Great Qin State Teacher
Chapter 121
Jiang You's so-called help means digging out ancient books, looking for information, and searching for medicinal materials by himself. If he accidentally handed the wrong medicine, Jiang You would grind his teeth and look at him grimly.
Only at this time, Jiang You's aura will suddenly become stronger invisibly.
Xu Fu worked hard with a guilty conscience.He also knew that at such a time, he could never make a mistake. If he accidentally caused someone to lose his life, how would he deal with himself at that time?Xu Fu concentrated his attention. Even if there were many herbs he didn't know, he would forcefully flip through the classics and quickly identify them.After going back and forth like this, he was forced to memorize the contents of the ancient book abruptly.In a blink of an eye, looking outside the house, it was already nighttime.
I don't know what time it is.
Xu Fuchong beckoned to the waiter waiting outside the door, the waiter was overjoyed and hurried in, "Is Xu Fengchang all right?"
When Xu Fu came to his senses this time, he felt that he was going to faint from hunger. Fortunately, his stomach didn't directly lose its temper and grumbled in front of such a person.
"Why don't you come in and call me?"
The servant said aggrievedly: "The king has been urged several times, but Feng Chang is busy, and the servants dare not disturb at will."
Xu Fu was startled, was he that fascinated just now?
"Then I'll tell my senior brother, and I'll go back now." It's important to get the medicine to solve the disease as soon as possible, but he can't delay his rest time because of this. Xu Fu really doesn't want to come again, and an attendant doctor smiles at him , Said: You are out of energy.
The servant responded with a cheerful smile, and secretly wiped away the sweat in his heart.
If they don't bring them back, they will definitely be kicked away by the king.
"Senior brother, I'm leaving first." Xu Fu walked over to talk to Jiang You, but Jiang You didn't look up at all.Xu Fu called out a few more times, and only then did he realize why the servant didn't call him out.Xu Fu had no choice but to turn around and go out first. When he reached the door, Jiang You seemed to wake up suddenly, pointed at his butt, and yelled, "Junior Brother, have you become a spirit?"
Why are you so smart?
Xu Fu turned back with a dark face, lowered his head following his gaze, and then tore off the sticky thing on the back of his robe.
Long... strips of cloth?
Xu Fu was puzzled to find that the cloth strip still looked familiar, but its appearance had changed a lot from before.It gets longer.
Like a living creature with spirituality, he is constantly growing up... Xu Fu shivered unconsciously, and countless horror stories suddenly popped up in his mind.He pretended to be nonchalant and tucked the cloth strip into his sleeve, "Brother, you have been busy for a long time and your eyes are blurred, you should pay more attention to rest."
Jiang You looked again, and there was indeed nothing.Jiang You sighed, and said with a smile: "Maybe I'm tired, thank you brother for caring about me." After speaking, Jiang You showed a moved expression.
But other people in the palace were astonished.
Originally they only thought that Jiang You was a capable man specially invited by the king, but now they heard him address Xu Fu as his younger brother... Doesn't that mean that this person is also from the same family as the Guowei, and this one is also from a ghost valley?Immediately, the eyes of everyone looking at him changed, and they secretly warned themselves not to offend him casually.
Xu Fu walked out of the house, stepped through an arched door, walked out along the path, and walked on the wide avenue after a while.
The moon in the sky casts a cold light, and the night is a bit cold. Xu Fu put his hands into his sleeves, but felt that the cloth strip seemed to be shaking. He squeezed the cloth strip, and it was still soft, nothing strange feel.
really weird.
After returning to the bedroom, the servant who led the way had retreated consciously.Ying Zheng was sitting by the candlelight, still flipping through the bamboo slips in his hand, and said without raising his head when he heard footsteps, "Ah Fu, do you know where Qin has not suffered this time?"
"Is there any place that hasn't suffered any disaster?" Xu Fu was a little surprised.He thought that the whole country of Qin State was really in the predicament of drought, but now he was surprised to hear Ying Zheng say this suddenly.If there is a place that has never suffered, will this place become a place that everyone covets?Everyone can't wait to hide in that place?Xu Fu knew very well that it was impossible for a place to carry too many people, if it carried too many people, it would only make this pure land disappear quickly.
"You have been there before." Ying Zheng whispered.
Xu Fu keenly noticed that the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, with a hint of a smile.
It was just a flash of light, and two words quickly came to Xu Fu's mind, "Shu County?"
Ying Zheng nodded, "Exactly."
The expression on Xu Fu's face unconsciously relaxed a lot, maybe he didn't even realize that his expression was not so tense in front of Ying Zheng.
"From this point of view, the construction of Dujiangyan is not only correct, but also a great contribution."
"Yes." Ying Zheng no longer concealed the joy on his face, "I never imagined that Li Bing could make such a great contribution to Dujiangyan, and that only Dujiangyan could live a normal life when Qin was in such peril. Life." The joy on Ying Zheng's face slowly dissipated, he paused, and said: "However, this is not a long-term solution. If it does not rain for a long time, no one knows how long Qin can survive."
The relaxed look on Xu Fu's face also faded away.
Since arriving in the Qin Kingdom, he has almost never missed a divination. The shocked and admiring gazes from others almost made him think that in this era, there is nothing that he cannot predict.But until now, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.Even if Liuyao and gossip have already informed him of the disaster, so what?It was too late, and no rescue measures could be taken.Even an accurate time to escape from the disaster cannot be calculated.
"If someone forces me to sacrifice tomorrow..."
"You don't have to answer." Ying Zheng's face darkened. He really didn't like someone plotting Xu Fu behind his back. Once he was caught, he would definitely execute that person and let him know that not everyone can threaten at will. of.
Xu Fu shook his head at this moment, "No, I have to deal with this matter."
"Knowing that the man has uneasy and kind intentions behind his back, you still want to answer?" Ying Zheng frowned slightly.In fact, this matter may not be dangerous, but it is very likely that the other party will use it to pour dirty water on Xu Fu.Even if it was just splashing dirty water, Ying Zheng didn't want to see it.He is here to protect his people, and he will not allow anyone to lay hands on them.
However, Xu Fu obviously didn't realize that there was a big boss standing behind him at this time, so he followed his usual handling habits and made a decision in his heart, "He wants to sacrifice, so I will sacrifice, and now rumors are spreading around , If I don’t stand up, I’m afraid some people will say I’m guilty.” Every time someone kneels down to him and calls him a god, although Xu Fu feels a little ridiculous and a bit of a Jack Su, calling him a god is better than calling him a “disaster.” Star", and even wanted to put the drought on him.
If the tiger doesn't show its power, it really treats me as a cat, so I can rub it at will?
"Not only do I want to sacrifice, but I also want to direct the disaster to that person." Xu Fu said coldly.
Seeing his confident appearance, Ying Zheng swallowed back all the words he wanted to persuade.How did he forget?Now Xu Fu is not only his person, Xu Fu is also an independent person, Xu Fu will never wantonly rely on himself to avoid other people's calculations and backstabbing.
