Zhang Ji's mansion, main hall
Zhang Ji was sitting on the main seat, looking at Han Fei who was sitting on his right, the blue and white wine he had brought back from the Mo family's main hospital, and the wine that Jade Tiger had left for him when he paid tribute to Ji Wuye's wine a few days ago. There were several jars of white apricot blossoms, but Han Fei had no idea of touching them at all.
Moreover, Han Fei's face was full of sadness. Although Han Fei always looked like a swinger in the past, he paid great attention to his own cleanliness.
At this moment, Han Fei looked a little unkempt, with a lot of stubble on the corners of his mouth and chin. His peach blossom eyes, which had always attracted women, were even more bloodshot. It was obvious that Han Fei had not had a good rest these days.
Zhang Ji couldn't help but sigh after hearing Han Fei's request.
This Han Shen would really cause trouble for him.
It was naturally impossible to hide the fact that Han Fei had gone to the Korean branch of the Mo family from him, and Han Fei came to his mansion without stopping after making that salute. It must have been Han Shen who gave him the idea.
But now Zhang Ji's purpose of staying in South Korea is just to wait for Ying Zheng who is still on the road. As long as he meets Ying Zheng once, he will return to Qin with Ying Zheng.
In the final analysis, South Korea is just his springboard.
And he chose to use South Korea as a springboard only because of the wives and concubines who gathered around him now.
Therefore, as long as Ye Mu didn't do anything to him, he had no reason or need to seek trouble from Ye Mu.
Coupled with the two major backgrounds of Luo Wang and the Mohist family behind him, he should not take action against Ye Mu, who is now Luo Wang's close collaborator, nor should he intervene and get involved in the political struggle in South Korea again.
If he really wanted to take action, he would not be able to mobilize the power of Luo Wang and the Mo family, but would have to take action himself.
Han Fei naturally knew this.
"Everyone in the world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit." Han Fei seemed to have returned to the original Ninth Young Master Han Fei, who was very resourceful and played tricks with Ji Wuye on the spot in the General's Mansion. His decadence turned into fierceness, and he looked at Zhang Ji, "If I can pay a sufficient price, I wonder if I can ask Brother Zhang Ji to take action for me?"
"Then what price can you pay?"
Zhang Ji was a little curious about what conditions Han Fei could offer. If he took action alone, and only against Tianze and others, as long as he didn't rescue the prince Han Yun, it wouldn't be a big deal.
After all, Honglian's robbery was not part of Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei's plan. It was Tianze who had a rebellious heart and deliberately did an unnecessary thing, which disgusted everyone.
But the price Han Fei had to pay for Zhang Ji's action would still be high.
He naturally has no shortage of external possessions such as gold, silver, and jade. Even the property in Han Fei's mansion plus the Ninth Young Master's mansion are just a drop in the bucket in Zhang Ji's eyes.
Although Han Fei is a Sikou and is in charge of Korean criminal law, he does not have too much real power. And with Han Fei's persistence in the law, it is obvious that he would not seek personal gain for him.
So, what offer could Han Fei make that he was so confident that he thought he couldn't refuse?
"A favor from me."
Zhang Ji frowned and looked at Han Fei suspiciously.
Favors can be big or small, but Han Fei's favors are probably worthless in the eyes of most people. After all, Han Fei is too weak now.
However, Zhang Ji was very interested in this favor.
"What kind of favor?"
Han Fei and Zhang Ji looked at each other with sharp looks in their eyes. At this moment, they were not friends, but buyers and sellers who were negotiating.
"A favor...as long as it doesn't violate Korean laws, doesn't damage Korea's interests, and doesn't make me betray Korea, I and the quicksand behind me will do our best to repay it!"
Han Fei's favor means that if Zhang Ji has any enemies, he can be dealt with by Liusha, no matter who they are, as long as they are not from South Korea.
But the seemingly heartwarming favor is actually worthless to a person at Zhang Ji's current level.
The quicksand was just beginning to take shape, and even the counter- quicksand headed by Wei Zhuang was nothing in his eyes.
