Chapter 7 Shan's Visit
The Shan family was one of the two major families under the command of the Eastern Zhou royal family from the late Spring and Autumn Period to the early Warring States period, the other being the Liu family. During the rebellion of the www.biquge.info prince's dynasty, the Liu family and the Shan family supported the prince to become the king of Zhou, and since then he has been in control of Zhou Tianzi and the declining royal family. This two-family situation continued until the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, when the Liu family angered the Fan family, one of the six secretaries in power in the Jin State at that time, and was therefore suppressed by the Fan family. However, there are no flowers for a hundred days, people are not good for a thousand days, decades have passed, under the joint suppression of the royal family and even the newly divided Zhou Gong, although the Shan family is powerful and powerful, but it can no longer control the government, so the current head of the family, Shan Xiong, is very pressured.
In the south of Chengzhou City, this is a mansion second only to the palace in Chengzhou City. Early in the morning, with the sound of coughing, Shan got up. This person's face was slightly vicious, and he was wearing a traitorous face, which was clearly the man in Chinese clothes that Zhou Bian saw the day after he returned to the Zhou Dynasty, the man in Chinese clothes who was rude to the Queen Mother, and he left when the Taishi came. Although a man cannot be seen, this person is exactly what he looks like. Shan Xiong still wants to regain the glory of the family, but he has always been diligent, but his personality has always been impulsive and a little arrogant, to put it bluntly, he lacks a root in his head, so Shan Xiong has been in power for decades, and the status of the Shan family has not changed. After breakfast, Shan Xiong began to discuss the plan with the strategist, the most favored strategist at the moment is surnamed Zheng Mingchao, who is the old Zheng Guoren, after Zheng Guo's death, he defected to Zhou, and was taken in by the Shan family, because of his loyalty, so he was cited by Shan Xiong as a confidant in a short period of time, and because Shan Xiong is mean to people, so there is no majority of strategists under him, so most of the time, Shan Xiong is planning alone with the Zheng Dynasty in the secret room.
At this time in the palace, Zhou Bian also got up early and came to visit Ling'er who was still lying on the bed with Qiao'er. Zhou Bian didn't expect that shouting his sister would cause such a big movement, maybe it was the Queen Mother who had been depressed for a long time, maybe it was the legendary menopause, but it looked like the age should not have arrived, Zhou Bian shook his head and said that he didn't think in this direction, just mix his own days.
Seeing that His Royal Highness the Prince came to visit in person, Ling'er was busy struggling to get up, Zhou Bian immediately took two steps forward and held it down, Ling'er was full of panic, but after all, he was persuaded by Qiao'er. Looking at Ling'er's current condition, Zhou Bian couldn't help but be afraid for a while, fortunately, he arrived in time yesterday, and the guard didn't fight to the death, otherwise Ling'er wouldn't be seriously injured, judging from the current situation, it should be fine to cultivate for a few days. It was Zhou Bian's behavior that moved the two girls who were used to being slaves.
At this time, slavery has not been completely abolished, the master has the right to dispose of slaves at will, including life, in the eyes of the aristocracy, slaves are like goods, will not be taken seriously, this Zhou Bian naturally knows, but for these two young girls, Zhou Bian is not hard-hearted, and even a little like a sister, or from the perspective of psychological age, they are treated as sisters, naturally they are very loving. As for other subordinates, Zhou Bian also thought about it, but in fact, he still couldn't harden his heart, hey, modern people's thinking is deep-rooted, how can he not treat his subordinates as people?
The three of them were talking casually when they heard a small temple salute and come in. The interest was interrupted, Zhou Bian was a little annoyed, and immediately glared at him with dead eyes, so frightened that the little temple man didn't dare to raise his head. In addition, it must be known that this small temple people often walk around in this courtyard, and they also serve Zhou Bian, when Ling'er called his sister that day, he should be present, and nine times out of ten it is his complaint, so Zhou Bian was eager to transfer him away immediately, but he didn't make a sound when he thought of the majesty of the Queen Mother.
And although the people of the small temple were also afraid of Zhou Bian, they also stubbornly finished the matter, and it turned out that it was the Taibao Lord Shan who came to visit, and he was waiting at the gate of the courtyard.