Xu Fu's pupils were shining brightly, and the depression during this period of time was wiped away.
Having an opponent hiding in the dark is more effective than taking tonics, and it immediately refreshes him.
Ying Zheng couldn't help but sighed in his heart, it seems that the widow has to thank him?
"If there is something that needs my help, just tell me." Ying Zheng couldn't help but said.It's not a good thing that Xu Fu is too independent. Ying Zheng felt that he didn't even have a place to go, which was too frustrating for him.
When Yingzheng was tempted at the beginning, he still thought that he would raise Xu Fu like a king next to him, so that he could spread his wings and fully protect Xu Fu under him. The relationship between them will gradually become like this.In front of Xu Fu, where can he find the dignity and momentum of a king?Think about it, the first time he threatened Xu Fu, saying that if he lied to him, he would hang him on the mast to dry... Thinking about this scene, it seems to have happened in the previous life.
The pressing pressure during this period made Xu Fu's mood unstable, and occasionally even sentimental, but this made him more delicate in some aspects.
For example, at this time, Xu Fu noticed that Ying Zheng's mood didn't seem very high.
"Ah Zheng, are you worried about me?" Of course Xu Fu would not have guessed what Ying Zheng was thinking, he just thought that Ying Zheng was worried about him.
After all, every time Ying Zheng showed displeasure to him, it was because he was worried about his safety.
Thinking of this, Xu Fu's thoughts froze suddenly... It seemed that Ying Zheng always cared and worried more about him.
"The widow is naturally worried about you." Seeing that Xu Fu was finally not so heartless, the emotions in Ying Zheng's heart were soothed, and he made a little progress. In the future, Xu Fu will be able to make rapid progress and realize that the widow It's hot love.
But after Ying Zheng finished speaking, he realized that Xu Fu was distracted again.
"Afu?"
"..."
Ying Zheng had to raise his voice, "Jun Fang."
Xu Fu was really unfamiliar with this name, but it was precisely because of the strangeness that it pulled him out of his thoughts.
"But thinking about the sacrifice?"
Xu Fu shook his head and blurted out: "I'm thinking, have I ever worried about you?"
Ying Zheng was startled, secretly amused in his heart.Xu Fu's ability to think this way can be regarded as progress... Ying Zheng suddenly felt a little sad.It was really hard to wait until Xu Fu cared about himself.
When Xu Fu said those words, he felt a little ashamed at first, but he has always been a tolerant person, and after saying these words, he completely tore off his shameful barrier.Xu Fu said, "I was worried about you."
"Oh? Really?" Ying Zheng really didn't realize that Xu Fu had ever worried about himself.Sometimes Xu Fu is just pretending to be cold on the outside, but the more he passes by, he can't help but feel that Xu Fu is actually cold on the inside, he just looks easy to deal with, but in fact he is still indifferent to the world. people.I don't know whether it has something to do with his growth environment and life experience.
Xu Fu quickly recalled it in his mind, and at this time he gained confidence, and said in a deep voice: "It's natural. You see, when you were crowned before, if I wasn't worried about you, I definitely wouldn't have counted so many divinations for you. , and helped you find Yuxi. I was worried about you at first, but who knew that you never took it to heart. I was worried about you that time. And later, I went to see Lu Buwei for you I was scared to death. Also, I will go to Sichuan for you to solve the flood. Also, I will go to Weihan for you..."
"..." Ying Zheng felt a little uncomfortable.He really wanted to say, obviously you wanted to go out for a walk, and also wanted to find those oddly shaped tripods.
But Xu Fu seemed to have opened a door at this time, and suddenly became eloquent, "Also, when you quarreled with Zhao Ji, I was also worried about you. And Hu Ji betrayed you, look at me I dare not get close to Hu Hai..."
Obviously you don't like children yourself.
"Also, I brought Lord Longyang to Qin because I was worried that Lord Longyang would be a great talent, and staying with King Wei would hinder your great cause of unification. Also, when Wei Liao came to Qin, , and told me that you are a bad person, with bad intentions, narrow-mindedness, and tyrannical temper, so let me not play with you, but I scolded Wei Liao..." When Xu Fu said this, his eyes widened. There was a trace of color flashing quickly.
Ying Zheng grasped the key sentence in this paragraph instantly, "When Wei Liao came to Qin, did you say these things to you? Did you turn cold eyes to Wei Liao later?"
Xu Fu paused.
Eh?He seems to have slipped his tongue...
What Wei Liao scolded Ying Zheng, he originally planned not to say it for the rest of his life, so as to add trouble to Ying Zheng.
Seeing that Xu Fu had been talking eloquently before, but suddenly stopped talking at this moment, Ying Zheng's heart skipped a beat, as if there was a small flame beating in his chest.He thought that his doting on Xu Fu was just a one-way devotion, and he didn't see Xu Fu being moved at all, but Xu Fu's devotion to him was even more subtle.
It turned out that there was such a story in it, which he didn't even know...
No wonder Wei Liao was always indifferent when he saw him afterwards.Just because of Xu Fu, the younger brother, and because of other men, he was scolded.
Ying Zheng felt that he could almost picture Xu Fu's appearance at that time in his mind. He must be cold and sharp, high above the ground, and suppressing his anger.Ying Zheng felt as if he had eaten nectar, it was too sweet, but it didn't make people feel greasy at all.The pleasure in Ying Zheng's heart was simply based on Wei Liao's pain.Hahaha... It turns out that Xu Xiaofu scolded his senior brother for the sake of the widow...
Ying Zheng selectively forgot that at that time Xu Fu had no idea who Ying Zheng was.
One is a stranger, and the other is someone who has slept with him, even if he is a friend with benefits, then Xu Fu must first protect the friend with benefits he knows.
The more Ying Zheng thought about it, the more he felt that maybe what Xu Fu said about the trip to Shu, Wei and Han was really for himself.
Even for this divination, Xu Fu was obviously exhausted, but he still wanted to hold the ceremony to quell the panic of the people, saying that it was for Xianyang and Qin, but why not for him... Ying Zheng thinks about it, it is simply I was about to think that actually Xu Fu loved him very much from the very beginning, but he just refused to say it out loud...
Xu Fu looked at Ying Zheng strangely.
Why did the expression on his face change so quickly?Looks a little... idiot?
Xu Fu coughed lightly, and resumed his cool posture, "Count it up, I also worry about you many times."
It was the same when he was in Sanchuan County. He also worried about what would happen if Ying Zheng got sick, and how Ying Zheng would go back to Xianyang first after leaving him. He was even more angry when he saw Ying Zheng met an assassin.
The balance in Xu Fu's heart returned to balance with a whiz.
See, I'm actually kind to him too.Xu Fu breathed a sigh of relief.That's good, it shows that I'm not a scumbag.
In order to prevent Ying Zheng from carefully asking what Wei Liao scolded that day, Xu Fu changed the topic in time, "Shu is safe and sound, so is there anyone in Qin who wants to go to Shu?"
"will not."
