When Meng Yu heard this, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He was ordered by the King of Qin to greet the Yan State Mission, so he naturally knew that the deputy envoy of the mission was originally Qin Wuyang.

As a result, as soon as he arrived at Hangu Pass, he heard a report from the generals of the Qin army who were escorting the convoy that Qin Wuyang, the deputy envoy of the Yan State, died on the way, and it was said that he was killed by Jing Ke, the envoy of the Zheng State, because of the internal fire.

As the minister of reception, he did not want to ask about the secrets of other countries at the beginning, so he had to use Zhao Tuo as a breakthrough to find out the truth of the mission.

According to the information, this new deputy envoy is not only young, but also a royal background, and he will only be entrusted with important tasks because he is favored by Jing Ke.

Meng Yu has always been disdainful of this kind of person who sells his body to get to power, but he didn't expect that the other party's interrogation of him would be neither humble nor arrogant, and the bearing he showed was no less than that of some aristocratic children he had seen.

"If the deputy envoy has something to say, I should listen to it."

Meng Yu smiled slightly and made a gesture to Zhao Tuo.

Zhao Tuo bowed his hand and said, "The doctor just thought that the kid was too young and weak to take on the heavy responsibility of the deputy envoy, but the kid didn't agree with this. ”

"In terms of age, there was a young boy named Xiang Lu in the Spring and Autumn Period, who was a teacher of Confucius at the age of seven, and was famous all over the world.

"If it's too long ago. The doctor must have heard about Shangqing Ganluo. ”

"Today, King Qin's eyes are like torches, and he does not despise Gan Luo because he is young, and he makes the twelve-year-old Gan Luobai a secretary, which has become a beautiful talk for a while. As an important minister of the Qin State, how does the doctor feel about this? The kid thinks that the doctor will never think that King Qin is doing something wrong, right? ”

"Although the kid is young, he is close to Fu's status, and he doesn't dare to say that he is compared with prodigies such as Ganluo and Xiang Lu, but he is only a deputy envoy, and he can still do it by asking himself."

Zhao Tuo's voice was clear and eloquent.

His original identity was originally a noble child, his family genes are excellent, he has been beautiful and handsome for generations, and his appearance is very good.

Now after putting on the spare messenger costume of the convoy, he has become even more energetic, and he has his own demeanor in his gestures.

Meng Yu was surprised, he didn't expect this young man to be so powerful, and he used two allusions in just a few sentences.

In particular, he used the Ganluo incident as an argument to carry out a counterattack, so that he could not open his mouth at all.

You must know that the king of Qin, who worships the twelve-year-old Ganluo as the secretary in that story, is the ruler of the current Qin State, Qin Wangzheng!

Qin Wangzheng thinks that age is not a problem, why should he question this as a small doctor?

Are you questioning King Qin?

"What the deputy envoy said is that I didn't think about it."

Meng Yu was also upright, and apologized to Zhao Tuo on the spot, and there was no contempt on his face.

Jing Ke on the side smiled, and the satisfaction in his eyes became more and more intense.

……

After the convoy drove into Hangu Pass, it went all the way along the dangerous road between the valleys, and at dusk, it stayed in a pavilion in the pass.

The waning moon hangs high.

In the misty moonlight, Zhao Tuo took off his shoes outside the house and walked into Jing Ke's room.

Carefully cover the door behind him, and only he and Jing Ke were left in the room.

Jing Ke was sitting on the couch, reading the bamboo slips by the faint light of the lamp.

"Jing Qing."

"Go to the bed."

Zhao Tuo got on the couch with his socks and knelt opposite Jing Ke.

He put his legs close together, his knees and insteps against the mat on the couch, his buttocks resting on his heels, and his hands on his knees. This is the standard kneeling position.

"You have questions."

Zhao Tuo nodded and said, "I am confused in my heart, and I ask Jing Qing to answer." ”

"Say."

Zhao Tuo said softly: "I thought that Qin Wuyang's death had aroused the vigilance of the Qin people, at this time I should behave cowardly and silent, so that the Qin people think that I am incompetent, so that they will relax their vigilance and not pay too much attention to me." ”

"But Jing Qing motioned for me to stand up today, and for a while the edge was revealed, so that that Meng Yu noticed me, I don't know if it's good or bad to go on like this."

When Jing Ke heard this, he shook his head and smiled: "Although you kid is smart, he lacks experience after all. Let me ask you, Qin Wuyang is dead, and I let you enter Qin as a deputy envoy, is this matter suspicious to others? ”

"Suspicious." Zhao Tuo nodded.

"Then if, as you said, you are cowardly and can't bear the responsibility of the deputy envoy at first glance, but I let you be the deputy envoy, is this not suspicious?"

Zhao Tuo thought for a moment, and finally nodded.

Jing Ke said again: "You were smart in Han Nan's affairs before, and you were quite clever along the way, and everyone in the team knew about it. If you suddenly become cowardly and timid when facing the Qin people, is this a comparison before and after? ”

Zhao Tuo understood.

Just like Jing Ke said, he was very witty in the matter of Han Nan before, everyone knows about this matter, and the Qin people only need to inquire about it.

If he enters the Qin State and suddenly becomes an incompetent coward, this is equivalent to the collapse of his personality, forming a sense of contrast, which is not normal at first glance.

On the contrary, he continued to show the intelligence and sharpness of the young man, so that he could adapt to the previous character, so that he would not show flaws.

After all, a shrewd person like Jing Ke would not have chosen a fool and coward as his deputy envoy, and if he really did that, it would only make people suspect that there was something wrong with it.

Seeing Zhao Tuo's enlightenment, Jing Ke had a smile on his face, he leaned over, reached out and patted Zhao Tuo's shoulder. Said gently: "Don't worry, you just need to follow the words I taught you before, and you will be fine." ”

There was a sound of the door closing in his ears, and Zhao Tuo's figure had disappeared outside the house.

Jing Ke sighed lightly and put down the bamboo slip he was holding.

He loved to read and would read a book every night.

Don't look at Jing Ke is famous as a ranger, but he is actually a scholar in his bones, and his dream when he was a teenager was to be able to support the national government and show his talents.

He once relied on his enthusiasm and admonished Wei Yuanjun to serve the motherland with his talents and swordsmanship.

But Wei Yuanjun ignored him at all.

Jing Ke knew that defending the country would perish.

He has traveled all over the world ever since.

He had seen the Qi State under the rule of Qi Wangjian, which was bright on the outside but had long been decayed on the inside.

I have also walked in Wei and seen the crumbling Liang City, which has long been devoid of the majestic warriors.

He also sang in the wine shop of Handan City, listened to the mournful chanting of Zhao Nu, and witnessed the mediocre King Zhao destroying the city wall.

Finally, in Yan Kingdom, he found a soulmate.

As the saying goes, a thousand miles are hard to find.

But I don't know that Maxima often exists, but Bole does not often have.

Death for a confidant.

Jing Ke, willing to sacrifice his life to serve.

It was a difficult trip.

He hoped that the person he chose was not wrong.

……

Zhao Tuo walked towards his room. After becoming a deputy envoy, he no longer had to crowd the tent with others, and had his own private room.

There was a man standing in front of the room.

Zhao Tuo's eyes narrowed slightly, "Horizontal? ”

Heng's face turned a little pale, and he glared at Zhao Tuo.

"Tuo, did you come out of Jing Qing's room?"
