Chapter 459: Big Husband
"Brother Ji, what are you doing here? Why do you have to shave the beautiful beard (rán) that you have raised for so many years? ”
Lu Juan was about to kneel down for Liu Ji, and he didn't know what hysteria this big brother had, sweeping the snow on Beimen Street, and was fortunate to see the emperor's car and the honor of the three generals, and they all felt that they had gained knowledge. Only Liu Ji, who was smiling before, seemed to have seen a ghost, and when he returned to the humble residence of the widows, he slashed a copper knife on the couch and asked Lu Juan to help him shave his beard!
"Didn't you see the hell and get hysterical?"
Liu Ji heran: "That's right, I'm a ghost, I'm still a black ghost." ”
Liu Ji was sure that he didn't look bad, although the man had a little beard, wore a suit of armor, and wore a beautiful crown of young birds, which was majestic, but his appearance was no different from back then-Qin officials with such a dark appearance are rare in this world!
Against the backdrop of snow, it is even more eye-catching, like a black charcoal in a snowdrift.
More than seven years ago, Liu Ji was still a diner under Zhang Er, and in Huangchengtou outside, he and the black-faced Qin official met each other, both of them were fierce and inward, and they were about to swing their blades at each other. But at that time, Wai Huang Qingxia had already been defeated, and Liu Ji also killed a Qin pawn, which was worthy of Zhang Er's wine and meat, so he shouted "protect Zhang Jun" and ran away. (Chapters 125,126)
After Liu Ji's prodigal son turned around, he tried to be the pavilion chief in his hometown, and the experience of Waihuang was buried deep in his heart.
However, when he saw it today, he realized that the person who confronted him that day was the famous "General Wei" in recent years!
What frightened him was that this lieutenant general actually looked at him several times, and when his eyes met, Liu Ji broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, the convoy was moving fast, and behind Heifu was the emperor's Jin Gen car, and there was no way to stop, so Liu Ji took the opportunity to hide in the crowd......
"Could it be that he recognized me too?"
Thinking of this, Liu Ji is not good, he was a fellow party of Zhang Er, resisted the Qin army, and killed Qin pawns, if he is investigated, he will be regarded as a rebel and killed, and the whole family will sit together, it is not impossible!
"No, you can't tell him to find me!"
They are widowers, there are soldiers watching, and they are still in the pass, and it is impossible to run, so Liu Jixin is crossed, and he wants Lu Juan to shave his beard for himself.
"Why do you want to torture yourself for no reason......"
Lu Juan is still puzzled, in this year, the hair is a very important thing, even if he is dead, the hair of the deceased must be buried in the ridge alone, or put into a small bag and put in the coffin.
Liu Ji's beautiful beard is his proudest symbol, even if he is poor in the past, he will maintain his beard well, wash it with water every day, and smear some oil from time to time, so the people of Pei County also respect him as an "elder".
Besides, shaving and shaving hair are humiliating punishments. Shaving is called "resistance", shaving off sideburns is called "finishing", and shaving the head is called "shaved", just like the later generations of labor prisoners, who also shaved their heads, and if they are stained with one of the three types, they can't raise their heads in front of people.
Not only that, but even pulling the other party's beard during a fight is considered a violation of Qin law: if you tie up the other party during the fight, and then pull out his beard and eyebrows, you will be punished to be a city dan afterwards. Lu Juan was afraid that if he cut off Liu Ji's beard, he would be said to be a private fight afterwards, so he was convicted, so no matter what Liu Ji said, he didn't dare to do it.
"What a shaft!"
Liu Ji was furious, and seeing that Lu Juan was timid and afraid, he simply snatched the knife and cut it himself by the pond that had condensed into ice.
After making up his mind, he moved quickly, and after dividing the beautiful beard that he had raised for more than ten years by two, he shaved it all fine, leaving only a short beard, and trimmed the beard on his lips, turning the previous thick beard into a short sagittal beard.
"How's that going? Do you still recognize me? ”
With a beard and without a beard, with a beard and a mustache, people's temperament is very different, Lu Juan and others looked left and right, and felt that Liu Ji was not as strong as he was, and they all said: "I went back to Peixian, if I don't say it, I'm afraid no one will be able to recognize Brother Ji." ”
Liu Ji was overjoyed, and Lu Juan said: "If the official asks Brother Ji why he shaves, how should he explain it?" ”
"Let's just say that after I returned to Guanzhong from Saibei, I had lice, itched uncomfortably, and cut my thick beard in a fit of anger!"
Liu Ji only hopes now, in this way, even if the lieutenant general wants to turn back to find him, he will not be able to start, after all, from such a distance, his most obvious sign is this thick beard......
……
The first day after that was uneventful, even if the little officials who took care of them saw Liu Ji suddenly shaving, they just asked casually, and they didn't take it seriously. only urged the people of Pei County to work and send firewood to the military operations on the outskirts of Xianyang.
But the next day, Zhang Han's younger brother, Zhang Ping, a young official, was entrusted by the lieutenant of Beidi County to come to the military camp of the widow to drink a bowl of hot soup......
"These people, General Wei is of ......great use," he said mysteriously.
Xianyang Sikong was puzzled, but it was not good to ask more. Naturally, it was impossible for him to personally go to the stinky relocation pile to find people, and it was too laborious to check the inspection and inheritance of tens of thousands of people one by one, and the faces of many people were not clearly registered. Let a few of his hundred stone officials do this, and deal with it casually.
The hundred stone officials took matters into their own hands, and went down to the various camps for a circle, and asked all the widowers to assemble and call away all the bearded people they saw.
Peixian widowers were no exception, just when Liu Ji and others were pushing a heavy cart and walking on the muddy road, they were stopped by a hundred stone officials, and after a glance, they saw that no one was a "beautiful beard", so they waved their hands and let them go......
