Fisherman's Song Dynasty

The study room was decorated in a simple and delicate manner, but not luxurious. Zhao Gou closed the doors and windows, turned around and looked at Xu Zizhen with a smile, and Xu Zizhen was also looking at him. Some said that he was cowardly and incompetent, and others said that he endured humiliation to protect the country, but no matter what it was, the current King Kang was just wearing a simple green shirt with a smile on his face, like a kind neighbor big brother.

After a long time, Zhao Gou suddenly sighed softly: "Now that the king is too busy to take care of himself, why do you take the risk to find me? Don't you know that the old thief Wang Fu is determined to kill you?"

Xu Zizhen smiled: "In a few days, there will be a big event in Bianjing, Qiye will bear the brunt of it, if I don't come, what will you do?"

Zhao Gou frowned, but he didn't ask what was the matter, but just smiled. Xu Zizhen also looked at him. It was the first time they met formally, but they already looked like a pair of old friends who had known each other for many years.

After a while, Xu Zizhen still said, "Master Qi, did you know that I would come?"

Zhao Gou said: "I knew about you when Xu Bingzhe ordered you to be rounded up, but I believe that nothing will happen to you, and you will find a way to find me after you are out of danger." At this point, he pointed to Xu Zizhen helplessly and said, "It's just that I never thought you would use this method, Secret Envoy of the Kingdom of Jin? Hmph, stupid move!"

The meaning in these words has clearly pointed out that his identity is false, Xu Zizhen was suddenly moved, because of Zhao Gou's trust in him, and he knew that what Zhao Gou said was that his false identity would be discovered one day, and it would be Very passive, even hard to follow him, Xu Zizhen said with a smile: "I don't care if I'm unconscious or not. It's important to get through this hurdle first, and we'll talk about the future."

Zhao Gou hesitated for a moment, then said seriously: "Zizhen, I ask you, do you... really know the Jinren?"

Xu Zizhen smiled: "Are you saying that I have contact with them? This is really not the case."

Zhao Gou asked: "Then...you just said something big, and now you say that this king has a pass, what is it, and how do you know?"

Xu Zizhen paused for a moment and didn't answer right away. After a while, he asked, "Qiye, where are the brothers and sisters from the Tianxiahui? Why has there been no voice for a while?"

There was a wry smile on Zhao Gou's face: "The world will meet, this king's being grounded by his father this time is..."

"They rebelled?"

"That's not true, but in the meeting, dozens of brothers went to Zhending Mansion to assassinate Wan Yan Zongwang on their own initiative. As a result, they suffered heavy casualties, and they were forced to question by the Jin people with their corpses. In a fit of anger, my father blamed me for this matter." .”

Xu Zizhen jumped up all of a sudden: "Damn it! Are they out of their minds? Wu Li is also the marshal of the whole road, and they can kill them with dozens of people?"

Zhao Gou let out a hey voice: "If it wasn't for this king's lack of such skill, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to hold back."

Xu Zizhen clearly saw that Zhao Gou's eyes were burning with anger. The invasion of the Jin people and the loss of the Tianxiahui seemed to have angered the young prince. Xu Zizhen's heart was slightly touched, as if Zhao Gou was not born Cowardly, he was a little angry when he was young.

He was about to blurt out and tell Zhao Gou that Wanyan Zongwang died early, and the one who should pay attention should be Wanyan Zongbi, also known as Jin Wushu. What about her length? And what happened to her disciples?"

Zhao Gou calmed down quickly, and looked at him with a half-smile: "You want to ask Liuli, right?"

"Hey..." Xu Zizhen was not embarrassed, and added by the way, "There is still room for regret."

Zhao Gou raised his brows suddenly, and gave him a meaningful look: "Rong Xi...she has other things to do, so she didn't go on this trip." In Zhending, I don’t know what the situation is like.”

Xu Zizhen's heart sank. Zhending Mansion is now occupied by the enemy. No matter how skilled Taoist Xuanyi and Shui Liuli are, it is difficult for them to face tens of thousands of Jin troops. Hearing what Zhao Gou said, he has lost contact with them. He couldn't help but feel a twinge in his heart. Xu Zizhen really wanted to go to Zhending Mansion to find Shui Liuli himself, but he also knew that it was impossible now because there were more important things waiting for him to do.

Thinking of this, his expression became extremely solemn, and he said slowly: "Qi Ye, Tianwoli will not send people to negotiate these days, and the emperor will cede the land to seek peace."

Zhao Gou said: "Everyone in Bianjing knows about this."

Xu Zizhen said unexpectedly: "Golden Dog has sent someone here?"

"Exactly, the envoy has already entered the palace at this time, but the formal peace talks have not yet been done."

"That's good, I'm not late."

Zhao Gou looked at him with doubts in his eyes. Xu Zizhen stopped playing charades and said bluntly: "Qiye, the golden dog will have two demands. One is to cede the land and pay compensation, and the other is to send the hostages to the gold camp."

Although Xu Zizhen had clearly stated that he had no connection with the Jinren, Zhao Gou still looked at him, and the doubt in his eyes was self-evident.

Xu Zizhen pretended not to see it, and said in a low voice, "Qi Ye, you have to take the initiative to ask to be a hostage and enter the Golden Camp!"

Zhao Gou's pupils shrank sharply, and after a long time he said in a deep voice, "What's the meaning of this?"

Xu Zizhen smiled wryly, everyone would feel that he was abnormal and suspicious of him when this matter happened, Zhao Gou was not bad, at least he didn't turn his face on the spot, but Xu Zizhen had already planned his words in his mind.

"Qi Ye, your title Kang Wang was just granted this year, right?"

"Exactly."

"Then I might as well tell you that I already knew last year that you will be given this title."

Zhao Gou couldn't bear it anymore: "How did you know?"

Xu Zizhen said leisurely: "I also guessed that this year Jin Bing would enter the Song Dynasty, I guessed that Yelu Yanxi would be captured, I guessed that Bianjing would be besieged this year, and I also guessed..." At this point he deliberately paused, Looking at Zhao Gou, he said slowly, "Guess Qiye, you will do a lot."

He didn't directly say that Zhao Gou could be the emperor, because he knew that Zhao Gou in history was timid and afraid to scare him, but he believed that the four words of "great achievements" were enough.

Sure enough, Zhao Gou's complexion changed drastically, and he no longer had the calm look just now. After a long while, he took a deep breath and said, "Zizhen, I want to ask you something, I hope you can tell the truth."

"Qi Ye is polite, you can just ask."

"You...are you really born with psychic powers?"

Xu Zizhen smiled: "If someone asks me, I will definitely deny it, but I can tell you responsibly, yes!"

Isn’t it just pretending? It’s too easy. In his later years, Zhao Gou devoted himself to seeking Taoism and practicing alchemy in order to live forever. To make him trust himself, telling him this kind of fantasy stuff is the most direct and effective way.

The word "yes" was like a reassurance, and Zhao Gou's expression suddenly became very strange. The look gathers in the eyes.

"Okay, I will listen to you and enter the gold camp!"

Xu Zizhen stretched out his right hand with a smile, Zhao Gou thought for a while and then understood, and also stretched out his right hand to hold him together.

"Congratulations Qiye, you have taken the first step to success."
