Qin Shizhi's Confucian junior master

Chapter 340, Mountain Ghost, an offer the farmer cannot refuse

No one knew about the treachery of Bo Yun in the Zhao court except the person involved. However, when Zhao Wangqian announced that he would use the Qin State to defeat Yan, Zhao Ji immediately jumped out to object and stated the disadvantages of taking the route. The sober ministers in the Zhao court They also agreed one after another, but in the face of the powerful Guo Kai and Zhao Wangqian, these people's words were of little use, and Zhao Yi was captured on the spot by Zhao Wangqian and sent to prison.

Seeing that Zhao Yi, who was Zongzheng, was captured, the remaining ministers naturally did not dare to say anything. Zhao Wangqian took out the covenant with Qin on the spot and put the seal of King Zhao on it. The envoy from Zhao came with a letter of covenant. Went to Qin.

After the Qin court received the covenant, Ying Zheng immediately announced that Li Xin was the commander-in-chief of the expedition against Yan, Meng Tian was the deputy commander-in-chief, and Dun Ruo and others were generals. They led an army of [-] to attack Yan via Zhao.When Li Xin, who was far away on the border of Zhao Weiqi, saw the edict, he was in a state of confusion. He did not expect that he would become the boss after being the second child for so many years.

"Coach, your Majesty has an order, let us quickly go north to defeat Yan." Meng Tian raised his hands and said to Li Xin. This was his first time to participate in the battle to destroy the country, and he was more nervous than Li Xin.

Li Xin looked at Meng Tian and many generals with a big head, but he still had the basic qualities of a general. He immediately organized the army, brought enough food and grass, and set off towards the Yan Kingdom.When they arrived at the border of Zhao State, the guard at the border city of Zhao State looked at the powerful Qin army, and the hand holding the sword couldn't help but tremble a little.

After the Yan State learned that Zhao State was passing through the Qin State, King Xi of Yan yelled at Zhao Wangqian in the court, claiming that he was a short-sighted person. He scolded him but still ordered General Yan Yi to lead the Yan State army. Going to the frontier to defend the enemy, Ju Wu, the wise man of Yan, asked for orders to accompany Yan Yi on the expedition.King Xi of Yan did not refuse, so he made Ju Wu the supervisor of the army, and issued a very incomprehensible order, giving Ju Wu the authority to oversee all war decisions for the army.

Where is Yan Yi's level? No matter how mediocre Yan Wangxi is, he can still see it, but Yan Yi is not a man who can fight, and Yan Yi, who is a man, can fight, so Yan Yi has to keep Yan Yi. General.Yan Yi was asked to fight the Qin army, but he might be directly defeated by the Qin army. Although Ju Wu had never commanded an army, he had a reputation as a wise man of Yan. It was enough to remind Yan Yi at critical moments, so he With this order.

Ju Wu looked at Yan Wangxi in panic, wanting to ask Yan Wangxi to take back the order, but Yan Wangxi directly waved his hand to go down to court, and returned to the harem to continue enjoying himself.Amid the strange looks on the civil and military court, Yan Yi walked up to Ju Wu and said with a smile.
"Taifu, I will leave this army battle to Taifu. As long as you give the order, I will never be greedy for life or fear of death."

If it weren't for Ju Wu's identity, Yan Yi would have broken up with Ju Wu long ago. Yan Wangxi's actions undoubtedly told everyone that Yan Yi was a waste, so I let a person who has never led an army to fight give an overview. Daquan, as for you Yan Yi, you can just be a symbol and errand boy.This kind of insult is not something that ordinary people can bear, let alone Yan Yi, a general who has been in a high position for many years. He has no way to settle accounts with King Yan. If Ju Wu is let go, then he will be in Yan State in the future. No more prestige.

"General, you have misunderstood. What the king means?" Ju Wu was interrupted by Yan Yi before he finished speaking.

"General, I don't think there is any misunderstanding. Now the Qin army is about to arrive at the border. Forgive me for not being able to waste time with Taifu. Now, I have to reorganize the army to fight against the Qin army." Yan Yi left without the slightest intention of staying. Yanwang Palace.

Qin State, Xianyang, Ziyou's mansion.

Ziyou looked at the uninvited guest in front of him and motioned for him to sit down. Concubine Yan and Shao Siming accompanied Ziyou.

"I have met the Marquis. I am the mountain ghost of the Yin Yang family. I came here to visit the Marquis on the order of the old master." A middle-aged and elderly man with mixed black and white hair said to Zi Xuan.

"Old leader? So you come from Jieshi Palace?" Ziyou asked, looking at the mountain ghost.

"Yes, I came to visit the Marquis this time because the old master hopes to invite the Marquis to Jieshi Palace for a chat." Shangui said.

"Concubine Yan told me before that the old Emperor Taiyi wanted me to go to Jieshi Palace, but I refused. I think my intention was very clear at the time. I also know some of the reasons for the split of your Yin and Yang family, but you don't Stand under the dangerous wall. Tell him I won't go." Ziyou said.

