Qin Gong

Chapter 192 Is He Bai Yan?That boy is Bai Yan?
Xianyang Palace.

As the power center of the Qin State, the place where the civil and military officials in charge of all affairs of the Qin State gather, and it is also the place where people all over the world talk about it.

With the drizzle falling, the sky was just getting brighter. One after another, official carriages stopped at the gate of the palace. Men in official uniforms of the Qin State stepped out of their respective carriages, and the number of them was increasing.

No matter how wide the territory of Qin State is, one can get a glimpse of one or two from the number of these officials.

"Master Li!"

"General Wang!!"

"General Li!"

There was a loud noise, and when a civil and military official saw other officials and colleagues, they all smiled and saluted.

Although this scene is harmonious, in fact, like other vassal states, the civil and military officials of Qin State agreed on the matter of going east, and they often argued endlessly on other matters large and small.

After all, among the hundreds of officials of Qin State, there are also factions, and the vast majority of these officials are members of the gentry. Whether they are voluntary or not, they will be involved in some conflicts of interest in daily life.

Fortunately, the successive rulers of the Qin State were wise, as well as the laws of Qin, which allowed the officials of the Qin State to fight for far less places than other vassal states.

This is why compared with other vassal states, Qin's officials are more restrained and can have this scene.

Palace gate.

Because of the drizzle, a number of servants or subordinates held umbrellas for their respective ministers.

Speaking of umbrellas, some rumors say that the first person to make them was Lu Ban, and some even said that it was Lu Ban's wife, Yun Shi. But no matter who it is, umbrellas have become a symbol of nobles and dignitaries.

Because no matter whether it is made of the first cowhide or the current silk, it is not affordable for ordinary people.

In today's world, people still wear coir raincoats when they want to go out in the rain.

Although the coir raincoat is not as valuable as an umbrella, it is very convenient, just like the elite soldiers of the Qin State who are holding long spears around the gate of the palace at this moment are also wearing coir raincoats.

Just as a famous official is waiting to go to court.

Not far away, a non-official carriage appeared in a row of carriages, and many peripheral officials noticed this scene.

After all, this is the gate of Xianyang Palace, why did that carriage come here?
When he was wondering, as the ordinary carriage stopped slowly, a young man in Qin armor got off the carriage with bamboo slips in his hand.

Seeing this scene, many people were a little surprised.

A young man dressed in Qin armor came to the gate of the palace in a carriage, holding bamboo slips in his hand, what is the trouble?
Orderly?not like?But if it was an official, why would he be wearing armor?

With doubts, one of the officials looked at each other.

"You know that person?"

"never seen it!"

Accompanied by whispering voices, many officials saw that the carriage was slowly leaving, only the young man in Qin armor was standing in the drizzle.

Seeing this, these officials became very puzzled.

Seeing this, several Qin soldiers in the distance were also a little puzzled. After looking at each other, the leading general was wearing a coir raincoat and holding a Qin sword, walking towards the boy.

The officials who were talking about just now were watching this scene, and the palace gate suddenly opened slowly.

When these officials saw this, they all knew that they were going to court in the palace.

"Please!"

"Please!!"

A number of officials bowed and saluted each other, and then walked towards the palace in groups.

The officials in other places didn't notice anything at first, but as the officials moved, more and more officials also noticed the boy standing in the drizzle at this time.

Being able to become an official of the Qin State, and put on this official uniform of the Qin State, and come to the court in this palace, the knowledge, ability and connections of each official are far beyond the reach of others.

But the strange thing is that almost all the officials didn't recognize the boy when they saw him.

but after a few breaths

Among a group of officials in their [-]s and [-]s, there was a middle-aged man wearing an official uniform and a mountain crown on his head. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the boy was full of surprises, and then stopped.

see this scene.

The two officials in their [-]s and [-]s who were accompanying them all stood still.

"Master Yao knows that person?"

Li Si, who has a good relationship with Yao Jia, was the first to ask.

The burly man is Yao Jia.

"know!"

Yao Jia smiled at Li Si, and then seeing Wang Wan looking at him suspiciously, Yao Jia smiled even more: "Yao Jia was sent to Xinzheng before, and he was escorted by that young man!"

