Late September.

The assassination of the King of Chu is a big deal for a Chu State, under normal circumstances, no one or force can hide it, let alone the King of Chu who was killed together with the King of Chu this time, as well as the Queen Mother Li Yanyan and the Li Yuan family.

When the news reached Yangxi, there was no accident, and the entire Yangzhen City became a sensation, and the streets and alleys, tea shops, and restaurants were all talking about this matter.

Inside the Tyranny.

A few dignitaries arrived today, and the maids and servants in the mansion were busy.

In fact, after using all the connections, more than 300 people were kept in captivity in Yang Yan, and the Tyrant clan had already squandered almost all their savings, and now they were squeezing all their money out of the banquet with wine and meat again.

With the banquet, Bai Yan finally saw one of the old men led by the rebel forces, Shen Lao.

"Tomorrow's important business, we need to go south! Don't drink too much! I hope you will forgive me! ”

Shen Lao was a lot old, and when he saw the enthusiastic toasts one by one, after drinking a circle, he also hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head, put down the wine, and said apologetically to everyone.

At the banquet.

In addition to the tyrannical old, tyrannical yuan, tyrannical ding, tyrannical Yu and others, several young children of the tyrant clan, as well as some young junjie, also came to the banquet one after another.

Naturally, Hunyi is no exception.

Since that day he defeated Luan Hong with swordsmanship, the proud smile on his face has never left, and the confidence in his eyes is undisguised, and compared to Yunyi, Luan Hong on the side is just the opposite, since he lost to Yanyi, Luan Hong obviously feels that the violent father is violent and less enthusiastic about him than before.

Luan Hong naturally knew what the reason was.

Although he was unwilling, but looking at Yunyi, Luan Hong knew that in terms of swordsmanship, he was indeed not the opponent of Yanyi.

"My lord, the gate, Cui Yan, the county guard outside the gate, is visiting!"

A servant suddenly came to the main hall in a hurry, and reported to the tyrannical old man in a panic.

Hearing the servant's words, the old man's expression instantly froze, and he glanced at the tyrant Yuan, the two of them were full of puzzlement, and they didn't know why Cui Yan, the county guard who had never been to the tyrannical mansion, came to the mansion at this time.

"County Shou Cui Yan?"

"Cui Yan? What's going on? ”

In the main hall, it was far more than the two people who were puzzled, even the people who were violent and Yu were shocked, and looked at each other.

"Father, it must be the news of Shen Lao's arrival, and the current situation is critical, please ask my father to order someone to escort Shen Lao away!"

Just when Yi Yi, Lu Ji and the others looked puzzled, they saw that Tyrant Yu had come back to his senses, turned around and raised his hand, and saluted the tyrant.

And listening to Tyrant Yu's words, Yi Yi, Lu Ji and others nodded one after another at this time and looked at Shen Lao.

Truly.

This is very likely, it must be that Shen Lao's news has leaked, so Cui Yan just came here.

"Someone!"

When the tyrant heard the words of his eldest son, he instantly became nervous, and looked directly out of the door, ready to greet the people in the mansion.

Seeing this, the others, such as Yi Yi, Luan Hong and others, also put their hands on their swords.

Although Cui Yan's arrival made everyone tremble, lest he was here to kill them, but in the same way, whether it was Yan Yi or Luan Hong, they all knew that this time was both a danger and an opportunity.

To know.

At this moment, it is Shen Lao who is in the mansion.

Whether it is Shen Lao's status or Shen's family, it is far more than the Tyrant family, if he can save Shen Lao from leaving this time, why worry about not being able to get ahead in the future and enjoy the glory and wealth.

"Hey~~~ No need to call someone!"

Shen Lao looked at this scene, unlike everyone, Shen Lao not only stretched out his hand to stop the tyrannical elder, but also looked at the people in the main hall and told everyone that there was no need to be excited.

"Ziyu, go to the mansion and welcome the county guard in!"

After Shen Lao calmed everyone, he looked at Tyrant Yu and commanded softly.

With Shen Lao's words, everyone in the main hall was stunned, even the tyrant was full of stunned expressions, but then, everyone thought of something in an instant, and looked at Shen Lao with a look of surprise, surprise, and disbelief, even tyrant Yu was no exception.

Storm Yu's expression was a little dazed, he couldn't believe the thought in his mind, you must know that Shen Lao had told him in person, even if Yang Yu couldn't take it down, the more chaotic the better.

This is what Shen Lao said himself.

However, looking at Shen Lao's appearance at this moment, there is no other explanation.

