"Qi Ren!!!"
In the study room, a corpse was about to be buried in the earth. When he heard his uncle's words, he stood up in fright and looked at the man in front of him with eyes wide open in fear and astonishment.
At this moment, Xi Cheng had goosebumps all over his body and couldn't believe what he just heard.
Qi people!
Qin general Bai Yan is not from Qin, but from Qi! ! !
"Qi Ren!"
Xi Cheng opened his mouth in a daze and muttered in shock, repeating in his heart the news that would shock the entire world.
Famous in Korea and the Xiongnu, Bai Yan, who led the troops to attack Zhao and was undefeated in a fight with Li Mu at a young age, was actually from Qi.
People from Qi!
"How is this possible?"
Xi Cheng shook his head, his eyes in disbelief were full of doubts, and his expression gradually frowned, giving people a ridiculous look.
No wonder Shicheng was so shocked. If the words of the man in front of him were told, not to mention Xiangxi, the Prime Minister of Wei, but also the noble clans of the Wei State, the entire Chu State, and the easternmost Qi State.
"Is this absolutely true?"
Xicheng stood in front of the wooden table, looking at the smiling man opposite the wooden table.
If he hadn't heard Bai Yan call this man his uncle today, Xi Cheng would never have come here specially, let alone what the man said just now.
"The appearance of the corpse is absolutely true, just like half a lie, Huai, he will not die a good death!"
The uncle chuckled lightly, showing a flattering look on his face, and smiled at the corpse, his tone full of humility.
However, the uncle is also playing a trick here, that is, he will never tell the corpse in front of him or where his nephew lives. The uncle knows that after he appears, the news about his nephew Qi will not be kept secret for long. Even if he tells the corpse, The nephew would not really take his anger out on him.
But based on my nephew's character, it would be different if he told Brother Zhong's address.
My nephew had mentioned before that he had offended other nobles in Yanmen.
The uncle is not stupid. He will have to rely on his nephew in the future, so how could he do something to make his nephew angry.
"Where does that family live?"
Xi Cheng's breathing was a little disordered, his eyes were full of shock, and he looked straight at Zihuai in a daze and asked.
Once he learned Bai Yan's complete origin, Xi Cheng had already thought about it and immediately told his grandson about it after Sun Eryan returned. After all, Sun Eryan had a relationship with Bai Yan. With the contact during this period, Xi Cheng It is obvious that Qin General Bai Yan is very different from the rumors. He may even be completely different from the rumors in terms of character.
Regardless of his identity, even Xicheng couldn't help but admire that Qin General Bai Yan was not only humble, but also kind-hearted and kind-hearted in his treatment of others. Although he never said a kind word to Bai Yan, privately, he was very kind in his heart. I can't help but praise my old friend Tian Jin's vision.
Xicheng is clear.
If other people knew about this, they might not be able to leave Wei State alive. Only Yan'er, even if Bai Yan knew clearly, he would not actually kill Yan'er.
Having known countless people throughout his life, Xicheng can still guarantee this.
"Ha~! Corpse, please forgive me for this, Huai can't, please tell me!"
Zihuai cupped his hands and shook his head, looking at the corpse with a hint of apology.
At this moment, looking at the shocked and curious expression of the corpse, the uncle felt so happy. Looking at the corpse that he had admired in his heart for many years, not only did he meet and talk in person, but the corpse even asked for help from him.
When the uncle thought of this, he felt so beautiful that his whole body trembled, and the vanity in his heart felt so satisfying.
in the room.
Shi Chen looked at the uncle's silent expression, thought for a few moments, and suddenly smiled. Then under the uncle's gaze, he glanced around and outside the door. When he looked at the uncle again, he spoke very softly.
"When I came here just now, I saw you looking gloomy and drinking alone. I didn't make any guesses, so I made a rash guess."
When Xicheng said this, he looked at Zihuai with interest.
"Do you want to go to Wei as an envoy?"
Xi Cheng paused and asked in a low voice, his tone full of determination.
Xichen heard this on the way here just now. All the soldiers in the mansion were coming and going in a hurry, obviously preparing to leave for Daliang. But now the channel leading to Daliang has been completed, and the man in front of him is Bai Yan's uncle. At this time He looks unhappy, which means he is obviously unhappy.
After thinking about it, Xicheng immediately guessed that it must be the envoy's problem.
If his guess was correct, the man in front of him must have wanted to go to Daliang as an envoy and take this opportunity to make a name for himself and become an official. Based on Xi Cheng's understanding of Bai Yan, it was absolutely impossible for him to show favoritism in such an important matter.
"Ah~!"
