Chapter 680 Shocked the promotion of Mr. Shi Tian Dan Tian Heng (2 in 1, supplement)

Chapter 680 Shocked the promotion of Master Shi Tian Dan Tian Heng (two in one, supplement)

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Something bad has happened. Tens of thousands of Qin troops appeared in the north and marched south. According to the news, the Qin general at the head is Li Xin!"

In the palace of King Qi.

Qi Wangjian, Hou Sheng, Tian Xie, Tian Dan, Brid Master and others all gathered together and watched Concubine Li carrying the decoction enter the house accompanied by the maid to take care of the old gentleman. Everyone was silent. When he came down, the old gentleman was poisoned, which surprised everyone.

Suddenly, a eunuch hurried to the study and reported the news from the north to King Qi Jian. In an instant, everyone in the study looked shocked.

The cavalry from the north goes south! ! !

"Qin wants to attack Qi?"

At this moment, even the latter victory was somewhat unexpected. Then he looked at Tian Xie and Gongzi Sheng.

"No! The cavalry has already gone south. I'm afraid they will arrive outside Linzi City before sunset!"

Qi Wangjian was so frightened that his face turned pale. After he came to his senses, he hurriedly stepped forward and took the bamboo slips from the eunuch's hand. After reading it, his eyes were filled with fear and his face was blank.

Secondly, the reason why Qi Wangjian did not send troops back to defend Linzi is that he was probably more afraid of the Qi dignitaries joining forces with the Chu and Wei forces in Linzi City than the Qin army. The previous assassination outside the palace was like a stab in Qi Wangjian's heart. , and the young master's promotion to the court ministers and clan relatives made Qi Wangjian even more wary.

"Qi State, I'm afraid it's going to end!"

In the study room, as Qi Xiang Hou Sheng's words fell, Tian Rong suddenly became furious and looked at Hou Sheng with a ferocious face.

Why did the King of Qi still hesitate when this was clear? Even if the old man could really offer a strategy to retreat the Qin army's cavalry, it would not prevent him from sending troops back to defend Linzi.

"Your Majesty, I believe that since the cavalry has gone south, Qi State should immediately order people to mobilize the troops stationed in Jucheng to relieve the siege of Linzi! And mobilize the Gaotang and Luping garrison to return to Linzi!"

While thinking, he saw that Qi Wangjian hesitated for a moment. With worry, Tian Rong looked at Tian Dan and Tian Heng, and then couldn't help but glance at Young Master Sheng without any trace.

In the end, Tian Xie could only look at Mr. Bri, wondering why Mr. Bri had been silent just now.

Tian Rong realized that once the cavalry arrived outside Linzi City, the defenders in Linzi City alone would not be able to fight the brave and capable cavalry of the Qin army. The Qin army had been fighting for years, and the soldiers were already good at fighting, and the cavalry in the north were even more powerful. The most elite and skilled warriors of the Qin Army participated in the destruction of Han, Zhao, Wei, Yan, and Chu. Facing such an elite army, in order to relieve Linzi's danger, Linzi must have the Jucheng garrison arrive. , before you give it a try.

Tian Rong, who was standing next to Tian Dan, quickly raised his hands to Qi Wangjian and said.

Is this humiliating them for being brainless, or is it humiliating Qi Wangjian for being brainless?

"The master is out of nowhere? No need to panic? Prime Minister! The Qin Army's cavalry is about to arrive in Linzi. Why does the Prime Minister say this?"

Qi Wangjian was shocked and a little confused, but this momentary doubt was quickly replaced by fear.

However, so many people stood up and remonstrated with Qi Wangjian, and then all looked at Qi Wangjian in unison. Just when Gongzi Sheng, Tian Rong and others thought that Qi Wangjian would definitely order people to summon the army, they actually saw Qi Wangjian hesitate. For a moment, he finally looked at Xiang Sheng.

"Your Majesty, I agree with the young master's words!"

At this moment, not to mention Young Master Sheng, Tian Rong and others, even Tian Xie was stunned and full of confusion.

"Father!"

At this time, Young Master Sheng frowned and couldn't help but ask in a pleading manner.

Qi Wangjian said to Hou Sheng, and then looked at the others, asking them to wait here, and then walked towards the room.

Gongzi Sheng, Tian Dan, Tian Heng, Tian Xie and others looked at King Qi who entered the room in astonishment. Then they looked at the elderly Hou Sheng, glanced at them, and followed King Qi Jian into the room.

In the quiet study room.

