Chapter 45 Saving the Country

The two armies retreated, the tense border returned to normal, as if nothing had happened, the people of Taocheng still had money to eat, no money to be hungry, passing by merchants still stopped supplies, and then drove into the distance. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the government office, Zhao Zheng was lying leisurely on the lazy chair, closing his eyes and waiting for Meng Wu and Wei Lian, who were playing chess in the pavilion, to decide the winner.

"I heard that the envoys of King Zhou have arrived in Xinzheng, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the name of King Zheng becomes history."

There is no black and white chess game, there are nine vertical and horizontal roads on the left and right, and the middle crosses the nine-square grid, which is actually the chess of later generations. Both are novices, but they both have a wide range of knowledge and are familiar with military affairs, and they are difficult to solve.

Wei Lian jumped off his horse, exchanged his son for a cannon of Mengwu, and said: "The general wants to persuade the lord to enter Qin? ”

"However, the abolition of the princes' own family and national affairs, this time Zhao Zheng is doing it with the strength of one person, but I am afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future." He turned around and dropped a cart and smashed into the hinterland of Wei Lian.

"General", Brother Meng has taken one more step at most, and he has already won in the next.

Meng Wu smacked his lips and smiled: "Mr. is really powerful, but Meng hasn't lost yet." "Mengwu lost a car in exchange for the safety of the veteran.

How could Wei Lian let him get his wish, and the pawn crossed the river and pressed towards the handsome tent step by step.

"General", Meng Wu deliberately fell into the eyes of each other, Wei Lian had to give up the pawn and eat his cannon, but the two generals folded in half, and it was a draw.

"The Mengjia has been admiring the door for generations."

"Mr. has no last resort, and Meng Mou agreed."

After that, the two laughed and left the pavilion.

Zhao Zheng lay on the lazy chair and turned over, complaining: "Play chess, play chess, whatever you want, and make such a loud noise, it woke me up." ”

Wei Lian didn't mind, sat straight in front of Zhao Zheng, poured out a glass of fine wine and said, "Well, it's so cool, the fruit wine is still cold and delicious." ”

After drinking, he was not happy, and he filled another glass, and raised a glass to invite Mengwu to drink. The latter took it, smacking his lips and exhaling painfully, but he still felt that the strength was not good.

"Save some drink, there are not many ice stones left, and if you buy it again, you have to go back to Gucheng and transport it from Daijun."

The reason why you can still drink chilled fruit wine in August when the heat is not gone is because of the saltpeter in the water. Saltpeter can be used as gunpowder, but few people in the world know about it, but it has been found to have an icing effect, and it is often stored by wealthy families in the south.

Zhao Zheng didn't know at first that with such a treasure, the earth-shaking thunder was not a collector's item, but a real integration of fire and air. It wasn't until Wei Ding came over and invited him to drink that he knew that saltpeter had already come out and was called ice stone.

Ice stone mines are rare, and they can only be mined near the desert wasteland, and who knows that there is a big mine in Dai County. Zhao Zheng dared to boast at the auction that he would produce a thousand earth-shattering thunders per month, but in fact, with the skilled workers of Zhao Zheng's workshop, a monthly output of two thousand is not a problem.

"The ice stones of Daijun have been shipped, and it is estimated that the first batch has arrived in Gucheng." Wei Lian heard it and replied in a low voice.

Meng Wu's face was full of puzzlement, the ice stone is a luxurious thing of the family, and Zhao Zheng wants this kind of thing to do. Do you want to sell chilled fruit wine, King Yan has already broken with him, and he can tolerate him to do business.

"Meng Wu has a saying, I hope Brother Zhao will do it himself, don't be confused by the comfort in front of you, think about the back road as soon as possible, and save your life is the most important thing. And Yan Country is dangerous, so you still follow me into ......"

"I didn't pay attention for a while, it's time for dinner, let's go, Brother Meng, I'll personally cook and entertain you today."

Meng Wu's words were interrupted, knowing that Zhao Zheng was desperate, but he still wanted him to be safe. After all, his son still needs Zhao Zheng's healing, not to mention that Meng Qian has been married by the King of Qin.

"Well, I still can't tell him. Zhao Zheng vomited blood because of the pain of losing his wife, and now he came to stimulate him again, wouldn't it be unjust. Meng Wu's honest temperament made him shut up again and didn't talk about Meng Qian, but Meng Qian had already arrived in Gucheng, and Zhao Zheng would know sooner or later.

