Qin Cheng took his personal army and Dongfang Shuo in Anmen, and was about to leave Chang'an for Huiji County when Gongsun Ce waved his horse whip and chased him from behind. is still that arrogant posture, fresh clothes and angry horses, rushing the street pedestrians to both sides like a flood, with extraordinary momentum, only to provoke passers-by to shout and curse behind his back.

"Brother Qin, Dongfang Shilang, I'm sorry, I'm late." Gongsun Ce didn't get off his horse either, and bowed his hand to Qin Cheng and Dongfang Shuo in front of fifty or sixty people on his horse.

"Brother Gongsun is here to see him off? It's not too late, it's not too late. Qin Cheng returned the salute with a smile.

"Brother Gongsun's faction is still so big, you, the people who have come to the street, are paying attention to us and sending them off." Dongfang Shuo joked with a smile.

Gongsun Ce glanced back and saw that many passers-by were looking over and pointing at him, so he suddenly got up a little embarrassed, turned around his head, and suddenly said to Qin Cheng and Gongsun Ce: "I didn't come to see you off." ”

"Oh, why is that?"

"I'm here to go to Minyue with you!" Gongsun Ce's words were astonishing.

Seeing Qin Cheng and Dongfang Shuo's astonishment, Gongsun Ce smiled and said, "It's a certain grandfather's idea, and His Majesty has agreed to it yesterday." ”

After that, he handed the order to Qin Cheng.

Qin Cheng glanced at it, and then smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll just go on the road." "Gongsun Ce can go along, Qin Cheng is naturally happy.

"Okay, Rong will open the way for you!" Gongsun Ce raised his horsewhip, clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and suddenly rushed out like a chicken flying and a dog.

Qin Cheng and Dongfang Shuo glanced at each other, and they both saw a black line on each other.

"It's a long way to go to Minyue Mountain, Brother Dongfang, don't delay you and me, let's go on the road!" Qin Cheng said, and turned back to Qin Qingzhi: "Qingzhi, order the team to open!" ”

"No!" As soon as Qin Qing's hand was raised, the fifty soldiers and a line of officials in Qin Cheng behind him slowly started.

"Brother Qin, wait a minute, Brother Qin!" Just as he was about to set off, there was a shout from the crowded crowd on the street, and a middle-aged man in plain clothes and white shirt squeezed through the crowd with great difficulty and hurriedly, shouting and waving vigorously to Qin Cheng.

The person who came was none other than Dou Fei.

"Brother Dou!" Qin Cheng got off the horse, arched his hand to Dou Fei, who was out of breath and sweating profusely, and said with a smile: "You have traveled through the entire Chang'an City to see you off here, Qin is flattered!" ”

Qincheng's trip was from Anmen (due south), and Dou Fei's residence was outside the northern city, so Qin Cheng said.

Dou Fei supported his knees with one hand, panting desperately, waved his hand, and paused for a long time before he slurred his words: "Fei Ye, a certain Fei is here to send Brother Qin on the expedition." ”

"Oh?" Qin Cheng smiled and glanced at Dongfang Shuo and Qin Qing left and right, "Could it be that you also want to go with me?" ”

After that, Dongfang Shuo and Qin Qingzhidu laughed tacitly.

Dou Fei swallowed his saliva with difficulty, finally stood up straight, bowed to Qin Cheng, and said, "I came here today just to hope to walk with Brother Qin!" ”

"Brother Dou, you're just joking, aren't you? How can anyone go out without even a package? Dongfang Shuo saw that Dou Fei ran over empty-handed, naturally he didn't believe him, Gongsun Ce can also understand, in addition to being obsessed with martial arts, he is not a very reliable person, and Dou Fei's generation of legalists naturally can't be the same.

Dou Fei's face was slightly embarrassed, and then he said seriously and freely: "Dou is alone, he only has a mouth and a pair of legs when he goes out, and he has nothing to bring." ”

Qin Cheng knew that Dou Fei was a shy family member, and he didn't even have a change of clothes, and Qin Cheng also intended to help Dou Fei before, but Dou Fei didn't accept it far away, even Qin Cheng's hard stuffing of the soft also bought him a book, and he didn't even add a set of clothes to himself. Moreover, seeing Dou Fei running like this, it seems that he has just made up his mind for a short time, and maybe he hurried over before he had time to pack anything.

Dongfang Shuo saw that Dou Fei was serious, but it was not easy to speak. Qin Cheng asked, "Brother Dou is also going to Wucheng?" ”

"I heard that there is a Dharma family in Wanling, and I have always wanted to visit but couldn't get it, but now I know that Brother Qin is traveling to Minyue, and he will definitely pass through Wanling, so I have the cheekiness to go with Brother Qin." Dou Fei said.

Wanling is the county seat of Danyang County, and Danyang County is adjacent to Huiji County, which is the only way for Qincheng to travel.

"If Brother Dou had said it earlier, why did he come all the way from the north of the city today?" Qin Cheng laughed and said, "Then go along!" Qingzhi, give Brother Dou a horse. ”

"No!"

"Thank you, Brother Qin!"

As a result, the hussar general Qin Cheng, the alien Dongfang Shuo, the martial idiot Gongsun Ce, the contemporary Legalist master Dou Fei, and the elite cavalry Qincheng personal army began to march towards Huiji County.

......

The speed of these people in Qincheng to Huiji County naturally can't be slow, but it will not make it a marching speed, and Liu Che has an arrangement for the itinerary, that is, when this trip passes through Huainan Kingdom, there is no need to go to Xingping to visit Liu An, the king of Huainan Kingdom, but when he comes back, he will go to see him. Qin Cheng only knew so much, as for what other tasks Liu Che had arranged for Dongfang Shuo alone, it was unknown.

