Chapter 436: Here Comes the Opportunity (First Update)
In the end, Yinggao didn't waste too much time with these sons, as for their wives, although Yinggao definitely won't let them end well, since he is already the helmsman of the Ying clan, he naturally can't allow any of the sons' wives to give birth to a child, but they don't know who to give birth to, after all, logically speaking, these sons still have to call themselves uncles and uncles for life, right?
But Yinggao is definitely not ready to meddle in this matter, he has secretly made up his mind, and the unsightly things must be dealt with in accordance with the unsightly methods, but the specific person who implements it must be the unlucky Cao Shen, who made him now Yinggao's dagger in Xianyang City, and the things that are not easy to deal with can only be thrown to him.
In the end, Ying Gao asked Hu Hai to leave the banquet five days later.
After Yinggao left, Hu Hai, who had no one to care about before, was on fire at that time, and many brothers came to greet him, saying that when he left, he would go to the gate of Xianyang City to send him off, and he had already prepared a gift, and he would let him send it over in two days, etc., in the face of such a situation, Hu Hai was still flattered and dealt with carefully.
When Hu Hai really relaxed, it was when it was late at night, and he dragged his tired body back to his mansion, Qi Yi saw Hu Hai's face, and knew that he must have experienced something terrible in Xianyang Palace, and hurriedly pulled him into the house.
"Is there anything big happening at this banquet?"
Before Hu Hai opened his mouth, Qi Yi was already extremely eager, whether this matter could force Yinggao to make concessions was also a question she was very concerned about, after all, Hu Hai was still young, even if she waited for a few years, after the other sons were scattered by Yinggao one after another, the two of them would be able to get the freedom she wanted.
"We, at last, are free, and the king said in the banquet that I will guard Xiangjun and set off for Xiangjun in five days!"
"Oh? Is there such a thing? ”
After Qi Yi heard this, he didn't react for a while, and stood in front of Hu Hai for a long time, then he opened his eyes widely, and just wanted to cheer, but he knew that it was not the time or the place, so he could only confirm this matter to Hu Hai in a low voice.
"Yes, I think it was the king who found out that the other brothers were spreading the previous rumors, only I didn't participate in this matter, and I wanted to calm the rumors among the people, so I was chosen, you listen to me, these days, many brothers and officials in the court are afraid that they will come to the house to send some gifts, or get close to you and me, and they must not let them see the clues, what was it like before, what it was like in the past five days, and when the two of us arrived safely in the distant Xiangjun, everything in Xianyang City is beyond the reach of the whip commander!"
Although Hu Hai's voice was low when he said this, his determination was very high, and what was even more commendable was that at this point, he still maintained a very rational position, thinking in his heart what he would do during his time in Xianyang City so as not to be seen as wrong.
Looking at Hu Hai, who was full of wisdom at this time, Qi Yi suddenly felt that his luck didn't seem to be so bad, Hu Hai was by no means as timid as he imagined before, and he was obviously not a stupid person.
Five days before Hu Hai took office in Xiangjun, as predicted by Hu Hai, almost all of his brothers came to his house with gifts, saying that they were bidding farewell to him, but of course Hu Hai knew that it was because he was not only the son of Daqin now, but also the same as his eldest brother Fusu, he had become the lord of a county, if he did a good job in Xiangjun, when he returned to Xianyang City one day, his achievements would be different from now.
Only one day later, Yinggao's edict also spread throughout Xianyang City, about Yinggao, Fusu and Hu Hai had competed for the position of the prince of Great Qin, and many people in Xianyang City knew about it.
Now Yinggao dared to let Hu Hai go to Xiangjun to be the county guard, which couldn't help but make the people of Daqin, who had a little opinion about Yinggao because of rumors, begin to admire Yinggao's courage and courage again.
The reversal of the people's will is difficult to say, but it is also simple to say that it is simple, and this is something that Yinggao, who has studied a lot of history in his previous life, still knows.
The people's evaluation of an emperor's quality and badness must be very simple and direct, almost doing one thing, you can have an immediate effect in the hearts of the people, but the people will not delve into what kind of deep meaning is behind this matter, because they don't know what happened in the court and Xianyang Palace.
used a Hu Hai who cowered and didn't dare to do anything on weekdays in exchange for the praise of the people of Daqin, but the sons of those initiators didn't get any benefits, which made Xiao He and Meng Yi very praised Yinggao's approach, what Hu Hai was like for so many years, they really knew too well.
Five days of preparation, it was fleeting, because there were only two people Hu Hai and Qi Yi, plus some attendants, it could be regarded as lightly traveling, and on the first night of their departure, Qi Yi pulled Hu Hai aside, with some worried looks on his face.
"The person who wrote the letter to me and others has not appeared for a long time, and if you and I go to Xiangjun like this, I don't know if we can still contact him."
This time about the rumors, of course Qi Yi knew that it was the mysterious person who made a lot of effort from it, and she always vaguely felt that she and Hu Hai could still borrow the power of that person, but some time ago, that person suddenly disappeared, and the letter was broken, until now.
"Madame is relieved, this rumor is circulating in Xianyang City, this person should have withdrawn from Xianyang City for insurance, I don't know where to hide, with the king's mind, he will definitely guess that there is a mastermind behind this rumor, it is good to have this person in the dark, but I can make the king not notice me, I can only see other brothers being bewitched by others to spread the rumors, otherwise, under the same opportunity, the king should not give me this opportunity."
Hu Hai has been tracing this matter these days, he is now in the prime of his twenties, no longer a half-old child a few years ago, and he is almost still in the purpose of his high ability back then.
