"Both of you, please take a seat!"
In the main hall, Bai Yan came to his senses, stood up, bowed his hands to Yu Qi and Shen Yi, and gestured for them to take their seats.
At the wooden table nearby, the maid was already bringing wine and food to the table.
After saying that.
Seeing Yu Qi and Shen Yi return the favor, Bai Yan only then looked at the woman next to Shen Yi.
"General, this girl's name is Shen Ji, and she is my granddaughter. During this trip, I heard that I came to visit the general, so I wanted to come with me to have a look at the general."
Shen Yi looked at Bai Yan, then smiled and stroked his beard, turned around and introduced Bai Yan.
At this moment, Shen Yi didn't know that when he spoke, the identity of the 'granddaughter' in his words had already been revealed by Bai Yan.
The reason why Bai Yan is not in a hurry to speak now is because he doesn't want Zhao Qiu to tell Xu Zixiao's identity in front of Meng Tian, Wang Ben, Yu Qi, and Shen Yi.
That identity was quite famous among the nobles.
Not only when he was conquering the world, but also in this life, that identity was of great use to Bai Yan.
Therefore, Bai Yan is not in a hurry to expose Zhao Qiu in person.
"I have heard that the old gentleman is famous in the Zhao Kingdom before. Now that I see him, not only the old gentleman is immortal, but also his granddaughter Shen Ji is so stunning. Now that I see him, I am really lucky for Bai Yan!"
Bai Yan looked at Shen Yi with a smile.
Wang Ben had just told Bai Yan about Shen Yi's origins, so Bai Yan knew something about Shen Yi.
After finishing speaking, Bai Yan looked at 'Shen Ji' next to Shen Yi again.
He was not in a hurry to tell Zhao Qiu's identity.
Just look at Zhao Qiu.
Do you want to reveal his identity? Once you reveal his identity, you won't be able to finish the meal!
"Please take a seat!"
Bai Yan and Zhao Qiu looked at each other, smiled and extended their hands to indicate.
The words fell.
In the main hall, both Meng Tian and Wang Ben could not help but look from Zhao Qiu to Bai Yan.
Vaguely in the eyes of the two of them, Bai Yan seemed to be quite interested in Shen Ji.
But the two of them can understand it.
To be honest, with such a beauty, even the two of them couldn't help but glance at her. Even if she couldn't become a wife, she could still be taken into the mansion as a concubine.
Unfortunately.
The two of them also knew equally well that Shen Yi brought Shen Ji up with the obvious purpose of Bai Yan.
With such an obvious move, and the way they are looking at Bai Yan now, if the two of them fight for love, they may not get the beauty, and they will also conflict with Bai Yan.
This is a fool's errand.
Therefore, both of them couldn't help but put their minds aside.
No matter how beautiful the beauties are, Ying Zheng will reward them after they have performed meritorious service and returned to Qin. Moreover, after conquering Handan and other cities in Zhao, General Wang Jian gave them many beautiful wives and concubines. Although those beautiful wives and concubines are not as good as those in front of them. Shen Ji, but each has his own unique charm.
"Shen Ji, thank you General!"
Zhao Qiu heard Bai Yan's words and saluted to Bai Yan after Shen Yi turned around and took his seat.
At this moment, Zhao Qiu's beautiful eyes were looking at the young man behind the wooden table all day long, with complicated eyes.
How could she forget.
In the old days in Handan City, it was this face, this young man, who told her that he only had five thousand shi of grain and grain.
After getting up.
Zhao Qiu turned around and followed Shen Yi.
Qin general Bai Yan is Xu Zixiao, which Zhao Qiu never imagined, so all plans have been disrupted now. Zhao Qiu also understands that after meeting Xu Zixiao, who is Bai Yan, she can no longer escape.
The reason why Bai Yan didn't expose her was that he was confident.
Step by step.
Watching Shen Yi take a seat and Zhao Qiu take a seat at the wooden table nearby. Looking at the banquet filled with tables in front of him, Zhao Qiu felt depressed.
At the moment, Zhao Qiu's mind was full of thinking about how to escape.
No matter what.
Xu Zixiao was the Qin general Bai Yan. She had to find a way to tell Zhao Jia!
But thinking about it.
After a long time.
Whether it was outsmarting or identifying himself, Zhao Qiu couldn't think of a way to escape.
Shen Yi has been seen through, and Yu Qi, who is an old friend of Mengshi, can't help her at all once Bai Yan knows her identity.
"Wu Yun, Wu Yun! It's my fault that you are so obsessed with it and that you are searching for the antidote all over the world! Do you know that your sweetheart is not a descendant of the Xu family at all? He has not disappeared. Instead, he has always been in the eyes of the world. He is Bai Yan, the general of Qin. , a descendant of the Bai family, the chief of the Zuo concubine of Qin!"
Zhao Qiu's beautiful eyes were full of complexity. She turned her head calmly and stared blankly at the young man in the lobby who was holding a wine cup to propose a toast to Meng Tian and Shen Yi.
