Xiang Shaolong is sitting alone in the secluded forest garden of Yinlongju. An artificial small spring pours out from a gap in the rocks, forming a meandering stream. There are densely packed strange rocks along the way.lllAt this time, the stream is almost completely frozen
, only a small amount of spring water is left in the middle, which is a strange sight.
Wu Tingfang and others did not dare to disturb him.
The thoughts in her heart were ups and downs. She recalled the first time she met Zhao Ya on the Long Street of Handan, and how she used her methods to conquer her. She also thought of how she was teased by Zhao Mu in the car and couldn't help but become lustful. Then she would empathize with him.
In fact, Xiang had already had signs of this, because she simply couldn't stand any man's teasing.
She just acted willfully and could not care about right and wrong. Otherwise, she would not have known that Zhao Mu was causing harm to the country and the people, but she would still have a passionate fight with him. She would not leave him until he hurt her. If it were Zhao Ni or Zhao Qian, then
Will be threatened to deal with him.
But he still trusted her wishfully. He only saw her charming and beautiful side and believed her sweet words.
Of course, if he rises rapidly in the Zhao Kingdom, their relationship may continue. But now it has been proved that she cannot stand the test of profit.
People in this era are particularly fond of using their "mind skills", and the higher the position, the more so.
Cheng Xu, who had shared hardships together, changed his mind and did not miss his old relationship, which also made him heartbroken.
There are so many things in this world that are just the icing on the cake, and it is rare to find help when times are right.
While thinking about it, he unconsciously followed Mozi's meditation method to move his breath and stop his thoughts. His mind was instantly refreshed, and he was suddenly awakened by the sound of footsteps. It turned out that Tao Fang was looking for him.
I saw my old friend's face looking happy. He brushed off the thin snow on the big stone beside him and sat down, saying, "That kid is worse than I thought. He finally confessed."
Xiang Shaolong counted the time and realized that if he started asking questions from yesterday, he would have been tired for at least thirty hours. It was by no means an easy thing to do. He said happily: "What kind of inside story can I ask?"
Tao Fang said angrily: "Actually, he was just a messenger. He didn't know Zhao Mu's details at all. He only reported the affairs of Chu State verbally, and then passed Zhao Mu's words back to Wen Xinjun of Chu State.
Chu Leng, that is the favored minister of the King of Chu."
Xiang Shaolong asked: "What is Zhao Mu preaching this time?"
Tao Fang said dejectedly: "I only said that I would like to ask Mr. Wen Xin to send someone to deliver gifts in three months. That's a bit special. The rest is ordinary news such as Wei Mou's murder."
Xiang Shaolong's heart moved and he asked, "Are you still interrogating him now?"
Tao Fang said: "Of course I'm afraid that he is just talking nonsense, so I will rely on your words and keep forcing him to repeat the details to see if there are any inconsistencies."
Xiang Shaolong asked: "Has he been to Handan before?"
Tao Fang shook his head and said: "This is the first time he has contacted Zhao Mu. In order to avoid others becoming suspicious, I believe they send different people here every time."
Xiang Shaolong asked: "How long does it take to travel back and forth between Chu and Zhao?"
Tao Fang said: "If we travel quickly, there will be many checkpoints and checks, but the one-way trip will take two months. That's why I suspect this guy is lying."
Xiang Shaolong is proficient in espionage methods and said with a smile: "No, he didn't lie. This is a code word to prevent someone from forcing a confession. Three months may be halved, but it actually means half a year. Giving gifts is ironic. I've already
I thought that if Zhao Mu was sent by the Chu State, he would never let the "Secret Records of Lu Gong" fall into the hands of the Zhao people. So what he really meant was that the Chu people would send experts to steal the secret records back after half a year.
Mu is really loyal to Chu."
Tao Fang suddenly said: "It turns out that this is an irony. It is true to take gifts, not to give them. Chu people are really cunning, and Marquis Wenxin already knew what the 'gift' meant, so he knew it as soon as he heard it."
Xiang Shaolong's eyes flashed brightly: "The most important thing is to find out what identity he pretended to be in Handan and what contact method he used. The more detailed the better. I'm worried that I can't kill Zhao Mu. This trip is really exciting."
