Liu Ji and others discussed for a while, after determining the strategy, they walked towards the spy and said with a smile: "It turns out that they are Prime Minister Wang, I am ignorant, I am ignorant. I have offended many things just now, Hai Han, Hai Han."

The spy smiled bitterly: "Can the heroes, can they be loosened?"

Liu Ji immediately looked very panicked and said to the person next to him: "Let loosen your ties, loosen your ties quickly."

So, the spy was let go.

Then he looked around and asked curiously: "Where is General Xiang Yu?"

Liu Ji coughed dryly and looked at a thick man next to him.

The man stood up and said, "You came so unexpectedly, General Yu is not here."

"No?" The spy was a little disappointed, and then asked, "I don't know where General Yu is going?"

The man said, "General Yu has gone to contact the righteous men in Chu. Although Xiang has a great prestige in Chu, we can do it if we rebel against Qin alone. However, General Yu believes that the scholars in Chu should be allowed to participate and give them a chance to avenge their revenge."

The spy was stunned: This is really shameless. Is there any kind man in Chu who is willing to go with you? The last time he rebelled, he was quickly put down like a house-playing house, which was simply a joke.

Of course, the spies didn't dare to say this. It would be better to be careful on the chassis.

So the spy said a few compliments and asked again: "I wonder when General Yu will come back?"

The man looked at the sky and sighed and said, "It's hard to say, maybe three or two days, maybe seven or eight days, maybe ten days, maybe one or two months."

The spy was a little confused: "It took so long."

The man smiled: "However, General Yu doesn't have to decide on cooperation. Now General Yu's righteous brother is here, and he says it's the same."

The spy was a little confused and hadn't heard that Xiang Yu had a righteous brother.

The man pointed at Liu Ji: "This one is General Yu's righteous brother."

The spy quickly saluted Liu Ji: "Greetings to the general, what do you call the general?"

Liu Ji didn't want to reveal his real name, and in a hurry, he couldn't make up any unfathomable names, so he simply said lightly: "You call me brother. I don't need to say my name. I helped my brother to rebel against Qin, not for glory and wealth, but for the people of the world. After things are accomplished, I will still retire to the mountains and forests."

The spy laughed dryly and thought to himself: This righteous brother is even more arrogant than Xiang Yu.

Liu Ji asked the spy: "You want to cooperate with me Xiang?"

The spy nodded repeatedly.

Liu Ji thought for a while and said, "To be honest, there are some difficulties in our food and grass. Can you allocate some? If it is inconvenient to transport grain, gold, silver and wealth are also fine."

The spy thought to himself: Xiang Yu’s righteous brother is quite pragmatic. If it were Xiang Yu, he would definitely not be able to put this down.

The spy was even a little suspicious, thinking that Xiang Yu was nearby, but he was embarrassed to ask for money, so he sent such a righteous brother to come forward.

The spy thought for a while and said to Liu Ji: "We must report this to my prime minister."

Liu Ji nodded: "Tomorrow, we will meet here. At noon tomorrow, send gold and silver."

Then, Liu Ji waved his hand and all his men retreated.

The spy stood there in a daze for a while, and saw that Liu Ji had no idea of ​​chatting anymore, so he left with a deep thought.

Half an hour later, Fan Kuai came back.

After seeing Liu Ji, he immediately smiled and said, "Brother, I was so happy. I sneaked into Pei County and found Lord Xiao He. Lord Xiao said that the envoy of the emperor did not come to loot merchants. What was the purpose of it, and he did not say clearly. Before leaving, he did not say that the county magistrate would continue to capture you."

Liu Ji frowned: "Although the messenger didn't say it clearly, I'm afraid that the county magistrate would take the initiative to arrest me in order to seek credit."

Fan Kuai smiled and said, "No, no. We had a fight last night, and now everyone knows that there was a thief nearby. Lu Taigong's two daughters are gone again. The county magistrate is so busy that he doesn't care about us at all."

"It is said that the messenger left overnight and probably couldn't care about us anymore."

Liu Ji nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, okay. Double happiness is coming."

Afterwards, Liu Ji told Fan Kuai about the news that Wang Heng sent someone to contact him. Fan Kuai was also happy to dance.

Liu Ji said to his subordinates: "Pack up your things and let's change the place. It's no longer safe. After receiving the gold, silver and treasure tomorrow, he will immediately return to Sishui Pavilion."

The people under his command were cheering and began to pack up their things.

At the same time, the spy has returned to Wang Heng.

He said Liu Ji's meaning, and Wang Heng sneered: "Xiang, you are as greedy as ever. When I, Wang, dealing with them in the past, kept providing money and food."

"What's the result? Xiang's family is very powerful, but after breakfast, they fell down as soon as they touched it. The Qin people wiped them out without any effort. It's really embarrassing."

The spy asked, "Then will we give the gold and silver they want?"