"Why not? If they all knew that Shu could escape the drought, wouldn't they swarm to Shu for refuge?"
Ying Zheng's face was calm, suppressing all the emotions in his heart, and cooperating with Xu Fu said: "No one will believe it. In the eyes of everyone, the road to Shu was difficult, and Shu was backward and poor. How could such a place hide?" Have you survived the drought? No one will believe it." Ying Zheng paused and said, "However, I firmly believe that if Zheng Guo can build a canal, Guanzhong will surely become another Shu land in the future, avoiding the disaster of severe drought. "
When Ying Zheng said this, he was still carefully observing the expression on Xu Fu's face.At this time, in Ying Zheng's heart, he had already unconsciously regarded Xu Fu as a person with a cold face and a shy(?) heart.
If Yingzheng was in modern times, then he would definitely know that Xu Fu was suitable for one word - cuteness in contrast.
Xu Fu didn't know that Ying Zheng's mind was wide open, he just felt that Ying Zheng's eyes were a little creepy.Uh, are you touched by me?Xu Fu silently took a step back, and then said: "I don't know if South Korea will regret it in the future, and just sent this talented Zheng Guo with both hands in front of you."
"King Han won't regret it, but Han Fei has already." Ying Zheng sneered.
Xu Fu almost forgot about Han Fei. When he heard the name suddenly, he suddenly remembered that Han Fei seemed...Damn it?Did he die in this crisis?
"Han Fei is still in the city now?"
"Yes, stay behind closed doors. Occasionally someone will come to deliver something." Ying Zheng said.Although Han Fei's temper was unpleasant, he was able to put it there.Ying Zheng simply let him go. If he survived, he might have a chance to be reused by him in the future. If he couldn't survive, it would be God's will, and he couldn't keep this person who was dedicated to Korea.
Xu Fu secretly wrote it down, thinking that he would go and take a look in a few days.
This Han Fei can be regarded as one of his "experimental products", just like the former Concubine Zheng and Lord Longyang.
"Wang... Ah Zheng can eat today?"
Ying Zheng raised his eyes and glanced at his abdomen, and ordered the palace servants to serve the food without saying a word, "Do you think it's hard? If it's hard, then don't go to help. There are so many people in the palace, why do you need to go in person?" help?"
Xu Fu shook his head, "I happened to learn something from my senior brother."
The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth curled up, and he smiled maliciously and said, "Learn how to do more interesting tricks?"
Xu Fu ignored him, and when the food was served, he immediately lowered his head and ate quietly. When he raised his hand to pick up the food, the cloth strip in his sleeve slipped out somehow.
Seeing this, Yingzheng couldn't help laughing and said, "Fengchang, the widow, still has such a childlike heart, but he hid a piece of cloth in his sleeve." Then he stretched out his hand and grabbed the piece of cloth.
After Ying Zheng grabbed the cloth strip, he felt that the appearance of the cloth strip was really weird. It seemed to be soaked in blood. When he looked closely, he felt that the blood seemed to flow.Just as he was distracted, Ying Zheng groaned.
Xu Fu almost knocked over the tableware in front of him, "What's wrong?" He turned his head quickly.
Ying Zheng pinched the cloth strip, "What is this thing?"
Xu Fu took a closer look, his eyes almost fell out.
Blood dripped from Ying Zheng's fingertips.
Xu Fu was upset, he just felt that this piece of cloth was a bit pretentious, if it really had the effect of witchcraft, then why couldn't it take shape?On the contrary, it is like a brown candy, sticking to my body every day, and even the new cloth strips I made always disappear inexplicably.
Xu Fu grabbed the cloth strip with a sullen face and ordered someone to fetch the tripod.
The palace servants carefully brought Xu Fu's treasured cauldron, Xu Fu threw the cloth into it, lit a candle, then put it aside, and he ignored it.
Ying Zheng curled his fingers, "Is that something you soaked in blood before? Are you trying witchcraft?"
Xu Fu was a little full after eating, so he put down his chopsticks, "Mmm. It's kind of evil." However, as an alchemist who always relied on fortune-telling and fooled people so that he couldn't find the north, he said that he was evil, like a bit of a big brother Don't talk about the feeling of the second brother.
Ying Zheng wasn't worried about Xu Fu's experiments behind his back, anyway, Xu Fu could grasp the speed, not to mention that even though Ying Zheng claimed to be well-informed, he was really a person with little knowledge in these aspects.
After eating, Xu Fu washed up briefly, then changed his robes and lay down on the bed with Ying Zheng to rest.
Xu Fu closed his eyes, then suddenly opened them again.
He dawdled in the quilt for a while, then turned over and pressed on Ying Zheng's body. Ying Zheng was pressed down suddenly by him, and he couldn't help but smile. What is this for?
But Xu Fu pulled down the deep clothes very roughly, exposing his small shoulders, "Let's do something...happy."
Ying Zheng's throat moved, "A happy thing?"
"Hmm." Xu Fu generously showed the appearance of letting you pick and choose.
Ying Zheng, who had abstained from sexual intercourse for half a month because Xu Fu basically did not cooperate, of course would not refuse the beauty that came to his door, so he ate Xu Fu generously.
And Xu Fu silently made a note in his heart.
Look, I actually thought of you very much. Seeing that you were exhausted, I laid down on my own.
Thinking about it this way, Xu Fu suddenly felt that he was in a comfort that was hard to find anywhere in the world.
Candles flickered with the curtains.
The little tripod was placed on the table, and I don't know how long it has passed, maybe it was when the moon was in the sky, a thin and long black shadow struggled crookedly and crawled out of the tripod, still looking like a human being. , "Huh..." let out a long breath.
Sometimes a little indulgence is a great way to relieve stress and feel refreshed.
Xu Fu, who was depleted of energy, woke up early in the morning, but he was full of energy. If it wasn't for the fact that Ying Zheng was also full of energy after waking up, Xu Fu would have wondered if he had learned some incredible skills to absorb Ying Zheng's energy. coming.
After the two changed their robes, they went to court together.
Yes, together.
Xu Fu wanted to see the man behind the back, and Ying Zheng, who was fully satisfied, was also very happy to let Xu Fu stand by his side, so that he could feel the unsatisfactory taste.
In today's court, Ying Zheng was wearing a black court dress with a crown hanging down his forehead, which made his cold and handsome face even more contrasting.
In fact, Ying Zheng wanted to make such a hat for Xu Fu, so that he could hide Xu Fu's handsome face.
If Xu Fu becomes a national teacher in the future, he will give Xu Fu a crown in an open and honest manner.
The two entered the hall together, and Xu Fu's appearance in white robes entered the public's sight.
Wearing a white robe was Xu Fu's own request, and Ying Zheng only hesitated a little before agreeing to Xu Fu's choice.
White robes are commonly worn by ordinary people, but Ying Zheng has to say that there is absolutely no other person in this world who can dress this white robe better than Xu Fu.And Xu Fu also thought quite bluntly that no one could dress better than him.The most important thing is that he is used to this kind of attire, which makes him appear more immoral and arrogant, making ordinary people dare not provoke him easily.Since he was going to confront the person behind him today, he naturally wanted to show his most imposing side.
