Lan Ruochan

Chapter 24

These past events in the silk script are all excerpts written by Qingke himself.

Qing Ke is not good at writing and ink, and the two weeks of ancient prose is not supported by gorgeous rhetoric and thousand-year allusions, so it is extraordinarily simple and unpretentious.

This so-called story is actually the same as a running account, there is no encumbrance, and there are no parallel lines, but Qingyun still reads it very interestingly.

The story of Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin is likely to be heard more or less by later generations, but neither the official history nor the anecdotes have recorded such detailed details, let alone mentioned the undercurrents behind it.

The only thing Qingyun can't understand now is why this old ancestor spends so much pen and ink on the affairs of the Feng family?

Is this Feng family important to the ancestors?why?

Fortunately, this doubt did not last long, and Qing Yun exclaimed:
The story of the ancestors is really wonderful. Whether it is "Heroes" or "Shi Shuo Yu", how can it match it?

If I am worried about my livelihood in the future, I might as well write this as a novel.

When this book is written, it must be copied on silk to show respect for the ancestors.

Ok,
Ink embellishes the latitude and longitude,
Xiangqin Network Room,
Yes, it is called an online novel, and I am the originator!
No, no, the ancestor Qingke is the originator of this mountain.

Sighing over this festival, Qingyun buried his head and bent his neck again, looking for the secret of the beautiful and golden house.

It is said that Qingke and other five people escaped to ascend to heaven, and they will be raised in Feng's mansion for a long time.

Feng Li, Qi Fu and Qing Ke are similar in age and like-minded, so they swore to be brothers.

And Miss Feng's family is also grateful for Qing Ke's kindness in rebuilding, and the two hit it off very much.

It's a pity that fate tricks people, Miss Mi Ji already has a marriage contract, and was chosen by the King of Qin as a noble concubine when she was young, and she will marry when she is twenty.

(The author's case: women marry at twenty, following Zhou etiquette.)
When Qing Ke heard the news, he really fell into a psychological struggle.

He escaped the flood, but he saw that he was involved in a more dangerous emotional vortex. He didn't want the woman in front of him to be involved in this grievance, but it happened that God's will tricks people and there is no way to avoid it.

This Feng family is not only an important minister, but also a relative.

Qing Ke lived in Feng's residence for a period of time on the grounds of recovering from his injuries. Firstly, he could get rid of Qin Wuyang's surveillance, secondly, he could learn some information about the Qin Palace, and thirdly, did An Zhiwei hide some selfishness?

Uncle Li didn't have any precautions against Qing Ke, he only thought that his righteous brother had the idea of ​​becoming an official, so when Qing Ke asked about the official system and military system of Qin State, he didn't have any reservations.

The Feng family served in Qin Dynasty, and Qin Wangzheng is a rare and promising monarch. Uncle Li will naturally reveal his respect and praise for Qin King when explaining.

He took the trouble to explain how the current king of Qin reformed to encourage business and industry, strengthened his military and crossbows, promoted culture and education, and valued talents.

His ambition is not limited to one city and one place, but to eliminate the barriers between countries, establish a prosperous world with unified currency and writing, and free trade and exchange.

No matter Ji Jiang Ying Mi Zi Si Ji Ren, mixing the eight surnames into one family, talking about Huaxia has nothing to do with it.

Then educate the Xirong to irrigate, build beacon towers to consolidate the northern frontier, go out of the East China Sea to town the southern barbarians, drive away the barbarians, and secure the world...

Hearing Feng Li talk a lot, sometimes Qing Ke can't help but think about it.

Compared with King Qin's lofty ambitions, the vision of the Qi and Yan kingdoms is only one city and one place on the border, or the order in which Zhou Tianzi's names are called during sacrifices is really unrealistic.

Considering the people's livelihood in the world, and coordinating the business and industry of various countries, this kind of idea has never appeared in Qing Ke's mind before, and I have never heard of any monarch who has this ambition.

The strategy of leading Qin to attack Yan, although Qi will definitely benefit in the short term, if one of them is vulnerable, it is like a mantis raising its arms to resist the speeding wheels. When the juice is on the ground, will the strong inertia drive Will the wheels keep rolling?
No, it's impossible!Although Qin is strong, it may not be stronger than Qi and Chu.

