Chapter 12 Sure enough, everywhere you go is a world that looks at faces...... (4.6K 2-in-1 Grand Chapter)
Daqian Dynasty, Liangzhou, Nanyang County
"Your Highness, you will go to Nanyang County in front, and when you enter Nanyang County, you will go out of the boundary of Taizhou and enter the territory of Liangzhou......"
The mighty convoy of King Qin paused on the official road, and Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin, stood on top of the king's chariot, holding the carved wooden railing, listening to the reply of the old butler Gao De, he couldn't help but bow his head slowly.
After walking for seven or eight days, I didn't expect to walk out of the boundary of Taizhou.
This made Zhao Zheng feel a little depressed in his heart, although Shenwei County is not very far from Nanyang County, but it is less than ten days, and he is about to leave Taizhou and enter Liangzhou.
And Qinchuan County is in Liangzhou, although it is in the northernmost border county of Liangzhou, if you continue to travel at this speed, don't rush to Qinchuan in less than a month, right?
"Liangzhou...... Liangzhou ......"
Zhao Zhengyao looked at the boundary monument between Liangzhou and Nanyang County, muttering in his mouth, but a rather absurd idea suddenly rose in his heart!
'Liangzhou! Hiss~ Doesn't it mean that you're going to be cool, right? ’
This kind of thought flashed, and Zhao Zheng was suddenly shocked in his heart!
I don't know what's going on, but after staying here for a long time, even he, an outstanding socialist young man who has received a good nine-year compulsory education, has a little feudal superstition in his mind......
'No, no, no, I'll stick to a bottom line anyway! Kill and not enter the border! ’
Zhao Zheng hurriedly shook his head, but he secretly made up his mind in his heart that after entering Qinchuan County, he would lie in his palace every day, and he would not step into the border even if he was killed!
Thinking about it like this...... You should be able to sit back and relax, right?
Could it be that Beidi can still break through the border and kill all the way to the palace? ?
Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng subconsciously touched the jade plate of the head of the He family in his arms, and immediately felt that this token was slightly hot.
Originally, I planned to visit this general of the Northern Expedition as soon as I entered Qinchuan-why bother.
Now that I think about it, let's forget it and talk about it when I have a chance later......
"Alright, let's go......"
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhao Zheng suddenly lost his interest, waved his hand excitedly, and signaled to leave.
But before turning back to the carriage, he suddenly said as if he had remembered something.
"By the way, after several days of travel, the carriages and horses are tired, and the soldiers should be a little tired...... It's better to find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers after entering Nanyang...... Let's camp and rest for a while. ”
When it came to the place where the mountains and rivers were beautiful, Zhao Zheng was a little interested, and couldn't help nodding with satisfaction, and then turned around and entered the carriage.
He was still quite interested in his sudden idea, wouldn't it be interesting to find a place where weeds and flowers were scented to camp and camp?
You might even find a lake with clear water and go for a freestyle!
Thinking like this, Zhao Zheng's steps suddenly felt much lighter, and he couldn't help but subconsciously hum a little song~
But when these words heard the ears of other people, they were immediately stunned, and their hearts were full of emotion!
Everyone looked around at each other, and then sighed slightly.
'Your Highness is so respectful, and you are so considerate of the soldiers...... It's impressive! ’
……
"Sister Yun, I've always had a doubt about my brother...... But I don't know whether to ask or not? ”
After driving into Nanyang County, Zhao Zheng sat firmly in his royal car as usual, and chatted with Yun Mei, who often relied on his royal car and did not leave.
"Huh?"
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile.
"Brother Huang's words are too outward! Between you and me...... And what must not be said? ”
Zhao Zheng suddenly bowed his head, pondered for a moment, and after organizing the appropriate words in his heart, he said thoughtfully.
"Brother Wei has always wondered why your grandfather is the Gongsun family, but the more noble concubine Niangniang ...... But is it Yue's? ”
This strange question has always been hidden in Zhao Zheng's heart, but he is not embarrassed to ask it directly.
It was only at this time, after the relationship with Yun Mei became more and more intimate that he couldn't help but ask curiously.
After all, this kind of thing generally involves secrets within the family, so how can others inquire casually?
"Uh, this ......"
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud, and then said.
"So that's it...... What can't you tell the royal brother? ”
When Zhao Zheng heard this, he immediately sat cross-legged, and when he sat up straight, he was ready to listen to Yun'er talk about the hidden gossip involved.
It seems that humans are animals like this, but no matter where they are, they are so fond of gossip......
"Actually, my grandfather's life...... It's really magnificent, it's legendary......"
Zhao Yun tilted her little head and began to tell, constantly recalling the past events in the clan that she had heard in her mind, and her face couldn't help but overflow with a smile.
"My grandfather was from a poor family, but my grandmother was the pearl of the hundred-year-old family, the Yue family, and it stands to reason that such a different identity would never come together no matter what......"
Zhao Zheng nodded again and again when he heard this, after staying in Daqian for so long, he realized very much that what is the real difference between respect and inferiority, and the class is strict!
