Chapter 4 Isolation and Helplessness

Ji Yanran, accompanied by Xiang Shaolong and Teng Yi, rode out of the pavilion.

Xiang Shaolong remembered Zhao Bali's invitation to them as guest teachers, and couldn't help but think that Lian Zhi must have received the same treatment during his lifetime, so he had the opportunity to get close to Zhao Zhi, which led to a short-term love.

Zhao Zhi didn't know whether he was weak or not. His first love was killed by others, but he fell in love with himself who killed her lover. However, because of Jing Jun's relationship, he did not dare to accept her love, but if it made her angry

But falling into Li Yuan's arms is an annoying thing.

Li Yuan will never be a compassionate person, this person is too selfish.

Returning to the lively downtown area, Teng Yi said: "I want to see them in the Tibetan Army Valley, but I may not be able to come back in time tonight."

Xiang Shaolong nodded in agreement and asked smoothly: "Have you sent anyone back to see dad?"

"Dad" is Lu Buwei's code name.

Teng Yi replied: "I went the day before yesterday." After confessing to Ji Yanran, he rushed towards the city gate. They were all given passage orders and could enter or exit the city gate at any time without any problem.

Ji Yanran wandered around and said coquettishly: "I want you to go shopping with me, will you agree?"

Xiang Shaolong happily agreed and rode back to the house first, then walked out of the house side by side and took a casual stroll.

After walking for a long time, Ji Yanran couldn't bear to eat. She was so surprised that no one was missing on the street, which made her very uncomfortable, forcing her to drag Xiang Shaolong and sneak back to the mansion where she used to live.

The owner, Liu Huasheng, a great scholar from Handan, was playing chess with Zou Yan. When they saw the two return, they were very happy.

Liu Huasheng and Zou Yan turned out to be old friends who had known each other for more than 30 years. When Ji Yanran was like a daughter, they all talked and laughed happily.

Zou Yan never had a chance to reminisce with Xiang Shaolong, so he asked Ji Yanran to take over the chess game for him. They walked into the quiet back garden with Xiang Shaolong and sighed: "Since King Ping moved eastward, there has been a situation where there are no dragons but no clowns."

For more than five hundred years, there have been continuous wars and disasters.

It’s not just the masses who are suffering, but thanks to the new saint like you, there is hope of ending the war.”

Now Xiang Shaolong no longer dares to treat this wise man’s theory of the Five Virtues with nonsense, because indeed without him, Xiang Shaolong, there would never have been Qin Shihuang who unified the six kingdoms. But he didn’t know how to answer him, so he could only remain silent.

.

Zou Yan was immersed in the broad historical perspective and said softly: "I know that Shaolong is a man who pursues peace, but if we want to obtain true peace, we can only achieve this goal through war. There is no other way.

, otherwise if the seven countries continue to fight like this, sooner or later the foreign nations that are eyeing the northwest will show off their ferocious power, invade the Central Plains, and destroy our civilization like locusts."

Xiang Shaolong was shocked. Zou Yan's words were like a wake-up call, reminding him of a problem that he had never thought about before. All this time, he had been deliberately avoiding participating in any war to siege cities and land. But he had never thought about the long-term pain.

It's better to take the pain short term and use war to bring peace to the earth. This is partly based on the psychology of being an outsider.

But the problem is that in fact he has become a part of this era, and he should naturally bear the responsibility for this era.

Even if the Qin State does not send troops to fight, the six countries will not let the Qin people go. This is simply an era of the jungle and the strong.

Instead of allowing the war to spread indefinitely and even lead to invasion by foreigners, it is better to use the strength of the Qin people to unify the world as soon as possible. If he leads the army in the war, at least the unnecessary killings can be minimized and the suffering of the people will also be reduced.

Much lighter.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel excited.

After Zou Yan looked at him intently for a while, he smiled and said: "The ever-changing world is always inseparable from the movement of the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, which take turns. Heaven is the five elements, and humans are also the five elements. Although the external functions are ever-changing, in the bones

It is still the same thing. Therefore, heaven and man interact with each other. Whenever there is an emerging force and the two virtues alternate, Fu Rui will be seen. Where the Fu Rui is, the master of the new era is. For example, during the reign of King Wen of Zhou, a red crow flew down with a pill in its hand.

