Zhang Ji leaned down, picked up the broken wine cup on the ground, and was about to walk into the wing, but his sleeves were grabbed by the girls behind him.
"Sir, if your clothes are dirty, they will be dirty, but don't be impulsive!"
"That's right. The person inside is Lord Zuo Sima and a confidant of the general. He can't afford to offend him!"
With a smile on his face, Zhang Ji calmly broke away from the girls' pull, turned around and walked into the side room, where he saw Zuo Sima Liu Yi, who had a beautiful wife.
At this moment, Liu Yi was drunk, swaying around, gesticulating and shouting, and could no longer stand still. The two maids wanted to step forward to help, but Liu Yi roughly pushed them away: "Get out!"
Liu Yi kicked open the table in front of him, and the exquisite dishes and wine spilled all over the floor. Liu Yi stepped on the floor that was wet with wine. His already unstable center of gravity tilted to one side as the soles of his feet slipped, and he fell straight to the ground.
Liu Yi, who was half drunk and half awake, tried to stabilize his body, but only changed the direction of his fall. The singers and maids on the side looked at each other. As soon as they took a step, their outstretched hands stopped in mid-air, hesitating whether to support Liu Yi.
Because of this hesitation, Liu Yi knocked his head straight towards the sharp corner of the table.
Just when Liu Yi's eyebrows were only a few centimeters away from the corner of the table, a hand grabbed his pocket and pulled the majestic Liu Yi.
"hiss!"
Liu Yi looked at the sharp corner of the table close at hand, and his fear instantly dispelled his drunkenness. A mouthful of saliva passed down his throat, and Zhang Ji pulled Liu Yi up.
"Huh...huh...huh!"
Liu Yi leaned against the wall, breathing heavily, looking frightened. Looking at the sharp corner of the table, he felt scared for a while, and then looked at Zhang Ji again.
Zhang Ji, who was dressed in white, clearly didn't look like a servant from Zilanxuan, and the jade pendant hanging around his waist didn't look ordinary either. Especially the sword on his waist!
Although his record in Baiyue was very impressive, since he was a general trained by Ji Wuye as his confidant, he was naturally a passable general. As a military general, he naturally likes weapons, so Liu Yi also has some knowledge about swords.
That majestic and simple sword is by no means an ordinary thing.
Liu Yi stared at the sword at Zhang Ji's waist with greedy eyes.
However, greed did not defeat his reason.
He knew all the powerful young men in Xinzheng, but he had never met Zhang Ji.
Then Zhang Ji is most likely a son of a powerful person who studied abroad. Such powerful children are often secretly protected by protectors. Maybe he will be slapped to death by the protector behind Zhang Ji as soon as he makes a move.
Furthermore, the common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade.
To be able to possess such a sword and still be able to wander around and live safely, maybe behind Zhang Ji is a top dignitary with real power in a certain country. Even with his identity as South Korea's Zuo Sima, he cannot be offended at all.
There is no way, South Korea is too weak!
It is connected to Zhao and Wei in the north, Chu State in the south, Qi State in the east, and Qin State in the west. It is no longer easy for South Korea to survive in this gap. How can it dare to provoke other countries?
Even though he is South Korea's Zuo Sima, with more than ten thousand Korean soldiers under his command, and Ji Wuye's confidant trained in the army, if he is questioned by the powerful dignitaries of other countries, Ji Wuye will definitely not mind handing him over in exchange. Peace between the two countries.
What's more, South Korea is not only surrounded by enemies on all sides, but also has enemies on all sides!
Zhao Guo still remembers that South Korea gave Shangdang to them, which triggered the Changping Battle that Zhao people have not recovered from yet!
As for Wei, after years of fighting at the beginning of its establishment, it chose to reconcile and form an offensive and defensive alliance. However, South Korea repeatedly used roads for Qin to attack Wei. Later, Wei finally couldn't bear it anymore and joined forces with Zhao to beat South Korea. Unexpectedly, South Korea contacted Qin. The "God of Killing" Bai Qi and Ranghou Wei Ran descended from the sky. They traveled 800 miles in eight days and raided the Wei and Zhao coalition forces. They beheaded 190,000 people, killed 20,000 prisoners, and captured more than ten counties. The Wei State was completely crippled and reduced to the same status as South Korea.
Now, although Queen Mother Leling of Wei State is the biological sister of Han Wangan's mother, the two parties are considered to be related by marriage and are friendly on the surface. But Wei still remembers its grudge against South Korea.
That year, Lord Xinling stole the talisman to save Zhao, and then led the five-nation coalition to defeat Qin. As soon as they reached Hangu Pass, Lord Xinling immediately turned around and attacked South Korea, an ally of the coalition. If Chu had not defended it, Korea would have really perished.
As for the Chu State, South Korea dynasty Qin Mu Chu, although they cooperated with the Chu State, they also cooperated with the Qin State to attack the Chu State many times, and their impression in the Chu State was not good.
Not to mention the Qin State. If the Qin State wants to go east, South Korea is the only way. Although South Korea is now very comfortable being Qin's little brother, Qin's heart to destroy South Korea has never been extinguished.
It was only because Qi State adhered to the policy of diplomatic neutrality of "serving Qin with caution and maintaining trust with the princes" that South Korea's eastern border could breathe.
Therefore, instead of taking huge risks to plot the sword on Zhang Ji's waist, it is better to make friends with Zhang Ji.
After all, South Korea is so weak that it may be gone one day.
Or maybe one day he can no longer survive in South Korea, and then he can use the family power behind Zhang Ji to switch to another country.
