Great Qin State Teacher
Chapter 65
"... Help!"
On this day, a scream suddenly sounded in a remote alley, and the passers-by were startled to look into the yard, but they could only see the half-closed door panel and the hem of the clothes passing by.The passer-by was startled, and thought, could it be that he was hit and killed by him?
After a long time, two strong men pushed open the door and came out, dragging a man with a pale complexion and sweating profusely in his hands. The robe on the man's body was already dirty, and he couldn't help crying when he came out. The screaming sound, the appearance is not in a panic.
It's a pity that the man tried his best to hide his face aside, before passers-by had time to see clearly, that face belonged to their governor of Shu County.
The passer-by looked inside the door again, and saw a man with white temples holding on to a pillar, and staggered to a standstill. Not far from him, there were several beautiful women crying.
The passer-by thought secretly, could it be that he was caught in a rape?Then shook his head and hurried away.If this kind of housework is accidentally mixed in, it will be fatal.
·
Xu Fu and Ying Zheng were sitting together in the hall, and the servants of the Sheriff's Mansion brought tea tremblingly.The people in the county guard's mansion were still a little unbelievable, they actually saw King Qin.But seeing that Mr. Xiong Yi was extremely obedient, the fear in their hearts deepened, and they did not dare to doubt his identity at all.
It's just that those people who used to rely on the power of the county guard to bully everywhere are now panicked, fearing that they will be crushed to death by King Qin with one finger.
Not long after, a person came into the hall, leaned over to Ying Zheng and said, "He brought it back."
Ying Zheng nodded, "Go down to the prison, and bring them back with you when you leave for Xianyang. Order Li Bing to come and take office in three days."
The man backed away.
Xu Fu didn't know what Lu Buwei looked like when Chen Hui was brought there, and he was still a little curious.
It just so happened that Ying Zheng said, "Go for the widow and bring the things back..."
thing?what?
"The Empress Dowager Royal Seal."
Xu Fu was startled, "Didn't you stay at Lao Ai's place back then?"
"It's not in Lao Ai's hands."
So Qin Shihuang is here to take away the imperial seal of the queen mother?
"Now that the queen mother has passed away, although the imperial seal is useless, it cannot be left in Lu Buwei's hands." Ying Zheng's face was gloomy, and when he mentioned Lu Buwei, his voice suddenly turned a little cold.
As early as the last time he witnessed Ying Zheng taking back the imperial seal from Zhao Ji, but smashing it face to face, Xu Fu had seen Ying Zheng's overbearing.Even if he doesn't bother to use things, he will never leave them to others.
It so happened that he also wanted to see Lu Buwei's current appearance...
Xu Fu nodded in agreement, "Please trouble the king to send someone to guide me."
Ying Zheng called someone to come, and the man bent down and led Xu Fu out the door.Sang Zhong and Bai Zhou looked at each other and followed Xu Fu.
·
With a "squeak", the courtyard door was pushed open again, and the sensitive person in the courtyard immediately raised his head and said angrily, "Who?"
Xu Fu walked in front, with one hand on the door, he walked in slowly.
Seeing his face, Lu Buwei's expression changed.
"It's you……"
If it is said that he hates Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei hates Xu Fu even more than that.This kind of villain, appearing beside Ying Zheng, fanning and bewitching Ying Zheng, is disgusting, and now he has turned into Ying Zheng's minion, it is even more disgusting!
It was after this person appeared that he could no longer control Ying Zheng.
His defeat began to appear from then on!
Xu Fu raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of Lu Buwei leaning on the doorpost.
How did Lu Buwei age so quickly?A look of surprise flashed across Xu Fu's face.
It is said that power can keep a man forever young.After Lu Buwei lost his power, will he inevitably fall into rapid aging?
The vigor and vigor completely disappeared from his body, and all Xu Fu could see was his white hair at the sideburns, his face with deep eye lines and forehead lines, his yellowish complexion and chapped mouth, as well as the sternness in his eyes, and the hidden secrets. fear.
What else would Lu Buwei be afraid of now?He has lost nothing more, what else can scare him?Because Chen Hui put a cuckold on him, so let him completely sink into depression?
Xu Fu stepped forward slowly, watching the former hero transform into his current appearance.But his heart is very calm, probably because Lu Buwei is standing in a hostile position with him.
"What are you doing here?" When Lu Buwei spoke, his lips were trembling slightly, and a look of embarrassment and anger appeared on his face.Lu Buwei had long heard that a few people had come from Shu, from Xianyang. At first he was a little terrified, but after seeing Xiong Yi's face on the street by accident, he was relieved a lot.If Ying Zheng was really worried that he was living in Shu, and sent someone to kill him, it was absolutely impossible to send Xiong Yi.
It's just that he didn't expect that there was another Xu Fu besides Xiong Yi... Who is Xu Fu?Now that she is so close to Ying Zheng, if there is anyone she trusts in Ying Zheng, he must be one of them.Ying Zheng would be willing to let him come to Sichuan, isn't that purpose obvious?
Lu Buwei's face turned slightly pale.
Xu Fu turned his head to look at the woman beside him who was still crying softly.
These should be the concubines brought by Lu Buwei?
Lu Buwei's face changed again, he said sharply: "Take them down!"
Mrs. Lu came out from inside, she didn't know Xu Fu, she just looked at Xu Fu in surprise, she couldn't understand why Lu Buwei lost his temper so much.She called her servants to take those concubines down, and then retreated.
"The reason why I came here today is..." Before Dai Xu Fu finished speaking, Lu Buwei's expression became extremely ugly.Xu Fu paused, carefully looked at the expression on Lu Buwei's face, and then said: "Mr. Lu, please hand over something."
In order to suppress the panic in his heart, Lu Buwei sneered, and said loudly: "I, Lu Buwei, can I have something worth thinking about now? I asked you to drive here from Xianyang thousands of miles away!"
Xu Fu raised his eyelids, his expression was indifferent, and he didn't pay attention to Lu Buwei's bluff at all, "Where is the Empress Dowager Yuxi now?"
"What is the Empress Dowager's Seal? Now that the Empress Dowager has passed away, it is ridiculous to ask me to get the Empress Dowager's Seal!" Lu Buwei sneered, his eyes were cold and stern.This appearance has a bit of the demeanor of Lu Xiang in the past.
Xu Fu believed what Ying Zheng said. Since he said that he was with Lu Buwei, he was right.Xu Fu did not argue with Lu Buwei, but said coldly: "Mr. Lu will not hand it over, I will take it away today. It's just that Mr. Lu can choose to hand it over voluntarily, or I will find it." Sang behind Xu Fu Zhonghe Baizhou stepped forward, the two of them had a strong aura, and their tall stature also gave people a sense of oppression.
Now that Lu Buwei is no longer Xiangbang, the two of them really want to fight, and Lu Buwei has nowhere to appeal.
His face changed several colors back and forth, Lu Buwei just remembered something.
Chen Hui is the governor of Shu County, who would dare to bring Chen Hui to him to humiliate him?
... Ying Zheng also came to Shu? !
This idea flashed through Lu Buwei's mind quickly, his voice suddenly became dry and hoarse, and the sharp look he made just now was like a castle in the air, and it fell apart with a push.