Although the state of Zhao was almost subjugated, Yu Qing had joined forces with Yan and Wei, and it was not without strength to fight Qin.

Although Qin's wheels were coming fast, what stood in front of them was not mantises, but piles of antlers.

During the time when Qingke acted alone, he also got in touch with Gai Nie.

Gai Nie invited Lv Feige to Xianyang, and then called Qingke and Gao Jianli to discuss secretly.

I don't want Lu Feige to be very dissatisfied with Tian Guang's proposal. He thinks it is unwise for Tangong to use such a large force against Qin.

Then he began to talk about Lu's management of Qin State for several generations, as if Qin State had long been in Lu's pocket.

It was just that some setbacks were encountered later, and Lu Xiang was exiled by King Qin.

Although the Lu family's power has been hit, they just need to wait for a while, and they may not be able to make a comeback.

Now provoking King Qin, it is Tian Guang who is sabotaging their existing plan.

Gai Nie was already a courtier of the Qin State, and probably knew what the Lu family was planning, so he didn't comment on the assassination case.

But Qingke Gao Jianli, because of Tian Guang's death will, was very persistent towards Assassin Qin.

This time, the secret meeting of the four Tangong sons broke up unhappily.

Qing Ke returned to Feng's Mansion and drank to drink away her sorrows for several days. Mi Ji thought that Qing Ke was sad because of her upcoming wedding.

The man in front of her is not only kind to her, but also a hero she admires.

How could she bear to see him sink?
So I just broke my heart and made a decision.

After Qingke's eyes were dazzled, he helped him back to the guest room together, and devoted himself completely to his beloved.

When Qingke woke up, he knew that he had made a big mistake, and felt even more regretful.

What he was worried about was that he knew that he was about to die, so he would definitely disappoint the beauty's affection, and if his deeds were revealed, he would also put the Feng family in doom.

So he left a letter, tactfully warning the Feng family that he was an unknown person and might bring disaster to the Feng family, and hoped that the Feng family could make plans early.

Then he quietly left Feng's mansion, joined Qin Wuyang, and prepared to withdraw from Qin State temporarily, and then submit a letter to enter the country as Yan envoy.

When Ji Ji finds out that Qing Ke has left a letter, she rides alone to the posthouse, where she sees that Qing Ke is about to leave, and she insists on elope with Qing Ke.

Qing Ke knew that doing so would ruin the Feng family, so he flatly refused.

Seeing that Ji Ji left heartbroken, Qing Ke had already made a decision in his heart.

In this assassination, no matter whether he succeeds or fails, it will be very difficult for him to survive, so it would be better to complete the catkin and leave a home for her.

Whether the king of Qin is dead or not, the state of Qin is still there, whether the king of Qin is dead or not, as long as he stabs a knife, the battle between Qin and Yan has begun.

And if King Qin died, even if Mi Ji escaped the burial, she would have a miserable life.

Qingke has made up his mind, and before returning to Qin as Yan envoy, he and Gai Nie meet in Yulin.

Qingke asks Gai Nie to kill himself and become a confidant of the King of Qin. If the King of Qin really becomes a serious problem for Qi in the future, he can do it later.

In addition, Qingke entrusts Gai Nie to take care of Feng's family and Mi Ji when necessary, and if they are implicated by him, he must help them.

Gai Nie was annoyed that Qingke had messed up his position due to personal affairs, glared at him angrily, and scolded him away.

Qing Ke's handwriting is over here.

The next page is obviously written by a different writer:

The Gao family of Qi State was granted the title of Bohai Sea.

From the north of Hejian, thousands of miles of pale yellow, all belong to my domain.

Although there are Yan Kou, Shanrong, Jizi Yiguo, Hui, Mo, Guzhu, Fuyu, Zhuhan and other tribes, they are in the midst of it.

Teach Xuanhua, serve barbarians and assist Qi, Gao's world precepts are also.

After reading this page, Qing Yun probably understood that the rest of the letter should be written by Gao Jianli.

He was eager to know the funeral of his ancestor Qing Ke's assassination of Qin Dynasty, so he skipped some self-narrative paragraphs about Gao's management of Bohai Sea and continued reading.