It's best to make a good comparison with that person's ugly face!
Xu Fu suppressed his thoughts and stood beside Ying Zheng very naturally.
The ministers saluted Ying Zheng one after another. These ministers have not been infected so far, but the training during this period has already made their faces pale, pale, and yellow.They all looked as if they had been abused by King Qin.
And among this group of people, a veiled gaze landed on Xu Fu's body, and then withdrew quickly.
Xu Fu knew that someone was looking at him, and he could even guess what the other person was thinking at this moment.That gloomy look with a bit of pleasure...
He must be thinking, haha, this idiot dares to come here, just in time, I want to ridicule and humiliate him so much that he loses face, and he is forced to agree, and finally shows an angry expression.
Xu Fu was not in a hurry to search for this gaze, because he knew that person would stand up soon.
After the daily dialogue between the monarch and his ministers was over, an old man took the initiative to come forward and said: "Your Majesty, the situation in the city is bad now, and the whole country of Qin has not improved at all. I dare to ask Xu Fengchang what he said on the tower that day. , but they all lied to us?"
Xu Fu and Ying Zheng glanced at the man almost at the same time, and at the same time confirmed in their hearts that it was not him.
If that person stands up, he must be aggressive. After all, he has been working in secret for so long, and he must be unable to hold back. He can't wait to trample Xu Fu under his feet. His words must be fierce, and every sentence will be poured on Xu Fu. Dirty water.
Ying Zheng glanced at the man lightly, "When did Xu Fengchang lie to you?"
The man frowned and said, "Xu Feng often said that water, fire, and magic medicine can solve diseases and droughts. Is that so?"
Ying Zheng blocked him back unhurriedly, "Nowadays there is only ground water, but no water from the sky. There are many kinds of medicines, but the magic medicine has not been found. Only fire can be born anywhere. How can it be regarded as Is everything complete? Since it is not complete, the drought and disease in the natural city have not been alleviated. Disasters are not easy to solve. If it is as easy as you said, why don't I entrust this matter to you? "
The man's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said: "Don't dare, dare not." After speaking, he quickly retreated.
At this time, one person smiled strangely, full of sarcasm, "In my opinion, Xu Fengchang's words are mostly excuses. It's just to clear up the suspicion that he failed to preside over the wax sacrifice, so he pretended to hold a divination ceremony in an attempt to confuse the people , making everyone believe what Xu Fengchang said. But what about now? Now the people are complaining, and desperate people can be seen everywhere in the city. Xu Fengchang tells us to wait, wait?" The man burst out laughing, "What can we wait for? Wait until all Is everyone dead?" He said these words extremely coldly, without any mercy.
By the way, it's you.
Xu Fu slowly raised his head, his indifferent eyes fell on the man.
Ying Zheng looked over almost at the same time as him.
People who were a little afraid of Ying Zheng in the past, now showed an awe-inspiring attitude that I am all for righteousness.
Really well acted!
All over the court, not to mention those who were unwilling to make an enmity with Yu Liao, and some who were even more unwilling to make an enmity with Xu Fu himself. None of them stood up and accused Xu Fu of being wrong. They might have doubts and anxiety in their hearts, but Your Majesty They never blamed Xu Fu, what are they doing to blame others?Are there fewer disasters recorded in history?When is it not tens of thousands of people who die at every turn?But this time it was already regarded as the kindness of the gods and the blessing of the king.
There is only one person, and the hatred between him and Xu Fu can be said to be unending.
This man hated both Xu Fu and Ying Zheng.
"Then according to Mr. Changping's view, what should we do?" Xu Fu looked at the other party, and said slowly, without the slightest loss of composure after being irritated.If Xu Fu is such a calm person, that is not the case.When he heard it, he also felt a little annoyed. Mr. Changping made it clear that he wanted to accuse him of being a sinner.Naturally, he was not happy about putting a hat on like this.That is the unhappiness of having your dignity violated.
Lord Changping did not hide the purpose in his heart, he raised his head, showing a bit of arrogance of the descendants of the Chu royal family, and then said loudly: "Please sacrifice!"
All the officials were stunned, they had already seen what Lord Changping meant against Xu Fu, but now they heard what Lord Changping said, they couldn't help but think of offering sacrifices.
Sacrifice reached its peak during the Shang and Zhou dynasties. The Shang and Zhou dynasties were superstitious about ghosts and gods, divination was required for everything, and sacrifices were often required.Sacrificing to heaven, ghosts and gods, and ancestors.In the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, such customs have not been erased.Not only that...according to Xu Fu's poor historical knowledge, he knew that the dynasties that followed the sacrifice would also be carried forward.
Because of the way of sacrificial offerings, there is not much involved with physiognomy, and Xu Fu only knows a few things sporadically.
Even if Xu Fu didn't know anything about it, he still had the confidence to respond.He can definitely fool everyone so that they can't make a mistake.Of course, apart from Mr. Changping, even if there is nothing wrong with him, Mr. Changping can still painstakingly create mistakes from him.
"What do you guys think?" Ying Zheng asked, leaning forward slightly.
Mr. Changping was startled for a moment, then regained his composure.
Mr. Changping didn't expect that Ying Zheng's first sentence was not to scold him, he sneered in his heart, isn't Ying Zheng very precious to him?Don't these two have an affair?Why, did you abandon your male favorite at this time?
Mr. Changping felt very happy in his heart, as if he had seen Xu Fu's embarrassing end.
At this time, Wei Liao's face was extremely ugly, he knew that Xu Fu didn't know how to sacrifice at all, Lord Changping clearly made it difficult for him when he said it, and what made Wei Liao even more dissatisfied was that King Qin didn't stop him at all.If the king of Qin refuses, who would dare to let Xu Fu go to sacrifice?
At this time, the ministers did not dare to answer casually.
Sacrifice is a custom that has been handed down since ancient times, and many people maintain a sense of awe in their hearts.Now that they are in a critical moment, do they dare to say that sacrifices are useless?But people with a discerning eye also know that Mr. Changping has some malicious intentions. Can they stand on Mr. Changping's side with confidence?How can such a major matter be decided at will.No one wanted to offend Xu Fu and Wei Liao, but no one wanted to be blamed for not wanting Qin to get through the difficulties.
At this time Xu Fu broke the deadlock again, "Oh, I'm just a little Taibo, how can I sacrifice?"
Mr. Changping finally couldn't help showing a malicious smile, and said, "Why is Xu Fengchang so modest? Xu Fengchang only needs to be prepared."
"Prepare someone?"
"It's natural. Human sacrifices have been used in sacrifices since ancient times. Xu Fengchang should know it."
Ha ha.
"Actually, in my opinion, whoever comes to sacrifice is not as good as Xu Fengchang..."
This sentence just stepped on the mine in Ying Zheng's heart, and his face changed suddenly.
"Xiong Qi! You are so brave!"
