Zhu Xiang explained: "The fields of the nobles have been used with today's more advanced farming technology, and it is difficult to increase the yield. I am increasing the yield of civilian fields that were previously short of water and fertilizer, and even maintained slash-and-burn farming. I heard that Wu Anjun was not born a big nobleman, Wu Anjun should know that for people who were originally taller than you, your meritorious service is more uncomfortable than his own failure. ”

When Taishi Gong was writing "Historical Records", people from high backgrounds and good family backgrounds, whether male or female, would mention their family background and surname.

If Lian Po is the winning surname Lian.

For example, Bai Qi and Lin Xiangru, who had no family name and no family background, were all low-level scholars at that time, and may even be "nationals", that is, civilians who cultivated public land for the princes, undertook military service, and lived in the city before the collapse of the well field system.

Their status was higher than that of Zhu Xiang, who lived in the suburbs and cultivated private land on the edge of the well fields, and later owned land after the land reform and became peasants.

Bai Qi relied on the military merit system to climb all the way to the point where the clan and relatives of the Qin State had to look up to him, and it is conceivable how many jealous people would attack him on the way to climb.

Bai Qi sighed softly and said, "I know." ”

Zhu Xiang continued: "In order to come to Changping, I made a name for myself in Handan. In the process of becoming famous, I also offended many nobles and nobles' doormen. ”

Zhu Xiang smiled again and said, "Although they took the initiative to come to me to debate, they were very graceful when they lost. But they wanted to step on me to become famous, but I stepped on to become famous, how could I not be hated?

I am a commoner again, and I have made such a great contribution, how can King Zhao reward me? Do you worship me as your lord? Those scholars and doctors in Zhao State bowed to me, a civilian, Shangqing, can they be willing?

So I'm pretty sure that as long as I have a point that they can attack, I will definitely be put to death by them. ”

King Qin and Bai Qi glanced at each other. Could it be that Zhu Xiang had already deduced that Zhao Jun surrendered for the sake of killing his generals?

Zhu Xiang paused for a long time before he said embarrassedly: "The point I was attacked by them is, uh, cough, that, King Qin may not know, my nephew is the proton of Qin State, and he is your great-grandson." ”

Qin Wang and Bai Qi: "......" At this time, should we make a shocked expression?

Fortunately, Zhu Xiang immediately added: "No, when I left, there was a wealthy businessman of the Qin State who came to help me protect Zheng'er, and he said that he was a person sent by Gongzi Chu. King Qin should know that my nephew Zheng'er is your great-grandson, right? ”

Does the widow know or does he not know? King Qin thought for a while and said decisively, "I don't know." Didn't Zichu's child follow his biological mother and hide under the protection of Lu Buwei? It turns out that his biological mother is your sister? ”

"It's my eldest sister, but she doesn't have a good relationship with me, and abandoned me when I was seriously ill." Zhu Xiang looked at King Qin's expression and guessed that King Qin should know.

He said that the King of Qin's attitude towards him was too friendly. The King of Qin may have regarded him as half of the Qin State.

Although he didn't understand why King Qin pretended not to know even though he knew it, Zhu Xiang didn't demolish King Qin, and followed King Qin's words and said, "My identity is enough for King Zhao to kill me." Perhaps, if the Battle of Changping fails, they will also put the fault on me, saying that I am a spy of the Qin State or something. ”

He has gathered too much jealousy and hatred of the nobles and nobles of the Zhao State, and has the fatal attack point of "Qin State's proton civilian uncle", and when he returns to Handan, other nobles will attack him, and the King of Zhao will be softer to his favored ministers, even Pingyuan Jun and Pingyang Jun can't save him.

Of course, Lin Gong and Lian Gong can't.

After Zhu Xiang thought of Lin Xiangru and Lian Po, a tide of guilt and pain surged in his heart.

Fortunately, if they can save Zhao Guo's pawns, with the thinking of this era, although they will be sad, they may also be glad that they sacrifice their lives for righteousness.

It's just Snow and Masa'er......

Zhu Xiang said in a deep voice: "After I die, can you ask King Qin to take Zheng'er and Xue back as soon as possible, and don't let Xue leave Zheng'er's side?" ”

He prostrated again.

