rape

In the small building with flowing water sits a teenager about twelve or thirteen years old. He is wearing an ordinary little blue shirt. The Great Qin Tingwei Li Si.At this time, the mainstay of the Great Qin Dynasty, who has always been famous for his iron and blood wrists, was watching the young man play chess seriously with his chin resting on his shoulders.

Li You looked up at Li Si, and slowly pushed the chess pieces out. Looking at Li Si's gradually narrowing eyes, the smile on the corner of his mouth became wider and wider.

With a clear click, Wujiu Heizi seized the general in one fell swoop.

"Father, you lost." Li You also looked at Li Si with his chin in his hands, with a relaxed look.

Lord Tingwei, who had lost eleven games in a row, was depressed. He glanced at his son who was good-looking but also cunning, and said firmly for a while, "You must have cheated."

Li You spread his hands and said helplessly: "Father, you are also a writer of Qin Lv after all, you know the crime of slander."

"If it wasn't for cheating, it would be impossible for you to improve your chess skills to this level overnight." Li Si reached out and knocked on the chess pieces, squinting at Li You, showing the usual aggressiveness.

Li You was not in a hurry, and said with a stern look: "Father, I didn't say that I didn't cheat, but you have been staring at it, have you seen any tricks of my cheating? Since you can't see it, why do you say that?" Am I cheating?"

"It is not necessary to produce solid evidence for everything. Conspiracy, slander, and desire are also crimes, and it is easier to kill people with these crimes."

"But I am an upright person, and I also believe that father, you are also an upright lawyer and courtier, father, do you think so?" Li You asked seriously.

"Cough." Li Si raised his hand and coughed twice, looking away in embarrassment, he nodded calmly, "Well, well, you won this game."

Only then did Li You laugh as if he had succeeded, stretched out his hands and hummed a little tune, and slowly restored the chessboard, "I accept it, father."

"En." Li Si looked at the game of chess and his own son, and thought to himself, who did this kid learn to be so sanctimonious recently, and he knows how to put a high hat on others?But to be honest, he does look like a father.

Li You cleaned up the chess game, and suddenly said casually: "Father, do you still remember the most famous dog meat shop in the north of the city?"

Li Si held his hand for a while, and looked up at Li You who was indifferent, "Why, do you want to eat dog meat?"

"No, a few days ago I took a few attendants out to visit Song Ji Fang, and I happened to pass by that place, and saw a large group of imperial guards surrounding the dog meat shop, I was very curious at the moment, could it be that the generals of the Qin Dynasty can't even afford meat now? ? Are you rushing to the street to loot the dog meat shop? So I watched the excitement for a while."

Li Si pondered for a moment, raised his eyes and took a deep look at Li You. After a long time, he said in a deep voice, "Are you going to visit Song Ji Fang?"

Li You replied seriously: "Father often said that a young man must withstand the temptation of money and sex in order to be strong without desire, but if I can't taste the temptation of money and profit and see the color of the world, how can I be able to see it?" As usual?"

Li Si's hand paused, and he said for a while: "The temptation of money? Are you going to gamble?"

"Young people need to experience more." Li You had a righteous look on his face.

"Oh." Li Si glanced at him, nodded but did not continue to ask.

"But I want to know how the shop was closed down?" Li You answered the words just now with perseverance.

Li Si touched his chin lightly with his hand, and said slowly while thinking: "Maybe it's because their guys didn't follow the laws of the Great Qin Dynasty when they killed dogs, or maybe it's because the location of their shop violated a taboo, such as suppressing the king's spirit? Or maybe their shop I ran away with the money, and I haven’t paid taxes for a long time, there is always a reason.”

"I've heard that it's their guys who used the name of raising dogs in the yard... to collect black dog blood... to feed evil spirits." When he said this, Li You, as the son of a lawyer from the Qin Dynasty, felt that something was true. The can be unspeakable.This reason is too casual, and it really doesn't show the rigorous attitude that splashing dirty water should have. Li You, as a promising young man who can read a thousand characters at the age of five, memorize military books at the age of six, and go shopping in brothels at the age of ten, he feels that he has received a lot of attention. Kind of insulting.

