Li Dui smiled and said, his expression looked very relaxed.

"Did Lord Xiangguo notice that something was not quite right with King Zhao during this time?" At this time, another minister suddenly said.

Hearing this, the expression on Li Dui's face froze, he lowered his eyes and was silent, but a pair of eyes were flickering uncertainly, as if there were countless thoughts lingering in his mind.

The changes of King Zhao, with his shrewdness and sharpness, how can he not feel it, he is now over half a hundred years old, although he seems to be strong on the surface, but he is already strong in the outside, King Zhao's age is not young, he understands everything, and at the same time, he is also beginning to gather his own strength.

Li Dui put down the wine bottle, where would a person who has held power for a long time be willing to let go, King Zhao slowly became stronger, so that he also felt an inexplicable panic, a crazy thought, quietly took root in his mind.

"Drink, drink." Seeing that the atmosphere was a little silent, Wei Biao also raised his wine glass, diverted the topic and smiled, and the others also noticed Li Dui's strangeness, and immediately dared to talk about this topic, and they chatted with each other.

"By the way, Xiangguo, the soldiers of the brigade who escorted Zhao Fan and others to the Qi State, I will send my general Tian Bai as the prison army, and follow them to the Qi State together, I don't know how?" Wei Biao said suddenly.

"Well, it's okay, Zhao Fan is just a teenager, where can he serve the public, it's good to send a prison guard." Li Dui nodded.

Time passed quickly, the moon gradually tilted to the west, the sun rose below the horizon, Handan City, which had been quiet all night, gradually became lively under the spread of the sun, and with the opening of the city gate, the merchants outside the city also poured into the city and began to sell and trade goods.

Yesterday, Zhao Fan had already told everyone about the plan, and everyone agreed to the arrangement between the former and Lian Po. In the early morning, Zhao Fan, Xu Ying, Xu Xiong and Xu Jia packed their luggage, left Li Mu and the three daughters, and were led by Lian Po all the way to the military camp.

At this moment, in the northeast of Handan City, in this area of the standing army camp, many people gathered, and these were all soldiers who heard that Zhao Fan was going to envoy Qi and came to see the excitement.

Lian Po and Zhao Fan and others just appeared at the gate of the barracks, and found that Li Dui and Wei Biao and others had arrived, Zhao Fan saw Li Dui for the first time, and knew that the former insisted on letting him go to Qi State, so he naturally had no good impression of him in his heart.

"General Lian, this is Zhao Fan, Zhao Lvshuai, he is really a talent, no wonder it will be valued by my king, let him take on this heavy responsibility." Li Dui strode up, he instructed Zhao Fan, and said with a smile.

Zhao Fan's face was calm, he saluted the former, and said indifferently: "Lord Xiangguo has praised it falsely, and this time I will go to Qi Country to live up to the king's trust." ”

Li Dui looked at Zhao Fan, swept over him for a moment, and then laughed and said, "Since this is the case, then we will wait for the good news of Zhao Lushuai, and hope that you can come back safely." ”

A slight murderous intent flashed across Zhao Fan's face, and Li Dui asked himself to envoy Qi Guo, it seemed that it was indeed to help Ye Fei get rid of him. This time he went to the country of Qi, even if the king of Qi did not embarrass himself, it was not certain that someone from Li Dui would secretly harm him, so Zhao Fan also secretly cheered up.

At this time, Wei Biao led a brigade of soldiers over neatly, which was an order from King Zhao to escort Zhao Fan and others to the Qi State. There are also several carriages waiting outside the city, and the carriages carry heavy gifts to deal with the ministers of the Qi country, and it is much more convenient to do things.

"Dang!"

At that moment, the sound of a rock sounded.

Eighteen tiger-backed and sturdy guards walked over from a distance with neat steps, lined up on both sides.

First, four chamberlains stepped out solemnly, followed by eight pretty young palace ladies, whose costumes were mainly purple and red, lined with gold, which looked noble and luxurious.

They were divided into two groups, two men and four women, standing on one side.

"The king has arrived!" The four attendants sang together.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Fan was also shocked in his heart, but he didn't expect that King Zhao would come to see him off in person, and immediately, there was a slight feeling of emotion in his heart. Although he knew that most of King Zhao's move was due to Lian Po and Li Feng, and the two of them had always supported King Zhao, but there was still a touch of joy on Zhao Fan's face.

You can meet the king at this time, and he didn't come to the Warring States in vain.

Seeing this, everyone around suddenly quieted down, kneeling on both sides to take over, even Li Dui stood aside respectfully, not daring to have any rudeness.

Zhao Fan also followed Lian Po and the others to kneel and salute, he lowered his head, and waited for more than ten seconds, a calm and soft voice sounded in front of him: "Zhongqing is flat!" ”

Everyone shouted in unison, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Fan stood up with the crowd, looked up, and just happened to make direct contact with the eyes of King Zhao Huiwen looking at him.

Seeing King Huiwen, Zhao Fan's heart was shocked in vain, and a familiar but unfamiliar feeling arose from the bottom of his heart, it was an extremely strange feeling, as if you knew this person clearly, but you couldn't remember it.

There is also a kind of touch from the blood, which is also slowly born without Zhao Fan himself noticing.

King Huiwen smiled, he may have lived in the palace for a long time and rarely moved, his figure was a little weak, but his height was about eight feet, he put his hands on the flat, made a gesture to get up, and then his eyes fell on Zhao Fan.

