Emperor Qin

The gap in the Guanzhong Plain is not big. In order to build the Zhengguo Canal and its branch canals, the roads near the canals are relatively complete. In addition, Yan Jiang rides a good horse. He looks like a big man at first glance, and the procedures are complete. Therefore, the officers and soldiers along the way did not dare to ask more questions. It can be regarded as unimpeded for a while.

There are also guesthouses in the middle, but you have to check the biography. Shang Yang was arrested back to Xianyang from the report because he didn’t pass on the enthusiasm. Fortunately, Yan Jiang had already prepared three sets of suitable identities to change at any time, and he was carrying a paper And sugar and other property, all the way without hindrance, all the beans for Ah Huang are the best beans, the kind that the poor can't eat.

Because Ah Huang's golden hair is too conspicuous, Yan Jiang even painted it into a dark horse with ink.

Ah Huang is very calm about this and has long been used to it, but even so, it is tall and handsome, with extraordinary momentum, even people who don't know anything about horses can tell at a glance that this is a thousand-mile horse.

Relying on Ah Huang, Yan Jiang admired the folk customs of the Zhengguo Canal and the countryside along the way, and asked the old farmers here how much corn they harvested in a year, how they lived, and the hydrology and climate along the way, and recorded them one by one. , Write it down as a travel note, His Majesty especially likes to read his travel notes, and if you don't understand, you like to point your paw to let him explain clearly, otherwise people, horses and horses will not be able to live in peace.

One man, one horse, one bird and one tiger walking on the road can be called leisurely, without the slightest fear of being hunted down.

The only pity is that when encountering living people, Huahua has to stay far away, otherwise it will be particularly disturbing to the people.

A group of people crossed the Luoshui River, and the swimmer Huahualu swam over by boat, and they reached the east line of the Yellow River. They saw the waves rolling, roaring from north to south, rushing to the sea, where the Yellow River turned for thousands of miles, forming the word "ji". The last turn on the lower right, washed out the natural danger in Guanzhong.

The east bank of this mother river that loves domestic violence children is extremely dangerous and often floods. In ancient times, it could not be an economic belt at all. There were very few ferries. , not far from the ferry is Hangu Pass.

Next to this Hangu Pass is the raging Yellow River. It is two gaps only a few meters in the middle of the cliff. The words that one man guards the gate and ten thousand men do not open it come from here. There is a military camp and city built next to it. The Qin State is as stable as a rock, and it is difficult for the six countries to enter.

The horse can't follow the rock climbing——Yan Jiang thought about it, and sold Ahuang to a Korean businessman who was waiting to deliver the goods back to China at the Hangu Pass. He said that his little nephew was about to reach his twelfth birthday, and this horse would surely make him happy, so Ben didn't care about the clause that Qin Shi had to enter the market for business transactions, so he gave ten pieces of gold and quickly ran away with the horse.

His Majesty looked over his shoulder at the repeated tricks, and his heart was full of indifference after being galloped by thousands of horses.

I never expected that I have seen this routine so many times, and there will be a day when I am fooled, and it feels frustrated.

Yan Jiang hummed a ditty and said that after passing through Hangu Pass, Ah Huang could run freely in the Hedong Plain. It was hard work for him these days. Then he greeted Huahua and walked around the cliff next to Hangu Pass. In the past, this kind of dangerous mountains and mountains, not to mention the army and ordinary people, are full of familiarity to Yan Jiang. Gosuo soldiers shovel mountaineering handcuffs, and they can open the way even if there is no road. The king is not worth mentioning. It only took two days to bypass it. The latter also bit a wild goat for his majesty's extra meal.

Then he caught up with the caravan, smiled and exchanged the horse for gold, and gave him an extra piece of brown sugar as an apology—although he changed it quietly, because he only lit a mosquito coil, and in less than half a moment, Ah Huang was gone. He brought the businessman to the owner to kiss and hiss, and "accidentally" stepped on Huahua's hoof, which made the latter growl. It wasn't the owner who stopped him, he wanted to scratch it.

The businessman looked at Huahua's body, which was twice the size of an ordinary tiger, and refused in every possible way, saying that the ten gold would be given to the husband, he really didn't want it, please let me go-but Yan Jiang refused, saying that he was not That kind of person still needs to make amends, but the businessman can't shirk it, so he ran away quickly.

