Chapter 103: The Eastern Capital of Luoyi

Chen Zheng, who already felt that the general situation was gone, suddenly heard a miserable scream, and when he opened his eyes, he saw an arrow passing through Zhao Hao's chest, and the bronze arrow was dripping with bright red blood.

Zhao Hao, who was in severe pain, threw away the sword in his hand and staggered around, only to see Meng Hao, who was riding on a horse, holding a bow in one hand and twisting his beard in the other, smiling calmly.

"You..., you...?" The corners of Zhao Hao's mouth were bleeding, and he raised his hand to point at Meng Fu with the little strength he had left.

Meng Wei sneered: "Lord Zhao, don't get me wrong, this is what Prime Minister Fan meant. Do you think you still have any value to the Qin State now? With or without you, the Zhao State was destroyed by the Qin State, and besides, the siege ladders you made for Prime Minister Fan have also been completed, and it is just a burden to keep you. ”

Zhao Hao trembled and pointed at Meng Fu, then turned around and pointed at Chen Zheng, and suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, the laughter was particularly poignant.

A few crows croaked a few times and circled over a tree not far away, adding a bit of solemnity to the valley.

A mouthful of blood spurted out of Zhao Hao's chest, and Lord Zhao, who had just ended his life, was about to come to the end of his life in full view of everyone at this time. Perhaps, the pain in his body is no longer perceptual for him, and the feeling of being abandoned by the whole world is another realization of pain.

Chen Zheng looked at Zhao Hao in front of him, a trace of pity rose in his heart, and he was just about to step forward to support him, but Zhao Hao actually reached out and broke an arrow exposed outside his chest, and pounced on Chen Zheng with the tip of the arrow.

At this time, Li Mu had already come to Chen Zheng's side, only to see him grab Zhao Hao's arm, and immediately flipped Zhao Hao to the ground, and a roll of bamboo slips fell out of Zhao Hao's sleeve.

Zhao Hao, who was lying on the ground, spurted out another mouthful of blood, and suddenly there was no sound.

Meng Fu turned his head to the cavalry behind him and ordered, "Go!" Throw this Lord Zhao down the deep valley and feed it to the wolves. ”

Just as Meng Fu issued the order, Chen Zheng squatted on the ground and called out to Zhao Hao, and with the help of Li Mu's cover, the bamboo slip disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Three Qin cavalrymen walked over, two of them lifted Zhao Hao, and the other picked up the bronze sword on the ground, and Zhao Hao was thrown into the valley beside the road with the sword.

Without waiting for Chen Zheng and Li Mu to come back to their senses, Meng Fu turned his horse's head and said sharply to the cavalry: "I will wait for Prime Minister Fan to arrest Zhao Hao who fled to Zhao today. As for these people, they have already gone out of the Kanto region with the street sign of King Qin, and when they go back, if anyone dares to say a word, the old man will speak with the sword in his hand! I see? ”

A cavalryman said: "We are all people carried out by General Meng, how can we not know this rule!" ”

Meng Fu nodded and said, "It's good to know!" ”

The cavalrymen turned their heads on both sides, and when they had passed through on horseback, they followed with whips.

Looking at the team of Meng Fu blowing away in the dust, Chen Zheng and Li Mu stood on the mountain road, as if in a dream.

Chen Zheng looked at the snowman on the ground and the blood stains left by Zhao Hao, and touched the bamboo slip hidden in his sleeve, and then he was sure that he was still alive in reality.

But since Meng Wei was sent by Fan Sui, why did he let himself and Li Mu go?

Chen Zheng, who returned to the carriage, pondered and meditated, but he still had no clue.

When unfolding the bamboo slips that fell from Zhao Hao's body, the lines of names written in seal characters came into view, and Chen Zheng remembered what Fan Sui had said in front of the cave outside the north gate of Xianyang City.

