Great Qin Kyoto, Showa 73 years, Qin Wu King Qin Shi collapsed, tens of thousands of funeral procession mighty, towards the suburbs of the city Yiling Mountain, white silk thousands of silk, goose feathers and heavy snow never stopped, a generation of heroes finally passed away, the romance must look at the present people.

King Wu died, when the bones were not cold, the princes in the palace competed for power, blood filled the palace wall, and the prince Qin Huangyang bore the brunt of it, and died inexplicably in his residence, and the cause of death became a mystery.

According to the Great Qin ritual system, the crown prince should ascend the throne after the death of the first emperor, but the road to becoming an emperor is extremely dangerous and abnormal, the prince died, and the rest of the princes have the opportunity to win the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

In addition to last year's young nine sons Qin Yu, the remaining seven sons have their own fiefdoms, with the intensification of the battle for the throne, even the most indisputable Qin Yu has also been secretly poisoned, several times the assassination of the young son's swordsmanship teacher and the servants of the desperate protection to pick up a life, the palace is not able to stay, the cold heart of the young son with a few Hu Cong out of the imperial city overnight, since then the sea is wide by the fish jump, the sky is high and the birds fly, the world is so big, even if he wants to find him with the means of his royal brothers, it will take a lot of effort.

After a long journey of more than a month, the ninth prince Qin Yu and his entourage finally came to the border of Jizhou, as long as they entered Jizhou City, with his uncle who had led Jizhou for more than ten years, it would be considered temporary peace.

The Surabaya River on the outskirts of Jizhou City, a wooden bridge lies across the turbulent river, the wooden bridge is about ten meters long, it is very majestic and magnificent at the glance, it is precisely because of its existence that the original Surabaya moat has become a thoroughfare.

At noon, pedestrians rushed past the Surabaya Bridge named after the river, and a little girl with two ponytails was bouncing around her mother with a string of sugar gourds in her hand, revealing the innocence of a child.

"Mother, this sugar gourd is sweet, you can also taste one. The little girl's pink little hand raised her baby-like sugar gourd, in the little girl's simple cognition, there are good things to share with her mother, and she will feel happy when she sees her mother smiling.

"Young fisherman, this sugar gourd has been eaten many times, and I am tired of eating it, so you can eat it slowly by yourself." The girl raised her little hand high to share with her, and the woman couldn't help but squat down and touch the girl's little head, with a doting face.

The middle-aged woman's name is Xu Qingwan, married to a poor sour Xiucai in Heze County in the early years, in the sixty-eighth year of the Show, the advent of the young fishery is self-evident for the joy of the middle-aged woman's Xiucai, but it also makes the already poor small family add more wind, frost, rain and snow, that year, the poor sour Xiucai joined the army, and sent some silver taels to the family every month, and the life is still self-sufficient.

However, Xiucai joined the army for less than two years, Jizhou, which is located in the southern frontier of Daqin, was invaded by the Xinjiang Niu State, and in the process of quelling the chaos, Xiucai, who had six heads of Xinjiang barbarians on horseback, was surrounded and suppressed by the enemy, and was finally outnumbered, and the enemy head representing the military merits was also divided by the later robes to change the military merits, but unfortunately the scholars who volunteered to be in danger for the family ended up making wedding dresses for others.

In this way, without the silver taels that Xiucai sent to his home every month, the life that was not rich became more and more difficult, so Xu Qingwan was quite proficient in needlework, and she was able to live with this difficulty, and finally there was a mouthful of food for the two of them, although life was hard, but watching her daughter grow up day by day, Xu Qingwan felt that although life was bitter, it was sweet.

A few ruffian-like people, from the other side of the river to the bridge, these people walked on the six relatives do not recognize the pace, although the world is big, Lao Tzu's biggest omission look, although very underbeaten, but where they pass the crowd is afraid to avoid it, these people are not good at a glance, there is no need to get into trouble.

"Look, look at your paralysis, and look at your eyeballs. A thin guy with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks yelled at the middle-aged man who was just looking at them next to him, "Don't get away, I can't do it myself, uncle?"

The middle-aged man looks like the kind of honest farmer, the other party has a knife on his body, arrogant and unreasonable, arrogant and domineering, this is not something he can afford to provoke, after hearing the words, he hung his head and hurriedly left, just want to stay away from this gang of fierce gods and evil people as soon as possible.

The monkey cheek face saw that the other party was quite interesting, the corners of the mouth rose, and then snorted disdainfully, scolding it for being a soft-footed shrimp, five big and three thick, but it was an embroidered pillow that was not useful.

"Big brother, those stinky little beggars who spoil our good deeds must not be let go, I can't wait to disembowel them now, I want to see how many guts these little children have in their stomachs. The monkey cheek face, who had obviously just finished taking the middle-aged man's breath, said to a man in the center of the group.

