When archery, people must hold the bow sideways and nock the arrow. Who would be in the upright arching posture?
Zhiyao has been practicing archery since she was a child. She was able to hit the mark with perfect accuracy even when she was still young. As she grew older and gained more strength, the tension of the bow became stronger and stronger.
Because of his convenient status, Zhiyao not only uses more sophisticated bows, but also chooses the best quality arrows, which to some extent is a blessing to his archery skills.
Just now Zhiyao shot two arrows. The first one he chose was to shoot Hu You's hair bundle as a warning. When he saw that he didn't admit defeat, he simply destroyed Hu You's bow.
Those two arrows belong to the boldness of a skilled person. If he misses even slightly, the first arrow will hit the brain, and the second arrow will definitely hit the torso.
Zhao Bolu knew that Zhiyao's shooting skills were very powerful and he had always known it.
Han Geng, who arrived behind, must have known about it, so he opened his mouth to say hello without delay.
Han Geng learned late that Zhao Bolu had a conflict with Hu You. When he went to the Zhao family, he found out that Zhi Yao had already arrived and that Zhi Yao had taken Zhao Bolu to find a place.
We arrived at the Hu family's house again. Zhi Yao, Zhao Bolu and Hu You had already left. Han Geng, who had heard that he had left the city, rushed over. It happened that Zhi Yao and Hu You had started their training.
Zhiyao first saw Hu You's chariot slowing down and continued to stare until Hu You's chariot stopped completely and Hu You had no weapon in his hand, then he moved his gaze to Han Geng's position.
Looking at it, Zhiyao saw that Zhao Wuxie was also present, and thought: "I didn't see Zhao Wuxie when I went to Zhao's before. So he is with Han's?"
If Zhao Wuxie can go to the Han family at any time and play with Han Geng, it only shows that the Han family's attitude towards Zhao Wuxie is worthy of further study.
"Your shooting skills are far better than mine." Hu You's scalp was still hurting, but in his heart he admired Zhiyao's shooting skills very much. Generally speaking, he was completely stunned.
Zhiyao was not modest at all, nodded and said: "Of course."
In fact, Zhiyao must have practiced close combat, but the gap is a bit different compared to the shooting skills. It should be said that he can make two gestures. If he encounters a master, he will probably kneel down in seconds.
Hu You seemed to have a little silly joy, then turned around and ordered: "Execute him."
Who should be executed? Of course Huyou’s car is on the right side.
The main responsibility of the right chariot is to hold a shield and block arrows for the chariot commander. Killing enemies is purely a guest appearance.
It has been made clear just now that the bow and arrow will serve at long range, and it is the turn to fight with the gun at close range. The failure to prevent the first arrow from the right side of the car can be said to be unprepared. It is a complete dereliction of duty not to take up position to help defend against the arrow the second time.
Zhiyao, Zhao Bolu and Han Geng didn't say anything about Hu You's execution of his Che You, and they would probably do the same thing.
To be reasonable, I entrusted my life to Che You. As a result, Che You made two mistakes in a row. If he didn't execute him, would he still show his stupid generosity, or would he cheat himself one day?
Hu You took the initiative to salute Zhao Bolu, ordered someone to fetch a horse, handed over the reins, and said, "Has this matter been exposed?"
Zhao Bolu looked at Hu You with the blood on his head flowing down his face. He still felt very unhappy. The matter had reached this point, so he hesitated and nodded to express that it was over.
At this time, Zhiyao felt a little enlightened and thought to herself: "The Hu family is a bit interesting. I don't know if it was Hu Jie's idea or Hu You's own actions to test the Zhao family and officially enter the top second generation through today's incident."
Circle?"
What's the meaning?
After all, after the Hu family obtains the title of minister, what will be the attitude of the other minister-ranked families in Jin towards them?
Therefore, the conflict broke out between Hu You and Zhao Bolu, which was a temporary conflict between the juniors. The two families did not end up with each other, and the juniors were just fighting on their own.
If the Zhao family's Crown Prince's strength can be tested in this conflict, it will not only be a good thing for the Hu family, but also other families will definitely be happy.
There is a possibility that conflicts will increase in the future, and there will definitely be families who will act as peacemakers. Anyway, the Hu family and the Zhao family will not immediately enter a life-or-death situation.
What is now doubtful is whether the sale of the horse was arranged by the Fox family.
"You go immediately to arrest the horse trafficker Zheng." Zhiyao found an opportunity and whispered instructions to Yurang.
What? The Zhi family can actually arrest people at will? What's so strange about this? Given the particularity of the current era, as long as the family is strong enough, it has the privilege of dominating.
The laws of the Jin State were aimed at equal classes, and were really not formulated for slaves and concubines.
Of course, nobles generally have the power to enforce the law over their own families and cannot interfere with other families.
The people who are qualified to enforce the law throughout the Jin Kingdom are Sikou, but generally they only deal with bandits. Once a Jin noble breaks the law, the army of a certain high-ranking family will suppress them, beat them up and arrest them. After the trial, they will
Whatever happens, so be it.
In terms of law enforcement, among the countries of the Zhuxia system, Jin is considered the best. At least the nobles who bully the common people of their own family will be punished. The other princes do not care at all from national laws to human relations. Even if they are bullied or something like that
The civilian master just felt that he was not good-looking, so the possibility of revenge was very small.
To put it bluntly, the nobles see the common people as ants, so it’s not a crime for them to risk their lives for the sake of ants, right?