After hearing Master Bri's account, not to mention Tian Xie, but also Gongzi Sheng, Tian Dan and others all looked dull and looked at each other in disbelief. They never expected that it was because of them that Qi Wangjian resisted sending troops back. Linzi even suspected them.

"Master Bridle, is there any way to crack it?"

Opening his mouth just now will only make Qi Wangjian feel conflicted.

When Master Bri saw Tian Xie's eyes, he didn't know what Tian Xie was thinking. When he saw Young Master Sheng, Tian Rong and others all looking over, he shook his head helplessly.

Young Master Sheng also looked at Xiang Sheng angrily, then looked at Qi Wangjian, and raised his hands to admonish him.

"Sacrifice wine!"

"Why is there no news about the northern station?"

Qi Prime Minister Hou Shengben looked at Gongzi Sheng. After hearing Tian Rong's words, he was keenly aware that Tian Rong's look at Gongzi Sheng made Qi Wangjian's eyes change a little, so he thought about it and quickly looked at Qi Wangjian. said.

King Qi, who had just seen the news, was wondering why there was no news coming from the north. He instinctively glanced at Tian Dan. Apparently King Qi had already suspected that Tian Dan had concealed the news and even deliberately allowed the Qin army to go south...

At this time, Tian Xie also stood up and faced Qi Wangjian, cupping his hands and saying.

If Prince Sheng conspired with the ministers and clan members of the five capitals, he could at least mobilize the troops of the three capitals, and even the four capitals. With the response of the nobles from all over the country, how could the King of Qi not be worried.

"Prime Minister, follow me to the room, visit the old gentleman, and ask him for advice!"

Yesterday at Jixia Academy, they, the masters, insisted on competing and debating with the old man, talking about the theory of governance, the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, and the learning of hundreds of schools of thought. They never thought that the old man was poisoned. Although the King of Qi did not say it, he secretly suspected it. It was the people from their academy who poisoned and persecuted the 'sages'.

"Kings!!"

"Father, I agree with my brother's words! The Qin army has arrived at the city. Regardless of Lord Wu Lie's purpose, he must send troops to defend him!"

"Your Majesty, I think that since Lord Wu Lie came all the way to Zi to meet the King in person, it is obvious that he wants Qin and Qi to coexist. Although the cavalry is going south, I think that the Qin army has no name, so there is no need to panic, Your Majesty! Wait until you see Mr. Wu Lie before we talk again!"

Qin State wants to attack Qi State?

Qi Wangjian had thought about this idea countless times, but after actually facing this incident, Qi Wangjian still couldn't believe it. The panic that hit his face made Qi Wangjian even feel weak in his hands and feet.

After hearing Master Bri's words, Tian Heng and Tian Rong also realized why King Jian of Qi had to send the Qi army back to Linzi before. This was completely because he had lost trust in people and guarded against Linzi.

Obviously at this time, compared to Qi Wangjian who was hung up by Yourou, Tian Rong preferred that the young master Shengneng could step forward at this time and lead the civil and military officials of Qi to resist the Qin army.

Master Bri closed his eyes, sighed, and then explained to Tian Xie and others why he was silent just now.

Tian Rong retorted, obviously he couldn't imagine that Hou Sheng would dare to say such words in front of everyone.

The father is afraid of them and is on guard against them, so he cannot just watch the Qin army succeed, or kill them so that the father can deploy troops with peace of mind.

"I'm afraid it's difficult! Now King Qi, all his thoughts are on the old man, and he relies on him for everything!"

Master Bri looked helplessly at the study, thinking that King Qi Jian actually asked his favorite concubine Li to prepare the medicine himself, and even used the bed where King Qi slept soundly to recuperate for the old man.

The old man's abilities were not yet appreciated by Master Bri, but Master Bri could clearly see the favor of King Qi Jian.

"Since the cavalry is going south, although it is related to Qin and Qi, in the final analysis, it is still related to Lord Wu Lie, Bai Yan. Lord Wu Lie is a favored minister and confidant of Yingzheng, and he is also the chief general of the northern cavalry. As long as Bai Yan orders the withdrawal, Linzi will be in danger. Solvable!"

Master Bri looked at Gongzi Sheng who had a worried face and unwilling and confused eyes, but still gave him some advice.

