Chapter 2 today, brothers, do you still have support? Xiaoyang is eagerly looking forward to it.
……………………………………………………
As the sunset glowed, Ziqin rode his horse into Daliang, the capital of the Wei Kingdom that was more than two thousand years away from Ziqin's original time.
Lord Xinling's mansion is not too luxurious, but it has a special atmosphere.
There are huge trees in the mansion, and courtyards of various sizes are built among these big trees. Although they are not as exquisite as the buildings of later generations, they are full of primitive beauty.
When Ziqin arrived, Lord Xinling came to the gate to greet him and expressed his great importance to Ziqin.
However, after entering Xinlingjun's residence, Xinlingjun had dinner with Ziqin alone, with no one else around.
"Lian Jin is an unparalleled talent. His achievements along the way would make all the famous generals in the Seven Kingdoms blush."
Naturally, it is impossible to eat alone without saying a word. At this time, Lord Xinling finally showed his true character as the leader of the four princes of the Warring States Period. Not only did the food taste the same as Zi Qin, but he also showed great respect for Zi Qin in his words.
.
"War is only a small way, but the national economy and people's livelihood are the main road. The war is not purely military, but economic. If the Qin State does not reform and become stronger, I am afraid that it may not be able to deter the six countries."
Zi Qin's words were extremely indifferent. Lord Xinling was indeed a great hero, but he did one thing wrong. That is, he should never have the desire to conquer him. It was just like the original work. He and Xiang Shaolong both did.
They come from modern times. If the world were unified after Qin, these people from modern times might still be forced to loyal to this feudal country because of the situation.
But at the end of the Warring States Period, when the world was uncertain, people like them from modern times would never be willing to be conquered casually, even if they didn't have the slightest ambition.
"It's just that Lord Lian Jin Guan Xinling is in danger."
Before Lord Xinling could speak, Ziqin had already spoken first.
Lord Xinling's method of conquering talents is nothing more than those few tricks: courtesy to virtuous corporals, carrot and stick. In the original work, Lord Xinling used the latter trick against Xiang Shaolong, scaremongering, and then extending an olive branch.
Lord Xinling followed the original work. Ziqin did not want to learn from Xiang Shaolong. He was far stronger than Xiang Shaolong and had three thousand elite cavalry under his command, but he was already enough to be a chess player in this game.
People who can be chess players would never want to be chess pieces even if they wanted to.
When Ziqin spoke out his words, Lord Xinling suddenly looked stunned. He already had countless plans in his mind, and he had even braced himself so that he could have the best response to whatever Ziqin said.
However, all his plans were planned based on Ziqin being moved by his words, but he never expected that Ziqin would fight back and attack him so fiercely.
"What do you mean by Lian Jin's words?"
After being slightly startled, Lord Xinling's expression returned to normal. He was also very human. However, he did not rush to deny Ziqin's words. Instead, he pretended to be indifferent and said.
"Mr. Pingyuan died not long after Handan was relieved of the siege. I think Lord Xinling should know why. Even though Lian Jin is not a smart man, he also knows that Lord Pingyuan has made great contributions to Zhao. He also did not disobey King Zhao's order. Such people will die early.
.What's more, what Your Excellency Lord Xinling did on the surface seemed to be of no benefit to the State of Wei, and seriously violated King Wei's orders."
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Ziqin's mouth. Seeing Lord Xinling's face gradually stiffening, he felt extremely happy. This feeling of having everything under control was really great. Every time he felt this way, he felt extremely disgusted with the main world.
In other words, he is extremely disgusted with those people in the main world, so he desires to be strong even more, strong enough to ignore any rules.
"This time we went to Daliang. On the way, we met a gray-bearded man, who belonged to Lord Longyang. We also met two groups of horse thieves, but they were men from other countries. Finally, we met a group led by Xiao Wei Mou, a master of Qi State.
Thousands of cavalrymen, I think no matter how bad the Wei state is, ten thousand cavalrymen from other countries will not be able to sneak into the country."
Ziqin continued to speak, and Lord Xinling's face finally showed surprise beyond the stiffness. What he thought was a secret had already been revealed. After this feeling appeared, Ziqin immediately looked different in Lord Xinling's eyes.
Lord Xinling only felt that Ziqin was no longer someone he could conquer, and his fear suddenly appeared. For a moment, Lord Xinling even wanted to recruit guards to kill Ziqin, but then he put away this idea.
