"Someone stabbed outside the palace?"

In the main hall of the King of Qi's palace, after hearing that the guards hurriedly came to report, not to mention the other civil and military officials, even the doctor Tian Cong, who was standing in front of the civil officials, and the prime minister Hou Sheng, they were all surprised and frowned.

Hou Sheng turned his head to look at the main hall, Qi Wangjian, who was already extremely angry, couldn't help but think in his mind, whether it was the Wei State Shi clan or the Chu State Shi clan who actually plotted to assassinate Bai Yan outside the palace gate.

Thinking of Wei and Chu, both of whom died at the hands of Bai Yan, after thinking for a while, Hou Sheng still felt that the Chu clan was more likely.

After all, when he was in Chu, Bai Yan and the Chu army fought, and the Chu people suffered countless casualties, whether it was Jing Qi, Changping Jun, Chang Wenjun, or even Qu Jingzhao's three families, as well as the Huang family, the Xiang family and other scholars, there were countless clansmen who died tragically at Bai Yan's hands.

Now that the state of Chu has been destroyed, most of the scholars in Chu have come to Qi, and their number is far more than that of Wei and Han.

"Your Majesty, this matter is related to the face of Qi and must be strictly investigated!"

"The ministers seconded it!"

Among the hundreds of civil and military officials, a few officials of the Qi State stood up from the ranks and admonished the King of Qi in the main hall.

However, unexpectedly, except for these officials, the civil and military officials in the main hall were all incredibly calm for such a serious incident, and they didn't seem to show angry expressions, and stood up to ask King Qi to investigate strictly.

"Check, we must find out to the widow, who is the one who instructed the assassin behind his back and assassinated outside the palace!"

Qi Wangjian in the main hall walked back and forth, and in his rapid breathing, he looked at the officials in the main hall, his eyes were full of anger.

"No!"

Qu Cheng, the guard in charge of the palace guards, heard Qi Wangjian's words, hurriedly kowtowed, got up with sweat, and ran quickly towards the outside of the palace.

"Father!! Woo woo woo ~ Father !! ”

Suddenly, there was a sound of crying outside the palace, and then Qi Wangjian saw Concubine Hanzi and ran in from outside the hall with a crying face.

Seeing his beloved daughter crying, Qi Wangjian was also relieved, as long as there was no accident in this assassination.

Thinking of the obedient and sensible appearance of Concubine Hanzi in the past, and then thinking of the fact that Concubine Hanzi was almost assassinated and died, Qi Wangjian sighed and motioned to the eunuch to take Concubine Hanzi to the main hall.

After Concubine Hanzi came up, Qi Wangjian listened to Concubine Hanzi crying while talking aggrievedly about things outside the palace, and his old face was full of anger.

Fortunately, at this time, Tian Xie, Tian Dan, Tian Wei, and Hou Yao also came to the main hall.

Qi Wangjian stood on the main hall, turned his head to look, and saw at a glance that behind Tian Xie, a young man who had entered the main hall and was wearing the official uniform of the Qin State.

"Father, Fang Cai is Wu Liejun, save Hanzi, otherwise Hanzi will never see his father again! Woo woo woo~! ”

Qi Wangjian heard the words of Concubine Hanzi beside him, looked at his beloved daughter crying, and saw Concubine Li not far away, so he asked Concubine Hanzi to follow Concubine Li to the harem first, and then talk about it after retreating.

"Qin Chen Bai Yan, knock on King Qi!"

After Bai Yan saluted Tian Wei and Hou Yao, he raised his hand and saluted King Qi in the main hall.

Because of the assassination, the Qi clan who came to the palace together did not all enter the palace, but let Tian Dan, who was the leader, come in.

At this time, standing in the palace of Qi State, bowing his head and bowing his head, Bai Yan didn't know if the King of Qi would embarrass himself, after all, it was rumored that Zhang Yi was the prime minister of Qin in the past, and he was sent to Wei State, and he was scolded by King Wei as soon as they met.

Of course, it was a rumor, and Bai Yan didn't know if it was true or not.