When the uncle heard what Xi Cheng said, he looked at Xi Cheng with wide eyes and a confused expression, full of doubts.
Looking back on the conversation just now, he clearly didn't say a word, let alone mentioned his nephew. How did he know the corpse?
Could it be that the corpse picture has bribed the nephew's confidants?
Thinking of this possibility, the uncle immediately put away his smile and looked at Xicheng warily.
"Hehehe!"
When Xicheng saw his uncle's appearance, he had already guessed it. Then before the uncle could speak, Xicheng stroked his long beard and looked at his uncle.
"Xicheng even boldly said that General Bai Yan is not willing to let you go as an envoy to Wei. What's the reason?"
Xicheng immediately smiled and said with determination: "It must be the diplomatic relationship between the two countries. There is no high-ranking official or generous salary, and it is difficult for everyone to say it. Secondly, before you were neither famous nor a famous person, General Bai Yan must There are concerns.”
After Xi Cheng finished speaking, he turned his body sideways and stroked his long beard.
Although the uncle didn't speak, his slightly opened mouth and the dazed expression on his face told Xi Cheng that he had already guessed everything, and everything he said was correct.
While the uncle was in a daze, Xi Cheng sighed.
"Firstly, I have no reputation, secondly, I have no background, and thirdly, I was a prisoner in the past. Once this opportunity passes, even if I have General Bai Yan's connection, I will probably not forget it when I become an official in the future. I will spend my whole life doing nothing, isn't it? What a pity~!"
Xicheng told.
And every word Xi Cheng said made the uncle's expression change again and again.
Looking at the corpse, the uncle suddenly felt that the appearance of the old corpse became unfathomable in his eyes.
And when he thought about the corpse, he gradually became nervous from the daze at the beginning, and the uncle's eyes were filled with deep reluctance.
Sudden.
The uncle thought of something, and when he looked at the corpse in front of him, his eyes lit up.
yes! The old man in front of me is the Prime Minister of Wei State, if so.
"Please also ask the corpse to help me! I will definitely be grateful to the corpse in the future, and I will never forget the kindness of the corpse throughout my life!"
The uncle suddenly became excited and quickly bowed his hands in front of the corpse.
Thinking that Xi Cheng was the Prime Minister of the Wei State, the uncle then remembered that if Xi Xiang was willing to help him, then the reasons why his nephew had not allowed him to go would disappear.
Uncle is not stupid.
Looking at the silent corpse in front of him, and recalling the corpse's inquiry just now, the uncle's eyes were full of struggle, and he finally thought that he only had this chance. If he missed it, it would be like what the corpse said, and there would never be a second chance.
"If the corpse helps me become an envoy of the Qin State, he will inform me immediately after I return."
The uncle's eyes struggled for a moment, but in the end desire defeated his reason. As long as he could go on a mission to the Wei State, the uncle no longer cared about so much. As long as he made meritorious service afterwards, his nephew would be angry. At worst, he would go back to Qi State in person and let his younger brother tell him. The good words are done, and the blood relatives are here, so the nephew will not really ignore him.
"Corpse?"
The uncle suddenly saw Xi Cheng shaking his head with his eyes closed, fearing that Xi Cheng would refuse, he quickly knelt down.
"This is my seal. If I help you become the envoy of the State of Qin, you need to go to Daliang and clearly inform my grandson Shiyan about the origin of General Bai Yan."
Xichen looked at his uncle who was kneeling on the ground and had lost his mind. He smiled and took out his photo seal from the sleeve pocket of his large official uniform. As long as he had the photo seal, the man in front of him was more suitable than anyone else. If word spreads about Daliang City, this man will also become famous.
And in this way, Xicheng is not worried that Xiyan will be stopped by Bai Yan.
As for whether the man in front of him would agree, Xi Cheng's old eyes looked at the man kneeling on the ground, not worried at all that the man would refuse.
"good!"
The uncle looked in a daze, looking left and right. After thinking for a few moments, his Adam's apple moved and he quickly raised his head to look at the corpse.
As long as he can be sent as an envoy to Wei State and become famous and make meritorious service, he doesn't care about anything.
In the study room.
Xi Cheng showed a smile like an old fox, looked at the uncle who had already agreed, and helped him up in a hurry, and asked the uncle what happened. Before letting the uncle go to Daliang, Xi Cheng knew that this matter must not be allowed to Bai Bai. Yan knows.
It is necessary to take action from Bai Yan's other envoys to Daliang.
Half an hour later, looking at the grateful uncle, he carefully took the photo seal and then hurriedly said goodbye.
