Chapter 21 Chapter 21 Juxian Hall

Fusu, the eldest son of the first emperor of Qin, followed the example of Lord Mengchang in recruiting talented people from all over the world, and established the "Juxian Hall" in Xianyang to contribute to the country and benefit the people. Sanbao saw the notice in the city about the recruitment of sages by the "Juxiantang", and he rushed to tell Xiaochuan excitedly.However, Xiao Chuan said disapprovingly: "Who cares about Fusu, Juxian Hall, family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs, what does it matter to me? Let's go, go drink!" Xiaochuan took Sanbao and Cui Wenzi to the wine again. Soon, Xiaochuan was so drunk that he lay unconscious on the ground.

Just as Xiao Chuan was wandering around the world, a bucket of water suddenly poured on Xiao Chuan again with a "hula", and Xiao Chuan suddenly sobered up, jumped up, and shouted: "Okay, Xiaoyue, come to play tricks on me again! " Xiaochuan took a closer look and found that the person in front of him was not Xiaoyue, but Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu. Xiao Chuan suddenly felt guilty, and said to Xiang Liang: "Master? Why are you here, Xiao Chuan, see Master." After Xiao Chuan finished speaking, he hurriedly bowed and bowed, but due to drinking too much, his body fell down unconsciously. Fortunately, Xiang Yu held him up.

Seeing that Xiao Chuan, who was in high spirits at the time, has now become a full-fledged alcoholic, Xiang Liang couldn't help feeling angry, and reprimanded Xiao Chuan: "How can a young and promising boy become so decadent and degenerate! If I had known this, I would have You shouldn't be let out of the teacher's school. Now, you go with us!" Xiang Yu carried Xiaochuan away, and Sanbao saw that someone had kidnapped his master, and wanted to stop him, but Xiang Yu turned his head and glared at Sanbao, and Sanbao froze there in fright, watching the two take Xiaochuan away, He hurriedly went to call Cui Wenzi, but before he called, Cui Wenzi had already stood up.Cui Wenzi looked a little bit drunk now, and the expression on his face looked more refined than a monkey.

Sanbao said anxiously: "Mr. Cui, they took Mr. away!" Cui Wenzi had a smirk on his face, and said: "Very good! I haven't watched the show for a long time, let's go, let's join in the fun!" Xiao Chuan was carried by Xiang Yu to the door of Juxian Hall, only to see that Juxian Hall is a rather spectacular house, the gate is magnificently built, as high as Zhang Xu. The sign of "Juxian Hall" was covered with red flowers and hung high above the door. There were many tables in the yard, and many people were already seated.The table is divided into left and right by the aisle in the middle, which is clearly separated.A master of ceremonies sits in the middle and registers the heroes who come to sign up.

Uncle and nephew Xiang Yu carried Xiao Chuan to the emcee and gave his name. The emcee asked about the history, and Xiang Liang proudly mentioned the descendants of Xiang Yan from the state of Chu. The emcee immediately showed respect and asked them to sit at the table on the left. The tables and chairs on the left are still free, and the tables and chairs on the right are already full. Xiang Yu asked what was the difference between left and right, and the master of ceremonies explained that heroes are also divided into three, six, or nine grades. The nobles of the six countries, celebrities and famous families are the upper class, and the reckless heroes and commoner heads are the lower class.Since ancient times, the left side is the most expensive, so the table on the left is the upper-class seat, and the right is the lower-class seat.

Xiang Liang nodded, and Xiang Yu carried Xiao Chuan to the left. Cui Wenzi in the back was assigned to the right with the three treasures, and he didn't make any excuses, and took the three treasures to find a place to sit down with a smile. However, following Sanbao and Cui Wenzi was actually Nougat Liu Bang.Liu Bang originally returned to Pei County after sending off the corvee. Lu Gong and Lu Zhi asked Liu Bang about Lu Su's whereabouts. In order to cut off Lu Zhi's thoughts on Xiao Chuan, Liu Bang lied to them that Lu Su was already with Xiao Chuan. They got married in Xianyang City and lived and worked in peace and contentment ever since.When Lu Zhi heard that Xiaochuan married Lu Su, she felt sad and jealous, but she was still unwilling to accept her fate like this. After thinking about it, she tempted Liu Bang to marry Lu Su, and forced Liu Bang to bring Lu Gong and her to Xianyang, wanting to see it for herself. Take a look at Xiao Chuan and Lu Su living together.

