Daqin: When I return from sea, I will offer you a map of the world

Chapter 413 Now, please call me Liu Bang!

"In that case, I'll leave it to you two gentlemen!" The young master bowed deeply.

Chen Yu and Zhang Er did not hesitate for a moment, bowed to each other and then set off separately.

In fact, the undercurrents under the sky are not just words.

With the promulgation of the second large-scale relocation of royal tombs, and almost all the nobles in the world resisting, local administration has reached the edge of stagnation.

Otherwise, Li Si would not temporarily deploy Hei Bingtai to go down to the local area to try his best to maintain the operation of local politics.

Resistance is not just resistance on the surface. Officials can mess things up and officials can push the envelope. Even if there is a black ice platform watching, it is useless. It is nothing more than putting things on the surface in the dark.

In the world, apart from Guanzhong, there are only a few counties under direct control and areas where large armies are stationed that can fully maintain operations.

Just like now, Gongzi Xie was nominally under the surveillance of the local government, but in fact Zhang Er and Chen Yu were able to come in and out freely. The guarding county soldiers even simply asked verbally and turned a blind eye to Zhang Er's going out.

Zhang Er acted very quickly. After walking out of Gongzi Xie's residence, he immediately sent someone to the station at Heibingtai to deliver the letter of thanks without a moment's hesitation.

After a while, the invitation was in Liu Bang's hands.

"Zhang Er..."

Liu Bang rubbed his eyebrows and looked at Bie Tie in front of him.

The content of Zhang Er's greetings was very simple. He just said that he passed by here by chance and heard that Liu Bang was here. As an old friend, he wanted to catch up with Liu Bang.

Liu Bang and Zhang Er had a close relationship.

As we all know, Liu Bang's idol is Lord Xinling.

Even after he became emperor, Liu Bang still had high regard for Lord Xinling. It was a pity that they never met each other, but Liu Bang had been close friends for a long time.

When he was young, Liu Bang was a knight-errant, loved fancy clothes, and even traveled all the way to Wei in order to become the disciple of Lord Xinling.

It's a pity that when he went there, Lord Xinling had already passed away, and all the guests in the house were scattered like birds and beasts.

Because Zhang Er was a disciple of Lord Xinling and a well-known Ren Xia, Liu Bang followed Zhang Er for a while.

To put it bluntly, the little gangster wanted to join the underworld, but the gangster leader was already gangster, so he had no choice but to follow a big gangster.

But at that time, the Qin State had already unified the world, and the First Emperor certainly could not accept such evil forces that were not under the control of the government, so he began a special campaign to eradicate crime and evil.

Liu Bang's boss Zhang Er also hid in Tibet because of this. Liu Bang thought that he would be able to prosper by following his boss, but he ended up starving nine times out of ten, and had to be hit with a small steel rod when nothing happened. In addition, Zhang Er's charisma said The truth could not convince Liu Bang, so Liu Bang chose to abandon his boss and run away.

After returning, Liu Bang began to focus on hanging out in Fengfei and running his own vibrant social group.

Later, he was held in his lap and promoted all the way up to become the second-in-command of Heibingtai.

Now Liu Bang is actually a black man who has become a second-in-command in a government department.

But Liu Bang probably had a dream of becoming a hero, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to the grave of Lord Xinling to worship after he unified the world and proclaimed himself emperor.

After all, although Liu Bang is no longer the little gangster he once was, an insignificant Ren Xia, how long did it take for him to rise to the top?

That period of time occupied most of his life, so although his thoughts were changing subtly, he still couldn't forget his dream of becoming a knight.

Now that an old friend is visiting, he is still the boss of his past, and he has become famous. With Liu Bang's character, it is even more impossible for him not to go.

Life is nothing more than pretense.

Therefore, after simple thinking, Liu Bang decided to go to the appointment to meet his former big brother Zhang Er.

"Lu Wan, I'm going out, please keep an eye on..." Liu Bang waved his hand and threw the greeting note on the table. After thinking for a moment, Liu Bangfu picked up his pen and wrote a few words on the greeting note.

After finishing writing, Liu Bang felt a little funny again, but now he no longer had any burden in his heart, so he just threw the greeting note on the desk.

You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others.

"Where to go?" Lu Wan asked casually while responding.

"Friends from the past passed by here to catch up on old times." Liu Bang smiled.

Lu Wan didn't think it was strange, Liu Bang went out and within a moment he saw his former big brother Zhang Er.

Upon first glance, the old eldest brother Zhang Er looks no longer young. There are specks of white hair on his forehead and temples. His body does not look as tall and straight as before. He seems to be a little rickety, but his face is still the same. Memories of those days.

"Brother!"

Liu Bang took two steps forward and grabbed Zhang Er's arm.

Zhang Er stared at Liu Bang in front of him for a long time before comparing his memories.

Zhang Er was Liu Bang's former eldest brother, but Liu Bang was just one of Zhang Er's many younger brothers...

To be honest, Zhang Er didn't have a deep impression of Liu Bang. His biggest memory of Liu Bang was that this boy came all the way from a land of abundance because he admired Lord Xinling...

