The knife was retracted into its scabbard, and there was no more murderous intent.
The Hongmen Banquet was almost over. Although the sword dance show was very exciting and could be watched without refueling, Xiang Yu did not have the determination to kill, so in the end Liu Bang survived.
Qin Jianxun's powerful voice sounded in the big tent:
"Not far to the northwest of Junzhou, there is Canglangzhou, located in the center of the Danjiang River. It has a radius of several miles. The land is fertile and can keep Lu Xiangsheng and others alive."
"Eldest Princess, I have ordered the Taoist priests to vacate a separate courtyard on Taizi Slope so that she can practice her cultivation there."
Qin Jianxun put down the map in his hand and looked up at Lin Zhenyu.
"What do you think? Is this arrangement satisfactory to Officer Lin?"
Among the prefectures and counties in Yunyang, Shujun Prefecture is the most prosperous. Taizipo is located at the foot of Wudang Mountain, Canglangzhou, only fifty miles away from Wudang Mountain. Both places are prosperous places, and strictly speaking, Junzhou does not belong to the fourth In the corps defense area, if the eldest princess comes to Junzhou to attack Qingjun, Qin Jianxun will not be traced.
This arrangement is of course very good.
Lin Zhenyu was not as reckless as Cui Qi, who opened his mouth to encourage the Fourth Corps to rebel together - it was just a test - his mother was still in the hands of Emperor Guangde, so he had to be more cautious in everything.
"The acting eldest princess, Lu Xiangsheng, thanked the commander-in-chief!"
The general in the tent looked sulky, Qin Jianxun nodded and said, "Then we will escort them to Junzhou and return to Yunyang in three days."
Lin Zhenyu clasped his hands into fists and followed the order.
Only Qin Jianxun and a few battalion officers were left in the tent. The generals were so angry that they gnashed their teeth and did not dare to speak because the commander was in front.
When Ji Xiaobai came back from going to the toilet, he looked around and was surprised. After a while, Lin Zhenyu disappeared and he asked quickly.
Several military generals looked at the coach, and Shu Fujia said in a strange tone: "Officer Lin is too drunk to say goodbye to Lord Ji in person."
As he spoke, he took out a few pieces of precious jade from his arms: "The man surnamed Lin said, offer a pair of white jade to the commander-in-chief, and then offer a pair of jade buckets to express my respect to Lord Ji."
Qin Jianxun looked up outside the tent and murmured to himself: "The tiger father has no sons. When I saw Lin Zhenyu just now, he was awe-inspiring and alive, just like he saw his father Lin Yu. How could I kill him, let alone him?" The soldier said he wanted to rebel, which shows that he is not the emperor's man."
Shu Fujia echoed: "The commander-in-chief is far-sighted and thoughtful. I can't wait."
Qin Jianxun took the jade and placed it next to his seat.
The more Ji Xiaobai watched, the angrier he became. He grabbed the jade bucket and threw it on the ground. He slashed at the jade bucket while stamping his feet and cursing:
"Alas! You warriors are so stupid! Let them be deceived by a few words! Everyone in the world is rebelling, and the man named Lin will not rebel! He lost his father when he was young. His mother Fujiwara Chiyoko taught him to be loyal and patriotic from an early age. It is said that he is still there There are words tattooed on the back, and Chiyoko Fujiwara is now under house arrest in Nanjing by the Liu Kanna gangster! How could Lin Zhenyu rebel! Sooner or later, the Fourth Corps will be taken away by Lin Zhenyu. We will all become prisoners of Emperor Guangde!"
When the soldiers who were ambushing outside the big tent heard the sound of jade breaking, they drew their swords one after another, cut through the curtain, and swarmed in. Seeing familiar faces in the tent, they were all stunned on the spot.
Qin Jianxun dismissed everyone and yelled at Ji Xiaobai: "You said you wanted to kill this person, but I didn't agree. How dare you make your own decision? If you do it again, you won't be spared!"
Ji Xiaobai shook his head and sighed, stood up and walked away.

"Do you really want to stay? Be the commander of the third battalion?"
The war horses stepped on the bluestone road of Yunyang Street, and the horseshoes made a clear clicking sound. Wuzi's concise and powerful question struck Lin Zhenyu's heart like a horse's hoof.
"Why not?" He tightened the reins and slowly looked towards the city gate in the distance. The horse had to slow down and keep pace with the Wu family girl who was not unfamiliar with riding skills.
"Do you want to be like your father, make great achievements, become a general and become a prime minister, and let your story enter the annals of history?" The Wu family girl said, quickly glancing back, Lao Pan followed behind the horse, and the smoke covered him half of the body and face.
"That's a delusion." The Wu family girl sat on her horse, switched to Japanese, and quickly communicated with Lin Zhenyu, "Your father died on the battlefield in the end, and you will follow in his footsteps."
On the way back after the Hongmen Banquet, the girl Maizi, who was pretending to be Lin Yingguan's servant, heard new information from a flag captain of the Fourth Corps.
"I have the latest information," Wuzi's eyes were anxious, panting as she tried hard to keep up with Lin Zhenyu's pace.
