The curtain was opened, and the man in the room put down the teacup in his hand, and the room was filled with the scent of jasmine. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"That brother of yours is good. The man who walked in stretched out his legs and showed a comfortable expression, "But your uncle is very dissatisfied with you giving him Youming." β
"Oh?" the man who was sitting at the low table on his knees looked up at the man across from him and asked, "What do you think about Cousin Ol?"
Mellow pulled out the scroll from the bamboo lattice behind him, removed the tea set, and spread the scroll along the tabletop, the scroll was based on sturdy cowhide, and the silkworm cocoon paper was outlined with fine ink, which was a map.
"Lu Guochi Horizontal Plain?" the man muttered, looking at the twelve small dots marked with cinnabar on the paper, "It is not a simple matter for the Chu army to break through the four lines of defense of the Red Horizontal Plain. β
Mellow walked to the side, poured a pot of tea for himself, twisted the teacup and sniffed gently, "The beauty of the mountains and rivers, good tea." β
After the words were interrupted, he took a mellow and light sip, and the fragrance of tea and jasmine was intertwined, like a thin water. The tea leaves in the teacup are tight and thin, the color is black brown and moist, and there is a landscape outlined with ink on the leaves, "I heard that three women entered the royal capital. β
"With the power of the Xuzhou Business Alliance, I guess my cousin already knows who it is. "The man's black hair is like ink, and his fingertips are thin and white.
"Cousin Ziqian, the Xuzhou Business Alliance is no longer what it used to be. Mellow sighed and put down the teacup, "Back then, the "Youming" people who followed the ancestor of the Yue Kingdom fled to the Chu State, and our Xuzhou Business Alliance spent all the money on them. β
Li Ziqian was silent instantly, he knew that what he said was true. At that time, the remnants of Youming's 10,000 remnants fled to Chu to survive, and while the Xuzhou Shangmeng gathered them together, they also spent a lot of time looking for the people of Yue who were in exile in various countries, and trained them to become the successors of the "Youming" warriors.
More than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the current Youming warriors are no longer the previous ones, they were cultivated by the Xuzhou Business Alliance with a large amount of money. Most of the money in the war that occurred in Xuanguo also came from the Xuzhou Business Alliance.
"Is there no one to send from the Xuzhou Business Alliance?" After half a while, Li Ziqian asked slowly, looking at the scroll on the table.
"All the elite people have been sent to Yue and Lu. Mellow nodded, "These people in Dayu are spies who haven't carried out a few missions. β
"In the past, there were two killers from the Killer Gate and a woman named Li Jingxuan. Li Ziqian spoke slowly, as if he knew what else he was asking, so he spoke again: "Those two killers are here to find my virtuous brother who just went to Lu Kingdom, and one of them is his sister." β
Mellow no longer spoke, and there was yellowed tea in the delicate porcelain cup, and he looked down, his hand tapping lightly.
"I don't know what you did when you sent this map today?" Li Ziqian looked at the hand that was tapping on the edge of the window lattice, and he rolled up the scroll with a flick of his hand.
"Did you say the Youming Legion was there?" Mellow narrowed his eyes and whispered.
"No. Li Ziqian stood up and handed the scroll towards Mel He, "You should bring the map of the Pudan grassland." β
Hearing Li Ziqian's words, he smiled. The Red Plains were not easy to break, and the Shang Evil on the Pudan Grassland was caught in the middle of the attack. If the Shang evil is defeated, Guo Ya will take the military horse back to the rear of the Chiping Plain, or cooperate with Jiang Kui to besiege the Chiping Plain, or go directly north to take down the king of Lu, Qufu, no matter which road he chooses, it will be a catastrophe for the Lu State.
He took the scroll handed by Li Ziqian and stared at the other party's face, "If the Chu State can't take the Lu State, it will inevitably be greatly damaged, and there is no need to unite the countries at that time, your uncle wants you to take the tiger and leopard ride away." β
Li Ziqian didn't avoid Mellow Gaze, he stared into the other party's eyes, "I can't take them away." β
Hearing Li Ziqian's answer, mellow and slightly discolored, Youming didn't know how many people to sacrifice on the side of Lu State, and how much role he could play if he brought back Yue Kingdom.
"Cousin Ziqian, don't be rash, our Xuzhou Business Alliance was willing to help Yu Ze at the beginning, just because..."
"Needless to say. Li Ziqian raised his hand and looked at the mellow who turned angry because of the misunderstanding. The corners of his mouth pulled away a trace of helpless bitterness, "We all underestimate my big brother too much." β
Hearing this, his pupils shrank slightly, and his hands clenched into fists, "Why do you say that?"
"A woman came with a prophecy. Li Ziqian's voice was heavy, and he replied with a sigh.
"Prophecy, the words of the constellation master?" Mellow frowned, he didn't believe in fate, life should not be afraid of the heavens, and his hands were clenched into fists to control, "What did she say to you?"
Laughing about the ancient and modern heroes, she said that Yu Gongjian pointed in all directions. Li Ziqian put his hands behind his back, but his eyes were quiet, and he didn't know what he was thinking, "His campaign has just begun now." β
After a long silence, Mellow didn't ask the name of the star master, but took a step further, the saber on his waist was on Li Ziqian's waist, forcing Li Ziqian's eyes, "The people of the battle gate should not be afraid of this, the tiger and leopard riding is very important to you, you should understand?"
Facing the mellow and forced gaze, Li Ziqian sighed inwardly, he knew that he owed too much to the Xuzhou Business Alliance, and everything he had done in the past ten years was to be able to return to Yueguo.
"The tree is floating, and the north wind is thousands of miles of golden ou breaking. The blood of the martyrs, I drew my sword into my homeland. Li Ziqian laughed wistfully a few times, shook his head, took a step back, pulled out his mellow sword, and looked at mellow eyes, "I should do my best to kill back to Yue Kingdom." β
Hearing Li Ziqian's answer, his hand shaking uncontrollably with his fist, he raised his hand tremblingly, stretched out his hand and patted Li Ziqian's shoulder heavily, "Very good, I will go to Yueguo in half a month to see you from the north side, I hope you will not disappoint your uncle." β
Putting down the sword in his hand, Li Ziqian knelt down with his clothes in his hands, and slammed it on the ground, "Say hello to my uncle on my behalf!"
"Go yourself, he waits for you to take her to his sister. Mellow turned around, opened the curtain again, glanced at Li Ziqian, and walked towards Handan Long Road without further ado.
He had barely taken a few steps when he saw a man with a heavy sword passing by him, with a hat, and behind the gray gauze was a scarred face, and his gaze was cold.
"Chivalry. β
Mellow and whispered, he tilted his head and looked at the man who passed by him, and couldn't help but think of the Yanzhou in Li Ziqian's mouth, "Why bother to be born in the Wang family and delay the sword." β
The words were so soft that the man's ears moved. When he heard Mellow's words, and when he turned around, he saw Mellows walking towards the distance.
