Chapter 113 There are people around King Qin who admire me

‘No! From what Aweng said, it seems that the great king of Xianyang called me a 'great talent' and a 'legendary sage'. How could he know me in Xianyang? ’

Liu Ji’s brain was running rapidly, imagining various possibilities. The most likely possibility he could think of was that someone who knew his reputation got into the King of Qin’s side and recommended him to the King of Qin.

He once admired Wei Wuji, Lord Xinling, and wanted to meet Lord Xinling very much and become a disciple of Lord Xinling. Unfortunately, when he grew up and was able to travel west to Wei, Lord Xinling had passed away many years ago.

Later, when he heard that Zhang Er, who had been a guest of Lord Xinling, was serving as the magistrate of Waihuang County in Wei State, and attracted many followers from all over the country, Liu Bang went to Waihuang and stayed with Zhang Er as a guest for several months.

During the time when he was a retainer under Zhang Er, he had come into contact with many capable people and strangers. Maybe some of these people had sneaked into King Qin's side.

‘The King of Qin said so of me, it is not a disaster to invite me to Xianyang. ’

Liu Ji was very happy to be evaluated as a great talent and a sage by the world-famous King of Qin, but he felt uneasy thinking about some of the rumors about the King of Qin.

According to rumors, the King of Qin was quite cruel and harsh. If their family went to Xianyang, then King Qin would harm them, how could they get away with it?

But the thought only flashed through Liu Ji's mind. He was afraid that an egg would kill a person and make him die for tens of millions of years.

He is already in his thirties and has yet to achieve anything. Although he doesn't show much concern on weekdays, he still hopes to achieve something in his heart.

If possible, who wants to be looked down upon by neighbors and family members, and who wants to be humiliated even when he brings his little brother home for a meal?

This invitation to Xianyang to watch the ceremony may be the only opportunity for him to turn around in his life. He must seize it, even if it involves risks, he must seize it.

Thinking in his mind, Liu Ji saluted Jiao Li: "Liu Ji has met the envoy!"

His demeanor was calm and casual, without any restraint, as if he was not facing the King of Qin in Xianyang. The messenger sent was just an ordinary neighbor.

This surprised Jiao Li. The magistrate of Peixian County, Liu Xuan and others were very cautious after knowing his identity. Only Liu Ji was different from ordinary people.

Liu Jixiao asked: "Your Majesty, those words of 'great talent' and 'legendary sage' are what the king said about Liu Ji?"

Jiao Li nodded and said: "That's right. ! Forgive me for presumptuously calling me 'Brother Ji'. There are many of you. Among the sages, Liu Ji is the most talented one. He can assist the country in governing the country and supervise the local area. If he meets one, he should be treated as a national scholar and not be treated lightly. "

Liu Ji was also shocked by Jiao Li's words. He thinks he has some talent, but not to this level.

Which guy was bragging in front of King Qin?

He never boasted this much when he was bragging to his younger brothers.

Could this person have any grudge against him, and deliberately praise him in front of the King of Qin to arouse the King of Qin's interest? After the King of Qin invited him to Xianyang, he found that he was not that powerful, and in a rage, he killed him. He dragged him out and chopped off his head.

Liu Ji thought about it carefully and felt that no one would be bored enough to do such a thing.

That person has all mixed up with the King of Qin. He can boast to the King of Qin about other people and arouse the King of Qin's interest. He must be a popular person in the eyes of the King of Qin and have overwhelming power.

If a person like this wants to kill him, he only needs an order to remove his family from Peixian County. He will not be informed in advance when doing it. How is it like asking the King of Qin to send someone to invite him to Xianyang now? !

Moreover, if that person praises him too much in front of the King of Qin, he will not have good results himself, and it will be even harder for him to escape the crime of deceiving the king. After thinking about it, Liu Ji thought that no one should have deliberately harmed King Qin around him, but they only praised him too much.

Liu Ji had an idea in his mind: Could it be that the person who praised him around King Qin admired him very much?

Just like he admires Wei Wuji, Lord Xinling!

Thinking about it, everything made sense, and Liu Ji was even more happy. He didn't expect that there were younger brothers who admired him around King Qin.

Liu Ji smiled and said: "The envoy is willing to call Ji 'brother'. It is Ji's blessing. How can it be presumptuous? Envoy, county magistrate, please go in and talk."

Liu Ji naturally acted as the host. Even if he invited Jiao Li into his home, he wouldn't Forgetting to follow all the younger brothers, he said to his eldest brother, Uncle Liu: "Brother, please entertain all of you brothers!"

This group of younger brothers is equivalent to risking their lives to come with him. How can they just entertain the distinguished guests and forget about it? them?

The younger brother did not want to cause trouble to Liu Ji and said, "Brother, just go and do your work. I will go home soon, why do you need to entertain me?"

Liu Ji glared at the younger brother, and then He took the hand of this young man and said seriously: "Brothers are willing to come with Liu Ji today because they are entrusting their lives and fortunes to Liu Ji. It is not possible to accompany you brothers at the moment, so I have to ask my eldest brother to entertain you."

"It's time to wait, I will have a drink with all the brothers!"

Liu Ji saluted all the younger brothers, and all the younger brothers were moved. This is the elder brother in their hearts. Even if he is about to become rich, there are still The nobles of Xianyang wanted to entertain them, but they also did not forget their brothers who had gathered together to eat meat and brag.

Hearing the conversation outside the hospital, Jiao Li felt more and more that Liu Ji was a very special person. He would definitely be favored by the king when he entered Xianyang in the future. He would soar into the sky and his future would be limitless. Fortunately, he did not conflict with him today.

After arranging the younger brothers, Liu Ji came to the living room, accompanied Jiao Li, the magistrate of Pei County and others with his father Liu Xuan and second brother Liu Zhong.

Looking at Liu Ji sitting in the last position, Jiao Li said heartily: 'After entering Xianyang, if we see each other again, I may have to sit with him. ’

After chatting for a while and warming up the atmosphere, Liu Ji asked curiously: "May I ask the envoy, how did the king know about us?"

Jiao Li smiled and said: "Actually, I don't know the reason. I'm just doing something under the king's orders, but Brother Ji might be able to guess something."

Liu Ji raised his eyebrows, more curious: "Can Ji guess it?"

Jiao Li. road: "When I came to Peixian this time, I not only invited Brother Ji's family to Xianyang to watch the ceremony, but also the Xiao He clan, the Fan Kuai clan, the Cao Shen clan, the Zhou Bo clan, the Yong Chi clan, and the Xia Hou Ying clan..."

The people mentioned by the Xianyang envoy were all from Peixian County, and almost all of them were people he knew. Xiao He was one year older than him and often took care of him, Xia Houying was his friend, and Fan Kuai was his younger brother. .

If some of them were not familiar with him, Liu Ji would have thought that the King of Qin invited these people to Xianyang to watch the ceremony because of him.

But this is definitely not a coincidence!

After thinking about all the possibilities that he could think of, Liu Ji felt more and more that the man who praised him next to the King of Qin was someone who admired him.

This person may also be from Peixian County. Even if he is not from Peixian County, he must be a neighbor from nearby villages, otherwise he would not know that there are so many people in Peixian County.

This person has not forgotten their fellow countrymen and elders even after he became prosperous, and specifically persuaded the King of Qin to send an envoy to invite them to Xianyang.

No wonder the Xianyang envoy said that he might have guessed that it was a fellow countryman or a nearby neighbor who did it.

Thinking about it this way, this trip to Xianyang should not be a big problem. It is more of a blessing than a curse.
