"Wu Anjun has always been good."

"It's always good to be too young."

After about two months apart, when the two met again, they couldn't help but feel some emotion, so although they greeted each other, they had another feeling in their hearts.

In fact, Yan Guo didn't want to send an envoy to visit Daijun at all, after all, Yan Guo was defeated by the plateau, dismantled hundreds of thousands of troops, and compensated a large amount of gold, grain and grass, and population, no matter who could swallow this breath, not to mention that now the plateau is just a feudal monarch, or self-reliant, not even a candidate country, how can a country like an old aristocrat like Yan be willing? It's just that the Yan army really can't defeat the Wu'an army, so there is no choice but to endure humiliation and seek peace, but the vast majority of officials, clans, and clans in the Yan country still don't look down on the plateau.

And Prince Dan's mentality towards the plateau is more complicated, although Tai Xiao Dan is also very dissatisfied with the plateau's forced Yan State to compensate a large amount of gold, grain and grass, and population, which makes Yan Guo's vitality greatly damaged, but Prince Dan's insight is more clever than others after all, firstly, although there is so much compensation, in fact, it is more Yan Guo's own findings, and secondly, Daijun is also a strategic barrier of Yan State, and Gao Yuan is also a reliable ally.

In addition, Tai Xiao Dan also admired the knowledge and talent of the plateau, because he knew that the plateau implemented the new law in Dai County, and suppressed Haoqiang with an iron fist, which had some implications of the Shang Dynasty's law change, and also made the prince Danzan unconvinced, but it was a pity that Yan Guo did not have such an iron-fisted person to preside over a law reform and innovation.

In fact, in the history of the Yan State, there was also a similar reform and innovation, that is, during the period of King Yan Zhao, the Yan State reached the most powerful period since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and once occupied almost the entire territory of the Qi State, which shocked the countries, but strictly speaking, this is not a real change, but can only be regarded as a new decree under the framework of the old system to rectify the rule of officials, recuperate, and train new troops, and more rely on the personal ability of King Yan Zhao to maintain the situation of the Yan State. But it didn't really change the old system of the Yan Kingdom. Because the conservative forces of the Yan State were too strong, and there was a lack of a resolute and powerful person to support the change, as a result, as soon as the king of Yan Zhao died, all the changes were changed, and the Qi State turned over and regained the country, and the Yan State also weakened again after a flash in the pan.

Therefore, Prince Dan is also quite curious about Daijun, and wants to come to Daijun to see the effect of the plateau's transformation with his own eyes, and at the same time to investigate how much strength Daijun has, and whether it is necessary for Yan to form an alliance with Daijun. At this time, the second batch of 300,000 stone grain and about 150,000 people compensated by the Yan State to Daijun had been gathered and delivered to the Wu'an army stationed in Juyongsai. And the crown prince Dancai made a request to Yan Wangxi and wanted to send an envoy to Daijun. And after this defeat, Yan Wangxi was also a lot lazy, and he did not refuse Tai Xiaodan's request. In addition, Tai Xiaodan does have some things that he wants to discuss with Gao Yuan.

After the two of them saw the ceremony, Gao Yuan also introduced the officials of Dai County to Tai Xiao Dan one by one, and after everyone saw each other, after a bit of noise, Prince Dan recruited a person from among his own subordinates, and solemnly introduced to Gao Yuan: "Wu Anjun, this gentleman's name is Jing Mingke, he is still a disciple of the Wei Guo Office, and he is a famous man that Ji Dan has just visited, and now he has been recommended by Ji Dan and worshiped as the secretary of my Yan State, and he is the deputy envoy of my envoy this time." ”

In fact, Gao Yuan had noticed this person for a long time, so he knew that there were three powerful men by Tai Dan's side, Xia Fu, Song Yi, and Qin Wuyang, all three of whom had seen Gao Yuan, but as soon as he saw Prince Dan this time, Gao Yuan found that on the side of Prince Dan, there was another person he had never seen before, and there were three people above him, so Gao Yuan guessed a few points.

With the introduction of Prince Dan, Gao Yuan knew that he had guessed correctly, and this person was Jing Ke, the most famous assassin in Chinese history.

Jing Ke bowed deeply to Gao Yuan and said, "I've seen Wu Anjun." ”

On the plateau, Jing Ke is about thirty years old, with long eyebrows and sideburns, bright eyes like stars, and extraordinary bearing. Of course, Gao Yuan knew that Prince Dan must have other intentions when he took Jing Ke on the envoy together, but he didn't say anything, he just returned the salute to Jing Ke and said with a smile: "Shangqing doesn't have to be polite." ”

Then Jing Ke met with the officials of Dai County, in fact, after listening to the introduction of Prince Dan, all the officials of Dai County were also very surprised, because Shangqing is the highest official in this era except for the monarch, although in this era, there are not a few people who directly enter the Shi from Buyi, but generally it is to reach the level of a doctor, at most it is worshiped as a lower secretary, and it is not that there is no cloth Yi who is directly worshiped as a Shangqing, but that are all well-known celebrities in the world, and Jing Ke is not well-known, although he is a disciple of the public office of Wei Guo, But Wei Guo has long been weakened and has become a vassal of Wei, and the honorific title has also been reduced from duke to earl, so Wei Guo's public disciple can only be regarded as a noble born in Jing Ke at most, and as soon as he entered Shiyan State, he was worshiped as a minister, which is extremely rare among other countries.

