lnmao.org, the fastest update of the latest chapters of the Ten Kingdoms Qianjiao!
The climate south of the Yangtze River is different from that of the Central Plains. Since September this year, it has been raining for several days. The Western Capital (Jinling) was shrouded in patters of light rain, and the scenery of the palace became blurred under the rain curtain, like an old painting in a vintage, which can’t be seen clearly; the low sound of rain is all pervasive, without a single It's really quiet everywhere.
Emperor Zhou E avoided in the penthouse of the study, because Li Yu had to meet a guest temporarily.
There was rain interference, and the voice of Li Yu talking with the guests was sometimes unclear. The accent of the main guest is also a bit difficult to understand, the accent of Wuyue area.
The gray sky, damp air, and suppressed conversations all affected Zhou Xian's mood. She somehow felt that this place was full of conspiracy.
Li Yu's voice said: "Cui Shijun should know the truth of his lips and teeth. Today, the Zhou court annexed Shu and attacked Wuping, and there is a tendency to enter the south of the Yangtze; if the Southern Tang Dynasty does not exist, how can Wu Yue be spared?" /
The person named Cui Shijun made a call, but Zhou Xian didn't understand half of it in the penthouse. It seems to mention that Qian Hongchu, the current king of Wu Yue, was made king because of the coup... Zhou Xian knew about that. The former king of Wu Yue wanted to weaken the generals and was placed under house arrest under the coup, so Qian Hongchu was able to come to power.
"...The Emperor Wu Yue and Nan Tang are feuds, and I want to persuade his colleagues to rescue the Nan Tang state and cannot do it..." The man said this sentence is relatively clear, "I will come here this time to tell the Lord Important news."
Li Yu's voice said: "What news?"
The voice of Cui Shijun said: "Da Zhou sent a military commander named Cao Bin to Qiantang (Hangzhou), carrying an edict, and asking Wu Yueguo to prepare for the attack on Nantang..."
Then Li Yu's tone completely changed, and he could hear his emotions very affected.
When Zhou Xian heard this, he knew that Da Zhou's attack on the Southern Tang would soon be implemented...otherwise, the Zhou court ordered Wu Yue to attack the Southern Tang alone without any effect.
In a short while, the sound of conversation outside gradually subsided. Zhou Xian waited for a while, then walked out of the penthouse and saw Li Yuzheng sitting on the chair alone, rubbing his forehead with his palm. Zhou Xian asked: "What does the king want to do?"
Li Yu said with a sad face: "The upper reaches of the river have been lost, and Wu Yueguo is in his stomach again, and it's not going to work!"
Zhou Xian sighed quietly, and asked in a low voice: "Have someone persuaded the king to present a watch..."
"Not right!" Li Yu immediately shook his head, "Wu Yueqian family has always served the great power of the Central Plains, they can surrender; our Li family surrendered but did not end well! Lost the throne, what do I have left? Go to another country to endure humiliation Why!"
Zhou Xian was silent.
After a long time, Li Yu stood up and said, "I will discuss with the minister first about the country. The queen recently mentioned Sister Tuesday many times and missed her, and I want to receive it from the palace in two days."
When Zhou Xian listened, he felt a little panic inexplicably. She had no choice but to say: "The empress dowager loves the second sister, she is a great favor to the Zhou family."
Li Yu said again: "Emperor E will go with me to a dinner with my mother's queen in the evening. Are you interested in dancing for the mother's queen?"
Zhou Xian shook his head and said: "The world is uneasy, I really have no thoughts. The concubine and the king go together to ask for peace for the mother and the queen, and just do the courtesy."
"Also..." Li Yu sighed, "Especially in those days, my father was in charge of you betrothed to me, and performed a stunning dance in the palace. It will be like this in a few years."
Li Yu said he got up and left.
When Zhou Xian heard him mention that year, he was startled. Many years ago, she had a lot of expectations for this life. She was born rich, beautiful and beautiful to marry a boudoir. It was inevitable that she was very high-spirited; she practiced piano, chess, calligraphy and calligraphy, and melody and dance diligently, just like a peerless master in the mountains. , Just wait to get out of the mountain...Ehuang, naturally, to get the emperor's infinite favor. She thought the days to come would be very exciting.
Unexpectedly, the time gradually passed away, and it became such a lifeless and uneasy life.
Zhou Xian walked to the mirror, looked at the very beautiful face inside, and said in his heart: I can live so boring and empty.
The sky outside the window is gray, rainy and rain drifting outside the house, the air inside the house is equally humid and cold, and the daylight is gloomy and dim. Even the bright yellow and red drapery decorations look a bit old. The beauty in the bronze mirror is like jade, but his eyes are lonely and stagnant. Zhou Xian feels that she is as deserted as a ghost in a grave... She feels that there is no fun in this world.
……
But at this time, Tokyo beams are high in autumn, the weather is very dry, and the sun is clear.
"Pop!" With a sound of a chord, an arrow was quickly nailed to the wooden plank a hundred steps away, and the feathers on the tail buzzed and trembled with power. Seeing that he hit the bullseye, Guo Shao let out a long sigh.
"Okay! Okay!" Dong Zunzhuo's voice first yelled, and then the soldiers on the school field also cheered. There was a sound of flattery, and all kinds of compliments were endless.
