After the colorful king boat flying the three-headed phoenix flag sailed through Ziyi, it slowly entered Shangcai of the Wei State. The sun was scorching, and Sun Mao, the county guard of Shangcai County, had been waiting on the border. As soon as Wang Zhou entered the Wei realm, he respectfully leaned up to greet him, carefully delivered some delicate pastries and fruits, and then ordered the boat master to go to Caicheng in front of him.

Originally, he went to Wancheng to meet his father, but when he went to Xixian County, Wang ordered him to come again, saying that the military situation was urgent, and he wanted to go to Shangcai instead of Wancheng. Wang Zhou turned east from Xixian County into Rushui. When the boat was traveling, the cool breeze was gentle, and Wang Yinyou brought a lot of ice cubes from the cellar when he left the palace, and the boat did not feel hot at all, and it was Mi Xuan's heart that was anxious.

She didn't think about why her father became the envoy of Qin, nor did she think about how he entered the Wei realm again, she was only thinking about the heavy snow last winter, and only thinking about everything that Xianyang couldn't give up, so that when she met her father at Shangcai Wharf, she had cried into tears.

"Xuan'er is already the queen of Chu, and she cries like this, it's too embarrassing for the queen." Xiong Qi teased softly in her ear, and Mi Xuan couldn't cry or laugh for a while.

Although she is still suing the temple, her food, clothing, housing and transportation are no different from the queen. Thinking that she was no longer the son-in-law of the Mi family, but the queen of the Chu State, she couldn't help but stop her tears, blocked her crying red eyes with a Chu paper fan, and asked, "Is the royal father at home safe?" ”

"Ann. The royal father Yasuya. "Mi Ling is also full of tears, he has long lost the demeanor of the Qin envoy, just an old father who is about to marry his daughter." Your queen mother, and your mother is fine. It's just that you, O queen mother, think of you every day, and snatch you away from you, and you will suffer in the future. When I saw that your father and I were in Chu, I asked someone to make a few sets of summer clothes, and asked your father and me to bring ......."

Huayang Empress Dowager Mi Xuan is an aunt, and Mi Xuan also has a grandmother. This grandmother is not pretending to be a granddaughter on weekdays, but she is talking about it every day when she heard that she was snatched away by the Chu people. As she spoke, the servant brought a few sets of light-colored dark skirts, and stroked these dresses, and she couldn't help crying.

"Meet...... Meet the Queen. After the dress was presented, the former maids such as Cui Sleeve and Xiuzhu also came up to salute. They didn't dare to call the young lady again, they only called her queen.

"You wait......" In the Chu Palace, there was no one to speak, and the former maid suddenly bowed in front of her, and she couldn't hold back her tears and laughed.

"They also remember you every day." Qi Ling looked at her daughter, "Thinking that you don't know anyone in Chu State, I let them come." ”

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." Mi Xuan wiped her tears and said urgently.

"The queen doesn't thank me either." Mi Xuan cried and laughed, and Xiong Qi was so bored standing aside. When Mi Xuan really wanted to thank him, he stopped her again, pointed to the more boring and embarrassed county guard Gongsun Mao, and said, "I should also thank Gongsun County Shou." ”

Gongsun Mao was originally a military general, and after the annexation of Korea by Qin last year, King Wei quickly removed the original county guard and made him the county guard of Shangcai County. When Mi Xuan's father and daughter met just now, he could only stand aside and laugh. Xiong Qi asked Mi Xuan to thank him, but he hurriedly avoided it and said, "How dare you." We were ordered by the widow to welcome the queen of Great Chu, the uncle of Great Chu, and the prime minister of Great Qin, which is very fortunate and fortunate. Come! He has not welcomed the nobles into the house. ”

Speaking to the distinguished guests in a low voice, as soon as he turned his head to look at his side, Gongsun Mao showed his true colors as a military general, and tore his throat to drink. The servant who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly stepped forward to serve.

"Childe, that is the ...... of the Queen of Chu" On the corner of the Cai city wall, a childish face leaked out of the female wall. One eye of his face was closed, and the other eye was facing the bronze Lu Lijing, looking at Mi Xuan who covered his face from time to time on the dock. Her voice paused, she should have seen Mi Xuan's face clearly, and her voice suddenly rose up: "Ah! Queen Meifu. ”

Once Mi Xuan changed into the queen's dress, the people who saw it didn't say that it was not beautiful. It was precisely because Gongsun Yan was so beautiful that she left Lu Lijing to Zhan Yi.

A robber who broke into his house and killed his retainers; A handsome and polite king, who is angry and ambushes millions of corpses, these two people are actually one person in her world.

Whenever she heard that the king was going to sacrifice himself to this man, her face would be like frost, but under this frost, her body was hot to the point of wetness. From time to time, she dreamed that she was married into the Chu Palace. Of course, she was not a queen, just a humble young envoy. It's a pity that within a few days, Ji's father stopped mentioning this matter, and only the white jade jue accompanied her.

It is said that the king of Chu loved jade, and some of the degraded courtiers were waiting for the royal envoy at the border after being expelled from the Yingdu. If the king's envoy sent a jade jue, the jue is also a trick. The courtier can only leave the country in gloom; If the king's envoy sends a jade ring, the ringer will return it. The courtier can return to Yingdu. He gave Yu Jue to himself that day, which means that he will never see each other again, right?

When the maid Yi held up the mirror and praised the beauty of Queen Mi Xuan, Gongsun Yan played with the jade jue in her hand, thinking about what no one could guess. She instantly decided that she would never take this jade jue again in the future, and she did not plan to take it to beg him. She will bury it and bury it in the grave.

Surrounded by everyone, Mi Xuan got into the car, and Zhan Yi couldn't see her anymore. "Let's go home." Gongsun Yan acted as if nothing happened.