In a word, three voices yelled at Mr. Changping at the same time.
The ministers trembled all over, bowed their heads and pretended to be dead.
Only at this time, Jiang You's aura will suddenly become stronger invisibly.
Xu Fu worked hard with a guilty conscience.He also knew that at such a time, he could never make a mistake. If he accidentally caused someone to lose his life, how would he deal with himself at that time?Xu Fu concentrated his attention. Even if there were many herbs he didn't know, he would forcefully flip through the classics and quickly identify them.After going back and forth like this, he was forced to memorize the contents of the ancient book abruptly.In a blink of an eye, looking outside the house, it was already nighttime.
I don't know what time it is.
Xu Fuchong beckoned to the waiter waiting outside the door, the waiter was overjoyed and hurried in, "Is Xu Fengchang all right?"
When Xu Fu came to his senses this time, he felt that he was going to faint from hunger. Fortunately, his stomach didn't directly lose its temper and grumbled in front of such a person.
"Why don't you come in and call me?"
The servant said aggrievedly: "The king has been urged several times, but Feng Chang is busy, and the servants dare not disturb at will."
Xu Fu was startled, was he that fascinated just now?
"Then I'll tell my senior brother, and I'll go back now." It's important to get the medicine to solve the disease as soon as possible, but he can't delay his rest time because of this. Xu Fu really doesn't want to come again, and an attendant doctor smiles at him , Said: You are out of energy.
The servant responded with a cheerful smile, and secretly wiped away the sweat in his heart.
If they don't bring them back, they will definitely be kicked away by the king.
"Senior brother, I'm leaving first." Xu Fu walked over to talk to Jiang You, but Jiang You didn't look up at all.Xu Fu called out a few more times, and only then did he realize why the servant didn't call him out.Xu Fu had no choice but to turn around and go out first. When he reached the door, Jiang You seemed to wake up suddenly, pointed at his butt, and yelled, "Junior Brother, have you become a spirit?"
Why are you so smart?
Xu Fu turned back with a dark face, lowered his head following his gaze, and then tore off the sticky thing on the back of his robe.
Long... strips of cloth?
Xu Fu was puzzled to find that the cloth strip still looked familiar, but its appearance had changed a lot from before.It gets longer.
Like a living creature with spirituality, he is constantly growing up... Xu Fu shivered unconsciously, and countless horror stories suddenly popped up in his mind.He pretended to be nonchalant and tucked the cloth strip into his sleeve, "Brother, you have been busy for a long time and your eyes are blurred, you should pay more attention to rest."
Jiang You looked again, and there was indeed nothing.Jiang You sighed, and said with a smile: "Maybe I'm tired, thank you brother for caring about me." After speaking, Jiang You showed a moved expression.
But other people in the palace were astonished.
Originally they only thought that Jiang You was a capable man specially invited by the king, but now they heard him address Xu Fu as his younger brother... Doesn't that mean that this person is also from the same family as the Guowei, and this one is also from a ghost valley?Immediately, the eyes of everyone looking at him changed, and they secretly warned themselves not to offend him casually.
Xu Fu walked out of the house, stepped through an arched door, walked out along the path, and walked on the wide avenue after a while.
The moon in the sky casts a cold light, and the night is a bit cold. Xu Fu put his hands into his sleeves, but felt that the cloth strip seemed to be shaking. He squeezed the cloth strip, and it was still soft, nothing strange feel.
really weird.
After returning to the bedroom, the servant who led the way had retreated consciously.Ying Zheng was sitting by the candlelight, still flipping through the bamboo slips in his hand, and said without raising his head when he heard footsteps, "Ah Fu, do you know where Qin has not suffered this time?"
"Is there any place that hasn't suffered any disaster?" Xu Fu was a little surprised.He thought that the whole country of Qin State was really in the predicament of drought, but now he was surprised to hear Ying Zheng say this suddenly.If there is a place that has never suffered, will this place become a place that everyone covets?Everyone can't wait to hide in that place?Xu Fu knew very well that it was impossible for a place to carry too many people, if it carried too many people, it would only make this pure land disappear quickly.
"You have been there before." Ying Zheng whispered.
Xu Fu keenly noticed that the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, with a hint of a smile.
It was just a flash of light, and two words quickly came to Xu Fu's mind, "Shu County?"
Ying Zheng nodded, "Exactly."
The expression on Xu Fu's face unconsciously relaxed a lot, maybe he didn't even realize that his expression was not so tense in front of Ying Zheng.
"From this point of view, the construction of Dujiangyan is not only correct, but also a great contribution."
"Yes." Ying Zheng no longer concealed the joy on his face, "I never imagined that Li Bing could make such a great contribution to Dujiangyan, and that only Dujiangyan could live a normal life when Qin was in such peril. Life." The joy on Ying Zheng's face slowly dissipated, he paused, and said: "However, this is not a long-term solution. If it does not rain for a long time, no one knows how long Qin can survive."
The relaxed look on Xu Fu's face also faded away.
Since arriving in the Qin Kingdom, he has almost never missed a divination. The shocked and admiring gazes from others almost made him think that in this era, there is nothing that he cannot predict.But until now, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.Even if Liuyao and gossip have already informed him of the disaster, so what?It was too late, and no rescue measures could be taken.Even an accurate time to escape from the disaster cannot be calculated.
"If someone forces me to sacrifice tomorrow..."
"You don't have to answer." Ying Zheng's face darkened. He really didn't like someone plotting Xu Fu behind his back. Once he was caught, he would definitely execute that person and let him know that not everyone can threaten at will. of.
Xu Fu shook his head at this moment, "No, I have to deal with this matter."
"Knowing that the man has uneasy and kind intentions behind his back, you still want to answer?" Ying Zheng frowned slightly.In fact, this matter may not be dangerous, but it is very likely that the other party will use it to pour dirty water on Xu Fu.Even if it was just splashing dirty water, Ying Zheng didn't want to see it.He is here to protect his people, and he will not allow anyone to lay hands on them.
However, Xu Fu obviously didn't realize that there was a big boss standing behind him at this time, so he followed his usual handling habits and made a decision in his heart, "He wants to sacrifice, so I will sacrifice, and now rumors are spreading around , If I don’t stand up, I’m afraid some people will say I’m guilty.” Every time someone kneels down to him and calls him a god, although Xu Fu feels a little ridiculous and a bit of a Jack Su, calling him a god is better than calling him a “disaster.” Star", and even wanted to put the drought on him.
If the tiger doesn't show its power, it really treats me as a cat, so I can rub it at will?
"Not only do I want to sacrifice, but I also want to direct the disaster to that person." Xu Fu said coldly.
Seeing his confident appearance, Ying Zheng swallowed back all the words he wanted to persuade.How did he forget?Now Xu Fu is not only his person, Xu Fu is also an independent person, Xu Fu will never wantonly rely on himself to avoid other people's calculations and backstabbing.
Xu Fu's pupils were shining brightly, and the depression during this period of time was wiped away.