Zhou She, developing the hegemony of Zhou Dynasty unification, is the auspicious occasion that comes at the right time."

Xiang Shaolong couldn't help but said: "But what kind of Fu Rui appears now?"

Zou Yan said happily: "Do you remember that I once told you about the appearance of the new star? Half a year ago, Shaolong left Zhao for Qin, and the star immediately disappeared without a trace. When I was puzzled, the position of Qin's territory on the sky map

Another new star, bigger and brighter, appeared, shining brightly in the night sky. Now I am sure that the one who unified the world must be from Qin, and is directly related to Shaolong."

Xiang Shaolong was stunned and speechless, and he no longer dared to despise this ancient astronomical authority.

Zou Yan put his hand on his shoulder and said sincerely: For the well-being of all people in the world, Shaolong, you must promote the hegemony of the Qin people, otherwise the new star may dim again. Don't care what others think of you, just hold on to your ideals

, try your best to live up to God's expectations of you. The unification of the world must come from you, I can say it for sure."

Xiang Shaolong felt excited, and only then did he understand how broad Zou Yan's mind was, full of compassion and enthusiasm.

His idea was based on the actual situation, unlike Confucius and Mencius who only talked about benevolence, righteousness and morality all day long, and the iron-clad facts pointed out that "the rites of Zhou are all in Lu" and the Lu country ended up with the hatred of national subjugation.

In this age of war, the only way to stop violence is with force.

Zou Yan said: "Yanran has always had this idea, hoping to help the Ming Lord unify the world and achieve the goal of ending the war."

Xiang Shaolong smiled bitterly in his heart, the road to achieve this goal is long and arduous, but without the Qin Dynasty, there would be no peace between the two Han Dynasties that followed, let alone a powerful China in the 21st century. Thinking of this,

I made up my mind to put aside the idea of ​​​​being alone and see if I could help Xiaopan.

At the same time, he also sighed secretly. For someone like him who regards war as a sin, it is not easy to change his mind all of a sudden.

At this time Ji Yanran and Liu Huasheng walked out side by side.

Zou Yan smiled and asked: "How is Teng losing this round?"

Ji Yanran said in surprise: "Liu Daru saw that Yanran had no intention of fighting, so he let her go."

Everyone laughed.

Liu Huasheng didn't know Xiang Shaolong's true identity, so he just thought he was Dong Kuang, a horse fool. After a few words of laughter, he and Zou Yan went back to continue fighting for dominance on the chessboard. Ji Yanran happily led Xiang Shaolong back to the small building where she was staying.

Two pretty maids opened the door to welcome them. Xiang Shaolong recognized them and felt warmly.

Ji Yanran took him upstairs and entered the room. After waving away the maid, she sat in his arms and gave him a passionate kiss.

Both of them felt a tingling sensation.

Ji Yanran pretended to be solemn and said: "Brother Dong, dare I ask when can I officially marry Yanran?"

Xiang Shaolong smiled and replied: "Since Miss Ji has asked this question, why don't you let me verify whether it is genuine or not?"

He reached out and caressed her breasts.

Ji Yanran fell softly into his arms and refused: "I'm serious, the worry I feel when I can't see you is really torturous."

Xiang Shaolong deeply felt her love for him, and sighed: "If everyone knew that I got you, and even lived with you, I would become unable to move. Then everyone would pay attention.

We, Yanran, are bound to lose your status and identity as a man and a woman, which will be greatly detrimental to my actions in Hanzhan this time."

Ji Yanran has been obsessed with love these days and has forgotten everything else. At this moment, Xiang Shaolong reminded her, thinking about it, and nodded: "Yanran was too negligent. She forgot that you were in danger. People understand now."

After the two discussed for a while, Yiyi broke up.

Xiang Shaolong walked to wait for the carriage and returned to the hotel.

Wu Guo stopped him at the entrance and said, "Mrs. Ya and Miss Zhi are waiting for Third Master. I will place them in Dongxuan and Xixuan respectively."

When Xiang Shaolong heard this, his head was as big as a fight. He didn't have any clue about the official matter, but the matter between men and women was entangled. The hero couldn't help but feel short of breath. After thinking for a moment, he decided to meet Zhao Zhi first.

