The more high-minded a person is, the less his fate belongs to him. The ordinary people always feel that their fate is bumpy and unprovoked, but they don't know that the higher they stand, the heavier their burdens will be, and the trajectory of their lives will become more and more out of their hands.

Watching Xinzheng Cheng gradually disappear in front of his eyes, Zhong Ji may understand for the first time that the so-called fate is not up to herself, and this is probably the case.

When King Han told him that he had decided to let her marry Zhong Ji to Zhao Kingdom, Zhong Ji was slightly stunned at first, and then tried all kinds of ways to stay. However, I don't know why, King Han, who has always had a preference for himself, seems to have made up his mind to let himself marry to Zhao State.

"Why do you have to be me?" Zhong Ji's eyes rippled with tears, looking at her father, who was obedient to her words, turned into a ruthless politician, and the deep love in her heart turned into endless resentment at this moment.

"If your sister didn't have an accident, my father wouldn't be so ruthless." Seeing that Zhong Ji was relieved, King Han also softened his heart, and said lovingly: "But although you and your sister are not the same mother, they have always respected and loved each other. This time I was sick, and you were mostly by your side. King Han paused, looked at Zhong Ji and said, "The most important thing is that your sister's illness doesn't want others to know. ”

Zhong Ji was shocked, thinking to herself, is her father planning to deceive Zhao Guo? "Father, if my sister is seriously ill, she can get married later, why do you have to be in such a hurry?"

"Nonsense!" King Han reprimanded, "Not to mention, the date of the wedding is chosen by both parties, and there is no reason to change it, not to mention, if the wedding date is changed, wouldn't it mean that Bo Ji has other hidden feelings?" ”

"However, Sister's condition is good and bad, how can she go through this bumpy road?"

"That's why the widow arranged for you to accompany you to cover up for your sister."

"What about the other sisters?"

"Because your sister's illness is only known to you, and although others understand the cold, they have no way of knowing that her illness is so serious."

"But father, my sister's condition is geometric, and when she arrives in Handan, she can't hide it!"

"Idiot, when you get to Handan, the road is bumpy, or your sister is not adapted, it has nothing to do with us. And Zhao Guo, how can he still bother with us? Speaking of this, I don't know why it was obviously a crazy and ruthless plan, but King Han suddenly felt a little sad.

Zhong Ji looked at this strange father in surprise, it seemed that this father, who had been amiable and respectable just now, suddenly turned into a demon. The skin wrapped around his body was nothing more than a gorgeous coat after all. She didn't understand what it was that made him a loving father for a while, and a cold person for a while.

Even now, when Xinzheng has disappeared in front of her, she seems to be able to see her father standing on the tower of Xinzheng, looking at the back of her departure. An emotion that could not be said to be resentment or longing spread through her.

"Look no further, that place has nothing to do with us anymore." Bo Ji, who was still weak, looked at Zhong Ji's eyes full of sorrow, and said lightly, "From now on, you and I will be people of Zhao Kingdom." Everything in Korea is just our appearance. ”

"Sister!" Zhong Ji looked at Bo Ji's equally cold expression, and wondered why the sister, who had always been gentle and close, became so cold.

"Say goodbye to your innocence." Bo Ji said, turned his face away, looked at the mountains and rivers that walked around him one by one, and said lightly: "This is the real world. ”

Tian Buli watched as the surrounding camp tents were set up one by one, and habitually walked around the camp. Seeing something inappropriate, he quickly called the soldiers beside him and immediately dealt with it. By the time he finished his rounds, he had already missed dinner, so he had to ask the soldiers to heat up a hot meal for him to eat.

"Sir, you're really worried." While eating the leftovers, his scholar complained: "Although it is your job to inspect the barracks and manage the expenses, it is really rare to see someone as desperate as you. If you look at other people, they are either drinking wine and eating meat, or they are competing and frolicking, and you are busy all day long. It's a big deal. ”

"You know what!" Tian Buli bit a piece of cold rabbit meat that was already stiff, ate it hard, and muttered: "The biggest skill of our two masters this time is to be low-key. Do you understand? ”

"I don't understand." The scholar glared and said: "Why are they like Mr. Sima and Mr. Li Dui, they are all full of energy and arrogant, and even the subordinates with them look down on people, but you are the only one who has the least sense of existence among these gentlemen." What's the point of doing that? ”

"I'll tell you too. That's what we want this time around. Tian Buli said, "Of course Sima Qian is proud, he is Fuding's staff, and the benefactor is in the same team, the better he performs, the easier it is to be treated, and when he becomes an official in the future, he is not afraid of other people's eyes." Li Dui is also in the same situation, what do you think he said in front of King Han, no one else knows. Hey, I don't dare to say anything about the others, at least Sima Qian and I don't know any less about the twists and turns than he Li Dui. It's just that everyone saved face and let him grab the first prize. ”

"Uh, what does that mean?" The scholar took a sip of soup and asked suspiciously, in his opinion, why did everyone not like to participate in such an opportunity to make contributions.

