Qin Gong

Chapter 185 What?Can't find anyone?

In Lu's study.

It was getting late, Lu Qi waited anxiously, walking back and forth from time to time.

Seeing the passing of half an hour and a half, Lu Qi couldn't sit still at all, and kept coming to the door impatiently, looking outside.

When the last group of panting servants come back, report the results.

"did not find?"

Lu Qi looked at Lu You in bewilderment. If it hadn't been for the deal, Lu Qi even wondered if Lu You and these servants were teasing him.

How could a living person not be found.

Yuzhong City is very big, but there are only so many inns and post stations that can live in people, and this person has been sent out, and so much money has been spent, but there is no one to be found?

Not to mention, Zhong Yan brought a woman with him, and he would never live with other Qin officials.

"I have asked everywhere in Yamen, but there is nothing!"

The servant said to Lu Qi while panting.

At this point, not to mention Lu Qi, even Lu You is also dumbfounded at the moment, obviously he just met Zhong Yan today, why can't he find him at night.

All the servants in the mansion have been sent out, and he even found an excuse to go to Lu Sheng to take a look, but it turned out that he was not there.

"Could it be that Zhongyan was worried that Lu Sheng would go back on his word and returned to Gaonu overnight?"

Lu You frowned, turned to look at Lu Qi, and secretly guessed.

"Absolutely impossible!"

Lu Qi denied that although he didn't understand why Zhong Yan would accept Master Xu as a gift from Lu Sheng, based on his previous contact, Zhong Yan was definitely not as bad as Lu You said.

Lu Qi dared to guarantee this with his life.

"You have met Zhong Yan's servants in the mansion, and they will take turns guarding the city gate tomorrow. In addition, Lu Sheng must not let Lu Sheng know about this."

Lu Qi thought for a while, then turned his head and said to Lu You.

Now that Zhongyan has decided to come to Yuzhong, no matter where Zhongyan is now, he has to go back to Gaonu.

As long as the servants guard the city gate in the direction of Gao Nu, they will naturally find Zhong Yan.

Before that, he hadn't said anything about General Bai's help, but when he came to Shangjun, he had to thank General Bai face to face for whatever he said.

"it is good!"

Lu You nodded slightly when he heard Lu Qi's words.

Lu You also felt that Lu Qi's attention was indeed good.

In Yuzhong City, in the county guard's mansion.

Because the new county governor was Feng Quji, the banquet was full of county governors from various cities.

The entire banquet started at sunset and ended at Hai hour in the middle of the night. Except for a few people, most of the officials were so drunk that they passed out.

Even Hu Jin and Li Pingyan were carried into the guest room by servants of the mansion to rest, unable to go back to their mansion.

At this banquet, apart from Feng Quji, Hu Jin and Li Pingyan were the ones who were frequently toasted.

"General Bai, I will definitely come to Yuzhong more often in the future~!"

Muttering a word, Li Pingyan vomited countless times, and when she was being helped away by the maid in a daze, she was still thinking about asking Bai Yan to come and walk around in Yuzhong.

While dealing with Li Pingyan, Bai Yan asked the maid to be more careful.

Bai Yan is no stranger to Li Shi.

Before that, Hu Jin, and Bai Yu back then, had told him everything about Mrs. Li in detail.

Among the Li family, Li Pingyan is the censor of Shangjun, his younger brother Li Yao is a general, his father Li Chong is the governor of Longxi, and his ancestor Li Tan was the official censor of Qin when he was alive.

Li Pingyan is also Li Xin's uncle. Li Pingyan's eldest son Li Lu is an official in other counties of Qin State, and his second son Li Liang is a businessman.

This is just Li Pingyan's relationship in Qin.

in Zhao State.

Li Mu's father, Li Ji, and Li Pingyan's father, Li Chong, are brothers. Although Li Ji has resigned, his contacts in Zhao are still beyond the reach of other gentry.

The reason why Li Ji resigned was not in the past. Many people speculated that it was because Li Mu was named Lord Wu'an.

To sum up, the two veins of Li Bian and Li Zhao, who were brothers with Li Chong, have not been counted.

This is Mrs. Lee.

So now facing Li Pingyan's intention of getting closer, Bai Yan did not refuse, because Hu Jin once said that it is best to be friends, if you don't like it, you can keep less contact, but you must not be hostile.

No matter how great a person's ability is, it is unwise to turn against such a large gentry for no reason.

Just like Hu Jin said, no one knows whether relatives, friends or family members will ask Li for a convenient trip that day.

