Chapter 456: The Red Face of the Past
The timing of Cheng Yue's arrival in Weihai, the capital of Qi State, was not right, just in time for the Fish Demon Clan in the sea to make a rebellion, causing a monstrous tsunami, which wanted to flood Weihai and let millions of Qi people die in the belly of the fish!
Everyone in Qi is like a great enemy, in order to defend the capital, the elites of the major cultivation sects have come out, and there are as many as four earth immortals, and they have joined forces to support a huge enchantment on the coast!
Seeing this posture, Cheng Yue wanted to turn around and leave, the timing of the Fish Demon Clan's rebellion was too suitable, even if he didn't make trouble, Qi Guo would not have the strength to take care of the affairs of Jin State at this time. However, when he was wandering around, he heard the people in the market talking that a few days ago, a Jin delegation suddenly came to Qi Capital and asked Qi to send an earth immortal to rescue. The king of Qi did not agree at first, but after the envoy of the Jin State begged in every possible way and promised to cede thousands of miles of land to the King of Qi, the King of Qi was still tempted, and at this time he was sending officials to negotiate with the envoy of the Jin State, because the situation was urgent, I am afraid that it will not be long before there will be results!
"This negotiation must be sabotage!" Cheng Yue immediately made up his mind.
After returning to the inn where he was temporarily staying, Cheng Yue hid until the middle of the night, changed into a black outfit, covered his cheeks, and then came to the outside world, he jumped high and low like a ghost, and sneaked to the square in the center of the city in a blink of an eye.
Because of the chaos of the fish demon clan, Weihai's security is much stricter, even in the middle of the night, you can see a lot of patrolling soldiers, Cheng Yue carefully avoided these people, and finally came to the bell tower, took out an ink pen, and quickly drew a lot of codes on the wall of the bell tower.
At noon the next day, as Cheng Yue expected, a man who looked like a servant of a large family came to the inn and asked to see him by name.
Cheng Yue asked the shopkeeper to bring the person to him, and asked with a generous smile: "Did your master let you come?"
The man nodded humbly and politely: "Exactly, my master asked my son to go and talk about it." ”
"Lead the way in front of the head. Cheng Yue didn't delay at all, and immediately ordered.
"Okay. ”
The servant said yes and turned and went out.
Cheng Yue followed the servant out and found that a rather luxurious carriage had been parked outside, so he smiled and rode straight up.
More than an hour later, the servant drove Cheng Yue out of Weihai City and came to a remote manor outside the city.
The carriage carried Cheng Yue through the back door, and finally stopped in front of a house that looked like a warehouse.
Here, Cheng Yue smelled a salty smell.
"Is it a salt storehouse?" Cheng Yue muttered to himself.
At this moment, a female voice came from outside the carriage: "Zhao Lan greets the lord!"
Cheng Yue was startled, and hurriedly pushed the car door and jumped out.
Immediately, a beautiful woman dressed in gorgeous clothes appeared in front of Cheng Yue.
"Lan'er, I haven't seen you for a few years, it's always been good?" Cheng Yue looked at the woman for a while, and finally asked with a warm smile.
The woman smiled shyly and said: "I am worried about the lord, Zhao Lan is fine, Yu Xiang is also very good, and now we have purchased a lot of family business according to the salt drying technology taught by the lord, and we are currently in the process of breaking into the upper class society of Qi country, presumably after three or five years, the two of us will be able to have a small reputation in Qi country!"
Yu Xiang and Zhao Lan are one of the twelve women that Cheng Yue bought back in the Sifang Auction House, they were all infused with a lot of innovative ideas by Cheng Yue in the years they were by Cheng Yue's side, and taught a lot of money-making business, and won over the wrists of the powerful.
"Hmm. Cheng Yue was very satisfied, "What about Yu Xiang?"
Zhao Lan replied: "Xiang'er went to open a salt shop in other places." ”
"That's right. Cheng Yue replied casually, although it was a pity that he couldn't see Yu Xiang, it was not a big deal.
