Nanyang is a military fortress on the border with South Korea, and as the Qin army continues to send more troops to the border between the two countries, the entry control here is becoming more and more stringent.

It took a lot of effort for Xiong Da to finally let the caravan into Nanyang.

"Time is running out, let's go find the Nanyang County Guard first."

After entering Nanyang, Xiong Da took out a 'sundial pocket watch' from his arms, put it flat in his hand, looked at the shadow of the pointer slanted down by the sun, and found that there was less than an hour left before it got dark.

Before nightfall.

Xiong Da took Xiong Er to the Nanyang County Shoufu, and after the transmission, the two were soon summoned.

After walking into the county guard's house.

Nanjun County Shou Zuo Teng was sitting in the lobby waiting, and when Xiong Da and Xiong Er arrived, they could still vaguely see the hesitation and sorrow between Zuo Teng's eyebrows.

It wasn't until he saw Xiong Da and Xiong Er arrive that Zuo Teng's frowning brows calmed down.

Waiting for the next person to come up, he offered a cup of tea to Xiong Da and Xiong Er, and then after retreating, Zuo Teng took a sip of tea and said gently: "I don't know the two noble surnames?" What are you doing to visit this official this time? ”

"What? Didn't the Zuo Teng County Guard know us so soon? ”

Although Xiong Da and Xiong Er are now in a state of disguise, their voices have not changed, and when they heard Xiong Da speak, Zuo Teng was obviously surprised for a moment, and then his face changed slightly.

He looked at the guards in the distance and changed his words: "This is not a place for negotiation, and I invite the two gentlemen to come to the backyard with me." ”

said.

Zuo Teng was the first to get up and walk towards the backyard from the side door of the lobby, followed by Xiong Da and Xiong Er.

When he came to the backyard, Zuo Teng first drove the people in the courtyard out, and then led Xiong Da and Xiong Er into the study, and after closing the doors and windows, he bowed to the two again.

"How did the two gentlemen come to Nanyang at this time? Could it be for ······"

"Don't get me wrong. This time the Qin-Han border incident, my family has no intention of participating, I came to Nanyang on this trip, just ordered to do some things. ”

"I see."

Zuo Teng breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Xiong Da was surprised: "I feel that the pressure on Zuo Tengjun Guard seems to be very high recently?" If you don't mind, why don't you say it and let me hear it later? ”

Zuo Teng's expression froze at first, and then he suddenly remembered the background of the two people in front of him, and felt that the secret he was hiding in front of the two seemed to be unnecessary, so he smiled bitterly.

"Presumably, the two gentlemen also know some of the 'identities' in the next place, so they won't hide it from the two of them. In fact, not long ago, someone from the Qin State had already sent a secret letter that they were going to attack Korea in the near future. ”

"Hmmm! I've heard about it. However, this matter has been many years ago, Zuo Junshou has already plotted to reach a cooperation with the Qin State, is it not now going to regret it? ”

Xiong Da's eyes flickered slightly.

Regarding Zuo Teng's 'internal response' identity, Xiong Nature has also learned from Mo Jun's mouth. If it weren't for knowing this secret, the Chamber of Commerce led by Xiong Da would not have cooperated with Zuo Teng many times over the years.

Zuo Teng shook his head and said: "The wood is already in the boat, and since I have already made a decision, I naturally will not regret it at this critical juncture." Moreover, he was willing to cooperate with the Qin State at the beginning, not because he valued the various benefits promised by the Qin State, but now that the high-level elites in South Korea are rotten, in order to give the low-level Li people a way to live, they made this decision in the next place. ”

"And now it seems that this decision was the right one."

"In recent years, the deduction of those princes and nobles in the upper echelons of South Korea has become more and more serious, and even last year's heavy snowfall, if it wasn't for the two gentlemen who supported a batch of food in time, maybe the people of Nanyang today, even if more than half of them were killed or injured, it might not be impossible."

"Speaking of which, I still need to express my gratitude to the two gentlemen."

When he said this, it could be seen that Zuo Teng's gaze was still a little hesitant at first, but in the end, it gradually turned into resoluteness. and got up and bowed to Xiong Daxiong Er.

Xiong Da hurriedly got up and saluted: "Zuo Teng County Guard doesn't have to be polite, I'm just acting as ordered." But since Zuo Tengjun has already made a choice in his heart, why hesitate now? ”

Mentioning this matter, Zuo Teng, who was still resolute just now, instantly showed a helpless look on his face, sat back on the cushion, and said bitterly:

"It is not the war that worries me, but what happens after it. Last year, a heavy snowfall caused the bottom people of the entire South Korea to suffer a lot of vitality, although there was a batch of food supported by the two gentlemen in Nanyang, they barely survived the difficulties. But now that the autumn harvest has not yet arrived, if there is another big war at this time, I don't know how many people will be displaced and homeless. ”

"Heh~~ It turns out that Zuo Teng is worried about this matter? If this is the case, Zuo Teng County Shouda does not have to be like this. ”

Facing Zuo Teng's sorrow, Xiong Da suddenly smiled softly and said, "I can't hide it, the reason why my family asked me to come to Nanyang this time is to solve this matter." ”

Hearing this, Zuo Teng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in surprise: "That adult is even prepared for this matter?" ”

Xiong laughed and said: "My lord once promised to protect all the people of Great Qin, if Nanyang becomes the territory of my Qin State, the people here will naturally become the people of Great Qin." ”

"So Zuo Teng County Shou don't have to worry, this time I led the Chamber of Commerce to secretly put a sum of grain outside Nanyang City in batches, once the battle of Nanyang is over, this grain will immediately turn into 'disaster relief food'."

"As for the aftermath, all those who have become displaced due to the war can move to Hanzhong County with me to live."

After listening to Xiong Da's words, Zuo Teng's eyes became brighter and brighter, and the sorrow between his eyebrows was swept away: "If this is the case, I will have no worries." ”

"However, this matter will still need the cooperation of Zuo Teng County Guard, after all, we are not Korean people after all, and we are far less familiar with this place than Zuo Teng County Guard. In addition, the sooner the war ended, the less damage Nanyang would suffer. ”

"I naturally know about this."

Regarding Xiong Da's last reminder, Zuo Teng naturally heard what the other party meant. But as long as peace can be restored to Nanyang as soon as possible, even if he bears the infamy of being a 'traitor', Zuo Teng is willing.

"But speaking of which, there is still a doubt in my heart? Zai and that adult have never been masked, why does he value Zai so much. ”

This is the only thing that Zuo Teng has not figured out yet, he and Xiong Daxiong Er have known each other for several years, and it was obviously only the first time they cooperated, but the other party showed a good understanding of him.

And what is even more unexpected is that the one behind these two people seems to have heard his name, and even helped him through difficulties many times.

It's not that Zuo Teng looks down on himself, but with his status and status, he may still have three points of face in front of ordinary landlords and nobles, but in front of that person, saying that he is a fart is probably exalting him.

After all, even if it is a fart, it can still make a sound, and he, an unknown Nanyang county guard, can still have a name in South Korea, but in the Seven Kingdoms, it is really nothing.

In the face of Zuo Teng's response, Xiong Da did not answer, but smiled slightly: "Zuo Teng will know about this matter in the future." If there is nothing else to do with Zuo Teng, then I will leave first. ”

"Wait, gentlemen, there's something I really want to ask you to do you a little favor······"
