"Yan'er, why are you here? Also, this is."

Ji Gu had a dull look on his face at this moment, looking at the young man in disbelief, the little brat he had always taken with him when he was still in Qi State.

Why is Yan'er here?

It should be in Qi State, why is it in the Qin army, and why does Yan'er become a Qin doctor?

Kogu suddenly thought of something.

Yan!

Bai Yan!

Thinking of this, Kogu slowly opened his mouth again and looked at the young man in front of him in shock.

Bai Yan, who those dead soldiers had been trying to assassinate before.

It’s Yan’er! His nephew!

"It's a long story."

Bai Yan looked at his uncle and slowly told him about being driven out of Qi State.

But of course he wouldn't say anything about Zou Xing.

It is impossible for my uncle to go to the Bai family. Even if he goes to the Bai family, the Bai family will not tell anything about Zou Xing.

In the study room.

Under a candlelight, Kogu knelt down at the table and watched the young man in front of him pour him tea. Listening to the young man's words, it took him a long time to recover from the shock, with a look of emotion on his face.

"You boy!"

Kogu said dumbfounded, who would have thought that the kid who was bullied in the village before, his sister's own son, would now be so big in the blink of an eye.

Not only did he become a senior official of the Qin State, he also had the surname Bai.

I don’t know what method this boy used to hook up with the Bai family woman and successfully marry into the Bai family.

You must know that since ancient times, the gap in status has destined women not to marry. Unless the tribesmen particularly admire a person, they will marry off their children.

But this time.

Ji Gu suddenly thought, since Yan'er is Bai Yan, then it was Yan'er who led the Bai family's cavalry north to seize the city?

Think of this.

Kogu had a look of astonishment on his face. He looked at the young man in front of him and suddenly felt that this was the little nephew who had followed him to get bird eggs since he was a child?

How could Yan'er lead troops to fight?

Kogu was about to ask Bai Yan, but before he could speak, he saw Bai Yan looking at him with a puzzled expression.

"Little uncle, why haven't you come home all these years?"

Bai Yan asked.

Bai Yan knew very well whether his uncle was a filial person, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to recognize him.

But it is precisely because of this that I am even more curious about why my uncle has never gone home to visit my grandmother in these years.

"Kill someone."

Kogu sighed, and when he mentioned home, his expression was full of helplessness.

"I killed three people in Linzi that year. If I were to go back and be recognized, my grandmother and uncle would be implicated."

Kogu took the teacup on the table, treated the tea as wine, and drank it in one gulp.

There has been no war in Qi State, but just like that, most of the officials are still the same people.

At that time, he was worried that his family would be harmed. After the murder, he did not even dare to return home and ran to the Chu country without his life.

In the past few years, he wanted to go home, but he didn't dare to go back, and he didn't even dare to let people know that he was alive.

"kill?"

Bai Yan frowned, and then he understood why his grandmother and mother never mentioned anything about his uncle when he first asked them.

He must have known something, and he was still very young at that time.

"Is your grandmother okay?"

Kogu glanced at Bai Yan, his eyes full of guilt, his eyes turned red, and then he lowered his head.

After their father passed away, it was his mother who single-handedly raised the three sisters, but now he can't even fulfill his filial piety.

"My uncle was working as a hawker in Linzi. My grandmother was alone at home and fainted several times. When my uncle learned about it, he took my grandmother to Linzi and saw a doctor. She should be fine."

Bai Yan opened his mouth and told his uncle what happened that day.

Hearing this, Ji Gu looked at Bai Yan blankly, tears slowly appearing in his eyes.

I thought of the hard-working mother who raised him single-handedly when he was a child, and would rather go hungry than feed him.

Dong dong dong~!

"Little uncle."

Bai Yan saw his uncle suddenly banging his head on the wooden table, making a loud noise, and quickly stepped forward to stop him.

However, my uncle was in a daze and didn't want his life.

Almost instantly, a trace of blood appeared on the wooden table.

Bai Yan stopped his uncle, and then he was worried that he might knock his head, so he held his forehead, but the next moment.

Bai Yan felt a sharp pain in his hand. Fortunately, with his persistence, his uncle finally stopped after being stunned for a while.

"The child is unfilial~!"

When Kogu raised his head again, a trace of blood slowly flowed from his forehead, and the tears in his eyes slowly flowed down the cheeks that had been baptized by the years.

This middle-aged man was crying like a child at the moment, his eyes full of pain.

Bai Yan watched his uncle calm down and finally waved his hands. Looking at his uncle, he could understand that feeling.

Bai Yan found a piece of cloth and gave it to his uncle.

Kogu closed his eyes and said nothing, but the tears on his old face kept flowing.

After a long time.

Only then did Kogu open his eyes, which were blurred with tears.

"Little uncle, Yan'er hasn't asked yet why he brought dead soldiers with him."

Bai Yan was worried that his uncle would not be able to think about it anymore, so he quickly changed the topic.

At this moment, Bai Yan was also filled with questions as to why his uncle was with those dead soldiers.

As he spoke, Bai Yan turned around and brought the bamboo slips that Baofu had received.

Shen Yuan should not change his plan. After all, only Han Ling knew about this matter. Han Ling was dead. There was no reason for Shen Yuan to change his previous plan. Besides, that was the best way to delay the Qin army.

General Chu Ren has already led his elite troops to Xinzheng. When the cavalry army arrives in the new city tomorrow, he will also lead the cavalry army to Xinzheng.

When Xinzheng is broken, there is no need to hide any great fortune.

"No wonder Yan'er found me."

Although Ji Gu felt uncomfortable at the moment, after knowing that Bai Yan was Yan'er, he naturally thought of what happened before, and when he thought of Yan'er's safety, he became a little angry.

Looking at the contents inside the bamboo slips with tear-stained eyes, Kogu finally understood.

It turns out that Yan'er had already controlled his whereabouts when he was in Yangzhen.

"Previously, the Xiang family received the news, so they sent dead soldiers to ambush Bai Yu. This time, the Xiang family also asked them to do it. Yan'er, you are now being targeted by them. You must be careful in the future."

Ji Gu looked at Bai Yan. Since Yan'er was already a member of the Bai family, as his younger uncle, he would naturally look towards Yan'er.

For him, he once dreamed of fame and wealth, but now that he is middle-aged, he chooses family affection in front of him.

Just like just now, when he learned that his mother was ill, he just wanted to give everything he had in exchange for being able to return to his mother and honor her.

"Uncle, are you with the Xiang family now?"

Bai Yan frowned slightly, then thought of something and looked at his uncle.

Kogu shook his head.

"In the Qu family, under the sect of Qu Yu."

Kugu said.

After the murder, he was worried that his identity would be discovered, so he quickly fled Qi State, not daring to enter the city along the way.

After arriving in Chu State, although he didn't have much ability, he was fortunate to have strength and was a righteous man.

By chance, he was appreciated by the then Situ Quyu, and became his diner, and was highly regarded.

In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed.

"Situ."