But now, when he came to the palace of King Qi to see King Qi, Bai Yan believed that King Qi would never order someone to catch him at this time and punish him with a stick.

After all, at this time, the Qi State was facing the Qin State after the destruction of Chu.

"You are Bai Yan! Qi people? ”

Qi Wangjian's voice came from the main hall, and after Bai Yan heard it, he put down his hand and looked up at Qi Wangjian in the main hall.

"Back to the King of Qi, it's a Qi person!"

Bai Yan stood in the center of the main hall, and said to Qi Wangjian in front of the civil and military officials of the Qi State, but this time, Bai Yan did not raise his hand to salute again, but nodded slightly, and looked directly at the King of Qi in the main hall.

"Since you are a Qi person! How could he help the Qin State lead the troops and threaten the Qi State now? I even saw the king of Qi, and I couldn't kneel down to pay tribute! ”

Suddenly, among the civil officials of the Qi State, an official spoke, and he was not far from Bai Yan's side, and scolded Bai Yan angrily.

Bai Yan tilted his head slightly, and glanced at the Qi State official with both eyes.

"Bai Yan is a Qi person! is also a Qin minister, if Bai Yan does not have the title of Qin State, he will naturally kowtow to the King of Qi as a Qi person, but now Bai Yan has come to meet the King of Qi, it is in the body of Qin Chen, if he kowtows, he will inevitably lose this Qin State official uniform! ”

Bai Yan said softly, and when he said the end, he looked at King Qi in the main hall.

The implication of this is that if the officials of the Qi State are allowed to make things difficult again, then whether it is because of Bai Yan personally or this clothes, there is no need to stay any longer.

As soon as the court of Qi opened his mouth, he asked Bai Yan, who was wearing the official uniform of the Qin State, to kowtow, which was inevitably a violation of etiquette!

Heard Bai Yan's words.

The officials of the Qi State who had just spoken, still wanted to refute, but suddenly saw the eyes of other officials, and even the King of Qi, their faces changed, so they endured it and looked at Bai Yan with some unwillingness.

Previously, this official had a friend, and when he was in Yanmen, he died at the hands of Bai Yan.

"I heard that before, you were driven out of Qi by Tian Ding? Is there such a thing? ”

In the main hall, Qi Wangjian didn't know if he understood Bai Yan's words, and suddenly turned the topic to the rumors of Tian Ding and Bai Yan.

"Back to King Qi, this is indeed the case!"

Bai Yan looked at King Qi and arched his hand and said.

As Bai Yan's words fell, many officials in the Great Hall of Qi Kingdom glanced at each other and discussed in a low voice.

"The widow is very curious, Bai Yan! Can you resent Tian Ding? If it weren't for Tian Ding in the past, you wouldn't need to leave the Qi country! ”

Qi Wangjian asked.

At this moment, Qi Wang Jian's face was already a little wrinkled, and his eyes looked directly at Bai Yan, as if he wanted to see with his own eyes whether Bai Yan hated Tian Ding.

In Qi Wangjian's heart, this is a matter of whether Bai Yan can return to serve in the Qi State.

Your Highness.

Hearing Qi Wangjian's inquiry, all the civil and military officials of Qi couldn't help but look at Bai Yan, wanting to see Bai Yan's answer with their own eyes, even Tian Cong and Tian Wei were no exception, after all, rumors are rumors, but what is Bai Yan's attitude towards his father Tian Ding, Tian Cong and Tian Wei want to know.

After all, even if you answer 'no hate', the same words, under different expressions, often mean many different things.

And in front of everyone's eyes, Bai Yan stood in the main hall, listening to King Qi's words, and knew that this seemed to be a simple inquiry, but how he answered it was very important.

Thinking of Tian Ding, thinking of Tian Feiyan, seeing Tian Wei and Tian Cong, they all cast their eyes, and finally, Bai Yan looked at Qi Wangjian in the main hall and raised his hand seriously.

"There was resentment, but there was no hatred!"

Bai Yan said softly.