From this point of view, Fan Sui didn't know that Lord Zhao had put in such a lot of effort in order to get promoted and make a fortune in the Qin State. Or, Zhao Hao wants to save a hand for Prime Minister Fan? If this is the case, Zhao Hao died too unjustly.

When the convoy came to Hangu Pass, Meng Wu had already prepared to greet him.

Chen Zheng thought to himself, this father and son from Shandong are really amazing, one loves to ignore and rejects people thousands of miles away, and the other is very happy to see each other and can't bear to resist, could it be that the two of them have discussed it and made themselves happy? !

Meng Wu brought Chen Zheng and Li Mu to his home, which was naturally a hospitable hospitality.

"Brother Lu, how did you gain from this trip to Xianyang?" Meng Wu looked at Chen Zheng with a mysterious smile on his face.

Chen Zheng smiled and said: "It's not going well, Prime Minister Fan Cheng looked at Xinlingjun's face, and returned the things that Wang Ji had stolen to me, and the mother of the alien son also went to visit him." ”

Meng Wu looked at Li Mu again and said, "Brother Li and Han Gongzi went to Xianyang with the messenger of King Qin, why don't you see Han Gongzi together?" ”

Chen Zheng grabbed the conversation and said, "Oh~, Mr. Han Gongzi and Mr. Xunzi will come to Hangu Pass later." ”

"Brother Lu, let's stay in Hangu Pass, when Han Gongzi arrives here, it's not too late for you to go to Handan!"

Chen Zheng thought to himself, forget it, as long as he is still standing on the territory of the Qin State, his heart will be full of ups and downs, he can't eat well, he can't sleep well, it's still important to hurry.

"My brother's heart is understood, but this trip to Xianyang has been delayed for a long time, and my brother is also like an arrow!"

"Since Brother Lu insists on returning to Handan, it is inconvenient for the younger brother to keep his brother. However, on my brother's way to Handan, I'm afraid there will be some twists and turns! ”

Meng Wu's words reminded Chen Zheng at once, yes, there is a small BOOS Wang Ji in Hedong County, and there is a big BOOS Bai Qi in Shangdang, no matter how much he jumps on this super Marie, he doesn't want to reach Handan City with a small flag smoothly.

Li Mu suddenly said: "What's so difficult about this! Brother Lu, why don't we go east to Luoyi and then meet Han Gongzi in Xinzheng? ”

Meng Wu high-fived, a moment of effort to bring a map, Chen Zheng looked, Wang Ji and Bai Qi's turrets are in the northeast of Hangu Pass, out of Hangu Pass eastward, through Luoyi can reach the capital of South Korea Xinzheng, and then all the way to the north is Handan.

When the interruption continues, it is chaotic.

"That's it!" Chen Zheng thought of the aliens and Zhao Ji in Handan City, how could he dare to regenerate branches.

Chen Zheng arched his hand towards Meng Wu and said: "Brother Meng, when Han Gongzi and Mr. Xunzi pass by here, please tell me that Li Mu and I are waiting for them in Xinzheng, South Korea." ”

Meng Wu hurriedly returned the salute and said: "Brother Lu, don't worry, my father has instructed me, and I will escort my brother on a ride." ”

Chen Zheng and Li Mu were both stunned, what is the situation?

Meng Wu saw that there was no one left and right, and said in a low voice: "Brother Lu doesn't know, my brother's father has sent someone to inform me of the situation in Xianyang City, and my younger brother is also sweating for my brother in Hangu Pass!" Fortunately, my brother is in danger, it is really auspicious people who have their own natural appearance, and if they don't die, they will have a blessing! ”

Chen Zheng was also dizzy, what kind of routine is this Mengfu?

