Ruyi had no sleep, but she had to get up early, because she had to go to morning class, and her apprenticeship officially began with the morning bell.

"Anping, Master really likes you, and it's good that he gave you a separate courtyard." After breakfast, Su Qin finally caught up with Ruyi and said happily, not a sour rhetoric, but really happy.

Ruyi looks at this simple-hearted and kind-hearted teenager, and he really likes it. "You can come to me to study with you later." Su Qin said happily: "Okay, then I will definitely bother you often in the future." Xia He, who was following behind, pouted when he heard this.

Guigu assigns different learning tasks according to their different levels, which can be regarded as teaching students according to their aptitude. Ruyi's side has already started classes. In the bamboo building of Guigu, Sun Bin was sitting on the brocade mat a little nervously waiting for Guigu.

"Sun Bin, almost all of the professors who are the teachers can teach you are with you. Now that's the only one left. Saying that, Guigu took out a scroll of documents from the iron cabinet, "This is the thirteen chapters of the Art of War left by your ancestor grandson." In the bamboo building, the master and apprentice sat opposite the table and looked at the scroll in front of them.

"It turned out that the Art of War was in the hands of the master, and when I was young, my grandfather searched the world for my great-grandfather's book but could not find it, and finally died of depression." Sun Bin said honestly.

"Back then, your ancestors dedicated it to King Wu. King Wu used his strategy to defeat the state of Chu, and then the king of Wu regretted that this book was not widely spread to people, so it was placed in the iron cabinet and hidden in the house of Gusu Tai, and this book was not passed on since then. I have an old relationship with your ancestors, so I got this book, and I personally commented on it, and I did not give it to others easily, but you are loyal, and I will teach this book to you now. I hope you can inherit the legacy of your ancestors and make good use of it. Guigu said solemnly.

Sun Bin took the scroll and saluted seriously. After Sun Bin left, the Ghost Valley was also a matter of concern.

Ruyi was holding a stack of books and was about to go back to the room to study, passing by the garden and just met Sun Bin who was walking towards him, and the two saluted each other, "Senior Brother Sun, I just have a question to ask you, can you help me talk about it?" ”

"Senior Brother An, don't be polite, if I can answer, I will do my best." The two stood on the cloister and began to answer questions. The two asked and answered, discussed different opinions with each other, and suddenly had a hearty feeling.

"Senior Brother Sun, your attainments in the art of war are really superb, admire and admire." Ruyi said sincerely.

"Senior Brother An is also very good, he already has such an opinion at a young age, I admire and admire." Sun Bin also praised sincerely.

So far, the two often discuss problems together, and they slowly become familiar with each other.

Just when Ruyi was studying and living peacefully, the capital of Wei had already begun a bloody battle for the throne.

*

The gates of the city are heavily guarded, and every person entering and leaving must be strictly interrogated and examined. The soldiers defending the city shouted, "What are you doing in the city?" ”

A thin man in a cloth coat and straw sandals replied, "I'm just a vegetable seller." ”

"What's in the basket?"

"Master Jun, it's all fresh vegetables. The military master is a little lighter, and no one will buy it if it is not fresh. The man had a distressed expression.

"Let's go, next." The soldier looked through it for a long time and saw that there was no abnormality, so he also let him go.

The streets are very deserted, not to mention the stalls selling things, and even the shops are closed, looking like they are facing a great enemy. The thin man wondered how it had become like this since he had not entered the city for a few days, so he stopped a woman who was hurrying and asked, "Auntie, what's the matter, no one is doing business anymore?" ”

The woman cautiously looked left and right and whispered, "What kind of business are you still doing, your life is gone, you better go quickly." The man wanted to ask again, but the woman refused to say more, and hurried away.

The man walked around and saw that there was really no one on the street, so he turned into a secluded alley, stood down at the door of a family in the alley, knocked lightly on the wooden door three times, and the door opened from the inside, revealing half of the head, and looked left and right for a while before dodging away and letting the man in. The man in the door asked in a dumb voice, "Why did you enter the city at this time?" ”

The thin man put down the basket and asked anxiously, "What's going on in the city?" ”

"Yesterday another doctor was raided. Someone was also taken away from the liquor shop. It made people panic. The person in the door came out of the shadows as he spoke, this person was also dressed in cloth and straw sandals, and on a slightly old face, there was an inch-long scar on the left forehead, which looked a little hideous, although the voice was hoarse, but the eyes were shining.

"How is Wei Wuhou?" The thin man continued.

"It is said that I have not come to the court for several days, and the details are unknown." Scarface said. After a pause, Scarface continued, "Skinny Monkey, do you have any orders from the giant?" ”

"The giant son asked us to go to the prime minister's uncle acne and let him enter the palace to meet Wei Wuhou, at least delay it and wait for the eldest prince to come back." The thin man named Skinny Monkey said in a deep voice.

"The giant has already negotiated with the eldest prince?" Scarface was a little surprised.

"It should be, don't inquire if you shouldn't." The thin monkey said solemnly.

Scarface smiled, but it softened his face.

"Scar, tomorrow you pretend to deliver food to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find out the truth." The skinny monkey continues to assign tasks......

Outside the Dadu Palace, there is a mansion with a high gate compound across two streets, with a vermilion gate and a tall stone lion, revealing solemnity and solemnity. Inside is a high platform pavilion, there are many palaces, and it is very luxurious. This is the second son's mansion.

