"You! What did you say!?"

Da Si gasped for air, then sneered again and said, "Death is imminent! Can you still be rampant?!"

He said, then turned his head and said: "Since today's rulers don't care about the people and waste money on the people, then we can only recommend the worthy!"

Seeing Da Sikong talking, there was a wave in the crowd of the people, and someone came out. The man was dressed in ordinary clothes and seemed to want to blend in with the people. He walked out slowly, with a smug look on his face.

Wu Jiu didn't know this person. After all, Wu Jiu didn't have the memory of Young Master Jiu. When that person came out, Qi Hou laughed and said, "Who is Gu Dang?"

Qihou seemed to recognize the man, and the man smiled and said, "Good third uncle, do you still recognize your nephew?"

As soon as his words came out, everyone was in an uproar. Gao Xi and Guo Yizhong's eyes widened in shock. Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. It turned out that there were very few people who didn't recognize this person.

This man is the son of Gongsun Wuzhi!

That is, the descendants of Gongsun Wuzhi that Da Sikong said.

Back then, Gongsun Wuzhi was loved by Duke Xi of Qi. His food, clothing, housing and transportation were all treated according to the etiquette of the prince. Not only that, Gongsun Wuzhi's son was also loved by Duke Xi of Qi. His son has been domineering since he was very young.

Later, when Zhu'er succeeded to the throne, Gongsun Wuzhi was very unconvinced. A few years later, while Zhu'er was hunting, he sent someone to kill Zhu'er and ascended the throne himself.

However, although Gongsun Wuzhi succeeded to the throne, others did not accept Gongsun Wuzhi at all, even Gao Xi and Guo Yizhong, the two supervisors, were not convinced, because these two supervisors did not say anything, so the emperor did not formally confer Gongsun Wuzhi as Qi The king of the country.

In this way, Gongsun Wuzhi was not recognized by Qi State, nor was he recognized by the emperor, so in the eyes of Qi State and other countries, Gongsun Wuzhi was just a usurper, not a ruler.

Yonglin killed Gongsun Wuzhi, and Gao Xi and Guo Yizhong cooperated to eliminate the rebels in Linzi City. Although Gongsun Wuzhi died, his son and some rebels got the news, and they fled Qi State overnight and went to Lu country went.

Logically speaking, the state of Lu is currently in charge of the country's mother, Wen Jiang, and Gongsun Wuzhi had Wen Jiang's lover brother Zhu'er killed. Wen Jiang should not take in Gongsun Wuzhi's descendants, but Wen Jiang also knows that Qi's People are not ashamed of themselves, if they take in Gongsun Wuzhi's descendants, there may still be a chance to turn things around, so in this way, the State of Lu actually took in Gongsun Wuzhi's son, and those rebels.

At that time, Qi State was in civil strife and there was no monarch, so Gao Xi and Guo Yizhong didn't have the heart to go all the way to Lu State to arrest people, so they put their minds on the matter of establishing a monarch. After careful consideration, they decided to establish the young son Xiaobai For the king.

That's how Gongsun Wuzhi's son planted the seeds of disaster in the state of Lu.

And the person who informed Gongsun Wuzhi's son to escape was none other than Da Sikong!

When Da Sikong assisted Gongsun Wuzhi, he was especially favored. After all, Da Sikong was in construction, and Gongsun Wuzhi loved hunting. As soon as he came to power, he wanted to build an unprecedented hunting ground, so Da Sikong was favored.

Gongsun Wuzhi rewarded Da Sikong with many things, so when Gongsun Wuzhi fell, Da Sikong notified his son and let Gongsun Wuzhi's descendants escape overnight.

Now Da Sikong is treated coldly in Qi State. In this era when the bench was not even invented, he sat on the bench several times and felt angry.

Da Sikong used to think that it was impossible for Marquis Qi to do anything to him. After all, he was a veteran minister, but looking at it now, that was not the case at all. The anxious Da Sikong thought of the descendants of Gongsun Wuzhi who was far away in Lu State.

If Gongsun Wuzhi's son can return to the court as a teacher, then he will have a chance, maybe he can become a hero, and become the Prime Minister of the country in one fell swoop!