Hearing his words, Li Si was surprised, "It's really time for a serious and thorough investigation. It's too late to shake the country and society."

One of the vulture chess pieces in Li You's hand was not steady and fell on the chessboard. He looked up at Li Si. There are always some things in this world that make people feel that they are still too short to know.The long-eyed Mr. Li said seriously: "I have been taught."

Li Sidan just smiled and said nothing, you are still decades away from telling me what you want to say.

"No way." Li You suddenly said with a long tail, "I saw the teacher in the mansion a few days ago, he came back from nowhere, his clothes were stained with blood, and he carried a few catties of dog meat in his hand. I asked him Where did he go, he said he went out for a walk."

"Well, when I went out for a casual walk, I suddenly wanted to eat some dog meat, and then bought it back." Li Si said calmly, "This is very common."

"Father, don't you think it's too much of a coincidence? The teacher just bought dog meat, and the shop said there was something wrong with it and was closed down by a group of guards."

"Did you eat that dog meat?" Li Si asked suddenly.

Li You was distracted by Li Si's sudden question, he shook his head, "No."

Li Si snorted, turned his head and continued to stare at the chessboard, "In this case, the teacher who ate the dog raised by the evil spirit is not in a hurry, what are you afraid of if you don't eat?"

Li You choked for a moment, and said for a while, "It's not a dog raised by Xie Chong."

Li Si seemed to think about it, and said after a while: "It's about the same."

Li You felt as if he was being ridiculed by a powerful force again, with a thorn in his back and a thorn in his throat, he was speechless for a moment.

After a while, Li You suddenly suppressed Li Si's hand that was moving the chess pieces. Li Si raised his eyes to look at him without knowing the so-called, "What's the matter? Did it suddenly occur to you that you ate a few mouthfuls of that dog meat?"

"Father, I want to become an official." Li You said word by word, looking at Li Si with brilliance in his eyes.

Li Si frowned slightly, and asked for a while, "Is the money given to you not enough?"

"No, the power given to me is not enough." Li You smiled lightly, the teenage boy's face was still somewhat childish, but his eyes were shining brightly.

Li Si thought for a while, put down the chess piece in his hand, sat upright, coughed lightly twice and cleared his throat, thinking in his heart whether it is better to move it with emotion or to understand it with reason, and after a while he felt that it was still better. It's better to have a beating. In all matters between father and son in the world, it's impossible to know each other without beating.In this regard, he still needs to learn more from Wang Jian.

Li You seemed to read Li Si's mind and said: "Father, I learned martial arts at the age of seven, held a gun at the age of eight, and shot the sky wolf in the northwest at the age of nine."

Li Si was silent for a while, and it was better to understand.He looked at Li You very lovingly, "Well, father will tell you a story."

"Can I not listen?" Li You asked quite seriously.

"I'm afraid I can't. This is all thought up for my father's life in the court. You can listen to it as much as you can." Li Siqing coughed and asked: "There is such a young general whose father is from the Six Kingdoms. Famous generals who can be counted on the fingers of one's fingers, with outstanding achievements and few failures in his life, he himself was born into a wealthy family, and his family clan is prominent in the court and the public. He himself became famous at a young age and was deeply appreciated by the monarch. Become famous in one battle. Can you guess who this person is?"

"Wang Ben." Li You replied without any hesitation.

Li Si smiled, and he shook his head lightly, "No, no, what my father said is Zhao Kuo, the famous general of Zhao State, the son of Ma Fujun Zhao She, Zhao Kuo." He was afraid that Li You would react and explain, "That's right In the Battle of Changping, 40 Zhao people were killed by Bai Qikeng, Lord Wu'an, and he was a world-renowned young general."

"..."Okay, Zhao Kuo. "

"What do you think of Zhao Kuo?" Li Si asked Li You with a smile.

