"I heard you are leaving?"
"right."
"Then, are you also within the range of leaving?"
"right."
"Then will you come back again?"
"have no idea."
"I'm just a little warlock. Young Master Si has been very kind to me. Now that Young Master is in need, I have to return."
"Then what do we do?"
"There is a hosta here. If I can successfully break through and become a Taoist priest within five years, I will find a way to come back. If I haven't come back after five years..."
…
For many people, the Wei family is far away on the other side of the mountain. After parting now, it will be difficult to see each other again.
Today's farewell is an eternal farewell.
The people at the bottom were immersed in the mood of farewell and full of sadness, but the monks at the top did not feel that Jin was far away.
As long as the Taoist priests are careful, go to big cities and safe places, and don't seek death, they can still safely travel from Wei's territory to Yancheng.
As for the Taoist priest, it is safer and can even go back and forth very quickly.
Therefore, this parting mood is only filled among the lower-level people. What the upper-level people think is that I want to go to the Wei family with the young master to show off my talents.
Maybe this is because human beings' joys and sorrows are not connected.
Gongzi Si is about to leave, and the fifty-year history of Hanoi County's prosperity may change from today on.
In the past, the monarch of Hanoi County was the son of Prince Si, the son of the willing era. The county magistrate of Hanoi County is Li Kui, a first-class politician in the world, and the county captain of Hanoi County is Pang Juan, a reasonably qualified general.
Today, the monarch of Hanoi County is Gongzi Si's eldest son, Gongzi Ji, and the county magistrate of Hanoi County is Ximen Bao, a wise minister. It's not that Ximen Bao is not good, but compared with Li Kui, he is not on the same level, and the captain of Hanoi County has become Le Yang. Yueyang is actually quite qualified, but compared to Pang Juan, he is not far behind.
The most important thing is that this guy is not a nepotistic man, he is a nepotistic guy, and he is a guy who values his family background.
However, at present, Gongziji's biological father, Gongzisi, is still alive, so Gongziji will definitely keep a low profile and not be so obvious. Ximen Bao and Le Yang were both assistant ministers left by Gongzisi, so Gongziji would not let himself go so quickly.
But what is certain is that the lives of the remaining seven million people in Hanoi County will definitely not be as comfortable as before. Next, Hanoi County may also lose everything in the wars in the Qinglian Fantasy World. The powerful Hanoi County left behind by Gongzi Si will soon be reduced to a second-rate commodity.
Even more than forty counties will be lost one by one.
This is all to be expected.
However, this is all a matter of Hanoi County and has nothing to do with Xiang's sonship.
Today, Gongziji came to find fault with Gongzi. Looking at Gongziji who finally arrived, Zhang's wife couldn't help but sigh silently.
"Sir, I came here today to say goodbye to you."
Young Master Fei nodded silently, as he had expected this day.
Unlike Li Si, Gongziji had a behemoth like the Xiang family behind him.
The Xiang family was a feudal lord of Chu State, and one of the more powerful lords among them.
The current head of the Xiang family, Xiang Yan, is a first-generation monarch and is still very powerful.
Xiang Yan's eldest son is Xiang Yu's father and the next generation head of the Xiang family. However, his strength is not very good. Now he is only a minister, not the first generation monarch.
But Xiang Yan's other legitimate son, Xiang Liang, was also a first-generation monarch. However, he is a good younger brother and has no intention of seizing the inheritance rights of the Xiang family. Therefore, Xiang Yu, the young master, is worthy of his name.
But everyone knows that if Xiang Yan passes away in the future, Xiang Liang will definitely be in charge of the Xiang family. When Xiang Liang passes away, he will be the prince.
Otherwise, Xiang Liangda can leave the Xiang family and open a branch or a small sect by himself.
With Xiang Liang's strength, no matter which country he goes to, he will be welcomed by the princes, and then he will follow the same old routine of marrying a legitimate daughter of the princes and becoming the king.
Today, the Xiang family has produced the first generation of monarchs for two consecutive generations. They were originally the feudal lords of Chu State, and now their territory has expanded to more than a hundred counties.
The princes are also divided into two states. One is when the first generation monarch is still alive. At that time, the territory of the prince is generally relatively large.
One is that the first-generation monarch dies. Without the first-generation monarch, it will not be able to maintain such a large territory, and will silently hand over part of the territory to the monarch, and the monarch will provide protection to the feudal monarch. Such a feudal monarch often only has a fiefdom of ten or twenty counties or even less.