On the Jin side, it was out of a need for competition. Anyway, there was no legitimate reason, otherwise there would be many nobles who were willing to take action to make themselves fatter.
Perhaps the inability to bully common people across clans increased Li Shu's sense of belonging to the master above him, and was one of the reasons why Jin was able to dominate?
As for nobles being punished for breaking the law, or even being put to death, the Jin State actually followed the path of Emperor Xin.
The blood theory during the Yin and Shang Dynasties was much stricter than that of the Zhou royal family. When nobles committed crimes, they were basically punished with small punishments and large warnings. Killing one of them would cause an uproar among the entire class.
Emperor Xin refused to accept the restrictions of mainstream thinking and killed any nobles he wanted. In particular, he arbitrarily accepted fugitives from other nobles, appointed naturally guilty people, and also reduced the frequency of sacrifices. He must have tried to destroy all members of the ruling class at the time.
It's so annoying.
What is a naturally guilty person? Based on the situation of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, they were actually the defeated party, and slaves were also a group with their own original sin.
The Yin and Shang Dynasties were an era of theocracy. Reducing the number of sacrifices was tantamount to depriving the nobles of their right to dominate.
The reason why the Jin State followed Emperor Xin's route is not only that the death of one or two nobles in other countries is also a big deal, but the death of the Jin State's nobles often means death.
Why did he talk about that? The main reason was that Hu You treated the wounds hastily, told Zhiyao and others about the days when he was a foreigner, and then compared it with the situation here in Jin.
In fact, Jin people have no interest at all in how foreigners live.
In the eyes of Jin people, the foreigners are just a bunch of guys who can be punished casually. Who cares what they do?
Zhi Yao couldn't bear to be interested, so he would occasionally ask Hu You some things, and the others gave Zhi Yao face, so Hu You could talk endlessly.
Hu You emphasized the sacrifices of the Hu people and even jokingly said that many nomadic tribes were replicas of the Yin and Shang Dynasties.
"Various 'witches' or 'shamans' have great power in various tribes, and can even influence who can be the leader? This phenomenon is indeed very similar to that of the Yin and Shang Dynasties." After hearing this, Zhiyao made a comparison in her mind.
This phenomenon can hardly be seen in the various vassal states of the Zhou royal family. To a certain extent, it is precisely because of this that the Zhou royal family declined and could never get up again.
"Speaking of which, it was only in the Middle Ages that Europa entered the Yin-Shang system of the Xia, and even reached the point where the Pope could not ascend to the throne without recognition." Zhiyao thought of this again.
Where are they now? In fact, they are right where they are.
At first, they just stood and chatted. Later, they sent people back to say hello. Each family brought carpets, tables and various foods, and they were arranged on the spot. There was a place for socializing.
Hu You is obviously trying to improve his sense of existence. For this reason, he doesn't care about deepening Hu's past of being a fool, and talks about it as interesting things.
At the back, Wei Ju was invited by Zhiyao, which meant that except for the undecided subordinate, all the princes of the Qing family were here.
Among them, Zhao Wuxie was in the right place, but Zhao Bolu didn't seem to notice the threat from Zhao Wuxie, or he stubbornly believed that he was the eldest son of the family and should take care of his younger brother, so he arranged a seat behind Zhao Wuxie.
Zhao Guanjie, who knew there was a gap in his status, remained silent throughout the whole process. Did he have any thoughts in his mind because of the chatting and laughing among the several princes? Looking at the occasional changes in his eyes, it was obvious that he did.
Wei Ju waited for Zhiyao and Hu You to finish chatting about foreign races, and then said rather suddenly: "Chu Fu went north to attack the Man clan."
The Wei family had frequent exchanges with the Rong people, and the Man family belonged to a branch of the Rong people. They were the first to get the news, so it was hard to be surprised.
Wei Ju looked at Hu You deliberately as he spoke, with a strange expression on his face.
The Hu family is in the northwest of Jin State, and the Man family is in the southwest of Jin State. There should be no chance for communication between the two parties?
Therefore, Hu You heard what Wei Ju said and looked at him with that expression. He didn't react at first, but when he reacted he guessed that Wei Ju was doubting whether Hu could complete the payment.
"I haven't thought about returning home until I can serve the country." Hu You said with a smile.
That is a certain thing. The reason is that the Zhao family and the Wei family are held back by the Fan family. The Zhi family has just changed its head. If the Jin State responds to the Chu State sending troops northward, the Han family will have no choice but to stand up and carry the banner.
The Hu family, who had just obtained the title of Qing, also performed well.
Zhao Bolu said: "I also heard that Wu intends to attack Qi."
Zhao's news came from the State of Lu, and the State of Lu learned it from the State of Song. By the time the news reached the State of Jin, King Wu Fu Chai had probably led his troops to invade the State of Qi.
Based on Zhiyao's understanding of the current situation of Qi State, he can be 100% sure that Qi State will kneel down this time.
Under Tian Qi's jumping up and down control, several princes of Qi State challenged the throne of the king. They had already started fighting among themselves, and they were invaded by the Wu army. It would be strange not to shed a layer of skin.
Hu You looked at Zhiyao and asked, "Will Yao go on an expedition?"
At this moment, the others immediately looked at Zhiyao, and seemed to have a lot of expectations.
They did a great job with Zhiyao last time, bringing honor to the country, earning political prestige for the family, and personally benefiting greatly. They are very happy to follow Zhiyao to make contributions again!
