324 status is different in an instant!
Don't say anything else - even if you can invite the Pingnan sword on Xiong Wuliang's waist to come to the mansion as a guest, it will give you enough face.
In the past, that sword symbolized the arrival of the King of Chu!
Xiong Wuliang had a Pingnan sword hanging from his waist, and he came swaggering in a bronze chariot, and any minister had to lose his little face and say a few good words in a soft voice.
Everyone knows that the age of our King Chu is not too young, and after the King of Chu returns to heaven and the crown prince Mi Heng ascends the throne, Xiong Wuliang, Marquis of Quyang, will definitely be in power in the Chu State.
Make a very disrespectful imagination - the king of Chu is almost fifty years old, and it is estimated that he will be able to live for another twenty years.
In other words, at most, twenty years later, Xiong Wuliang will become the most terrifying minister in the history of the Chu State! An important minister who holds the Pingnan sword!
Moreover...... Ahem, look at the body fat rate of King Chu Huai...... It is estimated that it is enough to live for another twenty years......
Think about it twenty years later, how old is Xiong Wuliang? Not yet forty years old!
At least it can hold the government for decades!
Oh, my God!
With such a promising potential stock, which minister doesn't want to climb the relationship? Even if he doesn't live to that time, as long as Xiong Wuliang takes care of the descendants of the family a little, it will be a great benefit!
I can't care about the face.
is just one sentence - at all costs, you must have a good relationship with Xiong Wuliang!
The entire Yingdu city is staggered, and Xiong Wuliang lingers on various ministers' mansions every day...... ate with a mouth full of oil, and received hundreds of carts of generous gifts.
That's a lot of money!
"Quyang Hou is young and promising, and the old man is ashamed!"
"The Marquis of Quyang is my Great Chu God of War! Counting the princes who have fought on the battlefield for only a few years, the results are terrifying! It's really a godsend! ”
"It is really an honor for the prince to come to the minister's house as a guest...... This is the only daughter of the minister...... Hurry up and pour wine for Quyang Hou! ”
"I am willing to follow the banner of the prince and serve the prince in the future!"
……
King Chu Huai was still immersed in the joy of hegemony and could not extricate himself, and ordered the annual tax to be reduced by half...... As soon as this order came out, the whole country rejoiced.
The entire capital city was plunged into a sea of joy.
The ministers who originally belonged to the Zhaoju party had close contacts with the hot Quyang Marquis; The common people on the streets and in the countryside admired the great military exploits of the Marquis of Quyang, and by the way, they were grateful for the reduced taxes......
Only the old Ling Yin Zhaoju seemed to admit his failure, and he kept shrinking in the mansion and said that he couldn't get sick.
The people of the Zhao clan rarely appear in the public's field of vision.
Even the news of Zhaokong, one of the 'three evils', disappeared in the ears of the people of Yingdu - all kinds of chaos caused in Zhaofu after Zhaokong went crazy were usually jokes talked about by the whole city.
In short, Zhaoju is hiding himself and fading out of people's sight...... Let Xiong Wuliang encroach and co-opt the political forces that once belonged to Zhaoju.
I don't know if the old fox has accepted his fate, or if he is holding back some vicious ideas......
……
The spring breeze is proud.
At the beginning of April, Xiong Wuliang led his own troops and left Yingdu - in the past, Xiong Wuliang was shouted and beaten by the princes and nobles of Yingdu, resulting in no one to see him off every time he left Yingdu...... The process of leaving Yingdu this time was unprecedentedly lively.
Dozens of ministers had tears in their eyes, affectionately held Xiong Wuliang's hand, and sent them all the way out of Yingdu ten miles away.
drank a few Chu wine in the pavilion to see him off, and reluctantly folded willows to express his reluctance to Xiong Wuliang to leave Yingdu.
"Quyang Hou, say goodbye today, I don't know when we will see each other......" A minister wiped his tears and said affectionately.
"You must take care on the road!"
