Qin Gong

Chapter 263 Operation of Silence, Feng Wen's Request, Yao Jia's Doubt (5K)

Yingchuan County.

In the dark night, along with the restaurants in the city, laughter and laughter continued.

After late at night, several well-dressed figures left the restaurant, said goodbye with a smile, and got into their own carriages.

In the dark of night.

One of the carriages was driving on the street when arrows shot out from nowhere. The groom driving the carriage and the two servants holding candle lamps were hit by the arrows in an instant, leaning against the carriage, and slowly fell down.

Such movements naturally startled the people in the carriage.

Just as the middle-aged man in the carriage opened the curtain, he saw seven or eight men in black looking at him with sharp knives in the next second.

"Who are you waiting for? I am the head of Jiuli Pavilion!"

The middle-aged man instinctively said a word.

I thought that after finishing speaking, these men in black would show fear on their faces. After all, he is an official of the Qin State, and killing an official of the Qin State is a felony.

However, when he saw that these men in black didn't have any expressions, the man had a vague premonition.

really.

The next moment, a man suddenly raised his bow and pulled the trigger at him without hesitation.

In the horrified eyes of the middle-aged man.

huh~!

Accompanied by a muffled hum.

Under the watchful eyes of several men in black, the middle-aged man was shot between the eyebrows by an arrow and fell directly onto the carriage.

With the lowering of the car curtain, it was blocked by the bleeding corpse.

Several night men turned around and left.

the other side.

At the pass of Xianyuan Pass, beside the bonfire, a man was patrolling with a sword in his hand and wearing armor. He looked at the twenty or so Qin officials around him and looked forward.

And right now.

The man suddenly felt some discomfort in his chest, but as a general, he didn't care at first.

However, not long after, the original discomfort suddenly turned into severe pain, which made his cheeks full of pain.

The general turned around and was about to call the other soldiers over, but before he could speak, he knelt on the ground slowly, foaming at the mouth.

until this time.

He suddenly remembered that an hour ago, his colleagues came to him with money and food.

Think of the gold I hid in my room.

"grown ups!"

"grown ups!!"

After falling down, the general continued to twitch, and the voice in his ears gradually became blurred.

In no time.

The general of the Qin army lay motionless on the ground, lost his breath, and turned into a corpse.

Yingchuan County.

When the morning rose, a series of battle reports spread to the Gongcheng. When Gongcheng City Guard Pan Si and Chengwei Du Ying saw several officials dead, they hurriedly led the soldiers to investigate.

The people caught in the end were either vendettas or all came from the Zhao country.

Two days later.

Cheng Gao.

In the mansion of the city guard Gou Ze, Bai Yan knelt and sat in the gazebo.

"My lord, this is a secret letter from Gongcheng!"

A man quietly came to Gouze's side, and handed a bamboo slip to Gouze.

After Gou Ze took it, he let the man go down and handed the bamboo slips to Bai Yan.

compared to a year ago.

Now, Gou Ze has been secretly giving Bai Yan information, so now he and Bai Yan are no longer unfamiliar with each other.

However, after becoming an official of the Qin State, Gou Ze not only did not lose weight, but gained a lot of weight. Obviously, during this year, many people tried their best to curry favor with Gou Ze.

"My lord! There is a merchant surnamed Feng outside the mansion, please see your lord!"

A servant guarding the gate hurriedly came to Gou Ze, knelt on the ground and reported.

"Let him in!"

Gou Ze ordered.

At this time, Bai Yan had finished reading the bamboo slips, and felt much more at ease.

He had asked someone to send the letter to Xianyang and hand it over to Tai Jing. As for the officials who dealt with it, they were all taken over by someone arranged with Lu Qi at the end. Among them, he specially planted the poisoned person to Zhao Guo.

Even if in the future, Tai Jing accidentally went to Zhao country and was bribed, he would only know that a man from Xu Zixiao was assassinated and poisoned in Handan of Zhao country.

Right now, both Zhao Guo and Yingchuan County are in chaos.

At that time, no matter whether it is Young Master Jia or Tai Jing, they will not be suspicious.

After a while.

The figure of Feng Wen, the city guard of Wanfeng City, came to the gazebo under the leadership of his servants.

Bai Yan and Gou stood up.

After the servant left, the three bowed their hands to each other.

"General Bai, Master Gou!"

Feng Wen saluted.

After Bai Yan and Gou Ze returned the salute, the three of them sat in the gazebo.

"Master Feng wants to leave Yingchuan?"

Bai Yan looked at Feng Wen, and after knowing that he was coming to Yingchuan County, Feng Wen sent a letter, bluntly saying that he wanted to leave Yingchuan.