When he entered the West Pavilion, Zhao Zhi sat in a corner obediently and quietly, staring blankly. He lowered his head when he heard the footsteps, not knowing whether to express that he was still annoyed with him or because he was ashamed that he had witnessed Ren Li Yuan's frivolity.

Xiang Shaolong came to sit down a few steps away from her and said, "Miss Zhi, don't you need to accompany Li Yuan?"

Zhao Zhi's face became extremely pale, he bit his skin and asked questions, and replied: "Master, Zhao Zhi came to invite Mr. Dong to the Samurai Hall."

Xiang Shaolong knew in his heart that she was just an excuse to come to him. Otherwise, how could Zhao Ba send a beautiful female disciple to date him alone? It was not in line with etiquette. He sighed and said, "How about two days later? Now I

My heart is very troubled."

Zhao Zhi still lowered his pretty face and said in a voice like a gnat: What do you have to worry about? Today you have shown your majesty and won the favor of a talented woman. I thought you wouldn't come back so early? "

Xiang Shaolong suddenly understood her intention to come to him. She wanted to show him that she had not obeyed Li Yuan. This was the biggest concession for this arrogant beauty. It also showed that she was serious about him.

The point where I can't control myself.

Zhao Zhi slowly raised his pretty face, looked at him sadly and said: You can hit me and scold me, because it is Zhao Zhi who is at fault."

Xiang Shaolong screamed in his heart, when a beauty is willing to be beaten and scolded by you, it is as if she is at your disposal. If she still refuses, she will have no other way to save her face except suicide. She can't help but have a headache and grow taller.

And rise.

Zhao Zhiran looked at him in panic.

Xiang Shaolong said: "Miss, sit here and I'll be back soon."

Leave in a hurry and go to Dongxuan.

Zhao Ya was looking out of the window at the garden. Under the sunset, the flowers and trees had a strong autumnal feel.

Hearing his footsteps, Zhao Ya's delicate body trembled slightly, turned around, looked at him with a smile and said, "Didn't Ji Cainiu invite your husband to stay overnight?"

Xiang Shaolong Ling snorted: "Do you think she is so casual? I haven't even had the chance to touch her little finger."

Zhao Ya knew that he was using the topic to insinuate that she had treated Li Yuan casually. She felt ashamed, lowered her head and sighed: "Now I am here to apologize to you, sir, are you willing to accept it?"

Xiang Shaolong complained in his heart that he really shouldn't take action today. In this era where martial arts is valued over literature, beauties all admire heroes with strong swordsmanship. With his temporary pleasure, although Li Yuan's prestige was defeated, it also made the two women admire him at the same time.

He collapsed, leaving him unable to cope.

When there were so many urgent things waiting for him, he still had time to deal with them.

Zhao Zhi was a little easier to deal with, but Zhao Ya made him very troubled and conflicted.

The biggest problem is that he still has some love for Zhao Ya and is still obsessed with her touching body, so it is easy to feel jealous. Basically, Zhao Ya is not a bad person, but his will is not strong enough. But he must let her be

It's impossible, and I don't dare to trust her anymore, but sometimes I can't bear to hurt her too much.

He sighed and said: "Madam, you are joking. You have not offended me. What do you have to apologize for?"

Zhao Ya gracefully walked towards him, and when her towering breasts almost touched him, she looked up at him and said softly, "Zhao Ya, why don't you stay here tonight?"

Seeing such seductive words coming out of her mouth and feeling her orchid breath, Xiang Shaolong seemed to have returned to the happy time of loving her and he didn't know where he was for a moment.

Seeing his confused look, Zhao Ya took a small step forward, her delicate body immediately pressed into his arms, her firm breasts pressed against him, and she said confusedly and infatuatedly: "Does sir really disdain Zhao Ya?"

Xiang Shaolong woke up with a shock, thinking to himself that it was lucky that his body was smeared with some love juice, otherwise Zhao Ya might have recognized him, stretched out his hand to grab her shoulders, mustered up his strong will, and hardened his heart.

She pushed away a little so as not to be overwhelmed by the amazing temptation of her breasts.

With a sharp look in his eyes, he laughed and said: "How could Madam have such an idea? As long as he is a normal man, he will not let Madam go."

Zhao Ya said shyly: "Then what are you waiting for?"

Seeing her showing off her carriage and horses, Xiang Shaolong was both excited and energetic. He cast his eyes wantonly on her beautiful breasts that kept rising and falling, and said with a wry smile: "If Li Yuan wants you to understand,

Can Madam refuse to stay with him tonight?"

