[Comprehensive] Taixu Sword Intent

Chapter 103 One step away

Daoist sword cultivators never forge swords easily, because the sword in their hands is the way in their hearts.

Yao Guang has actually held two swords in her life. One is Yuqing Xuanming, which was given by Yu Rui from Chunyang Palace in the past. Unceasingly, the way of swordsmanship was first achieved, but she broke the sword and died in Yecheng; the second day, Shangqing Poyun, was the sword she recast in Xianyang Palace after the sword was broken in Yuqing and her Dao heart was shaken. When the sword was born, A natural vision, a thunderstorm, within the light of the thunder, the past flashed before Yao Guang like a revolving lantern, and the figures of Master Chunyang and Master Yu Rui went away one by one. At that time, her spiritual platform was clear and she finally had an epiphany.The Dao cultivated by Jianxiu cannot be faked by others, and the other Dao is not my Dao. If you want to achieve the Dao, you can only cultivate your own Dao, not borrow the Dao from others.When her Taoism is accomplished, so is her sword heart, and the god-given sword is named "Shangqing Poyun".

In the next few decades, only "Shangqing Poyun" is Yaoguang's "sword", and the saber beside him is just a weapon.

Since Yaoguang re-entered the Qin Dynasty, there were only a handful of times when Shangqing Poyun had to get out of her sheath. Now Shangqing Poyun sang on its own, sensing her shaking in her heart.The Shangqing Poyun was formed in the thunder light, and what was echoed and condensed was Yaoguang's firm oath at that time-despite all kinds of difficulties and dangers, hundreds of thousands of kalpas, smash them with one force, and open up the way to reach the sky.Because of her confusion and vacillation, Shangqing Poyun wanted to "cut" her, cut through her doubts, and regained clarity.

Since Yao Guang was cast into Shangqing Poyun, she has seldom been so confused, and she has no hesitation after the time she preached in Zhao Guo. All the chaos in the world will strip away all kinds of confusion in her eyes It reveals the truth under the turmoil by itself.She can't describe why she can know. The so-called "knowing" cannot be expressed in words. She sees the world as a picture scroll and allows her to walk through it. The sense of detachment in between.

Ji Yanran pointed out that she was not from this world, and asserted that Po Junxing appeared in the troubled times. In a trance, Yao Guang seemed to have caught something.

In the dark, what made her have such an incredible experience?

And before she knew it, where did she go?

When she looked back and reflected on the past, she would feel as if she had passed away. The girl who didn't know how to practice swords on Lunjian Peak in Huashan Snow Ridge had changed into what she is now. Could anyone have predicted it?

She stepped into the rivers and lakes from Chunyang Palace in Huashan, practiced Taoism with a sword, and knocked on the door of Taoism. Where does she want to go in the future, and who does she want to become?

For all the doubts, guesses, and longings, let's temper and torture them in the sword casting process!

Guiguzi was very interested when he heard that Yaoguang wanted to make swords, and immediately took over the matter. He took all the materials and tools for swordcasting, and only wanted to be able to watch while casting swords. There was no other way to agree, so he stayed in Guiguzi, taught Yingzheng Sancai swordsmanship every day, and waited for Guiguzi to prepare everything.

Ying Zheng's talent in swordsmanship is not high. At first, it took seven days to memorize all the sword moves of the Sancai swordsmanship, but now it is difficult to perform them fluently. He gritted his teeth and practiced every day without complaining. What.

Ji Yanran watched from the side, and suddenly said softly to Yao Guang: "I had time to go and see that Guigu disciple, he is more like your disciple than Guiguzi's disciple."

Yao Guang casually peeled off the branch that was used as a sword in his hand, and said with a smile, "It's just a child."

Ji Yanran smiled secretly, shook her head and said, "You think you can't see anything just because you're just a child? As the saying goes, 'Three years old are old, seven years old', for our Yinyang disciples, five or six-year-old children are enough. I can see the future. Is Yaoguang willing to make a ten-year agreement with Yanran? Yanran asserts that this child will be outstanding in swordsmanship and intelligence in ten years, but he will be taciturn, which is very different from Guiguzi in the past."

Yao Guang was slightly stunned and couldn't help but clap her hands in admiration.

Gai Nie's personality will never be formed overnight, the "Sword Saint Gai Nie" she knows is almost the same as the one described by Ji Yanran, how is it not admirable?