In everyone's eyes, looking at Tyrant Yu's unbelievable appearance, Shen Lao sighed and shook his head slightly.

"Ziyu, this matter is a long story, even the old man didn't know about it before! This is the test of Han Lao and some other old clans such as the Zhuang clan for your tyrant clan, after all, there have been violent blessings before, if you don't test it, it is difficult to make people feel at ease! They were afraid that I would mind, so they never even told me! ”

Shen Lao explained, and then turned slightly sideways to salute the tyrannical old man to apologize.

If it weren't for the sudden assassination of the King of Chu and the chaos in the people's hearts, if it weren't for the fact that he wanted to go south to the Chu State immediately, and he vaguely had the idea of giving up this restoration, I am afraid that Han Yi and those people would still not tell him about this matter.

Originally, in the planning of Han Yi and others, they would not inform him until they were ready to launch a rebellion at the earliest, and they would also inform the Tyrant clan.

Come to think of it.

Shen Lao couldn't help but sigh, he knew that Han Yi was not broad-minded, but he couldn't imagine that he would come to such a point, because of the violent blessings, he would give the violent clan such a test.

Quiet~!

In the main hall, with Shen Lao's words, everyone couldn't help but look at Storm Yu, looking at Storm Yu's stunned appearance, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

Maybe this matter is understandable in the eyes of outsiders such as Juyi, after all, because of the big fortune before, it is understandable to be on guard.

The other side.

On the wooden table behind Lu Ji, Bai Yan, who was kneeling behind the wooden table, looked at Shen Lao in the distance.

When he heard with his own ears that Cui Yan had betrayed Qin, even though Bai Yan had a thought, he still couldn't help but be surprised,

Although many Qin officials who came to Yingchuan to serve under the order of King Qin before were officials who had committed crimes, Bai Yan could understand that in the face of the co-optation of these scholars, those officials would not hesitate too much at all.

But Cui Yan, but Yingchuan County Guard!

The county guard! The largest official in the entire Yingchuan County, even if Korea is restored, Cui Yan may not be able to get such a high status, after all, Yingchuan is the former South Korea, in other words, the whole of Korea is now the territory ruled by Cui Yan.

What did those scholars promise to say? can make Cui Yan rebel against Qin.

"I see, that is, at the beginning, they didn't need the Tyrant Clan to capture the county guard mansion at all."

When Tyrant Yu heard Shen Lao's words, his eyes were extremely complicated, and he looked at Shen Lao in full view.

"Hey~! Indeed it is! But Ziyu doesn't need to worry, this time the Tyrant Clan has gathered so many knights, not only will the Tyrant Clan regain the trust of others, but when the matter is completed, everyone will remember that it was these chivalrous warriors recruited by the Tyrant Clan! I won't forget the credit of the Tyrant Clan! ”

Shen Lao looked at Tyrant Yu with a helpless gaze.

If he knew about this matter from the beginning, then he would not agree to do it at all, but he never thought that those people knew that he had always been close to Ziyu, so they didn't tell him about it.

The purpose is that if the Tyrant clan has any more dissenting intentions and takes refuge in the Qin State, then Cui Yan will dispose of the Tyrant clan.

Under the main hall.

After hearing Shen Lao's explanation, Tyrant Yu glanced at his father and uncle, was silent, looked at Shen Lao, and raised his hand to salute.

After the ceremony, Tyrant Yu turned around and walked towards the outside of the main hall to welcome Cui Yan, the county guard of Yingchuan County, in.

Shen Lao looked at this scene and sighed helplessly again.

Bai Yan knelt in the corner, and when he saw Storm Yu's face full of complicated passes, he left the main hall.

Bai Yan knew that if he had made Tyrant Yu wake up and Tyrant Yu had no choice, then the actions of those scholars would be really a bit of a curse.

Thinking of this, Bai Yan turned his head to look at the old man in the innermost part of the main hall, those scholars only knew that the purpose of this time was to test the Tyrant Clan, not to let the Tyrant Clan really kill the county guard, but they didn't take into account that in order to captive these more than 300 people, in order to settle everything, the Tyrant Clan had squandered all their family wealth.

To know.

When Korea was not extinct before, South Korea did not have the slightest favor to the Tyrant Clan, and now all the Tyrant Clan has squandered is the wealth that the Tyrant Clan has accumulated year after year.

The Tyrant clan has squandered all the belongings and belongings, and does not hesitate to gamble the lives of a clan, in order not to directly kill the county guard by the Tyrant clan when there is an incident, control the county guard of the county guard, and take Yang.

