Chapter 208: Mountains and Rivers
The night rain in Gusu is as quiet as a dream.
The palace is continuous, located in the old capital of Wu Kingdom, and under the night, it is even more lonely in autumn.
"Is the gentleman still dealing with government affairs?"
A big man stood outside the palace gate, but saw the attendant shake his head.
"After the failure of the merger, domestic political affairs have become more and more burdensome, and the monarch has been working all night to deal with government affairs these days."
Dahan shook his head, and just as he sighed, Chun Shenjun's voice came from the room.
"Is it Zhu Ying outside?"
"The subordinates are here!"
"I sent you to Wu, Shen, Huaibei and other places to inspect whether the people in various places have sufficient food and clothing after the autumn and whether they are oppressed by officials, what happened?"
"Your Excellency, the details of various places have been discovered, and they are about to report to your lordship."
"Come in!"
"No!"
Just before Zhu Ying was about to enter the house, her face suddenly changed. He took a few quick steps back, grabbed one of the spears of the guard at the door, and threw it at the eaves not far away.
With a click, a snare assassin fell from above, causing chaos.
"There are assassins!"
The chamberlain shouted, and a large number of guards guarded the palace where Chun Shenjun was.
Zhu Ying stood at the door, like a door god, intimidating a group of net assassins.
"Don't panic, put the safety of the king first, and gradually investigate the various palaces and search for assassins."
"No!"
In the darkness, several sword lights arrived, directly taking Zhu Ying at the door. He suddenly became alert, picked up the long sword in his hand, and met the enemy.
At this moment, Chun Shenjun's guards had arrived, covering the surroundings of the palace.
More than a dozen world-class swordsmen participated in this battle group, and Zhu Ying took the lead, taking the lead among the assassins.
The long swords collided in the night rain, and with a bang, the thick sword qi swept away the rain.
Zhu Ying put away his sword and retreated, and a large number of guards surrounded him.
As the world's top masters, Zhu Ying knows very well the origin of these people. Or rather, the origin of the long swords in their hands.
"Why, there is one less of the six sword slaves in the net, do you dare to be embarrassed on the rivers and lakes?"
"Less nonsense!"
As soon as he swung his sword, the other four sword slaves followed behind him, tightly surrounded. This precisely planned assassination was unexpected, but it fell short at the last moment.
When the Assassins were exposed, they lost their natural cover. What they didn't expect was that there were so many masters around Chun Shenjun.
"It seems that you have not suffered enough under the commander of the Mo family!"
Hearing this name, Zhengang was inexplicably angry.
Zhu Ying waved his hand and shouted.
"Up!"
A large number of swordsmen rushed into the warband, fighting the assassins of the net. Zhu Ying always stood at the door, not giving the net assassin a little space.
As a top master, Zhu Ying's ears and eyes are sensitive, and he clearly heard the sound of flipping through bamboo slips in the room behind him, and he did not stop because of this assassination.
After about a moment, the Assassin saw that he could not break through the defenses, so he retreated. Zhu Ying personally guarded the town, and after a long time, he learned the information from the commanders of the guards everywhere, and turned around to tell him.
"Your Majesty, the assassins have retired."
After a long time, in the room, there was a sigh from Chun Shenjun.
"The facts are chaotic, the state of Chu is like this, the state of Qin is like this, and the world is also like this. Go down and rest for a while, and after an hour, tell me the details of the places. ”
"No!"
........
The land of Qilu, high on the mountain.
Xun Zi sat under the green pine on the cliff, and Han Fei sat opposite him, surrounded by white clouds.
"Han Fei, you are about to return to South Korea, why are you so confused?"
Han Fei smiled, facing his teacher, he was very respectful, but he was not only obsessed with etiquette.
"The teacher is not me, how do I know that I have doubts in my heart?"
Xun Zi's eyes were half-opened, looking at Han Fei, and there was a slight smile on the other party's face.
"You want to follow the example of the sages, but the joke isn't funny!"
Han Fei had the embarrassment on his face after saying the cold joke, he touched his head, and his face became serious.
"I had a dream last night, and when I woke up, I found that the tears were not dry."
"Oh? Is it sadness, or is it joy? ”
"The disciple doesn't remember either, after the disciple woke up, he only felt that the tranquility in the dream seemed to be impossible to find."
"What does that feel like?"
"That tranquility seems to be like this eternal galaxy in the sky, and how small it is for mortals to be under it. Between heaven and earth, is there really a power that can last forever and never die? ”
"It's easy, it's not easy!"
Xunzi opened his eyes, and the tranquility in the morning light gradually faded away in this slow sound. As the sun rose, the world turned white, and the scorching sun was not as dazzling as it had been at the beginning of its rise, but it was also extremely hot.
"The Monarch of Yao Shun, if you are today, can you be the Holy Monarch? The lord of the Clan, once in this world, can be a tyrant? ”
Confucianism and Confucius, even more want to restore the Zhou rites and restore order to this increasingly erosive world.
It's just that after all, it still can't stop the world from sliding into the abyss.
"The rule of the three kings, kill one person and put him in a shackle; In the world of great controversy, kill millions of feudal princes. Is the world wrong? ”
"Song Xiang thought of benevolence, and smiled for eternity; Bai Qi has killed countless people, and he is known as a good general. Is the world wrong? ”
"Heaven is constant, not because of Yao, not because of Yao, not to die."
Han Fei bowed deeply, his face solemn.
"Disciple remember."
"This time, are you going to take your leave?"
"Yes, the disciple wants to travel before returning to Korea."
"Go ahead!"
Xunzi closed his eyes, and in Han Fei's opinion, he seemed to be one with the mountain scenery.
Han Fei walked down the cliff and glanced back at his teacher. This parting may be difficult to see again.
"You travel down the mountain, no matter after that, to Han Shiqin, there is one person, you must be cautious. He is Zhao Shuang, the Hanyang Jun of the Qin State. ”
His teacher's voice echoed in his ears, as if it came from far, far away.
"Zhao Shuang?"
Han Fei is somewhat familiar with this name. Just as he was about to ask something, he saw clouds and mist drifting in the mountains, surrounding him, separating him from his teacher far, far away.
Han Fei shook his head, and finally headed down the mountain.
......
East County.
"Brother, Xia Kui has already agreed, the cooperation between the farmer and the Mo family, and strictly ordered Tian Meng not to have any more incidents."
In the small courtyard, the Zhu family said to Zhao Shuang, the big red mask was hanging high, and the joy was visible.
Did Changpingjun exert his strength in the back?
Whether it is with the Mohists or with Confucianism, it is not what Changping Jun wants to see at this moment.
Zhao Shuang leaned on the railing and toasted a glass of wine.
"In this way, I wish you and me a happy cooperation. This land of Dongjun will be the world of you and me from now on. ”
"Brother, please, but I also heard a news recently, Luo Wang suffered a big loss in the Chu State, and suffered heavy losses, and I am afraid that it will be much more stable recently. I don't know what my brother's opinion is about the net? ”
"What do you mean?"
"The net has been rampant for a long time, and if you and I work together, we may not be able to get rid of this trouble."
Is this also what Changping-kun means? It seems that the internal situation of the Qin State is already very grim.
Zhao Shuang smiled, and the wine glass in his hand was raised a few points.
"It's an interesting proposal."