However, although he wanted to rebel, rebellion required conditions. Da Sikong was sitting on the bench, and the power in his hands was nothing more than that. Now it was all in Bao Shuya's hands, and there was no way to help others rebel.

Da Sikong pondered for a long time, and finally let him think of a way...

The ignorant descendant of Gongsun came over, looked at the uproarious ministers, laughed and said, "What? Are you surprised now? My son, I am back!"

Wu Jiu looked at the man and said, "What kind of son are you?"

Gongsun's ignorant descendants hated others to say that he was not a son, because if he was not a son, he would be a usurper, and he couldn't stand up, so he immediately said: "I am a son! My father is the king of Qi, and you usurpers, I just suffered a tragic death, and now I want to avenge my father!"

He said, turning his head to look at those ministers, and said: "My lord is kind, you people who have been blinded by the stupid king, if you have a reason, you can stand up, and my lord will definitely let the past go. Don't blame me!"

When he said this, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. Many people's eyes lost their composure and shook violently.

For a while, no one dared to speak. After all, it was a big deal, but the situation was not very good at this time. The descendants of Gongsun Wuzhi and the people of Da Sikong actually surrounded all the officials inside. There were fewer people. But it's better than they don't have soldiers and horses.

During the sacrifice, the soldiers and horses were on the periphery. Now they are surrounded by groups, and there is no way to call for soldiers and horses to save them. In this way, although there are only about fifty people, they all hold weapons in their hands, which is quite impressive of.

Many ministers hesitated again and again, and finally one person walked out of the crowd and said quickly: "Honor the new king! The new king is wise!"

When he said this, everyone looked surprised, but Gongsun Wuzhi laughed loudly and said, "Very well, you are a sensible person, and the world should be ruled by the capable. It seems that you are very capable. In this way, Gu will seal you as Da Situ, how about it?"

When the minister heard this, he was overjoyed. He was originally a low-level doctor, not even a middle-level doctor, but suddenly he became the leader of the three senior officials. "The new ruler is wise! The new ruler is wise!!"

Because of Gongsun Wuzhi's "canonization", some greedy scholar-bureaucrats, as well as the gangsters prepared by Da Sikong, began to confuse people's hearts, and they all stood up to respond and prepared to support the new king.

Seeing that more and more people stood up and surrendered to Gongsun Wuzhi's descendants and Da Sikong, Qihou's eyes were only hazy, but he didn't have any anxious look, and he was still calm.

Gao Xi and Guo Yi Zhong's blushes blushed and their necks were thick. They are also old ministers. Seeing a group of old Qi people surrender to Gongsun's ignorant descendants, their faces would be burned. I am really ashamed of them. On the other hand, those new sects, The people of old Qi couldn't stand the temptation so much.

Gao Xi scolded angrily: "Traitor! You are here to deceive people, so you are not afraid of being punished by heaven!"

Da Sikong laughed loudly and said, "What? Scored by heaven!? Now the new king is heaven!"

Wu Jiu glanced at the group of ministers who stood up, and said with a smile, "What a big tone."

The descendant of Gongsun Wuzhi looked at Wu Jiu, his eyes changed, and he smiled and said, "Second Uncle, my nephew has changed a lot in these years in Lu State? Is your mouth getting sharper and sharper? Nephew I heard that it was very cool for you to be raped by the third uncle? Why, why doesn’t my nephew know that you still have such a habit? Well, if the third uncle also surrenders, the nephew will reluctantly do it, and also stubborn you, to make you happy cool, how is it?"

Upon hearing this, Marquis Qi almost burst into flames, and took a step forward, but was immediately stopped by Wu Jiao.

The ignorant descendant of Gongsun thought it was ugly, and he looked like an arrogant and mean villain. When Wu Jiao stopped Qihou, he thought it was Wu Jiao who was afraid, so he laughed loudly, laughing like whoever was in trouble Same.

Wu Jiu also smiled, but his smile was very gentle. He glanced at the people who came out, then fixed his eyes on Da Sikong, and said with a smile: "Da Sikong, if I remember correctly, you are going to do it in the next month. Birthday banquet, isn't it?"

