History of Yongwu

颍州

"Ma Wu, I'm leaving tomorrow." Sitting in the dark forest, Qin Yu looked at the open space in front of him and said, "Now believe that I am the King of Jin."

The wind was whistling, and there was no other sound, Qin Yu raised his eyebrows, smiled and picked up the jug beside him, "I know you must be very angry with me, but don't worry, I will help you take care of the little one, wait I will take care of your son secretly when I have pacified the country of Wu."

After pouring the wine under his feet, Qin Yu sniffed the jug, licked the corner of his mouth, shook his head with reminiscence, threw the jug away, turned around, and stopped when he was about to leave.

Behind him, An Ziqi froze in place, looking at him in the dim moonlight with a somewhat embarrassed expression.

"Prince" An Ziqi came back to his senses and hurriedly saluted.

"Cough... when did you come?" Qin Yu was a little embarrassed, it was still strange to be talking to himself in the woods alone.

"Ziqi offended." An Ziqi didn't answer, and pleaded guilty directly.

"Forget it." Qin Yu waved his hand, and led him back slowly, "Why are you looking for me?"

An Ziqi was half a step behind him, with an unnatural expression on his face, he half lowered his head and said, "It's nothing, but I didn't see the prince in the camp, and I'm worried about your safety."

"I really think that this king will die if he leaves you."

"Ziqi dare not"

dare not what?Qin Yu rolled his eyes in front of him and said nothing.

An Ziqi followed beside him, under the light of the moonlight, he smiled softly, "My lord, who were you talking to just now?"

"Ok?"

Jin Wang stopped and looked sideways at him, An Ziqi stopped, his lips were tightly pressed, the moonlight was so beautiful, he subconsciously asked, and it was only when he spoke that he realized that he had overstepped.

Master An's panic made Qin Yu feel that he was making a fuss out of a molehill, turned around and walked slowly, looking up at the moonlight tonight, he suddenly asked.

"Qu Fenghui, are you still in Daliang?"

"Ah... back to the prince." An Ziqi was taken aback, "Mr. Qu didn't go to Daliang, he has been in Jintian"

Jin Tian... I should have gone to see him, Qin Yu nodded and continued walking for a while, before saying, "Qu Fenghui, Ma Wu and this king used to beg for life together, thanks to the two of them, otherwise this king should hard to get a foothold”

An Ziqi pursed his lips and asked hesitantly, "Is that Mr. Ma no longer alive?"

Pfft... Qin Yu suddenly laughed. If Ma Wu knew that someone called him Mr. Ma, he would probably be pissed off.An Ziqi looked at him suspiciously, he stopped in his tracks, suppressed his smile, and said seriously, "He died for this king."

An Ziqi's expression changed, he lowered his head and didn't dare to continue asking.

Qin Yu and him walked slowly, the military camp was far away, and the light of the campfire came. He squinted at Lord An, and An Dinghou looked hesitant to speak, hesitating when he wanted to ask, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"An Hou Ye" Qin Yu stopped, looked at him strangely and said, "Are you really curious?"

"no"

"It is a serious crime to lie to the king"

"··yes"

Haha... Qin Yu laughed out loud, patted his arm and said, "Ben Wang and Ma Wu hid in Hongping Town that year, Wu Jun occupied Yingzhou, traced the whereabouts of King Jin, and sent people to Hongping Town to hunt him down , Ma Wu blocked the knife for the king and died, Wu Jun regarded him as the king, so that the king can escape." He briefly narrated it, and it was not a secret that could not be told to others.

An Ziqi looked surprised at first, then asked, "This is Hongping Town"

"Of course, otherwise how would this king know that an army can be hidden here?" Qin Yu raised his eyebrows and walked towards the camp.

An Ziqi silently followed King Jin, and when he reached the gate of the barracks, his eyebrows twitched, and he suddenly asked, "My lord, why did the Wu army recognize you as Mr. Ma?"

"I have a personal jade pendant, and I put it on Ma Wu's body to escape the catastrophe." King Jin replied, strode away, and walked towards the big tent of the Chinese army.

At the gate of the camp, An Ziqi looked at King Jin's receding figure, slowly reached into his arms, took out the jade pendant, and held it tightly, feeling a wave of fear in his heart.

In the big tent, Qin Yu regretted that he had talked too much, which made him sad all his life, so he turned off the lights, and he returned to the back tent to rest.

In the dream, he saw Lin Wanfeng's stubbornness and anger before parting, and then Ma Wu rushed out from nowhere, grabbed him by the collar and asked why he didn't keep his promise to take good care of Xiaofeng.

Qin Yu wanted to tell him that he would really keep his promise, and that his status was far away to take care of him.