Inside the main hall.

"Drink, Lord Ji!"

"Respect~ General, hey, where are you from?"

Bai Yan rubbed his forehead, watching a drunken official in the main hall being carried down to rest by the servants of the mansion.

One drunk, one hundred ugly!

Who would have thought that all the city guards who looked serious, and some of them had been on the battlefield, would show their ugly faces after getting drunk.

Bai Yan looked at the leftovers in the wine bottles, and ignored those officials. They were all officials in the same dynasty, so Bai Yan would not say that he looked down on anyone.

Accompanied by two maids who came to Bai Yan's side, ready to help Bai Yan down to rest, Bai Yan waved his hands.

"Need not!"

Apart from headaches, Bai Yan's immunity to alcohol is much higher than the average person's. Although he drank a bit outrageously this time and was slightly drunk, but fortunately, he recovered faster than the average person.

Rejecting the maid's support, Bai Yan took advantage of the table and slowly got up.

Come outside the yard.

Bai Yan looked at the bright moon in the night sky, and then, accompanied by the maid, walked towards the outside of the mansion.

Outside the gate of the mansion.

Ye had already returned, and when he saw Bai Yan coming out, he hurried forward.

"General!"

While Ye was speaking, Huai at the side handed Bai Yan's sword to Bai Yan.

Bai Yan took Qin Jian and looked at Ye.

"It's getting late, go back to the Commandant's Mansion first!"

Bai Yan said.

The matter of that soldier today has been investigated almost, Bai Yan has asked Ye to appease the soldier, it won't take long for the soldier to be innocent.

walk down the street.

Ye, Huai, and Peck followed Bai Yan, and Peck held a candle in his hand.

Unlike the last time, this time I came to Yuzhong City, not in such a hurry as last time, and at this time in Yuzhong City, there are nobles and scholars from other places, so even late at night, I can still see you. People come and go.

The banquet at the prefect's mansion will take at least two or three days.

When he was in Qi State, Bai Yan always thought that in Qin State, with Qin Law, everything is very strict.

It wasn't until he came to Qin that Bai Yan realized that the strictness was true, but for the powerful and powerful people in Qin, they still lived an extremely nourishing life, which was very different from the people at the bottom.

Although Hu Jin didn't say it clearly, Bai Yan's eyes are not blind today, and he hasn't seen anything yet, and he will still accept gifts that should be accepted.

"Guest, let's drink some more!"

"Gentleman~! Good or bad!"

On the street, when Bai Yan passed the restaurant, he saw that even though it was late at night, the restaurant was still very lively.

Bai Yan listened to the sound of a woman laughing and complaining from the restaurant, and turned her head to look at Ye, Huai, and Peck.

"You haven't rested these days, so go in and relax! The county captain's mansion is in front of you, I can just go back by myself!"

Bai Yan took out two strings of money from his clothes and handed them to Ye.

Ye originally wanted to refuse, but looking at Bai Yan's eyes, he finally looked at Huai and Peck, and found that the two of them were as excited as him.

Thinking that the general's swordsmanship is stronger than the three of them, thinking that the county captain's mansion is ahead, and thinking that there is a fair and beautiful woman waiting for the general in the mansion.

Looking at the dark street, listening to the laughter of a woman next to him, Ye swallowed his saliva, and finally decided to 'follow his own heart'.

"General, you don't need that much!"

Ye said, his face flushed a little.

The arms and pecks on the side nodded in agreement.

The three of them all knew that the general was kind to them, but the money was a bit too much, even if they ordered ten girls, it was more than enough, and there was no way they could spend it all.

"Going to this kind of place is just for fun, the more money the better, remember, when you leave, give the girl some money!"

Bai Yan smiled, reached out to take the candle lamp from Peck's hand, turned around and walked towards the county captain's mansion.

When Shiye and others followed him, there were six of them, including Ye.

Today, only three remain.

After the battle in the canyon, because there was no place to live, Ye, Huai, and Peck followed him every step of the way even though they were wounded.

Now they are rushing to Yuzhong City again.

Before going back, Bai Yan also wanted to relax for the three of them.

"Thank you, General!"

"Go, enter the restaurant!"

The excited laughter of the three came from behind, the corners of Bai Yan's mouth rose, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

　"The eldest son of Si is guarded by Sanchuan. All the men are respected by the princess of Qin, and the women are married to the princes of Qin. Li You, the guard of Sanchuan, returned to Xianyang. Li Si bought wine at home. All the officials lived in front of him, and there were thousands of chariots in the court. .”
