Chapter 388: Peerless Piano Master
Lu Buwei sat down on the chair in a daze, and was speechless for a while.
Lu Wu supported him by the side, and Lu Wen asked, "Is this true, sir?" β
Li Si nodded and said, "It's true, this is what the master said himself." Lu Laoke still remember the Jing Liang who was handed over to you at the beginning of the Taigong Ancestral Order? β
LΓΌ Buwei came to his senses and said, "Of course I remember, it was a turning point in my life, and later he saved us on our way back to Qin, but since then, I haven't seen him again." β
As Lu Buwei spoke, a scene from many years ago appeared in his mind at the same time, which coincided with the scene where Lu Wen received the order just now.
"When King Qin gave the crown ceremony, he came to Xianyang, and also had some contact with King Qin, hehe, King Qin recognized this Engong at a glance at that time." Li Si said with a smile, "And after leaving the Qin State, he went to the Qi State with Ling Ai in his arms. β
When Lu Buwei heard this, his heart settled down a little, but he still asked, "How is the doll now?" β
Li Si replied: "After King Wu rescued her at that time, she was very weak, so King Wu raised her for more than a year before letting Jing Liang take her away. When Jing Liang arrived in the country of Qi, he found a place and put the child at the door of that house. β
"That family's surname is Meng, and it is a well-known kindness in the local area, but the young couple has no children for many years, so they adopted your daughter, and she has been treating it as her own for many years."
"I'm relieved." Although he said that he was relieved, how could the concern that suddenly ignited in his heart be extinguished, "What is the name of the doll, and where does she live?" β
Li Si smiled and said: "At that time, Jing Liang put a brocade in the child's swaddling clothes, with the word 'Jiang' written on it, so the Meng family named her Meng Jiang, and their family now lives in Mengjia Village in Yanzhou. β
"Mengjia Village ......," Lu Buwei muttered, "what is his adoptive father called?" β
"His name is Meng Hai." Li Si said, "What, Old Lu wants to go to her?" β
Lu Buwei was silent for a while, then nodded resolutely and said, "I want to go and see her, even if it's just from a distance." β
Li Si understood his mood at this time, and suddenly knew that he had a daughter in the world, how could he not miss it?
"Okay, I'll send a letter to Jing Liang and tell him."
Lu Wen said beside him: "Uncle, let's go with you." β
Lu Buwei shook his head: "You have to stay in the Qin State, after all, you have just received the ancestral order, and the King of Qin still has a place to use you." If I'm gone, I'll be able to let you go. β
"Besides...... It's time for me to get back to my roots. β
The words are a little pathetic, as if they are telling the infinite attachment of the Lu family to Qi Guo.
"But we're still not at ease." Lu Wudao.
Li Si smiled and said: "It's okay, the King of Qin just happened to send an envoy to visit the Qi State, so it is better for Lu Lao to go with the envoy, and when he arrives in Linzi, he can also teach the experience of the envoy's visit." β
LΓΌ Buwei understood that in such a tense situation, stabilizing the Qi State behind it was crucial to Great Qin's strategy.
So he nodded and readily agreed.
"Then wait for my news, Li Si will take his leave."
LΓΌ Buwei asked LΓΌ Wen and LΓΌ Wu to send Li Si a few miles away until they reached the official road.
Back in Xianyang City, Li Si went straight to Sima Mansion.
Ying Zheng spent most of his time in Sima Mansion these days, except for the administration of the dynasty, one accompanied Ji Fa to adjust the Jiuding and Tianmu that had just been activated by the divinity, and the other was to facilitate the instant acquisition of information from other countries.
At this time, the Wenju was already well organized by Sima Jie, and on the surface it was a place where literati and scholars gathered to preach the scriptures and preach, but in fact it had already become an independent intelligence agency.
Not only did it collect all kinds of news from all over the world, but it also sent a lot of people to the countries for a long time to hide, and most of them became guests of the powerful people of the countries.
