Su Qingang arranged a strict protection for the crown prince Zhao Yong, and before he could come to his senses, a number of princes and envoys walked in from the door of the banquet hall, including Chen Xu, the prime minister of Wei, Tian Cheng, the secretary of Qi, and so on.

Su Qin got up and went to the door to meet everyone, and behind him, the crown prince Zhao Yong also stood up, he slapped his face to welcome the princes and envoys, this is the time when the prince shows his face in front of the princes of the world, how dare he be lazy and rude.

Su Qin greeted everyone one by one, led them to the prince, and introduced the envoys to the prince Zhao Yong, the prince and the envoys bowed and saluted, bowed to each other, said hello, and worked for a quarter of an hour before giving up.

Su Qin later grabbed Chen Xu's hand, let him to the north seat where he was, and sat down next to him. Su Qin had something on his mind, and he wanted to ask Chen Xu about the whereabouts of Jiang He, who was known as the lieutenant of the Wei State Forbidden Military Academy.

Chen Xu was also willing to be with Su Qin, and the two acquaintances could chat privately at the banquet, so he happily followed Su Qin with a personal entourage.

There are certain rules for attending a dinner on such occasions, and the envoys of various countries can bring one or two of their closest retinues, so that someone can take care of them in front of them, and if necessary, they also play a role in personal protection.

This is also Su Qin's intention to ask Sun Ling to follow him to the banquet, originally he was going to bring Zhou Shao here, but let the funny Qi Wang Tian Bijiang be replaced by Sun Ling, but this is also in line with Su Qin's thoughts, after all, Sun Ling's martial arts are many times higher than Zhou Shao.

After the two sat down side by side, Su Qin glanced at Chen Xu's entourage and found that it was not a person with a scar on his face at all, knowing that he had not brought Jiang He here.

He then quietly asked Chen Xudao: "I wonder if Wei Ning, the captain in the Wei State Mission, has returned to the upper house where you stayed?" Do you have any whereabouts? ”

Su Qin asked two questions in a row, obviously very urgent, but Chen Xu shook his head and said, "When I set off to go to the banquet, I specially sent someone to his room to see it, Wei Ning hasn't even returned yet?" I don't know what he did, he didn't see anyone in life, he didn't see a corpse in death, he didn't have a system. When I go back to Ming Wei, I will punish him heavily. ”

Su Qin let out an "oh" and nodded slightly, he didn't say anything more, feeling a little disappointed. I thought: "I'm afraid that before you can show King Wei, Wei Ning will show his true body and assassinate the prince of Zhao." Will he be able to return to Wei again? ”

Chen Xu saw that Su Qin was thoughtful, and he didn't know what his intentions were, Chen Xu thought of Su Qin's words that told him not to bring Wei Ning to the banquet, and he comforted himself: "However, didn't Ji Zi repeatedly ask me not to bring this person to the banquet?" It's good now, there is no need to guard against it at all, and he himself is absent. ”

Chen Xu said that he laughed mockingly, and Su Qin also smiled bitterly, not wanting to embarrass Chen Xu. He replied, "Good, good! ”

But Su Qin was secretly worried in his heart: "Alas, I'm afraid that Jiang He, who is only afraid of Wei Ning, will not be absent from tonight's banquet." If he shows up out of nowhere, that's the big trouble. ”

Su Qingang whispered two or three words to Chen Xu, his eyes inadvertently swept over the seat opposite, but he was immediately attracted to his gaze, and he suddenly found a real trouble, which appeared in front of him unexpectedly.

It turned out that Chen Zhi, the envoy of the Chu State, arrived at the scene of the dinner party, and after he came in, he led his two retinues and sat down on the seats on the south side.

Chen Zhen's seat was just opposite Su Qin, and he was facing north and south. First of all, Chen Xu saw his cousin, Chen Zhi, the envoy of the Chu State, and waved his hand at Chen Zhi, his demeanor attracted Su Qin's attention.

Su Qin looked in the direction of Chen Zhi's waving hand, and first saw Chen Zhi, who he was particularly reluctant to deal with, and as soon as his gaze shifted slightly, he saw one of his personal attendants sitting on Chen Zhi's right side, that person was wearing a large square-shaped crown, and the crown edge was pressed very low, almost covering less than half of his face.

If no one noticed, he thought it was just a nameless entourage beside Chen Zhi, but this person's figure was very familiar to Su Qin, he almost didn't have to look at his face, just from the silhouette of this person's figure, he could tell who he was.

Su Qin stared at the entourage vigorously, looked at it for a while, and then came out of his mouth: "Senior Brother Zhang, it turned out to be you!" The person on the other side clearly heard Su Qin's words, but turned his head to look behind him, avoiding making eye contact with Su Qin.

Su Qin's voice was not very high, but it only alarmed the two people around him, one on the left and one on the right, it was Sun Ling and Chen Xu.

Sun Ling looked over strangely with Su Qin's gaze, and also saw that that person was very similar to Zhang Yi. Zhang Yi lived in Sun Bin Mansion with Mr. Guigu for half a year, and Sun Ling assumed the name Sun Fu at that time, and nominally served as a housekeeper for Sun Bin, but in fact secretly protected Sun Bin's safety.

