Chapter 51 Section 1: The city of Liyang is cloudy

Wei Yang had never been so angry before. The fire in the iron workshop was extinguished and the scorched-earth ruins were removed. In a few days, a big house made of bricks and stones replaced the dilapidated houses and sheds with earthen walls and wooden columns. The ironworkers cheered and immediately became busy again.As far as iron workshops are concerned, it is a good thing that the dilapidated workshops have been updated and the output of ironware has increased.However, on the night of the Tiefang incident, the news of the assassination of Wei Yang by the Mohist swordsman spread like wildfire, and the people in Liyang City were uneasy.Wei Yang's annoyance lies in this.He knew very well that those who attacked and drove away the Mohist disciples must be some kind of force that sympathized with the reform and defended itself.But they did a disservice to the anti-revolutionary forces that had been dormant in Liyang City and even in Qin State.This must have been unexpected by the forces attacking the Mo family.

What kind of power are they?With Wei Yang's understanding of the power of the people in the world, he couldn't figure out where it came from.Being able to drive away thirty Mohist swordsmen cleanly and quickly in Liyang City is definitely not an easy school.Among the School of Warring States, Guiguzi is the only one who can compete with the Mohists in secret operations.Although most of the other schools have outstanding swordsmen who hide their secrets, they are mainly studying after all, and it is impossible to carry out such a thunderstorm-like attack.Even military strategists who are famous generals have never engaged in secret operations because their ambitions are not here.So, it was the ghost gate that launched the attack?possible.Because Guiguzi is a staunch Legalist politically, he has always opposed the Mohist intervention of the country's legal system with the big and unreasonable "universal love and non-aggression".Furthermore, there are many ghosts and strange men, and there should be as many as hundreds of people who are as wise as a hundred-mile old man. Although they cannot compete with the Mohists in overall actions, it is still possible to defeat the Mohists in one action.However, once the ghost gate is out of the mountain, the organization is very strict, and it is impossible not to give yourself a message.Could it be that the teacher broke his promise to let him bear the risks in this world alone, and wanted to help him?No.impossible.The teacher made an agreement with him, which condensed a long time of thinking. It was the teacher's secret experiment against the world, and it was impossible to change.Besides, how can one not think of the consequences of doing so with the wisdom of the ghost gate?How can I do him a disservice?It should be said that it would not be the work of the ghost gate.Where can anyone be?Could it be that the Sixth National Congress of Shandong will protect me, Wei Yang?Unbelievable!Wei Yang felt funny at this idea and couldn't help laughing.

"Master Zuo Shu, what's the fun?" Jing Jian walked into the study. "I lost my sheep on a crossroad, looking around in a daze, not happy? Is there something wrong?" "I heard that recently Qianlong gave a lecture to the prince, and it was about "Hong Fan" in the "Shangshu"." Wei Yang was suddenly surprised.This Qianlong is the Grand Master, although he has a high reputation, he is not the prince's tutor after all, and he cannot give lectures to the prince under ordinary circumstances.According to the practice of the Qin State, if ministers other than Prince Fu want to give lectures to the prince, Prince Fu must first report to the monarch, and the monarch can only give lectures with the permission of the monarch.Now that Duke Xiao of Qin is patrolling far away in the western frontier, who would allow Qian Long to lecture to the crown prince?There are only two Prince Fu, Yingqian is on the left to lead, and Gongsun Jia is on the right to lecture. Could it be that Yingqian is the one who asked Qianlong to lecture?This matter seems trivial, but it has subtle and profound entanglements.The prince is the crown prince of the country, and the prince plays a vital role in whether the French reform policy can be continued.And what kind of ruling the prince accepts is the foundation of the change of national policy.It is impossible for Qin Xiaogong not to understand the mystery.But the prince is still young, and at the same time, in order to appease the veterans and important officials to ensure the smooth reform, Qin Xiaogong made Gongsun Jia the prince Fu, and just in case, he let his loyal brother Yingqian take the lead on the left; at the same time, he clearly warned Gongsun Jia that three years Within the period, the prince mainly taught technical and intellectual classics, such as agricultural books, music books, military books and the six Confucian arts.Qin Xiaogong once hinted to Wei Yang that when the time is right, he will hand over the important task of teaching the prince to Wei Yang.Wei Yang also understood this very well.How could it be too late or too early, when the Mohist assassins were exposed and rumors were spreading, Qianlong actually gave lectures to the prince?And it is the famous "Shangshu·Hong Fan Pian"!

