Former Qin Fengyun

When it was still fifty miles away from Luoyang, Wang Meng saw that it was getting dark, so he ordered to set up camp.When everyone had their dinner and rested.Wang Meng said to Sun Bin, his confidant beside him, "Bring Jin Xi secretly."

Sun Bin saluted and said yes to go down.

Not long after, Jin Xi and Sun Bin walked into the tent of the Chinese army together.Jin Xi saluted and said, "Jin Xi has seen the prince."

Wang Meng nodded and waved his hand.Sun Bin put a wooden box in front of Jin Xi and opened the lid.When Jin Xi saw it, his eyes widened immediately, because it was full of golden bars.

Wang Meng said: "As long as one thing is done well, all the gold bars will belong to you."

After a long time, Jin Xi walked out of the tent with Murong Chui's golden knife.Sun Bin said worriedly: "My lord, can this matter be settled?"

Wang Mengyun said calmly: "This person has been greedy for money and lust for a long time, and he made mistakes many times in Yan Kingdom because of this. If it wasn't for Murong Chui's efforts to protect him, he would have passed away long ago."

Sun Bin immediately said: "It turns out that the prince has already found out the details of this person."

Wang Meng replied: "Not only this person, but everyone under Murong Chui's lead has been exposed. For example, the man named Gao Bi beside him, the city government is extremely scheming, so we must guard against it."

Sun Bin nodded and said: "Sun Bin will keep it in mind. But the prince is so dedicated, the king of heaven comforts him."

Wang Meng looked at him and said: "Everything Wang has is bestowed by the Heavenly King, and there is no repayment for it. Only by sharing his worries can he feel relieved."

Murong Ling, who was going to sleep, suddenly saw Jin Xi walking in mysteriously, and asked in puzzlement, "Is there something important to come here late at night?"

Jin Xi saluted and replied: "Report to your son, and the last general will deliver the word from the prince."

Murong Ling looked at him suspiciously.

Jin Xi continued: "You, my father and son and their family members went to Qin to avoid disaster. However, Wang Meng is narrow-minded and making things difficult everywhere. Although Fu Jian is superficially courteous, his holy heart is unpredictable. I heard that Emperor Yan was afraid of Qin. There is no one in the army, so I deliberately recalled us for reuse. Besides, my father was already on the way back to Yan, and the incident happened suddenly, so I asked Jin Xi to use the golden sword as a witness to inform him."

After Murong Ling listened, he fell into deep thought.He secretly said in his heart: "When I left Chang'an, my father never mentioned this matter. But now there is a golden knife as evidence, so it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity of this matter."

After Jin Xi saw what he was thinking, he said again: "The golden knife and the message were sent by someone sent by the prince quietly. Because he was afraid of attracting people's attention, the prince could not get away, so he told the last general."

Only then did Murong Ling nod in faith, and said: "Blood is connected, how can we see death without saving. You and I leave immediately and return to Yan Kingdom."

Jin Xi shook his head and said: "If the two leave, I'm afraid that the king will find out and send troops to kill them. Therefore, the prince will leave first, and he will stay behind to delay time and deal with him."

Murong Ling, the eldest son who was not deeply involved in the world, said movedly: "You are as loyal as Bigan."

Jin Xi secretly laughed in his heart, but on the surface he still said righteously and awe-inspiringly; "It's not too late, please leave quickly."

Murong Ling nodded, then turned and left the big tent.He led his horse and left quietly.But Wang Meng, who was standing in the distance, smiled with satisfaction.

Just as Jin Xi was about to leave Murong Ling's big tent and go to the Chinese army's big tent to get gold bars, he suddenly saw Deng Qiang walking in with a big knife in his hand.Jin Xi took a few steps back in fright, and said nervously, "General Deng, what do you mean?"

Deng Qiang said with a sneer: "Under the order of the prince, arrest the rebels."

Jin Xi shook his head again and again, and said in horror: "The last general is a minister of merit, why does the prince treat him like this?"

Deng Qiang didn't answer, but raised his knife and chopped off Jin Xi's head to the ground.

Then Deng Qiang took the head and came to the big tent of the Chinese Army. Wang Meng, who was writing a letter, looked up at Jin Xi's head, and said to Deng Qiang, "Thank you, General, put the head here. Go back to the tent early to rest."

Deng Qiang saluted and left.

After finishing the letter, Wang Meng handed the letter to Sun Bin, and said: "Qin's stability depends on you."

Sun Bin took the letter with both hands, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this subordinate will definitely do this well." Then he saluted Wang Meng first, then put Jin Xi's head into the wooden box, and left the big tent.

Wang Meng said to himself: "Heavenly King, Murong is absolutely not allowed to stay."

Sun Bin rode a fast horse day and night, regardless of fatigue.One day later, Sun Bin finally returned to Chang'an.Having already found out that Murong Kai went to Qinyuan to drink tea at noon every day, he quietly hid in the dark corner of the street, and secretly observed and waited.

Half an hour later, Murong Kai in plain clothes came over with a few followers.When the Qinyuan clerk saw it, he immediately ran over with a smile on his face, saluted and said, "Master, you are here. Please come inside, the private room has already been prepared."

