Chapter Ninety-Six: Adultery

In the northern city of Xianyang, lobbying syndicate evolved into a hostage exchange; In the lower reaches of the Yellow River, the first news in the morning reached Xiang Yan from Yingdu, and he was standing south of the ferry. In Fangcheng, Nanyang, the Wei scouts riding dragon horses were disappointed to see that the Qin army did not continue to the south after pulling out the camp, but turned to the east.

A war that decides the fate of the world, three battlefields separated by thousands of miles. However, these trappers Xia Yang who fled in embarrassment were too far away, and the Xianyang City he cared about was a hundred miles away, but he could only go farther and farther and west.

The judgment of the black face is really correct, and if the trapping soldiers are not used, the Qin army will be defeated. People who know each other well in the team have been prepared for this for a long time. However, when arranging the troops, the whole team was arranged in an array close to the left army. As soon as the Chinese army was defeated, everyone was first dragged south by the rout, and then went west in the afternoon under the stop of the black face. This place was originally the confinement of the king's homeland, Lin Yuan Chize was confused, and in the second half of the night, the dark clouds covered the stars and the moon, and the people got lost without suspense, and waited for the sky to be slightly bright before they looked for the direction again.

"Woohoo." Huang Mian, who had just escaped the Chu army's reconnaissance cavalry, held a stack of cakes in his hand and gave cakes to his comrades.

After running all night, everyone was already hungry, and they didn't care what the black noodles were, and hurriedly stuffed them into their mouths. The cake is a coarse corn of rice, mixed with unfinished chaff, which is not the food of the soldiers, but the food of the servants and the transport soldiers. However, at this time, no one is so particular, and they are all gobbling up the cake. After eating a cake blindly, he saw that there were still a few left in his hand, so he stepped forward to grab it, but he avoided it and let him catch it. "What do you want?"

"Bread, I want to eat bread." If you are blind and catch it again, it will still be in vain.

"One person, one bread, no more." If it weren't for the strength of the crowd, the black face didn't want to go with the blind and others.

"They are not as strong as mine, and I should eat more." Seeing that the black noodles wrapped the cake and carried it on his back, the corners of his mouth were watering, and he wanted to fight.

"Dare!" The dark face scolded angrily and pushed him away.

"If you have the heart to flee, you will not be afraid of me to sue you?" Summer mornings are still cool, but a blind word will bring the temperature to a boil. Dark face, Xia Yang, black beard, Zhen ......, everyone has changed color.

"Kill them!" Black Whisker drew his sword, Zhen and the others also stepped forward with a spear, and the black face hesitated for a moment, and finally had to draw the sword. Only Xia Yang muttered in his mouth, yesterday he was still as close as a brother, but today he turned his face because of a few cakes. He lifted up the half of his bread and stepped forward, saying, "Eat my bread!" Eat My Bread......"

"Go!" A trapper beside the blind man kicked Xia Yang, and he fell to the ground. Blackbeard yelled, "Shaft dares! He threw his sword, picked up a short pole on the ground, and stepped forward.

Seeing that the two sides were about to fight and fight, a row of soldiers suddenly flashed out of the bushes that thought it was uninhabited, and the leader shouted: "Stop! ”

The state of Qin encouraged adultery and instituted rich rewards for adultery. The smarter ones don't go to the battlefield at all, and they don't get promoted by cutting off their heads, but by telling traitors. If someone really came to the Qin Dynasty in later generations, the most suitable way to climb was to sue for adultery, rather than risking death from illness, death, war, or even being killed by their comrades to snatch people's heads on the battlefield.

For example, Chang Yu, a fake temple person in his palace can be named the Marquis of Changxin, almost the same level as Lu Buwei, what does he rely on? By winning the first rank? Relying on the opposition to talk about profits, siege on profits? Of course not. What he can do is to sue for adultery.

However, this way of promotion is not suitable for illiterate Qianshou, they don't understand Qin law, they don't know what is illegal and what is not illegal, and they don't know how to sue for adultery - the benefit of adultery is so large, in order to prevent everyone from suing indiscriminately, Qin law stipulates false accusations and back-sitting. The head of Qian, who doesn't make sense, can't sue him if he wants to.

Blind and lucky, he observed all the way and found that the black face and the others had already prepared to flee, so he secretly wrote it down. Once he arrived at the city or returned to the barracks, he had to tell the others to flee. In the end, he was still illiterate and knowledgeable, and he couldn't hide things in his heart, and he was just hungry and threatened him with this matter, and everyone was immediately angry.

According to Qin law, it is a capital crime to escape from the battle. Qin Law also has a characteristic, that is, it severely punishes gang crimes. For the same crime, there is a world of difference between the punishment of less than five people and the punishment of more than five people. Black Face, Black Beard, Xia Yang, Zhen, Da, this is already full of five people, plus the corpse and Chang, it is already seven. Seven people organized and carried out the escape before the war, such a crime is not as simple as poking and abandoning the city, this has already punished the family and punished as a ghost slave.

According to the minimum standard of adultery (rebellion and national thief are high standards), suing a person to death is considered a head, and if the adultery is successful, the blind can harvest seven heads. Seven heads are enough for him to be promoted to the third-class lord's hairpin, and even if he is guilty, he can go to the second-class lord to make it, and he can immediately get out of the trap camp. As for the other uninformed soldiers, if they don't want to sit together, then they must stand on the side of the blind eye and help the blind eye restrain the seven people in the black face.

