Chapter 157: History of the Spring and Autumn War (6)
Ten days later, they saw the forty-nine cities of Tianyan. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info traveled in the past five years, traveled all over the country, but did not come to the Qin country, just because all the countries said that the Qin people were vicious and cruel, and behaved like wild beasts, plus the king of Qin was defeating Chu, the reason was his sister, Xiao Wuji was afraid that they would appear here, what if they were discovered, as for the possibility that the king of Qin was not in the palace but on the battlefield, Xiao Wuji did not think about it at all.
Tianyan Forty-Nine Cities, this is the first thing in the world that shocked Xiao Wuji. Before, Xiao Wuji thought that the forty-nine cities of Tianyan were just names, but when he saw it, he was convinced that there were indeed forty-nine cities. The surrounding Qin soldiers introduced: the big city in the center, called Yujing, the scale of this city itself is comparable to the old capital of Qin, Xianyang City, Yujing is divided into seventy-two squares, surrounded by forty-eight acropolises in an orderly manner, named after the stars, six squares in each city, adding up to exactly three hundred and sixty numbers. The casting of the forty-nine cities of Tianyan lasted for a long time, and when Yingzong Ke Fang died, the casting was still not completed.
Most of the accompanying soldiers began to march out of the garrison, and only a hundred or so guards still followed. Xiao Wuji, together with them, accompanied the king, naturally wanted to return to the palace. The royal palace of the Qin State is the imperial palace of the Xianyu Dynasty - Tai'a Palace. The completion of this palace in the Forty-Nine Cities of Tianyan was also protracted, and Xiao Wuji began to be eager to see what it looked like.
Yujing City, like a fairyland. The general dwellings in the city are also used to be green glazed tile roofs, the materials built are not bricks and tiles, but white and smooth marble, the city is full of carved beams and painted buildings, there are fountains and sculptures on the road, the strange and exotic grass around, such as the four seasons of Changchun are open together, the willow trees are neatly planted on both sides of the road, and the style of the whole city is completely integrated. This city itself is very much like a palace, so how brilliant and beautiful should the Tai'a Palace be?
Everyone was walking, it was too boring, seeing Xiao Wuji stunned, the soldier who had been introducing him to the scenery before smiled: "My lord must have never seen such a beautiful scenery, right?" ”
"Nature, I've seen a lot. I used to think that the most beautiful scenery in the world must come from the heavenly palace, and it is not human power to compete, but today when I came to this jade capital, I realized that when the original human power reached the limit, it was beautiful and could also surpass nature, which was really ......"
"When my family came here, they thought so. In the original Yu Dynasty, a random peddler pawn in this city called out, and that was also a member of the Yu royal family. The other forty-eight cities are also descendants of the powerful in the primeval period. After my king occupied this place, he drove them all away, and sat in such a wonderful place, how great should my lord think about it to the people who can be virtuous in the world? ”
Xiao Wuji's heart was shocked.
Such a place...... If you work by King Qin's side, you should be qualified to get a place to live, right? No wonder Yujing is so big, but there are few pedestrians, presumably many residences are empty, and the King of Qin keeps them for rewarding meritorious people.
The soldier said again: "The adults are moved, right? When my family joined the army, I thought the same thing. However, no matter how many of us killed the enemy, we could at most receive a dwelling place among the forty-eight acropolis. Of course, it is not as good as Yujing, more than any other place in the world. ”
"What do you need to have a place to live here?"
"One is naturally to buy, sell ten houses a year, and the one with the highest price will get it, and register it after the transaction, and it is forbidden to buy and sell again. The two are officials, and the officials who do business in the capital only have a temporary residence residence, and they can buy a residence for three years with an annual salary of more than 800 stones. The size of the dwelling depends on the level of the house. The three meritorious deeds must be miraculous, and they also need to be recognized by the king before they can be given a place to live. There are four royal families, but only those who have titles can come to live here. The nobles of the five, above the viscount, can abandon the fief as a condition to relocate, and below the viscount, they must be subject to the abandonment of the title. Sixth, it depends on the mood of the king, the entire Qin country is the king's, and the king's things are naturally given to whomever he wants. ”
Xiao Wuji secretly thought to himself that he had taken the head of the King of Chu and stopped the war in advance, I don't know if it was a miracle? As a loose official of the imperial guard, does he have 800 stones? Alas, Yu Lu...... I forgot to ask before. That...... Uncle of the country, does it count as a knighthood?
Thinking of this, Xiao Wuji immediately shook his head, and warned himself in his heart that he must not be carried away by the beauty here.
"My lord, look up, you can see Tai'a Palace."
