Outside the east gate of Linzi, three riders are galloping to the west, one riding in front, two riding one left and one right following behind, in the shape of a pin.

When the three horses galloped to the distant hill, a person in front suddenly held the reins of the horse, and the hind hooves of the horse under the crotch suddenly stopped, and at the same time the front hooves were raised nobly, neighing loudly, and finally the horse stopped beating a few times in place when the hooves stopped, and the two people on the left and right behind also stopped stopping their horses when they saw this.

Stopping the horse, a person in front of him set up a pergola, looked at the east and west galloping under the hill, and after a while, he turned back to a young man on the left and said: "Hu Hai, let's hurry up, maybe we can catch up with the funeral of my father." ”

It was Zhao Jun who spoke, and after agreeing with Tang Li and the others yesterday afternoon, the envoy of the imperial court happened to come and asked him and Hu Hai to return to Xianyang quickly.

Last night, Hu Hai cried a lot after learning the news, several children counted him as the most intimate relationship with the first emperor, and the first emperor also favored him the most when he was there, and now that the emperor has died, Hu Hai suddenly felt that he was an orphan, helpless, and flustered.

Fortunately, with Zhao Jun by his side to comfort him, Hu Hai was better.

"Hmm." Hu Hai pursed his lips and nodded, his interest was not high, and finally he suddenly looked at Zhao Jun and said with a serious face: "Second brother, what if the eldest brother really wants to take away your military power this time?" ”

Zhao Jun's expression moved after hearing this, he looked at Hu Hai and smiled, this guy has grown up in the past few years, and the childishness on his face is slowly getting rid of it, although he is still very young, but he is sensible.

"Then what do you think the second brother should do?" Zhao Jun asked rhetorically.

Hu Hai was stunned when he heard this, and shook his head blankly on the horse: "I don't know." ”

But then, Hu Hai's face turned firm and said: "No matter what, I will be with the second brother, whoever deals with the second brother, I will beat whoever he wants, and the eldest brother will not be able to." ”

"Good brother, haha." Zhao Jun patted Hu Hai's shoulder on the horse and smiled, and then said meaningfully: "You remember, no matter how disputes between brothers are, they should not fight each other, this is the bottom line." ”

After that, Zhao Jun greeted Bo Lang, and rode to the gallop road, Hu Hai was stunned in the back, seemed to have an understanding, and then rode a horse to catch up quickly, although the horse under its crotch is not as good as the roaring dog, but it is also a rare desert horse.

From Linzi to Xianyang, it is equivalent to from the extreme east to the extreme west, crossing the entire territory of Great Qin, but fortunately, there is a gallop road built by the first emperor, which can lead directly to Xianyang, and the road is smooth and wide.

In the past few years, the project of Chidao has been completely completed, covering almost most of the counties of the entire empire, and the official road built on this basis by the later National People's Congress.

Across more than 1,000 miles, Zhao Jun, Hu Hai, and Bo Lang shared ten days, and the first emperor had already been buried, and Zhao Jun and Hu Hai could only mourn alone and guard the tomb for three days.

In the end, Zhao Jun and Hu Hai Bolang lived in the courtyard of Tingfeng, and his house in Xianyang had already been handed over to the imperial court.

After the meal, Bo Lang and Hu Hai went to their respective houses to rest, while Zhao Jun, Mrs. Qing, and Mu Ning were all in a room in the backyard.

Inside the house, Mrs. Qing said with some concern: "Fusu Gongzi heard that you are coming back, and tomorrow will be an early dynasty, and I have sent someone to inform you that you must go tomorrow, and a few days ago, a letter came out from the palace, saying that Fusu Gongzi intends to transfer you to Northern Xinjiang." ”

Mu Ning snorted coldly: "He is obviously jealous of the military power in his hands, and he is virtuous and generous before the throne, but now he wants to attack his brother, which is really hypocritical." ”

"I still have a death-free card left by the First Emperor before leaving, you can take it later." Mrs. Qing said lightly.

