Chapter 51: Yangquan Oath

The princes from all walks of life took their seats, and Su Hu led a man with a majestic posture to the son. Su Hu pointed at the man and smiled at Ziqi: "Hao Chenghou, you haven't seen this young master yet." However, you have a deep connection, do you know who he is? ”

The man's eyes were full of deep meaning and scorching heat.

Ziqi shook his head inexplicably, "Jizhou Hou, you are embarrassed for me, I really can't guess." ”

Su Hu smiled even more, "Then I won't spare the bend, this is the young son of the old marquis of Youguo, the young son of Youzhao." It should be Hao Chenghou's uncle, but you haven't met yet. ”

The child was stunned, Yu Zhao was in his thirties, and he had a short beard under his chin. grabbed the sub-period, the corners of his mouth trembled and tears were in his eyes, and he stared at the sub-period's face and looked at it again and again. Ziqi hurriedly bowed down, "Ziqi has seen my uncle!" ”

You Zhao hurriedly hugged him, "Okay, good, I didn't expect you and I to meet here." Your grandfather often misses your mother and son, and the Marquis of Jizhou has already told me about it, only to know that your mother has passed away! You Zhao said, wiping the corners of his eyes.

Cheng Hou Ying Ji is sitting at the same table as Fei Lian, they are originally of the same clan and belong to the Ying clan. Its country is adjacent to Youguo, it was originally the former capital of Yin Shang, and later the first king Pangeng moved the capital to Yin, so the capital Shang was given to the Ying family.

Ying Ji stood up and said: "You Zhao, you should be happy to get together, Hao Cheng is young and promising, and your You clan is fortunate to be honored!" "Listening to the tone, Yingji should be older than Yu Zhao's generation. You Zhao listened, and hurriedly pulled Ziqi to sit at the same table.

Ziqi sat down and asked, "Uncle, why didn't you come to Chaoge and arrived in Jizhou first?" ”

Ying Ji pointed at Ying Ji and said, "I originally planned to go to Chaoge." Later, halfway to meet Xiangcheng Hou, he said that the king has an order, ordered Jizhou Hou to stand by and wait for you to come to the teacher, we thought, first to Chaoge will be willing to seek far, it is better to come directly to Jizhou to wait for you. We have sent for the king, but have you not received any news? ”

Ziqi thought for a while, "I guess I missed it halfway, why didn't my grandfather come?" ”

You Zhao smiled: "Your grandfather fell ill a year ago, and his body has not fully recovered, so he asked me to lead 10,000 troops to the battle. If he knew that you were the one who led the Northern Expedition, did you think he wouldn't come? ”

Ziqi said: "I should have gone to Youguo to visit his old man's home, but I didn't think that there have been many troubles in the past two years, first to Xiqi, then to the death of my father, and to train in Xigu, but I couldn't make the trip." After the child finished speaking, he felt blushing.

You Zhao said: "The eldest husband should be based on the establishment of a career, and you are doing the right thing." When the Northern Expedition triumphantly returns to the dynasty, you and I will return to the country together, and your grandfather may be so happy to see you! ”

Ziqi nodded hurriedly and asked, "Uncle, how many soldiers and horses will Xiangcheng Hou lead to come?" ”

You Zhao said: "The country of Amyo is the second largest vassal state in the east, and this time the city of Amaki also brought 10,000 horses. ”

Ziqi was secretly happy in his heart, now Jizhou will be a teacher, there are fourteen princes, and there are 130,000 people, and the capital is big enough.

Su Hu is a very capable person, and he is very attentive to entertaining all the princes. Not only is the wine and food rich, but also tells everyone that beautiful maids are also prepared for the princes.

In the slave social system of the Yin Shang era, the essence of slaves was objects. The princes from all walks of life were naturally happy, and that night, Ziqi lived in the post house, and Lai'er was dressed in military uniform and accompanied Ziqi.

Liao really spent a lot of time, and he was willing to spend money, and he really used money. The golden bronze helmet on Lai'er's head is lighter than the ordinary helmet, and the patterns on both sides are hollow chrysanthemum patterns, which greatly reduces the weight, and the fiery red helmet tassels on the top are more beautiful. The body is made of rhino leather armor, and it is also covered with bronze leaves for shoulder and chest guards. The waist guard is densely covered with copper nails, and the armor is woven with deer tendons, which looks more noble.