Just after Yao Jia finished speaking, Li Si and Wang Wan were all surprised.

"Bai Yan?"

"Is he Bai Yan?"

Li Si and the others instinctively said, because they all knew that it was Bai Yan who escorted Yao Jia to Xinzheng.

Thinking of this, Li Si and others turned their heads to look at the young man in the distance.

Thinking about the past six months, from the rise of fame to the repeated military exploits, the previous battle of Gaonu was even more amazing. They have always been curious about how brave and unparalleled the Bai family boy named Bai Yan is.

But right now, looking at the thin boy standing in the drizzle in the distance.

This really surprised Li Si, Wang Wan and the others secretly in their hearts, and it was obviously different from what they had imagined.

"What? He is Bai Yan?"

"Is he Bai Yan?"

"The boy in Qin Jia is Bai Yan?"

Around Li Si, a number of officials heard what Li Si and the others said, and they all looked at the young man in surprise. He had heard the name countless times during this period and caused the entire court to argue endlessly.

Among the officials, two young and burly men in official uniforms immediately stopped and looked at each other after learning that the young man was Bai Yan.

"Is he Bai Yan?"

The one who spoke was Li Xin, and the other was Qiang Li, both of whom were generals of the younger generation of Qin in the court of Qin.

As among all the young generals in the Qin Kingdom, the two with the highest status, background, reputation, and ability, the one who is most unconvinced during this time is that Bai Yan, a disciple of the Bai family.

Even when they didn't know Meng Tian at the beginning, they didn't pay much attention when they heard people talking about Meng Tian.

Only this sudden appearance of Bai Yan made the two of them feel oppressed in their hearts when talking about his deeds.

Yangcheng ascended first, beheaded five doctors in the first battle, and twenty-one of the enemy died.

Leading the iron cavalry to the north, Fuxi Mountain beheaded more than [-] Han soldiers, beheaded the general Han Qiu, and went north to capture four cities.

With Xincheng's words, he directly saw through Han Junshen's plan.

The battle of Gaonu not only predicted that the Xiongnu and the Yuezhi would go south, but also ordered the people to migrate, and led more than [-] cavalry to face the Yuezhi and the Huns with [-] horses, fighting to the death without retreating.

Among them was Bai Yan's fire, which completely burned a Gaonu city and tens of thousands of Yuezhi.

Anyone who heard this incident would be in a daze, sincerely curious about what that Bai Yan looked like, how capable he was, and how decisive and vicious he was in leading the army and planning.

"I can't see it at all!"

Qiang Lu frowned, not only Li Xin, but also him, standing here at this moment, looking at the thin young man holding a bamboo slip in the distance.

This is completely different from the fierce and decisive Bai Yan in his imagination.

"Bai Yan?"

Li Xin looked at the young man in the distance with doubts in his eyes.

In fact, not only Li Xin, but the surrounding officials, especially some generals in official uniforms, were also full of doubts.

Because everyone looked at the young man, and they couldn't see that the young man could beheaded a total of twenty-two people including the five doctors after ascending first.

But Yao Jia has passed.

That boy is Bai Yan's business, and it can't be fake.

Besides, counting the time, Bai Yan did return to Xianyang within a few days.

With doubts, one of the officials took one last look at the young man, turned his head and continued into the palace.

"Bai Yan?"

Outside the palace, the general who was holding a Qin sword, heard the words of the civil and military officials behind him, and then looked at the young man in front full of doubts.

He is Bai Yan!
The leader of the Gaonu cavalry in Shangjun.

Thinking of this, the general holding the Qin sword didn't question him any more, especially when he saw that Shangqing Yao Jia was already approaching the young man.

"Bai Yan, I have met Master Yao!"

Bai Yan looked at Yao Jia who was approaching, and cupped his hands to salute.

After the farewell in the past, Bai Yan didn't expect to meet here so soon. He originally thought that he would meet only after entering the court.

"General Bai, long time no see!"

Yao Jia came to Bai Yan with a smile on his face, and then bowed his hands in return.

Yao Jia is naturally no stranger to Bai Yan. Back then, the young man not only escorted him to Xinzheng, but even when he was in Xincheng, he witnessed the young man guessing Shen Armada's plan word by word, and wiped out South Korea's last life in one fell swoop.