In short, it was Ma Wu who was yelling all night. He was dizzy from the noise, and when he woke up, he thought that Ma Wu had come to seek revenge on him.

Yongcheng

"What is this?" Fu Yusi took what was in Du Xuetang's hand.

"The imperial court newly released the 'Jianping Military System'." Du Xuetang looked at him, his eyes changed and said, "The Empress Dowager wants to hold all the military power in the imperial court's remaining counties and counties, and completely control the imperial court inside and outside."

oh?Fu Yusi's eyes lit up, the queen mother can be regarded as helping him at this juncture, "What do you mean?"

Du Xuetang clenched his hands in his sleeves, and said in a deep voice, "Burn the Jiangbei Dock"

Fu Yusi didn't speak, but just looked at him suspiciously. Seeing this, Du Xuetang approached him slightly, and then said to him, "Since the last big defeat, King Jin has been sticking to Jiangbei. The king did not hesitate to violate the state affairs of the state of Jin and stabilize the capital by marrying the Wei family, but he was unwilling to return to the army, which shows that the king of Jin is very eager, and even put all his eggs in one basket."

"He was afraid that once he returned, the Wu army would take advantage of the victory and pursue him, and he would be trapped in court battles, and he would never have the chance to destroy Wu." Fu Yusi followed his words, remembering the inexplicable urgency of King Jin before.

"That's right." Du Xuetang's slender eyebrows tightened, and the corners of his eyes narrowed slightly, "so the Jin army's morale must have collapsed after the Jiangbei Dock was burned, and they would not dare to confront the Wu army at all. Forced to fight to the death with our army"

"If morale is low, if you insist on going your own way, the King Jin's army will surely be defeated."

A cold light flickered in Fu Yusi's eyes, Du Xuetang was startled when he saw it, he lowered his head slightly, and didn't speak anymore, he had already said enough.

The narrow ancient roads in the mountains and rivers, the lush green trees, and the high and low flying streams in the distance, if the scenery is really unique, but this kind of scenery is a bit tasteless when used in the march of the army.

On the lingering ancient road, Jin Wang's army marched with difficulty, and had no time to take care of the beautiful scenery on both sides. The army entered the mountain for more than ten days. If Jin Wang's army had not always been resolute, they would have been tortured and fled.

At the front of the army, Jin Wang, like everyone else, climbed up with a half-bent body. The mountain road was rugged and he couldn't ride a horse at all.King Jin's army had already abandoned their horses and led them forward.

"Ziqi, how long is it?" Qin Yu stopped and asked.

An Ziqi didn't seem to hear what he said, he was stunned for a moment before he pulled out the map, and hurriedly said, "My lord, we have arrived here, and at this speed, we will probably reach the top of this mountain in two hours."

"En." Qin Yu nodded, wiped the sweat off his brow, caught a glimpse of his pale face, and asked with a frown, "What's wrong with you?"

"The last general is fine." An Ziqi shook his head, took the map back, took out the water bottle and handed it to King Jin, "My lord, please drink some water."

Qin Yu took the water bottle, took a sip of water without asking any further questions, and continued to move forward.

After more than an hour, the sky was getting darker, and the army could already see the top of the mountain slightly. He turned his head and was about to talk to An Ziqi, but he saw Master An looking at the top of the mountain with a smile on his face, and then his whole body softened suddenly. fell to the ground.

"An Ziqi!" Qin Yu quickly squatted down to support him.

He stretched out his hand to check his breath, he was breathing normally, touched his forehead, his hands were covered with cold sweat, it seems that he must be infected.

"Military doctor," he yelled, and the military doctor rushed over from not far away.

The "Prince" military doctor checked it out, and cupped his hands at the King of Jin and said, "Master An just got a little bit of miasma, and I'll be fine with a pair of herbs, drink it and you'll be fine."

"That's good, let's go." Qin Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and waved his hand to signal him to go quickly.

an hour later

The army camped, and the stars and the moon on the top of the mountain were particularly bright. An Ziqi woke up slowly, his eyelashes trembling, and his eyes were slightly squinted by the light.

"You're awake." Qin Yu looked up when he heard the noise.

"My lord?" An Ziqi looked at him and called out uncertainly.

Is the miasma so powerful?Qin Yu stepped forward, leaned slightly and asked, "An Ziqi, how are you?"

It's really you, An Ziqi felt happy, and smiled with the corners of his mouth curled up, then he came back to his senses, and stood up abruptly, "The last general is ashamed, dragging the prince down"

"You should lie down." Qin Yu pressed his head, knocked him down, and said with a smile, "The army has reached the top of the mountain, and you haven't dragged me down."