Fifteen people escaped from the whole team, although there was one more person on the blind side, and Xia Yang on his side was unbearable, six against eight, and the black face still felt that he had a chance to win. Helplessly, a platoon of soldiers suddenly appeared, and shouted loudly to stop, thinking that they had heard about what they were doing.

"Hurry up!" Zhen, who saw the fastest, was about to flee for his life. Although the blind and others are not dead, the imperial court can still find out the household registration of everyone, but there is not so much care between life and death, and only when they escape can they have a future.

Zhen who saw the fastest was about to escape, but he didn't expect another sound of leaves, and the other two rows of armor soldiers rushed out of the bushes, and Zhen rushed east and west, all of which were stopped by these armor soldiers. At this time, even the most calm face trembled, he threw away the bronze sword in his hand, knelt on the ground and shouted: "I am the only one who has to do with the escape, and it has nothing to do with them. ”

"Nonsense!" Blind and cried out, "The flight was done by the seven of them, and the hundred generals must not be deceived by them." ”

"Why are there seven people, I'm the only one, please general!" Forty or fifty armor soldiers, considering that the establishment was dispersed early, the person who led the troops was at most a hundred generals, but the face had long noticed that the people who led the troops were different. This person was indeed wearing a long shirt and tarsal note of a hundred generals, but the pair of leather boots on his feet had copper bubble nails.

This is a kind of 鞮, 屦. It is only worn by nobles, and it is a battle that only nobles wear in wartime. Seeing that the other party was wearing a hat, and then looking at the other party's appearance and temperament, he knew that he couldn't escape, so he could only abandon the army and kneel on the ground. Although this can't change anything, it can at least make his death a little more comfortable, and it can also save his family from suffering so many crimes.

Hiding in the bushes, hearing a group of routs arguing, and now arguing in front of him, the hundred generals who wore the skulls did not say anything, he went straight to the black face, and asked, "Where is the bread?" ”

"Cake?" The dark face, who was already ready to die, was stunned.

"Cake, isn't there ...... left" Bai Jiang frowned a little when he spoke, very disappointed.

"Here! Hereon! The black face hurriedly took the big burden on his back. The hundred generals took it, and he said 'um', and a cadre of armor soldiers escorted the black noodles and led them into the bushes with the blind and others.

The shrubs are thick, and after walking more than 100 steps, there is a tall pine forest, and the pine forest walks a little further, and turns over a narrow mound, and the front suddenly opens up, and everyone sees the columns of guards.

"The last general is fortunate to have a cake and sauce, dedicated to the king." The hundred generals were Qi Brown's subordinate Dong Guo Ruo, and he stepped forward to tell Qi Brown.

Last night, a group of people wanted to cross Fengshui and join Yang Duan's department, but who expected that the cavalry of the Chu army would occupy the ferry first, and there was a rush at night, and all the guards of more than 1,000 people ran out of order. Qi Brown couldn't care about it so much, so he took Zhao Zheng and Zhao Gao to this place, which was the place where Zhao Zheng often came when he used to hunt. The army crossed, the birds and beasts ran out early, and Zhao Zheng woke up hungry in the morning, so Qi Brown ordered Dongguo Ruo and a few henchmen to forage for food.

"Who are they?" Qi Brown's attention was not on the cake sauce, but on the unarmored people who were brought in by Dong Guo Ruo.

"All of them are our soldiers." Dong Guo Ruo looked back at a few of them. "The black-faced man plotted to flee with his comrades before the war, so he prepared a cake and sauce. The one who died was his team, and he wanted to sue the adulterer, and the two sides were fighting......"

Yesterday to now is a nightmare, hearing that the black-faced man plotted to escape with others before the war, Qi Brown was not angry, but smiled and said: "There is indeed a prophet, but fleeing is a capital crime, these cakes and sauce ......"

There are not only cakes in the baggage, but also sauce, white salt, and even some herbs. With such meticulous preparation, this person is indeed a talent. However, when plotting to escape, Qi Brown respectfully handed the burden to Zhao Gao and said, "Execute in the distance, leave his body intact." ”

Looking at these things, Qi Brown meant to leave a whole corpse. Even if a person is dead, the corpse still cannot be insulted and violated, let alone beheaded. Dong Guo Ruo bowed when he heard this, and waved his hand to let the guards escort the seven people with black faces into the distance.

In the Warring States, death often came suddenly. The Qin State in the Warring States is especially serious, the Qin State has frequent wars, in addition to diseases and wars, it may also be accused of rape without knowing how, and then inexplicably sit together. Xia Yang, who was on the battlefield for the first time and wanted to go home, couldn't help but tremble when he saw the guards escorting him into the distance, he wanted to shout but the whole person was stiff, and he couldn't say anything with his mouth open.

The face of the dark face could not be seen clearly, and his eyes were dead and gray; Blackbeard reacted most violently, and it took four guards to subdue him, and he scolded his blindness, shouting that he would wait for him in Huangquan and kill his entire family. Among the four people, Zhen, Da, Corpse, and Chang, Zhen cried loudly, and the other three were completely indifferent, neither crying nor resisting, and walked towards the front like a scarecrow.

"Why is that?" Zhao Zheng, dressed in Wei Ben's suit, was biting on a piece of cake. The cake is hard and must be held in the mouth until the saliva moistens it before you can bite into it. Black Whisker's scolding, Zhen's crying, made him stand up and look.

"Tell the king, these are all guilty pawns, and General Qi will kill them." Zhao Gao endured his saliva. He was also hungry, but the Fengshui line had been occupied by the Chu army, and everyone could only hide here.

"Oh." Hearing that he was a guilty pawn, Zhao Zheng sat down again and continued to nibble on the difficult cake.