Tao Fang began to understand his thoughts and went excitedly.
After Tao Fang left, Jing Jun came to see him, looking listless.
Xiang Shaolong stood up and said with a smile: "It seems that class is not that interesting, is it?"
Jing Jun came to him and said dejectedly: "I was bored to death. I didn't dare to offend my future father-in-law, and I spent a lot of money to buy ten kilograms of bacon as a gift for him. In the end, I couldn't even touch Zhao Zhi's little hand.
.”
Xiang Shaolong said: "Can't I see her?"
Jing Jun sighed: "What's the use of seeing her? With so many classmates, do you really want to go over and touch her? I think most people go to class just because of her."
Xiang Shaolong laughed dumbly and said, "Is she also in class?"
Jing Jun shook his head and said: "At first, she was sitting in a corner, fooling me into thinking she was accompanying me to class. After a while, she smiled and ran away without a trace. I couldn't find her after class. Alas, take the sword.
I won’t go there again.”
Xiang Shaolong shook his head and sighed: "You are too impatient, how can you win the heart of a beauty?"
Jing Jun just shook his head.
Xiang Shaolong said: "Please accompany me for a walk outside."
The two of them changed into ordinary clothes, got on the carriage, and left the castle. Then they slipped out of the carriage at the corner, and Jing Jun hung him from a distance to see if anyone was following him.
Half an hour later, Xiang Shaolong saw Pubu in a dense forest south of the city.
Pu Bu said excitedly: "Things went more smoothly than expected. Zhao Mu's number one subordinate Zheng Yueming recruited us all. I am not boasting. When Lord Yu Pingyuan was alive, our group of warriors were really famous in Handan."
Xiang Shaolong asked: "What's the news?"
Pu Bu apologized: "We have just settled down and can't hear anything. It seems that it will be difficult to gain their trust within a year and a half."
Xiang Shaolong said: "It doesn't matter, you just stay there for a while. I will come back to you then, and I will take you away after completing something important."
Pu Bu said: "Everything is subject to Master Xiang's instructions." He paused and said, "Master Xiang, we only hope to follow you."
Xiang Shaolong said sincerely: "I understand that I will never let down your love and expectations for me."
After the two of them planned a method of contact, Xiang Shaolong said, "Do you know there is a Qi named Qi Yu?"
Pu Bu said: "Master Xiang, that's a good question. The first task of Liu Chao and I is to be his bodyguards and to accompany him around for fun. Hey, this guy is really good with women. Those ladies are like bees when they see him.
It sticks to you like nectar."
Xiang Shaolong felt a pain in his heart, thinking of Madam Ya, and whispered: "Have you ever accompanied him to see Madam Ya?"
Pu Bu said: "That's not the case, but last night he slipped out of the embassy without anyone accompanying him. Maybe he went to find her."
Xiang Shaolong said: "Don't tell anyone about this. Well, if there is nothing special, don't contact me. No matter what adverse actions Zhao Mu has taken against me, don't come and notify me. Don't worry.
remember."
Pu Bu knew that he was very clever and resourceful. Although it was unreasonable to say this, there must be some wisdom in it. He definitely agreed.
After the breakup, Xiang Shaolong returned to Wu Mansion and unexpectedly found Wu Yingyuan, Wu Zhuo and Teng Yi waiting for him.
In the secret meeting room, several of the most important figures of the Wu family: Wu Shi, Wu Yingyuan, Wu Zhuo, Tao Fang and Xiang Shaolong were all present, and there was also an extra Teng Yi, showing his relationship with Xiang Shaolong.
He performed well and gained the trust of everyone in the Wu family.
This is the most important meeting regarding the survival of the Wu family.
Wu Zhuoxian reported: "Teng Yi and I followed Uncle Sun's instructions and selected 500 people from the two thousand elites, and tested them one by one according to the method proposed by Uncle Sun. Unexpectedly, only seventy-seven people can pass the test. Tomorrow
I will start training them, but I can guarantee that these are warriors who can stop a hundred with one."
Xiang Shaolong smiled and said: "You only have ten days, master it well."
Everyone was surprised and asked him why he must have only ten days?
