...

In the Qinghe Marquis Mansion, Chen Xu, Chen Ping, Xiao He, Liu Bang and others gathered together to eat hot pot. In the cold winter, it turned into ice, but the room was filled with fire, and the strong and fragrant soup was ripped in the pot. Seven or eight pairs of chopsticks rose and fell in the hot pot. The dog meat, lamb beef, pissed into rolls, and the strong aroma of the dog meat, lamb beef, emitting a strong fragrance in the rolling soup.

Eat meat and drink a large cup of wine, and the wine is very lively.

"It seems that the Xiang rebels will not be able to jump for long, and this time the crackdown that has swept across the country is probably going to be completely stable!"

While a group of people were eating hot pot, they were also discussing this thing that excited the court.

"Ping has already said that the demise of the Xiang rebels is only a matter of time. I thought it would delay for half a year, but I didn't expect that it would be desperate in four months!" Chen Ping shook his head with a little regret.

"Haha, Tongwu Hou is not a reckless man like Xiong Shan Hou. How afraid is it for a few rebels with only tens of thousands of rebels!" Chen Xu smiled and drank.

"The Xiang family is not in line with the right time, place, and people, and they are just trying to perish. Moreover, Gao Yong is so brave. With just two or three thousand soldiers and horses, he has cut off the Xiang family's retreat for several months!" Xiao He nodded and said.

"Brother Xiao said that military strategy emphasizes the right time, place, and people. The Xiang family hastily launched an army and did not occupy it. I don't know why they embarked on this road of self-destruction. It seems that they still respect them. Once the Xiang family is destroyed, no one in the six countries will dare to rebel. Your Majesty launched a nationwide crackdown on the rebellion of the Xiang family. Although it is inevitable that the innocent will be implicated, the world will be peaceful in this way!" Chen Ping stroked his palm and looked pleased.

Liu Bang sat next to him and was dazed while eating and drinking, without saying a word.

"Why is Manager Liu so depressed?" Chen Xu asked with a smile.

"Oh~" Liu Bang put down his wine glass with a melancholy expression, "Your Majesty cracked down on idle men and wanderers, and I'm afraid that all the brothers in Pei County will also be in trouble!"

The group of people were slightly stunned, Xiao He's face also became a little depressed, but Chen Ping put down his chopsticks and said, "Liu Ji, are you confused? Shouldn't you thank the Marquis for bringing you to Xianyang, otherwise you will be doomed this time, and maybe you have been sent to the road construction!"

Liu Bang was stunned for a long time and nodded: "Secretary Chen said that if it weren't for the Marquis, he would definitely be a criminal."

"Ji Duo, thanking the Marquis for helping him!" Liu Bang stood up and bowed respectfully to Chen Xu.

"Haha, you are already in an official position now, don't have a thought. Those gangsters are in trouble with Pei County. The local people dare to be angry but dare not speak out. Even the county magistrate Jiang Beiting has left those gangsters helpless. Could it be that you think that you can be happy for a long time? The Qin Dynasty is governed from chaos, and it is inevitable to attack the people who commit crimes. It's just sooner or later. Don't interact with those gangsters in the future. You will manage Cuju Square well and run the Cuju League well. You will inevitably get a great fortune in the future. Even if you can't be ranked in the court and win a wife and a group of gangsters in Pei County, it's better than you spend all day with a group of gangsters in Pei County!" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"What the Marquis said is that Ji will definitely not disappoint the Marquis!" Liu Bang nodded quickly.

"You can think of it. Your current identity is very different. The future development of the Qin Dynasty will inevitably be rapid and prosperous. This is the time for you to show your skills, especially Cuju Square. After repairing it, it will inevitably be a grand event that has been passed down through the ages. Don't be careless and negligent!" Chen Xu nodded.

Just as they were eating, drinking and chatting, the guard manager hurriedly came to report: "Mr. Marquis, someone who claimed to be Cao Shen came to the Marquis's mansion to pay a visit!"

"Hey, Brother Cao is back!" Xiao He and Liu Bang stood up excitedly, "Mr. Marquis forgive me, I'll go out to greet you!"

"Go!" Chen Xu nodded, Xiao He and Liu Bang came out together, and after a moment, Cao Shen, who was wrapped in like a brown bear, came in, but followed by a middle-aged man wearing coarse linen.

"Gaini?" Chen Xu was surprised.

"Plop~"

Gai Nie came in and knelt directly in front of Chen Xu without even speaking. Chen Xu frowned and said, "Gai Nie, why did you give such a great gift to me?"

"Ga Nie is here to ask the marquis to help him go out to sea to save Beiyan!" Gai Nie raised his head and looked at Chen Xu.

Having not seen each other for several months, Gai Nie looked much haggard and older. His black hair and beard were a little gray, his cheeks were dark and thin, and even his face was a little sick, and his eyes were filled with desolation and helplessness.

The room was very quiet, and Xiao He and Liu Bang and others didn't say anything, and could only hear the sound of the tumbled soup in the hot pot.

