Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

In the former General's Mansion of the Wei Kingdom, Gongsun Yu, who had been sent back to recuperate after the Qin army broke the city, was leaning on the soft couch, looking weak.

He was injured by Yang Ming's three-point return vitality that day, and he has not recovered until today, several days later. The inner breath of three-point return vitality is entangled in his meridians all the time, and the three-point flow is endless. And it is extremely capable of change. The waxing and waning of the three types of inner Qi is a brand new three-pointed return of vitality. The transformation technique in it is something that even Gongsun Yu, with his master's methods, cannot do anything about in a short period of time.

"What have the Qin army been doing these days? Have they looted?" Gongsun Yu sat up and asked his disciple Jing Ke who had returned from abroad.

"The Qin army has strict military discipline. Except for the 10,000 troops who control key areas and city defenses, the rest are in the Qin army camp outside the city." Jing Ke walked in front of Gongsun Yu and knelt down at the banquet beside him. above.

"Where does the Qin army control?" Gongsun Yu asked.

"Places like arsenals, granaries, and by the way, there is also the Sikou Mansion. I heard that the Qin Army recruited many literate soldiers in the past two days to enter the Sikou Mansion and collect various archives and prison books from the Sikou Mansion in the past thirty years. They have all been found, and I heard that they still need to be sorted out." Jing Ke showed a strange expression when he said this.

Yang Ming, the chief general of the Qin Army, was faced by Jing Ke many times on the battlefield. Although Yang Ming's true strength was not necessarily stronger than Gongsun Yu, to Jing Ke, Yang Ming was already an invincible being. .

But for such a person, after entering the city, he neither had the indulgence of a victor nor the decisiveness of a general of the Qin army. He actually went to deal with piles of useless bamboo slips.

Such things seemed unbelievable to Jing Ke.

"So murderous." Hearing Jing Ke's statement, Gongsun Yu couldn't help but take a breath.

"Murderous nature?" Jing Ke asked in astonishment. Looking at those useless bamboo slips, it was obviously something that only those scholars liked to do. How could they be associated with something like murderous nature?

"He is looking for a reason to kill. Not only does he want to kill, but he also wants to kill people. He wants to kill with reason. He wants to kill so that no one will refuse. He wants to completely conquer our country." Gongsun Yu said quickly, and by the end he couldn't help coughing. If Yang Ming had not taken action, he might not be able to recover from the injuries Yang Ming had caused him, even if he spent the rest of his life.

"He wants to be a Sikou?" Jing Ke said in hindsight.

"What Sikou? He wants to be the king of this city." Gongsun Yu let go of the sigh in his heart, and his whole person instantly became more depressed.

None of these dignitaries in Diqiu City is absolutely clean, and none of them has done anything dirty. If we really want to investigate and kill ten of them, even one of them may not be killed unjustly.

"Does he want to kill all the dignitaries in the city?" Jing Ke was not a stupid person. Gongsun Yu had already spoken to such an extent, how could he still not understand the meaning?

"If he wanted to kill all the dignitaries in the city, that would be fine, but he can't. He will only kill a group, suppress a group, and promote a group. In this way, all the people up and down the Emperor's Hill will belong to him. ." Gongsun Yu sighed.

Weiguo will be completely destroyed this time, not only the loss of the city, but the death in the true sense, from reality to the people's hearts.

As the two masters and apprentices sighed, a girl walked out of the side courtyard. The girl was only fourteen or fifteen years old. She was wearing a plain dress, which covered her tall and slender body, from her neck to her shoulders. , to her ribs, all showing perfect lines, especially the perfect curves that suddenly closed in at her waist.

Everyone knows that Chu girls tend to have thin waists, but no one knows that in a boudoir thousands of miles away from the Chu Kingdom, there is a girl who is still known as Chu girls with slim waists.

After all, although Chu women have a slim waist, they come at a price. When they pursue a slim waist, they often use dieting to tighten their waists. Although they have a slim waist, they are still weak and sickly. Although beautiful, she lacks charm and lacks the purity and health of this young girl.

Her face was beautiful and pure, and she was like a stream of water. It was not as cold as a startled salamander, but clear and gentle, like half of the gurgling water in spring.

"Grandfather, senior brother Jingke."

The girl walked up to Gongsun Yu and said, "Grandpa, take good care of your injuries. We cannot care about external matters."

"How can you really stay out of the situation when you are here? Didn't you see that the situation has already come to your door?" Gongsun Yu said with a wry smile. At the end of his sight, there was an additional figure.

"Li'er, please go back to your room and don't see anyone else." Gongsun Yu warned the girl, his granddaughter Gongsun Li.

Gongsun Li nodded, the hairpin in her hair swaying slightly, adding a touch of warmth to Gongsun Yu's depressed mood.

When Gongsun Li disappeared from Gongsun Yu's sight, the visitor also came to him.

"Kong Qi has met the general." The visitor was dressed in gray cloth, and at first glance he didn't belong to a wealthy family.

"Weiguo is gone. How can we have any generals? What are you doing here?" Gongsun Yu looked at the visitor and asked.

"It's the case of the late emperor," Kong Qi said.

"The case of the late emperor? What do you want to do?" Gongsun Yu stood up from the soft couch, with a solemn look on his eyebrows.

