Chapter 117: What Are You, Worthy of Advice from Benjun?
Blood and fire are the themes of the Great Qin sacrifice.
The blood flowed down the grooves under the bronze plate, under everyone's feet, and finally out of the temple.
Part of it flows into the Yonghe River, and part of it seeps into the foundation.
Half of Yongcheng can smell the smell of blood.
And almost all the powerful people in Yongcheng gathered outside the temple.
They didn't care what Ying Chengcheng said to the ancestors in the temple.
In their opinion, it is nothing more than some words that boast of military exploits and praise of ancestors.
They just waited quietly.
At noon, the gate of the temple opened.
Ying Chengcheng walked out of the temple first, and saw a group of people in various clothes swarming towards him.
Ying Cheng's heart trembled suddenly, his right hand had already grasped the hilt of the sword, and he shouted in a deep voice:
"Guard!"
Bafu, Hexagram Fu and other family soldiers quickly stood beside Ying Cheng Chan and protected Ying Cheng Tuan Tuan in the middle.
However, what Ying Chengcheng didn't expect was that no one cared about him at all.
Everyone looked at him as if he was nothing, and rushed to Yingqing excitedly shouting: "I am the first!" ”
"What's the use of running fast? Money is the most important thing! I wish you so much, I want the first prison, you can make a price at will! ”
"The sacrificial sheep, a certain wish to give out five sheep to seek!"
"Five? Do you look down on Chang'anjun's exploits in this battle? Ten of them, I'll give them ten! ”
"Taizhu, I don't have so much money, do I ask for a bucket of rice for three hundred dollars? My baby is sick, I really need it! ”
Ying Cheng, who watched such a crazy scene, was a little stunned.
"They're ...... Buying offerings? ”
Ying Chengcheng also participated in several sacrifices with him, and knew that the livestock, grains and salt after the Great Qin sacrifice would not be wasted.
With the exception of captives, all edible offerings were sold by the officiating priest in the form of an auction.
And because these sacrifices were blessed by the gods, one sheep after the sacrifice could be exchanged for at least two live sheep.
After coming and going, Daqin's face was also earned, and the lining was also earned.
The reason why other countries in the Zhou Dynasty used no more than twelve sacrifices when sacrificing, but the sacrifice of Daqin was casually hundreds of sacrifices, is because of the unique sacrificial culture of Daqin.
However, such a fanatical scene, Rao is Yingcheng has never seen it.
Chang Yu's voice suddenly sounded from the two of them:
"The Yong people don't know how big South Korea is now, and South Korea is still the overlord who can make Daqin unable to go east in the impression of the Yong people."
"Now that Chang'an Jun has destroyed Han, the Yong people think that the ancestors of Great Qin will definitely reward Chang'an Jun, so they are becoming more and more enthusiastic about this sacrifice."
Ying Cheng turned his head and said with a smile: "Benjun also ignored one point. ”
"If it is in other cities, the Qianshou only like to buy sacrifices to the immortals, and few people in the Great Qin clan are willing to buy the sacrifices of the ancestors."
"After all, the ancestors of my Great Qin clan are not their ancestors."
"But in Yongcheng, the Yong people have long regarded themselves as a part of the Great Qin, and many of the Yong people have the blood of the Great Qin royal family flowing in their bodies."
"They are supremely loyal to my Great Qin royal family!"
Chang Yu showed a smug look in his eyes, and smiled and bowed: "Your Majesty thinks so!" ”
"I wonder when Chang'anjun and Changwenjun intend to leave for Xianyang?"
"Your Majesty is also a good servant of the Nangong to send the two feudal monarchs."
Xiong Mao said lightly: "Benjun will leave in five days. ”
Ying Chengyun shook his head with a smile: "Changwen Jun has a lot of nobles, but Benjun is just a Zongzhengcheng, even if he returns to Xianyang, it is nothing." ”
"So Benjun won't leave, stay in Yongcheng and wait for the eldest brother!"
Chang Yu's face was a little ugly: "There is still half a year before the king comes to Yongcheng to be crowned, doesn't Chang'an Jun want to stay in Yongcheng for half a year?" ”
Ying Chengcheng bowed his head happily: "Yongcheng is my ancestral land and temple of Daqin after all. ”
"However, Benjun has never been to Yongcheng since he was born, and since he is here this time, he should stay for a while."
"The eunuch won't be unwelcome, right?"