The bronze knife hanging from her waist was designed by Liao more according to the child period, tailor-made for Lai'er. Based on the Yanling knife, some arcs are added, which is more conducive to chopping. The blade is long and narrow, and there are two deep blood grooves on both sides, which are convenient for direct stabs. Lightweight and sharp, Lyle has loved it since the day she got it.

None of the sergeants and post guards saw that Lai'er was a girl, only that Hao Chenghou had a slender and handsome guard by his side.

You Zhao chatted with the sub-period during the day, and came over to talk with the sub-period at night. The two of them were talking about being elated, when the post man knocked on the door and came in, and said rudely to Ziqi: "Qiqi Hou Ye, there is a girl outside the door, it seems to be called Daji, saying that it was given to Hou Ye by Su Hou Ye of Jizhou!" ”

"Daji? Could it be that Su Daji, the famous woman in ancient and modern times, the first beauty of Yin Shang, this is a legend that subverted the six hundred years of Yin Shang's social trouble, isn't it Su Hu's daughter, how did she become a slave girl, is history a joke again? ”

He was suspicious for a long time, he really wanted to call in to see and understand, if he received it, wouldn't it avoid the catastrophe of Yin Shang.

As soon as he was about to speak, he saw Layle standing beside him, his eyes cut like a knife. smiled helplessly, "That's it, you let her go back and forth from where, she was going to go to war, and she couldn't take her female dependents." The kindness of the Marquis of Jizhou was appreciated by Ben Hou. ”

After that, he winked at Lei'er, meaning that I was pure, and there were no women around me. Lyle couldn't laugh, and the postman turned away.

You Zhao asked Ziqi about Princess You's life, and Ziqi told You Zhao about the encirclement and suppression of Heifeng Village. You Zhao sighed with emotion, and the two nephews and uncles talked about candles late at night before they dispersed.

Lai'er sent Yu Zhao away with Zi Qi, turned around and hurriedly covered the door, took off her helmet, and her long hair poured down, "I'm tired!" ”

Ziqi smiled: "Let you go to rest, but you don't want to, who is to blame?" ”

Lai'er said while removing his armor: "I am your guard, it's strange if I don't accompany you and don't let others see through it!" Seeing that there was only one bed in the room, Zi expected to ask, "Do you sleep in a bed, or do I sleep in a bed?" ”

Lai'er sat down on the edge of the bed and grinned, "Of course I sleep in the bed!" Ziqi shook his head, so he had to pull the seat to the side of the bed, and as soon as he took off his armor, Lai'er said angrily: "You really want to sleep on the floor, I won't eat you, and I will live like before!" ”

Ziqi smiled evilly, "I'm afraid I won't be able to control it, and you will be innocent!" ”

"You dare?" Lyle grabbed Ziji's ear. Ziqi screamed in pain, "Let go, I'll tease you!" ”

Ryle snorted, and Kimono turned away. The child also slept outside with clothes, and suddenly felt that his sentiment was sublimated, and he had known Lai'er for more than two years, although they all had feelings for each other, and often slept together like this, but they always did not commit any offences in autumn.

It's not that he's afraid of Lai'er, although Lai'er is sometimes a little rude, but the little princess is beautiful, and she has a lot of kung fu, and she is more respectful and loving in her childhood. There is also a small secret, which is that the child was a slight masochist in his previous life. Mei Heng and Xiannon are as docile as sheep, but fortunately, it is a lot more fun to have Lai'er.

Thinking about it, Ziqi laughed out loud.

Lai'er turned around, "Bai Ganzi, what are you snickering at?" ”

Ziqi quickly shut up, "It's okay, go to sleep!" ”

Lai'er put her arm on Ziji's chest and pinched his face with her hand, "If you laugh again, I'll pinch you to death!" ”

Ziqi hurriedly closed his eyes, and after a while, he looked for Granny Meng.

In the early morning of the next day, Ziqi and the princes commanded the three armies to pull out the camp and march westward. As the saying goes, when there are 10,000 soldiers, there is no boundary; The number of soldiers reached 100,000, tearing the ground to the sky. The forward army of the sub-period has been out for ten miles, and the rear army has not yet left Jizhou.

The soldiers marched for two whole days, arrived at Yangquan, which is the Yang Spring of later generations, because there are five springs here, the water flows continuously all the year round, and it does not dry up in winter and summer, so it is named Yangquan. It's a thousand miles of wilderness, and it's a good place to be ranked. The west out of Yangquan is not the boundary of Jizhou, and the sub-period let the Flying Tiger Army stop and rest, waiting for the follow-up division.

