Qin Gong

inside the room.

With the maid serving hot tea, on the wooden table, the maid poured water from the pot. When the wooden cup on the wooden table was filled with tea, a trace of mist floated up.

The maid had stepped back and left.

As for Zheng Liu, Wu Gao, and Shi Yan who were around the wooden table, they still haven't regained their senses for a long time.

Xu Zixiao's mentor is Doctor Qi Tian Jin!

This was something that the three of them did not expect, but it was the same. Shiyan finally understood why Xu Zixiao knew about his childhood.

Because one of the three elders is surprisingly Doctor Qi Duke Jin.

Duke Jin is a good friend of his grandfather, he came from Qi State to Wei State in the past, when he parted, his grandfather specially took him with him to send Duke Jin to the outside of Daliang City.

"Zixiao, why didn't you tell me this time when you were in Handan before!"

Wu Gao's expression was still in a daze at the moment, and he looked sideways at the young man, full of doubts.

If Bai Yan had revealed his identity in Handan back then, not to mention other elders of the gentry, even Young Master Jia and even Princess Zhao Qiu would have attached great importance to Xu Zixiao.

After all, although Mr. Jin is just a doctor of the Qi State, in the hearts of scholars all over the world, Mr. Jin is worthy of being a rare and virtuous prime minister.

It's a pity that Duke Jin can't understand the various practices of Qi State, those gentry and officials accepting bribes from Qin State, betraying the country for profit, and even less able to understand the inaction of King Qi.

is also like this.

From the beginning to the end, Duke Jin never took a step to become the prime minister of a country.

Although Duke Jin had been killed, if Zixiao revealed that he was a follower of Duke Jin, his status would definitely be too high for a while.

"The teacher is dead, it's useless to talk more!"

Bai Yan heard Wu Gao's words and explained softly.

The meaning of this sentence is very thought-provoking. The first meaning of Wuyi can be understood as, even if you don’t say it, you can’t change anything. Going to Zhao Guo is to help Zhao Guo, even if you don’t mention the teacher’s name, you can also help Zhao Guo.

Another meaning of Wuyi is that the reason why the teacher did not tell the world before his death was to protect him, and if it was spread, it would be bad for him.

After all, Duke Jin had offended too many pro-Qin forces back then.

inside the room.

Hearing Bai Yan's words, Wu Gao, Zheng Liu and Shi Yan nodded.

The three of them firmly believed in this matter. After all, Xu Zixiao's mysterious identity did not need to lie, not to mention that he was very clear about Shiyan just now. He also knew the past of Jin Gong and Shiyan's grandfather Shicheng. It's so clear that some of them don't even know about it.

Wu Gao looked at Bai Yan, thinking that if his eldest sister knew that Zi Xiao was Jin Gong's beloved disciple, she would be shocked.

"By the way, Zixiao, how did you survive after leaving Handan, and why did you do this in Luoyang?"

Wu Gao thought for a while, and asked.

After all, Zheng Liu and Shiyan in this room are all his own people, so there is no need to be suspicious, and naturally there is no need to be so taboo.

"It's a long story!"

Bai Yan shook his head, smiled on his pale cheeks, and then the smile disappeared slowly.

"Earlier, Mrs. Xu went to Handan of Zhao State to secretly help Young Master Jia. Guo Kai had already betrayed him to Qin. After Qin knew about it, he was secretly preparing to deal with Mrs. Xu."

Bai Yan explained.

As soon as the voice fell, there was an exclamation in the study.

"What? Guo Kai!"

"Danger!"

"Guo Kai, I will definitely kill that Guo Kai during this trip!"

When Zheng Liu and Shiyan heard Bai Yan's words, they immediately realized that Xu's situation must be very dangerous after being targeted by Qin Guo, while Wu Gao looked angry.

Only then did Wu Gao remember that he had forgotten everything back then, that Guo Kai had approached Zi Xiao, that is to say, Guo Kai knew clearly that Zi Xiao had helped Prince Jia and Zhao Guo against Qin.

"Well! This trip I want to do two things, the first thing is to get rid of Guo Kai, and the second thing is to be the same as us."

Bai Yan said softly.

After finishing speaking, seeing the puzzled faces of the three of them, Bai Yan did not hide his intention of coming.

He really wanted to kill Guo Kai during this trip.

But seeing that the three of them hadn't had time to react, Bai Yan took the bamboo slips on the wooden table in front of him, next to the teacup, and handed it to Zheng Liu.

