Three thousand occupations can be introduced

"

"Ji Rui, speaking of which, how many years have you been with me?" Zhou Xu asked him with a very casual attitude, as if he had brought it up suddenly.

"It has been more than ten years since the Supreme Emperor gave me to work with my master when I was ten years old." Jirui thought of the scene he saw for the first time: "The peach blossoms are burning, and the beauty is so delicate. There is a fairy, Fei Yiyu Decorate, hold flowers and smile."

This picture hit his heart in an instant, when he was still young, he knew he had to practice martial arts well and protect this delicate master like a flower.

"Master was still young at that time."

"Really? Am I quite tall?" Zhou Xu argued. When he saw that Jirui in his memory, he had bright eyes, a cool complexion, was dressed in black, and was thin and frail. Weak but a gifted warrior.

As soon as he saw him, he fell in love with this stubborn boy.Thinking that he must be auspicious and safe in the future, because he has no name, and knowing that he has practiced martial arts since childhood, he named him Jirui.

But later, he still regretted putting this stubborn and old-fashioned genius warrior by his side, but he complained several times in his heart and never took it to heart.

In fact, Zhou Xu suspected that if he left Jirui, it would be as if he lost his arm.

"Ji Rui, I'm asking you, you have to answer seriously. If one day I die before you, what will you do?" Zhou Xu had to ask this question.

He once asked about Jirui's ideals, knowing that he yearned for a life of swordsmanship, and also knew that his personality was not suitable for officialdom. Zhou Xu was afraid that if he died, Jirui would lose his foundation.

"Master, what are you talking about?"

"Ji Rui, why don't you just talk?"

"If the master dies, the humble will never live. In the sky and on the earth, the humble is willing to accompany the master, saddle and horseback."

"I will be the master as a living figurine." Jirui replied seriously, he could come up with this answer at any time, a man dies for his confidant, he has already identified the master, and this life will not change.

Just like the sword given by the master in his hand, this sword is the only weapon he has used in his life.

"Nonsense, nonsense. It's unreasonable!" Zhou Xu no longer knew how to express his anger.You, you are really...

"Since the Han Dynasty, there has been no such thing as living figurines. The Eastern Zhou Dynasty has lasted for thousands of years. Counting from the Western Zhou Dynasty, there has never been the theory of burying living people in all dynasties. You have made a good start. Especially the Taizu unified Slavery was abolished after the Central Plains, and you actually say such things, what should I say?"

"This is a dehumanizing thing. If you really do this, where will you put me?"

"Master, calm down, don't be sad because of me." Ji Rui didn't know that his words would make the master so angry.

The master can't get angry, otherwise the old disease will be repeated, but what he doesn't know is that Zhou Xu is already terminally ill and there is no cure.Zhou Xu just wanted to arrange a retreat for him.

18. Entering the Eastern Zhou Dynasty with the princess

Princess Heqin's chariot tent has arrived in the outskirts of Kyoto.

According to the etiquette for a small country to meet a big country, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty only needs to be greeted by the etiquette officer.But with the talk of marrying the princess, it is not known whether the princess is the future queen, and there has been no precedent for this matter before.In addition, the imperial court was busy with the disaster of the Yellow River, and the ceremonial officials did not dare to report such things and did not reply.

"Etiquette officer, greet people and treat them according to the etiquette of an equal country, and I will handle the rest." Zhou Xu's voice was flat, but it was extremely calming.

"The next official will handle it quickly." The etiquette officer raised his chest and raised his voice.He went happily, and with King Xuxian as the leader, he has the confidence to do this.

The state affairs of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty had their own regulations, and everything could be executed quickly.As long as someone comes up with the charter, the efficiency is extremely high.What's more, the etiquette officer has already prepared a lot, and only needs to add the same amount.

"Ji Rui, let's go, let's see if this princess is real or not." Zhou Xu thought for a moment.He was more likely to see Zhou Che earlier.He still has more than a year to live, and what he cares most about is his twin brother.After being separated for many years, he wanted to spend some time with his brother.

Outside the city gate, Zhou Che negotiated with the envoys of the Yelang Kingdom, and then entered the most prosperous capital.

The sound of gongs and music, the rigorous team, the Yelang Kingdom with different styles of ceremonies and costumes, just made them talk about it, and it didn't cause much disturbance.

The envoys of the Yelang Kingdom were shocked, they did not expect that the state of the capital was so fascinated by the splendor of the capital, and the people of the capital were so proud.He was unheard of, unseen.A sense of inferiority arises spontaneously!

A "woman" sitting quietly in the princess's sedan chair is looking out through the thin blouse. This bustling and prosperous Kyoto will surely become in his hands.This person is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Yelang Kingdom who is disguised as a woman that no one knows.