"Third brother, do you still need to say this? The eldest brother has his own conclusion, and we just listen to the eldest brother. Before the boss in the middle could speak, the sturdy man beside him preemptively taught the monkey cheek face a lesson.

"What the second brother said is that I said too much. The monkey's cheek face was flattering, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes for this stout man.

The man known as the eldest brother has always said nothing, his expression is like water, and his steady steps are in stark contrast to the domineering posture of his younger brothers, obviously this middle-aged man who is the eldest brother is much more mature and sophisticated.

"The previous defeat in the city made the brothers unhappy, and I can understand that, if we meet again next time, it will definitely make those cubs unable to eat and walk around. ”

Hearing the eldest brother's words, these younger brothers shouted that the eldest brother was wise, and it was such flattering and sycophant, and he tried his best to flatter and flatter. However, the man who was called the second brother by the monkey cheek face said that it should be so, and then there was no follow-up, and he was not as flattering as others.

At the same time, an eight or nine-year-old boy was about to pass by in front of the little girl's young fisherman, the little boy was dressed in a linen cloth coat, although it was an ordinary peasant dress, but the unique luxury on the body could not be concealed, the little girl looked at the little boy and smiled, his eyes were like a crescent moon, the little boy was stunned after seeing it, and then returned a slightly stiff smile to the little girl.

Although the little girl felt that the little brother in front of her, who was not a few years older than herself, had a strange smile, she was still about to step forward, and was just about to leave, when an old man behind the boy stepped forward and blocked the girl's advance with his hand.

"Grandpa He, it's out of the way. Of course, the boy knew why the old man had done this, but the girl in front of him gave him the impression that he was harmless and innocent.

"Yes, Childe, it's the old man who is too sensitive. "The old man knows that he is at a loss, and he no longer stops him, if the boy is still too young to see people's kung fu, then the old man has experienced too many storms in his life, and he has come into contact with countless people of the three religions and nine streams, and he can be said to be perfect.

did not stop the little girl anymore, the old man still remained vigilant, the ancients were careful, and the ship of ten thousand years was carefully made, which was also the reason why their group was able to come here.

"Big brother, this is the first sugar gourd my mother bought for me, na, give you one. Without the interference of the old man, the girl came to the boy smoothly, and raised the string of beloved sugar gourds with her little hand, which made the boy laugh dumbly because she pretended to be generous and could not hide her heartache, and the old man next to him was stunned, and he couldn't remember how long the boy hadn't laughed so well.

"Then I'm going to bite it!" The boy in a good mood couldn't help but want to tease this girl younger than himself on a whim, but he thought it was very funny.

"Big brother, do you eat, I don't feel distressed, really. For some reason, the girl only felt very kind when she saw this big brother for the first time, so she wanted to share her good things with him now, but when she thought of not knowing when she would be able to eat it again after eating, she felt a little distressed, and she was reluctant to intertwine with the contradiction that had already been said on her face, which was very funny.

"Childe, it looks like we're going to be in trouble" Looking at the group of people walking on the bridge, the old man spoke lightly, interrupting the conversation between the boy and the girl.

"Yo, beauty, our boss wants to invite you to the house for tea, don't you think?" said the monkey cheek with a playful face.

The group of people with monkey cheeks have not been going well recently, they haven't touched meat for a few days, and when they saw Xu Qingwan, a beautiful woman, they moved their minds, and it can be seen that this lady and the old man are not familiar with each other, and the monkey cheek face thinks that there are a lot of people on his side, and the other party will not help if he is interested, even if he helps, he is not afraid, these brothers are mixed with the rivers and lakes, and they are not less beaten, and it is not a trivial matter to put them down in three or two.

"Brothers, go up together, take this girl and go back to drinking. Monkey cheek face gave an order, except for the boss and the second child, the remaining six people followed behind Monkey cheek face and hugged Xu Qingwan...

"I'll see who dares. The boy drank in a deep voice, and the little girl Youyu at this time was already so frightened that she hid in Xu Qingwan's arms, and her body couldn't help but tremble.

"Then I'll take you first. The monkey cheek face who rushed to the front came to the boy's side, and the white swaying sword was raised high, and at the same time, the old man beside the boy had also grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist, and the sword was unsheathed by more than an inch, and the killing machine instantly covered all around.

The big knife in the hand of the monkey cheek face swung down suddenly, but the boy under the blade was exceptionally calm, and the monkey cheek face was puzzled, is this child not afraid of death?

The long sword in the old man's hand was unsheathed, and the sound of the sword resounded through the sky, seeing that the long sword was about to contact the blade, with a whoosh, the big knife was suddenly hit by a huge force, and the blade flew out more than ten zhang before it stopped, and the monkey's cheek face was also shocked back several zhang distance by this force.

The monkey's cheeks, whose palms trembled, and his brothers, who had long since stopped walking, looked at each other, unsure what was going on.

The old man was stunned for a moment, then looked behind him, and finally looked at a young man riding a green ox, thoughtfully.