After all, when it comes to assassinations, what organization can compare to the Snare?
But, he thought of one thing.
"If one day, South Korea takes the initiative to abandon you, and your father takes the initiative to send you to another country as a minister and does not allow you to return to the country, then I want you to be loyal to that country sincerely. Can you do it?"
Seeing Zhang Ji relent, Han Fei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The question showed that Zhang Ji still valued this favor, but he didn't understand why Zhang Ji would ask such a question.
It was possible for South Korea to abandon him on its own initiative, and it was also possible for Han Wangan to abandon him. In the final analysis, Han Wangan did not pay much attention to the father-son relationship with him.
But sending him to another country to serve as a minister?
During the Warring States Period, it was not surprising for the children of royal families from various countries to serve as ministers in other countries. For example, Jing Jian, the favored minister of Duke Xiao of Qin who recommended Shang Yang three times, was a descendant of the Jing family with the blood of the Chu royal family; Wei Zhang, the prince of Wei, beheaded 80,000 Chu troops in the Battle of Danyang and captured Hanzhong with Zhang Yi.
But now King An of Han has no one under his command. Only Prime Minister Han Kaidi, Fourth Young Master Han Yu, and his Ninth Young Master Han Fei can work for him. How stupid must King An of Han be to abandon his colleagues? Then send him to another country to serve as a minister?
After all, if this was Ye Mu's plot, it would be impossible for him to leave South Korea alive. It could only be a decision made by Han Wangan on his own initiative.
Han Fei is a man who is obsessed with the law, but he is not a pedantic person.
He is patriotic, but he is not foolishly loyal.
Therefore, Han Fei nodded and said, "It's all right."
Zhang Ji and Han Fei high-fived each other as an oath, and then Han Fei left quickly, and a deal in which both parties felt they had made a lot of money was concluded.
It wasn't until Han Fei left that Zhang Ji couldn't suppress the smile on his face and burst out laughing.
The binding force of an oath is very strong for people in this era, much stronger than the paper agreements of later generations. After all, the price of breach of contract is money at most.
Breaking an oath not only hurts a person's reputation, but also his political future.
Therefore, even if a generation of overlords like Qi Huangong were humiliated by Cao GUI, they had to abide by their oath and return the land of Lu.
Moreover, this era was very superstitious. Anyone who swore an oath to the emperor, heaven, and queen would be abandoned by heaven and earth. Not only would he become an unfortunate person, but his family would also be affected.
However, even if he was as smart as Han Fei, he probably would never have imagined that there would be an emperor who was thirsty for talents throughout the ages, and would rather miss an opportunity to destroy South Korea than include him in his trap.
Moreover, what gave Han Fei the illusion that the lustful Zhang Ji would never have the guts to hook up with Hong Lian?
After all, Han Wangan's real "pearl" is already a member of Zhang Ji, not to mention Honglian, the pearl in Han Wangan's mouth?
Han Fei also thought that he had made a lot of money from Zhang Ji, and wanted to escape quickly, lest Zhang Ji regret it. Zhang Ji, on the other hand, wished that Han Fei would leave quickly so that he could get the matter done quickly, lest Han Fei react and want to regret it.
Such a deal-like oath would be considered official only after Zhang Ji fulfilled his promise, so Han Fei had the opportunity to go back on his word.
So, the anxious Zhang Jidang called Yan Lingji.
Finding traces of Princess Honglian is not an easy task, even if you use the net and the power of the Mo family. And if we don't use the power of Luo Wang and the Mohist family, it will be even more difficult to reach the sky with Zhang Ji alone.
But Zhang Ji has a unique advantage!
He has Yan Lingji!
The strange people and strangers in Baiyue all have special connections and can sense each other's existence and location.
Although Yan Lingji cannot sense Tianze's position, she can sense the positions of Wushuang Ghost, Hundred Poison King and Exorcist Demon around Tianze.
Once the location of Wushuanggui and others is found, it also means that the location of Guren is found!