Xiang Shaolong sighed and told the whole story, only concealing the fake Ying Zheng because he had promised to keep it a secret.
Wu Yingyuan frowned and said: "Then how do you get her mother and son out? Wouldn't it be worse if they were taken out and poisoned to death?"
Xiang Shaolong said confidently: "This matter has another twist, but when Zhu Ji was about to say it, Zhao Mu came and interrupted it. Anyway, I can take care of it."
Everyone began to breathe a sigh of relief and regain hope.
Teng Yi listened coldly, his face not changing at all, giving him a heroic attitude of perseverance.
Tao Fang praised: "Shaolong is really resourceful and used Zhao Ya to deceive King Zhao and Zhao Mu. It seems that no matter what we do in the past ten days, they will not interfere."
Wu Shi nodded and said: "If it weren't for Shaolong, we would have been completely defeated this time and not a single scrap would be left." Turning to his son, he said: "Has the pasture over there in Qin been destroyed?"
Everyone was shocked, and then they realized that Wu Yingyuan had gone to Qin territory for deployment.
Wu Yingyuan said: "I chose four places to run the ranch. I sent experienced veterans to handle it two years ago. It is now quite large and can barely accommodate the materials and livestock we moved. Hmph, I really want to see it with my own eyes.
Look at the expression on King Xiaocheng’s face after we left.”
Xiang Shaolong couldn't help but ask: "There are so many animals in the pasture, and there are Zhao soldiers stationed along the way, how can we leave?"
Wu Yingyuan smiled and said: "We will not move even a single blade of grass in this pasture. What we will move are several livestock pastures close to the Qin border. In the past few years, we have used the excuse to deal with the Qin people and continued to expand the pastures on the border. The best
Send all the livestock there."
Tao Fang said: "On the surface, the Zhao people still maintain good relations with our Wu family. The defenders on the border know what is going on here. As long as the Qin people agree, it is not difficult to move all the animals, let alone we only send them away."
The best animals for breeding purposes.”
Wu Zhuo said: "There are many children of the Wu family in the Zhao army at the border who I specially intervened to change their names. It is very convenient to do things."
Xiang Shaolong admired him in his heart. It turned out that in order to save Ying Zheng's mother and son, Wu Yingyuan started doing kung fu a few years ago, so he was so relaxed and calm now.
Teng Yi said calmly: "There won't be any livestock left for the Zhao people?"
Wu Shi said lightly: "Of course."
Xiang Shaolong couldn't bear it, thinking of the horrific scene of cow and horse carcasses all over the pasture, but this was something he had no choice but to do as a last resort.
Changing the subject, he said: "The most important thing now is how many days we can hold the castle. The longer we are, the more confident we will be in escaping."
Teng Yi and Tao Fanggang heard about the secret path, so they understood what he meant.
Because the Zhao people would think that they were trapped in the castle and would not send anyone to chase them, and Zhu Ji and her son could also leave the city through the tunnels, so the longer they defended the city, the farther they fled. Even before the border guards received the news,
Good morning, arrived in Xianyang.
Wu Zhuo said: "This matter is between me and Teng Yi. In the past few days, I will secretly transport soldiers, supplies and equipment to defend the city from the tunnel and hide them. Brother Teng will be responsible for training the tactics of defending the city."
Wu Yingyuan said to Tao Fang: "It is best for Mr. Tao to transfer outsiders to other places and try to send away the maidservants who are irrelevant. The singers should select the best ones and send them out of the city, but they must pretend to be secretive."
Everyone except Teng Yi and Xiang Shaolong laughed.
The former rarely looked happy after the tragic death of his wife and son; Xiang Shaolong remembered Wushi's decision to die with Bao.
Couldn't help but said: "Grandpa——"
Wu Shi interrupted: "This matter can only be washed away with blood, so that the descendants of the Wu family will never forget their hatred against the Zhao people. Anyone who wants to deal with the Wu family will have to pay a heavy price."
After sighing softly, his eyes showed a look of nostalgia, and he said slowly: "Our ancestors were indeed nobles of the Qin State. They were forced to live in the Zhao State due to the struggle. It was with their perseverance and unyielding spirit that they set up pastures in the barren mountains and wild lands and became the world's leader.