Murong Kai nodded his head slightly, and then led people in.Not long after, a pot of high-quality tea and several plates of exquisite refreshments were placed on Murong Kai's table.

Just as he was tasting tea, he suddenly saw a dusty man walking in with a wooden box in his hand from the outside. After a closer look, it turned out to be Wang Meng's confidant, Sun Bin.Xu Shi was too tired, Sun Bin suddenly fell down, and just threw the wooden box in his hand to Murong Kai's table.Because the lid of the wooden box was thrown away, the contents inside can be seen at a glance.Murong Kai glanced at it, and it was Jin Xi's head inside, so he couldn't be more surprised.At this time, Sun Bin got up from the ground, quickly picked up the box lid and put the wooden box back on.

Murong Kai immediately got up from his seat, cupped his hands and saluted and said, "I've met Mr. Sun."

Sun Bin looked up and saw that it was Murong Kai, and hurriedly saluted, "So it's Mr. Murong Kai."

Murong Kai asked: "Your Majesty Sun has not been with the prince for a long time, why did you return in such a hurry?"

Sun Bin deliberately replied in a secretive way: "This is an official business, so it's inconvenient to say more."

Murong Kai said with a smile: "Since that's the case, I don't need to ask. I think your lord hasn't eaten yet. If you don't mind, the rough tea is not enough." He didn't finish.

Sun Bin hurriedly bowed his hands and said: "Since Mr. Murong loves you so much, how can there be any reason to shirk?" He put the wooden box aside and put the burden on the wooden box.

Murong Ke could vaguely see a sealed letter from the baggage, and then winked at a follower beside him.Knowing how to follow, he nodded slightly.Afterwards, Murong Ke got up and filled Sun Bin with tea and offered it with both hands.

Sun Bin got up immediately and said, "How dare I bother you to serve the tea yourself."

Murong Ke said with a smile: "Your Excellency should share the country's worries." At the same time, the attendant quietly took the letter out of the bag and put it in his sleeve.Murong Kai was very happy to see that he had succeeded.But after seeing the situation, Sun Bin, who was thoughtful and thoughtful, knew everything clearly, and said in his heart: "Just take it, because this is what you have prepared."

After a stick of incense, Sun Bin got up to say goodbye.Murong Kai and his followers sent him out of the door.Seeing that Sun Bin had gone far away, he immediately left the teahouse to meet Murong Chui.

Murong Chui, who was talking to Lan Jian and Gao Bi, saw Murong Kai walking in hastily, and said in a low voice, "I met Sun Bin by chance today, and I saw Jin Xi's head with my own eyes. This is the stolen letter." Hand the letter to Murong Chui.

Murong Chui hastily opened it, his face changed greatly.Lan Jian asked, "What happened?"

Murong Chui said worriedly and panickedly: "Ling'er fled before the battle and returned to Yan Kingdom. Jin Xi has been killed now, and I will go all out to hunt down Ling'er."

Lan Jian shook his head and said, "Ling'er acts calmly and will definitely not do such a thing."

But Murong Ke said: "Now the evidence is solid, Fu Jianjian will be convinced and kill us."

Gao Bi, who had been in deep thought for a while, said, "My lord, the mastermind of this matter should be Wang Meng."

Murong Chui and the others looked at him in surprise.

Gao Bi continued: "Fu Jian is honest and trustworthy, loves and cherishes talents, and deeply believes in the words of Confucius and Mencius, and will not do anything that contradicts what he says. But Wang Meng is different. This man is scheming and decisive. He does everything to achieve his goals. Extermination of Wugong will prove the viciousness of his heart."

Murong Chui sighed, and said: "So what if you know what he did? Fu Jian may not believe it. For the current plan, we can only escape from Qin and find another way out."

But Gao Bi said: "Before that, why don't you send a letter of divorce from the prince to inform Fu Jian. Find out why he fled to Qin Dynasty. Maybe there is still a glimmer of hope?"

Murong Chui lowered his head and said: "Okay. Everyone, go back to your residence immediately, pack your bags and prepare to leave the city."

Everyone saluted and said yes.

At the same time, Sun Bin had already come to the General's Mansion to meet Li Wei.Seeing Sun Bin coming alone, Li Wei who was lying on the bed immediately asked all the servants in the room to retreat, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Sun Bin saluted and said: "I report to the general, I would like to borrow the general's token for use."

Li Wei smiled and said, "Pursuing Murong Chui?"

Sun Bin smiled without saying a word.

Li Wei took out the token from his bosom and handed it to Sun Bin, and said: "Murong Chui and others are all powerful generals, order Lu Polou to lead the cavalry, let them be killed."

Sun Bin nodded in agreement.

Half an hour later, Murong Chui and others came to the East Gate with a small amount of belongings in casual clothes.When the general guarding the city saw Murong Chui and the others, he hurried over, saluted and said, "The last general has seen the general."

Murong Chui said calmly: "Your Majesty, my relatives and others want to go out of the city to hunt."

The guard general smiled and said, "General, please."