No one understands Zhao Ya's dissolute, passionate and weak-willed character better than him. Even though she loved him deeply before, she still couldn't resist Qi Yu's temptation and fooled around with him. After breaking up with Zhao Mu, she is now willing to be like this again.

A treacherous traitor. So these words hit her hard.

As expected, Zhao Ya immediately turned pale, lowered her head and said, "Don't ask this kind of question, okay? It's hard for people to answer your question."

Xiang Shaolong got angry for no reason, turned around and left, Ling Ling said: Madam u, please go back to the house, Mr. Dong has guests to greet."

Zhao Ya sadly shouted: "Dong Kuang"

Xiang Shaolong's heart softened when he heard her cry out sadly, he stopped and said in a deep voice: "Madam, what else can you give me?"

Zhao Ya came up behind him, desperately hugged his waist, pressed against his tiger's back, and suddenly burst into tears, feeling indescribable desolation and pain.

Xiang Shaolong is not afraid of anything, but he is most afraid of women's tears. Thinking of his past kindness, he hugged her to him and hurriedly wiped her tears with his sleeves.

Unexpectedly, the more Zhao Ya cried, the harder she cried. She was so out of control that her clothes got all wet.

No matter how much Xiang Shaolong hated her, he could no longer bear to criticize her harshly at this moment.

After a while, Zhao Ya calmed down and gently left his arms. After looking at him with her red and swollen beautiful eyes, she whispered: "Zhao Ya is gone."

Xiang Shaolong was greatly shocked, and he vaguely felt that her disorder was due to the memory of him, Xiang Shaolong, so he felt sad and had no interest in other men. He didn't know what it felt like for a while.

He nodded and said: "I will take my wife to the gate."

Zhao Ya said with a dull expression: "Sir, there is no need to be polite." She turned around and left in a hurry.

Xiang Shaolong went back to the inner house to change his clothes, and at the same time asked someone to invite Zhao Zhi, who had been waiting for a long time, into the inner hall.

He was a little thirsty, so he asked someone to make two cups of hot tea, and sat across from Zhao Zhi in the hall to drink tea.

Zhao Zhi was a little flattered and peeked at him from time to time.

Xiang Shaolong felt hot in his heart, secretly thinking that if he wanted to possess her, she would definitely not refuse him. Just this tempting thought, he had to use a lot of rationality to barely restrain his inner impulse.

At this time, Zhao Zhi had a pitiful expression.

In fact, even he didn't understand why he didn't touch this beautiful woman. The reason just for Jing Jun didn't seem to be sufficient, because she obviously didn't fall in love with this boy.

Zhao Zhi said softly: "The traitor has entered the city."

Xiang Shaolong didn't realize it for a moment and said in confusion: "Traitor? Oh, are you talking about Tian Dan?"

Zhao Zhi lowered his head and said, "I'm really afraid Sister Rou will risk everything to assassinate him."

Xiang Shaolong was startled and said: "You must advise her not to act recklessly, otherwise she will regret it."

Zhao Zhixi said: "So you care about us."

Xiang Shaolong knew that he had revealed his true feelings unintentionally, so he smiled bitterly and said, "Dong has been caring about you from the beginning to the end."

Zhao Zhi's pretty face came back to life, he rolled his eyes at him and said, "But why do you always have to be so indifferent to others?"

Xiang Shaolong said angrily: "That night, I thought I could enjoy the wedding wine with Miss Zhi, but instead I was hit by a crossbow arrow and almost lost my life. How much more affection do I have for you?"

Zhao Zhi is a young girl. Hearing him speak so frankly, her pretty cheeks glowed, but her heart was filled with joy. She said nervously: "I'm sorry, it was just a misunderstanding. Can Zhao Zhi kowtow to you now and apologize?"

He actually knelt down.

Xiang Shaolong was so frightened that he walked over and supported her.

Zhao Zhiren grabbed his shoulders and forced him to sit up, gave him a very charming look with a blushing face, and said quietly: "Aren't you annoying me anymore?"

Xiang Shaolong felt her delicate body trembling like a startled bird in his hands, he felt compassion and said softly: "Why are you like this, girl?"