The second son's slightly feminine voice came faintly, "Why haven't you died yet?" ”

There was a black-clothed man kneeling on the ground who didn't dare to raise his head and said, "The eldest prince somehow got involved with the Mo family. Recently, there have been ink escorts. And there is one more Pang Juan. ”

"The Mo family? It seems that they came to some kind of agreement. Wei Xuan said in a deep voice, Wei Xuan thought for a while and then continued to order: "You let the original people continue to assassinate Wei Poppy, and the rest of the people enter the palace to listen to my orders and wait for the opportunity." ”

"There is one more thing about the second son, "Warring States Policy" is back in the rivers and lakes. It is rumored to have been obtained by Zhao Chenghou. The man in black reported.

"Check it out quickly, and don't let it fall into the hands of others." Wei said ruthlessly, with a greedy look in his eyes.

After the man in black retreated, Wei Yan paced slowly in the room, Pang Juan's matter he had already seen Wei Poppy's recital to his father, so what was the matter with the Mo family? Why did "Warring States Policy" suddenly appear again? finally took advantage of his father's serious illness to control the government, and if he took the opportunity to get rid of Wei Poppy, then this position was destined to be his. It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and he didn't want to miss it. If you really can't do it, you can only get rid of your father and quickly succeed to the throne.

"Second son?" There was a knock at the door.

"Come in." Wei slowly sat back down on the main seat.

The one who came in was a palace attendant and said with some flattery: "Second son, today the prime minister's uncle entered the palace and asked to stay in the palace to serve the sick, and the king agreed." This afternoon, the king happened to be sober and summoned the prime minister. ”

"Is the king sober? Is the dosage insufficient? Wei said gloomily, obviously angry.

"It's not enough, it's just that I'm sober."

"Exactly?" Wei Shu thought thoughtfully, "Manager Yan, you go back and replace all the maids around you." ”

"No, the minion understands."

The chief steward walked out of the gate of the mansion in a hurry, sat on his shoulders and hummed a little song towards the palace. The more you go in the direction of the palace, the cleaner it becomes, there are no other residents here, and there is still a mansion of the eldest prince left near the palace. When I turned to the entrance of the alley across the street from the palace wall, I suddenly stopped.

"Why don't you go, hurry up, your lord is still waiting for me." The shrill voice of the general manager sounded through the curtain. The shoulder was still not moving, and the manager of Yan raised the curtain and just wanted to scold, but he was covered by his mouth and nose and passed out, and he didn't even have time to see who it was.

*

"Scar, okay?" The thin monkey urged anxiously on the side. It's a firewood room with some miscellaneous items piled up next to it. In the corner were four unconscious palanquin drivers.

"You still don't believe in my skills. Just wait and see. Scar said confidently.

After a stick of incense, there was a gentle knock on the door twice. The chief attendant pushed the door and walked out of the firewood room, and shouted in a sharp voice: "Wake up the four of them and send me back to the palace, the king is still waiting for me to go back to my life." Kang Shou stood outside the door and paused for a moment, like, too similar, it should be said that it was completely. Kang Shou hurriedly ordered someone to send the four palanquin men to the alley to wake up.

Manager Yan saluted Kang Shou, "Kang Guard, the king is still waiting for me, so I won't bother, and I will come back to bother when the eldest prince comes back, and I will leave." Kang Shou also returned the salute. Kang Shou watched the back of Manager Yan walking out of the eldest prince's mansion, and broke out in a cold sweat on his back, and got goosebumps.

The four palanquin men woke up faintly and looked at the general manager of Yan who was looking down at them with their waists crossed, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and their hearts were full of wails, and they really wanted to faint again and never wake up again.

"Why don't you get up yet, wait for me to help you up?" The general manager said in a gloomy voice, which sounded creepy.

"Boss, we were wrong." The four of them quickly knelt down and begged for mercy. Although the four of them didn't fall asleep on purpose, they didn't know what was wrong. But it's always a good idea to admit your mistakes first.

"Spare you this time, hurry up and leave, your majesty is still waiting for me." As he spoke, the steward sat down on his shoulder with the curtain. The four of them trembled and lifted up and left.

When he returned to the palace, he immediately began to change the maid beside him. Even the four palanquin drivers were sent away unconsciously.

It's another day and a new beginning, and the outside of the palace is already surging, but the palace seems quite quiet due to deliberate concealment.

"Manager Yan, I've worked hard for you recently, and everything around you depends on you. Is Jun awake now? Uncle Gong arched his hand and said politely.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, the king is just sober, and he just said to you, my lord, go in and take a look." Manager Yan replied politely, and the two glanced at each other and left.

Uncle acne walked to the hall, passing through the atrium, which was the place where the ministers used to discuss matters, and now the second prince has already changed the court, and it is very deserted. Detouring through the inner hall, Wei Wuhou was lying on the couch, describing himself as thin, long lost his former majesty, and after the torture of illness and medicine, he was like an ordinary old man who was about to die.

"Your Majesty, do you feel better today?" Uncle Gong looked at Wu Hou cautiously and asked. Wu Hou fanned his eyelids and slowly opened, a pair of cloudy eyeballs embedded in the deep sunken eye sockets, and the towering cheekbones were only skin and bones. Uncle Gong was a little moved, and didn't dare to look any further, bowing his head and waiting for Wuhou to say something.

"Poppy...... Come back...... Is it so? Wuhou's hoarse voice spoke weakly and intermittently, and he gasped for a long time after speaking.

"It's coming, it's time for these two days." In fact, Wei Poppy has not heard from him for two days, but Uncle Acne didn't dare to tell Wuhou, so he could only comfort him like this, comfort Wuhou, and comfort himself.
