Tian Jian followed Meng Ao and Cai Ze into the camp.

Cai Ze was the only one in the camp, surrounded by dense bamboo slips, with a focused expression. After thinking for a moment with the brush in his hand, he lowered his head and wrote carefully with the pen.

Hearing the footsteps, Cai Ze frowned slightly, and said unhappily: "Didn't you say it?" Put the food that was delivered to me for a while, and then eat it when I'm done. ”

Tian Jian nodded when he heard this, this is the demeanor of a national warrior.

Hearing the footsteps getting louder and louder, Cai Ze finally put down the brush in his hand and raised his head, but he exclaimed in surprise and said in surprise: "Your Highness, why are you here?" ”

Tian Jian smiled and took off the coat on his body.

The rainwater on the finely woven cloak dripped slowly down the furrow between the straws, but there was not the slightest sign of dampness in the clothes.

Tian Jian moved the muscles and bones on his body, and said with a smile on his lips: "Is Cai Zhan's matter finished?" If not, then the palace and General Meng and the commander of the guard will sit next to each other, waiting for Cai Zhan's affairs to be dealt with, and the palace will not be in a hurry. ”

Cai Ze's face was a little red, and he got up and said, "As a minister, how can you let the lord wait, that's disrespectful." ”

Tian Jian bowed slightly, it seems that Cai Ze's cautious and subtle personality has not changed.

Historically, Cai Zexi went to Qin to persuade Fan Ju to give up his phase, saying that the merits and abilities of the ministers Wen Chong, Shang Ying, and Wu Qi were the most important ministers of the country, but they died, and the trust of Guanyue King Goujian, Qin Xiaogong, and Chu Mourning King was also unique for a while, Prime Minister, is your merit comparable to those three? Does King Qin's trust in you be as good as those three monarchs?

When Fan Ju heard this, he immediately resigned from his illness and persuaded Qin Zhao Wang Yingji to make Cai Ze prime minister.

And what is ironic is that Cai Ze has been the prime minister for a few months, because someone has slandered him, Cai Ze has been the prime minister for a few months, and he immediately resigned and was given a gang to become a king.

"Cai Zhan, this palace has something to discuss with you." Tian Jiandao.

Cai Ze made a gesture and said, "Your Highness, please say, the minister will be ready for you." ”

"Cai Zhanshi, can you know about the recent changes in my Qi country?" Tian Jian asked.

Cai Ze shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Chen has been in the school field recently, but he never knew about it. ”

Meng Ao laughed loudly when he heard this: "It seems that this wise man has been sealed for a few days, but he is not as good as a country man. ”

Cai Ze's face turned red, glared at Meng Ao, and bowed: "Please also ask Your Highness to speak up." ”

"General Meng, say it!" Tian Jiandao.

Meng Ao cleared his throat and said, "Our Qi army captured Tao County a few days ago, and now the Qin State is plotting to unite Han and Wei to send troops to attack our Qi State. ”

Tian Jian nodded and then said: "The matter is roughly like this, the palace will send an envoy to the state of Chu in a few days to persuade the king of Chu to unite with my state of Qi to resist the armies of the three kingdoms of Qin, Han and Wei. The meaning of the palace, when the time comes, bring the vassals of the imperial palace, and the plan of Lianchu will definitely succeed. ”

Cai Ze did not agree immediately, but frowned, thought for a while, and said with his brows stretched: "Your Highness's envoy this time, it is not necessary to bring the vassals of the Imperial Palace, and the training of nearly 10,000 new troops cannot be separated from the help of the ministers." As the saying goes: "Before the soldiers and horses move, the grain and grass go first." "The daily supplies of this new army are like a chariot without the reins to hold the horse, and the chariot cannot move a single step without the help of the ministers."

Tian Jian's brows tightened, his face sank a little, and said, "Then you mean that you don't want to go to Chu State with the palace." ”

When Cai Ze heard this, he immediately said: "The minister has no such intention, but this new army cannot do without the assistance of subordinate officials." ”

"What does Cai Zhan mean?" Tian Jian stared at Cai Ze closely, this person is talented, if he is the same as in history, if he is timid, his heart will not be too soft.

Meng Ao and Wei Qing on the side vaguely felt a trace of murderous aura emanating from Tian Jian's body, especially Meng Ao, who had experienced battlefield killing, and it was easier for him to capture that qi.

Cai Ze's head bowed, and he said in a low voice: "The minister means that the prince's secretary Li Xin stayed, and the prince's guest Kong Zhenke went to the state of Chu with his ministers and His Royal Highness." ”

Tian Jian's tense face relaxed, and said with a smile: "Cai Zhan, take it easy, it looks like this palace is going to kill you." ”

After speaking, he patted Cai Ze on the shoulder.

When Cai Ze heard this, a chill suddenly flashed in his heart, if he answered the wrong word, then the prince really wanted to kill me, did the prince mean to warn me not to be careful.

These careful thoughts flashed in Cai Ze's heart, but he still smiled and said: "Your Highness, Rong Chen told me that the new army's food and grass materials have been consumed in this half month. ”

。。。。。。

A slightly shabby tile house in the eastern city of Linzi in the Qi Kingdom.

The drizzle slowly beat the roof tiles, and the crisp sound was like a beautiful music in the court, ticking and ticking, and it had a sense of leisure.

However, under this tile, there is a crying sound, like mourning.

"Uncle and nephew want to enter the palace as a palace guard and seek a few money." A kneeling teenager bowed his head and said in a deep voice.

This young man is about seventeen or eighteen years old, the beard at the corner of his mouth is a little thin, and there is still a little childish fluff on his face, but this young man, at this moment, his face is full of perseverance.

The rain on the tiles fell quietly, and with a sound, a drop of rain turned into a puddle.

"Yi Yanzi, you are an uncle who grew up, originally you had nothing to do with being a guard in the palace, and the palace guards wanted as long as the family background was innocent, but there was that incident in the front file, and now the officials and patrols in the city are arresting people everywhere, you are a ranger, how do you want your uncle to arrange." A middle-aged man sitting on the bed said.

"Uncle, nephew knows that uncle is embarrassed, but mother's illness can't be delayed." The boy cried out with tears in his eyes.

The middle-aged man sighed when he heard this, and said, "Yi Yanzi, uncle knows, don't complain about this matter." ”

The young man said with tears in his eyes: "Uncle, my nephew knows that my uncle has already scattered all his family wealth, and my uncle has done enough in this matter." ”

The middle-aged man sighed with emotion: "When my father died early, it was all up to my sister-in-law and eldest brother to pull me up, and now that my eldest brother is not here, my sister-in-law has this disease, and my uncle is ashamed!" ”

The breeze outside the house gently stirred the reed curtains, and also blew the tears in the corners of the young man's eyes, which slid down his cheeks and soaked the loess on the ground into brown.

"Uncle, is there really no hope?" The boy refuses to give up the last straw, just like a drowning man refuses to give up his last life.

The middle-aged man was about to refuse, but an idea flashed through his mind, and said, "Uncle has a way, and there is only one way to do it for now." ”

The young man's eyes flashed with hope, and he asked urgently, "What way?" As long as I can save my mother, I can do it from birth to death. [Ask for recommendation votes, ask for collections]
