At the beginning of June, only a few days have passed since Qi Wangjian surrendered to Qin, and in these few days, Bai Yan was very busy, if you describe it, it is that the chicken did not crow in the morning, Bai Yan had already gotten, and the dogs were sleeping at night, and Bai Yan did not dare to rest.

As a territory that has not been war-torn for decades, and it is also the capital of Qi State, Linzi's wealth is far beyond what people can imagine, compared to the wealth that Bai Yan saw in Xinzheng City after the destruction of Han at the beginning, all of them add up, they are far less than one-tenth of Linzi, and the distance is one-tenth, and it is still a lot worse.

And this is still the past after all strata of Qi State, all officials, and all scholars have all made money, and the rest will be handed over to the treasury of Qi State.

With the collapse of the Qi State, many orders in the Qi State have changed, and as the officials of the Qi State have lost their role, most of the processes of making money from all strata of the Qi State in the past have been directly interrupted, and in the absence of war, the wealth that the Qi State has gathered every day has not been much less.

"General! Yesterday, the Bairen Li family came to Linzi, and General Li Xin was drunk and did not wake up! ”

He came to the study and reported to Bai Yan, and after speaking, he hesitated, and finally looked at Bai Yan.

"Yesterday, the Li family came to visit, and then I heard that the general was in the palace to coordinate the treasury, so I left!"

He explained.

As Bai Yan's cronies, he knows the Bai people Li and has a close relationship with the general.

"I forgot!"

When Bai Yan heard the reminder, he remembered it, and recalled that he had mentioned this matter yesterday, but it turned out that there were too many things, and he forgot about it for a while.

Thinking of this, Bai Yan propped his head and rubbed his eyebrows.

"General! Lord Xun Shuo and Lord Xiao He have already arrived outside the mansion! ”

A cronie came to report at this time.

Hearing this, Bai Yan hurriedly asked his cronies to bring someone in.

After a while, seeing Xun Shuo and Xiao He talking and coming to the room at the same time, Bai Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xun Shuo, meet the general!"

"Xiao He, meet the general!!"

Seeing Bai Yan, Xun Shuo and Xiao He stepped forward and raised their hands to salute.

"If you two don't come again, this Linzi City will be in chaos!"

Bai Yan got up and asked the two of them to kneel down at the table, and then went to the wooden table on the side, personally picked up two wooden cups, and came over to pour tea for Xun Shuo and Xiao He.

"General, this is ......"

Not to mention that Xiao He was confused when he saw Bai Yan's actions, even Xun Shuo on the side also looked at Bai Yan strangely, and looked at Bai Yan personally pouring tea with a smile.

"Although the old officials of the Qi State stayed, but the Qi State perished, those officials were honest on the surface, but secretly they all obeyed the words of the scholars, the big and small affairs in Linzi City, taxes, cultivated fields, and land statistics of the Qi State, and they were submitted to them, Bai Yan didn't believe a word."

Bai Yan poured tea for Xiao He, said while pouring tea, and then when he poured tea for Xun Shuo, he turned the topic to the Shi clan.

"Linzi money, wine, prosperous place, Bai Yan has ordered the officers and soldiers in the army not to enter the city to burn, kill, rob, commit adultery, and plunder!"

After Bai Yan poured the tea, he looked at Xun Shuo.

"However, if it weren't for the fact that the generals under his command were all iron cavalry and old cavalry generals, I am afraid that now, there would be no general in the camp outside the city! The interests of the old Qi clan cannot be rashly deprived, otherwise the Shi clan will definitely try to cause a riot between the Qin army and the Qi people. ”

Bai Yan explained.

When Xiao He and Xun Shuo heard Bai Yan's words, they pondered for a while, their faces suddenly became serious, and they glanced at each other, at this time the two finally understood why Bai Yan said what he said as soon as he saw them.

Xiao He looked at the bamboo slip that Bai Yan had taken, opened it and looked at it, and the next moment, his eyes suddenly widened.

"So much?"

Xiao He raised his head and looked at Bai Yan with a stunned expression, his expression a little sluggish.

"This is still the number that the scholar clan allows Bai Yan to know!"

Bai Yan looked at Xiao He's expression, there was no surprise, he said slowly word by word, and then looked at Xun Shuo, who was holding a bamboo slip on the side.

Qi is the only vassal state among all countries that treats Shi farmers, industry and commerce as equals, and Qi State, which has not been war-torn for decades, has huge Shi clan interests behind the population, land, industry, etc.

When the Qi State is destroyed, the Qi Shi clan may be sad, but if they lose their industry, then the Shi clan will definitely fight hard.

Looking at why the people of the Li family of Zhao Dibai came to Linzi, it can be seen that the Qi family has tried their best to protect the family wealth.

"General, have you seen the gentry clan in the city in the past few days?"

