Chapter 243 Chapter 1 The Mystery of History

Xiang Shaolong sat cross-legged on the mat, letting Xiao Yuetan, who was half kneeling behind him, play tricks on his head. The old friend said with a low smile: "Although I am proficient in the disguise technique of pretending to be a ghost, I don't have many opportunities to actually use it. On the contrary, I have fully demonstrated it on you, which is really strange." After a pause, he continued: "After I changed the way you tied your hair, I dyed your beard and temples several times to turn a little gray, so that you look older." Xiang Shaolong worried: "Then can't you wash your hair with water?"

Xiao Yuetan proudly said: "The dye I mixed is not so easy to wash off. If you can add dye from time to time, there will be no problem." He laughed again: "There are still a few days to arrive in Zishui. The hardest thing you have to do is to get rid of the habit of talking. Of course, the old tricks you used to pretend to be Dong Ma's idiots can't be reused. Just change to a little stuttering, to ensure that no one is there. You can hear the flaw." Xiang Shaolong smiled bitterly and said, "It would be a lie to say that you don't worry, the worst thing is that people who have seen me will see the truth from my appearance."

Xiao Yuetan laughed and said, "Qi State originally belonged to Dongyi, and most of them are majestic. Although there are not many people who are as tall as young dragons, it is true that there are none. As long as the young dragons pretend to be stooped and wretched, when they walk, don't walk with their heads high. There will be no leaks." Xiang Shaolong felt relieved when he remembered that the Qi people were Shandong people, famous for being strong and tall. Xiao Yuetan glanced at the sky outside the window, and said in a low voice: "It's almost dawn, we talked all night, but the more we talk, the more energetic we are. It's rare for us to be so carefree. Ever since I was attacked by Lu Buwei's men, I..."

Seeing that Xiang Shaolong fell silent, he said apologetically, "I shouldn't have mentioned this matter. Sigh, thinking of that matter, I will not sleep well." Xiang Shaolong said decisively: "The day when the Crown Prince ascends the throne is the day when Lu Buwei is defeated, no one can change this fate." Of course Xiao Yuetan would not understand the meaning of historical fate in his words, and reminded: "Shaolong must not underestimate the enemy, Lu Buwei has been in power in Qin for so long, and he will never watch the power he earned turn into nothing. "

Then he said in a low voice: "I came here today to find an opportunity to assassinate him, so as to avenge the third princess and myself. Now that I have Shaolong, I am more confident." Xiang Shaolong complained in his heart, because it was stated in the history books that Lu Buwei died after Xiaopan came to the throne of Qin, if he wanted to take advantage of Lu Buwei's coming to Zizi to assassinate him, he would surely fail. Of course, I can’t say this idea, so I can only say: “This matter needs to be discussed in the long run, and it’s not happy enough to do it this way. I want to see with my own eyes that everything he has built and acquired through hard work is destroyed bit by bit. Cut off his flesh piece by piece, so as to eliminate the hatred in my heart."

Xiao Yuetan nodded and said: "I understand what you mean, ha! It's done. You don't look like Xiang Shaolong anymore! I'll get you a square bronze mirror to look after later. While there is still some time, let's take a nap." Yes!" ◇◇◇◇◇◇ After sleeping for less than half an hour, Xiang Shaolong was awakened by the sound of the door opening. He peeped out and saw Yunniang sneaking in in the dim light before sunrise. He was so frightened that he quickly fell asleep. After Yunniang recognized who was who, she got into Xiao Yuetan's bed, and then Xiao Yuetan's protesting murmur of being woken up was heard, which was replaced by the sound of kissing.

Xiang Shaolong smiled wryly in his heart, if Xiao Yuetan hadn't come, he would be the one enjoying Yunniang's affection now.At the same time, I also realized the importance of status. I used to have status and status, and with my outstanding appearance, I was naturally invincible in love and won the hearts of many beauties.But now that he looks down and out, and is just a servant with the status of a servant, his attractiveness is greatly reduced. Hearing the provocative voices teasing and teasing each other from the other side, his heart was as still as water, and he returned to sleep in a short while to meet his wife and children far away in Xianyang. Surprisingly, Xiao Yuetan woke him up.