Da Sikong didn't know why, at this moment, Wu Jiu suddenly wanted to chat with him?He looked at Wu Jiu suspiciously, but didn't speak.

Wu Jiu said with a smile: "Jiao received a report from the city guard this month. It was a trivial matter, and it was not worth anything, but because your famous name, Da Sikong, was included in the report, Jiu had to pay attention to it. It is written in this document that Da Sikong transported a lot of melons, fruits and vegetables, as well as silk cloth, into Linzi City because of his [-]th birthday, and there were dozens of carts back and forth."

At that time, the city guard presented it to Wu Jiu. Wu Jiu didn't pay much attention to it, but after thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong. The fresh-keeping technology in this era is very poor. Melons, fruits and vegetables are perishable food, although it is already winter , and rich people can also use ice cream, but it is still easy to rot.

The things for the birthday banquet are prepared a month in advance, the silk cloth is still reasonable, and the fruits and vegetables are not all rotten by then?

The more Wu Jiu thought about it, the more he felt that it was unreasonable, so he asked someone to investigate secretly, and after this investigation, he found that what Da Sikong was actually transporting was not melons, fruits, vegetables and silk cloth at all, but weapons!

Da Sikong secretly transported a batch of weapons into the city, and he absolutely had no peace of mind. At this time, Qi State had taken over the rights of salt and iron tea to the state, so weapons could not be cast or transported casually, they had to be handled by the state, Da Sikong Sikong is not related to Sima in terms of hydraulic construction, so he will not encounter the problem of weapons, but now he is secretly transporting weapons into Linzi City, Wu Jiu knew that there must be something wrong with him.

It wasn't just Wu Jiu who knew there was something wrong with him. At this time, Shang Shang came to see him again, saying that there seemed to be something wrong with the place where the sacrifices and canals were going to be built on the outskirts of the city.

Because the canal will start construction immediately after the sacrifice, so Shang Shang has been running more diligently these days, stepping on the spots, and finally checking to see if there are any temporary changes that need to be made.

When I went for a run a few days ago, I suddenly found something wrong. Many people were wandering around. There is water nearby. It is common sense for people to come to carry water. While carrying water, it's just for show, and it doesn't know how to carry water at all, pick half and sprinkle half.

Tong Shang quickly realized that these people were not carrying water at all, they were here for the same purpose as his own, they also came to step on some water.

So Shang Shang came to observe for a few more days, every day was the same, and there were more and more people, there were new faces every day, all of them were tall, big and thick, if anyone had such a tall man in his family, he would definitely not Instead of farming at home, he went to join the army. After all, Qi's military service is very generous.

Shang Shang felt that something was wrong, so he went to find Wu Jiao, and Wu Jiao also asked people to check secretly. Sure enough, he saw those who stepped on the spot, and after careful investigation, he found a big problem.

Those people are not other people, they are Gongsun Wuzhi's rebels who sneaked back from the state of Lu!

Although Da Sikong rebelled, but because he had nothing to do with Sima Sili, he didn't even have a prisoner and no troops, so he thought of cooperating with Gongsun Wuzhi's descendants. He and the weapons were secretly transported into Linzi City, and then stepped on the riverside in many ways, preparing to ambush the Marquis of Qi.

When Wu Jiu said these things slowly, everyone looked at each other in dismay. Gao Xi and Guo Yizhong's expressions gradually eased when they heard this, while Da Sikong's expressions gradually became stiff when he heard it, because Wu Jiu had actually seen through his plot Yes, and you can see it clearly.

if……

If he had seen through his plot, why was he still ambushed now?

Da Sikong thought about this, and immediately said forcefully: "Stop bluffing! If there is no one who is more sensible, the new king will make a move!"

Qi Hou laughed at this time, and said quietly: "You are right in one sentence."

He said, looking at the descendants of Gongsun Wuzhi, the descendants of Gongsun Wuzhi were stunned for a moment, not knowing what Qihou said.

I heard Qi Hou sneer and said: "The capable ones live there."

Qihou's voice was very gloomy, hoarse and cold, and he laughed "hehe", like a file, and the hearts of those surrendered Qing doctors were numb, and an ominous premonition struck heart.