As Ziqin expected, Lord Xinling and Lady Pingyuan were both momentary heroes, but they were both able to act in accordance with the times. Therefore, even though Lord Xinling was extremely afraid of Ziqin, he knew that this was definitely not to kill Ziqin.
a good time.
"Long Yang really fought fiercely with me."
Without waiting for Ziqin to continue speaking, Lord Xinling opened his mouth and confessed the fight between himself and Lord Longyang.
This was a seemingly insignificant statement, but Ziqin slowly smiled and picked up the wine glass.
Many times, many words contain different meanings. This is the mystery of Chinese. Perhaps an insignificant word can express countless meanings. Of course, only smart people can understand the meaning.
"Daliang is very busy this time. Lord Xinling, please be careful. You must know that as a Wei official, he is also the target of the country with ulterior motives. If you meet someone crazy, even the King of Wei will be in danger."
After drinking a glass of wine, Ziqin spoke with concern. Lord Xinling's body suddenly trembled, and he looked at Ziqin in disbelief.
The doctor is in danger, and even the King of Wei is in danger.
These two sentences expressed two meanings, but Lord Xinling couldn't believe his understanding. However, looking at Ziqin's hint of a pointing smile, Lord Xinling understood that his understanding was absolutely correct.
.
"I will naturally be careful, because these people came to Daliang for the Secret Records of Lu Gong that I obtained. Perhaps the person who did such a thing is the person who obtained the Secret Records of Lu Gong."
Lord Xinling trembled and then regained his composure. He put down his wine glass and suddenly lowered his voice and spoke in a pointed voice.
"Perhaps Lord Xinling's Secret Records of Lu Gong had already changed hands when the doctor died. You know, someone who can do such a thing is definitely very powerful."
Ziqin slowly poured himself a glass of wine, tilted his head and looked at the rippling wine and smiled.
This time, Lord Xinling did not respond, but pondered for a long time.
It wasn't until the water streaks in Ziqin's wine glass had disappeared that Mr. Xinling poured himself a glass of wine and poured it into his mouth in one gulp.
"I think so."
Mr. Xinling almost squeezed the six words out from between his teeth.
"I just don't know how the King of Wei is in danger."
When he said the words "It's always been like this", Lord Xinling's expression was still very ugly, but in the blink of an eye, Lord Xinling's face had returned to calmness, and he asked in a very indifferent tone, as if he was concerned.
"Haha, this is a secret, just like the secret that a thousand people can kill ten thousand people."
Ziqin smiled indifferently, but spoke with a sense of confidence. When he mentioned that thousands of people killed ten thousand, Lord Xinling's expression trembled slightly, and he even spilled a few drops of the wine in his hand.
"I heard that the stone maiden of Wei is famous all over the world. All celebrities, swordsmen, and local nobles who come to Wei will go to the banquet hosted by the beautiful lady, Mr. Xinling. We might as well go tomorrow to join in the fun, and maybe we can meet Long Yang.
Jun."
Ziqin noticed that Lord Xinling spilled the wine in the glass but did not say a word. He stretched out his hand to support his head. Ziqin seemed to be completely relaxed, holding the wine glass leisurely and speaking.
"Long Yangjun is by no means a simple person. It's best not to offend Lian Jin."
Lord Xinling did not wrinkle slightly, and seemed a little displeased. This was different from the original work. In the original work, Lord Xinling had everything in hand, but Lord Xinling had no scruples about Xiang Shaolong seeing Lord Longyang. At this time, Lord Xinling and Ziqin
It was just a transaction, and it was still a shameful transaction. But Lord Xinling was extremely afraid of being exposed at this time.
"We are all smart people. If we have grudges with others during the day and kill others at night, wouldn't we be stupid?"
Ziqin sighed slightly, then drank the wine in the glass and stood up staggeringly.
"Your Majesty, please help me arrange a room. I don't want to sleep in the open."
Ziqin clasped his fists in a polite gesture, and then waddled out of the dinner hall. Naturally, there were people waiting outside the door. Mr. Xinling's ability to win people's hearts was unparalleled in the world. There is no way he can do it now.
Help Ziqin arrange accommodation.
Ziqin left, but Lord Xinling sat motionless in the hall, and a look of fear gradually appeared on his face.
