As soon as Wen Chong returned to his house, he immediately went to the backyard to see Fan Li, who was making tea, and when he saw him come in, he smiled and said, "Brother Wen Chong came just in time, taste the tea I brewed." ”

Wen Chong took the tea he handed over, and shook his head again and again as soon as he entered his mouth, "This tea is far from the Tianshan white tea I gave to Bo Yao." ”

Fan Li smiled, slowly drinking the tea soup with a hint of fragrance in the bitterness, and looked quite enjoyable.

Wen Chong had been waiting for Fan Li to ask Bo Yao about the situation, but he just didn't speak, and couldn't help but say: "Don't you want to know what the result will be when I go to Dazaifu today?" ”

Fan Li smiled and said: "Seeing that Brother Wen Chong came in, he was refreshed, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, so everything must be going well." ”

Wen Chong was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head and said: "You, if you don't want to be a strategist, you can go and see the face, make sure to see it." After the joke, he carefully recounted the scene of the conversation with Bo Ya, and said: "Although Bo Yao didn't say it clearly, I am sure that he will definitely try his best to protect King Yue, you can rest assured." ”

Faced with this good news, Fan Li not only did not show a happy look, but frowned slightly, and Wen Chong said suspiciously: "What's wrong?" ”

Fan Li hesitated: "He really doesn't doubt your words at all?" ”

Hearing this, Wen Chong's expression suddenly relaxed, and he said with a smile: "Today's words were decided by you and me after several deliberations, and they are seamless, how can he doubt it; In order to win his trust, I even told him that I had been an official in Chu and Vietnam. ”

"Having said that, but Bo Yao is an extremely popular minister, and it stands to reason that he would not be so gullible in believing the words of an outsider." Fan Li had already planned it, but if Bo Yao refused, he asked Wen Chong to make some more money and let his wives and concubines around him blow the wind in his ears, but he didn't expect it to be so smooth.

Wen Chong said disapprenorovingly: "It's true that I am an outsider, but what I can say is true, if King Yue dies, Wu Zixu will be even more unstoppable, and he will never want to get rid of Wu Zixu's suppression in this life." ”

"But I always thought it was too easy." Facing Fan Li's words, Wen Chong said: "According to me, you just think too much; Think about it, Bo Yao has lived under Wu Zixu for a long time, and he has long been unwilling; Coupled with the first battle of the Yue Kingdom, he lost such a big face again, and he wanted to win back a game; Now that I have shown him such a clear path, there is no reason not to agree. ”

Fan Li was silent, and after a while, he suddenly said: "What kind of person do you think Bo Yao is?" ”

Wen Chong said fourteen words without thinking, "Greedy for money and good name, baht must be compared, and there is a villain." ”

Fan Li stared, "Maybe...... We've all been deceived. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"I suspect ......" Fan Li's eyes flickered, and he said word by word: "Bo Yao has long understood the stakes, even if you don't go this way, he will protect King Yue." ”

"Impossible." Wen Chong shook his head again and again, "I have been in Gusu for a few years, and I have already inquired about him clearly, his ability is mediocre, and he is so happy. With his qualifications, he could never have known all this, otherwise I wouldn't have been so surprised when I told him that. ”

Fan Li said in a deep voice: "I can't say the specifics, in short, be careful of this person." ”

"Got it." Wen Chong responded casually, but he didn't think so, "By the way, has Brother Fan thought of a plan to restore the country?" ”

Fan Li said in a deep voice: "There are some eyebrows, but the matter of recovering the country is very important, and a mistake may lose everything, I have to think about it carefully." As he spoke, he said again: "By the way, there is one more thing to trouble Brother Wen. ”

"Just say it."

"In order to save my life, Shi Gong was generous and righteous that day, and entrusted his only daughter to me before he died, but when I arrived at Lai Luo Village, Miss Shi was no longer there, I inquired and learned that Wu Jun had been there, and I suspected that she was arrested by Wu Jun and came to Gusu, so I wanted to ask Brother Wen to inquire."

Hearing that this was the case, Wen Chong's face was embarrassed, "This ......"