"Childe, the queen of Chu is very beautiful. Is a woman beautiful enough to be a queen? "Zhan Yi is a girl who hasn't finished yet. She didn't know how to describe Mi Xuan's beauty, so she could only keep saying that it was beautiful.

"Don't talk about how Queen Chu is going to ......be in the future," Gongsun Yan suddenly glared at her. When she was stunned, she breathed a sigh of relief again, and her tone became warm: "The queen is a kingdom, and not everyone can speak of it. ”

"Yui." When Gongsun Yan's tone softened, Zhan Yi felt scared. She is the daughter of the common people, even if she is a common people, how can she talk about nobles? Zhan Yi agreed like this, but she couldn't imagine that just one day later, she couldn't help but talk about Queen Chu.

"Childe? Childe, Childe, Childe......" As if she had encountered a thief's face, she burst in from the outside, her hands bent outward, as if she was powerless to surrender.

"What's the alarm?" Although the maid was ignorant but very obedient, Gongsun Yan thought that someone had bullied her.

"Yes......" Zhan Yi did not have the slightest expression of being bullied, but a panicked and anxious face, and tears flowed out of anxiety.

"What's the matter? Sit. Gongsun Yan has never seen her like this. She got up from the couch and helped her to sit down.

"Yes, yes......" She was so anxious that she wanted to tell her master all the words she had just heard, but the panic made her forget her words and didn't know how to speak. Seeing this, Gongsun Yan didn't ask anymore, but patted her on the back and let her drink a few sips of pulp, and her panic subsided.

"Childe," Zhan Yi was trembling a little as soon as she spoke, and Gongsun Yan held her hand. "It's the queen of Chu, and the queen of Chu wants to kill the king of Chu......"

"You ......" The word "kill" made Gongsun Yan shocked, she forced herself to calm down, and reprimanded: "Nonsense! ”

"Childe, Zhan Yi heard it clearly, and it is definitely not nonsense." Zhan Yi was busy kneeling and bowing, and he paused again and again.

"Where did you hear that? Is there a dance palace? Gongsun Yan took a deep breath, she roughly guessed where Zhan Yi had just gone - Shang Cai was originally the Cai King City, and the palace room in the back bedroom was still in use. Father Ji welcomed the queen of Chu into the royal city and lived in the palace of the Hui Dance.

That palace was originally the queen's main palace, but Cai Guo has been dead for hundreds of years, although the palace is in use, but the room collapsed, and it was also broken after repair. A few days ago, it was said that the king of Chu was coming, and the officials and craftsmen could only hurriedly put wooden planks on the broken wall, glued several layers of Chu paper on the wooden boards, and finally hung up the tent. Zhan Yi must have been curious and secretly went to the Hui Dance Palace.

Hearing Gongsun Yan's question, Zhan Yi, whose eyes were wide-eyed, nodded vigorously. Before serving Gongsun Yan, she was a servant of the previous county guard, and there was a quirky Yan girl living in the Hui Dance Palace at that time, who was the old wife of the county guard.

"If you don't miss a word, tell me everything you heard." Gongsun Yan's heart trembled and she said.

On the day that Mi Xuan and his father met, Xiong Jing was already in Shangluo City. He finally adopted the advice of Dou Chang and others, and without waiting for the sappers to dredge Danshui, except for the two divisions stationed in Shangyi, the rest of the Chu army abandoned the boat and went ashore, carrying five days of dry food, and rushed from Zhulin Pass to Lantian 360 miles away.

The situation was not optimistic, and when he arrived at Shangluo, the plank roads on the two valley roads at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains were burned down. The plank road burned down, and the Qin army also built a dam at the place where the blue water and the flowing valley water flowed, blocking the mountain water in the mountain stream - Zhao Zheng announced in the court: There is a strange plan to stop the people in the blue field, and the reward will be heavy. On the same day, there was a suggestion to burn the plank road and build an embankment to accumulate water.

In summer, it rains a lot in Japan, and the valley road north of the Qinling Mountains is easy to be waterlogged, and the reason why the trestle bridge is erected is precisely because it is necessary to avoid waterlogging. Now not only has the trestle been burned, but also a dam has been built at the mouth of the valley, and the two good valley roads are slowly turning into reservoirs.

"Your Majesty, the two ways have been able to do it." Cheng Kui and Dou Zang arrived at the pass with Yu Jing two days ago, some people were happy that the Qin people did not even dare to be punctual, the north and northwest were on fire, and the trestle bridge of Liuyu Road in the north of the road was burned down by the Qin people.

"Where has the water gone?" Dou Chang asked. At this time, everyone was facing a huge sand table, and the sand on the sand table was solidified with wax, outlining the landform of the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains. Dou Zang had never seen such a thing before, and he looked at the sand table full of astonishment. Of course, Cheng Kui knows that there is a course in the military academy that is cartography.

"Over there." Cheng Kui pointed to somewhere in the northernmost part of Liuyu Road.

If you take the Yaoguan Road and Liuyu Road as the outer edge, then the Qinling Mountains shown on the sand table are leather boots with heels in the west and toes facing east. The road goes west from the tip of the boot to the sole, and then along the boot to the north, and the five miles out of the valley is the Bashui in front of it; Liuyu Road is the boot tip along the upper to the west, and then turn along the boot tube to the north, out of the valley three, the inside is also Ba Shui.

The Qin army built a dam at the mouth of the narrow valley, and the road was full of water from the middle of the boot soles; The Liuyu Road, which starts from the corner of the boot shaft, is also full of water. What is even more unexpected is that the Shimen Road, which was only built in the Tang Dynasty to the north of the Yaoguan Road, was also dammed, and the Qin army wanted to block all the valley roads that could be marched.
