At the beginning of November, a group of 10 vehicles and more than 100 horsemen left Handan and headed for the vast north when the rooster had just crowed and the east had not yet dawned. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Surrounded in the middle of the cart, inserted to represent the country's festival, yak tail weaving triple feather fluttering in the wind, inside the car sat a well-dressed boy in court clothes, holding a jade gui, on the rickety carriage closed his eyes to recuperate.

This son is none other than Chang'anjun!

It turned out that a few days ago, after Mingyue took the initiative to ask Ying to be an envoy to the Yan State for peace talks, the Empress Dowager Zhao changed color and reprimanded him: "You just went to Linzi to be a hostage, and you were assassinated by the Yan State, how can you enter the tiger's mouth again?" ”

However, Mingyue began to know with reason and emotion, he said that now that Yan Guo has been scared, Wuyang is in danger, how dare he provoke Zhao Guo again? As an envoy, he took advantage of his assassination to morally suppress the Yan people and force them to conclude an alliance under the city......

"There is another advantage of letting Er'er be an envoy, so that Er'er can meet her sister in person and greet her for how she is doing in Yan Kingdom, like she conveys her mother's thoughts......"

Speaking of this, Mingyue lowered her voice and said: "If King Yan is okay with his sister, his son can relax on the peace treaty between the two countries; If King Yan is not good to his sister, he will inevitably learn from Lin Qing, return to Zhao after a play, and bring his sister back, so that every time Yan and Zhao have a bad relationship, she will be caught in the middle and it is difficult to do! ”

It is also a coincidence, the name of Queen Yan is "Biren", it is said that Lin Xiangru returned to Zhao after Bi, and it happened that Queen Yan was full of age, and King Zhao Huiwen was happy, so he gave her such a name.

"You child, your sister is already the queen of Yan, even if she is dead, she has to stay in the tomb of King Yan, how can she go back?"

Of course, Empress Dowager Zhao reprimanded these childish words, but her heart was warm, it turned out that she was not the only one who cared about her daughter, and Mingyue did not forget the love of her sister and brother......

The child who values affection is his mother's favorite, and after thinking about it, it is indeed the most appropriate for Mingyue, who is a close relative, to visit Empress Yan, so as to understand her true situation, so under her son's good words, Empress Dowager Zhao slowly relented.

After Mingyue's visit, Empress Dowager Zhao no longer treats him as a child. As a son, he should share his worries for the country, not to mention as a positive envoy, because the unwritten rule that the two countries are at war and do not kill the envoy, it is much safer than being a hostage with an axe on his neck at any time.

After moving the Empress Dowager Zhao, Mingyue will be officially appointed, and he naturally opposes Xiang Bang Tiandan, who uses him as an envoy and wants to create greater hatred and misunderstanding between Yan and Zhao, but he can't find a clear reason.

Lin Xiangru, Yu Xin and others, who have real power, expressed their support, after all, the assassination of Chang'an Jun was the cause of the battle of Yan and Zhao.

As for Chang'anjun's eloquence, as long as he inquired about his deeds of scolding the old Confucian to death in the Qi State and deposing the Qin envoy Wang Ji, no one would dare to doubt it.

Even though King Zhao was still a little jealous, but looking at the Queen Mother's approval, the ministers also agreed, and then thought about it, it was thousands of miles north to Yan Kingdom, and in this cold winter, if the horse's hooves slipped, or Chang'an Jun was sick because of the water and soil......

With many parties in their own minds, the matter was decided, and Mingyue left Handan in early November and went north to Yanguo.

……

Different from the route when they entered Qi, they took the road that ran through the north of Zhao State, passed through Julu and sand dunes, went directly to Hejian City, and then passed through Rao County to enter the territory of Yan State.

This road is the densely populated area of Zhao State, especially in the area of giant deer and sand dunes, the land is thin and crowded, not only there are the magnificent royal palaces of the sand dunes, but also some of the remnants of the Yin people who are said to be left in the Shang Dynasty, the folk customs here are anxious to rely on opportunism to make a living, the bright moon is seen along the way, this area seems to be not full of agricultural customs, men often gather together to play games and play sad songs and generosity, there are also masked bandits along the way from time to time, but see them This large army is far away.