Gou Ze also looked at Feng Wen, he didn't understand why Feng Wen left Yingchuan.

Although the Feng family behind Feng Wen is not comparable to the extremely noble Feng family in Qin State, the contacts and foundation behind Feng Wen have been in Wanfeng City for several generations, which should not be underestimated.

If you leave today and want to come back in the future, I am afraid that there will be very few connections and foundations left.

This is totally worth the candle!
"Yes! Now there is chaos in Yingchuan County, Feng Wen has no intention of participating in it, he just wants to be wise and protect himself."

When Feng Wen saw Bai Yan asking, his eyes were full of helplessness, but also a little free and easy.

When Bai Yan came, he was still sober, he was able to get Bai Yan's help, and he had the credit of surrendering to Xiancheng. However, it was less than a year ago, and the credit of the past has now become like a knife, making him sleepless.

"General, although Feng Wen is in Wanfeng and has little contact with the gentry, he knows that some gentry have already regarded Feng Wen as a thief, and they want to get rid of them quickly."

Feng Wen explained, then turned to look at Gou Ze: "Although it is hidden, Master Gou must have heard about it!"

Inside the gazebo.

Gou Ze met Feng Wen's gaze and nodded.

"Someone did mention this matter. At first Gou Ze thought it was just some villains."

After Gou Ze finished speaking, he looked at Bai Yan.

In terms of contacts, Gou was not as well-informed as Feng Wen's news, so he always thought that it was just the words of some rangers and disciples.

At this time, Gou Ze also roughly understood why Feng Wenhui wanted to leave Yingchuan. This was when there were signs of disaster just now, and he decisively chose to cut off his arms to survive.

"General Bai, Feng Wen only wants to live a peaceful life with his wife and children, and I hope General Bai can help!"

In front of the wooden table, Feng Wen raised his hands and saluted Bai Yan.

In the past, Feng Wen surrendered to Bai Yan because he had a reason and South Korea survived Qin's attack, but now that he has become Bai Yan's person, he hopes that Bai Yan can help him.

Although Feng Wen is also clear.

Now that Yingchuan County is in chaos, the transfer is not easy, but right now, Bai Yan is the only person who can help him.

"Master Feng, don't worry, Bai Yan will try his best to make arrangements for Master Feng!"

Bai Yan looked at Feng Wenjili, raised his hand and said.

In Yingchuan County, among all his dark chess, only Feng Wen is a half-clear chess player, and he is in a very dangerous situation.

It is useless for Feng Wen to stay in Yingchuan County now, so it is better to find a way, through the operation of the Bai family, to see if Feng Wen can be transferred to Ba or Shu.

Wait for Feng Wen to develop secretly in Bashu.

In cooperation with the original he spent a lot of money to let those seriously injured and disabled soldiers go home.

Even though he is thousands of miles away from Bashu, he can still know the news of Bashu clearly.

"Thank you General Bai!"

Seeing that Bai Yan agreed to help, Feng Wen heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at Bai Yan gratefully.

"Thank you for that?"

Bai Yan laughed.

Feng Wen looked at Bai Yan and understood Bai Yan's meaning, so he stopped talking and raised his hands gratefully.

Bai Yan also raised his hand in return.

An hour later.

Feng Wen, who came here in disguise, didn't dare to stay for long, and left in a hurry after taking his leave.

Bai Yan and Gouze were in the gazebo, watching Feng Wen's leaving figure.

"Master Gou should be more careful in the future, Yingchuan County will become more and more uneasy."

Bai Yan turned his head to look at Gou Ze.

Gou smiled when he heard Bai Yan's words.

"General, don't worry. In the eyes of others, I am different from Feng Wen. Back then, the general led the Qin army into the city, and Gou Ze had to surrender. It wasn't Gou Ze who surrendered on his own initiative. Therefore, as long as the general protects Gou Ze, Gou Ze will be able to do so." All right."

Gou Ze looked at Bai Yan, explained with a smile, and took the opportunity to express his position.

In Gou Ze's eyes, what he was most worried about was not Yingchuan. On the contrary, what worried him was actually Xianyang, the state of Qin in the distance.

If Bai Yan hadn't sent a letter before, he would never have thought that King Qin Yingzheng would be so decisive in Xianyang.

So for Gou Ze, as long as nothing happened to Bai Yan.

He is safe here.

"As long as Mr. Gou is safe! Bai Yan promised Mr. Gou that as long as Mr. Gou needs it, Bai Yan will definitely not shirk it. In the future, Bai Yan will also help Mr. Gou, and enjoy the glory and wealth!"

