I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 4 A Handy Move
In the current era, there is no such thing as an instant travel. Before going out, you must make a lot of preparations. You need to carry all the supplies on the road, and then you need to dispatch force.

Because of the low-key relationship between Zhixuan and Zhao Yang's high-profile reasons, the reputation of Lao Zhi's family is not very good. As one of the old noble families in Jin, how can it be possible that there are few resources and force?

Zhiyao is going to "Luoyi" to seek advice from sages?People in Lao Zhi's family who heard the news were all in agreement, and they couldn't help admiring, or feeling very relieved in their hearts.

Knowledge of any age is the most precious.Ignorance is not terrible. As a direct member of the family, the most worrying thing is pretending to know what you don't know, and you don't want to seek it if you don't know it.

"The Lord wishes to give to Gongsun, twenty rides, one supply of fodder, gold, cloth, servants...all are ready." Zhi Xuwu looked at Zhiyao with a little doting in his eyes.He is Zhiyao's uncle.

There are relatively few vocabulary in the current era, and some titles also have their own particularities. For example, when addressing the head of the family, they only use the word "master".

Lao Zhi's family now has two "masters", one is Zhi Zhi, the master of the Zhi clan, and the other is Zhi Guo, the master of the Xiaozong Fu clan who was born in the Zhiying era.

Are you going out?There is no shortage of food and cloth, and then there is some currency, and the servants must also have it.

Zhibi gave Zhiyao twenty chariots?
Now the calculation of troops is based on chariots. Under the Zhouli system, each chariot will be equipped with 25 soldiers.

If it is organized according to Zhou Li, [-] chariots plus [-] soldiers is a "brigade".

Since Luan Shu became the "Yuan Rong" in the Kingdom of Jin, there have been changes in the military system, and a chariot has become a standard configuration of 75 soldiers.But the countries are still implementing the military establishment of the Zhou Rites.

So, when Zhiyao was about to go far away, Zhixuan, the head of the family, gave twenty chariots. In addition to the chariot master, chariot right and driver of each chariot, there were [-] chariots. Soldier.

Adding the corresponding two hundred male and female servants and three retainers, as well as the fifty children deliberately brought by Zhiyao, the number of people going out reached 810 and three people!
Why did Zhiyao bring fifty children with her, and where did they come from?

These children are selected by Zhiyao from Lao Zhi's family, and they will grow up with them, taught during the growth process, and will be used as the team in the future.

Fifty children are not all, and once Zhiyao feels the need, he will increase anytime and anywhere!

Do you think it is a lot to bring more than 800 people with you when you go out?Honestly, it's a bit much.

However, that is the standard equipment that has never been seen in a more prominent family. In the past, Zhao Wu would bring hundreds of people with him when he went out casually, sometimes three to five thousand, and there were especially many soldiers in the accompanying team.

This is because Zhao Wu experienced misfortune when he was a child, which made him extremely insecure. He was deeply afraid of being harmed, so he must pay attention to the accompanying guards.

Considering the current age, it is unrealistic to wander alone in the wild. Usually, it is to make friends. If you dare to travel in the wild, you must go with more than ten people, and you need to bring weapons.

"'A' twenty, 'disciple' three hundred, and the rest is 'envy'." Taihu was so satisfied that he couldn't be more satisfied, and said in a low voice: "The most expensive family, except for the master and the son, should have the grandson. "

It means: Apart from the head of the family and the next generation of heirs, Zhiyao is the most honored in the old Zhi family.Seeing that Zhibi and Zhishen love Zhiyao so much, Zhiyao will definitely become the master of Zhishi in the future.

Zhiyao just smiled and said nothing, thinking: "Even the Zhao family who is in the limelight, the family's armored soldiers will not exceed five hundred, and the head of the family will bring a hundred soldiers at most when traveling. Grandpa arranged for me all at once. Twenty soldiers, is there danger on the road, or is it not safe in 'Luoyi'?"

What is a soldier?Either wearing heavy armor or multi-layered armor is a soldier, and they must be able to keep up with physical strength and endurance, and have extremely high melee combat capabilities.

According to the standards of the Spring and Autumn Period, a soldier who can run for fifty miles with a load of seventy catties and immediately go into battle is considered a qualified soldier.

If it were 50 years ago, two hundred soldiers in the family would be considered a lot.

At present, the family with the most soldiers is the Wei family, who made them focus on the research of heavy infantry.

On a sunny day, Zhiyao bid farewell to her grandfather, father, and mother and left the mansion. When she came to the street, she would see no pedestrians for a while.

Actually it is.The mansion of Laozhi's family occupies a very large area, and a long wall extends all the way out. The surrounding area is considered to be the territory of Laozhi's family. How could there be others wandering around?
It wasn't until Zhiyao appeared on the main street of "Xintian" that he saw pedestrians.

Because "Xintian" is the city of the monarch, and the people who live in the city for a long time in the current era are those who serve the nobles except for various nobles. In fact, there are no ordinary people in the city.

People walking on the street can tell which family they belong to from the clothes or tattoos on their faces.

Tattooed face is branded on the face, and people with tattooed face are slaves. They may be domestic slaves of a certain family, or they may be plundered by force.

Using money to buy slaves in the Jin State was regarded as an extremely uneconomical behavior, and they were more willing to plunder during national or civil wars if it was not necessary.

When Zhiyao was leaving the "Xintian" city gate, he ran into the Zhao family's team who was going out of the city, but the old Zhi's team seemed relatively large, but Zhao's team seemed to have few people.