Wang Heng said: "Give it, of course you have to give it. Now the reputation of Xiang's family is already bad. It is impossible for them to rebel successfully on their own. Even if they get gold and silver, it is useless. In the end, they still have to surrender to us."

"I use these gold and silver to buy their loyalty. It's very good. When Xiang's family joins us in the future, their people come, and gold and silver will come back."

The spy's eyes lit up and he complimented: "Prime Minister, this plan is really wonderful. But...whether do we have gold and silver?"

Wang Heng thought for a while and said, "There is no gold and silver, we can rob you. We have 500 elite soldiers and generals. Just rob them and get a car to send them to him."

The spy frowned: "They are in a hurry. They will see gold and silver at noon tomorrow. However, in such a short time, we can only grab the nearby Peixian."

Wang Heng said lightly: "Then rob Pei County."

The spy laughed dryly: "Prime Minister, Xiang Yu and the others had already robbed yesterday. Now Pei County must have strengthened its defense."

Wang Heng laughed: "You only know one thing, not the other. Xiang Yu and others did rob and rob, but they only had a dozen of them."

"The people of Pei County will not only not be prepared, but will despise this group of thieves. They never expected that the ten people yesterday turned into five hundred people."

The spy was slightly stunned, and then said in convincingly: "The Prime Minister is a clever plan."

…………

In Xianyang City, Li Si had already received a letter from the envoy of the Emperor. He opened it and looked at it, then frowned.

The letter said it very clearly that Liu Ji did not seem to mean rebellion.

Li Si thought about it and wiped out some of the contents of the letter. After removing some key information, Liu Ji was like a thief.

For example, Liu Ji disappeared for more than a month and sneaked into Xianyang City.

For example, Liu Ji lived in Sishui Pavilion in a quiet place, his whereabouts were mysterious and he never dealt with others. The villagers knew very little about him.

After such changes, the implications of this letter are more obvious, and everything points to Liu Ji as a thief.

Li Si smiled proudly: "Have you faked me? No, every word in this letter is what the messenger said."

Then, Li Si entered the palace excitedly.

Of course, he dared to change this letter and was sure that the Barley Team was a thief.

In the palace, Li Si told Ying Zheng the news he received.

After hearing this, Ying Zheng thought for a long time, and then said to the little eunuch beside him: "Call Huai Guzi."

The little eunuch responded and went to call someone.

A quarter of an hour later, Li Shui arrived panting.

After seeing Li Si, he showed an innocent smile: "Why did Lord Tingwei start to sue me?"

Li Si smiled slightly: "The word "典" in the exiled immortal is very vivid."

Ying Zheng looked at Li Shui and said lightly: "Huai Guzi, the four people from Damai Team, do you still have the impression?"

Li Shui said simply: "I have an impression. These people are extremely prominent, how could I forget them?"

Li Si next to him smiled, thinking in his heart: "After a while, Huai Guzi should definitely deny that they are rebels, right? In that case, I will immediately suggest that Your Majesty ask me to interrogate the banished immortal and prove his innocence...hehe."

Ying Zheng said again: "I think the four of them are not ordinary people."

Li Shui smiled and said, "They are naturally not ordinary people. These people are elite soldiers and generals that I have chosen. Your Majesty, I will tell you that the guards in Shangjun's other courtyards are very high. This is not my life-threatening me, but to ensure that I will be foolproof when refining elixirs for Your Majesty."

"The immortal pill is rare. If it is stolen after being successfully refined, it is stolen. Isn't that bad? The rebels rebel to gain the world. The thief steals the pills to live forever. For this great temptation, they always take risks."

Ying Zheng's face sank: "At this time, are you still covering up?"

Li Shui was stunned: "What does Your Majesty mean?"

Ying Zheng said coldly: "I have already investigated it clearly. The four members of the Barley Team are not ordinary people in Chu. It is probably because you arranged them on purpose that they can enter Shangjun Villa?"

Li Si looked at Li Shui with an excited look on his face, his heart twitching. He just waited for Li Shui to deny it, and then suggested that His Majesty take him down.

Li Si silently recited the draft...

At this time, the surprise on Li Shui's face disappeared, and instead he was full of admiration.

He looked at Ying Zheng with great admiration: "Your Majesty is indeed a saint of Ming Dynasty. This is seen by Your Majesty. I am really impressed by you."

Ying Zheng: "..."

Li Si sneered in his heart: This locust kernel is really interesting. When he is about to die, he is still flattering His Majesty.

Ying Zheng said lightly: "Tell me clearly whether the four people in the Barley Team are traitors."

Li Shui nodded and said, "It's a thief."

Li Si blurted out: "Your Majesty, I think that I should be questioned, and I will be honest with the exiled immortal... Hum?"

Li Si only realized halfway through his speech. Li Shui did not deny everything, but admitted it openly.

He looked at Li Shui in surprise: "Are they robbers?"
To be continued...