The implication is to answer the feeling in his heart when he was driven out of Qi by Tian Ding five years ago, and this is indeed the case, Tian Ding's actions at the beginning made Bai Yan have no resentment, it must be impossible, but if it is hate, it is not enough, in Bai Yan's heart, even if there is no Tian Ding, one day, he will leave Qi and go to Qin to find opportunities.

"There is resentment but no resentment!"

Qi Wangjian, who had already returned to the throne and knelt down, heard Bai Yan's answer and savored it, and the whole person became a little excited.

Bai Yan's answer made Qi Wangjian see the possibility of repairing Tian Jin!

This is what Qi Wangjian has always been worried about after learning that Bai Yan was coming to Linzi, Bai Yan is Tian Jin's student, if Bai Yan has always hated Tian Jin's death and blamed him for being the king of Qi, then it is impossible for Bai Yan to return to Qi to serve his life.

And now, seeing Bai Yan say with his own eyes that he didn't hate Tian Ding for driving him out of Qi State, this made Qi Wangjian's heart full of joy, and Bai Yan didn't even care about Tian Ding's actions.

In the future, he, the king of Qi, pulled down his face, pardoned Tian Jin's family, and excavated a mausoleum for Tian Jin.

"Good!"

Thinking of this, Qi Wangjian couldn't wait to go down to the court immediately, see Bai Yan in private, explain this matter clearly, and Ling Shi went to find the person who buried Tian Jin.

Before getting Bai Yan's answer, looking at the Chinese military officials of the Great Highness in front of him, Qi Wangjian still didn't want everyone to know that Tian Jin was Bai Yan's mentor.

Inside the main hall.

When the civil and military officials of the Qi State heard Bai Yan's words, they all glanced at each other, and most of them nodded, as did Tian Wei and Tian Cong.

In the eyes of civil and military officials, thinking of Tian Ding's actions five years ago, everyone knows that it is normal to have grievances, if there is no grievances, then there is a fake, after all, he was driven out of Qi State, and if he is an ordinary person, it is estimated that he will hold a grudge for a lifetime.

Tian Wei and his brother Tian Cong glanced at each other, and the two brothers, who knew what was really happening, were relieved at this time, as long as Bai Yan didn't hate his father's past actions in his heart.

The two brothers know better than anyone else, and perhaps behind this sentence, there are also many reasons for the little sister.

"There was an assassin assassination, Concubine Hanzi was in danger, fortunately you rescued him, someone came, passed on the life of the widow, prepared five hundred gold, a mansion, and gave it to Bai Yan!"

Qi Wangjian's voice came, Tian Wei and Tian Cong turned their heads to look, when they heard Qi Wangjian's reward, Tian Wei and Tian Cong, just like the court's civil and military officials, looked at Bai Yan one after another.

"Thank you King Qi for your kindness, outside the palace gate, but Bai Yan made a convenient move, today, Bai Yan is a Qin minister, and the King of Qi is rewarded, and Bai Yan can't accept the kindness of King Qi."

Bai Yan arched his hand and said to King Qi, looking at King Qi's surprised face, frowning slightly between his eyebrows, Bai Yan didn't wait for King Qi to speak, and then talked about the purpose of this trip to Qi Kingdom.

"This time Bai Yan came to the Qi Kingdom to ask the King of Qi! Today's King of Qin, Chengtian's will, obey the hearts of the people in the world, calm the world's war, rest the first eight hundred years of the Zhou Dynasty, for several years, first receive Han Zhao, and then calm Wei Chu, Qin and Qi have always been allied, Qin and Qi have no war for decades, now the King of Qin has the heart to stop fighting, for the people of Qin and Qi to seek stability, I don't know if the King of Qi wishes that there will be no more soldiers in the world? ”

Bai Yan looked at the King of Qi and arched his hand and said, his words were not straightforward, after all, this is Linzi, surrounded by the civil and military officials of the Qi State, and on the main hall is the King of Qi, the king of a country.

To say it too bluntly is tantamount to sweeping people's face!

Know each other well that it is best to see through it and not say it.

