Chapter Ninety-Three: The Great Liang of the Wei State
"In this way, I, Storm Kite, am willing to meet the king and try it." The violent kite said, but he shifted his gaze to Mao Sui and said, "I don't know if Mr. Mao dares to go to the palace with me to meet the king." ”
Storm Kite stared at Mao Sui to see if he was going, he was a military general, and he was familiar with Han Wangran and Zhang Ping, who had not dealt with political affairs for many years, so he didn't dare to agree casually. If Mao Sui didn't dare to go, he could decide that Mao Sui was tricking him, and if he dared to follow him to meet King Han again, he could prove that what Mao Sui said could still be believed.
"Don't you dare to go." Mao Sui smiled confidently.
......
Wei State Liang.
Ermine Bo patiently walked in the market of Daliang, and behind him there was a team of Qi guards, all of whom looked back and forth, as if looking for the difference between this Wei Liang and Qi Linzi.
As far as the eye can see, the black brick and white tile houses have formed a line, as if they have opened the eight figures, extending to both sides, and at the end, it is the inner city river of Daliang City, and below the houses is a dense crowd of people, these people are not dressed much differently from the Qi people, it seems to be the oldest clothing, the crown is not as high as the Qi people, almost as high as the hanging temples, and the clothes are also painted with various patterns, unlike the Qi people are still plain clothes.
These crowds of people, including nobles in chariots and horses, with dozens of servants in each other, surrounded their masters and sons to prevent these untouchables from soiling the freshly changed clothes. In the bustling crowd, you can see some young scholars wearing Confucian clothes, but in addition to the common people, the most are the merchants who come and go from other countries.
Of course, these guards also have to protect their Qi State's subordinate Mink Bo, but they are a little powerless in these people, and can only approach the edges of the houses on both sides, where there are stalls such as firing clay pots and selling jewelry, and the flow of people can be sparse.
These guards couldn't help muttering: "Although the commercial market of this Wei State is prosperous, it is not as orderly as Linzi, and there are no officials to maintain order. ”
After hearing this, Ermine Bo next to him smiled and said: "This Daliang City was the capital of Wei when King Wei Hui was the capital of Wei, and the previous capital was Anyi. The time that this Daliang City has been the capital city for only about 70 years, how can it be compared to Linzi for hundreds of years. And Linzi was built with pipes at that time..."
When it came to pipes, the guards of the Qi State couldn't help but puff up their chests, this is the celebrity effect. At this time, the ministers of the nations, the princes can only be compared with Guan Zhong, even if someone praises them for being comparable to Guan Zhong, they dare not compare with each other.
"Doctor Mink knows so much, and he deserves to be a sage of my Qi country." One of the guards praised.
"It's Mink Qing now, and Dr. Mink has been promoted." The other guard retorted, a slight envy in his tone, but more admiration.
Mink Bo smiled and shook his head, after all, it is also a happy thing to be praised by others, he said: "But Daliang also has merits, when Wei Wenhou and Wei Wuhou were there, the capital was still in Anyi, but at that time there was Daliang City." At that time, Wei Wenhou was worried that Anyi was between the mountains and ravines and it was difficult to develop, but he did forget that although Daliang is located in the plain, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no danger of besieging the city! It is true that there is no danger in the period of Wei Wenhou and Wei Wuhou, but when Wei Hui was king, our Qi army once besieged Daliang City. ”
"My Qi army once besieged Daliang!" The guards began to cheer.
These words attracted the sideways glances of some Wei people, and they all glared viciously at the Qi guards who opened their mouths, but when they saw that they were wearing armor, they didn't dare to step forward, so they had to curse in their mouths.
The guards all shrunk their heads, but then they reflected with pride.
After passing through the crowd, one of the guards asked abruptly, "These Wei commoners are really barbaric." After finishing speaking, he saw Mink Bo glaring at him secretly, his voice getting lower and lower, but there was still some dissatisfaction in his mouth.
"Dare to ask who are the four sages of Minkqing?" One of the guards asked, he had just clearly seen the look of admiration on his face when Diao Bo said Wei Wen Sixian.
Mink Bo sank his throat, pressed the displeasure just now to his heart, and patiently explained to everyone: "When it comes to the four sages of Wei Wenhou, it is these four people, Le Yang, Li Yi, Ximen Leopard, and Wu Qi. These four people are all famous ministers in the world, Le Yang and Wu Qi once led the army to destroy the Zhongshan Kingdom, which is Quyang, Lingshou, Xingtai and other places in the current Zhao State. Li Yan is a capable minister of Wei State, which is equivalent to Zou Ji's prime minister during the reign of King Wei of Qi State, but Li Yan's change of law made Wei State hegemonic, but Zou can't compare. Ximen Leopard was good at people's livelihood, and he actively carried out water conservancy improvements, so that the land that was not very rich in Wei became a place of plaster in the world. As for Wu Qi, he fought seventy-two battles, won sixty-four games, drew eight games, and never lost a single game in his life..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a loud drum beat, and the guards looked ahead with some displeasure.
"Knock knock!"
The sound of drums continued one after another, coming from the direction of the Inner City River ahead. The aristocrats, merchants, laborers, common people, and slaves in the streets looked up and listened.
I don't know who shouted: "There are 12 big drums and 8 small drums, which are the sound of clearing the streets." ”
As soon as the man finished speaking, the crowd could not help but quicken their pace and walk in the opposite direction of the Neicheng River, and for a moment there was the sound of chariots and horses rolling in a hurry, the shouts and scolding of peasant women, the scolding of nobles, and the breaking of the clay pot under the house because they did not know that the man had mistakenly stepped on it, and the noise. The miscellaneous things were mixed together, and the street market that seemed orderly just now suddenly became chickens and dogs.
The guards beside the mink immediately became vigilant, and they all gathered the mink together, squeezed towards the side of the house, and finally formed a semicircle around each other, and drew the long swords hanging from their waists, and their faces suddenly became fierce.
When the common people saw the dazzling light of the white flowers, they went away in the direction of the semicircle. All of a sudden, the street was left with a radius of ten steps.
Of course, there is also a burst of sarcasm from the peasant woman scolding and scolding the guards of Qi State!
"What the hell is going on up there?" Mink's face was a little displeased.
These things, he rarely saw when he was in Linzi, and ordinary princes and nobles could not clear the streets in Linzi, and there was only one person who could clear the streets, and that was Qi Wangtian Fazhang!
"Could it be that the king of Wei is in front?" Mink Bo raised his head and looked ahead suspiciously.