Sure enough, the story told that a few months later, King Qin got married and married Mi Ji.

The envoy of the State of Yan just came to visit and presented the head of the rebel general, and the picture of Youzhou was a congratulatory gift.

King Qin was overjoyed and brought his new wife to welcome the envoy.

Qin Wuyang couldn't help being shocked when he saw that the wife next to the king of Qin turned out to be the little woman who rode alone into the post station to elope with Qingke more than a month ago.

Qin Wang saw that his expression was different, and he also kept his guard.

When Qing Ketu's dagger appeared, he dodged away vigilantly.In fact, Qing Ke didn't really want to put him to death, but intentionally chased King Qin towards Gai Nie.

Since he repays the heart of using his time with his death, dedicating his merits to Gai Nie is also considered to be a waste of heat.

Gai Nie was still hesitating whether to make a move, but Lu Feige, who was also watching the ceremony, pushed him out, and was right in front of Qing Ke.

Gai Nie didn't have time to think about it, in order to avoid the full disclosure of Tan Palace's secret spies, he had to hand out the long sword, and Bai Hong wept blood.

Unexpectedly, Ji Ji couldn't help but mourn when she saw her lover die in front of her.

When she learned that marrying into the Qin Palace was inevitable, she also had the will to die. At this moment, she had no second thoughts, and threw herself into the sword in Gai Nie's hand, hoping to die.

Rao Gai Nie reacted quickly and threw away the sword edge, but Mi Ji's end still hit the hilt of the sword firmly, her jade face was stained with clouds, and the personnel was unknown.

Once the assassination was launched, naturally none of the envoys of the Yan Kingdom would be spared, but Qin Ji's reaction made King Qin feel even more strange.

When the imperial physician reported that the comatose new wife had a happy pulse, King Qin immediately aroused his murderous heart.

However, Gai Nie had expected that as soon as the imperial doctor left, he asked his younger brother Gai Qi to lie that his wife was seriously ill and needed to go out to take care of her.

Gao Jianli knew that the assassination would fail, and he had already informed the Feng family to make sufficient preparations.

But how fast Qin Jun moved, even though Gai Nie tried his best to stop him like a madman, he was trampled into meat in just a moment.

Feng Chi led Gao Jianli and Mi Ji to flee eastward along the waterway. The maidservant disguised as a young lady was escorted by Feng Li and Qifu as a suspect, and fled to the northwest pass. Old He Bo Feng Yi led Feng Xun, Feng Xiu and a group of people to resist desperately. , Delay the Qin army.

Although the Qin army killed all the Fengyi tribe in the back of the palace, it was delayed for a long time and lost two fleeing teams.

As long as they are on the water, who else in Qin can chase He Bo?

And the Qifu clan originally moved from outside the customs, and it is even more difficult for anyone to be more familiar with the Qinling Mountains.

The two teams fled separately, and the Qin army got nothing.

The king of Qin was so angry that he was furious, and strictly prohibited any historian to record the internal affairs to cover up his ugliness, for fear that future generations would spell out the big green hat that Miji Ji wore for him from between the lines.

When Qingyun saw this, he couldn't help but sigh.

Qin Wangzheng was king for 25 years, emperor for 11 years, and lived fifty days. In that era, he was really not a short-lived king.

But for his concubine, there is no record in the history books, and even the children's files are not complete. Is this the reason?
Speaking of the written language of China, during the three ancient dynasties and the Qin and Han Dynasties, there were major changes in both words and pronunciation.

After the Five Disorders of China, there was a great fusion of northern languages. Although the main body was based on Huaxia, many new pronunciations, new vocabulary, and new expressions were inevitably derived.

Bamboo books, Han Fu and Song and Tang articles are put together, and they are three completely different styles.

So when Qingyun was reading the ancestor's handwriting, it was actually as difficult as we were reading ancient Chinese.

After watching this for a few days, I was really tired.

After reading the story of Assassin Qin, he also wanted to rest his mind and stop reading.

Now that he has free time, he occasionally helps Bin Zhi fight, or studies Gai Kun's sword formulas marked on the back of the silk script, but he doesn't feel bored.

Nine days had passed in the palace, and King Anfeng suddenly called several people to a feast.

This time it was not as ostentatious as last time, but found a secluded private room.