King Qin looked at Zhu Xiang for a long time before he sighed faintly: "Since you are related to my Qin clan, why don't you ask the widow to take you away?" ”

Zhu Xiang crouched on the ground and said, "I want to rescue Zhao Bing's pawn." And after I left, Zheng'er and Xue must have been under the surveillance of the Zhao people. If I don't go back to Handan, they will be in danger. ”

King Qin said: "Even if I release the Zhao people, do you have to go back to Handan to exchange for them?" ”

Zhu Xiang said: "Yes." ”

King Qin said: "There is Lin Xiangru and Lian Po, it is easy to exchange someone else for your wife and save your wife." Only Zheng'er has a special identity and can't leave. However, with King Zhao's weak temperament, he didn't have the courage to kill the Qin State Proton. Zheng'er only worked a little harder, but he was definitely safe and sound. ”

Zhu Xiang said: "I am not in good health, and I will not have children in the future." Masa'er is the only junior between me and Yuki. And Zheng'er has been abandoned twice, and I will never abandon him a third time. ”

King Qin's heart was filled with emotion again.

King Qin was not a soft-hearted man, and he didn't care about his many sons and grandchildren. But when he looked at Zhu Xiang, why did he always feel distressed and helpless?

"Do you have to exchange your life for the life of these hundreds of thousands of Zhao people, and the life of your little nephew who has only been with you for a year or two?" King Qin asked again, "You are so talented, if you return to Xianyang with the widow, the widow will immediately worship you as the secretary and make you the king!" ”

Zhu Xiang couldn't help it, he straightened up and said very quickly: "King Qin, Zheng'er is your great-grandson!" King Qin should pay more attention to Zheng'er! Zheng'er is such a good child, he can't speak before he is a year old, he can read more than a thousand words before he is two years old, and now he can read hundreds of classics with me......"

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!" Bai Qi kept coughing dryly, reminding Zhu Xiang to pay attention to his identity. In front of you is the King of Qin! How can you fight with King Qin!

King Qin's face was full of surprise.

Zhu Xiang had been very calm before, and he had advanced and retreated in a measured manner. Why did Zhu Xiang fight with him, the king of Qin, with a red face and a stalk around his neck?

Zhu Xiang was reminded by Bai Qi and discovered his gaffe.

But he's really angry!

Zheng'er is your great-grandson! Your poor little great-grandson was left alone in Zhao Kingdom as a proton! Which Congress sends such a small proton?! Aren't you distressed!

I am a stranger to King Qin, even if it is a temptation, you shouldn't say such words that chill a child's heart!

Dad doesn't want Zheng'er, mother doesn't want Zheng'er, even a great-grandfather doesn't care about Zheng'er's life or death, I'm afraid that grandfather doesn't even know who Zheng'er is!

My Zheng'er, my First Emperor cub, my ancestral dragon cub, how did you end up with such a family!

Anyway, they are all here to find death, and those who are barefoot are not afraid to wear shoes, and Zhu Xiang is too lazy to redeem them.

He took out a thin booklet from his arms: "King Qin, this is the growth diary I recorded for Zheng'er. He is really a nice and lovely kid and you will love him! ”

King Qin silently took the booklet handed by Zhu Xiang, feeling a little embarrassed in his heart.

What's going on with this Zhu Xiang? If he had said to other people, "My great-grandson is not important, you are more important," they would have been moved to death.

Why is this young man still angry?

The King of Qin opened the first page of the booklet, and on the title page, Zhu Xiang made a draft with charcoal, filled it with pen and ink, and drew a portrait of their family of three holding hands.

Zhu Xiang smiled very cheerfully, Xue smiled very gently, the round Zheng'er smiled so much that his eyes narrowed, and his little short legs kicked high.

King Qin had never seen such a painting.

The people in the painting are vivid, as if they are about to come out of the painting. Just looking at this painting, King Qin could feel the joy of the painter, and he could also feel the happiness of the person in the painting.

King Qin's heart suddenly softened.

For just such a moment, because there were too many heirs, he didn't pay much attention to the heirs, and he had no impression of this great-grandson who had never met and had no feelings at all, and suddenly had a little affection for the fat doll in the painting who smiled and bent his eyes.

Bai Qi quietly craned his neck and saw the picture on the booklet.

He also felt the happiness of the people in the painting.

"Your family is living so happily, you really won't regret leaving him?" Bai Qi couldn't help it, "Aren't you worried that they will be sad?" ”

Zhu Xiang grabbed the cuffs with both hands.

He was silent for a long time, and then choked up: "Worried." I'm sorry for them, but I can't help it...... If I didn't live outside Handan, I would not have come here if I lived in Yanmen, Daijun, and Yunzhong. But they are the people around me, there are too many of them, almost all the people in the village where I live, the neighbors I know, almost all of them have come to Changping......"

