Qin Gong

Chapter 378

Gao Nu City.

At the foot of the mountains, there are small mounds covered with grass, and there are new or old wooden signs in front of the mounds.

At a glance, such a small mound is endless.

In spring and summer, everything comes back to life, and the mountains are accompanied by the breeze, blowing to the endless green plains.

The sound of horseshoes sounded, and when the sound returned to calm, a figure leading a horse suddenly walked in front of these mounds.

"one Year!"

Bai Yan led the horse, looking at the endless mounds of dirt in front of him, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.

Each of these mounds in front of him is a soldier who swore to follow him to the death, a living person with a family.

A year ago, in this place, the Yuezhi and Huns in the north were repelled in that battle, but the countless soldiers in front of them stayed here forever.

"You are here, Bai Yan is here!"

Bai Yan let go of the rope leading the horse, came to a mound of dirt, squatted down, and looked at the wooden cup in front of him, which obviously hadn't been changed for a long time.

It has a name engraved on it.

Qu Township, Qu Chang!The title was made, and he was an iron cavalry officer. He died in the battle of Gao Nu.

The same is true in front of all the wooden monuments behind, with the names of the soldiers who died in battle.

"General!"

Kou Zhuang led a famous iron cavalry officer and stood behind Bai Yan, looking at the scene in front of him, Kou Zhuang also couldn't help his eyes turning red.

For a year, Kou Zhuang also clearly remembered this battle.

In this battle, the Bai family cavalry had no reinforcements.

Only one iron cavalry of the Bai family alone resisted the Yue family and the Huns, and resisted these two armies with no fewer than 10 horses!
at the moment.

Looking at the soldiers who died a year ago, there are no tall weeds growing on the graves, Kou Zhuang knew that it must be the people of Gaonu City who came to worship and weed these soldiers.

Looking at those brand new wooden monuments, they should have been replaced by the people of Gaonu City.

"Bring the wine!"

Bai Yan stood up, turned to look at Kou Zhuang with slightly red eyes.

Previously in Yanmen, he escorted Jing Ke and his party all the way out of Yanmen. After entering Shangjun, Bai Yan gave up riding and rode towards Gaonu ahead of time.

After leaving Gaonu City, there was a war that lasted for more than half a year, and then he had to deal with the chain of events in Yanmen and escort Yingzheng.

For a year, Bai Yan never had the opportunity to come to Shangjun to worship.

Passing through Shangjun now.

It is naturally impossible for Bai Yan to forget the thousands of cavalry soldiers buried here.

Hirano.

Under Bai Yan's leadership, half of the iron cavalry officers and soldiers were carrying small porcelain bowls, and the remaining half followed Bai Yan, holding a large jug of wine, and slowly pouring wine into the small bowls in front of the grave.

After pouring out a pot, he turned around and went to the carriage to pick up another pot.

There are more than 4000 graves and more than 4000 tombs, but whether it is Bai Yan, Gui, Kou Zhuang, or even other soldiers, no one feels impatient.

Because every soldier who died in battle was a person who was born and died together.

After half an hour.

Just as Bai Yan was leading the soldiers to pour wine, in the direction of Gaonu City, at some time, a large group of figures suddenly came.

In an instant, all the cavalry officers and Bai Yan stopped and stood there looking.

After a while.

As those figures approached, Bai Yan and the soldiers could clearly see that they were all the people of Gaonu City, including men, women and children.

"General?"

Gui stared blankly at the common people, then looked at Bai Yan in a daze.

Because Gui could clearly see that those common people carried more or less grain and other things in their hands.

Bai Yan was also a little puzzled at the moment, not understanding why those people came here.

"General White!"

After a while, elderly people came to Bai Yan's side in groups and bowed to Bai Yan.

Seeing this, Bai Yan quickly bowed his hands in return.

"Old gentlemen, this is?"

Bai Yan was a little puzzled.

Fortunately, at this moment, Bai Yan saw a few men wearing the official clothes of the Qin State, riding over in a hurry beside the crowd of common people coming behind him.

"General, we all heard that the general came to Gaonu City, so we came here specially!"