Xun Shuo put down the bamboo slip, looked at Bai Yan and asked.

"The people brought by Chen Ze and Fu Yao, Bai Yan has already seen them, and there are famous scholars in Linzi City, and they have also seen more than ten people, but they have not said frankly that they can agree to it!"

Bai Yan nodded, glanced at Xun Shuo, his eyes were full of helplessness, he had been drinking until midnight from time to time in the past few days, and he had to continue to deal with the affairs of the Qi Palace when he came back, and he didn't dare to delay either side.

"That's not right! If the general has not answered...... How could the nobles in the city be so peaceful? ”

Xun Shuo thought about it and asked with some doubts.

In the eyes of Xun Shuo, who was born in the Xun family, Bai Yan entered the city and did not let go of his mouth for a day, it was like a sharp sword hanging over the heads of the scholars in the city.

Xun Shuo didn't believe that the Linzi clan would have no means!

Although Bai Yan's iron cavalry and side cavalry are all people who follow Bai Yan to life and death, but in the face of the methods of the warriors in the city, it is basically difficult for the soldiers with low backgrounds to resist the temptation, and they may not dare to betray Bai Yan, but if the iron cavalry soldiers are used to arouse the resentment of the Qi people in the city, it is not difficult.

Previously, the defenders of Qi in the city were all surrendered to Qin, not dead, as long as there was turmoil again, Bai Yan could not be without pressure, and the Qin army that raised Tang and Lu Ping would not only be unable to relieve Bai Yan's worries, but would be more convenient for the Qi family because of the arrival of other Qin troops.

Not every army of the Qin State is like the iron cavalry and side cavalry under Bai Yan's command, loyal to Bai Yan and has no regrets until death.

"Previously, Bai Yan let Tian Dan, Tian Heng and other clan relatives go! Only the three nobles had to flee the city and be killed by the soldiers! ”

Bai Yan looked at Xun Shuo, who was puzzled, and saw that only Lu and Xiao He were in the study, so he explained softly.

When Xun Shuo heard Bai Yan's words, his face suddenly showed a look of sudden realization, and he looked at Bai Yan with some admiration, guessing that Bai Yan must have had a premonition that he would face the current situation, so he would release him.

Letting go of Tian Dan, Tian Heng and other Qi clan relatives is not only to give Tian Dan and other Qi clan relatives a favor, but also to show the Qi clan in the city, telling everyone that Bai Yan will not kill them all, and only catch the three clan clans.

In this way, when the old clans of the Qi Kingdom in the city are appeased, they will also be alone, and they will not collude with the Wei Chuyan clan without authorization until Bai Yan has expressed his position.

"What is the general's plan?"

Xun Shuo looked at Bai Yan and asked.

Knowing the cause and effect, Xun Shuo looked at Bai Yan in front of him, and sighed that if he was replaced by other Qin generals, maybe Linzi would already be in chaos now.

"There are too many affairs, and it is inconvenient for the teacher to come forward, these days, I have bothered Brother Xun Shuo to see the Shi clan for Yan, and tell those old clans of Qi that what Bai Yan wants is the stability of Qi, so the old clan of Qi must no longer be related to the Shi clan of Chu, Wei and Yan, Bai Yan will write to Xianyang, requesting that all the old clans of the three places be moved to Xianyang, or Yanmen, and they will not be wiped out!"

Bai Yan said this, poured himself a cup of tea, and looked at Xun Shuo.

"Secondly, stop trying to restore!"

Bai Yan said while drinking tea.

Xun Shuo heard Bai Yan's words, and Xiao He on the side looked at each other, after knowing Bai Yan's thoughts, the two of them could also understand Bai Yan's worries.

………………

Inside Linzi City.

Shui Shou took his grandmother, sat in the carriage with Shu'er, and watched his uncle and father talk while walking, and behind him his mother took his wife Yunhan, and his aunt walked while strolling around the small vendors on the side of the street.

Looking at the current scene, Shui Shou's heart was full of emotion, once upon a time, just half a year ago, Mo said that he bought something for his eldest aunt, that is, his mother wanted to buy something for his wife, but he didn't have any money, and his wife was reluctant to say anything.

"Daddy! Shu'er will want her uncle to take Shu'er to ride a horse......"

The eldest son in his arms said in a milky voice, but his tone was obviously a little afraid, and this fear may be the kind of fear that the son has for his father in his bones.

Hearing the words of the eldest son, Shui Shou frowned, and then spread out.

"Uncle has to be busy, don't make trouble!"

In just one sentence, the tone was not the slightest harsh, but it made Shu'er so aggrieved that she didn't dare to speak again, so she could only look ahead in frustration, tears rolling in her little eyes.

Finally, in front of a huge mansion, the ox cart slowly stopped.