The first Chinese army to arrive was the Praetorian Guard Battalion led by Li Jiao and Fei Lian father and son, followed by Shu Qi leading the Lone Bamboo Army. Ziqi hurriedly stepped forward, "Uncle Wang has worked hard!" Shu Qi said with a smile: "The child is polite, it is the duty of my generation to resist foreign nationals to rejuvenate the country and secure the country, why work hard!" ”

Ziqi looked up and saw that the Lone Bamboo Army had a neat appearance, a black flag and black uniform, bright swords and guns, and couldn't help but fight in secret, and it was indeed the ace army of the largest vassal state in the East. Ziqi remembered that this backbone lone bamboo army fought until the Spring and Autumn Period, and did not descend to Zhou. Becoming a foreign country of the Zhou Dynasty, this strong team has made great contributions.

Then came the Youguo Army led by You Zhao and the Jizhou Army led by Su Hu, although the Youguo Army was not as neat as the Lone Bamboo Army, it was also strong and magnificent.

In contrast, the Jizhou army was much worse, all of them were gray-headed and sweaty, and their morale was low as if frost had beaten them. It can be seen that although the Marquis of Jizhou is tactful, he really has no way to govern the army.

Then, the Amaki army led by Hou Yingji also arrived. Ziqi thinks this army is quite ridiculous, not that the army is not good. The soldiers of this army are all tall and strong, and they have not seen the enemy yet, so they are all glaring and accumulating their strength, which is worthy of being the ancestors of the Great Qin people, and genetic factors are very important.

When the horses arrived, the army array was boundless, and all the princes and commanders stood in front of the line.

Ziqi boarded a boulder, raised his arms and exhaled, and the military array below immediately fell silent. Lai'er stood behind Ziqi with Li Jiao with the handle of the knife, Ziqi cleared his throat, complaining that there was no microphone and was very sad, so he had to tear his voice open.

"Lang Huaxia, the descendants of Xuanyuan, have lived in the land of Kyushu for generations! The chief of the ghost people, the blue-eyed child, migrated to the northern cold land, drank blood, and was the state of birds and beasts. Raise troops for no reason and commit my Haocheng. Everywhere he went, he burned, killed, looted, and mourned all over the wilderness.

How can we sit idly by? ”

The military formation in front of his feet raised his arms and shouted in unison: "Kill!" Kill! Kill! The flash flood broke out, and the military formation several miles behind couldn't hear what was said in front at all, and they also shouted with the front army, "Kill!" Kill! Kill! ”

Ziqi continued to shout: "The beautiful rivers and mountains of the Central Plains were originally the holy land of Yanhuang and the happy land of China, but in today's domain, the enemy chieftain is allowed to trample on it? Today, we are ordered by the great king Emperor Xin to raise an army to defeat the thieves. The sub-period is not talented, and King Lai appreciates it, and he commands the 130,000 Northern Expedition ghosts. From now on, the child is willing to live and die with everyone, swear to die and the ghost party will not share the sky, and those who offend me in Huaxia will be punished even if they are far away! ”

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

Standing behind Zi Qi, Lai'er suddenly felt that this waiter, who usually had a hippie and smiling face, suddenly became taller, and the spirit of a king was sharp! A pretty face flushed, and she couldn't help but raise her hand and clap it twice. Seeing that Li Jiao turned his head to look at her, he hurriedly stuck out his tongue and lowered his hands, Li Jiao silently snickered.

Ziqi took out the talisman from his arms, held it high in his hand, and shouted, "All military camps listen to my orders!" Where is Hou Suhu in Jizhou? ”

Su Hu bowed down and responded: "This is here!" ”

Ziqi shouted loudly: "I order you to take the military horses of your headquarters, open the grain road from Yangquan to the south, and receive Fei Zhong's military rations. ”

Jizhou Hou Su bowed down and responded: "I am waiting to obey the order!" With that, he took his headquarters and horses to the south.

Ziqi continued to shout: "Where is the city waiting to win? ”

Seeing that the soldier talisman was in hand, how could he dare to rely on the old and sell the old, so he hurriedly bowed down and responded: "Win Ji is here!" ”

It was rare for the child to smile, "The old man in the city should be strong, and he hopes that the capable will work hard." I order you to command the headquarters of the Xiancheng Army, together with the Guzhu Army, the Licheng Army, the Youguo Army, and the Gongcheng Army, the five military horses are all at your disposal. Out of Yangquan along the left road to the west, and the right wing of the Hou Department echoed left and right, arrived at the north bank of the Xiao River, cut off the ghost defenders back to the Hao Cheng Department, see one to kill one, see a pair to kill a pair, and strive to annihilate all, after the victory, wave the division to the north, and the Hou Hou Department to meet the division, recover Hao Cheng. As expected, I will ask for credit for you waiting in front of the king. ”

Ying Ji replied with a smile: "Hao Chenghou rest assured, Ying Ji will not miss the military order!" ”

Ziqi smiled and nodded, "Okay, the old marquis is on the way!" ”

Yingji turned around and pointed out the headquarters and headed southwest.