After hearing this, Zhou Bian couldn't help but be puzzled, I don't know what kind of heart this Shan Shi'an has, what is he looking for Prince Ben? Thinking about it again, anyway, I'm just a kid now, and I don't deal with government affairs, I'm afraid of what will happen to him. So Zhou Bian nodded and asked the Shan family to come to the guest room to meet him.
I heard the coughing sound from afar, and after a while, I saw that Shan walked in with a straight face, walked straight to Zhou Bian and sat down, maybe this person looks like this. After greeting each other, Shan said slowly in his hoarse and deep voice, "Your Highness, you can know that Your Highness's current situation is really worrying. ”
Zhou Bian glanced up at him, but saw Shan Shi's mysterious look but did not continue, obviously trying to lure himself to ask, so that he would have the initiative. The ghost knew what he wanted to do, Zhou Bian didn't have a good impression of this powerful minister, and he didn't want to deal with him at this time, so he lowered his head again and didn't speak.
In fact, after discussing with Zheng Chao early in the morning, Shan felt that the king had no more days to live, so he decided to show favor to Wang Zibian first, and then try to control Wang Zibian. At this time, after thinking about it again, it was precisely the curiosity of an eight-year-old child who calculated that Zhou Bian wanted to force Zhou Bian to lean on his train of thought, but he didn't think that Zhou Bian didn't talk to him, which was unexpected. After waiting for a while, Zhou Bian still didn't open his mouth, Shan was suddenly stupid, thinking that a little broken child still wanted to be patient with me, hum, Shan sighed in his heart, then compare it.
Although Zhou Bian didn't talk, he thought a lot in his head. If you go out of the palace alone, because your body is still small, I am afraid that you will not be able to walk to Yuntai Mountain, and even if you go, you will not have the strength to climb the mountain, how can you think of a reason for the Queen Mother to send someone to escort you. Thinking about it, Zhou Bian didn't think of any way, there was no legitimate reason, after all, he was only eight years old, not to mention that he had just spoken against the Queen Mother. When he was having a headache, there was a ringing in his ears, and it turned out that Shan had spoken.
Shan finally couldn't help it, Zhou Bian couldn't help but feel happy, and only listened to Shan's words, "I heard that the queen mother made the prince's maid beat yesterday, does the prince know why?" ”
Zhou Bian couldn't help but raise his head, but he thought in his heart, isn't it because there is no distinction between respect and inferiority? Seeing Zhou Bian raise his head, Shan couldn't help but be overjoyed, I said that you don't care about this, so he coughed a few more times and said, "It seems that the Queen Mother no longer favors the prince." ”
Discord plan, Zhou Bian's first reaction in his heart is this, whether the Queen Mother likes herself or not, I don't know, but this Shan is definitely uneasy and kind, five thousand years have passed, how many books Zhou Bian has read, can't even see this, that's too underestimated. However, Zhou Bian still decided to follow his words and see what he wanted to do, so he pretended to answer. "Then how can I see it, and what should this prince do, please teach me the Taibao."
Sure enough, Shan laughed when he heard it, thinking that the other party was still a child after all, and he was on the Tao so quickly, but he didn't know who was on whose way. I saw Shan pretending to shake his head, and said slowly, "In fact, everyone knows that the Queen Mother likes the King, but His Royal Highness the Prince is not on the status of the King in the Queen Mother's heart, but in recent days, there have been rumors that the Queen Mother made it clear that she didn't like His Royal Highness the Prince. ”
I don't know where he heard it, maybe he guessed it, but Zhou Bian didn't care, he just wanted to play the trick, so he pretended to be very anxious and leaned over and said, "Then Lord Taibao, please teach Prince Ben no matter what." ”
Shan was happy in his heart, "The prince just believes in his father, and if he is here, he will ensure that the prince is safe." Zhou Bian hurriedly thanked him. The two couldn't help but smile on their faces, but they had their own thoughts. The Shan family wants to marry Wang Zibian first, but Zhou Bian just wants to play a trick, in fact, Zhou Bian doesn't take this Shan family seriously in his heart, I am a college student who has crossed over, who am I afraid of.
