Chapter 101: The Old Patriarch's Awakening

Chen Sheng smiled bitterly. I can't imagine that such a small little girl is so unforgettable for hatred. But after thinking about it, Qin Law stipulates that girls who have reached the age of fourteen can get married; Ling Zhu'er, who is thirteen years old, looks still naΓ―ve, but her psychology is also becoming mature. Especially in this uncivilized land, the matter of grievances is even clearer.

Chen Sheng saw Ling Zhu'er's uneasiness. After all, it was to help foreigners deal with their own kind, and it was sad to think about it. Especially after she also knew the fate of Ben Sheng, thinking that her behavior seemed to be a betrayal of the Yue people, her heart was even more miserable.

Chen Sheng thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, when your grandfather wakes up, I will explain it to him." The king of Dongou oppressed your Yue tribe, which shows that he did not regard your people of the Yue tribe as his people in the first place, and other villages besieged your village, let alone regarded your village as a part of the Yue tribe. Now that the Yue people have formed mortal enmity with other villages, it is also difficult to reconcile. After a pause, Chen Sheng said again: "As long as the Qin army drives away the king of Donou, then we will formulate rules to let the villages live in peace, and in the future, the bloodshed between the villages will be greatly reduced, and you Yue people will not have to live a life of worrying and fearing......" Lingzhu'er is also a little girl, in Chen Sheng's demagogic words, she finally settled down, and some longed for the Yue tribe under the rule of the Qin people.

Chen Sheng knew that everything he said was just an idea of his own. The backward Baiyue ethnic groups can never be the opponent of the Qin people, and the unification of the Qin people is an unstoppable thing. The whole process will be very arduous and bloody, and the means of ruling may not be better than when the Dongou King ruled. However, Chen Sheng knew that this was the trend of history, and it was not something that he and the people of Yue could change. He only hoped that the Qin people would adopt moderate measures to accept the people of these new territories. Thinking of this, Chen Sheng had some planning clauses in his mind, and thought to himself, if this Dongou Minyue is destroyed in the future, I will be the county guard......

Thinking of this, Chen Sheng was in a trance, and countless plans appeared in his mind. When he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but laugh. What is a county guard? This is equivalent to the governor of a province in later generations, how can he, a stinky boy, hold this position?

Seeing that Chen Sheng suddenly fell silent, Ling Zhu'er was also very quiet and did not speak. After a while, a faint hoarse voice sounded from the side: "Ling...... Pearls? ”

Hearing this faint voice, Chen Sheng came to his senses, and couldn't help but be overjoyed to see the old patriarch's cracked lips squirming. The old patriarch woke up a little earlier than he expected, indicating that the old patriarch's health was recovering better than he expected.

"Grandpa......" Seeing the old patriarch wake up, Lingzhu'er cried with joy and pounced on the old patriarch's body, almost tearing open the old patriarch's wound. The old patriarch snorted twice in pain, and Ling Zhu'er realized that she was too excited, and almost aggravated Grandpa's injury. She hurriedly got up, wiped her tears, and said, "Grandpa, it's okay if you're fine...... Woohoo......"

The old patriarch saw Lingzhu'er crying on the side, a kind smile appeared on his wrinkled face, and he said weakly: "Lingzhu'er, I'm not dead yet?" …… I seem to remember that the great wizards have given me a prayer, how can I survive? ”

"It was this Mr. Lang Zhong who saved ......" Ling Zhu'er wiped away her tears, stretched out her hand to pull Chen Sheng on the side, and said: "He is from Qin, last night, Ben Sheng attracted those barbarians from nine villages and eighteen villages, and he and his helpers helped us get rid of those barbarians...... "Ling Zhu'er was happy for a while, and sad for a while, and talked intermittently about what happened from last night to today to the old patriarch. Even when she told Chen Sheng that there was a trail of Wuyi Pass on the cliff, she didn't hide it in the slightest, and Chen Sheng, who was standing on the side, was very entangled.

The old patriarch's eyes were a little blank, he looked Chen Sheng up and down a few times, did not speak, and quietly listened to Ling Zhu'er's words. Hearing that Ben Sheng was a traitor, his Mu Ran's eyes suddenly became a little more angry. Chen Sheng could see at a glance that this old patriarch was not a good stubble. It is said that this nephew is still the nephew of the old patriarch, but from the eyes of the old patriarch, the fate of this nephew in his hands is not necessarily easier than that of those elders.

"Lingzhu'er, Grandpa is hungry, you go find something to eat for Grandpa, okay?" After listening to Lingzhu'er's words, the old patriarch found an excuse, sent Lingzhu'er out, and then said to Chen Sheng: "This little Langzhong, how about you talk to me?" After listening to what Lingzhu'er said, and knowing that Chen Sheng still had such a brave partner as Fan Jiao, the more vigilant he was against Chen Sheng. He was very worried about what deep connection Chen Sheng had with the turmoil in Yuezhai last night. Those vassal states in the northern Central Plains like to use stratagem the most, and they like to instigate civil strife in other countries.

"Okay." Chen Sheng smiled, sat down next to the old patriarch, and saw that the old patriarch was about to struggle to sit up, so he hurriedly supported him and said, "The patriarch's body has not healed yet, be careful, lest you crack the wound and delay the recovery period." ”

Seeing the body that was missing an arm, the old patriarch's eyes were a little gloomy. He sighed and said, "Qin Jun? These words are asking Chen Sheng's identity. Chen Sheng shook his head and said: "No, I don't have any position in the Qin army, but because I assisted in the official investigation of the case and received a small title, I came to the southeast to track down the whereabouts of some things, and by the way, see how the Qin army is doing." ”

The old patriarch looked at Chen Sheng suspiciously, and said for a long time: "I also heard what you said to Lingzhu'er just now, although I was confused, but I still heard a lot, and I roughly knew the danger that my Yue clan is in now." ”

Chen Sheng was stunned. I secretly said in my heart, what an old fox. Fortunately, there was no content in his words about smearing the Yue clan, otherwise it would be terrible.

"You're right. We have offended Su Wuzhu, and have formed a mortal enmity with the surrounding villages, with our current strength, we can endure for a while, but we can't hold on for a lifetime, and our situation is very dangerous. The old patriarch said slowly.

Chen Sheng raised his eyebrows and said slowly: "Since the old patriarch understands this, why don't you make a clear choice?" ”

"How?" The old patriarch's eyes were like lightning, and he stared at Chen Sheng.

"Surrender to the Qin army. Not surrender, but mutual cooperation. The Qin people can provide you with advanced weapons to arm the warriors of the Yue tribe, and the people of the Yue tribe are the people of the Qin State from now on, and crusade against the villages and villages of the non-Qin State, and all the proceeds belong to the Yue people, of course, since they are Qin people, the Yue people also have to follow the Qin law, according to a certain timetable, gradually accept the civilized living customs, and get rid of the backward and primitive situation. ”
