Chapter 32: Twists and turns
For Lu Zhe, who is slowly adapting to his current life, there are too many things to think about. After talking with Xu Yang, he confirmed that this year is the twenty-sixth year of the First Emperor.
However, it is not of much use to know how many years Lu Dao is, he doesn't know how to calculate Lu Dao at all, so he doesn't know how many years BC the twenty-sixth year of the first emperor of Lu Dao is.
In fact, Lu Zhe's impression of the history of the Qin Dynasty is relatively vague except for a few major events, so it is useless to know how many years BC the Dao is currently in.
Grasping the pulse of the times is often the best opportunity for development, and I have forgotten where I heard this phrase, but it is applicable at all times.
Lu Zhe understands the current situation, and also knows the future trend of the Dao, and the rest is only to climb up, and this is precisely the most tangled and difficult place to start.
Lu Zhe fell asleep in his thoughts, and when he was awakened by Xu Yang, the sun had already set, and the entire camp was silent.
"Why is Brother Xian so tired?"
The package in Xu Yang's hand faintly exuded a fragrance, and he handed it out with a smile.
Because he was thinking too much about things, Lu Zhe, who had just woken up, only felt a splitting headache, and he waited a little unresponsively for more than ten seconds before taking the package, and when he opened it slightly, the smell of meat came to his nose.
It turned out to be a fragrant roast goose inside!
To be honest, the most unpleasant thing about Lu Zhe in this era is diet. Of course, it is not that the diet is bad, there are people who eat well and those who eat badly in any era, but the number of times they eat.
In the current meal, except for the big nobles who have the habit of eating three meals in the morning, noon, and evening, most people only eat two meals: morning food and night food. For a person who is used to eating three meals, even if so much time has passed, Lu Zhe still feels that it is really painful to eat only two meals!
Without unwrapping the package immediately, Lu Zhe glanced at the tent and found that the night eclipse was picked up by someone and placed next to the tent. Feeling that his stomach was a little sour because of hunger, he thought it would be better to drink some water before eating roast goose.
Xu Yang knew Lu Zhe's habits, and took the initiative to untie the water bag on his waist: "I know that the virtuous brother only drinks boiling water." ”
"Gollum-Gollum-" After a few mouthfuls, Lu Zhe finally sobered up, and was about to speak, and the curtain was opened.
The person who came was Li Liang, who was carrying a small basket.
Raising the basket and shaking it, Li Liang smiled and said, "The two brothers are really here." The sound of the porcelain colliding when shaking can be guessed that there must be a wine jar inside.
The small table was brought and the food and drinks were put on the table, and the three of them sat around as usual.
After a few glasses of wine, Li Liang's tone was a little excited: "Brother, is the news accurate?" ”
Xu Yang was reserved and bowed: "The seed father and my grandfather are old friends. ”
Li Liang high-fived and celebrated: "Such a great goodness!" ”
After the two finished speaking, they raised their lamps and drank together, and said something that sounded inexplicable to people who didn't understand.
Lu Zhe on the side didn't ask too much, in his opinion, the two of them would tell the things that needed to know the Dao, and it was useless to ask about the things that didn't need to know the Dao. Besides, he's had enough troubles right now.
During the conversation, Li Liang frequently used the words "Shandong" and "Montessori", and his tone greatly admired the importance of Shandong people in the Qin Empire. Sometimes, he would use a very careful tone to test how close the Xu Yang family was to Montessori.
Although he didn't pay attention to listening, Lu Zhe found something from their conversation, the Shandong lineage seems to be very important to the First Emperor in the current Qin Empire?
Li Liang kept testing the weight of the Xu family in Shandong, Xu Yang said something half proudly and half vaguely, and he also talked about the generals who came to select the front.
Lu Zhe, who was listening, realized that the general who came to choose the front was called Chong Pang, and this person was also a member of the Shandong line, and like many nobles of the Shandong lineage, he was attached to the very powerful Mengshi family.
Although it is not explicitly stated, or it is constantly beautified, in fact, many people are united under the command of the Montessori brothers, who are trusted by the First Emperor, to form a huge interest group. They don't necessarily have to be Shandong, in fact, as long as they are in line with their interests, there is no difference between where they are.
When Xu Yang spoke, he would occasionally glance at Lu Zhe who was eating with his head bowed with his inexplicable gaze, and this expression was not noticed by Li Liang, who was excited, but Lu Zhe found out that he didn't say anything but rolled his eyes back.
After eating and drinking, he burped, and then stretched his stiff waist, this kind of behavior was more enjoyable than anything else in Lu Zhe's opinion.
