"Your Majesty, in recent months, Wei Liao has been living in the mansion of Guowei Mengwu. Various military and political strategies have been coming out. He only needs to be unified in one place before he can take over the position of Guowei."
"He is a great talent. Since he entered the Qin Dynasty, he will not escape from the Qin Dynasty for no reason. If it is not internal to the Qin court, it is an external reason. What we should do now is to send people to recover Wei Liao immediately!"
The spiritual awareness spread, and Lieutenant Mengwu from Zhaode Palace kept walking back and forth anxiously. The news just now from the Shaofu Ling presumably came to Mengwu's mouth. Wei Liao was recommended by Meng Wu. Now that Wei Liao has left for no reason, this
It's no small matter.
In the hall, as Qin Wangzheng looked furious, the music and dancing stopped. After a few breaths, Zhou Qing stood up from his seat, waved his palms to those who were too happy, retreated automatically, bowed his hands and said something.
"What Mr. Wu Zhen said is true."
"Originally, I wanted to congratulate Li Ji tonight, but I didn't expect that something like this happened. Zhao Gao, Zhao Jing Liangren, and Han Chang sent them to Zhaode Palace to congratulate Li Ji on my behalf."
"Everyone, please leave first. Mr. Wu Zhen will leave the palace with me. He is a great talent and has fled Qin in a hurry. There must be something big happening. I want to see who is contributing to it!"
After being filled with anger for a few breaths, Qin Wangzheng drank another glass of wine, stood up leisurely, and looked at the figure of Lord Wu Zhen below. Listening to his words, he couldn't help but nod. The day before yesterday, he had received Wei Liao's document from Meng Wu.
If that Wei Liao wanted to leave, all he had to do was enter the palace and say a few words, then he wouldn't be too pushy. Now, leaving in a hurry must have some connotation, and someone must be causing trouble.
Quickly deciding on a strategy, he glanced at Li Ji on one side, and with his thoughts moving, he issued another command to the young master, Zhao Gao, to summon Mrs. Chu and the others to come over. However, the etiquette did not suit the situation, and Jing Liangren and the others' identities were suitable.
After saying all these words, he walked directly down the hall, nodded to Zhou Qing, glanced left and right, and left Zhaode Palace. The sky was completely dark at this moment. The king ordered, and Weiwei Li Xin quickly brought a few horses.
Liangju was followed by another hundred men, and together with Meng Wu, they left Xianyang Palace.
"Meng Wu, is there any sign of Wei Liao's departure from Qin?"
Qin Wangzheng and others left Xianyang Palace on horseback and went straight to the east gate and rushed to Hangu Pass, which was the main route from Qin State. If they crossed over the mountains and hills, it would take a long time, be difficult, and be full of obstacles.
There is considerable danger. If you can't find it at Hangu Pass, you still have plenty of time to prepare.
Running on the official road, holding the king's order, he heard the sound at each checkpoint and let him go from a distance. Looking at Meng Wu beside him, who also had an anxious expression, Zhou Qing quietly heard the sound.
"Your Majesty, Lord Wu Zhen, it's all Meng Wu's fault. Meng Wu should have thought of it and noticed something strange about Wei Liao!"
Hearing this, Meng Wu sighed, and while riding a fast horse, he spoke loudly, and cool whirlwinds passed by his ears. The scene in Shandong in the past two days was in his mind. Na Wei Liao had already shown signs of leaving Qin.
.
He said this without any concealment. He just told about the abnormal situation discovered from Wei Liao in the past two days. The day before yesterday, he sent a volume of documents written by Wei Liao to Xianyang Palace. After returning, he gathered with Wei Liao.
Drink joy.
The two of them had a great time, and the two jars of old Qin wine were almost at the bottom. During this period, Wei Liao talked about many things he had seen and heard in Qin, and repeated one sentence over and over again, Wei Liao had nothing to repay Qin, so what a pity!
Meng Wu didn't think much about it, he just thought that this was another way of saying that Wei Liao was repaying Qin's heart. He didn't pay attention to it and just continued talking to Wei Liaohai about the world. Unusually, he got drunk first.