"Your Majesty, everything has been handed over to them, and the matter has been explained, but it's just ......," Li Si said, "It's just that LΓΌ Buwei seems to want to go to Qi to visit Meng Jiang in person." β
Immediately, Li Si told what had just happened.
"Fallen leaves return to their roots? ......" Ying Zheng thought for a moment and said, "In this way, if the middle father goes this time, he will not come back." β
"It seems like that, but he doesn't say it explicitly." Li Sidao, "But I think this is the best destination for him." β
Ying Zheng nodded: "Maybe." I have never asked if my father was comfortable living by the creek. Come to think of it, a politician who has been in the limelight for many years is suddenly forced to live in seclusion, and after a long time, he will definitely not be able to settle for peace. β
"Then the king's meaning is to let him go?"
"Let him go." Ying Zheng sighed lightly, "Although he is a little reluctant, I believe that is what he really wants." β
"Which one does the king want to send to the Qi Kingdom?" Lees asked.
Ying Zheng smiled: "I'm also thinking about it, this visit, we must stabilize the Qi State, and we must also beware of the black hand of the Wei State, so we must send a person who can be civil and martial." β
"Nachen recommends someone." Li Si arched his hand and said, "What do you think of Wei Yu?" β
Wei Yu, indeed able to write and martial arts, in addition to Chang Yu after making meritorious contributions, was named the captain by Ying Zheng, with the true biography of Guiguzi, for him to train the "our army" of the year, that is, the current Tiger Army.
And now that Daniel Zhang, Solin, and Qiang can train the Tiger Army independently, it is not bad to let Wei Yi go out and transfer.
After thinking about it for a while, Ying Zheng said: "Then let him go to Qi Kingdom, but you must let him protect Lu Buwei's safety and hide his whereabouts." β
Li Si responded, and said: "I told Lu Buwei that I would send a message to Jing Liang, but I have to tell my master about this." β
Referring to Jing Liang, Ying Zheng hurriedly asked: "If LΓΌ Buwei goes to replace Jing Liang, will Jing Liang be able to come back?" β
"I don't think so." Li Si said, "It's better to see the master's arrangement." β
ββββββ
Qi State, Mengjia Village, Yanzhou.
Jing Liang, who is now known as Jing Ke, is sitting on a wooden pier in the woods and watching the letters from the flying pigeons.
The content of the letter was not long, first, he told him that Wei Yu would send an envoy to Qi and ask him to help him secretly, and second, that LΓΌ Buwei would come to visit Meng Jiang and let him handle the relationship between father and daughter.
As he was thinking about the key to this, a wonderful sound like a fairy bird sounded in his ears.
"Master, what are you doing?"
I saw a teenage girl appear in front of him, with a delicate face, black hair, and a pair of big eyes blinking, very cute.
It's Meng Jiang!
"Why did you run out on your own, and you weren't afraid of getting lost." Jing Ke pretended to complain.
"It's okay, I'm already familiar with this road."
Jing Ke sighed lightly: "Let's go, let's go back, or your father should be worried." β
The voice did not fall, but I felt that the yin wind was protruding.
Jing Ke was instantly alert and took Meng Jiang in his arms.
Sou......
An arrow feather grazed his ear and scurried into the trunk of a nearby tree.
Jing Ke's face immediately became gloomy, squinting and searching for the incoming enemy.
Although Meng Jiang was frightened, with Jing Ke's training of himself for many years, he didn't shout, and at the same time gradually adjusted his breath.
"What people, come out!"
Before Jing Ke finished speaking, he heard a loud laugh from outside the forest.
"Brother Jing, don't be nervous, just try your skills."
Jing Ke looked in that direction, and saw two people appear in his sight, one was dressed in plain clothes, handsome and straight, and the other was wearing dark red clothes and combing his hair in a different bun.
"Prince Dan?"
"Hahaha, it's me, it's me."
It turned out that the man in plain clothes was actually the prince of Yan Kingdom, Yan Dan! "I haven't seen you for a long time, Brother Jing's skills seem to be sluggish." Yan Dan quipped.