Jieshi Palace is one of the base camps of the Yin Yang family. Who knew that Donghuang Taiyi and old Donghuang Taiyi had been working together and were planning to trick him into joining forces to get rid of him.

"Don't worry, Mr. Hou. I can swear that the old master has absolutely no wrongdoing in inviting Mr. Hou there. He just wants to discuss some matters with Mr. Hou. It is a matter of secrets, so it is not convenient to change the words. I hope Mr. Hou can Let’s go to Jieshi Palace.” Shangui said with his hands in hand.

Ziyou didn't speak, but the expression on his face said everything, there was no way he was going.Seeing Ziyou's indifferent expression, Shangui sighed helplessly and said

"Master Marquis, I'm sorry for being rude. The old master said that if Master Hou refused, then the truth about the fate of Young Siming would be troublesome for Master Hou to guess by himself."

"Are you threatening me!?" Ziyou looked at the mountain ghost indifferently and said.

"This is not a threat to the Marquis, but we really hope that the Marquis can go to Jieshi Palace. The matter that the old master wants to discuss with the Marquis is of great importance, and the matter of Young Master's order is just our sincerity, Young Master Only the heads of the Yin Yang family in the past dynasties know about the matter of commanding orders." Shan Gui said without any fear.

If it weren't for Ziyou's resolute attitude, Shangui wouldn't have made such a move. After all, irritating Ziyou would make the already difficult situation of their lineage even more difficult.

Ziyou's expression was gloomy. Shao Siming on the side tugged at the corner of Ziyou's clothes and looked at Ziyou to indicate that his problem was not important. Ziyou patted Shao Siming's hand to reassure him, and then looked towards Concubine Yan was the one who understood Old Donghuang Taiyi best among them.

"The secrets of Xiaoyi always need to be solved." Concubine Yan said. The fate of Shao Siming in the past generations of the Yin and Yang family was all mysterious disappearances. Moreover, there were people who wanted to investigate the mystery of Shao Siming's disappearance, but no one found it. The exceptions all disappeared mysteriously. As long as the mystery of Shao Siming's position is not solved for a day, there will always be a danger lurking in Xiaoyi that can erupt at any time.

"Where's the invitation?" Ziyou asked in a deep voice. He couldn't just sit back and watch the hidden dangers in Xiaoyi, so he had to go to Jieshi Palace this time.

"Master Hou, wait a moment." Shan Gui took out a piece of jade from his arms and handed it to Ziyou.

Ziyou looked at the two characters yin and yang written in Qi's font on Yugui, and then put Yugui into his arms, thus agreeing to go to Jieshi Palace.When the mountain ghost saw Ziyou accepting Yugui, he knew that his mission had been completed, and was about to leave, when Ziyou said

"Wait a minute, since Old Dong Huang sincerely wants to invite, then naturally I can't let Mr. Shangui go back empty-handed. Mo Crow!" Ziyou shouted.

Immediately, the door behind Ziyou was opened in an instant, and the mountain ghost followed the sound, and his somewhat surprised eyes immediately turned to horror, not because he saw Mo Ya, but because of the person in Mo Ya's hand. "He Bo!?" The mountain ghost immediately stood up and asked in horror.

"It seems that Mr. Shangui knows that Hebo was ordered by Duke Nan of Chu to assassinate me in Daliang. He was captured and is now my prisoner." Ziyou said with a smile.

The mountain ghost glanced at He Bo meaningfully, and then said to Zi Xing:
"Master Marquis, there must be some misunderstanding. He Bo is the direct disciple of the old master. He was once the person who fought against Donghuang Taiyi in the Yin Yang family. How could he obey the orders of Chu Nan Gong? There is a rumor in the Yin Yang family that He Bo His attempt to assassinate Donghuang Taiyi failed, but he was seriously injured and his whereabouts are unknown since then. How could he come to assassinate the Marquis?"

"Oh? It seems you don't know." Ziyou showed a playful smile on his face, and then told the story between He Bo and Mrs. Xiang, and explained why He Bo came to assassinate him.

Hearing that He Bo was actually for Mrs. Xiang, Shan Gui was so angry that he had nothing to say. He didn't expect that He Bo, the former genius of the Yin Yang family, turned out to be a lover.He was angry, but Shan Gui also understood what Ziyou meant by doing this. It was nothing more than a warning to them and using He Bo as a bargaining chip to threaten them. As the only direct disciple of the old master, He Bo's identity was enough to make Jieshi Gong didn't dare to make any move, not to mention that they themselves simply invited Ziyu to come over and be their guests.

"I believe there must be some misunderstanding, and I also ask the Marquis not to hurt his life. After I report to the old master, I will definitely give an explanation to the Marquis." Shangui said with his hands in hand.

"No need, I will go to Jieshi Palace in person to ask for an explanation. Please go back and tell Old Dong Huang that I will be there soon," Ziyou said.

