Chapter 238: The Eight Doctors’ Courtesy

The Xiang family of Juzhang was destroyed by the Qin army with the power of thunder.

Xiang Ji caused a disaster in Zhuluo Mountain, so he naturally knew that it would affect his uncle Xiang Liang. So, since the evacuation of Zhuluo Mountain, he hurried to Juzhang with everyone in order to inform Xiang Liang before the Qin army arrived. If he could fight, he would fight, and if he could not fight, he would retreat.

According to Xiang Ji's idea, Emperor Shi was still worshiping King Dayu in Kuaiji Mountain.

Even if you know your background, you won’t act too quickly. Anyway, you are enough to prepare before the Qin army takes action.

However, Xiang Ji really ignored the power of the Qin Dynasty.

Although the officials of Kuaiji County were accompanying Emperor Shi in the mountains, not all of them were left with officials on duty in various places and departments. Ying Guo and others were assassinated at Zhuluo Mountain, and the official documents of the camp were issued that night and sent to the left-behind officials of various government offices.

As a result, all roads along the way were blocked with Zhuji as the center.

With three steps and five steps, the government troops flowed continuously on the road, and there were also tourists from various villages to organize strong men to patrol the road.

Only then did Xiang Ji realize that they were unable to move forward now.

In desperation, he had to go into the mountains to avoid the arrest of the official army. When the Emperor Shi Huang's carriage left Kuaiji County, Yin Tong had already led people to take Xiang Liang. Xiang Ji and others did not dare to be careless, so they stayed at night and wore stars and moon. When the Emperor Shi Huang's carriage was about to arrive in Jiang Cheng, Xiang Ji and his party only found outside Juzhang City. At this time, Juzhang was guarded strictly. There were more than a dozen bloody heads hanging on the city gate tower.

That is the head of official Juzhang!

Xiang Ji couldn't help but take a breath and blamed himself.

If he hadn't acted impulsively on Zhuluo Mountain, how could he have caused such a big trouble? My uncle had been in Juzhang for several years. He finally had some foundation, but it turned out to nothing overnight. At the same time, what worried Xiang Ji the most was Xiang Liang's safety issue.

How could the old Qin people treat their uncle well if they make such a big noise?

"A Yu, don't worry!" Seeing Xiang Ji restless, Yu Ji couldn't help but whisper: "You are the backbone of us. If you are confused, everyone will be anxious. The most urgent task is to find out the life and death of our uncle and then make a fuss."

"My sister is right. Let's find out the situation first and then find a way to solve it."

Yu Ziqi also knew that Xiang Yu was in a mess at the moment, so he comforted him: "The heads at the city gate are mostly the heads of official Juzhang. If something really happened to his uncle, he would definitely hang it on the city gate. Now, there is no one on the city gate, which means that my uncle is still safe now.

Let’s do this. Yu Ji and I rarely come to Ju Zhang, and there are not many people here who know us. My younger sister and I managed to get in and find out the situation.

If you act rashly now, you will definitely be trapped by the Qin thief. Not only can you not save your uncle, but you may also fall into it. Old Long and Lao Cao, you are here to wait with the young master. Xiangzhuang... find a way to get some food. Everyone has worked hard these days."

Under the persuasion of Yu Ziqi's brother and sister, Xiang Ji gradually calmed down.

"Okay, I'll wait here, you guys should be more careful... If you don't have any news when it's dark, I will never wait."

The implication is to tell Yu Ziqi and his sister that if they don’t come back after dark, he will take action.

The Yu Ziqi and his sister nodded and agreed. While the morning light was not strong, they walked out of the forest and walked side by side in the direction of Ju Zhangcheng.

This day was tantamount to Xiang Ji.

Wandering in the forest, restless. On the one hand, he was worried about his uncle Xiang Liang, and on the other hand, he was worried about Yu Ji. Long Qi and others didn't know Xiang Ji's feelings for Yu Ji. At this time, it was useless for anyone to persuade him, so he could only wait patiently.

It's almost dark!

Xiang Ji is becoming more and more irritable...

At this moment, Xiang Zhuang, who was in charge of inquiring about the situation, cheered: "Brother, Ziqi and the others are back... Hey, it seems that they have brought people."

This sentence made Long Qi and others nervous immediately.

He picked up his weapons and made a fight, but Xiang Ji stopped them.

"The people who can follow me until now are loyal. Ziqi and the others will not be detrimental to us. Put away the weapons and let's go out and take a look."

Xiang Ji said, strode out.

The Yu Ziqi brother and sister walked into the forest with a white-haired old man. Although the light was not good, Xiang Ji suddenly recognized that this old man was the slave of the Xiang family and the book boy who grew up with Xiang Liang since childhood. He was named Xiang Li. This person can be trusted.

"Xiang Li, why are you..."

"Big Young Master!"

Before Xiang Ji finished speaking, Xiang Li strode forward, kneeled on his knees, and cried, "Master, something happened to him!"

"Why are you here?"

Xiang Li said: "On the day of the accident, the master discovered that the situation was not good early in the morning and asked me to escape from the ditch in the village. He told me that I must find the young master and advised him not to be reckless. The county magistrate of Qin thieves is now stationed in Juzhang. Thousands of people are waiting for the young master to rescue the old master.

The master also said that he would not have any worries about his life and would not worry about his son.

The most important thing for the young master is to protect himself... The old slave has been hiding in the home of the master's good looks for the past two days. Unexpectedly, he met Mr. Yu at noon, and with the help of the woman, he slipped out of Juzhang City. The old slave, however, heard some news about the master."

Xiang Liang is inhumane, but it does not prevent him from having a confidante.

