Chapter 196: I can't bear it
Qu Nian actually didn't want them to protect him at all, but he knew that this was the duty of these people, just to keep an eye on him and prevent him from escaping, even if he lost his temper, it was useless.
So he ignored him anymore, and led Chu Sandang and Bai Xiaoya towards the burial water set, followed by dozens of Qi State guards who were watching him.
Linzi City, which is usually bustling and bustling, has now become extremely deserted, and even a few people can not be seen on Ende Street, a cold wind blows, rolling up a few yellow leaves, scurrying on the street, looking extremely cold.
The sky was cloudy, and it looked like it was about to snow.
"Is there really going to be a war?"
This question suddenly popped up in Qu Nian's heart. Linzi City gave him the feeling that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings.
When it came to the funeral water set, the usually bustling funeral water set was also deserted, and Qu Nian went directly to the Qianzhuang of the Thousand Nations Chamber of Commerce.
The shopkeeper inside knew that he was coming, so when he saw him enter the door, he got up and greeted him, saw that there was someone behind him, and deliberately said: "Qin Gongzi is good, I don't know if Qin Gongzi is taking money or saving money?"
Qin Gongzi said: "Take the money!"
The shopkeeper said, "Then Prince Qin, please come with me." β
Qu Nian was just about to go to the backyard with him, and dozens of Qi State guards behind him followed, Qu Nian turned his head and showed impatience, and said, "Why are you following me when I go to get money?"
One of the guards said, "Can't you withdraw money at the counter outside?"
Qu Nian pointed at him, gritted his teeth, and said: "Counter? You talk about the counter for rich people like me? The counter is for you poor people! We rich people have a special VIP living room, which is VIP, do you know? You don't understand the world of rich people, do you know? We are talking about hundreds of thousands of two businesses, can we easily hear it to you poor ghosts? I tell you, don't be shameless, and when I marry your princess in the future, I will kill you all one by one." β
Those guards seemed to eat this set, and when they saw him getting angry, they didn't dare to follow too closely, so one of them said, "Okay, then we'll wait for Qin Gongzi outside!"
Qu Nian said: "It's about the same. β
The guards retreated to the outside of the house, but did not wait at the door, for fear that Qu Nian would slip away from other places, so some jumped onto the roof, some jumped onto the courtyard wall, and some guarded the back door, and looked at the whole money house to death.
When Qu Nian came to the backyard, the shopkeeper led him to the door of a room, knocked lightly, and whispered: "Big shopkeeper, Gongzi Qin is here!"
As soon as the words fell, the door creaked open, and Yu Shu stood at the door, looked at Qu Nian and said, "Qin Gongzi, please come in!"
Qu Nian and the three of them walked in, and Yu Shu closed the door with his hand.
There are only two people in the room, Cicada Xi and Yushu, and there is a round table in the middle, Cicada Xi is sitting at the table, and when she sees him enter the door, she smiles.
Qu Nian smiled, sat down opposite her, and said, "What is the matter with Miss Cicada Xi looking for me?
Cicada Xi was used to his frivolity, but her face was still slightly red, and she said: "I invited you over to hand over Fei Fei to you, but he is not a thing, he is a living person, it is not very convenient, otherwise I will send him to the Liuhua Pavilion Station." β
Qu Nian said: "The word not something is used very well. So where is he now?"
As soon as the words fell, I heard Fei Fei's voice from the closet on the side, and when Qu Nian turned his head, the door of the wardrobe had been pushed open, and Fei Fei walked out.
Qu Nian was stunned: "Why are you hiding in the closet in the daytime?"
Fei Fei walked over, gave him a blank look, and said, "Do you think I want to hide in the closet? Now no matter day or night, I don't have any sense of security outside, after all, everyone knows me, and when I am seen by others, I will be finished!"
Qu Nian said: "Fortunately, I came over for this matter, if Cicada Xi's fiancΓ© came over and saw you hiding in your closet, I told you, then you can't wash it when you jump into the Yellow River, and people can beat you to death." β
Fei Fei said angrily: "Are you embarrassed to say? I only know now that you are too unrighteous, I risked my life to rescue you, and it was just a matter of you not sending a pennant to thank me, and you actually left me here and ignored me, it was too uninteresting." β
Qu Nian said: "What do you mean to save me out? Isn't saving me just to save yourself? I thought you were bored in my body, so I put you here to let the wind go, why don't you know what to do?"