Jing Ke snorted coldly and said, "I can't shoot in the first place, so why dodge." β
"Hehe, that's a good point." The man in red clapped his hands and praised, "I have heard for a long time that Jing Daxia is excellent in kung fu and is extremely calm, and it is really extraordinary when I see it today." β
Jing Ke remained hostile and asked in a cold voice, "......Who is this?" β
Yan Dan introduced: "This is my dear friend, named Gao Yanli, who came with me to see Brother Jing's demeanor. β
"Don't talk nonsense, if it's a fight, it's a shot." Jing Ke pushed Meng Jiang behind him.
Yan Dan saw that Jing Ke was really going to make a move, so he quickly softened and said, "Brother Jing, don't get me wrong, just now it was really just a temptation, and there was no other meaning." β
"Then I'll try to tempt too."
Before the words fell, I saw Jing Ke rise and fall, and he had already attacked the two of them.
Gao gradually left the situation, immediately handed over the bamboo fan to his left hand, and pulled out an iron flute from his waist with his right hand, and swung Jing Ke's sharp blade head-on.
Who knew that Jing Ke was a false move, he half-turned around and quickly kicked out two kicks, one kick ran towards Yan Dan's eye sockets, and the other kicked straight into Gao Yuan's lower abdomen.
Yan Dan hurriedly shrank his head to dodge, but was pointed at the shoulder well by Jing Ke.
Gao Yanli used the iron flute to block Jing Ke's flying kicks, but in the next moment, he felt a chill in his neck, and saw that Jing Ke's saber was already on his neck.
In one round, the two were defeated.
However, Yan Dan and Gao Yanli are not ordinary people after all, and they still do not change their faces in the face of crisis.
"Your sword is not murderous." Yan Dan said.
Jing Ke said: "What are you doing here?" β
Yan Dan looked at Meng Jiang and said, "You send this little girl back, don't let her be frightened, we have something to discuss with you." β
Jing Ke didn't say anything, turned around and picked up Meng Jiang, and strode out of the woods.
"Sure enough, it's a master." Gao Yanli exclaimed.
"I see." Yan Dan said, "A few years ago, I summoned all kinds of masters to be my imperial guards, and one of them recommended this Jing Ke to me. So I traveled thousands of miles to Qi State, but he refused me several times. β
"At that time, I was still wondering, why would he prefer to stay in this small village because of his ability?"
"Later, I found out that he paid special attention to this girl, so he wanted to invite the Meng family to go to Yan Country as well, but Jing Ke still refused."
Gao Yanli sneered: "It seems that he is also a hermit in the mountains who ignores political affairs, so if we come to him this time, the prince will be sure to move him?" β
Yan Dan shook his head: "I'm not sure." However, King Zhao said that Fan Yuzhi had been rescued by this Jing Ke, and knew that he also had a deep grudge with Qin Ting, so he might have some opportunities. β
What Yan Dan didn't know was that what Fan Yuqi knew was not the truth.
The two were chatting, and Jing Ke had already returned to them.
"Now I can say it."
Yan Dan cleared his throat and said: "The two of us are on this trip on the order of my father, and we will go to the Qin State for peace talks, if Great Qin can agree to our conditions, I can be a proton in the Qin State for a period of time." β
"But after all, Xianyang is the land of tigers and wolves, so I want to ask Your Excellency to go with me to keep me safe, and I will be greatly grateful."
Jing Ke smiled: "It seems that you still don't give up, and you always want to recruit me to your command." It's just unfortunate that I really have something urgent to deal with this time, but ......"
"But what?"
"But if something happens to the prince, I will avenge you." Jing Ke said resolutely.
Yan Dan didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, and thought that he was finally influenced by himself, so he was overjoyed and said, "Okay, let's make a decision!" β
Out of the woods, Gao Yuanli whispered: "Sure enough, I still couldn't ask for help." β
Yan Dan narrowed the corners of his eyes: "This is also what I expected, next, let's implement the original plan." β
