Daqin: Who does this throne give to me?

Chapter 17 The Three Surnames in Chu
"Do you know this jade pendant?" Zhao Wen's tone was filled with surprise. He really didn't have any suitable items on him except this jade pendant when he was away from home.

And Lu Pheasant was definitely worthy of giving such a treasure, so he gave it without hesitation.

Zhao Wen even thought that after Lu Zhi became his own woman, he would explain the preciousness of this treasure to her, and Lu Zhi, who would definitely be moved by that time, would be completely devoted to him, but he did not expect that the woman in front of him would actually know him.

But since the other party knew each other, it would be even better, gently holding Lu Zhi's hands, Zhao Wen said with a smile on his face: "From seeing you, I know that you are the woman who will spend my life with me, so I will Giving you this priceless treasure is to let you know how much I love you!"

Looking at the jade pendant in his hand, and then at Zhao Wen in front of him, Lu Zhi felt that his mind had started to boil.

The prince of the Great Qin Empire is still the most hopeful prince to ascend to the throne, but he is willing to give him a national treasure that represents his identity as a betrothal gift. That woman in the world can resist such a temptation.

At this moment, she only felt that she was willing to do anything for the man in front of her.

Looking at the determination in Lu Zhi's eyes when he looked at him in front of him, Zhao Wen was absolutely sure that this woman would be his own in the future.

Immediately stepped forward, picked up Lu Zhi and walked towards the bed.

Early in the morning of the second day, a refreshed Zhao Wen took Lu Zhi out of the room. Liu Bang, Xiao He, Fan Kui, Zhou Bo and Hei Yi were already waiting at the door.

These people came here last night, Fan Kuai brought Zhou Bo, and Lu Zhi recommended Xiao He, and they stood on one side with two literary and two martial arts.

"set off!"

There is a time limit for taking office after receiving the imperial decree. Qin Law is extremely strict.

It was already a waste of time to detour to Peixian County by myself, and I had to bring Lu Zhi on the way. Time was already extremely tight, so Zhao Wen naturally had to hurry up.

Qindu Zhongshu Lingfu!

"Teacher, save me!" As soon as he entered the door, Hu Hai threw himself forward with a sad face, knelt down in front of Zhao Gao and burst into tears.

Since Zhao Wen proposed to merge counties with prefectures and counties, and to divide remote and wild lands, many jobless nobles and idle royal families have been sealed out these days.

But today, the teacher sent a message that he was sealed in the land of Chu, which shocked Hu Hai immediately.

As a prince, how could he not want to sit on the throne.

No matter what you want to do, you have to stay in the capital of Qin to have a chance, and now if you go to Chu and seal it, it means that you have nothing to do with the throne.

After all, Zhao Wen's fief is a county, and he is only a city. The gap between the two parties is simply worlds apart.

From this alone, one can know the status of the two of them in Father Huang's heart.

Hearing such news, how could Hu Hai not be surprised.

There was a gloomy and cold look in Zhao Gao's eyes, he bent down to help Hu Hai who was hugging his leg, and said coldly: "Your Majesty's will, who in the world dares to disobey!"

"You can go ahead and seal it with confidence. As long as my teacher is not dead, I will definitely let you come back!"

Looking at Hu Hai, Zhao Gao's face is full of kindness, this is a disciple he has cultivated with great difficulty.

Coming out of Zhao Gao's mansion with a disappointed face, Hu Hai's face was full of disappointment. He never thought that the twenty princes who were originally insignificant would suddenly become so outstanding.

All along, he thought that his biggest opponent for the throne was his elder brother Fusu, but now, it was this younger brother who suddenly appeared.

Thinking that except for the elder brother, all the princes were sealed in the wild frontier, even himself, the prince whom his father loved the most, was no exception, Hu Hai's heart was full of murderous intent and anger.

A group of nobles and royal families were confiscated to the frontier, and each family would take a large number of people with them when they left, making the originally prosperous Qindu look a little desolate.

Thinking of what Master said, Hu Hai glanced in the direction of the palace from a distance, and strode towards his own mansion.

He swore that he would definitely be back!

At the gate of Shouchun City, the avenue where people come and go has been tightly sealed, and the nobles who are rarely seen in the city are all standing solemnly ten miles outside the city gate, watching quietly. forward.

"coming!"

Seeing a flag from a distance, the leader whispered something to himself, and everyone's expressions immediately changed.

"Jiujiang Taishou Qu Ling pays homage to His Highness the Twenty Princes!"

Amidst the sound of greetings, the carriage stopped slowly, Zhao Wen stepped out of the carriage lightly, stepped forward with a smile on his face, and helped the eunuch Qu Ling standing in the front.

Now he has not taken over Jiujiang, he is just a prince, but the prince is absolutely not allowed to receive the gift of the minister, how can he not know this.

"Prefect Qu is too polite!"

Zhao Wen looked at the middle-aged man in his fifties, with a somewhat flattering but also somewhat apprehensive look on his face. Thinking of the other party's surname, his smile couldn't help but become even brighter.

The three most powerful families in Chu State are Qu, Jing and Zhao!

Although Chu has three surnames, the deceased Qin Bichu also mentioned these three families. In the sound of meeting just now, I heard the most from these three surnames.

From this point alone, we can know that the entire Chu land has probably been completely covered by these three surnames long ago.

He secretly sighed in his heart that Yingzheng was too merciful. After the reunification, he didn't kill the original nobles and officials, and let these people still occupy high positions. It must be his own trouble in the future.

But now, there are only five people I can trust. If I want to take over Jiujiang, I must rely on these three surnames.

"This way, Your Highness, please!" Qu Yi bowed down to lead Zhao Wen very courteously.

Now is the time when all the princes and nobles are confiscated. All the nobles and princes only seal one city, and there are even a few families that seal one city. Many of them directly point to a place for themselves to build.

But the fiefdom of the prince in front of him is a county, and it is still a big county like Jiujiang. How can Qu Ling, a surrendered minister, care about the significance of it.

Not to mention that he had already heard that officials would not be able to serve as local officials in the future. Now that the [-]th prince has taken over Jiujiang, he might be assigned to other places in a short time.

God knows when we will see each other next time, if you don't flatter now, there will be no chance to flatter you in the future.

All the way to the palace of Chu State, looking at the huge palace complex in front of him, even the current Qin Palace is far inferior to it.

As for Shouchun City, in terms of size and population, it is by no means inferior to Qin Capital.

Thinking that such a place has now become his fiefdom, Zhao Wen also looks relaxed.

And Lu Zhi tightly held Zhao Wen's arm to hide his nervousness.

"How many sergeants are there in the city now?"

Glancing at the orderly sergeants standing in front of the palace gate, Zhao Wen suddenly turned around and asked.

"There are [-] soldiers in the city!" A burly man stepped forward and saluted.
