In late May, Han Qian left Xiangzhou by boat with the last group of men.

From Xiangzhou along the Han River, to Jiangxia into the river turning east, all the way to the mighty river.

If you take a newly-built fast sailing ship in Xuzhou, you may only need six or seven days to return to Tianjinling.

Han Qian was not in a hurry, and did not transfer the two newly built fast sailing boats in Xuzhou, and more than 20 people took three small canopy sailing boats and went down the river.

At this time, the reinforcements were still withdrawing from Xiangzhou City to various places, and the waterways were also quite stable, and the interest came, Han Qian would even stay between the lakes and mountains and rivers for two or three days to enjoy the magnificent scenery of the mountains and rivers of heaven and earth.

All the way forward slowly, to the tenth day to the Han River estuary located in Jiangxia County, the boat docked at the eastern foot of Guishan Mountain, Han Qian climbed the mountain, to see the scenery of the confluence of the river and Han.

Turtle Mountain stretches only three or four hundred steps from north to south, and is only ten zhang high, but Guishan is east of Han River and south of the Yangtze River, and it can be rushed.

However, at this time, Hanshuikou and the Hankou town in later generations were completely different concepts.

At that time, from Jingzhou to Hanshuikou, no embankments were built along the Yangtze River, not even simple mud embankments.

From Xiangzhou to the mouth of the Han River, there is no real embankment along the Han River to restrain the river.

To the place where the Jiang and Han meets, the lake is vast, and you can vaguely see the traces of the big lake in the north of Yunmengze in ancient times.

In autumn and winter, the water level of Jianghan drops, and Guishan is connected with the land, and at this time it is already summer, and Guishan is trapped in a lake.

Han Qian climbed the Turtle Mountain, looked at the front and back, left and right, hundreds of miles were full of water, and the Jianghan Plain, which was the land of fish and rice in later generations, had not yet been completely formed at this time.

Turtle Mountain looks very small, but in addition to the mighty water of the Jianghan intersection, there is also Yuwang Temple, the stone cliff on the south side of the river has the stone carvings left by the ancients of the past dynasties, and there is a mound left by Lu Su, a famous minister of the Three Kingdoms.

Han Qian stood on the alum stone in front of the south cliff, looking up at the inscription on the stone cliff that had been mottled by time, and a sailboat slowly sailed from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

Han Qian kept his feet on the rock, took the mirror to look over, but saw that it was Wen Ruilin, the advisor of the Tanzhou Jiedu envoy Ma Xun, standing at the bow of the boat, waving his hand to look at this side.

Han Qian screamed in his heart, and said to Tian Cheng and Zhao Wuji: "You stay here, Xi Ying and I will see if there are any historical sites in Beishan to explore, don't pay attention to that Wen Ruilin." ”

I don't know if Wen Ruilin has a problem with his eyesight, Han Qian and Xi Ying just got on the mud path, climbed the low cliff and got into the woods, and saw Wen Ruilin standing at the bow of the boat, shouting at Tian Cheng and the others who were still on the rockhead: "Dare to ask if it is Lord Han Qian Han in front?" ”

"We are my lord's subordinates, passing through this time, landing a Range Rover, my family is not with us-I don't know what Mr. Wen is looking for my family's lord?" Tian Cheng replied.

"Do you recognize Wen?" Wen Ruilin's eyes are really bad, and the scenery more than ten steps away seems to be covered with a layer of fog.

"Tian Cheng once met Mr. Wen with my family." Tian Cheng said.

"Oh, it turned out to be Lord Tian's business, disrespectful and disrespectful," Wen Ruilin said, "Dare to ask where Lord Han is at this time, my family members kindly invite Lord Han to Yueyang as a guest for a few days." ”

"My family's lord Shenlong doesn't see his subordinates, and we don't know much about our subordinates, or we won't know the specific whereabouts of my family until we return to Jinling." Tian Cheng replied.

"Why don't you want to go to Yueyang as a guest?" Xi Ying watched Han Qian drill into the depths of the mountains and forests one by one, and asked suspiciously.

There is a trail between the mountains and forests, and while Han Qian drilled into the depths of the mountains and forests, he said to Xi Ying:

"The western line of Great Chu, the erosion of Jingxiang and the instability of Tanzhou are the two major near-worries of Great Chu. In comparison, Xu Mingzhen was under great military pressure in Shouzhou, even if he had ambitions, he would only achieve it by supporting the crown prince to ascend the throne for the time being, and there would be no changes before the death of Emperor Tianyou. Tanzhou has been low-key enough these days, but I really want to think that I am like a resentful woman at this time, obviously I still haven't seen the situation clearly! ”

Turtle Mountain is very small, and the two teas will pass through the mountain forest and reach the northwest foot of Turtle Mountain.