"Jing Jian, I'm going to pay a visit to Young Master Qian, what do you think?" "It should be so. Young Master Qian is the chief prince Fu, maybe he has something to do with him." A moment later, a simple car drove out of Zuo Shuchang's mansion and headed straight for General Yingqian's mansion.The reforms were so complicated that Wei Yang hadn't met Ying Qian alone for a long time.As the current ruling minister and the important minister who once held military and political power, Wei Yang and Yingqian should have communicated frequently.Wei Yang was very aware of the samadhi in his heart, but due to his nature, Wei Yang was never enthusiastic about all kinds of visits and communications without official content. "Have no second thoughts, do the public good and disregard selfishness" was the evaluation of Wei Yang by celebrities at that time.Even if this kind of personality is present in ordinary scholars, it is difficult to express it in an extreme way.But in the case of a minister in power like Wei Yang, such an extreme character may turn a person into a cold official machine.The complicated official duties overwhelmed everything and permeated Wei Yang's actions and life.This endowment of selflessness and selflessness is magnified and extreme in the endless official duties.In official contacts, Wei Yang has no personal relationships, only official business.Meet with anyone and see them off as soon as business is over.The speed with which he handled official duties surprised all the subordinate officials. The official documents of the two cases were carried into the study at night, and distributed to various government offices on time the next day, without delay even half an hour.When the officials reported the incident, no one took more than half a stick of incense.Wei Yang has a rule, after twenty drops from the copper pot, if the officials can't explain one thing clearly, they immediately let him go down to sort out the clues and come back again.If you exceed it three times, you will be fined one stone of salary. If you exceed it six times, you will be demoted to the left and transferred to the Zuo Shu Changfu.For more than two years, Wei Yang has fined thirteen people and demoted nine people.Without the disposition to specialize in official affairs and concentrate on nothing else, this extremely high official speed is simply impossible.

Naturally, there is no time for such a minister in power to visit and socialize frequently. Contrary to Wei Yang, Ying Qian is very laid back.Since Yingqian gave up the position of Zuo Shuzhang to Wei Yang, Yingqian's official duties have been greatly reduced.In officialdom and politics, the amount of official business is the amount of power.A leisurely official, even a high-ranking official, who has little official business to do, undoubtedly has lost power.The title of Zuo Shuchang of Qin State is not high, but he has always been a powerful minister who also leads the military and government.Since Yingqian gave up this position, his original affairs in the army gradually decreased.Although the position of general is there, there are not many practical affairs when there is no war.Because the daily military affairs are also assigned to Zuo Shuzhang, and the specific military affairs are assigned to guards and generals like Che Ying.Therefore, this general has almost become a nominal commander.As for the position of Prince Fu, it was even more of a nameless title to him, and he could have left it alone.Besides, it is really annoying to let him fine-tune a young nephew with his fiery temper.As a result, Ying Qian, who was just young and strong, became as leisure as the old grand master Qian Long.Even so, Yingqian didn't have any complaints.He knows that if one more person intervenes in politics, it is often half the result with twice the effort.Since I had contributed to Shangxian's abdication of power back then, why should I make trouble out of nothing today?Yingqian is very understanding, but he always feels empty.Practicing sword and reading every day has become his two most important things.

Hearing Wei Yang's arrival, Ying Qian greeted him happily, "Oh, Mr. Zuo Shu is here, you are really a rare visitor!" Then he walked to the front of the car and stretched out his hand to help Wei Yang get out of the car. Once Wei Yang regards the visit as official business, his mind becomes alert and meticulous, paying great attention to every detail.He stood on the car, and when he saw Yingqian coming out, he clasped his hands away. Before the car stopped, he jumped out of the car, met Yingqian's hands and laughed heartily, "Prince Fu, are you all right?" Shaking Yingqian's arm vigorously, he was as rude as meeting old friends in the army.

"What a strong hand! I can't do it anymore." Yingqian laughed, patted Wei Yang on the shoulder, "Go in and talk." He took Wei Yang's hand and laughed and talked all the way into the house.Yingqian's mansion is relatively spacious in Qin State, with five rooms and four entrances with a small courtyard, one entrance hall guard, two entrances to a small courtyard, three entrances to the main hall, and four entrances to the study and sword room.Yingqian led Wei Yang through the room and the hall, giving pointers and introductions as he walked, and finally pushed open a round door in the corridor of the sword room and said with a smile, "How is this place?"