"It's Ying... King Qin asked you to come to me for the imperial seal?"
Xu Fu glanced at him, and his indifferent gaze had a bit of the charm of Ying Zheng, "I'm not looking for you, but to give Mr. Lu a chance."
Lu Buwei laughed loudly after hearing this, "I never thought that I, Lu Buwei, would be bullied by your little boy." Now Lu Buwei can only show his power with his mouth, he endured the humiliation, gritted his teeth and took a cloth bag from his sleeve , It turned out that he always carried it with him.
Xu Fu raised his eyebrows, reached out to take the cloth bag, opened it, and saw a small square jade inside, which looked very delicate.Xu Fu didn't take a closer look, anyway, he couldn't tell the truth from the fake, so he just glanced at it, closed the cloth bag, and threw it to Bai Zhou beside him.
Noticing the reluctance and unwillingness flashed across Lu Buwei's face at this moment, Xu Fu was sure that the imperial seal should be real.
With Yuxi in hand, he also saw Lu Buwei's current appearance, and there was no point in ridiculing him any longer, so Xu Fu turned around and walked out.When he led the people to the door, Lu Buwei behind him was unable to stand still and fell to the ground.
Mrs. Lu let out an exclamation, hurriedly trotted out, and supported Lu Buwei, and after holding her up, she was horrified to find that Lu Buwei's face was faintly blue.
Lu Buwei gritted his teeth, staring at Xu Fuyuan's back, all kinds of grief, anger and embarrassment flashed across his face... He actually fell in front of Xu Fu!What a shame!
Xu Fu heard the voice, but didn't look back, and walked out with Sang Zhong and the two.
As soon as he left, Lu Buwei couldn't hold back a mouthful of blood from his throat. Mrs. Lu panicked and yelled, "Come here! Come here..." Lu Buwei raised his hand and grabbed her wrist. The blue veins in his veins almost popped out, "It's okay, help me...help me get up..."
Mrs. Lu nodded in panic, and helped Lu Buwei up from the ground. Lu Buwei pushed Mrs. Lu away, staggered towards the study, and when he entered the door, he tried his best to close the door tightly, not letting him in. His embarrassing appearance was displayed in front of everyone again.
He closed his eyes, and it seemed that the voices of people bowing down and calling him Lu Xiang could still be heard in his ears.
How did he ever think that he would be where he is today?He, Lu Buwei, considered himself the most successful businessman with outstanding vision. Later, he became Xiangbang, the father of King Zhong of Qin, and took over the power of a country. He had three thousand followers and wrote "Lu Shi Chunqiu". A stroke of admiration...
Why... why did it become what it is now?
Ying Zheng came to Sichuan, he must be killed... He can't tolerate him... Think about Hu Ji, think about Chen Hui who was in a mess just now, think about Xu Fu who came here... and The faces of Lao Ai and Zhao Ji flashed across his mind... His worries finally came true.
Zhao Ji is dead, and it will be his turn soon.
Lu Buwei's face suddenly became distorted, but he didn't want to die in Ying Zheng's hands!
He stumbled to the table, grabbed the wine vessel on the table, and drank it up.
·
When Xu Fu returned to the Sheriff's Mansion, the whole Sheriff's Mansion had already been turned into Yingzheng's territory. He ordered people to make meals and bought good wine. When Xu Fu came in, he saw the food being placed on the table.
Ying Zheng sat at the top, and the place next to him was obviously reserved for Xu Fu.
Seeing him coming in, Ying Zheng asked, "Are you hungry?"
Xu Fu was a little hungry, so he nodded, and the waiter led him to sit down at the table.
After sitting down, Xu Fu discovered that Xiong Yi was not in the hall.Is this a tactful hiding?Xu Fu put the question behind him and started eating with Ying Zheng.It is very difficult to enjoy such a leisurely meal after coming to Shu.At this time, I relax, the atmosphere is natural and happy, and I even use a little more food.
On the one hand, it is harmonious.
On the other side, the night was falling, Mrs. Lu couldn't wait for Lu Buwei to come out of the study for a long time, a look of tiredness flashed across her face, and she ordered the maid to clean up the food.
Mrs. Lu was a little annoyed, what is the Lu family like now?The maids can only afford one, and the meals can only be rough, but Lu Buwei's concubines cause some troubles all day long, even Lu Buwei only knows how to lose his temper, but never thinks about her difficulties.
The more Mrs. Lu thought about it, the more depressed she became, she called a maid to help her go to the study.
"Husband, husband..." Madam Lu called out for a while, but there was no answer. Madam Lu became more and more annoyed, so she knocked on the door vigorously. When the door opened, she walked in, but there was no candle light in the room. Madam muttered to herself, what are you doing?She took two steps forward and saw Lu Buwei leaning over the table, Mrs. Lu stretched out her hand to push Lu Buwei, Lu Buwei suddenly turned over and rolled down from the table, through the moonlight outside the window, Madam Lu saw the blood on Lu Buwei's face .
"what!"
Screams sounded in the silent yard.
·
The catastrophe caused by the flood in Shu was temporarily resolved, Chen Hui was imprisoned, Li Bing was promoted to the post of county guard, and in the long run it was also resolved.
On the second day, Ying Zheng ordered people to pack up their things, prepare their chariots and horses, and prepare to take Xu Fu on the road back to Xianyang.
As soon as the group of people left the Sheriff's Mansion, they saw a person rushing towards them, looked at the people in the Sheriff's Mansion in a daze, and said tremblingly: "...the Sheriff, is the Sheriff here? Then Lu Buwei... is dead!"
Xu Fu was slightly taken aback, a look of surprise flashed across his face.
Lu Buwei is dead? !
He was driven from Xianyang to Sichuan by Qin Shihuang, took off his official uniform, and didn't die. Why did he die today after seeing him yesterday?
On the contrary, Ying Zheng was very calm. He was not even the slightest surprised when he heard the news. He said calmly, "The new sheriff will leave for Chengdu within three days. Let's look for the sheriff then." After saying that, Ying Zheng signaled Xu Fu Get in the carriage.
Before that person understood what was going on, the group of them had already left the city of Chengdu in a chariot and horse.
The man waited for a while before he said: "The new sheriff... what's going on here? Where's the sheriff Chen?"
Mrs. Lu was sitting in the hall of the Lu Mansion, her face was numb due to too much sadness. She waited for a long time, but she couldn't wait for the sheriff to come.She covered her face and cried while cursing, "Chen will be a dog! How did you rely on my Lu family to get the position of sheriff? Now you turn your face and deny anyone! You are a wolf!"
Lu Buwei's body is still in the study, there is not a single servant in the mansion, and Mrs. Lu is weak and unable to be the master, the mansion is deserted and desolate, but no one feels sorry for Lu Buwei.
A generation of legends has fallen to such a point, so is fate.
·
After Xu Fu and his party left the Chengdu prefecture, it was inevitable that they would go back to their previous positions.Xu Fu still remembered the small town and the dead Wei Niang in that town, thinking of this, the expression on Xu Fu's face was not as relaxed as before.I don't know what happened to those who killed her later.