Sun Ling certainly had an impression of Zhang Yi, and he was also closely attracted by the personal entourage beside Chen Zhi, but he didn't dare to rashly affirm that that person was Zhang Yi.

At this time, the person who was even more surprised than Sun Ling was Chen Xu, he saw that the personal entourage was very similar to Zhang Yi, and when he heard Su Qin's voice, he could almost conclude that this person was Zhang Yi.

What surprised Chen Xu the most was when did Zhang Yi and Chen Zhi get together? Since Zhang Yi acted as Chen Zhen's personal attendant, he must have lived in the upper house of Handan, and he had been living in the same guest house with himself, but why did he know nothing about it?

Chen Xu relied on his relationship with Chen Zhi and was curious about Zhang Yi's appearance, so he stood up and walked over. Chen Zhi saw Chen Xu and Su Qin pointing at the place where he was, and he seemed to understand what the two of them were discussing. Seeing his cousin coming again, it was impossible for him to escape the past.

Chen Zhi sat down and didn't get up, bowed to his brother Chen Xu, and greeted: "Say hello to Brother Xu!" ”

Chen Xu waved his hand at Chen Zhi, signaling him to be polite, and then his eyes were fixed on the person beside Chen Zhi who looked like Zhang Yi, and that person seemed to be deliberately avoiding Chen Xu's gaze at first, but then he found that he couldn't avoid it, so he simply calmed down and looked directly at Chen Xu.

Chen Xu's mouth opened wide in surprise, and he couldn't say a word for a long time, just because that person was clearly Zhang Yi, and he thought to himself: "There are probably no two people in the world who are so similar, in terms of appearance and demeanor, they are exactly the same." ”

Chen Xu couldn't bear his surprise, he hesitated, and asked the man in a low voice: "If I'm not mistaken, isn't this benevolent brother Mr. Zhang Yi?" ”

Chen Xu didn't know it in his heart, so he didn't seem confident enough to ask, and the other party's answer was enough to surprise him. I saw that the man calmly arched his hand at Chen Xu, and replied calmly: "Brother Chen, don't come unharmed, Brother Chen guessed correctly, it is Zhang Yi below." ”

Chen Xu came out with an "ah", he couldn't believe his ears, and it took him a while to realize that he had heard correctly. He arched his hand at Zhang Yi and replied, "Mr. Zhang, don't come unharmed, but ...... here?" ”

When Chen Yu found out that the other party was really Zhang Yi, his first reaction was: "Aren't you Zhang Yi the prime minister of the Qin State?" How dare you come to such a place, this is the base camp of Hezong - Handan of Zhao State! ”

But Chen Xu is a humble gentleman, and he and Zhang Yi also have old friends, so it is inconvenient to show hostility in person, so when he speaks, he seems to be slurred.

Zhang Yi is such a smart person, he has already heard Chen Xu's incomprehension from Chen Xu's intermittent questioning. Zhang Yi remained silent and said: "Even if this is the Longtan Tiger's Den, others can come, why can't I Zhang Yi come?" I am not the prime minister of the Qin State now, but the deputy of the doctor Chen Zhishang of the Chu State. Do you want to take a look at the letter of appointment of the king of Chu? ”

Zhang Yi's words seemed very unkind, as if they were hostile, Chen Xu couldn't help but tighten in his heart, and thought: "The taste of this old friend turning his face is really uncomfortable, it used to be very kind to each other, but now they are so angry, as if they want to swallow each other." ”

Chen Xu didn't know how to answer Zhang Yi for a while, his face showed hesitation, and he said, "Well, ah......"

Chen Zhen, who was beside Zhang Yi, saw that his brother was frozen by Zhang Yi's words, he stepped forward to play a round for the two of them, and said: "Brother Xu, don't worry about this matter, Mr. Zhang Yi does have the appointment document of the King of Chu, and he is the deputy envoy of the Chu State Mission this time." I didn't tell Su Qin and you before, I just didn't want to do much. Now on this formal banquet occasion, of course Mr. Zhang Yi wants to participate. ”

Chen Xu listened to Chen Zhen's explanation, then borrowed the ladder to go downstairs and said, "Oh, then I understand, I see." I'm just curious, I don't mean to object to you Zhang Yi coming to the banquet, don't get me wrong. ”

Chen Xu felt aggrieved in his heart, and he wanted to explain a few words to Zhang Yi, but looking at Zhang Yi's expression, as if he was ignoring himself, he also sneered and turned back to his seat.

Where could Chen Xu guess Zhang Yi's thoughts, and missed the opportunity to capture the crown prince Zhao Yong at the foot of Huo Tai Mountain, Gongsun Yan soon learned that Chen Xu might have leaked to Su Qin that Qin and Wei jointly rounded up the crown prince of Zhao State.

Gongsun Yan originally coveted Chen Xu's position as the prime minister of Wei and wanted to replace him, which made Chen Xu hate him to the root of his teeth. When he relayed the news to Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi also had a grudge against Senior Brother Su Qin's close friend Chen Xu.

Chen Xu himself was still in the dark, he took the initiative to contact Zhang Yi, the original intention was to say hello to an old friend, greetings, Chen Xu was originally a person who likes to make friends, which is also a natural move out of his nature. However, Zhang Yi showed no mercy to his old friend, as the so-called words were not speculative for more than half a sentence, and an insurmountable ditch was separated in an instant.