"That's right, General Bai. If it wasn't for General Bai back then, there would still be us people! Now that General Bai is here, I hope that the people of Gaonu City can accommodate us and express our gratitude to General Bai."

A few gray-haired old men said to Bai Yan.

talking room.

Several old men were about to kneel down and kowtow to Bai Yan.

This action really startled Bai Yan, and he quickly reached out to help him.

"No!"

Bai Yan looked aside, motioning for his cronies to come and help.

This is not an ordinary compilation ceremony, Bai Yan cannot afford this kind of grace ceremony at the moment.

However, Bai Yan and his cronies helped the old man up, but behind the old man, countless people were kneeling on the ground, and everything was like this. At a glance, they were all the people of Gaonu City kneeling on the ground.

Bai Yan looked at this scene with a look of astonishment.

Shocked.

Even Bai Yan felt the shock from the bottom of his heart at this moment, he clearly felt the gratitude in the hearts of the people of Gaonu City.

At this moment, Bai Yan's eyes were extremely red.

"Old man, please let the people rise up!"

Bai Yan said to several elders, then turned around, and slowly saluted all the people.

Perhaps it was because the elders in the lead also sensed that the general Bai in front of him was not used to this, so they turned their heads and asked the people behind to stand up.

While these old men were talking, Bai Yan also noticed that all the soldiers not far away, even Kou Zhuang and Yu, were all given to them by the people who got up.

All the soldiers were frightened by the enthusiasm of the Gaonu people, no matter how much they refused, they couldn't refuse.

There are many things, although they are not expensive, but this kind of experience is the first for everyone.

At this time, Bai Yan also found that some men enthusiastically wanted to help pour wine,

see.

Bai Yan turned his head and saluted the old man again.

"Old man, please stop those men as soon as possible. Bai Yan understands your thoughts, and Bai Yan is even more grateful for your usual actions. But this time, it is Bai Yan and the soldiers who came to sacrifice. This wine needs to be prepared by Bai Yan and the soldiers. Let's pour it ourselves!"

Bai Yan explained softly.

There are too many people at the moment, Bai Yan knows that if he speaks by himself, those people will think it is a polite excuse, so Bai Yan still needs to explain clearly through the few old men in front of him, and then let these old men stop those people.

Only in this way, those people will believe it!
Compared with the things sent by the people of Gaonu, they are not very valuable. It is better to find a way to return them to the people in another way later, and one yard is worth one yard. Right now, it is he and the soldiers who are worshiping. It must also be poured by him and the soldiers.

"Okay! This old man understands what the general means!"

"General, be at ease!"

When several old men heard Bai Yan's words, they looked at each other and nodded quickly.

Thinking of the fact that General Bai in front of him is busy with affairs now, and it took a year for him to come here to pay homage, several old men can understand Bai Yan's heart.

"I'm going to explain it to them!"

An old man took the initiative to say, and after Bai Yan thanked him gratefully, he turned and left.

Just when the old man put on the clothes and was within a few steps away, at this time Gaonu City Guard and the City Captain came jogging to Bai Yan out of breath.

"Gaonu City Guard Uncle Ximen, meet General Bai!"

"Chengwei Kuichuang, pay my respects to General Bai!"

Uncle Ximen is about 28 and nine years old, and Kai Chuang looks similar. Right now, the two of them are wearing official uniforms, dressed roughly, saluting to Bai Yanji.

Even though the two of them are not affiliated with Yanmen County, both of them dare not neglect Bai Yan in front of him.

Not to mention Shangjun Junwei Hu Jin, who is the life-and-death friend of the Bai family and Bai Yu, even the Bai Yan in front of him has a close relationship with the county captain Hu Jin, let alone the county governor Feng Quji, who is married to the Bai family.

So even if they were given ten guts, they didn't dare to do anything wrong in front of Bai Yan.

and also.

This is Gao Nu City!

When they arrived on horseback just now, they opened their eyes and saw with their own eyes all the Gaonu people bowing down to them.

This scene really shocked the two of them, and they had never seen such a shocking scene.