"I'm so stupid", the more Meng Wu thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and he couldn't help blurting out.

Zhao Zheng stopped and asked, "What did Brother Meng say, why did it stop abruptly?" Meng Wu blushed and told him to say that he was being used in the Qin State, and it was better to kill him, but he couldn't explain it if he didn't say it, and he was in a dilemma at the moment, and he was so anxious that he turned around.

Wei Lian seemed to understand his intentions, and said: "Don't worry, my lord, Brother Meng is trying to persuade you to enter Qin, and he estimates that his friends don't want to see you suffer in Yan Kingdom, and it is not good to force you to change your mind, so he is in a dilemma." ”

"It's just a brain remedial star", Meng Wu blushed and nodded vigorously, his eyes were full of gratitude to Wei Xian, and his affectionate eyes were even more bottomless than the sea.

"I smell the smell of rice, I can't stand the hunger", Wei Lian was stared at in a panic, and suddenly remembered what Zhao Zheng said about "Longyang's fetish", and suddenly felt that the chrysanthemum was in a hurry and fled.

"Meng Tian has arrived in Gucheng, rest assured, I will leave for return soon." At the dinner table, Meng Wu started chatting about Meng Tian's illness and gradually turned to Zhao Zheng's marriage.

"Brother and sister passed away, Meng Wu is deeply unfortunate, but Brother Zhao, you want to mourn and change, you don't want to be lonely and widowed for a lifetime, so that your brother and sister are not at ease?"

Talking about the Yiren, Zhao Zheng showed a wry smile, Chun Niang disappeared in Xianrendu, and the Zhou Dynasty army searched for no results, but he was afraid that there would be more luck and less luck. Speaking of Ling Zeliang, there is also a person in his heart, and that beautiful shadow is the scenery that he can't erase in his heart.

In distress in the Rocky Valley, Zheng Sleeve was not in a hurry, and calmly commanded the enemy to retreat; Yi Shuiru's home opened, and she was ungrateful and excluded herself; The spring outing is absurd, and Zheng Sleeve retains the bottom line in the end. This time Zheng Guo was in danger, and he always felt that it was not over, so he still thought that she would appear.

"What tricks are you going to use this time?"

Zhao Zheng held his cheeks, a smile welled up at the corner of his mouth, looking at the south, stupid.

"There's a door!" Meng Wu's heart fell into a big stone, Zhao Zheng finally figured it out, then his sister will soon have a play, and he will not become the laughing stock of the Qin State and be beaten by Meng Fu into another laughing stock of the Qin State.

Following Zhao Zheng's gaze, passing through the river town, the Xinzheng Palace was in chaos at this time. King Zheng's proud Praetorian Guard was absorbed by the Zhou Dynasty, and he had returned to Luoyi for training, and the servants in the palace learned of King Zheng's misfortune, and they no longer had the respect they had in the past, but they could fill their pockets with energy, thinking that they would have money to retire after leaving the palace.

In the Qinzheng Palace, Zheng Po was wearing a cloak of hair, just like his father sitting on the jade steps, drinking the strongest green ant wine without taking a sip.

"Wealth is like floating clouds, princes are like lackeys, looking up to the sky and sighing...... I'm drinking."

The sad poetry was instantly replaced by frustration, Zheng Po looked around, the hall was empty, it was not as warm as he thought, people's hearts were scattered, there were palace people running at the door, but no one came in to listen to his complaints. It turns out that he, the king, is just someone else's puppet, saying that there is, and saying that there is not, there is not.

"Squeak"

The half-open door of the palace was completely opened, and Zheng stepped in without makeup, just like a fairy out of the dust, descending to the world to transform the world.

She took out a scroll of brocade silk, lightly opened her lips and read: "Following the edict of King Wu of Heaven: the widow inherits the ancestral will, inherits the royal road, and restores the Zheng State in the ruins...... Therefore, obeying the will of the people, inheriting the will of heaven, on August 15, Zheng Wangpo was deposed, and the people of Zheng Guo were appeased. ”

After listening to the edict quietly, Zheng Po had no surprise, and he already knew from the moment he returned to Xinzheng that he was the king and was abolished. And because of a small civilian.