Guo Shao is quite calm about such a scene. Just like ordinary people, when he is recognized by others, he will also feel very happy... But after a long time, he will not be interested in this very ordinary flattery, because he has listened too much.
Guo Shao turned his head to show a smile at the onlookers, and took an arrow again without hesitation. After the first arrow hit, he felt less nervous, and a sense of satisfaction came to his heart.
We talked with Dong Zunjiao for a while. Dong Zunjiao hoped that his "uncle" would spend more time with Gao's family. From his attitude, he obviously didn't care about his mother. This made Guo Shao feel that Gao's matter was not so serious...The person most likely to find Gao's pregnancy and resting is Dong Zunhao; now it seems that it doesn't matter if he does.
The school field is muddy soil, and there is some dust in the air, which affects the sight. Guo Shao held a bow and arrow, squinting his eyes to feel the distance between himself and the target.
It's actually not easy to hit a target a hundred steps away. Guo Shao remembers that the Olympic archery competition is only a few tens of meters away. Moreover, the bows and arrows used in the Olympics are completely different from the ancient ones. With the two stone bows in Guo Shao's hands, the first thing he needs is an extraordinary brute force, otherwise the pull will not be able to pull; secondly, it needs precision, it depends on feeling...The shooting method of bow and arrow is difficult to make stable The aiming equipment, whether or not it depends on skill practice.
"Hundred Steps Chuan Yang" is just a legend for most people. A precise shot can only be shot directly. A bow that can shoot a hundred steps at least requires the strong bow in Guo Shao's hands. A little wind direction from the outside world and the feel of the bowstring will affect the results. Your own hand shake, vision, and the timing of each action will also affect the results.
In such a demanding sport, as long as you successfully hit the target, it is a side proof that you are in good shape! This is also one of the reasons why Guo Shao can't let go of archery.
He feels like an ambitious hunter at this time!
He said silently in his heart: "I no longer have any psychological loopholes and entanglements. I am not betraying when I go to the countryside and do what I am doing. The people I care about are Jinzhan, Second Sister, Li Yuaner, Yulian... Even Gao Clan, their dignity, safety, future and their entire life are pinned on themselves; in this troubled world, only men can support the dreams that people weave."
"The dream of victory and invincibility will become the cornerstone of recasting the chaotic world!"
"I will no longer be afraid, I will be free to do whatever I want, and believe that I have the ability to take on this world and master this world!"
...Guo Shao reached out and touched the fluorene head, which always brought him good luck, an old waist ornament with crooked embroidery. He finally drew the bowstring, the whole movement changed from loose to tight, smooth and skillful. The violent force of pulling away the second crossbow made the bow body "click" tightly, and the atmosphere at this time alone attracted everyone's attention.
"Victory!" Guo Shao snorted with a bang.
With a "slap", the arrow once again penetrated into the distant plank. The plank was pierced twice by force and split from the middle!
There was another uproar around, and the soldiers and soldiers all looked at Guo Shao with awe. In the military, martial arts push archery to test whether a soldier is elite, as long as he can draw a strong bow, he may pass the selection immediately; Guo Shao's performance proves that he is a strong man in the martial arts in the most intuitive and simple way.
Guo Shao also feels that he has entered the best state.
In the noisy atmosphere, I saw Lu Chengyong riding on a horse, dismounting and clasping his fists, saying, "I’m the lord, the Hakka ambassador Zan Jurun is asking to see you outside the camp."
"Zan Jurun?" Guo Shao thought for a moment, and the appearance of a helmet appeared in his mind, because the helmet equipped now is the improved style of Zan Jurun. He didn't think much about it, he just said consciously and willingly, "Bring it to the camp lobby, I will come later."
Guo Shao threw the bow and quiver in his hand to Dong Zunzhuo, and rode a black horse slowly towards a group of buildings on the edge of the school field.
I saw Zan Jurun in the lobby. This guy is a 30-year-old civil servant who is very familiar with Guo Shao...During the reign of Emperor Xian, he was the supervising army of Guo Shao's department many times and was responsible for monitoring the changes in the army; He was also detained by Guo Shao during the Tokyo Mutiny. Anyway, Zan Jurun, Zuo You and others didn't go all the way.
Zan Jurun got up from the chair, looking like a wind and dust, and eagerly took out a roll of paper and presented it to him. Guo Shao reached out and grabbed it, and asked casually: "What is it?"
"Topographic map of Caishiji." Zan Jurun said.
Guo Shao was taken aback. He was very familiar with the term Caishiji, because he had been thinking about that place recently. A ferry on the west side of Jinling, because it is recorded in the military books that many battles across the Yangtze River were from this place; Guo Shao felt that the ancients also had ideas, and this place must have its advantages, so he recently checked a number of files.
"How did the envoy Zan think of the picture, and where did it come from?" Guo Shao asked.
Zan Jurun said: "When Commander Li Du (Li Chuyun) was ordered to attack Zhou Xingfeng, wasn't it just to attack Nantang? The next official thought that Dashuai Guo would want to know the situation here one day, so he went south for official business. Take a trip."
"Ha!" Guo Shao was instantly happy, and slapped him on his shoulder, "Last year, I locked you for several days, but Zanzhijun didn't hold any grudges... Sit, let me take a look at the picture first."
