General Qin.

Chapter 127 Fan Yi

Chapter 127 Fan Yi
Fan Yi was over half a century old, with gray hair and a slightly stooped body.

He opened his mouth full of Qin Yin, if he didn't know his details, he would never know that this person was from the state of Chu, and would just treat him as an ordinary senior in Guanzhong.

When he received Xiang Qu's letter, Fan Yi didn't want to see this person.

He knew the nature of meeting the deputy envoy of Chu secretly in his capacity as Qin Guobang's lieutenant Cao Cao.

I also know what kind of purpose the other party is looking for to meet him.

But he still met Xiang Qu.

As his name suggests, Fan Yi is just like those generous men in Yanzhao, he believes in the word "righteousness".

Xiang Qu's grandfather was kind to Fan Yi. If there was no Xiang family, he would have died long ago, let alone come to Qin.

Zhien wants to repay him with pictures, just like the boy named Zhao Gao he rescued when he was a small official in the hidden palace.

Zhao Gao is very talkative about "righteousness" and knows how to repay kindness.

After being developed, he did not forget to give Fan Yi a good future.

The humble son who grew up in the hidden palace still talks about "righteousness", let alone Fan Yi who is named after "righteousness".

So when Xiang Qu asked those words out of his mouth.

Fan Yi answered.

……

Xiang Qu quietly returned to the Chu state motorcade.

Let the one who disguised himself as him in his clothes transform back into the horse-feeding follower.

"Hey, what did Fan Yi say?"

Jing Zhao asked impatiently, seeing Xiang Qu's expression, he had a bad feeling in his heart.

Xiang Qu shook his head and said, "Fan Yi said that he didn't know whether the King of Qin had the intention of conquering Chu, but since Zhengdan, the Bangwei Mansion has started to dispatch grain, fodder and soldiers from all over the country, and it seems that they want to attack Wei after the spring plowing."

Jing Zhao laughed when he heard this.

"This person is Cao Chuan from Bangwei's Mansion. If the King of Qin wants to attack Chu, he will definitely know. Now even he can't tell whether the King of Qin has the intention of attacking Chu, then he must not have it."

What Jing Zhao said made sense. Chu State is a big country in the world. If Qin State wants to destroy Chu, it will not be won in one battle. If it has the intention of defeating Chu, it will definitely start preparing long in advance.

Jing Zhao couldn't help sighing again: "King Qin's ambition is really great. After destroying the two countries of Han and Zhao, the land of Yan has not been completely swallowed, and now he has the idea of ​​​​attacking the state of Wei, alas..."

Xiang Qu narrowed his eyes, and said coldly: "Mr. Songyang is not used to war, so it is too easy to think. Now that the state of Wei is broken, its power is weaker than that of Yan. During the war with Qin, Wei has fought many times. Repeatedly defeated, without the strength to fight back."

"If the state of Qin wants to destroy Wei, it only needs to let Wang Ben lead an army of tens of thousands, and he can take down the state of Wei nearby. There is no need to mobilize the whole country's food, fodder and soldiers."

"According to what Fan Yi said, the grain and grass transported by Bangwei's Mansion is enough to feed 20 people. Such a huge amount, if it is used to destroy Wei, wouldn't it be like slaughtering chickens with an ox knife?"

Jing Zhao was stunned.

He is not a general, so naturally he doesn't understand the battles of the battlefield, but now that he heard what Xiang Qu said, he knew something was wrong.

"When the Qin State attacked Yan, it only sent 20 troops. Now it has dispatched [-] people for food and grass. It would be wrong to destroy Wei. But if Qin State wants to use this number of people to attack our Chu State, it is unavoidable. Too frivolous."

"In the past few years, although the war in our country of Chu has not been going well, there are still millions of men holding halberds, and the place is thousands of miles away. How can he destroy it with 20 people? With such a number of people, I think he wants to kill Wei after he destroys Wei. Therefore, it is better to take advantage of the situation and attack Qi." Jing Zhao did not want to believe that King Qin had the possibility of conquering Chu.