The king of livestock husbandry. Now my descendants have finally returned home, and I can die a grand death. At this point in my life, there is nothing more I could ask for."
Wu Zhuo was silent, while Wu Yingyuan and Tao Fang looked sad.
Teng Yi's eyes showed respect, and he said with emotion: "What a good man."
Wu Shi smiled happily, stood up hard and said, "So I'm going to enjoy myself to the fullest these days. If nothing happens, don't bother me."
He laughed and left the room humming a tune as everyone watched.
Teng Yi and Xiang Shaolong walked side by side toward the inner house and asked, "What are you going to do with Qian'er?"
Xiang Shaolong knew that he loved this beautiful princess and was afraid that he would leave her alone, so he promised: "I will keep her with me no matter what."
Teng Yi put aside his worries and turned to look for Wu Zhuo.
In the evening of that day, Wu secretly held a wedding ceremony for Xiang Shaolong and Wu Tingfang, and took Tingfang as his concubine, officially deciding their names.
That night Xiang Shaolong and Jing Jun sneaked into the Proton Mansion again.
Xiang Shaolong was so skillful that he avoided the sentry guards and came to Zhu Ji's Xianggui. The two of them hid on the couch and talked in whispers.
Zhu Ji's beautiful face shared the pillow with his, and her beautiful body squeezed him tightly without any scruples. Since she was lying on her side, her charming breath flowed into his ears rhythmically with her breathing. There was no such temptation.
Men can resist.
Fortunately, Xiang Shaolong's eyes were directed towards the top of the tent, otherwise he would have lost control of himself and done something he shouldn't have done if he had caught her charming look.
In this era of high male dominance, women know how to control men with their talents. Zhu Ji is an example of this kind of Daji-style beauties. Otherwise, King Zhuang Xiang would not forget her, and Zhao Mu
This bisexual and doctor Guo Kai, a smart person, would not be infatuated with her at the same time.
Zhu Ji didn't talk about business, but said first: "You haven't fallen in love with that whore Zhao Ya?"
Xiang Shaolong thought that a woman is a woman, and time is precious. Zhu Ji had the leisure to take care of such nosy matters, so he could only follow her tone and said: "Are you familiar with her?"
Zhu Ji said disdainfully: "Zhao Mu brought her to my place from time to time. Do you think she is acquainted with her?"
Xiang Shaolong remembered that Zhao Ya had hinted at having an affair with the fake Ying Zheng. It seemed that this was such a ridiculous thing done under Zhao Mu's instructions. He felt disgusted and relieved because he no longer had to bear the responsibility for Zhao Ya.
Emotional responsibility.
Zhu Ji suddenly chuckled and said proudly: "Although Zhao Mu is cunning, he is no match for us. You should know how to make good use of this whore."
Xiang Shaolong secretly screamed, and revealed his methods to her. He took a deep breath and said, "It's all thanks to her help that this happened." He couldn't help but ask, "Madam, where is your son?"
Zhu Ji said: "Tell me your plan first and let me see if it is feasible before I tell you."
Xiang Shaolong went through many changes and learned to only speak three words when meeting people. He briefly told her his plan, but he concealed the most important link, the Wu family tunnel, and left the city through the west of the city instead.
Zhu Ji was very satisfied. She kissed his cheek tenderly, stroked his broad chest with her delicate hands, and said coquettishly: "What's stuck in your waist?"
Xiang Shaolong said: "It's a tool that can fly over walls and walls, and a flying needle that can kill people invisible." Zhu Ji's expression changed: "Does Zhao Ya know about your ability?"
Xiang Shaolong thought carefully, shook his head and said, "Although she has seen it before, I have never explained how to use it, and it seems that she still hopes that I can escape alone, so she will not reveal it to Zhao Mu."
Zhu Ji breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "We can't just rely on luck. Can you bring me some strong drugs tomorrow night? If necessary, I will find a way to sneak out by myself."
Xiang Shaolong felt more and more that this woman was not simple, he frowned and said: "Even if we can charm the maid guarding you in the house, we still can't pass the guard. Don't believe Guo Kai, he is just lying to your body.