"Young Master, I heard that Lord Wu Lie is a disciple of Tian Jin, and Tian Jin's tomb has been found. Why don't you immediately order Shi to lead people to move Tian Jin's tomb into Linzi City, and summon all the officials of Qi State in the name of Young Master Qi? , to declare his innocence to the world! Secondly, Qi is near the sea, which is known as a place of immortality. Since Bai Yan is from Qi, he went to the east, which may be related to this. The young master might as well write a letter in person and send it to Qin. State, present it to King Qin Yingzheng, and invite the best magicians from Qi State to go to Xianyang! Show the alliance between Qin and Qi!"

Master Bri said to Young Master Sheng.

Now Qin is eyeing Qi with covetous attention, and Mr. Bri doesn't know whether this method can solve Qi's predicament. But in Mr. Bri's eyes, if Bai Yan really wants to let Qi survive, then these two things are enough to give Bai Yan an excuse. retreat.

In this way, we can buy some time for Qi State.

"Immortal?"

Young Master Sheng nodded when he heard Master Bri's words. Ling Shi had already found Tian Jin's grave before, but when his father saw the old man writing the book, his heart was with the old man and he did not order Ling Shi to go there. Tian Jin's tomb was moved to rectify Tian Jin's name.

"Sir, I have heard a little about this. In Linhai, there is a theory of immortality. Countless magicians in the world have been searching for its traces for decades. Among the many magicians, the most famous one is A warlock named Xu Fu, who was from Langya of Qi State, was rumored to be erudite and proficient in medicine, celestial images, traveling to the sea, etc. He had a high reputation in Langya and had a wide network of people. It was said that Xu Fu was Mr. Guiguzi’s friend. Closed disciple."

After Tian Rong looked at Master Brid and finished speaking, he said to Young Master Sheng.

"Perhaps we can let this person take his disciples to Xianyang!"

After Tian Rong and Tian Ding looked at each other, they suggested to Young Master Sheng.

Gongzi Sheng thought for a while and nodded to Tian Rong. Gongzi Sheng also knew that his clan brother Tian Rong liked to associate with righteous men and knights in the world, and he knew many things among the people better than them.

"Sheng, I would like to ask my clan brother to go to Langya and invite this person!"

Gongzisheng said with his hands raised to Tian Rong.

Upon seeing this, Tian Rong quickly returned the favor and said that he would leave today.

..........................................

Water village.

Bai Yan and Mr. Wei returned to the village and saw Wu with an angry look on his face. After questioning, they found out that Wu had been rejected by Cen Qing.

Looking at Wu's angry look, he didn't understand why Cen Qing would rather take care of the family who sold her to human traffickers than follow him to Linzi and live with him.

Bai Yan didn't speak, but at this moment, a villager suddenly ran over in a hurry and told Bai Yan that someone had gone to his house to cause trouble and even injured his brother.

When Bai Yan heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then his blood surged, and a wave of anger filled his mind, and he hurriedly ran towards his home.

Upon seeing this, Wu and Mr. Wei all looked at each other in surprise, wondering who would go to Bai Yan's house and beat up a lame man.

"Hiss! I heard that these people are all from the city, especially Na Ping's beloved, who is still in the city and knows the policeman!"

"Are they those fierce-looking, burly and strong policemen? I heard that many people who committed crimes in the city were beaten to death with sticks by those people!"

"No!"

Outside the small courtyard, all the villagers who came after hearing the news stood outside, watching with sympathy what happened in the small courtyard. Seeing that Yan's father was not at home, Shui Shou was knocked to the ground, his face covered with pain and he covered his legs. Junhan cried so hard that the pear blossoms were wet with rain. "Sister, why bother staying here? It's your blessing that Yin Shiren likes you. Isn't it good to go to Linzi with my little sister? Why bother living in this shabby place! Sister, don't blame your brother-in-law and the others. It's Shui Shou wanted to drive someone away, and that’s when the dispute broke out.”

Ping'er looked at her eldest sister Yunhan helplessly. Seeing her eldest sister crying, she persuaded her.

Behind him, five men were panting. Apparently the beating just now made them vent their dissatisfaction, and once they started, they would naturally beat them until they vented their anger. Therefore, after breathing for a while, a man didn't wait for Ping'er to finish speaking. Then he stepped forward and raised his foot again, kicking Shui Shou hard on the back.

"Ooooh~ stop fighting!"

Junhan cried and protected Shui Shou, while Shu'er was already frightened and crying.

Fortunately, a man stopped the man who was kicking Shui Shou and gave him a look. After several others vented their anger, they also told the man who kicked Shui Shou not to do anything. After all, it would not be good to make trouble with the government. Although they knew the inspector and could speak. I have said that, but there are still many people at the moment, and when the time comes, the patrol officers who know me will inevitably be dissatisfied and have to pay more money.