Xiang Qu glanced at him and did not argue, but said: "No matter what, there are many doubts about this matter. We will return to China as soon as possible and report to the king so that we can make full preparations in advance."

"Um,"

Jing Zhao nodded. Xiang Qu is the son of Xiang Yan, a general of Chu State. In this respect, he is indeed much more sensitive than himself.

……

"That Fan Yi didn't know that the king was going to attack Chu next year, but he told Xiang Qu that the Bangwei Mansion would mobilize food in the next year. That Xiang Qu is the son of Xiang Yan, so he must have guessed that we will attack Chu next year." felling."

Yao Jia stood in the room, reporting information to Qin Wangzheng who was sitting in the main seat.

Qin Wangzheng asked: "The envoy of Chu State has already left the city?"

"As long as the king gives an order, he can be captured in an instant, and no one can escape." Yao Jia's voice was very cold, with a murderous intent.

Qin Wangzheng frowned, did not answer immediately, but looked at the other person in the room.

"Weiqing, the incident happened under your command..."

Wei Liao blew his beard and stared, and said: "Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with me. This Fan Yi was not promoted by me, but was recommended by others. How could it be said that he came from my subordinates. And I have not revealed anything about Fa Chu. Fan Yi should be responsible for the distribution of grain and fodder, so how can we hide it."

It's no wonder that Wei Liao pushed the blame like this, Qin Guo said the law of continuous sitting, Fan Yi leaked the secret, if he was investigated, his boss might not be able to escape the responsibility.

"Okay, okay, I know that this matter has nothing to do with Wei Qing, so I will punish Fan Yi myself later. But now that the envoy of Chu State has left the city, how should we deal with it?"

Qin Wangzheng rubbed his swollen temples, this matter was a bit nerve-wracking.

Wei Liao pondered for a while, and said, "Fan Yi only revealed the matter of the transportation of grain and grass, and didn't mention the plan to attack Chu. Even if Xiang Qu and Jing Zhao were suspicious, it's hard to be sure. It's nothing to worry about."

"On the contrary, if we send people to capture them, not only will the alliance be broken, but we will also directly turn against Chu State. Capturing envoys is no less than going to war directly."

"Well, I understand what you mean. Then Jing Zhao and Xiang Qu will ignore it and continue to act according to the original plan. Even if they can guess a thing or two, it will not affect the general situation."

Qin Wangzheng nodded, thinking of Fan Yi's betrayal, his eyes gradually turned cold.

He raised his head and looked outside the house, and saw that the guard on duty today was Zhao Tuo.

Qin Wangzheng hesitated a little, and called out: "Zhao Tuo, you go to Tingwei's Mansion, and let the special case judge Zuo Jian come."

"only."

Zhao Tuo responded respectfully, explained to Yang Xiong who was on duty, and then quickly left the Qin Palace and walked towards Tingwei's Mansion.

He was guarding the door just now, and he heard most of the things in the house.

Knowing that there was a problem with an official in Bangwei's mansion, he leaked some information to the envoy of Chu State.

The nature of this kind of thing is very bad, no less than treason, presumably what awaits the official must be a terrible punishment.

"It's just that if the king wants to judge the crime, he can just throw that Cao Cao to the Ting Wei's mansion. Why do you want me to come here to invite Zuo Qiao into the palace?"

Zhao Tuo was puzzled, but now he also has the qualities to be a Lang Wei, and the things he hears are rotten in his stomach, and he will never ask questions that should not be asked.

The calm expression lasted until Zhao Tuo entered Tingwei Mansion.

After he conveyed the imperial edict of Qin Wangzheng, the on-duty Zuo Jian bowed his hands and said his name.

The moment Zhao Tuo heard that name, Zhao Tuo's eyelids jumped.

Zhonglang will be Meng Tian's brother.

Meng Yi.
