Back in the house, Baili He saw that his hands were empty. She blushed and rummaged through his sleeves and arms, but found nothing interesting. She couldn't help but smiled and poked his forehead with her jade finger and said, "Nothing found?"
Let me see what else you can do to show off to me, just wait for me to take your life!"
He Ran said disdainfully: "Do you think I'm really looking for those things? Hey, this general is as brave as any woman, so why should I use foreign objects to deal with you?"
Baili He giggled at his "unbecoming wife" and asked, "Then what did you do?"
He Ran whispered: "Didn't you see the guard wink at me when he was delivering tea just now? I went out to see. It was Zhao Zhong who sent someone to find out the news."
Baili He's expression changed immediately, and she asked nervously: "Are you asking me about serving you?"
He Ran nodded.
"You...how did you answer?" Baili He held his arm tightly.
He Ran pursed his lips and said, "Madam, you have to give me some reward before asking. My mouth is dry from what I said to that person."
Seeing him like this, Baili He felt relieved a little, glared at him angrily and said, "I'm so worried, and you're still teasing me!" Then she leaned forward and kissed him with her cold mouth.
"Nothing else?" He Ran asked, blinking.
Baili He said anxiously and hatefully: "Speak quickly, I have many ways to reward you. I can do whatever you want. You want to kill me!"
He Ran then put her in his arms and whispered, "I'm telling him, it's enough to have my wife here by my side."
Baili He was overjoyed, hooked his neck and kissed him fiercely, then scolded: "You're already thirsty after just saying this?!"
"Although it's only one sentence, don't you think it's worth a thousand words, madam?"
Baili He was in a happy mood and said in a disgusting voice: "I will give you all the rewards one by one!"
He Ran played this trick with her to stabilize her first. Although it can be seen from her words and deeds that she is sincere towards him now, who dares to guess the woman's heart accurately and let her see that she can survive?
Even if she still suspected that he had betrayed her, she would probably not act impulsively. At this time, there was a dull pain in his abdomen. Fortunately, the pain passed quickly, as if it was a warning to him, and he couldn't help but feel happy.
I smiled bitterly in my heart, the ghost of Princess Jingxian was really entangled with me. Thinking of the princess who was cooked because of me, I couldn't help but feel sad. At the same time, I had a strong hatred for the cruel Prince Xiping, and I found the root of my abdominal pain.
The account will be charged to him.
After waiting for two days, Zhao Zhong came.
He Ran was afraid that he would reveal his identity in front of Baili He, so he met him in the front hall. Zhao Zhong came to deliver the oral instructions of King Zhao.
After seeing off Zhao Zhong, He Ran did not return to the inner courtyard, but took a leisurely walk in the garden. Zhao Min politely rejected his request on the grounds that the journey was far away and his whereabouts were difficult to determine. His words were very polite.
To his surprise, Zhao Min said that he would return to Dingyang in about ten days, and asked him to wait patiently before returning home.
According to He Ran's previous prediction, Zhao Min's trip would take a month no matter what. It would be best if he could delay himself until he could no longer afford to wait and return to Yi State. His previous guess was that Zhao Min saw that Yi State wanted to form an alliance with a foreign country.
, he must have sent envoys to Fan State immediately, hoping to form an alliance with Fan State first. In that case, the longer Zhao Min delays himself in Dingyang, the better, and Zhao's envoys will have plenty of time to lobby Fan Wang and leave the city.
Hunting is a good strategy, and it can be used to delay it for a while, but why did he say he would be back in about ten days? He Ran counted the days with his fingers and frowned slightly, even if the envoys of Zhao State were rushing forward.
He was on the road and traveled for more than ten days before he could see King Fan. Could it be that Zhao Min was fully confident of reaching an alliance with King Fan, so he dared to let the people of Yi go to see King Fan without waiting for the envoy to come back to report the victory? Or was it Zhao Min who had done it earlier?
I just thought of forming an alliance with the foreign countries. By chance, the envoys sent will be back within a few days? Or...
He Ran thought about it and his heart suddenly sank. Could it be that the emissary he sent to Fan State was captured at the border of Zhao State? If that was the case, it would be terrible. Zhao Min dragged him here and he would probably mobilize troops to prepare.
The raid on the Yi Kingdom was over, and he repeatedly calculated the emissary's itinerary. He relaxed a little, and secretly prayed in his heart that this brother would not be too efficient. If he could get the letter from King Fan smoothly, it would be smooth and smooth.
Li ran all the way back, and was caught by the Zhao people at the border. Then he would never want to return to Yi State again. This small life would be enough if he didn't say it was explained here.
Walking to a pool of water, he called Hong An behind him to his side and asked in a low voice: "Is there no news from the emissary?"
Hong'an also lowered his voice and said: "It's been half an hour since we sent the people asking for information. They should be back soon."
He Ran nodded lightly and warned: "You must be careful again and again, don't let Zhao people follow you. It's a small matter to expose Fei Ge's secret now. If the news passed on falls into the hands of Zhao people, it won't be just us.
It’s a matter of life and death.”
Hong An replied confidently: "Don't worry, military advisor. Brother Su's Yibaozhai has more than one store in Dingyang. The brothers take turns going out to visit this store today and that store tomorrow. Even if Zhao Ren is following behind, he will not
What doubts could arise? The Feige site was built here the earliest. There will be no problem with the communication with Yibaozhai. Even if something goes wrong, the news will be spread by word of mouth. These brothers are loyal to the death and were caught.
I will never reveal even a word."
He Ran started walking with a blank look again, still thinking about why Zhao Min came back so soon? He calculated that Zhao Min would send an envoy to Fan Bang, but what he didn't calculate was that Jing Huan had already understood the relationship between Fan Bang's princess.
He also planned a strategy for Zhao Min to marry the princess of Fanbang.
Zhao Min listened to Jing Huan's analysis of the marriage proposal and felt that it was very likely that King Fan would agree to the marriage, so he decided to return to Dingyang in ten days. Why didn't Zhao Min want to delay it for a few more days by hunting?
Ah, he was counting the days every day, and at the same time estimating the limit of He Ran's endurance. In fact, he didn't dare to go far at all, and sent the imperial guards to hunt in a bluff, while he secretly lived in a village only twenty miles away from the city.
A temporary palace, just in case He Ran plays any tricks, he can rush back at any time. He knows clearly that even if he forms an alliance with Fan Bang, he can't break up with Yi Guo now, and he has to try his best to hide it from Yi Guo.
The longer this marriage is hidden, the better. He had thought of this when he sent the envoy, and specifically told him that if King Fan agreed to the marriage, he must ask King Fan to keep this secret temporarily. In this regard, what he and He Ran did
Coincidentally.
A scene that makes him extremely nervous has always appeared in Zhao Min's mind recently. Zhao Guo now seems to be an exhausted man hanging on the edge of the cliff. He is holding a branch in each hand that may break at any time. As long as he takes a short breath, he can
After gathering enough strength to climb up, the only thing I hope for at this moment is that the two branches can hold on for a while. If one of them breaks suddenly, the other one will probably be overwhelmed and break. One of the two branches is from Kang Guo and the other
It's the Yi Kingdom. He reminded himself repeatedly in the past few days that he must control the scale. He Ran could not be pushed into a hurry no matter what. As long as he survived this hurdle and the alliance with the Fan people was consolidated, they could send troops to help at any time.
, then there is nothing to fear.
