At the feet of the Son of Heaven, it is not the king's land. Regardless of Qin Chu, even if it is the altar of the two sects, it is still under the feet of Zhou Tianzi.

No matter how strong the vassal country is, this dynasty is still the Zhou Dynasty.

However, since the reign of King You of Zhou, the Western Zhou Dynasty perished, the nascent Eastern Zhou Dynasty was weak, and the vassal states rose up one after another, but they still wanted to see the Son of Heaven.

In fact, there are still some things that have not been written in the so-called history. For example, the agreement of the king. Since the queen of Zhou You, the real power of Zhou Tianzi has been weakened, but he is still the son of heaven, so no matter which prince dares to take charge of the government on his behalf. But because Zhou Tianzi's military and political power have been lost, he can only retreat to the next best thing and control one place.

The south of Southern Chu, north of Nanban, Mengcheng of Mengzhou, is this place.

There is no dispute between the Seven Kingdoms, no princes in power, even the city lord of the Ji clan does not have much jurisdiction over the people, and allows them to develop freely and peacefully.

But because of the transformation of three hundred years, the surname Ji is still very influential, and the city lords of the past dynasties have loved the people like sons, and the people love them, so nine times out of ten, the people of the world are looking forward to Ji's Zhou Tianzi to take charge of the world again. This is also taboo in the vassal states.

According to some wild historical records, when the Jin Kingdom was the most successful, the King of Jin looked forward to the restoration of the Ji family, so as to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but the princes of the Quartet were dissatisfied, which caused the later Zhao Wei and Han to divide the Jin Kingdom. But this is wild history after all, and it can't be the truth. However, it is true that the Ji family changed his surname. Today's city lord of Mengcheng is not surnamed Ji, but surnamed Jiang.

When the Wei soldiers saw the totem on the curtain, they hurriedly dismounted and bowed, "See Zhou Tian...... No, see the city lord of Meng Chengjiang. ”

A man's laughter came from inside the car, very free, but extremely green, so that people knew that it was a teenager.

"Xing Cheng's soldiers are really good, and they changed their words quickly, avoiding their taboos. But I'm not the city lord of Mengcheng, the city lord is not surnamed Jiang now, but I'm called Jiang Guyu. ”

The young man had already stepped out of the carriage as he spoke, and he looked to be about the same age as Chu Fei, dressed in a blue and purple cloth robe, with an emerald green bat ring around his waist, and brown leather boots under his feet inlaid with a circle of gold wire. It looks like the collocation is bland.

But if it is matched with the confidence between the young man's eyebrows, the handsomeness contained in his cheeks, and the calmness revealed in the smile at the corner of his mouth, it can't be dull again.

As the Zhou Dynasty Ji clan, he was born with the atmosphere of the royal family, and for more than 100 years, although he deliberately hidden, he could not hide it, no wonder he was close to the people.

In fact, Zhou Tianzi's pressure on the vassal states has been conceived again and again, and ten years ago, he resigned from the position of city lord, and the Zhi clan of the Jin State was in charge on his behalf, which is why Ye Shi linked Jin and Meng.

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, don't blame the deputy city lord of Wangjiang. The soldier's head was lowered.

"I knew that Xingcheng of Wei State had Haotian incense and fire money, and now it seems that it is the same. In the troubled times, although it is natural, I am afraid that this is a little far away from Xingcheng, right?" Who knows, there is a woman in the car who is talking, and in her voice, it is not difficult to identify the age that is not very old, and the age is similar to that of Jiang Guyu in front of him.

"This ...... The little one who sees the wealth is intended, and the sin deserves ten thousand deaths. The soldier said in a deep voice.

"Seeing us and others, you are still neither humble nor arrogant, Your Excellency's mind is not a city soldier can do it. The woman in the car said with a smile.

"In the troubled times of the Seven Kingdoms, it is not as good as Mengcheng, it is easy for officials to accumulate wealth, but it is difficult to be a man. Although it is still not easy to be a small official, it is not difficult to save your life. ”

After the soldier said this, his head seemed to touch the ground.

None of the people present spoke again, because Jiang Guyu did not speak, and neither did the woman in the car.

They didn't care about the difficulty of what the soldiers said, but the four words "no better than Mengcheng".

Actually, this is what the head of the soldier said. He has no knowledge, this sentence may be the most exquisite sentence he said in his life, but the reason why he said it is the most exquisite and in place. I'm afraid it's not that his brain turns fast, but because it's the words of the heart, the heartfelt words of the people of the world.