At this time the sky was bright, and Xiang Shaolong had slept a lot recently, so even though he lost two hours of sleep last night, he didn't feel tired.But seeing that Xiao Yuetan was still in good spirits, he said in amazement, "I thought you wouldn't be able to get up." Xiao Yuetan said embarrassingly: "This woman is really hungry. Fortunately, I am the kind of person who has more energy when there are more women. The ship is about to berth at the pier, and I will arrange for someone to take a secret letter to Xianyang and hand it over to Chief Tu. Don't worry! I There is a set of secret code words with the manager, even if the secret letter falls into the hands of others, they will not be able to understand it."

Xiang Shaolong got out of the warm blanket, and said with a smile, "How can I be worried about your work?" The two split up after getting dressed. Not long after the ship berthed at the pier, Xiang Shaolong took on the duties of steward for the first time.Fortunately, Feng Fei sent Xiao Ping'er, a beautiful maid who likes to dress up as a man, to help and point out, and they went ashore together to buy what they needed. In addition to edible things, the others are silk satin and rouge gouache.After working for a long time, I didn't return to the ship until dusk. Xiao Ping'er was quite arrogant towards him, Xiang Shaolong secretly thought that in her eyes he was just a servant with more status, so he didn't care.

When riding back on the horse, Xiao Ping'er who was walking in front suddenly fell a little behind, and rode with him, and said calmly: "Miss taught me to remind you that although you have been promoted to be in charge, you must behave more carefully, don't be like Zhang Quan and Sariban destroy the good atmosphere in the regiment." Xiang Shaolong said in astonishment: "The villain doesn't understand what Miss's words mean?" Xiao Ping'er pursed her mouth and snorted coldly: "You know your own business. Someone saw Yunniang coming to your room last night. Mr. Tan is a gentleman, so of course he has nothing to do with him. Hmph! If you hook someone up, you still have to deny it." .”