Chang Yu couldn't hold back his smile anymore, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty thinks that it is better for Chang'anjun to return to Xianyang City as soon as possible." ”
Ying Chengcheng took two steps forward, approached Chang Yu, and asked mockingly: "What are you, and you are also worthy of this gentleman's advice?" ”
Chang Yu suddenly raised his head, looked at Ying Cheng Chan with fiery eyes, and hated to draw his sword and kill Ying Cheng Chan directly!
But thinking of his plan, Chang Yu could only squeeze out a smile: "Chang'anjun taught a lesson." ”
Ying Chengyun smiled and nodded: "It's good to know." ”
"Benjun wants to go out of the city for a safari, do you want to go with him?"
Chang Yu felt that he would explode if he stayed by Ying Cheng's side for a second, how could he go hunting with Ying Chengchan?
Chang Yu just threatened in a deep voice: "It's easy to get out of Yongcheng now, but it's hard to get in!" ”
Ying Cheng turned over and got on his horse and bowed in the direction of Dazheng Palace:
"Greetings to the Queen Mother!"
When the words fell, Ying Cheng grabbed the belly of the horse and led a group of soldiers to gallop out towards the east.
rushed out of the east city gate all the way, and Ying Chengcheng saw a large number of Qiantou staying outside the city gate.
Many of them even put vegetables directly in the snow for others to choose.
Ying Chengcheng was puzzled and asked: "What is the situation?" ”
Xiong Mao glanced at the temporary bazaar, and asked instead of answering: "Has Chang'anjun tried to send more people into Yongcheng in recent days?" ”
Ying Chengcheng nodded calmly: "Naturally, I have tried, but so far no subordinate has been able to join this monarch, and I have failed to think about it." ”
Xiong Mao nodded: "Since the end of November, Xianyang County has ordered Shi Cang to strictly investigate all those who enter the city, and Yongcheng has been wide and strict. ”
"Only those who have been living in Yongcheng can leave the city, and they must return to the city on the night after leaving the city, otherwise they will not be allowed to enter the city again."
"Non-Yongcheng residents can only sell vegetables and grains outside the gate of Yongcheng every day, and then sell them in Pingzhun City in the city after being purchased by Yongcheng thief Cao."
"The number of soldiers patrolling the city walls has tripled, and the number of scouts patrolling the perimeter of the city has increased fivefold!"
"Don't hide it from Chang'anjun, Benjun also tried to transport manpower to Yongcheng, but no matter what means Benjun used, he still failed to transport manpower into the city."
Ying Chengcheng was puzzled and asked, "Won't the Qin people in Yongcheng be angry because of this?" ”
Xiong Mao shook his head helplessly: "It's winter now, how many people will go out often?" ”
"Many Yongcheng people don't even know the current strategy of entering and exiting the city gate in Yongcheng, but they just feel that the price of vegetables in Pingzhun City this year is much higher than in previous years."
"As for the people who can't return to the city after leaving Yongcheng, or those who need to enter Yongcheng to make a living?"
Xiong Qi nodded at those who stayed outside the city gate:
"They're all here, but their voices won't be heard by the people in the city."
Looking back at the dense patrol force on the city wall, Ying Cheng's eyes were slightly gloomy.
Shi Cang's method is not very clever.
But it's this stupid way that's the hardest to crack!
How can you cross the walls of Yongcheng, which is so guarded, and send your own men into the city?
Xiong Mao smiled: "Don't think about it anymore, you can already help a lot by appearing in Yongcheng." ”
"You're still young, and you don't need to worry about other things."
Xiong Mao stiffly changed the topic and asked curiously: "What did you talk about with your ancestors in the temple?" ”
Ying Chengcheng said in a deep voice: "Taizhu may have a problem." ”
Xiong Mao wanted to talk about a light-hearted topic, but now he was dumbfounded: "Taizhu has a problem? ”
"Chang'anjun thinks that Taizhu will be unfavorable to the king?"
"But he's just a Taizhu, what can he do?"
Taizhu was the leader of all theocratic activities during the Shang Dynasty, but now he is just a subordinate of Fengchang, a presiding officer of ceremonies.
So even if Yingqing is Xiong Mao's subordinate, Xiong Mao has never explored Yingqing's political leanings.
Because Yingqing's tendency is really unimportant in Xiong Mao's opinion!
