Chapter 252: Mountain Rain is Coming

Between the river, the western suburbs of Yicheng, on the bank of the Yishui River.

Zhao Jia took three hundred heavily armed guards and stopped here, looking at Yicheng not far away.

"Your Majesty, after passing this city, you will enter the Yan Kingdom."

Bian Cheng pointed to the vast land in the distance and said to Zhao Jia.

Both Yicheng and Yishui once belonged to the Yan State, but unfortunately, since Li Mu seized the Ten Cities between the Hejian and the King of Yan personally agreed to assign these cities to the Zhao State, this place belonged to the undisputed territory of the Zhao State.

"The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return once he is gone."

Although it is spring now, Ranyan is in the north, and when the spring is cold, the spring breeze blowing on the bank of the Yishui River also makes everyone feel the slightest chill.

Seeing Yi Shui, which was flowing endlessly in the cold wind, and Yan Guo who was close at hand, Zhao Jia couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

"Stomp, stomp!"

Suddenly, more than 100 horsemen in the distance rushed towards this side, and the three hundred armor soldiers all raised their shields when they saw this, and their faces were full of vigilance.

"Your Majesty, it seems to be the Yishui Defenders!"

Zhao Jia looked intently, and sure enough, he saw the banner of Zhao Guo, and immediately signaled everyone not to be too nervous.

With Zhao Jia's current prestige, when passing through Yicheng, Yicheng Shou will come out to greet him in person, which is also a matter of course.

It's just that Zhao Jia didn't stay too much in Yicheng, but after greeting with the guards of Yicheng, he immediately held the banner of Zhao and entered the territory of Yan with the customs clearance documents.

"Your Majesty, there seems to be someone in front!"

The border between the two countries is relatively desolate, and after Zhao Jia and others went deeper than ten miles, the border city suddenly saw several people stopping on the official road in the distance, and they couldn't help but be vigilant.

"Send someone over and take a look!"

When he went out, Zhao Jia was also very vigilant, even if there were only a few people on the street, he did not relax his vigilance, but sent people to investigate in advance.

Not long after, the general who went to investigate immediately returned with one person in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, this person is a guest of Xinling Junmen, saying that there is something important to report?"

When Zhao Jia heard this, he looked at the man and asked, "How do you prove that you are a guest of Xinling Jun?" ”

The man was not annoyed, took out a piece of jade pendant from his arms, and said, "This is proof!" ”

Zhao Jia took the jade pendant, and after looking at it carefully, his pupils shrank, this kind of jade pendant Zhao Jia had heard Wei Wuji introduce, it was a token that only his henchmen had, and ordinary guests didn't even know that there was such a jade pendant.

Wei Wuji once told Zhao Jia that if he met someone carrying such a token, he could trust them.

"Sure enough, it's a token of Mowgli, but I'm too suspicious!"

Zhao Jia returned the person with the jade pendant in both hands, with a look of shame on his face.

The man smiled and said, "Pingqi Jun's daughter's body, no matter how cautious he is, this is a wise move." ”

Soon, though, the man's face turned serious.

He suddenly looked at Zhao Jia deeply, and said: "What happened to Daliang, we already know everything, if it weren't for the help of my son, my lord's reputation probably wouldn't have recovered so quickly, please accept my worship!" “

Zhao Jia hurriedly stepped forward to hold the man's arms, and sighed: "I have always admired Xinling Jun, and I have always seen the same thing as Gongzi Wuji, but I can only do such a meager thing for Gongzi, I am really ashamed to say it, how dare I accept a big gift from Mr.?" ”

The man said: "The grace of dripping water, when the spring is repaid, Pingqijun was the son of the prince in the past, and today we will come to save Pingqijun's life." ”

When Zhao Jia heard this, his pupils shrank and asked, "Why did Mr. say this?" ”

The man said: "If the prince can be trusted, then return to the Zhao State, and it is best to detour to the Wei State and go directly to the land of Shenqi." ”

Zhao Jia bowed his hand and said: "I hope Mr. will say it clearly!" ”

The man was silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "During this time, many Qin caravans entered the Yan Kingdom and gathered in the capital of the Yan Kingdom, Ji, and many of these caravans were powerful and obviously well-trained. ”

"If my expectations are correct, it must be that the Qin State wants to send someone to assassinate Pingqi Jun, so it will make such a big move."