Only then did Han Qian see a rather old sailing ship moored behind Guishan, four or five sailors seemed to be sitting lazily on the deck blowing the river breeze, but their expressions were loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and there were two dark-skinned fishermen standing directly in the water in the shallow lake in the southwest to catch fish.

Thirty or forty steps down from the mountain forest, there was an abandoned tea pavilion hidden behind a bamboo forest, and two people wearing cyan robes, standing with their backs to Han Qian, looking at the lake in the northwest of Turtle Mountain.

Han Qian and Xi Ying glanced at each other, and wanted to retreat quietly.

"Since we are all fortunate to have met, why didn't Lord Han leave without saying hello?" A man in a green shirt didn't turn his head, still looking at the water swinger on the northwest shore of Turtle Mountain, but he spoke out to keep Han Qian.

"His Royal Highness King Yongwang traveled to Chu Realm in private clothes, and I waited for the ministers of Great Chu to know, so they naturally wanted to pass through Yuzhou County, but this would damage His Royal Highness Yongwang's Yaxing, and if he didn't report it, he would be suspected of collaborating with the enemy. Han Qian was in a dilemma, thinking about it, he could only pretend not to see it. Han Qian stood at the edge of the forest and said.

"Oh, there is such a big flaw that you can see through my tracks at a glance?" The green-shirted man turned around, who is Zhu Yu, not King Liang Yong?

Xi Ying's mouth opened for a long time, and he was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.

After Zhu Yuding, the king of Liang Yong, made a sound to attack the east and west, he almost annexed the Great Chu Jingxiang, and even if he was finally defeated and withdrawn, he would take away 100,000 elites.

Who would have imagined that Zhu Yu, the king of Liang Yong, would be touring in the mountains and rivers in Dachu at this time?

And another green-shirted guest has a faint scar running through his thin yellow face, he is not Han Yuanqi who led 50,000 Liang troops to attack Xichuan, who is it?

Thinking of so many elite Liang army throwing corpses outside Xichuan City, Xi Ying's eyes were fierce, he turned his hand to reveal a pair of short thorns, and moved to stand in front of Han Qian.

Han Qian stretched out his hand and pressed Xi Ying, asking her to take back her blade, and stood there waving his hand at King Yong, but he didn't answer his question.

"I've been here for two days, just to see Lord Han, can Lord Han not rush to report the news, so that Zhu Yu won't run away in embarrassment immediately?" Zhu Yu asked, seeing Han Qian's hesitant face, he waved his hand again to order the sailboat moored at the foot of the mountain to stretch farther into the lake to the north.

Xi Ying was stunned again, Liang Yongwang Zhu Yu appeared here, not by chance, but to wait for Han Qian to pass by here, and it was expected that Han Qian would go to Turtle Mountain for a visit?

Think about it too, otherwise where would there be so many coincidences?

However, looking at the attitudes of Zhu Yu and Han Yuanqi, King of Liang Yong, they are not waiting to ambush them here.

Thinking about Zhu Yu's identity, if he sneaked into Jingxiang's hinterland specifically to assassinate Han Qian, this joke would be too big.

Xi Ying twisted his head to look at Han Qian behind him, but saw Han Qian walking towards the remnant pavilion with a wry smile on his face.

The tea pavilion is dilapidated, but the tea pavilion has been cleaned up, and although a stone table and four stone benches are broken, they are wiped clean.

The stone table is set with a chessboard, and there are dozens of remnants.

"Lord Han can play a game against this king?" Zhu Yuyan pointed to the chessboard and asked.

"Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and writing, Han does not learn and has no skills." Han Qian said.

"Lord Han has learned the world through the world, and it doesn't matter if you don't learn these small techniques," Zhu Yu laughed, sat down and put the remnants into the chess box, stared at Han Qian's eyes, and said, "Zhu Yu thinks very highly of himself, sits in Luoyang, and has been fighting with the enemy generals for ten years, without tasting a defeat, and Mou Jingxiang also has many years, but he doesn't want to be defeated by Lord Han, so he came over on purpose to meet Lord Han." ”

Han Qian just smiled faintly.

Zhu Yu boldly entered Jingchu to personally inspect the situation of the mountains and rivers, which was indeed very unexpected to him, but he would not fully believe Zhu Yu's words, thinking that it was most likely that the secret agents of the Liang State learned that he had left Xiangzhou and returned to Jinling.