King Yan Zhao used the golden platform to teach the kings of various countries the principle of trading bones for gold. Due to emotions and reasons, he turned to South Korea Zuo Sima to another country. Even if he was not given real power, it would at least ensure his prosperity and wealth for the rest of his life.
Although the sword is good, it is not as important as life and wealth.
After thinking about this, Liu Yi's greedy look in his eyes instantly faded, he turned to smile, clasped his fists to Zhang Ji and said, "Thank you brother for saving your life."
Zhang Ji naturally didn't know that Liu Yi had thought about so many things in just a few breaths. Anyway, he was here to plot against Liu Yi's beautiful husband... Ahem, anyway, he was here to break the knot.
As for Liu Yi's greedy gaze on the sword at his waist?
Why do you care about a guy who is about to die?
The singers and maids on the side looked at Liu Yi's appearance as if they had seen a ghost.
Although Liu Yi has many military exploits, he is the Sima of the left dynasty, holds military power, and is the confidant of the general, but who doesn't know Liu Yi's evil reputation?
Lustful and cruel!
This is the impression that most people in Korea have on Liu Yi!
Except when facing King Han and General Ji Wuye, Liu Yike had never had such a face.
Liu Yi also noticed the surprised expressions on the faces of these singers and maids, and was filled with anger. Then he remembered that these lowly maids did not help him and almost killed him, so he shouted angrily: "They are all standing here in a daze. What are you doing! Why don't you change me to a clean wing? I want to thank this brother!"
The singer and the maids quickly left and led the two of them to another luxurious room. Liu Yi and Zhang Ji sat opposite each other. The table in front of them was filled with exquisite drinks and dishes.
Liu Yi showed an uncharacteristically kind attitude, raised his wine bottle, toasted repeatedly to thank Zhang Ji for his life-saving help, and asked Bo Bo about Zhang Ji's identity and background.
Zhang Ji also welcomed Liu Yi's toast. Qin Shi Mingyue's technology was very crooked. She obviously had silk stockings and high heels, as well as wonderful mechanisms such as the Suzaku, a flying machine bird, and the white tiger that roamed the battlefield. The alcohol content was still very low.
Even though it is Zilanxuan's Cold Dew Orchid Brewing, it only has the aroma and softness of orchid. It does not have a high degree of alcohol, and the taste is a bit like the beverage wine of later generations.
As for Liu Yi's test of his identity and background, he only said that he was from the Wei state and did not reveal much specific identity information.
It's not that Zhang Ji was deliberately wary of Liu Yi, but Zhang Yi's reputation in countries other than Qin and Wei was really bad.
His hero is my enemy.
How cruel Zhang Yi was in cheating the Six Kingdoms of Shandong, the Six Kingdoms hated him.
Especially Qi State, after Zhang Yi was forced to leave Qin, he wanted to peel off his skin and cramps, and turned around to attack Wei State, which made Zhang Yi prime minister.
It can be said that during the period of King Qin Huiwen, the six kingdoms of Shandong hated Zhang Yi as much as they hated Bai Qi during the period of King Qin Zhaoxiang. However, the Six Kingdoms of Shandong at that time may not have thought that there was someone in the world who could be more hated by them than Zhang Yi.
Although these hatreds have passed for three generations, no one knows whether they will cause any trouble. Zhang Ji relied on bribing the gatekeepers all the way from Zhao to South Korea to enter the city without showing the way.
So, in order to change the topic and increase his favorability, Zhang Ji toasted Liu Yi's wine in reverse, touted Liu Yi's great achievements in the Baiyue counterinsurgency war, and praised Liu Yi as no less than Lian Po and Wu Qi. The world-renowned generals like Zhang Ji made Liu Yi feel hot and almost regarded Zhang Ji as a confidant.
After this bottle of wine, the faded fear could no longer suppress the drunkenness. Liu Yi, who was half drunk and half awake, thought of his beautiful wife again.
"Hey, brother, do you know why my brother is here drinking?"
Liu Yi put one hand on the table, supporting his chin, with a bitter look on his face.
Normally, it would be impossible for him to reveal his bitterness to others, but he and Zhang Ji really met late, and because he was drunk, he confided his troubles to Zhang Ji, his "confidant".
"I heard something just now. It seems to be related to Madam?"
Hearing Zhang Ji mention his wife, Liu Yi's resentment seemed to have found a flood outlet, and he spoke out with the strength of wine: "Humph, what kind of noble lady is she? How can she be noble!"
"Her family was ruined. I not only took her in, but also took care of her with fine clothes and food. I could not wait to take out my heart and liver and give them to her!"
"But what about her!"
"We have been married for many years, but you still treat me as if you are away from me!"
"You won't even let me hold your hand!"
"I'm miserable!"
As Liu Yi talked, he burst into tears and cried.
"Brother, don't worry, I'm the best at dealing with women."
Zhang Ji patted Liu Yi on the shoulder, with a deep look in his eyes and a strange smile on his lips: "Let me help train my wife!"

PS: Lord Xinling led the five-nation coalition to defeat the Qin Dynasty. After attacking the Hangu Pass, he led Zhao, Wei, and Yan to sneak attack on South Korea, which was also an ally. This is historical fact and not made up by the author. This incident completely overdrafted the diplomatic credibility of the Wei State and Lord Xinling. Although it brought about a temporary revival of the Wei State, it also ruined the future of the Wei State. Once King Wei Anli, who had a high personal prestige, died, the Wei State once again became That weak country.