Ji Yanran was not very happy to receive Yaoguang's praise, but looked at Yaoguang suspiciously for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "Why didn't Yaoguang ask Yanran if she saw your future?"

Yao Guang was taken aback for a moment, and after looking at Ji Yanran for a moment, he couldn't help laughing.

A few days ago, Ji Yanran revealed her background through watching the stars at night, and today she predicted Gai Nie's future. Did she intend to make her curious?

"The past is known, but the future is unknowable. It's human nature to want to spy on the future, but I don't want to know it from others."

Ji Yanran frowned slightly, and asked, "Why?"

Yao Guang smiled, but did not answer.

After a while, Ji Yanran let out a long sigh, and regretfully said: "If Yaoguang asked, Yanran would definitely say that Yaoguang can only avoid disasters in the future and live in peace by coming to Yinyang's house. It's a pity."

Yao Guang smiled and said, "Yan Ran's words are too much like a lie."

Ji Yanran pouted slightly, snorted, and said, "Yao Guang thinks it's a lie, so it must be a lie."

Yao Guang smiled, walked over to correct Ying Zheng's movements, held his arm and lifted it up a bit, and told him how hard he should use it.

Ji Yanran looked at the harmony between the two masters and apprentices, opened her mouth slightly, opened and closed several times, but did not make any sound.

When Yao Guang came back after correcting Ying Zheng's actions, Ji Yanran had disappeared, so she didn't care, and continued to urge Ying Zheng to practice swords.

After Ji Yanran left, she didn't go far away, she just switched to the other side to watch Gai Nie practice sword.

The little boy held the wooden sword and swung it meticulously, without any slack at all, one blow after another, and only when the movement was completely correct would he continue to swing the next blow.

Ji Yanran looked at it for a while, rested her stomach on one hand, and whispered to herself.

"It's weird... I can't figure it out anyway, why one day... Yaoguang will need Gai Nie to save him..."

Not to mention 20 years, even if 50 to [-] years have passed, it is impossible for Yao Guang to put her life on others, but she is confident that she will not "see" wrong, how can this be explained?

Ji Yanran couldn't think of an answer no matter what, she could only rub her temples and walk back, when she met Guiguzi with a happy face on the way, she knew it.

Guiguzi has been in and out of Guigu repeatedly during this period of time, and many people have been allowed to enter the back mountain. It can only be for the sword casting. Now that he is so happy, what else can he do besides being well prepared?

Guiguzi really smiled and said: "Talented girl Ji, the things needed to forge swords are ready, Daoist Qingxu can open the furnace to forge swords at any time."

Ji Yanran smiled and congratulated, and hurried to inform Yaoguang.

Yingzheng was very excited when he learned that he could start making swords soon, and pulled Yao Guang to ask how the process of making swords is, is he going to make a sword that is unparalleled in the world, who will this sword be given to, and whether he can have his own sword in the future. sword.

Yaoguang didn't expect Yingzheng to be so excited, and finally calmed down. When he talked about the owner of the sword, he was silent for a moment, and finally replied: "I once broke Yan Ping's saber by Shangqing Poyun, and I also promised Give him back a sword, and after the sword is forged, give it to him."

Ying Zheng's excitement had not yet calmed down, he couldn't help being taken aback when he got this answer, and blurted out: "Isn't it for Mrs. Xiang?"

Yao Guang was also stunned, "Xiang Shaolong passed on the sword from Mr. Yuan, so why should I forge the sword?"

Ying Zheng was stunned for a while, not knowing what to think of, his face turned red and then turned pale, he nodded hastily, and answered vaguely.

Yao Guang looked at Ji Yanran suspiciously, and Ji Yanran smiled back with a nonchalant smile, Yao Guang had no choice but to act as a young man with a difficult mind, and let him go, and discussed with Gui Guzi for a while, and decided to open the furnace to forge swords in three days.

Guiguzi led Gai Nie to occupy a good position, and Ji Yanran, not to be outdone, took Ying Zheng to occupy a position opposite the two, waiting for Yaoguang to open the stove.

When the fire was ignited, all the faces of several people were flushed by the heat wave.

The fire was raging, and the fire was dazzling.

Yao Guang's mind was focused on casting the sword, as if the sword blank was himself, hammering, calcining, burning away doubts with the furnace fire, beating the heart with a heavy hammer, and repeating this——

Why are you nostalgic now?