Ying Chengcheng thought back to the fanatical Qin people who bought sacrifices, and said seriously: "The Qin people in Yongcheng are different from the Qin people in other cities, and even different from the Qin people in Xianyang City. ”
"Taizhu may be useless in Xianyang City, but in Yongcheng, Taizhu may play a role that you and I can't imagine!"
"Benjun thinks his tendencies are very important."
Seeing the seriousness of what Ying Chengcheng said, Xiong Mao also said solemnly: "Taizhu is a subordinate official of this monarch. ”
"Benjun will investigate his tendencies."
Ying Cheng bowed slightly: "There is labor!" ”
Xiong Mao smiled and shook his head: "Chang'anjun is polite." ”
Xiong Mao still doesn't think Yingqing is very important.
Looking around at the snowfields on the left and right, Xiong Mao changed the topic again: "Chang'anjun really went out of the city this time to hunt?" ”
Ying Cheng smiled and bowed: "Of course! ”
"It's just that this king is not hunting wild beasts."
……
At dusk, Ying Chengcheng and Xiong Mao's team finally returned to Yongcheng.
"Yo roar roar roar~" Hafu howled excitedly and shouted at the city gate: "Get out of the way!" ”
However, the city gate guards not only did not give way, but even moved out the rejected horses in the city gate hole, directly blocking the passage into the city.
Seeing this, the eight husbands scolded angrily: "His mother, she doesn't have long eyes, right?" ”
"Let's see whose carriage is behind you."
"Two horses and carts, two feudal kings enter the city, and you dare to stop them?"
The city gate guards replied tremblingly: "Yes, even if the feudal monarch enters the city, he also needs to be checked, this is determined by the Qin law!" ”
Ying Cheng's voice came from inside the carriage: "Yafu, let them see." ”
Hachifu could only give his hand: "Only! ”
More than ten city gate guards also hurriedly surrendered their hands: "Thank you!" ”
Then they began to check the carriage and horses in earnest.
Every soldier must take out the test, pass it on, and verify his identity.
The carriage was searched in great detail from the bottom of the carriage to the carriage, and even the wheels had to be hammered to listen to the sounds, and not to let go of any corner where something might be hidden.
Before inspecting Ying Chengcheng's carriage, Bafu suddenly waved his hand: "Just take a look, it's getting late, and my lord is still in a hurry to go back to the palace to rest." ”
The city gate guard smiled and arched his hand: "It's over right away, it's over right away." ”
The eight husbands shouted angrily: "Do you suspect that my lord will not be able to enter the city with a battering ram?" ”
"Allowing you to inspect the carriages and horses is because my family master respects Qin Law, but it doesn't mean that you can humiliate my family master!"
Just when the city gate guards were speechless, Shi Cang's voice came from inside the city gate cave:
"Chang'anjun respects Qin Law as it should be, and it is also the proper meaning for the city gate guards to inspect vehicles."
"Since you are Chang'anjun's family soldier, why should you embarrass the city gate guards?"
Ying Cheng's deep voice came from the carriage: "Shi County Order, this gentleman has nothing to do with you." ”
"Why are you targeting Benjun?"
Shi Cang stood in front of Ying Chengcheng's carriage and bowed, and responded in a deep voice: "This official will not target anyone, this official only has Qin Law in his heart!" ”
Ying Cheng shouted angrily: "Then why do you want to stop Benjun's car? ”
"The Queen Mother ordered this monarch to live in Yonggong, and Yonggong is locked every night."
"If Benjun still can't return to the city before the Yonggong Palace is locked, will Shi County order to explain to the Queen Mother on behalf of Benjun?"
Even if he didn't see Ying Cheng, Shi Cang could hear the anger in Ying Chengcheng's voice.
However, this made Shi Cang even more unable to let Ying Cheng into the city.
As we all know, Ying Chengcheng rarely rides in a carriage.
Now Ying Chengcheng not only took the carriage, but when he saw that he still didn't get out of the car, he was even very angry and wanted to enter the city as soon as possible?
An answer immediately came to Shi Cang's mind: there was a problem in the car!
Unwilling to argue with Ying Chengcheng without objection, Shi Cang stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Chang'anjun, all cars entering the city need to be checked, offended!" ”
Before the words fell, Shi Cang directly opened the car curtain, and then Shi Cang's pupils contracted suddenly.
I saw that what appeared in front of Shi Cang's eyes was Ying Cheng, who showed his strong abdominal muscles, and seven or eight pairs of white and long legs!
