On the day of arriving at Huo County, the capital of Huo County, the spring rain that had lasted for many days finally stopped, the inventory at the gate of Huo County was very strict, the atmosphere was extremely depressing, and the faces of the people around were not smiling. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The guards at the gate inspected our carriages and horses, and then carefully looked at our faces before letting us go.

The city walls of Huo County are obviously incomparable with Luoyi, and seeing the scene in front of me, I can't help but think of the situation when I arrived in Shang Cai, the capital of Cai State, at that time I was quite lamented by the poverty of Cai State, and I couldn't imagine that the scale of Huo County was not as good as Shang Cai.

Looking at the strength of a country, it can often be concluded from the expressions on the faces of the people that it is difficult to see a smile on the faces of the people of Huo County, and they are dressed very ordinary.

Linglong said softly: "It seems that Huo Guo is indeed as barren as the legend!" ”

I sighed under my breath.

Ge Feng came to my side and said, "Shall we go directly to Sima Qiuzhen's mansion?" ”

I shook my head and said, "Find an inn to settle down first, and then listen to the situation in Huo County!" ”

At this time, a man with a thief's eyebrows and rat-eyed eyes bumped into me head-on, and I immediately sensed that something was wrong, and grabbed him, and the man said angrily: "Bastard, don't you have long eyes when you walk?" ”

Ge Feng twisted his arm and sneered: "Boy, you're just afraid that you have chosen the wrong person!" With a hard twist, the man knelt down in pain and wailed, "Master...... Shoot it lighter! ”

I touched my waist and realized that my purse was gone.

Ge Feng took back the money bag from the man's hand, kicked him in the ass, and carried him a dog shit. I can't help but smile bitterly, I just came to Huo Country, first encountered robbery and blackmail, and then encountered thieves and thefts, it seems that this small national style in the north of the Zhou Dynasty is very poor.

We found a tavern in the center of Huo County and sat down, ordered some food and drinks, and during the meal, a group of heavily armored warriors walked outside the window, escorting two prisoner carts to the city gate.

The shopkeeper smiled bitterly: "It seems that eighty percent of you are from other places, and people will be pushed out every day to ask for beheading, and this avenue in Huo County will soon become Huangquan Road." ”

Fu Qutai took a sip of wine and said in a low voice: "I have been to many places with my boss, and this is the first time I have come to such a murderous country. ”

As soon as he said this, even I felt the smell of blood wafting in the air, hastily finished lunch, got up and said, "Forget it, let's go directly to Sima Mansion to see how the situation in this country has deteriorated." ”

Sima Qiuzhen's mansion is located on the north side of Huo County, although Huo Guo is poor, but judging from his tall door wall, his mansion should be not bad.

Fu Qutai looked at the bronze gate shining in the sun, and couldn't help but whisper: "This person must be a corrupt official!" ”

I couldn't help laughing: "After all, he is a national Sima, and the place where he lives is too shabby, and he can't get by on face." ”

Ge Feng said: "Everyone will have selfishness, if this selfishness is too big, it is called greed, but if you can control greed within a certain range and do more things that are beneficial to the country, you can also be regarded as a good official!" ”

I patted Ge Feng's shoulder with deep sympathy and said, "Big brother's insights are really incisive!" ”

"My humble opinion makes my brother laugh!"

At this time, the two warriors in front of Sima's mansion had noticed our presence, and one of them walked over to us and said respectfully, "Dare to ask how many of you are here to find Lord Sima?" ”

I didn't expect the guards on Sima Qiu's town to be so polite, so I smiled and said, "Yes, my surname is Ji, and I came from afar to visit Master Sima!" ”

When the warrior heard that my surname was Ji, the expression on his face became even more respectful: "Master Ji, Master Sima is resting in the study, and I will take you in to meet him." ”

I nodded, and the group followed the warrior into Sima Qiuzhen's mansion.

Entering the door is a small garden, with a delicate layout and lush flowers, even compared to my house in Luoyi, which is enough to see that this Sima Qiuzhen is very good at enjoying life.

Walking along the winding corridor to the backyard study, the warrior motioned for us to wait in front of the door for a while, and came to the door and said respectfully: "Lord Sima, there is a Ji Gongzi from out of town who wants to see you!" ”

The door slowly opened, and a man about fifty years old walked out of the study slowly, he was wearing a kudzu yellow robe, his hair was a little thin, his forehead was even larger, his eyes were deep-set, his eyebrows were typical figure-eight eyebrows, his thin lips were tightly pursed together, and his expression was quite serious, and there was no smile in sight.