Now there is no nostalgia, only a little worry.

Why are you confused now?

Now there is no confusion, I have the way in my heart.

Why hesitate now?

Now hesitating...

I see a high mountain and look at it from a distance. The peak reaches the top of the cloud, climbs into the mountain, cuts the thorns to form a road, and circles up. I haven’t seen the top for a long time. I don’t know where I am. I just walk alone. , into the clouds, the surrounding is full of mist, I don't know the way forward, I don't know the way to retreat.

When I step back, I can see the beauty of the mountains and forests. When I step forward, I don’t know what scenery is ahead, is it a clear sky, a cliff?

is it in?

Retire?

There is no reason for a sword cultivator to retreat!

Despite all the difficulties and dangers, hundreds of thousands of kalpas, you should slash it with a long sword in your hand, why would you retreat? !

If there are monsters and ghosts in front of you, you can cut them with your sword;

After a lot of tempering, the sword blank finally took shape.

Yao Guang's eyes once again showed a sharp sword intent amidst the gentleness, just like when the Shangqing Poyun was cast at the beginning of the year, the sharpness was completely exposed, and it was impossible to stare at it.

When the sword was completed, Yao Guang closed his eyes and held the long sword with both hands, as if waiting for something.

While everyone was still in a daze, a thunderbolt suddenly struck the long sword in Yao Guang's hand from the clear sky.

Compared with the thunder light when it was cast into Shangqing Poyun, this thunder is much gentler, it only turns the world white for a moment and then disappears, while the lines of the long sword in Yao Guang's hand seem to be infested with thunder light, which can vaguely I saw blue and white lightning flashing.

Yao Guang opened his eyes, with all the determination in them, only warmth and relief remained.

Guiguzi was still talking to Gai Nie in a low voice, Ji Yanran counted with her hands in her sleeves, her expression was a little more surprised.

Ying Zheng rushed forward and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Yaoguang, are you okay?"

Yao Guang smiled and nodded.

Ying Zheng still seemed a little unconvinced. The lightning just now was too scary. He looked Yao Guang up and down several times, and he was relieved to make sure she was really not injured.

"……Great……"

Yao Guang patted Ying Zheng's shoulder with a smile, and handed the long sword in his hand to Gui Guzi.

"Mr. Guigu once wanted to take a look at the sword, please feel free. It would be better if you can add the scabbard when returning the sword."

Guiguzi took the long sword, and after a short look, he was amazed. He nodded happily and said, "This old man doesn't have the sword-making skills of Daoist Qingxu, so it doesn't matter if it comes with a scabbard. What's the name of this sword?"

Yao Guang thought for a moment, then said: "I forged this sword and asked the sky...it's called 'Heavenly Question'."

"Tianwen? It's a good name." Guiguzi praised, and turned his attention to Tianwen Sword again.

Until this time, Yaoguang finally understood why she always felt that this sword seemed familiar to her before. It turned out to be Tianwen... A long time ago, the "Tianwen" she had seen in Xianyang Palace - Tianwen was owned by Qin Shihuang Yingzheng at that time. saber.Although Yaoguang intended to repay Yingzheng, she never thought about recreating the "past" she knew before, but at this moment the "Heavenly Question Sword" is still in her hands, it seems that there is a kind of power in the dark pushes everything.

The shock made Yaoguang silent, and after a while, Yaoguang finally couldn't help laughing.

Now she is only a thin line away from the other side of the cloud and mist, and she only needs to take a step to break through the mist and see everything.Just like the same door, people inside the door will never know what is outside the door, so far, how can she not understand what this one step away means?

After taking that step, maybe she will fully understand what is in the dark, maybe she will no longer be Yaoguang, or maybe she will still be her.

But no matter what, she will definitely take that step.

"gentlemen?"

The young man's voice came to Yao Guang's ears, she came back to her senses, and habitually responded with a smile to the young disciple beside her.

"What's the matter, Zizheng?"

Ying Zheng tugged at Yao Guang's sleeve uneasily, and said nervously, "Mr. just seems to be disappearing..."

Yao Guang smiled, took Ying Zheng's hand and walked back.

"Don't worry, I won't leave, I won't leave until you take the throne."

104,

Yingzheng, Yaoguang and Ji Yanran lived in Guiguzi for more than a month. Yaoguang could only leave when Guiguzi "finally" cast a scabbard to return the sword. When she parted, she looked back.