"What a good one to the hearts of the people in the world! Forcing Qin to destroy all countries, swallow the territory of all countries, and kill people, this is what the world has seen with their own eyes, and Wu Liejun's words now are afraid that they will not cause people to laugh! ”

"Seek stability for Qin Qi! But the King of Qin is determined to divide the world equally with the King of Qi, rebuild the alliance between Qin and Qi in the past, and call the East and the West emperors? ”

Hearing Bai Yan's words, almost instantly, many Qi ministers became sarcastic with mocking expressions.

Seeing this, Bai Yan was not angry.

These are all officials of the Qi State, and their interests are bound to the Qi State, and when the Qi State is destroyed, their rights and status will no longer exist, so irony is human nature.

But Bai Yan didn't come here to argue with these officials, his purpose was just to open his mouth as the dominant person.

And so it is! Qin Qi has always been in good alliances, and now the King of Qin intends to talk about it, which is a good thing for Qi Guo! ”

"I also think so, Wu Liejun's words are not unreasonable, since the Zhou Dynasty, the world has been in turmoil for hundreds of years, if you can stop the war in the future, the world is stable, why not!"

In the palace hall, in addition to the officials who ridiculed Bai Yan, many officials who agreed with Bai Yan's words also began to discuss, and their voices came and went.

Looked at.

The officials of the Qi State who were sarcastic about Bai Yan looked at those officials with anger on their faces, listening to the words of those officials, it was difficult not to doubt how much benefits those officials had received from the Qin State in private.

But if there is no evidence, they are suspicious, and no one dares to make accusations at will.

On the main hall.

Qi Wangjian knelt in the throne, listening to Bai Yan's words, his brows furrowed slightly, looking at the noisy civil and military officials, and then looked at Bai Yan and asked Bai Yan what he meant.

Half an hour later......

In the palace of the king of Qi, Bai Yan followed Tian Dan and left the palace of the king of Qi together.

"Why is Wu Liejun loyal to Tyrannical Qin?"

Tian Dan couldn't help it, and looked at Bai Yan again and asked.

Regarding the controversy in the main hall of the Fangcai Palace, Bai Yan's clever words persuaded the Qi Dynasty to see the King of Qin, Tian Dan had already been mentally prepared for this, so it was not surprising, after all, at the beginning, Bai Yan's purpose in coming to the Qi Kingdom was for this.

It's just that Tian Dan is still unwilling, and wants to know from Bai Yan what it takes for Bai Yan to leave the Qin State and serve the Qi State.

"The grace of promotion, the grace of trust, the grace of reward......! Tian Jun's tyrannical Qin, Bai Yan's Ming Jun! It's just that the origins and circumstances are different! ”

Bai Yan said to Tian Dan, came to the outside of the palace, looked at the soldiers in disguise, had already driven the carriage over, Bai Yan gave up his hand, said goodbye to Tian Dan, and after Tian Dan returned the salute, he turned around and walked into the carriage.

Inside Linzi City.

Tian Heng was in the mansion, enjoying the kneading of the maid with his brother Tian Rong, and when he was talking, he saw Tian Dan coming back and got up one after another.

When he saw Tian Dan sighing and shaking his head, Tian Heng couldn't help but glance at Tian Rong.

"In the court, the king had the intention to test Bai Yan with a reward, but Bai Yan's heart was very firm...... By the way, can you find out who ordered the assassination? ”

Tian Dan told Tian Rong and Tian Heng about the affairs of the court, knowing that persuading Bai Yan to return to Qi to serve was not an overnight thing, so after finishing speaking, he asked the two of them if they could find out who the assassin was.

"It should be the Chu State Clan! Although those assassins have not yet found out the origin of the arrival, the clues revealed all point to the Chu State! ”

Tian Heng frowned and said, after he came back, he had already secretly sent people to investigate, but their people were not Qi Ji after all, and in Linzi City, it was not easy to find out thoroughly.

"Is there any news for thin mushrooms?"

When Tian Dan heard Tian Heng's words, he also frowned, then thought about it and looked at Tian Rong.

"Yes, but it's useless!"