Fan Li said suspiciously: "What, is it very difficult?" ”

"It's not that I'm embarrassed, it's just that ......" Wen Chong hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said: "There is one thing I haven't had time to tell Brother Fan, only a dozen of the more than 100 Yue women captured by Wu Jun have arrived in Gusu. ”

Fan Li was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "What about the others?" ”

Wen Chong roughly explained the matter, and sighed: "Half of the sick died, and half of them escaped, and the result was like this, and it was really miserable." ”

Fan Li clenched the teacup in his hand tightly, so hard that he could almost hear the painful ** of the teacup, and for a while, he said coldly: "Do you really believe that those Yue girls escaped from illness?" ”

Wen Chong was stunned by him, "Isn't it?" ”

"Not to mention that the disease will kill dozens of people in a row, let's just say that a group of weak women who are powerless can escape from thousands of troops, or under Wu Zixu's nose, is it possible? If this is the case, in the past, Fujiao would have won the battle, and it should be our Yue Guo. ”

Hearing this, Wen Chong seemed to understand something, and exclaimed, "You mean...... Was all this deliberately arranged? ”

Fan Li nodded and said: "Wu Zixu is afraid that these Yue girls will affect King Wu, and he is afraid that Bo Yao will take advantage of this to take the throne, but he can't oppose it clearly, so he uses this method to prevent Yue Nu from entering the palace." If I guessed correctly, those so-called escaped Yue women have all become dead souls under the knife. ”

"Despicable!" Wen Chong scolded angrily, seeing that Fan Li was frowning, knowing that he was worried about Yiguang, he was relieved: "Miss Shi is auspicious, she will definitely be fine, don't worry too much, I will send someone to inquire about the place where they are being held later." ”

Fan Li nodded and said astringently: "I hope so, otherwise under Jiuquan, I really have no shame to face Shi Gong." ”

Besides, Yiguang and Dongyun were looking for Zheng Dan everywhere, but there was no progress, no one alive, no corpse was dead, and they didn't know what to do.

Dongyun pondered: "It's not a way for us to wait like this, so let's go to my friend together, he is resourceful, maybe there will be a way." ”

Yiguang thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "I still want to look for it here again." Saying that, she said again: "It's really sad that Sister Dongyun is here to accompany Tongxun these days, you go to find your friend." ”

Dongyun's heart moved, but he hesitated, Yiguang saw her thoughts, and smiled: "Sister, don't worry, I can take care of myself." ”

"But ......" Without waiting for Dongyun to continue, Yiguang said: "It's really okay, if my sister is not at ease, I will come back after I find your friend." ”

Seeing her say this, Dong Yun was no longer reluctant, and Yin Yin instructed: "After I enter the city, you must be careful yourself, if you encounter hooligans and bandits, quickly hide." ”

"Got it." Yiguang felt her concern, and pointed to the pouch on his waist, which contained all kinds of pouches that she picked when she was looking for Zheng Dan in the mountains in the past few days, with different effects, and several of them were extremely fierce, and you could see blood to seal your throat, "Although I don't have your martial arts, I also have some self-protection skills, and it's not so easy to harm me." ”

"Anyway, be careful." After a few more words, Dongyun left here, because he was not familiar with the place and there was not much information that had been transmitted, so he searched for several days before he could find it.

In the Wen Mansion, Wen Chong and Fan Li were still discussing things, and the next person came over and said: "Master, there is a girl at the door, who is named to find Fan Gongzi." ”

"Looking for me?" Fan Li was full of surprise, and Wen Chong on the side said, "What is the girl's name?" ”

The subordinate shook his head and said, "She won't say." ”

Wen Chong quipped: "Could it be the romantic debt you owe, Brother Fan?" ”

"What nonsense." Fan Li glanced at him and said, "Let her in." ”

Not long after, the next person led a woman in a black power suit with a heroic posture over, and when he saw the comer, Fan Li's doubts were solved.

When the woman saw Fan Li, her eyes turned slightly red, and then she showed a happy smile, "Sure enough, it's Brother Fan." ”

Fan Li greeted him and said with a smile: "Why did you come?" ”

"As soon as I knew that something had happened in Yueguo, I immediately went to Huiji to look for you, but I was still a step late, and I heard that the king of Yue and the princes and ministers were taken to Gusu, so I followed, and I have been trying to inquire for the past few days. Passing by here just now, I saw a back image of you, but I wasn't sure, so I tried the porter, and it was really Brother Fan. As she spoke, she said with concern, "Brother Fan is okay, right?" ”

Fan Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine." ”