Holding the wooden sword, the little boy stood silently beside Guiguzi, without any expression on his face, at first glance he could see the epitome of the future sword master.

Ying Zheng didn't know why Yao Guang hesitated, so he looked back and his eyes happened to collide with Gai Nie. He immediately showed a vigilant expression, while Gai Nie remained calm as before.

Ji Yanran bid farewell to Guiguzi with a clever smile, and said with a smile: "Ten years later, Yanran will be waiting for Guigu's master student."

Yao Guang regained consciousness in time, took Ying Zheng's hand and walked out of Guigu.

The three of them came and left with light clothes, except that Ying Zheng had an extra long sword on his back.

Leaving from Guigu and returning to Qin all the way, the road is easier than when it came - because the battle between Qin and Zhao is over.

When the three of them heard the news while passing through South Korea, Yao Guang couldn't help being taken aback, and Ying Zheng couldn't help being a little puzzled besides being excited and pleasantly surprised.In this way, when the three of them returned to Xianyang City, Qin Jun had just arrived outside the border city.

Yingzheng recovered from his illness "naturally", and the two "National Master" and "Taishi" who hadn't appeared for a long time also reappeared in Xianyang Palace. Chu held banquets almost every day, hoping that everyone in the world would know that Qin had defeated Zhao.As a prince, Yingzheng naturally needed to attend the banquet, and he figured out the battle situation in a short time.

It turns out that after Wang Jian was the vanguard and led the surprise attack on the border of Zhao State, King Zhao made a foolish move. He used Lianpo to recuperate in Handan because of his old age, and after listening to the slander of Juluhou Zhao Mu, he took Li Mu into custody for collaborating with the enemy. After the defeat in the Battle of Changping, Zhao Guo's military strength was already weakened. Now that two capable generals have gone, the rest of them are still Wang Jian's opponents. After the victory, when Xiang Shaolong led his army to the battlefield, the Zhao army was routed thousands of miles away, and directly handed over eight cities to the Qin army. Only then did King Zhao panic, release Li Mu, and turn to the state of Wei for help. Unexpectedly, the king of Wei Refusing to send troops on the grounds that the marriage failed, King Zhao was startled and angry, and immediately ordered to recover the convoy of princesses who had been dispatched to marry Wei. Fortunately, Li Mu saved the situation and took back the two cities. Xiang Shaolong sent people to Handan to negotiate a peace, King Zhao agreed to the peace, and the two armies ceased fighting. It was agreed that Qin would take four border cities, and Zhao would redeem the two cities with gold and white jade, and offered a princess as a token of sincerity. The army triumphed.

Yingzheng finished talking to Yaoguang beamingly, took a big sip of water from his cup, and said with a blushing face: "Sir, Taifu Xiang has made great contributions this time, and my father, Wang Dayue, said that he would make Taifu Xiang a great master." General!"

"Great General..." Yao Guang nodded with a smile, "Your Majesty has been resentful towards Zhao for a long time, this big victory will definitely be rewarded by the whole army, not just Xiang Shaolong, I'm afraid there will be a few more generals this time."

"That's right, Yanran is very optimistic about that General Wang." Ji Yanran stroked the purple bamboo flute in her hand, and said with a smile, "First he used the method of alienation to disrupt Zhao, and then he used surprise attacks to make meritorious service, this General Wang is truly a general. "

Ying Zheng was still laughing, and was slightly taken aback when he heard this sentence, "Divorce?"

Ji Yanran glanced at Yao Guang, and said with a smile: "Prince Zheng thought that King Zhao would suddenly make a foolish move to self-destruct the general at such a time, but General Wang just happened to catch up with a good opportunity? The general should take care of himself." Seize the opportunity of victory, but if you want to win the chance, you should not wait for the time to move. If there is a gap to take advantage of, I will take advantage of it, and if there is no gap, then we will go between us, so that the enemy will be suspicious and jealous. Sun Tzu's art of war says that he can use it in battle to win. If the army is blunt for a long time, the force will be weakened, the force will be defeated if the city is attacked, and the country will be insufficient if the division is violent for a long time. Soldiers have heard of clumsy speed, but they have not seen it for a long time. It is impossible for a man to fight for a long time and benefit the country."

Only then did Ying Zheng put away the smile on his face, straighten his expression, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Soldiers are expensive, and speed is the best for the country."

Ji Yanran smiled and looked at Yao Guang leisurely.