But no matter what, the feudal lord cannot be allowed to lose all his fiefdoms. This is also an unspoken rule.
Nowadays, the Xiang family has produced two first-generation monarchs in succession, and now even if it expands its territory to more than 200 counties, the Marquis of Chu will only pretend not to see it. But Xiang Yan felt that that would be too exaggerated and hated by others. If one day in the future, the Xiang family would be without the first monarch, they would be counterattacked by the surrounding nobles, and they would die miserably.
As the future head of the Xiang family, Gongzi Ji would not be able to go to South Korea with Gong Zifei.
"Now the State of Wu is about to attack the State of Chu. Although the State of Wu is overestimating its capabilities, it cannot be underestimated."
"Grandpa wrote to say that there is an atmosphere of pride in Chu State now, and he doesn't like this atmosphere very much."
"My uncle wrote a letter saying that the war is about to start, and he wants me to go back and accumulate some merits and gain some fame. My uncle said that although I was famous in the past, it was all false. Now I need to establish some real merits to prove myself. .”
"And I also feel that I need to participate in this battle."
"So, I came here today to say goodbye to you, Master."
There is no never-ending feast
Gongziji is also leaving.
Young Master Fei smiled slightly: "Okay, when will we leave? I'll treat you to a drink then, which can be considered a formal farewell."
Young Master Ji laughed: "I want good wine! I want good wine!"
"Okay, how about drinking Yancheng's special, top-quality monkey wine?"
"Is what you bought this time real or fake? Don't buy fakes? Most of the products circulating in the black market are fake!"
"Okay, this time I'll go to the special store to buy it and pay more!"
"Well, the ones in the special store are indeed genuine. Each bottle has a mark on it, but the price is too expensive. However, before I leave, I have to kill you, right?"
At this point, the young master has not left yet, and there are some things he wants to say that he finds difficult to say.
Zhang's ovary immediately said: "We have been friends for so many years. If you have any questions, just say it."
"Well, you also know that over the years, my grandfather and uncle have sent many people to our Hexi County to learn various techniques and Taoism. Now, my grandfather and uncle want to withdraw some of them, and then send some new people to continue learning... …”
"No problem, any more?"
"Huh? Oh! No, no, that's it."
"Then get ready to drink!"
"Okay, let's drink. This time we won't get drunk until we get home!"
…
The Chu State's envoy in Yancheng was neither a fool nor a deaf ear. Especially after Fu Chai openly asked all countries for money to attack Chu, the envoy became aware of Fu Chai's hateful thoughts: There are not a few countries in the world that resent Chu State, but they dare to directly attack Chu State. Not many countries sent troops to Chu.
Fu Chai had made up his mind to pay back the money with the blood of Wu people.
Those princes did resent the Chu State in their hearts, and they did not dare to send troops to the Chu State alone in the past, but they still had the courage to privately ask businessmen to spend money to buy Wu State bonds.
Moreover, Fu Chai made it very clear this time: Wu State did not expect to destroy Chu State by itself. Every time it captured a land, it quickly transferred people, minerals, and materials, making it clear that it would fight Chu State to the death.
At this time, everyone had a little money to support the husband, so they spent money to buy a thug.
Many vassal states do not have much military strength, but they have a lot of money saved by their ancestors. A large amount of gold, heavenly materials, earthly treasures, and spiritual roots can all be paid back. In Yancheng today, as long as you have goods and the quality of your goods is good enough, there will be no shortage of buyers.
As a result, Yancheng's trading market prospered again.
In ordinary places, large-scale shipments will quickly drive down the price of goods, but Yancheng is different. There is a bond exchange here, and the wealth of many places in the world is gathered here, and there is a lot of money.
There are the largest number of Taoists in the world. The more Taoists there are, the more skilled they become in elixir refining and weapon refining.
In many industries, it is true that one genius can outperform one hundred, one thousand ordinary people. But even a genius needs to stand on the foundation laid by his predecessors to be effective.
Nowadays, in Yancheng, there are more and more Qi practitioners gathered in industries such as alchemy and weapon refining. Through mutual exchanges, the treasures at the two levels of magic tools and magic weapons have become the best in the world.