The troubled times of the Seven Kingdoms are no better than Mengcheng. Meng Cheng is prosperous, can he rule the Seven Kingdoms?

For a long time, Jiang Guyu still didn't speak.

The head of the soldier who bowed his head and kowtowed, during this period of time, was like a defeated rooster, and his head was dejected.

After a long time, someone still spoke, but it was not them, but the people of another carriage.

Chu Fei, Chu Jingyi.

He sighed and said, "Why?"

Jiang Guyu frowned and said, "What?"

Chu Fei said again: "Why not?"

Jiang Guyu said in a deep voice: "Why bother?"

Chu Fei smiled slightly and said, "Any." ”

Jiang Guyu shook his head and said helplessly: "Why bother?"

Chu Fei looked into the distance and said, "Why is this so?"

Jiang Guyu couldn't see Chu Fei behind the curtain, but he also looked into the distance and said, "Why not?"

Chu Fei stopped talking, and there was silence in the carriage for a while.

The silence will eventually be broken, and Jiang Guyu is such a person: "What do you call Your Excellency?"

"Chu Jingyi. ”

"Chu Jingyi......" In the other carriage, the girl said softly.

In fact, the eight "He" of the two are not simple. It's just a lot of taboos, so neither of them said it so clearly.

"Why let the princes fight, the world belongs to Zhou Tianzi?"

"However, the seven kingdoms in the world are in turmoil, and it is not for the Son of Heaven to be peaceful. ”

"Why don't you calm the world in troubled times and return to the Ji dynasty?"

"Why bother, the lives of the living. ”

"No one will deny the Great Zhou Emperor of the Son of Heaven. ”

"Why bother to stir Meng Cheng into this muddy water?"

"The world is originally the Great Zhou, you say that, why is this?"

"Although the world is in turmoil, the four sects have gradually eased the troubled times, why not?"

When "why not", Jiang Guyu had a smile on his face and was very pleased.

It is difficult for others to guess that it is the "Four Sects", but Chu Fei is not an outsider. Although he didn't know that he was originally a member of the Four Sects, but these days, after Long Ying's description, he could only guess that it was the Four Sects.

Just as this hazy conversation ended, a anxious soldier ran out of Xingcheng in the distance, saw the head of the soldier who took the lead in speaking, and hurriedly said: "Boss Xiao, Boss Xiao." ”

"What's the panic, how many times have you said that you want to call me Xiao to join the army!" the soldier said angrily.

"Yes, yes, Xiao joined the army, there is an emergency, your family is urgent. The soldier panted. All the way, he didn't see the people coming down from the carriage, let alone the totem on the curtain.

"Bullshit, what emergency can there be at home?" The soldier surnamed Xiao was very angry, as if his face had made this one clean.

This scene was very embarrassing, but Long Ying didn't think so. In the face of the Son of Heaven, this "Xiao Joins the Army" is neither humble nor arrogant, and when his subordinates arrived, he was not panicked because of the rudeness of his subordinates, and he was calm. On the other hand, Jiang Guyu is also looked at with ordinary eyes, without revealing a trace of the breath of the Son of Heaven.

The so-called pro-people is probably like this. Zhou Tianzi is close to the people, the four sects are close to the people, but only the four states are foreign, and the princes of the two religions and seven countries are not close to the people.

"Since there is something at home, it is better for Xiao to join the army and go back early. Jiang Guyu broke the embarrassing situation.

"State affairs are greater than family affairs. Xiao replied.

Jiang Guyu smiled slightly, and asked at Chu Fei's carriage, "Brother Chu, what do you think?"

Chu Fei's face was pale, but he still laughed because of this sentence, "Yuanfang, what do you think", it turned out to be from here.

"Qi Zheng, what do you think?" Chu Fei asked with interest.

Qi Ergou looked at "Zhou Tianzi" in front of him, and did not feel any nervousness, but remembered the scene when Chu Fei stood in front of him and talked about the world a long, long time ago, and then, he said the answer that Chu Fei gave him:

Self-cultivation and Qi family rule the country and level the world!

"That's a good point!" Jiang Guyu's eyes suddenly lit up and praised.

Xiao joined the army and understood the meaning of Jiang Guyu. If you want the world to be peaceful, maybe the problem lies with you, but you can't completely pin your trust on you. Xingcheng was peaceful on the surface, but in fact, it had long been a thorn in the side of the nobles of Wei State, and a piece of stinky meat had harmed the pot full of soup.

