It was noon. Tian An, Han Cheng and other nobles from the six countries were seated separately, but no one took the initiative to speak. After the family served the food, a few people made some moves and began to talk here and there.
.
"Have you all received the news in the evening?" Tian Huan stroked his beard, glanced at the people seated in a subtle way, and said noncommittally.
Tian Huan's face has low cheekbones, and his face looks a bit strange. If you look closely, you can see that the strange shape of his face is due to his beard. The beard in his middle position is very thick, but his chin is very sparse, so he looks strange.
Somewhat weird.
But no one in the field dared to look down upon Tian Huan.
He is the one who dares to kill the king!
Tian Huan is the nephew of King Jian of Qi. During the last great expedition in Guanzhong, he conspired with his father Tian Jia and brother Tian Sheng to starve King Jian of Qi to death. Not much is known about this to the outside world, but the nobles of the six countries have interacted with each other over the years.
, how could you not have heard about this?
Zhao Xie said:
"It's true."
"Brother Tian, what do you think of this?"
Tian Huan said bluntly:
"Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens!"
"We secretly have a close relationship with the various schools of thought. If the various schools of thought really turn to the Qin court, they may really expose us. We have to be more careful. We all know that most scholars in the world do not like Qin.
, serving the Qin Dynasty is mostly just a temporary measure."
"But there are no absolutes."
"Now the Qin court is becoming more and more strict in controlling the world."
"We have a deep understanding, and so do the hundreds of schools. Now the doctor has proposed a new idea. Although it is absurd and cannot withstand scrutiny, the hundreds of schools may not have weak-minded schools. In the past, the reason why the hundreds of schools of thought and
We are working together, mainly because if we don’t resist, we will lose our knowledge and the sect. They have no choice but to take risks.”
"Now something has changed."
"Although I am happy to see Qin Ting messing around, I have to be cautious."
"Qin Ting has always hated us."
Zhao Xie said:
"What does Brother Tian want to do?"
"Should we follow the advice of those Confucian scholars? Take advantage of the changes in Xianyang officials to find an opportunity to escape from Xianyang? Or should we continue to stay in Xianyang and choose to cut off ties with various schools of thought to avoid being implicated in the future?"
Tian Huan sneered and said, "Stay in Xianyang? Are you willing to stay in Xianyang?"
Zhao Xie shook his head directly and said: "Of course I don't want to." He continued: "Xianyang is prosperous, but we are not from Qin. We have no sense of belonging here, let alone any sense of security. The last time we went to Guanzhong, there was no sound.
In a short time, several 'kings' died, even 'kings' are like this, let alone us, the descendants of the clan?"
"It's just that we can't escape that easily."
Tian Huan was noncommittal and said: "Even if it's not easy, we still have to find opportunities to stay in Xianyang. It's just a dead end. Ying...he won't allow us to be free, and Qin Ting seems to be aware of the land annexation."
It has something to do with me and others, and we have started to investigate deliberately. Although nothing has been found so far, who can guarantee that we will never find anything?"
"If the economic supply from the local area is cut off, I'm afraid we will have to beg for a living in the future."
"Qin Ting is constantly tightening its control over us."
Zhao Xie frowned.
He glanced at Tian Huan for a few times, vaguely guessing Tian Huan's intention, and said: "Brother Tian, if you have anything to say, it's okay to say it directly. We and other nobles of the Six Nations are like grasshoppers on a rope. We are all prosperous, and we are all harmed.
, we still understand this truth.”
Tian Huan laughed and said cheerfully: "Since everyone said so, I will speak boldly. Over the years, I and other nobles from the Six Kingdoms have made acquaintance with some officials of the Qin court through their beauty, gold, silver and jewelry.
I want you to show off a little bit."
Hear the words.
The expressions of everyone present changed.
Tian Huan saw everything in his eyes and said with a touch of coldness on his face: "I know this is somewhat taboo, but in special times, we should be treated specially. We are now in Xianyang, living under the shelter of others, all day long
You can only act based on other people's faces, haven't you had enough?"
"You should all know this in your heart."
"It is impossible to escape Xianyang by our own strength. Only by gathering the strength of our family can we have a chance. And there is not much time left for us. At the moment, the Qin Dynasty is in the northern expedition to the Xiongnu. It wants to
After pacifying the Hu troubles, if we subdue hundreds of schools of thought, we may not be able to escape even if we try to struggle."
“Don’t lose big because of small things.”
"Besides."
"After I escape, I will become a criminal wanted by the government. Do you still expect these Qin officials to speak for you and protect your lives?"
"They are from Qin!"
"The people of Qin are enemies of the country and our family!"
"How could the Qin court fail to find out after we escape? By then, these officials will be executed without exception, and by then, these Qin officials will no longer be of any use to us. Why do you cover up for these people?
Cover it up?"
Everyone was indifferent.
Of course they know this.
If the clans of the Six Kingdoms include their family members, there are close to a thousand people. With such a huge number, it is impossible for all of them to escape. Someone will definitely be caught or abandoned, and those people will be the first to flee.