Having an opponent hiding in the dark is more effective than taking tonics, and it immediately refreshes him.
Ying Zheng couldn't help but sighed in his heart, it seems that the widow has to thank him?
"If there is something that needs my help, just tell me." Ying Zheng couldn't help but said.It's not a good thing that Xu Fu is too independent. Ying Zheng felt that he didn't even have a place to go, which was too frustrating for him.
When Yingzheng was tempted at the beginning, he still thought that he would raise Xu Fu like a king next to him, so that he could spread his wings and fully protect Xu Fu under him. The relationship between them will gradually become like this.In front of Xu Fu, where can he find the dignity and momentum of a king?Think about it, the first time he threatened Xu Fu, saying that if he lied to him, he would hang him on the mast to dry... Thinking about this scene, it seems to have happened in the previous life.
The pressing pressure during this period made Xu Fu's mood unstable, and occasionally even sentimental, but this made him more delicate in some aspects.
For example, at this time, Xu Fu noticed that Ying Zheng's mood didn't seem very high.
"Ah Zheng, are you worried about me?" Of course Xu Fu would not have guessed what Ying Zheng was thinking, he just thought that Ying Zheng was worried about him.
After all, every time Ying Zheng showed displeasure to him, it was because he was worried about his safety.
Thinking of this, Xu Fu's thoughts froze suddenly... It seemed that Ying Zheng always cared and worried more about him.
"The widow is naturally worried about you." Seeing that Xu Fu was finally not so heartless, the emotions in Ying Zheng's heart were soothed, and he made a little progress. In the future, Xu Fu will be able to make rapid progress and realize that the widow It's hot love.
But after Ying Zheng finished speaking, he realized that Xu Fu was distracted again.
"Afu?"
"..."
Ying Zheng had to raise his voice, "Jun Fang."
Xu Fu was really unfamiliar with this name, but it was precisely because of the strangeness that it pulled him out of his thoughts.
"But thinking about the sacrifice?"
Xu Fu shook his head and blurted out: "I'm thinking, have I ever worried about you?"
Ying Zheng was startled, secretly amused in his heart.Xu Fu's ability to think this way can be regarded as progress... Ying Zheng suddenly felt a little sad.It was really hard to wait until Xu Fu cared about himself.
When Xu Fu said those words, he felt a little ashamed at first, but he has always been a tolerant person, and after saying these words, he completely tore off his shameful barrier.Xu Fu said, "I was worried about you."
"Oh? Really?" Ying Zheng really didn't realize that Xu Fu had ever worried about himself.Sometimes Xu Fu is just pretending to be cold on the outside, but the more he passes by, he can't help but feel that Xu Fu is actually cold on the inside, he just looks easy to deal with, but in fact he is still indifferent to the world. people.I don't know whether it has something to do with his growth environment and life experience.
Xu Fu quickly recalled it in his mind, and at this time he gained confidence, and said in a deep voice: "It's natural. You see, when you were crowned before, if I wasn't worried about you, I definitely wouldn't have counted so many divinations for you. , and helped you find Yuxi. I was worried about you at first, but who knew that you never took it to heart. I was worried about you that time. And later, I went to see Lu Buwei for you I was scared to death. Also, I will go to Sichuan for you to solve the flood. Also, I will go to Weihan for you..."
"..." Ying Zheng felt a little uncomfortable.He really wanted to say, obviously you wanted to go out for a walk, and also wanted to find those oddly shaped tripods.
But Xu Fu seemed to have opened a door at this time, and suddenly became eloquent, "Also, when you quarreled with Zhao Ji, I was also worried about you. And Hu Ji betrayed you, look at me I dare not get close to Hu Hai..."
Obviously you don't like children yourself.
"Also, I brought Lord Longyang to Qin because I was worried that Lord Longyang would be a great talent, and staying with King Wei would hinder your great cause of unification. Also, when Wei Liao came to Qin, , and told me that you are a bad person, with bad intentions, narrow-mindedness, and tyrannical temper, so let me not play with you, but I scolded Wei Liao..." When Xu Fu said this, his eyes widened. There was a trace of color flashing quickly.
Ying Zheng grasped the key sentence in this paragraph instantly, "When Wei Liao came to Qin, did you say these things to you? Did you turn cold eyes to Wei Liao later?"
Xu Fu paused.
Eh?He seems to have slipped his tongue...
What Wei Liao scolded Ying Zheng, he originally planned not to say it for the rest of his life, so as to add trouble to Ying Zheng.
Seeing that Xu Fu had been talking eloquently before, but suddenly stopped talking at this moment, Ying Zheng's heart skipped a beat, as if there was a small flame beating in his chest.He thought that his doting on Xu Fu was just a one-way devotion, and he didn't see Xu Fu being moved at all, but Xu Fu's devotion to him was even more subtle.
It turned out that there was such a story in it, which he didn't even know...
No wonder Wei Liao was always indifferent when he saw him afterwards.Just because of Xu Fu, the younger brother, and because of other men, he was scolded.
Ying Zheng felt that he could almost picture Xu Fu's appearance at that time in his mind. He must be cold and sharp, high above the ground, and suppressing his anger.Ying Zheng felt as if he had eaten nectar, it was too sweet, but it didn't make people feel greasy at all.The pleasure in Ying Zheng's heart was simply based on Wei Liao's pain.Hahaha... It turns out that Xu Xiaofu scolded his senior brother for the sake of the widow...
Ying Zheng selectively forgot that at that time Xu Fu had no idea who Ying Zheng was.
One is a stranger, and the other is someone who has slept with him, even if he is a friend with benefits, then Xu Fu must first protect the friend with benefits he knows.
The more Ying Zheng thought about it, the more he felt that maybe what Xu Fu said about the trip to Shu, Wei and Han was really for himself.
Even for this divination, Xu Fu was obviously exhausted, but he still wanted to hold the ceremony to quell the panic of the people, saying that it was for Xianyang and Qin, but why not for him... Ying Zheng thinks about it, it is simply I was about to think that actually Xu Fu loved him very much from the very beginning, but he just refused to say it out loud...
Xu Fu looked at Ying Zheng strangely.
Why did the expression on his face change so quickly?Looks a little... idiot?
Xu Fu coughed lightly, and resumed his cool posture, "Count it up, I also worry about you many times."
It was the same when he was in Sanchuan County. He also worried about what would happen if Ying Zheng got sick, and how Ying Zheng would go back to Xianyang first after leaving him. He was even more angry when he saw Ying Zheng met an assassin.
The balance in Xu Fu's heart returned to balance with a whiz.
See, I'm actually kind to him too.Xu Fu breathed a sigh of relief.That's good, it shows that I'm not a scumbag.
In order to prevent Ying Zheng from carefully asking what Wei Liao scolded that day, Xu Fu changed the topic in time, "Shu is safe and sound, so is there anyone in Qin who wants to go to Shu?"
"will not."
"Why not? If they all knew that Shu could escape the drought, wouldn't they swarm to Shu for refuge?"
