"Zi Jin? Where is the queen? Why isn't she in the palace?"
"Go back to the king, the queen left the palace the day before yesterday."
"Why didn't anyone tell me!"
"Back to the king, the queen's original words were: She can't compare to the king's government affairs. If the king cared, he wouldn't go back to the palace to rest for days and nights. If she bothered the king again, it would be her fault.
.”
"."
"It seems that I didn't come at the right time?"
Han Fei and Li Si turned around and saw a beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes walking slowly, followed by a masked man in black.
Han Fei and Li Si saluted repeatedly and said, "I have met my young master."
Shu Li walked closer and looked at the two of them, "Yes, you are getting more and more mature, but little Li, you are more calm."
We haven’t seen each other for many years, and since we have been living in the palace for the past few years, it’s time to go out and walk around. But I don’t know how many people in today’s world remember Princess Huaying back then.
"Thanks to the compliment from my young master, senior brother and I have finished saying goodbye." Li Si saluted.
"As for Xiao Feizi," Shuli turned her gaze.
Han Fei showed a smile that he thought was handsome.
"Still quite out of touch."
Han Fei:.
Thanks for the compliment.
Li Si smiled softly and then said, "Young master, I haven't seen you for several years. Is it just to relax that you came to Little Saint's Manor today?"
Although I knew that the young master's visit was not without purpose, it was difficult to ask him directly, so he could only ask in another way.
"I heard that you were leaving the army, so I came here to see you off." Shu Li replied directly.
Of course, it's not just because they are out of trouble, but more importantly, the plot about Tianxing is finally about to unfold.
However, Shu Li is a little unsure, because some of the things she did back then can be perfectly integrated into the subsequent plot of Tian Xing.
"But I'm just on my way. After I see you off, I have to take a boat to go south." Shuli suddenly acted impatient again, urging the two of them, and made a gesture to the people behind him.
Qinghe walked forward, holding a long wooden box in one hand and a small wooden box in the other, displaying them in front of Han Fei and Li Si.
"Lest you say I'm biased, here are two items for you to choose. If you happen to choose the same item, you can only decide the winner by yourself." Shu Li looked at the two of them and signaled that they should now
You can choose.
Han Fei looked at Li Si and said humbly, "Since I am the senior brother, it is polite to let the junior brother come first."
Li Si responded, "Senior brother just said that he would not show mercy because he comes from the same school, and now he is showing courtesy to me as a senior brother. What should I do?"
Shu Li raised her eyebrows. Are they going to start a tit-for-tat confrontation now? But she doesn't have that much time for them to chat. The Confucian disciple's talk is just a waste of time. She really has other things to do.
So Shu Li showed a kind smile and said softly, "If you give in too much, be careful not to give in."
Han Fei:!
"Ahem." Han Fei was a little frightened. He quickly took the small box and said, "That's it. I want the small one. Junior brother, you take the big one."
Shu Li watched Li Si take the long box with a dumbfounded look, and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
Inside the long box is the [Reverse Scale] that originally belonged to Han Fei. It was kept in the palace after being discovered by Shu Li, and this time it was brought out by the way.
Inside the small box is the [Guest Order] from the Prime Minister's Palace of the State of Qin, which is issued by Lu Buwei to those who come under his sect or whom he admires. Holding the [Guest Order] will have the opportunity to meet Lu Buwei.
In Shuli's expectation, she thought that according to the inertia of history, Han Fei would choose [Reverse Scale], and Li Si would get [Guest Order]. Things are really unpredictable.
"Now that you have made your choice, congratulations on your graduation."
"Thank you, Master." Han Fei and Li Si bowed down to salute. When they raised their bodies again, Shu Li was nowhere to be seen.
The two of them looked down at the congratulatory gift given by Shuli in their hands, and then looked at each other and smiled.
Sitting on the forum
"I've met my uncle." Xun Kuang saw Shuli arriving and quickly stood up and saluted.
Shuli waved her hand nonchalantly, then casually found a stone to sit down on, looking at the surrounding clouds and mist, as if she just came here to sit.
"Uncle Master, you haven't let go of what happened back then?" Xun Kuang looked at Shu Li's face and asked tentatively.
Back then, the entire residence of Lord Chang'an of Zhao State was brutally murdered overnight, and no one was spared. Lord Chang'an's body was not found, which shocked the whole world.
Perhaps ordinary people don't know who Lord Chang'an is, but they feel that they have heard of the name of the [Commercial Alliance], and the upper-class nobles certainly know who the founder of the [Commercial Alliance] is, and have even done transactions with him many times.
However, they never thought that Lord Chang'an would suddenly die unexpectedly.
Even, according to Xun Kuang's knowledge, this was not the only major event that happened that year. From the clues he learned from the farmers, he inferred that a shocking murderous intention broke out in a small settlement on the border of Qin State.
. Even if you look now, you can still see a deep and long ravine, which almost splits the entire Tunliu Town.
Although in recent years, both Zhao and Qin have chosen to block some events from that year, including Shuli's marriage to Qin, a series of things that happened that year are unknown to ordinary people, and those who know have chosen to remain silent.
Not many people today know exactly what happened back then.
As for Xun Kuang, he only pieced together incomplete events through a few fragmentary clues, so this was also a test.
Shuli glanced sideways at Xun Kuang.
Just this simple glance made the latter feel suffocated instantly.
Fortunately, Shuli just glanced at it and then looked away.
What happened back then was a knot in her heart that she had never let go of.
From the time he was born until that year, Shuli had always had a smooth life and had never encountered any decent obstacles, or even none at all.
She went to Guigu Valley, traveled around to study, saw the martial arts of different predecessors, got to know Lord Chang'an, founded the [Business Alliance], and supported Xiao Zhengzi's succession. It can be said that she has never made things complicated.
In other words, she never thought that two enemies who fought to the death would actually unite when they had indescribable common interests.
Sure enough, Shu Li still doesn't understand people's hearts, nor does he understand that huge interests will really make two people who are fighting against each other unanimously, and even attract greedy hyenas.
"Sorry." Shuli said softly.
When she thinks about what happened back then, she can't control herself.
Xun Kuang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The feeling of suffocation made it almost impossible to breathe. "Uncle Master, what is your trip?"
"I'm just passing by. Come take a look. Don't worry too much. I've already met Han Fei and Li Si just now. You taught them well." Shu Li praised them sincerely.
A Confucian man taught two great masters of law, which is not to say that he is not unworthy.
Xun Kuang raised his head and chuckled, "Everyone has their own path, I just help them find their way."
"Is it."
"I" Xun Kuang looked at Shu Li again, only to find that there was no human figure on the stone.
"Take care, uncle." Xun Kuang said softly while looking at the stone. Maybe he thought Shuli could hear it, or maybe he didn't care whether Shuli could hear it or not.