Yan Jiang rejoiced that there are still many good people in the world, and then led the horse on the road, first passing through Sanmenxia, ​​the most dangerous part of the Yellow River. Because there are three giant reefs with different heights in the river, there are three rivers, which are called the three rivers of people, gods and ghosts. Accidents of hitting the rocks and killing people often happen here, and the term "mainstay" was born here. Unfortunately, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it has become a peaceful Swan Lake Park, and only one piece of the mainstay mountain can be seen in the Sanmenxia Reservoir.

Going down the Yellow River is the land of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. It is a pity that when the Five Kingdoms joined forces a few years ago, Lord Xinling made Zhou Tianzi the leader of the anti-Qin alliance, not to mention the collapse of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Lu Buwei continued to lead troops without stopping Occupying the last piece of land in the Zhou Dynasty, he regarded Luoyang, the eastern capital, as his fiefdom.

Yanjiang travels to Luoyang, where Luoshui flows into the Yellow River according to the water, and you can go to Qizhao in the north and Wuchu in the south by boat. The business is prosperous, brown sugar and yellow paper have been sold here, and there are even many books rubbed in Xianyang. Sufficient supply, even if it is a bit more expensive, is still in short supply.

If it wasn't for being wanted by the king of Qin and not being able to stay for a long time, he would rather stay and watch for a few more days.

After passing through Luoyang, you will enter the land of South Korea in the south.

But after walking a short distance, Yan Jiang felt different—if the life of the common people of the Qin State is bitter, after all, there are countless conscripts, but the common people of the Qin State are not like this—numb, yes, numb, Qin What the local men never forget is to go to war and make meritorious service. Every time soldiers (soldiers) are recruited, most of the wives and children wait at the door, telling their husbands to get as many heads as possible, and not to run away and kill their family members.

The people here are gloomy, as if they can't see their first day. He wanted to ask Tian Fu, but unfortunately he didn't know Korean. Willing to help find a few foreign language talents to teach him.

Just as he was thinking, he ran into that businessman again by chance.

Only this time, the businessman was not as frightened as last time, but dismounted cautiously, knelt down and prostrated: "I have seen Shangqing."

"..."

"Why didn't you say that the King of Qin didn't arrest me?" Yan Jiang rubbed His Majesty, puzzled on the guest bed of Zhang's house, almost wanting to see what King Qin was thinking, "It's embarrassing for him to do this. , how can I continue to play? Forget about these two years, after two years, when he marches eastward, can I still have fun?"

Now that Qin has not started to destroy the six countries, it is naturally fine. When South Korea is destroyed, the five countries will be in danger, and he, the Shangqing of Qin, is wandering around the enemy country. Can others feel at ease?Maybe the army will arrest him to sacrifice the flag.

The owl looked proud, and its claws landed on his wrist, no matter how he moved, it would not let go, like a large bird pendant.

"Forget it, how long can we last, and today we met that businessman Zhang Xu, why did he suddenly treat me so respectfully? I'm just a minister, and I have no real power." Yan Jiang was slightly confused, "I need help from others." ... What good thing do you think our king is doing?"

His Majesty is even more proud.

At this moment, the businessman who arranged for them to stay came and said that he had something important to discuss, so he knelt outside the door and refused to leave.

Yan Jiang was curious for a while, so he took the bird to see.

"I beg Shangqing to save my lord, I would like to give you a thousand pieces of gold as a gift." The other party opened the door very sharply, and it was a big gift of three kowtows and nine obeisances.

"You've flattered me," Yan Jiang said with a smile, "There's no need to be in a hurry, let's go to the table first and talk."

So they sat opposite each other on the table, and Zhang Xu carefully poured water for him: "My name is Zhang Xu, I was born in the Zhang family of Xinzheng, Korea.

"Is that so? Yan Jiang was rude." Yan Jiang said gently, he didn't report his clan, because he didn't, which also means that he is white, "I don't know what to ask for?"

Zhang Xu said sadly: "Shangqing didn't know something. A few days ago, your country suddenly sent troops to Xingyang, pointed at Han, and forced the young master to enter Qin, and said that Zhang Ping, the head of my family, was exhausted. , I want my whole family to go to Qin State to build the canal, if the canal is not completed, the Zhang family will not be able to return to the country for a day."

"..." Yan Jiang was speechless for a while, what does the king of Qin want, didn't he find Han Fei to join Qin after a few years?And why buy one get more free? Has Zhang Liang's family ever entered Qin Dynasty?It's not written in the history books!