At this moment, both of them still remember the scene just now. At a glance, countless Gaonu people knelt and kowtowed to Bai Yan in front of the grave. With such popularity, they felt that if they dared to treat Bai Yan, what would they do? Without Bai Yan's actions, the people of Gaonu City probably wouldn't let them go.

Even if the two of them are city guards and city lieutenants.

on the plain.

Bai Yan looked at Uncle Ximen and Kui Chuang, and slowly assembled the ceremony.

"Bai Yan, I've met you two!"

After Bai Yan finished his salute, he got up and looked at the people around him.

"Is it an arrangement between the two of you this time?"

After Bai Yan finished speaking, he looked straight at Uncle Ximen and Kui Chuang.

He did meet many people from Gaonu City along the way, but if the people are willing to come, it's okay, maybe it was arranged by Uncle Ximen and Kui Chuang.

If it is really an arrangement, then there is no need. Previously, the cemeteries of these thousands of soldiers were all weeded by the people of Gaonu City, and the wooden monuments were replaced. Now he just happened to pass by and came here to worship, there is no need at all. Reinvigorate the teachers and mobilize the masses, and tire the people.

"General Bai, it wasn't arranged by the two of us!"

"Yes, the two of us only learned of the general's arrival later! It was the common people who heard that the general was coming, so they all came to the benefactor's tomb!"

Uncle Ximen and Kui Chuang cupped their hands and said.

Now listening to Bai Yan's words and seeing Bai Yan's eyes, Uncle Ximen and Kai Chuang couldn't laugh or cry in their hearts.

Regarding Bai Yan's arrival, neither of them knew anything about it.

It was because of the change of the people in the city that the two of them found out after investigation that it was Yanmen County Wei Baiyan who came to Gaonu City to pay homage to the fallen iron cavalry soldiers.

Hirano.

Seeing that Bai Yan was worried that Cheng Shou had ordered them to come, several old men showed wrinkled faces and smiled.

Now in Gaonu, the common people all know that the people buried in these graves are all the saviors of their Gaonu people, and the biggest benefactor among them is General Bai.

So why did the city guard ask them to come and talk.

"It's not good, but Bai Yan thinks more, and I hope you two Haihan!"

Bai Yan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that it was not Uncle Ximen's order, and apologized to Uncle Ximen.

Don't look at a trivial matter, but now Bai Yan has many political enemies, and there are many people who want Bai Yan to die. Bai Yan can accept those people targeting him, but he doesn't want those conspiracies to involve Gao Nu.

The soldiers here have been buried here.

Ning Duo asked, nothing more!
"General Bai is worried about the common people, it's the common people's good fortune, how could he be offended!"

Uncle Ximen hastily cupped his hands in return, not daring to really care about Bai Yan's question.

Kui Chuang on the side also followed suit.

Accompanied by Uncle Ximen and Kui Chuang, Bai Yan finally found out that after he led the iron cavalry soldiers to leave, the people of Gaonu City called this nameless land under the mountain range the benefactor's tomb.

Every family of the people in Gaonu City has set a rule that the descendants of the people in Gaonu City, regardless of men, women, old or young, must pass it on orally from generation to generation, telling future generations where these thousands of cemeteries come from, and the soldiers buried here , Their deeds during their lifetime!
Xianyang, Qin State.

When Bai Yan escorted Jing Ke to Xianyang, outside Xianyang city, Lu Sheng was also riding a carriage back to Xianyang city gate.

"stop!"

Inside the carriage, Lu Sheng felt the shaking of the carriage. Seeing from the small window on the side of the carriage that he was about to arrive at the city gate, he hurriedly asked the groom to stop.

The groom driving the carriage and several followers looked puzzled, not understanding why Lu Sheng suddenly stopped in front of the city gate of Xianyang.

Just then.

Lu Sheng lifted the curtain slightly.

"Order one person to go to the restaurant in the city and ask for some news! The other person goes to the Lu Mansion and tells father that I have returned to Xianyang!"

Lu Sheng instructed softly, and then put down the curtain of the car.

