The city of Qufu in the Chu region has the same name as Qufu in the Zhao region, but it is different from that in the Zhao region. Qufu in the Chu region was once the capital of the Lu State. Twenty-nine years ago, it was destroyed by King Kaolie of Chu.
At the bustling city gate of Qufu, a carriage slowly drove into Qufu City after being inspected by Chu soldiers.
After a while.
The carriage drove all the way through the busy streets to a mansion, and then slowly stopped.
Corpse Yan opened the curtain from the carriage. After stepping out of the carriage, he came to the door of the mansion and knocked on the door. After the servant in the mansion opened the door and asked, what did Corpse Yan say. After waiting for a while, he was called again.
The servant who came to the gate invited him in.
"This happened to the Wei State, and the King of Chu was unwilling to send troops!"
An old man, nearly fifty years old, was walking in the yard with a sad look on his face.
"Old Leng, the Wei State is in the situation it is in today, and it is all its own fault. Qin destroyed Han and Zhao. The Wei State should not have just sat back and watched its demise! Now it is really retribution."
Xi Yan followed Jing Leng and shook his head slightly. Compared with those who put their faults on others, Xi Yan's biggest advantage is to reflect on himself. Perhaps this is why Xi Yan is so young but has been criticized by his grandfather, father and even his clan members.
of importance.
Jing Leng glanced sideways at Xiyan.
"No~!"
Jing Ling raised his hand to stroke his beard, came to the pavilion, and looked at the small fish swimming faintly in the pool outside the pavilion under the scorching sun.
"Everyone didn't know this time that Qin General Bai Yan would actually attack Daliang with water. Looking at Daliang Gucheng, in everyone's eyes, even if the Qin State sent 200,000 troops, they would not be able to enter the city within three years!
I had previously thought that when Qin was tired, I would advise the King of Chu to send troops, but I never thought that Bai Yan would
Jing Leng sighed helplessly. As a branch of the Jing family, Jing Leng had some knowledge of the plans of the Shouchun Palace. He also understood the goals of Xiang Yan and Jing Qi.
When Qin attacks Wei, Chu can sit on the sidelines and watch. When Chu's civil strife is resolved and Qin and Wei lose their vitality, they can either send troops to aid Wei or send troops to annex Wei. Both can benefit and enjoy the results.
However, despite all calculations, Qin general Bai Yan failed to plan his attack with water and dug a canal leading to Honggou and Zhuhe River.
"Qin General Bai Yan, this son is extraordinary! He has the style of his ancestors."
As Jing Leng thought about it, worry appeared on his face. Even in the past thirty years, Jing Leng still had not forgotten how scared the Six Nations were when they faced Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an of the Qin State. Bai Qi was victorious in every battle.
When I was young, I saw with my own eyes how Qin Wu'an Lord Bai Qi conquered Chu step by step, and how he fought in Changping and caused countless casualties to Zhao.
As for Bai Yan, a descendant of the Bai family who is now young, looking at his deeds, Jing Leng can increasingly feel from him that he once again felt the oppression that Qin had brought to the world when it had Bai Qi.
How wonderful it would be if Bai Yan did not lead the army to attack Wei this time!
The Qin State will definitely suffer huge casualties in Daliang City, and the Qin State's top minister, Yao Jia, is not in the Chu State at this time.
"I don't know, Mr. Leng."
When Xi Yan heard Jing Leng's emotion, he looked at Jing Ling with a complex expression, raised his hand, and saluted Jing Ling.
Then, under Jing Leng's confused gaze, Xi Yan told Bai Yan's story.
"Bai Yan is not a descendant of the Bai family!"
Xiyan said.
When Jing Leng heard this, his eyes were a little confused, and he looked at Xiyan with a frown, not knowing what Xiyan meant.
"Bai Yan, Qi Renye!"
Xiyan continued.
