After hearing this, Li Tonggu's smile froze on his face. He swallowed and asked, "My lord, why don't you go?"

Han Yi asked, "Is there a safer place than Wangcheng?"

Li Tonggu was very straightforward: "I think Hancheng is safer."

Han Yi: ...

The state of Chu made things difficult for him, if he didn't do something, he would really be sorry for himself.

Han Yi said: "We have all arrived in Chu State. If we don't go to find out the reality of Chu State, wouldn't it be a waste of time?"

Li Tonggu asked: "Master...how do you want to find out the truth?"

Han Yi was also very straightforward: "I haven't thought about it, let's talk about it when we get to the King's City of Chu."

Li Tonggu asked in a low voice: "Would you blow up the King's City of Chu?"

Han Yi:? ? ? ? ?

He said angrily, "Do you think the King Chu City is as unlucky as the Yan King City?"

There are a lot of coal resources under Wangcheng, how many of them can come across it?

Li Tonggu thought to himself: Yan Guo is not unlucky, he has offended people who shouldn't be offended.

Although Li Tonggu also knew the truth, he still felt that Han Yi had nothing to do with it. Otherwise, how could King Yan's city be bombed so cleverly?

However, when Han Yi said that he would not bomb the King's City of Chu, Li Tonggu also believed it. After all, if he bombed again this time, there would really be no response.

When Han Yi bombed last time, Yan Zheng had led the army to attract most of Yan's troops away. Otherwise, how could Han Yi escape so easily?

Not to mention that Yan Zheng took the risk and led troops to help. Last time, no one could stop Yan Zheng. This time... this time, no one can stop him. I'm afraid that those people will hold down and clean up the credit for his achievements.

Taking their monarch into the fire pit every day, who can bear it, everyone is still waiting for the monarch to lead them to a happy and beautiful life.

Of course, the main reason is that Li Tonggu couldn't stop Han Yi, so he simply asked: "It's just that something so big has happened now, we can go to Wangcheng, then... What are they going to do with Ah Cheng?"

Han Yi said: "The soldiers are divided into two groups. You send someone to escort Xun Lao Lingshu back to Hancheng first, and hand it over to Uncle Tongyuan. I will write him a letter. He knows how to arrange it. Ah Sheng will go to Wangcheng with us to seek justice." !"

Li Tonggu was a little puzzled: "Revenge?"

Han Yi nodded: "Yes, Xun Mao died in vain, how can Xun Cheng remain indifferent, and let him use the excuse of sending Phoenix Jade to King Chu to avenge his younger brother."

Li Tonggu couldn't help but slap his thigh, why didn't he think of this reason?

"But what if someone blocks it?"

Han Yi said: "Then let Xun Cheng threaten to smash the Phoenix Jade. Anyway, he is now 'broken and dead'. It's normal to be crazy. The more honest people become crazy, the more frightening they are."

Li Tonggu asked again: "Then our identity is..."

"What us? Are you stupid? You are a disciple of Xun Lao."

Li Tonggu quickly said: "No, I mean the identity of the lord..."

Han Yi said: "It's simple, let's say that I am a merchant, and I was fortunate enough to have Xun Lao give me advice, so this time I am willing to use all my family's wealth to avenge Xun Cheng's grievances."

Li Tonggu was convinced, he had thought of everything in a short period of time, his master's mind was really fast enough.

He had reason to believe that Han Yi made this decision after learning that the king of Chu was going to marry the princess to the king.

After all, on the road before, Han Yi has been emphasizing that he must keep a low profile, and it is best not to let the nobles of Chu State notice them.

Not only are they not keeping a low profile now, but they have to go to the base camp of Chu State, and Xun Cheng is already very eye-catching, and they may not be able to keep a low profile.

Li Tonggu thought of this and said: "Then I'll go tell Ah Cheng that he's exhausted both physically and mentally these two days, but Phoenix Jade..."

Han Yi said: "If you can fake it, you can fake it. If you can't... then let him offer it. Anyway, it will be returned to Ah Zheng in the end. If it doesn't work, I will send someone to hijack it halfway. His family's heirloom was returned to him, and if it doesn't work, I'll pay him a better one."

Li Tonggu covered his chest, even better...Phoenix jade is a rare and beautiful jade in the world.