Xiao Wuji raised his head when he heard this.
Really.
It is still far from Tai'a Palace, and you can see it because the foundation of Tai'a Palace is too high. The soldier said: "It used to be a low mountain, when the Tai'a Palace was built, the servants flattened the low mountain from the halfway point of the mountain, and then built the foundation on this basis, and then the female emperor felt that the lower half of the mountain was exposed, revealing the color of the earth, and it was not good-looking, so he ordered people to cover it with huge bricks made of marble, and then it became what it is today." ”
Xiao Wuji sighed: "Living in Yujing, how can you not pretend to be an immortal? Living in Tai'a Palace, how can he not pretend to be the emperor of heaven? This is no longer a wonder that can be found in the world. ”
"Adults work hard, there is still a great opportunity!" The soldier encouraged.
Xiao Wuji nodded.
At the same time, there are also people who, like Xiao Wouji, walk the streets here and admire its beauty. But that person's admiration was much more high-end than Xiao Wuji's. Within a few years, his admiration became a famous piece sung by the world: "Yujing Fu" and "Thirty-five Songs of Youxian Words". This person is the young Wang Qiushui.
Beside him were the great Confucian Song ministers.
Song Mingchen quietly listened to the young man's admiration, and then said: "If you live here, you will become a greedy person who is afraid of death." ”
The young man still had a dream-like application on his face, and said leisurely: "Why did the master say this? ”
"If you live here, are you willing to die?"
Young Wan'er: "Wherever I live, I will definitely be reluctant to die." But the master is right, such a beautiful place, intriguing, thinking that those who were not afraid of death will also become afraid of death. ”
Song Mingchen said: "Qiushui, we will soon become guests here." ”
"Master, I'm waiting here, do I really want to serve King Qin?"
"Why do you think we're here?"
Actually, the disciple was very puzzled. The king of Qi is not a mediocre person, he is open-minded, talented, resourceful, and very old-fashioned and spicy in his eyes to see people, he is a person who can be assisted, why did the master insist on leaving? ”
"This person's pattern is too small, and he is too persistent in his unrealistic ideals and beliefs, and it is difficult to become a big tool after all."
"Doesn't the master have such a belief?"
"Shizun has, but Shizun is not an emperor."
"I see."
……
As he got closer, Xiao Wuji really felt how high the Tai'a Palace was built.
The laborers not only cut the top of the mountain, but also the curvature of the mountain, from the bottom up, it is no longer visible that it is a mountain, it is almost a vertical plane, of course, it is necessary to tilt a little, so that it can show more majesty. He didn't know how to go up to such a place before, but when he got closer, he realized that there were steps. When he arrived here, Di Yunhuan also got off the carriage and prepared to walk. This kind of place is not something that cars and horses can go up to.
Di Yunhuan got out of the carriage and immediately walked to Xiao Furong's side, the two of them talked and laughed, and fortunately, Xiao Wuji didn't feel how tired it was to go up this ladder. The south gate of the palace is called Yantianmen, it is arched, one big and two small, the gate is the main gate of the whole palace, it is not rude, everyone including the King of Qin entered from the small door, after entering, Xiao Wuji saw a scenery that could be seen from afar.
It was a glazed tower, and the whole body was fired with glaze. Crystal clear and sparkling in the sun. Xiao Furong exclaimed: "What a beautiful tower! ”
Di Yunhuan smiled and said: "This glazed pagoda is used to hold the remains of the first king, called the ancestral tower, the ancestors of my Qin country are also from the Yu family, so the first king of the Yu family was not left out, Lone just moved the body of the first king of my Qin country in, for this reason, those pedantic officials did not scold Lone." It is said that the lonely man tampered with the body of the former king and disturbed the rest of the gods. Lone felt that he was just letting the former kings live in a better place. In addition to this ancestral pagoda, there is also a palace room made of turquoise glaze, called the Spirit Temple, which is a palace that is not too tall, and the only use of the Spirit Temple is to temporarily park the emperor's body. If there are no accidents, when you are lonely, you will stay there for a few days. ”
"If you say you die before you have lived well, you are really disappointed!"
"Alright, after returning from the expedition, Lone needs to rest well. Li Ci and Wang Ji, you two should go home separately first. ”
The two retreated.
The guards were also swept away by King Qin, and now there are only three people here: Xiao Wuji, Xiao Furong and Di Yunhuan.
"In this place, except for the lonely palace maid and eunuch, there is no one else, and it is really lonely. Wuji, Lone gives you the first task, and I will go to the harem with Lone later, and accompany Lone to practice martial arts. Fleur, do whatever you want, first familiarize yourself with the environment in the palace. ”
"Gotcha!"
