Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 605 I’ve always seen newcomers smile.
  Then, Yan Lingji laughed and sighed:
  "However, it's rare that you, the shopkeeper, are willing to spend so much time dealing with unimportant... enemies?"

Gu Xun usually deceives people, either for the purpose of making excuses or for making money, but today he accompanied Xiong Qi in such a long play, but he neither collected valuable information nor made much money.

"He...he is still very valuable." Gu Xun smiled and answered something that made Yan Lingji confused.

Although Yan Lingji was confused, Gu Xun said this more than once, but the other party still had no intention of explaining, and she was too lazy to ask more questions.

On the other side, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Xiong Qi brothers were also chatting.

Changwenjun Xiong Dian said to his brother with a worried look:

"Brother, I don't think Gu Xun is trustworthy! Cooperating with him is like seeking skin from a tiger... He is also a mad tiger who may go crazy at any time."

The second half of the sentence is the key. Xiong Dian is not a courageous person. It is dangerous to seek skin from a tiger, but it is worth a try. But it is too dangerous for someone like Gu Xun who doesn't care about you.

Xiong Qi looked forward with unfocused eyes and moved his fingers unconsciously, "I know, but... I think it's worth it."

"Ying Zheng has done too many things secretly during this period. We still haven't figured out his purpose. Gu Xun, who is inexplicably relied upon by him, is undoubtedly the best breakthrough point."

In fact, the Yin Yang family is more suitable than Gu Xun, because there is some confusion between the Yin Yang family and the Chu State, but Xiong Qi does not dare to take risks, nor is he willing to take risks.

Only a very few people knew about his secret connection with the Chu State. Even the King of Chu and most of the clan members did not know about it. The Yin Yang Family was no exception. If he tried to find out from the Yin Yang Family, it would be possible. Reveal flaws.

He couldn't trust the Yin Yang family.

Xiong Dian hesitated and guessed at this time, "Brother, Ying Zheng's actions are closely related to the Yin Yang family, so it should be related to Canglong Qisu, right?"

"It stands to reason that this is the case, but it's a pity..."

Speaking of this, Xiong Qi couldn't help but frown, and his tone was a bit hateful.

The person in Chu who knew the most about Canglong Qisu was called Huang Xie, and he was already dead, or died suddenly, without having time to say anything.

Xiong Qi got angry when he thought about this. Originally, Huang Xie had planned to tell him everything about Canglong Qisu and let him continue to keep this secret. Unfortunately, before he could do it, he was killed by Li Yuan. .

Pig teammates!

And as far as Xiong Qi knew, the Yin Yang family seemed to be behind Chun Shenjun's death, which made him even more distrustful of those warlocks who talked all day long.

The death of Lord Chun Shen also caused Xiong Qi to lose his most important contact in Chu State. He could not trust the newly succeeded King of Chu, nor Li Yuan, so he simply cut off most of his contacts. , just enough to hide it from the keen-minded Ying Zheng.

Xiong Dian also knew about this, and didn't know what to say to comfort Xiong Qi, so he could only change the topic, "But about Canglong Qisu... I remember brother, didn't you say that Canglong Qisu was attracted to the royal family of the Seven Kingdoms? Isn’t it powerful? Therefore, the royal families of various countries rarely pay too much attention to related matters. Therefore, the Yin Yang family has not tried to use the power of the princes to pursue Canglong Qisu for many years. "

When Xiong Qi heard this, the thoughts in his mind were indeed transferred away. He no longer thought about his pig teammates, and sighed slightly and said:

"That's right, but Lord Chun Shen mentioned this to me accidentally before he was alive. He didn't go into details. I don't know the reason."

"Maybe... maybe the Yin Yang family discovered some key points that caused Ying Zheng to become interested in Canglong Qisu, or... Canglong Qisu is of sufficient value to Qin."

After analyzing this, Xiong Qi couldn't help but feel a little impetuous - it would be great if Lord Chun Shen hadn't died...

"In this case, Gu Xun's place..." Xiong Dian was a little silent.