He couldn't help reminding: "Master, Phoenix Jade is very valuable, even the King of Chu doesn't have such a beautiful jade."

Han Yi waved his hand: "If he doesn't have it, it doesn't mean I don't have it. Don't worry."

Li Tonggu would not doubt it, but was worried that Xun Cheng would not agree.

After he left, he tried his best to recall the jade wares in his warehouse, and finally realized...there were too many jade wares in his warehouse.

There is no way, Yan Zheng likes jade, so every time he is rewarded partly with gold and partly with jade, and the rest are some valuable antiques.

To be honest, in this era, pottery and the like are still used in the future. Antiques...the value is really not very high.

The gold was also given because Yan Zheng felt that Han Yi liked gold.

If he could, he wouldn't let Xun Cheng offer the Phoenix Jade. After all, even if he thought he could get it back, he wasn't 100% sure.

But now he is mainly thinking—there should be no coal or other resources that can cause explosions under the Chu King City, right?

Han Yi tried his best to recall the location of that place in the later generations, as if... He hadn't heard of any resources.

After thinking about it, Han Yi suddenly realized—he wouldn't bomb the Chu Palace, why should he think about it?

I was really led astray by Li Tonggu!

Li Tonggu, who was looking for Xuncheng, couldn't help but sneezed, rubbed his nose and looked at the sky suspiciously, wondering who was scolding him again.

However, he is used to it. As one of the chief examiners of the imperial examination, it seems normal for those candidates who failed to scold him.

He walked to the door of Xun Cheng's room and found that Xun Cheng's room was pitch-black. He thought that Xun Cheng had already fallen asleep, so he paused. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard Xun Cheng's voice from inside: "Brother Li?"

Li Tonggu was a little surprised when he heard this: "Ah Cheng didn't sleep?"

Xun Cheng opened the door, the moonlight reflected on his pale face, making him look particularly thin.

He smiled slightly and said: "Where can I sleep, brother is looking for me for something."

Li Tonggu followed him in and asked, "Why don't you light the lamp since you haven't slept?"

Xun Sheng paused before saying, "It's nothing, just thinking about something, no need for a lamp."

Li Tonggu sighed: "Miss Teacher again?"

Xun Cheng shook his head: "I'm thinking about Ah Mao, and I don't know what's going on with him. I... haven't even been able to meet him."

In order to avoid mistakes in the middle, Heishui and Chishan took Xun Mao out of the city directly after they came out, and handed them over to the escort sent by Li Tonggu.

Xun Cheng didn't know what happened to his younger brother, whether he was injured at Mr. Changping's house before.

Li Tonggu comforted: "Don't worry, didn't Heishui and Chishan say that when they came back? They weren't injured, so Mr. Changping must have been scruples and didn't dare to do anything. When you return to Hancheng in the future, your brothers will be able to meet each other." "

Xun Cheng responded softly and asked, "Senior brother, why are you looking for me?"

Li Tonggu thought about what Han Yi meant, and Xun Cheng couldn't help but gasp after hearing this: "Jingyue Gong...he is very human."

Han Yi had too many auras, and Xun Cheng was already a little bit admirable, but now he heard that Han Yi dared to run to the King's City of Chu, and he was even more admirable.

Li Tonggu said with emotion: "If it weren't for this, how could he be in a high position at such a young age?"

Daqin is now the most powerful country in the Central Plains. Can ordinary people be the Sangong of Daqin?

Xun Cheng asked: "Then senior brother thinks... Is what Mr. Yue Yue said feasible?"

Li Tonggu thought for a while and said: "It's hard to say, but at least [-]% sure."

Xun Sheng said decisively: "If you can avenge father, so what if you really offer the Phoenix Jade?"

Li Tonggu was taken aback: "Ah Cheng?"

He didn't expect that Xun Cheng would agree, and the most important thing was that he didn't expect that Xun Cheng was ready to donate the Phoenix Jade.

Xun Cheng said in a flat tone: "Brother, I have thought a lot these two days, and now that I have reached this point, Phoenix Jade... I can't keep it."

Li Tonggu immediately said: "You, me, and Junior Brother Zhang."