An Ziqi blushed and didn't speak, but Qin Yu frowned slightly, stood up and said to him, "You have a good rest, this king is gone."

"Respectfully send off the prince." King Jin walked to the door, and An Ziqi's voice came.

Outside the tent, Qin Yu frowned, glanced at the tent behind him, and left with some worries.Why does this king feel a little regretful about letting Lord An go with the army?

The army had rested for two days, and then it was going all the way down to the east. It had been climbing all the way before, and the whole army was already very tired. Qin Yu didn't want the soldiers to fight because they were exhausted physically and mentally.

Although Master An was fine, he was still a little weak, but Qin Yu deliberately didn't ask any more questions, and just asked the military doctor to take care of him. Master An's obscure attitude troubled him.

But Qin Yu was lazy in his heart and didn't want to ask more questions. In fact, he was too lazy to care about everything in his heart. He just wanted to quickly settle the affairs of Wu State and then the affairs of the court. As for what would happen after everything was settled, he didn't know, nor feel important.

Therefore, he didn't want to pay attention to Lord An's thoughts. Anyway, after everything was settled, the world would be far and wide, and if he couldn't see him, he would naturally lose his mind.

There is nothing in this world that cannot be faded away, even if you used to be deeply in love!

The army continued to march. Since Master An was not feeling well, Qin Yu asked him to ride on horseback. An Ziqi was very embarrassed about this, and Lord An would not dare to say more unless he was reprimanded indifferently by King Jin.

After turning eastward, the mountain road is much easier to walk, and the speed of travel is also faster. Qin Yu looked at the map and knew that they should be able to reach Nanyingshui in five days at most.

Across Nanyingshui is the country of Wu, Qin Yu thought, feeling a rare excitement in his heart, which made him happy for a long time.

"Prince" An Ziqi suddenly appeared by his side, got off his horse and asked, "It's getting dark, do you want to rest here?"

Qin Yu looked up and looked around, nodded and said "OK"

An Ziqi retreated, Qin Yu glanced at it, just about to turn around, suddenly caught a glimpse of the place where An Ziqi dismounted, as if something had fallen, he bent down to pick up the red rope, looked down along the red rope, his eyes widened. Change.

The setting sun was falling, and there was a hint of warmth in the simple camp as it shone.Qin Yu walked out of the tent, looked at An Ziqi who was looking down not far away, his eyebrows twitched.

"What are you looking for?"

"My lord!" An Ziqi was a little panicked.

"Looking for this?" Qin Yu hung down the red string jade pendant.

An Ziqi's face turned pale, and he lowered his head halfway without saying a word. Qin Yu looked at him, and he found that Master An's eyelashes were trembling slightly, showing a trace of fear.

"Why is Yupei here with you?"

"My lord..." An Ziqi raised his head, King Jin's expression was cold, and he spat out a word "say"

Kneeling down, An Ziqi lowered his head and said, "The king of Wu sent someone to give this to the last general. They said you were dead and advised me to surrender, but...but the last general didn't believe me, and the last general never did any harm." Prince's business"

An Ziqi raised his head as he spoke, his expression serious and flustered, Qin Yu looked down at him, he never doubted that Lord An wanted to harm him, he just didn't understand why An Ziqi had this jade pendant.

But he didn't explain it either, it might not be bad to maintain this misunderstanding, at least for An Ziqi, after all, he was chilled, so it faded away.

"En." Qin Yu responded calmly, motioned him to get up, looked at the jade pendant in his hand, and said to An Ziqi, "This pendant was given by the late emperor. I have always carried it with me since I was born. Thank you for helping me find it." "

King Jin said that he was about to put the jade pendant in his arms, An Ziqi's eyes widened slightly, and with a feeling of reluctance in his heart, he grabbed King Jin's arm at once.

"My lord, that's..." Mine!

"Let go of the king"

King Jin smiled slightly, but there was no warmth, and An Ziqi lowered his head and didn't move his hands.That was the only thing he had, why would King Jin not allow it, he was reluctant.

"Are you going to disobey?" Qin Yu said with serious eyes, "Let go!"

With a shake of his shoulders, An Ziqi lowered his arms and stood there with his head bowed, looking a bit lifeless.

Qin Yu looked at him, took a deep breath silently, and turned around coldly.

I'm sorry, An Ziqi and I don't want to be like this, but I gradually understand that kindness and soft-heartedness without boundaries are irresponsible cruelty.

An Ziqi looked at King Jin's indifferent back, and his heart was full of coolness. He didn't understand why the King of Jin insisted on taking it away from a jade pendant.

An Ziqi understands that people's hearts cannot be easily changed, but that is the sustenance of his longing, why he refuses to leave even a trace of sustenance to him.

My lord, this is too cold and cruel.