"Eldest sister, don't cry. How about going to Linzi with my little sister?"

Ping'er came to Junhan's side step by step, and in a good voice she reached out to help the crying eldest sister.

"Touch her and I'll cut off your hands!"

Suddenly there was a voice, which made Ping'er and several men stunned. They turned their heads to follow the sound, and then they heard the villagers exclaiming the name 'Shui Yan'.

Under the gazes of several other people, a young man with a gloomy face walked into the courtyard step by step with an old man and a young man behind him.

"Who are you? Dare you speak like this?"

Ping's beloved asked Bai Yan with an unkind expression while panting.

However, before Bai Yan could reply, Wu quickly stepped forward and quickly grabbed Bai Yan.

"Brother Zhong, don't do anything! Brother Zhong~!!!"

Shui Shou looked in pain, but when he saw Bai Yan, he ignored the pain and quickly called Bai Yan over.

"Yan, don't hit people, you will easily suffer losses. Wait for the officials to come, and there will be plenty of ways to deal with them when the time comes!"

Wu Ye said to Bai Yan.

Perhaps it was because of looking at Yan Shunyan, or because of the previous experience of meeting in a different place, Wu saw the scene in Xiaoyuan and knew that the Yan family were ordinary villagers with no power and power and could only be bullied, so he decided to stand up and Stand up for Yan.

"Who are you? How dare you make trouble here? Do you know who my brother-in-law is?"

After Wu stopped Bai Yan, he looked at several people with an angry expression and yelled loudly.

"Let me tell you, my brother-in-law is the Zhan family's Zhan Zhao!"

It is said that people with status and background are tough in their words, and Wu is an example. Looking at the appearance of several people wearing common clothes, Wu scolded them unceremoniously.

When they heard that Wu's brother-in-law was Zhan Zhao from the Zhan family, the faces of the several men suddenly changed and they looked at each other in disbelief.

Living in Linzi City, how could they, the scholars, have never heard of this name in the past? Looking at the fog, several of them were completely panicked.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!!! My cousin is the one following Ju Chai in Linzi City!"

Ping's beloved was also the one with the rosiest complexion and the fattest body among the few people. Hearing Wu's words and seeing the surrounding villagers watching the show, he already guessed that something bad was going on.

So he hurriedly stepped forward and told him his background with a flattering look. After seeing Wu frown slightly, he motioned Wu to step closer and speak.

Realizing that Wu did not have any close relationship with this family, Ping's husband whispered that what happened today was a misunderstanding. In the future, we would set up a table of wine at the best restaurant in Linzi and we would not get drunk together until we returned home. One enemy is worse than one more friend. Everyone will need help in the future.

"Brother! Were they all talking just now?"

Bai Yan came to his brother Shui Shou and carefully helped him up.

"it's okay no problem!"

Shui Shou looked at Bai Yan's red eyes, which were full of anger. He was afraid that his brother Zhong would get into trouble. He quickly endured the pain and laughed, indicating that he was not in the way. Looking at the fog in the distance, Shui Shou was full of joy. Fortunately, Wu stood up for them. .

Otherwise, I heard that the other party knew the policemen in the city, so those burly and strong people came here to cause trouble for their family. Shui Shou did not dare to imagine the consequences. My father, mother, and wife would be in trouble.

At this time, Shui Shou only had one thought in his mind, which could solve the matter so that there would be no more trouble in the future. He would be beaten as soon as he was beaten, and he would be able to endure it.

"Brother, I will help you sit in front of the door!"

Bai Yan looked at the dirt on Shui Shou's face. Some places on his face and forehead were a little swollen, and his tied hair was messy.

Bai Yan didn't know how badly his brother had been beaten just now.

Bai Yan, who said nothing more, carefully talked to his brother and sister-in-law Yun Han, helped his brother to stand up, and walked towards the wooden steps in front of the door.

Under the scorching sun, flocks of birds flew over the village. They seemed to be disturbed by something. The people in the small courtyard all looked at the small garden curiously and talked about it.

Hearing Yan's father and Xiao's return behind him, all the villagers looked at them.

And just then.

Far outside the water village, in a dense forest, Ling Shi had already brought a group of petty officials, patrollers, and farmers with tools to the place where Tian Jin was buried.

However, when they arrived, Ling Shi and other Qi officials were all stunned on the spot, looking at the wine bottles and porcelain cups placed in front of the small tombs in shock.