Bai Yan!
What a clever trick.
Zhao Qiu looked at the young man drinking, and now she had to wonder whether Bai Yan had killed Wu Yun's lover.
Those villagers all accepted bribes from Bai Yan!
In the main hall.
Bai Yan drank several drinks with Yu Qi, Wang Ben and others. After drinking, they started talking.
It was just a chat, but after Bai Yan saw Zhao Qiu pretending to be Shen Ji, he would no longer trust Shen Yi.
Looking at Shen Yi, who thought he was an old gentleman and relied on his old age to show off, Bai Yan calmly sipped the wine and listened quietly to his talk.
"Previously, Qin State destroyed Han, and now Qin State destroys Zhao. It seems that Qin State has swallowed up two countries, but behind the scenes, it is actually a waste of national power. If Qin State does not rest and recuperate for several years,"
Shen Yi put down the wine baron, held his long beard, closed his eyes and spoke softly.
in all people.
In terms of qualifications and reputation, he is indeed the number one person. In the past, in Zhao State, no matter officials or royal family members, they would treat him with courtesy.
Therefore, Shen Yi believed that no one in this mansion dared to question his words.
He was a person who could not be invited by the nobles and nobles in ordinary times. Now he came to Bai Yan's mansion to put gold on Bai Yan's face and give him Bai Yan's good fortune.
Even Shen Yi could vaguely foresee it.
After what he said, Bai Yan, the concubine of Qin Zuoshu, would probably ask him to stay in the mansion no matter what, to serve as an aide and make suggestions.
"Now that Qin has swallowed up two kingdoms, if it launches another war, the people will not be able to live in peace and self-cultivation, the government will not be able to replenish its inventory, and Qin will be in danger!"
After Shen Yi finished speaking, he opened his eyes and pretended to sigh.
Opposite Shenyi.
Wang Ben and Meng Tian knelt down behind the wooden table, sipping wine and listening carefully to Shen Yi's words. They frowned and nodded from time to time.
Different from Bai Yan.
In the eyes of Wang Ben and Meng Tian, Shen Yi is a well-known old gentleman.
The old gentleman's words must have his own unique insights. Most people want to listen to the old gentleman's words and learn something, but they haven't had the chance yet.
And what Mr. Shen Yi said now does make sense. As generals of the Qin State, they naturally know some of the situation in the Qin State.
After thirty years of drinking.
As he drank glasses of fine wine, Shen Yi began to shake a little even though he was old.
Shen Yi, who was chattering endlessly at the moment, after finishing his words and drinking, took the opportunity to look at Princess Zhao Qiu aside with his confused peripheral vision.
It wasn't as promised. In the middle of the banquet, Zhao Qiu excused himself because he felt unwell.
I just watched the young Qin general Bai Yan, and his behavior and expression were obviously deliberate. All of this was planned. All he had to do now was to open his mouth, and I'm afraid he would be sure to stay in the palace.
Why didn't Zhao Qiu speak for a long time?
Looking at Bai Yan who was also drunk in the main hall, Shen Yi thought for a moment and couldn't help but turn her head to look at Princess Zhao Qiu.
"Shen Ji, are you feeling unwell?"
Shen Yi asked softly, pretending to be concerned.
The implication of Shen Yi is that if he drinks any more, Bai Yan will become drunk, and then he will have no chance!
However, the elderly Shen Yi didn't know that his words and secret urging were like a reminder in Zhao Qiu's eyes at this moment.
Everything just now.
Shen Yi didn't notice because he was drinking.
But Zhao Qiu, who was careful and intelligent, had been watching the Qin general Bai Yan. It seemed that Bai Yan had drunk too much and was completely drunk.
But every time Bai Yan looked over secretly, Zhao Qiu could clearly see that Bai Yan's eyes were as clear as day.
"Feeling unwell?"
When Wang Bi and Meng Tian on the opposite side heard Shen Yi's words, they looked at Zhao Qiu with concern, and Yu Qi naturally looked at Zhao Qiu calmly.
Bai Yan in the lobby, who was originally drunk, looked a little more sober.
"Shen Ji is feeling unwell? Someone come! Take Shen Ji down to rest!"
Bai Yan shouted outside the lobby.
After the words fell, Bai Yan turned his head, looked at Zhao Qiu, and bowed his hands in ceremony.
"If Shen Ji feels unwell, she should stay in Bai Yan's mansion first. Bai Yan will definitely order someone to take good care of her. There is no need to worry about anything else in this mansion!"
Bai Yan pretended to be drunk, but his words were very sincere.
Zhao Qiu couldn't hear the threat in Bai Yan's words. It was telling him that she was safe in this mansion, and at the same time, it also told her not to think about leaving.
Bai Yan pretended to look at Zhao Qiu with burning eyes. Without waiting for Zhao Qiu to speak, he then looked at Shen Yi aside.
"What do you think, old gentleman?"
