If after the restoration of the Yue Kingdom, Goujian, the king of Yue, still abused Queen Yayu for a long time with cold violence, Fan Li would never sit idly by. At that time, he could arrange for Yayu to leave King Yue and live a new life.

But Yayu refused. The reason is that if she does that, it will inevitably bring shame to her mother's relatives and her mother's country. Because she is the queen, the historian will also record the trajectory of her life. She will leave a stigma in history.

And she repeatedly told that her relationship with Fan Li should also be brought into the coffin as a permanent secret.

In this way, she is faced with only two choices, one is to continue to endure the abuse of King Yue for a long time, or be secretly killed by King Yue. Kill Yayu publicly, Gou Jian doesn't have the courage yet. The second is to end one's own life.

With Yayu's strong character, once her mission is completed and the country no longer needs her, she will no longer endure the abuse of King Yue, and she will die.

Fan Li, no matter how he used the method of reasoning or the method of warmth and emotion, could not change Yayu. That is, he saw that such a beautiful and great woman would commit suicide in the near future, but he could not do anything about it.

It's hard to put into words.

Fan Li stayed in the stone house for a few days, persuading day and night, but Yayu was unmoved. Later, Yayu promised that he would not commit suicide after returning to China in the future, and obeyed Fan Li's arrangement.

But Fan Li obviously felt that Yayu was just verbally agreeing in order not to make Fan Li sad. Actually, it didn't change the decision. This made Fan Li even more sad.

Fan Li couldn't tell Meng Ji about these situations, so he could only tell Meng Ji again and again that he must take care of the queen.

Meng Ji is the most intimate person in Yayu, don't Fan Liming say it, and also know the final result of the matter, she fell into Fan Li's arms and cried bitterly, saying that she would definitely comfort the queen and persuade the queen that if she really couldn't make the queen change her mind, then he would go with the queen.

Fan Li was even more sad. He felt so helpless. He has the ability to destroy a country and change the pattern of the world, but he has no way to change two women.

The more people die lightly, so far!

Fan Li was full of grief, bid farewell to Yayu Mengji, and embarked on the journey again.

The army of the Yue State has been trained, but it cannot fight a decisive battle with the Wu army, because the two armies of Wu and Yue are almost as strong. In this way, two armies cannot fight. Because in the end, the result was a loss of an arm and a loss of a leg. Even if you win, you will be wasted.

According to the resolution of the Shiwu Conference, Fan Li's task was to provoke Wu and other countries to fight again, and when Wu was exhausted, Yue Guo would pounce on it and cut it off.

In order to ensure that victory is secure, there is one more thing to do, and that is to get rid of Wu Zixu. Without Wu Zixu's command, the combat effectiveness of Wu's army would be greatly reduced.

Getting rid of Wu Zixu is not necessarily killing Wu Zixu, Fan Li can't bear to kill Wu Zixu. Such a great hero should not have died at his own hands. If you want to kill Wu Zixu, it is a very simple matter, with your current martial arts, assassinating Wu Zixu can be said to be as easy as a finger.

The best result is to let Wu Zixu leave, whether it is voluntary or King Wu forces him to leave, let him take his family, leave Wu State, and spend his old age in peace.

There is another option, which is to kill Wu Zixu by the hand of King Wu. Thinking of this, Fan Li couldn't bear it in his heart. But in order to restore the country, he had to do it again.

These things that Fan Li wants to do are seemingly impossible, how to provoke a war for no reason? He didn't have a clue. How to get rid of Wu Zixu, I don't have a clue.

The only thing that can be said for sure is to act at the opportunistic level.

Fan Li ran on the road to Wu State, walking, thinking, day and night, and arrived in Gusu in less than a day.

This time, instead of wearing a moon-white robe, he wore a gray coat, hid the sword under his clothes, pulled the cloak down, covered his face, and easily blended into Gusu City.

The poor harvest in Wu and the burning in Quyang attracted a large amount of grain outflow, which had a great impact on the economy of Wu. The streets of Gusu are no longer so prosperous. Many shops are closed during the day, and the streets are not so bustling and bustling.

This is still the case in the capital, and the situation in the distant countryside is even worse.

