At this time, the king of Qin sent someone to the small building of Youxi to summon Qu Nian into the palace. Because of the urgency of the situation, he did not send the eunuch to summon, because the eunuch walked like a girl, twisting and pinching, so he sent a guard to summon, under special circumstances, the palace can also ride a horse, so he came and went in a hurry, and came back in less than a stick of incense.

After the guard entered the hall, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the prince is not in Wutong Lane!"

King Qin was stunned and said, "Not in Wutong Lane?"

The guard said: "According to the guard on duty at Childe's house, Childe just came back for a trip, and then left in a hurry on horseback!"

King Qin exclaimed: "Rode a horse and left in a hurry, where did you go?"

The guard said, "My subordinates don't know!"

King Qin was taken aback and said, "This bastard can't run away, right?" This guy has the most effort to get oil on the soles of his feet, and eighty percent of them have run away." This bastard is truly ruthless and unjust. ”

The guard was too frightened to squeak.

Wan Ting said: "Don't worry, the king can rest assured, I have ordered the gate of Xianyang to be closed, and the prince will not be able to escape!"

King Qin's spirits perked up, so he pointed at him and said, "Then you hurry up and find it, dig three feet into the ground to find out this bastard!"

Wan Ting answered, then retreated, turned over his horse, and galloped away outside the palace! He thought in his heart that if Qu Nian really planned to escape, now that there were enemies in the south, north, and west of Xianyang, he would definitely run to the east, so after leaving the palace gate, he hurriedly galloped towards the east city gate.

Qu Nian rushed to the gate of the east city in a hurry, but the gate was already closed, and there were two rows of guards standing at the gate of the city, and when someone approached, they would shout: "You are not allowed to go out of the city today!

Qu Nian didn't care about this, and drove the horse over.

After all, Qu Nian has been here for a month, and he often wanders on the streets, word of mouth, many people know him, including these guards, so when they saw Qu Nian coming over, these people not only did not dare to scold, but saluted one after another: "I've seen Gongzi!"

Qu Nian said: "What kind of city gate is closed in broad daylight?

At this time, a doorman came out and replied, "Qi Yu Gongzi, this is an order from General Wan. ”

Qu Nian said: "Wan Ting?"

The doorman replied, "Yes!"

Qu Nian said: "Wan Ting is really a psychopath, the enemy hasn't come over yet, why did you close the city gate early?"

The doorman said, "Then the subordinates don't know!"

Qu Nian said: "Then you open the city gate, I'll go out for a walk, the city is suffocated!"

The doorman replied: "Gongzi forgives his sins, General Wan has an order, and no one can go out of the city without his permission!"

Qu Nian said angrily: "Bold! Is it Wan Ting Da or Ben Gongzi is big? If Ben Gongzi wants to go out of the city, you dare to stop him? Is it that you dare to stop King Qin from leaving the city?"

The doorman was startled, his body trembled a little, and said, "Childe, the subordinates are just acting on orders, please don't embarrass the subordinates!"

At this time, Qu Nian stretched out his hand and pulled out the butcher's sword from Chu Sandang's hand, put it on the doorman's neck, and said coldly: "Give you one last chance, can't you open this city gate?" ”

The doorman's neck touched the cold blade, and he suddenly shook his spirit, swallowing two mouthfuls of saliva vigorously, not daring to refuse Qu Nian's request again!

Qu Nian took the sword back, handed it to Chu Sandang, and said, "That's right!

A few officers and soldiers ran over, removed the stout deadbolt from the door, and then a few people worked together to open the heavy door with a heavy sound!

As soon as Qu Nian saw that the gate was opened, he beckoned, and several people walked towards the gate!

When he was about to approach the crack in the door, he suddenly heard a hurried sound of horses' hooves behind him, and Qu Nian turned his head to see that it was Wan Ting leading dozens of people to rush over!

Qu Nian estimated that this guy was looking for him, so he was about to speed up and squeeze out through the crack in the door, but he didn't expect Wan Ting to shout: "Close the city gate-"

The sound was loud and deep, and the rumbling of horses' hooves could not be hidden.

Because those officers and soldiers were holding on to the door, as soon as they heard this, they hurriedly pushed hard, and closed the crack of the door, almost clamping Qu Nian's horse's head.

Qu Nian now intimidated these guys again, it was too late, so he could only turn around extremely unwillingly.

In the gap between turning around, Wan Ting had already rushed in front of him, and Le Ma stopped.

The reason why Qu Nian was able to let Wan Ting catch up was that he had just gone shopping too far and was delayed when he walked home.

Qu Nian looked displeased and said, "General Wan, what do you mean?"

Wan Ting hugged his fist and said, "Childe, the king summons Gongzi into the palace!"

Qu Nian said: "I'm in a depressed mood, I'm going to walk around the city now, and then enter the palace." ”

Wan Ting said: "Childe, the military situation is urgent, and the general will not be able to agree to your request!"

Qu Nian said angrily: "The military situation is urgently related to my? Wan Ting, I picked you up single-handedly, except for inviting me to a meal, this is how you repay me? You are a white-eyed wolf in this way, you know?"