The room is not big, except for Wang Anfeng and his wife, only Qingyun and four people were invited.

After a short greeting, King Anfeng went straight to the topic,
"Gu invited all distinguished guests today, and brought an important news. Today I have returned to Beijing."

Having said this, King Anfeng glanced at the four of them.

Although he was only a child, he showed a princely demeanor in a single glance, making the backs of everyone's necks go numb, as if this one glance could open their skulls and see through everyone's thoughts.

Humans, that's how it can't be avoided.

Boss Qingyun didn't want to be overwhelmed by a doll who was a few years younger than him.

So pretending to be relaxed, he replied with a smile,

"Oh, since King Wei has returned to Beijing. Should we move back to prison?
If this is the case, there is no need for the prince to be in such a difficult situation, I will wait..."

King Anfeng waved his hands again and again and interrupted,
"Mr. misunderstood.

The crown prince sent you to Bi Mansion that day, and asked Xiao Wang to take good care of you.

Based on Gu's understanding of the prince, he definitely has no reason to send you back to prison.Well, it's just..."

Speaking of this, King Anfeng seemed to hesitate to speak, hesitated for a moment, and finally said,
"It's just that the prince seems to have other plans in recent years, and this king doesn't know what to do.

They want to use you to make a fuss, although I haven't seen the clue, but I always feel a little uneasy. "

Speaking of this, the little prince suddenly fixed his eyes on Qing Yundao,
"Brother Qing, can this king borrow your sword to have a look?"

When Qingyun heard this question, he already knew what it meant, so he let out a long sigh.
"Since the prince summoned him, why should he carry a murder weapon with him?

But since the lord asked, he must have wanted to make sure that I had something to do with the case 18 years ago, right?

The prince's guess is not wrong, Qing Yihan is my father. "

Speaking of this festival, Qingyun's eyes glowed brightly, and he raised his head proudly, not shying away from the little prince's surprised gaze at this time.

Seeing Qingyun's straightforward answer, the little prince was a little surprised.

After all, he is just a child, how much opinion can he have?
Seeing that he had already confirmed that he was harboring a prisoner, he couldn't help feeling depressed, resting his chin on one hand, moving his five fingers on the case, obviously he had lost his mind.

"These days are fortunately taken care of by the little prince.

If Qing's identity made the prince embarrassing, the prince could offer Qingyun to the Holy One, and Qingyun had no complaints.

It's just that these few friends of mine are all from innocent backgrounds, and I hope the prince can protect them with righteousness. "

Ji Zhi is much more stable than Qing Yun, and he knows that if the little prince makes a donation at this time, it will still be difficult to get rid of the relationship.

Besides, the prince's intention is not clear, whether this will offend the prince, or fall into the prince's calculations, I think the young prince is not sure, so he persuaded him in a roundabout way,

"The prince has seen brother Qing's saber, so he knows his identity.

Since the crown prince didn't tell the young prince clearly, I don't know if he will use this matter to make some fuss.

I think that if the little prince wants to get rid of his relationship completely, it is better to find a reason to send brother Qing out of the mansion first, and find a proper place to settle down for a while.

The three of us are still in the prince's mansion as a hostage, if the prince has any questions, it is better to have an explanation. "

The little prince sighed sadly, "The crown prince is a very powerful man, his plan will definitely not be so simple.

But I'm afraid this is the best way for now.

Oh, it just so happens that someone invites Zu Ying to give a lecture tomorrow, so Brother Lao Qing pretends to be a servant and sneaks out of the house for the time being.

I will arrange another suitable place for Brother Qing, and wait and see what happens. "

"Will Zu Ying give a lecture?" Junzhi was quite interested in this topic.

"Hehe, Mr. Jing Shuo probably doesn't know how famous your family is in Jiangbei.

Zu Ying is currently speaking scriptures and sacrificial wine in the palace of Gu Wang. When it comes to the study of the Five Classics, even the great Confucians of the Cui family and the Lu family dare not boast that he is better than him.

This little gentleman has long been known as the 'Holy Child'.

Got the Holy Son to sit in the Bi Mansion, so the lonely king lent him a third of the glory. "

Now the one who has really borrowed the Holy Light is actually our Xiaoxia Qing Yunqing.