As Ziqin said before, Lord Xinling at first thought that Ziqin meant that he would not deal with Lord Longyang for the time being, but then he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and realized that what Ziqin meant was that if there was a conflict with Lord Longyang during the day,
Long Yangjun died at night. Although it would make people suspect that he was the murderer, it also proved that he was not the murderer, because even revenge for people of their height would not be so obvious.
This is a kind of psychological speculation that is completely opposite to the so-called motive of committing a crime in ancient times. Such psychological speculation has not yet appeared in this era, so Xinlingjun was shocked by the psychological method of speculation that Ziqin said.
Lord Xinling, who was already extremely wary of Ziqin, now became even more afraid of Ziqin. After this fear developed, Lord Xinling did not say that he did not dare to deal with Ziqin, but he was also very worried.
Gai Yin already had the impression in Lord Xinling's mind that if he couldn't deal with people like Ziqin at once, it would definitely bring disaster to himself.
The next day, Qin got up early to practice the Wuxiang Gong. During these days, Ziqin never relaxed even when he was walking. Although he still didn't feel angry, Ziqin felt that his brain seemed to be much clearer.
After practicing the Wuxiang Kung Fu, Ziqin began to practice every kind of martial arts he had ever learned, including killing swordsmanship, bloody battle swordsmanship, precept-breaking swordsmanship, and swordsmanship. Ziqin practiced all these martial arts skills over and over again with great patience.
However, although most martial arts cannot show any power in this world due to rules, and they are even unsightly when practiced, Ziqin practiced them extremely seriously.
After practicing every martial art, it was already noon, and Lord Xinling also sent someone over to greet Ziqin at this time.
Ziqin followed the servants of Lord Xinling's mansion to the outer hall, and immediately saw Lord Xinling drinking tea with three people. Although the plot had changed a bit, many things remained the same.
Ziqin's eyes swept across these three people, and finally rested on a burly but ugly man.
When Ziqin glanced over, the burly man and the other short man immediately looked back. Just by making eye contact with Ziqin, he was sure that these two men were highly skilled in martial arts.
The ugly man Ziqin remembered that he was Zhu Hai, a model of a generation of knights, but the other two Ziqin no longer remembered who they were.
Fortunately, Lord Xinling introduced them again, and Ziqin finally knew the names of the other two people. One was named Tan Bang and the other was named Le Xing.
"A strong man is the one who saves Zhao with a golden hammer. Zhu Hai is famous in Handan City."
Zi Qin did admire Zhu Hai very much. When he was a child, Zi Qin read Li Bai's "Xia Ke Xing Xing" for the first time and was deeply impressed by this heroic man. This impression would not be seen for another hundred years.
Don't even think about it disappearing.
"This poem is quite good."
After saying this, Zhu Hai touched the back of his head and smiled stupidly. Lord Xinling looked stern, but Tan Bang suddenly high-fived him in praise.
"This poem was not written by me, but by a great sage from the Zhao Kingdom. Unfortunately, this old man didn't like the King of Zhao as a person. So he never became an official, even though he was famous."
Ziqin said humbly.
At this time, the so-called poetry books had not yet become the only thing for literati, so Tan Bang and others were not too shocked by Ziqin's poem. After chatting for a few words, they left Xinlingjun's mansion in two cars.
The place where everyone ate was still the Danyang Tower in the original work. However, unlike Xiang Shaolong's confusion, Lord Xinling explained to Ziqin on the way. The status of Danyang Tower in Daliang is roughly similar to that of Yanhui Tower in Handan.
They are all top-notch restaurants. Most of the princes and nobles would go to this Danyang Restaurant if they were not dining at their own residences.
The most important thing is that Lord Xinling has received accurate information, and he will definitely meet Lord Longyang in Danyang Tower today.
Even Ziqin was helpless about Xinling Lord's confidence. This era was the most chaotic era in China. But it was also the most prosperous era, with hundreds of schools of thought covering everything. In this era, China was unparalleled in the world.
of.
At the same time, this era was also the time when China's various military techniques and tactics took shape. After hundreds of years of disputes, people in this era have already understood war many times better than later generations. People in this era have already used things like espionage.
As pure as fire.
Therefore, Ziqin had no choice but to deal with Lord Xinling's confidence. He couldn't do this kind of espionage. Even if he was given ten years, he would never be able to reach the level of someone like Lord Xinling in this era.
