Chapter 115 Invited to Xianyang (Lv Zhi’s family)
Little Han Xin and his mother embarked on a journey to Xianyang. In Shanfu County, Dang County, there was also a family on their way to Xianyang in a carriage.
I saw a dozen carriages driving on the road. The window of one of the carriages was opened, the curtain was lifted, and a beautiful woman appeared from it.
The woman first looked in front of her, then looked back at the county town where she had lived for many years, with confusion and confusion between her brows.
After so many years, I don’t know what the future will hold, nor when will I be able to return?
Maybe I will be locked in that deep palace compound for the rest of my life, never to come out again!
But the King of Qin already had so many beauties, why did he still fall in love with a country girl like her?
Although she thought she was born well, she never thought she was the most beautiful woman in the world and could compare with the stunning beauties from the Seven Kingdoms.
Thinking of King Qin, the woman's face was filled with expectations and a little uneasiness, plus some shame from her daughter's family, and her face could not help but be dyed with two haloes of color.
Beside the woman sat a younger girl.
Seeing the blush on her sister's face, the girl joked in a small voice: "Sister, are you thinking about that person again?"
The woman immediately turned her head, glared at the girl, and scolded in a low voice. : "Don't talk nonsense. If outsiders know, how will I be seen by others? And the matter has not been decided yet, who knows?"
The girl pouted and whispered: "What's undecided? The king sent someone to invite our family to Xianyang to watch the ceremony. If it wasn't because of my sister, what else could it be?"
Hearing the girl's words, The woman also began to think deeply: Yes, the king sent an envoy to invite their family. If it weren't for her, what else could be the reason?
Except for her, there is nothing else worthy of the king’s attention in their family.
Moreover, what the messenger said at that time was "invite Lu Pheasant's family", which meant that the king would send the invitation entirely because of her, Lu Pheasant, and had nothing to do with the rest of the Lu family.
But why the world-famous King Qin knew about her, the woman couldn't figure it out.
All this may not be revealed until Xianyang, but according to her judgment, this matter is definitely not a disaster.
The woman did not reject the possibility of serving the King of Qin, and even looked forward to it.
That is the Lord of Qin. He is now the only king in the world. There are many women in the world who want to serve but cannot, but she has the opportunity.
‘I wonder what the King of Qin looks like, is he as scary as the rumors say? I heard that he is much older than me. Can I please him? ’
‘There are so many beautiful women around him. What should I do if he gets tired of me in the future? ’
Although she hasn’t arrived in Xianyang yet, the woman has already begun to think about it. The girl beside her is unaware of her sister’s sorrow and is still imagining the beautiful life after entering Xianyang.
Seeing the girl's carefree and chattering appearance, the woman couldn't help but give her a head blow. When she saw the girl looking at her with tears in her eyes and an unhappy face, the woman suddenly became happy.
Ever since the messenger came to their home to inform them of King Qin’s invitation, apart from her father, this girl was the happiest.
Her father felt that he had finally achieved his goal by letting her marry a noble man.
Given the woman's age, she could have been married a few years ago, but her father believed that she was different from ordinary women and was rare. She must marry a very good husband, so he never let her get married. It's been delayed until now.
That day, the envoy from the King of Qin came to the door and told his family that they were invited to Xianyang to watch the ceremony. My father was so happy that he stayed up all night.
Isn’t it just for this moment that he doesn’t want to marry her off hastily?
Is there a greater nobleman in the world than King Qin?
The whole family was immersed in the joy that she might marry the King of Qin, but the woman was still awake. She felt that there was something fishy about the matter. The King of Qin might have sent the invitation because of her, but he did not necessarily want to marry her. , the matter has not yet been decided, the father and the little sister were happy too early.
But as a woman, she could not resist her father or the King of Qin, so she could only watch the situation change quietly.
However, if the King of Qin didn't want to marry her and invite her family to Xianyang, what was his purpose? Is it really just to watch the ceremony? With a little sadness and a little expectation, the woman followed the carriage from Shanfu to Xianyang. The carriage was bumpy. Who knows what the future will bring?
Sishui County, several knights are running on the road.
After confirming that there was no one in front of them and no one following behind them, several knights got into a dense forest.
"Brother is back, how did your inquiry go?"
Meng Tian casually touched the sweat on his forehead, threw it to the ground, and then said: "I have lived up to my trust, I have inquired. Here we are, that Xiang clan is really brave!”
Don’t wait for Meng Yi to ask. , Meng Tian already said: "After the fall of the Chu Kingdom, they dared to hide everywhere and openly appear everywhere."
After hearing this, Meng Yi sighed: "Sishui is originally the land of Chu, and the Xiang family He is also a prominent family in the Chu State. Even though the Chu State has been destroyed, his prestige in Chu Land remains unchanged."
Meng Yi thought of what he heard from Li Nian and said: "This also shows that we only captured the Chu land, but did not control it. Otherwise, how could the Xiang family dare to be so bold?"
Meng Tian He sneered and said: "But I don't believe that the Xiang family can escape from the hands of you and my brothers this time. That Xiang family The clan is currently in the prime minister's position, and there is no cover-up at all. It is said that when someone in the county has a funeral, they will ask Xiang Liang to be the host. What a great reputation!"
Leading the army for many days! , Meng Yi and Meng Tian have rushed to Sishui County, and are now in a dense forest only more than a hundred miles away from Xiangxiang.
Meng Tianhui returned from abroad, and it was he who went to find out the location of the Xiang family in person.
They traveled thousands of miles from Xianyang just to catch the Xiang clan by surprise. They must first accurately locate the Xiang clan. In fact, when they were marching on their way, the brothers had already sent people to Xiaxiang to conduct reconnaissance. However, Meng Tian still went there in person.
The inquiring process went extremely smoothly, so smoothly that even Meng Tian felt angry.
Because the Xiang clan has no cover at all, you can find out where the Xiang clan is just by asking someone.
This is a typical example of not being afraid of Da Qin’s meeting to settle accounts and deal with them, the remnants of the Six Kingdoms: We are just jumping around under your eyes, Da Qin, what’s going on, what’s going on?
At the same time, it also means that Da Qin has basically lost control of places like Sishui County. The local officials do not take Da Qin to heart at all. Otherwise, the Xiang family would never dare to show off like this, even if they hide like rats. in front of people.
“Get the map!”
Meng Yi asked someone to get the map and asked: "Brother, where is the Xiang clan stationed?"
Meng Tian circled a place on the map: "It's right here. I've seen it myself. , it is indeed the residence of the Xiang clan. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack due to the secret of military tactics. But the place is not big, and even if there are hidden troops, they will not exceed three thousand. "
Speaking of this, Meng Tian frowned and then said: "I'm afraid there is a secret way. If so, it will be troublesome."
Meng Yi also looked serious, he knew more than his brother Meng Tian , the king sent these two brothers here, seemingly for the Xiang family, but in fact they were mainly for Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew, or to be more precise, they were for Xiang Yu alone.
If there was a secret passage in the Xiang clan's residence, Xiang Yu could escape...
Just thinking about it gave Meng Yi a headache.