Zhao Zhi's eyes turned red and he said sadly: "Zhao Zhi met with misfortune when he was young, and his family was separated and his family died, and Sister Rou thought about revenge all day long, so her temper was sometimes not very good, which offended my husband."

Xiang Shaolong felt even more love and pity in his heart, secretly thinking that all her ruthless and harsh words were all forced by him. He couldn't help but feel guilty, he used his right hand to tease her pretty chin, and said with a smile: "Don't say anything to anyone.

Who am I sorry for? Anyway, from now on, how about erasing all the old grudges and new grudges?"

Zhao Zhiqiao's face was even more rosy, her long eyelashes were lowered, her beautiful eyes were half-covered, and she gently nodded in agreement on his hand. Who could not be moved by that kind of girlish beauty?

Xiang Shaolong couldn't help but move his mouth to hers and give her a light kiss on her scent.

Zhao Zhijiao's body shook violently, and even her ears turned red. Her reaction was even more intense than when Xiang Shaolong forcibly kissed her on horseback that day.

Xiang Shaolong was so impulsive that he almost pushed her down on the mat to have sex with her. However, there was still a trace of clarity on the altar, so he reluctantly let her go and asked: "Where did Tian Dan stay and how many people followed him into the city?"

When Zhao Zhi heard Tian Dan's name, Lingjing came over and said, "He has lived in the Zhao palace. I don't know how many followers he has, but usually no matter where he goes, there are always many relatives protecting him."

He added: "King Zhao will hold a banquet to welcome this traitor tonight, and envoys from various countries will be invited."

Xiang Shaolong immediately knew that he had no share in it, and now King Zhao was clearly bothering Li Yuan and wanted to deliberately silence him.

Zhao Zhi said a little shyly: "Sir, can you go and persuade Sister Rou? I think she will be willing to listen to your words."

No matter what, Xiang Shaolong could not let Shanrou take the risk of assassinating Tian Dan, so he stood up readily and said: "Okay, let's go see your sister right now."

Xiang Shaolong and Zhao Zhicai rode out of the hotel on horseback, approaching each other from a distance, shouting: "Master Dong, stay here!"

The two of them looked at each other in shock and saw that it was Pu Bu.

Xiang Shaolong took the opportunity to say to Zhao Zhi: "Go back home and wait for me first."

Zhao Zhirou nodded and left quietly.

Pu Bu came to his side and gasped: "Master Hou, please come and see Mr. Dong immediately."

Xiang Shaolong nodded in agreement and followed him to the Hou Mansion.

He wanted to reveal his identity to Pubu several times, but in the end he held back. Half a year ago and half a year later, people's mentality may have changed.

Xiang Shaolong met Zhao Mu in the secret conference room of the Hou Mansion.

The traitor looked solemn and said to each other: "Li Yanyan really gave birth to a prince."

It took Xiang Shaolong a long time to realize it, and he was shocked and shouted: "It's not good."

Zhao Mu clenched his fists and stamped his feet and said: "This little thief has really taken advantage of me this time. He can openly become the uncle of the state, but my father has to worry about letting the King of Chu know that he is his son. In this regard, my father is at a disadvantage.

What's more, Li Yanyan is just using her father without any affection. Now that she is in the back seat, it is even easier to control the King of Chu. Li Yuan can have the wind and rain in the Chu Kingdom. "

Xiang Shaolong thought of Li Yuan's personality and scheming, and said in shock: "Is your Majesty in danger?"

Zhao Mu said with a worried look: "You have also seen this. The biggest stumbling block for Li Yuan now is his father. If I were Li Yuan, the first person I have to deal with is the King of Chu. The king's physical condition has always been poor. As long as Li Yanyan seduces

If he were to attack once and for all, he would not last long. Once the King of Chu was gone, Li Yanyan and Li Yuan could justifiably control the Chu government through that little bastard. Dad was not prepared and thought that the two brothers and sisters were still at will.

With the chess pieces at his mercy, it would be very easy for the dog brothers and sisters to harm him."

Xiang Shaolong said calmly: "The only way is for me to pretend to be a horse thief and kill Li Yuan when he returns to China. Then everything will be clear."

Zhao Mu's face was filled with gloom and he didn't speak for a long time. Finally he breathed out and said, "I'm afraid it's not that easy. Li Yuan himself is very skilled in swordsmanship. There are nearly 500 family generals and attendants accompanying him this time. They are stronger than you, and they are more powerful than you."