A group of people marched along the official road to Xingping, when they were in a hurry, naturally no one spoke, the horses were whistling, and the warm and cold wind blew on everyone's faces like a knife, and the wind would roll into people's mouths as soon as they spoke, making people have no interest in opening their mouths. It is Gongsun Ce's duty.

As for why Gongsun Ce went to Huiji County with him, Qin Cheng could vaguely guess some reasons. I don't know why Gongsun Ce didn't enter the office, but Gongsun Ce can't never enter the office, since he wants to go that way, it's not a bad thing to accumulate some capital early. In addition, Qin Cheng vaguely felt that he was afraid that at the beginning of this event, Gongsun Ce was going to stand in the court.

When the horse was resting, Qin Qingzhi arranged for people to take turns on guard, which was a habit in the army.

For Qin Qingzhi, Qin Cheng originally wanted to "release" him out to be a general who led the troops, which is also the practice of the general pro-soldier team. If you keep letting people stay by your side, although there are a lot of benefits, but you can't do much to do anything, and if you continue like this, you can't help but see no hope, you can't see the days of the future, and no one will want to be a pro-soldier for the rest of your life. But when Qin Cheng mentioned this matter to Qin Qingzhi, Qin Qingzhi shook his head, only saying that he was not qualified enough to go out to lead the troops, and he wanted to learn more from Qin Cheng.

Qin Qingzhi said this, Qin Cheng naturally couldn't be forced.

"One day to the border of Huainan Kingdom, do you think Liu An will send someone to comfort us?" Gongsun Ce leaned against a tree trunk and said as he threw a broken coarse cake into his mouth.

The discord between Liu Che and Liu An is well known to the government and the opposition, so it seems very natural for Gongsun Ce to call Liu An by his name, without the slightest pressure.

"It's good if he doesn't send someone to condole, but if he really sends someone to condole, he will definitely not have any good intentions." Dongfang Shuo, who was sitting on the ground, shook his robe and said lightly.

"Hmph, uneasy and kind, he dares? We are the envoys sent by His Majesty, and what does he dare to do to us? Gongsun Ce snorted coldly and said disdainfully.

Dongfang Shuo smiled indifferently and said, "He doesn't dare to do anything to us, not only that, but he will be very polite to us." But that doesn't mean he won't be disgusted with us. ”

"Brother Dongfang, can you talk without detouring? What is it that is polite to us and disgusting to us? Gongsun Ce asked.

Dongfang Shuo pretended to smile profoundly, but he stopped talking.

"Why didn't you say that? You are so boring, isn't this an appetite for me? Gongsun Ce said dissatisfied.

"Brother Dou, do you know what Brother Dongfang means?" Qin Cheng threw a look at Dou Fei, who was almost settled next to him, this person seemed to be very low-key along the way, he said what he should say, and basically didn't open his mouth when he didn't need to speak. Of course, this is not the scene that Qin Cheng wants to see, it is not easy for his people to get together, and it is really a sin not to take the opportunity to get closer.

Dou Fei listened to Qin Cheng's words without pausing, but said extremely seriously and seriously: "The people of Huainan Kingdom, no matter how attentive they are to us, you and I will be disgusted when they see it. ”

After a pause, as if he didn't understand enough to say it, Dou Fei added: "This is like a roundworm, no matter what posture it takes, whether it appears in the toilet or in the lobby, it will make people feel disgusting, or even more disgusting." It's not that there's anything wrong with his posture, it's that he's so disgusting. ”

"......" Everyone was stunned when they heard this, no one could have expected that Dou Fei would be able to make such a wonderful analogy, with a moment of silence in the scene, and then a tidal wave of laughter.

"Brother Dou, look at how you are a very serious person, how can you talk like this....... Disgusting? Gongsun Ce smiled the most, and he looked at Dou Fei's expression as if he had discovered a new continent.

"Brother Dou, such a wonderful word, it is impossible for a wonderful person to say it!" Dongfang Shuo also smiled very happily.

Who knew that Dou Fei said with a straight face and very seriously: "A certain remark is reasonable, how can it be disgusting?" ”

"......" The crowd laughed even more heartily.

Only Qin Cheng was present who barely knew Dou Fei, so when everyone was amused by Dou Fei, his heart was not so cheerful, because only he knew that for a person like Dou Fei who was full of learning and had the world in mind, it was a painful thing to not meet Huai Cai and even to be pressed into a human shape for life, it was definitely not only physical torture, but also mental pain and questioning of his own talents, which was even more painful.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Dou Fei finally made up his mind to go south with him. Therefore, this trip to the south is not just to visit the Legalist master who may or may not have Wanling.

Taking advantage of this trip to the south to contact himself to see if there is a future for him on this line, I am afraid that this is Dou Fei's true intention. Qin Cheng had thought about it more than once.

Because of this, although Dou Fei seems to be low-key along the way, he actually hopes to mingle with everyone all the time, because these people are all close ministers of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and getting along with each other will definitely be of great benefit to his possible entry into the government in the future.

In this way, Dou Fei has the exaggerated "disgusting" words of Fang Cai.

At this time, did Dou Fei feel in his heart that his behavior on this trip was as disgusting as that roundworm? Qin Cheng does not know.

Looking at Dou Fei at this time, Qin Cheng suddenly thought that Wang Bo in later generations had sighed: Wow! Bad luck and bad fate; Feng Tang is easy to be old, and Li Guang is difficult to seal. ”

Life is too short, and who can tolerate a lifetime of inaction? Especially those who are really talented and learned.

The sorrow and torture of countless people with lofty ideals throughout the ages have reached the mouths of ordinary people, but the words "Huai Cai does not meet"!

If Dou Fei didn't want to live such a tragic life, it would be risky to enter the office, and as a legalist, the risk was even greater, so he had to give it a go.
