Chapter 484 Zhang Liang is going to find a famous teacher
Under night.
The candle lamp is still lit in the room, the cold wind blows outside the window, and the small charcoal stove in the house emits a warm red color.
After giving Zhao Qiu the medicine, Bao didn't stay for a while before he got up and left. However, before leaving, Bao asked Bai Yan to work hard all night and take good care of Zhao Qiu. This was also Bao's first time following Bai Yan.
This time he took the initiative to ask Bai Yan to do something.
Due to emotions and reasons, whether it was because of Bao's face-to-face request or Zhao Qiu's previous help, Bai Yan finally stayed in Zhao Qiu's boudoir.
Seeing this scene, Bao left with peace of mind.
Bao Shi knows that when a woman is sick, she is extremely weak, both physically and mentally. At this time, any act of concern and any companionship will make the woman feel doubly useful.
"It can be seen that she is very happy during this period."
Zhao Qiu was lying on the bed, covered with a thick quilt. On his amazingly pretty face, there were wet spots on his forehead, but he didn't know whether it was because of the sweat or because he had been sleeping during the day. Zhao Qiu's expression at this moment seemed to be worse than
A few hours ago, it was much better.
"Her father has not spent much time with her since she was a child. After the death of her brother, who had the best relationship with her, it became even more deserted."
Bai Yan knelt down in front of the wooden table and knew that Zhao Qiu was talking about the Bao clan.
Thinking of the smile on the Bao family's face during this period, Bai Yan was also very happy. Unfortunately, the rest of the Bao family were in Chu State, and only Bao Yu came to Yanmen.
"She has been by your side for so long, and you haven't missed her at all? Such a beauty, just left in an empty room in the mansion?"
Zhao Qiu slowly turned her pretty face and looked at Bai Yan in front of the window.
This is something that Zhao Qiu has always wondered about. In all the time she has been here in the mansion, she has never seen Bai Yan spend the night in Baoshu's mansion. She knows clearly that this is not Baoshu's unwillingness.
Regarding Yan's affairs, Baoshu never cared about his wife or concubines.
Even Zhao Qiu, a woman, couldn't help being moved by Baoshu, so she somewhat understood Bai Yan.
"I haven't thought about it yet."
When Bai Yan heard Zhao Qiu's words, he turned to look at Zhao Qiu on the bed, shook his head, explained softly, and then yawned.
In cold weather, sitting by the fire late at night always makes people feel sleepy, especially when they stay up late, they miss a soft bed and a warm quilt the most.
"Then when are you going to think about it? After all, I want to be your concubine, why not do it as soon as possible?"
Zhao Qiu was silent for a while after hearing Bai Yan's words, and then looked at Bai Yan, full of confusion.
This time, Bai Yan did not look at Zhao Qiu, but reached out and took another roll of bamboo slips from the pile of bamboo slips beside the wooden table.
"Wait until that day when I, Bai Yan, have the ability to let her appear in front of the world, and then think about this again!"
While Bai Yan was talking, he opened the bamboo slip despite being sleepy, then picked up the pen and ink and started writing.
Beside the wooden window.
Under the candlelight, the figure of the young man lowering his head to write a bamboo slip was stared at by Zhao Qiu on the bed. What was surprising was that after Zhao Qiu heard Bai Yan's words, he never mentioned the question just now.
Zhao Qiu was wrapped tightly in the thick quilt, and the sweat almost eroded the clothes Zhao Qiu wore. However, looking at the young man, Zhao Qiu could see it very clearly.
"Can you tell me what happened when you were in Qi State?"
Zhao Qiu said.
From Mr. Wei, Zhao Qiu learned a lot about Bai Yan, including how Mr. Bao and Bai Yan met, and the fact that the young man was kicked out of the Tian Mansion. However, Zhao Qiu knew nothing about the young man's earlier events.
You know, in the past when she came into contact with Bai Yan, she was mostly grudge-y. Perhaps thinking that she was idle now, Zhao Qiu was suddenly very curious and wanted to know some of the boy's stories and experiences.
