Chapter 112 I, Liu Ji, am going to have good fortune?
Liu Ji asked a fellow villager what was going on. The fellow villager said in an envious tone: "The king of Xianyang sent an envoy to invite your family to Xianyang to watch the ceremony."
"Liu Ji, you are going to be prosperous. Even the king knows your name. Don't forget us in the future."< br>
Other people in the same village also echoed: "That's right, that's right, we are all from the same village. When you get rich, you can't forget us villagers."
"I have never been there before. In Xianyang, Liu Ji will definitely become a noble person, he can eat meat every meal, and live like a god.”
On weekdays, many of these people look down on him, thinking that he is idle and not doing serious work.
Once passing by a certain house, Liu Ji heard that the family was educating their children: If you don’t work hard, will you want to be like Liu Ji next door? Then the adults are still living at home and can't even get a wife.
Liu Ji stood outside the courtyard wall of that house for a long time before leaving.
Today, these villagers who looked down on him unexpectedly came to compliment him, which made Liu Ji feel a little funny, and at the same time he felt a strange sense of joy in his heart.
But Liu Ji did not show it. Instead, he nodded and said: "Definitely, definitely! May I ask what kind of ceremony the king is asking my family to go to Xianyang to observe?"
Like his father Liu Taigong's first reaction when he heard the news, Liu Ji felt that there could be such a good thing in the world, and there must be something wrong with it.
A fellow villager said: "I heard that the envoy said that the king wanted to be called emperor, and that he wanted to celebrate the whole world and invite people to come to Xianyang to have fun together. Your family just happened to be chosen."
Other people in the same village all used it. "Your family is so lucky to be chosen by the king", looking at Liu Ji with envy or jealousy.
Liu Ji didn't think it was such a coincidence. When he was about to ask again, his eldest brother Liu Bo came towards this direction.
Seeing his younger brother Liu Jizheng talking to fellow villagers, Uncle Liu shouted: "Ji, what are you doing there? There are guests at home, and you haven't gone home to entertain them."
Liu Ji had no choice but to press on with his plan to learn more about the situation from the people in the same village, and replied to his brother: "Brother, don't worry, I'll be back soon, I'll be back soon!"
After that, Liu Ji gave a warning to the people who followed him. With a look from the younger brother, the younger brothers hid all the weapons they had found, which were actually just kitchen knives and axes.
Seeing Liu Ji with a group of younger brothers, Uncle Liu frowned and said: "Ji, the person who came to our house this time is the Xianyang envoy, who came on the order of the king, you..."
< br>Although he had conflicts with his eldest sister-in-law, Liu Ji respected his eldest brother and said with a smile: "Brother, don't worry about it. All the brothers heard that a noble envoy from Xianyang has come to our family. They have never seen a noble person from Xianyang, so they came here specially in the hope of getting some nobility."
After hearing Liu Ji's explanation, Uncle Liu didn't think much of it. He asked, "In that case, come home with me quickly, and don't let Xianyang's noble envoy stay for a long time."
Glancing at Liu Ji and his younger brothers, Uncle Liu noticed that Liu Ji was back, but Liu Jiao who went to call Liu Ji was missing. He nodded tacitly to Liu Ji, and the two brothers walked back home.
While walking, Liu Ji asked in a low voice: "Brother, why did the noble envoy from Xianyang come to our house? How many people are there in them?"
Uncle Liu whispered back: "They say they are from Xianyang. The king will be called the emperor soon and will celebrate with all the people. Special people will go to Xianyang to watch the ceremony. Twenty-three people from our family happened to be selected. "
Twenty-three people?
Liu Ji estimated in his mind that if he could deal with them, even if he couldn't deal with them, escaping from these people would not be a big problem. These people came from Xianyang and were certainly not as familiar with the surroundings of Peixian County as he was. Once they got into the mountains, I didn't believe they could catch up.
However, Liu Ji did not want to use this method until the most critical moment.
Because once he does this, he will be wanted and will have to hide in Tibet in the future.
This is not the end of the Qin Dynasty. The Qin Dynasty has just unified the world and its prestige has reached its peak in the world. Except for a few people, no one will think that this behemoth will collapse in more than ten years. This also includes Liu Ji.
Standing at the lower reaches of history, one can easily see the various shortcomings and shortcomings of the Qin Dynasty, and know that if it is not corrected, it will only have a life span of more than ten years, but people like Liu Ji who stand in history do not know this .
Just like a ghost, in the 1970s and 1980s, how many people thought it would disintegrate?
Uncle Liu knew his younger brother very well and knew what Liu Ji was thinking about, so he whispered: "Ji, don't mess around!"
Liu Ji nodded: "Brother, don't worry. I have my own plans.”
The Liu family heard footsteps coming, Zhenghe. Jiao Li and Liu Xuan, the magistrate of Peixian County, looked at each other and said, "Ji must be back. The envoy will wait for a moment, so let him..."
Before Liu Xuan finished speaking, Jiao Li He smiled and said, "No need to trouble Grand Duke. Since the great talent Liu Ji has returned, we will take the initiative to welcome him."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiao Li stood up and left the living room with the magistrate of Pei County, Liu Xuan and others.
As soon as they arrived at the gate of Liu's house, everyone saw Liu Ji who had returned with Uncle Liu, and the group of younger brothers behind Liu Ji.
Seeing that Liu Ji came back with a group of younger brothers, Jiao Li probably guessed what was going on, and thought to himself: 'Everyone says Liu Ji is idle and achieves nothing, but he can make so many people Follow him, this person is extraordinary. What the king said is true, Liu Ji has great talent and is a legacy of the world! '
Actually, Ying Zheng wanted to send Meng Yi, who knew Liu Ji's identity, to invite him, but Meng Yi had more important things to do and couldn't come, and he couldn't send those chamberlains and maids who knew Liu Ji's identity. If these people defect after leaving the palace, the existence of Li Nian and the history Li Nian told will definitely cause chaos in the world.
Ying Zheng could only choose a group of people who did not know the subsequent history as envoys. He also made up a story that he was going to be the emperor and wanted to enjoy the people together, so he selected a group of people from all the people in the world to come to Xianyang to watch the ceremony. reason.
This reason is not false. It is true that he invited people to come to Xianyang to watch him call him emperor, but it is not just to have fun with these people.
Seeing that Liu Ji had brought a group of younger brothers back, Liu Xuan pretended to be displeased and said, "Shuzi, the envoy has been at home for a long time, why did he come back now?"
He cursed, Liu Xuan then introduced Liu Ji to Jiao Li: "Your Majesty, he is Liu Ji, the third son of the young man. He has nothing to do all day long. He should not be called the king's 'great talent' or 'legacy'."
Jiao Li said with a smile: "What did Taigong say? From Li's perspective, Brother Ji is indeed worthy of being called a 'great talent' and a 'legendary sage'. He is definitely not ordinary. It's just that we haven't met him from time to time in the past. If we do, he will definitely be called a 'great talent'." Shocking the world."
Liu Ji was very happy to hear this. Except for his younger brother, few people recognized him. Even his father and sister-in-law felt that he was not doing his job properly and was not welcome.
The envoy from Xianyang recognized him very much, saying that he was extraordinary and had never succeeded in the past, but he just didn't meet the right opportunity.
It seems that the Xianyang envoy may not really be here to cause trouble for his family. Could it be that he has wasted more than thirty years and that good things will really happen in the sky?