"When I first entered Korea, I heard the bad news. I was about to go back to Qin to ask for help, when I met you, Shangqing..." Zhang Xu said in a low voice, "Shangqing, you are favored by the King of Qin, and I hope you can help me." Help, save my family, Mrs. Zhang must be very grateful, a dog and a horse work together!"

"How can I be favored... Oh, it hurts, don't grab me." Yan Jiang pushed the big bird on his shoulder away, scratching his clothes, but fortunately there was no bleeding.

His Majesty is even more proud.

Yan Jiang sighed, there was nothing he could do with it, and then he turned around apologetically and said, "This matter is quite big, can you allow me to think about it for a night?"

"Naturally, I should. Please help me, my lord. It's all up to you." Zhang Xu kowtowed again, Yan Jiang didn't dodge any more, accepted him and watched him leave.

Then he turned off the lights and changed into black clothes, took his bags, turned over the window and left - just changing horses to cross the border and then stealing horses. Zhang Xu must have seen that his departure from Qin State was unofficial. Tie him up first.

Just after turning the corner, he heard Zhang Xu consoling a sad and angry young man in the corridor not far away. Under the lights of the eaves, the young man was only eleven or twelve years old, but he was as good-looking as a young girl. Yan Jiang, who is in Guangzhou, couldn't help but praise the beauty like jade.

His Majesty grabbed him hard, Yan Jiang didn't dare to make a sound, and endured it.

"...This matter is not in the end, Han Wang will definitely not agree, rest assured, Ovary." Zhang Xu whispered.

ovary?Yan Jiang stopped suddenly and leaned over without a sound.

"How can I feel at ease?" The young man forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart, and said hoarsely, "Your Majesty has been seriously ill for several months, and all affairs in the kingdom are managed by Young Master An. My father begged hard the day before yesterday, and said that he would pay for it with his life. Only the son asked the envoy to enter Qin to ask for forgiveness, and let the young and old of my family go—but uncle, look at the son! His father was detained in the palace before he left the palace, and he even sent troops to surround my family. Secret way, I can’t even come out to ask you for help.”

King Han was seriously ill and was about to die. Young Master An didn't want to ask Qin Guo for a favor for their family. He actually wanted to detain them all so that they would not be able to explain to Qin Guo. But for whom did the Zhang family fall into this situation?

"Strong Qin oppresses the border, and there is no place for our family to reincarnate." Zhang Xu was in extreme pain, "I haven't received any news along the way. If you didn't come to know, I'm afraid we will enter Xinzheng and be bound."

"My son, An Mingming, saw that the king was seriously ill. He could ascend the throne and didn't want to cause trouble, so he didn't even have a word of responsibility. But the three generations of my Zhang family have served Han, and they have always done their best in every situation. My grandfather was the prime minister of the three dynasties. In office, just because of Yiqu, do you want my family to take their lives?" The young boy suddenly raised his head and said resolutely, "Uncle, Young Master An is weak and immoral, can we join hands with Young Master Fei to save ourselves?"

The young master is not well-dressed, and he is a master of legalism. If he succeeds, South Korea may not be unable to become stronger.

"Zifang...you are still too young to think clearly. When the Qin Dynasty was defeated and the King of Qin was angry, he bled for thousands of miles. I, Han, have long been in danger. How can I stop it?" Zhang Xu sighed, "It's just that the son is not on the throne. , What can we do, the Qin army will not retreat, what can we do for it. Zifang, you should escape first, go to Qi State, Chu State..."

"No, I won't go, I'd rather build the canal with my father than run away!" The young man mourned, how could he not know this, but how could he watch his family die in Qin Dynasty?

The two hugged each other and wept with great grief and indignation.

Yan Jiang hugged the bird, watched with relish, and then said in a low voice: "Wow, did you see it, this is really a scene of violence against Qin, so don't like Qin, change it."

His Majesty was furious when he heard the words, and clawed him again, but he didn't dare to make a sound, accepted it, and then received several claws...

The author has something to say: It’s almost the end of the month, do you want the National Treasure Ti Fanwai or Zhihu Ti?For national treasures, you can choose the Ashoka Knife and Theodotu Order, and Zhihu’s content is "My wife wants to go out every day to see the beauties ignoring me, what should I do", answered by Yan Jiang.