In front of him was a quiet courtyard!A few mulberry trees, a vegetable field, and a mound of earth on top of it, there is a small stone pavilion on the hill, and there are stone tables and stone piers under the pavilion.The whole yard is neat and clean, which makes people feel refreshed physically and mentally.Wei Yang couldn't help admiring: "Living in a castle, with this idyllic small building, this life is enough!" Yingqian laughed loudly, "It was reformed by the Xiaokuanyuan. There is nothing wrong with it. I spent half a year working on it." "You and I will talk at Shiting, how about it?"

Yingqian clapped his palms and said with a smile, "Wonderful! That's exactly what I want to do. Elder, bring me a jar of good wine!" The two sat down in the stone pavilion on the top of the mountain, the autumn sun was weak, and the cool breeze was half-permeable, which was exceptionally refreshing.The elder of the family brought a jar of good wine, two food tripods and a set of tableware, and thoughtful of everything, he quietly went out of the pavilion. "Come on, you and I haven't seen each other for a long time, let's do this one first!" Ying Qian raised the big wine cup generously.

Wei Yang raised his title, "It's close at hand, don't come to visit, and apologize first." He drank it down. "Where did you come from? Your official business is so complicated that I've become a habit of laziness, each with fifty sticks! Do it!" Yingqian laughed and drank. Wei Yang smacked his lips, patted the table and laughed, "This is Zhao wine! I haven't drunk it for many years, and today I have such a good fortune, let's do it again!" A blush quickly flashed across Yingqian's face, and he smiled generously and said, "I'm ashamed. This is a horse merchant from an old friend of Zhao State who gave me a cart. I never drink Zhao wine. I gave Gongsun Jia a few and left a few altars behind. , I drank once in a while, hey! Damn, it’s just unusual! If I had known that you judged kung fu so much, wouldn’t it be great if you and I split up? It’s so cheap!” There was another burst of laughter.

"There is no home for wine and tea, so I can't put it down." Wei Yang said with a smile: "Does Gongsun Jia also like wine?" Yingqian shook his head, "Where? He used my wine as a tribute to Old Qianlong." "Is there any reason for this? The old master never drinks alcohol." "You only know one thing, but you don't know the other thing. Old Qianlong doesn't drink alcohol when he's out, but he drinks it with wine soaked in herbs at home." "The wine soaked in medicine should be mellow and bitter, and Zhao Jiu is the right way." "That's right." Yingqian laughed and said, "Then Gongsun Jia came to my place to beg for a few jars, and gave it to Old Qianlong." "That's right. After all, Gongsun Jia and the old grand master are known as teachers and students, and they should respect their teachers." Yingqian sneered slightly, "Respect the teacher? Pull out one Mao to benefit the world and not do it, Gongsun Jiaye. He is to work for the old Qianlong to teach him." "Teaching? Do you ask the old master to teach his son?" "There. Lectures for the prince. Gongsun Jia babbled at me, saying that he had very little practice and couldn't figure out a few ancient texts. He wanted to ask old Qianlong to teach the prince. You said that such trivial matters are also making noise, which is annoying. No? After a few days, he came to chatter again, saying that Lao Qianlong had agreed, and asked me what classics I should talk about? If you drink Zhao wine, you might as well ask him to honor the teacher. Tell me, how does he know that I don’t drink Zhao wine? That smile makes me tired. I just gave him a few jars of wine and saw off the guests immediately!" Laughing and cursing However, Yingqian was actually full of contempt and loathing for Gongsun Jia. Wei Yang heard it clearly, and couldn't help but feel excited—what a sinister Gongsun Jia!Everything was "reported" to the chief prince Fu, and everything was done according to his own plan.Yingqian didn't know anything, but he couldn't say that he didn't know, but he had to take care of anything that happened!Thinking about it carefully, only the role of Yingqian can overcome this matter.Wei Yang took another big drink, and asked with a generous smile, "My lord, do you know what the old grand master told the prince?" Yingqian shook his head, "Who cares about books? Are they all the same? Wine!" "The old grand master is talking about the "Hong Fan Pian" of the "Shang Shu"." "What's wrong?" "Young master, "Hong Fan Pian" in "Shangshu" is the idea of ​​governing the country that Yin Shang Jizi told the king of Shang. It is the classic of Yin and Yang theory of Wang Dao. Yingqian was startled, his face became gloomy when he thought about it, and he slapped his palm on the stone table with a "Pa!", "Zhi Niang thief!" As if he was in the army again, he cursed rudely and suddenly stood up, "Mr. Zuo Shu!" Self-return. I will go to the Prince's