At the end of the third year of King Qin's reign, late December, was the official day for the clan leader's birthday.
In Daqing, the Shennong family in Jiangshui City had plenty of food. They hosted running-flow banquets for guests, which was already the most luxurious thing in this era.
After celebrating all day, the next morning, Mu Yangjing and Jiang Jibiao drove back to Xianyang.
Just when the two of them got on the chariot and were about to set off, a few people quickly walked out of the crowd of people who came out to see them off: "Queen Qin, wait a moment."
Several people who walked towards the carriage were stopped by the Qin army and did not have a chance to get close to the carriage.
Yu Gui sat high on a tall horse whose body was as red as flames, looking at the people in front of her coldly.
The leader is a middle-aged man, wearing warm yellow clothes, handsome appearance, with a small mole on the arch of his eyebrow, fair skin, and the aura of being pampered and having been in a high position for a long time.
The three or five people following him were all attachés.
These people are from another clan, the Si family.
The Si family is said to be a remnant of the Xia Dynasty before the Shang Dynasty, and they were also from a powerful clan.
The leader is named Si Kuan, and he is the second most important figure in the Si family after the head of the family. He is tall and thin.
Next to him was a junior member of his family, who was in his early twenties, strong and majestic.
After being stopped by Yu Gui's soldiers, he looked unhappy and said: "I am a member of the Si family, don't you know that, how dare you be so rude!
We have something to say."
Yu Gui said calmly: "If you have anything to say, just say it here so that the queen and everyone in Mu can hear it."
Si Kuan, the leader, smiled and bowed to the frame without feeling dissatisfied:
"I know that Jiang Xi, the Shennong clan, returned to Xianyang today. My sister-in-law's family has given me something as a token of friendship with Qin."
An attendant behind him opened the sandalwood box, and inside was a pair of antique copper bells: "These are heart-tone bells. The sound of the bells can clear the mind, concentrate the mind, and promote spiritual practice."
This pair of bells is an ancient artifact from the near-immortal world."
Discussions suddenly broke out among the Shennong people who came to watch the Queen of Qin's carriage ceremony.
The Si family gave away ancient artifacts from near immortals, which was quite a gesture.
Jiang Si's voice came from inside the carriage: "The Si family is serious about it, so there is no need for gifts.
I will convey the wishes of the Si family to your Majesty on your behalf."
Yu Gui waved her hand: "Get up."
The team, supported by thousands of soldiers, set off immediately.
The whole team made no noise at all. There was a sense of solemnity in the silence, and they slowly walked away.
Si Kuan slowly retreated into the crowd.
Soon after, he came alone to the wooden attic where the Shennong family had invited the Si family to live.
Here, Si Wenxin, the head of the Si family, and another tall and thin middle-aged man were standing at the attic window, looking at the escorting team of the Queen of Qin going away.
Si Kuan approached the head of the family, Si Wenxin: "Jiang Xi and Jiang Su came back to celebrate their birthdays this time. During a total of four days, we went to ask for permission six times, but we were all rejected.
The female general in charge of guarding is a saint from the Butian Sect, and has the cultivation of a saint. She has no chance of getting close, and the things have not been given away."
Si Wenxin smiled and said: "Don't worry, look at the momentum of this Qin army."
He pointed at the procession of the Queen of Qin who was walking slowly away.
Thousands of Qin troops were like a winding black dragon, and the weapons in the hands of the soldiers were like sharp claws, dragging away, which was extremely frightening.
"The people of Qin are so powerful that they come to the DPRK from all directions, so naturally our family will not be left behind.
The Queen of Qin is not easy to get close to, so get closer to the Shennong clan, the Ji family, and the Butian Sect, and you will eventually find opportunities to get closer to the Qin clan."
Si Wenxin glanced at the tall and thin man beside him: "What do you think, Brother Jing?"
The man beside him is Jing Bian, the head of the Jing family in Yandi.