The carriage stopped suddenly, and the curtain was lifted, revealing Bai Zhou's face, this time he was still the coachman.
"Do you want to rest here?" Bai Zhou didn't know how to call Ying Zheng, so he just omitted the title, for fear that if he accidentally revealed the identity of the king, it would be a big trouble.
Sang Zhong and the others knew what the people in the town looked like, so they didn't want to stay here, but they came here in a hurry, if they didn't take a rest, they would become a big trouble if they were tired.
Ying Zheng didn't know what was going on in the town, so he nodded in agreement.
The people guarded the carriage in the middle and marched into the town.
The town is still as lively as it used to be, with an endless stream of people coming and going. The inn where Xu Fu used to live still has a signboard, and the boss is enthusiastically standing at the door to welcome customers. From a distance, the boss saw this group of people , immediately shook his arms, and said loudly: "But Mr. Xu?"
The boss recognized Bai Zhou driving the car at a glance.
Ying Zheng in the carriage was a little surprised, and turned his head to ask Xu Fu, "The innkeeper in this town also knows you?"
Not to mention Ying Zheng, Xu Fu himself was very surprised, but the boss remembered him firmly as a passer-by, maybe it was just that his appearance was too conspicuous.
Xu Fu raised the curtain of the car, walked down first, and said in a low voice, "It's me."
The boss was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed down, "Mr. Xu, please, it is... my blessing to see Mr. Xu again today!"
Why are you so excited?Xu Fu was puzzled, but instead of stepping in, he turned around to meet Ying Zheng.
Qin Shihuang is still there, how can he step into the door before Qin Shihuang?
The boss's eyes fell on Ying Zheng, and surprise flashed in his eyes. Although he is from a small place, he has seen many people coming and going, except Mr. Xu and the handsome man who walked with him last time. Besides men, has the boss ever seen such a character?The boss thought to himself, he really is a nobleman!
Ying Zheng glanced at the boss, confirmed that there was nothing weird about his excessive enthusiasm, and walked in. Just as Xu Fu was about to follow in, some people came out of nowhere and walked towards Xu Fu enthusiastically. , said again and again: "Mr. Xu, why not come to my place?" "Mr. Xu, come here."
Xu Fu was a little confused.
Did everyone in this town take the wrong medicine?
Ying Zheng frowned displeasedly, and said coldly: "Stop people." So many people were looking at Xu Fu eagerly, it was really annoying.
The attendants blocked everyone out with cold faces. Those people showed timidity and had to back away, but they still kept saying, "Please come to us, Mr. Xu..." For a long time, until Xu Fu went into the inn and disappeared, these people gradually receded.
After checking into the designated inn room, Ying Zheng picked Bai Zhou and Sang Zhong to ask, "When you passed by this place before, what strange things happened? Why are these people like this?"
Sang Zhong and Bai Zhou also looked at each other in blank dismay, and murmured: "I don't know."
Xu Fu didn't enter the room, he found the boss downstairs, and asked very bluntly, "Why are the people in this town so enthusiastic?"
The boss smiled, and said in his mouth: "It's right, right, to treat Mr. Xu like this!"
Xu Fu knew that he couldn't find anything to ask, so he changed the subject and asked again: "What about Wei Niang?"
When this matter was mentioned, the boss' face changed slightly, "Wei Niang...Wei Niang..."
Xu Fu stared closely at the expression on his face. At first Xu Fu thought that he would turn his face because of this incident, protect the interests of the townspeople, and turn hostile towards him, an outsider. There was no hostility in the slightest.
Xu Fu was even more puzzled. After they left, what happened in this town?
"Why can't you say anything?" Since the boss was not hostile, Xu Fu asked with confidence.
The boss put away the embarrassment on his face, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu doesn't need to ask me, he will know." After saying this, he turned around and left in a hurry.
Xu Fu accidentally met the eyes of the inn clerk, the clerk saw him, a look of awe flashed in his eyes, and hurried away.
Could it be that he has become some kind of sinister figure?Even a guy is afraid of him?
Xu Fu was puzzled, so he had to go upstairs to call Bai Zhou and Sang Zhong, and wanted them to accompany them on a tour of the town, so they could always find out some.
Xu Fu went upstairs and opened the door to enter, and called Sang Zhong.What responded to him was Ying Zheng's voice, "how?"
Xu Fu shook his head, "I don't know what happened, I was going to take a walk in the street, maybe I can get something."
Of course Ying Zheng would not veto Xu Fu's intentions, he brought his attendants and even wanted to accompany Xu Fu out of the inn.
A trace of strangeness flashed in Xu Fu's heart.
He always felt that Qin Shihuang indulged him too much.If you say that the past is nothing, but you can't be so considerate every time, right?The man in front of him is Qin Shihuang, Qin Shihuang is not a gentle person!
Xu Fu was still deep in thought, but Ying Zheng had half stepped out of the gate of the inn. He looked back, and Xu Fu immediately suppressed his thoughts and followed closely.
When they were on the street, Xu Fu and Ying Zheng immediately attracted a lot of attention, and after a while there were whispers, Xu Fu couldn't hear clearly, so he could only frown slightly.But not long after walking forward, Xu Fu met a familiar face.
The woman walking across was the person who stopped the carriage when Xu Fu left here.
When the woman saw Xu Fu, she also looked pleasantly surprised. She completely ignored Ying Zheng beside Xu Fu and the attendants behind Xu Fu. ...why...Mr. Xu has...seen again..."
"It's you." Xu Fu replied lazily, looking around, he couldn't help asking: "What happened to Wei Niang?"
Ying Zheng's expression sank when he was next to him.
What Wei Niang?You can tell it's a woman's name.
the second!
Apart from that girl Feng, did Xu Fu also meet other women in this town?Now he still asked that woman with such concern.Ying Zheng's eyes on the woman suddenly became unfriendly.
But the woman was so immersed in her emotions that she didn't notice Ying Zheng's unfriendliness at all.
"The matter of Wei Niang..." The woman couldn't help but blush when she talked about it, "After Mr. Xu left that day, the murderer was punished... After he was carried back, he died shortly after he couldn't be saved. Well, that man is Wei Niang's elder brother. Once he died, Wei Niang's father would be seriously ill... It can be regarded as retribution... If it weren't for the two of them, how could Wei Niang have drowned... "
"The one who killed Wei Niang was her relatives?" Xu Fu couldn't help frowning.Why did he see both of them?Zhao Ji is like this, Zheng Concubine is like this, and even Wei Niang's father and brother are like this.
The woman nodded, tears falling down uncontrollably.
It was even more unpleasant to have Ying Zheng beside him.
Why didn't he think it was so dazzling for a woman to cry before?
"What do they... think? That they would do this to their relatives?" Xu Fu said unconsciously.
The woman shook her head and said: "In the past, Wei Niang admired Mr., now it's inconvenient for me to say more about Wei Niang, so let Wei Niang make a good impression in Mr.'s heart." After finishing speaking, she changed the subject in a hurry, and said: "Since the murderer died, the townspeople have regarded you as a god. You don't know, do you? Even in the temple in the town, there are people who bow down to you..."