"By my own efforts, I ruined the foundation of Zhao Guo for hundreds of years, and made Baiqi Rentu famous. I am afraid that his name will be recorded in the annals of history for thousands of years." Li You thought for a while, and added a sentence, "The only respectable There is only one thing I am afraid of, Zhao Kuo did not surrender in a death battle, and the so-called 40 Zhao people surrendered to Qin is also a matter after his death."

Li Si asked: "Why don't you mention the Battle of Changping? Zhao Kuo also killed nearly 20 soldiers of Bai Qi's Qin army."

"20 people are worth 40 people?" Li You spread his hands and said, "This is probably the worst debt in the world."

Li Si chuckled and said: "Success or failure is a hero. There are indeed few fair people in this world."

"If you can really judge a hero by success or failure, then that is the real fairness." Li You retorted indifferently.

"Okay, okay." Li Si didn't argue with Li You much, after all, there was really nothing to argue about.He was quite touched and said: "You can also see that Zhao Kuo and Wang Ben are indeed alike. They are also fathers with outstanding military exploits, the same background as generals, the same youth became famous, and they are also highly appreciated by the king. But why did Zhao Kuo lose? But Wang Ben can be famous all over the world?"

"Some things require talent, and different aptitudes cannot be compared."

"But actually speaking, Zhao Kuo's qualifications are not much worse than Wang Ben's. In some respects, Zhao Kuo is even better than Wang Ben. Zhao Kuo has been familiar with military books since he was a child. Wu, he has profound insights into the art of war, and in some respects he even made his father feel ashamed. At least in terms of aptitude, he is no worse than Wang Ben, right?"

"Zhao Kuo talks about soldiers, that's not what his father said. It's just empty talk."

"It's just a joke between father and son. Because of a defeat, people in the world will be the most attached to it. After a long time, people will take it seriously. When I can't compete with you, I often say that you are only good at your tongue." Li Si glanced sideways. He glanced at Li You.

"However, before Zhao Kuo sent troops, his mother played to the King of Zhao and said that if Zhao Kuo was defeated, he begged his clansmen not to commit crimes. How do you explain this?" Li You asked, meeting Li Si's gaze.

"Thinking about the situation at the time, who dared to say that he was sure of a battle that the veteran Lian Po couldn't win? Who didn't go with the heart of death when he said he would win? This family is indeed human, and I think this shows that Zhao Kuo is not reckless to some extent."

"But he still lost. In the first battle of Changping, 40 people died, and 40 people died in vain, only a hundred and ten young men were released back to Zhao."

Li Si casually put down the chess piece in his hand, and said softly, "I would like to ask you, if Wang Ben were to face the master Tu Baiqi in the first battle, how do you think the battle will go?"

Li You was rarely silent.After a long time, he looked up at Li Si, "Wang Ben won't rush forward, he won't take orders at all."

Li Si smiled, and said lightly: "But you forgot, Zhao Kuo was ordered in the face of danger. Everyone in the Battle of Changping knew that we should use the cheap method to fortify the wall and clear the country to die, but Zhao's national strength at that time could not support the army for a protracted war The domestic gentry complained about Lian Po even more. Zhao Wangdan succeeded to the throne at a young age. This situation of internal and external troubles was almost desperate for him. At that time, only Zhao Kuo in the whole country was willing to fight to the death. Only he can fight to the death."

"He died in battle." Li You said calmly.

"Yes, Zhao Kuo died in battle, and he didn't surrender until he died." Li Si looked at Li You, "How did Lord Wu'an Bai Qi die? After the Battle of Changping, Wangling attacked Handan, and the situation was very good. King Qin sent Lord Bai Qi of Wu'an Qi once again sent troops to destroy Zhao. Lord Wu An said he was sick. How did he tell the king of Qin? Although Qin defeated Changping, more than half of the soldiers died, and the country was empty. , Destroy the Qin army. The King of Qin felt that Bai Qi made false excuses, demoted him to the rank of [-] ranks, demoted him to the lowest rank of soldiers, expelled him from the city, and finally put him to death."

