Seeing Zhang Er's expression, everyone stopped and looked at Ziyou and Zhang Er.
"I wonder where your descendants are now?" Zhang Er asked, cupping his hands.
"She is in a very safe place." Ziyou did not say that Ji Yan was at Little Saint Xian Manor. In the words of later generations, disciples like Xinlingjun were fanatical fans. If they knew about it, it would most likely spread. Can the Little Sage Village be safe at this time?
"Please sir, please make it clear that your Majesty only has one child and nothing will happen to him anymore." Zhang Er said, bowing to Zi You.
The people around him also looked at Ziyou with worry. When Lord Xinling was assassinated, they were all dispersed because of the suspicion about Lord Xinling. After they got the news, it was already too late. All they saw was Lord Xinling's body. Then For a moment, the light in their hearts disappeared, and everyone became depressed. Later, at the invitation of Zhang Er, they came to live in Weijiazhuang. The reason why the layout of the whole village was strange was because it was the place where they lived at Lord Xinling's Mansion. Where they live, now that they know that Lord Xinling has a child in the world, they have new hope in their hearts.
In the Warring States Period, retainers and diners were essentially the lord's aides and thugs. Some diners were resourceful and could make suggestions, such as Feng Xuan who served as Lord Mengchang's retainer. Some retainers were highly skilled in martial arts, so they could go through life and death for the lord, such as Zhuan Those who have been Gong Ziguang's disciples, but this is a relationship of personal dependence, and they are all attracted by the master's strong personality charm. This relationship is also very loose. The disciples will only work for the master and will not Serve the government behind the Lord.
Relying on this strong personality charm, the retainers can easily become the lord's loyal followers. After the lord's death, the ordinary retainers will leave, but the loyal retainers will not, but continue to serve the lord's descendants. Xinling Lord has three thousand retainers , most of them are die-hard loyalists of Lord Xinling, and the rest are also people who admire Lord Xinling.
"No, telling you is the biggest unsafe thing. What do you think will happen if some people know that Lord Xinling still has descendants alive in the world?" Ziyou asked.
Zhang Er knew that Zi Lu was right. If the news spread that Lord Xinling's posthumous son was alive, many interested people would target him. Lord Xinling's reputation and influence were too great. Although the original Most of the three thousand guests were scattered, but now most of them have great status and status. Take Wei State as an example. Why Zhang Er knew that Ziyou had the jade pendant of Lord Xinling was because the person who guarded the city gate was Xinling. Your disciple.
"I would like to invite you into the room, sir. I have something to discuss with you," Zhang Er said.
"Sir." Black and white Xuanjian blocked Ziyou with a sharp sword. The meaning was obvious. Ziyou was crucial to Luo Wang, and he did not dare to put Ziyou in danger.
"What do you mean!?" The people around looked at Black and White Xuanjian and asked angrily.
What Black and White Xuanjian meant was that he suspected that they would use despicable means to murder Ziyou. This was undoubtedly a great insult to them. As both the fourth princes of the Warring States Period, the quality of Lord Xinling's retainers was much higher than that of the other three. More or less, the disciples of Xinling Lord would bring a lot of slander to them, but the disciples of Lord Xinling did not. In addition, Lord Xinling's personality charm made these disciples proud to call themselves disciples of Lord Xinling, and Black and White Xuanjian's Suspicion made them feel personally insulted.
In this era, it is very simple to deal with being insulted and spread rumors. I dare to swear in public that I have never done this. At the same time, I will drag the people who spread rumors with me. Let’s see who dares not? For the sake of your own innocence, you even dare to die on the street to prove your innocence. By doing so, I will die alone to prove my innocence, and the price for you who spread the rumors will be the social death of the entire family for generations. This social death refers to the true social nature. Death, if you go to the street to buy food, no one will sell it to you.
"Everyone, please calm down. Xuan Jian is also for my safety. What's wrong with me following Mr. Zhang Er in?" Ziyou pushed open the fence door and followed Zhang Er into the room.
After Ziyou walked into the room, Zhang Er gave a big salute to Ziyou and said
"This is a gift to thank you sir for saving your child, and also thank you sir for saving us all. At the same time, I also want to make a deal with you."
"What deal?" Ziyou said, rubbing his chin.
"Sir, please protect your child. It is best to keep her away from all fights. Your Majesty has been serving the country and the people all his life, but in the end he ended up being suspicious. When you were here, your Majesty once said that if he had a child, I hope this child can stay away from everything and grow up healthy and happy," Zhang Er said.
"Then what can you give?" Ziyou asked. Since it is a transaction, you must pay well.
"Our lives are the three thousand guests that your Majesty left behind." Zhang Er bowed to Zi You and said.
Ziyou looked at Zhang Er with more approval and said
"It's really a good calculation. It seems that I underestimated Mr. Zhang, but what would Mr. Xinling think if he knew you did this?"
To be able to become a guest at the throne of Xinling, one of the heroes of the late Qin Dynasty, and a founding hero of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Er indeed has his own abilities and vision. When Ji Yan's identity was discovered, the biggest hidden danger came not from the outside world, but from Lord Xinling's disciples. The reason why they were die-hard loyalists was that they were fanatically loyal to their Lord. Lord Xinling's death was a thorn in their hearts. With Ji Yan, Lord Xinling's child, as their backbone, they will soon gather together, and they will definitely avenge Lord Xinling, and the price is that Ji Yan becomes a victim who is involved, which is undoubtedly the same as Lord Xinling's. The idea is the opposite.
But Zhang Er obviously wanted the world to know Ji Yan's identity, and let people know that Lord Xinling had not cut off his queen, and that there were descendants who offered sacrifices to him, but he was also afraid that Ji Yan would be involved in the fight, so the only way was to find a Being Ji Yan's spokesperson can not only ensure Ji Yan's safety, but also suppress these retainers, and Ziyou is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.
"I know that your death is not as simple as it seems. After the failure of the Five Kingdoms Alliance, your medical officer discovered that you had been poisoned and was in an irreversible state, so he took the initiative to be dismissed from the army. After holding the position of general, he began to indulge himself, and was hated and even poisoned and murdered by the country, monarch and brother to whom he had been loyal all his life. This made the king extremely disappointed. He was already disappointed with Wei.
I have also heard about your great ambition. Your goal is the whole world and all the people in the world. Obviously Wei is not your choice, but it doesn’t matter. Your whole life is for Wei and its people. Wei has already I am deeply disappointed, but the people of Wei are innocent. Your Majesty has not realized your wish for the people of Wei to live and work in peace and contentment. Sir, there is hope that the people of Wei will no longer suffer. Naturally, I am willing to help you, which can be regarded as repaying your respect. Kindness towards me. "
"This is just your idea. I'm afraid those people outside won't think so?"
"You don't need to worry about this. Er also has some prestige among the three thousand disciples. I have my own way to help you recover these people and let them become your disciples. For the sake of your Majesty's last wish and the people of Wei, they will be willing to do it for you." Sir, I'm here to help you." Zhang Er said.
Ziyou looked at Zhang Er and felt a little emotional in his heart. Lord Xinling was still a loyal person. At the same time, he felt a little ashamed. After all, he suddenly lost everything he had in his life. Ziyou decided to go to Xinling to pay homage to Lord Xinling. .