Intelligence, open your mouth and shut up is intelligence! This is not a Japanese country! Not always intelligence, intelligence.
Lin Zhenyu was very disgusted with the Japanese behavior, such as calling artillery the collapse of the country, calling tempura the most delicious food, and three sentences of inseparable information.
He looked at the charming Japanese girl on his left with a friendly look, trying hard to suppress the anger in his heart:
"What information?"
"The Fourth Corps just fought a battle with the remnants of She Chongming. There was no winner or loser. Marshal Qin's staff deliberately let the Third Battalion, that is, you, be used as cannon fodder."
"Oh." Lin Zhenyu said nonchalantly: "What kind of intelligence is this? Ji Xiaobai probably said it deliberately so that I would be frightened and escape on my own."
Maiko opened her eyes wide, grasped the reins tightly, and stopped in place: "Why do you think so."

The autumn tiger lingers, and the weather is as hot as being in a steamer.
After leaving Yunyang City Gate, the eldest princess's carriage stopped in front of the moat, and Lin Zhenyu stepped forward to report the situation.
When Liu Yufei heard that she was going to Prince Slope, she was quite surprised and quickly asked whose idea it was.
"The starting point of Taizipo Shinto is the only place that pilgrims must pass when climbing (Wudang Mountain). What is the reason for placing me there?"
Even if imperial prisoners like the eldest princess cannot be exiled to Ninguta Sakhalin Island, they should be imprisoned in remote mountains and old forests that are inaccessible.
"I don't know what will happen next."
Of course Lin Zhenyu knew that in this Yunyang realm, Qin Jianxun and his Fourth Corps were the sky, and several state and county civil servants were, in the final analysis, just decorations.
Liu Yufei's eyes shone with hope, she moved forward and lowered her voice:
"So, the Fourth Corps intends to seduce the emperor?"
Lin Zhenyu was not surprised why the eldest princess came to such a conclusion.
After all, Qin Jianxun did not order the execution or assassination of the eldest princess. Although this operation has certain risks, compared with the huge political gains, it is definitely worth taking a chance.
"I don't know what will happen next."
Liu Yufei continued to ask: "Does Qin Jianxun support the New Deal now? Has he ever mentioned my father to you?"
Lin Zhenyu thought for a while and answered truthfully: "Go back to Your Highness, I don't know what will happen next."
"oh."
The eldest princess said no more.
The convoy rested outside the city for a night, and then headed to Junzhou along the steep mountain road early the next morning.
The entire journey was silent.
At dusk that day, we entered the boundary of Junzhou and soon saw the Wild Goose Lotus Pond, one of the eight scenic spots in Junzhou.
There are lotus leaves in the field, and in the rippling blue pond, the strong lotus leaf cover characters are like the helmets of soldiers, tightly together.
No one was in the mood to enjoy the scenery, everyone was preoccupied.
Lin Zhenyu took off his armor and sat in front of the endless lotus pond.
In the village, we could hear the sounds of smoke and birds, the crowing of chickens and the barking of dogs. A dirty shepherd boy rode a buffalo and saw the Ryukyu soldiers from a distance. He quickly jumped off the field ridge, picked up the cow, and disappeared behind a lotus leaf.
This is Lin Zhenyu's life: his father passed away very early, and he and his mother lived together in Ryukyu Province. After his mother was put under house arrest by the arrogant emperor who did whatever he wanted, he was forced to come to Yunyang, the most dangerous area of the empire.
At first glance, Yunyang looks like a solid fortress, with clouds of soldiers and numerous artillery, making it impregnable. However, it is surrounded by dangers. Qin Jianxun's men want to kill him all the time.
At this moment, Lin Zhenyu understood the path under his feet more and more clearly.
He is heading towards eternal destruction step by step.
Maybe he could sleep with the beautiful Wu family girl in front of him and leave a heir for the Lin family.
Maybe in the end they would be lucky enough to return to Nanjing alive and reunite with their mother. By then, the war would have ended, no one knew how old he was, and the emperor had forgotten him, and even the existence of such a number one figure.
He is like a traveler lying in the torrent of time, placing himself low enough to avoid people's attention.
His emperor, the young and self-righteous tyrant, pushed him into this process just like the war, and he finally stubbornly hoped that he would be like a stone on the ground, preferably a grain of sand, and follow the world. Survive with time, but leave no trace to future generations.
He lives alone in his own time, not an island, but a wisp of wind that no one can catch. He couldn't hear the wheels of history, nor could he hear time, because he was too focused on the dream that was slowly taking root in his heart. Although he finally lay on the beach, after finally experiencing the most primitive sexual feelings in human nature, his heart I still care about his seeds and lotus flowers.
Lin Zhenyu will think of this lotus leaf rising out of the water.
Maybe tomorrow will be their end.
After I left, autumn came soon, and it snowed in winter. They would wither and dry out.
But at this time, I am here, among the vast mountains.
Maybe if I set off at sunrise and run all day, I won't be too late and can save them, them and the other seeds that are dying in the ground.
Although, they don't know that they will never see the light of day again.