Thus, Murong Chui and others left the East Gate smoothly and ran away.And the general who guarded the gate walked to the dark corner of the city to salute and said: "Sun and others, Murong Chui and others have left the city gate now. I wonder if we should pursue them now?"

Sun Bin said calmly: "Don't worry, after he has gone far, it won't be too late to chase him."

The general guarding the gate asked puzzledly: "Forgive me for being stupid, do you not understand what it means?"

Sun Bin explained: "Won't it make people wonder if you chase after him just out of the city?"

Lu Polou on the side said to Sun Bin: "My lord is clever and thoughtful, I admire you."

Sun Bin said humbly: "The general is absurd."

Murongchui and others ran for nearly a hundred miles and arrived at Lantian County.Just when everyone was about to stop and rest for a while, they suddenly heard horseshoes behind them.When everyone looked back, they were all shocked.I saw Lu Polou leading ten thousand cavalry rushing over.With no way out, Murongchui and the others had no choice but to take up their weapons and plan to die when the net is broken.

Suddenly, another group of people came from a distance.Lu Polou was also surprised. Looking back, it turned out to be the former general Yang An.Lu Polou said to herself: "The big thing is not good."

In a short while, Yang An led people to the front of Lu Polou, cupped his fists and saluted and said, "General Lu, I have ordered Murong Chui and others to enter the palace to face the saint."

Lu Polou did not dare to resist the order, and said helplessly, "Please."

Yang An urged his horse to come to Murong Chui and the others, saluted and said, "General, please."

Murongchui and others who saw the straw were overjoyed and went back to the city with Yang An.But Lu Polou said indignantly, "Could it be God's will?"

Yang An led Murong Chui and others to the Tai Chi Hall, and everyone couldn't kneel down.

Fu Jian looked at Murong Chui and asked, "Where does Qing want?"

Murong Chui said to himself: "Although Wang Meng wants to kill me, but if he gains Fu Jian's trust, he can rest easy." Therefore, he purposely replied aggrievedly: "Taishan."

Fu Jian asked puzzledly, "Why?"

Murong Chui said with moist eyes: "This subject has escaped so far, and the Heavenly King does not dislike it, and entrusts him with a heavy responsibility. Who knows that the rebellious son treasoned the country and returned to Yan, and the minister would have no face to meet the Heavenly King. He had to lead his family to Mount Tai to pray for the Heavenly King, so that he could be relieved. "

Yang An on the side said to himself, "It's nonsense."

But Fu Jian believed it was true, and said comfortingly: "Your son returned to Yan must be missing his homeland, and the dragon had nine sons, and the sons were different. His fault has nothing to do with Qing. Therefore, Qing is still terrified and embarrassed. All is well, go home with peace of mind.”

Overjoyed, Murong Chui kowtowed to thank him immediately, and then led his family to leave.And Lu Polou, who had been guarding outside the palace all the time, saw that everyone was safe and sound, chatting and laughing happily, so she knew that the result would be to return to her life.

When Li Wei and Sun Bin saw that Lu Polou had returned, they asked in unison, "How is it?"

Lu Polou saluted dejectedly and replied: "I don't know how the Heavenly King got the news, and sent Yang An and others to take him back to the palace, and he has now returned home safely."

Li Wei said angrily: "How can the king of heaven be so confused. If he is not here at this time, there will be serious troubles in the future." Then he said to Lu Polou: "Quickly go and pick five hundred elite soldiers." He hadn't finished speaking.

Sun Bin immediately saluted and said, "General, absolutely not."

Li Wei looked at him puzzled.

Sun Bin continued: "Murong Chui and others are extraordinary in martial arts, and they are not reckless. They have already alarmed the Heavenly King. If they are killed at this time, if they are left alive and told to the Heavenly King, I am afraid that the general and the prince will not be able to afford it."

Li Wei sighed helplessly, and did not speak again.

Sun Bin got up and saluted and said, "I don't need to stay long, please leave."

Li Wei said: "I hope the prince will think of a clever plan to get rid of it."

Sun Bin nodded and saluted and said yes to go down.

Sun Bin, who rushed back to Luoyang overnight, told the whole story, and then asked, "What tricks does the prince have?"

Wang Meng shook his head and said: "Missing a good opportunity to scare the snake, and then get rid of you, it's hard to reach the sky."

Sun Bin said anxiously; "Are you allowed to stay in Qin and make trouble?"

Wang Meng sighed softly and said: "The only thing we have to do now is not to give him the power, and wait for the time to get rid of it."

Murong Kai who came back to the mansion asked Murong Chui in puzzlement, "Why didn't His Majesty tell the whole story just now, maybe you can save Ling'er?"

Murong Chui, with red eyes, said sadly: "Wang Meng is the pillar of the Qin State, Fu Jian's right-hand man. How could he be punished heavily for one-sided words? It's just Linger." He didn't continue, but just wiped the tears on his face with his hands.

Lan Jian said furiously: "This revenge must be avenged!"

Gao Bi said: "Now we have to think long-term and preserve our strength."

Murong Chui raised his head and looked out of the window, and sadly called softly, "Ling'er!"