Xiang Shaolong was speechless. Naturally, he couldn't betray Xiao Yuetan and ruin his image of a gentleman in Feng Fei's eyes, so he had no choice but to swallow this "dead cat" in one gulp. Xiao Ping'er showed disdain, ignored him, and rode his horse ahead. After dinner, Xiang Shaolong returned to the room, Xiao Yuetan sat on the mat, concentrated on grinding the dye, and said with a smile, "It took me a long time to collect these things. I'm going to darken the skin on your face, That would look rougher." Xiang Shaolong sat down beside him, and said with a smile, "Do you know that I took the blame for you?" Xiao Yuetan asked in surprise, "What's the matter?" Xiang Shaolong then repeated Qiao Ping'er's words. Xiao Yuetan pondered for a while, then laughed dumbly and said: "This proud girl is jealous! Shaolong is indeed charming, and she can actually make her nervous." Xiang Shaolong smiled wryly, "Brother Xiao, stop joking!" Xiao Yuetan said happily: "Shaolong is very clever, but unexpectedly he capsized in the gutter, and fell into this little girl's trick. Think about it! It's been so cold these days, who would walk around when everyone is asleep , I saw Yunniang touch our room with my own eyes. It must be because Yunniang's personal maid found out that the master had left the room, so she told this beautiful girl who likes to wear men's clothes. She guessed that Yunniang wanted to cheat on you. I tried it and it worked out, but I got the wrong object.” Xiang Shaolong was speechless. Xiao Yuetan laughed and said: "Except for Feng Fei, what kind of good atmosphere is there in the maiko troupe? Do you think Feng Fei doesn't know that I have a hand with Yunniang? I am a famous romantic person. It's just that girl Ping'er is jealous , I deliberately used Feng Fei to suppress you!" Xiang Shaolong gritted his teeth with hatred and said, "Sooner or later, I will punish this girl." Xiao Yuetan smiled and said, "It's best to treat her in the bed, and let her submit to your crotch." Xiang Shaolong smiled wryly and said, "Now I don't have the time to flirt. I just want to play tricks on her to calm down when I get a chance, and I think she looks down on me at all." Xiao Yuetan said: "If she doesn't worry about it, she will just ignore her. You are also an expert in the field. You should know that women's hearts are the most unreasonable. The more they target you, the more they are interested in you." Xiang Shaolong didn't want to continue the discussion, so he changed the subject and said, "Why didn't your companions come back to the boat?" Xiao Yuetan said: "Are you referring to Zhongsun Heji and the others? I used some tricks to teach them to stay on my boat so that they would not become suspicious of us being too close. I used Xiao Ping'er's trick of falsely passing on the will." way." The two looked at each other and laughed. Xiao Yuetan hid the ground dye in the clothes box he had just brought, clapped his hands and said, "Feng Fei is rehearsing songs and dances tonight, ask me to give some advice, do you want to go and see it together?" Xiang Shaolong lay down and said, "If I don't see you when I get up tonight, can I find you in Yunniang's room?" Xiao Yuetan shook his head and smiled wryly. ◇◇◇◇◇◇ After a while, the sound of dancing and music came from the upper floors, but Xiang Shaolong's thoughts were fluctuating.Unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, he still has to go to Qi State in the end. I really don't know whether it is a disaster or a blessing. Qi, Chu, Yan, Zhao, Wei, Han, and Qinzhong of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, except for the capitals of Yan and Han, who have never been there, are all within his time and space journey. On the return journey, it is very likely that Xiao Yuetan will go to Hanjing with Xiao Yuetan, but it should not be related to Yan Country. Thinking of Prince Dan and others from Yan Guoxuan, and finally Longyang Jun's "delicate appearance" emerged, and he couldn't help feeling drowsy.The ship will continue its voyage tomorrow morning, will it meet this "traitor friend" who once shared weal and woe in Linzi again? In this era of war, everyone tries their best to seek benefits for the country or people they are loyal to, so why not themselves.To a certain extent, Xiang Shaolong is actually loyal to history.Everything has been arranged by the hand of fate, and he is just a faithful executor. Here comes the problem! Would history still be the same without him? Logically, of course, they are completely different things, at least Xiaopan can't be Qin Shihuang. Without Qin Shihuang, there might not be a unified China.A man as handsome and bold as Qin Shihuang is not common even in Chinese history. In other words, at this point in the development of the Qin State, whoever becomes the emperor can unify China, but he never agrees.In fact, because he experienced the situation at this time, he understood that it was just what Kong Ming said afterwards. Victory and defeat are often just a thin line. If Qin had no Wang Jian and Li Si, hey!There is also a key person like myself, it is just a dream to conquer the six countries! That being the case, why did history not write down a character like himself? Thinking of this, I immediately broke out in a cold sweat. When I thought about this question before, it was always fleeting.Only when he had no one to distract him at the