The brothers who traveled westward in those years

Chapter 836 0144, After Sun Wu ([-])
The six girls were taken aback for a moment, and then the quarrel became louder than before.However, Zhao Zheng didn't give them a chance to continue to attack, so he greeted the patriarch and left.

There are many steep mountain roads in Qi State, and most of these places are inhabited by people.Although they had a hard time, they were contented and happy.All the young people in the mountains have moved out, and those who don't want to leave are the old, weak, sick and disabled.

Passing a mountain road in a carriage, Zhao Zheng almost slipped off the cliff from the carriage.Fortunately, the two coachmen are masters, otherwise it will be over if they are one step later.

The customs and customs of Qi State are well known to Zhao Zheng, and he also needs to know the borders of Qi State.Not only that, but he also had to know all the places where the troops of the Qi State were stationed.

Zhao Zheng would write down what he saw and heard during the day during his break every day, and prepared to organize it into reference materials when he returned to Qin in the future.

It is better to see once than to hear a hundred times, and it is better to practice it yourself than to see it.Zhao Zheng took Li Nishang and Xia Yufang and spent a year getting to know Qi.In addition to learning the glorious history of Qi State, I also learned about many celebrities who have made great achievements in Qi State.

But times not only create heroes, heroes can also create times.Once glorious overlords such as Qi and Wei have become weak people who have to beg for mercy from Qin.The bloody example was before him, which made Zhao Zheng understand the truth of the law of the jungle.

The state of Qin also came through this way in those years, but Zhao Zheng did not personally experience that period of time.So he didn't know how many grievances the old Qin people suffered during that time, and how many old Qin people died in battle.

Old Qin people were never afraid of death, let alone that the enemy outnumbered them.When encountering each other on the battlefield, the side that never retreats will always win.

Even if we are outnumbered, even if we know we are invincible.But the old Qin people never surrendered, and no old Qin person would be a deserter.After more than a hundred years of war and baptism, the old Qin people are no longer what they used to be.The same is true of Qi State today, which has long since lost its former glory.

Zhao Zheng has been traveling around the country of Qi along the pre-planned route, and he will stay in a place for three to five days every time he arrives.Then learn about the local folk customs, and then take a look at the extent to which the local economy has developed.

The 17-year-old Zhao Zheng traveled in Qi State for a year, almost all over Qi State.He has seen many officials' children who bully others, and he has also seen many good young men who act bravely.

Due to travel reasons, Zhao Zheng left Qi on his birthday.However, he still celebrated his birthday in Qi, and he didn't remember that it was his birthday.It was Xia Yufang who made a cake for him, and worked until midnight the night before before finally making the cake.

Originally, he wanted to give Zhao Zheng a surprise, but who knew that Zhao Zheng woke up very early that day, and happened to see Xia Yufang walking into his house with a box.

Of course, Xia Yufang was not the only one who knew about celebrating Zhao Zheng's birthday. Li Nishang, who got the news from Xia Yufang, also prepared a gift for Zhao Zheng.

This was the first time Zhao Zheng received a present on his birthday, and it was made by Li Nishang himself.A pair of brocade pouches embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water are half the size of ordinary brocade pouches, but these brocade pouches look especially good when tied around the waist.

Li Nishang specially helped Zhao Zheng tie the kit around his waist, then took out an identical kit from his bosom, and tied it around his waist quietly.Before giving it away, she had already told Zhao Zheng that if he wanted to give away the pair of kits, he could only give them to sister Xia Yufang.

Zhao Zheng did not expect that Li Nishang would change his mind so quickly.It stands to reason that she is older than Xia Yufang, Xia Yufang should call her sister.And since she called sister Xia Yufang, didn't she acquiesce in Zhao Zheng's previous promise to her?

Zhao Zheng once promised Li Nishang that he would definitely marry her in the future.Once a man speaks out, it is hard to follow, not to mention that he is still the king of a country.

If a monarch with more than [-] people can't even decide who to marry, wouldn't he be worse than a commoner.Although Zhao Zheng had some scruples, he was more confident.He doesn't believe in this evil. If he really wants to marry someone, someone will stop him.

Zhao Zheng left Qi State, and then drove to Chu State, which was once one of the Three Hegemons.Among the nine kingdoms in the Spring and Autumn Period, only the Chu Kingdom is the most powerful, but it is a pity that the Chu Kingdom encountered a mediocre lord.If the state of Chu met a wise king, I am afraid that the territory of the state of Chu would have expanded several times.

At the age of 20, Zhao Zheng ordered someone to send a letter back to Qin, asking Lu Buwei if he could perform the crowning ceremony.Lu Buwei told Zhao Zheng in the letter that the children of ordinary families will hold the crown ceremony when they are 20 years old.He is the lord of the state of Qin, and he is under careful consideration. This matter should be discussed two years later.

Zhao Zheng, who received the reply, was not angry at all, because he had already guessed that this would be the result.

Zhao Zheng, who has reached the age of 20, cannot perform the crown ceremony, and he will not return to Qin if he cannot perform the crown ceremony.He didn't care what kind of moth Lu Buwei came up with, anyway, he wouldn't return to Qin if he wasn't allowed to perform the crowning ceremony.

After staying in Chu State for two years, Zhao Zheng and his party went to Han State again.Zhao Zheng benefited a lot from his one-year stay in the Cold Country, the penultimate stop of his travels around the world.But the cold country is indeed not good, but the bow and crossbow of the cold country are absolutely invincible.Especially the kind of strong crossbow with a range of up to 800 meters. With it, it is just a piece of cake to attack cities and conquer territories.

After Chu State came Han State, and after Han State came Baiyue.

The tribes in the south are collectively called Baiyue, which is similar in nature to the Huns in the north.But they are just the opposite of the Huns, who eat meat and drink in big bowls.The Baiyue people chew and drink slowly, and they rarely eat large animals.

The Huns in the north never taboo, they eat whatever they can get.The Baiyue people in the south are very particular. They eat in various ways, which makes people feel headaches just by looking at them.

After traveling through so many places, there will naturally be many dangers along the way.But after the danger is over, there will probably be surprises, such as seeing thousands of carps jumping over the dragon gate when Baiyue crossed the river.

They stayed in Baiyue for a full year, and Zhao Zheng was already 22 years old when they left Baiyue.

At the age of 22, it has been nine years since he left Qin.

In nine years, Zhao Zheng has never been back to Qin, nor has he met Lu Buwei or Zhao Ji.He didn't want them either, anyway, he already knew how it would end.

Before leaving Baiyue, Zhao Zheng ordered someone to bring the letter to Lu Buwei.After two years, he once again asked Lu Buwei about the crowning ceremony, and this time Lu Buwei agreed very happily.If it weren't for this, Zhao Zheng wouldn't have rushed back to Qin in such a hurry.

This time when he returns to Qin, there are many dangers, so he cannot bring Li Nishang and Xia Yufang with him.Although the two of them were totally unhappy, there was no room for negotiation on this matter.