The magnitude of the class division in ancient times is far beyond the limits of any modern person's imagination!
The head of Qiantou is the head of Qian, and it is almost destined to be the head of Qiantou for generations, and he can only face the loess with his back to the sky, carrying a hoe to barely make ends meet.
Unless there is a war era when there is a shortage of wars, there is a slight possibility to earn military merits by going into battle to kill the enemy, and then change the fate of yourself and your family.
A poor family is a poor family, and it is difficult to break through the class through their own efforts and enter the higher class of powerful landlords.
Of course, if it is compared to the famous family, it is even more different, like the difference between clouds and mud.
However, although the status of the Hanmen is low, it can be regarded as having some status, which is completely different from the head of Qian, who has no human rights at all!
When Zhao Zheng had just crossed, he often subconsciously thought that the cold gate was the head of Qian, and the head of the Qianmen was the head of the cold door, and often confused the head of the cold door with the head of the Qianmen.
But in fact, the Hanmen only refers to the humble clans, referring to the Shu clans with lower power, not the poor class.
In ancient times, anyone who could bring a door word was amazing, and it was naturally not within the reach of ordinary cloth clothes.
As for Qianshou, he is a decent poor and poor peasant class, that is, the so-called ordinary people, not to mention sending their children to school, but they are barely able to make do with food and clothing.
Although the Hanmen has a humble background, he can be regarded as having a background, and he still has the ability to learn martial arts, gain some insight and knowledge, and practice his skills.
A small white-collar worker like Zhao Zheng in his previous life, if he is divided by ancient classes, he is not even qualified to be a poor family, and at best he is a Qiantou status!
Therefore, after deeply understanding the seriousness and severity of the ancient class division, Zhao Zheng suddenly heard that Lord Gongsun Yue, who was born in a cold family, was able to climb up to the Yue Guifei from the world, he was naturally shocked and admired!
This is as bizarre as a young man who has no worries about food and clothing in a small county town in later generations, barely enough to be considered middle-class, and actually married the daughter of a listed company!
In ancient times, under this strict class system, this kind of marriage that was not in the right household was more controversial and rare!
"How do you ...... that?"
Zhao Zheng couldn't help but ask curiously, but he couldn't figure it out, how could Concubine Yue fall in love with Lord Gongsun Yue, who was born in a cold family, and how could the famous Yue family agree to this family business?
"Actually, I don't know much about the specific situation, I only know roughly that although my grandfather was from a poor family, he practiced a good martial arts! Before the founding of the country, he followed his father to fight on the battlefield......"
Zhao Yun shook her head slightly, but still said everything she knew truthfully.
"Although my grandfather was from a humble background, he fought bravely, was not afraid of life and death, and self-cultivation of military books, wisdom and bravery, so he was highly valued by his father, and he was repeatedly entrusted with important tasks, and made great contributions to the annexation of Qi and Yan for the Zhao State!"
mentioned her grandfather, but Zhao Yun's immature face flashed with an indescribable brilliance.
Growing up, she grew up listening to her grandfather's legendary stories.
Grandfather's horse leather shroud, the great feats of fighting on the battlefield, inspired Zhao Yun to aspire to this since he was a child, and to be like his grandfather, to fight for the country and serve the country with his body!
Although she is a daughter, her bloody heart is not inferior to a man's body!!
Later, in a key battle, my father was ambushed by mistake and was surrounded by the enemy's army, and his life was almost in danger! It was my grandfather who led 300 guards to lead the siege and rescued my father with his own hands! ”
When Zhao Yun said this, her emotions gradually became a little excited, and Zhao Zheng heard it again on the side, but he also felt a stirring in his chest.
He had naturally heard about this matter for a long time, and his father led the Zhao State from a small country on one side, from a poor and weak country, from a land of less than one state, to annex Qi and Yan, and occupy the land of three states, and establish a great Qian dynasty on its own!
This road is bloody and bloody, fighting and killing, but it has experienced many hardships and hardships, which is why we have today's great work and today's great cause!
What Yun Mei said was the most dangerous life and death ordeal that her father had personally experienced!
Back then, his father was ambushed, besieged, and almost died here!
Thanks to Lord Gongsun Yue for disregarding life and death at that time, he personally led the elite soldiers to risk death to enter the encirclement, which saved his father from the mortal situation!
Otherwise, how could there be a great merit of annexing Qi and Yan later?
And the slightly hideous scar on his father's face was also left in this danger of life and death.
For this life-saving grace, the father has always kept it in mind, not only rewarded Lord Gongsun Yue's extremely rare self-defense armor - gold silk soft armor, and then promoted Lord Gongsun Yue to be the secretary of the military department and presided over the military affairs of a country.
It can be described as a supreme minister, a saint's grace!
"Of course, that's all for later...... When my grandfather and grandmother first met, my grandfather was just the commander of my father's own army. ”
Suddenly coming back to her senses, Zhao Yun chuckled and shook her head again and again, and continued to talk about the vigorous love story between her grandfather and grandmother.