Zu Ying's guard of honor when she went out to give lectures was really particular. Huang Piao opened the way, holding festivals left and right, with a veil in a Chinese car, and hundreds of entourages, just like a Living Buddha going on a tour.

This Qingyun is in charge of Yima who pulls the cart.

The four ceremonial horses are all tall and mighty, with snow-white fur.

The person who leads the horse must also be in a high crown and gown, with his head held high, which is in line with Shangqing's etiquette.

The convoy traveled all the way south, heading straight for Kaiyangmen.

Kaiyang Gate is the southeast city gate of Luoyang. It is said that during the Western Han Dynasty, a pillar flew from Kaiyang County in Langya, East China Sea and landed here, so it got its name.

This supernatural place has therefore become the Luoyang Shendao Gate.

Only the royal guard of honor and the sages of the three religions are eligible to enter and exit by opening the Yangmen.

Qingyun was stunned that this holy child, Zu Ying, could receive such treatment.

Everyone worshiped the divine pillar, and headed south all the way, and within two miles of going out, there was a large forest of steles.

Qingyun used to study scriptures with Uncle Chen. With a glance, he knew that these steles were engraved with four scriptures and five scriptures, which were written in seal script, tadpole script, and clerical script.

Behind the Forest of Steles of the Five Classics, there are four large steles and two remnants of stones. Qingyun identified them from a distance, and they turned out to be "Dian Lue" edited by King Cao Wei, which was the history of the country at that time.

Dian Lue Juan 89, full of words, engraved on these six steles, one can imagine how tall these steles are.

Therefore, a corner of the forest of steles was blocked at first.

After Zu Ying passed the six huge steles, Qingyun looked at the side of the road slightly, and couldn't help his heart beating wildly. The broken steles here are actually blood-colored!

The bloodstains were mottled, red and ocher, and it was stained by the blood of many people.

The red spots in some places are still very bright, and it seems that this bloody incident is not a long time ago.

Seeing the neatly arranged new monuments behind, Qingyun suddenly understood that these were the "National History" monuments erected by Situ Cuihao back then.

Cui Hao is straight and straightforward, without any shyness, and he can't say enough about the embarrassing things before the rise of the Tuoba clan.

Emperor Taiwu of Wei was furious because of this, punished Cui Hao's nine clans, and washed the ruined stele with blood.

This tragedy was the heaviest punishment ever suffered by an important official of the Three Lords, and the Cui family has also withered since then.

After "National History", the forest of steles has come to an end, and the dragon vein of Luoyang City, the world-famous Luoshui, lies in the direction of the convoy.

It's just that this section of Luoshui doesn't see the magnificence that the river should have.

The pontoon bridge lined up by Xiangfei bamboo stretches for half a mile, covering the river completely.

The chariots and horses go on it, and the chariots really make dust.

Stepping on the round bamboo and the horizontal cable, one after another, it can barely be regarded as Lingbo microsteps.

On the other side of the pontoon bridge, the yellow wall and Zhuwa stretch directly to the sky, and as far as the eye can see, there are temples and pagodas.

At this time in the Southern Dynasties, although there were some Buddhist temples.

Where has Ke Qingyun seen such a large temple?

Seeing that the gate of the temple is fully opened, it is still more than enough for four horse-drawn carts to pass through in the original formation of left and right guards of honor.

It's just that Zu Ying got out of the car first to show her respect for Samana, and followed behind Qingyun.

The first entrance to this temple is quite strange, the person enshrined is not an Arhat Bodhisattva, but a beautiful woman in palace attire.

At the bottom of the steps, Qingyun saw the statue of a beautiful woman stepping on a lotus flower and smiling at Bibo. Presumably this incense is dedicated to the river god of Luoshui here?

Qing Yun did not guess wrong, it's just that the appearance of this Luoshen was shaped according to the face of the recently deceased Civilized Empress Feng.

The Empress Dowager came from the royal family of Beiyan, and she was originally a descendant of the ancient Hebo clan, so not only did the people have no objection to this, but they believed in her spirit even more.

When the guard of honor arrives here, the horses cannot move forward.

Zu Ying brought everyone to kneel down to pay homage to Fengyan, and someone led him in.