As a result, after the Tyrant clan had emptied their family wealth, they told the Tyrant clan that the county guards did not need to attack, the county guards were all their people, and Yang Zhen was already in the bag.

This makes the people of the Tyrant clan think in their hearts.

From the beginning, none of those people believed in the Tyrants.

Come to think of it.

Bai Yan knelt behind the wooden table, and when he vaguely saw the embarrassed face of the old man, and the appearance with a hint of warm anger, Bai Yan didn't know whether the father of the tyrant Yu and the grandfather of the tyrant Shu resented those scholars or the tyranny in his heart at this moment.

Xinzheng's actions of the other clans, although they were because of violent fortunes, made the violent clan look like a joke.

"Great, the county guards are all our people, and great things can be done!"

"But no, when the Qin State knows about this in the future, I'm afraid that Yingzheng will be so angry that he will vomit blood!"

"Even the county guards have rebelled against Qin, it seems that the fate of the Qin State has been decided."

In the lobby, after seeing the violent Yu leaving, the atmosphere gradually became lively, and the men talked to each other, including some young clansmen from the violent clan.

After learning that Cui Yan was their person, those children of the Tyrant clan all smiled with joy, because of their different ages and experiences, those children did not consider the interests represented behind this matter.

A moment later.

In everyone's eyes, behind Tyrant Yu, there was a group of more than 20 people, who came to the main hall, and the person headed by him was wearing a Qin State official uniform, and the lines were exactly the same as Yang Lao, the guard of Yanmen County.

Bai Yan knew that that person should be Cui Yan.

Bai Yan and Cui Yan have not met, and Bai Yan is not worried about it now, he will be recognized by Cui Yan.

However, to Bai Yan's surprise, among the many men behind Cui Yan, he actually saw the children of the Yu clan who had a relationship on the street, and it was he who took a charming woman to ride a carriage on the street, and there were many Qin officials to open the way.

"Shenyan, meet the county guard!"

"Tyranny! Meet the Captain! ”

Seeing Cui Yan coming, Shen Lao and everyone got up one after another and saluted Cui Yan.

Bai Yan was naturally no exception, and stood up and bowed his hand to Cui Yan.

Speaking of which, Bai Yan is also very curious at this moment, how the people of the Violent Clan feel in their hearts, you must know that the Violent Clan used so many connections and captivated so many chivalrous warriors in order to kill Cui Yan, and now Cui Yan came directly to the front like this.

The most important thing is that Cui Yan is still very likely to know about this matter.

"Don't be polite!"

Cui Yan smiled and raised his hand to return the salute.

His eyes swept around the crowd, and when he saw the young man standing in the corner who was not burly among the crowd, he was a little surprised, but he didn't take it to heart, thinking that it was someone from whom the Tyrant clan had brought it from.

At the invitation of the tyranny elder, tyranny and others, Cui Yan quickly went to the top to sit down, the original wooden table used by the tyrant was taken away by the three maids, replaced with a brand-new wooden table, Cui Yan gathered in the middle, and knelt on the top with Shen Lao.

Bai Yan stood behind the wooden table, looking at the children of the scholar clan, and came to both sides one after another, and Yan Yi, Lu Ji, Luan Hong and others consciously gave up their seats.

When he saw a middle-aged man from the scholar clan coming over, Bai Yan also stepped back.

Through observation, Bai Yan not only knew that the disciple of the Zhu clan that day was named Zhu Cheng, but also knew that the rest of the people were all first-class clans in Yangqi City, the Jun family and the Hao family were among them, and those young men all came with their fathers or the elders of the clan.

"Everyone, when we meet again today, we must all be people with lofty ideals who are dissatisfied with the Qin State and are determined to help the Korean community, so I don't have to rap, I am here today to gather together to conspire against Qin!"

After Cui Yan saw all the old men and middle-aged men kneeling down, he glanced at the young scholars and slowly spoke.

Quiet inside the main hall.

With Cui Yan's telling, everyone listened attentively to the arrangement, when they learned that Shen Lao was going to go to Chu with Tyrant Yu, there was no surprise, today they have also learned about the assassination of the king of Chu, and when they heard that the rebellion of Chu was made, the king of Chu and the queen mother were killed, they were also taken aback, they guessed that the state of Chu would be in chaos, but they never dared to think that it would be so chaotic.

Even the King of Chu and the Queen Mother dared to kill!

At night.

