Qiu Yizhi was in a state of confusion, but Lingnan King Zhenggui was still following his own train of thought and said: "The old man is now full of soldiers, but there are no talents under him, so he has to use this Wen Honghui." ”

He paused, looked at Qiu Yizhi with a pair of old eyes that had been a little drooping, and then said: "The old man has talked to my nephew many times before, why don't you come and help me do something?" With the talents of virtuous nephews, let alone going to the altar to worship the prime minister, it is enough to seal a prince with a different surname. ”

Zheng Gui pointed to Uncle Lin beside him and said, "This is 'Mr. Bansong', right?" It's better to come with your family's Lord Qiu, the old man treats everyone equally, and he will definitely be reused. If you are not willing to accept Lord Qiu, you can naturally do things under him, and the old man will never force it. As for the other generals under the virtuous nephew, everyone has a reward. And the old man might as well make it clear, these brothers in life and death under the virtuous nephew, the old man will never break up; Not only will it not cut down a single soldier, but it will also give you greater military power, and the old man will have elite soldiers under his account, and you can choose ......"

Such conditions are no longer rich, not so much to recruit rebels on the battlefield, but to invite a distinguished guest who asks for him.

Qiu Yizhi listened to the Lingnan King Zheng Gui's gushing invitation, and couldn't help but sneak a glance at Lin Shuhan beside him, but saw that Lin Shuhan's eyes were also glancing at his side - it turned out that the two of them were discussing and concluded that the Lingnan Royal Mansion would inevitably not be able to achieve great things because of its withering talents, but he didn't expect that Lingnan King Zheng Gui himself had already realized this, so he wanted to use such generous conditions to envelop Qiu Yizhi.

If I changed someone else, I would have already been tempted. But Qiu Yizhi's relationship with the current emperor is by no means limited to monarchs and ministers, but there is a father-son relationship, and several princes under his knees, especially Zheng Miao, the third highness, also have brotherhood, and they will never betray the emperor and the court at any time, and attach themselves to Zheng Gui, the king of Lingnan.

So Qiu Yizhi arched his hand to Zheng Gui and said, "The kindness of the prince is appreciated by the younger generation." If the younger generation was born in Lingnan Road, or was not nurtured by the emperor, then the younger generation may really be able to worship under the prince's account. But the emperor has life-saving kindness to the younger generation, and the younger generation's small life is given by the emperor, so it can only be returned to the emperor. ”

Zheng Gui seemed to be sincerely teaching the students to the juniors, and said: "A gentleman must know how to be flexible from power, wouldn't it be a pity if a talent like you was covered in dust here like this?" Even if my imperial brother knows about it, he will think that he is destroying the heavens, right? ”

Qiu Yizhi replied: "The prince said this, and the younger generation accepted it. It's just that there is still a so-called 'Taoism' in this world. The younger generation gave an inappropriate example, the second prince Zheng Yu under the prince's knee was defeated by the younger generation several times, if he surrendered to the court at that time, I don't know how the prince felt in his heart? ”

Zheng Gui listened to the "haha" and smiled: "It is said that the virtuous nephew is sharp and sharp-tongued, and his mouth is like a river, and he really deserves his reputation." That's a good example! However, in this world, it has always been a king and a loser, and it is not a big deal to surrender to the strong and the victor. As for what if Zheng Yu surrendered to the imperial court...... Then he can only blame his bad vision and failure to see who the real winner is. In the end, the old man counterattacked like today, and he would definitely punish him greatly, which was just to punish him for being deaf and blind. ”

Qiu Yizhi had never heard of such a statement, and he thought it was novel, but even if Lingnan King Zheng Gui said it wildly, Qiu Yizhi would never surrender to him.

So Qiu Yizhi coughed lightly and said, "The prince has given me a lesson." However, everyone has their own aspirations, and the younger generations can't take refuge in the prince anyway. Now the younger generation has become a turtle in the urn, just waiting for the prince to catch it. But remind the prince that the turtle will bite when he is in a hurry, not to mention the eighth king, when the prince reaches over, be careful of being injured by the juniors. ”

After that, Qiu Yizhi made another gesture to the king of Lingnan, and was about to turn around and leave.

Seeing that his attitude was so resolute, Zheng Gui couldn't help but sigh, held back for a while, and said, "The old man never breaks people's will. The virtuous nephew has such ambitions, and the old man also admires it a little, if he doesn't attack with all his strength later, he will look down on the virtuous nephew. Then the virtuous nephew, please go back first, so that you can do it yourself......" As he spoke, the King of Lingnan did not look back, turned around and went to his own formation under the escort of the army.

Qiu Yizhi shook his head, and just wanted to leave, when he suddenly remembered something, suddenly stopped, and shouted: "That senior of the Wei Chi family, can you show up for a while?" ”

Before he finished speaking, he saw that in the half-hidden façade next to him, a man in black quickly rushed out, stood still in front of Qiu Yizhi, and said, "What did His Highness Yi call the old woman to do?" ”

Although Qiu Yizhi had been prepared, she was still frightened by this old woman and took half a step back, and finally settled down and said, "It's not a big deal." It is Miss Wen, the saint of your religion, who has some friendship under the same path, and is in danger at the moment, and will be separated from Miss Wen in the future, and there will be no day to meet. I would like to ask my seniors to take care of Miss Wen for me and keep her net worth safe in this troubled world. With the skills of the old-timers, I'm afraid this matter is not difficult to do, right? ”

The old woman's death-like eyes suddenly flashed with a glimmer of inspiration, and she was silent for a moment and asked: "His Royal Highness is the emperor's righteous son, and the young lady is the holy daughter of the Tianzun Sect, how can you have feelings for each other?" The old woman's mouth does not accumulate virtue, and if she says something wrong, please don't blame His Highness. I'm afraid that this fate is a bad fate, and it won't end well! ”

When Qiu Yizhi heard this, he suddenly remembered that this old aunt and grandmother of the Wei Chi family had betrayed the Wei Chi family because of a relationship that was opposed by the clan, and she fell to this point.

