Zhai Rang appearedthe two boys some everyday life, current situation matters, he silently drank his tea The other four had no choice but to also keep silent
Out of the blue, Zhai Rang suddenly asked, “How’s the situation over there?”
But wang Ruxin see about; he replied, “Yesterday I bu about taking Liyang Storehouse After Luokou is captured, n their allegiance, so our ar”
Zhai Rang let out a stifled grunt, “Any news fro Ruxin said, “Right noang shi+chong is already in Luoyang, plotting a counterattack plan This eneral of the iy and tactics, this time Duke Mi willasked Tu Shufang in low voice, “What kind of guy is Xu shi+ji?”
Tu Shufang replied with a s Army, he is also Shen Luoyan’s boyfriend But until now Shen Luoyan is still unwilling to reatly stunned; turned out Shen Luoyan was already taken [orig fa suddenly floated in their hearts
wang Ruxin added, “I heard there is also a Sui govern County region’s ‘Cheng Yuan’s Treasure Code’; three days ago he offered the entire set of the Treasure Code to Duke Mi, so that nowadays Li Mi has beco thenoticed hoang Ruxin see; inwardly they felt very strange
Zhai Rang pressed on the table and stood up; turning toward Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, two people, he softly said, “Coarden!”
Unable to make any sense of it, the two boys si walked ahead of them, with his hands behind his back; he seeht
The snow had stopped, but the snow accuround reached about a chi deep; icicles were hanging down fro the snow; seeing Zhai Rang, they hastily went down on their knees to ko
Zhai Rang went straight toward the sarden He looked up to the sky, and with his back still facing the two boys, he said, “Sit down!”
The two boys sat down absent spoke in heavy voice, “When I heard about you, I i your past Only last night they returned to report back to me I really did not know that your nahu Evidently there are a lot of things that Li Mi is keeping fro he looked at the two boys and said, “Do you really know the location of the ‘Duke Yang Treasure’?”
With a bitter laugh Kou Zhong replied, “If we did, ould have gone to get it early on”
Zhai Rang nodded “That is reasonable,” he said, “No matter how much Luocha Nu [woman] cherished you, in the end she was still a Korean, it’s i the rise and fall of her country two a couple of Central Plains people like you”
In their hearts the two boys cried out, ‘Close shave!’ It was best if Zhai Rang thought like that
Zhai Rang sighed and said, “If I were as young as you are, I would definitely run far away froht for the rivers and ain But now I aain”
And then he continued, “Were it not for Li Mi’s ainst me, today to whom the deer falls [ie the one to seize the e explored this idio the two boys were not surprised at all, he nodded and said, “You have already guessed that the ainst me was indeed Li Mi”
The two boys had no choice but to nod
Zhai Rang breathed out a mouthful of air; he continued, “I can never let the enemy, as well as my own side, that I really suffer internal injury Even wang Ruxin thinks that Li Mi’s plot againstto incite me to kill Li Mi and seize the power back intowas baffled, “Then why did you tell Shen Luoyan that you are giving up the Da Longtou position? Wouldn’t it be the sa’s countenance changed “Did you coht?” he asked
The two boys narrated what had happened the previous night
Zhai Rang’s countenance turned incredibly ugly He sighed and said, “You have fallen into her trap, basically there is no such thing She intentionally said that because she knows the current close relationshi+p between you andyou did not show any sign of surprise, it would authenticate that I really suffer internal injury”
Stunned, the two boys looked at each other, theirrecovered his cohtly, “First of all, it was due to your lack of experience, secondly, Shen Luoyan is as crafty as a fox All we have to do right now is to think of a way to reetically said, “We have i was overwhel that he nearly wanted to kill hi the stone table, he said, “We shouldn’t have slipped out”
Zhai Rang sat down across the table from them, with an extremely soleaet the throne out, hopefully it can buy us soht now Ol’ Zhai has so I’d like to entrust to you; I wish for you to take Jiao’er to a certain place, then I will have no fear of trouble in the rear, and will have free hand in dealing with Li Mi”
The two boys felt big headache; dealing with this hard-to-please Zhai Jiao, a short ti with her for a prolonged period of tihed and said, “Shen Luoyan hates us the uarantees on’t be able to leave the city Da Longtou is asking the wrong person”
Zhai Rang was staring blankly for half a day Finally he murmured, “Who in the world does not want to catch you, yet you are still able to live free and easy It’s a clear sign that you do have so declined modestly, “That is because the opponents did not really want to kill us Besides, all those ti our escape were a lot easier”
Zhai Rang nodded his agreement, “In that case,” he said, “I’ll have to e?”
The two boys hurriedly replied, “That won’t be necessary!”
Zhai Rang smiled wryly and said, “It was because I spoiled her, nowadays everybody is afraid of Jiao’er Only she and Susu happen to be especially good to each other Ay!”
Re, the two boys did not feel particularly sy continued pouring out his heart to the two boys, “When you reach to where I aainst your will It was because I aht”
The two boys did not kno to coon-engraved ring fro’s hand, he said, “Jiao’er will leave today, and tomorroill be your turn One more day Li Mi has not returned, onere looked down to exa in his pal’s voice was heavy, “I don’t have any face to ask you to help me But in order not to let o to outsiders like the two of you to do it”
Xu Ziling said, “Whatever errands Da Longtou wants us to do, there is no harto Leshou and look for Dou Jiande In terms of talent, wisdom and martial art skill, this man is above me, plus he has a deep friendshi+p with me You can truthfully tell him my situation What co received the ring, and resolutely said, “Such a trivial thing, we can certainly do it for Da Longtou”
Zhai Rang suddenly revealed a cold and ruthless smile as he said in low voice, “He is ruthless, I won’t hold on to righteousness I only need to spill a bit of secret to wang shi+chong, I guarantee that’ll teach Li Mi a lesson in suffering defeats And then the legend that he eed victorious in every battle will collapse”
Hearing that, Kou and Xu felt a chill crept in their heart
Although right now they were standing on Zhai Rang’s side, they did not dare to give compliment toward the way he conducts hi also seeo back now,” he said, “I still want to sit here and think about how to arrange for your departure I will let you know later”
The two boys breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew in haste
Li Miasked for a long saber, but Xu Ziling wanted to use short halberd They both thought that starting now, even going to sleep they had to have their weapons in their boso politician and historian, notorious as a critic and editor of the History of Sui Dynasty

The two boys also went to find Susu, telling her that they were leaving toht Afterwards they went back to the courtyard to practice martial art
That day passed uneventfully After dinner, the two of the said, “Since that loathsoht, we’d better have Su Jie sleep in ether here like before If so will be reed, “Old Zhai is asking us a favor, he won’t dare to oppose Whatever we do, even if his eyes are wide open, he would have no choice but just turning a blind eye on us”
He has not finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, Susu’s voice was heard outside, “Are you there?”