Yao Guang sighed softly, and said: "Yan Ran also said that she doesn't know the art of war, but she has memorized what Sun Tzu said. The whole brigade is the highest, followed by the broken brigade; the whole army is the highest, followed by the broken soldiers; the whole army is the highest, followed by the broken army. Therefore, it is not good to win every battle. The good is the good. Therefore, the first is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the diplomatic relations, the second is to attack the soldiers, and the next is to attack the city. Wang Zizheng, do you know how to explain this passage?"

Ying Zheng repeated this passage, and after thinking for a few times before answering: "It is better to win a hundred battles than to win one battle, and it is better to win without fighting. A strong country must first strengthen its army, and a strong country cannot win with its army."

Yao Guang's eyes lit up, and he and Ji Yanran looked at each other. Almost at the same time, the two felt a sense of satisfaction that they had lived up to the hard work of the past. Yao Guang was even more surprised and proud, and immediately hugged Ying Zheng, laughing. : "That's a great word!"

After Ying Zheng gave the answer, he didn't know right or wrong, he was still in a state of apprehension, but suddenly he was embraced by someone, and a faint fragrance wafted into his nostrils. After making a move, the other party had let go and backed away, and said to him with a smile, "If Wang Zizheng insists on studying hard and thinking like this today, within ten years, he will become a master."

"Hey, it's clear that Yanran is right, but she didn't get such intimacy from Yao Guang. It seems that Yanran is old."

Ji Yanran sighed pretending to be sad.

Yao Guang immediately stretched out his hand amusedly and tapped Ji Yanran's eyebrows.

The two laughed and chattered a few more times, and someone from the palace sent a message saying that King Qin had summoned the prince, and Ying Zheng had no choice but to bid farewell to the two.

Ji Yanran held her chin, smiled and watched Ying Zheng walking away with a few steps and turning her head. When the other party was far away, she finally couldn't help frowning and said: "Yao Guang, male teacher and female apprentice, female teacher and male apprentice, young master from ancient times Yes, because there will always be various inconveniences. If it was a child, it would be fine, but now the prince of Zheng can marry a wife and take concubines at any time, Yao Guang should also pay attention to one or two."

Yao Guang looked at Ji Yanran in confusion for a moment, and said, "Thank you Yanran for your kindness."

Ji Yanran looked at Yao Guang's expression and knew that she didn't understand what she was implying. She wanted to persuade her again, but suddenly thought of Donghuang Taiyi's secret message, so she swallowed her words and said with a smile: "I want to come It's also Yan Ran's worry, Yaoguang Daoist real person is naturally different from ordinary people. This time Taifu Xiang has made such great achievements, if he really has to be named a general, he will be the crown prince if he wants to be the prince of politics."

The battle for the prince is not just a comparison between the two princes.The status of the mothers of the two princes, their family background, the support of the ministers in the court and China, and other factors are extremely complicated.Qin Wang Yingzi Chu has loved Mrs. Xiuli for many years, and the prince Chengjiao is by his side all the year round. Naturally, it is impossible to have no feelings at all, but now the noble wife Zhu Ji is deeply loved, and Yingzheng has a national teacher, a grand teacher, a grand master, and a young master. Fu taught that there was Lu Buwei, a Prime Minister in the court, who thought he would help him, and he was on par with Prince Chengjiao, who was supported by Yang Quanjun and others, but if Xiang Shaolong jumped from "Tai Tu" to the title of "Great General", With the help of Wang Jian's "General", the two work together and form a huge force in the army. This force must be used by Ying Zheng. At that time, King Qin would naturally be more inclined to Ying Zheng than the two princes.

Yao Guang understood Ji Yanran's meaning very well, nodded lightly, and said: "It's a pity that Wang Zizheng didn't get the insistence to go out with the army this time, but it's not too important. Now it's only a little bit close, and we have a chance to win."

The well-known Ji talented girl smiled, "I would like to listen to the real trick."

"There is no clever plan for the time being, let's wait and see what happens... It's not us who are most anxious right now."

Yaoguang blinked.

Ji Yanran immediately smiled and nodded in response: "Yes, we have the upper hand at the moment, there is no need to worry, let's see what other tricks Mrs. Xiuli and Mr. Yang Quan can come up with."