Xiao Furong jumped and ran away, and immediately a eunuch sweating over answered. Xiao Wuji followed Di Yunhuan to the harem.
There are many naves in the harem, which are generally smaller, but the shape is more delicate and elegant, there is a very spacious courtyard in the middle, and there is a small lake in the courtyard. Di Yunhuan pointed to the small lake and said: "Actually, when Princess Ke Fang supervised the construction of Tai'a Palace, she wanted to cut this mountain a little lower, but she found ground water here, but it was just right, and it became a pleasing place to clean up." This Yujing and Tai'a Palace's immortal qi are too heavy, but here is a bit mortal. ”
Xiao Wuji said: "The minister thinks that this small lake is the most immortal. It's so clear. And...... Why doesn't there seem to be any fish in it? ”
"You taste it."
Xiao Wuji bent down, poked his fingers into the lake, and pulled them out again to lick them.
Salty.
"Further north there is a wider garden, where there is a lake with fish, which is hewn out by man, and the fish are raised by man, and if you want to see fish, you can go there and see it."
"I don't want to see the fish. Didn't the king say that he wanted his ministers to practice martial arts with the king? How to practice? ”
"Naturally, I saw the move, why, don't you dare?"
"In case you hurt the king......"
"Impossible." This is irrefutable.
His domineering and self-confidence made Xiao Wuji a little uncomfortable, so Xiao Wuji secretly decided to use his strength, even if he lost badly, he couldn't make it too easy.
"Draw your sword." Xiao Wuji said.
Di Yunhuan shook his head and said, "Lone rarely uses a sword. ”
"Hand fighting? But the minister is not good at hand-to-hand combat. ”
"You use the weapons you have at hand, and if your weapons are too bad, Gu can give you a good one."
Xiao Wuji said: "No need. ”
After that, a dagger slipped out of his sleeve.
Di Yunhuan sneered and said, "Fan Bing's ear." ”
At the moment when he spoke, Xiao Wuji moved. He is good at assassination, and since it is an assassination, it will move suddenly, making it impossible for people to guard against it. Xiao Wuji not only moved, but also chose an extremely strange angle, and the target of the attack was naturally a fatal place. Indeed, he was going to bring up twelve points of strength. Di Yunhuan was not the slightest surprised, he flicked it lightly, and then shook Xiao Wuji's hand away.
"Slightly slow."
Di Yunhuan commented.
Xiao Wuji made another move.
This trick is like a ghost, the sky is shaking out, and there is no wind at all.
"Artistic conception?"
Di Yunhuan had to get serious, he turned his fingers into his hands and greeted him directly. Xiao Wuji clearly saw that the air around Di Yunhuan's palm became like a summer heat wave, constantly bending and shaking. This was the first time Xiao Wuji had seen the true qi out of his body.
The dagger in his hand was shocked out by a fleshy palm.
Xiao Wu was greatly shocked.
Such an internal force can no longer be described as extremely strong.
It's like a fairy.
Xiao Wuji's heart trembled like five thunderbolts, and he forgot to make the next move, forgetting to pick up his dagger. After a long time, Di Yunhuan spoke: "Xiao Wuji, how long have you been practicing martial arts?" ”
Xiao Wuji said: "Six years of learning to become a mediocre hand, fifteen days to achieve the current realm. ”
Di Yunhuan responded: "It took fifteen years to learn to be a mediocre hand, and for fifteen years, I got up before dawn every day to practice martial arts, and continued to practice martial arts after going to the early dynasty." In the evening, I went back to review the book, and then read the book. I only sleep for about an hour and a half a day. However, Lone seems to be more talented in literature, and he spends much more time in martial arts than reading books for literature, but when he has practiced for fifteen years, he is still mediocre. At that time, I asked the martial artist who taught Lone, and the martial master said that Lone probably did not have much attainment in martial arts. Unexpectedly, one day he returned from practicing martial arts alone, and was about to go to the court, when he suddenly stayed halfway. ”
Xiao Wuji said bitterly: "Same as the minister? ”
Di Yunhuan nodded: "There, I stood alone for a day and a night." When I was refreshed, it became what I am now. ”
"Such an internal force is not something that can be realized with a sigh."
Di Yunhuan said: "However, in fact, this internal force was also obtained in that day and night. At that time, many figures flashed in Gu's heart, and he felt that there was a strong wind blowing around him-the eunuch told Gu that there must be no wind that day. Thinking that he had lied to Gu, he went to ask someone else, and the others replied the same. Now that I think about it, the huge wind between heaven and earth at that time was probably what the Taoists called qi. (To be continued.) )