"Ji, it's you indeed!" Zhang Er also grabbed Liu Bang's arm with an eager and generous smile on his face.

"After all these years, I still remember that in the past, you traveled thousands of miles from a rich land to become a disciple of Lord Ling. You were still young at that time, but now you actually have the same beautiful hair on your head as I do." Zhang There was emotion on his face.

"The years have been wasted..." Liu Bang looked at the old big brother and felt infinite emotion in his heart.

"If I say that the years have been wasted, I should say that after many years, I am still running around on the run, but you are already high in the government. I heard that King Qin and his close minister Zhao Si trust you very much. This is really unimaginable. Things." Zhang Er shook his head.

"I was just lucky enough to be appreciated and made it this far. Otherwise, I would still be hanging around in a rich land. Forget about me, my brother was wanted by the government. How have you been doing for so many years?" Liu Bang asked.

"It's nothing more than exile in the world. You know that although I don't have a career, I have friends all over the world and the government can't catch me." Zhang Er had a smile on his face.

"Now you and I are reunited as old friends. We can't just stand here. Let's go find a restaurant to have a drink and stay there, and then we can reminisce about old times." Zhang Er said with a smile.

"Brother took great care of me in the past, so it's fitting that I'm the one to make the request today." Liu Bang waved his hand.

"But you forgot? I don't have many other things, but I have many friends." Zhang Er smiled.

"It's free to go to Guanyi to eat and rest." Liu Bang also smiled.

"Ji...I'm still a fugitive now. Could it be that Ji is planning to kidnap me as a meritorious service?" Zhang Er glanced at Liu Bang faintly.

Liu Bang heard the sound and did not doubt that he was there. Then he remembered Zhang Er's identity as a fugitive and waved his hands repeatedly when he heard the sound.

"But I didn't think clearly."

"It's okay, but you'll have to drink three more drinks later!"

After that, the two of them walked towards the guest house laughing and joking.

Of course, Liu Bang would not be idle and detain Zhang Er, a fugitive. The chivalrous spirit in his heart had not dissipated, and besides, this was also his former big brother.

Although he didn't do well in life, Zhang Er didn't say that he was missing a little brother when he was on the way to escape.

Even when Liu Bang was about to leave, Zhang Er still raised the money for him.

There are different opinions about Liu Bang's character, but given the choice, he would definitely not be able to do such an ungrateful thing. Besides, taking a step back, the crimes committed by Zhang Er were all from many years ago, and he and Liu Bang have a relationship. What's the relationship?

In fact, situations like Liu Bang's can be found everywhere in government offices all over the world.

This is also the main reason why Zhang Er, Zhang Liang, Heng Chu... so many wanted criminals are still able to thrive. People do have many friends, and most people's attitude towards the Qin Dynasty is just to work... The idea of ​​​​unification has not yet truly taken root in the hearts of the people.

No one is looking for trouble in their spare time at work. It is normal for friends to take advantage of their power to provide convenience.

Even Liu Bang, who was on the black ice platform, was not immune.

The Black Ice Platform was supposed to be a sharp knife in the hands of the First Emperor, but the identity change was still too fast after all.

While Liu Bang gained wealth, he also gained notoriety because of the order to move the royal mausoleum. But now Liu Bang has not yet completely ruined his life. He still wants to prove that he is still the young man he once was.

however……

The moment Liu Bang followed Zhang Er into the guest house, everything was doomed.

In the guest house, Liu Bang and Zhang Er were drinking and reminiscing about the past.

After a while, Liu Bang was already drunk, and he started to feel a little dizzy when he spoke. Zhang Er saw that the atmosphere had increased, and Liu Bang still didn't have the arrogance of a superior person towards him, so he thought that Liu Bang was still a person he could be friends with, so he met Liu Bang again. After sharing a drink, Zhang Er put down his glass and sighed deliberately.

"You and I have reunited after so many years, and we can still drink and get drunk together. At such a time, it would be a bit inappropriate for my brother to sigh." Liu Bang heard the sound and spoke.

"It's not that I didn't mean to spoil the fun, but in fact, there are many things that are entangled and difficult to solve..." Zhang Er quickly apologized.

"If your brother has something to do, you might as well tell me. Now that I have some rights, I may be able to help my brother." Liu Bang spoke subconsciously.

"Ji, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but it's just that such a thing is too dangerous." Zhang Er shook his head.

"When I was on the way to escape, my brother saw that I was young, but he never abandoned me and took good care of me. If I couldn't help my brother if he had problems, then would Liu Ji still be worthy of being a human being?" Liu Bang said in a deep voice.

For this reason, Zhang Er was determined. The corners of his mouth raised slightly but quickly stopped.

"Ji, can I trust you?" Zhang Er asked in a deep voice.

"Brother, do you look down on me?" Liu Bang asked back.

"Okay!" Zhang Er praised in a deep voice and nodded.