"
Zhu Ji chuckled and said: "Only a fool would believe him. He is the one I want to charm. This is the only way to escape that I have been thinking about for ten years. I want to charm him because
I think his stature is not far different from mine, all I need to do is put his boots up and tie something into his clothes like you do."
Then he sighed and said: "Well, if we don't find something to do, people will be locked up crazy." After a pause, his voice and tone changed into Guo Kai's soft and thin voice and said: "So
I imitate his tone of voice and mannerisms every day, and I would have run away if I had not known that I would never be able to escape."
Xiang Shaolong was overwhelmed by this and sincerely praised: "You have learned so wonderfully."
The sound of footsteps came from outside the door, and Xiang Shaolong hurriedly hid in a secret compartment.
The maid opened the door and entered the room, opened the curtain and saw Zhu Ji pretending to be sleeping, and then she left peacefully.
Xiang Shaolong got out.
Zhu Ji leaned over and hugged him again and said: "Bu Wei has a man who is good at the art of disguise——"
Xiang Shaolong interrupted: "You must be talking about Xiao Yuetan, I just met him."
Zhu Ji said happily: "Now I really believe in you without reservation. Let me tell you, although I don't know the art of disguise, I have learned some tricks from others because of my interest. Every day when I am bored,
They all try to pretend to be Guo Kai, confident that unless they are familiar with each other, they will never see the flaw."
Xiang Shaolong sighed in his heart, from this we can see how much Zhu Ji longs to leave this prison, and we can also see her perseverance and unyielding fighting spirit in desperate situations.
Zhu Ji said: "You must bring me the drug. People are very strange. No matter whether they do good or bad things, they are difficult to control from the beginning. So sooner or later, Zhao Ya will completely betray you. With Zhao Mu's caution and suspicion,
, we will definitely send more manpower to guard this place."
Xiang Shaolong agreed: "Let me tell you this, I also have a very bad feeling. If Zhao Mu knows that I have the ability to get up and down, he will definitely deal with this." He sat up.
Zhu Ji was surprised: "What are you doing?"
Xiang Shaolong didn't answer him, but moved to the window and looked out. A group of patrol guards happened to pass by. After they left, he gestured to Jing Jun outside. After a while, this kid walked in through the window like a civet cat.
After Xiang Shaolong ordered him to go back to Wu's house to get the medicine, he watched him leave safely before returning to bed.
Zhu Ji looked at him with wide eyes and said, "It turns out that there is such a skilled person helping you. No wonder Zhao Mu is so afraid of you."
Xiang Shaolong said: "Madam, hurry up and tell me about the crown prince."
Zhu Ji seemed calm and said: "Why are you in such a hurry? Hengya has to wait for someone to bring something before you leave. You don't know how hard it is to hold it back, and it's not easy for you to be the one to talk to."
Xiang Shaolong was angry and funny, and said softly: "Can I beg you?"
Zhu Ji was extremely proud, her charm came to her, and she said softly: "Shaolong, will you go to your relatives?"
Xiang Shaolong had no choice but to turn his face away, only to see her charming eyes staring straight at him for a moment.
The two pairs of eyes met for a moment, and Zhu Ji's fragrant lips took the initiative to press on his mouth, while her delicate body gently rubbed and twisted towards him.
Waves of pain and bone-gnawing sensations spread throughout his body. Xiang Shaolong was immediately aroused and found it difficult to control himself.
Zhu Ji moved her sweet lips a little, smiled lightly and said, "I thought you were a weirdo who can't be tempted, but it turns out you are no different from other men."
Xiang Shaolong was so angry that he distracted his energy, suppressed his desire, and said slightly angrily: "Madam"
Zhu Ji stretched out two fingers and put them on his mouth, coaxing him like a child: "Don't be angry, I really want to be intimate with you."
When Xiang Shaolong was unable to hold her back, Zhu Ji said sternly: "In order to avoid being noticed by others, Buwei and Yiren Langjun did not take me away. I had just given birth to a son at that time and was not yet full term. After they left, I
Knowing that the situation was not good and that Zheng'er might be killed by the Zhao people, he was so angry that he sent his servants out all night to look for other babies to replace Zheng'er."
Xiang Shaolong suddenly said: "So this is how the fake Ying Zheng in the house came to be."