Listening to what they said there, Wen Chong couldn't help but say, "Brother Fan, who is this girl, I won't introduce it." ”

"Her name is Dong Yun, she is a friend I made when I was in Chu State, and she is good at swordsmanship; When she was commissioned to assassinate a courtier, she was so prepared that she was rounded up instead, and after desperately escaping from the siege, she lost too much blood due to serious injuries and fell into a coma in the forest. Later, I went to Yueguo, and she went north to Yanguo, which was a few years, but I didn't expect to meet here. ”

Wen Chong suddenly, "So Miss Dongyun came all the way here just to find Brother Fan?" ”

"Brother Fan is my life-saving benefactor, if the benefactor is in trouble, how can I ignore it, fortunately, Brother Fan is safe, otherwise Dongyun will not be at ease for the rest of his life."

"It's all said that it's a gesture, not enough to worry about, but you have always kept it in mind."

"For you, it's a gesture, but for me, it's a life-saving grace, how dare you forget." In the seemingly calm eyes, there are thousands of wisps of tenderness, when she was rescued by Fan Li, and he took care of her, she had already secretly promised, she wanted to be with her for a long time, and she was with her for a lifetime, but Fan Li refused, so she had to hide this affection in her heart.

When Han Shui said goodbye, she seemed to be as chic and comfortable as before, but she always pretended to be Fan Li in her heart, and she always paid attention to the situation in Yueguo, so she could come so quickly after the accident in Yueguo.

"Originally, I could have arrived a few days earlier, but outside Gusu City, I saw a Wu soldier who wanted to be unfavorable to the two Yue girls, but unfortunately I only saved one and the other fell off the cliff."

Wen Chong said in a deep voice: "The Yue girls you met should be the ones who were killed by Gongsun Li under their pretext. ”

Dongyun nodded and said: "Yes, I have been with Yiguang for three days, but unfortunately I haven't found the girl who fell off the cliff, I'm afraid she was taken away by a wolf." ”

Fan Li's face changed, and he said eagerly: "What did you just say, Yiguang?" ”

Dongyun said suspiciously: "Yes, that girl told me that her name is Yiguang, what's wrong?" ”

Fan Li didn't answer, but asked, "Where is she now?" ”

"When I left, she was still in an abandoned hut on the side of the mountain, and she should have left by this time, and she promised me only three days."

"Take me there!" Fan Li said anxiously, he never expected to get Yiguang's whereabouts from Dongyun's mouth.

"Okay." Dong Yun is also a crisp and crisp person, and immediately took Fan Li to the thatched hut where they lived before, but just like Dong Yun said, the house was empty, and only a tea cup was left on the table.

Fan Li was disappointed, thinking that he would be able to see Yiguang and complete Shi Gong's entrustment, but he didn't expect to be overjoyed.

Wen Chong picked up the teacup casually and said in surprise: "Hey, this teacup is still warm?" ”

Fan Li was taken aback, and hurriedly took the teacup, and sure enough, as the text said, the tea still had residual temperature, that is to say...... The people in the room had just left.

Dong Yun immediately said: "She shouldn't be able to go far, I'll chase it now." ”

"Wait." Fan Li called her, looked carefully at the furnishings in the room, and finally stopped on a small cloth bag next to the pillow, after unfolding, there were silver needles of different thicknesses, silver flashing, obviously often wiped.

Dongyun said: "This is Yiguang's belongings, said that it was given by her father, she cherishes it very much, and never leaves her body, how can she pull it here?" ”

Fan Li shook her head, "It's not that she pulled it down, but she didn't leave at all, she still lives here, just leaving temporarily." ”

Wen Chong stroked his palms and smiled: "That's great, let's wait here for her to come back." ”

Dongyun said suspiciously: "You ...... Meet Yiguang? ”

"She is the daughter of an old brother Fan, and she has been looking around for the past few days, but she can be regarded as finding it." Wen Chong said as he lifted the coarse porcelain teapot and wanted to pour himself a glass of water, but he was in a hurry just now, and he didn't even have time to drink his saliva, and he was thirsty all the way.

"Who?" As soon as Wen Chong took a sip of water into his mouth, a cold voice suddenly came from behind him, choking him and coughing,

Fan Li turned around excitedly, although there was a layer of light veil, he was still sure at a glance that the woman in front of him was the daughter of Shi Gong who he saw in the palace that day.