The two practiced their swords and qin respectively. They thought that Ying Zheng would go away again today, but who knew that the maid came to announce Wang Zizheng's arrival before it was too late. The two of them were a little surprised. Then he smiled slyly, and looked at Yao Guang with interest, Yao Guang was quite stunned for a while before getting up to meet the two.

"Wang Zizheng, Princess Qian."

Behind Ying Zheng in Xuanyi was not an ordinary maid, but the graceful, dignified and noble Princess Zhao. The elegant and graceful clothes, Qin Fu highlights the dignified temperament, but a careful study of the meaning behind this move makes people feel sympathetic.

Compared with the elegant and gentle princess in Zhao Wang's palace in the past, Zhao Qian seems to have lost the fresh vitality of the day, just like flowers blooming at the end of the season, no matter how beautiful they are, they reveal a decadent and dead air, Yao Guang almost They couldn't believe that this low-browed, pleasing-eyed woman was actually the princess who said that she would practice Taoism with her and leave the country of Zhao.

Ying Zheng seemed a little distracted, impatiently waved back and forth, looked up at Yao Guang, and after deliberating for a moment, said: "Sir, our country has won a great victory over Zhao, and King Zhao presents Princess Qian. I beg my father to give me Princess Qian..."

Yao Guang nodded to express his understanding, and asked, "Wang Zizheng intends to take a concubine?"

Ying Zheng immediately frowned, paced around for a while, gritted his teeth, and said, "I heard that when Mr. Zhao was in Zhao, Princess Qian served the pen and ink, but now Mr. is short of people, how about letting Princess Qian stay?"

Zhao Qian, who was standing behind with her head bowed, trembled slightly.

Yao Guang looked at Ying Zheng for a moment, then smiled and said, "Wang Zizheng cares about me so much, but he is disrespectful. Tomorrow I will report to the King of Qin, and I will definitely not make Wang Zizheng difficult."

All the words Ying Zheng had prepared were stuck in his throat. He looked at Yao Guang in surprise, and finally lowered his head to hide his expression, and said in a low voice, "I'm ashamed. You have worked hard for the government, and you will never forget it."

After finishing speaking, Ying Zheng left in a hurry, leaving Zhao Qian alone in the hall.

Ji Yanran smiled and walked out in silence.

Only then did Yao Guang look at Zhao Qian and sighed.

"Princess Qian, I never thought you and I would meet again in Qin."

Tears welled up in Zhao Qian's eyes when she raised her head, and she choked up after a while and said, "Qian...see the real person. I would like to be by the real person's side."

Ying Zheng walked out of the National Teacher's Mansion, and he let out a sigh of relief. He secretly thought that if Zhao Qian was not stupid, she would never expose her identity. People who know "Zhao Pan" like this... can't keep anyone.

Under the setting sun, the face of the young Prince Yingzheng of Qin was solemn, without any respect, panic or admiration in front of Yaoguang, only cruelty.

105,

A few days later, the army of the Qin army returned triumphantly, and Qin King Yingzi Chu was overjoyed, and greeted him personally at the city gate to show his solemnity.Both Wang Zizheng and Cheng Jiao stood behind King Qin, while Yao Guang and Taishi Ji Yanran, who were national teachers, took a step back behind them. Naturally, all civil and military officials in Xianyang City would not be confused, and they all stood up. Formally dressed and waiting in line, Lu Xiangguo was ahead of everyone, only three steps behind Yao Guang and Ji Yanran.

The army had already received the news that the king might come to greet him in person, Xiang Shaolong, as the coach, was extremely excited.

This was the first time in his life that he led an army to participate in a war, and it was also the first time in his life that he won a big victory, and it was also the first time in his life that he led an army to be welcomed by the king of a country. Is there anything more satisfying than this to satisfy the pride in a man's heart?

At this moment, Xiang Shaolong was riding a tall horse, dressed in military uniform, full of energy, seeing the crowd at the city gate ahead from a distance, his heartbeat couldn't help speeding up, and for a moment he wished he could let out a long howl to express his excitement, but he was still awake and knew this Shi must not be impulsive, so he took the rein and slowly reduced the speed.

When he got near the city gate, Xiang Shaolong got off his horse and knelt down in front of him.

"My minister, Xiang Shaolong, did not disgrace the king's life, but returned it to Zhao Dasheng!"

Ying Zichu was also flushed with excitement, and hastily stretched out his hands to support Xiang Shaolong's arms, and said loudly: "Xiang Qing has made great contributions to my Great Qin's admiration, please hurry up!"