Qi Hou clapped his hands and said, "I've seen enough excitement, what are you waiting for?"

As soon as his words fell, Wu Jiu said, "Come here!"

As soon as Wu Jiu gave the order, he heard "Wow!", and the rebels who were armed with weapons all switched their weapons, "Huh!" The descendants surrounded them.

At the same time, Zhanxiong walked out of the crowd with a smile on his face, and kicked that Gongsun ignorant descendant's knee. His eyes were full of surprise, and he said, "How...how could it be! Impossible!! These are...all of my people!!"

Da Sikong also turned pale with fright, and shouted: "What are you doing!? What are you doing! Are you going to rebel!? Go catch that tyrant! Go catch him!"

Wu Jiu was smiling at this time, with a friendly face, and said, "Da Sikong, are you confused? You are the rebels, and your soldiers only know the current affairs and understand things. Are you only allowed to recruit people to surrender? Your Majesty is not allowed to recruit people to surrender? Speaking of which, you recruit people to surrender, that is, you just touch your mouth and make empty promises, but Your Majesty is different, gold and silver, fame and fortune, isn't it much easier?"

The faces of Da Sikong and Gongsun Wuzhi's descendants suddenly turned pale. It was not only them who were pale, but also those high officials who had just surrendered. All of them didn't know that there was such a huge change. Before the new king took the throne, he became a prisoner. !

Da Sikong said tremblingly: "No...impossible...this...this..."

Wu Jiu smiled and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty is wise, he has seen through your tricks a long time ago, but he just wanted to test the court's civil and military officials, who is loyal and who has ulterior motives. I really want to thank Da Sikong for his hard work... Oh no, it's not Da Sikong, but the former... Da Sikong."

When Da Sikong heard it, he collapsed on the ground with a "gudong" all over his body, his old face turned pale, and then he kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please spare me! The villain... the villain is threatened! It's the traitor!" Threatening the villain! The villain just deliberately greeted him just now, and wanted to find a chance to be loyal, my lord!"

Qi Hou smiled coldly and said, "Be loyal? Well, you go underground and be loyal to your ancestor."

Qihou just said something lightly, then waved his hand, Zhanxiong quickly picked up Da Sikong who was kowtowing constantly on the ground, and said with a smile: "You old man, you are too shameless, you have nothing to be proud of in terms of achievements. It’s a good point, but when it comes to fluff, you are a good hand.”

Zhanxiong said, and then said: "Let's go quickly, don't talk to disgusting people here."

The gang of surrendered Qing doctors came and knelt down, begging one by one.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

"Your Majesty, spare your life, and the villain is only trying to save the momentary crippled body. He is flattering and flattering, so that he can plan for future plans!"

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, please spare me!"

Qihou didn't even look at them begging for mercy, just smiled, and said to everyone: "You have already seen what happened today. There are good and bad officials in my state of Qi. You can't generalize them. Now you have taken refuge in the traitor. , the most unforgivable, all... Dabi."

As soon as his words fell, those high officials who surrendered their loyalty suddenly wailed together, kneeling down and begging for mercy, saying: "Spare me! Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please spare me!!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, although these defectors were indeed hateful, but if so many high officials were executed at once, it was unknown whether the government would become chaotic.

The Marquis of Qi also said: "We don't raise moths in Qi State. These high officials are not loyal to Qi State. Raising them in Qi State is also a hidden danger, and they also occupy important official positions. After the Great Renovation, if there are vacancies in official positions, the subordinates will fill them up on their own. "

When everyone heard this, there was an uproar. Of course, it was not for other reasons, but because they were happy. Just now, many people were still thinking about whether it would affect the government and the like. , is to give the loyal scholar-bureaucrats a lot of benefits, telling them that as long as they are loyal, they can be promoted. Everyone present, except for some senior officials who have already high official positions, will basically appreciate collectively. Everyone has gained sweetness. Who is not happy?

So all the ministers quickly knelt down, kowtowed and saluted, saying: "The king is wise! The king is wise! The king is wise!"

