Chapter 287: Crane Crown
"The rate chief is back!"
At night, with Ji Ying's shout, the footsteps of the Anlu camp surged, and everyone who was still absent-minded to do their own things flocked to the gate, just in time to see Heifu with the assistance of the two CRRC guards, returning by car, stopping at the gate of the camp, the two of them moved down a heavy big wooden box, and said goodbye to him.
Ji Ying, Dongmen Leopard and others rushed out, surrounded Heifu, greeted him as a hero, and invited him to sit on the table at the gate of the camp, and then pinched his shoulders and legs, all of them laughed very flatteringly.
Heifu couldn't help but laugh: "What are you doing here?" ”
"The chief is the only one in Anlu County who has been summoned by the king, which is amazing."
Ji Ying carefully dusted off Heifu, as if he was a treasure that had been opened by King Qin.
Today, just seeing the king's car and figure more than ten steps apart, these soldiers and soldiers from Anlu mud legs feel that they can go home and blow for a lifetime. And Heifu is even worse, his name entered the ears of the king, and he was summoned by the king of Qin, what a glory!
So, everyone asked nonsense, it was nothing more than the previous questions, what did King Qin look like? Is it three feet tall, the upper lip is the sky, and the lower lip is the earth, Bu Cheng also said that he has been looking up today and seeing that there are auspicious clouds in the sky above Huaiyang that have been gathering for a long time......
"The appearance of the king......"
When they finished asking questions in a mess, Heifu pretended to be mysterious and said, "The face of a king can not be described in ordinary words, I cannot say it, and you must not listen to it." ”
The crowd couldn't help but be disappointed, and at this time, Liham also led someone to lift the heavy wooden box at the gate of the camp and asked, "Chief, what is this?" Could it be the king's gift? ”
"It was the king who gave An Lu Quanrate, open it!"
With Heifu's permission, everyone opened the wooden box, but saw that there were pieces of gold cakes neatly stacked inside, even though they had just participated in the looting of the treasury of the Shouchun Chu Palace, and increased their knowledge, but when they saw so much gold, they still couldn't help but gasp!
"So many, I'm afraid of a thousand taels, right?"
Gold is the currency of the Qin State, and Ji Ying and others still have a concept of it that is commonly used in counties and counties.
Heifu smiled: "There are a hundred eridium!" ”
One eridium is twenty taels, and one hundred eridium is two thousand taels! When they searched the treasury of the palace of the king of Chu, because they couldn't take too much, Heifu only got ten yi, and among the rest of the people, the military officials took one or two yi, and the soldiers only had ant-nose money, but now the king of Qin gave one hundred yi, which can be described as a big deal.
"The king said, in the battle of Chu, An Lu led a lot of meritorious service, and won the Xiang Yan Shuai Banner, he once said that those who won the head of Xiang Yan and Xiong Qi were rewarded with 100 gold, although Xiang Yan's head was gone, but the merit of capturing the flag was no less than beheading, so he still gave 100 gold and 100 Yi......"
100,000 yuan, that's 500,000 dollars! Even if everyone shared it equally, they would get 500 yuan, which was a lot of money, and everyone rejoiced and congratulated each other.
They were all immersed in the joy of gold, but the attentive Leham found that the crown that Heifu was wearing was different from when he went......
When I went, I still had a long crown on a double board, but when I came back, it became a ring without a red (ruí), with the green system as the silk, and the "crane crown" on the left and right! ”
"The captain has been promoted again!?" He was amazed and delighted.
Only then did everyone notice that the bird was a kind of wild pheasant, with black fluff on the top of its head, snow-white ear feathers, extending backwards in bundles and protruding behind its head, like a pair of white horns, looking murderous. Although its wings are short and it is not good at flying, its red legs are thick and powerful, and it walks with its head held high, its tail cocked, and it seems to be ready to fight to the death against an invading enemy.
This bird is the "desperate Saburo" among the birds, and it fights and never retreats. It is said that King Wuling of Zhao admired his fighting spirit so much that he decorated the crown with the tail feathers of the crane and gave it to the brave warriors. When he arrived in the Qin Kingdom, it became a crown modeled after the forked ear feathers on the top of the bird's head, and it was not a crown unless a high lord, that is, five doctors and above could wear it.
Heifu smiled and said: "However, when the king saw that I was right, and heard that I was already a public driver, and I had made some merits in Huainan, he said that there was no need to wait for Chu to destroy the merits, and gave me the title of the five doctors in advance." ”
In the Qin State, there is often a theory, that is, it is impossible for a scholar to obtain the title of public passenger or above in his entire life, that is, "the civil lord is just a public passenger!" ”
The five doctors of the ninth level are equivalent to the "upper doctors" in the Spring and Autumn Period, which is the ceiling of the title, and the left and right chiefs are counted as "Qing" ......
Therefore, Heifu has touched the highest point in the eyes of ordinary people, which makes them breathtaking, but Liham and others are not only admired, but also admired, because they know that Heifu's ambition is like General Wang, Fenghou!
Unexpectedly, Heifu didn't finish speaking: "The king heard that I was going to turn twenty-two this year, and he also sighed and said that he was also at this age, and he was crowned in Yongcheng Qinian Palace, so on a whim, he gave the crown on the spot, and put on a ...... for me with his own hands."
Hearing that the King of Qin not only bestowed the knighthood, but also crowned Heifu with his own hands, everyone quieted down, and the camp in Anlu was silent, and after half a ring, the screams like Ji Ying killing pigs sounded.
"It's over!"
Everyone turned their heads to take a look, but saw Ji Ying kneeling on the ground, his hands trembling, and he wailed exaggeratedly: "This crown was added by the king himself for the chief, but I, but when I sat down with the chief, I didn't touch it very much, my dirty hands, I haven't washed them after going to the toilet, I should really cut it!" ”
Everyone laughed, but Liham felt that things were not so simple, and asked curiously, "What did the chief say to the king?" ”
"It's nothing."
