Qin Dynasty Novelist

"Go and follow your brother, lest he cause trouble too."

After a few breaths, she left the girl in purple who was kneeling beside her and waved her hand. Suddenly, the girl narrowed her eyes with a smile and saluted.

Only Zhou Qing was left drinking in the quiet room alone, savoring the flavor of Chu State. Even so, the spiritual sense enveloped the entire wine shop. Although he never went out, everything that happened in the hall fell into his eyes. deep.

"The remnants of the Zhuang clan of Chu State!"

"The Zhuang family? Could it be...the descendants of Zhuang Xin?"

In the hall of the wine shop, sword fights broke out. Hearing their fragmentary words, Zhou Qing raised his eyebrows and murmured that he was called the remnants of the Zhuang clan by the members of the Shadow Tiger Army.

Not everyone is qualified to bear this title. After going through the history of Chu for hundreds of years, Zhou Qing thought about it, and it seems that there is really one who fits. After decades of hunting, until now, there are still remnants of the tribe.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Zhuang family!

Although not as famous as the Ruoqu, Zhao, Jing and other big families, they are also families that have taken root in Dongting County, Xiangshui for nearly two hundred years.

The most famous among them is Zhuang Xin. At that time, King Huai of Chu State was imprisoned to death by Qin State.

During this period, Yin Xiangcheng, the ruler of the state of Chu, was in power arrogantly and arrogantly, which caused the state of Chu to make many mistakes in the policy of the state of Qin. He was squeezed out by the old gentry and left Zhao Guo.

In the Battle of Yan and Ying, the Qin army captured the capital of Ying. King Qingxiang of Chu regretted it and summoned Zhuang Xin from Zhao to Chengyang. , Take back the places in the south of the Yangtze River.

He made great contributions, and was awarded Zhuang Xin by King Qingxiang of Chu to govern Guigui, bestowed the land of Huaibei, and was named Yangling Lord.It's a pity that Chu State was thought to be the place where Qu, Zhao, Jing, Xiang and other families were divided and ruled. Not long after, Zhuang Xin was deposed again, and even the fiefs of the Zhuang family were reduced.

Again and again, it seemed that the internal members of the Zhuang clan were also angered. A few years later, a general of the Zhuang clan, Zhuang Ji, led thousands of soldiers and clansmen to revolt.

He directly led the soldiers disguised as common people to sneak into Yingdu, stormed the government offices, looted and killed the mansions of the old aristocratic families, and surrounded the royal city.The entire Yingdu suddenly fell into chaos, and the ruling and opposition parties of Chu State were greatly shocked.

This so-called Chu State that has been recorded in the annals of various countries-Zhuang Ji Baoying.

Later, under the siege of the gradually gathering kings, Zhuang Ji led his people to withdraw from Yingdu, but then rushed to Jiangdong like a hurricane, and then swept across Southern Chu, occupying the Xiangshui area, Nanyue Wuling, and Dian, so he became the king. , and established itself as a state.

The temples of the Chu Kingdom were deeply terrified, and they sent troops to chase and besiege them several times, because the army could not capture the brave and agile Zhuang Ji army in the high mountains and rivers, lakes and seas.

At this time, in order not to plunder and kill their own fiefdoms, the old gentry of the Chu State spontaneously surrounded and intercepted with private soldiers. It took more than ten years before the Zhuangji riot and its aftermath subsided.

"Han Feizi · Yu Lao" has a cloud: Zhuang Ji is a robber in the territory, but the officials cannot be banned, and this political chaos is also true.

"Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals · Jieli" even discusses the impact of the Zhuang Ji Rebellion on the Chu State as the same as the impact of the Changping War on the Zhao State.

With the help of many old gentry fiefs and private soldiers, the Zhuangji Rebellion was wiped out. Among them, the Xiang clan of the Chu State, who contributed the most, led eight thousand soldiers from Jiangdong under the leadership of Xiang Yan, and forcibly fought in the mountains and forests. Kill Zhuang Ji in the depths.

