Chapter 204: Life and Death
Both sides of the Wei River are all kinds of mixed trees, and the leaves are either red, yellow or green, unlike Jiaodong County, which is a thick and dark green.
Under the clear sky, Zheng Sleeve, who happened to be guessed correctly by some people, took the boat of the year and marched unhurriedly towards the port of that year.
This boat did cost a lot of money and effort in Jiaodong County back then, so it has been well preserved.
The reason why all kinds of materials are expensive is because they are not stained by time, even after nearly 20 years, they are as good as new.
Zheng Sleeve sat in this cabin, feeling familiar and strange.
She looked at the red, yellow and green colors on both sides of the Wei River, and thought of the freshness of her arrival on this boat for the first time, and there was a faint sadness.
She came the same as when she first came to Changling.
But a lot of people back then are dead.
Now it's almost her turn.
A flat boat rowed from a small river and approached the boat she was in.
The figures of Yutai Guanjian and Zhao Yi swept up from the small boat and landed on the bow of the boat.
The two of them just wanted to bring Zhao Si's sword to Zheng Sleeve, and at the same time wanted to follow the ship and watch the battle with their own eyes.
Whether it is Tantai Guanjian or Zhao Yi, they are not familiar with Zheng Sleeve.
Moreover, Zhantai Guanjian felt that with Zheng Sleeve's mood at this time, he might not want to have any conversation with them.
However, just as he handed the sword to the maid outside the cabin, Zheng Sleeve in the cabin suddenly spoke, "Thank you." ”
Yutai Guanjian and Zhao Yi were both a little stunned.
Yutai Guanjian replied: "No need to thank you. ”
Zheng Sleeve did not leave the cabin, but in the cabin, she raised her head slightly, bathed in the sunlight that fell into the cabin, and said: "When I arrived in Changling, no one was waiting for me, and I didn't know whether it was luck or disaster that greeted me. ”
Her words were simple, but they contained indescribable complex emotions.
Yutai Guanjian couldn't respond, so he could only smile apologetically and sarcastically.
Who knows what the future holds?
Who knows what kind of person they will become in the future?
Since the early morning, the inner harbor of Weihe has gathered countless Daqin officials and sergeants wearing Xuanyi.
The faces of these officials were extremely solemn, and the depths of their eyes revealed a deep uneasiness.
It was just speculation before, but when the Weihe online news came, and when the grandmaster of Shantai Guanjian and Zhao Jianlu openly appeared and boarded the boat from Jiaodong County, everything was confirmed.
The mistress of the city, as she had suspected, was returning.
The only thing that is uncertain now is the response of their faithful Lord.
Will Emperor Yuanwu come.
After Emperor Yuanwu came, would he really have a fair duel with Zheng Sleeve?
It's something they want to know, but they don't dare to talk about.
Military intelligence news is naturally strictly controlled, and it is impossible to spread to the streets and alleys quickly, but some people with a keen sense of smell feel a strange atmosphere, and the crowd outside the port is gathering more and more.
When a large number of carriages arrived, it was no longer possible to conceal it, and when Changling was almost empty, the crowd of people who came to inquire filled the road.
Suddenly, high on the bank of the Wei River, especially many people who climbed on the trees and watched, let out an exclamation in unison.
In the distance, a dark shadow appeared on the river.
It was a lonely boat, which seemed ordinary, and it could not make people feel that it had a definite connection with Jiaodong County at a glance.
But I don't know who was the first to speak, maybe it was the person who happened to have seen the boat back then, but when the voice sounded, it was all the people who saw the boat that made the sound, and whether it was the person who made the sound, or the crowd who had not seen the boat when they heard the tidal wave of exclamations, they almost decided in their hearts that this boat was the boat carrying Zheng Sleeve.
The officials in the port were even clearer in their minds, this was the ship.
Their hearts were even more uneasy.
In a short time, the ship will enter the harbor and dock.
However, Emperor Yuanwu did not appear at this time, and there was no news from the imperial city, so did he want to prevent the ship from entering the port, or did he do nothing and just wait?
"He's coming, and he's going to fight me. ”
In the cabin, Zheng Sleeve had already seen the dense crowd from the window, and saw those Daqin officials and sergeants who were standing cautiously but uneasy, she smiled indifferently and said.
This voice was also heard clearly by Tai Guan Jian and Zhao Yi.
The two didn't know if this was Zheng Sleeve saying it to themselves, or if they were talking to them, and they didn't know whether to respond for a while.
This sentence was indeed said to the two of them, and Zheng Sleeve added: "It's not that he wants to have something to do with me, but I know too many things about him, and he knows very well that if he doesn't come, I will definitely shake out everything he has done in front of these people." Over the years, I have carried too many black cauldrons for him, and if he wants me to continue to carry these black cauldrons, he must come. ”
Yutai Guanjian's brows jumped.
He felt a little sad.
But at the same time, his heart shook, knowing that Zheng Sleeve was also the person who knew Yuanwu best in the world.
Suddenly, there was a tsunami-like inhalation sound in the harbor.
Then came the sound of the Holy Heavens crying out as the earth shook and the mountains shook.
Without warning, no one noticed how he appeared.
A figure that was still just wearing ordinary coarse cloth clothes, but exuding indescribable majesty, appeared in front of all the court officials.
He turned his back to all the Great Qin officials, faced the Wei River, and stood with his hands in front of the boat.
He just stood quietly.
No joy or anger.
Didn't exude any powerful vitality power.
But everyone knows that he is Yuanwu.
Everyone felt that the country was under his feet.
The outline of the ship became clearer and clearer in everyone's eyes.
Yuan Wu didn't look back, he just raised his hand, clenched his fist and swung it back.
All the Great Qin Dynasty officials and sergeants took fifty steps back.
The spectators outside this port were naturally not the army, but at this time, they also unconsciously retreated, and none of them fell down because of the squeezing.
Yuan Wu took a deep breath.
There was complete silence inside and outside the port.
He didn't give any orders, but everyone naturally didn't dare to go out of the air, and there was a dead silence.
This is obviously a life-and-death situation.
However, for some reason, Yuan Wu's figure has a strange appeal.
The dead silence here slowly becomes quiet, like an early summer afternoon, the breeze is blowing, many people in the streets are taking a nap, and some people are bored in a daze.
The ship arrived.
Anchor at the shore.
The crash of wooden planks and the sound of water broke the silence.
Zhao Yi and Yutai Guanjian moved to the stern.
The front of the bow was empty, and the hatch seemed to be pushed open by the wind.
A dazzling flash of brilliance flashed into everyone's eyes.
Yuan Wu's eyes narrowed slightly, and a few subtle wrinkles quietly appeared in the corners of his eyes.
