Chapter 274: Daddy
Ji Fa said goodbye to his father and returned to his residence, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was wrong, the other brothers had become princes, only he accompanied his father in the Shang country to live a life of superficial poverty, in order to leave a good impression on the people here, their father and son did not even dare to buy meat openly, and they were really hungry and let the guards quietly buy it back.

Is this the life of a prince?
Ji Fa was depressed, in fact, he shouldn't have come to Chaoge instead of his eldest brother, he thought that he would get the moon first near the water, and only by approaching his father everywhere could he please him and let the old man pass on the title to him.
How do you know that people are not as good as heaven, the imperial court suddenly issued a decree of tui'en, and my father couldn't control his family far away in the capital, and dozens of princes popped up in Xiqi overnight!
He also heard that these princes were actually recognized by the imperial court, although most of them were only small viscounts, but they were indeed vassal states!
Ji Fa's heart is dripping blood, should I really sit and wait for death in this little Jinli City?
"No, I've already lost at the starting line, and I must not be indifferent anymore!" inspired his determination to quietly escape from Yuli City and return to Xiqi!
As the second son of Xibohou, he knows all the secrets of Xiqi clearly, and there are also secret agents of Xiqi in Yili City.
Blacksmith Zhou usually makes a living by striking iron, and Xibohou only moved over after entering Yili City, although this guy has no intersection with Ji Chang, and he doesn't say hello when he meets on the street, but he is indeed a person from Xiqi.
Raising soldiers for a thousand days is used for a while, and now is the time for him to repay my Ji family!
In the dead of night, he quietly came to the blacksmith's shop. Knock on the door and go straight inside.
"Second son, why are you here?" Blacksmith Zhou let Ji Fa into the shop.
He thought that his accomplice came to explain the task, but how did he know that it was the second son who came in.
Ji Fa's status is noble, how dare Blacksmith Zhou slack off, he asked the second son to sit down respectfully: "I don't know what the second son is here, if you have something to do, just give up, go to the soup and go to the fire and never give up!"
Blacksmith Zhou is doing the job of finding out the news, and the second son has always been favored by Xibohou, how can he not know about this little thing?
"Blacksmith Zhou, I really have something to do for you, the imperial court's Tui En order caught Xiqi off guard, and now the entire Western Zhou is stirred up in a miasma, Turbo wants to go back as soon as possible to assist the eldest brother to quell the civil strife, and I hope you can send me out of Yili City!"
Ji Fa made it clear that he had only been to the Shang Kingdom a few times, and no one would know him as long as he was out of the city. When the time comes, the sky is high and the birds will fly, the sea will be wide and the fish will leap, and when you return to Xiqi, you will definitely be able to establish a hegemony!
"Second son, do you want to quietly go back to the city, does the Hou Ye know about this?" Zhou Blacksmith was silent, if the second son fled the imperial court, he would definitely punish Xibohou, wouldn't this be a cheat?
"Father's goal is too big, if he escapes, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out of the Shang country!" Ji Fa argued.
My father was too old to endure the long journey, and if there was any accident on the road, he couldn't afford it!
Ji Fa is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and now he uses Zhou Blacksmith, and he promised that once he returned to China and became a prince, he would promote Zhou Blacksmith to be a general!
"You are a spy, the mud can't support the wall, and you still want to be a general? Dream on!" Ji Fa muttered in his heart, he had already made preparations not to admit it!
Can I be a general who defends the frontier? Blacksmith Zhou was excited and agreed to Ji Fa's request: "No problem, the villain will definitely protect the second son!"
For the sake of the benefits promised by Ji Fa, Blacksmith Zhou even forgot about his master, Ji Chang!
The Marquis of Xibo was high and powerful, and the imperial court really found out that the second prince had fled from Yili City, and did not dare to dispose of him at will.
"Second son, please rest assured, I will definitely cover you out of the city!" Zhou blacksmith made a guarantee, he asked Ji Fa to get into a carriage, and only waited for the second son to go out of the city with him at dawn.
Blacksmith Zhou himself sat in the carriage and asked Ji Fa to be a groom, and the soldiers opened the city gate as soon as it was dawn, and as long as the blacksmith shop went outside the city to purchase raw materials, the soldiers generally did not ask much.
Blacksmith Zhou has been in and out of Jinli City countless times, and the soldiers defending the city never asked, he was very confident that he would take Ji Fa out of the city safely!
Ji Fanai was a son-in-law, who had ridden horses at most, but who had ever been someone else's groom? He had just arrived at the city gate when he was stopped by the soldiers.
The second son looks like he was born in a wealthy family, and he doesn't look like a servant at all!
"Who are you, and where are you going?" the soldier asked Ji Fa, who was about to leave the city, as he stopped him.
"Brother soldier, I am Lao Zhou of the blacksmith shop in the west of the city, and I went to the field to purchase raw materials!" "Blacksmith Zhou said with a big grin: "Your general has also built weapons in my shop, please make it convenient for you military masters, let me go!"
Blacksmith Zhou opened the curtain and reported the situation to the soldiers with a smiling face, everyone is an old acquaintance, how can he not let himself go?
"That's right!" the soldier looked at Ji Fa repeatedly: "Who is this person?
"This ......" Blacksmith Zhou hesitated, he didn't know how to introduce the second son!
"Me!" Ji Fa began to talk to the soldiers, but there was still no smile on his face, he was a dignified second son of Xibohou, how could he give an ordinary soldier a smile: "I am Xibohou's person, Hou Ye asked me to go to Chaoge City to find some special bronzes, so that Master Zhou can build a sword for my Hou Ye to defend himself!"
Ji Fa also knew that he had too many loopholes in his body, so he moved his father out!
Blacksmith Zhou didn't expect Ji Fa to say this, and he also echoed: "Yes, Hou Ye asked him to go to Chaoge City with him to supervise my selection of raw materials, and the money to buy raw materials is also paid by Hou Ye!"
"Really?" the soldier still refused to believe them: "I will send a team of men and horses to ask Xibohou for information, and then let you two out of the city after the news is confirmed!"
The soldiers put on an official appearance, "Today, the city lord has come to inspect it, who dares not to be in charge? If he is bumped into, he will be in trouble!
"Oops, it's going to be exposed!" Ji Fa just said casually, how did the soldier go to his father to ask for verification?
A team of soldiers left the city gate to go to Xibohou to verify, who knew that there was an accident just after arriving at the door, Xibohou was pretending to be a Taoist priest in the city to tell fortunes and preparing to quietly go out of the city!
"Master Hou, where are you going after you are in such a hurry!" The leading captain shouted loudly: "Bring Xibohou to Chaoge City for the king to see, such a virtuous Hou Ye actually pretended to be a Taoist priest, what does this mean!"
The captain was happy in his heart, he caught a big fish this time, and he must thank the kid who drove the car when he turned around, if he hadn't talked nonsense, how could he have made meritorious contributions?
Ji Fa felt guilty when he learned that he had made his father passive because of his lies.
The two of them were sent to Chaoge City together with Blacksmith Zhou, and they were all imprisoned!
Xibohou looked at the iron window and felt sad: maybe Xiqi is really exhausted, and he has no chance of success!