Especially on the first day of the year, Zhao Qiu saw Bai Yan in the study. That night Bai Yan was sitting on his knees in front of the wooden table. He was wearing a very ordinary and ordinary coarse cloth with countless holes patched.
"I?"
When Bai Yan heard Zhao Qiu's words, he looked at Zhao Qiu in surprise.
Looking at Zhao Qiu's cold and pretty face full of curiosity and beautiful eyes full of expectation, Bai Yan was silent for a moment. Considering that Zhao Qiu already knew that he was kicked out by Tian Mansion, he did not hide it. After all, if
If Zhao Qiu has the opportunity in the future, he will send someone to investigate and find out about him.
then.
Bai Yan thought for a while under Zhao Qiu's gaze.
"The village where I grew up is called Shuicun. It is a very small village, just outside Linzi City."
"When I was young, the villagers and children about my age would always laugh at me, even the elders in the village. When my grandmother heard about it, she would always pick up a broom and drive them away with a wave. After that.
"
In front of the wooden table, Bai Yan introduced the village, parents, brothers, and an incident in the village to Zhao Qiu. When he mentioned his childhood experiences and when his grandmother protected him with a broom, Bai Yan smiled.
He raised his hand and described it with his hands as he spoke.
Zhao Qiu lay on the bed, listening quietly, and looked at Bai Yan, who was kneeling in front of the wooden table. He was calm at first, but then smiled more and more as he talked.
this moment.
Zhao Qiu found that it seemed like this was the first time she understood the young man in front of her.
It turned out that he had grown up ridiculed by the villagers since he was a child. Listening to Bai Yan's words, she could imagine that scene, and she could also imagine the old woman who she had never met before, but who always protected Bai Yan.
Twilight.
Zhao Qiu's beautiful eyes looked at the young man talking excitedly in front of the wooden table, and she found that,
He misses home!
Although the young man didn't say anything, she could clearly feel it when she looked at the young man's expression.
When she heard that the young man left home and wanted to fulfill that sentence, she finally learned all about the young man's past. She thought about the young man's identity and status now, and then thought about the villagers, especially those who were most willing to slander and laugh at Bai Yan.
's woman.
Zhao Qiu couldn't help but purse his lips to hold back a smile, and a hint of ridicule appeared in his beautiful eyes.
What he did in the past, will he still have the guts to see the boy again in the future?
inside the room.
I don’t know how much time passed. As the boy finished speaking, as the room became quiet, in the night, maybe an hour had passed, or maybe two hours had passed. The candlelight was still on, the stove still had charcoal fire, and the boy, looking at
Looking at it, I finally couldn't help but feel tired, and fell asleep in front of the wooden table.
"It's not like I haven't slept yet, so I have to lie down on the wooden table."
In the quiet room, a word suddenly rang out.
Zhao Qiu's beautiful eyes looked at Bai Yan who would rather sleep on the wooden table than come to sleep on the bed.
After all, this time, she finally understood why Bai Yan didn't think about possessing Bao Shu like other men all the time, and why even though Bai Yan had slept on this bed, he would rather sleep on it now.
I don't want to sleep on a bed.
If he wasn't like this, how could he be him?
Shan Wu City.
It was dark, and it was not only the sick Zhao Qiu who was awake late at night. In a very remote courtyard in Shanwu City, Zhang Liang stood under the dark night, feeling the cold wind and looking at the bright moon in the sky.
"I, Zhang Liang, will kill Lord Changping and Lord Changwen of Qin in this life, and massacre their clan!"
Zhang Liang's elegant face, his eyes were red and filled with resentment.
From the time when the Zhang family was framed and their reputation was ruined, to the murder of King Han, and now Zhang Shuo also died in the hands of Lord Changwen, the Zhang family and Zhang Liang were destined to fight to the death with Lord Changping and Lord Changwen in this life.
"Good ambition!"
A sighing voice came from behind.
Zhang Liang looked at Haoyue with unwilling eyes. After a few breaths, he heard footsteps behind him, and then turned around and looked at Uncle Yu, Bao Sun, and Uncle Zhang Xiao who had brought them here today.
Zhang Liang raised his hand and bowed his head to salute the three of them.
it is more than words.
