Although he didn't see clearly who it was, the caution he cultivated three years ago told him that it was not a good thing for strangers to appear in the room.
It's possible that he will draw his sword and rush towards you in the next second.
"Qinghe?" Cheng Jiao called out tentatively. This was the person he called Shuli the most.
But there was no response for a long time.
"Kill him?" Cheng Jiao tentatively called out a name that he had just remembered in a few days. He was one of the people who participated in killing him three years ago.
But after a while, Cheng Jiao found that there was still no response.
So just as he was about to turn around and run away, he saw a man in black standing next to him.
Just by the fact that the other person is standing there, people will subconsciously feel that this is a murderous person, and they instinctively want to escape.
Cheng Jiao calmed down and looked at Gan Sha just looking at him quietly, then pointed to the room and said, "There is someone inside, please help me find out who he is."
"Qin Ambassador Li Si." He replied coldly like a killing machine.
Cheng Jiao raised her eyebrows.
It's actually Li Si? Then what are you afraid of?
So he opened the door again and walked in.
And the Gan Sha beside him disappeared without knowing when.
other side
Li Si, who was sitting quietly waiting for Shu Li and Cheng Jiao, was startled by the sound of the door suddenly opening and then closing.
I was still wondering who I saw when I looked up just now.
Not long after, the door was opened again.
At this time, Li Si immediately raised his head and looked at the door, seeing a handsomely dressed young man walking in with a smile on his face.
Without thinking much, Li Si immediately stood up and saluted, "Li Si, the envoy of Qin, has met the young master."
He asked Zhao Lei to clear it.
This room will never be used by the outside world, even [Wangshu Pavilion] in the world will not be used by the outside world.
So anyone who can enter the room at will at this time will definitely not be a guest.
At the same time, Li Si also noticed the jade finger on Cheng Jiao's left thumb, so he was more sure of Cheng Jiao's identity.
Cheng Jiao paused, but soon smiled softly, walked to her seat and sat down, "You are the envoy of Qin, and you represent my brother Wang. No need to be polite, just sit down."
"Thank you, sir."
Cheng Jiao looked at the unpacked teacups on the table and fell silent for a moment.
Shouldn't it be tidied up?
Cheng Jiao opened the lid of the teapot with a feeling, and when she saw the cold tea in the pot, she silently replaced the lid.
Li Si sat upright, acting like an excellent minister.
Cheng Jiao couldn't bear to ignore Li Si, so she said, "I heard that Mr. Li and Master Han Fei are from the same school?"
Li Si nodded slightly and said humbly, "Although I come from the same school as my senior brother, my senior brother Si Bi's talent is beyond comparison."
Cheng Jiao also nodded with deep understanding, "I have met Han Fei several times. To be honest, if I had not experienced his talent, I would have been deceived by his cynical appearance."
Li Si was slightly choked by Cheng Jiao's honesty, but then he agreed, "Senior brother is usually informal."
But this time, I just want to prove that my ability is no worse than that of my senior brother.
Cheng Yu, who originally disliked cold tea, suddenly brightened up and looked at the teacup in his hand.
This herbal tea seems to have a unique flavor.
"Master? Master!"
"Huh?" Cheng Xi heard Li Si calling him and raised his head to look at him, "What?"
"Sir, Si just asked where the queen went and why I haven't seen the queen yet."
Li Si was tasked with persuading Shuli to go back, which was also an important entrustment given by Lu Buwei.
Don't mess up the first time no matter what.
Speaking of this matter, Cheng Yu was a little speechless.
Shu Li left him alone to face Li Si, who might have some thoughts, and hid in the Chu Kingdom alone.
"Chu State?" Li Si looked puzzled.
Why did the queen go to Chu State?
"I have met the King of Chu." Shuli saluted with neither humility nor arrogance.
Her current identity is the messenger of the [Business Alliance], not the leader of the [Business Alliance].
"The [Business Alliance] is very close to me. This is a private banquet. No courtesy. Please take a seat." King Chu said this, but his eyes kept moving up and down Shuli.
Even though Shuli wears a veil, her striking beauty still cannot conceal her beauty under the veil.
Shu Li looked at the various sashimi on the table. No, it should be called fish meat at this time.
I don’t know if it’s a freshwater fish or a saltwater fish, and I’m not afraid of parasite infection.
Obviously there are records of eating sashimi as early as the Zhou Dynasty, but why did it become synonymous with Neon Country in later generations?
King Chu kept watching Shu Li just staring at the food without moving his chopsticks, so he asked, "Are you dissatisfied with the food? You can say whatever you want."
Shu Li looked at the unidentified fish, raised her head and looked at the King of Chu, and said with a hint of apology, "I hope the King of Chu will forgive me. My little girl is still hungry and has no appetite."
"That's it." King Chu nodded.
He wasn't hungry anyway, he just wanted to see Shu Li more.
Although he successfully ascended the throne and became the King of Chu, Li Yuan controlled all major and minor affairs in the court, even more so than Chunshenjun Huang Xie.
He is more like a puppet sitting on the throne. If it were not necessary for a King of Chu, he might not be able to sit in that position.
Moreover, since his birth, rumors about his life experience have never stopped.
There is even a rumor among the people today that the current King of Chu is no more than the illegitimate son of Lord Chun Shen and is not worthy of being the King of Chu at all. He should welcome Lord Changping of Qin as the king.
Whenever he heard these messages, King Chu's face would become very scary.
He is no better than the traitor Qi who was born in Qin and served Qin for so many years.
I thought that joining forces with Li Yuan to kill Chun Shenjun would stop these rumors spreading everywhere.
But he didn't want it to become more and more serious now. Everyone said that he got rid of Chun Shenjun in order to kill people and silence him, and to hide the secret that he was Chunshen Jun's son.
There was even a message saying that he joined forces with Chun Shenjun to kill his father for the throne, and finally killed him on the pretext that Chun Shenjun was plotting.
When he was a child, when he heard these rumors, he even killed the servant who told him to hear them, and angrily went to his mother to verify them.
His mother said: He is the son of the King of Chu, possesses the noble bloodline of Zhuanxu Gaoyang, and is born with the fate of the King of Chu.
However, after becoming the King of Chu for so many years, not many nobles, big and small, came to pay homage!
Do you really think that he, the King of Chu, will not be angry?
After his uncle finished cleaning up the rebellious ministers in the court, he summoned an army to punish those disobedient ministers.
So when he learned that the [Business Alliance] sent people to congratulate him with gifts and came to pay homage to him, he was as happy as a three-year-old child.
Shuli remained silent.
Judging from the time, those rumors should have spread throughout Chu State.
As early as when Shuli set out, he ordered the merchants in the Chu Kingdom to spread rumors that the Chu King's bloodline was unhealthy.
Now it seems that the power of public opinion is quite good.
Some old nobles began to make some moves, trying to clean up the bloodline of King Chu and bring order to the chaos.