"The purpose is the same?"

Shiyan and Wu Gao looked at each other with some doubts.

After regaining consciousness, at this moment, a thought instinctively emerged in my heart.

But the two rejected this idea in their hearts. After all, their plot to assassinate Ying Zheng was strictly kept secret, and very few people knew about it. Not to mention, no one knew where Mrs. Xu was before. So I didn't contact Xu to say anything.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Xu Zixiao to know now!

"what!!"

Zheng Liu suddenly exclaimed, startling both Shi Yan and Wu Gao.

After regaining consciousness, Shi Yan and Wu Gao realized that Zheng Liu's face was filled with fear and lingering fear, and even his face turned pale.

Zheng Liu's appearance puzzled Shi Yan and Wu Gao.

What exactly was written on the bamboo slips that could make Zheng Liuji look like this.

Accompanied by this thought, before the two of them could ask, he suddenly saw Zheng Liu putting away the bamboo slips, getting up and backing away, and knelt down to salute Xu Zixiao.

"Zheng Liu represents the Zheng family, thank Mr. Xu for saving his life!"

Zheng Liuman kowtowed gratefully and said, his tone was full of excitement, and also full of rejoicing for the rest of his life after the catastrophe.

A life-saving grace.

It was enough for Zheng Liu to salute Bai Yan.

"No, cough cough cough~!"

Bai Yan quickly waved his hands, wanted to get up to help, but unexpectedly coughed, and a look of pain appeared on his face again.

Seeing this, Wu Gao quickly signaled Bai Yan not to move, Shiyan was also full of concern.

Seeing this, Zheng Liu knew that he couldn't make Bai Yan move too much, so after saluting again, he put all his gratitude in his heart.

"Cough cough cough~!"

Bai Yan coughed, enjoying Wu Gao holding the teacup to his mouth, and drinking water for himself.

Only then did Shiyan take the bamboo slips from Zheng Liu's hands and look at them.

In the process of watching, Shiyan's expression kept changing, and he finally understood why Zheng Liu would say that Xu Junzi had saved Zheng's life.

On this scroll of bamboo slips, there are detailed records of Zheng's conspiracy with Shiyan and Wu's, and among them are some spies who were brought to Ying Zheng's side.

"Brother Wu, look!"

After seeing the corpse Yan, he saw Wu Gao looking over suspiciously, so he handed the bamboo slips to Wu Gao.

"What did you write?"

Wu Gao asked curiously, and when he saw Bai Yan coming over slowly, he reached out to take the bamboo slips and looked at them.

Seeing this, Wu Gao's expression also kept changing, and then he looked at Bai Yan full of rejoicing.

"Zi Xiao, where did this come from?"

Wu Gao asked curiously.

Wu Gao really didn't understand why such an important matter was all recorded in detail in this bamboo slip, and it also appeared in Zi Xiao's hands.

At this time, look at Bai Yan's expression.

Wu Gao finally seemed to know why Bai Yan ordered someone to call him over.

I didn't ask him to come over to reminisce, but I saved his life!
"A careful cut, don't worry, the person who sent this scroll of bamboo slips has been killed and sent to be buried outside the city. I have also taken people to Yan's mansion."

Bai Yan didn't go into too much detail, but simply summed it up in one sentence.

But just this one sentence was enough to make Zheng Liu, Wu Gao, and Shi Yan break out in cold sweat.

"Zixiao's trip is also here to get rid of Yingzheng?"

Shi Yan looked at Bai Yan and asked softly.

After reading this scroll of bamboo slips, it is not clear where the corpse is. The second thing Zi Xiao said just now was the assassination of Ying Zheng.

"If you don't kill Yingzheng, my Xu family will be in danger of extermination at any time!"

When Bai Yan heard Shiyan's words, he didn't hide anything.

Looking at the three people in front of him, Bai Yan already had a detailed plan in mind.

No matter in Wu Gao's eyes, or in Shiyan's and Zheng Liu's eyes, he already has the status of helping Zhao Kangqin and Xu's son, and now he has the status of Duke Jin's beloved disciple and this scroll of bamboo slips.

In terms of identity, not only the three people in front of him will not doubt him, but everyone outside, all other gentry, and strength, no one will question his identity anymore.

not to mention.

Bai Yan has already gone to Zhongmou City.

Here in Luoyang, it is Xu Zixiao who is going to kill Guo Kai and save the lives of everyone in the Zheng clan!