No matter how many times he said it, every time Xie Yan said this, he couldn't stop his heart from wandering. In his daze, Xie Yan didn't understand why Qi people's Bai Yan was not in Qi, but in Qin, and
He made great military exploits in the Qin State and became famous all over the world.
"What? Qi Ren?"
When Jing Leng heard what Xi Yan said, his pupils shrank and his whole body was shocked. Then he stared at Xi Yan in disbelief.
Is Bai Yan from Qi?
How can this be!!!
Looking at Corpse Weir, Jing Leng looked suspicious, wondering if Corpse Weir had heard rumors somewhere.
"Mr. Ling, this matter is absolutely true. Not to mention that everyone in Daliang City and the Qin Army already knows it."
Xi Yan said to Jing Ling, and then told what happened in Daliang City, and also told Jing Ling about how Uncle Bai Yan was humiliated by King Wei later.
"This time Corpse Yan went to Qi State because of this incident!"
After finishing speaking, Xiyan looked at Jingling.
At this moment, Jing Leng didn't have the intention to notice Xi Yan's gaze. After hearing the whole story, Jing Leng's heart was already full of horror. Jing Leng had never thought about the Qin general who made him feel like Bai Qi, and the person who made Yue Yue
Bai Yan, who the Xiongnu did not dare to go south to herd, turned out to be
Qi people!!!
"Do you know its origin?"
Jing Leng waited for a long time before he could calm down. After calming down, the first thing he did was to ask Corpse Weir if he knew its origin.
Seeing Xie Yan shaking his head, Jing Leng looked at the pool outside the pavilion.
"The Qi State has never heard of anyone with the surname Bai. With Bai Yan's ability and unusual origins, and hiding his identity, he used the surname Bai to deceive others. When Boyan goes to the Qi State, he can borrow the corpse and farm it.
I am an acquaintance, and I am looking for Tian Ding’s help to find out his origins!”
Jing Ling turned around and told Corpse Yan.
After all, being older and more experienced, Jing Leng was keenly aware that there must be something fishy about Bai Yan's origins almost immediately. As long as he went to Tian Mansion based on this and asked Tian Ding to use his contacts to find it, it would not be difficult to find it.
"Thank you, Mr. Leng!"
When Xi Yan heard Jing Leng's words, he suddenly had an epiphany. When he was in Daliang, he saw the Qin army approaching the city, saw the King of Wei being fatuous, and watched one thing happen after another without being able to do anything about it. Xi Yan had never noticed this detail.
After being prompted by Mr. Leng, Xiyan immediately realized that Bai Yan was from Qi and was related to the Bai family, so he was given the surname Bai. This connection was the key to finding Bai Yan's origin.
"Sir! News has come that the person who led Qi's troops and horses to Yangguan in Qi State was General Qi Cheng of Qi State. His lieutenants include General Wuhe, General Yangsu, and General Tian Sui."
A servant hurried to the pavilion and reported to Jing Leng.
Jing Leng nodded when he heard this.
"Boyan and Tian Sui are old friends. During this trip, you can go to Yangguan to look for Tian Sui!"
Jing Leng looked at Xiyan and thought of something, so he asked his servants to call Jing Banyan over.
Xi Yan saluted Jing Ling, indicating that he would remember Jing Ling's instructions.
After a while.
A beautiful woman about seventeen or eighteen years old followed the servants to the pavilion and paid homage to Jing Leng. When she saw the corpse weir beside her, a hint of shame appeared on her pretty face.
"I had planned to marry your Shi family before. When Bo Yan arrived, I promised Ban Yan to Bo Yan. When Bo Yan went to Qi State, he took Ban Yan with him. Where is Brother Cheng?
I will find a way to inform you via letter."
Jing Leng looked at his granddaughter, then looked at Corpse Weir, and spoke directly.
Regarding this boy from the Shi family, Jing Leng had already had the intention of getting married in his heart a long time ago. It just so happened that the Wei Kingdom was in great trouble, so to show his sincerity, Jing Leng took this opportunity to speak.