"The King of Qin was cruel and issued an order to move the king's mausoleum. I heard that Hei Bingtai was his lackey and worked as a slave to the tiger. Even Ji you suffered a lot of criticism and was reviled by the world. I don't believe that Liu Ji, who used to follow me, is This is why such a person came to visit you specially. Now it seems that the people of the world have misjudged you. In such a situation, you are helpless in the face of King Qin's chaos and the threats of traitorous ministers." Zhang Er pondered. After opening his mouth, drunkenly, a pair of eyes stared at Liu Bang carefully, watching Liu Bang's subtle facial expressions.

Liu Bang was shocked when he heard the sound. Most of his alcoholism had dissipated, but he did not dare to act rashly. As his thoughts suddenly changed, he sighed and took a bitter drink, and his face turned even redder.

"No matter what I did, I had brothers and fathers in my family. By the time they discovered the truth, it was already too late to regret it."

After that, he drank a few more glasses.

"The King of Qin has always been cruel. He wants to kill people, but we are the ones who have to bear the infamy..."

After hearing this, Zhang Er watched Liu Bang's every move and saw that Liu Bang was not abnormal. In addition, he was very drunk, so he believed Liu Bang's words.

After all, Zhang Er still somewhat recognized Liu Bang in his heart for being able to come all the way to follow him.

"What about now? Are you going to continue to help the tyrants and harm the tigers?" Zhang Er asked.

"But what can a person like me do? With my own strength, I can only save a few more people, but I can't stop King Qin from continuing to kill innocent people indiscriminately." Liu Bang shook his head and simply drank a few more drinks.

"This is wrong. Now the King of Qin has issued an order to move the King's Mausoleum. It is called the Order to Move the King's Tomb. In fact, it is an act of plunder and indiscriminate killing of innocent people. Therefore, the people of the world are against him. Everyone in the world cannot stand the cruelty of the King of Qin, and they are ready to work together to overthrow the King of Qin.

I have traveled all over the world for many years, with little reputation, and now I am treated as a guest by the Young Master of the State of Zhao.

Now the Qin State is fighting against the Hu people. Lingnan, Dongyi, and Xirong will not be peaceful, not to mention that it will not be long before everyone in the world will start to take action. It is certain that King Qin is gone. Ji, you have followed me before, and I can trust you. Yes, in this situation, as long as you are willing to follow me and surrender to the Lord, support justice, and have things happen again? "Zhang Er opened his mouth to persuade.

"This...this...this..." Liu Bang did not agree immediately, but showed hesitation on his face.

"Can such a thing really happen?" Liu Bang asked.

"Ji, are you someone who is afraid of death?"

"Of course I'm not afraid of death, but if this kind of thing fails, how many loyal and courageous people will die?" Liu Bang said.

The doubts in Zhang Er's heart gradually disappeared after hearing this. Liu Bang would only have doubts in his heart if he agreed to him outright.

After all, Liu Bang occupies a high position, and the Qin State is now openly powerful. Liu Bang's hesitation made him feel more at ease.

"Ji, I know what you are worried about. In this way, you and I will communicate secretly. You can wait and see the situation and help me secretly. No one will know about this. It won't be long before you can see what the cruelty of King Qin has gone to. In such a situation, Qin will definitely be overthrown!" Zhang Er said.

"Then what can I do for my brother?" Liu Bang asked.

"The governor of Dai County helped Zhou to abuse him, thinking that he would be used by the King of Qin. You can kill him by commanding Heibingtai to guard Zhao." Zhang Er said.

It is the duty of the governor of the county to submit a certificate of name. Of course Liu Bang understood this meaning.

Liu Bang rubbed his brows and drank another drink.

"He is an official of the imperial court..." Liu Bang shook his head.

"I have a fortune to make."

"No, brother, you are wrong. This is not about money." Liu Bang shook his head and pursed his ears to listen to the increasingly heavy footsteps outside.

"I mean, he is an official of the imperial court, and so am I."

Zhang Er frowned upon hearing the sound and placed his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist.

The door was kicked open by Lu Wan and others.

Zhang Er stood up with his sword in hand, but was easily pinned down by Lu Wan and others.

"Liu Ji, I misjudged you in vain, you are a shameless villain who betrays his friends for glory!" Zhang Er was pinned to the ground and spoke angrily.

"Brother, you are wrong. I planned to ask Lu Wan to help you hide your traces. You are an exile, and I am an official of the court. You and I are in private contact, and only if they are used by someone with ulterior motives will it harm my brother's life. Isn't that right? To tell you the truth, I have some private rights in my hands, and I originally planned to help my brother cover up his past crime of fleeing..." Liu Bang had a bit of sadness in his eyes.

"You only have one chance to kill me, and that's when I walk out with you."

Zhang Er heard the sound but didn't believe it at all, and continued to yell angrily.

“Liu Ji###”

"Liu Ji..."

Liu Bang turned a deaf ear and came to Zhang Er who was pinned to the ground with indescribable emotions in his eyes. He just watched Zhang Er angrily scolding him.

"I have no intention of killing you, but brother, I'm afraid you planned to kill me from the beginning, right?"

Liu Bang shook his head, turned his back and walked out, his footsteps hanging in the air just before he stepped across the threshold.

"By the way, brother...I forgot to tell you something.

After returning to Peixian County, I hung around for a long time and gained a little momentum, so I changed my name.

Now, my name is Liu Bang..."