Fan Li walked on the street and was not noticeable. He turned into a secluded side street, stopped at the door of a house, saw that there was no one around, and knocked on the door.

After a while, there were footsteps inside, the door opened gently, and Ximen Caiyun appeared at the door, and the voice of surprise said: "My lord, please come in!" ”

Fan Li stepped into the door, and Caiyun closed the door behind him and latched. "Your Excellency, please rest in the back hall."

Caiyun led the way in front, and when he entered the back hall, Fan Li put down his bags and put down his sword. Caiyun wiped the stool, asked Fan Li to sit down, and then brought a basin of water for Fan Li to wash. He made the bed and said, "My lord, lie down and rest, and I will call you when the meal is ready." ”

After a long journey in the past few days, Fan Li was a little tired. You're welcome, so he lay down on Caiyun's bed. Caiyun has been busy.

It's more remote, there's no sound on the streets, and it's quieter inside. On the quilt on the pillow, there was still a faint fragrance, which was the smell left by the colorful clouds, Fan Li closed his eyes, and couldn't help but think about it.

Caiyun is a good woman! Fan Li's heart was slightly excited, his mood and body were completely relaxed, fatigue rose, and he fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept, but I suddenly felt the breath of someone around me, and when I opened my eyes, I saw Caiyun standing in front of the bed, silently watching herself. Fan Li sat up and said, "What time is it?" How long have I been asleep? ”

Caiyun seemed to be discovered by voyeurism, and a flush flew on his face, and he said, "My lord slept for two hours, and I saw that you slept deeply, so I didn't dare to call you." It's dusk outside. ”

Fan Li shook his head: "I slept for too long, but fortunately I didn't make a mistake." Hi girl, I look ugly when I'm asleep, right? ”

Caiyun lowered his head and smiled: "Adults are good-looking, and they are also good-looking when they fall asleep." The food is all hot in the pot, and I'll go get it. ”

Fan Li was hungry, and he was not polite, and sat down at the table, Caiyun said, "Do you want to drink some wine?" ”

Fan Li said: "I have something to do at night, so I won't drink." Girl, how is the wine sold in Beidaying? ”

Caiyun accompanied Fan Li to dinner, and replied: "The sales are very large, and one of the hundred soldiers drinks alcohol, so it will also sell a lot of wine." ”

Fan Li said: "Good job. Does General Sima still come back often? ”

Caiyun said: "I often come back to get wine. As he spoke, his face turned red again. There are still not many soldiers like Sima Zhe who can often go home.

Fan Li said: "Have you all been to see the residence in the countryside? ”

Caiyun said, "We've all been there. That place is nice. The kid and the grandfather were over there. ”

Fan Li said: "Listen, sister, your business of selling wine will soon be out of business, and you will have to stop selling it for a few months at most." ”

Caiyun was taken aback: "What's the matter, adult?" ”

Fan Li said: "This thing is too dangerous, and if you are caught by Wu Zixu, you will die." In addition, in a few months, the Wu army will go to war. There's no need to sell alcohol. ”

Caiyun was obviously taken aback by the news: "There is going to be a war?" ”

Fan Li said: "It is estimated in a few months. Listen to the girl, sell the wine stored here, and it's over. Then you don't want to live here anymore. Let's go back to the countryside and live. You said to Sima that as soon as you found out that the Wu army was going to send troops to fight, you took advantage of the chaos to escape. This battle will take a long time, more than half of the soldiers of the Wu army will die, Sima participated in the war, it is difficult to come back alive, there is no need to send him to death. If you are not safe in the countryside, you can go directly to Yueguo, you have the skills of tea, eggs and pig's head meat, and you can eat everywhere. ”

Caiyun said, "My lord, is the matter so urgent? ”

Fan Li said: "It's so urgent. Sister, you were brought here by me, I am responsible for you, and I want to arrange a good way back for you. This is the last time I've come to you, and I probably won't be here again. When the wine here is sold, you can quietly withdraw. ”。

The meal was finished. Caiyun washed the dishes and chopsticks, came back and looked at Fan Li and said, "My lord, can Caiyun still see you in the future?" ”

Fan Li sighed deeply: "Sister, I can't say for sure, let's look at fate." ”