Everyone shouted three times in succession, Marquis Qi sneered, and said: "Today when offering sacrifices to the river god, there are rebels disturbing them, which is disrespectful to the mountains and rivers of heaven, earth, and rivers. Let these people's heads be used to worship the great mountains and rivers of our country of Qi! "

Qihou's voice was very penetrating, although it was not loud, it was shocking, and all the officials immediately shouted "Sacrifice to the mountains and rivers".

When Da Sikong and the loyal officials saw it, they immediately felt that there was no hope of escape, and their faces were as pale as death.

The situation was reversed in an instant, and it was brought under control at once. In fact, for today, Qihou and Wu Jiu also discussed for a long time, and made a lot of countermeasures. The soldiers rushed over to rescue them, but today's situation is much easier to control than imagined.

Zhanxiong dragged Da Sikong to carry out the execution, in front of everyone, to serve as a warning to everyone else, at this moment, he suddenly heard Wu Jiao yell "Be careful!"

Gongsun's ignorant descendants over there seemed to be jumping over the wall in a hurry, and suddenly broke away from the soldiers who were holding him down, took out a dagger from his arms, rushed forward quickly, and was about to stab the dagger at Qihou.

Wu Jiu yelled, and hurried over.Qihou's reaction was also quick, and he suddenly wanted to hide to the side.And at this moment, someone suddenly rushed out from the side and stopped Qihou in front of him.

Doctors Qing suddenly let out a gasp of "Ho!", and then heard a sound of "Chi!!", the sound of a dagger piercing into the flesh, and a sound of "Boom!", someone fell in front of Qihou, paralyzed in an instant. You can't move on the ground.

Wu Jiu knocked away Gongsun's ignorant descendant, but saw Tou Shang rushing up suddenly, the dagger plunged into Tou Shang's chest, stabbing at the root.

Everyone shouted loudly, unexpectedly, Tong Shang rushed out to block Qi Hou's sword.

Soon, Gongsun Wuzhi was pushed to the ground by Zhanxiong Cao GUI who rushed up. At the same time, Gongsun Wuzhi was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said: "Hahahaha!! Your Sikong is going to die!! There is poison on the dagger! Seeing blood seals the throat! Your Sikong is going to die! Let me see how your canals are going to be repaired! How to repair them!!"

Qihou and Wu Jiu looked at Tong Shang who was lying on the ground in shock, his face turned pale immediately, blood overflowed from the wound, his eyes turned white, his lips instantly turned blue, his breathing was not smooth, and he was paralyzed. The ground was trembling constantly.

Qi Hou and Wu Jiu rushed over quickly, Wu Jiu held down Tong Shang's bleeding wound with a handkerchief, Tong Shang couldn't breathe well, and kept trembling, Qi Hou's face was very gloomy, and he shouted in a low voice: "Come here!! Doctor Where is the officer! Quickly save people!"

Everyone didn't expect that Tong Shang would suddenly rush out to block the dagger from the sneak attack for Marquis Qi. Since Tong Shang is the only talent in Qi who can build water conservancy projects, the dagger must have been coated with blood-seeking poison to seal his throat. passed out.

Tang Wu hurriedly rushed out from the crowd, carrying a small medicine box on his back, threw it on the ground with a bang, opened it quickly, took out the medicine powder from it with trembling hands, sprinkled it around the wound, and said: "The poison on the sword is very poisonous." Overbearing, I want to draw my sword now."

Qihou's face was gloomy, and he said, "Quickly pull out."

Tang Wuyou took the pill, put it into Tong Shang's mouth, and asked him to hold it, but Tong Shang could hardly hold it, his mouth was trembling, and he was vaguely calling...Tang'er.

Tang Wu was already nervous, but when he heard his voice, he became even more nervous. He pressed Tong Shang's chest with one hand, and the dagger with the other. He breathed a sigh of relief, but he still didn't dare to pull it out.

The dagger was poisonous, and it was pierced very deep. Tang Wu had been studying medicine for so many years, and this was the first time he met someone who dared not treat him. Even Wu Jiu's body, which looked like a hornet's nest, Tang Wu was confident that he could cure it. now……

Tang Wu didn't dare to draw his sword. At this moment, Tong Shang narrowed his eyes with difficulty, raised his hand slightly, grabbed Tang Wu's wrist with great effort, looked at him and nodded weakly.