Meng Wu smiled and said, "Big brother, don't be strange. It's just that there are many eyes and ears in Xianyang City, a place of right and wrong, and if you are not careful, you will be doomed, and that Fan Cheng is even more deaf and clear-sighted, and the city is full of his eyeliner, and his father is in it, so he has to be cautious. If the eldest brother really encounters danger in Xianyang City, even if his father is involved, he is duty-bound! ”

After Meng Wu's explanation, Chen Zheng's heart was completely dissipated, it turned out that when Meng Fu was depressed in Qi State, he had a friendship with the old man Lu, and it was under the persuasion and funding of the old man Lu that Meng Fu dragged his family all the way west, and then found a stage to realize the value of life. Meng Wu only heard Meng Wei mention the name Lü Buwei, and when Chen Zheng passed through Hangu Pass, although he was Zhang Guan Li Dai and crookedly beaten, he was also a person with a temperament of knowing Grace and Tubao.

If a person is grateful and does something for others and always thinks about how to make up for it, then the relationship between this person and others can only be the interest relationship of commodity exchange. And a person always has a heart to help the weak and help the poor, then this person has achieved himself while achieving others, even if after a few years, he has forgotten all the people and things he has helped, and the people who have been helped will always be grateful, and pass on this spirit from generation to generation, sowing the warmth of the world into the hearts of more people.

Chen Zheng was secretly sighing, and suddenly heard a baby's cry, and Meng Wu happily followed the cry.

After a while, Meng Wu appeared in front of Chen Zheng and Li Mu with Meng Tian in his arms, and said proudly: "Let my godfather take a look at my little Tiantian, is it more and more like a godfather the longer he grows?!" ”

Chen Zhengyi waved his hand: "Don't make trouble!" Stretching out his hand, he hugged Meng Tian in his arms.

Meng Tian, who was still grinning and crying just now, instantly quieted down in Chen Zheng's arms, staring at the person with a strange hairstyle in front of him with a pair of big eyes, and actually squinted and laughed.

Chen Zheng was still holding a baby for the first time in his life, only to see him gently shaking Meng Tian, and said casually: "Brother Meng, what kind of milk powder did you give this child?" ”

Meng Wu's eyes widened: "Brother Lu, what is milk powder?" ”

Chen Zheng reacted suddenly: "Okay, your child is safe. ”

"Oops!" Chen Zheng suddenly felt the heat on his arm, and when he looked closely, half of his sleeve was wet by Xiao Tiantian.

Meng Wu hurriedly took Meng Tian over, and called his mother-in-law while walking out.

……

Meng Wu rode a horse and personally sent Chen Zheng and his entourage out of the east gate of Hangu Pass, and it was not until it was close to the boundary of Luoyi that he said goodbye and returned with a horse.

Chen Zheng raised his eyes in the carriage, as if he heard the bursts of laughter on the gate of the capital of the old capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and seemed to hear the lamentations of King Qin's division under the pickaxe capital.

Back then, in order to win a smile from the beauties, King Zhou You actually regarded the beacon fire as a child's play, and finally attracted the dog Rong to loot and destroy the pickaxe capital, the suzerain of the world and the red face died in the war, and even the youngest son Bofu who had just been established as the prince regretted that he was born in the emperor's family.

After this catastrophe, the abolished prince Yijiu was proclaimed as the Son of Heaven, the king of Zhou Ping saw the constant harassment of the dog Rong on the pickaxe capital, coupled with the decadent scene brought about by natural disasters such as earthquakes and famines, regardless of the opposition of the Duke of Zhou, the Zhou royal family moved from the dangerous and defensible pickaxe capital to Luoyi, which is located in the middle of the world, since then, the history of China has entered the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and the Zhou royal family is no longer able to curb the ambition of the princes to peep into the world and compete for the title, and it has gone into decline in a corner of the partial peace.

The carriage slowly drove into the west gate of Luoyi City, and looked out of the car, but the streets of the capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty were also bustling with people, the chatting of passers-by, the shouts of vendors, and the shouts of shopkeepers came and went, and they were endless, as if they were peaceful.