Fei Fei said: "The problem is that I don't have a sense of security when I stay outside, especially here is Linzi, I stay in the house every day, and I don't dare to show my head, for fear of being seen. It's more comfortable to stay in your body, in that dark and closed environment, there is no dangerous breath, although it is a little darker, but it is very comfortable, eat very comfortably, and sleep very steadily. β
Qu Nian said: "Okay then." If you want to come with me, you can follow me, but I'm telling you, I'm in danger right now. β
Fei Fei said: "Although your danger is equal to my danger, it is much better than me being in danger alone! Anyway, I am already a broken jar now, it doesn't matter!"
Qu Nian said: "That's whatever you want." He turned his head and looked at Cicada Xi and said, "Did you ask me to come here just to take this thing?"
Cicada Xi nodded and said, "Originally, I wasn't in a hurry, but I was leaving Linzi today, so I was in a hurry to hand him over to you." β
Qu Nian exclaimed: "Where to leave Linzi?"
Cicada Xi said: "Have you heard about the things outside? The Six Nations Alliance is about to attack the Qi State!"
Qu Nian nodded and said, "I've heard a little bit, but it's all the same thing, not too detailed, what's the matter?"
Cicada Xi said: "That's not true, but it's already tense." So I'm going to go to Wuji Mountain and arrange the soldiers of the Song Kingdom there, as you said, this is a good opportunity for me to restore the Song Kingdom, so we have to be prepared. β
Qu Nian said in his heart, then you have to rescue me out and leave! Leave me here, isn't it a dead end now that the army is in chaos?
But when the words came to his mouth, he was embarrassed to say it, after all, people are not related to him, not to mention that there are important things to do, as a man, this kind of thing is really difficult to say. And he also knew that Cicada Xi had tried his best, and he hadn't gotten him out of Linzi for so many days, even if she stayed now, it would be useless. Then he said, "Do you want to leave today?"
Cicada Xi nodded and said, "Yes, by the way, do you have a way to leave Linzi?"
Qu Nian said in his heart, there is a hammer method, and he said: "You can go with confidence." I'm fine. β
Cicada Xi didn't know that he was reckless, in her mind, Qu Nian was an extremely smart person, thinking that day in the ghost city of Yinxu, thousands of people chased and killed him, but he was indifferently wiped out, not to mention that he is now free to move, even the prison of the Criminal Department of Qi State can't trap him, such a person, it is estimated that Longtan Tiger's Den can't be trapped, and if he wants to leave Linzi, it is as easy as a hand. The reason why he didn't leave is probably just because he doesn't want to leave for the time being, maybe he still thinks about his heaven and earth. So some time ago, Qu Nian asked her to find a way to save him, but she thought Qu Nian was joking, and she didn't pay attention to it at all.
In fact, where can she understand the bitterness in Qu Nian's heart, he can't run away if he wants to.
Cicada Xi said at this time: "It's okay." However, you also have to leave Linzi as soon as possible, if there is really a fight, it will be very unfavorable to you. β
Qu Nian smiled: "I know, you can go with confidence, I'm fine." β
Cicada Xi likes to see him slap his swollen face and become fat, as if the sky is falling, he won't take it to heart and treat it indifferently.
It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, Qu Nian stood up at this time, took Fei Fei with him, and left Qianzhuang, and the dozens of guards followed.
Qu Nian looked at the empty street, his heart became more and more depressed, listening to Cicada Xi say this, it seems that the rumors outside are true, there is really going to be a war, and Qin Guo has also participated in the war, this is really not good news for him, if he doesn't want to get out of Linzi again, he may really die here!
If he had known that the Qi State would regard him so strictly, he would not have instigated He Min to write a letter to the Qin State, and even if he wrote a letter, he would have told the Qin State that the Eye of Heaven obtained by the Qi State was fake, so that the Qin State would have no reason to send troops, so he would not be in danger for the time being.
Now that I think about it, this pit was dug by myself, not only pit Qi Guo, but also pit him himself.
It's just that what he can't understand is that since the Qin State has already sent troops, why doesn't the Qi State take out anger on him?
In fact, what he didn't know was that King Qi just wanted to fight for it.
When the king of Qi heard that the six countries were really coming together, he couldn't help but panic, couldn't eat, couldn't sleep well, and overnight, his hair turned white several times. I finally understood that he led the Five Kingdoms of Shandong to attack Qin State, and the mood of Qin State at that time! No wonder King Qin was very bright back then, and it was not ambiguous at all to cede land and pay compensation and send protons. If he is asked to cut some land and pay some money now, he will not hesitate at all.