Heifu couldn't help but sigh, Qin Wangzheng really lived up to the praise of "being able to get down to people", it was really a stake to win people's hearts, and he changed anyone, and he was given such a bounty, knighted, and crowned in person, and he was already in tears, and the chief executive died.
This was something that Heifu did not expect, and when he was in the king's tent, he was indeed a little excited, and after he came out, his mind was still not calm.
But he has calmed down, and he will feel that he will not be able to hand over his life to King Qin. So he said: "The king asked me about my origin, and I heard that I was the head of a soldier Wu Qian, starting from the pavilion chief, and gradually promoted to the current county lieutenant and chief, I couldn't help but sigh with emotion What Han Fei said. ”
"What?" Everyone couldn't wait to hear it.
Heifu said: "The king said, the prime minister must start from the state department, and the fierce general must be sent from the army." Then the king suddenly looked at General Wang and Captain Li, and asked me with a smile, have you ever thought about becoming a general? ”
"How does the chief answer?" Everyone's heads came to the front of Heifu, their eyes wide open, and their ears pricked up.
"I said to the king, of course I want to!"
"Although Heifu is now as humble as dust, ten or twenty years later, he is also willing to follow the example of Li Duwei and General Wang, for the great general, to make meritorious contributions, and then inscribe the tomb to say 'The Tomb of General Qin Heifu', this Heifu's ambition is also!"
Heifu remembered that he straightened his waist at that time and said a sentence to the King of Qin, which everyone knows in later generations, and it is also a politically correct quote in the context of the Qin State!
"A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier!"
……
"Therefore, those who have ambitions will want to be generals, looking for marquis, and those who do not want to be marquises will have ......short ambitions."
On the other side, in the king's tent, Qin Wangzheng was still chanting Heifu's words, and praised Li You: "What a high-minded little leader, Li You, you have a good vision, this son will take time, or he may also be a general." ”
Heifu didn't lose Li You's face, nor did he act too deliberately, and when he saw King Qin, he couldn't wait to pounce on him, forgetting who was his benefactor. This made Li You very satisfied, so he smiled and said: "Probably the idea that came to my heart when I saw General Wang having to seal the Neihou today, my eyes were hot for a while." ”
King Qin looked at Wang Jian again: "Before General Wang came in, he complained to me that he was old, and he wanted Meng Wu and others to accept military affairs and go back to Guanzhong to retire. ”
"The minister is indeed old, and he can't compare to the determination of young people."
Wang Jian didn't mind at all, after destroying the Chu State, his burden was gone, and he behaved very naturally, much easier than before the expedition, and offered to hand over the right to the army, but the King of Qin did not accept it, and insisted that he finish the Chu State.
Between this exchange and push, there is an implied game between the monarch and the minister.
King Qin wanted to show that he was not suspicious of employing people, and Wang Jian wanted to show that he was not greedy for military power.
Wang Jian said meaningfully: "Since the generals in the army can have this ambition, why should the remnants of Chu, Liaodong, Daidi, and Qi be unhappy? The ambition of the ancestors and kings of the Qin State to dominate the world cannot be realized? ”
Does he really care about this princehood? Hey, Wang Jian wished in his heart that there were more princes and generals under King Qin, and it would save them from the high ground of the royal family......
The two of them tacitly stopped the topic, and Li You hurriedly said: "The king is going to inspect the three armies tomorrow, why don't you let Heifu and Nanjun soldiers practice the military ball for the king?" During the period when our army and the Chu people had been holding for a long time, the soldiers used this as a play, which was different from the fancy Qi and Chu Juju, but had a few more killing intentions, and the soldiers could practice command and trap ...... battle."
The King of Qin did not allow it, seeing that the night was dark, but the King of Qin, who had been on the road for a day, was not tired at all, and was about to discuss with Wang Jian about the security situation in Huaibei and how to continue to eliminate the remnants of Chu and seize Jiangdong and other places, but Zhao Gao hurriedly entered.
"King, it's an urgent letter sent by General Huainanmeng......"
Li You's eyelids jumped, for fear that when Wang Jian was not there, Huainan had a recurrence, but Wang Jian was calm, as Mengwu's boss, colleague, and opponent for many years, he knew very well that this person's use of troops was no less than that of his father Mengqiu, and the places he had occupied would never be repeated.
"Or there is a change between Xiong Qi in Jiangdong and the remnants of the Chu State."
Sure enough, as Wang Jian expected, Qin Wangzheng glanced at the military report and sneered: "Mengwu reported that Xiang Rong and others lived in Huainan and supported Xiong Qi as the king......"
Everyone fell silent, Li You didn't dare to speak directly, as the son-in-law of King Qin, he knew very well that what King Qin hated the most was betrayal!
And Changping Jun Xiong Qi is the one who betrayed the king recently!
Changping Jun grew up with the king, he was once a confidant and a minister, and he was a minister for ten years.
The king's eastward tour of Huaiyang may also be related to this knot.
"Lone, the uncle who is a talented man, always can't forget the past, rebelled against Qin and attached to Chu, wanting to take back all the things that originally belonged to him, but in Lone's opinion...... It's just that the beast learns the appearance of a man, puts on a placket, wears a crown belt, and adds a smile to his ears, and he can't save Jing Chu, who is gone, but just martyred with it. ”
After some emotion, King Qin didn't bother to mention this matter for half a sentence, but smiled at Wang Jian and said: "General Wang, those who want to forge ahead, first and rear, you will set up a new county garrison in Huaibei, and all the situation will be alone!" ”