King Huiwen's gaze was also stunned, he stared at Zhao Fan in a daze for a long time, and finally fixed his gaze on Zhao Fan's neck, he paused for a few seconds, and a touch of ecstasy suddenly surged under his eyes.

"Ahem, why did the king come in person, this little thing, if you have a minister to do it, it's fine." At this moment, Li Dui also coughed softly.

Li Dui's voice woke up King Huiwen, he was also aware of his gaffe at this moment, he coughed dryly, and said: "Lvshuai Zhao's envoy to Qi this time is not a trivial matter, and the widow naturally has to come in person to rest assured." ”

"By the way, the widow only knows that Zhao Lushuai is the son-in-law of Li Feng, the county guard of Yunzhong County, and I don't know where you are from?" King Huiwen looked at Zhao Fan, and his voice trembled a little.

"Back to the king, the junior general is the Bairen City people's clan, because his parents died, so he took his only sister to Yunzhong City, and then entered the military camp, so he had the honor to serve my Zhao State." Zhao Fan wondered why King Zhao suddenly asked this question, but he naturally didn't dare to ask anything more, so he replied directly.

Hearing this, King Huiwen was slightly stunned, there was a hint of suspicion in his eyes, and he immediately stared at Zhao Fan's neck, his eyes flickered for a moment, and there was also a touch of confusion.

"Sister? Zhao Lvshuai also has a younger sister? ”

Zhao Fan's doubts in his heart were even worse, but he still said honestly: "That's right, but in terms of blood relationship, I am not a sister, because I was picked up by my parents in the forest, and I am just their adopted son." ”

Li Feng and even Lian Po and others knew about this, and there was no need for him to hide anything.

"Sure enough." King Huiwen looked at Zhao Fan in a daze and muttered in his mouth. The excitement on his face was beyond words, and he couldn't help but take a few steps forward, but at this moment, he seemed to think of something, and his steps stopped.

King Zhao's abnormal behavior not only confused Zhao Fan, but also Li Dui, Wei Biao and others also found out, but they didn't say anything, but they felt very strange in their hearts. After all, Zhao Fan didn't have much reputation, how could King Zhao suddenly ask so many questions.

"Oh, I didn't expect Lvshuai Zhao's life experience to be so bizarre. Well, everyone is ready, so let's go out of the city, and officially set off at three o'clock in the afternoon according to the hour set yesterday. King Huiwen's face flickered for a moment, and then he suddenly smiled.

"No!"

As soon as King Zhao's order was given, everyone immediately agreed, and Zhao Fan also walked in front of the soldiers of this brigade, leading the soldiers to stride towards the outside of Handan City.

Behind him, he didn't notice King Zhao Huiwen's gaze, and when he looked at him, he suddenly softened a lot, and a kind of excitement swept deep under his eyes.

……

Outside the city of Handan, there is a military camp that is not very commonly used, which is used occasionally by soldiers who come to defend the city. At this time, several carriages loaded with heavy gifts and hundreds of horses were quietly waiting in this barracks.

Zhao Fan led this brigade of soldiers to stand on the camp, and suddenly found that Wei Biao's general, that is, Tian Bai, the overseer this time, had not yet arrived.

At this moment, King Zhao and Li Dui did not go out of the city, but observed the situation of Zhao Fan and the others below above the city wall, and after a long time, seeing that Zhao Fan and the others had not yet set off, Li Dui also said: "Why don't you set off yet?" Doesn't he want to go? ”

Hearing this, Wei Biao's face was also a little ugly, he paused, and said embarrassedly: "Lord Xiangguo, it seems that Tian Bai has not yet arrived." ”

Li Dui turned his head to look at him, and there was a faint anger on his face, and said, "Didn't you inform him that he was going to leave for Qi at three o'clock in the afternoon today?" ”

"I told him last night, maybe it's because of some delays." Wei Biao's forehead was already faintly sweating, but he was scolding that Tian Bai in his heart, and he hadn't even appeared at the critical moment, so he was really impatient to let King Zhao and Xiangguo Li Dui wait for him here.

Listening to the conversation between the two in his ears, King Zhao Huiwen didn't seem to be dissatisfied, standing quietly on the city wall, his eyes hidden from his slightly drooping eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Under the city, Zhao Fan in the camp, his brows gradually wrinkled, he looked up at the sky, stretched out his hand to summon Xu Ying and Xu Xiong, and the three of them set up the benchmark for measuring the shadow and the leaky pot for measuring time, and continued to wait for Tian Bai's arrival.

Everyone was waiting for Tian Bai, but they didn't know that the former was drinking and eating in the mansion at the moment, this Tian Bai had always been arrogant, and he was very valued by Wei Biao and Li Dui, so he didn't take the matter of going to the army as promised to heart at all.

His relatives and friends knew that he was going to envoy to the Qi country, so they were setting up a banquet for him, Tian Bai drank so much that he didn't set off until three o'clock in the afternoon, of course, this was also because he didn't know that King Zhao and Li Dui would also come to see him off, otherwise, no matter how arrogant he was, he wouldn't dare to let King Zhao and Li Dui wait for him here.

Three o'clock in the afternoon had already passed, and a sneer appeared at the corner of Zhao Fan's mouth, he looked up at Li Dui and Wei Biao in the city, and thought that the former deliberately instructed Tian Bai to do this, and wanted to give himself a dismount, so at this moment, Zhao Fan also had a chill in his heart.

Zhao Fan put down the silhouette benchmark, removed the timer leaker, turned around and entered the barracks, began to review the team, announced military discipline, and after he had deployed all this, a figure hurried over.