The local officials told Mingyue that those thieves were actually pretended to be local evil boys and rangers, specializing in intercepting passing business trips and extortion, and the government repeatedly banned them, and at night, these people would go to dig graves and rob tombs.

As for the women, they were not honest in their households, and their minds were focused on other things—because the women in this area were very beautiful, they were the main source of maids and maids of the palace......

Mingyue shook her head at this morbid atmosphere, but after leaving the dunes, the farther north she went, the colder the weather became, and the surroundings became less lively. The avenue, which used to accommodate three cars in parallel, gradually became a path that could only accommodate one car, but fortunately, the terrain was flat, and the wilderness stretched infinitely in front of the eyes until the end of the eye.

Here, it is the so-called "river", although this piece has not been fully developed in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but can not stop the merchants born for profit, the road is quite frequent, and it is very easy to find a post station and pavilion to rest after sunset.

However, the good times did not last long, and after they left Raocheng, the roads were deserted, and the farmland began to recede, leaving only dense deep forests and uninhabited wilderness, and sometimes they had to sleep in the wilderness, and every night, in the forests that no one seemed to have set foot on, there would be wolf howls one after another......

Seeing that the little boy's entourage was a little vigilant, he reported the situation to him: "Chang'anjun, after leaving Raocheng, a hundred miles further to Gaoyangyi in Yan Kingdom, it is all wasteland, and there is no township to stay in......"

"More than 2,000 years later, it is impossible for there to be such a no-man's land in central Hebei." Mingyue bowed her head, her heart was secretly speechless, and then she thought of another thing.

In fact, before he left Handan, Empress Dowager Zhao had informed him in advance that if he could successfully complete his mission this time, he might be able to seal the area around Raocheng to him as a real fiefdom......

As far as he is a young man who has not made military achievements, this reward is already good, but Mingyue is a little unwilling to accept it.

"Raocheng is still too far away, and it is sparsely populated." After really coming to this area, Mingyue came to the conclusion that with the foundation and location of Rao City, unless it took a generation of effort to transform the operation, there would be no improvement.

The most important thing is that Raocheng is too far away from the Qin State, and a series of plans as far away as Mingyue have no chance to be carried out.

Leaving this to mention, they arrived at Gaoyang City, which had fallen into the hands of Zhao Jun in mid-November, where he also met Zhao Kuo, who had been lost for a long time......

When Mingyue had not yet arrived in Gaoyang City, he met a team of people and horses, and a young general whose face was red from the cold, with a soft beard on his chin, but still high-spirited. ”

"Brother Kuo!" Mingyue also lifted the curtain, greeted him with a smile, and after looking him up and down, praised: "I haven't seen you for three months, Brother Kuo is already a general who has experienced battle!" ”

With sharp eyes, he saw that Zhao Kuo's clothing and armor system was no longer five hundred masters, and after being promoted to a captain, he congratulated him and said: "I have also been promoted, I must have made a great contribution?" ”

Zhao Kuo's face was a little helpless: "The captain who commanded me died in the middle of the attack on Gaoyang last month, and I took over his position......

Then he swept away the gloom on his face, pointed to the city behind him and said with a smile: "Don't talk about this, Chang'anjun has come from afar, he must be very tired, I have asked the city to arrange accommodation and food, and ask Chang'anjun to rest, and I will take you around this Gaoyang City later, which was originally the fief of the general of Yanguo, Rong Yan, but now it has been captured by our army and used as a front-line battalion......"

"The front-line battalion, so Ma Fujun is also here? It just so happened that I was going to ask him for advice on how to defeat the Yan army in three months and sue for peace in a hurry! ”

It's okay not to mention it, as soon as Zhao Hao was mentioned, Zhao Kuo suddenly frowned again, and looked at no one next to him, so he pulled Mingyue over and said softly:

"Chang'anjun, this matter must not be spread outside, my father's old injury has recurred, and he has fallen ill......"