"When you come to Yingdu again, you must come to the old mansion as a guest...... The little girl thinks about the majesty of the prince every day in the house. ”
Xiong Wuliang was not disappointed, and happily said goodbye to the ministers one by one, and then embarked on the road back to the fiefdom.
The Quyang Hou Banner that is missing a corner is fluttering in hunting, and the elite soldiers are bright in armor...... The old peasants of Chu who met on the road had to bow down to Xiong Wuliang's bronze chariot with respect-
"Long live Quyang Hou!"
"Long live Da Sima!"
It is precisely because of the revenge victory of the Marquis of Quyang that the taxes that all the Chu people have to bear this year have been greatly reduced...... Of course, this kindness must be remembered on Xiong Wuliang!
……
Quyang County, Quyang Hou Mansion.
The house was lit up and down, and the servants polished every crevice with their hands and feet—and everyone's faces were filled with dazzling brilliance.
This victory of the lord of his own family is also of great significance to the Hou Mansion!
Not only the glory of victory, but also the joy of revenge!
At the beginning, the old prince and marquis died in the hands of Sima Cuo and Zhu Liji, and now when the little prince and marquis flew to seize the Wuguan, he slashed Sima An, the son of Sima Cuo; and the fire burned to death the old thief...... It can be regarded as a good reincarnation of heaven, and it is a revenge!
In the world of the Warring States Period, the people's customs are happy and revenge-now that the little prince is avenging the old prince, there is no greater joy than this!
Some of the old servants were doing their work, and at the same time they remembered the good things of the old lord...... I can't help but sigh.
Ji Yi is restless these days, and looks at the bronze mirror every day. Dressed in a splendid green dress, he dressed himself up in a glorious light.
She was originally a delicate and beautiful woman, but now she wears a beautiful green robe and a pearl decoration on her head, and she looks even more bright and radiant—solemn and lively, gorgeous and elegant, so that the servants in the house have to walk with their heads down.
Everyone knows that the little lady is waiting for the lord to return!
"Xiong Wuliang is coming back." Ying Zhuo said to Xiaoyi, and her tone was very complicated—not like an inquiry, not like an exclamation, not like a statement.
Xiaoyi smiled and nodded, a hint of ruddy appeared on her beautiful face, and then stared at Yingzhuo a little ambiguously, seeing that the latter was uncomfortable.
"You...... Why do you think of me like that? Ying Zhuo was a little nervous.
Ji Yi covered her mouth and smiled, looking very lively - since Ying Zhuo rescued Xiong Wuliang from the sword of the Black Ice Platform assassin once, his identity has risen, and he is no longer a 'maid's maid'...... Of course, Ji Yi has never called Yingzhuo as a maid, and she has always been a sister.
Ying Zhuo's identity alone, the princess of Qin, is destined to be underestimated.
Of course, Yingzhuo's heart is also very complicated now......
From the most laid-back concubine to the busiest servant, everyone had a big smile on their faces, waiting eagerly for the victorious lord to return home.
Ying Zhuo looks out of place in this mansion.
To say that Xiong Wuliang did not die under the sword of the Qin people really made Ying Zhuo breathe a sigh of relief...... But Qin Guo was beaten by this young boy and bowed his head to make peace, which made Ying Zhuo unwilling.
The arrogance of the old Qin people was mixed with other emotions, and Ying Zhuo's heart was really complicated.
Five flavors are mixed!
"The Lord is back! The Lord is back! Outside the house, there was a sudden shouting!
Ji Yi stood up suddenly, and her face instantly turned red!
Ying Zhuo somehow got it, and there was a hint of blush on his face...... Ying Zhuo gritted his silver teeth and pressed the inexplicable throbbing in his heart...... What's wrong with me?
"Back to the two ladies - it's really the lord who is back!" Xiao Bai outside the door ran over, overjoyed.
Ji Yi was overjoyed!
Ying Zhuo didn't have time to care about the nonsense in Xiaobai's mouth, and asked with shame: "Since Mi Liang is back, why didn't you enter the mansion for a long time?" ”
On Xiaobai's face, a strange expression appeared-
……