"If you have such an ambition as your wife, why worry about failing to achieve great things!"
Uncle Yu smiled and said to Zhang Liang who was saluting, and then looked at Zhang Xiao beside him.
Zhang Xiao smiled and nodded, seemingly in agreement, but did not speak.
"Uncle Yu must not say anything about Zifang's indignation, or let Zifang be laughed at!"
Zhang Liang said to Uncle Yu, his words filled with disappointment.
Uncle Yu shook his head.
"This is wrong! My ambition is set between heaven and earth, how can anyone laugh at it!"
Uncle Yu stood with his hands behind his back, waved his hands in front of Zhang Xiao and Zhang Liang, and spoke.
"Besides, although you did not take off the head of Lord Changwen this time, it happened that Lord Changping disregarded the morality of the world and executed the King of Han. The anger of the people in the world is obvious to all. When everyone in the world hears that it is your Zhang family, they will definitely do it for Han.
The king took revenge and assassinated Lord Chang Wen. Who else in the world does not know that the Zhang family was framed in the past!"
Uncle Yu explained, looking at Zhang Liang, and then at Zhang Xiao: "At that time, Mrs. Zhang raised her arms and called out. With Zhang's prestige, why worry about the clans in the world not responding?"
Under the bright moon.
In the hazy moonlight, as the cold wind blew by, Zhang Xiao and Zhang Liang looked at each other in surprise after hearing Yu Bo's words.
This is true! Although the assassination of Lord Chang Wen will not restore all the nobles' trust in the Zhang family, at least half of them will trust the Zhang family again, and the rest will no longer be as hostile to the Zhang family as before.
"But now, how are we going to leave Yanmen and go to Daidi!"
After Zhang Liang thought for a while, he looked at Uncle Yu and asked about something he had not asked about when he was drinking.
Since Yanmen is already the territory of the Qin State, and Daidi is the territory ruled by the Zhao State, and the Huns had just experienced the incident, the passes from Yanmen to Daidi are all guarded by heavy troops, and there is no passage order from Bai Yan.
, trying to pass it is tantamount to wishful thinking.
If they hadn't bumped into Uncle Yu who suddenly appeared in the restaurant, the Zhang family would have wanted to risk contacting Bai Yan and go to Daidi.
Regarding this Uncle Yu, both Zhang Xiao and Zhang Yi felt that they could still trust him. After all, Mr. Zhang had occasionally heard of this famous person before, and what Uncle Yu said to Zhang Xiao when they were in the restaurant made sense.
Regarding Mi Jing's matter, Bai Yan has intentionally let Mi Jing go. This is undoubtedly because he wants to be on good terms with Lord Changping and Lord Changwen.
It would be unwise to want to see Bai Yan at this time.
"You don't have to worry about leaving Yanmen."
When Uncle Yu heard Zhang Liang's words, he confidently said, "Don't worry Zhang Liang. The traffic order issue is not difficult."
Zhang Liang and Zhang Xiao were silent for a few breaths after hearing Uncle Yu's words. They both guessed that Gongzi Jia must have secretly arranged for someone to be around Bai Yan. Otherwise, Gongzi Jia would not know everything about Bai Yan, and that person's
His status must not be low, otherwise Uncle Yu would not be so determined to pass the pass and go to Daidi.
Thinking of this, both Zhang Liang and Zhang Xiao were very curious.
It's a pity that both of them know that this person is obviously extremely important, and there is no way that Gongzi Jia will tell them.
"Zifang, I have just discussed with your uncle. At that time, there was an assassination. Changping Lord is still in Yingchuan County, not far from the Chu land. It is not appropriate for you to return to Chu hastily. It is better to stay in Dai land and wait and see what happens."
Uncle Yu suddenly looked at Zhang Liang and said softly.
Compared with Zhang Yan who was already drunk, Uncle Yu and Bao Sun both believed that with Zhang Xiao's character, the Zhang family should be handed over to Zhang Liang in the future. Therefore, Uncle Yu and Bao Sun also thought about persuading Zhang Liang to join them this time.
