filial person, and he knows what is going on in Xie Fu's family. If Xie Fu wants to change, he will not object. After all, he has his backing, and Xie Fu's words of criticism will not reach Xie Fu's ears.

So Qin Ce asked meaningfully: "Do you need me to announce it for you?"

Xie Fu raised a big smile: "That is the best."
