Li Si sat in the carriage, closed his eyes and pondered, but he couldn't calm down.

As soon as he thought of Xu Fu, he frowned secretly, this person who had been giving him a headache four years ago came back again, and he also brought the elixir of life, which was really a headache.

"Sir, it's here."

In the middle of the ring, the carriage returned to the Li Mansion, and when the coachman's words came, Li Si answered, temporarily suppressed the thoughts in his heart, and then got off the carriage and returned to the mansion.

Not long after he returned to the room, a young man knocked on the door.

"Master, Lord Wang, Lord He, when a few adults come, they will wait in the hall."

"Well, got it, you go and entertain first." Li Si waved his hand, not the slightest surprise, Xu Fu's return must have made many people uneasy.

He had already thought that someone would come to his mansion.

The maid took off her official uniform, changed into a slightly loose comfortable gown, and immediately came to the hall.

"Master Li!"

"Master Li!" Seeing this, the seven or eight adults waiting in the hall immediately stood up and saluted.

Li Si nodded, waved his hand, sat on the main seat, and then picked up the teacup next to him and moistened his throat with tea.

Those adults saw that Li Si was very plain, but they were secretly a little anxious.

"Master Li......." One of the officials shouted with a worried face.

Li Si put down the teacup, glanced at the former, and chuckled: "What's the hurry, this little thing still scares you like this, it's just a Xu Fu, what does it matter." ”

"Yes, it's the lower officials who are a little impatient." Hearing this, the former nodded, and sat down again.

None of them spoke again, waiting for Li Si to speak first.

The thick night, like a wave of ink, rendered the entire sky, and the slightly cool night reflected the many slightly restless ministers in the hall.

Li Si took a sip lightly, then drank it all again, put the teacup down, and then looked at the ministers again.

"Say it!" Li Sidao.

"My lord, now that Xu Fu is back, what should I do?" A minister stepped forward.

He used to be Xu Fu's faction, and later Xu Fu went to sea to return to Li Si, and now that Xu Fu is back, he is naturally worried, very worried and afraid.

If it was according to Xu Fu's temperament four years ago, he would not let anything that was unfavorable to him happen......

And how much more so are the subordinates who were once loyal to themselves.

When Xu Fu came back this time, he was afraid that Xu Fu would make trouble with him.

"What to do?" Li Si showed a surprised expression, as if he was very puzzled.

"Your Excellency...... You know. The minister hurriedly said.

Li Si did not speak, did not express or object, but was silent for a moment.

"Now after all, it's not four years ago, since he Xu Fu is back, the current court is not something he said can interfere with, you don't have to worry, since you follow me Li Si, I will naturally take care of you, if Xu Fu intends to make things difficult, I have to see if I agree, if Xu Fu calls you, you will send someone to tell me." Li Si spoke, comforting everyone and stabilizing people's hearts.

"Yes...... My lord. Eventually, the adult could only nod his head.

"My lord, now that Xu Fu is back, His Majesty's health is healthy, as for the matter of supporting Prince Huhai?" A minister cautiously proposed.

Lees frowned.

"If the elixir is really useful, all our previous four years of hard work will be wasted, this Hu Hai does not learn and has no skills, he only knows how to drink and have fun every day, and it is useless to support him now."

"Let's keep a relationship with him for now, but don't waste a lot of energy, let's wait and see." Li Sidao.

The ministers nodded.

Many ministers were very uneasy in their hearts, and they made a lot of plans and redeployments for Xu Fu's arrival, and Li Si also let the others relax, and several people discussed for a long time, and then left one after another.

After the ministers left, a figure stepped out of the shadows in the hall.

"Your Excellency."

"Hmm."

Li Si nodded, feeling that he was very thirsty today, and drank a cup of tea again before saying, "Is Xu Fu a person?" ”

Xu Fu returned from overseas, but there was only one person, and he sent someone to inquire at the first time.

"Yes, my lord, as you said, that Xu Fu really returned from overseas alone, and he didn't bring anyone." Retinue of the Word.

"Mo Ting is not here either?" Lees asked.

"Not there."

"Hehe, this Xu Fu really came back alone, and he was really bold, and his retinue Mo Ting, who had advanced cultivation, didn't bring it." A sinister smile spread across Lees' face.