If it's just the five kingdoms of Shandong, if you fight to the death, at least you can burn all the jade, but the hateful thing is that the Qin State also participated in the war, so that the Qi State is not even qualified to burn the jade. Speaking from the heart, compared to the betrayal of his younger brother, he hated Qin Guo's enemies even more, because he felt that Qin Guo was too out of the road, obviously he had already obtained the storage ring and Fei Fei, and even had obtained the real Eye of Heaven, and he must have known that Qi Guo did not have the Eye of Heaven in his hands, but Qin Guo got cheap and behaved, pretending to be innocent, and stabbing him in the back and falling into the well. Qin Guo really doesn't have a good thing, including that Qin proton, he is blind, and he even wants to marry his daughter to him, brute!
But even if he hated it in his heart, under such a disparity in strength, he was unwilling to fight this battle, he had no confidence at all, and discussed with the ministers for a long time, but he didn't discuss a good countermeasure, and some ministers even said that since Qi Guo has obtained the five heavenly eyes, it is better to divide them into four, and it is better to be happy alone than to be happy.
As soon as the king of Qi heard this sentence, "It is better to be happy alone than to be happy with all", he was angry, and he didn't fight in one place, isn't this what the Qin envoy said in the main hall that day? Now this guy repeats it again, it is simply to sprinkle salt on his wounds, but it is a pity that now that the great enemy is present, he must calm the people's hearts, otherwise he will definitely pull this minister out and whip the corpse.
At this time, he thought of his younger brother Lingyangjun again, although he was the culprit, and the disaster of Qi was caused by him, but he also had to admit that this guy's brain was still okay, and he would always think of some unexpected tricks, but it was a pity that Lingyangjun was now inspecting the border on his behalf, and he had not come back, which made him very anxious, and even suspected that his younger brother had also defected, although he would not defect to the enemy, but in this case, it was still possible to escape.
Now the front line is tense, although there is no good way to deal with the enemy, but as the king of a country, he must make a decision immediately, no matter whether there is a way, he has to take action, after all, national diplomacy is not a quarrel between two women, no matter how fierce you jump, I can ignore you and be angry with you!
Since he didn't dare to fight, he could only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and in the mildest way, he first sent an envoy to the coalition camp to sue for peace. Although he had personally explained to the envoys of the Three Kingdoms last time, he did not explain it clearly, the other party just didn't believe that he didn't have the eyes of heaven, and now in retrospect, the envoys of the other party were sharp and sharp, and the reason why he didn't explain clearly may be because his mouth was not smart enough, and many central ideas were not able to express clearly.
In order to be able to express his central idea clearly, he personally selected a sharp-tongued envoy, and told the envoy his central idea again, and the envoy listened to it, patted his chest and assured that this was a piece of cake, so that the king of Qi could relax his mind, as long as he sent an envoy to the coalition army camp, he would definitely be able to fight the group of Confucians, move it with affection, know it with reason, and let the coalition army retreat without spending a single soldier.
The King of Qi was overjoyed, who said that empty talk would lead to mislead the country? He only recently discovered that empty talk is very prosperous! No wonder there is a proverb that says that a soft tongue can break bones, and it is really true that such a talent can be worth a million male teachers alone!
In addition to being happy, the king of Qi killed chickens and sheep, and personally performed for this envoy!
The envoy was also full of ambition, and after eating the chicken and sheep, he went on the road, and the king of Qi sent him outside the city gate.
Originally, the king of Qi was just holding the attitude of a dead horse as a live horse doctor, just trying his luck, but as a result, this envoy was really angry, and his ability was completely beyond the expectations of the king of Qi.
Now for the coalition forces, people have finally gathered a million men and horses, and they are here to fight, not to listen to your chirps. Originally, the coalition army was pressing, and they were going to wait for a few days, first scare the King of Qi, if the King of Qi took the initiative to hand over the Eye of Heaven, they would not fight, after all, it was the former boss, and they didn't want to make too much trouble, but the boss was unconscious, and he also had a fluke mentality, and sent such a thing to fool them, that's right, as long as the King of Qi doesn't admit that there is an eye of heaven now, it is dishonest and deliberately teasing them.
Therefore, after the coalition army cut down the envoys of the Qi State, they immediately made a decision to pull out the camp to attack the cities of the Qi State, more than one million soldiers and horses are like the army of tigers and wolves, and there is no need to arrange troops at all, nor do they need to pay attention to the art of war.
The territory of the Qi State outside the Luzon Pass was lost.
In fact, it was also the land of the former Song Kingdom.