After all, if it had been in the past, perhaps the Shi family would have considered it carefully. After all, Shi Cheng was the prime minister of the Wei State, and Shi Yan was exceptionally good, so he would have considered it again and again when it came to getting married. But now, he Jing Leng has given him timely help.
, which is enough to show the intention and cultivation.
"this"
Xi Yan did not expect to encounter such a thing, but after just two breaths, Xi Yan raised his hand and saluted Jing Leng.
"Thank you, Mr. Leng!"
Corpse Weir did not refuse.
Jing Leng is a branch of the Jing family. Here in Qufu City, the Jing family is very powerful and well-connected. Moreover, Jing Banyan, who is standing next to him, is indeed a beauty. Now that the Shi family is experiencing sudden changes, if there is a Qufu Jing family
Now, the situation at the Corpse House will be much safer.
Thinking of this, Xi Yan turned his head and looked at Jing Banyan, who was bowing his head beside him.
The next day.
Because of the help of the Qu Ji Jing family, not only did Xie Yan have no trouble leaving the city, he was accompanied all the way by his attendants and maids, and there was a box of gold placed in a carriage filled with cloth and clothes.
As Qudii goes to Yangguan, it is the road to Linzi, so there are often merchants, envoys, and people going back and forth. Not only do you not need to worry about bandits along the way, but the road is much smoother and faster.
It was originally a five-day journey, but when Jing Leng ordered someone to go to Yangguan in advance to deliver the news, at sunset on the third day, Xiyan saw Tian Sui leading the cavalry waiting on the official road beside the Zishui River.
The carriage slowly stopped.
After Xiyan got off the carriage and saw Tian Sui, he could no longer hold back the excitement in his heart.
"Brother Zhong Sui!"
Corpse Yan stepped forward and saluted Tian Suiji.
"Brother Boyan!"
When Tian Sui saw Corpse Yan, he also bowed his hands in greeting, but compared to Corpse Yan's excitement, Tian Sui looked guilty at the moment.
At this time, Tian Sui also saw Jing Banyan coming down from the carriage. Looking at Jing Banyan, Tian Sui was a little surprised.
"Brother Zhongsuo, this is my wife, named Banyan! The daughter of the Qudi Jing family!"
Shiyan introduced it to Tian Sui.
"My little girl, Ban Yan, pays homage to General Tian Sui!"
After the introduction to Shiyan, Jing Banyan took the lead in compiling the greetings. He glanced at Tian Sui with beautiful eyes. Even a woman couldn't help but say in her heart that he is such a handsome man. However, after becoming Shiyan's wife,
No matter how handsome Tian Sui is, the scenery is half smoked and there is no trace of thoughts.
Beside the war horse, Tian Sui returned the salute to Jing Banyan. After the salute, he looked at Corpse Weir and gestured to chat with him for a few words.
"We had a hasty farewell before, it was still Handan time!"
After Tian Sui handed over the war horse to his confidant, he walked side by side with Shiyan and said with some emotion on his face.
Shiyan nodded. The last time we parted, it was indeed in Handan. At that time, he heard that something happened in Zhongmou City, so he returned to Daliang of Wei State in advance. He learned about what happened next from the news.
Looking back on that time now, Xi Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly. He and Tian Sui never dreamed that Xu Zixiao was actually Bai Yan.
"Before my father returned to Qi from Daliang, he mentioned Boyan and praised him highly for his talent."
Tian Sui whispered softly, looking at the sky in the distance. It was getting dark, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.
"Previously, Yan was in Daliang, where he met his uncle and was taught by his uncle. Yan gained a lot."
As Xi Yan spoke, he noticed the look on Tian Sui's side face from the corner of his eye and stopped.
When Tian Sui noticed that Corpse Yan had stopped, he turned around and looked at Corpse Yan. Before he could speak, he saw Corpse Yan raising his hand to salute.
"Brother Zhongsui, if you have something in your heart, please tell Yan directly!"