But these soldiers in Xingcheng don't want to, the full man doesn't know that the hungry man is hungry, how can there be a person in the world who is born to be a traitor and a great evil, and he is forced to do so because of the situation.

But now, Zhou Tianzi has spoken, first cultivate the Qi family, and start with the management of Xingcheng in order to calm the pressure exerted by the Wei State.

Xiao Shenjun sighed, looked at the soldier and asked, "What's going on at home?"

"My sister-in-law gave birth. ”

"Boys, girls?"

"Boy. ”

Xiao Shenjun really couldn't calm down now, and hurriedly looked at Jiang Guyu, as if he wanted to ask for instructions.

Jiang Guyu smiled and said: "For such an important matter, you are a father, so you naturally want to go back." ”

Hearing Jiang Guyu's words, Xiao Senjun couldn't be quiet anymore, and hurriedly drove his horse to turn around, but before leaving, he still glanced at Qi Ergou in the carriage and asked, "Your Excellency's Avenue ideal must have been taught by the little gentleman in the car, but I don't know where you learned?"

Qi Ergou said: "Jingyi and I are both from Qin, we are both children of peasant families, and we don't have the money to hire any teachers, so we can be regarded as self-taught." ”

Xiao Senjun paused for a moment after hearing this, but he didn't say anything more, and rode away.

When he returned to Xingcheng, the soldier with him still asked curiously, "Boss, did such a big fish let him run away like this?"

Xiao Shenjun said: "The fish is big, but people like you and me may not be able to eat it at all." Besides, the Son of Heaven spoke, what is there to pity. But in the future, this work will not be able to continue. ”

The future is very confused, but Boss Xiao's words are happy, in fact, he has already had enough of the days of licking blood and collecting money from the knife, not only him, but his brothers also think so.

"But if we let go of this work, Xing Cheng will not be able to stay anymore, what will we do in the future?" the soldier asked.

The days are not as good as the day, so they have to change, but there has to be a plan, so what about the future?

They were prodigal prisoners, and although their current family business came from Xingcheng, they were still strangers, strangers without a home. If you really want to "go home", it must be where your heart is.

"The Seven Kingdoms are in the midst of reform, but Qin is the most prosperous, and the little gentleman just now is also from Qin, so he naturally wants to go to Qin to settle down. Xiao Senjun said.

"Isn't this treason?" the soldier asked.

"We are not from Wei in the first place, and Wei doesn't treat us as human beings. Besides, the world is from the Great Zhou Dynasty, where did the treason come from?" Xiao said.

"In that case, if you go, you will go, and your home will follow?" the soldier asked again.

"Of course, how can the family stay in this land of tigers and wolves. Oh, by the way, I don't have a name yet, do I?" said Xiao Shenjun, suddenly remembering the newborn heir.

"Exactly, my sister-in-law is also looking forward to you going back and quickly naming the child. The soldier who came to call Xiao to join the army said.

"Why bother, why not, why bother...... Yes, yes, the name that Mr. Xiao and the City Lord Jiang said, Xiao He!"

"Xiao He...... Xiao He ...... Good name, good name...... Hahaha......" The soldiers who followed laughed and rode away.

Looking at the Xingcheng soldiers who were far away, Chu Fei really settled down.

Then, the mouthful of blood pressed in his chest spurted out. This time, there was more blood than the last time.

"Jingyi! Jingyi!" Long Ying, who was on the side, saw this scene and hurriedly stepped forward and shouted.

Jiang Guyu heard the panic of the people in the car, and hurriedly entered Chu Fei's carriage, and then, the woman in the other carriage also got out of the carriage.

In the haze, Chu Fei looked at the scene in front of him, a crimson afterimage came into view, followed by a fragrance of roses, red phoenix eyes, cherry lips, and an otherworldly ancient girl appeared in front of him when he was about to fall unconscious.

Then, for some reason, a warm current poured into my heart......

"Who are you?"

"My name is Jiang Xiyue. ”

Chu Fei smiled subconsciously, he didn't seem to have felt this way in his previous life:

It turns out that this is the taste of first love.

But the smell of this first love seemed to be stronger, and the warm current continued to heat up, beyond the temperature he could tolerate, and a mouthful of blood rushed out of his mouth.

Chu Fei passed out completely......