Zheng Sleeve walked over slowly, put down the edict and said: "Brother Wang should be dressed to receive the edict, and now you are still the king of Zheng State." ”

"The king of bullshit, I'm just a puppet, and now that Ji Yan doesn't use it, throw me in the garbage."

"But" Zheng Po groaned and slowly stood up, walked up to Zheng Sleeve, suddenly grabbed her neck and said: "You slut is qualified to laugh at this king, even if I am garbage, I am a hundred times more noble than you." ”

Zheng Sleeve didn't expect this, her fair neck was instantly dyed red, and she stammered: "You... Do you want to continue to be king, I can help you. ”

Zheng Po has gone crazy, in Taocheng, he is the king of a country, succumbing to Zhao Zheng, mentally devastated, pinching Zheng sleeves at this time, only to feel the pleasure of a word that determines life and death.

"Killed... I, Zhao Zhenghui... will avenge me..."

"What are you, Zhao Zheng and others will also look at you......" Suddenly he stopped talking, and suddenly he thought that Zhao Zheng really valued Zheng Sleeve. The business in Yixian County was completely handed over to Zheng Sleeve to take care of, and he only collected profits on schedule.

"Can you really convince Zhao Zheng?"

"Ahem~"

Zheng sleeve covered his neck, restrained the monstrous killing intent, and said: "Naturally, we are in love in Yixian, but it is difficult for him to marry the princess early, and now the princess is missing, life and death are unknown, and I am the only woman in his heart." ”

Zheng Po's decadent face rose with joy, and he held Zheng Sleeve's soft hand and said "affectionately": "Sister Sleeve, as long as you can keep Zheng Guo, you can give you whatever widow you want, and the widow can release your father now, as well as your branch clan elders." ”

"No need", Zheng Sleeve's pretty face was frosty, and he said without anger: "Just release my father, I don't want those old guys to live, and so do the old guys in your main lineage." ”

"Kill, kill, kill, kill them all, as long as you please. Now there are only seven days left until August 15, you hurry up and set off, if it is too late, I am afraid that Zhao Zheng will return to Yan. ”

In the past, Zhao Zheng occupied Taocheng, and he had to scold hundreds of sentences every day in his heart, but today he wants Zhao Zheng to stay. Zheng Po couldn't help but be disappointed, and then took two steps back, he was still a puppet, and leaving the throne was also for a commoner to let go.

"Hear me, let's set out, and let our king have a good rest."

Zheng Sleeve flicked his sleeves, like an uncrowned king walking out of the main hall, and the people in the scattered palace outside the door had already gathered together, bowing their heads and standing on both sides.

The man in Tsing Yi, who was a little treacherous in his martial arts, seemed to have an injury to his left leg, and walked over with a limp and said, "Young master, the convoy has been prepared and can leave at any time." ”

Zheng sleeve bowed slightly, and a team of soldiers rushed out and escorted her to board the carriage, and the military uniform was the Yin Eighth Division.

"Zheng Gao."

The man in Tsing Yi was the missing Zheng Gao, he was injured and escaped, and he originally wanted to return to the command of Yanchunjun, but when he thought of the Wuyang War, he couldn't help hating this person. After several turns, he returned to Zheng's house and quietly gathered strength for Zheng Sleeve.

The edict of the Son of Heaven has been issued, although it has not been made public, but it is already known to everyone. Zheng Sleeve's keen sense of smell was shown at this moment, she first found Ji Zhan, said that she would leave Zheng Guo with benefits, and bluntly said that she was in love with Zhao Zheng, so she was escorted by Yin Eighth Division.

But Zhao Zheng carried the power of earth-shattering thunder, Ji Zhan did not dare to take risks, he believed that Zhao Zheng would not mind an alliance with Chu Man, who was despised by the Central Plains countries. So he only promised Zheng Sleeve, and Zhao Zheng gave up destroying Zheng, so he withdrew the edict.

The survival of a country, the edict of the Son of Heaven, at this time, is all determined by Zhao Zheng's intentions, and only a few people in the world have done it.

"My Zheng sleeve's man really has the qualifications of a king."

Facing the moonlight, she said silently.

Zhao Zheng of Taocheng had just fallen asleep at this time, and suddenly a sneeze woke him up, "Who is scolding me, and they won't even let me sleep in peace." ”

Turning over and lying down, he hugged Zheng Sleeve in his dream.