moment, and he was completely idle, could he think about it further. He once asked Xiao Pan to completely erase everything about himself, which was based on a terrible idea.If Xiaopan did it on his own initiative instead of his own initiative, it would be very bad. In the final analysis, the only loophole that can affect Xiao Pan's status as emperor is his ulterior life experience. Lu Buwei is very shrewd and knows the "insider situation". Seeing that Xiao Pan does not regard him as his father at all, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be suspicious. On the same day, Tuxian was terrified that he dared to let Lu Gong and others confess Xiaopan and Lu Buwei's blood, so the secret of Xiaopan's life experience was not flawless. Thinking of this, I was sweating profusely. Now only Zhu Ji and him know the whereabouts of the family that adopted the real Yingzheng. If Zhu Ji reveals this secret to Lai Ai, Xiao Pan will be in great crisis. With Xiao Pan's character, he will never let anyone shake his throne. Or he won't kill himself.But what about Zhu Ji? "Heck! Heck!" There was a knock on the door. Xiang Shaolong sat up in surprise, and said, "Who!" "Yeah!" The door opens. A little maid slipped in, smiling like a flower, and said, "Good job, Manager Shen! I fell asleep so soon!" Xiang Shaolong recognized her as the beautiful singer Zhu Xiuzhen's maid, Xiao Ning, who wanted to drive him out of the cabin yesterday, but now his eyes were full of love and spring, and he asked in confusion, "What's the matter, Miss Ning?" Xiao Ning came to sit next to him with a quarrel, and said with a smile, "I'm here to make amends! Oh! Is Manager Shen going to bed so early?" Xiang Shaolong saw her intimacy, he was wary, and said with a serious face: "Isn't Miss Xiaoning going to serve Miss Xiuzhen?" Xiao Ning got closer, exhaled like blue and said in a low voice: "I am here to see you at the order of Miss, alas! The journey is lonely, Xiao Ning wants to find someone to talk to!" Xiang Shaolong frowned and said, "What is your miss looking for from me?" Xiao Ning frowned and said, "Don't treat people like enemies, okay? Hehe! But you look very domineering when you are angry, and it makes people's hearts move. I really want to let you punish me." Xiang Shaolong is a man after all, he couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart, and carefully sized up this pretty maidservant. She should never be older than eighteen years old. Although she is only attractive, her brows and eyes are full of spring, her breasts are bulging, her waist is slender and her legs are long, her skin is smooth and tender. If you say you are not attracted to her, you are lying to yourself. Just thinking about whether to drag her into his arms, but feeling inappropriate and conflicted in his heart, Xiao Ning said in a low voice: "But now Miss misses you, so Xiao Ning has to wait patiently." Xiang Shaolong was startled, and lost his voice: "Your miss..." Xiao Ning nodded and said: "You should know which room the lady is in. After the first shift tonight, the lady will wait for you in the room, just open the door and go in. Hee! Don't forget to thank me, the go-between Woolen cloth." After speaking, he left in a hurry. Xiang Shaolong sat dumbfounded. This Zhu Xiuzhen is second only to Feng Fei and Dong Shuzhen in beauty among the kabuki, and she used to put on a haughty look of hating herself, but she actually has a secret love for her.Should I bear this kind of flying beauty?If Feng Fei knew about it, how would she judge herself. Since leaving Xianyang, apart from having a hand with Qiulin in Daliang, she has lived a celibate life like an ascetic monk. Now that she is relaxed, she has stirred up so many thoughts for that slut Yunniang, and suddenly she came to her door like this The Merry Yan Ji who came here is naturally a little excited. At this moment, all sleepiness disappeared. Needless to say, Xiao Ning, who is quite charming, also lives in the same room with Zhu Xiuzhen. If he goes to steal the fragrance tonight, he will probably kill two birds with one stone. Suddenly, I felt ashamed again. The Ji talented women at home are worrying about themselves, but he is having a good time here, how can he live up to his conscience.Qiulin can be said to be forced to, but there is no excuse to provoke Zhu Xiuzhen. Suddenly making up his mind, he lay back on the sleeping mat and pulled the quilt to cover him firmly. Xiao Yuetan came back humming a little tune with a happy expression. Xiang Shaolong wondered: "Why is Yun Niang willing to let you back?" Xiao Yuetan danced with fascination, and replied: "This is my way of keeping in good health. Sex is indispensable, but not indiscriminate. Let me tell you, Dong Shuzhen wants to renew her relationship with me, and even hinted that I can be her good sister Zhu Xiuzhen The guests who entered the curtain, it seems that they have something to ask me for." Xiang Shaolong was silent when he heard the words, he was very bored, it turned out that Zhu Xiuzhen was just such a woman. Seeing that his expression was different, Xiao Yuetan sized him up for a while and wondered, "Can't you sleep?" Xiang Shaolong sighed: "I was going to sleep! But someone woke me up!" Xiao Yuetan sat down, surprised and asked why. After Xiang Shaolong told the story, Xiao Yuetan pondered for a while, then suddenly said: "It's dangerous! This must be a trap!"