"Stupid! I don't want to know who is the envoy this time? ”

"Lord Sikong. Oh, by the way, he's Li Dui's benefactor. The scholar said as if he understood.

"Got it. Sikong is Li Dui's benefactor, so he naturally hopes that Li Dui can be a little more brilliant, and when the time comes, he will be promoted if he can't keep it, at least in a position of real power. At this time, whoever dares to snatch his jackpot will be considered to have a bond with Lord Sikong. Don't say it's high ascension when you go back, it's good not to be yin to death. Tian Buli said with a sneer.

"I see." The scholar nodded, indicating that he understood, "Then you just don't do anything, why do you have to work so hard?" No matter how good you are, in the eyes of Sikong and Xiao Zongbo, you are not as close as your own people. ”

"Hehe, if you think like that, it's all over." Tian Buli wiped his mouth and said slowly: "Think about it, why did the king send Li Zhuo over and Zhao Guang again. If the greeting envoy must be from the Gong family, he is more qualified than Zhao Guang, but why is it him? ”

"I don't know." The scholar said honestly.

"You know, you don't have to be a scholar." Tian Buli said with a smile, "Although everyone thinks that this is the king's intention to promote Zhao Guang, but he is the king, if he really wants to promote Zhao Guang, why bother?" Tian Buli put the bowl heavily on a few cases and said, "Lord Situ said that our monarch is very deep in the city, and his every move is quite meaningful. In this way, if Zhao Guang has no other mission, I don't believe it. ”

"Well, that's a bit weird. But what does the gentleman think? ”

"Simple, it's nothing more than supervision and inspection." He stood up, walked to the basin, scooped up a handful of water, and said as he washed his face. The scholar knew that he was going out, otherwise he wouldn't have freshened up at this time, so he habitually stepped forward to help him tidy up his appearance. "One Zhao Guang, one Li Zhuo. Two people control everyone's life and death, even if anyone wants to do something out of the ordinary, it's impossible. After all, this team includes almost all the factions in the court. ”

"Oh, I see. In that case, you're really going to have to put your tail between your legs. The scholar said seriously.

"That's not true, the most important thing is to let those who should see it see, and those who should know it." He threw the towel to the scholar, straightened his belt, and said to the scholar, "No problem." ”

"No problem." The scholar said, "Are you still going to inspect the tents of the two ladies?" "From the beginning of being in charge of logistics and scheduling, Tian Buli must go to the vicinity of Bo Ji's camp to check after eating every day, although he is not qualified to enter the tent, but he will always let the soldiers guarding the door know that he has been here.

"One more question!" With that, he finally finished tidying up his appearance, "Let's go." ”

When the soldier brought Tian Buli's greeting, Zhong Ji was watching the imperial doctor treat Bo Ji. Before leaving, King Han specially explained to Zhao Cheng that Bo Ji was delicate and frail, and hoped to let the imperial doctor accompany him and take care of him all the way. Zhao Cheng naturally would not refuse this little thing, not to mention that he had just reached an important trade agreement with King Han, and he couldn't lose face on the other party, so he naturally agreed. This allowed the imperial doctor to smoothly enter the team to welcome the relatives.

"This Tian Buru, who comes to report every day, is really a careful person." Zhong Ji looked at Bo Ji's still somewhat pale face and said unintentionally.

"Not only a careful person, but also a person with a heart. However, who made him the most powerful person in this team? ”

"He did it on purpose?" From Boji's words, Zhong Ji seemed to hear the meaning of her words.

"Sort of. It's nothing more than currying favor, hoping to say a few good words for him in front of King Zhao. Bergi said lightly.

"That's how it is."

"Pretty much. Although we arrived in Zhao State, we need the support of ministers, otherwise with the identity of a Korean princess, we may not be able to suppress King Zhao's harem. Now, though, it's a little too early. Bo Ji thought for a while, and said to the maid behind him: "Go, send out the pastries on a few cases, and say, 'With Mr. Laotian's concern, these Korean pastries are not a tribute, I hope Mr. will laugh at them'." ”

"Yes." So saying, the maid took the pastry and prepared to go out.

"Wait." Zhong Ji said, "Why don't I send it." ”

"You can't go, and I can't go. Otherwise, it is easy to get him into trouble. And even this plate of pastries will probably cause him a little trouble. Becky said, suddenly smiling mysteriously, "But that's fine, let's see what he's capable of." ”
