Chapter 485: The bustling world is all for profit, and the temples and camps are all for fame!
Jingju said:
"I've thought about it."
"Now that other nobles are staring at us so hard, if this person is able to get close to me, he must have some ability. Although his identity is not obvious, he may not be incapable of it. Either way, he will die, so it is better to give it a try."
"At least......"
"There is still a chance to live!"
Qu Bo looked at Jing Ju and sighed helplessly.
Then he picked up the wine bottle and started drinking by himself.
So does everyone else.
Seeing the expressions on the others, Jing Ju secretly clenched his fists. He was really unwilling to die like this. Moreover, even if others in the clan escaped, but he himself was dead, what was the point of that?
He doesn't want to die.
He wants to live!!!
Jing Ju sat on the ground, drinking heavily, his eyes were red. He had made up his mind to go back later and see if Liu Ji was still there. He just wanted to put all his efforts into it!
Bang bang bang!
Sudden.
There were knocks at the door.
The knocking made everyone upset, Zhaozhou immediately shouted dissatisfied: "What is going on with you? Don't you know we are drinking?"
"roll!!!"
The knocking on the door did not stop.
At the same time, a very casual voice came in.
"Young masters, I'm here to bring you wine and dog meat. Please open the door and let me put these things in. It's really tiring to eat so much."
Hear the words.
Zhaozhou's face became even more unhappy.
There was a lowly Sheren outside the door. You dared not to listen to his words. Do you really think that these three major clans are now in the plains and can be bullied by others?
This is really unreasonable.
Zhao Zhou rose from the ground and wanted to go out and kill people.
However, before Zhaozhou had taken a few steps, he felt his shoulders sink, and someone grabbed him from behind. Zhaozhou turned his head angrily, and when he saw it was Jing Ju, he said with a sullen look on his face: "Jing Ju, stop me.
What are you doing? Although our three major clans are in some decline, we are still not someone who can be bullied by others?"
"Now even a person from the house dares to bully us. In a few days, I'm afraid those slaves will dare to ride on us. We are all going to die anyway, so what's the harm in killing a few people?"
"The Duke of Chu cannot be insulted!"
Zhaozhou was furious.
Jing Ju frowned and looked out the door suspiciously.
Not sure:
"Brother Zhao, please wait for now."
"Do we have some dog meat?" Jing Ju glanced at everyone.
Everyone in the room shook their heads.
What a joke.
They are all of noble origin.
How could you eat this kind of meat that people at the bottom eat?
They only eat mutton.
This is the thought.
Everyone seemed to have come back to their senses.
An idea also appeared in Zhaozhou's mind, and he immediately shouted angrily: "This must be this low-grade meat that other nobles deliberately ordered, just to humiliate us with these low-grade meat. I am really angry!"
"They are indeed capable of doing such despicable things."
"Really damn it!"
Jing Ju shook his head and said solemnly: "Probably not."
"Although the other nobles are keeping a close eye on us now, they also know that going too far is too much, and they don't dare to really push us to a dead end. After all, thinking about our family, we will indeed give in, but if we are pushed too hard, we will die.
But he really dares to commit suicide."
"They are so afraid of causing trouble, how dare they provoke me and others at this time?"
Zhaozhou's face turned darker.
He said gloomily:
"It's not other nobles, it's the owner of this shop."
"Isn't this even more hateful?!"
Jing Ju smiled bitterly and shook his head again.
Ning Sheng said:
"That voice just now seems familiar to me."
"This person is probably Liu Ji!"
"Liu Ji?" Qu Bo said with a confused look on his face: "Who is Liu Ji?"
Jing Ju said: "Liu Ji is the guest of Lord Xinling I mentioned earlier, who is also the pavilion chief of Peixian County."
Hear the words.
Everyone couldn't help but look shocked.
Qu Bo said: "How can this person really be so capable? How dare he approach us in full public view?"
Jing Ju also had a strange look on his face.
Sighed:
"Perhaps we underestimate the world's heroes."
"I suggest that you might as well let him come in and sit down. If you brothers have any doubts, you can also ask directly. Maybe you will have a different view of him by then. If he can really find a way out for us, maybe we can really do it in the future.
I need to thank him."
Everyone looked at each other and nodded secretly.
If Liu Ji had not come to the door, they would not believe this at all. What is their status? Dukes of Chu State, born nobles, even if something really happened, they would not believe the words of a pavilion chief.
This is their natural arrogance.
but now.
You might as well listen to it more.
Qu Bo said: "Now that Liu Ji has arrived at the door, how can we avoid seeing him any longer? Forget it, let's let him in and listen to what insights he has. If he can really help us get out of trouble, then we can give him a chance."
Glory may not be impossible."
"Good!" everyone said in unison.
With a creak, the closed door opened.
What caught the eye was not Liu Ji's cheeks, but the wooden plate held over his head, filled with several plates of fragrant dog meat, and several bottles of wine placed in the middle.
Liu Ji lowered his head and eyebrows, waiting outside respectfully.
See the situation.
Everyone looked satisfied.