I secretly said in my heart: "This Huo Guosima doesn't look very good!" But there was no expression on his face, and he smiled: "Master Sima, I took the liberty to come here, I don't know if it disturbed your retreat?" "I handed Qiu Zhen the silk scarf with the seal in my hand.

Sima Qiuzhen's eyes stared at the vermilion mark for a long time, his eyes showed excitement, and it took a long time before he came back to his senses, nodded heavily, and said, "Childe, please come in!" ”

I made a look, motioned to Linglong Gefeng and the others to wait for me outside, and followed Sima Qiuzhen into the study alone.

Sima Qiuzhen closed the door of the study and made a gesture to kneel down to me, I was prepared for this, and hurriedly reached out to support his arms and said, "Master Sima, how can this be done!" ”

Sima Qiu Zhen didn't mean to kneel down to me, but actually stood up with my support: "Childe, you made the old minister wait so hard!" ”

I sighed and said, "I wanted to come here for a long time, but many things happened on the way, so I didn't come to Huo County until today. ”

Sima Qiuzhen said: "I heard that Gongzi went to Luoyi halfway? "This old guy is really well-informed.

I nodded and said, "Don't hide it, I did go to Luoyi, and I was accepted as a righteous son by the grace of the Son of Heaven." ”

Sima Qiuzhen didn't know that I had become Zhou Tianzi's godson, and he was obviously stunned for a moment, which proved what Li Nuo said, he just wanted to find a tool to deal with Ji Mu, and use me to temporarily stabilize the situation in Huo Guo, and when everything is calmed down, he will discard me like a cheat.

Sima Qiu Zhen deserved to be an old traitor, and after a short period of stunnedness, a smile appeared on his face again: "Okay, it's really a great thing, so that the son's ascension to the throne of Huo Guo is even more justified." ”

I made my position clear in a timely manner and said: "I don't have any interest in the throne of Huo Guo at all, all I care about is not letting Ji Mu achieve his wish, it was he who killed my mother with his own hands, and I want to make him pay a heavy price!" "If you want Sima Qiuzhen to relax her guard against me, you must play the role of a hot-blooded young man in front of him, and make him feel that the real purpose of my visit this time is revenge and not the throne.

Sima Qiuzhen sighed and said, "Childe, if you want to ascend to the throne of Huo, you can't always think about hatred in your heart. ”

I looked at Sima Qiu Zhen with some excitement and said, "You want me to ascend to the throne, unless you help me kill Ji Mu!" ”

He coughed dryly and said: "If Gongzi becomes the king of Huo State, I will be your courtier, and the people will be your people, and your hatred will be my hatred, that is, the hatred of the entire Huo country, wouldn't it be easy to deal with Ji Mu when the time comes?" He took a breath and said: "Childe, the situation in Huo Guo is extremely complicated, the enemy you are facing is not only Ji Mu, the first thing we need to do is to get rid of Ji Yue's impostor!" ”

"Who is Ji Yue?"

Sima Qiuzhen pondered for a moment before saying: "Childe, I have already prepared a place for you to live, settle down first, Ji Yue is just a waste, I will explain it to you in detail when I go back." ”

Sima Qiu Zhen didn't seem to want to immediately expose my identity to the subjects of Huo State, and the residence he prepared for me was twenty miles north of Huo County, which was a vast pasture, which used to be a temporary pasture for Bai Di merchant Ze to leave and sell horses to the Central Plains, and later because of the turbulent situation in Huo State, the domestic economy continued to decline, Ze Lili abandoned here, and the focus of business was on the Jin State, and this ranch was purchased by Sima Qiu Town at a low price.

Qiu Zhen didn't personally send me to the ranch, but sent six of his samurai to escort the four of us all the way to the ranch. It can be seen that he did not pay attention to my temporary shield.

In the center of the ranch there is an exotic mansion, which was also left by Bai Di merchant Ze Li, the mansion has been renovated, and Qiu Zhen has sent ten beautiful maids to take care of my living and eating. These six samurai also stayed with me, in the name of keeping me safe, and in fact monitoring my every move in Hogun.

After settling down, Linglong and I came to the ranch for a stroll, looking at the green ocean of grassland in front of us, Linglong couldn't help but excitedly turn around the grass lightly, the blue robe bloomed like flowers in the wind, even if she was wearing men's clothes, she still couldn't hide her graceful figure and moving style.

Looking at Linglong's extremely innocent face, I smiled knowingly: "Do you like it here?" ”

Linglong nodded lightly: "I don't have the opportunity to see such a magnificent scene in Yue Country!" ”
