In Shu at the end of autumn, it is extremely beautiful.

Outside Yangping Pass, the north gate of Shu County, the forest gradually undergoes frost, the maple leaves are red, the green bars are golden, and the pines and cypresses are green...... Red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple, plus the white snow on the top of Shu Mountain in the distance, the blue sky of the clear sky, all kinds of colors.

Perhaps only by looking at the colorful autumn colors all day long, the weaver girls of the CD can spin the Shu brocade that everyone in the world admires.

The staff of Shu County Shouchang (è) also sent each other here to hold a farewell feast for their own monarch that no one wanted to hold. Everyone's faces were solemn, and they didn't seem to be very happy, and after the feast, one of them watched Heifu's cronies leave the table, and came to Chang Xiang and whispered to Chang Qi:

"Chang Jun, that black man's name is Qin Xiang, he is actually a Qin thief, if he enters the court, he will be harmed, I hope Chang Jun will not do it."

This person is Yan Jin, a staff member of Chang Yuan, one of the people who entered Xianyang on his behalf to negotiate matters to the north, and his ancestor was Yan Junji, the younger brother of King Qin Huiwen, who was also a distant clan.

"Yan Jin, don't talk nonsense!"

Chang Qian was taken aback, asked everyone to retreat, leaving only the personal guard Ji Xin, and reprimanded Yan Jindao:

"More than half a year ago, didn't you praise Heifu as a loyal man and advocate Shu County to turn its back from the north to the south?"

Yan Jinhong said: "That's because Hu Hai and Zhao Gao went against the grain and murdered Zhongliang, I thought that Heifu was a loyal minister, but he showed his true face after entering Xianyang, and Zhao Gao's generation is really the same raccoon dog!" ”

What's more, another member of their Yan clan will guard that Yan Qing was killed by Heifu's nephew and Xu Shu in Gusu, which made the Yan family, whose children are all over Shu, a thorn in their hearts.

He began to count the crimes of Heifu: "Dumping the property of the royal family, and fattening the soldiers, privately releasing prisoners, and buying people's hearts." Self-established as a regent, arbitrary, not a new emperor for a long time, covetous......"

In short, the situation that the Northern Expeditionary Army, the prisoners and the late Qin people all liked to see, in Yan Jin's view, it was Heifu who exceeded the duty of the people, and it also greatly violated the interests of the royal family and the princess!

In the forces of Shu County, Yan Jin is not the only one who holds this view.

As early as more than a month ago, after learning of Heifu's attitude: "How can there be a person who does not live in the capital of the country and is the right prime minister", the staff had a disagreement on whether to go north at Heifu's invitation.

One faction believes that this meeting of heroes and giants can play a role in stabilizing the political situation. The other faction thinks that this is a trap set by Heifu, and wants to use this to detain Chang Jun, thinking that Chang Jun should not leave Shu County lightly and enter the land of tigers and wolves.

Chang Qian also spoke for Heifu: "The delay in establishing a monarch is waiting for me to take my little grandson to the north." In any case, Yu must not lose his trust with Marquis Wu Zhong. ”

Yan Jin thought: "It was Heifu who broke his trust first, and he promised that if the prince went north, he could be the right prime minister, but in fact it was a trap to imprison the prince!" Isn't this a self-unloading soldier and putting his life in the hands of others? ”

Chang Jun shook his head: "If I retreat here, the Marquis of Wuzhong will be furious, Xianyang and CD will be enemies of each other, and eventually bring swords and soldiers to Shu County." ”

It's not that Chang Yi didn't think about refusing to go north, but he was more worried about the consequences of falling out with Heifu.

"Hit it!"