How could it be possible for Xiang Shaolong to follow Ying Zichu's words and stand up straight away, relying on King Qin's strength not being as strong as his own, he knelt down on the spot and loudly reported the achievements and casualties of this expedition. He admired Wang Jian so much that he almost gave all the credit to Wang Jian.

Ying Zichu was taken aback for a moment, thinking in his heart that this was Xiang Shaolong's modesty, and he didn't want to be greedy for merit. Wang Jian was originally promoted by Yang Quanjun, but Xiang Shaolong had no grievances. Said: "This triumphant return, the whole army is rewarded, Xiang Qing is the first, Wang Qing is second, I will never forget the blood that everyone shed for my Great Qin!"

When Xiang Shaolong's goal was achieved, he immediately became happy with the situation.

Ying Zichu was very happy in his heart. He was humiliated in Zhao Duo before, and now Xiang Shaolong led his army to defeat Zhao Guo, which is equivalent to avenging him. In addition, before Zhu Ji and Ying Zheng were able to return to Qin safely, Xiang Shaolong He also made great efforts, it can be said that he has been very kind to his family of three, and he is such a pure and honest gentleman, how can he not be loved!

Ying Zichu smiled kindly at Xiang Shaolong, and returned to the carriage.

Civil and military officials also dispersed and boarded their cars.

Xiang Shaolong took the opportunity to look at Ying Zheng, Ying Zheng nodded slightly, his face was full of uncontrollable excitement, Xiang Shaolong's heart warmed up, he smiled back, then got on his horse, signaling the army to slowly enter the city.

The residents of Xianyang City ran to the streets one after another, admiring the mighty and triumphant army, and it was very lively for a while.

Ji Yanran slightly opened the curtain of the car, looked out through the gap at the young man riding a horse and walking in front of the army, and said with a light smile: "Teacher Xiang will really be a general after he finishes this battle."

This sentence is a pun. On the surface, everyone knows that Xiang Shaolong will be named a great general, but secretly it means that because Xiang Shaolong came from another world, he used to have a relationship with the generals and even the soldiers of this world. There are some differences, but these differences have been wiped out by the war today.

Yao Guang replied indifferently: "Is it not good?"

Ji Yanran looked at it for a while before putting down the curtain, and sighed with a complicated expression.

"It doesn't matter if it's good or bad, it's just..."

Ji Yanran frowned slightly as if she was thinking about what to say, when she caught a glimpse of Zhao Qian who was quietly holding the bamboo slips.Zhao Qian lowered her eyebrows and looked down, she would never even raise her head to peep at them without the permission of the two of them. That silent and humble gesture was really like being a slave for many years.But how could she be a natural handmaid?Everyone knows that just a few days ago, she was the honorable Princess Qian of the Zhao Kingdom.

Ji Yanran suddenly thought of herself, and couldn't help feeling a pain in her heart. If it wasn't because of the collapse of the country and her family, she should have been a princess of a country. How could she be displaced until she finally became a disciple of the Yin Yang family? Still alive, in the eyes of others, she might be well-clothed and well-fed. If she said that she didn't want all of this, she might be said to be ignorant, but in her heart, she would rather continue to wander like that.In a certain place in her heart, there is always an aura, an aura called "unreconciled". She is not willing to live as the eyes, ears, and feet of the Yin-Yang family. She has grown up with the favor of the Yinyang family, but she can't even say "I don't want to".

Ji Yanran is like this, what about Zhao Qian?

Wouldn't Zhao Qian be annoyed?Won't you be sad and angry?Won't you be unwilling?

Just "living" without worrying about food and clothing, is that really what they are looking for?

Ji Yanran's voice subconsciously lowered, "But, is this really what Mrs. Xiang is asking for?"

Become the same as the other people in this world, and eliminate the brilliance brought by those differences when eliminating the aliens that are incompatible with this world. Will such a person really be a "new sage" who can change the general trend of the world?

Yao Guang thought of the down-and-out young man he first saw in Yuan Zong's hiding place, and recalled his curiosity and excitement when he heard about various schools of thought. She can be said to have noticed the changes in Shaolong.No matter how energetic and friendly Xiang Shaolong looks on weekdays, in her heart, the deepest impression of Xiang Shaolong is still the night talk before rescuing Zhu Ji.At that time, Xiang Shaolong took off all superficial things, and his eyes revealed an almost ruthless coldness, which is the eyes of a real warrior who has killed people.