Jing Ju's expression was as normal, but he didn't dare to show anything strange at all, and said loudly: "These drinks and food are indeed what I ordered when I came here, please bring them in."
Liu Ji promised.
Then he carefully entered the room.
After entering the room, Liu Ji didn't care. He hooked the door with his foot and closed it.
This scene.
It also made everyone’s eyelids jump wildly.
Liu Ji entered the room, looked around, found a table with fewer people, and sat down without any scruples. Then he threw the empty wine bottle on the plate aside, as if he didn't care at all, and put the wine bottle of the person next to him.
I took it over and started eating meat and drinking wine.
Jing Ju's face darkened.
scolded:
"Liu Ji, how did you know we were here?"
"How did you get in?"
Liu Ji chewed the dog meat on the table into his stomach and felt happy. Then he drank a big gulp of wine, and then he shouted happily:
"happy."
"I haven't been this happy for a long time."
"Cool!"
"Liu Ji, what am I asking you?!" Jing Ju looked a little confused.
Liu Ji looked over sideways.
With a large piece of dog meat stuffed in his mouth, he chewed and said: "Mr. Jing, what you said is that you are naturally following you? You are so prominent in the city, and you will naturally be noticed by many people when you go out. I am not blind, why?
Maybe you can’t see it?”
"As for how you got in?"
"Master Jing is really forgetful. Didn't you ask me to deliver dog meat?"
"and......"
"It's just a tavern, why is it difficult to get in and out?"
Liu Ji said nonchalantly.
Jing Ju frowned and was very dissatisfied with Liu Ji's ruthless attitude. He asked: "You told me a few days ago that you had a way to keep us alive. Are you serious?"
As soon as Jing Ju spoke, everyone else looked over.
Liu Ji wiped his mouth, his palms were full of oil stains, picked up the wine bottle and took a sip, and said with great satisfaction: "I, Liu Ji, always keep my word, and what I tell you is naturally true."
Before Jing Ju could say anything, Zhao Zhou on the side said, "How can we trust you?"
Liu Ji glanced at it and sneered: "It depends on you. If you believe it, of course you will. If you don't believe it, of course you don't believe it. It's up to you whether you believe it or not. I can't make the decision."
"You!" Zhaozhou glared angrily.
Qu Bo said coldly: "I will believe you for once, but since you have talked with Brother Jing, you must know our situation. If so, why do you dare to take this risk?"
"If other nobles find out, let alone you, your whole family may not be able to survive."
"Are you really not afraid of death?"
Liu Jidao:
"It's natural to be afraid of death."
"But sometimes it's okay to take risks."
"Back then, when I was a guest under Lord Xinling, I heard this saying, 'Everything in the world is bustling for profit, and all temples and temples are for fame.' If the price you offer is high enough, let me take the risk.
It’s not a bad idea, but the price must be high enough!”
“Otherwise it wouldn’t be enough for me to work hard!!!”
Liu Ji stated his request very frankly.
Everyone looked at each other, but they were doubtful.
Qu Bo said: "If you can really rescue us, we will give you generous gifts with both hands, but what we want to know now is how you want to rescue us."
Liu Ji ate up a dog leg and threw the bone aside.
proudly said:
"Of course I have my own way."
"You are trapped in the city now. It is really difficult to escape. In addition, various nobles and officials are always monitoring you. Don't leave the city, it is difficult to get close to the city gate. After all, Shouchun is different from Xianyang. Shouchun is
There are castles."
"But these are nothing to me."
"after all......"
"No matter how strict the nobles and local officials of Chu are, how can they still control officials from the imperial court?"
Hear the words.
Everyone's eyes lit up immediately.
Zhaozhou said hurriedly: "Do you think there are officials from Xianyang?"
A blush appeared on Liu Ji's face.
Said proudly:
"I, Liu Ji, have traveled around the world for half my life. I was a guest of Lord Xinling back then. But after Lord Xinling died, I actually did not return to Peixian County, but continued to travel abroad. During this period, I naturally met some people, such as
Celebrities such as Huang Shigong, Dongyuan Gong, Xia Huanggong, etc. also have good personal relationships."
"In the past, there was no shortage of correspondence."
"You should also know that people like Dong Yuan Gong, Xia Huang Gong and others have all joined Da Qin's Doctoral Academy. They have been in Da Qin for so long, so they naturally have some connections, so I can also use them."
"In recent letters, I unexpectedly learned that among the soldiers who came from Xianyang this time, there was a master of 2500. This person happened to be favored by Dongyuan Gong and others, and now Dongyuan Gong and others have left Xianyang.
, but I just happen to be able to borrow it for some personal gain."
"after all......"
"No matter how noble a scholar is, he still has to live."
"I have provided them with a lot of food and clothing over the years. It should be okay to ask them to do this for me. Now do you think I can save you?"
Liu Ji spoke unhurriedly while eating meat.
Qu Bo and others looked at each other with doubts in their eyes. After all, Liu Ji looked a bit unattractive, too slovenly and unkempt. Would such a person really know a celebrity?
and.
Duke Dong Yuan and Duke Xia Huang really know how to write letters to him?