Zhao Lan looked at Cheng Yue deeply, hesitated for a moment, but still made up his mind, and said: "The lord is here this time, isn't he going to make a big move?" With all due respect to Zhao Lan, it can't be done at the moment, we have just gained a firm foothold in the Qi country, and our power has not yet developed.
Seeing that the other party had misunderstood, Cheng Yue waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "You don't have to worry about this, I'm not here to make King Qi rebel this time." ”
After that, Cheng Yue carefully inquired with Zhao Lan about the situation of the Qi government and the opposition, especially the negotiations between Qi and Jin in recent days.
Zhao Lan knew everything, said everything, said everything she knew, and asked at the end: "Lord, what are you asking for?"
Cheng Yue had nothing to hide from these henchmen, and immediately made plans and explanations for cutting off Jin's foreign aid.
"Is that so?" Zhao Lan nodded slightly, "Does the lord have a plan of action now?"
Cheng Yue said: "I have a little idea, I plan to assassinate the Jin State Mission, so that Qi and Jin will turn against each other!"
Zhao Lan was shocked: "No!"
Cheng Yue was a little confused: "Why is this?"
"My lord. Zhao Lan smiled bitterly and said: "Right now, the Jin Kingdom is in danger, you kill the Jin State Mission, although it can make Qi and Jin turn against each other for a while, but the Qi State is not without smart people, and it must be able to see that this is someone deliberately sabotage, wanting to kill the Jin Kingdom." In this way, in order to prevent the Jin Kingdom from really perishing, the Qi State will definitely take the initiative to repair relations with the Jin Kingdom and send the Earth Immortals to rescue it!"
Cheng Yue nodded again and again when he heard this: "Lan'er, you're right, I'm confused for a while." Then Elan'er said, what should I do?"
Zhao Lan lowered her head, took a few steps on the spot, and suddenly raised her head and exclaimed: "There is!"
"Will the plan be released?" Cheng Yue hurriedly asked.
Zhao Lan smiled, came to Cheng Yue, and said with glowing eyes: "But you can start on the king of Qi!"
……
After listening to Zhao Lan's plan, Cheng Yue was very happy, and wanted to implement it immediately, but was stopped by Zhao Lan.
"Lan'er, do you have anything else?" asked Cheng Yue curiously.
Zhao Lan's face was flushed, and she said in a voice like a mosquito: "Lord, Lan'er knows that she has no chance to stay with her lord, but ...... However, if there are only a few moments of good memories, Lan'er still wants to stay, and I hope that the lord will have mercy and satisfy Lan'er's brazen wish. ”
Cheng Yue was stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "What is brazen? Lan'er's heart, can I not understand it? It's just that it's really inconvenient here......
As he spoke, he gestured to his surroundings.
Zhao Lan was very happy when she saw that Cheng Yue had no intention of refusing, and took Cheng Yue's hand and said, "My lord, come with me." ”
Cheng Yue happily obeyed.
Zhao Lan took Cheng Yue out of the warehouse area and came to a gorgeous house in the manor, and then closed the door.
Cheng Yue didn't hesitate anymore, picked up Zhao Lan from his waist, and walked towards the bed in the house.
……
After a few clouds and rains, Zhao Lan was very tired and fell asleep on Cheng Yue's chest. Cheng Yue waited until Zhao Lan fell asleep before getting up, getting dressed, and leaving silently.
What Cheng Yue didn't know was that after he walked out of the door, Zhao Lan's closed eyes left two lines of tears.
"Take care, lord!
……
Cheng Yue changed his appearance and returned to Weihai City, and as soon as Fang arrived at the city gate, he showed his true face and reported his identity to the defenders of Qi State.
Hearing that the notorious little devil king was coming, the generals guarding the city did not dare to be arbitrary, and hurriedly sent the news to the palace of King Qi.
"What? Cheng Yue's demon is coming to my Qi country?" The King of Qi was shocked when he heard the news, and suddenly got up from the throne.
"King, do you want to see or kill directly?"
On the main hall, a Taoist with an immortal wind and an extraordinary aura asked out loud, at this moment, above the main hall, the aura is not weaker than this person, and there are three people, hearing this question, the three of them all turned their eyes to King Qi.
King Qi hesitated, see, or kill? It's still a question!