Mansion." Qian Long was speaking eloquently, his yin and yang faltering, vivid and colorful. The Crown Prince's Mansion of the Qin State is actually a side courtyard of the Guofu Palace.The largest in the courtyard is the study room, which is divided into two of the six rooms, with the lecture hall on the east and the reading and writing room on the west.Gongsun Jia gave the prince a simple and clear division of work and rest time: practice swords from five watch to Mao, practice calligraphy and engrave bamboo slips in the morning, lecture after lunch, and review for an hour in the evening. Prince Yingsi was born to Qin Xiaogong and a court lady who was six years older than him.The maid named Cai Sang disappeared suddenly one month after giving birth to Ying Si.She left a piece of white cloth beside Ying Si, with eight large characters written in blood—suffering from internal diseases, fleeing far away in the mountains and forests!Since then, he has never returned.Ying Quliang, who had just learned about human affairs, was very angry at that time, thinking that Caisang was a heartless woman.It wasn't until he became an adult that Ying Quliang understood the painstaking efforts of that beautiful court lady—Old Qin Feng was a simple and wild man, and his illegitimate son would inherit the great business as usual, but he often had many criticisms against his mother.If Caisang stays in the palace, the notoriety of bewitching the prince may become a fatal trap for his son at any time in court disputes.Leave resolutely, once everything is settled, isn't it a strange woman who is extremely intelligent!From then on, Ying Quliang suddenly repented and became angry, but he never married a wife and set up a queen. Ying Si was brought up by the queen mother, she is very talented, her personality matured very early, and she was as deep and thoughtful as an adult at the age of twelve or thirteen.He usually listened to Gongsun Jia's lectures, and he seldom asked questions like ordinary children. When he asked a question occasionally, it was often difficult for Gongsun Jia to answer.Once, Gongsun Jia talked about Xu Xing's "Nongjing".Ying Si suddenly asked: "Sir, Xu Xingchu people, Nanman gossip, how can you understand the agricultural affairs of the Central Plains?" Today's lecturer is Qian Long, but Ying Si is very respectful, listening to the lecture for an hour, with a solemn expression on his face.The little prince admired this gray-haired old grand master very much. He knew from an early age that he was a third-generation veteran of the Qin State and a well-educated oriental celebrity. "Shangshu" was the first time he heard about the way of governing the country, and he really enjoyed it. "Generally speaking, "Hong Fan Pian" is a model for all ages. The five elements, five events, eight policies, five disciplines, three virtues, five blessings, and six extremes are the constant pattern of the operation of all things in the world, the outline of governing the country and the people, making friends and being a person." It is also the criterion. The rule of the three generations, so the world, all rely on the power of Jizi's "Hong Fan". Since the Spring and Autumn Period, the king's way has declined, and the hegemony has risen. The founding princes of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, since Baili Xili, the Duke of Mu, practiced the kingly way and came out of the world, the world has gone downhill, the honesty has been lost, the kingly way has been annihilated, and the country has fallen; , The country will lose the country, and it is very sad. Woohoo! Where is Mu Gongan? Where is Baili Xi'an?!" The old grand master Qian Long said at the end, his head trembling, and he cried bitterly at his desk. After all, Ying Si was childish and innocent, so she was very surprised, and hurried forward to comfort her, "Don't be sad, the old grand master. The country's great affairs should be discussed in the long run. When the father-in-law comes back, Ying Si will definitely tell the old grand master that he is loyal and strongly advise the old grand master. That’s it for the sovereign state.” "Cough!" Gongsun Jia sighed heavily, with tears glistening and choking, "Prince, the present is not what it used to be, and we must not be reckless. The old grand master has worked hard, and the prince knows enough, so why dare to hope to make up for it." "The teacher's words are wrong!" Ying Si said generously, "It's not too late to make up for it, so why talk about extravagant expectations? You old ministers, don't you think that your father-in-law is a fatuous person who doesn't accept faithful advice?" Gongsun Jia was terrified, and kowtowed on the ground, "The prince should stop talking about Meng Lang, and the ministers and others will not be able to bear the blame. The old grand master is dying, and the minister wants to escape to the mountains for a long time. How dare you intervene in the court?" Unexpectedly, Ying Si was even