"This time the Qin State is quite big, it is unpredictable how many people are bright or dark, Pingqi Jun is a daughter, it is best not to risk yourself!"

When Zhao Jia heard this, his pupils shrank.

The intelligence capabilities of Wei Wuji's subordinates are self-evident, and the king of Wei received a report from a messenger that Zhao Chen soldiers were on the border and wanted to attack Wei.

King Wei was panicked when he heard this, but Wei Wuji smiled and said, "This is King Zhao's ear hunting, Brother Wang doesn't need to worry." ”

Sure enough, in the end, another messenger came to report that King Zhao was hunting on the border between the two countries.

It was precisely because of that incident that King Wei suddenly woke up to the fact that Wei Wuji's eyes and ears had been planted in various countries, and his intelligence capabilities were even above his own, and he began to suspect Wei Wuji from then on.

Although Wei Wuji is not there now, what he has discovered under his command must not be false news.

But soon, Zhao Jia smiled and said: "I have three hundred elite guards, and I have the assistance of the Yan State, and the assassins of the Qin State, why be afraid?" ”

"Moreover, if I have come by command of the king, will I not disobey the king's command if I return here?"

It's not that Zhao Jia doesn't trust these people, and it's not that Zhao Jia pinned his personal safety on Yan Guo, it's just that he has a reason why he has to go to Yan, and he has absolute trust in his guards.

When the man heard this, he was anxious and said, "This time the Qin State is not small, don't be careless!" ”

Zhao Jia stepped forward to hold the man's hands and said gratefully: "No matter what, Zhao Jia will definitely remember the kindness of Mr. to report the news, and he will also be vigilant to guard against the attack of the assassins of the Qin State at any time." ”

"However, if the gentleman does something and does not do anything, if he flees back to Zhao State in fear because of the assassin of Qin State, how will the people of the world think of me Zhao Jia?"

The two said goodbye, Wei Wuji saw Zhao Jia leave, and finally sighed: "Since the prince is not afraid, we should protect each other with death, and repay the former Liang for maintaining the master's kindness!" ”

Chu State, Lanling.

In the mountains and forests in the eastern suburbs, there is a cemetery, and almost all the dead Chu people in the nearby ten miles and eight townships will be buried here.

At this time, on a piece of feng shui treasure land deep in the mountains and forests, the black-clothed young man with a sword on his back knelt in front of the grave and slowly sprinkled the wine in the gourd in front of the monument.

"Old man, you are dead, and this hero is finally free."

"Actually, I know that the name of Fugui is a black dog raised by your old man before, because he has followed you for a long time, even after a few years of old death, your old man still remembers it."

"No, in the year you picked me up, in order to commemorate the black dog, you gave me the dog name Fugui."

Speaking of this, the black-clothed young man showed a look of indignation on his face.

"Just give me the name of the black dog, teach me a world-wide swordsmanship, but don't let me fight with swords and chivalry, isn't that a pearl and jade."

"Now that you old man is gone, this hero can go wherever he wants, and there is no one to restrain him anymore, this hero is going to crisscross Kyushu and become famous!"

"The guy I met on the shore of the Reflection Lake before, I didn't expect to become a big man, and the swordsman next to him, this hero will also compete with him!"

As he spoke, the wine in the gourd had been poured out.

Wang Fugui threw away the gourd, kowtowed three times to the newly built tomb, and then turned away without looking back.

It's just that just as he turned to leave, the sparkle in the corner of his eye fell to the ground and was quickly swallowed up by the grass.