.
At the same time, Zi Qin gained even more knowledge in the restaurant. The original work only commented on Tan Bang's words and deeds in one sentence, but only by being there in person did Zi Qin know how clever Tan Bang's words were.
The hundreds of schools of thought were mentioned one by one in Tan Bang's mouth, but Ziqin finally knew which of the hundreds of schools of thought he had heard about earlier. From time to time, he heard Tan Bang exemplify one or two of the hundreds of schools of thought.
This example of a great virtuous person made Ziqin's eyes shine with brilliance.
If any Chinese could hear their ancestors speak these most detailed analyzes of China's splendid civilization, they would probably be as fascinated as Ziqin.
When Tan Bang mentioned that Xun Qing, Zou Yan, and Han Fei were the best among the three sons, Ziqin finally couldn't help but exclaimed.
After all, "Xunqin" was read by Ziqin a long time ago, and even Tan Bang no longer remembers it, let alone that Tan Bang mentioned Xun Qing, the teacher of Li Si and Han Fei.
"Is what Tan Bang said wrong? Why did Lian Jin scream?"
Tan Bang looked at Ziqin strangely, and even Xinlingjun and the other three couldn't help but look at him in surprise. They also didn't understand why Ziqin exclaimed.
"I'm afraid there is something wrong with what Tan Bang said. There is only one person in the world today who can be said to be the culmination of ancient and modern achievements, and that is Xun Qing."
Ziqin smiled bitterly. He didn't want to say this, but when he thought of Xun Qing, he couldn't help but speak. Because he knew how terrifying this person was. Although Han Fei was tyrannical, Tan Bang didn't know Li Si, just because
At this time, Li Si was still a minor official and had never studied under Xun Qing.
"Han Fei's talent and learning are less than one-tenth of Xun Qing's. Han Fei is a Legalist, but Xun Qing is the master of all the schools. Moreover, Xun Qing has a scholarship that no other school has. This scholarship is called the art of the emperor."
Ziqin smiled bitterly and spoke, and everyone including Lord Xinling couldn't help but take a breath of air. After the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, there was no emperor at this time, but everyone knew what the word "emperor" meant. If it were someone else talking about himself
Those who possess imperial skills will be ridiculed by others, and even killed by those in power.
But if people like Xun Qing say that they have an academic skill that can be regarded as the art of emperors, it will only shock the world.
"How did Lian Jin know this scholarship?"
Everyone was shocked, but Lord Xinling was thinking more. Even spies from various countries had not known about such secrets, but Ziqin seemed to have known about it for a long time. This was really strange.
"There are many things in this world that I don't know, but there are also many things that I know that are insignificant and insignificant."
Ziqin smiled and shook his head and drank a glass of wine. Mr. Xinling's eyes flickered for a few times and finally did not ask again. Next to him, Tan Bang's eyes showed a thoughtful look. Zhu Hai and Le Xing seemed to tense up for a moment.
, and then let go again.
Lord Xinling smiled slightly and was about to say something else, but Ziqin suddenly perked up his ears.
"Someone is coming."
Ziqin put down his wine glass and looked at the door with interesting eyes. After a while, Zhu Hai and Le Xing stopped their wine glasses at the same time.
The two people's eyes finally showed a look of horror. At this moment, they had also heard the footsteps, but they were a few breaths later than Ziqin. With their martial arts skills to this point, they understood what these few breaths represented.
"Your Majesty, Lord Longyang wishes to see you."
Outside the door, a guard came in to report, and everyone present looked even more shocked.
The relationship between Lord Xinling and Lord Longyang has already been openly broken up. This Lord Longyang definitely came to visit because good people don’t come, and people who come are bad. However, I don’t know how this son came so boldly to come directly to his door.
Only Ziqin present had a faint sneer on his lips, "Why, kill me. This seems to be the only thing that happens frequently in this era."
"Your Majesty, you might as well let him in. I think Lord Longyang is not willing to let his lackey be killed by me. If so, how can Lian Jin retreat? You might as well see this beautiful man from the Wei Kingdom and, by the way, kill him with determination."
Ziqin still had a playful smile when he spoke, but it was only in the last few words that the cold murderous intent emerged from the lines. Even masters like Zhu Hai and Le Xing couldn't help but feel excited.