Before leaving, Shangui took one more look at He Bo, who was not up to expectations, and left with helplessness in his eyes.He Bo was extremely ashamed at this moment. He never expected that he would meet an acquaintance, and it was a mountain ghost that he didn't deal with very well.He Bo is the water god, and Shan Gui is the mountain god. The two of them have disliked each other since they were young. Now that the other party saw that he was captured, and asked the other party to rescue him, He Bo was completely embarrassed.

Ziyou was naturally not interested in the ashamed He Bo, so he just waved and asked Mo Crow to take him down.Ziyou looked at Concubine Yan and Xiaoyi.

"I plan to go to Jieshi Palace this time by myself." Ziyou said. The situation in Jieshi Palace was unknown. Ziyou felt that it was most appropriate to go alone, so that he could escape as quickly as possible if there was a problem.

"I'll go with you. I'm a little familiar with Jieshi Palace, and with the power of the Three-Legged Golden Crow, I can reach the level of Grand Master, and I can deal with problems when I encounter them." Concubine Yan said.

Shao Siming looked at Ziyou and shook his head. This matter concerned her, and she, the client, had to go. Looking at the stubborn two people, Ziyou didn't say anything else, but apart from the two of them, Ziyou He is not planning to bring anyone else with him, including Mo Ya and Bai Feng.

Zi You told the others about his decision. Although Xue Nu wanted to say more, considering her own strength, she would only hold back and said nothing more. Jing Salamander handed the Jingshao Sword to Concubine Yan. Concubine Yan has never had a suitable weapon. Although Concubine Yan and the Jing Salamander Sword are not compatible, they are much stronger than ordinary weapons and can be regarded as a life-saving means.

Yan Lingji didn't say anything, she just said some things for them to pay attention to their safety. At the same time, she handed three sachets to Ziyou and the others. These were the sachets she had arranged with the King of Hundred Poisons. The spices in them could And most poisons are enough to save life.

After saying goodbye to everyone, Ziyou went to the Qin Palace and explained the situation to Ying Zheng. He was named the special envoy to comfort the army by Ying Zheng and went to the Yan Kingdom.Before leaving, Ziyou threw all the information he had compiled to the Daqin Academy of Sciences, but Xu Huan found him again and gave Ziyou the reply letter from Situ Wanli to him.

After Ziyou saw the contents of the reply, he suddenly felt overwhelmed. Now the Yin and Yang family needed him to solve it, and the farm family had another problem.Situ Wanli's problem is very simple. The Zhu family suspected him of mobilizing farm disciples who were proficient in farming. Although there were many farm disciples, Situ Wanli was extremely cautious when mobilizing his disciples. However, the Zhu family is now like a frightened bird, extremely cautious about any disturbance. , so there are still clues found.

"Xu Huan, do you have any thoughts about the farm?" Ziyou looked at Xu Huan and asked.

"What does the dean mean?" Xu Huan asked with a tight heart.

"I know you have always had thoughts about the Nongjia. Think about it. Xu Zi's contribution to the Nongjia's development is the greatest. He made the Nongjia become one of the five major sects in one fell swoop. But now the Xu family is excluded by the Nongjia, and even... If you thought about killing someone, I would be dissatisfied. Now I will give you a chance to take control of the farm, are you willing?" Ziyou looked at Xu Huan and said.

"Follow the dean's orders." Xu Huan immediately knelt down on one knee and said.

"Now Situ Wanli is in control of Siyuetang, but after all, he is a foreigner. He has status and strength in the peasant family, but his reputation is still lacking. But you are different. You are a descendant of Xu Zi. As long as the Xu family is reborn, I believe that the peasant family will There are still people in the country who will support you. If you complete another classic that can be passed down for thousands of years, combined with the power of Siyuetang in Situ Wanli's hands, it will be enough for the two of you to successfully control the farm. Are you willing?" Ziyou asked road.

Xu Huan looked at Ziyou in surprise. He originally thought that Ziyou would mobilize forces to support his rise to power through force, but he didn't expect that Ziyou would ask him to write a peasant classic that has been passed down for thousands of years. How could he accomplish this? ,

"Of course I am willing, but my subordinates are not talented enough to complete such a classic." Xu Huan said with a bitter smile.

"If you finish it alone, I'm afraid the farmer won't let you come back. What if you take the lead, Qin State pays, and the farmer contributes to compile a classic together?" Ziyou said with a smile.

The masterpiece shines in Xu Huan's eyes. No one can refuse the temptation of leaving a name for eternity. Even the peasant disciples also yearn for it, but they are not as capable as they are and cannot compile a classic. But now with the support of Ziyou and Qin, then Isn’t it simple?

"My subordinate is willing!" Xu Huan said.

"Okay, this classic will gather all agricultural techniques and farming theories from ancient times to the present. It is called "Essential Techniques for Elevating the People"! I will send someone to help you when the time comes." Ziyou said.

"promise!"