But thinking of this, Zhou Bian was depressed again, he was still a college student, and now he can't even get out of this palace gate. Seeing that Zhou Bian's mood was suddenly depressed, the Shan family was busy asking what was going on, but Zhou Bian didn't care, so he told him that he wanted to go out of the palace without the permission of the Queen Mother.
Shan laughed and said, "This matter is simple, it is the time of the autumn harvest, the prince only needs to tell the queen mother, I am willing to go to the mining on behalf of the king to see the harvest." The king can't get out of bed, and the prince was sick and lying in bed in the past, and at this time it's fine, and the queen mother will definitely promise. ”
When Zhou Bian heard this, he found that it was so simple, he didn't know that the landlord at that time still had to go to the countryside to see, although he was a child, but he was a representative of the royal family, everyone was working, he only needed to show up, this matter was very feasible. When asked about Yuntai Mountain again, Shan shook his head, it turned out that Yuntai Mountain was in the territory of Wei at this time, so let's make plans after going out to see.
Zhou Bian hurriedly thanked him. Seeing that the relationship between the two had taken a step forward, and the trip was really a big gain, he left satisfied. And hearing the coughing sound from near to far, Zhou Bian couldn't help but despise it fiercely in his heart, Yu Chen, but what he thinks about is how to return to modern society, so let you go first.
In the afternoon, when Zhou Bian hadn't thought of a statement to see the Queen Mother, he saw the Queen Mother coming. It turned out that after the Taishi had lunch, as soon as he heard that the Shan family had come to see Wang Zibian, he immediately rushed over, and when he came over, he asked the Shan family what was the matter. Zhou Bian said that he was just here to visit, and he went perfunctorily. Fortunately, Taishi didn't doubt it too much, he was just worried that the Shan family would be bad for Wang Zibian, and seeing that Zhou Bian was fine, his heart naturally relaxed. At the end, I only heard the Taishi snort, "This Shan family has not been able to cough well for many years, and he almost died in the early years, but he was saved by a passing miracle doctor, if it weren't for this, how could he be arrogant until now." Sort of, alas! Zhou Bian didn't answer when he heard it, but just remembered it in his heart.
After this matter was said, the Taishi brought another news, the Empress Dowager summoned the Taishi in the morning to discuss the matter of Wang Zibian, and finally decided to let the Taishi personally teach Xi to read. Zhou Bian couldn't help but have a headache, how many years of reading books, did he still continue to read in ancient times?
The Taishi didn't say much, and ordered his entourage to bring in a few boxes of books. Zhou Bian looked at the book brought in with a flat shoulder in surprise, but it was a roll of heavy bamboo slips, Zhou Bian began to think, whether to make paper now, it can be regarded as his contribution to the world.
The Taishi didn't know Zhou Bian's thoughts, shook his head and began to speak, but it was Shangshu, King Wen's speech draft. It's too literary, more classical Chinese than the ancient Tang and Song dynasties, Rao is Zhou Bian is used to the language of the Zhou Dynasty, but he still listens to it drowsily.
In a blink of an eye, it was about five o'clock in modern times, and when Qiao'er came to remind him of dinner, Master Taishi put away the bamboo slips unsatisfied. Zhou Bian got up, thought about it for a long time, and really should make a request, but the Taishi didn't care, nodded and let Zhou Bian say.
"Master Taishi, I hope to go to the harvest on behalf of the king to see the harvest, so as to share the worries of the queen mother. The second is whether you can send a few strong warriors to teach kung fu. The latter is also Zhou Bian's thoughts, he is still the first in kung fu in this world, but I don't know if this noble person can learn martial arts from the next person.
Fortunately, the Taishi nodded without thinking, it seemed that these two requests were very reasonable, but he told him that it must be reported to the Queen Mother for approval, and let Zhou Bian wait for the news.
After the Taishi left, Zhou Bian couldn't help but feel a lot more relaxed, and it seems that the life of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty has also begun to become interesting. Seeing that it is difficult to reach Yuntai Mountain even if you leave the palace, and then think about it, it is difficult to find clues even if you do, so let's grow up in this palace first.