Xiyan said.
In Shiyan's eyes, Tian Sui looked at the Zishui River aside, hesitated for a long time, and then turned back to look at Shiyan.
"My father and all the officials advised the King of Qi. The King of Qi has always been hesitant. Although there is a large army of Qi in Yangguan this time, with the character of the general Qi Cheng, brother Xiyan, if he mentions sending troops to rescue Daliang,
I may be disappointed, and Tian Sui alone may not be able to convince the general."
Tian Sui hesitated for a while and finally spoke out about the current situation.
As a good friend and a general of Qi, Tian Sui supported sending troops to rescue Daliang. After all, Daliang fell and Wei fell, and there was no longer any distance between Qi and Qin.
However, the old Qi Cheng had a calm and stable temperament. Without the order of the King of Qi, he would never send troops without permission. Wu He was still a person who was promoted after victory. In this way, he would have no chance to convince others.
General Qi Cheng.
Mentioning this matter, Tian Sui, as a good friend of Shiyan, felt very guilty.
Daliang City is now surrounded by the Qin army. His good friend Shiyan has come here in person. However, he has a large army of Qi under his command, but he cannot send troops to relieve the siege. Instead, he stays at the border of Qi. How can Tian Sui watch Shiyan?
, no guilt in my heart.
"I see!"
When Shiyan heard Tian Sui's words, even though he was prepared from the beginning, he still couldn't help showing a little disappointment on his face.
"Brother Zhongsuo, there is no need to blame yourself. My uncle can write to all the officials to request troops for Wei. Shiyan is already grateful."
Shiyan took a deep breath. Others didn't know Tian Sui's character, but Xi Yan knew about it, so Xi Yan would not blame Tian Sui in his heart.
After raising his hand to salute Tian Sui, Xi Yan looked at Tian Sui.
"Besides, Yan came here this time not to see the King of Qi and request Qi to send troops, but for another matter."
Xiyan said.
Regardless of whether it was the Corpse Weir, the corpse of their father, or the corpse of their grandfather, they all knew that if the King of Qi planned to send troops, he would have already sent troops when the envoys of Wei State went to ask for help, not to mention that there were so many people in the court and the public of Qi State.
, wrote a letter admonishing the King of Qi to send troops.
Therefore, Xiyan had no intention of meeting King Qi in the first place. Meeting King Qi was useless. If he wanted to save Daliang, he still had to find a way from Bai Yan.
"another thing?"
When Tian Sui heard what Xi Yan said, he looked at Xi Yan with confusion. In Tian Sui's eyes, it was hard to think of anything more important than Xi Yan's meeting with King Qi to request reinforcements.
"Bai Yan is from Qi!"
Shiyan looked at Tian Sui's confused eyes and said.
Tian Sui didn't react at first. Who is Qi Ren? Who is Bai Yan? Now that Daliang is in danger, how can Xiyan still care about others?
next moment,
After Tian Sui reacted, he looked at Xiyan blankly, his whole body frozen on the spot, his eyes full of disbelief.
Bai Yan is from Qi???
For a moment, as this idea came to his mind, Tian Sui's first reaction was disbelief, and then he felt ridiculous. How could Bai Yan be a Qi Ren? That Bai Yan was a descendant of the Bai family in Pingyang, the queen of the famous Bai Qi.
.
"Qi Ren?"
However, when looking at the serious look on Xiyan's face in front of him, Tian Sui knew that Xiyan's character would never take the trouble to rush to Qi State and make a joke about it when Wei State was besieged.
But Bai Yan is from Qi!
This incident made it difficult for Tian Sui to accept that the famous Bai Yan was actually from Qi!!!
Also, if Bai Yan was really from Qi, how could he help Qin?
Isn't it good to help Qi State and help his father? If Bai Yan is really from Qi State, as long as he helps Qi State, let alone the people of Qi State, they will be grateful to Bai Yan, even their Tianfu.