If the matter is really important, then we really have to ignore the danger of Gu Xun and find a way to find out the truth from the other party at any cost.

Xiong Qi waved his hand and comforted his brother, "Don't worry too much. Judging from Gu Xun's appearance, he should have some thoughts about Fusu's future. For the sake of this relationship, he will not act recklessly... At least it won’t be too much.”

At the end of the sentence, Xiong Qi couldn't help but hesitate slightly, and then changed his tone.

"I hope so..." Xiong Dian was also not confident about Xiong Qi's statement, and responded in a sarcastic tone. “Brother, what should we do with the farmer’s side?”

Xiong Qi's face darkened, he couldn't help but close his eyes, and then opened them immediately - as soon as he closed his eyes, he recalled Gu Xun's face before, and he was so angry!

"What else can we do? Let's find a way to raise money."

Xiong Qi had no choice. The farmhouse was not only closely related to his current layout, but also an indispensable part of his backup plan just in case. No matter how much money he spent, he had to support it.

"Uh... how much are you raising?" Xiong Dian's face also fell and he asked in a sluggish tone.

Xiong Qi didn't hesitate much, waved his hand and said a number, "Eighty thousand gold, it can't be less than this number."

Although Gu Xun's previous joke made Xiong Qi half angry, he still keenly captured the key point - one hundred and eighty thousand is never too little. In other words, any less would be too little for him.

Fortunately, there was also a piece of good news invisibly - Gu Xun only said that the price would change, and did not forcefully require the farmers to repay the money in advance, and the period was still three months.

Then Xiong Qi warned, "Remember, you must not let others notice."

Xiong Dian nodded, "I understand."

Needless to say, Xiong Qi also knew that he couldn't let others discover that the two brothers were raising a large amount of cash. The only problem was that 80,000 gold... It was already very difficult to raise this amount of money in three months. , and want to hide it from everyone... This is really a hard job.

………………

"How about it, do you want some more?" Gu Xun stood near the door of the restaurant, looking sideways at the signboard, and casually asked Yan Lingji.

Yan Lingji hesitated for a moment - although Gu Xun was not full, she had eaten a lot and there was no need to eat another meal.

Just as she was debating whether to wait until Gu Xun finished eating before going back together, she caught a glimpse of a blue figure. Her expression suddenly changed from hesitant to joking. The playfulness in her eyes almost overflowed, and she was about to agree.

But Gu Xun also saw that figure and touched Yan Lingji's head, "You go back first."

Yan Lingji's face darkened when she heard this, she looked at Gu Xun with an unkind expression, and sneered, "The shopkeeper is really fond of the new and hates the old. When he sees the new guy, he can't wait to kick me out."

Gu Xun glanced at her sideways - this has something to do with old and new, you just want to watch the fun.

"Either leave now, or I'll go see Yan Dan tomorrow and pick one." Gu Xun didn't waste any time and asked her a multiple-choice question.

Yan Lingji pursed her lips, snorted coldly, turned around and walked away.

　Chang Wenjun's name is a guess.

　　According to historical facts, after Lu Buwei's death, Ying Zheng abolished the position of prime minister, that is, the position of prime minister, and the Qin State changed to a system of left and right prime ministers. The names of the left and right prime ministers after Lu Buwei were Qi and Dian respectively.

　　Qi should refer to Xiong Qi. As for Dian, some people think it is Chang Wenjun.

　　However, I have not found any historical data that Changwenjun and Changpingjun stabbed Qin in the back together. It seems that he passed away first.

　　Another point is that Changping Lord Xiong Qi and Ying Zheng must be related to each other. It is generally believed that Xiong Qi is Ying Zheng's cousin. I will count them as equals here, otherwise it would be too weird.

　　By the way, it seems that because Fusu's name comes from Zheng Feng, a Chinese national, I don't know where the saying came from that Fusu's mother-in-law was from the Zheng Dynasty...

　　It’s confusing. Zheng Guo fell into ruin more than a hundred years ago. How did this Zheng Guo native calculate this statement? Is it based on geographical location? Isn’t that Korea?