Another day passed, and the more than 100 people with beautiful beards came back safe and sound, and they were all inexplicably excited, saying that they had been received by the Captain of the Northland.
The general didn't do anything strange to them, but only praised everyone for their thick beards, all of them were first-class strong men, and invited everyone to have a full meal, and then let them go back to the camp.
But in this way, the rumors of "Beidi Wei is a beautiful man" have also spread in Xianyang......
The widowers did not think badly, because although Kuroo was young, his reputation was already very loud, especially among the low-level widowers who came to serve in Kansai. After all, looking at the entire empire, there is only one person who can climb from the head of Qiantou to the lesser in ten years.
Heifu's promotion path has become a ready-made advertisement for the military merit system: the clan must not belong to the clan if it has no merit, and the fierce general must be sent to the army!
In Daqin, only about merit, not about origin! Even if you hatch in the chicken nest, as long as you have the talent of an eagle, you can fly on the high branches!
Zhou Bo, a native of Lianpei County, went to Biansai, and after listening to the deeds of Heifu, he also had the idea of "meritorious service", which was almost impossible in the previous Chu State, coupled with the glory of riding in front of the royal car that day, everyone was excited to see Heifu.
Lu Juan was very sorry when he heard about this: "If Brother Ji doesn't shave his beard, he can also see General Wei......"
Liu Ji glared at Lu Juan and told him to shut up.
Luckily escaped, Liu Ji was glad in his heart, fortunately he was clever, but at the same time, there was an inexplicable sense of grievance......
He thought that in a few years, he had gone from a ranger who was spurned by everyone to a ranger who was spurned by everyone, mixed into the system, became a pavilion chief, and became a character, and people from all over the country had to respect him for three points, which was very good.
Unexpectedly, Heifu climbed faster than him, how did the little official who had to risk the arrow stone in person become a member of the court and a feudal official in seven or eight years?
"The way he looks, even if he sells his ass, no one wants it......" Liu Ji thought vulgarly.
People are more angry than people! At the head of the city that day, Liu Ji even had the opportunity to kill Heifu, but now, it was a difference between cloud and mud, and he had to rely on shaving to protect himself from being recognized and lost his head......
He was not reconciled!
Liu Ji's heart was sour, but he comforted himself again: "My brother Liu Jiao said to me that the body of a small insect like an inchworm (huò) is bent in order to elongate; The body of a giant creature like a dragon and snake is dormant in order to continue to survive. ”
"Big husband, you can bend and stretch!"
Although Liu Ji is humble, although he is nearly forty years old, he has achieved nothing, and deep down, he also regards himself as a dragon and snake!
At this time, Lu Juan was still discussing with the people in Pei County, saying that General Wei was the head of Qian, and he made meritorious contributions all the way to the throne, and opened up the outside for the emperor.
They all felt that General Wei was a great husband and an object of emulation for my generation......
"It's not really a big man."
Liu Ji was originally pretending to sleep against the wall, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but interject.
"What does Brother Ji think, what kind of husband is it?" Lu Juan and others said curiously.
Liu Ji stopped talking again, continued to close his eyes, and pretended to snore like thunder.
"Asleep? Fang is a dream, right? "The Peixian widows didn't care.
In the dark, after everyone fell asleep, Liu Ji opened his eyes again, and they were bright and clear.
"yes, it's a dream talk......"
He habitually wanted to brush his thick beard, but what he touched was a short mane that pierced his hands.
The experience of that day was like a dream, first a nightmare of being frightened by a few glances at him by the Black Husband, but then it was a dream of witnessing a miracle......
Not to mention the majesty of the emperor's leading guards, they will ride thousands of horses, when Heifu and others drove forward, Qin Shi Huang's golden root car really drove by, with countless mountain calls, ten miles range, more than 100,000 people, widowers, and soldiers along the way were like wheat fields blown by the wind, all of them fell down!
Liu Ji is also one of the wheat stalks.
He peeked at the emperor and saw that the emperor was driving a huge carriage pulled by six pure white horses, and the carriage was so tightly knit that he could not see the figure of Qin Shi Huang.
But even so, Liu Ji still saw a lot.
He saw the glory of the Yellow House Zuo 纛 (dào).
Qin Shi Huang is the only emperor in this land, although he does not say a word or show his face in the whole process, he can make thousands of people cheer for him, go crazy for him, and be the chief for him, and he is in awe and awe.
Even the three generals who commanded thousands of troops, to put it bluntly, were just pioneers who opened the way in front, and those civil and military officials were also the stars surrounding the emperor.
Liu Ji's eyes were almost blinded by the dazzling sun, and he even forgot all about his previous fear......
The authority of the world is concentrated in the car, in the palm of the emperor's hand.
As soon as he moved, countless people died for him, sweeping Liuhe, and no one could stop him!
Liu Ji, who used to think that he was too powerful, was shattered in front of the blade of the Qin army, and was constrained by the emperor's decree.
The state of Chu, where Liu Ji had lived for more than 30 years, was devastated after the emperor's order.
The emperor set his eyes on the distance, and the generals like Heifu were about to sleep at night and go to the land of quicksand.
The emperor beckoned, and Liu Ji and other tens of thousands of people came all the way to Xianyang and went to Saibei.
It seems that the whole world revolves around him alone.
That's right, he and Heifu are different from each other, but when Heifu compares with Qin Shi Huangdi, isn't it the light of fireflies, competing with the sun?
When he was young, Liu Ji admired the righteous and thin Yuntian Wei Gongzi Wuji.
And now, Liu Ji found that he had a new object of worship!
That's Qin Shi Huangdi!
Except for the emperor, including Heifu, including Liu Ji himself, they are all ants! What's the difference between high and low?
"A real big man, too!"