Xun Cheng smiled wryly: "Of course I know that the two senior brothers will protect me, but if someone really covets the phoenix jade, what can the two senior brothers do? The senior brothers are now in good momentum in Qin, but they may not be able to do anything about it. .”

Li Tonggu was at a loss for words for a while, if he really had nothing to do, would he turn his head and hug Han Yi's thigh?

Is Korea really easy to govern?Who likes to be challenged when there are tasks that can be easily completed?

Isn't there no way for Li Tonggu?

At that time, even those Chinese will have an excuse to attack.

He thought for a while and said, "My lord... is not afraid of them."

If Han Yi made up his mind to protect Xun Cheng, let alone those Chinese, even the king would not snatch it.

Of course, the two parties have different ideas, but the final result is the same.

Xun Sheng asked back: "But what do I have that is worthy of being protected by Mr. Yue?"

Li Tonggu said with a smile: "My lord values ​​talents the most, Ah Sheng, don't underestimate yourself."

Xun Cheng shook his head and said, "No, I'm not belittling myself, but it's not worth it, unless... this piece of Phoenix Jade belongs to him."

Xun Cheng suddenly stood up and took two steps on the spot, and said suddenly: "If Lord Yue Yue can promise me to hand over my enemy to me when Da Qin defeats Chu in the future, I will offer the Phoenix Jade to me." give him!"

Li Tonggu was taken aback: "Do you think the Chu State is defeated?"

Xun Cheng sneered: "Great Qin is flourishing now, how can the imperial court get a glimpse of Duke Yue and his senior brother, but what about Chu State now? It is still busy with infighting, and the nobles only know how to spend their days and drinks, what future is there for them!"

It's hard for Li Tonggu to say that Daqin's officialdom was also infighting, but it was suppressed by Han Yi forcefully. With such a Zhenshan Taisui around, why fight?

Fighting with him is courting death. Fighting with other people, what if that person turns around in a hurry and joins Zhong Shuling?

Therefore, an interesting phenomenon in the officialdom of the Qin State is that the top officials are very peaceful, and there will be different political opinions among them, and there will be quarrels at the court meeting, but no one will really fight to the death.

It is the low-level officials who are really fighting to the death. However, no one will be killed easily, because the people above are suppressing them.

Li Tonggu thought about this in his heart, but he said: "My lord may not like the Phoenix Jade. I asked him what to do when he arrived in Wangcheng, and he said that if there is no other way, he will offer the Phoenix Jade. Anyway, he will go to the Qin Kingdom in the end." , he will take it back to you, and if he can’t get it back, he will pay you a better one.”

Because Li Tonggu taught him how rich Han Yi is, Xun Cheng was not particularly surprised at this time, but said with emotion: "Mr. Yue Yue is really a gentleman, so let's go and see if the King of Chu can give me one." Satisfied confession."

Of course, it is more likely that the king of Chu got the jade and threw his affairs aside. After all, is such a trivial matter really let the king do it himself?

Or at the end, randomly find two unimportant scapegoats and throw them out.

Xun Sheng thought of many possibilities, but still agreed to Han Yi's request.

He didn't know why he agreed, he obviously attached great importance to this family heirloom jade.

When he was on the road later, he found that he was a little excited, as if he was about to witness some great event, and then he realized that he was expecting Han Yi to make something happen in the King's City of Chu.

Han Yi himself didn't expect that Xun Cheng had such high expectations of him, and he was still praising Xun Cheng's acting skills.

He was originally worried that Xun Sheng's acting skills were not good, and people would find out that he was crying insincerely, which would lead to the abort of all subsequent plans.

Unexpectedly, when the news came the next day that Mr. Changping's family was silenced from top to bottom, Xun Cheng's shocked expression couldn't be more real.

Of course, the shock on Han Yi's face was also very real—he had told Heishui to kill Lord Changping before, but he didn't say that he was going to slaughter his whole family.

I never expected Heishui's hands to be so dark.

It was only later that he realized that it was not appropriate to say that the whole family was slaughtered. After all, Heishui was alone, so how could he kill so many people in such a short period of time?

Even if people line up and ask him to stand there and chop it, it's impossible.

So Heishui just killed Mr. Changping and his wives and concubines, and some grown-up children were also killed. The young ones were left untouched, but this was shocking enough.