However, the family who said that they were going to come to Bai Yan, when they really stood in front of the door of the mansion, they all instinctively stopped, until the soldiers guarding the gate of the mansion felt strange, and then they stepped forward to ask.

After learning the identity of Yan's father and his party, the soldiers hurriedly invited Yan's father and others into the mansion.

"Uncle !!"

Bai Yan walked out of the courtyard from under the corridor, and then saw a small figure running over quickly.

After squatting down and picking up the child, Bai Yan looked at the group of people who came over.

"Daddy, mother! Maternal grandmother, uncle ......"

Bai Yan looked at his family with a smile on his face, and then asked the maid behind him to inform the servants in the back kitchen to prepare lunch.

"Haven't slept in the past few days?"

It was the first time in his life that he came to a mansion, and it was such a huge mansion, whether it was the gate, or the corridors along the way, looking at the carefully carved corridor wooden railings, and the garden, Xiao was a little at a loss, but when he saw the fatigue on his second son's face because of staying up late, his first reaction was distressed.

"The King of Qi has surrendered, and he has been fighting!"

Bai Yan looked at her mother's distressed appearance, and said with a soft smile, watching her grandmother come step by step.

"Grandmother!"

The corners of Bai Yan's mouth couldn't help but rise, and he shouted with a smile.

Xiao still wanted to say something distressed, but when he saw the appearance of this son when he saw his mother, he finally didn't say anything, but fortunately, for more than ten years, Xiao has been accustomed to the closeness of this grandfather.

However, at this time, Xiao suddenly noticed that under the corridor in the distance, a woman in uniform was strolling over.

As the woman approached, when they saw the woman's face, they were amazed by her appearance.

"Mother, father! This is Miss Zhao! This is Xu Shi! ”

Bai Yan was about to say that on the other side of Linzi City, he had bought two mansions, but before he could speak, he noticed that his mother's family, as well as his father and brother, all looked behind him in distraction, Bai Yan turned his head, and then saw that it was Zhao Qiu and Xu Shi coming, so he instinctively introduced his father and mother.

Bai Yan was not surprised to see Xu Shi wearing Qi clothes, but when he saw that Zhao Qiu was not only dressed up carefully, but also wearing the unique costumes of Qi State, this was something Bai Yan didn't expect, and he instantly looked straight and was very surprised.

"I've seen my grandmother, I've seen my aunt, my uncle, ......"

It was not the first time that Zhao Qiu had experienced the stunning appearance of others, but for some reason, this time Zhao Qiu's ears gradually turned red.

"Yan'er, who is this Zhao girl?"

Xiao Shi came back to his senses, asked with a stammer, looked at Zhao Qiu, who was amazing, and then looked at his second son.

"Mother, Miss Zhao is a woman who Yan'er met when she was in Zhao Kingdom, and she helped Yan'er a lot in the past......"

Bai Yan heard his mother's inquiry, and he didn't know how to introduce Zhao Qiu for a while, after all, Zhao Qiu's identity was really sensitive.

"Acquaintance in Zhao State?"

With Bai Yan's words, not to mention the Xiao family, it was Yan's father, Shui Shou, and Yun Han, who instantly noticed something, especially when he saw Zhao Qiu, who was wearing Qi clothes.

Father Yan and the others all quieted down, and their eyes kept looking between Zhao Qiu and Bai Yan.

"Grandmother!"

Zhao Qiu lowered his head, came to his grandmother's side, and slowly raised his two slender hands.

"Good! This outfit is really suitable......"

Grandmother looked at Zhao Qiu to support herself, and on her old face, she raised a satisfied smile and couldn't stop praising Zhao Qiumei.

On the side, looking at Zhao Qiu obediently stepping forward and supporting the smiling mother, Xiao Shi realized that he said some time ago that he wanted to propose to his second son, how ridiculous it was, compared to this Zhao girl, I am afraid that Xiao Shi will not be able to find a more beautiful woman than this Zhao girl in this life.

Thinking of this, Xiao Shi felt that something was wrong, and suddenly remembered that what she had heard in the past two days was that Yan'er's wife was the daughter of Tianfu in Linzi City of Qi State, a woman called Feiyan.

But this Miss Zhao?

Concubine?

Xiao Shi's eyes suddenly widened, and she looked at the second son beside her with a stunned face, she never dared to imagine in her life that her son could marry such a beautiful beauty, not to mention, such a beautiful beauty is likely to be only the second son...... Concubine room!!

Xiao Shi was a little confused, and he couldn't turn around in his mind, but at this time, Xiao Shi noticed another woman standing next to Yan'er.

"Auntie!"

Xu Shi stood silently beside Bai Yan, and when he saw Xiao Shi's gaze coming over, Xu Shi hurriedly bowed his head respectfully and said hello.

"Girl, have we met?"

