Chapter 320: The Land of Bashu(2/2)
"Ba family...is the Ba family similar to a royal family?"
Zhang Qigong felt a slight shiver in his heart, and involuntarily turned his head to glance at Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu, who was walking with them not far away, and felt a little enlightened.
He originally found it strange that although Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu was Xiong Hu's cousin, he had a vague intention to please the latter. Now that he heard the truth revealed by Mi Rui, he finally understood.
Not far away, Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu saw Zhang Qigong looking at him, and he felt helpless.
To be honest, he didn't want Ji Rui to reveal the information about Bashu to Zhang Qigong at all, but he couldn't stop Ji Rui. After all, he also understood that a silly girl like Ji Rui, who had no city government and was even a little stupid,
If you encounter a man like Zhang Qigong, who is very scheming in the city, he will definitely be tricked out of all the information. Although he can stop it once, can he stop it every time?
No, in the angry eyes of Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu, Zhang Qigong continued to ask about the current situation of the Bashi tribe - which was slightly different from what Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu thought. Zhang Qigong did not think that he got this information from Mi Rui.
It's what they say, because after all, the image of Mi Rui in the minds of Xiong Hu and Zhang Qigong is slightly different.
"The current monarch of Ba is called "Ba Qian" and he currently lives in "Jiangzhou". I have met him several times and he is a very kind person." With that, Ji Rui began to talk about her relationship with Ba Qian at that time.
What happened when we met.
Zhang Qigong listened very carefully and had a general understanding of Ba Jin, the monarch of Ba. He was probably a public figure. Although he was determined to integrate the country, he was not outstanding in terms of means and tactics. More importantly, he was not good at doing things.
Cruel and ruthless.
In the mixed power of Pakistan, how can such a cowardly monarch control the whole country?
Shaking his head secretly, Zhang Qigong asked again: "So, the trade between Chu State and Ba State in recent years is actually the Ba family in Jiangzhou?"
He turned to look at Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu, who happened to be staring at him angrily.
"Haha, even if you miss, you're not far off!"
Seeing the depressed expression of Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu, Zhang Qigong knew that he must have guessed 80% to 90% correctly - the object of the transaction with the Chu State in the Ba Kingdom, if not the Ba Jin, the monarch of the Ba Kingdom, must be the Ba family.
people.
"It seems that the Chu State plans to copy the same trick they used when they obtained the "Secret Records of Lu Gong" from the Lu State."
Zhang Qigong secretly sneered.
While sneering, he also considered whether he could benefit the Wei State from this matter.
Of course, Zhang Qigong was not in a hurry about this matter. In contrast, he was more interested in finding Lord Chu Shui, killing him, gaining the trust of Xi Rui, and then persuading Lord Xi Rui to side with him in Wei.
Thinking of this, he chuckled and asked: "Master Mi Rui, I think that since Mr. Chu Shui has suspected that Mr. Pingyu has the intention to kill him, he will not easily go to Bashi, who has good relations with you, but will choose
「
"Fan clan", "Qing clan", "Xiang clan", "Zheng clan" and other tribes that want to replace the Ba clan, Sir Ji Rui might as well send people to inquire about these tribes, and they will surely be able to find out the news about Chu Shuijun.
.”
"Yes, this Zhang Qigong is really witty..."
Mi Rui looked at Zhang Qigong in surprise.
This time, Zhang Qigong clearly saw Mi Rui's "surprised" expression as she subconsciously opened her eyes slightly, and he couldn't help but feel secretly proud.
However, at this moment, two witches came quickly from the front of the path. After seeing Mi Rui, they saluted and said: "Witch, we have found the whereabouts of Lord Chu Shui!"
"Are you serious?" Mi Rui asked in surprise.
He immediately walked towards the two witches, took them not far away and asked them carefully.
"Haha, even God is on my side. That thief Chu Shuijun will definitely die this time!"
After receiving the confirmed news, Mi Rui was overjoyed.
She had no idea that the witch under her control would stumble upon Chu Shuijun's whereabouts.
This is really God helping me!
At this time, looking at Mi Rui's back in the distance, the smile on Zhang Qigong's face became quite awkward, and then he felt a slight burning sensation on his cheeks.
"It turns out that she has already sent someone to inquire. This is really..."
Zhang Qigong looked stern. He originally wanted to show off his intelligence and win some favor in front of that Mi Rui, but he never thought that the other party had already thought of it.
"I'm so embarrassed now... I have to find a way to save my face."
Zhang Qigong thought secretly.
At the same time, Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu also stared at Zhang Qigong's expression. Seeing that the latter's expression suddenly became strange, he also made a lot of thoughts in his mind.
"This Zhang Qigong... I don't know what he is planning. I need to be careful."
He thought secretly.
At this time, Mi Rui had come back from a short distance away and said with a hint of surprise: "We have found out the whereabouts of Mr. Chu Shui. This dog thief is currently in the territory of the "Xiang Clan"."
After hearing this, Zhang Qigong and Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu looked at each other and frowned slightly.
Obviously, Zhang Qigong's judgment was correct. Chu Shuijun did not choose to be the orthodox "Ba clan" of the Ba Kingdom, but decided to start with the "Xiang clan".