When he woke up suddenly, his wife who was guarding the bed said that he had slept soundly all day and night. After Meng Wu took a bath, changed clothes and had a meal, it was already dusk, so he came to the side courtyard to see how Wei Liao was doing after drinking.
Wei Liao was not there, so he asked his old servant, who replied that he had been invited by two old friends to Shang Shangfang an hour ago to catch up with the social fire, and he might not come back tonight. Meng Wu's heart was moved at that time, Wei Liao secretly entered Qin, where did his old friend come from?
Invite?
When I walked into the study, I unexpectedly saw a bamboo board with writing on it. I picked it up and looked at it, and I just scrawled four words - I had to go.
In an instant, Meng Wu's heart was shaken. Without a moment's hesitation, he entered the palace and informed King Qin of the news. It had been more than an hour since Wei Liao left. I hope they haven't left Hangu Pass yet.
“Have to go!”
"It seems that Wei Liao is under threat. Among the six countries in Shandong, the only one with this ability is Wei Liao's home country Wei. A few days ago, according to the information from Zhao Gaoluo's network, with the entry of Wei Liao
During the Qin Dynasty, the number of people coming from Wei gradually increased."
"This matter is very similar to what happened with the Zheng State. Because the Zheng State and the Qin Dynasty attacked Nanyang in South Korea, this time I want to see how many cities the Wei State can defend."
"Li Xin, take my order and go to the camp outside the pass, ask General Huanjue to reorganize the army, and block all the key points entering the Six Kingdoms of Shandong. Wait for the king's letter to be issued at any time!"
Qin Wangzheng frowned. Since he had to go, it meant that what Wu Zhenjun said just now was justified. Someone else was causing trouble. As for who? No wonder the Six Kingdoms of Shandong, and the only one who could make Wei Liao do this was his family.
.
As a state captain for several generations, his family must be extraordinary in the Wei State. Under the pressure of the King of Wei, Wei Liao must be under tremendous pressure. Thinking of this, the King of Qin made a sarcastic comment. Didn't the Wei State see the fate of South Korea?
Immediately, he snorted coldly, took out a Black Dragon Order from his body, threw it to the guard Li Xin on one side, and asked him to bring it to General Huanjie. If he really did it for the Wei State, then he would wait to cede the territory.
"Your Majesty, it will take two hours at the fastest from Xianyang to Hangu Pass. We are already a little late in setting off. If we proceed like this, Wei Liao may have already left by the time we reach Hangu Pass."
"I'll go first. If I encounter Wei Liao, I'll leave him alone. If he's already out of the gate, with my speed, I should be able to catch him outside the gate!"
Seeing Li Xin holding the Wang Ling, shouting something, and leaving directly from the other direction, feeling this, Zhou Qing's whole body was flashing with rich purple mysterious light, and even with a leap, he was flying against the wind.
Leaving behind a clear voice, the whole person turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the depths of the eyes of Qin Wangzheng and Guo Wei Mengwu. Like shooting stars, they instantly surpassed the speed of horses and rushed towards Hangu Pass.
"Wu Zhenjun goes as he pleases. If it is really someone from Wei who did it, he will act in an expedient manner!"
Qin Wangzheng and Meng Wu were startled by Wu Zhenjun's methods at first. Lingxu Yufeng was already comparable to the methods of an immortal god. After Zheng Guoqu was completed, Wu Zhenjun did not take action for a long time, which made them somewhat forget that Wu Zhenjun himself was also a martial arts master.
.
He responded loudly, as Brother Wang said, it was already too late for them to set off now. With the speed shown by Wu Zhenjun, there might still be a chance. Otherwise, the Qin army would personally bring Wei Liao back.
******
"Xin Sheng, I didn't expect that you would be transferred to General Hangu Pass now."
"Before the retreat at Youshi today, is there any strange person coming out of the retreat?"
Separated from Qin Wangzheng and his entourage, he went all out. It took no more than three sticks of incense to rush from outside Xianyang City, across hundreds of miles, to the tower of Hangu Pass. The token was displayed. In a short time, A young general wearing heavy black armor appeared in front of him.