"At that time, the Zhao State was not favored, although the military was at its peak and the battle was brave, but it was located on the border, and the people were poor, and they often relied on fighting to feed the war, otherwise they would not be able to support the continuous conquest for many years."
Zhao Zheng bowed his head slowly, and he was naturally well aware of the glorious historical relics of Zhao's rise from a small border country.
"The Zhao State originated in Liangzhou, and the Yue family is a famous family in Hexi County, Taizhou, and it can be said that it is a masterpiece in Hexi."
When it came to Hexi, Zhao Zheng couldn't help but move in his heart, just because just now the entire Qin Wang convoy passed through Hexi County, the westernmost part of Taizhou, and then entered Nanyang County in Liangzhou.
It can be seen that the first gateway for Liangzhou to enter Taizhou is Hexi County, which bears the brunt!
"So when the army of Zhao invaded Hexi, the entire Yue clan was naturally panicked, as the top family lord in Hexi, my father naturally wanted to go as a guest, so as to borrow some money, grain and grass......"
Speaking of this, Zhao Yun and Zhao Zheng couldn't help but laugh softly, and they found it interesting.
said that it was a temporary loan, but in fact, it was just a door-to-door robbery!
And how dare the Yue clan refuse in the face of the entry of the army?
"It was at this time that my grandfather unexpectedly met my grandmother, who was the eldest lady of the Yue family......"
When Zhao Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and looked, this is the stage of vigorous romance.
"Although my grandfather is good at martial arts, he has studied military books by himself, and he is full of wealth, which is by no means comparable to such vulgar martial artists, plus sword eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome and handsome, grandmother She fell in love at first sight and was moved by each other."
Really......
Whether ancient or modern, is this really still a world of faces......
Zhao Zheng was speechless, it turned out that the reason why ordinary people were favored by Miss Qianjin was that the emotion was one word - handsome!
"But what kind of family is the Yue clan? Even if he is trapped by the sword soldiers, how can he look at his grandfather's humble background? Therefore, he refused the love between his grandfather and grandmother, and his attitude was very resolute, and he even gave a grounding order for his grandmother, not allowing her to go out for a single step! ”
Zhao Zheng breathed a sigh of relief at this time, that's it, this is the normal operation......
No matter how handsome you are, you can't be handsome with the family of a century-old family!
"However, my grandmother swore to die, and my grandfather did not marry! In addition, wherever the army of Zhao Guo went, it was invincible and rampant! And his grandfather was valued by his father, and ordered him to lead an army by himself and be crowned a pioneer general! ”
Speaking of this, Zhao Yun only felt that her heart was stirring, as if she was infected with the loyal love between her grandfather and grandmother, which transcended the worldly prejudices and secular prejudices!
After several years of stalemate, my grandmother was still unmoved, and my grandfather was awarded the title of general, and this status and status were no longer as wrong as before...... Therefore, the Yue clan had no choice but to be subject to the territory of Zhao State, so they could only reluctantly agree to this family business, but ......"
Suddenly, Zhao Yun's words changed, but Zhao Zheng was suddenly curious, and hurriedly asked!
"Huh? But what?? ”
But Yue put forward one condition...... is that after the two got married, the first child born to them, whether male or female, must follow the surname Yue and not the surname of Gongsun! ”
Zhao Yun bit her lip and squeezed these words out of her mouth.
"What? There are such excessive conditions?! ”
Zhao Zheng was shocked!
But he never thought that in order to obstruct this marriage, the Yue clan would even dare to put forward such excessive and harsh conditions!
Isn't he afraid that Lord Gongsun Yue will be angry and directly lead the army to destroy his Yue clan?!
It is necessary to know that the son follows the father's surname, which has been passed down from ancient times!
Don't say that in ancient times when traditional concepts were extremely conservative, even in modern times when ideas and concepts were already very open, many people still found it difficult to accept this kind of thing!
Your own children can't take their own surname, but their mother's surname??
This...... How many men are able to accept such harsh conditions and requirements?!
What's more, this is in ancient times, this is on Gongsun Yue, who has heavy troops and has been fighting on the battlefield all year round!
He...... Would he really endure such harsh requirements and agree to marry Miss Yue because of love?
"Yes, my grandfather thought about it for a long time, and finally agreed to Yue's conditions......"
When Zhao Zheng suddenly heard this, he suddenly lost his mind, but he never expected that Lord Gongsun Yue would have such an unforgettable love experience......
It's no wonder that the later Concubine Yue is obviously the eldest daughter of Lord Gongsun Yue, but her surname is Yue instead of Gongsun!
Who knew that there was such a vigorous past hidden in this......
For a while, the two people in the carriage were both distracted and speechless for a long time.
Zhao Zheng stared ahead, his thoughts were chaotic, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Zhao Yun stared at the side face of the imperial brother, stunned, but her heart was full of infinite hope......
'In my life, can I meet such a loyal and vigorous love......
……
"Life is precious, ambition is higher, if it is for love, both can be thrown!"