Thinking of a person like her with outstanding martial arts, but she can only wear filial piety for life, becoming inhuman, ghost and ghost, Qiu Yizhi is a little emotional, but today's situation does not allow him to express his feelings, so he can only bow his head and sigh, and say: "What reason can you explain about the affairs of men and women?" I just hope that the old-timers can promise me, and I have no regrets. ”

The black-clothed old woman was silent for a long time, and said faintly: "Your Highness Yi's thoughts, the old woman knows. On the day after the young lady returned, she left, and I had to protect the sect leader at all times, and I don't know where she went. But please rest assured, Your Highness Yi, a person like Miss can't suffer any losses for a while, and the old woman can't allow her to suffer other people's losses. His Royal Highness Yi's entrustment, the old woman will definitely do it for you! ”

Qiu Yizhi nodded with a little gratitude, and only said a few "thank you" and couldn't say any more.

Lin Shuhan behind him, a dignified son of a family and a talented man in Jiangnan, actually hid from his parents and elders in the family, and stayed with the same Qinglou Oiran for a long time. Lin Shuhan, who did such a deviant thing, was also very touched when he saw this situation, and there seemed to be a thousand words in his belly, but he didn't know where to start, so he could only stand in place and mutter to himself.

Several people stood silently for a long time, and the old woman finally spoke, but she spoke to Yu Chi Jiming: "Baby, your martial arts are very good, stronger than when I was as old as you." But no matter how strong a person's martial arts are, it is useless in the face of thousands of troops. You are very good, and the Wei Chi family will still rely on your support in the future. Although the old woman has now broken off with the Wei Chi family, there is still a saying: When it is a last resort, you still have to go! Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, you know? ”

When Wei Chi Jiming heard this, his neck twisted stubbornly, and he was about to speak, but he heard the old woman say: "Okay, the old woman has been here for too long, and I'm afraid that the sect leader will be surprised, so I will leave, and ask a few people to do it themselves." ”

After that, she didn't see any movement of her feet, and flew away out of thin air like a kite blown by the wind.

On the wide and straight avenue in front of Yanziji Wharf, only Qiu Yizhi, Lin Shuhan and Yu Chi Jiming were left.

The three of them had their own thoughts, but they all bowed their heads and remained silent.

Suddenly, a muffled sound came from the north, which pulled Qiu Yizhi back from his contemplation. He looked up at the sky, and saw that the sun had reached the middle of the sky, and gradually began to sink in the west, and there were patches of floating clouds floating in the north of the sky, and a gust of wind blew in an unknown direction, bringing with it a hint of blood in the city and a hint of sulfur outside the city, and blew the clouds on the horizon a little less and thicker.

Qiu Yizhi smiled at himself: "It's a sunny day, isn't it going to rain?" ”

Lin Shuhan echoed: "Probably God also thinks that we died unjustly, and wants to mourn for me, right?" ”

Qiu Yizhi smiled dumbly when he heard this, and said as he walked: "Mr. Lin has always scoffed at this kind of ethereal strange power, why did he say such words today?" ”

Lin Shuhan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and suddenly smiled to himself: "I, I'm going to be strong for a lifetime, and I don't know until I'm dying to know when I accept my fate." Whether it is auspicious or bad omen, although this kind of thing has never been successful since ancient times, since there are only a few words in the sage's quotations about this way, I am afraid that there is always some truth......"

When Qiu Yizhi heard this, he suddenly slowed down and said something irrelevant: "Mr. Lin, I have received a lot of kindness from below, and now I can only serve the emperor and the court by dying." Wouldn't it be a pity if Mr. Ke died like this? There's no reason to be dusty here, so why don't you just get away? ”

Lin Shuhan was stunned again, and then smiled: "Adults are joking, right?" You see that now the king of Lingnan is as solid as a dam in front of him, even an ant may not be able to climb through, where can I run to a weak scholar? ”

Qiu Yizhi shook his head: "Mr. Lin is just joking, right?" The king of Lingnan is a person who wants to establish a foundation, and he will not offend the scholars too much. With Mr.'s literary name in Jiangnan, even if he is a rotten Confucian with no real talent and real learning, the king of Lingnan will hold Mr. in his hands, and Mr. can go out with a swagger, and the prince will definitely not do harm. A wise and intelligent person like Mr. Lin, can't he figure it out? ”

Lin Shuhan listened to Qiu Yizhi's endless talk about such a big set, neither agreed nor objected, but his pace was not slow at all, and when he walked back to his own position, he replied: "It's one thing to want to get through it, but it's another thing to be willing to do it." The so-called 'death of a confidant', although Lin does not have the style of an ancient sage, he is also willing to follow ......"

"Yes, sir, you said it well!" Before Lin Shuhan's words fell, he heard a woman's voice beside him, "The so-called 'woman is the one who pleases herself', since Mr. is going to die, then I don't want to live in this world, I am willing to go with Mr." ”

Lin Shuhan's heart palpitated when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "If not, this is all a man's business, you are a woman, don't mix it ......"