Even in the three major palaces of Luoyang, Qufu and Donghai, if we simply compare the magical artifacts and treasures at the level of magic weapons, the same price and quality are not as good as Yancheng, and the same quality and price must be more expensive than Yancheng.
Suddenly, a large amount of natural treasures, ferocious beast corpses, and demon king corpses appeared on the market. The other party also specified that they only wanted money and unnamed bills. This clearly meant that they wanted to buy Wu's war bonds.
The envoy from the Chu State roughly calculated the shipment volume of heavenly materials, earthly treasures, ferocious beast corpses and demon king corpses on the market in the past ten days. It was obviously much higher than in the past, so he sent a second letter to the rear, emphasizing that own discovery.
This envoy was born in the Qu family and was also a minister. He was considered a serious member of the upper class of Chu State.
In Chu State, whether you can be an official or a high official depends first on your background.
If you are born in the Qu family, then as long as you have enough talent, there are basically no unwritten rules to restrict you, and there is no ceiling blocking your head, preventing you from going further.
The Qu family, the Jing family, and the Zhao family, these three major families were all the sons of the king of Chu a long time ago. After generations of development, they were just branch families. The relationship between the three major families and the Xiong family is the branch family and the main family, and they are regarded as public families.
The Qu family, the Jing family, the Zhao family and the Xiong family are closely related. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are a family. Therefore, as long as people from these three major families are talented, it is easy for them to become officials.
The envoy's name was Boyong, and he was also a nobleman who loved Chu.
Therefore, this second time, in addition to sending a message to his superiors, he also used personal connections to explain the situation to his uncle, the head of the family.
Qu Boyong didn't know it. In fact, the senior leaders of the Chu State knew about it as early as after he first sent the message. For this reason, the contemporary Chu Hou was furious. This matter is a long story.
Chu Hou's father, the previous generation Chu Hou, had a posthumous nickname of Ping, so he should be called Ping Hou.
This Pinghou was not a human being, but a demon of lust. He fell in love with his son's first wife, a fiancée from Qin. Therefore, Tang Minghuang was not the first in this regard.
After taking a fancy to it, he just grabbed it by force. However, this son is not just any son. He is the original prince of Chu State and the future heir. He has a team and a team of his own.
The prince's tutor was Wu Zixu's biological father.
Pinghou acted first and cut off the prince's wings in advance, and arrested Wu Zixu's father. He also asked the envoy to arrest Wu Zixu and Wu Zixu's eldest brother. He also asked the envoy to say to the two sons: If you don't come, you will Kill your own father.
After the messenger went, Wu Zixu said that it was a trap. If he went, he would die together and it would be useless.
But the eldest brother said that it would not be appropriate if neither of them went. Then the eldest brother decided to go by himself, and before leaving, he told Wu Zixu to take revenge.
In the end, his eldest brother and his father died. Wu Zixu escaped from Chu with the help of the nobles and helped the prince to get into trouble and seek revenge. However, he failed and the prince died. In the end, Wu Zixu had no choice but to run to Helu.
The current Chu Hou is the son of Ping Hou and that noble girl from the Qin Kingdom. It may be that both families have extraordinary bloodlines, so the Marquis of Chu rose to prominence at a young age, and later became the first monarch, and thus the heir, and later became the Marquis of Chu today.
This matter involves the fact that Marquis Ping robbed his son's wife and gave birth to a child with his daughter-in-law. This child inherited the title of Marquis of Chu. This matter is really messy. Although the nobles are shameless in private, on the surface You still have to be an individual.
Frankly speaking, it is true that nobles have done worse things in private, but everyone is experienced and can clean up their hands. As long as the news does not spread, I will still be the upright and sunny noble.
Due to Wu Zixu's escape, and because some princes in the country disliked the Chu lords, this matter has spread wildly throughout the Chu country in the past few days, and there is even a theory: the reason for today's war against Chu , all because the fatuous Marquis Ping coveted his daughter-in-law and killed Wu Zixu’s whole family. Now they are here to take revenge.
As soon as this incident came out, Chuhou's reputation instantly became stinky. It was so stinky!
Regarding this matter, Chu Hou was also speechless. But what could he say?
cannot!
His position was inherited. How could any biological son say that his biological father was wrong about this or that?
Doing so will shake the foundation of rule!
Therefore, regarding the rumors among the people, Chu Hou could only scold those damn nobles in private, and dared to spread any news!