Staying in the land of Dai and getting along with King Dai when the time comes is the best of both worlds. Zhang will use her connections to help King Dai. King Dai will not only protect Zhang but also secretly help Zhang restore Korea.
"Thank you!"
Zhang Liang heard Uncle Yu's words and bowed gratefully to Uncle Yu.
When Uncle Yu saw this, he frowned slightly, obviously knowing what Zhang Liang meant, and Zhang Xiao was also a little surprised.
"Just now, Zifang has decided that after arriving at Dai, Zifang will stay for a few days and then go to Qi alone to find a teacher to learn from!"
Zhang Liang cupped his hands and explained.
After the words fell, Uncle Yu thought for a moment, his eyes suddenly condensed, and then he looked at Zhang Liang.
"Is Zifang planning to find the old man riding the bull?"
Uncle Yu asked.
When Zhang Fang and Bao Sun heard this, they also looked at Zhang Liang. Naturally, they had heard about the things that had been spreading in Qi State during this period.
When Zhang Liang heard Uncle Yu's words, he raised his hands in a serious salute without any explanation, but this gesture was more silent than loud.
Looking at Zhang Liang who had made up his mind, Uncle Yu and Bao Sun looked at each other and thought for a while, but they could understand. After all, not to mention Zhang Liang who now had a blood feud, even the king had sent news that they
Send more people to look for the old bull rider in Yanmen territory.
And today, not only King Dai, but also Wei, Chu, and Qi are all looking for this old man.
"Forget it! If the ovary finds a master in the future, please don't forget us!"
Seeing that Zhang Liang had made up his mind, Uncle Yu did not do anything more to persuade him. Zhang Xiao was still here, which was enough for the acting king.
As for whether Zhang Liang can find the old man riding the bull, Uncle Yu doesn't have much hope. After all, not to mention so many nobles in Qi State are looking for him. Even the King of Qi and many ministers of Qi State are looking everywhere. Zhang Liang wants to find the old man.
,Disaster!
If they are lucky enough to find it, it will be a great good thing for them.
After a while.
As Uncle Yu and Bao Sun returned to their room, only Zhang Xiao and Zhang Liang were left in the cold courtyard.
"Zifang, are you really going to find the old man riding the bull?"
Zhang Xiao looked at his nephew Zhang Liang with some worry. The old man riding the bull was too mysterious and there was no news at all. It was almost impossible for Zhang Liang to find him.
"Zifang has figured out that if he wants to destroy the Qin Dynasty and restore Korea, he can only find the old man. Even if it takes ten or twenty years, even if he searches for him in this lifetime, there will be no results."
Zhang Liang looked at Zhang Xiao seriously: "Zifang has no regrets!"
How could Zhang Liang not know how difficult it was to find the old man riding a bull? But Zhang Liang firmly believed that as long as he searched for it by himself, as long as he had more perseverance than others, as long as he spent more time than others, three years, five years
, ten years later, as the story of his search for people spreads, it will definitely reach the ears of the old man riding the bull.
When the time comes, the old man riding the bull will definitely feel his sincerity and see himself.
Under night.
Zhang Xiao looked at Zhang Liang and seemed to feel Zhang Liang's determination. However, considering that Zhang's family had been exposed, Zhang Liang might be in danger if he rashly traveled around the world alone.
As Zhang Xiao remained silent, Zhang Liang seemed to have guessed something.
"The hatred of the Zhang family, the hatred of my father, the hatred of the clan brothers, the hatred of the country's destruction, and the hatred of the King of Han, I dare not forget it! I hope that my family will be accurate!"
After Zhang Liang finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Xiao, his eyes full of pleading.
Zhang Xiao looked at Zhang Liang's appearance and finally softened his heart and nodded slowly. He also hoped that Zhang Liang could find the legendary old man. By then, there would be more opportunities whether it was to revitalize the Zhang family or restore Korea.
Early the next morning, as the sky became brighter, under a slightly gloomy sky.
Zhang Xiao, Zhang Liang and others, who got up early, discovered that Uncle Yu had indeed obtained the customs clearance order. Fortunately, they all knew this person and they should not inquire too much about him. Zhang Xiao and Zhang Liang did not say much.