After arriving in Xianyang City, Lu Zhi forced Liu Bang to seek fame on the grounds that he had no official position. Liu Bang had no choice but to come to the Juxian Hall.Liu Bang looked at the layout on the left and right, and then walked to the left with no one else, and was immediately stopped by the master of ceremonies, who asked him about his official background. Liu Bang proudly reported that he was the head of the pavilion, and he was in charge of ten miles. After speaking, he wanted to go to the left again, but the master of ceremonies dragged him back and threw him to the right.

The heroes on both sides laughed when they saw it, and laughed at Liu Bang, but Liu Bang didn't mind, and walked to the right.Everyone chased him away, unwilling to let him sit down. Liu Bang looked around cheekily, and suddenly saw Xiao Chuan. Liu Bang yelled Xiao Chuan's name, walked quickly to Xiao Chuan, and sat down without hesitation: "Xiao Chuan, I finally found you!" Xiao Chuan was already very surprised when he saw Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang, but now he was even more surprised when he saw Liu Bang, when Xiao Chuan was about to answer, the master of ceremonies walked over angrily and said to Liu Bang, "Why are you such a rascal, if you don't leave, I will Let the servants throw you out!"

Liu Bang was a rascal to the end. He put his arms around Xiao Chuan and said, "This man is my sworn brother. He can sit here, why can't I?" Hearing this, the master of ceremonies, Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang were all shocked, and Xiang Liang asked in surprise: "Xiao Chuan, this guy is your sworn brother? Xiao Chuan said helplessly: "It is true!" "Look, I'm not lying, I want to go, let's go together!" The master of ceremonies said helplessly: "For Mr. Xiang's sake, I will let you go." After the master of ceremonies left, Liu Bang became even more fearless. He said to Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang: "Liu Bang, the pavilion chief in Xiasurabaya, who are the two from Xiaochuan, why don't we get closer?"

Xiang Liang said disdainfully: "I don't think this is necessary, Xiang has always been a clean person." "Oh, we hit it off so well, and I also like to keep myself clean." Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew looked at each other, and they all felt that Liu Bang's face was thicker than the city wall, so they moved out together, not wanting to pay attention to Liu Bang.Ever since Xiao Chuan learned that Liu Bang framed him, he was unhappy, but now that Liu Bang lost his face in front of everyone, he was even more angry. I just heard Liu Bang say: "Xiao Chuan, you really didn't break your promise, you returned to Xianyang alive, why didn't you tell me."