more annoyed, her little face flushed, and she screamed, "Is there any reason for that? Has the Qin State become a dangerous state and cannot live in it? Who made the country look like this? All ministers with bones will leave! Who? Say Ah! I'm so afraid..." But she stopped suddenly, staring straight at the door. Yingqian walked in with a frosty face, and said coldly: "Si'er, as a crown prince, how can you be disrespectful to ministers?" Ying Si, like all the children of the public office, has always been afraid of this mighty and dignified uncle. Besides, he is the prince Zuo Fu, so he disciplines himself justifiably.His face flushed, his momentum shrank immediately, Qi Qi Ai said: "Si'er, see you, I have met uncle. No, I didn't say much..." "There is an official statement on state affairs. I am not uncle, I am Prince Zuo, here to inspect your studies." Yingqian interrupted Ying Si coldly, biting the words "Prince Zuo" loudly and loudly. Qian Long's eyes were dim with tears, and he was a little dazed for a moment.Although he is a senior official, he has always respected and stayed away from the thunderbolt warrior Yingqian. In fact, he is in awe. Moreover, he is in the prince's mansion today, and Yingqian is clearly the rightful master; But it's always wrong to speak out.Although Qian Long was uneasy in his heart, after all, he had been through the sea for a long time, sobbing casually: "Zuo Fu Jianliang, because the old man is grateful for Duke Mu, he lost his composure. The prince comforted the old minister, so don't blame the prince." Ying Si glanced at Qian Long gratefully, and felt that the gray-haired old master was very gracious. Gongsun Jia was in extreme embarrassment at first, but he calmed down after Ying Si and Gan Long blocked him. He wiped his tears and cupped his hands and said, "Gongsun Jia sees Zuo Fu. The crown prince has done something, and Gongsun Jia is responsible. He is willing to be punished." .” But Yingqian grinned, "You Gongsun Jia, I was so bored that I walked around in a panic. Why don't you tell me about the old grand master's lectures, so that I, a rough man, can learn a little more?" "Zuo Fu laughed, didn't I report it to you? Zuo Fu even asked me to present the old master Zhao Jiu." Yingqian was startled, but laughed loudly, "Stupid. That's good. From today onwards, every time I come to listen, I have nothing to do. How can I learn more? Old master, let's continue." Qian Long cupped his hands and said, "It's been two hours. The old minister is old and can't bear it." Yingqian burst into laughter again, "The old grand master can lecture for two hours, and he is growing stronger and stronger. Congratulations. I am most afraid of talking, and I can't hold it for half a stick of incense. My throat must be hoarse." Gongsun Jia said with a smile: "The old master is really tired. Next time I give a lecture, I will make a special trip to ask Supervisor Zuo to give a lecture." Yingqian's face darkened, "Speaker? Are you suspicious of the old grand master, who will confuse the prince with heresy? Be bold!" Gongsun Jia never imagined that the hot yam thrown to Yingqian would return to his hand so quickly and neatly. He hastily forced a smile on his face, and cupped his hands repeatedly, "How dare you? You are guilty and guilty. Forgive me, old master! Forgive Zuo Fu!" Qian Long frowned and said with a sneer, "Gongsun Jia, learn a little bit. Zuo Fu, I'm leaving." With his back bent, he coughed and went out the door with an old-fashioned appearance.Ying Si gave Gongsun Jia a hard look, and hurried to help Qian Long go out and get into the car. "Master You Fu, when will you teach the book, don't forget me, remember?" Yingqian smiled brightly. "Gongsun Jia is determined by Mr. Zuo Fu!" Gongsun Jia was all smiles, but his legs were trembling. As soon as the lights were turned on, the officials carried in the official documents of the two cases.Wei Yang sat down in front of the book case, and was about to start critiquing.Just as he was about to write, Jing Jian hurried in and explained the affairs of the Prince's Mansion in detail. Wei Yang couldn't help laughing, but he didn't say anything.Jing Jian knew Wei Yang's rules, so he was busy with business immediately after speaking.Just after a few volumes were approved, Wei Yang suddenly felt a figure in front of him!Unknowingly, the stylus and dagger in his hand flew out!Then he looked up, only to see Hou Ying standing in front of him holding a stylus and smiling. "Ah, it's Brother Hou." Wei Yang heaved a sigh of relief, "I was taken aback. Come, sit down, please." Hou Ying laughed and said, "I think your stylus is pretty good. There are arrows in the goose feathers. It can be said that there are needles hidden in cotton." "Brother Hou has a good eye. This is the iron pen goose feather sword. The teacher gave it to me. I don't want to use it wrong the first time." Hou Ying sat across from him, "Brother Yang, I heard that there were assassins in the