Xu Fu was dumbfounded.
Why are people so foolish at this time?Is that why he is regarded as a god-man?
Xu Fu never thought that people at this time were already in awe of ghosts and gods, not to mention he killed people with a single sentence, how could he teach people not to be in awe?If you don't regard him as the reincarnation of a god, it's already considered good.
Ying Zheng was also a little surprised.The reason why Xu Fu is treated warmly in this small town is so?Thinking that Wei Niang had died, the unhappiness in Ying Zheng's heart immediately receded.As the king of Qin, he still has this measure.Although the woman admired Xu Fu, she was incapable of fighting for it, so naturally there was no need to worry about it.
"I don't know where the gentleman came from, and I don't know if the gentleman will pass by this place in the future... But the people in the town will definitely worship him as a god in the future..." The woman whispered, "Sir, don't forget Wei Wei in the future." Mother, it can be considered that she had only one mind when she was alive."
The person has passed away, but what's wrong with occupying one side of memory?
Xu Fu nodded, and it was a yes.
After the woman finished speaking with Xu Fu, she walked away silently.
Afterwards, Xu Fu walked around the town, looking at the eyes of everyone all the time. At this moment, he also realized that these eyes were indeed full of awe.The boss refused to tell him the inside story, presumably because he was worried about offending him.
When he returned to the inn, the boss graciously brought food and hot water.
Xu Fu got up after resting overnight in the inn, and the staff had already delivered the tub and bath water.It can be said to be considerate.
Soaking in hot water to relieve fatigue, Xu Fu hesitated, and hurriedly stopped the guy, "Did you send water to my neighbor?"
The clerk was stunned. He was listening to the boss's order, so he only remembered Mr. Xu. How could he think of the next door?
Seeing him stunned, Xu Fu knew that he hadn't sent it.Qin Shihuang must have been tired all the way, he was comfortably soaking in hot water here, but Qin Shihuang had no hot water to soak in, Xu Fu felt a little ashamed in his heart, so he said to the guy: "Send a bucket of water to the next door too. "
Xu Fu has an order, how dare that fellow refuse to obey?Right away.
The man backed out and closed the door, Xu Fu turned around and took off his clothes and entered the water. After soaking comfortably, Xu Fu took the bath towel and wiped the water on his body. Halfway through, he looked at the figure reflected on the water, and unconsciously paused.
For some reason, he suddenly thought of the ambiguous mark on Chen Hui's neck that he saw that day, and he suddenly thought of the large red mark on his neck that seemed to have been bitten when he was in the palace. It was very hot, so I specially invited a doctor to come...
Xu Fu unconsciously shook his hand, and the bath towel in his hand fell off.
And Xu Fu was still there in a daze, not picking up the bath towel for a long time.
If...if he read it right, then...then the traces on his body should also be ambiguous traces.But he slept with Qin Shihuang every night, who could leave marks on his neck?
That terrifying idea popped up in Xu Fu's mind again.
Emperor Qin Shihuang!
Did Qin Shihuang really have a habit of breaking sleeves? !
Before Xu Fu was sure what he was thinking, someone knocked on the door, "Sir, have you cleaned up? It's time for breakfast." Outside the door was Sang Zhong.
Xu Fu shivered, feeling a little cold all over his body.
The feeling of having a high fever before was still in his mind, so Xu Fu had no choice but to get up quickly, put on a change of clothes, pack up his things, opened the door and walked out.
"Where's your majesty?" Qin Shihuang's Xu Fu was all on his mind just now, so he asked it out of the way, and after he finished asking, he felt a little embarrassed again.Don't let him be self-indulgent.Even though his face was outstanding, Qin Shihuang didn't look like a person who would be obsessed with beauty.
Sang Zhong lowered his voice, "Should be coming out soon."
Xu Fu realized that he shouldn't call Qin Shihuang that way here, but he had already said it, and it was useless to save him, so he could only continue to pretend to be calm, went downstairs, and waited for the first emperor to come down, and then had breakfast together.
The boss prepared a sumptuous breakfast, although this is nothing to Xu Fu who has eaten delicacies after a thousand years, but the attitude of the boss is evident.
"Mr. Xu is leaving now?" The boss showed a bit of reluctance on his face, as if Xu Fu stayed with him for a while, so he could get some fairy air.
"En." Xu Fu replied without raising his head.
The boss sighed: "If Mr. Xu comes back in the future, he will definitely come to my inn again."
"En." Xu Fu replied casually again, he didn't think he would come to Sichuan in the future, and it wouldn't matter if he agreed.
While speaking, Ying Zheng also changed into a robe and came down from the stairs.
Obviously there is no difference from the past, but after Xu Fu saw Ying Zheng, he unconsciously looked at his tall figure and his stern face.Xu Fu's face was calm, but he was extremely embarrassed in his heart.After eating breakfast awkwardly, the group set off from the town again and continued towards Xianyang.
After getting into the carriage, Ying Zheng found some slips from somewhere, and asked Xu Fu, "Do you want to read the bamboo slips to relieve your fatigue?"
Feeling embarrassed, Xu Fu immediately took the bamboo slip after hearing Ying Zheng's words, and when he opened it, Xu Fu felt a little surprised.
These slips might have been collected in the town. He didn't expect that at this time, in such a small place, there would be similar story books. There were many anecdotes engraved on the bamboo slips, which seemed interesting.
Before he knew it, Xu Fu forgot that there was Qin Shihuang beside him.
He naturally didn't know that Ying Zheng didn't hold a letter in his hand, so how did he relieve his fatigue?Naturally, staring at Xu Fu can relieve fatigue.
Xu Fu looked at the bamboo slips fascinatedly for a while, and soon saw the last story.
It is also a local anecdote.
There was a handsome man who was very popular with women. The local women opened up and offered to show their affection to him.A few days later, a teacher came from the local area. He was well-informed and knowledgeable, and he was more popular with local women than the indifferent and unapproachable handsome man.It's just that this gentleman doesn't like anyone.Some women guessed whether he already had a wife in other places.
Seeing this, Xu Fu secretly said, maybe it's just that the choice of a spouse is too demanding, or like him, he wants to live alone for the rest of his life.
Xu Fu lowered his head and looked down again.
One day, the beautiful man overheard the teacher teaching the students, and the words and sentences he said were exquisite and quite in line with his wishes. The beautiful man became friends, so he invited the teacher to the Fuzhong to discuss studies, and the two gradually became confidants.
Xu Fu thought to himself, wouldn't it be another story about meeting a bosom friend in high mountains and flowing water?
He hurriedly looked back, but his face suddenly changed.
Ying Zheng kept staring at him, and naturally noticed the sudden change of expression on Xu Fu's face, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
Xu Fu was still a little confused, he raised his head, his eyes were in a trance for a moment.
The eyes of the two met, Ying Zheng's eyes were deep, and there seemed to be some emotions in them that he didn't understand.
Xu Fu felt that he was not feeling well, as if something was about to pop out of his chest.His ears became hot, and his mind was scrambling with what he had just seen.
If it wasn't for Qin Shihuang sitting across from him, he would have covered his face with the bamboo slips in his hand.