That's why, when the bamboo slips sent by Shangjun Yang Xian arrived at the palace, Yao Jia felt that things might not be as simple as Yang Xian said.

Especially after two days, when Yang Xian's bamboo slips came again, when he learned that Bai Yan directly ordered the Gaonu people to move south, Yao Jia felt a little worried when he thought about what happened in Xincheng back then.

But then.

Not to mention other people, even Yao Jia himself is not sure.

Even if I have seen the young man's keenness on the battlefield, even if he has some doubts.

Never thought.

The result really surprised everyone.

"Yao Jia congratulates General Bai for another great achievement!"

Yao Jia looked at Bai Yan, folded his hands and said with a smile.

Bai Yan hurriedly cupped his hands in return.

"Master Yao is ridiculous!"

Bai Yan said modestly, at this moment, Bai Yan suddenly saw three officials walking up slowly.

Looking at those three officials, he had never seen any of them before, Bai Yan was a little confused, but all three of them were wearing alpine crowns, and the patterns on their official uniforms were different from those of other officials.

Bai Yan guessed and knew that these two officials were high-status ministers. Although he didn't know what their positions were, the only thing he was sure of was that both of them were high-ranking ministers.

Two lords!

When Bai Yan thought about it, he was still a top five doctor, not even a general.

Not to mention apprehensive, but also very puzzled, because he couldn't figure out why two officials came over. You must know that the officials who accompanied Yao Jia just now were also Shangqing, but they were just looking around and had no intention of coming over.

In the eyes of the common people, a five-time doctor is superior, and in the eyes of ordinary Qin officials, he is also superior.

But compared with Shangqing, the gap is incomparably large, even saying that it is out of reach is not an exaggeration.

There are also three classes of Qing, the lowest rank is equal to the lowest general, and the lowest generals are the left and right ministers.

And the fifth doctor and Zuo Shuzhang seem to be only one rank apart, but there is a world of difference in this rank.

One is a doctor and the other is a general.

The top five senior officials had [-] hectares of land and [-] hectares of houses each, while Zuo Shuchang, who was one of the highest lords, had [-] hectares of land and [-] hectares of houses each.

From the nine hectares of the Dafujue to the twenty-five hectares of the five doctors, there are five titles in between.

There is only one title difference between the five doctors and Zuo Shuzhang, but with this title, the gap is so big that it is unimaginable.

And Shangqing is equivalent to the general among the generals.

So right now Bai Yan is still a fifth doctor, a noble duke.

And those two are Shangqing!
"Hehe~!"

When Yao Jia saw the young Bai Yan, he suddenly became cautious, and when he saw the two officials, he suddenly couldn't help laughing.

Especially looking at Bai Yan, Yao Jia shook his head and introduced him to Bai Yan with kindness.

"General Bai, this is Shangqing Hu Quan, Lord Hu. This is Shangqing Mao Jiao, Lord Mao."

Yao Jia introduced Bai Yan one by one.

"Master Yao!"

"Master Yao!!"

After Yao Jia finished speaking, Hu Quan, who was in his sixties, and Mao Jiao, who was in his fifties, bowed their hands and saluted Yao Jia. This gesture was also a gesture of goodwill.

Because Yao Jia took the initiative to introduce the two of them, no matter whether it was greetings or other things, the two of them naturally returned the salute.

Under the huge embroidered cuff of Yao Jiana's official uniform, he clasped his hands in return.

And because of Yao Jia's introduction, Bai Yan, who was a little puzzled from the beginning, immediately knew that one of the two senior ministers in front of him had a slight relationship with him, and could even be said to be a backer.

Hu Jin's biological father, Shangqing Hu Quan!
In the past, when Yang Xian wrote to Xianyang, General Hu Jin also wrote to his biological father, Hu Quan.

At this time, Bai Yan finally understood why Yao Jia laughed at him just now.

"Bai Yan, pay homage to Lord Hu and Lord Mao!"

After waiting for Yao Jia to return the salute, Bai Yan stretched out his hand to salute Hu Quan and Mao Jiao, looking at the elderly Hu Quan, Bai Yan's eyes were full of gratitude.