However, this must be a matter of Yan Guo, and it is inconvenient for all the officials to say anything, but they still follow the etiquette and greet Jing Ke one by one, but Jing Ke's speech etiquette is also very decent, and it does have a bit of the demeanor of a celebrity.

After the ceremony, Gao Yuan immediately ordered that the grain sent by Yan Guo be put into storage, and the people also had special arrangements, so Gao Yuan also specially found hundreds of Yan people who had migrated to Dai County in advance to receive them, and there were these living examples, so that this group of Yan people could rest assured. Of course, the plateau first let these Yan people see Prince Dan.

After seeing the people who originally belonged to his country, Prince Dan's heart was filled with emotion, because from the faces of these people, Prince Dan could see that they were living well in Daijun.

After arranging things, Gao Yuan invited Prince Dan into the city. On the way, Prince Dan also saw that construction was underway outside the Daidai County Town, and listened to the expansion plan of the highland price Shaodai County Town.

While talking and walking, everyone came to the city, and Gao Yuan also set up a feast in the mansion to entertain the prince Dan and Jing Ke, and even Li Yinghong also accompanied him as Mrs. Gao Yuan, and personally raised the knighthood to serve wine for Tai Xiao Dan and Jing Ke, which is also the highest etiquette for receiving guests in this era.

At the banquet, Jing Ke was also like all the celebrities who sought to establish himself in this era, talking loudly, talking about all kinds of ways of governing the country with the ministers of Daijun, evaluating the administrative gains and losses of various countries, character evaluation, and all kinds of inquiries about the banquet people, and also answering them one by one, and the words were decent, the attitude was generous and natural, and he would be happy when he came to drink, uninhibited, sometimes laughing, sometimes talking about wine, sometimes singing wildly, but becoming the protagonist of the banquet, stealing a lot of the limelight of the plateau and Tai Xiaodan. It's really like a celebrity. When the officials of Daijun saw it, although they felt that Jing Ke was a little flashy and exaggerated, he was not incompetent. Yan Guo worships him as the secretary, which seems to have some truth.

Gao Yuan has been letting Jing Ke perform, and he understands a little bit of Prince Dan's intentions in his heart, because in the future, if Jing Ke wants to assassinate the King of Qin, he must send an envoy to Qin as an envoy of Yan State, but not a cat and a dog are all envoys of a country, and he is an envoy to a strong country like Qin, so before that, Jing Ke must have something to show and prove that his talent is indeed enough to be an envoy of any country.

If Yan suddenly used a flat coat as the secretary of state, and let him take on the important task of envoying to the Qin state, it would be strange that Qin Wangzheng was not suspicious. And this envoy to Daijun, which is Jing Ke's first performance, and the effect is really good, which also proves that Jing Ke is indeed the best person to assassinate the King of Qin. Assassination is actually a fairly high-skill job, and it is not something that can be done by virtue of martial arts alone.

This time the banquet lasted for more than an hour before it was dispersed, and Gao Yuan also ordered someone to arrange Tai Xiaodan and Jing Ke to rest in the pavilion.

After returning to the inner room, Li Yinghong also smiled and said: "This Jing Kezhi is really interesting, he is the only one on the side of the Yan State Mission at the entire banquet to speak, and people who don't know are afraid that they will think that he is the envoy?" Prince Dan found such a person to come, and he also worshiped the important responsibility of Shangqing. ”

Gao Yuan said: "You are here to tell me how you have an impression of Jing Ke." ”

Li Yinghong thought for a while, and then said: "I see that his words are sharp, skillful in coping, and good at adapting, but there are too many empty words in his words, some of them are rhetoric, and there may not be much real learning, at most he is just a person who communicates and socializes, and it is more than enough to be a doctor, but it is a little too much to be a secretary, it seems that Yan Guo does not have any talent, or Tai Xiaodan has no knowledge, and was deceived by Jing Ke's eloquence." ”

Gao Yuan smiled and said, "I don't think so. ”

Li Yinghong said: "Oh! What do you think. ”

Gao Yuan said: "I can't say anything else, but there is one thing I can decide, that is, Jing Ke is definitely a master of swordsmanship, although I can't see his true strength yet, but I will never be worse there." ”

Li Yinghong was stunned for a moment and said, "Swordsmanship? How do you see that. ”

Gao Yuan said: "The first is his vision, no matter how much wine he drinks, he has always gathered and not dispersed, and his observation of details is very good, only people who have been practicing martial arts for a long time will have such a gaze; The second is his fingers, all ten fingers are very slender, and the calluses are thick, since they are the thumb, index finger and tiger's mouth, the calluses are thicker, only if you hold the hilt of the sword for a long time, you can only have such a phenomenon, so I can conclude that he is definitely a master of swordsmanship. ”

Li Yinghong thought about it carefully, nodded his head, and said, "What you said seems to be right, but I didn't pay attention." But even if Jing Ke is a master of swordsmanship and has even studied the art of war, it does not prove that he is capable of serving as the secretary, unless he can show himself on the battlefield. ”

Gao Yuan smiled: "I just tell you, don't think of Jing Ke as an eloquent material, there are still a lot of secrets hidden in him, don't be deceived by his superficial situation." ”