Seeing this, the accompanying servants hurriedly let the two of them walk towards the city gate first.

After half an hour.

A servant just came back and told Lu Sheng that no officials had gone to the restaurant to investigate.

Until this time, Lu Sheng in the carriage finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's fine if nothing happens!

Lu Sheng recalled that two months ago, he suddenly learned that his good friends Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe were all collaborating with rebels with the intention of murdering the King of Qin.

When I heard the news, I was almost scared to pee my pants.

Lu Sheng's first reaction was that his good friends Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe were framed. After all, in Lu Sheng's eyes, both Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe were servants of the Qin Kingdom, with status, background, status and future. How could an individual betray Qin.

It wasn't until later that I learned that it was confessed by the rebels.

Lu Sheng had to believe it.

And by spending a lot of contacts and money to clear up the relationship, Lu Sheng also inquired about it. Hearing what the rebel said, even other people were surprised at first. He didn't expect Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe to be so easy to win over, and Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe only had one request. .

That means Bai Yan must die!
No matter what, they hoped that they could kill Bai Yan in Zhongmou City through those who plotted to assassinate Ying Zheng.

Lu Sheng still can't figure this out, why Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe insist on Bai Yan's life when they are so good, they obviously have no grievances and no enmity, why bother to let the good servants do nothing, and join forces with those heinous rebels , Kill Bai Yan.

Something must have happened!
Lu Sheng had always guessed in his heart that something must have happened to make Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe intend to kill Bai Yan, so they would rather act as internal agents for the rebels.

After all, the two of them were still drinking together the night before they left Xianyang. At that time, he couldn't see any hatred Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe had towards Bai Yan.

But right now, both Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe have been executed, and there are doubts in his heart, and Lu Sheng also understands that it is impossible to know in his whole life.

Right now, as long as he is not implicated, it is a serious crime to assassinate Ying Zheng after all.

"Enter the city, return home!"

After Lu Sheng stabilized his nervous mood, he ordered the groom to continue on his way.

More than half an hour later.

In the Lu Mansion in Xianyang City, Lu Sheng finally returned home, but as soon as he returned to the mansion, he saw a servant rushing over.

"Young shopkeeper, the news from Yanmen was sent by Gentleman Gan!"

The servant came to Lu Sheng and said.

When Lu Sheng heard the servant's words, he looked at the servant with a puzzled face, Gan Si?
Lu Sheng is very clear about Gan Si's going to Yanmen. After all, Gan Si belongs to him, but what Lu Sheng doesn't understand right now is why Gan Si asked someone to send him a message as soon as she arrived in Yanmen, and why she still dragged Lu strange people.

thought here.

Lu Sheng frowned slightly, feeling a little worried in his heart.

Now Lu Qi is more and more powerful, with countless wealth and extensive contacts.

In contrast to him.

After the death of Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe, his contacts were greatly damaged. Before that, many relationships were made through Jiang Jing. Once Jiang Jing died, those relationships would be difficult to maintain. Now Gan Si is one of the few people he has the most high hopes for.

Otherwise, he would not have spent money in Xianyang before, and begged his father to help him to help Na Gansi move around.

Now Gan Si is sending letters through Lu Qi's people, which makes Lu Sheng a little worried, fearing that Gan Si, who grew up together since childhood, will completely fall for Lu Qi.

Thinking that Zhengtang's father might still be waiting for him, Lu Sheng was equally curious why Gan Si would send news through Lu Qi's people, and he was still so anxious, accompanied by a trace of worry in his heart.

"Okay, I'll go now!"

In the end, Lu Qi still decided to read Gan Si's letter first.

After all, it doesn't take much time, and it won't be too late to see my father after reading it!
　Shi ①Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe Bai Yan didn't know about it, let alone Bai Yan used means to kill them. The two of them were indeed drawn in by the rebels, because after knowing that Yan was Bai Yan, they were worried that Bai Yan would retaliate, so He couldn't wait, and wanted to use the hands of the rebels to kill Bai Yan. The whole matter between Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe was borrowed from the allusions of the Jin Kingdom in the Spring and Autumn Period.