city, so I came to take a look. Jingnan is missing, you have to be more careful." Wei Yang nodded, then frowned deeply: "Brother Hou, what do you say? Which school of thought in the world can compete with Mohist swordsmen?" Hou Ying was startled, shook his head and smiled, "How? Do you want to ask for help?" "Where did you come from, overnight, the Mohist swordsman was driven away by an unknown sect." "Is there such a thing? These swordsmen are very powerful." Hou Ying was surprised. "They obviously wanted to help me, so they did a great disservice." Hou Ying's face changed slightly, "How is it? It's not helping you? I would like to hear more about it." "Cough," Wei Yang sighed, "it's no wonder. How can they understand the secrets of this political way? For political people, many things cannot be revealed to the world. These are so-called state secrets. Powerful officials will always have political opponents when they are in power. Those who want to get rid of them and then quickly. The vendetta of political enemies can be prevented and cured, but not reported to the people. What is the reason? The people's sentiments are like the sea, where there are winds, there will be waves, and when the waves are strong, the country will be overthrown. The unruly people will communicate with it, making the people's hearts unstable and making it difficult to carry out national policies. The Mohist school has been the banner of righteousness that has shocked the world for nearly a hundred years. , will be eliminated. Now the Mohist swordsmen were attacked and expelled in Liyang, and a fire was added, so that everyone in the government and the public knew that the Mohists believed that the Qin Reform was a tyranny and abuse of the people, and the rumors would spread like wildfire. Whose ambition is so long? Who has destroyed the prestige? When the reform is climbing the slope, the common people have not yet woken up. After this action, the people are confused and unable to distinguish. The misunderstanding of the Mohists will go deeper. Does it take a lot of trouble? Brother Hou thinks, is this true? Was it a disservice?" Wei Yang spoke slowly and heavily, worried. As Hou Ying listened, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead. He was very flustered and said abruptly, "Why didn't you think of this?" He became alert again and said with a smile, "Brother Yang, don't worry. Dare to fight with me?" The Mohist opponents must be extraordinary people. In my humble opinion, those who untie the bell must tie the bell, maybe they will make up for their own troubles." Wei Yang sighed with emotion, "Although it's not helpful, Wei Yang can take comfort in having such an unknown friend. This is the only person who knows about my reform! Why do you want to make amends?" Hou Ying also sighed, with a touch of emotion in his eyes, "Brother Martingale, Hou Ying bids farewell." After sending Hou Ying away, Wei Yang had no intention of reading the official documents, so he paced in the courtyard, looking up at the bright moon in the sky, but his heart was ups and downs.I don't know if Baixue has returned to Wei State safely?Will the Mo family make trouble for her?Your Majesty is on tour in the west, why is there no news yet?Did Che Ying find Jun Shang?The Mo family hastily retreated, what might be the next step?How to resolve and clarify this hostile misunderstanding with the Mohists?Is it necessary to go to the Mohist General Court in person... I wondered about it, but I didn't have a clue for a while.But no matter what you do, you have to wait for the king to come back. Liyang cannot be without a lord of the country, and the king and Wei Yang must have someone guarding Liyang.It is more suitable for Jun Shang to rule the country. After all, Wei Yang is very familiar with the life in the mountains and the sect of the school, so he must not let Jun Shang take risks.Yes, exactly.The reform has already begun, and without me, Wei Yang, your majesty can continue to carry out the reform.Without Your Majesty, how can I, Wei Yang, gain a firm foothold in Qin?After thinking about it, Wei Yang became clear, and felt that he should take advantage of the winter season to resolve the misunderstanding of the Mohists and clear the way for the promotion of reforms in the coming spring.Even if it takes time to go to the mountains, three months and one long trek is enough... Suddenly, the sound of horseshoes was as urgent as a shower, and it rolled across Jingye Long Street like thunder!After listening carefully, he was coming towards Zuo Shuchang's mansion.Wei Yang's heart was shaken, and he strode hurriedly towards the gate of the mansion. The cavalry team was stopping in front of Zuo Shuchang's mansion, Che Ying got off her horse, "Wei Wei Che Ying, see Zuo Shuchang!" Wei Yang's heart sank, "Che Ying, where is Your Majesty?" "Report to Master Zuo, Your Majesty insisted on going to danger alone, and went to Shennong Mountain to talk to Lao Mozi... Master