Ying Zheng's face was calm, suppressing all the emotions in his heart, and cooperating with Xu Fu said: "No one will believe it. In the eyes of everyone, the road to Shu was difficult, and Shu was backward and poor. How could such a place hide?" Have you survived the drought? No one will believe it." Ying Zheng paused and said, "However, I firmly believe that if Zheng Guo can build a canal, Guanzhong will surely become another Shu land in the future, avoiding the disaster of severe drought. "
When Ying Zheng said this, he was still carefully observing the expression on Xu Fu's face.At this time, in Ying Zheng's heart, he had already unconsciously regarded Xu Fu as a person with a cold face and a shy(?) heart.
If Yingzheng was in modern times, then he would definitely know that Xu Fu was suitable for one word - cuteness in contrast.
Xu Fu didn't know that Ying Zheng's mind was wide open, he just felt that Ying Zheng's eyes were a little creepy.Uh, are you touched by me?Xu Fu silently took a step back, and then said: "I don't know if South Korea will regret it in the future, and just sent this talented Zheng Guo with both hands in front of you."
"King Han won't regret it, but Han Fei has already." Ying Zheng sneered.
Xu Fu almost forgot about Han Fei. When he heard the name suddenly, he suddenly remembered that Han Fei seemed...Damn it?Did he die in this crisis?
"Han Fei is still in the city now?"
"Yes, stay behind closed doors. Occasionally someone will come to deliver something." Ying Zheng said.Although Han Fei's temper was unpleasant, he was able to put it there.Ying Zheng simply let him go. If he survived, he might have a chance to be reused by him in the future. If he couldn't survive, it would be God's will, and he couldn't keep this person who was dedicated to Korea.
Xu Fu secretly wrote it down, thinking that he would go and take a look in a few days.
This Han Fei can be regarded as one of his "experimental products", just like the former Concubine Zheng and Lord Longyang.
"Wang... Ah Zheng can eat today?"
Ying Zheng raised his eyes and glanced at his abdomen, and ordered the palace servants to serve the food without saying a word, "Do you think it's hard? If it's hard, then don't go to help. There are so many people in the palace, why do you need to go in person?" help?"
Xu Fu shook his head, "I happened to learn something from my senior brother."
The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth curled up, and he smiled maliciously and said, "Learn how to do more interesting tricks?"
Xu Fu ignored him, and when the food was served, he immediately lowered his head and ate quietly. When he raised his hand to pick up the food, the cloth strip in his sleeve slipped out somehow.
Seeing this, Yingzheng couldn't help laughing and said, "Fengchang, the widow, still has such a childlike heart, but he hid a piece of cloth in his sleeve." Then he stretched out his hand and grabbed the piece of cloth.
After Ying Zheng grabbed the cloth strip, he felt that the appearance of the cloth strip was really weird. It seemed to be soaked in blood. When he looked closely, he felt that the blood seemed to flow.Just as he was distracted, Ying Zheng groaned.
Xu Fu almost knocked over the tableware in front of him, "What's wrong?" He turned his head quickly.
Ying Zheng pinched the cloth strip, "What is this thing?"
Xu Fu took a closer look, his eyes almost fell out.
Blood dripped from Ying Zheng's fingertips.
Xu Fu was upset, he just felt that this piece of cloth was a bit pretentious, if it really had the effect of witchcraft, then why couldn't it take shape?On the contrary, it is like a brown candy, sticking to my body every day, and even the new cloth strips I made always disappear inexplicably.
Xu Fu grabbed the cloth strip with a sullen face and ordered someone to fetch the tripod.
The palace servants carefully brought Xu Fu's treasured cauldron, Xu Fu threw the cloth into it, lit a candle, then put it aside, and he ignored it.
Ying Zheng curled his fingers, "Is that something you soaked in blood before? Are you trying witchcraft?"
Xu Fu was a little full after eating, so he put down his chopsticks, "Mmm. It's kind of evil." However, as an alchemist who always relied on fortune-telling and fooled people so that he couldn't find the north, he said that he was evil, like a bit of a big brother Don't talk about the feeling of the second brother.
Ying Zheng wasn't worried about Xu Fu's experiments behind his back, anyway, Xu Fu could grasp the speed, not to mention that even though Ying Zheng claimed to be well-informed, he was really a person with little knowledge in these aspects.
After eating, Xu Fu washed up briefly, then changed his robes and lay down on the bed with Ying Zheng to rest.
Xu Fu closed his eyes, then suddenly opened them again.
He dawdled in the quilt for a while, then turned over and pressed on Ying Zheng's body. Ying Zheng was pressed down suddenly by him, and he couldn't help but smile. What is this for?
But Xu Fu pulled down the deep clothes very roughly, exposing his small shoulders, "Let's do something...happy."
Ying Zheng's throat moved, "A happy thing?"
"Hmm." Xu Fu generously showed the appearance of letting you pick and choose.
Ying Zheng, who had abstained from sexual intercourse for half a month because Xu Fu basically did not cooperate, of course would not refuse the beauty that came to his door, so he ate Xu Fu generously.
And Xu Fu silently made a note in his heart.
Look, I actually thought of you very much. Seeing that you were exhausted, I laid down on my own.
Thinking about it this way, Xu Fu suddenly felt that he was in a comfort that was hard to find anywhere in the world.
Candles flickered with the curtains.
The little tripod was placed on the table, and I don't know how long it has passed, maybe it was when the moon was in the sky, a thin and long black shadow struggled crookedly and crawled out of the tripod, still looking like a human being. , "Huh..." let out a long breath.
Sometimes a little indulgence is a great way to relieve stress and feel refreshed.
Xu Fu, who was depleted of energy, woke up early in the morning, but he was full of energy. If it wasn't for the fact that Ying Zheng was also full of energy after waking up, Xu Fu would have wondered if he had learned some incredible skills to absorb Ying Zheng's energy. coming.
After the two changed their robes, they went to court together.
Yes, together.
Xu Fu wanted to see the man behind the back, and Ying Zheng, who was fully satisfied, was also very happy to let Xu Fu stand by his side, so that he could feel the unsatisfactory taste.
In today's court, Ying Zheng was wearing a black court dress with a crown hanging down his forehead, which made his cold and handsome face even more contrasting.
In fact, Ying Zheng wanted to make such a hat for Xu Fu, so that he could hide Xu Fu's handsome face.
If Xu Fu becomes a national teacher in the future, he will give Xu Fu a crown in an open and honest manner.
The two entered the hall together, and Xu Fu's appearance in white robes entered the public's sight.
Wearing a white robe was Xu Fu's own request, and Ying Zheng only hesitated a little before agreeing to Xu Fu's choice.
White robes are commonly worn by ordinary people, but Ying Zheng has to say that there is absolutely no other person in this world who can dress this white robe better than Xu Fu.And Xu Fu also thought quite bluntly that no one could dress better than him.The most important thing is that he is used to this kind of attire, which makes him appear more immoral and arrogant, making ordinary people dare not provoke him easily.Since he was going to confront the person behind him today, he naturally wanted to show his most imposing side.
