"Chief Nongyu, my two brothers will also raise the flag of righteousness at that time. At that time, my peasant ancestors were suppressed by the aristocratic forces because they said that the princes and generals should be together.
To this day, we will raise the flag again and shout this slogan. The anger of people who have been suppressed by this world for too long will completely burn the foundation of the empire."
Wu Kuang's speech attracted a lot of attention.
Princes, generals, and ministers would rather have their own kind. The weight of this sentence and its inflammatory nature are simply too strong.
As long as Chen Sheng and Wu Kuang shouted this slogan, raised the banner of anti-Qin, and successfully achieved some results. It is unimaginable how many ambitious people will emerge in the future inspired by this.
Even though the new era has not yet begun, everyone present is a hero. How could they not know the meaning behind these eight words?
Xiang Liang immediately paid attention.
When the Chu State was still there, the farmers and the Xiang family had a lot of grudges. Looking at Chen Sheng and Wu Kuang, they not only wanted to take revenge against Qin, but also wanted to become their own power, make contributions, and even become kings and hegemons.
Gai Nie frowned and seemed to sigh slightly.
Wei Zhuang chuckled beside him, "Why, princes, generals and prime ministers would rather have the guts. Don't you like these eight words?"
"..."
Of course Genie didn't like it. These eight characters meant ambition, war, and more people would die.
But Genie knew very well that if bloodline nobles controlled resources and maintained governance through blood relations, they should be swept into the garbage dump of history. Even if a war breaks out for this reason, it is inevitable.
"Whether you admit it or not, this is an inevitable law. Everything in the world is governed by vertical and horizontal forces. No matter how human beings develop, as long as they are still human beings, vertical and horizontal forces are the law of constant strength."
"..."
Historically, the term "strategist" basically disappeared after the Qin and Han Dynasties. However, the art of vertical and horizontal has long penetrated into social history. As Wei Zhuang said, as long as human beings remain human, the art of vertical and horizontal will never go out of style.
Gai Nie turned around and faced Wei Zhuang. After their eyes met, he looked at Mr. Guigu's ring in his hand.
"Perhaps, you are right. But I also believe that as long as we are still human, our dreams will last forever."
"Dream? Ridiculous!"
Wei Zhuang snorted coldly and stopped paying attention to Gai Nie.
What he hates the most is people like Gai Nie, who can clearly see the reality, but cannot grasp the reality clearly.
Gai Nie didn't pay attention and just closed his eyes silently.
"Princes, generals, and ministers would rather have the seed. Yes, I think I was just a person in the dust back then, and my life was like a piece of grass."
Nongyu's background is considered to be extremely poor here. When she first married Lu Yan, she was stabbed in the back by many people.
There is no other reason, just because you are lowly. Why can't you scold someone for clinging to a high branch?
She suddenly had some thoughts in her heart, and asked Chen Sheng and Wu Kuang: "Palace Master Chen, Hall Master Wu, how about you lend me the Qilin Club your eight-character slogan?"
"Chief Nongyu was joking, just one sentence, please do as you please."
"good."
At this time, Nong Yu had not yet realized that with such a light word, she had usurped the historical status that should have belonged to Chen Sheng and Wu Kuang.
…
As far as the results are concerned, the anti-Qin alliance was established quite happily. The incident provoked by Wei Zhuang in the middle was just an episode. Not only did it not affect the alliance, but it also made everyone aware of Nongyu's strength.
However, after the mass gathering ended, Chen Xiao met with Nong Yu alone.
…
The moon and stars are sparse and the evening breeze is blowing.
The forest was so quiet that Nongyu could even hear two chicks quarreling in a nearby nest.
Chen Xiao sat in the gap between the trees, draping the moonlight on his body.
Upon noticing Nong Yu's arrival, he stood up from the ground and held the Zhan Lu Sword in his hand.
"Sir, are you meditating?"
"That's right."
Chen Xiao lowered his head and looked at the scabbard of Zhan Lujian.
"At the end of September in the seventeenth year of the Qin Dynasty, Mr. Lu Yan held the first grand celebration to enjoy the people. It was at that time that Zhan Lujian came into the world.
At that time, I thought that my moral cultivation was far inferior to that of Mr. Lu Yan, and I was not qualified to take charge of Zhanlu, so I took the Zhanlu Sword to Handan, hoping to see the real owner of the Sword of Humanity.
However, the result was unexpected. Mr. Lu Yan was unable to pull out Zhan Lu. From then on, this sword has been in my hand for ten years. Alas~"
Nongyu feels that Chen Xiao is a bit strange. You asked me to come to meet you. What's the point of sighing?
"Sir, what's on your mind? During the day, I saw that although your husband agreed to the alliance, he didn't say a word and was always lost in thought."
"What I'm thinking about is Mr. Lu Yan."
"Um?"
Nongyu frowned slightly, secretly complaining: Husband, what's going on with you? No matter whether you are a man or a woman, why are there always people thinking about you?
"The Zhanlu Sword changed in the hands of Mr. Lu Yan, and there was an extra picture on the scabbard."
"Is there an extra painting on the scabbard?"
"yes."
Chen Xiao held the Zhanlu Sword in front of him. Nong Yu took a closer look and saw a strange line drawing on the scabbard.
At the beginning is a long, winding line, extending forward intermittently;
After the long lines are broken, there are uneven irregular shapes one after another;
After that, it becomes flat again until the end of the scabbard.
"In the past ten years, whenever I have a little free time, I will think hard about this scabbard, hoping to understand the secret of the divine sword."
"Listen to what you mean, sir. Do you understand the secret of this now?"
"Today, when I heard my wife talk about the plan to fight against Qin, I suddenly had some speculations in my heart."
Chen Xiao suddenly looked at Nong Yu, his face serious and his eyes solemn, "Madam, please tell me the truth. Mr. Lu Yan has foreseen the development of the world situation to this day. Even if the world is turning against Qin now, it is Lu Yan who
Part of sir’s plan.”
Nong Yu was shocked when he heard this. He didn't know how he could have such an idea. Could it be that in his imagination, Lu Yan, a dead master of the Qin State, could predict the future?
"Mr. Lu Yan has never died, and has been secretly exerting influence on the Qilin Society, Mrs. Nongyu, right?"
Nongyu immediately moved away from Chen Xiao, looked at him warily, and held down the hilt of the sword at his waist.
"Mr. Chen Xiao, who exactly are you?"
Nong Yu couldn't believe it. He didn't know about Canglong Qisu, didn't know about the organization that existed for thousands of years, and had no contact with Lu Yan at all, but he could accurately guess these things. Chen Xiao's identity was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
"Um?"
Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment by Nong Yu's sudden alertness. Then his pupils trembled and he immediately realized that all the guesses he had just mentioned were probably correct.
"Mr. Lu Yan is really not dead..."
"Controlling the world situation and gathering national consciousness through great defeats is exactly what I thought..."
Chen Xiao took a deep breath, his eyes gradually became sharper, and the azure sword energy under the moonlight began to dominate.
"Such a wanton determination of the will of the people of the world, regardless of the lives and deaths of countless people, and even deliberately taking advantage of the severe suffering in the world to achieve the so-called national consciousness. Is this Mr. Lu Yan's way of saving the world?"
"Mr. Chen Xiao, you misunderstood."
"Mrs. Nongyu, I have no intention of targeting you. Please tell me where Mr. Lu Yan is now."