After the banquet, as the night fell, Bai Yan, who returned to the room, couldn't sleep, so he got up and came to the door, stood under the eaves, and looked at the bright moon in the sky.

Cui Ping's appearance made the original wish of the Tyrant disappear, and at the banquet that followed, the two of them, the Tyrant Elder and the Tyrant Yuan, were obviously quiet, and they were submissively echoing the whole process.

Even the tyranny is more silent than before.

However, although Tyrant Yu is uncomfortable, but for Tyrant Yu, Cui Yan is against Qin, which is a rare piece of good news, because this also means that there is no need for the Tyrant clan to lead the three hundred people to kill the county guard, and the Tyrant clan is naturally no longer in danger.

And when the more than 300 captive knights go to Xinzheng in the future, even Bai Yan doesn't need to think about how to deal with those more than 300 people.

"Jing Junzi, my lord asked you to go to the pavilion!"

A maid suddenly came to Bai Yan's side and said to Bai Yan.

Bai Yan was a little surprised when he heard this, but he still nodded.

Soon.

followed the maid to the pavilion, and Bai Yan saw that in the pavilion, except for the tyrant Yu, Shen Lao, as well as the tyranny old, tyranny yuan, tyranny, and Yanyi, were all in the gazebo.

Candles are placed on wooden beams, not only to provide shelter from the wind, but also to illuminate many candles together.

When he came to the pavilion, Bai Yan obviously felt that he glanced at himself in surprise, and then looked at other places, although he only had a glance, but Bai Yan could feel that it was different from the past.

Even the eyes of Yi Yi, Lu Ji, Luan Hong and others looking at him were a little complicated.

Bai Yan's brows frowned slightly inadvertently, full of puzzlement, not understanding what was going on.

"Speaking of which, it's a big deal after all, don't be careless~! It's even more important to check~! In order to seek great things, Ziyu must not keep it in mind! ”

Shen Lao's old cheeks, with a hint of sentimentality, said to Tyrant Yu.

The two people on the side, Tyranny and Tyrant, also nodded and looked at Tyrant Yu.

"Yes! Ziyu and Shen Lao have already said that this time our tyrannical work is all according to the work of one city! In this way, there is no need for the clansmen to take risks, isn't it beautiful! ”

"That's it, besides, it's because my tyrant clan has been in the past!"

Tyranny's uncle Tyranny, and Tyrant Yu's younger brother Tyrant Ding, all persuaded on the side.

Although Bai Yan didn't hear what was happening in front of him, it was not difficult to guess from watching this scene that it must be Shen Lao who had been appeasing Tyrant Yu.

Through this incident, it can also be seen why compared to those scholars in Xinzheng, they all decided to let Shen Lao go to Chu to lobby.

"You are Jing Mo?"

While Bai Yan was thinking about it, a large number of old Shen looked at the still silent Tyrant Yu, so he turned his head and looked at Bai Yan.

Seeing this, Bai Yan raised his hands and bowed his head silently.

"Yes! My name is Jing Mo! ”

Bai Yan said.

"Well, good name!"

Shen Lao nodded slowly and looked at Bai Yan.

"Ziyu has already told the old man about you, do you know why the old man asked you to come?"

Shen Lao asked.

With Shen Lao's words, Tyrant Yu's father, Tyrant Yu, and even others, even Tyrant Yan and others, all looked at Bai Yan curiously, and they were also very puzzled why, after the banquet, after the county guard Cui Yan left, Shen Lao couldn't wait to see this inconspicuous Jing Mo.

On swordsmanship, Hunyi has inadvertently mentioned the events of that day, and in terms of knowledge, when he told his experience from Tyranny, people couldn't help but shake their heads.

But these did not affect Shen Lao's desire to see Jing Mo in the slightest.

"I don't know!"

Bai Yan looked at Shen Lao with some confusion and shook his head.

I don't know if I don't know, Bai Yan looked at Tyrant Yu on the side, and found that Tyrant Yu's gaze was also puzzled.

Inside the gazebo.

Just when everyone was puzzled, Shen Lao suddenly smiled.

"Are you willing to learn martial arts?"

Shen Lao looked at Bai Yan and asked.

As soon as these words came out, all the people standing in the pavilion widened their eyes and looked at Shen Lao in disbelief, even Tyrant Yu and Tyrant Yu's father, Tyrant Old, were no exception.

Everyone understood what Shen Lao meant by this sentence.

Shen Lao is planning to accept Bai Yan as an apprentice!