Bai Qi raised his hand and put it down again.

He looked at King Qin.

The old King of Qin looked at Zhu Xiang, glanced at the painting again, and then sighed deeply: "That's it, Bai Qi, you take him to the Zhao army camp." The widow listens to you. You take Zhao Jun to plant potatoes for three months first, and then I let them go. ”

Zhu Xiang wiped a handful of tears with his sleeve, leaned over and said gratefully: "King Xie Qin!" ”

Bai got up and left with Zhu Xiang, worried that Zhu Xiang's crying would disturb the mood of the king.

When he settles Zhu Xiang and then makes a statement to the king, there is no need to use Zhu Xiang to attack Zhao Guo. He is still alive, as long as Qin Guo recuperates for a few years, he will definitely be able to seize the opportunity again and take Handan.

After Zhu Xiang left, King Qin's body relaxed, leaned on the seat, and stretched out one leg.

He was old, and it was quite tiring to maintain a dignified posture.

The old King of Qin turned the second page to see what Zhu Xiang, a young man, had recorded for his great-grandson.

"On the X year, X month, X, Zheng'er wetted the bed hahahahaha!"

Old King Qin's expression cracked.

Then, the old king of Qin buckled the booklet on his lap and held his forehead with one hand.

This Zhu Xiang......

Old King Qin couldn't help but laugh out loud.

……

When Bai Qi took Zhu Xiang out, Zhu Xiang was still crying and wiping his tears.

He cried and cried, and snot came out. Fortunately, he carried straw paper in his arms, so he quickly blew his nose with straw paper.

Bai Qi was silent.

Zhu Xiang, who was still very scholarly just now, is now like a weak little gentleman.

Who can be weak except for the little gentleman?

"I really don't see that you can die for Zhao Ren." Leaving King Qin's side, and without bringing his deputy general, Bai Qi talked a little more, "Do you regret it now?" ”

Zhu Xiang casually threw the paper that wiped his tears and blew his nose into the garbage heap of the Qin State Barracks, and said, "I have always regretted it." But regret will do the same, no way. ”

Bai Qi was speechless. This man......

He has seen more people who are not afraid of death, and he has seen more people who are afraid of death. Like Zhu Xiang, he has never seen a person who is afraid of death and is not afraid of death.

Just looking at Zhu Xiang's current appearance, who would have thought that Zhu Xiang would be so decisive just now, using his life as a bargaining chip in exchange for the lives of hundreds of thousands of Zhao people?

Oh, Zhu Xiang wants to exchange not only the lives of the hundreds of thousands of Zhao people, but also the lives of his family members who are far away in Handan.

Even if King Qin told him that Lin Xiangru and Lian Po could save his wife, King Zhao didn't have the courage to kill his nephew, and this person still used the strange excuse of "can't let Zheng'er be abandoned for the third time", which made people want to give him a head at once, and had to go back to die.

Bai Qi doesn't understand, Gongzi Chu doesn't care about his son, and Gongzi Chu's wife and concubine don't care about his son, why do you treat him as a treasure that is more important than life?

Bai Qi was silent again, Zhu Xiang couldn't bear this silent atmosphere a little, and took the initiative to find a topic: "Why did Zhao Jun surrender?" Has Zhao Kuo been locked up? He's going to get angry and want to kill me when he sees me coming, hey. ”

Bai Qi was speechless again.

You were crying just now, why are you laughing again? How could your expression suddenly become so relaxed? Should you have a deep face and a heavy heart at this time? No matter how quickly you adjust your mood, you can't laugh out, right?

And am I familiar with you? Am I not Wu Anjun who made the children of the Six Nations stop crying? How could you talk to me so naturally?

Bai Qi had a sense of powerlessness in the face of his lieutenant and the old guard.

Zhu Xiang didn't know that Bai Qi looked at the facial paralysis, and his mental activity was so rich.

Knowing that he can also defend himself, life is so hard, if he wasn't good at adjusting his mentality, he would have been suffocated to death.

Do you feel uneasy these months because you know that you will die in a few months? Isn't that worse than death?

Cherish the few remaining months of time to live with a smile is to treat yourself well.

What's more, he will die in a few months, of course Zhu Xiang is not afraid of Bai Qi: "Where is Zhao Kuo locked up?" I want to laugh at him first! ”