Tang Wu pursed her lips, gritted her teeth, suddenly became ruthless, and brought out the dagger with a loud "嗤!".

"Hoo!!"

In an instant, Tong Shang's tall body tensed suddenly, and then his head tilted, and he passed out directly. Qi Hou quickly reached out his hand to feel Tong Shang's breath, and the poisonous blood almost touched Qi Hou's hand.

There is still breathing, but it is too weak, Qi Hou quickly said: "Quick! Stop the bleeding! You can't die yet!"

A well-established sacrificial ceremony became chaotic, and Qi Hou was so angry that he ordered people to quarter the corpses of Da Sikong and Gongsun Wuzhi's descendants and chop them into meat paste.

Everyone returned to the palace in a hurry, and Shang Shang's expression was even more ugly, he was almost dead, his chest didn't rise and fall, and he was lying on the couch, as if he was a corpse.

Tang Wu was kneeling in front of the couch, with a lot of blood on his clothes, trying his best to detoxify and rescue him, but also sweating profusely, in the early winter weather, beads of sweat rolled down from his forehead continuously.

With a sullen face, Qi Hou walked up and down the house anxiously, unable to survive for a moment, he was very worried, because Qi Hou knew that if Tong Shang died, the preparations for these months would be in vain. No one in the country can build canals like Tong Shang.

Seeing Marquis Qi walking up and down, Wu Jiu said softly, "Your Majesty."

When Qihou saw Wu Jiu, the two of them walked out of the inner room and came to the outer room. Qihou's face was very ugly, and he said: "It's hard to overthrow Da Sikong, and now the canal can be repaired, but this kind of thing happened. matter!"

Wu Jiu said: "Tang'er's medical skills are excellent, and he will definitely be able to save Dr. Yu."

Qihou nodded, and said: "I hope so... In this huge country of Qi, apart from Yi Shang, Gu Zhen doesn't know who can be so precious about water power."

Although both Qihou and Wu Jiu have begun to doubt the identity of Tong Shang, but Qihou is right, Tong Shang is very familiar with water power, and the construction is about to start, if Tong Shang has something good or bad, Qi will lose China, after all, all the preparations have been planned, and a lot of manpower and financial resources have been deployed.

Regardless of whether Yu Shang is a spy sent by Chu State, this canal must be repaired.

Qihou and Wu Jiu waited outside for a long, long time, until it was dark, Ziqing and Yan'e brought tea and dinner, and they were not in the mood to eat.

At this moment, Tang Wu from inside came out, with a tired but relaxed expression on his face, Qi Hou hurriedly rushed forward and said, "How is Doctor Xi?"

Tang Wu's voice was hoarse and weak, and he said, "It's all right, it's just that he lost too much blood and needs rest."

When he said this, Marquis Qi and Wu Jiu heaved a sigh of relief, feeling that the canal was saved...

Seeing Wu Tang's complexion was very ugly and his voice was hoarse, Wu Jiao knew that he hadn't left all afternoon, neither drank nor eaten, and couldn't take it any longer, so he quickly said, "Tang'er, go and rest for a while."

Tang Wu shook his head and said: "Thank you Da Situ, Tang'er doesn't need to rest. Although Mr. Tou's toxin is cleared, but the wound is deep. Tang'er is afraid that Mr. Tou will have a fever in the middle of the night, so she needs to stay here tonight."

Wu Jiu disagreed and said, "Your body..."

Tang Wu said quickly, "Tang'er is fine."

Tang Wu's attitude was very firm, and Wu Jiu didn't persuade him any more. He Shang was rescued, and everyone was relieved. Qi Hou and Wu Jiu were also exhausted, so Qi Hou took Wu Jiu back to the small bedroom. , Go back and have dinner first, and then the rebellion will also need to be dealt with later.

Tang Wugong sent Qihou and Wu Jiu off, then went back to the house, inspected Tong Shang, and then sat on the side table, he didn't dare to leave, took two bites of dinner in a hurry, and drank several times A glass of water eased his hoarse throat.