Against the backdrop of the lights of the city tower, I glanced over and saw something familiar. Then my eyes lit up and I saw that it was Xin Sheng who had been transferred from the palace to Wang Jian's tent by King Qin to listen to orders.
A few years ago, when I entered Xianyang, two military strategists entered the palace and were selected as palace swordsmen. Later, they were valued by the then guard Meng Wu and were transferred to the position of Zhonglang General. Not long after, the Chang'an Jun Chengjiao case occurred. , Xin Sheng came out of the palace to help.
Li Xin was left by Qin Wangzheng's side until today. It seems that Li Xin in the palace is constantly improving, and Xin Sheng has not stopped. He has been promoted to General Hangu Pass, not far from the former general in the army.
"Xin Sheng has met Lord Wu Zhen!"
"A strange person? This... before Hangu Pass retreated during the Youshi period, there were many people coming in and out. Most of them were merchants from the six countries and people from Qin. They had different culture and costumes, so it was difficult to tell them apart."
Naturally, Xin Sheng knew the new lord of the Qin Kingdom a few months ago. He had met Lord Wu Zhen once in the Qinian Palace. Now that we meet again, although he is General Hangu Pass, the other party is already A person who is granted the title of king has a noble status, is in the center, and has great authority.
Hearing Wu Zhenjun's words again, Xin Sheng's expression froze. What Wu Zhenjun said was too general. For a moment, he was really not sure what kind of strange person he was. As the gateway to the east of Qin State, there were too many people coming in and out every day. .
"Oh, by the way, a few months ago, Meng Wu introduced a great talent to Hangu Pass. He was Wei Guowei Liao. You should have... met him at that time, right?"
"Calculating the time, Wei Liao left Xianyang more than an hour ago. If he had worked faster, he should have passed the test just now. If not, I think he will be here soon!"
Zhou Qing shook his head helplessly. He wanted to guard one person in such a large Hangu Pass. If he had been prepared before, it would be okay. If not, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Looking at Xin Sheng in front of him, Zhou Qing suddenly remembered something. In order to enter the pass, he stopped a lot in front of Hangu Pass. As Meng Wu, General Hangu Pass must have been there, and it stands to reason that he should have seen Wei Liao.
"Wei Liao is from Wei, Xin Sheng has met him!"
"In the two incense sticks in front of Wu Zhenjun, Xin Sheng came to patrol Hangu Pass. During this period, only two caravans passed by, one was a Korean business traveler and the other was a Chu business traveler. Listening to his words and observing his actions, they were all impressed. There is no Mr. Wei Liao."
"If he left Xianyang more than an hour ago, then maybe Wei Liao hasn't left seclusion yet!"
As a soldier, he naturally knows the speed of march very well. From Hangu Pass to Xianyang City, it will take two hours even if the horse is working hard. Although I don’t know that Lord Wu Zhen will appear here directly, but it will definitely not be reached by ordinary people in more than an hour. of.
He bowed his hands and said in a deep voice, extremely confident.
"Very good. From now on, you will send people to strictly guard the three entrances and exits of Hangu Pass. No... leave only one exit. Anyone leaving the pass must be closely guarded. If there is any slight discrepancy, just take it. Down."
"In another hour or so, Your Majesty and the others will arrive at Hangu Pass. If they can retain Wei Liao, it will be a great achievement!"
When Yu Liao left Xianyang, there were not many routes. He either left Hangu Pass as quickly as possible, or took the Tongshan Trail and the Hexi Fortress. It took more time there, at least three or four hours.
If nothing was gained at Hangu Pass, it would be easy to rush to several other checkpoints. Soon, Zhou Qing looked down at the huge Hangu Pass from the top of the city tower. Under the dazzling lights, an area of 100 feet in radius was clearly visible.
After saying the words, he looked at Xin Sheng solemnly.
"Here!"
Xin Sheng bowed his hands and left.
"Wait a minute, it seems you don't need to bother too much, they... are already here!"