Now that he has paid ten times the price, King Xiaocheng will definitely send troops to send him back to Chu, and the Wei people will not neglect to take care of him when he passes through Wei. If you act recklessly, you will not get any benefits."

Xiang Shaolong secretly smiled in his heart, since you, a traitor, said this, it is the best, and it saved me a lot of trouble.

Zhao Mu was obviously very distressed. After sighing, he said decisively: "Do you have any other ways to deal with it?"

Xiang Shaolong said deliberately: "Let me rush back to the Chu Kingdom immediately and explain my interests and risks to the Lord so that I can teach him how to take proper precautions."

Zhao Mu said displeasedly: "Then who will take care of the things here? Besides, dad often doesn't even listen to my own words, so how could he listen to you, an outsider?"

Xiang Shaolong had long known that he was a selfish person who only cared about self-interest and no regard for family ties, so he would never let him go. But such a gesture could make Zhao Mu trust him more. He said in a deep voice: "Then we must speed up

Take action, otherwise without Your Majesty's support, even if the Marquis ascends the throne, he will provoke interference from other countries."

Zhao Mu's face was deep and he frowned: "I want you to find out something for me."

Xiang Shaolong said: "Master Hou, please give me your instructions."

Zhao Mu said dejectedly: "King Xiaocheng has been much more indifferent to me in the past six months. For example, he has had secret discussions with Li Yuan several times recently, and today's meeting with Tian Dan did not allow me to participate. There must be something wrong."

Xiang Shaolong was also surprised by this, but without thinking deeply, he said casually: "Is it because Guo Kai is stirring up trouble?"

Zhao Mu said disdainfully: "Who is Guo Kai? He has the ability to drive a wedge between me and King Xiaocheng. What I suspect is Zhao Ya. Because I ruined her and Xiang Shaolong's good things, I have always held a grudge in my heart, but I can't think of any excuse."

It fell into her hands and made King Xiaocheng have no doubts about her."

Xiang Shaolong was sweating all over. He knew that he had thought a lot about it, but he had ignored one of the most important issues, which was that he had told Zhao Ya that Zhao Mu was a spy sent by the Chu people. Looking at the current situation, it was natural that Zhao Ya

He reported the matter to King Xiaocheng, which made King Xiaocheng suspicious. So he bribed Guo Kai from Zhao Mu and asked him to turn his gun against Zhao Mu. Maybe even Le Cheng betrayed Zhao Mu, otherwise how could King Xiaocheng

An Xin allowed Le Cheng to continue to control the military power of Handan City.

What was once a simple matter suddenly becomes extremely complicated.

For a minister like Zhao Mu who has held real power for a long time, even if King Zhao wanted to move him, it would not be possible overnight. It is necessary to reduce his power step by step, prevent him from participating in secrets, and alienate other ministers and generals who rely on him, otherwise

Then there would be chaos. Especially after the battle with the Wu family, Zhao could no longer withstand another blow.

Xiang Shaolong asked himself that if he swapped positions with King Xiaocheng, the best way would be to put aside his prejudices and try to transfer one of Lian Po or Li Mu back to Handan, then he would be sure of victory. Zhao Guo will have these two world-famous generals one day.

Anyone who wants to deal with the Zhao people will probably pay a heavy price.

However, one Li Mu and Lian Po were fighting against the Xiongnu in northern Xinjiang, and the other was fighting against the Yan people. It would be difficult for either of them to escape, otherwise Zhao Mu would have been doomed long ago.

It can be said that the day when any of Lian and Li returned to Handan was the moment when King Xiaocheng dealt with Zhao Mu.

His own situation is also very dangerous. Guo Kai is not just threatening, Zhao Mu is really someone who should not even get close to him, otherwise he will easily end up confiscating his family and exterminating his family, then he is really innocent.

The situation is more complicated than that. Li Yuan has been promoted to uncle, and his net worth has increased a hundred times in one day. King Xiaocheng also wants to see how he behaves. Who knows whether this foolish king will bear the pain and sacrifice himself as a horse breeder?

To please him? Thinking of this, it makes me even more headache.