Xicheng knelt down behind the wooden seat and looked at the quiet room with a solemn smile. Now the beam was about to be flooded. There was no other way. Wei would be destroyed in a short time. Xiangyin was no longer important at this moment.
Compared with Xiangyin, Xicheng was more concerned about Bai Yan's affairs.
Qin general Bai Yan is actually from Qi! ! !
Xi Cheng shook his head, with a dazed look on his face. Xi Cheng wanted to ask if King Qi knew about this matter, and whether Tian Ding knew about this matter!
No wonder Yan'er said before that Bai Yan was the beloved disciple of his old friend Tian Jin. He still didn't understand why Bai Yan, a descendant of the Bai family and a native of Qin, had a master-disciple relationship with Tian Jin of Qi.
turn out to be.
Bai Yan is from Qi!
"Eh~!"
Xi Cheng frowned, looked at the wooden table full of leftovers, and stood up slowly. After learning that Bai Yan was from Qi, Xi Cheng decided to see Bai Yan again. This time, Xi Cheng thought of Bai Yan, and then There is no resentment as before.
However, we still have to wait until Bai Yan's 'uncle' goes to Daliang before he can see Bai Yan!
"I'm afraid everyone in this world will be dumbfounded!"
Xi Cheng walked towards the door, already anticipating how shocking the whole world would be if the news that Bai Yan was Qi Ren spread.
Qi State Linzi.
In the Tian Mansion, the three brothers Tian Cong, Tian Sui, and Tian Xian were talking with their father in the study. The Qin State had sent a large army to Wei, preparing to destroy the Wei State. This was not a good thing for the Qi State.
Now, looking at their father, the three brothers saw for the first time that their father's expression was so solemn.
"Father, the king has been hesitant for a long time. Relying on the 50,000 troops and horses commanded by Brother Zhong to reach the Qi-Wei border alone may not be helpful at all and cannot pose a threat to Bai Yan."
Tian Cong said softly, his eyes full of anxiety.
"Bai Yannai became famous for leading troops in battles. He is far more sensitive to battlefield situations than ordinary people. He was like this in Gao Nu in Shangjun, he was like this in his fight with Li Mu, and he was like this in the battle of Jingxing. Also, in the previous battle in Yunzhong, even the Xiongnu were like this. Neither the Zhao clan nor the nobles expected that Bai Yan would be in Yanmen without knowing when!"
When Tian Cong said this, he looked at his father, Tian Cong and Tian Xian calmly.
Among all people, he, like his younger brother Tian Xian, did not agree with his younger brother Tian Sui to lead troops to the Qi-Wei border. This was simply because Tian Sui's troops only had 50,000 soldiers and horses. Tian Cong knew more than Bai Yanyuan. Not the other generals, Bai Yannai led the troops to kill him with one sword and one sword. Compared with the combat experience, he far surpassed his younger brother Tian Sui.
Think of this.
Tian Cong looked at his father and sighed helplessly.
"Father, since Bai Yan led the Qin army to attack Wei, there is no way he did not prevent Qi from sending troops!"
After Tian Cong finished speaking, he remembered the Bai Yan he had seen in Yanmen before. Bai Yan's appearance came to mind, and Tian Cong couldn't help but feel worried.
After Tian Cong finished speaking, Tian Xian also looked at his father at this time.
"Indeed, what my brother said makes sense. If Bai Yan only leads an army of 150,000 to attack Daliang of Wei, and half a year later, Brother Zhong leads an army of 50,000 to Daliang, and the Chu State sends troops, it will be enough for Bai Yan to be unable to destroy Wei. However, now that Bai Yan has ordered people to dig channels and prepare to flood the beams, Brother Zhong rushes to send troops. It is really unwise! There are also rumors that Bai Yan spent countless money and all his family wealth to feast on meat every day in the Qin army, so Now there is no such thing as a tired soldier among the Qin soldiers under Bai Yan’s command!”
After some persuasion, Tian Xian inadvertently looked towards the study, where the little girl Feiyan was looking at the medical skills not far away.
That look was quite helpless.
Since returning to Qi State, no matter how he asked, made conditions, or even ordered people to investigate, there was no trace. Everything seemed to be as known by his father and two elder brothers. Bai Yan and his younger sister, in total, I've only seen it twice.
Once I went to Yanmen with my brother, and another time I went to Xianyang with my father.
It seemed that every time he was either under his father's nose or next to his brother, everything was fine.
However, just like this, the more Tian Xian suspected that things were definitely not that simple, there must be something else that neither his brother nor his father knew about.