After receiving the customs clearance order, Zhang Xiao, Uncle Yu and others, who were worried about the long nights and dreamy dreams, decided to leave Yanmen County immediately and arrive in Dai to see King Dai as early as possible.
On the other side, just as Zhang Xiao, Zhang Liang and others were leaving Shanwu, Lord Changping in Yangzhu City, Yingchuan, saw the bamboo slips sent by Lord Changwen. He was furious and slapped the wooden table with his palm in anger.
superior.
"Zhang!!!"
Chang Pingjun's staring eyes were full of ferocity, with protruding veins, and he gritted his teeth and said these two words.
Thinking of the death of his eldest son Mi Numa, everything has been answered with the appearance of the Zhang family. At this moment, Lord Changping has only one thought: to avenge his eldest son and kill everyone in the Zhang family.
"Someone is coming!"
After Changping Jun breathed rapidly for a moment, he looked out the door with a sinister expression.
"grown ups!"
A close aide approached the room and saluted Mr. Changping.
Even the closest confidants of Lord Changping, looking at Lord Changping at this moment, they have never seen Lord Changping like this before.
In front of wooden table.
Lord Changping endured the anger in his heart, took a roll of bamboo slips from the wooden stand, came to the wooden table and started writing.
"Send a letter to Chu!"
After Changping Jun finished writing, he handed the bamboo slips to his cronies. Changping Jun wanted to use all his connections to take revenge on the Zhang family until death.
"promise!"
The confidant accepted the order, took the bamboo slip with both hands, took a few steps back, turned around and left.
After his cronies left with the bamboo slips, Lord Changping tried to calm down. After a long time, he got up and left the study.
Outside the governor's mansion.
More than a hundred prisoners in civilian clothes, with their hands tied from behind, all staggered and very weak, stood in the open space outside the mansion. Dozens of Qin officials held long swords and watched this scene.
These were Xinzheng men who had participated in the rebellion before. Although they were not the masterminds, rebellion was rebellion. In order to be severely punished and warned, the end would certainly not be easy. Although they would not die, they would not be punished with hard labor.
"Mr. Changping, everyone is already here!"
A middle-aged man wearing the official uniform of the Qin State raised his hands and said after seeing Lord Changping coming out.
Chang Pingjun nodded upon seeing this.
Looking at these people who participated in the rebellion, it was because of these people that they came to Yingchuan. Lord Changping's eyes were full of anger. Now that he thought of the Zhang family, Lord Changping wanted to kill these people immediately to vent his anger.
"Send to Lishan!"
Lord Changping ordered.
Originally, these people only needed to participate in rebuilding the city in Xinzheng, but now, Lord Changping has changed his mind. He wants all these rebels to build mausoleums.
Lord Changping knew that with the punishment these people were receiving, even if these people could make it to Lishan alive, they would never leave Lishan again in this life.
"promise!"
The Qin officials were a little surprised at first, but they glanced at Lord Changping. Seeing the look in Lord Changping's eyes, they nodded quickly and turned to give orders to the Qin officials.
"Send to Lishan!"
In an instant, many Qin officials waved their long swords and began to drive the prisoners away.
"Lishan?"
"Why Lishan!"
"Sir, please let us go!"
When countless prisoners heard that they were going to Lishan, their already desperate faces could no longer see any hope at this moment.
Since these prisoners had all participated in arresting the people of Xinzheng during the previous rebellion, they were all identified by the people of Xinzheng after the city was destroyed.
Among the many prisoners, there were two people whom Bai Yan was very familiar with, namely Hu Yi and Lu Ji. Although I don’t know why Hu Yi and Lu Ji were not executed, but compared to the beginning, no matter what it is now,
Although Hu Yi and Lu Ji survived, they became less human. Their eyes were hollow, their expressions were numb, their noses were missing, and their bloody faces looked horrifying. They were no longer as high-spirited as before.
"Walk!"
"Let's go!"
A Qin official held a long sword and drove the prisoners one by one towards the outside of the city.
Having mentioned the Bao family, Zhao Qiu also knew about Bai Yan, but Zhao Qiu's matter was not mentioned.