After Xun Cheng heard about it, he was stunned at first, then shocked. After a while, he caught the messenger and asked how his younger brother was doing.

When the reporter faltered, Xun Cheng ran out like crazy, and Li Tonggu naturally rushed out with his people to protect him.

Mr. Changping's mansion was in a mess at this time, but there were still guards at the door to prevent people from entering easily.

Li Tonggu was ready to help, but unexpectedly, Xun Cheng broke out, beat up two guards and broke in.

Li Tonggu followed behind and looked stunned - wait, where is his gentle and elegant junior?

Although he knew that the younger brother would also learn some techniques to strengthen his body, but... those two guards looked quite tall, so they were beaten to the ground like this?

Strong on the outside but dry on the inside?

Li Tonggu followed Xun Cheng and ran in. Han Yi originally wanted to watch outside, but when he saw Xun Cheng stepping on the guards and rushing in, he was stupid, so he couldn't hold back and led others to follow him.

Of course, after he followed up, he turned his head and told Heishui to pay attention to destroying the scene. No matter how simple and rude the methods used to solve the crime these days, the crimes were also very simple and rude. It would be bad if something was found out. .

Han Yi was thinking about what to do while exhorting, but he didn't expect that the crowd of onlookers would also help them.

You must know that the onlookers these days are the ones who dare to go to Caishikou to watch the chariot execution. How bloody, they not only watch, but also discuss happily.

So even though Lord Changping's mansion was already bleeding like rivers, they didn't seem to be feeling well.

With so many people pouring in, Han Yi knew that they didn't need to do anything. The scene must have been severely damaged. If he wanted to find the murderer...then go find it. In the end, he could only throw out a scapegoat.

After Han Yi was relieved, he was going to look for Xun Cheng. When he was thinking about where Xun Cheng was going, he suddenly heard a mournful cry, which was like a magic voice piercing his ears. , it must be over there."

Heishui saw that it was indeed the place where he rescued Xun Mao yesterday, so he didn't stop him, but stood by Han Yi's side to prevent him from being squeezed by the crowd.

After all, the onlookers were like headless chickens, so when they heard this sound, they were naturally attracted to them.

After they passed by, Han Yi saw from a distance that Xun Cheng was crying heartbreakingly while hugging a headless corpse, saying...something he didn't quite understand.

Han Yi tilted his head and thought for a while before realizing that Xun Cheng should be speaking in the Chu language, and they used elegant dialect to communicate before.

It seems that Xunqing is also very attentive to his son's education, and Xuncheng's polite words are so good that he didn't even realize that Xuncheng is from Chu.

Although he didn't know what Xun Cheng was yelling, the way he wept had already conveyed the meaning.

Han Yi secretly looked aside and found that many onlookers were wiping tears and discussing something with each other.

At this moment, a person beside Han Yi wiped his tears and turned his head to Han Yi and opened his mouth with a string of gibberish words.

Han Yi: ...

I don't understand, what should I do?Waiting online, very urgent.

Don't say he didn't understand, Heishui Chishan and the others were all confused, so Han Yi had no choice but to start his own performance-wiping his eyes pretendingly, and nodding with sympathy and sadness.

Anyway, this person must be discussing something about the Xun family. He is either pitiful or sympathetic, just follow suit.

In the end, I don't know if the man took the wrong medicine. After seeing Han Yi nodding, he was excited. He reached out and grabbed his wrist, and there was another series of chattering, and because of the excitement, he spoke more than twice as fast.

Han Yi: ...

Help!

Heishui and Chishan immediately guarded Han Yi behind him. The man glared at Heishui and Chishan, but when he saw that Heishui and Chishan were tall and muscular, he silently stopped talking, but still looked at him. Looking in Han Yi's direction, he glanced reluctantly.

Han Yi:? ? ? ?

What did he say?

By this time, Han Yi was in no mood to continue watching. Anyway, he was relieved that Xun Cheng's acting skills were good enough, and he just went back and waited for the news.

Han Yi signaled to Heishui and Chishan, then turned his head and left, telling them to be careful not to follow them.

After returning to Xunfu, Han Yi began to think, should he learn the language of Chu?

It shouldn't be difficult, right?Otherwise, he might not even know what they said when he arrived at the King City of Chu, and it would be difficult to get useful information.