"General, you must also be aware of the death of the late emperor," Kong Qi said.

"That is already a thing of the past. Now that Weiguo is gone, why are you still mentioning those things?" Gongsun Yu said.

"It turns out that in the eyes of the general, the death of the late king is just a trivial matter." Kong Qi mocked.

"Kong Qi, I am a good friend of your grandfather, so I will take advantage of you here. As an elder tells you, the matter of your ancestor is not that simple, especially if you bring it up now, you will be killed." Yes, among those who will be killed, there will even be countless innocent people." Gongsun Yu said.

Kong Qi, a descendant of a declining aristocrat in Diqiu City, had a poor family situation that was even worse than that of ordinary people, but his ancestor had a famous figure: Kong Zhou.

Kong Zhou did not have any special hobbies, he was just a person who liked collecting, and he also developed his collection to the extreme. Among Kong Zhou's many collections, he had three swords that were the most famous, and they were collectively called the Three Swords of Emperor Yin. It is said that the top grade contains light, the second grade is called shadow bearing, and the third grade is said to be night practice.

It's a pity that as the saying goes, a man is not guilty of having a jade, but Kong Zhou was too rich. After his death, many descendants failed to live up to his expectations. His own squandering and the coveting of others, the Kong family completely declined decades ago. .

If it were not for the ancestor of the Confucian family, he once entertained Confucius, the founder of Confucianism, who led a group of disciples to travel around the country to defend the country, and even gave him the top-grade light sword among the three swords of Emperor Yin, thus leaving a huge mark on Confucianism. So much so that if the Confucian people later took care of the Confucian people, the Confucian family might have become extinct long ago.

"Except for the general, are there really innocent people in this huge Diqiu City?" Kong Qi said coldly, with a look of madness between his brows.

The Confucian family's wealth has long been dissipated, but the three swords of Emperor Yin, except for the high-grade Hanguang Sword, which was clearly given to the Confucian family by the ancestors of the Confucian family, the middle-grade Chengying and the low-grade Xiaolian are still in the hands of the Kong family.

Fifty years ago, a young man in Diqiu City wanted to leave his home and go out to study with a teacher. One of his friends gave him Xiao Lian, a family heirloom sword. Since then, Xiao Lian, which had been lost for many years, reappeared in the eyes of the world.

Of these two young men, the young man who went out to study was now Gongsun Yu, and the young man who presented the sword was Kong Qi's grandfather.

This is just a friendship between two teenagers, but what others see is something else.

Since the long-lost Xiao Lian Sword is still in the hands of the Kong family, is the last sword among the three swords of Emperor Yin also in the hands of the Kong family?

For a time, countless greedy eyes focused on the people of the Kong family. Among these people was Ji Yuan, the son-in-law of the King of Wei at that time and the Duke of Wei.

At the beginning, under the protection of Gongsun Yu, the Kong family could still resist those coveting eyes. Later, Gongsun Yu had to leave his hometown due to his sect's duties. The Kong family lost its protection and was still in trouble. The only remaining ancestral property was destroyed. The young master Ji Yuan snatched it away, and Kong Qi's grandfather was even furious to death.

When Gongsun Yu returned to Weiguo as a loser, it was too late, and revenge was out of the question. Gongsun Yu was not a knight-errant, he still had his own identity, which forced him to abide by various rules. Due to his identity, all he could do was to isolate those greedy eyes who seemed to be looking for the Yingying Sword on Kong Zhou.

But now, because of the arrival of the Qin army, Kong Qi, who had been waiting for a long time, finally saw the hope of revenge.

"It seems that you have really defected to the Qin army. So, why did you come to me?" Gongsun Yu asked.

"General Zuo invites the general and people from various families in Diqiucheng to review the murder of the late emperor," Kong Qi said.

"The late king was imprisoned and killed by the King of Wei. Isn't this something everyone knows?" Gongsun Yu asked.

"But why did King Wei imprison and kill the late king for no reason? As the son-in-law of King Wei, did Ji Yuan do something at that time? Who was the person who colluded with each other and trapped the late king to death?" Kong Qi coldly said. said.

"Are you really so devoted to serving Qin?" Gongsun Yu sighed, what he saw was a man blinded by revenge.

"General Zuo of Qin State can help me take revenge." Kong Qi affirmed. He was telling Gongsun Yu, and he was also telling himself.

"I'm not interested in this matter, please go back." Gongsun Yu refused.

"General, this is General Zuo's invitation. As far as I know, Gongsun Shimei seems to be still in Diqiu City, right?" Kong Qi threatened.

"Kong Qi, are you looking for death?" Before Gongsun Yu could speak, Jing Ke could no longer bear it.

A traitor who was close to the Qin State was so arrogant that he even dared to use his junior sister to threaten his master.

"Brother Jing, do you want to take action?" Kong Qi sneered, looking down upon Jing Ke.

"Do you think I don't dare?" Jing Ke glared angrily.

"Ha." Kong Qi said, no longer paying attention to Jing Ke, but said to Gongsun Yu: "General Zuo is waiting for the general at Sikou Mansion. I hope the general will not keep General Zuo waiting for a long time."

After that, the person has left.