It's best to make a good comparison with that person's ugly face!
Xu Fu suppressed his thoughts and stood beside Ying Zheng very naturally.
The ministers saluted Ying Zheng one after another. These ministers have not been infected so far, but the training during this period has already made their faces pale, pale, and yellow.They all looked as if they had been abused by King Qin.
And among this group of people, a veiled gaze landed on Xu Fu's body, and then withdrew quickly.
Xu Fu knew that someone was looking at him, and he could even guess what the other person was thinking at this moment.That gloomy look with a bit of pleasure...
He must be thinking, haha, this idiot dares to come here, just in time, I want to ridicule and humiliate him so much that he loses face, and he is forced to agree, and finally shows an angry expression.
Xu Fu was not in a hurry to search for this gaze, because he knew that person would stand up soon.
After the daily dialogue between the monarch and his ministers was over, an old man took the initiative to come forward and said: "Your Majesty, the situation in the city is bad now, and the whole country of Qin has not improved at all. I dare to ask Xu Fengchang what he said on the tower that day. , but they all lied to us?"
Xu Fu and Ying Zheng glanced at the man almost at the same time, and at the same time confirmed in their hearts that it was not him.
If that person stands up, he must be aggressive. After all, he has been working in secret for so long, and he must be unable to hold back. He can't wait to trample Xu Fu under his feet. His words must be fierce, and every sentence will be poured on Xu Fu. Dirty water.
Ying Zheng glanced at the man lightly, "When did Xu Fengchang lie to you?"
The man frowned and said, "Xu Feng often said that water, fire, and magic medicine can solve diseases and droughts. Is that so?"
Ying Zheng blocked him back unhurriedly, "Nowadays there is only ground water, but no water from the sky. There are many kinds of medicines, but the magic medicine has not been found. Only fire can be born anywhere. How can it be regarded as Is everything complete? Since it is not complete, the drought and disease in the natural city have not been alleviated. Disasters are not easy to solve. If it is as easy as you said, why don't I entrust this matter to you? "
The man's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said: "Don't dare, dare not." After speaking, he quickly retreated.
At this time, one person smiled strangely, full of sarcasm, "In my opinion, Xu Fengchang's words are mostly excuses. It's just to clear up the suspicion that he failed to preside over the wax sacrifice, so he pretended to hold a divination ceremony in an attempt to confuse the people , making everyone believe what Xu Fengchang said. But what about now? Now the people are complaining, and desperate people can be seen everywhere in the city. Xu Fengchang tells us to wait, wait?" The man burst out laughing, "What can we wait for? Wait until all Is everyone dead?" He said these words extremely coldly, without any mercy.
By the way, it's you.
Xu Fu slowly raised his head, his indifferent eyes fell on the man.
Ying Zheng looked over almost at the same time as him.
People who were a little afraid of Ying Zheng in the past, now showed an awe-inspiring attitude that I am all for righteousness.
Really well acted!
All over the court, not to mention those who were unwilling to make an enmity with Yu Liao, and some who were even more unwilling to make an enmity with Xu Fu himself. None of them stood up and accused Xu Fu of being wrong. They might have doubts and anxiety in their hearts, but Your Majesty They never blamed Xu Fu, what are they doing to blame others?Are there fewer disasters recorded in history?When is it not tens of thousands of people who die at every turn?But this time it was already regarded as the kindness of the gods and the blessing of the king.
There is only one person, and the hatred between him and Xu Fu can be said to be unending.
This man hated both Xu Fu and Ying Zheng.
"Then according to Mr. Changping's view, what should we do?" Xu Fu looked at the other party, and said slowly, without the slightest loss of composure after being irritated.If Xu Fu is such a calm person, that is not the case.When he heard it, he also felt a little annoyed. Mr. Changping made it clear that he wanted to accuse him of being a sinner.Naturally, he was not happy about putting a hat on like this.That is the unhappiness of having your dignity violated.
Lord Changping did not hide the purpose in his heart, he raised his head, showing a bit of arrogance of the descendants of the Chu royal family, and then said loudly: "Please sacrifice!"
All the officials were stunned, they had already seen what Lord Changping meant against Xu Fu, but now they heard what Lord Changping said, they couldn't help but think of offering sacrifices.
Sacrifice reached its peak during the Shang and Zhou dynasties. The Shang and Zhou dynasties were superstitious about ghosts and gods, divination was required for everything, and sacrifices were often required.Sacrificing to heaven, ghosts and gods, and ancestors.In the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, such customs have not been erased.Not only that...according to Xu Fu's poor historical knowledge, he knew that the dynasties that followed the sacrifice would also be carried forward.
Because of the way of sacrificial offerings, there is not much involved with physiognomy, and Xu Fu only knows a few things sporadically.
Even if Xu Fu didn't know anything about it, he still had the confidence to respond.He can definitely fool everyone so that they can't make a mistake.Of course, apart from Mr. Changping, even if there is nothing wrong with him, Mr. Changping can still painstakingly create mistakes from him.
"What do you guys think?" Ying Zheng asked, leaning forward slightly.
Mr. Changping was startled for a moment, then regained his composure.
Mr. Changping didn't expect that Ying Zheng's first sentence was not to scold him, he sneered in his heart, isn't Ying Zheng very precious to him?Don't these two have an affair?Why, did you abandon your male favorite at this time?
Mr. Changping felt very happy in his heart, as if he had seen Xu Fu's embarrassing end.
At this time, Wei Liao's face was extremely ugly, he knew that Xu Fu didn't know how to sacrifice at all, Lord Changping clearly made it difficult for him when he said it, and what made Wei Liao even more dissatisfied was that King Qin didn't stop him at all.If the king of Qin refuses, who would dare to let Xu Fu go to sacrifice?
At this time, the ministers did not dare to answer casually.
Sacrifice is a custom that has been handed down since ancient times, and many people maintain a sense of awe in their hearts.Now that they are in a critical moment, do they dare to say that sacrifices are useless?But people with a discerning eye also know that Mr. Changping has some malicious intentions. Can they stand on Mr. Changping's side with confidence?How can such a major matter be decided at will.No one wanted to offend Xu Fu and Wei Liao, but no one wanted to be blamed for not wanting Qin to get through the difficulties.
At this time Xu Fu broke the deadlock again, "Oh, I'm just a little Taibo, how can I sacrifice?"
Mr. Changping finally couldn't help showing a malicious smile, and said, "Why is Xu Fengchang so modest? Xu Fengchang only needs to be prepared."
"Prepare someone?"
"It's natural. Human sacrifices have been used in sacrifices since ancient times. Xu Fengchang should know it."
Ha ha.
"Actually, in my opinion, whoever comes to sacrifice is not as good as Xu Fengchang..."
This sentence just stepped on the mine in Ying Zheng's heart, and his face changed suddenly.
"Xiong Qi! You are so brave!"
In a word, three voices yelled at Mr. Changping at the same time.
The ministers trembled all over, bowed their heads and pretended to be dead.