It happened that it would take some time on the road from Lanling to the King City of Chu, and Han Yi did not require himself to be able to speak fluently, as long as he could understand.

Just when he decided to learn the Chu language, Li Tonggu came back with Xun Cheng.

To be exact, he came back with Xun Cheng on his arm.

Xun Cheng looked like he was going to collapse, and Han Yi couldn't help being very worried: "Why are you working so hard? It's almost enough."

Li Tonggu asked Zhang Cang to help Xun Cheng into the room while sighing and said, "It's good to let him vent, it's always sad in my heart."

Han Yi asked, "What's going on at Lord Changping's mansion now?"

Li Tonggu smiled and said, "What else? It's a mess."

"No one cares?" Han Yi was a little surprised.

Li Tonggu glanced at Heishui and said, "Everyone who can decide will die, who cares?"

Han Yi wondered, "Where's the local county magistrate?"

Li Tonggu said: "The teacher used to be the county magistrate of Lanling, but he left suddenly, and the new county magistrate is still on his way!"

Han Yi: ...

What kind of efficiency is this? The county magistrate died in the line of duty, so what about the people below?What about the magistrate?

The government affairs of the whole county are so neglected waiting for the next magistrate?

If this were to be placed in Qin, Han Yi would be able to spray those people with blood if he knew about it.

However, the more backward the enemy country is, the better it is for them.

Han Yi suddenly thought: "Does that mean...even if we leave now, no one will find out?"

Li Tonggu said: "The discovery will definitely be discovered, but it is estimated that no one will stop it."

It's not that there is any enmity with Xun's family, and when Xunqing was in office, he often helped orphans and widows, and ordinary people helped them.

Han Yi was speechless for a long time after hearing this, what was he planning for a long time.

In that case, can Xun Sheng let him go to Hancheng first?

No, no, who will teach him Chu language when Xun Cheng is gone?

And if Xun Cheng goes, there will be more room for maneuver.

Because they had already prepared, Han Yi and the others left Lanling early the next morning for the King City of Chu.

As Li Tonggu said, the whole Lanling is in chaos now, and the death of Lord Changping made many people tremble with fear.

Not only because of the strangeness of the death, but more because of the ambiguity of the royal family's death. Will they be implicated?

After discovering that Xun Sheng had left, many wealthy households prepared to flee in panic.

And Han Yi, who was on the road at this time, asked worriedly: "You still have people in your family? Are you not afraid of something happening?"

Xun Sheng said very calmly at this time: "If all of them leave, it is easy for people to misunderstand that I was the one who killed Mr. Changping, so I left a few family members behind and let them preach that we are going to Wangcheng to avenge justice. Anyway, my family's land Nothing like that, plus this explanation, shouldn’t be misunderstood.”

Han Yi didn't say a word. From the very beginning, he wasn't worried that Xun Sheng would be misunderstood. Anyway, Xun Sheng wanted to go with him, and if he misunderstood, he misunderstood.

But Xun Cheng was thoughtful and he didn't say anything, instead he said: "I want to learn Chu language so as not to show off, I wonder if Xun Lang can teach me?"

Xun Cheng had a flattered expression on his face: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be."

Anyway, I have nothing to do when I have nothing to do. Teaching one by one can be considered as a way to pass the time.

I don't know if it is true that Han Yi has a talent for languages, or Chu language itself belongs to the Central Plains language family. Anyway, when he is about to arrive at the Chu Kingdom City, he has already learned almost the same.

This is almost enough to understand everything, and it is almost the same.

During this process, Han Yi kept communicating with Yan Zheng, and wondered if Yan Zheng would find out, after all... the time for the organ bird to fly is getting longer and longer.

But even if he was worried, he didn't give up. When he arrived at the Chu King's City, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he saw the city gate from a distance: the city wall was too short, and the city gate was not big enough, which was far behind Xianyang.

After entering the city, I was even more disappointed, feeling... not as good as Hancheng.

Just when Han Yi was feeling emotional, someone rushed over suddenly, and Heishui and Chishan blocked him instantly. When Han Yi turned his head away, he saw the man's excited face and said, "Goro, it's really you, you're back ?”

Han Yi:? ? ? ?Calamus, who did you turn me into?