When Xiao Shi looked at the girl named Xu Shi and marveled at the fact that she was also a beautiful woman, she suddenly vaguely remembered that she seemed to have seen it once.

"Back to my aunt, Master Xu happened to be in Shui Village before, and I happened to meet my aunt and uncle! But at that time, Xu Shi didn't know that his uncle and aunt were the parents of the general! ”

Xu Shi said a little embarrassed, and then lowered his head, when he saw Bai Yan's parents, Xu Shi was also stunned, feeling familiar, and then remembered that when she went to Water Village, she had met Bai Yan's parents, but she didn't know it at that time.

"Brother Zhong!"

Bai Yan hugged his nephew, looked at Zhao Qiu's back supporting his grandmother, thinking of Zhao Qiu's shyness on his face, Bai Yan's face was full of confusion, and he suddenly heard the voice of his brother beside him, turned his head to look, and saw his brother's smiling face, as if he was saying congratulations.

Bai Yan was also a little crying and laughing, knowing that it was difficult to explain.

Noticing that his brother and sister-in-law were in a trance and seemed to be thinking about something, Bai Yan motioned to his brother with his eyes to look at his brother and sister-in-law.

Seeing his brother turn around and talk to his brother and sister-in-law Yunhan, Bai Yan knew that his brother and sister-in-law Yunhan probably knew in his heart that in the future, his brother in Linzi would definitely have a scholar clan to send one beauty after another to his brother, maybe not as talented as Zhao Qiu, but he was definitely a beauty.

But......

Looking at the eldest brother who was almost flattering, smiling and talking to his sister-in-law Yun Han, Bai Yan had a vague premonition, the elder brother seemed to be the same as Feng Nian, and there was a high probability that in the future, there would be only one brother and sister-in-law.

Feng Nian is the most depressed time, when he meets the woman he likes, his brother is the most desperate time, and his brother and sister-in-law will never leave him.

The same is down, the same is not abandoned!

"Compare yourself ......"

Bai Yan couldn't help but sigh, for the first time in his life, he felt inferior to others.

Turning his head to look at Xu Shi beside him, Bai Yan thought of the experience with Xu Shi over the years, many things could never go back, and his heart gradually relieved, just like the tens of thousands of Qin soldiers outside the city, they followed him without regrets, could they really abandon them and leave, and let them be used by the nobles in the future.

Others don't say that once they leave, Wei Lao and the corpse old will definitely use the iron horse to do something before they lose control of the iron horse.

Behind Bai Junzhu is the Xianyang clan and the connections of court officials.

Behind Zhao Qiu is not only the orphan of Zhao Kingdom, but also the connections of the old Zhao family in the north.

Xu Shi's identity is even more sensitive.

The only thing that is easiest to give up is precisely ......

With a wry smile, Bai Yan looked at Xu Shi who was talking to his mother, and looked at Xu Shi's timid side face, he has been busy these days, and he didn't have time to warn Xu Shi about Xu Shi and Cen Qing.

Inside Linzi City.

Just as Wu followed the Zhan clan and tried his best to get in touch with Bai Yan, he even did not hesitate to look for the old man who brought him back to Linzi, wanting the old man to help them talk.

In a mansion strictly guarded by the soldiers of the Qin army, from the mouths of the old ministers who came to visit his father, he learned that Bai Yan was not a guest today, and it seemed that his family had come to Linzi City, and Fei Hanzi had been in a daze under the pavilion.

"Your Majesty! Hanzi wanted to see Bai Yan, but he didn't know how to open his mouth or how to get over! Let Yan Li take Hanzi to see Bai Yan! ”

Concubine Li was in the study, looking at the pavilion outside the window through the window, looking at the once lively and cheerful Concubine Hanzi, but now she seemed to be a different person, so she said to Qi Wangjian.

"Alas!"

Qi Wangjian, that is, Tian Jian, who has now lost the throne of King Qi, is also full of distress when he sees the appearance of his beloved daughter at this moment.

For Bai Yan, since he gave up the throne and returned to the Qin State, Bai Yan did not imprison him as he did with King Han, not only let him leave at will, but even allowed his old ministers to come to see him, which made Qi Wangjian also very satisfied.

It's a pity that Bai Yan doesn't seem to have a thought about Yu Hanzi.

"Go ahead! But beware, there is no shortage of resentment...... My people! ”

Qi Wangjian nodded, and said to Concubine Li, who seemed to be a little uncomfortable in his words.

During this period of time, the only thing that made Qi Wangjian puzzled by Bai Yan was that Bai Yan sent bamboo slips, informing him that Tian Dan, Tian Heng and others had not been caught in the past, and after sending people to investigate, it seemed that the person who assassinated Qi Xiang and Hou Sheng was the Chu Wei Yan Sandi Shi clan, and Qi Guo Tian Dan and other clan relatives did not participate.
