Chapter 533: Think about how to help him settle the matter
“Cough cough... cough... cough cough cough...”
Situ Han covered his mouth tightly with his hands, as if trying desperately to suppress the urge to cough that kept rising up his throat, but it was all in vain.
His body trembled involuntarily, and every cough seemed like he was going to cough out his lungs. His originally pale face now looked abnormally red due to the violent coughing.
Zhao Wuji, who was standing aside, looked at Situ Han in such pain and couldn't help feeling worried.
He quickly picked up the kettle on the table and poured a glass of water. Then he quickly walked to Situ Han, handed him the glass, and said with concern: "How about I give you a leave, and you can go and have a good rest..."
Situ Han took the cup of water, then tilted his head back and drank the hot water in one gulp.
This cup of hot water seemed to inject a stream of warmth into his body, making his chest feel warm and slightly relieving his physical discomfort.
He exhaled heavily, a slightly pale smile appeared on his face, and he said: "I just can't sit still..."
As he spoke, Situ Han took out a letter from his pocket, handed it to Zhao Wuji, and continued, "Take a look at this."
Seeing that Situ Han was unwilling to rest properly, Zhao Wuji sighed helplessly. This was not the first time that Zhao Wuji had persuaded Situ Han to rest for a while and take good care of his body, but Situ Han politely refused every time.
It can be said that Zhao Wuji is the person who knows Situ Han best in the entire Yeyou Division and the entire Yongguo.
Because it was he who brought Situ Han to Yongguo and it was also his strong recommendation that enabled Situ Han, a non-Yongguo native, to enter the Yeyou Division and even rise to the position of deputy chief.
Therefore, Zhao Wuji also knew that the reason why Situ Han was unwilling to rest was because Situ Han was afraid that the anger in his heart that was forcing him to live would be released if he relaxed.
However, Zhao Wuji knew better in his heart that with Situ Han's current physical condition, even if he continued to struggle like this, he would not be able to hold on for long.
Although Zhao Wuji has been looking for a miraculous medical prescription that can cure Situ Han, he has never found any.
Because Situ Han’s injury is not that simple!
After sighing helplessly, Zhao Wuji reached out and took the letter handed to him by Situ Han.
After Zhao Wuji finished reading word for word, he suddenly raised his head, stared at Situ Han with a sharp gaze, and muttered, "This is going to be difficult!"
Situ Han nodded silently.
This letter was sent by Li Zhi from Baiwu City.
Li Zhi knew very well that the diplomatic mission to Wei was an extremely important matter, and he didn't know how many eyes were watching him in the court.
Not to mention that many of the envoys were sent in by some important figures in the court to gild their reputations.
Now only Li Zhi has returned alone. No matter what the reason, this is a major event that is enough to cause an uproar in the court.
As the person in charge of this mission to Wei, Li Zhi must be held responsible for this matter.
Even Li Zhi couldn't be sure what kind of punishment he would face once he returned to the capital.
Therefore, Li Zhi decided to send the information back to the Night Tour Division headquarters first.
After all, he was originally from the Night Patrol Division. Now that he was back, it was natural for him to report the situation to the headquarters.
Moreover, Li Zhi also knew that whether it was Situ Han or Zhao Wuji, they were both extremely protective of their own people.
Therefore, Li Zhi believed that even if he was really going to be punished, they would definitely try their best to mediate for him.
As expected, after Zhao Wuji read the message sent back by Li Zhi, he looked distressed. As for his own people in the Night Tour Division, he naturally wanted to protect them.
But Li Zhi's matter was indeed too big. His mission as an envoy to Wei was a major event that attracted the attention of the entire country.
In this situation, even if Zhao Wuji wanted to solve the problem quietly without alerting others, there was no way.
After pondering for a long time without any results, Zhao Wuji angrily slammed the table and said, "Damn it, why didn't he just die outside? He's the only one back here, what the hell is this!"
Situ Han naturally knew that Zhao Wuji was just talking, and he didn't really mean it in his heart. He smiled and said, "You say so, but if everyone really can't come back, I'm afraid you will be the most anxious person."
Zhao Wuji rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "That guy was able to come all the way back from the Wei Dynasty alone, which shows that he has some skills. It would be a pity if he really got caught outside..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Wuji turned to look at Situ Han and asked directly, "Alright, stop talking about those useless things. Tell me quickly, how can we help this kid calm down..."
After hearing Zhao Wuji's question, Situ Han did not answer immediately, but lowered his head and thought for a while.
After a long while, he slowly raised his head and said, "The mission to Wei is a matter of great importance. I don't know how many people are watching us. It's impossible to fish in troubled waters. The only thing we can do now is to emphasize Li Zhi's achievements..."
Situ Han paused and continued, "Then, we must proactively inform His Majesty and ask Him to issue an order for punishment..."
Zhao Wuji heard this and continued Situ Han's words, "Your Majesty is a man of great courage. A delegation of more than a hundred envoys is nothing in His Majesty's eyes. As long as Li Zhi can bring honor to our Yongguo in the Wei Kingdom, His Majesty will certainly not punish him severely!"
Situ Han nodded and replied, "That's right. When the time comes, the merits and demerits will be balanced. Although Li Zhi won't be rewarded, it would be best if this matter can be settled."
Zhao Wuji's eyes flickered, and he already had a plan in mind.
He said, "Then I will first go to the palace to meet His Majesty and report everything..."
…
Just when Zhao Wuji and Situ Han were trying every possible way to help Li Zhiping, Li Zhi also encountered trouble.
He stared at the three uninvited people in front of him, and a sense of doubt and alertness surged in his heart.
These three people were wearing green tights specially made by the Night Patrol Division. Li Zhi guessed that these three people should be members of the Night Patrol Division responsible for Hanzhou.
But he did not let his guard down.
His eyes slowly swept over the three people, two men and one woman. The two men looked quite young and immature, while the woman, although plain in appearance, exuded a sense of competence.
Considering the positions of the three of them, the woman was standing in the middle, and the two men beside her were obviously led by her.
Li Zhi then set his gaze on the woman and asked in a deep voice, "I wonder what brings you here today?"
Hearing Li Zhi's question, the woman quickly clasped her fists and saluted, introducing herself: "I am Liang Feng, whose Earthly Branch is Gui. These two are members of my team, Zhang Lang and He Qiao."
As they spoke, Zhang Lang and He Qiao also hurriedly bowed to Li Zhi.
Seeing this, Li Zhi nodded slightly, then he continued to look at Liang Feng, waiting for her to further explain her purpose.