Xiao Chuan thought to himself, you are ashamed to say that you are the one who harmed me, and immediately said angrily: "I don't want to talk about the past, I just want to ask my elder brother why I was sent to repair the Great Wall in the first place. " "Didn't I tell you?" "But some insiders are different from what Big Brother said." Hearing what Xiao Chuan said, Liu Bang was really guilty, but he still said with certainty: "I will tell you the truth, two of our team of corvees ran away, and the whole team was guilty of being beheaded. We met The day happened to be the last day of the deadline, but you were drunk again. The officials saw you sleeping in my room, and they used you to make up for it without asking any questions. I tried to force them to release you with death, but the other side also The lives of that team of brothers. In the end, I really had no choice but to acquiesce in tears." After listening to Liu Bang's words, Xiao Chuan believed it, but he was not sure: "I will find out about this matter gradually. But why are you here today?" "Oh, that sister-in-law of yours didn't force it!" "sister in law?" "It's Mrs. Lu's eldest lady! She wants me to get married as soon as I get fame, so she spared no effort to accompany me to Xianyang." When Xiao Chuan heard this, he was startled and said in a panic, "You mean that all the young and old of the Lu family have come to Xianyang?" While the two were talking, there was a drumbeat, and everyone stood up one after another with the drumbeat, only to see a noble-dressed young man with an imposing appearance walking onto the stage.Someone in the audience whispered, "This is Young Master Fusu!" Fusu bowed his hands to everyone with a calm expression, and said: "Heroes, thank you for coming to the Juxian Hall today. Fusu is polite here! Fusu is not good at empty words, so he just opened the door and clarified the righteousness. This Juxian Hall meeting is In order to recruit talents from all corners of the country, seek strategies for the country, and benefit the people. There are many talents from the past six countries here. A few words here cannot resolve past grievances and grievances. Fusu is willing to be honest with you one by one in the future. Eliminate barriers. I hope that everyone can show their talents regardless of the past, and the country will also disregard the past and grant considerable positions because of it. May everyone think of the people of the world together." As soon as Fu Su finished speaking, applause erupted from the audience, and everyone nodded frequently at Fu Su's words.Xiang Liang was even more appreciative of Fusu: "It seems that the rumors are true. This son Fusu is indeed generous and humble, with a broad mind, and he is an emperor." Everyone nodded in agreement, and after Fusu had finished speaking, all heroes were asked to register their names in the register according to their abilities, so that they could be members of Juxian Hall.Xiao Chuan, Xiang Yu, and Xiang Liang are all people with their own strengths, so they were easily included in the Juxian Hall. Even Cui Wenzi and Sanbao were easily included in the Juxian Hall, but Liu Bang happened to be registered When I met the master of ceremonies again, the master of ceremonies looked down on Liu Bang very much: "This gentleman has nothing to use except for his lip service, so wait until you have practiced a skill before you come!" Liu Bang wanted to moan again, but was pushed out by several servants. Liu Bang was afraid that he would be ridiculed by Lu Zhi after he went back, so he quickly grabbed Xiao Chuan and asked him to accompany him back to see Lu Gong and help him intercede . Xiaochuan also thought that since the Lu family's father and daughter came to Xianyang, he would go to visit anyway, so he said to Liu Bang, "Okay, I'll go with you." Xiao Chuan went to bid farewell to Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu, and Xiang Liang said to Xiao Chuan earnestly, "Xiao Chuan, I was quite worried as a teacher when I saw you this time. Although you have left the school, you are still my disciple. Here are three chapters of agreement with you, first, abstain from alcohol and not drink excessively; second, diligently practice martial arts and the art of war, and not let it go to waste; third..." Xiang Liang looked at Liu Bang who was beside Xiao Chuan, and Xiao Chuan asked without knowing why: "Master, just tell me what you have to say, I will never let you down again!" Xiang Liang stroked his beard and said, "Third, don't associate with bad people!" Xiao Chuan has already heard that Xiang Liang's implication is to keep him away from people like Liu Bang. Xiao Chuan was about to explain, but Liu Bang beside him agreed: "Don't worry, I will urge Xiao Chuan to abide by these three rules." treaty law." After hearing this, Xiang Liang was taken aback for a moment, and then walked away in anger, thinking, I have seen thick-skinned people before, but I have never seen such thick-skinned people, and I have lived so much of my life, today is my experience. Xiang Yu said to Xiao Chuan: "Xiao Chuan, you have to take care of yourself!" Xiao Chuan said with full respect: "Brother knows!" Xiang Yu looked at Xiao Chuan and nodded, and caught up with Xiang Liang, while Liu Bang came and pulled Xiao Chuan and ran away. Xiao Chuan followed Liu Bang to the inn. To the surprise of Lu Gong and Lu Zhi, Xiao Chuan knelt down as soon as he saw the two of them. Home, failed to take good care of Susu, let Susu go before me!" When Lu Gong and Lu Zhi heard it, it was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and they burst into tears together. Xiao Chuan told Lu Gong and Lu Su the process from taking care of himself to contracting the plague.Lu Gong was really heartbroken, and