"Sir, it's like the wine from Linxuan Restaurant!"

The chief inspector came to the cemetery, smelled the wine in one of the cups, turned his head and looked at Ling Shi with a puzzled expression.

As the chief inspector of Linzi, in the past, the gentry's children often committed crimes and asked him to ask for help. The wine in Linxuan Restaurant is the most expensive and famous wine in Linzi City. It is known as the gold in wine. He can't be wrong about it. .

But with so many wines placed in front of the tombs, who is so wealthy? Use the wine from Linxuan Restaurant to worship?

"Linxuan?"

Ling Shi also frowned at this time, looking at these tombs with confusion. At this time, birds flew in the sky, one after another, in varying numbers, without stopping.

This made Ling Shi vaguely aware that something was wrong.

Looking at the tomb in front of him, Ling Shi was also puzzled. These corpses were obviously from that water village. A young man named Yan was buried here. Why would someone bring the most expensive wine in Linzi City to worship in this wilderness forest? .

"Sir! Oh no! The Qin Army's cavalry! The Qin Army's cavalry!!!"

Suddenly, a small official behind him ran up in a panic and reported to the order. Just now, he was just outside the forest. When he was convenient, he saw a large number of Qin army cavalry, leading their horses, walking along the path towards the mountains. .

"Going to the mountains?"

Ling Shi was confused when he heard what the clerk said.

The news of the Qin Army's cavalry going south was already known to Shi in Linzi City, so he was just surprised that a few elite soldiers led by the cavalry would arrive so quickly. After hearing the news later, he learned that the Qin Army's cavalry actually followed the path and walked towards the mountains. , which made Shi Cuo stunned.

Why did the Qin Army's cavalry go into the mountains? Didn't the Qin Army want to attack Linzi?

Even if they were to look for the young man, there would only be a few soldiers at most.

Why? So many cavalry...

Suddenly, Ling Shi looked at the cemeteries in front of him and suddenly saw Tian Jin's tomb. He thought that Tian Jin was Qin Daliang's mentor when he built Bai Yan. He thought that the young man who buried Tian Jin before was also named Yan, and looked at the tombs in front of these tombs. Expensive wine, many cavalry went to the mountains and forests.

In an instant, a thought appeared in Ling Shi's mind involuntarily. Ling Shi's pupils widened instantly, his eyes were full of horror, and his expression also changed drastically.

at the same time.

In Linzi City, Tian Dan, Tian Heng, and Gongzi Sheng came to the study while talking.

After learning that the King of Qi was afraid and unwilling to send troops back to defend, but instead asked the old man to speak out and help Qi, the three of them were disappointed and could only discuss privately how to persuade Bai Yan when Bai Yan came back from the east.

During the conversation, as time passed by, from the civil and military officials to the Linzi gentry, the three of them wanted to use as much power as possible.

At this time, Gongzi Sheng suddenly noticed that in addition to numerous bamboo slips and pens and ink on the wooden table where affairs were being processed in the distance, there was also a piece of cloth with portraits painted on it. Although it was facing the other side and still some distance away, Gongzi Sheng still It was vaguely possible to see that the person in the painting was a young man.

"Ah! That was before..."

Tian Heng saw Gongzi Sheng's doubts, so he smiled and told Gongzi Sheng what happened to Bo Gu and the origin of this piece of cloth.

"Is there anything else going on?"

Young Master Sheng looked surprised.

Tian Heng nodded helplessly, and while talking to Young Master Sheng, they used all their contacts to search for a long time, but there was no news about Bai Yan's origin. He got up and went to the wooden table and picked up the cloth.

And as the words fell, when Tian Heng saw the portrait on the cloth, he was completely stunned on the spot, with a look of astonishment on his face.

Tian Heng's appearance instantly made Gongzi Sheng and Tian Dan frown.

Before the two of them could ask, they saw Tian Heng running over in a panic, as if something big had happened, and placed the portrait directly in front of the two of them.

At this time, Tian Dan and Gongzi Sheng could see clearly that the young man in the portrait looked like Bai Yan.

For a moment, the three of them all looked blank and looked at each other in disbelief. Then they thought of something and all looked shocked.

Tian Dan stood up immediately and looked at Young Master Sheng and Tian Heng in surprise and horror.

"The young man who buried Tian Jin outside the city is Bai Yan!!!"

Tian Dan said with a look of enlightenment, finally understanding why Bai Yan gave such a heavy reward to the official in Bogu.

It turns out that the person saved by the former doorman was Bai Yan’s brother! ! !
