Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, Ji Xue quietly approached Mafu Jun's Mansion.

This mansion was specially built by King Qin Zhaoxiang for Zhao Kuo and Princess Ji Hua of Liyang, the momentum is very grand, and the six horizontal towering halls also show the master's prominent royal identity.

Ji Xue hid in a stone alley not far from the carriage and horse farm, and saw that the mansion was surrounded by heavily guarded Minggang secret posts, it seems that the rumors in the market are right, Zhao Kuo was indeed under house arrest by King Qin. But Ji Xue didn't know if there would be patrolling guards in the house, so she didn't dare to jump over the wall to enter.

Just as Ji Xue was carefully observing, a bronze chariot suddenly drove into the carriage and horse farm, and a young man dressed in the uniform of a black Qin State official jumped out of the chariot, followed by a young man with a sword.

With the faint light of the carriage and horse farm, Ji Xue recognized the young man at a glance as his son Zhao Gao: "Gao'er? Ji Xue shouted softly in the direction of the car.

Zhao Gao was about to enter the mansion when he suddenly heard his mother's familiar voice and couldn't help but turn his head in surprise.

Seeing his mother waving to him, Zhao Gao hurriedly looked around vigilantly. Seeing that the spearmen on both sides of the hall didn't notice this, Zhao Gaoao whispered to the sword-wielding officer beside him, and then quickly flashed into the alley: "Why is Mother here?" ”

"Gao'er, your father, he ......" Ji Xue held her son's hand tightly and asked anxiously.

Zhao Gao smiled reluctantly: "King Qin misses the old friendship and can't bear to deal with it easily, but he just sends troops to prevent him from leaving the house at will." ”

Hearing the news that Zhao Kuo was fine, Ji Xue breathed a sigh of relief on the spot, and just wanted to ask again, Zhao Gao had already stretched out his index finger and made a quiet gesture: "Mother's thoughts, Gao'er understands." ”

"My lord, the costume you wanted." As he spoke, the little officer with the sword walked into the alley vigilantly holding the official uniform he had been wearing.

Zhao Gao took the official uniform and handed it to Ji Xue: "Mother, there is not much time, quickly change it." With that, Zhao Gao glanced at the situation outside the alley, and then hurried back to the side of the reined car with the little official, and ordered, "You wait here." ”

"No." The officer answered, then leaned over and crawled back into the car.

Ji Xue, who was about to change her clothes, walked out of the alley, Zhao Gao looked up and down carefully, and was sure that he couldn't see any flaws, so he led Ji Xue to Mafu Junfu Mansion calmly.

"Stop!" As soon as they ascended the steps, several armor soldiers raised their spears to block the way of the two, "Who is coming?" ”

"Zhao Gao ordered by the CRRC Mansion to visit the Mansion by the order of King Qin!" Zhao Gao turned his head arrogantly and held up a black jade token.

As soon as the armor soldiers saw the black jade token, they immediately dodged the road and put on a humble expression: "It was originally an order from the CRRC government, my lord, please." Zhao Gao smiled gloomily, put away the token casually, and stepped into the mansion with Ji Xue.

didn't take a few steps, and the old manager of the house came forward: "Lord Zhao......" Before he finished speaking, the old manager squinted his old eyes and saw Ji Xue standing not far behind Zhao Gao, and suddenly muttered in his heart, why is this little official with a sword so familiar?

"Butler, the situation is urgent, quickly lead me to see Ma Fujun." Zhao Gao didn't want to delay time, and couldn't wait to speak.

"No." The old housekeeper rubbed his eyes, looked at Ji Xue again, and then led the two of them to Zhao Kuo's study tremblingly. After the old housekeeper left, Zhao Gao walked into the study.

"Gao'er?" Since being placed under house arrest by King Qin, no one has come to Mafu Jun's Mansion for a long time, and Zhao Gao's sudden appearance surprised Zhao Kuo.

"Yingzheng asked his son to visit the house." Zhao Gao paused, turned sideways and pointed to Ji Xue, who was dressed as a sword-wielding officer behind him, with a slightly naughty look on his face, "Father, do you know who this person is?" ”

Zhao Kuo looked strangely in the direction of Zhao Gao's finger, the candlelight was flickering, and the light in the room seemed a little dim. "After knowing each other for so many years, Ji Xue has always worn Bai Aisu, and suddenly changed into this black Qin State official uniform, Zhao Kuo really didn't recognize her for a while.

"Childe." Ji Xue walked out of the darkness with tears in her eyes, and the candlelight instantly shone on her slightly haggard face.

"Snow Girl!" Zhao Kuo trembled, involuntarily rushed forward, and hugged her in his arms.

Ji Xue quietly leaned on Zhao Kuo's thick chest as before, bowed her head and sobbed: "Li Mu, he ......" left the camp in the clouds that day, Ji Xue galloped all the way on the grassland, and unknowingly came to the upper county of Qin State. Anyway, there was nowhere to go, so Ji Xue simply went all the way south and went straight to Xianyang. As soon as he entered the city, he heard the talk that Ma Fujun was deposed by the King of Qin and placed under house arrest......