Needs to be discussed.
How can they accept it if they are asked to reveal their trump card before even a single word of fortune is revealed?
Zhao Xie said:
"What Brother Tian said makes sense."
"It's just that we have acted too hastily. Although we have the intention to escape, after all, we have not planned carefully. How dare we hand over the details so hastily? It's not that I don't believe Brother Tian's words, but it is related to the safety of the clan. I
Don’t dare not think deeply.”
"Brother Tian, please forgive me."
Tian Huan remained calm and said with a smile: "You may have misunderstood. I don't want to know the specific officials. I just want to get a general idea of where these officials are, or which official office they are located in, so that we can plan our escape."
I have a general understanding of what happened in Xianyang."
"It's about my own safety, so I'm a little speechless."
"I hope you don't worry about it."
Hear the words.
Zhao Xie and others nodded slightly.
Just talking about the official office, this is not unacceptable, and they really need to get to the bottom of it, otherwise they will be suspicious of each other and flee Xianyang, which is just a dream.

Tian Huan took the initiative and said:
"Since you guys have no objection."
"I'll just throw some ideas and take the initiative to talk about it."
"I, Mr. Tian, currently have friendships with three courtiers from the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Young Master's Mansion. If I include officials from various major government offices, I can talk to more than twenty officials. Of course, the main ones are the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Young Master's Mansion.
in."
"Everyone, what about you?"
Zhao Xie hesitated for a moment and then said: "I, the Zhao family, are not as powerful as you, the Tian family. I can only have friendship with one courtier in the Dianke Mansion and the Shaofu Mansion, and I can almost have friendship with more than 20 officials in these two departments."
Talk."
Then Han Xin, Wei Jiu, Xiong Xin and others spoke one after another.
But they are all vague.
After getting to know each other, everyone started to eat. With the help of glasses and cups, the atmosphere became more and more harmonious.
Finished eating.
All the nobles from the six countries left the scene.
Tian An followed Tian Huan and walked at the back.
Seeing that the other nobles from the six countries had gone away, Tian An asked curiously: "Uncle, we are here to find out the details this time. Why did uncle ask other nobles to reveal all their family background? Isn't this obviously impossible?"
Tian Huan touched his beard, and there was a hint of depth in his eyes.
Said softly:
"You don't understand these people. They are all smart. If I ask them to reveal their family background at the beginning, how can they agree so easily? There will be all kinds of excuses and obstacles."
"When dealing with these people, you need to be cautious and leave some room for maneuver."
"I knew they wouldn't reveal all the details of their family background, and I never thought they would. I knew that asking questions like this would make them emotional, but I still did it."
"Why?"
"We are all from the clans of the Six Kingdoms, and we have always given orders. How can we easily listen to others? So when we talk to them, we need to bring some reconciliation and some compromise, so I asked them to tell them the details of their family background as soon as I came.
, they will definitely not allow it, but I have already explained the current situation before, and then suggested that they specify a range, and they naturally agreed."
"The world only knows that my Tian family is the representative of Qi, but they don't know my Tian family's wisdom."
"My Tian family's ability to grow from weak to strong and then to become the leader step by step depends not only on the hard work of the previous kings, but more importantly on the way of doing things. In this regard, my Tian family considers that I am not inferior to anyone in the world.
clan."
"It's just that after I, Tian, took over from Qi, I didn't have much use for these."
"But now I am living under someone else's roof, in order to protect myself, and to unite other nobles so that I can escape Xianyang safely in the future. It is not difficult to pick up these ways of doing things again."
Tian An nodded.
A teachable look.
Just as the two of them were walking out the door, Tian An accidentally caught a glimpse of a figure. He frowned slightly and immediately stopped. He stopped and took a few glances. After confirming the identity of the person, a cold look appeared in his eyes.
meaning.
He opened his mouth and said:
"Uncle, wait a moment."
"I think there seems to be something going on over there. I want to go take a look first."
Tian Huan frowned.
He turned his head and glanced to the side.
I saw the owner of the restaurant talking to a young man with a high crown. The young man was holding something in his hand, but he didn't see anything going on between the two of them.
but.
Wait for him to look back.
Tian An has already walked over.
Seeing the visitor, the host quickly saluted and said, "I've met Mr. Tian."
Tian An ignored it, glanced at Qin Luoheng sideways, and said coldly: "What are you doing?"
Sheren wanted to please him and said:
"Mr. Tian, this is what happened."
"This is Dr. Qin from the Doctor's Academy. He has grown vegetables at home and wants the restaurant to collect some. Aren't we negotiating the price?"
Tian An glanced at it.
Indifferently said:
"No."
"His food doesn't look fresh at first glance. Go tell the store. If you accept his food, I will never come to his restaurant again."
"I can't bear to see this mess."
Finished.
Tian An simply rolled up his sleeves and left.
Shiren was stunned on the spot, looking at the green vegetables in his hands with a hint of doubt in his eyes. He glanced at Qin Luoheng again, his behavior seemed a little confused.