Of course, Zhu Yu said this to elevate him, and Han Qian would not break it, so he sat down and said with a smile: "Han someone looks obscene and ugly, and there is nothing extraordinary, so he must have disappointed His Highness." ”

"Except for the fact that the forces of Pu'er do not measure their strength to call the king and the emperor, the world has been divided by the four kingdoms of Liang, Shu, Chu and Jin, according to Lord Han, who will the world eventually belong to?" Zhu Yu didn't know when Han Qian's subordinates would come over, and he didn't make any detours, so he went straight to the point and asked.

"Han is really a person who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, and this question of His Royal Highness really tests Han." Han Qian smiled at Zhu Yu's question but did not answer.

"Although the Liang State lives in the land of the four wars, and the new Guanzhong is also dilapidated, but Zhu Yu dares to say that the greatness of the world will eventually belong to Liang, can Lord Han believe it?" Zhu Yu asked.

Faced with Zhu Yu's question, Han Qian really didn't know how to answer.

In terms of the current situation, the situation of the Liang State is much stronger than that of the Chu State.

In addition, Zhu Jue, the crown prince of Liang, died of illness four years ago, although Liang did not appoint a new prince, and Zhu Yu, the king of Yong, was not a descendant, but whether it was fame, actual power or ability, the other sons of Emperor Liang were not the opponents of Zhu Yu, the king of Yong.

Even if Liang Jun failed to succeed in Jingxiang this time, it did not reduce Zhu Yu's prestige in the slightest.

Emperor Zhu Yun of Liang and Emperor Yang Mi of Heaven have been fighting for half their lives, and they have not been able to distinguish the winner or loser, it cannot be that Liang annexes Chu, or Chu annexes Liang, at least during Zhu Yun and Yang Mi's lifetime, it is unlikely to be seen, and can only be pinned on the second-generation monarchs of Liang and Chu.

The comprehensive strength of Great Chu was originally weaker than that of Liang State, not to mention the crown prince Yang Yuanwu, even if it was Yang Yuanyan, the king of Xin, and Yang Yuanpu, the king of Linjiang County, they were far inferior to Zhu Yu, the king of Liang Yong; The second generation of several emperors of the Jin Kingdom can't see anyone better than Zhu Yu, the king of Liang Yong.

If King Liang Yong is not unexpected, he can smoothly take over the Liang State, and even if the Liang Emperor Zhu Yun is old and does not die, Zhu Yu, as the crown prince, can control the military and political affairs of the Liang State, and the world may finally be classified as the Great Liang.

However, even if Han Qian is no longer familiar with the historical trend of the Liang State in the future, he also knows that when the Chu State was destroyed by the Anning Palace and the King of Xin, Yang Yuanpu, the national strength can be said to be extremely weak for a long time, and the internal conquest of each other is endless, but the Liang army did not seize the opportunity to annex Great Chu, which shows that the Liang State is also experiencing unimaginable turmoil three years later, and even the duration is not slightly shorter than that of Chu.

Judging from Zhu Yu's strong ability at this time, Han Qian suspected that there would be a great chaos in Liang State three years later, most of which was due to Zhu Yu's accidental death, and he thought that Zhu Yu would personally go deep into the enemy territory to inspect the situation in the mountains and rivers at every turn, and if he didn't stare at the changes in the situation in Bianzhou, it would be normal for some accidents to occur in the next three years.

If the historical trajectory does not change, the chaotic era of the Central Plains being broken, torn apart, and conquered and killed will almost last for more than half a century before it ends, but in the next three or four hundred years, the entire northern part of the Central Plains will continue to be ravaged by foreign races in the north, until the entire Central Plains falls into the hands of foreign races again.

Although Zhu Yu wanted to talk deeply, Han Qian didn't want to give him this opportunity.

Han Qian thought to himself that he had finally figured out the situation in Jinling, and had preliminarily completed the layout, what was going on in Jinling, he could still react in time, no matter how big the chips Zhu Yu gave him today, he didn't want to step out of another unknown road that didn't know whether the front end was life or death.

"It's not early, Han Qian is still in a hurry to return to Jinling, so he will no longer affect His Highness's mood of watching the Range Rover scenery here." Han Qian sat down for a cup of tea, then hurriedly stood up and said goodbye.

"Although the country of Chu is big, it can't tolerate the talent of Lord Han, if Lord Han helps Zhu Yu unify the world, Zhu Yu will treat him as a friend for the rest of his life!" Zhu Yu stood up and said excitedly.

"Thank you Your Highness for your love, but Han is really unlearned," Han Qian ran away into the mountains and forests, and met Tian Cheng and Zhao Wuji, who were looking for them, and urged them to turn around and go back, but they couldn't help but turn their heads when they came, and said to Zhu Yu in a chattering voice, "There is a difference, Your Highness may have a catastrophe within three years, I hope to be careful!" ”
