It was early summer, and the sky was just right.

Xiong Wuliang sat in a small car that was not very luxurious, leisurely and went straight to Quyang.

The only one who accompanied him was the coachman.

King Chu Huai offered to return to the fief to his nephew, but there was really no reason to refuse.

Although he was still a little reluctant to be his nephew, and wanted to stay in the palace to cultivate him more, Xiong Wuliang was resolute, and the crown prince Mi Heng was on the side to help, and the king of Chu was not good at forcibly blocking him.

Although Mi Liang, who inherited the lord of Quyang Jun, has a prominent title, he is young and is not taken seriously. In addition, he has been in the palace for a long time, and there are few fox friends and dog friends, so there is no one to send him on this trip.

On the contrary, it was Dr. Qu Yuan of Sanlu who sent a letter to congratulate the prince of Mi Liang on his inheritance!

He also gave a few words of advice in the letter.

What is the content: Quyang is on the verge of the border of the Yue country, the Yue people are ferocious, and they have repeatedly violated the border, which makes Xiong Wuliang cautious......

Xiong Wuliang probably knew why Qu Yuan was more friendly to him.

First, because he was in the palace before, he helped Qu Yuan persuade King Chu Huai, and invisibly helped Qu Yuan to strike at the arrogance of his rival Zhaoju.

The second is that his father Xiong Wei died in a bloody battle with the Qin army, and Qu Yuan, as a famous anti-Qin faction and an impassioned patriotic minister, has three points of pity and friendship for himself after being a loyal martyr.

Regarding Qu Yuan's prompt, Xiong Wu knew it in his conscience, but he was not very worried.

Although the Yue people were ferocious, once they walked out of the barren mountains and fought in formation, their combat effectiveness was far inferior to that of the Chu army.

Those Yue people went out of the mountain, at most, they plundered the people, and they didn't have the courage to attack Quyang City - so Xiong Wuliang's personal safety still didn't have to worry.

The carriages and horses were sparkling, and they went straight out of the Yingdu City.

At the Shili Pavilion, there was actually a vote of people waiting early!

Xiong Wuliang looked at it, and the leader was the prince Mi Heng, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

"How dare Wu Liang bother the prince to send ...... in person?"

Mi waved his hand horizontally, signaling that there was no need to be polite, and said to Xiong Wuliang: "Now you have escaped from the cage of Yingdu...... Brother Clan is doing for you today. ”

After that, he took the two jue wine from the hands of the guards on the side, handed one of them to Xiong Wuliang, and drank the other cup in one go!

Putting down the wine lord, Mi Heng smiled and said: "When it is autumn, I will go to your fiefdom for autumn hunting, and I won't have to give birth to it at that time." ”

Xiong Wuliang knew that once the prince came to his fiefdom to hunt, it would release a clear signal - the young Quyang Jun Mi Liang would be the next Chu king's cronies, and the future Chu king trusted Xiong Wuliang very much.

In this way, whoever dares to bully Xiong Wuliang will naturally weigh it carefully in his heart.

Xiong Wu's conscience was a little moved, and he arched his hand at Mi Heng: "A word is a decision, and the younger brother is waiting for the prince to patrol the hunt." ”

Mi Heng shook his hand: "These fifty armor soldiers are all good guards in the palace, and this prince ordered them to escort you back to Quyang." ”

Xiong Wu's conscience warmed, and he blurted out: "Prince...... If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to my Quyang for help. ”

Mi Heng was stunned for a moment, and then laughed indifferently: "Okay! I have received your kindness. ”

Seeing that Mi Heng didn't care, Xiong Wuliang didn't say much.

Perhaps at this time, Mi Heng still felt that he was the prince of the powerful Chu State, and he didn't need the promise of his own little Qu Yangjun.

But after a few years, the state of Chu will decline greatly, and it will no longer be a strong country.

At that time, Mi Heng, the prince of Chu, even wanted to go to other countries as hostages.

Hostages, that's life-threatening.

On the contrary, Xiong Wuliang is confident that in a few years, Quyang will definitely have considerable strength under his own construction!