However, Qingyun wanted to drive around to the courtyard, the little prince should have arranged for someone to meet him.

Qingyun mumbled while pulling the horse, "I don't know the name of this temple, it's quite a grand occasion."

"This is the Baode Temple, which was built today by the Empress Dowager Wenming in pursuit of blessings.

It took only four years to break ground here, and there are still many temples that have not been completed, and the plaques have not yet been uniformly made. "

Hearing this, Qingyun looked back, only to see a few people walking up after him.

The person who led the conversation had a horse face, sunken eye sockets, and a very burly figure. The goatee's beard didn't look pure black in the sun, and he was probably a barbarian.

The man called his subordinates to take over the chariots and horses, pulled Qingyun over and asked in a low voice, "Your brother is Mr. Qing?"

"Exactly, brother..."

The visitor made a silent gesture and led Qingyun to the other side of the temple, walking side by side while whispering beside him,
"The villain, Yi Yubiao, came here specially to meet the young master. You don't need to say much, just come with me."

Qingyun followed the man around in the huge monastery, and he didn't know how many walks and corridors he went around.

Qingyun groaned in his heart. Looking left and right, it was nothing more than a Buddhist wall and black tiles. Looking up from a high place, it was either a mountain or a pagoda, and the shape was the same. If no one took it with him later, he might not even have the way back. Neither could be found.

Suddenly there was a hissing sound from the depths of the temple. Although the sound was not loud, it was coming from the neighboring courtyard. Qing Yun could only hear his scalp go numb, and even his breathing seemed to be frozen.

That's a real roar!
Although Qingyun grew up on the banks of the Yangtze River and had never really come into contact with ferocious beasts such as ligers and tigers, the roars of these large carnivores are inherently dangerous, and humans do not need to learn to recognize them, and they will naturally feel awe of them.

"This, this is...?"

"""""Knock on the blackboard time"""""

This work makes a new interpretation of the history of Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin.However, this change is still based on the development of the official history, and no changes have been made.

Throughout the story of King Assassin Qin, several issues have been "selectively" ignored by the world.This selectivity is mainly due to the fact that the story itself is too famous, and everyone has read all the details in the lower grade textbooks.When reading this period of history, everyone has not been able to dig deep, and when they are older, fixed ideas have become established, and they don't want to go back and think about it.

First of all, in the story of Qing Ke's assassination of Qin, Tian Guang, the assassin, Qing Ke, Gao Jianli who tried to make up for the knife, and Gai Nie, who was specifically mentioned in "Historical Records" as Jing Ke's visit to Yulin, are all Qi A derived surname of the royal family.

Secondly, it is true that Qing Ke changed his name to Jing Ke and acquired the Chu surname.

Third, why did Qin State kill Fan Yuqi when he was an envoy?Who is this, and why is it so important?No history book or any statement can be very credible to return to this stalk.Some people say that Fan Yuqi is a great general Huanjue, but Huanjuan once defeated Zhao's [-] army alone, and his experience is greater than his achievements.The king of Qin in history did not show the narrow-mindedness of a general who cannot be defeated.The most important thing is that according to the records of "Historical Records", this Huanjuan had already died in battle when he was defeated by Li Mu.So Fan Yuqi's role in Qin State is a mystery, but the fact that he himself guards Dukang and Yannan area cannot be denied.The land of Dukang was not the front line against the Qin Dynasty at that time, no matter how there was Zhao Wangqian in Dai's land to block it.The only one who can feel that Du Kang is in the way is the Qi State.

But once these three doubts are combined, they suddenly form an inevitable result, which is a typical pusher of a big country.

Therefore, Qingke's personal statement in this work is not to put forward a unique heresy, but to remind readers that sometimes there are many "coincidences" that are carefully thought out in the minutiae of history books.

Why did Qing Ke make a special trip to meet Gai Nie before assassinating King Qin?Are they familiar?Aren't those who care about major events afraid of extra problems?Why did he come back in despair after being stared at?

The Feng Yi tribe prospered in Guanzhong, why did the descendants of the Feng family live in Zeyin and Yanbei?And how did Sanfu Feng suddenly disappear from the customs?
All of these are the endorsement made by history for this book Qingke's Handbook.

　Today is the author's birthday, so a new chapter is added.
