Through Time Chapter 97

Inside Xianyang City, the Confucius Mansion.

Kong A is frowning slightly at Zhao Xie across the street.

He had gone straight back to his mansion last night from meeting Qin Shi Huang.

He was going to invite a wide range of great scholars from all over the world to prepare for the study of spreading the new script.

It must be said that Qin Shi Huang’s move hit him on the soft spot.

Although the world was now unified, there was still some turmoil, otherwise Qin Shi Huang would not have had to tour the world several times.

There were also undercurrents among the various schools of thought.

Everyone wants to be at the top.

But just when he was busy, Zhao Xie came to ask for an audience.

Although Kongjia had already let Zhao Xie go last time, he could not refuse to see the other party, who was still extremely special after all.

“I don’t know what is the reason for Gongzi Xie’s visit to the door, ah?”

Kongjia asked.

Of course, the heart had already made up its mind that it would not accept the other party as an initiated disciple.

Who let him dare to denigrate Zhao Lang to his face.

Zhao Xie said with extreme decorum that

“I heard that you have returned to your residence, so I came to pay a visit to greet you, and I wonder if you are well these days.”

“By the way, I have also brought some ginseng from Goguryeo to greet you, sir.” (Should be Minzi chaoxian, a sensitive word.)

Kongjia’s eyes flickered slightly, and his heart grew more and more displeased; this man talked a good game, but he had actually sent someone to spy on his mansion.

Indifferently, he said.

“Lang’er has taken care of the old man extremely well, but I don’t need to bother with your son’s rest.”

Hearing these words, a hint of discomfort flashed across Zhao Xie’s face.

There were a few moments of humiliation in his heart; if not for the other party’s fame, how could he, as the crown prince of a country, have stooped so low.

But on his face he smiled and

“To be appreciated by Sir, Gongzi Lang is truly a blessed man.”

Hearing the other party praise Zhao Lang, Kong A’s mood was then better, nodding and smiling.

“Long’s son is indeed good.”

Zhao Xie went on to say at this time that

“But after all, Gongzi Lang is only one person, so there are inevitably times when he cannot take care of himself.”

“My disciple will soon return to his homeland as well, and cannot visit you often.”

“It just so happens that I have a younger brother who is at the right age to pursue his studies and would also like to serve at your side.”

It was then that Kong A understood in his heart that it was for his younger brother to seek education.

Without any hesitation, Kong A refused to, outright.

“I am old and my heart is not as strong as it used to be, now I just want to teach Long’s son well.”

“Gongzi rest, I am afraid that this matter is difficult for the old man to agree to.”

Zhao Xie looked at Kongjia’s sturdy physique, where there was no trace of weakness.

With a thought in his mind, he made a sad look and said that

“Sir, this time when my disciple goes back, I don’t know the future of life and death either.”

“If anything happens to my disciple, my first will be the last of the bloodline.”

“If great things come to pass, I will not dare to forget your kindness.”

Kongjia frowned at this, but looking at Zhao Xie, he sighed and said.

“Gongzi Xie, what is the character of your compatriot brother?”

At once Zhao Xie was overjoyed and said.

“My brother is of extremely good character, and tomorrow my disciple will bring him to you, sir.”

Kongjia thought for a moment and got up and said.

“I am going back to the manor tomorrow, so I will go with you.”

“If your character is not impaired, you can follow me.”

Zhao Xie was instantly overjoyed and said that

“Many thanks, sir.”

At that moment, inside a courtyard in Xianyang City.

Zhao Jie was speaking with discontent that

“Uncle Shou, where is my big brother, telling me to come back in such a hurry, yet he himself is nowhere to be found.”

Uncle Shou laughed bitterly and

“Gongzi Jie, Gongzi Xie he originally wanted to take you to see a great scholar today.”

“And yet you did not return. When he returns, you will have to explain yourself well.”

Zhao Jie waved his hand impatiently to the

“I’m almost crowned, what’s the point of going into school!”

“Alright, I’m going back to my room to rest, bring me in some tea.”

Looking at Zhao Jie’s back as he left, Shou Bo could only let out a deep sigh.

Gongzi Jie and Gongzi Xie were blood brothers, but the two were worlds apart.

Shou Bo left helplessly, unnoticed by anyone, just a short distance away from them on the roof of the house.

There were several figures lying on their backs.

“House Master, there are thirteen people on the outskirts of this courtyard, and dozens inside by a rough look.”

“I didn’t dare to go too deep, for fear of being discovered.”

Going to death whispered to Zhao Lang, who was on the side.

“This place is too heavily guarded, family head, it’s not good for us to do it.”

Go to Death and the others had received training and some new-fangled tools, but it had not been long after all.

There was no way to sneak in under these circumstances.

Zhao Lang, however, was not too surprised, at least he was a descendant of a country, this bit of strength was still there.

He had no intention of breaking in hard either.

“You guys wait here, I’ll go take a look.”

When Zhao Lang finished speaking, he twisted around and disappeared into the night.

This scene directly caused the few people who went to die to stare in awe.

They hadn’t even seen Zhao Lang’s movements clearly just now!

Zhao Lang followed Zhao Jie’s direction and felt his way into the courtyard.

If the other party had brought a large amount of money, generally speaking, it would only be placed in two places.

The treasury and the residence.

The treasury was heavily guarded, so Zhao Lang planned to check out the other party’s residence first, before going to the treasury.

Determine the location first, and then find a way to bring it out.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard Zhao Jie’s voice.

“Get out! Get out of here, all of you!”

Soon after, there was the sound of something being dropped and

“Big Brother Big Brother! Everything is big brother! ”

“I brought back 10,000 taels of gold and didn’t thank me! And blames me for offending the farming family!”

“Now the Nong family is just a dead dog! What is there to fear!”

“How dare you let me follow some great scholar into school! Isn’t it just because he’s worried that I’ll stay there and compete with him for a position!”

“I’m also of Zhao blood! Why can’t I compete for that position?”

Zhao Lang listened in wonder from the rooftop, and it wasn’t as if the Zhao Kingdom had been destroyed without reason.

The country had fallen, and instead of thinking about how to work together to restore the country, they were actually counting on each other.

However, the other side also cursed the peasant family, which could not be tolerated.

And with such a grumpy look, it was not good for him to go in and search.

Luckily, there was soon a servant, carrying tea towards the courtyard.

Zhao Lang’s eyes instantly lit up and he took out the small bottle Ji Wushuang had given him.

Just how was this going to be put in?

The servant had arrived at the door of the room by this time and said that

“My lord, the tea…”

“Get out!”

An angry roar came from the room.

The servant was so frightened that he put his tea on the doorstep and said that

“My lord, the tea is at the door!”

And then fell away.

Zhao Lang’s eyes lit up and he directly rolled over, quickly pouring the small bottle of medicine in.

Then he returned to the roof once again.

One down and one up, in the blink of an eye.

Soon, Zhao Jie seemed to be tired of cursing.

Walking to the door, he picked up his tea and spoke viciously, saying

“I can’t believe they didn’t even bring it in! Damn it!”

With that, he took a big gulp.

Zhao Lang’s heart was immediately at ease, he remembered that the medicine worked quickly and only waited for the other party to fall asleep before he went searching.

However, not long after, Zhao Lang felt a hint of something wrong.

For not only was the other party not sleeping, but he seemed to be getting more and more energetic.

“Something’s not right, has this stuff expired?”

Zhao Lang puzzled.

Just then, a servant came running over and

“Gongzi Jie! Gong Zi Xie has returned with the great Confucian, asking you to hurry to the front courtyard!”
