Lian Ke's words are like poppies, even if they are spoken in such a casual tone, they are extremely itchy.

Qin Jue couldn't help thinking that if it was him a month ago, he thought, he would agree.

Seeing that Qin Jue didn't answer, Lian Ke continued.

"You are the prince of Qin, the orthodox heir to the throne. Are you willing to be abolished like this? If you are not, we can help you, return you to the capital, and restore your position.

Even lend you troops directly to help you fight back! "

Qin Jue's eyes flashed when he heard this, "So Qin has already been infiltrated by the forces of Ze?" After all, it was sending him back to Beijing and helping him recover his identity, which is not something ordinary people can do.

Lian Ke smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about that, just say whether you want to cooperate or not! If you agree, our Majesty will canonize you as Lord Qin and treat you with the highest reward."

Qin Jue asked, "What if I don't agree?"

Lian Ke was stunned for a moment, then his face sank and he said, "Then there's nothing we can do. Useless people in our Ze Country can only end up being fed fish!"

After finishing speaking, his men opened the window so that Qin Jue could see outside.

At this time they were already on the lake, and when the doors and windows were opened, the cold wind came blowing with a strange smell.

In addition to their ship, there were twenty or thirty medium-sized cargo ships around. Because the lake was narrow, they had to line up. Looking at it this way, it was really a vast expanse.

After scanning the numbers, Qin Jue asked seemingly unintentionally, "The people on these boats are all Ze people who are lurking in Qin to run business?"

Lian Ke laughed, "How is that possible? It is not so easy to cross the national border, but they are all my people, and they are famous water bandits on the Wanjiang River! The entire Xiangcheng waters are my chassis! As for these boats , of course we snatched it from the caravan!"

Qin Jue immediately understood.

Xiangcheng is located on the border of Qin State, and the border line between Qin State and Ze State is Wanjiang.

Because Wanjiang is the junction of two countries, it is not easy to manage, and the cities near Wanjiang are mostly places where wicked people are exiled. There are three to five thousand people.

Sometimes they would harass Ze, and sometimes rob Qin. The emperors of the two countries had sent troops to encircle and suppress them, but because the curved river was too big, they couldn't even catch the shadow of the water bandits. Over time, they let it go like this. Bandits are neither Ze people nor Qin people, they are in a gray area, no wonder they will be used.

Qin Jue asked curiously, "So you are going to take your people to escape to Wanjiang now?"

"certainly."

Xu felt that Qin Jue was not threatening, and Lian Ke didn't hide it from him, and said directly.

"There was a lot of commotion just now to invite His Highness to come as a guest, and now, they are probably looking for us everywhere.

But it doesn't matter, as long as you pass the Red Sand Valley, you can go straight into the Wanjiang River. At that time, the Heavenly King and I will not be able to catch me! "

Red Sand Valley.

Upon hearing this, Qin Jue shook his head and chuckled.

When Xie Linlang called out that the other party was from Zeguo, he had already guessed where these people were hiding.

After all, the entire Xiangcheng is under his surveillance, and it is impossible for spies to mix in. The only possibility is that they have been hiding outside the city, hiding in a place that is convenient for inquiring news and can evacuate at any time.

He could only think of one such place, and that was the cargo ship they saw on the way when they came.

Since the other party came by boat, he would definitely leave by boat, and the best place to avoid being hunted and get away with it was Wanjiang.

But if he wanted to go to Wanjiang, he had to go through Hongsha Valley, so he didn't resist and let these people arrest him.

Anyway, the other party didn't seem to intend to kill him, and he also needed to know the details of the other party.

Seeing that Qin Jue was silent, Lian Ke smiled contemptuously, "Okay, don't try it anymore, it's useless, no one will come to rescue you, and you will never escape! After all, once I take you away, you will be on a merchant ship in an open and aboveboard manner." Now that he's gone, that group of people might still be searching from house to house in the city!

By the time they figure it out, we'll be long gone! So you don't have to take chances, just say the answer directly!

To cooperate, or to die? "

Under the cold gaze of the other party, Qin Jue smiled palely and sighed softly.

"Do I still have a choice? Right now I'm already a prisoner, what the emperor of Zeguo wants me to do, why not just say it."

Seeing that he was sensible, Lian Ke sneered a few times.

"You are refreshing, no matter what, I will not go around in circles with you, the reason why our Majesty wants to help you is because of your status as the orthodox direct descendant!

We can help you get the land of Daqin. As a reward, after the matter is completed, you need to honor the south of Qilian and the east of Boyang to Zeguo. This deal is a good deal, right? "

Qin Jue couldn't help laughing. To the south of Qilian and to the east of Boyang, this is equivalent to enclosing all the dangerous lands in the southeast of Qin State. How is it different from directly annexing them?

But on the surface he replied, "So that's how it is. Thanks to His Majesty Zeguo's attention, I, Qin Jue, have nothing. I don't think there is anything to be afraid of. As long as His Majesty can keep his promise and help me avenge me, let alone cede the land, I should bow down to Zeguo as a vassal." of."

His words really pleased Lian Ke greatly. It seems that Qin Jue is more knowledgeable about current affairs than imagined!

"Very good!" He laughed loudly, "If you have the heart, His Majesty will value you more! Come on, bring some wine! Today, I, Lian Ke, want to drink three hundred cups with the future Lord Qin!"

"yes."

His subordinates hurried to get the wine, the cabin they are in is very luxurious, there are all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and there is no shortage of wine and food.

Qin Jue didn't act in a hurry at all. The stand-in looked so similar to him that even he found it hard to tell if it was true or not. Presumably Xie Linlang wouldn't find out so quickly, maybe...she didn't at all. will find out.

So he has enough time to deal with the person in front of him, and also has enough time to take care of him.

Originally, he had no nostalgia for Qin, even if he knew that Lian Ke was from Ze, he would not have so much hostility, but what Xie Linlang said that night woke him up.

It's not that if you don't offend people, people won't offend you. How can others sleep peacefully on the side of the couch?

So Lian Ke and others must die!

Because Xiangcheng is his.

He doesn't care no matter how much Zeguo wants to plant eyeliners in Qin, but Xiangcheng is the only one where no one can get involved!

The wine was served soon, during which Lian Ke kept trying to persuade him to drink, and he kept telling Qin Jue the benefits of cooperating with them, and praised him for making such a wise decision!

Of course, in his opinion, Qin Jue has no reason to refuse. After all, he is a deposed prince, and it is a good thing from heaven that someone wants to help him!

Even if he will become a puppet of Ze Country from now on, so what? Isn't it better than being demoted and locked up in Xiangcheng to die?