Zhao Mu saw his solemn expression, flickering in and out, and thought he shared his sorrows, so he lowered his voice and said, "I think Zhao Ya is attracted to you. With your intelligence, you can definitely find out the secrets from her and look at her."

What flaw is there in me? If the matter cannot be rectified, we have no choice but to kill the faint king. As long as we can control Handan, we can deal with Li Mu and Lian Po calmly."

Xiang Shaolong was stunned.

Listening to the tone of this traitor, it seemed that he had a way of controlling the government and was not in a hurry to ascend the throne. His heart moved and he immediately thought of Queen Jing.

Zhao Mu not only knew how to use medicine, but also could enter and leave the palace at will. It was easy to get hold of this resentful woman. It was not difficult for her to work in cahoots with Zhao Mu and control the government.

Taking the opportunity, he asked: "If there is really an uprising, who in Handan will side with the Marquis?"

Zhao Mu hesitated for a moment and said: "The only people who can really help me are Le Cheng and a few ministers and generals who were promoted by me. Fortunately, you are here, and with my two thousand generals, it is not difficult to invade the palace."

, but this is just a last resort. If it had been before, it would have been easy for me to kill King Xiaocheng. I guarantee that no one will know that I did it afterwards. But now that he is on guard against me, it is not that easy."

Then he got excited and said: "Now you should know who Xiang Shaolong is."

Xiang Shaolong was surprised and nodded in agreement. He didn't know why he suddenly mentioned himself.

Zhao Mu said: "I just received a tip from the Qin State. Xiang Shaolong is leading his people here to take revenge. Later I will go to the palace to see King Xiaocheng and report the matter. Even if Xiang Shaolong is as treacherous as a ghost, he would never guess that Xianyang is actually there.

There is someone I exchange news with.”

Xiang Shaolong wanted to ask him who the informant was, but he suppressed his unwise impulse and pretended to be surprised: "What does Xiang Shaolong have to do with our affairs?"

Zhao Mu said: "The relationship is very big. You and Long Shan are both very similar in size to Xiang Shaolong. As long as you wear more wooden swords, you can pretend to be him and assassinate King Xiaocheng. If you can solve the problem of escape route and time,

, then everyone will think it was Xiang Shaolong who did something good afterwards, and we can get rid of our relationship."

Xiang Shaolong secretly said that he was in danger, but on the surface he said: "Your Majesty is really thoughtful. As long as King Xiaocheng leaves the palace and lets me know the time and place in advance, I will do it properly and guarantee not to stay."

Any clue."

Zhao Mu got excited and said: "From today on, if we don't have to, we will try not to meet each other. You should also be careful about Li Yuan. Not only does King Xiaocheng look at him differently now, but Tian Dan also left me alone after he became the uncle of the country."

Then get close to him. You may not know Tian Dan yet, this person is more powerful than Lord Xinling, and he is definitely not easy to deal with."

Xiang Shaolong's trip this time was really annoying.

In the fight for Lu Gong's secret records, he had long sensed that the Chu and Qi people had been colluding secretly, trying to carve up the three countries. Now Li Yuan has the opportunity to become the most powerful person in the Chu state, and Tian Dan has interests in winning over him.

Flattery. This also made his situation even more critical. If Li Yuan and Tian Dan put pressure on King Xiaocheng together, his life would be in danger at any time.

Is there any way to deal with this difficult and dangerous situation?

Zhao Mu repeatedly urged him to check with Zhao Ya before letting him leave.

Xiang Shaolong secretly sighed in his heart, thinking that he might not be able to get entangled with Zhao Ya anymore this time. Zhao Mu had set up wire networks in Handan. If he knew that he had never looked for Zhao Ya, he would definitely be suspicious.

At the same time, there is another hidden worry. If Zhao Ya leaks out that he arrested the Chu envoy who was in contact with Zhao Mu before he left Handan last time, and it gets into Zhao Mu's ears, with his shrewdness and prowess, he will definitely be able to see from it.

He thought that he had a problem. Then he thought of Guo Kai. He once said that he would visit the palace brothel with him, but he never fulfilled his promise. Maybe it was because Li Yuan became a new rich, so King Xiaocheng's attitude changed again. Guo Kai's tendency to follow the trend.

If you are a disciple, you will be lucky if you avoid him.

Suddenly, he felt that his advantage in Handan was lost and he became isolated and helpless, surrounded by enemies.