"Brother Zhe is free and easy." Li Liang teased: "Don't you ask about the selection of Feng?" ”
Lu Zhe stretched his waist and said strangely: "Is there a difference between asking or not?" As far as I know, the generals must have come in the order of 500 people. ”
Li Liang pondered for a while, and nodded in a daze.
"Huh?" Lu Zhe received a nod from Li Liang in response, and continued: "Since it is based on five hundred people, the most nervous and eager person to fight for is five hundred masters. ”
Li Liang still didn't understand that he had lost the IQ of a smart person, and he laughed ha: "It's extreme!" What the third brother said is extremely true! ”
Superfluous words should not be said again, otherwise it will be a sarcasm and sarcasm, do you still say something like "It's just that the little tun chief is not qualified to worry"?
Putting down the wine cup, Xu Yang groaned for a while, and looked at the past: "Does the virtuous brother know that Jiao Hunt and Jiaoqu have a festival?" ”
After being stunned for a moment, Lu Zhe, who had an okay IQ, immediately understood, and said, "Jiao Hunting has made a trip? ”
"Make a stumbling block?" Xu Yang, who probably understood the meaning, said bluntly: "It's useless to say (don't say that I didn't tell you)." ”
It was a slightly warning word, and this attitude made Lu Zhe stunned again.
Xu Yang said something more, the main family of the Jiao clan and the side branch are competing for power, and these are nothing, but Jiao Hunt used some means to exclude Jiaoqu from the list of candidates, so that Lu Zhe, who belonged to Jiaoqu's organization, was affected.
Probably worried that Lu Zhe didn't understand, Xu Yang began to tell some secrets about the military. According to him, the Six Nations have been wiped out, and there are fewer and fewer places where the military can make contributions in the future.
In the context of this speculation, many military families even believe that there will probably be no large-scale wars in the future, and the absence of a major war means that the way to develop the family by relying on military merits will be lost, and the family will have no soil for promotion.
An urgent mentality to cultivate the descendants of the family arose, and most military families attached great importance to this move of the empire to transfer troops to the north and south. In an atmosphere of importance, because it was impossible to determine the size of the Empire's troops, it became very important to fight for quotas to participate in the war.
The sources of information are asymmetrical at different levels, Xu Yang has a good family background, and he naturally knows more. He felt that there were no outsiders in the tent, so he talked about Jiao's infighting.
Yangzhou County is the range of Jiao's power, and the influence of Jiao's can be imagined, as the Jiaojia team of the master's family has a natural advantage, so the Jiaoqu branch has been suppressed.
It's ridiculous to say, the Jiao clan is not fighting for the position of the main family, but 300 acres of fertile land. The fertile land does not belong to the Jiao Hunt branch, but to the field of Jiaoqu's mother's family.
This kind of competition is very shameful in the eyes of many people, Jiaoqu's mother's family has no men, for some special reasons, the mother's family gave the deed to Jiaoqu's mother, so the ownership of the good field is also drawn on Jiaoqu Niang herself, and it also belongs to the Jiaoqu branch of the field. There is no disagreement in this development, right? But the main family of Jiao Hunt thinks that there is something to talk about, and then there is a battle behind.
After hearing this, Li Liang was angry: "The Jiao clan master is so greedy, and it is clear that he can strengthen the clan, why did he come up with this trick to fight for it?" It's stupid! ”
Xu Yang didn't think so, if a family is big, then the competition between the main family and the side branches will always exist. The main family of each family will not let the side branches grow, otherwise when the side branches are stronger than the main family, will the main family still be the main family? It can only be said that the main family of the Jiao family used the wrong method.
The Jiao clan master is stupid or not, Lu Zhe doesn't know how to go, he understands that the weakening of the Jiao clan, who is still fighting infighting at this juncture, has become inevitable. Qin Jun is indeed as Xu Yang said, without the transfer of the military marquis level, there is no way to change the sequence, once Jiaoqu is defeated, it means that he is not selected. Therefore, what he cares about now is whether Jiaoqu will really be excluded from the list of strikers!
Li Liang, who heard the news for the first time, glanced back and forth between Xu Yang and Lu Zhe, with a complicated expression and seemed to be very conflicted in his heart? If you can hear his heart, on the one hand, you are worried about Lu Zhe, and on the other hand, you hope that Lu Zhe's sequence is not on the list of selectors.
Xu Yang said: "Li Liang is a hundred generals, and he can intercede for his brother." The virtuous brother is the chief ......"
Lu Zhe understood what Xu Yang meant, the level was not enough, and sometimes there was no place to intercede.
You can perceive the degree of attention from the title, Li Liang is not contradictory, he really hopes that Lu Zhe's sequence can be excluded from the list of strikers at this moment.