Thinking that Bai Yan was in Wei State, commanding Qin's army, and preparing to attack Wei State, Tian Xian couldn't help but sigh. When he looked at his little sister, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Bai Yan is really leading the army. Without giving him any chance, no one dared to stop him from destroying Wei.
Behind wooden table.
Tian Feiyan naturally saw the look in his brother Tian Xian's eyes. After taking a look at his brother, he pretended not to notice and continued to read the medical book.
"But if we don't send troops to relieve the siege of Wei State, I'm afraid that Wei State will be destroyed by Bai Yan's troops in a short time!"
After listening to Tian Xian's words, Tian Sui was full of tangles in his heart and gradually became irritable.
Among the three brothers, Tian Xian seems to be bohemian, but his thoughts are extremely delicate. From a young age, Tian Xian's judgment on things is basically never wrong. However, seeing the Wei Kingdom being destroyed by Bai Yan, this This is something Qi never wants to see.
"Once Wei is destroyed by Qin, no one knows whether Qi will be next!"
Tian Sui said, and then looked at his father: "Father, if you don't make a decision, I'm afraid there will be no chance to save Wei!"
Tian Sui thought about the news he had received from the Wei State today. Outside Daliang City, under Bai Yan's methods, the Qin State was digging ditches at a speed far beyond everyone's imagination. He was afraid it would be too late to hesitate any longer.
"Xian'er? Was the person who saved you in Yingchuan really Bai Yan?"
In the eyes of his three sons, Tian Ding did not rush to answer the second son's words, but looked at the youngest son Tian Xian.
Yesterday, if he had not gone to see his daughter Tian Feiyan and wanted to ask her about the old gentleman, and happened to hear the words of Tian Xian and Feiyan, Tian Ding would not have expected that the person who saved Tian Xian was actually Bai Yan!
"yes!"
When Tian Xian heard his father mention this matter again, he was silent for two seconds and nodded. Then he looked at his younger sister Tian Feiyan and gave her a helpless look.
Seeing this, Tian Ding looked towards his beloved daughter not far away, looking at the bamboo slips.
Tian Cong and Tian Sui also looked at their younger sister curiously. They were both a little disbelieving when they heard the news.
That Bai Yan actually went into danger himself to save Tian Xian!
That was Qin General Bai Yan. They couldn't even think of a reason why Qin General Bai Yan could save Tian Xian for his little sister.
"Yan'er, you still don't want to tell your father?"
When Tian Ding saw his beloved daughter's pretty face pretending not to know what to do, he really didn't know what to do. What happened to his beloved daughter and Bai Yan in Yanmen and on the way to Xianyang? Bai Yan is so interested in Yan'er.
From yesterday to now, Tian Ding not only recalled the original events once, but also interrogated every maid and servant who went with him. Except when they were in Yanmen, Bai Yan and Yan'er were alone in the pavilion. At other times, the two of them had no relationship at all. Opportunity to meet.
In the pavilion, all the maids and servants saw with their own eyes that Bai Yan was not disrespectful to Yan'er. Why would Bai Yan go to save Xian'er for Yan'er!
"Father, how did Yan'er know! If it hadn't been for what my brother said, Yan'er wouldn't have known about it. My brother was actually saved by Bai Yan."
Under Tian Feiyan's exquisite uniform, she held the bamboo slips in her delicate white hands and shook her head with a simple expression. When her beautiful eyes looked at her brother Tian Xian, she glared angrily.
However, when he learned about his brother, Tian Feiyan couldn't help but think of that young man in his mind.
I recall that in Yanmen, Luoyin, Xianyang, and a few years ago, I watched the young man wearing commoners secretly hiding money under a tree, and his expression of astonishment when he was discovered.
"Yan'er."
His father's voice brought Tian Feiyan back to his thoughts. Looking at his father who seemed to not give up until he asked, Tian Feiyan continued to shake his head.
"Father, Yan'er doesn't know either. Who knows why he went to save his brother!"
Tian Feiyan pretended to look at her father pitifully, and when she said the last sentence, when she looked at her brother Tian Xian, her tone was quite angry, as if it was because of her brother Tian Xian that she kept being asked questions.
When Tian Xian saw this, he couldn't laugh or cry!
"Yan'er!"
"Alas~!"
Tian Cong and Tian Sui frowned slightly as they looked at their little sister. The retinue who accompanied the little sister to Yanmen and Xianyang had all been interrogated by their father, but it seemed that things were really what they knew.
However, they really didn't understand why Bai Yan, who had a title, a fiefdom in the Qin State, and was highly trusted by Ying Zheng, would be put in danger because of his little sister.
What on earth is the little sister hiding from them?