"I will definitely avenge Li Mu and kill Guo Kai and Zhao Qian!" Zhao Kuo gently patted Ji Xue's shoulder and comforted him in a low voice.

"Childe, Ji Xue has a word, I don't know if I should say it or not." Ji Xue raised her head and hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke.

Zhao Kuo turned his head and motioned for Zhao Gao to sit down, and then helped Ji Xue to sit in the case: "Sister Xue, it's okay to say it." ”

Ji Xue stared at Zhao Kuo's face that was crawling with years and ravines, and sighed: "The chaos of Qin is over, can the son return to Zhao?" ”

Zhao Gao was so smart, seeing this, he hurriedly gave up his hand and persuaded him: "What my mother said is reasonable, Qin has no place for his father, so it is better to return to Zhao immediately while Yingzheng is still hesitating!" ”

Zhao Kuo sighed, he had worked hard for twenty-five years before he reached the peak of Qin's power, who would have thought that in just an instant, everything would turn into floating clouds. Now there is no point in staying in Qin, after Li Mu's death, the 200,000 border army is leaderless, at this time, the only way to rush to the clouds and instigate a mutiny can turn the tide and make Zhao regain a glimmer of life. However, the King of Qin has sent heavy troops to surround the mansion, so how easy is it to leave?

Zhao Kuo smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The outside of the house is heavily guarded, I'm afraid it's helpless!" ”

"There is no need to worry about this, there is a way out of the predicament." Zhao Gao patted his chest and said confidently, "It's just that Li Mu is dead, who in the clouds can trust his father?" Zhao Gao turned to say the biggest worry in his heart.

Oh, yes! I've never thought of this before! Zhao Kuo's face suddenly showed a trace of embarrassment.

"Childe, please take a look." Seeing this scene, Ji Xue lowered her head and took out a piece of parchment from her arms and handed it to Zhao Kuo. Zhao Kuo took the parchment suspiciously, and unfolded it by candlelight, and it was actually the general's order written by Li Mu himself.

It turned out that after formulating the combat strategy of hanging troops and advancing alone, just in case, Li Mu deliberately wrote this general order, stating that if he died in battle, he would immediately let Ji Xue go to Qin to invite Zhao Kuo, the king of Ma Fujun, to preside over the overall situation in Yunzhong, and wait for the opportunity to launch a mutiny and eradicate the traitorous law.

"The general sent Pegasus overnight to send this order back to the clouds and secretly hand it over to me." Ji Xue added lightly.

The most tricky thing was solved so easily, Zhao Kuo clenched the parchment in his hand, and his eyes were full of tears: "Great Li Mu!" I heard that you don't understand the big politics, and it wasn't until today that I realized that this was true! ”

"Husband." As he spoke, a figure slowly walked in from outside the study.

"Sister?" At the same time as hearing that familiar voice, Ji Xue stood up involuntarily, she had always thought that Ji Hua lived in Liyang, so she didn't expect to see her sister here at all. I haven't seen each other for many years, and the sisters hugged each other and cried for a while.

Seeing this, Zhao Gao got up and arched his hand and said, "Time is pressing, so I will leave the house to prepare first!" Tomorrow is the end of the day! ”

Just when Zhao Gao was about to walk out of the study, Zhao Kuo suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to call Zhao Gao, and then hurriedly stepped forward and whispered in his ear: "If there is a white rise, Zhao Guo is in danger!" For Zhao Guoji, he should die in vain! ”

"Father, rest assured." A strange smile appeared on Zhao Gao's gloomy face......

At the end of the next morning, it was the time for the change of guard outside the Mafu Monarch's Mansion, and in this gap where the defense was the emptiest, suddenly only a few "whoosh" sounds were heard, and the eight armorers guarding on both sides of the entrance hall had no time to speak, and they fell to the ground one after another with painful expressions, each with a slender poisonous needle pierced in their necks.

At the same time, eight samurai in the same armor rushed out of the Mafuki-kun's mansion, and they quickly dragged the corpses on the ground into the mansion, and then stood back outside the foyer.

A moment later, Zhao Kuo, dressed in cloth, and the Ji sisters hurriedly walked out of the mansion, and a dilapidated one-horse black caravan was already waiting in front of the mansion.

"My lord, get in the car!" The driver of the car pulled the black cloth in front of the canopy sideways and urged.

"Childe take care!" The old butler stood on the steps of the foyer and bowed deeply to Zhao Kuo. Farewell today may be goodbye! Thinking of this, Zhao Kuo couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, turned around and wanted to tell the old housekeeper again, but he didn't want to drive his hand but grabbed Zhao Kuo with his hand, "My lord, don't wait any longer!" Pressed for time! ”

Zhao Kuo nodded helplessly, stared deeply at the rickety old figure, and then gritted his teeth and turned his head to step into the caravan.

Not long after the black caravan left, the Qin army armor who had changed the guard rumbled outside the Mafu Jun's mansion.