Yan Jin was not intimidated: "Shu County is not small, there are hundreds of thousands of people, tens of thousands of armor soldiers, plus thousands of miles of fertile fields, abundant grain, enough to defend itself!" ”

Chang Qian frowned: "You horseman, how do you know what the general trend is, with the power of Shu County, how can you compete with Tai for half the world?" What's more, Bajun and Hanzhong are all in the hands of General Wuzhong Hou, do you want me to repeat Chen Zhuang's mistakes? ”

Chang Yan as the county guard of Shu, is familiar with the history of Shu, knowing that after King Qin Huiwen destroyed Shu, considering that Shu has been independent of the Central Plains for more than 1,000 years, the language and public sentiment are completely different, and initially did not directly place the county, but named the son of the king of Shu Tongguo as the marquis of Shu, with Chen Zhuang as the minister of Shu.

However, only six years later, Chen Zhuang probably saw that Shuzhong was separated from the mountains and rivers of Qindi, and the plank road had not even been built, and the messenger could only run back and forth in four months......

But this rebellion supported by the Shu people ended hastily, because the Qin State still firmly occupied Hanzhong and Ba County, so Gan Mao, Zhang Yi, Sima Cuo, and Zhang Ruo each attacked Shu from Han and Ba, as long as they did not control those dangers, Shuzhong was a flat river. Seeing a defeat in front of him, Chen Zhuang was afraid and killed the Marquis of Shu to surrender, so he punished Chen Zhuang and exterminated the Kaiming clan.

Since then, Shu County has completely canceled feudalism, and the special committee has been governed by the county, and there has been no turmoil, but under the management of Zhang Ruo, Li Bing, and Chang Yuan, it has become a well-known granary.

"Hanzhong is the throat of Shu County, the opportunity to survive, if there is no Hanzhong, there will be no Shu. Ba County is also the lip and tooth of Shu County, and the three Ba are sluggish, which is the arm of Shu. ”

Chang Jun knew very well that when Heifu had entered Xianyang and was prosperous in the Qin State during the reign of King Qin Hui, Shu County alone was no opponent.

What's more, from beginning to end, he never thought of separating one side and claiming the king's hegemony......

But Yan Jin regarded Chang Xiang as the last hope of the righteous surname Sheji, and said repeatedly:

"Chen Zhuang rebelled against Qin and violated the righteousness, so the army was defeated and died."

"But Chang Jun is really a loyal minister and a pure minister of Great Qin, and the great righteousness is in your hands, as long as Chang Jun immediately appoints Xiao Gongsun as the emperor, and is loyal to the officials and people of Great Qin, he will gather to respond, and he will obey the grain!"

"What!?" Chang was frightened by the staff's bold idea, and took a step back and sat on the couch.

Yan Jin was completely immersed in his own thoughts: "The main forces of Heifu are all in Guanzhong and Nanyang, and the rear is empty, and there is no food for a long time. The first step, Chang Jun established the emperor, after Feng Zhengshuo, he was the prime minister of Daqin, sent the elite soldiers in Shu, and ordered Ji Xin to seize the Bajun building ship in the name of transporting grain, and then he could go down to the Three Gorges, according to Jiangling. ”

"Summoning Shu County to the west of Diqiang, the southern Dan, plough and other departments, Xu with gold silk, they can help me rebel! Linjiangnan's meeting, relying on the solidity of Wushan, building a fortress to hold on, spreading Jingzhou, north of Changsha, looking at the wind. ”

"In the second step, the minister is willing to pretend to be a prince and go north, lead the elite troops to seize Hanzhong, and consolidate the gate of Shu County. In addition, the lieutenant of Shu County is already in Longxi, and Zhao Tuo will go with him, as long as he sends a lobbyist to persuade Zhao Tuo to do things with us, Longyou will surrender himself! ”

In this way, in the hands of Heifu, Taiban County will be lost, he will be forced by the Six Kingdoms in the east, the Xiongnu in the north, and lack of food, and will be trapped in Guanzhong. When Chang Jun entered the customs, who would dare the people in Guanzhong not to eat pot pulp to welcome? ”

Chang Jun only felt strange, this Yan Jin has always been rude and reckless, but today he seems to have changed as a person, and he talks about the strategic head - if you don't think about it carefully, you really think that he has a point, with the crooked melon and jujube of the Shu soldiers, how to compete with the army of a hundred battles under the command of Heifu?