Zuo!" Wei Yang's heart skipped a beat, his face turned pale suddenly, and he was about to fall down.Che Ying rushed forward and supported Wei Yang.At this time Jing Jian had arrived, and immediately helped Wei Yang back to the dormitory with Che Ying.When the imperial physician was summoned like sparks, Wei Yang had already turned over from the couch and sat up, and waved his hand to order everyone to leave, except Che Ying, the supervisor of Jing, was left in the room.Wei Yang stepped down from the couch, his legs still felt weak, he forced himself to support the sword frame and said, "Che Ying, what are the details? Tell me carefully." Wei Yang's shock and fainting deeply shocked Jing Jian, Che Ying and even all the officials in Zuo Shu Chang's mansion.In their eyes, this outstanding person who was before Mount Tai collapsed and remained unchanged, was so anxious to hear about the urgency of the king, which shows his utter devotion to the king and the state of Qin!In the age of the Warring States period, wind and thunder were raging, and only with utter devotion can one blaze a trail of survival.Only in this way, people's desire and admiration for Dazhong reached the extreme.A person can be mediocre, but as long as he has the virtue of loyalty, he will be praised, admired and followed by people.Those who are talented but not loyal or righteous will be despised by the world.Loyal to family and country, loyal to father, loyal to merit, loyal to friendship, loyal to love, loyal to bosom friend, loyal to school, loyal to faith... Endless loyalty honed its dazzling brilliance in the cruel and fierce world, countless loyal ministers and martyrs , leaving the story of the world changing color.No matter when, no matter where, people's admiration for loyalty will not diminish, and they will be moved by it.When Wei Yang woke up, all the eyes in the room were filled with tears.Their tears condensed their reverence for Wei Yang and their loyalty to the old state of Qin.Moreover, Wei Yang is a scholar from Shandong and a foreigner, and his loyalty to Qin is more likely to arouse the emotions of these old Qin people. Wei Yang didn't seem to see anything, but just stared at Che Ying closely. After wiping off the sweat and tears on Che Ying's face, she recounted the details of chasing the monarch, the monarch's distress, the monarch's decision to go into the mountains, and her strict order to return to Liyang.When retelling the original words of Qin Xiaogong "Qin country cannot live without Wei Yang, Wei Yang is the hope of Qin's new life", Wei Yang burst into tears and fell on the couch! After half an hour, Wei Yang woke up.He finally calmed down, drank a large bowl of steaming mutton soup, and regained his energy.After thinking for a while, he briefly explained to Jing Jian the official duties that must be completed in the evening, and then hurried out. It was nearly four o'clock, and the Liyang market was already silent.When Wei Yang came to the entrance of the Weifeng Inn, he saw it was pitch black, and there was a faintly visible big wooden sign hanging on the place where the lanterns used to hang.Wei Yang walked around to the side door, which was also locked.After looking around for a while, there was indeed no one in the street, so Wei Yang stood on the stone pier in front of the door, and with a slight jerk, he jumped onto the wall.Seeing that there was no one in the courtyard, it was very quiet again, Wei Yang put his hands on the wall and fell silently into the courtyard. Wei Yang believed that Hou Ying would leave a reliable contact messenger at the inn, but now he saw that he had completely withdrawn from Liyang according to his request.At this moment, Wei Yang really hoped that Hou Ying would hold back, otherwise, his emergency plan would be in vain!A monarch who is in danger has no support from Qishi.Wei Yang came here to ask Hou Ying to come out of the mountain to help Duke Qin.He knew Hou Ying well and knew that he was a rare hidden hero.But he never made this point clear. One is that it is unnecessary, and the other is that, as a famous legalist, Wei Yang has always disapproved and has no relationship with "law-disrupting knights".If it wasn't for Bai Xue, Hou Ying was not a businessman, and Wei Yang would not have friendship even if he knew each other.The time is also the situation.In the face of such special moments and special opponents when the elite soldiers are powerless, what is needed is precisely this kind of knight-errant character with extraordinary personal action ability!Knights often say, "The law is used to govern the country, and the chivalry is used to mend the world." Wei Yang has always regarded this as a joke, but today he really wants to invite a ranger to "mend the world", and he can't help feeling emotional, feeling the world for the first time. It is so big that there is really a blind spot that the power of the legal system cannot reach.How is his current action different from that