Zhu Ji said distressedly: "If you do things in a hurry, there will naturally be mistakes. For a while, I couldn't find a baby of the same age, so I had to spend a lot of money to buy a three-year-old child instead. Fortunately, no one thought that the stranger was a stranger at that time."
I don’t even know if he has any children. That night, after Zhao Mujue, Lu Buwei and the strange man escaped, they came and executed all the servants in a vicious manner. Only me and the fake son were left, and there was no suspicion. "
Only then did Xiang Shaolong suddenly realize that no wonder Ying Zheng's age did not match the historical facts. The real situation was so twists and turns.
The Battle of Changping took place in 260 BC, and I have been here for more than a year. The current year should be 249 BC, with an interval of eleven years.
Assuming that Qin Shihuang was born after the defeat of Changping was reported to Zhao State, ancient information is inconvenient, and it may have been a year. Therefore, Ying Zheng should have been born one year after the Battle of Changping, then he was born in 2 AD
When he ascended the throne in 1946, three years ago, he was exactly thirteen years old, confirming that the history is correct.
I was so stupid that I couldn't guess that Ying Zheng was fake.
Things that I couldn't figure out before are now clear to me.
This makes sense. With Qin Shihuang's talent and strategy, how could he be a coward?
Zhu Ji took out an exquisite jade pendant with a special style and engraved with a phoenix pattern from her clothes. She took it off and stuffed it into Xiang Shaolong's palm. Then she closed his palm and wrapped both hands tightly around his iron fist.
He said softly: "The real Zheng'er was sent to a poor family in Handan who had just lost two sons in the Battle of Changping for foster care, indicating that they would recognize each other through jade pendants in the future. Zheng'er wore the same jade pendant around his neck.
This one is engraved with a phoenix pattern, and that one is engraved with a dragon pattern."
Xiang Shaolong asked: "Does that couple know the origin of the Crown Prince?"
Zhu Ji's eyes showed a look of joy but also worry. She was so nervous that she breathed quickly and gasped: "Of course I won't let them know. I just said that I was the illegitimate son of a rich family. At that time, I didn't expect that I would be put under house arrest immediately. Knowing that
His servant was killed again, so I didn’t have the chance to tell you about it until you came today. God, you must find him for me, otherwise I won’t live either.”
Xiang Shaolong felt the remaining warmth of the jade pendant passing through Zhu Ji's jade body in his hand, and said with confidence: "I dare to guarantee with my head that I will find him."
He is confident, otherwise history would not be like that.
Zhu Ji groaned: "Don't make me happy."
Xiang Shaolong said: "I am a person with supernatural powers, and what I predict will never be wrong."
After Zhu Ji looked at him dubiously for a while, she leaned into his ear and read out the name and address of the person who had adopted her son in her heart for ten years.
Xiang Shaolong remembered it carefully.
There was a soft knock on the window door, and Jing Jun left and came back again. He came back to the tent with a big bag of poison in his hand and smiled. He looked at Zhu Ji with all his eyesight. He was immediately stunned and forgot to speak.
Zhu Ji smiled when she saw it, she was so charming.
Xiang Shaolong scolded: "Xiaojun"
Jing Jun's soul returned to its original state and he said: "This is a powerful intoxicating drug. Just a little bit can make a person lie down for a whole day, and even cold water can't save him. This is enough to enchant more than a hundred people."
Suddenly, the sound of hoofbeats suddenly sounded in the distance, approaching from far away.
Zhu Ji and Xiang Shaolong were shocked at the same time, knowing that Zhu Ji had guessed Zhao Ya correctly.
Xiang Shaolong also knew that Zhao Ya was not only getting deeper and deeper, but was also controlled by Zhao Mu again. Otherwise, Zhao Mu would not have sent people to rearrange his defenses in the middle of the night. It was obviously Zhao Ya who told him about his abilities in bed.
Revealed to Zhao Mu.
After hastily agreeing with Zhu Ji on the time and place to escape, the two quickly left.
As soon as they climbed the high wall, guards came from the fake Yingzheng residence and launched a new defense network.
From this moment on, the strong mother of Qin Shi Huang had to rely on her own strength and wisdom to escape.