Dedicated to the king of Chu, it was cited as a great contribution. Because of this battle, Xiang Yan from the Xiang family became a famous general of the Chu state, and his official position reached Zuo Sima, and his popularity was second only to the descendants of the three families of Qu, Zhao, and Jing.

This matter was also recorded in the collection room of Xianyang Palace, but what surprised Zhou Qing was that there were still members of the Zhuang clan who stayed in Chu State for decades, and they were not exterminated.

So, as far as I am concerned, it is good news!

Although the strength of the ten or so silver armored soldiers in the hall is not weak, they are slightly more than the number of people. The remnants of the Zhuang clan with fierce strength are still not enough to look at, but in just a few dozen breaths, all the ten or so silver armored soldiers Beheaded.

The head of the restaurant and the staff hid tremblingly in a corner, and only after the Zhuang clan had gone away did they quickly come out to clean up the mess, carrying out the silver-armored soldiers, and at the same time the staff quickly Inform the officials of Chu State in the area.

"Master Uncle, those strong men are so courageous, they just killed those soldiers of Chu State."

After the business in the hall was over, the two of Xiao Ling also came back directly. Although it looked more lively, but a small group of elite Chu soldiers were beheaded by a group of strangely dressed people here, which is really a bit chaotic.

"It's all internal contradictions in Chu, don't worry about it."

Previously, I thought that so many people appeared beside Yunmeng Lake because of other things, but I didn't expect... No, those elite soldiers of the Shadow Tiger Legion should not have come to look for the remnants of the Zhuang clan.

Otherwise, when they first entered the restaurant, they should have started directly. Now that I think about it, it was luck that they ran into each other, but it was not very lucky that they ended up like this.

Since the two sides had an intersection unintentionally, then what they were doing must be something else. Being able to work for the Shadow Tiger Legion was something unusual. Although curious, it didn't seem to have anything to do with them.

Nodding to Xiaoling, the food and drink on the table was still warm, hurriedly urged one or two, and when the incense stick was halfway, the three of them returned to their respective positions, meditated quietly, practiced profound kung fu, and refined their cultivation.

"Are you from Qin?"

Early the next morning, the three of them woke up, simply prepared the dry food and water bags they needed on the road, and went out, facing another group of elite soldiers. Hundreds of silver armored soldiers.

Looking at the marks on their bodies, they are also members of the Shadow Tiger Legion of the Chu State. They are riding on horses, holding spears and long swords. They are also making preparations in front of the wine shop, and the managers of the wine shop are accompanying them.

Seeing the three of Zhou Qing coming out of it, a young soldier could not help but step forward. According to the information they knew, the three people in front of them spoke the dialect of Qin State, and no surprises, they were from Qin State.

"good."

With Zhou Qing in front and Xiao Ling behind, they looked at the soldier in front of them and nodded slightly.

"Is there a photo sticker?"

Since Lord Shang promulgated body stickers in Qin State a hundred years ago, the six kingdoms of Shandong have also imitated them, promoting body stickers in their own countries to show their identities. The soldier looked at Zhou Qing and the three of them. Not an ordinary Qin person.

It's a bit like a ranger's attire. At such a juncture, it's not good news for someone suspected of being a ranger to appear here. After thinking about it for a while, the spear in his hand stopped gently, and then asked.

"Naturally."

Smiling again at the young soldier, the purple mysterious light shone with one hand, and the number surged, and three rectangular pagoda trees appeared, with the figures and simple information of the three people imprinted on them.

"The picture of your body stickers is quite realistic. People from Jiangzhou, Ba County, Qin State, why are you coming to Chu State at this time? But you need to be a businessman?"

The soldier took the three photo stickers that Zhou Qing handed over, compared them carefully, raised his eyebrows, and took a deep look at the three of them again. Such delicate photo stickers are not something ordinary people can engrave.

Taking a look at the information on the photo sticker, he waved his hand to summon a companion not far away, and continued to ask questions, without any intention of letting him go.