Gai Nie is famous all over the world and is the most famous ranger in the Qin Dynasty. He heard that he had contact with the nobles of the Great Wei Dynasty, but this is reasonable, because Gai Nie was originally a royal family of the Great Jin Dynasty. After the three families divided Jin, the Zhi family disappeared, and many descendants of the royal family also changed their names and surnames to join the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao and Wei. Only Gai Nie took Zhi as his surname, and was very skilled in martial arts, and had a very high status among folk rangers. However, this person was alone and did not have any entanglements with ordinary gangsters.

Xiao He, Liu Bang, Chen Ping and others did not know about Gai Nie and Gongsun Beiyan. Chen Xu knew about it, but he only learned from Yu Wuya, Shui Qingrou and others that after hearing the description of Yu Wuya's fangs and claws and adding fuel to the fire, he felt as if he was being arched by a wild boar for a long time.

He never expected that a martial arts master who was famous all over the world who chopped Yu Wuya like chopping vegetables would have such a bloody plot with Gongsun Beiyan.

There was a bloody case caused by half a steamed bun in the past, but now there is a sinister love left by half a hot cake.

In order to repay the life of half a hot cake, an uncle in his forties practiced his extraordinary martial arts skills, he actually followed a woman like Gongsun Beiyan with big breasts and brainlessness as an unknown dog-legged dog.

If you like her, you will be by your side all day long and watch her dealings with countless down-and-out nobles from the six countries and messy men. Even though the people in the Qin Dynasty are now chaotic, men and women are not hiding each other's chaotic affairs as usual, but this heart is too big, so big that Chen Xu vomits blood.

Chen Xu does not despise men and women for a happy night. It is normal to have a princess in a nightclub in later generations. Moreover, the Qin Dynasty is not the level of defense for men and women after the prosperity of Confucianism in later generations, and the relationship between men and women is also relatively chaotic. However, seeing the woman he likes constantly dealing with different men, Chen Xu is completely unbearable.

If it weren't for taking care of Shui Qingru's emotions, Chen Xu wouldn't have had any good looks with Gongsun Beiyan at all. Of course, his face had never been better when he saw Gongsun Beiyan several times.

At that time, he was ridiculed and even wanted to dig Gai Nie to his subordinates. First, he wanted to subdue Gai Nie for his own use, and second, he wanted to use this to dispel Gongsun Beiyan's unrealistic ideas and save Shui Qingrou, the best friend who has been playing with since childhood.

But things went against their wishes, and this matter did not succeed. Now, according to his status and strength, people like Gai Nie no longer need help.

After a group of teenagers at the sea killed Huangshigong with a messy gun, Yu Wuya remained silent for several days without saying anything, and sighed with a hand gun all day long.

The power of the musket completely completely lost all the shorts that Yu Wuya was proud of, so even after returning to Xianyang, Yu Wuya basically did not practice martial arts much. Now he was looking for Ji Bu to avenge Chen Xu with a group of musket boys all over the world.

Although Gai Nie has high martial arts skills, this person has a problem with his head and was kicked by a donkey.

This is Chen Xu’s understanding of Gai Nie.

Looking at Gai Nie kneeling in front of him, Chen Xu was silent for a long time and shook his head: "The East China Sea is boundless. You have searched around Langya for several months but have not found it. I can't do anything about it!"

"Marty, the group of alchemists and Mo disciples have not returned to the Central Plains. They must have taken Beiyan overseas to look for Yingzhou. Gai Nie couldn't bear to see the Beiyan falling miserably overseas and bullied by Mo disciples and Taoist priests. They beg the Marquis to give Gai Nie some advice, where is Yingzhou? At the same time, they also prayed to the Marquis to borrow a sailboat to let Gai Nie go to sea!"

Chen Xu shook his head again: "Gai Nie, it's not that I don't want to help you. It costs hundreds of thousands of yuan to build a large ship. It's okay, but when I go to sea, I need boatmen who are proficient in observing the astronomical phenomena and identifying the directions and sailors who are skilled in sailboats. And when I go to sea, I have to prepare enough to go to sea. Maybe I can't turn around for half a year. I can lend you a big ship, but those sailors and boatmen cannot follow you without preparation to sacrifice their lives. I advise you to give up this idea. In order to save my wife, I tried my best to keep Huangshi Gong, because Yingzhou could not be found in the vast ocean. Even if I find it, those few hundred people drilled into the deep mountains and wild ridges, like looking for a needle in a haystack. Gongsun Beiyan is not worth your doing, and it is not worth my attack!"

Hearing Chen Xu's refusal, Gai Nie's slightly gray and messy hair trembled slightly, as if he had lost his energy, kneeling on the ground in a daze for a long time before covering his chest and coughing a few times. He bowed to Chen Xu with a gray face and said, "Thank you for your help that day, Gai Nie said goodbye!"

Seeing Gai Nie staggering out of the room and disappearing into the cold wind, Cao Shen then smiled bitterly and bowed, "Don't blame me, Marquis, this Gai Nie is eager to save people. After waking up, he would go out to sea to find Gongsun Beiyan. At that time, the Marquis' advice was given, and Gan also tried his best to help. As a result, he searched back and forth around Langya and Penglai for several months, but did not find out the whereabouts of any alchemist and Motu. Therefore, he had to go back to Xianyang to report to the Marquis. Gai Nie came with him, and Gan could not refuse!"