What the hell is this!
On this day, a scream suddenly sounded in a remote alley, and the passers-by were startled to look into the yard, but they could only see the half-closed door panel and the hem of the clothes passing by.The passer-by was startled, and thought, could it be that he was hit and killed by him?
After a long time, two strong men pushed open the door and came out, dragging a man with a pale complexion and sweating profusely in his hands. The robe on the man's body was already dirty, and he couldn't help crying when he came out. The screaming sound, the appearance is not in a panic.
It's a pity that the man tried his best to hide his face aside, before passers-by had time to see clearly, that face belonged to their governor of Shu County.
The passer-by looked inside the door again, and saw a man with white temples holding on to a pillar, and staggered to a standstill. Not far from him, there were several beautiful women crying.
The passer-by thought secretly, could it be that he was caught in a rape?Then shook his head and hurried away.If this kind of housework is accidentally mixed in, it will be fatal.
·
Xu Fu and Ying Zheng were sitting together in the hall, and the servants of the Sheriff's Mansion brought tea tremblingly.The people in the county guard's mansion were still a little unbelievable, they actually saw King Qin.But seeing that Mr. Xiong Yi was extremely obedient, the fear in their hearts deepened, and they did not dare to doubt his identity at all.
It's just that those people who used to rely on the power of the county guard to bully everywhere are now panicked, fearing that they will be crushed to death by King Qin with one finger.
Not long after, a person came into the hall, leaned over to Ying Zheng and said, "He brought it back."
Ying Zheng nodded, "Go down to the prison, and bring them back with you when you leave for Xianyang. Order Li Bing to come and take office in three days."
The man backed away.
Xu Fu didn't know what Lu Buwei looked like when Chen Hui was brought there, and he was still a little curious.
It just so happened that Ying Zheng said, "Go for the widow and bring the things back..."
thing?what?
"The Empress Dowager Royal Seal."
Xu Fu was startled, "Didn't you stay at Lao Ai's place back then?"
"It's not in Lao Ai's hands."
So Qin Shihuang is here to take away the imperial seal of the queen mother?
"Now that the queen mother has passed away, although the imperial seal is useless, it cannot be left in Lu Buwei's hands." Ying Zheng's face was gloomy, and when he mentioned Lu Buwei, his voice suddenly turned a little cold.
As early as the last time he witnessed Ying Zheng taking back the imperial seal from Zhao Ji, but smashing it face to face, Xu Fu had seen Ying Zheng's overbearing.Even if he doesn't bother to use things, he will never leave them to others.
It so happened that he also wanted to see Lu Buwei's current appearance...
Xu Fu nodded in agreement, "Please trouble the king to send someone to guide me."
Ying Zheng called someone to come, and the man bent down and led Xu Fu out the door.Sang Zhong and Bai Zhou looked at each other and followed Xu Fu.
·
With a "squeak", the courtyard door was pushed open again, and the sensitive person in the courtyard immediately raised his head and said angrily, "Who?"
Xu Fu walked in front, with one hand on the door, he walked in slowly.
Seeing his face, Lu Buwei's expression changed.
"It's you……"
If it is said that he hates Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei hates Xu Fu even more than that.This kind of villain, appearing beside Ying Zheng, fanning and bewitching Ying Zheng, is disgusting, and now he has turned into Ying Zheng's minion, it is even more disgusting!
It was after this person appeared that he could no longer control Ying Zheng.
His defeat began to appear from then on!
Xu Fu raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of Lu Buwei leaning on the doorpost.
How did Lu Buwei age so quickly?A look of surprise flashed across Xu Fu's face.
It is said that power can keep a man forever young.After Lu Buwei lost his power, will he inevitably fall into rapid aging?
The vigor and vigor completely disappeared from his body, and all Xu Fu could see was his white hair at the sideburns, his face with deep eye lines and forehead lines, his yellowish complexion and chapped mouth, as well as the sternness in his eyes, and the hidden secrets. fear.
What else would Lu Buwei be afraid of now?He has lost nothing more, what else can scare him?Because Chen Hui put a cuckold on him, so let him completely sink into depression?
Xu Fu stepped forward slowly, watching the former hero transform into his current appearance.But his heart is very calm, probably because Lu Buwei is standing in a hostile position with him.
"What are you doing here?" When Lu Buwei spoke, his lips were trembling slightly, and a look of embarrassment and anger appeared on his face.Lu Buwei had long heard that a few people had come from Shu, from Xianyang. At first he was a little terrified, but after seeing Xiong Yi's face on the street by accident, he was relieved a lot.If Ying Zheng was really worried that he was living in Shu, and sent someone to kill him, it was absolutely impossible to send Xiong Yi.
It's just that he didn't expect that there was another Xu Fu besides Xiong Yi... Who is Xu Fu?Now that she is so close to Ying Zheng, if there is anyone she trusts in Ying Zheng, he must be one of them.Ying Zheng would be willing to let him come to Sichuan, isn't that purpose obvious?
Lu Buwei's face turned slightly pale.
Xu Fu turned his head to look at the woman beside him who was still crying softly.
These should be the concubines brought by Lu Buwei?
Lu Buwei's face changed again, he said sharply: "Take them down!"
Mrs. Lu came out from inside, she didn't know Xu Fu, she just looked at Xu Fu in surprise, she couldn't understand why Lu Buwei lost his temper so much.She called her servants to take those concubines down, and then retreated.
"The reason why I came here today is..." Before Dai Xu Fu finished speaking, Lu Buwei's expression became extremely ugly.Xu Fu paused, carefully looked at the expression on Lu Buwei's face, and then said: "Mr. Lu, please hand over something."
In order to suppress the panic in his heart, Lu Buwei sneered, and said loudly: "I, Lu Buwei, can I have something worth thinking about now? I asked you to drive here from Xianyang thousands of miles away!"
Xu Fu raised his eyelids, his expression was indifferent, and he didn't pay attention to Lu Buwei's bluff at all, "Where is the Empress Dowager Yuxi now?"
"What is the Empress Dowager's Seal? Now that the Empress Dowager has passed away, it is ridiculous to ask me to get the Empress Dowager's Seal!" Lu Buwei sneered, his eyes were cold and stern.This appearance has a bit of the demeanor of Lu Xiang in the past.
Xu Fu believed what Ying Zheng said. Since he said that he was with Lu Buwei, he was right.Xu Fu did not argue with Lu Buwei, but said coldly: "Mr. Lu will not hand it over, I will take it away today. It's just that Mr. Lu can choose to hand it over voluntarily, or I will find it." Sang behind Xu Fu Zhonghe Baizhou stepped forward, the two of them had a strong aura, and their tall stature also gave people a sense of oppression.
Now that Lu Buwei is no longer Xiangbang, the two of them really want to fight, and Lu Buwei has nowhere to appeal.
His face changed several colors back and forth, Lu Buwei just remembered something.
Chen Hui is the governor of Shu County, who would dare to bring Chen Hui to him to humiliate him?
... Ying Zheng also came to Shu? !
This idea flashed through Lu Buwei's mind quickly, his voice suddenly became dry and hoarse, and the sharp look he made just now was like a castle in the air, and it fell apart with a push.