The night was getting darker soon, Tang Wu wanted to keep watch, but he didn't know if he was too tired, so he was a little dizzy, his mind was getting more and more dizzy, and he couldn't turn around, and there was a "boom" He fell to the ground.

In the dark night, everything was very quiet. After Tang Wu fell to the ground, Tong Shang, who had been unconscious on the couch, slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at him like that, he seems to have woken up a long time ago, not just woke up, and there is no confusion or unconsciousness in his eyes.

Tong Shang glanced at the comatose Tang Wu, and then sat up with difficulty supporting his body. When he moved, there was a tearing pain in the bandaged chest. The pain was so painful that Tong Shang was almost as dead as he was panting Come.

Cold sweat rolled down his forehead suddenly, and his weak hands trembled.

There was actually a reason why Shang Shang blocked the sword for Marquis Qi. Ta Shang also vaguely realized that perhaps Wu Jiu had doubted himself a little. After all, Shang Shang was very smart. Own.

Tong Shang felt that his identity was in jeopardy. If the Qi people found out, there would be only one way to die. Therefore, Tong Shang took the risk and blocked the sword for Marquis Qi. If he died, he would be considered loyal to the King of Chu. , can also gain a little trust.

Actually there is another reason...

That is, Ta Shang has not had any chance to send out the information he got recently. For several months, Ta Shang was surrounded by people, and he couldn't get away to deliver the letter.

Now that Tong Shang is seriously injured and weak, the Qi people will definitely relax their vigilance towards him, and Tong Shang feels that now is a good time to send a letter.

Tang Wu fell into a coma and fell to the ground. Tong Shang got off the couch, pressed his chest, gently picked Tang Wu up carefully, put him on the mat, let him lie on the desk, and tidied up Tang Wu's pose.

After doing this kind of thing, Shang Shang was already exhausted, he was panting heavily, his footsteps were unsteady, and he was about to pass out at any moment, so he leaned on the wall, slowly opened the door and walked out.

Tong Shang had obtained Qi's "Soldiers and Horses Deployment Map" a long time ago, but he couldn't send it out. He happened to be injured today, and Tang Wu was the only one guarding him, so he took the opportunity to sneak out.

Tong Shang went out for a long time, and the sleepy Tang Wu heard the sound of the door closing "squeaky-" and slowly opened his eyes, then spit out a small pill from his mouth.

Tang Wu's eyes were calm and indifferent in the dark, he just smelled a slightly sweet smell, what kind of person Tang Wu is, he is a person who studies medicine and is also a person who is good at using poison .

He still used the drug to confuse Tang Wu, but Tang Wu found out immediately, and put the pill under his tongue with the action of drinking water, the drug didn’t work on Tang Wu at all, and Tang Wu fainted just now , it's just a pretense.

Tang Wu quickly got up, hurried out of the door, and quickly went to the small bedroom.

When Tong Shang came back, he seemed to be salvaged from the water. He was already dying, his chest was stained red with blood, and the gauze bandages were no longer effective.

Tong Shang opened the door and came in, and saw that Tang Wu was still lying on the table without waking up, and Tong Shang sat down beside him, stroking Tang Wu's eyebrows and temples with his big cold hands.

Tong Shang's eyes were very distracted, as if he was going to die soon, he said softly in a hoarse voice: "Tang'er...it's you...you are still the same, you haven't changed...but Tong Shang...is no longer the old Tao Shang. It's..."

As Shang said, he gave a wry smile, stroked the top of Tang Wu's hair lightly, and then slipped his hand, and with a "bang", he slid to the ground and passed out.

Tang Wuben was pretending to be asleep, and he was very surprised that Tong Shang recognized him. This tone clearly recognized him a long time ago.

Tong Shang fainted suddenly, Tang Wu quickly opened his eyes, and saw that Tong Shang was covered in blood, he quickly helped him up, put him on the couch, and stopped the bleeding of Tong Shang.

Tong Shang has always been weak. After all, he was seriously injured, and he still endured the pain and went out to deliver the letter. Walking around like this is like walking around the gate of hell.