Chen Zheng suddenly remembered that after Dayu ruled the water, the Jiuding cast with the gold of Kyushu was not stored in the temple of the Luoyi Zhou royal family, which was a symbol of the royal power of the world, and the treasure of the town and country of the Xia Shang Dynasty, even at the end of the Warring States Period, it was also a national weapon that had been inherited for more than 2,000 years. It's a pity that the Jiuding failed to pass on to future generations and mysteriously disappeared in the vast smoke of history.

Since he passed through here, how could he pass by Jiuding?! This is really past this village, not this shop.

Chen Zheng and his entourage found a post house in Luoyi City to live in, and after everything was settled, they inquired about the location of the Taimiao.

When the innkeeper heard this, your son was idle and asked what the Taimiao was doing? It was a place where only people from the Zhou royal family could enter and exit, and the ordinary people didn't want to get close at all.

When the word "Jiuding" came out of Chen Zheng's mouth, the shopkeeper of the post house hurriedly stepped forward to cover Chen Zheng's mouth, and then covered his mouth, anyway, he covered his mouth when he saw it, and then used his other hand to compare the action of cutting off his head next to his neck, and said in a low voice: "When Zhou Tianzi sent Wang Sun Man to visit King Chuzhuang, King Chuzhuang just asked about the size of Jiuding, and the Son of Heaven regarded it as having the intention of seizing the world. Now although Zhou Tianzi lives in the palace of Luoyi, there is a Western Zhou Duke and an Eastern Zhou Duke under the Son of Heaven, one of them occupies Luoyi and the other occupies Gongyi. ”

Although the shopkeeper of the post house persuaded him with good words, Chen Zheng was unwilling to face this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. In Chen Zheng's imagination, if he took advantage of a thunderstorm to fly a kite on the Taimiao Square of the Zhou royal family, and then crossed back with Jiuding, wouldn't it be a great achievement!

But at the moment, let alone crossing with Jiuding, even whether the gate of the Taimiao can enter is a big question mark.

Li Mu was quite understanding, and persuaded in Chen Zheng's room: "Brother Lu just wants to enter the Taimiao Temple to take a look at Jiuding, tomorrow I will go with the eldest brother to test it, as long as I bring a few treasures in the box, I don't believe that the people who guard the Taimiao are all iron and clay sculptures?!" ”

Thinking of the next day's trip to Taimiao, Chen Zheng was so excited that he tossed and turned, and he didn't close his eyes almost all night.

Early the next morning, Chen Zheng took out a few pieces of jade from the box presented by Yingzhu and put them on his body, and instructed the old servants and the Korean team members to stay in the post house for a good life, and he and Li Mu would go back as soon as they went.

Following the coordinates provided by the post house shopkeeper, Chen Zheng and Li Mu ran all the way in Luoyi City, and only after nearly an hour did they see the gate of the Taimiao from a distance.

Sure enough, there were several soldiers holding halberds standing in front of the door of the Taimiao, all with solemn and majestic faces.

Li Mu took the jade bi from Chen Zheng's hand and put it in his arms, and walked straight to the guards.

Chen Zheng watched from a distance nervously, only to see Li Mu whispering to a guard for a while, and the guard beckoned several other people over, and Li Mu was surrounded in the middle.

After a while, Li Mu walked back with a smile on his face, and Chen Zheng saw that there was a play!

Under the influence of a few valuable jades, the guards of the Taimiao are also irresistible to the curious Warring States country tyrants, who let the now declining Zhou royal family only pay basic salary.

As a result, Chen Zheng could take advantage of the fact that no one inside went in to visit, and the time could not exceed half an hour, but Li Mu, who was carrying a sword, was turned away.

Li Mu smiled: "Brother Lu just go in, and the younger brother is waiting outside the door." ”

Chen Zheng didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and he was at a loss for a while, but the matter had come to this point, he opened his bow without looking back, and under the encouragement of Li Mu's firm eyes, he walked towards the Taimiao step by step.