"It's Ying... King Qin asked you to come to me for the imperial seal?"
Xu Fu glanced at him, and his indifferent gaze had a bit of the charm of Ying Zheng, "I'm not looking for you, but to give Mr. Lu a chance."
Lu Buwei laughed loudly after hearing this, "I never thought that I, Lu Buwei, would be bullied by your little boy." Now Lu Buwei can only show his power with his mouth, he endured the humiliation, gritted his teeth and took a cloth bag from his sleeve , It turned out that he always carried it with him.
Xu Fu raised his eyebrows, reached out to take the cloth bag, opened it, and saw a small square jade inside, which looked very delicate.Xu Fu didn't take a closer look, anyway, he couldn't tell the truth from the fake, so he just glanced at it, closed the cloth bag, and threw it to Bai Zhou beside him.
Noticing the reluctance and unwillingness flashed across Lu Buwei's face at this moment, Xu Fu was sure that the imperial seal should be real.
With Yuxi in hand, he also saw Lu Buwei's current appearance, and there was no point in ridiculing him any longer, so Xu Fu turned around and walked out.When he led the people to the door, Lu Buwei behind him was unable to stand still and fell to the ground.
Mrs. Lu let out an exclamation, hurriedly trotted out, and supported Lu Buwei, and after holding her up, she was horrified to find that Lu Buwei's face was faintly blue.
Lu Buwei gritted his teeth, staring at Xu Fuyuan's back, all kinds of grief, anger and embarrassment flashed across his face... He actually fell in front of Xu Fu!What a shame!
Xu Fu heard the voice, but didn't look back, and walked out with Sang Zhong and the two.
As soon as he left, Lu Buwei couldn't hold back a mouthful of blood from his throat. Mrs. Lu panicked and yelled, "Come here! Come here..." Lu Buwei raised his hand and grabbed her wrist. The blue veins in his veins almost popped out, "It's okay, help me...help me get up..."
Mrs. Lu nodded in panic, and helped Lu Buwei up from the ground. Lu Buwei pushed Mrs. Lu away, staggered towards the study, and when he entered the door, he tried his best to close the door tightly, not letting him in. His embarrassing appearance was displayed in front of everyone again.
He closed his eyes, and it seemed that the voices of people bowing down and calling him Lu Xiang could still be heard in his ears.
How did he ever think that he would be where he is today?He, Lu Buwei, considered himself the most successful businessman with outstanding vision. Later, he became Xiangbang, the father of King Zhong of Qin, and took over the power of a country. He had three thousand followers and wrote "Lu Shi Chunqiu". A stroke of admiration...
Why... why did it become what it is now?
Ying Zheng came to Sichuan, he must be killed... He can't tolerate him... Think about Hu Ji, think about Chen Hui who was in a mess just now, think about Xu Fu who came here... and The faces of Lao Ai and Zhao Ji flashed across his mind... His worries finally came true.
Zhao Ji is dead, and it will be his turn soon.
Lu Buwei's face suddenly became distorted, but he didn't want to die in Ying Zheng's hands!
He stumbled to the table, grabbed the wine vessel on the table, and drank it up.
·
When Xu Fu returned to the Sheriff's Mansion, the whole Sheriff's Mansion had already been turned into Yingzheng's territory. He ordered people to make meals and bought good wine. When Xu Fu came in, he saw the food being placed on the table.
Ying Zheng sat at the top, and the place next to him was obviously reserved for Xu Fu.
Seeing him coming in, Ying Zheng asked, "Are you hungry?"
Xu Fu was a little hungry, so he nodded, and the waiter led him to sit down at the table.
After sitting down, Xu Fu discovered that Xiong Yi was not in the hall.Is this a tactful hiding?Xu Fu put the question behind him and started eating with Ying Zheng.It is very difficult to enjoy such a leisurely meal after coming to Shu.At this time, I relax, the atmosphere is natural and happy, and I even use a little more food.
On the one hand, it is harmonious.
On the other side, the night was falling, Mrs. Lu couldn't wait for Lu Buwei to come out of the study for a long time, a look of tiredness flashed across her face, and she ordered the maid to clean up the food.
Mrs. Lu was a little annoyed, what is the Lu family like now?The maids can only afford one, and the meals can only be rough, but Lu Buwei's concubines cause some troubles all day long, even Lu Buwei only knows how to lose his temper, but never thinks about her difficulties.
The more Mrs. Lu thought about it, the more depressed she became, she called a maid to help her go to the study.
"Husband, husband..." Madam Lu called out for a while, but there was no answer. Madam Lu became more and more annoyed, so she knocked on the door vigorously. When the door opened, she walked in, but there was no candle light in the room. Madam muttered to herself, what are you doing?She took two steps forward and saw Lu Buwei leaning over the table, Mrs. Lu stretched out her hand to push Lu Buwei, Lu Buwei suddenly turned over and rolled down from the table, through the moonlight outside the window, Madam Lu saw the blood on Lu Buwei's face .
"what!"
Screams sounded in the silent yard.
·
The catastrophe caused by the flood in Shu was temporarily resolved, Chen Hui was imprisoned, Li Bing was promoted to the post of county guard, and in the long run it was also resolved.
On the second day, Ying Zheng ordered people to pack up their things, prepare their chariots and horses, and prepare to take Xu Fu on the road back to Xianyang.
As soon as the group of people left the Sheriff's Mansion, they saw a person rushing towards them, looked at the people in the Sheriff's Mansion in a daze, and said tremblingly: "...the Sheriff, is the Sheriff here? Then Lu Buwei... is dead!"
Xu Fu was slightly taken aback, a look of surprise flashed across his face.
Lu Buwei is dead? !
He was driven from Xianyang to Sichuan by Qin Shihuang, took off his official uniform, and didn't die. Why did he die today after seeing him yesterday?
On the contrary, Ying Zheng was very calm. He was not even the slightest surprised when he heard the news. He said calmly, "The new sheriff will leave for Chengdu within three days. Let's look for the sheriff then." After saying that, Ying Zheng signaled Xu Fu Get in the carriage.
Before that person understood what was going on, the group of them had already left the city of Chengdu in a chariot and horse.
The man waited for a while before he said: "The new sheriff... what's going on here? Where's the sheriff Chen?"
Mrs. Lu was sitting in the hall of the Lu Mansion, her face was numb due to too much sadness. She waited for a long time, but she couldn't wait for the sheriff to come.She covered her face and cried while cursing, "Chen will be a dog! How did you rely on my Lu family to get the position of sheriff? Now you turn your face and deny anyone! You are a wolf!"
Lu Buwei's body is still in the study, there is not a single servant in the mansion, and Mrs. Lu is weak and unable to be the master, the mansion is deserted and desolate, but no one feels sorry for Lu Buwei.
A generation of legends has fallen to such a point, so is fate.
·
After Xu Fu and his party left the Chengdu prefecture, it was inevitable that they would go back to their previous positions.Xu Fu still remembered the small town and the dead Wei Niang in that town, thinking of this, the expression on Xu Fu's face was not as relaxed as before.I don't know what happened to those who killed her later.