regretted that he should not drive Xiao Chuan away, let alone force Lu Su to marry, but now it is too late to say anything, and his own Su Su is no longer alive.Lu Gong suddenly felt desolate when a white-haired man sent a black-haired man. He asked Liu Bang why he concealed the facts. Liu Bang argued that he did not want to make Lu Gong too sad by concealing the facts.Mr. Lu understood that it was useless to pursue anything now, so he wiped away his tears, sighed for a while, and then asked Xiao Chuan, "Susu...Susu just left, didn't she leave anything behind?" Xiao Chuan lowered his head and said: "She...she left a word before she left, let me be filial to you on her behalf, take good care of the Lu family, and you will treat me as your son from now on!" Xiao Chuan prostrated himself on the ground while talking. In order to commemorate Lu Su's spirit in heaven, Duke Lu specially set up a mourning hall for Lu Su in the West Wing Room, on which Lu Su's memorial tablet was placed.That night, Xiao Chuan kept vigil for Lu Su. When he walked into the mourning hall, he found that Lu Pheasant had already burnt incense for Lu Su inside. Xiao Chuan said to Lu Zhi with guilt on his face: "Go back and rest, I will watch the night tonight." Lu Zhi looked at Xiao Chuan with full eyes. Although she was very sad about Lu Su's departure now, she still kept her love for Xiao Chuan in her heart.Lu Zhi said to Xiao Chuan gently: "I will watch the night with you." Xiao Chuan didn't say anything, squatted down, and started to burn paper money for Lu Su. Lu Zhi came over and burned paper money with Xiao Chuan. Lu Zhi was very close to Xiao Chuan, and she seemed to be able to hear Xiao Chuan's steady heartbeat. Gathering enough courage, he said, "I was begging my sister to forgive me just now." "Forgive you for what?" "Forgive me for thinking about you all the time. From the first time I saw you, to the moment I fell out with my sister because of you. She ran away from home on the day she was forced to marry. The two of us talked about everything since we were young, but on that day, we There was a quarrel. She had no one to discuss with, and she didn't know what to do, so she chose to run away. I'm sorry for her..." Lu Zhi began to cry as he spoke.After listening to Lu Zhi's words, Xiao Chuan was very moved: "I know, you have always been Susu's closest person, and Susu will never forget you before she leaves, and she also asked me to take good care of you. I promised her, and I will definitely do it." We're here." After Xiao Chuan finished speaking, he closed his eyes, and he recalled the scene of Lu Su feeding himself meticulously. Lu Zhi looked at Xiao Chuan affectionately, she remembered the little things with Xiao Chuan, she sang for Xiao Chuan, and together with Xiao Chuan organized private school charity, Xiao Chuan hugged herself... Lu Su recalled, becoming more and more distraught Confused, she couldn't help hugging Xiao Chuan gently, and leaned her face on Xiao Chuan's shoulder.Xiao Chuan opened his eyes at once, and saw that Lu Zhi was leaning against his arms, and said coldly, "Please let go." "Yi Lang, you know how bitter I am. Every day and night we are apart, I never stop thinking about you! I love Susu, she is my dearest person, but do you believe it? I think of you More than thinking of her, Yi Lang..." Lu's pheasant embraced Xiao Chuan with forgetfulness, but Xiao Chuan pushed Lu's pheasant away in disgust, and he shouted at Lu's pheasant, "What are you doing!" Lu Zhi was frightened by Xiao Chuan's appearance and cried, she said with tears: "Yi Lang, since you promised to take care of us for the rest of your life, then take care of me from now on, I've been waiting for you for too long..." Xiaochuan turned his head away and stopped looking at Lu Su: "I promised Susu to take care of you like a family member! Lu Zhi, if you really love Susu, you shouldn't do such a thing in her mourning hall! I will tolerate things that are disrespectful to Susu. You go, don't let me despise you again!" Xiao Chuan continued to shout: "You go!" Lu Pheasant stood up slowly, enduring the tears that welled up in her eyes, and slowly walked out of the mourning hall. She sat outside the mourning hall with blank eyes for a long time... At dawn, Xiao Chuan opened the door and came out. He saw Lu Zhi sitting outside the door blankly, and felt a pain in his heart, but what could he do, Xiao Chuan pretended not to see her, and left indifferently. Lu Zhi watched Xiao Chuan walk by, with tears streaming down her face, she said silently in her heart: "You didn't come over to help me, you didn't come over to say a word to me, you didn't even look at me more! I shouldn't Treated like this! You not only broke my heart, but also trampled my dignity under my feet! I want you to pay the price, I want you to regret everything you did today! I want you to understand that rejecting me, It's your whole life's mistake!" Once again rejected by Xiao Chuan, Lu Zhi turned from love to Xiao Chuan to hate, she decided to marry Liu Bang, and set three conditions for Liu Bang, within ten years, must be higher status than Xiao Chuan, richer than Xiao Chuan, The land is bigger than the small river. After Liu Bang heard this, he thought that he would agree first and talk about it later, so he readily agreed immediately, but what he didn't expect was that Lu Zhi actually took out a written note and asked him to draw it on the spot, and saw that the written note read: However, if Liu Bang fails to fulfill the three conditions within ten years, everything about him will be at the disposal of Lu Zhi, including Liu Bang's head. Liu Bang frightened and signed the document, he thought to himself, originally wanted to marry a beautiful girl, but unexpectedly married a tigress, what a pity!
