"I don't have time to compete with others during the ceremony, so please go back."

The students who blocked the way refused directly, and they were also ordered to refuse all outsiders.

Bai Zhong said: "We came a long way just to see Jijiu. Did Jijiu tell you when he would be free? We can wait."

"If you don't leave, don't blame me for being rude!"

The student suddenly became angry and threatened in a cold voice.

Ying Shu hummed: "You're welcome? I want to see how you can be so rude!"

Clang!

As she said this, she unsheathed her sword and deliberately provoked a conflict. This was Bai Zhong's arrangement.

After what happened last night, I'm afraid it won't be easy to see Cao Qiudao, so I'll fight in outside the mountain gate and force him out.

"You are looking for death!"

Those students were still on guard and had bad tempers. When they saw Ying Shu dare to draw her sword, they immediately took action. However, their strength was not good enough and they were quickly defeated by Bai Zhong and Ying Shu together.

Bai Zhong strode inside and said, "Since you won't pass the news for me, I'll go in and see if the sacrificial wine is still willing to show up."

The students looked at each other and finally felt scared. They didn't dare to take action anymore. They could only let Bai Zhong and the others in, and raised their swords to keep watch. The movement here quickly alerted the others.

"You two, please wait a moment."

Tian Chong came over in a hurry. Someone attacked last night. Today someone came to Cao Qiudao to discuss swordsmanship. He would not believe it if he said there was no problem. He smiled and said: "You two came late. The wine sacrificer left the academy yesterday."

.”

He didn't chase people away directly, but responded politely.

Left yesterday?

Bai Zhong naturally didn't believe it. Cao Qiudao was defeated by him just last night, but he asked cooperatively: "Really?"

"Of course you are serious. If you two don't believe me, you can come with me."

Tian Chong brought people into the academy and came to the front yard of Jixia Academy.

The traces of the fight last night were still there, but the corpses, blood stains, etc. had all been taken care of. He also took Bai Zhong and the two of them through the entire Jixia Academy to prove that Cao Qiudao had really left.

"Did Cao Qiudao run away overnight? Or did he avoid me on purpose?"

Bai Zhong was thinking in his heart and said: "What a pity!"

Tian Chong pretended to be helpless and said: "You two came at the wrong time. The wine ceremony went to Liaodong. If you two can wait, you can stay in Jixia Academy and wait. I will arrange a room for you two."

"No need!"

Bai Zhong bowed, said goodbye, and left.

Watching Bai and Zhong go away, Tian Chong's smile quickly fell.

"One person was hit by a poisonous needle last night. There is no cure for this kind of poison outside, so he should be dead."

"The two people who came today used swords, and the two people who came last night used knives."

"What is their relationship with the two people last night?"

Tian Chong was thinking, but couldn't figure out the reason.

I just feel that it must be related.

At the foot of the mountain.

Bai Zhong said: "Cao Qiudao should really be gone."

Just now, he couldn't feel the aura of the master left in the academy.

It can be said that he was scared to leave overnight, but Tian Chong seemed to be explaining something when he said that Cao Qiudao went to Liaodong.

That place is where the remaining Yan Kingdom is located. Recently, the Yan Kingdom has cooperated with the Xiongnu to attract foreign tribes to invade the land of China. It seems to be related to Cao Qiudao.

"Shall we go to Liaodong?"

Ying Shu asked.

Bai Zhong thought for a while and said: "It's hard to tell whether Tian Chong's words are true or not. Whether Cao Qiudao went to Liaodong is still uncertain, but the matter of Yan State... I still want to go to Liaodong to see how the cooperation between Yan State and the Huns is going.

, Cao Qiudao will help Yan State kill the people of Heibingtai, which shows that they are also cooperating, and maybe Tian Chong is not lying."

"I listen to you!"

Ying Shu nodded.

The people from Heibingtai have not stationed in Qi State for the time being. It is not easy for them to find Cao Qiudao, and they don't even know where to find it.

Now that we have arrived in Linzi, Liaodong is not far away. Let's believe Tian Chong's words for the time being. If we really can't find anyone on this trip, we can also inquire about the situation of the Yan Kingdom and the Xiongnu.

——

Just when Baizhong went to Liaodong, Tian Chong left Jixia Academy and soon returned to Linzi.

As the son of Qi State, it was easy for Tian Chong to enter the palace, but when he came back today, he was not going to see the King of Qi, but to meet several generals who had actual military power in Qi State.

They had long been Tian Chong's people and had been bribed a long time ago. The plan Cao Qiudao wanted him to make was none other than to overthrow the King of Qi and start a rebellion and become the king himself.

After the rebellion is successful, Tian Chong will cooperate with the Yan State and the Xiongnu, borrowing the Xiongnu's troops to counterattack the Qin State and protect the Qi State. As for the consequences of the Xiongnu going south, he will also consider how to deal with it.

"Jijiu said that if he brought the Huns in and borrowed troops to defeat Qin, he would still have a way to drive them out."

Tian Chong looked at the generals around him and continued: "The swordsmanship of Jijiu is unparalleled in the world, and the method of driving away the Huns is also very easy. The most powerful of the Huns now are the people of the Touman tribe, and the borrowed troops are also

Touman, as long as we sacrifice wine and kill Touman Shanyu and others, the Huns will defeat themselves without attacking."

"The guard strength of the Chanyu of the Xiongnu is far inferior to that of the King of Qin. It is difficult to kill the King of Qin, but it is easy to kill the Chanyu of Man for offering wine."

They have no doubt about Cao Qiudao's strength and have seen it before.

One of the generals said: "After taking advantage of the Xiongnu, just kill them. Wouldn't it be very unkind?"

Tian Chong said indifferently: "There is no need to be kind when dealing with the Xiongnu. As long as we can defend Qi and repel Qin, it doesn't matter what means we use. Is it possible that you generals want to be Qin people?"

They shook their heads at the same time. Having been Qi people for so many years, they definitely did not want to be Qin people.

Tian Chong said: "Please, generals, help me defend Qi!"

"I'll do it!"

Another general said: "I don't care whether you are kind or not. I don't want to see the country destroyed and the family destroyed. Let's fight!"

With his start, other generals expressed support for Tian Chong.

Then they started to rebel.

These generals had military power and quickly gathered their troops, took control of the Linzi city tower, broke into the palace city, and captured all the ministers who had been appointed by Hou Sheng and other Qi King Jian.

Tian Chong led his troops and committed suicide in the main hall.

When King Jian of Qi received news of Tian Chong's rebellion, he quickly gathered his guards in the palace to fight back, but was quickly killed by Tian Chong.

The army of Qi State is already in Tian Chong's hands.

In order to rebel, he and Cao Qiudao had been planning for a long time, preparing everything, and just waiting for this day to come.

Seeing Tian Chong charging into the hall, Qi Wangjian asked angrily: "Why?"

"Because you are not suitable to be the King of Qi!"

Tian Chong responded coldly: "Uniting with the Xiongnu and counterattacking the Qin State is the only way for our Qi State to avoid being destroyed. What is your approach? I guessed it right. What you want to do is to wait for the Qin Army to come and surrender directly.

, right?”

King Jian of Qi had this plan. He had resisted before, but he couldn't win and it was impossible to win. He said helplessly: "For the sake of the people of Qi and no longer suffering from war, why not surrender?"

"That's just your personal opinion. None of us want to be a subjugated nation!"