For the next two or three months, Tong Shang spent all his time on the couch, but it did not delay the progress of the canal. After three days of recuperation, Tong Shang began to direct the construction of the canal, because he could not miss the shallow water period in winter.

Although I haven't gone to the suburbs yet, I just read paperwork and progress reports every day, but it is also very exhausting. After two or three months, my body still hasn't recuperated.

Even so, Dao Shang did not dare to delay for a moment, after all, Chu State is about to send troops to Zheng State, and Dao Shang needs to exhaust Qi State, so he can't wait any longer.

Marquis Qi and Wu Jiu naturally meant to build water canals. Regardless of whether it is a plan to exhaust the Qi State, building water canals is a century-old plan. There are absolutely advantages and no disadvantages. After all, there is such an outstanding water conservancy expert. How can we let him go? Walk?

In addition, Tong Shang also worked hard, regardless of the purpose, he really worked hard, and the canal was repaired quickly and well. In three months, the canal outside Linzi City was almost completed.

The whole winter has passed in a hurry, and spring is about to begin.

On this day, Qihou and Wu Jiu were in the small dormitory, ready to go to bed, the chief executive, Sun Xipeng, rushed over from outside in a hurry and asked to see him.

Qihou asked Gongsun Xipeng to come in, because the canal outside Linzi City was about to be completed recently, and the problem of the former Da Sikong and ignorant rebellion had been dealt with, so Qihou was in a good mood.

Qihou looked at Gongsun Xipeng with a smile, and said, "In such a hurry to enter the palace, Xipeng wants to tell Gu about your marriage?"

At the mention of this, Gongsun Xipeng remembered that Qihou had promised himself and Yi Ya that as long as Yi Ya was willing to marry Gongsun Xipeng as a woman, he would be made Mrs. Da Sixing, and they would get married in the spring of next year. .

Because of the water canal and the rebellion, time flies, and it is already the beginning of spring in the coming year. Gongsun Xipeng has been busy with careful work recently, and he has to reconcile the princes and states. Chu State is still eyeing Zheng State and refuses to relax. Gongsun Xipeng was so busy that he had no time to think about getting married.

Being teased by the Marquis of Qi, Gongsun Xipeng felt a little unnatural, and cupped his hands and said, "Don't make fun of Xipeng, Your Majesty."

Marquis Qi smiled, and Wu Jiu said: "The chief minister must have something important to do when he enters the palace late at night?"

Gongsun Xipeng said quickly, "Exactly!"

As he spoke, he quickly backed away from the left and right, and only Qi Hou Wu Jiu and himself were left in the small bedroom, and then he whispered: "Your Majesty, the big thing is not good. Xi Peng just heard the report from the spies, and the state of Chu didn't know what to do. He actually got the map of our country's deployment of soldiers and horses, and the deployment of troops and horses is of great importance, so Xi Peng did not dare to delay, and came to the palace as soon as he got the news."

When Qi Hou and Wu Jiu heard this, they were taken aback for a moment, and then they both burst out laughing at the same time.

This matter is very serious. Once the soldiers and horses are leaked, many countries with malicious intentions will definitely attack weak places. Even if they cannot destroy the country, they will definitely suffer heavy losses. Rigorous and not rigorous, on the other hand, it is also a waste of time and money, and the loss is huge.

After Qi Hou and Wu Jiu heard this, they laughed in unison. The smiles of those two people, the honest man Gongsun Xipeng who laughed, was surprised and very puzzled.

Qihou smiled and said, "It's not a big deal."

Wu Jiu also said: "Jiao almost forgot, Chu State is too far away from Qi State, and it took so long to send the military and horse defense map, no wonder there has been no movement in Chu State for the past few months."

The more Gongsun Xipeng listened, the more confused he became. In the end, it was Wu Jiu who explained it to him. It turned out that they already had the details in their hearts, but they were not sure. Now the military and horse deployment map fabricated by Wu Jiu's family has reached the hands of the people of Chu. , Qi Hou and Wu Jiu can finally be sure...

Tong Shang, a talented water conservancy expert, was indeed a spy sent by the Chu people.

Tang Wu also came to report before, saying that after he was seriously injured, he went out secretly once, and he didn't know what to do, Wu Jiu just