"In that case, this is a great opportunity." Li Si said softly, "Go find them." ”

"Yes, sir." The attendant nodded respectfully, then disappeared into the gloom.

Li Si looked at the thick night outside the door, and his face became a little colder with the cold night.

"Xu Fu, I can't help you this time, since you choose to come back from overseas Immortal Mountain, then don't leave, maybe the Qin Dynasty is the most suitable for you."

……

The night is thick, in a relatively remote place outside the city of Xianyang, there is a pavilion, surrounded by a few dilapidated houses, this was once a very prosperous village, because of its proximity to Xianyang.

However, in order to build the defense of Xianyang, King Qin let all these villagers move out of here, and now this place has become desolate, lonely, dilapidated, without any human population, and everywhere is weeds and the smell of decay.

In the night, these pavilions stand quietly like ghosts, and from time to time there will be the sound of dead crows.

The Xianyang City Gate is as solid as a fortified defense, and the people guarding the gate are also the brave people in the Qin army who were specially selected.

However, no matter how strong the defense is, it can only block part of it.

At the corner of the city wall, a figure just jumped up the city tower with a slight leap, and quietly left Xianyang City, and the person guarding the gate did not know this scene.

The figure left the city gate, did not stop, and went straight to the remote and desolate village outside Xianyang City.

It wasn't until he saw the pavilions where only a faint figure could be seen in the darkness that the black-clothed man stopped.

Bang bang bang!

The figure knocked on the door three times.

But no one answered in the attic, and the attic was empty.

After a few breaths, the figure continued to knock on the door three more times.

An extremely cautious voice came from the attic.

"Sword Pavilion"

"Upstairs!"

Then the door creaked open, and a gap appeared, and the figure quickly entered and closed the door.

Although the outside of the attic is dilapidated, it is a different scene, with simple tables and chairs, similar to a restaurant, but very clean.

He went straight up to the second floor.

There were quite a few tables on the second floor, and in the darkness, there was a man sitting at the table in the center.

The figure walked over and sat down across from him.

"Who is it this time?" The man in the dark asked.

"Xu Fu"

"Well, it's him again?"

"He's back?"

"It's none of your business, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, isn't that your rule?"

"It's just curious, after all, he's not an ordinary person."

"Come back, get ready."

"Don't worry, we have suffered a secret loss in his hands, and this field will be recovered."

"But it will take a while, and it will take a while for Gongsun Xiu to be able to come back."

"No need for him, Moting didn't come back this time, only Xu Fu was alone."

"Oh, it's just him, then your Li Mansion should be able to do it."

"He just came back, King Qin is very favored, you guys clean up."

"Okay, don't worry."

"Remember, don't leave the handle behind."

"Upstairs hands and feet have always been clean."

"Hmm."

The figure nodded, and in the cool night, walked out of the seemingly abandoned pavilion again.

Li Fu Li Si had already taken off his clothes and lay on the bed, his eyes slightly closed, he didn't fall asleep, or he couldn't sleep, some things were not done well, and they would always affect his mind.

It's his habit that he can sleep safely only after getting a definite answer, and he needs to have everything firmly in his hands.

The moonlight poured down and was reflected on the floor in the room through the window lattice, spreading out like a sparkling surface of water.

Collapse!

A dull voice rang out outside the door.

Li Si opened his eyes for the first time.

"Are you done?"

"Don't worry, my lord, I've already explained." The voice replied.

"Okay, this time we must kill with one hit, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and leave no traces."

"Adults can rest assured, the people outside the building have always been simple and decisive, even if something happens, they can't trace us."

"I naturally know this, but I always feel at ease about Xu Fu, and I still don't know why there is always a deep fear in my heart."

"He came back this time, he has changed too much, but he can't tell where those changes are, his anger seems to be a little less, and he is not so enthusiastic about power, I don't know if this is just a superficial performance, if not, this Xu Fu is even more feared than four years ago."

"After all, he is no longer the boy he was four years ago, and the terrible thing is that compared to his age, his share of the city is especially worrying."

"Adults are too worried, no matter how powerful he is, he is still just a person, and his flesh and blood are still no match for a sword."

There was silence in the room.

Then he said: "That's right, maybe I'm thinking too much, I hope I don't see him again." ”

"Don't worry, sir."

"Stand down!"

"Well, your lord, have a good rest."
