Ran Fei rode on a tall horse, bid farewell to the prince and Tian Dan, turned around and returned to the north with his men and several carts of treasures.

Three days later, when Ran Fei returned to Jiyang, he found that at the gate of Jiyang City, Miss Shan was waiting for him with a few attendants. Ran Fei was also very happy to see Miss Shan, the two met, but Ran Fei just looked at Miss Shan and smiled, speechless. Miss Shan smiled and immediately said, "What? Unhappy to see me? Don't even say hello? ”

Ran Fei replied: "Oh, I'm so happy, I'm so happy that I can't speak." ”

Everyone looked at the two of them, and they were all happy for them, in the hearts of Ran Fei's brothers, Miss Shan had already become their sister-in-law. It's just that it hasn't been through the door yet.

Ran Fei and Miss Shan rode side by side towards the mansion, the people saw Ran Fei, they all bowed to him respectfully, Ran Fei watched Jiyang get better and better day by day, and the people were getting more and more food and clothing day by day, and they were very happy. But when he thought of the attitude that King Qi and the others had towards him and his brothers, and did not care about the situation in the north at all, Ran Fei was very angry in his heart.

Back at the mansion, Zhang Dali saw a few more carriages loaded with finances, and asked Ran Fei: "What's going on?" ”

Ran Fei replied: "The prince wants to win us over, send it." ”

Zhang Dali was a little surprised: "You accepted it?" ”

Ran Fei: "Yes! ”

Zhang Dali: "How do we explain to the queen?" ”

Ran Fei replied directly: "What else do you want to explain?" We are now the prince's people, are we still afraid of her? ”

Zhang Dali was very worried when he saw Ran Fei say this, although he didn't know who killed the prince's mother, but would Ran Fei give up if he did this?

Zhang Dali felt that danger was approaching, and he had to be prepared.

The prince gave Ran Fei a lot of property at the gate of Linzi City and soon reached the queen's ears, and the queen was very angry when she heard that Ran Fei did not refuse. On the one hand, the queen thinks that this Ran Fei is a villain, and on the other hand, she thinks that Ran Fei is really a short-sighted person, if he follows them, money, a trivial matter.

This is a woman's thinking, she only sees the surface, but she doesn't know that the reason why Ran Fei is really unwilling to follow the Hou family is that the Hou family has never trusted him, and the reason is that Yuan Qi once killed the people of the Hou family.

Although it was the queen who ordered Ran Fei to kill the prince's mother, Ran Fei did not introduce the killer to the queen, even if the prince found out about the abnormality at that time, unless someone was caught and the murderer admitted it himself, otherwise, the prince would never think that Ran Fei killed his mother.

And this is also Ran Fei's strategy, because of the relationship between Ran Fei and the queen, too few people know.

The queen personally wrote a letter and asked Ran Fei: "Why did you accept the prince's gift?" ”

After Ran Fei read the letter, he burned it directly, and then went to the Sword Casting Hall, picked a good sword and a good bow, and found someone to pack it carefully, and asked someone to send it to the prince.

The reason why Ran Fei did this is very simple, if he sends money himself, then the character of loving money shown in front of the prince will be wasted, so he can't send money, he can only send some good things, and it can't be too expensive.

The prince smiled the moment he received the things: "This Ran Fei, now the north is getting richer and richer, and he doesn't dare to embezzle, and he only sent me these two things after accepting such a big gift from me, it's really too picky." But that's fine, as long as he doesn't think about the land of my Qi country, I'll give him whatever else he wants! ”

The prince pulled out the long sword, stroked it, and found that the surface of the sword was not very smooth, but there were black lines all over it, this is one of the good knives, due to the excessive carbon content in the steel, some of them are gathered together, showing lines, high hardness, and good toughness.

The prince exclaimed: "Good sword! The north is really powerful, and it can make such a good sword, presumably this Ran Fei also spent some effort. It seems that Ran Fei has the intention to belong, hum! As long as you have the support of the army in your hands, you are not afraid of anyone, and you are such a famous general. ”

Three days later, the queen saw that Ran Fei had not replied, so she was very angry, and picked up a vase next to her directly, but it still reached the ground and shattered.

At this moment, the crown prince was in King Qi's study, asking King Qi to relax his surveillance of the north and withdraw the people from the Hou family.

Of course, the king of Qi knew that the prince befriended Ran Fei, and when he saw the prince interceding for him, he probably guessed in his heart that Ran Fei had already expressed his intention to belong to the prince, since the prince had interceded with him, the king of Qi once again withdrew half of the surveillance troops stationed in the north, most of them were people from the Hou family, and now, except for the military power in the northern border area in the hands of the Hou family, the rest are all back to Ran Fei.

The Hou family was also very angry when they saw that their people were withdrawn from the north, and the head of the Hou family hurriedly convened the family bosses to discuss, and now the north has almost completely separated from them, which is the meaning of the King of Qi, the purpose is to give the prince a chance, so that he can have an army to support him, in order to fight against the powerful Hou family. Everyone kept talking, and the head of the house didn't understand what they meant after listening to it for a long time, and couldn't find a solution, so the head of the house slapped the table hard: "Don't make any noise!" Really, all the rubbish, I have to come to everything personally! ”

At this time, there is one

The young man of the Hou family stepped forward bravely: "Uncle, I have a way to bring the north back under our control. ”

The head of the Hou family looked over, but it was a junior who was not at all inconspicuous, if he didn't look back carefully, he couldn't remember who it was, he paused for a moment and said: "Heh, Hou Qiang's son, yes, what can you do?" ”

"The crown prince is not the king of Qi now, his views can only be used as a reference for the king of Qi, so the decision is still in the hands of the king of Qi, we just need to let the king of Qi not believe in Ran Fei because of the prince's thoughts, or directly let the king of Qi not believe in the prince, in this way, not only may we take back the control of the northern part of our team, but also trip the prince."

The head of the family didn't expect that this usually taciturn child would be able to say such a remark today, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised, but he was right, the power is in the hands of the King of Qi, as long as the King of Qi changes his mind, then the north will still return to our hands.

The head of the family laughed, and everyone was taken aback, because the head of the family generally only laughs when punishing people, but they thought wrong, now the head of the family is old, and people are old, and they will change, he only said: "I didn't expect that such a character can appear in my back family, it's really our blessing!" ”