The carriage stopped suddenly, and the curtain was lifted, revealing Bai Zhou's face, this time he was still the coachman.
"Do you want to rest here?" Bai Zhou didn't know how to call Ying Zheng, so he just omitted the title, for fear that if he accidentally revealed the identity of the king, it would be a big trouble.
Sang Zhong and the others knew what the people in the town looked like, so they didn't want to stay here, but they came here in a hurry, if they didn't take a rest, they would become a big trouble if they were tired.
Ying Zheng didn't know what was going on in the town, so he nodded in agreement.
The people guarded the carriage in the middle and marched into the town.
The town is still as lively as it used to be, with an endless stream of people coming and going. The inn where Xu Fu used to live still has a signboard, and the boss is enthusiastically standing at the door to welcome customers. From a distance, the boss saw this group of people , immediately shook his arms, and said loudly: "But Mr. Xu?"
The boss recognized Bai Zhou driving the car at a glance.
Ying Zheng in the carriage was a little surprised, and turned his head to ask Xu Fu, "The innkeeper in this town also knows you?"
Not to mention Ying Zheng, Xu Fu himself was very surprised, but the boss remembered him firmly as a passer-by, maybe it was just that his appearance was too conspicuous.
Xu Fu raised the curtain of the car, walked down first, and said in a low voice, "It's me."
The boss was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed down, "Mr. Xu, please, it is... my blessing to see Mr. Xu again today!"
Why are you so excited?Xu Fu was puzzled, but instead of stepping in, he turned around to meet Ying Zheng.
Qin Shihuang is still there, how can he step into the door before Qin Shihuang?
The boss's eyes fell on Ying Zheng, and surprise flashed in his eyes. Although he is from a small place, he has seen many people coming and going, except Mr. Xu and the handsome man who walked with him last time. Besides men, has the boss ever seen such a character?The boss thought to himself, he really is a nobleman!
Ying Zheng glanced at the boss, confirmed that there was nothing weird about his excessive enthusiasm, and walked in. Just as Xu Fu was about to follow in, some people came out of nowhere and walked towards Xu Fu enthusiastically. , said again and again: "Mr. Xu, why not come to my place?" "Mr. Xu, come here."
Xu Fu was a little confused.
Did everyone in this town take the wrong medicine?
Ying Zheng frowned displeasedly, and said coldly: "Stop people." So many people were looking at Xu Fu eagerly, it was really annoying.
The attendants blocked everyone out with cold faces. Those people showed timidity and had to back away, but they still kept saying, "Please come to us, Mr. Xu..." For a long time, until Xu Fu went into the inn and disappeared, these people gradually receded.
After checking into the designated inn room, Ying Zheng picked Bai Zhou and Sang Zhong to ask, "When you passed by this place before, what strange things happened? Why are these people like this?"
Sang Zhong and Bai Zhou also looked at each other in blank dismay, and murmured: "I don't know."
Xu Fu didn't enter the room, he found the boss downstairs, and asked very bluntly, "Why are the people in this town so enthusiastic?"
The boss smiled, and said in his mouth: "It's right, right, to treat Mr. Xu like this!"
Xu Fu knew that he couldn't find anything to ask, so he changed the subject and asked again: "What about Wei Niang?"
When this matter was mentioned, the boss' face changed slightly, "Wei Niang...Wei Niang..."
Xu Fu stared closely at the expression on his face. At first Xu Fu thought that he would turn his face because of this incident, protect the interests of the townspeople, and turn hostile towards him, an outsider. There was no hostility in the slightest.
Xu Fu was even more puzzled. After they left, what happened in this town?
"Why can't you say anything?" Since the boss was not hostile, Xu Fu asked with confidence.
The boss put away the embarrassment on his face, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu doesn't need to ask me, he will know." After saying this, he turned around and left in a hurry.
Xu Fu accidentally met the eyes of the inn clerk, the clerk saw him, a look of awe flashed in his eyes, and hurried away.
Could it be that he has become some kind of sinister figure?Even a guy is afraid of him?
Xu Fu was puzzled, so he had to go upstairs to call Bai Zhou and Sang Zhong, and wanted them to accompany them on a tour of the town, so they could always find out some.
Xu Fu went upstairs and opened the door to enter, and called Sang Zhong.What responded to him was Ying Zheng's voice, "how?"
Xu Fu shook his head, "I don't know what happened, I was going to take a walk in the street, maybe I can get something."
Of course Ying Zheng would not veto Xu Fu's intentions, he brought his attendants and even wanted to accompany Xu Fu out of the inn.
A trace of strangeness flashed in Xu Fu's heart.
He always felt that Qin Shihuang indulged him too much.If you say that the past is nothing, but you can't be so considerate every time, right?The man in front of him is Qin Shihuang, Qin Shihuang is not a gentle person!
Xu Fu was still deep in thought, but Ying Zheng had half stepped out of the gate of the inn. He looked back, and Xu Fu immediately suppressed his thoughts and followed closely.
When they were on the street, Xu Fu and Ying Zheng immediately attracted a lot of attention, and after a while there were whispers, Xu Fu couldn't hear clearly, so he could only frown slightly.But not long after walking forward, Xu Fu met a familiar face.
The woman walking across was the person who stopped the carriage when Xu Fu left here.
When the woman saw Xu Fu, she also looked pleasantly surprised. She completely ignored Ying Zheng beside Xu Fu and the attendants behind Xu Fu. ...why...Mr. Xu has...seen again..."
"It's you." Xu Fu replied lazily, looking around, he couldn't help asking: "What happened to Wei Niang?"
Ying Zheng's expression sank when he was next to him.
What Wei Niang?You can tell it's a woman's name.
the second!
Apart from that girl Feng, did Xu Fu also meet other women in this town?Now he still asked that woman with such concern.Ying Zheng's eyes on the woman suddenly became unfriendly.
But the woman was so immersed in her emotions that she didn't notice Ying Zheng's unfriendliness at all.
"The matter of Wei Niang..." The woman couldn't help but blush when she talked about it, "After Mr. Xu left that day, the murderer was punished... After he was carried back, he died shortly after he couldn't be saved. Well, that man is Wei Niang's elder brother. Once he died, Wei Niang's father would be seriously ill... It can be regarded as retribution... If it weren't for the two of them, how could Wei Niang have drowned... "
"The one who killed Wei Niang was her relatives?" Xu Fu couldn't help frowning.Why did he see both of them?Zhao Ji is like this, Zheng Concubine is like this, and even Wei Niang's father and brother are like this.
The woman nodded, tears falling down uncontrollably.
It was even more unpleasant to have Ying Zheng beside him.
Why didn't he think it was so dazzling for a woman to cry before?
"What do they... think? That they would do this to their relatives?" Xu Fu said unconsciously.
The woman shook her head and said: "In the past, Wei Niang admired Mr., now it's inconvenient for me to say more about Wei Niang, so let Wei Niang make a good impression in Mr.'s heart." After finishing speaking, she changed the subject in a hurry, and said: "Since the murderer died, the townspeople have regarded you as a god. You don't know, do you? Even in the temple in the town, there are people who bow down to you..."