Zhao Jun couldn't help but be a little moved after hearing this, the token of avoiding death was probably left by the First Emperor who was not worried about Mrs. Qing, after all, Mrs. Qing can have a lofty status, all with the support of the First Emperor, which is equivalent to a life.

"No, the situation is not as bad as you think, he is not ruthless enough to kill his siblings, at most he wants my military power." Zhao Jun shook his head.

"But that is your foundation, you exchanged it with the first emperor with merit, why did he let it out so easily with a word." Mu Ning was anxious for Zhao Jun, and now the court knew the purpose of Fusu, and Zhao Jun was like a lamb to the slaughter.

"It won't be that easy." Zhao Jun smiled mysteriously, then looked at Mu Ning and said, "Ning'er, you went to inform Old General Wang Jian and Old Mr. Wei Yi overnight, now only they can help me." ”

"They? Be careful. Mrs. Qing's eyes lit up, and she instantly understood the key.

Mu Ning also understood later, but he was a little worried: "Are the two of them willing to help you?" After all, the prince of Fusu is about to ascend the throne, and they may not be able to shock Fusu. ”

"Do your best and let it be the fate of heaven."

Zhao Jun smiled helplessly, in fact, although Sima Xin's strategy is good, it is still in the people after all, if Fusu insists on it, who can help it.

After a night's rest, Zhao Jun wore a well-fitting black robe, wore a jade crown of the Hou Throne, and rode the carriage and horse prepared by Mrs. Qing all the way to Xianyang Palace, Hu Hai and Bo Lang were also there.

Outside the Xianyang Palace, Zhao Jun got out of the carriage and went straight to the Xiling Hall after being checked by Yulinwei outside the palace.

As soon as he arrived at the Xiling Palace Square, he saw Zhang Hanzheng, who had not been seen for many years, coming towards him, he was wearing armor and holding a sword, followed by a few Yu Lin Guards, looking majestic, and the Yu Lin Guards who were on duty around him were all respectful.

"Zhang Han pays a visit to Master Hou." Zhang Han walked five steps forward and bowed.

Zhao Jun took two steps forward to help Zhang Han, and said with a faint smile: "I haven't seen you for many years, General Zhang is much more powerful." ”

"Thanks to Master Hou's recommendation back then, otherwise Zhang Han would not be where he is today." Zhang Han said with a sincere face, and finally retreated a few Yu Lin Wei behind him, and said in a low voice: "Master Hou, you have to be careful today, if there is a place that can be used for Zhang Han, just say it, Zhang Han will do his best, but unfortunately I can't go to court." ”

Zhao Jun nodded with satisfaction, he finally didn't make friends with Zhang Han in vain.

"If you can have this heart, you will appreciate it, and if you need it in the future, you will definitely inform General Zhang."

Zhang Han bowed down and smiled: "Then I won't bother much, Master Hou, please come in, the time is almost up." ”

"Hmm." Zhao Jun left Bo Lang to wait in the square, and walked up the steps with Hu Hai, preparing to enter the Xiling Palace.

At this moment, suddenly Meng Yi, dressed in a long robe and fluttering and sturdy, walked from the side of the hall.

"Master, hehe." Zhao Jun greeted, he hadn't seen Meng Yi for several years, and he was a little happy at first sight.

Meng Yi also nodded with satisfaction and said: "You have done a good job in Linzi in the past few years, there are forty-eight counties in the country, only Linzi County has no bandits, and his political achievements are transcendent. ”

"The master is too praised, and he will seek his own government in his position." Zhao Jun said modestly.

Meng Yi nodded, and after saluting Hu Hai, he turned his head to look at Zhao Jun and instructed: "I may not be able to help with today's matter, but no matter when, don't resist the decision of Prince Fusu, he hasn't had time to ascend the throne, his prestige can't be hit, and I don't want you to be stiff, he wants to be the emperor after all." ”

"Well, I know what to do." Zhao Jun nodded, but sighed secretly in his heart, the Montessori has always been biased towards Fusu, or rather biased towards maintaining orthodoxy, and will not show favoritism at all.

Then, after Meng Yi entered the main hall, Zhao Jun motioned for Hu Hai to go in as well.