While Tian Rong was talking, he took the two rolls of bamboo slips from the wooden shelf on the side, which recorded in detail the origin, origin, and who was in the family of the thin mushroom doorman.

In order to prevent omissions, everything is recorded in detail in the bamboo silk.

"Keep looking!"

Tian Dan looked at the bamboo slips, looking at the records on them, the doorman, and the people in the family, but looking at it, seeing the second volume of bamboo slips, Tian Dan suddenly found something different.

"Ever helped a doorman and asked someone to bring a message?"

Tian Dan looked at the bamboo silk and looked at Tian Rong with some curiosity.

When Tian Rong heard this, he nodded at Tian Dan, indicating that it was indeed as recorded in the bamboo slips.

"In the past, Tian Fake once passed through Bo Mushroom, because a doorman offended Tian Fake's favorite concubine, and was finally beaten half to death, and then this doorman remembered the old feelings, and looked at the breath left, so he looked for someone to bring a message to his family."

Tian Rong said.

Tian Rong didn't care about this matter, and he didn't take it to heart, after all, the doorman was helping another doorman, and it had nothing to do with Bai Yan at all.

Although I don't know Bai Yan's origin, it can be inferred from Bai Yan's ability to lead the troops that his background must not be low.

"Do you have someone to investigate?"

Tian Dan frowned, looked at Zhu Jian and thought about it, and asked.

When he saw Tian Rong shaking his head, Tian Dan looked at Tian Heng and asked Tian Heng to write a letter, so that the clansmen there could send someone to find out whether the doorman who offended Tian Fake was dead or alive now, and find out his origin.

After explaining, seeing Tian Heng nodding, Tian Dan put away the bamboo slips and continued to discuss with Tian Rong and Tian Heng how to persuade Bai Yan next.

For that official, in fact, not only Tian Rong, but also Tian Dan and Tian Heng, they didn't take it to heart, and now it was just Tian Dan's mind to investigate easily, so he specially instructed.

…………………………

At night.

In Linzi City, even if it is dark and the streets are dim, there is a lot of traffic, and there is an endless stream of people coming and going.

If you talk about the prosperity of commerce and trade, there are many merchants, it should be Linzi, especially after all the countries were destroyed by the Qin State, the scholars of the former countries have migrated to Qidi, and the population that came with them is far beyond everyone's imagination.

And the more people, the more the demand, there is demand, in Linzi City, there will be a place where the supply demand will continue to arise.

This is the case with restaurants.

However, unlike in the past, on this night, the most lively thing was not the most famous restaurants in Linzi in the past, but another place.

The Qin State was stationed in the embassy.

From the evening until nightfall, and then until late at night, the lively atmosphere in the embassy decreased slightly.

Outside the door of the mansion, in the middle of the night, all the drunken officials of the Qi State and the people of the scholar clan staggered out of the mansion, chatting and laughing about finally drinking Bai Yan.

Thinking back to Fang Cai and Bai Yan's drinking, among these people who left the mansion, regardless of age and identity, one of them counted as one, they couldn't help but say happily, and they were also full of admiration for Bai Yan's drinking.

After all, tonight in the mansion, so many people respected Bai Yan alone, and they didn't remember how many pots of wine went into Bai Yan's belly, Bai Yan alone vomited several times, during which Bai Yan never left the banquet, kneeling behind the wooden table, and did not stop until he was completely drunk and unconscious.

At today's banquet, even Mao Jiao, the secretary of the Qin State, was so drunk that he needed the support of the maid before he could leave.

"Farewell!"

"Farewell !!"

One by one, the drunken Qi scholars said goodbye to each other with a smile, and returned to their carriage with the support of Hu Cong.

After saying goodbye to his friends and colleagues, Tian Sui also came to a shade tree, and then couldn't hold back anymore and vomited, during which many people outside the mansion couldn't help laughing, and then left in a carriage.

"How much do you drink...... Vomit~!!! ”

Tian Wei was about to talk to the servant beside him, but before he could speak, he couldn't help but vomit again.

Bai Yan, who was wearing a cloth robe, couldn't help but smile and pat Tian Sui's back, thinking that Tian Sui had to secretly fight with himself for wine, he wanted to laugh a little.

