Under Thief Zhi's emotional, emotional, explosive, and highly contagious deception, the guard obviously believed him and was indeed afraid.
No one is not afraid of death, at least he has not realized this yet.
Just being a low-level officer, what kind of life is he willing to pay for a few hundred dollars a month?
However, even though he was scared, the guard did not completely let go of Robber Zhi.
Maybe Zhang Han really took his life for granted, but Robber Zhi also may not have good intentions towards him.
The so-called "for the sake of compatriots" is just a one-sided statement by the other party, and he may not really be a native of Zhao.
Robber Zhi also knew that what he had just said had only stirred up the other party's dissatisfaction and doubts about Zhang Han, his immediate boss, but it was not enough to make him stand on his side in his heart.
To achieve the latter step, you can't use the information gap to fool him with the truth, and you have to do a really hard job!
Thief Zhi's face, which became excited and flushed due to his impassioned speech, dimmed in an instant, and the sad look once again filled his entire face. Tears appeared in the corners of his eyes, and he continued with a choked tone:
"Do you still remember how the Qin State treated the surrendered soldiers of our Zhao State during the Battle of Changping?"
The topic of the Battle of Changping caused the guard's expression to change immediately.
Even though so many years have passed, and even if Wu'an Jun Bai Qi ended up dying a bad end, the Battle of Changping is still an eternal pain in the hearts of all Zhao people, and is a scar that cannot be erased.
Of course, it is also the topic that most resonates with the people of Zhao and inspires their hatred of Qin.
Robber Zhi obviously hit the key topic.
"One general's success will make a thousand bones wither!"
"For a man like Zhang Han, we are just stepping stones for him to get promoted and make a fortune. No matter how many people die, he will not take it to heart."
"Stepping stone, why bother stepping stone?" Tears were already falling from the corners of Thieves Zhi's eyes.
Infected by his emotions and words, the corners of the guard's eyes gradually became moist.
"To be honest, although my friend is very strong, I actually don't know if I can escape from this prison alive."
"But, as a fellow countryman, I don't want you to die in this Qin prison or on the land of Qilu."
"When a man is about to die, his words are also good."
"If possible, I hope you can return to Zhao's homeland alive, because we are Zhao people. Even if we die, our souls should return to our hometown instead of being buried in a foreign land!"
"So, when my friends come, I must find the right opportunity to escape!"
At this point, Robber Zhi was gradually sobbing, and his body was twitching.
The guard also burst into tears and was sobbing.
I have to say that with Thief Zhi's acting skills and eloquence, being a thief is a bit unworthy. He should be a politician.
At this time, Thieves Zhi glanced at the guard quietly with his peripheral vision, and thought calmly in his heart.
This time, the other party was completely fooled by him.
To be honest, Thief Zhi doesn't know what use it will be to win over such an inconspicuous little pawn to his side, but... I have nothing to do, so I just want to brush up on my acting skills.
This arrangement may come in handy.

"It takes a thousand days to raise an army, but it can be spent in a moment!"
In the small courtyard where Gu Xun settled, he was pacing back and forth, speaking passionately:
"Now, it's your time to make a difference...so who can help me?"
Opposite Gu Xun, Yan Lingji was sitting high on a branch with her two white feet dangling, her bright red skirt fluttering slightly, and she was fiddling with her nails with a bored look on her face.
Nongyu sat upright at the small table, wearing a long goose-yellow skirt hanging at her feet, with a warm smile on her lips, looking at Gu Xun softly.
Gu Xun saw that neither of them answered, so he clapped his hands helplessly, "Don't just watch, you should talk instead!"
Seeing this, Nong Yu covered her mouth and smiled, and then said first, "Brother Gu, it's not that I won't help you, but I really don't know Sister Yan Fei very well. If I go, my intention will be too obvious and it will be useless."
Gu Xun rolled his eyes when he heard this, then raised his head to look at Yan Lingji, "What about you? You haven't been bored lately. I think this is quite interesting."
Yan Lingji in turn gave Gu Xun a roll of her eyes and replied angrily:
"I'm bored, but I want to have fun, not feel uncomfortable!"
"I don't get along with that woman. You're going crazy if you ask me to go find out information for you!"
That's right, what Gu Xun said about "use it for a while" was actually asking Nong Yu or Yan Lingji to help him go to Yan Fei to find out the news.
Concubine Yan was now very guarded against him and completely unable to communicate with him. Gu Xun had no choice but to find a way to save him.
Seeing that neither of them accepted the task, he sighed helplessly and continued:
"Concubine Yan, if you don't want to contact me, then find another one and help me talk to Jing Salamander."
"She, you two are familiar enough, right?"
The seemingly well-behaved Nongyu shook her head decisively, "I am familiar with Sister Jingbalo, but if she doesn't want to tell me, I won't dare to ask more questions."
Jing Salamander... how should I put it, can be regarded as the mistress of the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, Gu Xun's 'big wife', although others may not agree with this.
Because she was involved in all the internal affairs of the Imperial Prefect's Office, and because she had a cold personality and was relatively cold and talkative, she was not an easy target for others to get in touch with.
Nong Yu's relationship with her needs to be familiar, but it will definitely not be as casual as with Zi Nu.
Yan Lingji rolled her eyes and replied as usual, "She and I don't get along, so no!"
Nong Yu aside, Gu Xun made Yan Lingji laugh angrily, couldn't help pinching her waist and asked:
"Tell me, is there anyone else who is compatible with you?"
"Yes!" Yan Lingji replied casually, "You and I are very compatible. Do you need me to get any information from you?"
"Huh!" Gu Xun took a deep breath, suppressed his desire to curse, and said as calmly as possible, "Then is there any way you can help me?"
Yan Lingji smoothed her hair with her palms and asked angrily:
"Then you should tell me first, what exactly do you want to do?"
"I've been talking for a long time, but I still don't understand what's going on!"
Nong Yu also echoed, "Yes, Brother Gu, what is going on between you and Sister Yan Fei? How could she not tell you?"
"What's the matter... This child has no mother. It's a long story." Gu Xun sighed and explained simply, "In short, it has something to do with Canglong Qisu, and also with Concubine Yan's previous mission at the Yin Yang Family.
related."
"Originally, she should have completely let go of this matter, but now for some reason, she suddenly insists on getting involved again, and even brings Chitaki with her!"
"No matter what you say, it's useless!"
"I want to know now why she suddenly changed her mind."
"Do you have any clues?"
Hearing this, Nong Yu's expression became much more serious:
"This is no small matter. Canglong Qisu's matter... I'm afraid there will be a lot of danger, right?"
"Yes." Gu Xun nodded with lowered eyebrows, "Even I can't get a full picture of Canglong Qisu's affairs. It's difficult to completely ensure the safety of their mother and daughter."