Thinking of this, Tian Sui suddenly thought of something, his pupils were startled, and his eyes gradually widened, and his whole person was stagnant in place.
Tian Sui remembered that when he was at home in Linzi, he, his brother, his father, and Tian Xian asked his younger sister why Bai Yan, who was deeply trusted by Ying Zheng, would save Tian Xian because of her.
Qi people!
Bai Yan is from Qi!
If Bai Yan is really from the same family, it means that the younger sister has known Bai Yan a long time ago!!!
This can also explain why Bai Yan, a general of the Qin State, would save Tian Xian!
As this idea, or guess, came to mind, as Tian Feiyan's brother, Tian Sui had goosebumps all over his body at this moment, electric current flashed through his head, and his scalp was numb.
The younger sister has actually known Bai Yan for a long time! And the three brothers and even their father don't know about this.
"Little sister, little sister"
Tian Sui looked shocked and shook his head slightly. He recalled the scenes when his little sister heard Bai Yan in the past, and his heart was filled with trance. Ever since he was a child, Tian Sui discovered for the first time that he never understood his little sister.
"This time Yan wants to ask the King of Qi to send an envoy to ask Bai Yan to return to Qi. As long as Bai Yan returns to Qi, Wei will not be destroyed."
The sound of Corpse Weir sounded, and Tian Sui came back to his senses in a daze. He looked up at Corpse Weir and nodded slowly.
Bai Yan is from Qi, and it is very likely that the younger sister has known Bai Yan for a long time. This information is too big, and Tian Sui has a hard time adapting to it. After all, the world-famous descendant of the Bai family, Qin general Bai Yan, suddenly disappeared.
Anyone from Qi would be in a daze, let alone Tian Sui, who had always advocated resistance to Qin.
"Okay, I will send someone immediately, no, I will go back to Linzi with Bo Yan tomorrow in person and tell my father about this matter. If Bai Yan is really from Qi, the King of Qi will definitely try every means to get Bai Yan back to Qi!
"
Tian Sui said to the corpse weir.
Tian Sui can still guarantee this matter. Tian Sui knows his father better than anyone else. Not only his father, Tian Sui knows that even King Qi will be overjoyed when he learns about this matter. Although he has never seen Bai Yan,
However, Tian Sui had to admit that Bai Yan's ability to lead troops was a rare example of a famous general in the world.
Looking at Jing Banyan next to Shiyan, Tian Sui could not have wished that he would have taken Xiyan with him immediately and rode all night to meet his father in Linzi as soon as possible if it were not for him.
"One more thing!"
Xiyan said suddenly.
When Tian Sui heard this, he was still in a daze, and he became confused again, what else is going on?
"Go back to the carriage first!"
Xi Yan did not rush to tell Tian Sui, but asked his wife Jing Banyan to go back to the carriage and wait. Then he looked at Tian Sui and the Qi Qi around him.
"Everyone stand down!"
When Tian Sui saw this, he naturally understood what Corpse Weir meant, so he ordered his cronies to leave.
"promise!"
"promise!!"
Upon hearing Tian Sui's order, a dozen or so close confidants around Tian Sui led their horses away, leaving only Tian Sui and Shiyan alone.
Beside the Zishui River.
Tian Sui, who was standing in the official road, looked at the corpse weir curiously after all the close guards had retreated.
Bai Yan is a member of Qi, but Shi Yan is so vigilant. Is there anything else that is more important than Bai Yan being a member of Qi? Even outsiders cannot know about it.
"Bai Yan is not only a Qi person"
Under Tian Sui's doubtful gaze, Xi Yan looked around, and after making sure there was no one there, he looked at Tian Sui.
"It's still the Xu Zixiao that you and I have met before!"
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the two of them, and Tian Sui stood there motionless with a look of confusion on his face, accompanied by the breeze on the riverside.
As mentioned earlier, the participants, Shiyan, did not dare to let those things get out, and Tian Sui did the same, so there would be things that happened later.