of a ranger?Thinking of this, I couldn't help laughing. Suddenly, Wei Yang heard a slight snore—someone!In the row of big houses where Hou Ying lived. Wei Yang came to the door lightly, thought for a while, and knocked on the door. "Who?" A gruff voice was clearly alert, and Wei Yang heard that he had already arrived behind the door. "Is your master there? I'm a friend from the old country." "Did you come from Anyi? Wait." The door creaked open, a big man rubbed his sleepy face, shook his head vigorously, and finally saw the person in front of him, "Oh, you just came from Anyi? It's late .It's over." "Where's Brother Hou?" "I don't know either. I just keep housekeeping." "How many people are watching the house?" "Just me and He Ya, two of you." "Heya? But Chen Heya?" "Ah, yes! No! How do you know He Ya?" The rude question was obviously jealous. "Where does Heya live? I want to talk to her." "Okay, come with me. Here it is. Heya, someone is looking for you!" "Hey, here we come..." There was a long answer from the small courtyard where Baixue lived, and then the door was opened with broken steps, "Who is looking for me? Oh, big brother!" He hugged Wei Yang. "Ah, it's Big Brother. It's a rare visitor, come in quickly, it's cold in the yard. I'll go make tea!" The big man suddenly became enthusiastic, and trotted away. Wei Yang patted Heya on the shoulder and smiled, "Heya, where's Sister Bai?" "What's more, they all left and didn't take me. I was going back to my hometown, but I heard Hei Zhuzi say that someone wanted to kill that one? Didn’t leave. Come on, big brother, go in and sit down. Where are you from? I’ll get you something to eat…” Heya was incoherent happily. Wei Yang smiled, "Heya, I'm not hungry. Don't rush to talk, I want to ask you a few words." "Ask, ask, I'm happy even if you ask..." "Where did Brother Hou go?" "I don't know. He came back tonight, took a few things in a hurry, and left again." "There is something in the store, how can I find him?" "Oh, he didn't let me and Hei Zhuzi look for him, saying that Liyang would be fine, and that there would be enough food and drink for the two of us, and he would know if something happened, so don't worry about it. We just take care of the dogs, pigs, horses and Clean up the house." "Where's Sister Bai? Are you okay in Wei?" "Huh? Wei Guo? Sister Bai didn't go to Wei Guo?" "How?" Wei Yang was surprised, "Who did you listen to?" "Hei Zhuzi. He sent Sister Bai to the road." Wei Yang was silent.Bai Xue didn't go back to Wei State, Hou Ying didn't go back to the inn, where did they go?The Mo family has already left Liyang, Hou Ying shouldn't have left at all, he left his place tonight and hurried back to the store, there must be something urgent, and he won't be able to come back in a short time, and he won't be able to find it in a short time.After thinking about it, he patted Heya on the shoulder and said: "Heya, I will go back when the weather is warmer. Listen to what my elder brother said, the reform of the Qin State is very stable, and your land is also very stable. Go back to pick mulberries and farm. Is it not good for a mother-in-law to give birth to a fat boy?" Heya wiped her tears: "Brother is the best person in the world, Heya listens to him. Brother, I'll take Hei Zhuzi back, okay?" "Okay. Brother Hou agrees, and Ding Shao, a native of Qin, will be naturalized by the government." He Ya clapped her hands happily, "Hei Zhuzi, come quickly, the elder brother said you can follow me!" The big man was running over with a small trot, holding a copper plate in his hand, and said with a naive smile, "Hey! That's good! I'll leave as soon as Director Hou comes back, ah. Big Brother, Hei Zhuzi thank you. He Ya has been talking about you all day long." Wei Yang smiled and said, "Heya, I don't drink or eat. I have something urgent and I have to go. Hei Zhuzi, you two have a good time, work hard, pay more grain, and earn a title. I'll go see you !" "Hey, listen to the elder brother, and you must not embarrass the elder brother!" Hei Zhuzi nodded vigorously. "Okay. I'm leaving." "Hey, big brother! You ran all the way and left without eating or drinking?" He Ya was so anxious that she was about to cry. Wei Yang turned his head and waved: "Next time I will eat at your house." Then he left in a hurry. Back in the mansion, it was five o'clock.Wei Yang couldn't sleep because of tossing and turning, he stood under the porch and let the cold wind blow.Bai Xue didn't return to Wei State, Hou Ying wasn't at the inn, where did they go?Could it be that he took the opportunity to travel around the world?Won't.If you are traveling in mountains and rivers, why should Hou Ying hurry?Why didn't you tell me when you saw me last night?If Jing Nan was around, he could be sent out to replace Hou Ying, but now that Jing Nan is missing, where can such a person be found?After much deliberation, I was at a loss what to do. For the first time in my life, I encountered an unsolvable problem.