Xu Fu was dumbfounded.
Why are people so foolish at this time?Is that why he is regarded as a god-man?
Xu Fu never thought that people at this time were already in awe of ghosts and gods, not to mention he killed people with a single sentence, how could he teach people not to be in awe?If you don't regard him as the reincarnation of a god, it's already considered good.
Ying Zheng was also a little surprised.The reason why Xu Fu is treated warmly in this small town is so?Thinking that Wei Niang had died, the unhappiness in Ying Zheng's heart immediately receded.As the king of Qin, he still has this measure.Although the woman admired Xu Fu, she was incapable of fighting for it, so naturally there was no need to worry about it.
"I don't know where the gentleman came from, and I don't know if the gentleman will pass by this place in the future... But the people in the town will definitely worship him as a god in the future..." The woman whispered, "Sir, don't forget Wei Wei in the future." Mother, it can be considered that she had only one mind when she was alive."
The person has passed away, but what's wrong with occupying one side of memory?
Xu Fu nodded, and it was a yes.
After the woman finished speaking with Xu Fu, she walked away silently.
Afterwards, Xu Fu walked around the town, looking at the eyes of everyone all the time. At this moment, he also realized that these eyes were indeed full of awe.The boss refused to tell him the inside story, presumably because he was worried about offending him.
When he returned to the inn, the boss graciously brought food and hot water.
Xu Fu got up after resting overnight in the inn, and the staff had already delivered the tub and bath water.It can be said to be considerate.
Soaking in hot water to relieve fatigue, Xu Fu hesitated, and hurriedly stopped the guy, "Did you send water to my neighbor?"
The clerk was stunned. He was listening to the boss's order, so he only remembered Mr. Xu. How could he think of the next door?
Seeing him stunned, Xu Fu knew that he hadn't sent it.Qin Shihuang must have been tired all the way, he was comfortably soaking in hot water here, but Qin Shihuang had no hot water to soak in, Xu Fu felt a little ashamed in his heart, so he said to the guy: "Send a bucket of water to the next door too. "
Xu Fu has an order, how dare that fellow refuse to obey?Right away.
The man backed out and closed the door, Xu Fu turned around and took off his clothes and entered the water. After soaking comfortably, Xu Fu took the bath towel and wiped the water on his body. Halfway through, he looked at the figure reflected on the water, and unconsciously paused.
For some reason, he suddenly thought of the ambiguous mark on Chen Hui's neck that he saw that day, and he suddenly thought of the large red mark on his neck that seemed to have been bitten when he was in the palace. It was very hot, so I specially invited a doctor to come...
Xu Fu unconsciously shook his hand, and the bath towel in his hand fell off.
And Xu Fu was still there in a daze, not picking up the bath towel for a long time.
If...if he read it right, then...then the traces on his body should also be ambiguous traces.But he slept with Qin Shihuang every night, who could leave marks on his neck?
That terrifying idea popped up in Xu Fu's mind again.
Emperor Qin Shihuang!
Did Qin Shihuang really have a habit of breaking sleeves? !
Before Xu Fu was sure what he was thinking, someone knocked on the door, "Sir, have you cleaned up? It's time for breakfast." Outside the door was Sang Zhong.
Xu Fu shivered, feeling a little cold all over his body.
The feeling of having a high fever before was still in his mind, so Xu Fu had no choice but to get up quickly, put on a change of clothes, pack up his things, opened the door and walked out.
"Where's your majesty?" Qin Shihuang's Xu Fu was all on his mind just now, so he asked it out of the way, and after he finished asking, he felt a little embarrassed again.Don't let him be self-indulgent.Even though his face was outstanding, Qin Shihuang didn't look like a person who would be obsessed with beauty.
Sang Zhong lowered his voice, "Should be coming out soon."
Xu Fu realized that he shouldn't call Qin Shihuang that way here, but he had already said it, and it was useless to save him, so he could only continue to pretend to be calm, went downstairs, and waited for the first emperor to come down, and then had breakfast together.
The boss prepared a sumptuous breakfast, although this is nothing to Xu Fu who has eaten delicacies after a thousand years, but the attitude of the boss is evident.
"Mr. Xu is leaving now?" The boss showed a bit of reluctance on his face, as if Xu Fu stayed with him for a while, so he could get some fairy air.
"En." Xu Fu replied without raising his head.
The boss sighed: "If Mr. Xu comes back in the future, he will definitely come to my inn again."
"En." Xu Fu replied casually again, he didn't think he would come to Sichuan in the future, and it wouldn't matter if he agreed.
While speaking, Ying Zheng also changed into a robe and came down from the stairs.
Obviously there is no difference from the past, but after Xu Fu saw Ying Zheng, he unconsciously looked at his tall figure and his stern face.Xu Fu's face was calm, but he was extremely embarrassed in his heart.After eating breakfast awkwardly, the group set off from the town again and continued towards Xianyang.
After getting into the carriage, Ying Zheng found some slips from somewhere, and asked Xu Fu, "Do you want to read the bamboo slips to relieve your fatigue?"
Feeling embarrassed, Xu Fu immediately took the bamboo slip after hearing Ying Zheng's words, and when he opened it, Xu Fu felt a little surprised.
These slips might have been collected in the town. He didn't expect that at this time, in such a small place, there would be similar story books. There were many anecdotes engraved on the bamboo slips, which seemed interesting.
Before he knew it, Xu Fu forgot that there was Qin Shihuang beside him.
He naturally didn't know that Ying Zheng didn't hold a letter in his hand, so how did he relieve his fatigue?Naturally, staring at Xu Fu can relieve fatigue.
Xu Fu looked at the bamboo slips fascinatedly for a while, and soon saw the last story.
It is also a local anecdote.
There was a handsome man who was very popular with women. The local women opened up and offered to show their affection to him.A few days later, a teacher came from the local area. He was well-informed and knowledgeable, and he was more popular with local women than the indifferent and unapproachable handsome man.It's just that this gentleman doesn't like anyone.Some women guessed whether he already had a wife in other places.
Seeing this, Xu Fu secretly said, maybe it's just that the choice of a spouse is too demanding, or like him, he wants to live alone for the rest of his life.
Xu Fu lowered his head and looked down again.
One day, the beautiful man overheard the teacher teaching the students, and the words and sentences he said were exquisite and quite in line with his wishes. The beautiful man became friends, so he invited the teacher to the Fuzhong to discuss studies, and the two gradually became confidants.
Xu Fu thought to himself, wouldn't it be another story about meeting a bosom friend in high mountains and flowing water?
He hurriedly looked back, but his face suddenly changed.
Ying Zheng kept staring at him, and naturally noticed the sudden change of expression on Xu Fu's face, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
Xu Fu was still a little confused, he raised his head, his eyes were in a trance for a moment.
The eyes of the two met, Ying Zheng's eyes were deep, and there seemed to be some emotions in them that he didn't understand.
Xu Fu felt that he was not feeling well, as if something was about to pop out of his chest.His ears became hot, and his mind was scrambling with what he had just seen.
If it wasn't for Qin Shihuang sitting across from him, he would have covered his face with the bamboo slips in his hand.
What the hell is this!