Has Xiang Shaolong changed?

From her point of view, Xiang Shaolong has become more gentle rather than cold.

Yao Guang laughed, and asked back: "Why does Yanran think that all this is not what Xiang Shaolong wanted? No one can go to the battlefield without awareness, and no one can return from the battlefield without awareness. Shaolong is the coach, so Zhao Guo asked for peace in this battle, what's wrong with that?"

Ji Yanran couldn't help being startled.

Yao Guang didn't intend to continue talking, and the car suddenly became quiet.

The carriage slowly entered the palace with the convoy, and Ji Yanran suddenly asked, "Princess Qian, what wish do you have? If only one wish could be fulfilled in this life, what wish would you make?"

Zhao Qian raised her head to look at Yao Guang, and after getting a nod from the other party, she turned to look at Ji Yanran, smiled slightly, and replied: "Grand Master Ji was wrong, now Qian is just Qian, not a 'princess'. If only one wish could Realized, Qian hopes that there will never be a princess like Qian who left her hometown and was given away as a gift in the world, preferably in thousands of generations."

Ji Yanran's body shook, and Zhao Qian looked at each other for a moment, seeing that the other person's expression was firm and unshakable, she finally couldn't help laughing, until she didn't even care about the beauty, she almost laughed out loud.

Zhao Qian didn't know why, so she looked at Yao Guang suspiciously.

Yao Guang smiled and shook his head, motioning Zhao Qian to continue reading, and said with a smile, "Although my wishes and Qian's are different, when my wish comes true, Qian's wish will also come true."

Ji Yanran lowered her head to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, raised her head, her eyes sparkled, her brows raised, and she asked with a smile: "Yanran really wants to know what Yao Guang wished for, do you have the honor to know?"

Yao Guang smiled and replied: "Why not? I wish the world will be peaceful."

Ji Yanran said: "The world is peaceful, so it is necessary to unify the whole country, and use an inexhaustible king to achieve inexhaustible merit. Presumably Yaoguang will choose the Prince Zheng."

Yao Guang nodded without hesitation: "Yes."

Ji Yanran's thoughts flashed, and she said: "Therefore, Yao Guang reached a ten-year agreement with Master, Mohist giant, and Gui Guzi, and they will stay in the same line for ten years."

Yao Guang smiled and said, "Yes."

Ji Yanran said: "But the person who agreed with Yao Guang is the master, not the Yin Yang family, what if there is someone else from the Yin Yang family?"

Yao Guang said leisurely: "Oh? Within ten years, it is so easy to create momentum for others and then influence the world? Besides, among the hundreds of schools of thought, how many can really shake the general trend of the world? Military strategists have never One mind, the two great schools of Confucianism and Mohism are not allowed to be used. What is really worrying now is not one or two heroes, but people like Su Qin and Zhang Yi who have traveled the seven kingdoms. As for the Yin-Yang family... As long as Qin has the power to rule the world, Yin-Yang Jia Mo said that he would not make things difficult for him, but he just wished he could help him with all his strength in exchange for the future."

How can the future "mirage" be built without the financial support of a country?

Ji Yanran smiled, and suddenly said after a while: "Yanran also wishes the world peace."

On that day, there was another grand banquet in the royal palace, Qin Wang Yingzi Chu was accompanied by Mrs. Xiuli and Mrs. Huagui, the two princes sat down separately, Xiang Shaolong and Wang Jian took the upper seat among the guests, and there was a lot of joy among the guests.

The next day, Qin Wang Yingzi Chu Guozhen rewarded the entire army, Xiang Shaolong was named the top general, was appointed as the top minister, and also led the guard, Wang Jian was awarded the title of Zuo general, and was appointed as the minister, and led the army to guard the border after resting and preparing.

Under the Qin regime, military power was returned to the central government during non-wartimes. No matter what kind of general it was, there were not many soldiers in its hands. Therefore, the position of "general" is mostly an honorary title, but the position of "weiwei" is different. He is in charge of the palace guards. He is one of the nine ministers. He has a high position and authority. All of them are appointed by the king himself. They cannot be hereditary.

Xiang Shaolong leaped to such a high position at such a young age, it can be said that he has the same limelight, plus he still has the post of Taifu, he is very close to the prince of Zheng, and he is known as "Lu Xiang's party" , think in the city