"After Changping, more than half of the soldiers died, and the country was empty." Li You read it again, and said after a long time, "Zhao Kuo also tried his best. After all, the opponent is Lord Wu'an Baiqi. It is not bad to be able to do this."

"But he's still dead." Li Si said lightly, "Whether it's a rare general or a mediocre talent with no reputation, Zhao Kuo died in battle, but Wang Ben, who is also in a similar situation to him, gained fame and guarded the country for the emperor. .”

"It's just different fortunes." Li You said slowly after pondering for a while.

Li Si suddenly changed his brisk tone and said: "Then have you thought about another situation? If Zhao Kuo met Bai Qi, his father Zhao She had not died yet, Zhao Guo was not so embarrassed at that time, and Zhao's father and son together Going into battle just like Wang Jian and Wang Ben's father and son, how is the battle going?"

"You can't say that." Li You frowned, "There are different fortunes, and each person has his own destiny."

"It's just an analogy." Li Si sighed softly, "The battle of Changping cannot be repeated, and Wang Ben is not Zhao Kuo after all. Now that Wang Jian is not dead, Qin's national power is at its peak. Wang Ben led the army when he was young. A generation of famous general Wang Jian personally taught him how to fight. Wang Jian knew better than anyone else what his son Wang Ben lacked on the battlefield. He taught him everything and then resolutely let him go. The reputation of Wang Ben who spread the world is still too high, so the current Wang Ben is a truly well-deserved generation of famous generals."

"So..." Li You didn't loosen his brows, but frowned even tighter, "What does this have to do with my wanting to be an official?"

Li Si smiled and said: "Just to tell you, if you are not my father in the court, then you are Zhao Kuo, and if you have me, then you are Wang Ben."

"..." Li You seemed to feel the deep malice from Li Si.

Li Si continued to beat his son with great interest, "Of course, I won't help you. It's too vulgar to talk about blood relationship between you and me. Mainly, I don't think it's worth supporting you. The rewards are few and slow. It's better When you grow up, it will be worthwhile for you to marry a princess from the Qin family."

"..."

"Why don't you talk?" Li Si, who hadn't heard the voice for a long time, looked up at Li You, who looked at him quietly with no expression on his face, speechless.

Li Si reacted and felt that the words seemed to be too serious, and he tried to comfort him a few words, "You don't have to pay too much attention to it. Think about it, some people spend their whole lives running for power and wealth, and they are close to life and death several times. You can't marry a princess of the Qin family, and you don't even dare to think of an ordinary royal lady, but you have been able to get whatever you want since you were a child, you don't have to do anything, just call me 'Father', and you can Isn't it more fortunate to marry a real princess than the former type?"

"Are you talking about yourself?" Li You twitched the corner of his mouth.

Li Si took a deep look at Li You, "I can at least let my son marry Princess Qin."

"Father, you are really suitable to be a politician." Li You took a deep breath.

"That's amazing." Li Si felt very comfortable after teaching his son, and his smile was softer than usual. "Go, dig a jar of wine under the peach blossom tree in the yard, I suddenly feel a little greedy."

Li You rolled his eyes unbearably, left his seat and got up to dig wine jars in the yard.

Li Si looked at the back of Li You walking into the yard, and gradually withdrew his smile. He reached out and picked up the water glass from the side of the chessboard, lowered his head and took a sip. The water that had been cold for a long time had already lost its temperature. Biting chill.

Wang Jian hopes that Wang Ben can become a true general who stands alone, but he just hopes that his son will marry a virtuous wife and live a dull and mediocre life.

He had seen too many people who were astoundingly talented, half-life prosperous and half-troubled, and too many such people had died in his hands, all of them were so-called great talents in the world.If possible, he would rather Li You just be a dandy with no ambitions in his life, and after his death, he would say with a wild joke, "But now, half of my family's former guests are mediocre."

I hope so, Li Si sighed.