Wan Ting said: "Childe said that I am a white-eyed wolf, then I am a white-eyed wolf, and I don't have any black eyes." I am also acting on orders, I hope that Gongzi will forgive me, and when this matter is over, I will make amends to Gongzi. ”

Qu Nian said: "This matter can't be passed, the Qin State is going to die, do you have any use in making amends?"

Wan Ting said: "Didn't Childe say that he would live and die with Xianyang?"

Qu Nian said: "Yes, I said it! I want to live and die with Xianyang, not with you, after you die, Xianyang will still live well, and even more prosperous." ”

Wan Ting said: "It doesn't matter if you live or die, but Gongzi must go back with me." ”

Qu Nian pointed at him, gritted his teeth and said: "I really lifted a stone to shoot myself in the foot, so I would recommend you as a guy, there is no human touch, you repay virtue with resentment, and you have to pull me as a cushion when you die, shameful!"

Wan Ting said: "Don't worry, Childe, I will protect Childe to the death." ”

Qu Nian said: "If you really want to protect me, letting me go is the greatest protection." ”

Wan Ting said: "Childe forgive the sin, this will not work!Childe, the king is waiting anxiously in the palace, hurry up and go back to the palace with me!"

Qu Nian glared at him, turned his head to look at Chu Sandang and Cicada Xi, and said, "You have also seen it, my father is too enthusiastic, he is reluctant to let me leave at all, he must take me to the funeral with him, then you go back to Youxi Xiaozhu first! I'll go to the palace to have a look." ”

Cicada Xi said, "Do you need us to accompany you?"

Qu Nian said: "It's useless for you to accompany me! Don't worry! After all, it's my father, it's just a trip home, although there is no warmth in this home, but as you said, it's a bit unbearable to leave that bad old man alone!"

Cicada Xi nodded and said, "That's okay! Then we'll wait for you in the dark night!"

Qu Nian looked at Wan Ting and said, "Then let's go!"

Wan Ting nodded and said, "Childe, please!"

Because there was a horse under the crotch, after a while, they arrived at the palace, and when they arrived at the palace gate, dozens of subordinates stayed outside the palace, but the two of them did not get off the horse, and rode directly into the palace and went straight to the Shuide Palace!

Qu Nian climbed up the tall steps, but saw Ma Gongcheng standing under the eaves of the corridor in the distance, with his hands crossed in front of his abdomen, like a sculpture, looking at the southwest sky in a daze! After all, the military aircraft was being discussed in the Shuide Palace, and it was not suitable for eunuchs to listen!

Qu Nian shouted and said, "Grandpa Ma, help me make a pot of tea, I'm dying of thirst!"

Ma Gonggong turned his head to look at him, and responded very quickly, saying, "The slave is going to soak!"

Qu Nian pushed open the door of the Shuide Palace, saw dozens of people standing inside, and when he entered the door, they all drifted their eyes over!

Qu Nian was quite surprised, he was a little uncomfortable, he smiled, and said, "There are so many people! ”

King Qin snorted coldly and said, "You are nervous! I heard that you ran away?"

Qu Nian said: "How is this possible? The country is in danger, and it is the responsibility of the husband, not to mention that I am the son of the Qin State, and I should set an example, at a critical juncture of the country's life and death, how can I abandon the country's righteousness and endure humiliation and steal my life? Your son cannot do such beastly acts! I swear to live and die with Xianyang." ”

Wan Ting followed behind him, stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this son to lie so righteously, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, if he hadn't caught him back with his own hands, he would have almost believed it, and he would never know the true meaning of his sentence "swear to live and die with Xianyang"!

After all, King Qin didn't know that he was caught in the process of escaping, and he was secretly moved in his heart, and said, "It's very good that you have this awareness! But I heard that you just gloated on the street?"

Qu Nian turned his head to look at Wan Ting and said, "You said I was gloating?"

Wan Ting hurriedly said: "No!"

Qu Nian said: "That's it, how can I gloat? I am a citizen of Great Qin, and I am the son of Great Qin, and I share the glory and disgrace with Great Qin." I can only empathize with my father, how can I gloat? Since I heard the news, I have been sad until now, and I have not eaten lunch, and I am very sad. ”

Wan Ting said in his heart, you didn't eat lunch because you were busy running for your life, right? But he didn't say it.

King Qin said: "It's best if you understand this truth." He sighed again and said, "I know that I didn't listen to your opinion to cause today's disaster, and you hate me in your heart, but it's too late to say anything." Your father has high hopes for you, and you should also take responsibility, you should abandon your previous suspicions, and give advice to your father and the Qin State. ”

Qu Nian walked over and said with a smile: "What my father said, after all, we are father and son, and when I say this, I will see the outside, people are not sages, who can do nothing? Not to mention that my father is thinking about the overall situation and doesn't want to be ruined, I can also understand." It is a blessing for the people of the Qin State to have a benevolent and virtuous king like their father, and it is a blessing for the world!"