When Bai Yan heard Gou Ze's words, he nodded and smiled at Gou Ze, clapping his hands in salute.

As for Gou Ze's intention to be close, Bai Yan knew clearly a year ago, so Bai Yan also assured Gou Ze that in the future, he would help Gou Ze to obtain prosperity and wealth throughout his life.

Bai Yan knew what Gou Ze was like.

Nothing is more seductive than speaking the truth.

"Thank you, General Bai! With General Bai's words, if General Bai needs anything in the future, he will die if he hooks him!"

Gou Ze also excitedly saluted Bai Yan.

Don't underestimate Bai Yan's words, Gouze has waited for a full year for this sentence, a year ago, when Bai Yan was not a husband, he made up his mind to put his future on Bai Yan who was born in the Bai family.

Gou Ze knew that his background was not as good as Feng Wen's, that is, the city guard had spent a lot of money to get it, and he didn't have the connections of clansman like Feng Wen.

After meeting Bai Yan, Gou Ze understood that Bai Yan was his chance, and he has been waiting for this sentence ever since.

Now that he finally got this promise, how could he not be excited!
At this time, Feng Nian had also come over and said that the carriage was ready.

"Lord Gou, then Bai Yan will leave Chenggao too, and come visit me later!"

Bai Yan turned around, cupped his hands towards Gou Ze and said.

The matter has been dealt with, and now he will return to Yanyu as soon as possible.

"If you hook it, you will send off General Bai, please!"

Gou Ze hurriedly returned the gift, knowing that Bai Yan couldn't stay for long, so he didn't say anything to persuade him to stay, but sent Bai Yan to leave in person.

Because he was worried about being seen by others, Gou Ze did not go outside the mansion, but waited inside the mansion until the servants reported that the carriage had left, then Gou Ze nodded.

Go back to the gazebo again.

Gou Ze felt so flattered.

The promise Bai Yan gave him just now was like a piece of honey, making him intoxicated.

"Fortunately, I didn't collude with those gentry!"

Check it out with emotion.

Seeing the chaos in Yingchuan County a few months ago, it would be a lie to say that there was no hesitation, but it is good to think that Bai Yan is a child of the Bai family, and the person standing behind him is the Bai family, and Bai Yan is now a general.

Gou Ze thought for a moment, and finally did not betray Bai Yan.

If he hadn't stabilized his mind and betrayed Bai Yan back then, maybe the situation would be different now.

"My lord! The general is gone?"

At this time, I heard the voice of my concubine.

Gou turned around and smiled.

When the concubine stepped forward, Gou Ze put his arms around his concubine.

"For these two days, you were asked to go to General Bai's room. Before General Bai let you go back to the room, didn't he touch you?"

Gou smiled and looked at his concubine.

Ever since Bai Yan came, Gou Ze, who was unprepared, thought about it and felt that in Chenggao now, no matter if it was a restaurant or other women, he could not compare to his concubine.

In the end, Gou Ze thought about it, and let his concubine go to Bai Yan's room.

After all, if Bai Yan likes it, it can be considered as what he likes. In the future, as long as he has status and wealth, he is not afraid of not having a woman.

"Fortunately, General Bai is an upright man. Seeing that my concubine was only thinking of my lord, he didn't touch my concubine!"

The concubine explained to Gou Ze, leaning on Gou Ze's arms, looking at Gou Ze fawningly.

"is it?"

When Gou Ze heard what the concubine said, his eyes were full of smiles, and he didn't believe his concubine at all.

Although Bai Yan's appearance is not as good as those handsome men, he can only be considered handsome, but Bai Yan is not only young, but more importantly, his birth and abilities are far above ordinary people.

He didn't believe that his concubine wasn't tempted.

"My lord, who sent those bamboo slips?"

The concubine suddenly changed the topic and looked at the bamboo slips on another wooden table in the distance.

Gou felt that the concubine was guilty, but what the concubine said also made him notice that Bai Yan seemed to have forgotten to take the scroll of bamboo slips away.

"Go get it!"

If you hook it, let the concubine fetch it.

"Yes~ my lord!"

Hearing Gou Ze's words, the concubine hurriedly said coquettishly, then got up cheerfully, picked up the bamboo slip from the wooden table from where Bai Yan was sitting just now, and brought it back to Gou Ze.

Hook took the bamboo slips and opened them slowly.

As for the murder, Gou Ze also knew that the city guard Qin Si and the city captain Du Ying of Gongcheng were all Bai Yan's people.

However, when Danggou saw the content, his eyes widened suddenly, and his breathing became short of breath.

"what?"