At that time, his own help will definitely not be small for the down-and-out prince!

……

A few days later.

"The last general, Zhong Hua! Welcome to the little prince! A slightly rough voice woke up Xiong Wuliang, who was asleep in the car.

The bumpy road for several days made Xiong Wuliang dizzy.

He fixed his eyes and saw a burly middle-aged man in front of him with a haggard face, dressed in a full suit of armor, half-kneeling in front of his car.

Xiong Wuliang rubbed his eyes and sat up straight: "Zhong Hua? ”

He is no stranger to the name.

This Zhong Hua is his father Xiong Wei's old subordinate, and he once served as an important position as the commander of the pro-military battalion by Xiong Wei's side. Over the years, he has saved the life of Lao Xiong Wei at least three times.

Absolute hardcore cronies.

"General Zhong, long time no see." Such a loyal old trilogy was the greatest wealth of the aristocratic lord during the Warring States Period, and of course Xiong Wuliang would not be slow to wait, and immediately got up from the car to salute.

Zhong Hua hurriedly turned sideways and let go of Xiong Wuliang's composition: "Don't dare to be a courtesy for the little prince...... The last general was incompetent, the guards were ineffective, and he failed to protect the old prince...... Please punish the little boy! ”

Zhong Hua was about to shed tears as he spoke.

Xiong Wuliang helped Zhong Hua up: "My father's resistance to Qin and martyrdom is the glory of Quyang. General Zhong fought to the death in the battle of Danyang, stabbing dozens of Qin troops, seriously injured and unconscious, and he was already responsible. The death of the ancestor should be recorded on the head of the Qin people, and he should not do General Zhong's business. ”

Having been recognized by Xiong Wuliang seemed to mean a lot to Zhong Hua - he breathed a deep sigh of relief, and it seemed that the spiritual shackles that he had borne for a long time had been relieved.

Zhong Hua bowed his head deeply: "I am willing to die for the little son...... The little boy can just call the name of the last general. ”

"Then this son will call you Uncle Zhong." Xiong Wuliang smiled and waved his hand: "It's already in Quyang?" ”

Zhong Hua's spirit perked up: "Thirty miles ahead, it is the Quyang realm. The subordinates estimated that the little prince had arrived in the fiefdom today, so he led a group of old princes to wait here early. ”

Behind Zhong Hua, more than thirty burly men bowed their hands to Xiong Wuliang together: "See Childe!" We are all old princes and marquis. ”

Zhong Hua: "The old monarch and the marquis originally had eight hundred trilogies. In the bloody battle with the Qin army in Danyang, almost all the brothers died in battle to protect the old prince, and the only ones who can still move at the moment are the thirty-five people in front of them. ”

Thirty-five men knelt on the ground together, crying: "We are incompetent, and we have failed to protect the safety of the old prince and marquis......"

Xiong Wuliang was greatly moved, got out of the car, and personally helped everyone up.

"The Qin people owe me the blood debt of the Chu people, so naturally I will have to repay it sooner or later. Xiong Wuliang has always wanted to develop the fiefdom and revive the prestige of Quyang Jun, and now with the support of you, my son is much more down-to-earth. ”

Everyone shouted in unison: "I am willing to die for the little prince." ”

Xiong Wuliang encouraged him, and everyone gathered together and marched towards Quyang.

In Zhong Hua's mouth, Xiong Wuliang also had a general understanding of the current situation of the fiefdom.

The whole of Quyang has a population of about 3,000 households, with a total of almost 15,000 people.

This is a lot of money, and it has far exceeded the regulations of the monarch, and even the average marquis is only worthy of a thousand households.

It can be seen from this that King Chu Huai's treatment of Quyang Jun is indeed not thin.

Xiong Wuliang knew it at this time: he had land in his hands, manpower, and more than thirty capable and completely trustworthy troops in front of him.

Such an entrepreneurial team, in terms of configuration, is definitely not low.

With his knowledge of 2,000 years later, existing resources and team, it is not difficult to make a earth-shaking change in Quyang within a year or two.