That's why he told Qi Yi not to show his head in this matter again, because once there are any traces left, Yinggao will have a great chance of finding you along the traces.
"What are you going to do when you arrive in Xiangjun?"
"After arriving in Xiangjun, if my expectations are good, the mysterious person will take the initiative to contact me and even make a request, but you and I must ignore his request, and I must first focus on dealing with immigrants from all over Daqin, otherwise, I am afraid that if I do not gain a firm foothold in Xiangjun, I will be caught by the king."
"What does Childe mean that the mysterious man has been targeted by the king?"
After listening to Hu Hai's words for a long time, Qi Yi finally reacted, but her heart was not quite like believing that an emperor who sat in Xianyang Palace every day or couldn't see the sky, or didn't know which county to go to to profligate, could have such sharp eyes.
"Most of the kings know about the existence of this person, but they haven't figured out his details, until now, the connection between us and that person must not be known, so after arriving in Xiangjun, you and I should pay more attention, before we have our own power, we must not move lightly."
When Hu Hai was repeatedly emphasizing to Qi Yi in his mansion the precautions after arriving in Xiangjun, Ying Gao was also pacing in his main hall, muttering something to himself.
"Even if he had completely closed himself off to his own world all these years, why didn't he show the same surprise as I expected when I sent him to something as big as Xiangjun? It is said that he should not care about the rumors outside at all...... That's it, there are arrangements left and right in Guilin, right and wrong, the answer will be given in the end, Hu Hai...... I was here to save you, but don't let me down......"
For Hu Hai, Ying Gao is actually very sympathetic, he came to the time node of this era, he can intercept the tragedy of Fusu, can block the killing of all the sons and princesses of Daqin, but it is impossible to avoid the fact that Hu Hai has been fooled by Zhao Gao, this matter is also a big regret in Ying Gao's heart, so for Hu Hai, he still attaches more importance to it.
Another day passed, Hu Hai left Xianyang City under the farewell of many sons and officials in the court, and went in the direction of Xiangjun under the escort of a small group of guards.
The road to Xiangjun is far away, and the time of this trip is not short, so Yinggao specially set up a guard for Hu Hai, and after arriving in Xiangjun, he will also protect the safety of Hu Hai's family for a while, after all, it was still the territory of the South Vietnamese a few months ago, and it was just taken by the army of Nanhai County and did not have much time.
What Hu Hai didn't know was that when he had just set off from Xianyang City, Liu Wei and Sun Qian had just arrived in Guilin County, which was next to Xiang County.
Bushan County is the seat of Guilin County, which is located in the west of Guilin County, not far from Xiang County. After Liu Wei and Sun Qian rode here on horseback, they found out how good Luoyang was, and now the county seat of Guilin County is not as good as the village on the outskirts of Luoyang City, where Sun Qian is located.
The first batch of immigrants had arrived in Guilin, and according to Yinggao's previous deployment, it was to slowly increase the population with Bushan County as the center, but when Liu Weisun arrived in Bushan County, they lived in simple tents almost unclothed, and the so-called Bushan County was just a circle of villages surrounded by mounds.
As soon as the two of them looked at it, they knew that what Yinggao said to them in Luoyang before was not to scare them, it turned out that Liu Wei thought that Yinggao asked him to come just to manage the new immigrants here, where did he need a helper like Sun Qian.
And now, Liu Wei even felt that it was not enough to have a grandson, and he had already known that he would dig up several officials in Luoyang who had a good relationship with him.
What's more critical is that the development of Guilin County is just the most basic work of the two of them, and according to the previous Yinggao arrangement, they still have hidden tasks.
"The county guard, according to what the king said before, it is estimated that it will take some time for the county guard of Xiang County to arrive, and during this time, I still have to use these people and others in Guilin to build this county seat first, otherwise...... I'm afraid it's hard to meet your lord's requirements! ”
Looking at Liu Wei with a sad face, Sun Qian stepped forward to remind. Sun Qian, as a Qianshou who has lived a hard life for half his life, has seen a situation worse than this, and the best thing here is that although there is nothing, there is no shortage of food, clothing, and manpower, so in Sun Qian's eyes, it is a matter of time before it develops.
Looking at Sun Qian's confident eyes, Liu Wei also had a little bit of confidence, and at this time, he could only trust Sun Qian, after all, for the two of them, the real test was still to come.
The center of Fengyun was obviously moving from Xianyang City to the remote Xiang County during this time, but many people didn't know it.
In an earthen shrine somewhere, surrounded by barren land, two men were sitting around a small group of bonfires, and a whole hare was roasting on the fire, which was bubbling with grease.
The two people sitting in front of the fire were Zhao Cheng, who didn't know when he had withdrawn from Xianyang City, and the big man beside him, at this time Zhao Cheng was manipulating the hare on the fire so that it wouldn't be roasted, and the big man next to him was panting, obviously just returning here.
Dahan breathed for a while, and waited until he was out of breath, and then he opened his mouth with excitement: "Childe, there is good news this time, after the rumors spread by us spread in Xianyang City, the emperor was really a little panicked, and just a few days after the two of us withdrew, he announced that he had sent a prince to Xiangjun to serve as the county guard, and this person was Hu Hai, who had been in contact with us before!" ”
"Oh? He dared to send Hu Hai out of Xianyang, what a boldness! ”
Zhao Cheng was also quite shocked when he heard that it was Hu Hai who was sent out by Ying Gao, as Zhao Gao's younger brother, he naturally knew quite much about Hu Hai and Ying Gao's past, so Hu Hai was able to come out, which was really quite unexpected.
He knew that the opportunity he had been waiting for for a long time might really come at this moment, and what he had to do was to seize it.