"Could it be ......"

Chang Qi was a little stunned, and asked rhetorically, "What about the Six Kingdoms?" I turned against Heifu, wouldn't the Six Nations be able to survive and even counterattack? ”

"And Fusu."

This is the most important news that Yan Jin heard after returning from Guanzhong:

"The minister listened to Xianyang someone say, the son of Fusu is not dead, in the spring of this year, the eldest son resurrected in Liaodong, Liaoxi, outside the East Hu, inside the Yan Dynasty, now there are 100,000 elite soldiers, rampant in the north. Chang Jun can send a messenger to go and join forces with him, which is enough to destroy the six kingdoms and wait for the world to be decided, or let the son let the father, make the eldest son the emperor, follow the cause of the first emperor, abolish the rebellion of the black man, and revitalize the law and discipline of the Great Qin, so that the Great Qin can be prosperous, and Chang Jun can also cover the ...... through the ages."

Before the words were finished, Chang Yan's face changed suddenly, and he pointed at Yan Jin and shouted: "Take him down!" ”

The pro-guard Ji Xin is a Shu person, with a thick beard and good martial arts, and immediately pressed Yan Jin on a case with several short soldiers who broke into the door.

"Chang Jun!"

Yan Ling's face turned red: "The ministers are all heartfelt words, if Chang Jun goes further, he will enter the territory of the black man, and he will be arrested, and it will be too late to regret it!" ”

"I often guard the county of Shu, follow the career of Li Bing's father and son, open water conservancy, dig wells and salt, cultivate and weave, and make Shu rich and safe."

"And the reason why I am willing to join hands with Heifu is that in addition to Hu Hai and Zhao Gao's perverse actions and corrupting the society, I also want to keep the Shu County safe, and I want to let this disintegrated Daqin end the war as soon as possible."

"But you, the erector, offer such a poisonous plan, if you act according to your plan, not only will Shu County be reduced to a mound and ruins, but it is not easy to rely on the troops of Marquis Wu Zhong to surrender without a fight, and the situation that has settled down will be chaotic again."

Chang Qi can imagine that Shu County, which has been stable for 80 years, will be burned by war again, countless farmlands will emit billowing smoke, prosperous CDs will be in tatters, and the white Shu brocade of the Weaver Girls will also be dyed a little scarlet......

More than 10 years of operation, in the end it was empty?

This was not what he wanted.

"The blood of the Qin people, whether it is the new Qin people or the old Qin people, has already shed enough......"

This is Yu Gong, Yu private, he is often someone who is enough to be among the court, ranked among the three dukes, and the generations are rich and noble, and the black man also has to respect three points, so why take the risk at this juncture? If you lose, you will be crushed and scolded for the ages, which is too costly.

The person who came up with this idea was either stupid or bad.

So he was often very angry and forced Yan Jindao:

"Do you still dare to claim to be the Great Qin Prince, after Yan Jun? Say, who taught you this kind of poisonous trick that makes your relatives hurt and your enemies are fast!? ”

Yan Jin had no choice but to admit: "Yes...... It's a guest in Xianyang. ”

"This person is designated as a spy of the Six Nations!"

Maybe it's the chess pieces planted by Kui Che and Fan Zeng.

Often biting his nails:

"This is to separate me and Marquis Wu Zhong, create civil strife, and continue the lives of the six countries......"

After this incident, is it time to speed up the north, relieve Heifu's suspicions, or wait?

Just as he was in trouble, a staff member hurriedly came to report, saying that a large army had come from outside the city and surrounded the pass!

Chang was shocked, and came to the pass with everyone to take a look, but saw thousands of torches burning around the pass, and the city was flooded.

A dusty chariot drove forward, with the word "Tao" flag floating on it, and a thin general bowed his hand towards the city, letting people pass the word.

"Medium...... Lieutenant Tao Xiao, on the orders of the regent, came to ...... Come and greet Chang Jun! ”