Although he was not in Xianyang, Bai Yan could know that half a month ago, it was the old man in front of him who spoke for him in the palace of Xianyang.

As for Shangqing Mao Jiao, in today's Qin State, almost everyone knows it, and everyone knows it.

After the Lai Ai incident, the Queen Mother Zhao was imprisoned, and [-] officials were executed for admonishing. Mao Jiao was the [-] officials who admonished. It was also because of Mao Jiao that Qin Wang Yingzheng took back the Queen Mother Zhao.

Therefore, even if we dare not say that Mao Jiao is as upright as Lord Meng Yu, this Lord Mao must be a bold and careful person.

The most important thing is that Shangqing Maojiao is also a member of Qi.

"The future is terrifying!"

Seeing Bai Yan, Mao Jiao simply bowed his hands in return, and then laughed.

Elderly Hu Quan beside him looked at the young Bai Yan with a friendly smile in his eyes.

"The Bai family has produced another remarkable son, that old fellow Bai Zhong is really enviable."

Hu Quan turned to Mao Jiao and said, then looked at Bai Yan, and at the drizzle: "Why don't you bring an umbrella?"

Bai Yan bowed his head when he heard the old man Hu Quan's words.

"It's not a problem! It's just a little rain. Bai Yan is wearing the Qin Armor of the bloody battle. If I hold an umbrella, it will make other people laugh at me."

In fact, the Bao family has always prepared an umbrella, but it was the first time he came to the palace, Bai Yan had no experience at all, especially when he was wearing Qin Jia, he also felt that it was not appropriate to hold an umbrella.

After all, it is different from wearing an official uniform. This Qin Jia is a product of bloody battles. Just holding up an umbrella in this light rain, if others see it, it will inevitably be spread as a joke by interested people.

Not to mention, it may also spread to the palace.

"Hahahaha! Good!"

Hearing Bai Yan's words, Hu Quan laughed loudly on his wrinkled face, and kept stroking his long beard.

Even Yao Jia and Mao Jiao couldn't help laughing and shaking their heads when they heard Bai Yan's words and looked at their young appearance.

In a word, he was born as a Qin general who was unruly and frivolous.

It's no wonder that Old General Teng and even Lord Meng Yu praised him well. Not to mention them, even if it was heard by the king, the king probably felt comfortable hearing it.

Civil servants remonstrate to death, soldiers fight to the death, these words will not be rejected by any monarch.

"Okay, since you are wearing this Qin armor, the old man will not give you an umbrella! The old man enters the palace, and when the king meets, he will definitely summon you in."

Hu Quan smiled at Bai Yan.

Looking at the young Bai Yan, Hu Quan couldn't help but sigh with emotion, this time, this young man will wait outside the palace gate.

Maybe next time, there is no need to stand alone outside the palace gate in the rain like this.

"Ok!"

Seeing Bai Yan cupping his hands, Hu Quan nodded, then turned to Yao Jia and Mao Jiao: "Master Yao, Lord Mao, please!"

"Please!"

Accompanied by Yao Jia and Mao Jiao's clapping of hands in return, the three of them took a look at Bai Yan before walking towards the palace gate.

Bai Yan stood there with his hands folded, watching the three of them leave.

After a while.

After Hu Quan, Yao Jia, and Mao Jiao entered the palace, Bai Yan just looked away.

Standing outside the palace gate, feeling the drizzle alone, Bai Yan once again felt the benefits of being from a noble family. The Hu family of Qin State, Hu Quan is Shangqing, Hu Quan's eldest son Hu Jin is Shangjun Junwei, and the second son Hu Wujing Geng It was from the Yueyang jailer to the city order.

Although there are only three people in the Hu family who are in power, the connections of these three people are far from being so simple. Not to mention that Bai Yan has never seen it before. It is just that Shangqing Maojiao, who is also from Qi, obviously has a very good relationship with Hu Quan. That's a gentleman.

It is such a family, because he has the surname Bai, so it is also his reliance in the court.

Sigh.

Bai Yan looked at the drizzle falling in front of him, full of emotion.

In the eyes of Lu Qi and Lu Sheng, he is a backer, but in the Qin court, he is far from enough.

The real power, above him, is far from that simple.