"The Zhao family went out of 'Xintian' without a shirt and returned to 'Zhao (City)'." Fu Liao went to inquire after getting Zhiyao's hint.

Knowing about Zhao Wuxie, Zhiyao thought in amazement: "This concubine of the Zhao family was kicked out of 'Xintian'?"

The current eldest son of the Zhao family is Zhao Bolu, but he will be kicked down from the throne by Zhao Wuxie in the future.

Because the concubine class has other relations, and then Zhiyao is the current "Yuanrong", even if the current momentum of Lao Zhi's family is not as good as that of Lao Zhao's, the city gate officials still arrange Zhiyao's team to leave the city first and arrive first. On the contrary, Zhao Wuxie had to wait for Zhiyao's team to leave the city before leaving the city.

Zhiyao deliberately waited outside the city gate, and did not and could not do anything like meet up.

The Spring and Autumn period was extremely harsh on what identity and what to do, no matter what, Zhiyao was also a descendant, so how can there be a reason for a descendant of a big family to take the initiative to meet a concubine of a certain family?

Zhiyao asked Taihu to send some small gifts to Zhao Wuxie, and then went to join the private army of the Zhi family who had been waiting outside the city of "Xintian".

Zhao Wuxie is currently five years old, and because he is a concubine, he has no retainers to follow him.They were actually very surprised when they learned that Zhiyao from the Zhi clan had sent a gift.

"I hope you will keep this situation in mind and repay the kindness in the future." Someone reminded Zhao Wuji.

But Zhao Wuxie, who was only five years old, was very precocious and immediately agreed.

It's also a big family, it's worth it for the concubine to give gifts to the concubines. If there is any other deep meaning, we will see what the parents of both parties think after they find out.

Zhiyao, who took the initiative to form a good relationship with Zhao Wuxie, their huge team has already set off and embarked on the road to "Luoyi".

After knowing what happened at the gate of the city, Zhixuan frowned first, thinking about what impact Zhiyao's actions would have on Lao Zhi's family.

Before Zhixuan could figure it out, a retainer came to tell Zhiyao that it was Zhao Yang who had sent Zhiyao a gift in return.

"This..." Zhixuan really didn't expect Zhao Yang to have such a big reaction to such a small matter.

After all, Zhao Wuxie is just a concubine of the Zhao family, and there are not too many younger generations of the same status in the Zhao family.

It is too common for juniors to give gifts to each other, and under normal circumstances, it doesn't make adults think too much.

This time Zhao Yang's reaction is so big, can it be seen that the Zhao family is fighting for the Zhi family?

"Did Yao do it unintentionally, or did it on purpose?" Zhi Li was not so sure, and thought again: "Zhao Yang showed his favor to me, what do Zhong Xingyin and Shi Jishe think?"

Zhi Zhi knew very well that the old Zhi's family was unstable because of his personality relationship, and several other high-ranking families also underestimated the old Zhi's family.

Clarity turns to clarity, but Zhixuan has no good way to change it. He can only hope for the next generation. What's more terrible is that Zhishen's character is also very weak.

Then, Zhixuan needs Zhishen to carefully observe and make a good choice on the issue of which of his grandchildren will be the head of the Zhi family.

Zhiyao and Zhao Wuxie met by chance.

And Zhiyao's gift to Zhao Wuxie was a temporary idea.

The Zhao family was in the limelight for a while, and the Han family and the Zhao family formed an iron alliance for four or fifty years. The union of these two families alone is enough to cause headaches for other families in Jin, let alone a Wei who took the initiative to come over. Shi?
"As long as Zhao Yang knows my behavior at the city gate, he will definitely think it was my grandfather's gesture; because of Zhao Yang's response, my grandfather will know that the Zhao family is showing kindness. In this case, the Zhao family will be more inclined to win over the Zhi family. Zhishi will not be immediately targeted."

Zhiyao has worked hard for Lao Zhi's family, but who makes the Zhao family at this stage really too strong!
Their team left "Xintian" and headed south, and entered the Han family's fief after crossing Chuanjiao.

In advance, some retainers of the Zhi family went to inform the local nobles of the Han family.This is also to avoid unnecessary troubles. Even if you don't enter the Han family's city when you pass by, you still have to inform them in advance.

After passing Han's fief, they entered Fan's fief again, and they also had to notify in advance.

After nearly two months, Zhiyao's team can be regarded as entering the "Wang Ye".

This "Wang Ye" cannot be regarded as an official place name. Generally speaking, it is the territory directly under Zhou Tianzi.

Because Zhiyao's current identity is not obvious, if he is the heir of the Zhi family, he also needs to notify the Zhou royal family in advance of his arrival. The Zhou royal family will send people to greet him according to the relationship between the "Qing" of Jin and the princes.

The team under the banner of the Zhi family entered Wang Ye, which immediately attracted the attention of quite a few forces. Zhou Tianzi's Gongqing Guodan, Shan Gonggang sent someone to ask.

"Gongsun Yao of the Zhi family went to 'Luoyi' to visit the sages."

"So that's how it is. The governor of Central Lu is also here, and I heard that he and Shi Boyang have been talking day and night for four days."

what! ?

Isn’t the current governor of the capital of Lu State Kong Qiu?It turns out that he also came to "Luoyi" to visit Lao Tzu!

When Zhiyao heard the news from her retainers, she immediately felt that she had come to "Luoyi" at the right time.