He was also looking at the retreating Qin army, and said with emotion: "Sure enough, there is a majestic atmosphere that is unparalleled in the world. We cannot win at once, but we have to work hard to achieve it."
Brother Si’s words are good advice.”
Si Wenxin looked at Si Kuan: "My Si's family wants to marry Mu Yangjing. Since she won't marry him, we should change our strategy and let the younger generations of the family interact more with other women from the Shennong family, the Ji family, and the women from the Butian Sect.
, and gradually close the relationship with these families."
Si Kuan bowed: "I will pass on the family master's order right now."
A few days passed by.
In early January, it was cold.
Wei, Daliang.
A message was sent to Wei Wang Wei Wu: "Your Majesty, the news sent by the Yan people, the Si family, the Jing family tried to contact Qin Queen Jiang Shu, and Shennong's Mu Yangjing, but they failed..."
"It doesn't matter."
Wei Wu is in a very good mood recently.
He had already tested the Yin Shang military strategy on the Wei army, and the effect was beyond imagination.
After some time passed, Wei Wu regained some of his ambitions when he first came to the throne: "Our great Wei army is getting stronger day by day, so why should we fear Qin? The next day, our elite Wei army will be able to suppress the Qin army head-on on the battlefield."
At the same time, another message was also sent to Zhuxian Cave Heaven.
In the large palace, the Moon-Wang Lady and the Thunder Drum Mother met:
"There is news that the Jing family tried to get close to the Qin clan, but the progress was unfavorable and no opportunity was found."
"It's okay, it's just the beginning."
Mother Lei Gu said: "If we can get close to the Qin people's clan and exert influence on the Qin people, it will be of great benefit to our plan."
He added: "I am afraid that people from other countries will not think that the Jing family is not only an ancient clan that has entered the world, but also people who have been taught by me. We are secretly involved in promoting most of the things that countries do."
The Lady Wan Yue sighed: "Actually, all countries are not easy people, they are all powerful countries that emerged from the vassal period.
It's just that the Qin people have been too strong in recent years, which has overwhelmed other countries.
The newly destroyed Zhao and the current Yan have suppressed the Xiongnu, Donghu and other foreign tribes, making it difficult for them to advance even an inch, which shows their power.
However, the Zhao people, who are good at fighting, were defeated by the Qin people so quickly, which really surprised me."
Old Mother Lei Gu nodded: "It's a pity that the people of Qin don't listen to discipline and have the ambition to annex the world. This is inconsistent with the plan of my teaching.
The people of Qin are too ambitious and are destined to only prosper for a short time."

Early January.
The weather is getting colder.
Xuangu Academy, Flower and Grass Residence.
The entrance to a small cave slowly stretched out here.
It's freezing outside, but inside the cave it's warm and the flowers are blooming, unaffected by the outside temperature at all.
In this small cave obtained by Zhao Huaizhong's sacrifice, there are two low hills adjacent to each other, and in the middle of the hill is a quiet lake.
The lake water is clear and a little sweet, so you can drink it without being a porter.
The lake water is diverted into streams that spread throughout the cave.
Entering from the entrance is hundreds of acres of fertile fields, and there is a small forest on the left.
Zhao Huaizhong believes that such a cave is most suitable for use as a base for vegetable greenhouses and is a natural greenhouse.
Mu Yangjing had previously tried to plant exotic flowers and rare herbs in the space of the Sheji Tu. Later, Lieutenant General Zhao Huai detained the captured monsters in the Sheji Tu, and the plan to plant them in the map was abandoned halfway.
Now that we have this cave, we can bring in medicinal herbs, fruit trees and other species.
Mu Yangjing was in the cave at the moment, with a pretty face filled with joy.
Zhao Huaizhong is also here.
The cave was newly opened, and Qin generals such as Jiang Ji, Yu Gui, and Lu Buwei also came to watch the excitement.
“We can try planting wheat, rice and other crops that are expected to be promoted next year in this cave.