The person he pretended to be the heir apparent in the Kingdom of Yelang.No one thought that he would take the risk to come to Eastern Zhou.

He raised his eyes to see the people from Kyoto walking slowly, who were not disturbed in the slightest and did not look at the excitement, and smiled in his heart: These people in Kyoto are really old-fashioned, and they look like ordinary things in the world. Is it really possible for a generation to raise them? of.

He took a brief look at the topography of the capital, and was amazed. After thinking for a while, he understood the mystery.The princess sedan passed the Zhuangyuan upstairs, passed the restaurant, passed the wine shop, passed...

He pictured them one by one in his heart, and in a moment he remembered the news from the spy who had been hidden for more than ten years in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty: "Fu Shuo Min Shuo, everyone is poetic and prose. Wuhuatianbao, outstanding people."

He smiled carefreely, only a monarch who has governed with such elegance is worthy of being his enemy, and he still doesn't like wine bags and rice bags, so he wants to see if this little emperor of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty is worthy of being called his enemy.

Zhou Che, wearing a mask, rode his distinctive white horse in the lead, and beside him was a petite guard with a dark face who was slightly behind him.There was a forbearance of excitement in her eyes. She was originally a secret agent, but she died because of a mission accident, and when she woke up again, she became an unfavorable princess in the Yelang Kingdom.

Agents are the secret weapon of every country. They engraved the country into their blood from the very beginning of their training. From then on, there is no self, only the country is the most basic criterion.Then we can talk about training methods and strict requirements.

There are not many top spies in a country, just because it costs a lot to train them. If they don't even have the most basic patriotism, they may become double agents and cause great harm.

China has always been commendable internationally in this respect.

And this strange agent who has traveled through is a successfully trained agent who regards the country as his spiritual support.Although she is a child of the Yelang Kingdom, she does not agree with this barbaric country from the bottom of her heart.When she finished collecting the information of this world, she knew the general environment she was in. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, 400 years of war, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty unified the world in the devastated Central Plains. .

This is a stubborn cognition, but no one can break it.

That's why she did these things with the princess, and she joined forces with General Zhou Guo.She wants to see this hot land with her own eyes.

The chariots and horses are Xiaoxiao, and they arrive at the place to welcome them.

Zhou Xu smiled harmoniously, Zhou Che was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly got off his horse, walked up to him, and then stood still and saluted: "King Xuxian, you are polite." Zhou Che didn't know that it was his brother who picked him up in person, so he was very excited .But in front of outsiders, he still tried his best to endure.

Zhou Xu raised his hand, "Who is this?" It was the petite man with dark face who dismounted with him who asked.

"This little brother's name is Zhu Gong, and he has extraordinary skills."

"It's a pleasure to meet you." In just a few words, Zhou Xu knew that this should be the real princess.Isn't the bamboo bow the princess?

The envoy and the etiquette officer talked happily.

The envoy came to meet Zhou Xu under the guidance of the etiquette officer.

"King Xuxian has been famous for a long time, and it is very rare to see him today." The envoy envied him, seeing that King Xuxian was indeed a celestial being, he felt a great pity in his heart.

"Courtesy."

His Highness who was hidden in the princess sedan chair heard it and looked at it from a distance, and smiled in his heart: "It's hard to be worthy of a great name, he must be a person who loses his reputation because of his gold and jade." The longer he stayed in ancient times , the more he despises those who spread their fame, the more he admires the doers.

Zhou Xu faintly felt a stinging gaze cast over him, but he ignored it.After laughing with the envoy for a while, he handed over the arrangements to the etiquette officer.

Then went to the palace with Zhou Che.The team led by Zhou Che also returned to the place where he was stationed under the arrangement of his deputy.

The etiquette officer arranged everything properly, and the princess didn't say a word during the period.

On the way to the palace, Zhou Xu asked the black-faced princess some questions. According to the original answers, it was not enough to convince him whether the princess really wanted to be for Dong Zhou.

The three of them did not go straight to the palace, but entered an ordinary house halfway.

That private house is hidden in the street market, from the outside, there is no difference.It is very easy for the follower to lose the target. This is another interpretation of "the big hermit hides in the city, and the small hermit hides in the wild."

"Princess, from my point of view, this Yelang country is your mother country. Even if your father and your brother treat you badly, there seems to be no reason to treason, right?" Zhou Xu's plain voice contained sharpness, accusing Treason is the greatest humiliation that can be done to a man.Once he said this, it was hard to take it back.

The black-faced princess said with a cold face, "Yelang Kingdom and I have a sworn hatred." After she became the puppet princess, she slowly realized that her mother's country was destroyed, her mother was humiliated, and finally died of depression. .The original body was subjected to all kinds of cruel treatment, and finally died of starvation