Whenever he thinks of Wang Ben, he inevitably thinks of Li Xin. Wang Jian is naturally devoted to Wang Ben, but not necessarily to Li Xin. After all, the heart of cherishing talent is no match for the connection of blood, so he let Li Xin follow him voluntarily. As a lieutenant general under Wang Ben's account, Qu Cai is a bit more talented, but firstly, he can be safe, and secondly, Li Xin can indeed learn something from following Wang Ben. Now he only hopes that there will be no problems with Li Xin. However, if the young mind is unwilling to make rash advances, it will be a disaster if they make a big mistake in one day.

As for Zhao Gao, he didn't really think about killing him, he just wanted to try it out, some people in this world seem to be unpredictable, but he still has to try it with his own hands, if Zhao Gao died like this It can only show that he is not worthy of this position. If he is not dead, he may be an opponent or an ally. In short, he should be careful.

Li Si glanced at the chess game on the table, reached out and gently picked off the opponent's Wujiu Heizi's general, he rubbed it slowly for a while, then looked back out the window.

What a wonderful world, what a beautiful scene.

...Yu Zishi almost searched the land of Xianyang in order to find Gao Jianli, but when he saw the man, he still had a group of "never expected" running through his mind.

According to Hu Hai's description, a white-clothed luthier appeared at the palace banquet two days ago. The sound of the piano was filled with flowing water and high mountains, white snow and sunny spring, which was quite artistic.Yu Zishi thumped a bit at that time, then he gathered his mood and decided to go see the musician in white.

Then he saw Gao Jianli in the orchid garden, wearing white clothes, sitting on the snowy ground with his qin in his arms, with indifferent eyes, plucking the strings carefully. In front of him were the eldest princess Huayang of the Great Qin Dynasty and the princess Liyang of the Great Qin Dynasty. The mood cannot be expressed in words.

Gao Jianli lowered his eyes, with a high-spirited and indifferent look, that appearance coupled with the cold music at his fingertips, it's nothing more than a banishment into the world.

At that time, Yu Zishi thought of Gao Jianli's blood dripping all over his body when he killed a dog with a knife, and now he felt old blood in his heart.Living up to expectations, the young and beautiful number one swordsman in Jiangbei finally embarked on the road of performing arts and selling himself.Eldest Princess Huayang, Princess Liyang, the group of dull-eyed court ladies behind them and even a few male guards all stared at Gao Jianli intently, the admiration in their eyes almost poured out, okay?It is said that men and women in Daqin love freely and the folk customs are open, but can you people in the royal family restrain themselves a little?

Yu Zishi settled behind the wall, stretched out his hand to support the wall, took a deep breath for a while,

OK, he accepted it.

Great Qin eldest princess Huayang, Gao Jianli has a very high vision. In the Qin Palace, only Huating can overwhelm her with her temper. Work hard, strive to become a consort and reach a new pinnacle in life, this road is a bright and smooth one for you!

While plucking the strings, Gao Jianli suddenly turned his head and looked in Yu Zishi's direction. He could only see a wall, and there was a moment of deepness in his eyes. ground hook.

Yu Zishi leaned against the wall, stretched out his hand to gently support his chin, seemed to be pondering what to do next, people couldn't be taken down by conventional methods, Yu Zishi still didn't dare to snatch the person that Great Qin Chang Princess liked, but It's impossible to let it go.

Just as Yu Zishi was thinking, at the very far corner, Huating was walking towards Liyang and Huayang wearing a black palace dress. She was obviously wearing a new dress, but the hem of the dress was cut open, and a The loose bowknot exposed half of her snow-white ankles, which was surprisingly smart and beautiful.The wound on her head hadn't healed yet, and there was still a thin white ribbon tied around it. Because of the injury, she didn't put on any makeup, and her face rarely looked a bit clean.

Behind her was a large group of maids and servants, all of them bowed their heads tightly and said nothing, but the large group of people was extremely quiet, only the sound of cloth rubbing could be heard as they walked over.

"See Your Highness the Princess." The sharp-eyed court ladies beside Liyang and Huayang saw Huating, and hurriedly bowed their heads to salute.

Eldest princess Hua Yang also looked back, surprised and said: "Huating? Why did you come out? The wound on your face has healed?"