After Tian Wei came to his senses, Bai Yan helped Tian Wei, who was weak in his legs and feet, and went to the carriage with difficulty.

Because Tian Wei did not come in a carriage, so after drinking, he took the carriage that left, which was the carriage of the embassy, Bai Yan took Tian Wei to the carriage, got into the carriage, and saw Zhao Qiu and Xu Shi who had been hiding in the carriage.

Tian Wei was completely paralyzed and lay in the carriage, not to mention that Zhao Qiu moved away with a disgusted face, even Master Xu couldn't help but use his slender hand to block his nose.

As the carriage slowly drove away, Bai Yan, who was wearing cloth clothes, lifted the window without saying a word in the dim carriage and looked out of the window.

In the silence.

Zhao Qiu and Xu Shi, no one made a sound to disturb Bai Yan.

I don't know how long it has passed, but with the carriage driving all the way down the street, from the lively restaurants to the remote and quiet places.

"Stop!"

Bai Yan spoke softly.

Following Bai Yan's instructions, the carriage slowly stopped at the mouth of a small alley, and before the carriage could stop, Bai Yan had already jumped off the carriage.

Instructed the other four cronies who followed, as well as the cronies who drove the carriage to wait here, Bai Yan watched Zhao Qiu and Xu Shi get out of the carriage, and without waiting for the cronies to prepare torches, he took the second daughter and walked towards the dark alley.

The night is at the end of the day, under the bright moon.

In the dark street, Bai Yan walked very slowly because of his scruples about Zhao Qiu and Xu Shi, but when he came to the depths of the alley, a familiar fragrance faintly came.

A moment later, when he saw a small courtyard that had not been closed, looking at the faint light coming from the small courtyard, Bai Yan's eyes could no longer be controlled, tears rolled in his eyes, and then flowed down his cheeks.

"Mother, it's late at night! Yan'er may not be back today! Mother didn't say that Yan'er wouldn't come back so soon, Yan'er still had important things to do, and she needed to wait for a long time......"

"Mother! Don't wait! Hey, my mother knows that Yan'er won't come back so soon, so I have to make corncakes, mother, this corncake will be hot tomorrow......"

"You don't understand, if Yan'er comes back, she likes to eat this corncake! When I was a child, every time I came home, I pestered me to ......"

Approaching the small courtyard step by step, Bai Yan listened to the familiar voice in the small courtyard, and on his cheeks full of tears, he kept sobbing, and his shoulders trembled uncontrollably.

Five years!

Leaving five years ago, Bai Yan is looking forward to coming back on this day and coming back to see his grandmother.

When he was a child, his grandmother protected him.

Now, he has finally achieved fame and has returned.

Ten steps, five steps, three steps......

When Bai Yan walked to the door of the small courtyard, his eyes were hazy, and he saw that in the houses in the courtyard, in the dilapidated door, his grandmother was busy under the candlelight, and the eldest uncle was standing behind his grandmother, and the eldest aunt walked by in front of the door.

Zhao Qiu and Xu Shi stood beside Bai Yan, looked at Bai Yan beside them, and looked at the wooden house in a daze, with a smile full of joy and tears on their faces.

At this moment, whether it was Zhao Qiu or Xu Shi, thinking back to hearing the old woman's words, looking at Bai Yan in front of him, his eyes couldn't help but redden, looking at the wooden house in the courtyard, happy for Bai Yan.

At this time, Zhao Qiu finally understood why Bai Yan was so persistent, even if it was late at night, he couldn't wait to return here.

The old woman was waiting for him!

When Zhao Qiu sighed, he couldn't help but feel a little envious in his heart, and at this time, Zhao Qiu saw the middle-aged man in the house, and he also felt something, standing behind the old woman, and inadvertently, he also turned his head to look at the door.

In the past few days, the knife and the daughter-in-law have been ready for premature birth, and the things that should be bought have been bought, the daughter-in-law with the knife is not in good health, the weather is cold, and she eats less and more meals, sorry, the update really can't be fixed.