"This"

Tyranny Yu's uncle, Tyrant Yuan, was directly dumbfounded, looked at his white-haired brother with doubts, and saw that his brother was also looking at him in surprise, to make sure that he had heard correctly, and then Tyranny looked at the young man who he didn't look down on in the past.

The three of them, Juyi, Luan Hong, and Lu Ji, were already red with jealousy, looking at the elderly Shen Lao, this is Shen Lao! is the same as Zhao Guoshen's Shen Yi, and more importantly, Shen Lao's identity, connections, and prestige are not much more powerful than Shen Yi.

Why can that kid actually enter the eyes of Shen Lao, why is he!

Martial arts don't know, I haven't read bamboo slips, and I don't have any strength, this weak appearance can't help but be windy, how to look at it and hate it.

"Shen Lao!"

Storm Yu also looked at Shen Lao with a shocked face, he didn't expect that Shen Lao's purpose in looking for Bai Yan was to accept Bai Yan as an apprentice.

"Why did Shen Lao fall in love with this kid?"

Tyrant Yu held back the shock in his heart, and after calming down a little panic in his heart, he asked with curiosity.

You must know that Bai Yan's words and deeds have been tyrannical in the past few days, and he can be as low-key as he wants, and even in the same place, whether it is a violent boy or a brother, an uncle, or a person like Yanyi, no one has noticed Bai Yan.

How long has Shen Lao only been in the Tyrant Mansion, less than a day, he has only seen Bai Yan for a few glances, how can he accept Bai Yan as a disciple.

Storm Yu's voice fell.

Everyone looked at the boy with all kinds of eyes.

Bai Yan was also a little stunned at the moment, this was the first person who took the initiative to accept him as an apprentice from childhood to adulthood, before in Linzi of Qi State, it was Bai Yan who helped the teachers to be buried, and the teachers were in their own talents and no one inherited them, and they also wanted revenge, so they taught Bai Yan wholeheartedly.

And Wei Lao's situation is a bit special, it was after teaching Bai Yan for a long time that Bai Yan apprenticed.

No elder has ever seen Bai Yan and said that accepting Bai Yan as an apprentice doesn't matter how low his status is, even some people who cheat have never said it.

Therefore, when Shen Lao opened his mouth to accept Bai Yan as an apprentice, even Bai Yan, who had been on the battlefield and experienced all kinds of frames, was a little stunned and stunned.

"Eyes, a person's eyes, do not deceive, and can see a person most clearly."

Shen Lao heard Tyrant Yu's inquiry, looked at Bai Yan, and said with a slight smile.

He was in the main hall just now, although he was talking, but his eyes were always looking at the young man from time to time, he clearly felt that this young man's eyes were different from others, and when he learned about the experience, as well as the events of the previous two days, he became more and more sure that the young man in front of him was a piece of jade.

“.”

Bai Yan raised his hand and was about to arch his hand to speak, when suddenly, a man outside the courtyard hurriedly ran to Shen Lao.

"My lord, this is a bamboo slip sent by Lord Cui, the county guard, and Lord Cui asked the adult to hurry over!"

When the man made the report, he immediately handed the bamboo slip in his hand to Shen Lao.

Shen Lao was shocked when he saw Hu Cong's appearance, and he felt that something big had happened, so he hurriedly took the bamboo slip and opened it.

After reading it, Shen Lao's face was full of panic.

"It's not good, there is an urgent order from Xianyang, and Cui Yan is ordered to immediately arrange tax grain and send it to Yishui!"

Shen Lao spoke, handed over the bamboo slip to Tyrant Yu, Shen Lao was not worried that the news would spread out, now the Tyrant's Mansion had already been involved in the rebellion, there was no way out, not to mention that the Tyrant was not stupid, Cui Yan, the county guard of Yingchuan County, had already rebelled against Qin, and the Tyrant couldn't leave Yangxi, once the Tyrant didn't rebel, the first one to be slaughtered was everyone in the Tyrant Mansion.

"Xianyang?"

When the tyrant and others on the side heard Shen Lao's words, they all frowned slightly, and their expressions were a little worried.

In other words, if they want to be suspicious of Xianyang in the Qin State, and want to get all the taxes and grains to help the Yan State indirectly, then they must do it immediately.

"Ziyu, follow me to see Master Cui!"

Shen Lao got up and said, the stakes are very important, there is no room for delay, and after speaking, he walked towards the outside of the pavilion.

Storm Yu got up and followed behind, but before leaving, he glanced at Bai Yan.

With the gaze of Tyrant Yu, Tyrant, Tyrant and others also looked at Bai Yan one after another, their eyes full of complexity.
