The next day, Su Qin simply packed his luggage, rode the captured war horse, and reluctantly said goodbye to Shi Chang, until he walked out of two or three miles, when Su Qin looked back, he still saw Old Man Shi standing at the gate of the courtyard looking at him, and his tears were rushing down like unstoppable springs.

After Su Qin left Zhongnan Mountain, he thought about where he should go, whether to go back to Luoyang or Xianyang?

He was quite hesitant, but he decided to go to Xianyang to say goodbye to Wei Wei first, and he also wanted to take a second look at Meng Ting after the last day.

He knew that he had been there for nearly a year, and the situation there would inevitably change a lot, but what Su Qin didn't expect was that the changes were far beyond his imagination.

Just when Su Qin was far away in the Guishuang tribe, his junior brother Zhang Yi said goodbye to his master, Mr. Guigu, and set off from Qi to Luoyang to find out the whereabouts of him and Su Dai.

It turned out that when Tian Ming returned to the border of Qi State, he saw Mr. Guigu and others who had evacuated first, and reported that he and the Su Qin brothers were separated from each other, but he also concealed his dereliction of duty and irresponsible escape.

Mr. Guigu waited for the Su Qin brothers at the border, but after three days, they still didn't arrive, so he had no choice but to follow Sun Bin's advice and return to Linzi City, the capital of Qi State.

Mr. Guigu has lived in Sun Bin's mansion in Linzi City for a long time, and he has not been until Sun Bin chooses a good place to live in the hermitage, just to continue to wait for the Su brothers, hoping that they can find them, but they are still nowhere to be seen, which makes Mr. Guigu anxious.

He felt that it would not be a way to go on like this for a long time, so he decided to take the initiative to send Zhang Yi to find out.

After Zhang Yi came out, he thought on the way: "Where to find it, I don't have a clue for a while, so it's better to go to Su Qin's hometown in Luoyang City to have a look." ”

He came to Luoyang, and it didn't take much effort to find out the address of the Su family, it turned out that the Su family opened a north-south goods store in Luoyang, and there were three big stores in the city, which were well-known in the local area.

Zhang Yi went to visit one of the Su family's shops in the Luoyang market, but unexpectedly met Su Dai who was taking care of business there.

When the two saw each other, they were very excited, holding each other's hands tightly, and asking for warmth. After a while, Zhang Yi asked about the whereabouts of his brother Su Qin, but saw Su Dai crying sadly.

Zhang Yi was taken aback and hurriedly asked. Su Dai first briefly talked about the situation when the two broke up, and then went on to talk about what happened to him after that.

He escaped from Gongsun Yan and Gao Shengren that day, stayed in the mountains for a day, and when it was confirmed that the Qin people had left Yunmeng Mountain, he walked out of the mountain.

Su Daiyuan also thought about whether to follow the people of Qin and find out about Su Qin's news. But at that time, he was just out of the tiger's mouth, and he was seriously injured, where could he complete the tracking. In desperation, he could only return to his hometown in Luoyang first, and wait for his injuries to recover before making plans.

Su Dai returned to Luoyang and found that great changes had taken place in his family. Su Qin's wife, Fan Han, left the Su family a few years ago and returned to live in her parents' home. She was originally the daughter of a big merchant in Luoyang, and her family was well-off. Her parents never let her stay alive and widowed, so they simply left her in her parents' house and never sent her back.

Su Qin's father sent someone to pick up his daughter-in-law home several times, but he was closed every time. Later, he heard that after Fan Han returned to her parents' house, he had married a new love, and he was so angry that he fell seriously ill.

In a fit of rage, he left Su Qin's children in the mansion and did not allow them to go with their mother. However, Fan Han may also be worried that his children will disturb his new life, so he has not sent anyone to pick him up.

But the poor children were still young, and their parents were separated. The eldest of the two children is a daughter, named Su Yu, who is only eight years old, and the younger is a boy, named Su Rui, who is only six years old. There was no one to accompany and take care of them at home, and Su's father wanted to entrust it to Su Qin's eldest brother and sister-in-law, but her family was busy doing business, so how could she agree.

When Father Su saw Su Dai coming back, he asked about Su Qin's whereabouts, but Su Dai didn't dare to tell the truth, so he lied and said that he went to Qin to lobby Qin Jun. Father Su saw that his son left the family business alone and went to show off his tongue, his wife also ran away, and the children couldn't take care of it, so he scolded at that time, he really hated Su Qin.

It happened that Su Dai arrived home, and Su's father said that he would not let him leave casually anymore, and Shengsheng would leave him behind, so he would take care of the shops in the Luoyang Bazaar, and let him do his duty for Su Qin.

Because Su Dai sympathized with the plight of his two children, he stayed for the time being, taking care of the shop and taking care of his two nephews at the same time. Almost a year has passed before I know it.

Zhang Yi listened to Su Dai talk about Su Qin's family affairs, and he himself burst into tears, he remembered his own family, and the situation was similar, but his wife Yao Yue was more honest and didn't need to worry too much.

Su Dai found that Zhang Yi was in tears, and hurriedly comforted him a few words. When he heard that Zhang Yi was ordered by his master to come to look for Su Qin, he also aroused his wish: why didn't he worry about his brother's whereabouts and wanted to go to find out.

So, he suggested to Zhang Yi: simply go to Qin to find out Su Qin's whereabouts together. After Zhang Yi heard this, he clapped his hands and cheered, he couldn't ask for it. The two hit it off.

That night, Zhang Yi and Su Dai went to discuss with Su's father. As soon as Su Dai introduced Zhang Yi, Su's father put on a cold face and ignored him. Su's father thinks that what Su Qin is doing is not doing his job, so he also has a deep prejudice against Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi is tenacious and introverted, he can see Su's father's dissatisfaction, but on the surface he is still nothing.

Su Dai specially emphasized to Su's father that they were going to find Su Qin, and when Su's father heard it, he was moved, he himself hadn't seen this son for many years, although he scolded and scolded him, he actually missed it very much in his heart.

In addition, there are also Su Qin's two children, who are also waiting for Su Qin's return. Thinking of this, Su's father not only readily agreed, but also offered to fund the two of them.

Zhang Yi and Su Dai disguised themselves as merchants selling leather goods, moved half a cart of leather goods from the Su family's store, and went to Qin on the road.

Su Dai had done business and was familiar with the rules of buying and selling, so he was very smooth when he passed the checkpoints, and the sentinels he met along the way regarded them as real businessmen.

The two walked for three days, and when they arrived in Xianyang, they first found a hotel called "Xichang Inn" to stay. They were not in a hurry to sell the goods, but first searched for Su Qin's whereabouts.

The two of them wandered around the market in Xianyang, looking east and west, seemingly touching the goods, but in fact, their attention was not on the goods at all, but on eavesdropping on people's chatter.

Su Dai had already discussed with Zhang Yi, starting with someone close to Qin Jun Yingsi, to find out if Qin Jun had met Su Qin and whether he had given him an official position.

The reason why he chose the bazaar to find out the news is because the people there are mixed and well-informed, and Su Dai is very familiar with the doorway of the bazaar, so it is easier to start.

Sure enough, one day, they heard a Zhongshu Ling who claimed to be the court guard of Xianyang Palace, this person was named Li Wen, he liked jade, and often went in and out of the market to buy goods. Su Dai and Zhang Yi decided to start with Li Wen.