Gou Ze suddenly closed the bamboo slips and shook his head in a daze: "No, it's not me, nor Feng Wen!"

Gou slowly lowered his head and looked at the bamboo slip in his hand.

Before that, he had always thought that those killers were all from Qin Si and Du Ying in Gongcheng.

But right now, the words in the letter between Qin Si and Du Ying show that Qin Si and Du Ying, like him, think that the killers are the ones he hooked up.

thought here.

Gou Ze still doesn't understand, Bai Yan is in Yingchuan County, and there are dark chess!

"Fortunately, I didn't collude with those gentry!"

The same sentence, but in Gou Ze's mouth at this moment, it has a completely different meaning.

What Cai just said was out of self-interest, but right now, he was lucky to save his life.

Tick ​​is clear.

If he had really betrayed Bai Yan back then, maybe now he is very likely to have become a corpse.

"Sir, what's wrong?"

What the concubine said brought the dull-faced Gouze back to his senses.

Looking at the concubine, Gou Ze had already made up his mind in his mind at this moment, he must not hesitate in the future, and he had done so many things for Bai Yan, there was already no way out.

Right now, his only way out is to stay in the dark and be protected by Bai Yan.

"pity!"

Hook sighed.

It's a pity that in the past two days, Bai Yan seemed to look down on his beautiful concubine.

Either way.

Maybe Bai Yan disliked that he had enjoyed it.

Then next time you meet a beauty, you will grab it and keep it in the mansion, and in the future, you will also keep a lot of money and jewelry for Bai Yan.

mid-July.

Under the scorching sun, Yao Jia's carriage was driving slowly on the official road, when he saw a man who had been waiting for a long time, stepped forward and saluted.

Under Yao Jia's watchful eyes, the man came forward with a scroll of bamboo slips in his hand after he finished his salute.

Yao Jia took the bamboo slips.

There is a saying that the army has not moved, the food and grass go first, and sneaking into other countries to cause discord is similar to the truth.

After all, he is different from other people. He has been alienating other countries for Qin all the year round, and I don't know how much he wants to get rid of him.

News.

Sometimes it's his life.

Yingzheng gave him so much money, and his disciples had already spread all over the world.

When he decided to go to Handan, he sent out visitors to monitor the news of Handan in advance.

"Huh? Xu Zixiao?"

Yao Jia looked at the strange name on the bamboo slips and frowned.

Among the gentry he knew, among the Xu family he had never known, there was a man named Xu Zixiao.

Moreover, the Xu family can get [-] grain and millet, and Xu Zixiao, a child of the Xu family, is in charge.

"Bai Yan?"

Looking at the back, when I learned that the [-] grains and grains of Young Master Jia were all from the hands of Xu Zixiao, I contacted Bai Yan to send a divorce plan.

This was too much of a coincidence, Yao Jia couldn't help but suspect immediately that Xu Zixiao was played by Bai Yan.

After all, knowing that Xinzheng Hanling's death was caused by Bai Yan, he no longer dared to underestimate Bai Yan.

But after reading it.

Yao Jia frowned even more.

"Xu Zixiao was assassinated in Beishi, and he was poisoned by the secret system? Even the Handan imperial physicians have no solution?"

After reading it, Yao Jia looked thoughtful, shook his head, and then turned to look at the man.

"Is this news accurate?"

Yao Jia asked.

If Xu Zixiao is Bai Yan, then this matter is very serious, the poison in his body is so poisonous that even the Handan Imperial Physician can't understand it, then it is very likely that Bai Yan has died in Handan.

"My lord, this news is absolutely true!"

The man said to Yao Jia.

heard.

Yao Jia looked away, thought for a while, and finally made a decision.

"You set off immediately, take my secret letter to Yanyu, and then hand it over to General Bai in person!"

Yao Jia looked at the man and said.

It was not an important matter to ask the door-keepers to deliver the secret letter, but Yao Jia wanted to know if Bai Yan was here at the moment.

Once Yao Jia was an official in the State of Zhao, and after the State of Qin, Yao Jia often took revenge in secret, and some of them came and went. Yao Jia was naturally aware of the abilities of the Handan Imperial Physician.

The poison in Xu Zixiao's body was so poisonous that even Handan's physicians and imperial physicians could not do anything about it.

in this way.

If Bai Yan was not in Yanyu, and he couldn't contact Bai Yan after he arrived in Handan, then Bai Yan might be Xu Zixiao, who had died of poisoning.

On the other hand, if the disciples go to Yanyu and hand over the secret letter to Bai Yan, they will see that Bai Yan is safe and sound.

That proves that Xu Zixiao is someone else!