Ziqi looked down, "The rest of the troops are the Chinese army, led by Fei Lian, and they follow the vanguard army of this Hou Department to the west and set off!" ”

After speaking, he jumped off the boulder and turned over to the black wind, and led the Flying Tiger Army with Li Jiao to the west out of Yangquan.

After a whole day of walking, the road became more and more difficult to walk.

Before dark, there is a ditch between two mountains in front, and the bottom of the ditch is very wide, and there is a stream flowing out. He jumped up the hill and looked around, took out the sketch from his arms and looked at it, and estimated that this should be the Da Nangou in the future. But at this time, it is still barren and uninhabited!

When the meal was served, Lai'er actually brought a reed of cooked monkey head to Zi Period, and the lion's mane mushroom is a good thing! A good lion's mane mushroom is not rotten, moldy, or moth-eaten. It can nourish blood and invigorate qi, and can be used for neurasthenia, dizziness, palpitations, insomnia, fatigue, and loss of qi and blood. Later generations regarded it as the first of the four famous dishes, and it is difficult to find wild ones, and most of them are artificially cultivated.

Ziqi hurriedly asked, "Where did you get it?" ”

Lai'er said proudly, "Before it gets dark, I'll go and find it on the mountain next to me." "How can you run around alone, how dangerous is it?" ”

Lai'er pursed her lips and said angrily: "I saw that you were too tired, so I brought you to make up for it, I don't know the hearts of good people!" ”

Seeing that she was really angry, Ziqi hurriedly smiled, "I don't mean to blame you, you think, the mountains here are high and the forests are dense, what should I do if I encounter tigers and leopards?" I appreciate your kindness, don't run around in the future, be obedient! ”

Lai'er nodded vigorously, seeing that she was eating with relish, she was also complacent.

The child period also let her share the food, so they rested together.

[Tsing Yi says in this chapter]

Bo Yi Shuqi is a brother and a native of the lonely bamboo country. Lone Bamboo Country, also known as "Yao Bamboo", "Yao" is a bronze wine vessel, and "Bamboo" is a bamboo slip used to remember things. With the same surname as Yin Shang, there are texts that can be examined, and there are records of the first seven generations of monarchs, and there is no evidence and no examination since then.

Bo Yi Shu Qi is the last generation of businessmen, and both of them want to give up the monarch to their brothers, so they run away one after another. First do business, and then wander to Xiqi without descending to Zhou, to prevent King Wu from conquering. Kneeling down to stop the head of the horse and asking: "If my father dies and is not buried, he will fight and fight, can it be described as filial piety?" Killing the king with a minister can be described as benevolent? "After Ji Fajian Zhou, the two starved to death in Shouyang Mountain without eating Zhou rice.

Later generations gave high praise to the brothers, and the famous writer Han Yu did "Ode to Boyi", in which he praised Boyi Shuqi at the same time, he scolded Weizi for opening up the rebellious ministers and thieves!

Bo Yi is the eldest brother, named Mo Yun, Yi is a nickname; Shu Qi is the third brother, named Mo Zhi, Qi is the nickname, both of them are well-known sages in the past dynasties, so they do not change their names in the book.

According to the rules of naming the ancients in China, the eldest son is uncle, the second son is Zhong, and the third son is uncle. The one who was left behind as the monarch of the Lone Bamboo Country should be the second brother, and the name should be Zhong X. Although King Wu destroyed Shang, the Lone Bamboo Kingdom was still there, and the descendants of the Lone Bamboo Kingdom and Boyi Shuqi existed until the Spring and Autumn Period, and were destroyed by Jiang Ziya's descendant Qi Huangong.

The backbone of the lonely bamboo people went away, and later wrote that the monarch of the lonely bamboo country, Tsing Yi did not dare to go to a name at will like a small person, for fear of insulting the sages, so the later text is called the lonely bamboo king.

In addition, according to legend, as early as 3,000 years ago in the Shang Dynasty, some people have picked lion's mane mushrooms to eat.

It is hereby clarified.