Nowadays, the Xiang family is no longer the scene when Xiang Yan was alive. However, she still attaches great importance to a woman's background. Xiang Liang's confidante is a woman who makes a living in the fireworks alley of Juzhang. Even if Xiang Liang wants to marry her, she himself is not willing.

After all, doing flesh-and-skin business really discredits the Xiang family's face.

Although I live in Fireworks Alley, I have long stopped working in this industry with Xiang Liang's support.

Xiang Ji also knew about the woman, but he always looked at her and couldn't afford it. But he didn't expect that when Xiang Liang was in a downturn, this woman would dare to take Xiang Li in. She couldn't help but praise herself secretly, but on the surface, she still looked solemn and grabbed Xiang Li's arm.

"What news?"

"The master is no longer in Juzhang!"

"ah?"

"The Yin thief secretly sent the master away. Now he is probably in Wu County. The woman found out from the yamen that after the King of Qin was inspected, he would escort the master to Xianyang for disposal. Therefore, before the King of Qin returned to Xianyang, the master would not have any worries about his life for the time being."

Arrest to Xianyang?

That means you can't escape the word "death"!

Long Qi grew up with Xiang Ji since childhood, and Xiang Liang had the kindness of raising him.

Hearing it, he immediately said anxiously: "Young Master, let's go to Wuxian and rescue my uncle."

"No!" Cao Ju grabbed Long Qi and shook his head gently, "Wu County is the location of Kuaiji Prefecture. How can Yin thieves be cunning?

Now that the King of Qin has left Kuaiji, the Yin thieves do not need to escort them anymore, and they have enough troops to mobilize them.

In a small sentence, there are thousands of soldiers and horses... What about Wuxian? I'm afraid there will be more. The young master is extremely brave and cannot stop them from having many people.

Young Master, the master will not have any life worries for a while, and we can also deal with it calmly. Now, the Yin thief is in good condition, so we must not be alerted. After a while, the storm will be a little relieved, and then try to go to Wu County to find out the news, and then try to rescue the master."

Unlike Long, Cao Ju is the identity of a retainer.

However, he is very steady and has a strong appearance, but his mind is quite meticulous.

Among the many people, Cao Ju is the calmest person. Xiang Ji was also relieved of him. After hearing this, he nodded slightly and agreed.

"What should we do now?"

Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but ask, "You can't always be so lazy."

"Now, we need a place to settle down!" Yu Ziqi thought for a while and said softly: "I have a good place to consider.

To the west of Wu County, there is a place famous in Zhenze.

The waters are extremely wide, with a 800-mile magnitude... Connecting to the five lakes, you can enter the deep mountains, which is a good place to defend and attack. There is a leader in Zhenze named Huan Chu, who is quite capable. Since the Yin thief took office, he has tried to wipe out Huan Chu several times, but he has ended up losing his troops and losing his generals.

I once sold weapons to this person and learned some of his background.

Huan Chu was originally a general of the Chu naval army. Later, due to the failure of the naval army, he was afraid of being investigated, so he hid in Zhenze and became a water thief with his remaining troops. He had eight hundred water thieves under his command, all of whom were Chu naval army, who were used to fighting and were very powerful. The young master was the grandson of General Xiang Yan, and could take over those naval armies naturally. With these eight hundred water thieves, when the Qin thieves escorted their uncle, we could also hijack them halfway."

"Then Huan Chu, can you willingly hand over the people to us?"

Xiang Zhuang disagreed and couldn't help but say something.

Xiang Ji couldn't help but feel excited, "If Huan Chu cooperates, he will save his life; if he refuses to cooperate, don't blame me for being ruthless."

After saying that, he said to Cao Ju: "Old Cao, you and Ziqi took Xiang Zhuang and immediately went to Wu County to try to contact Huan Chu. Ziqi, what is your relationship with Huan Chu's men?"

"There are several generals who are very close to me."

"That's good, try to win over them... Xiang Li, Lao Long and his younger sister, follow me to prepare and then set off. Let's meet in Zhenze and act according to the opportunity."

Xiang Ji was quite decisive, and as soon as he said that, everyone immediately took action.

Unexpectedly, a fight caused such a thing. Xiang Ji took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and secretly cheered up in his heart: Xiang Ji, Xiang Ji, it was my uncle who took care of you in the past... Now that my uncle is in trouble, you must do your best and never let your uncle down!

For Liu Kan, all the incidents that happened in Kuaiji County have nothing to do with Liu Kan.

How could he feel to pay attention to what happened thousands of miles away now? His own affairs have already made him suffer in great trouble.

If Liu Ju's affairs were a sharp sword hanging above his head.

Then, on the way from Lou Cang to Donghai, my mood became a lingering nightmare. I can't tell what happened! My eyelids kept beating, and my heart was very confused. As the saying goes, my left eye twitched and my right eye twitched. Unfortunately, Liu Kan kept twitching along the way.

Historically, the First Emperor died on a tour of hunting.

Could it be this time?

But in Liu Kan's opinion, the First Emperor had a good complexion and was in good spirits. Although he had passed his forties, his spirits were not as good as many young people in his twenties. Liu Kan felt that the First Emperor could live for at least another ten years, which was no problem.

It was in this anxious mood that Liu Kan arrived at the East Gate.

Dongmenque is the east side of Yancheng, which was established by Liu Kan and Baman.

Today, Qunin Yancheng is no longer the property of the Qin family. In order to obtain the support of the First Emperor, Baman handed over the sea-boiling power of Yancheng to the court. This shows that she only wanted to develop in Shu and would no longer care about other matters.

Back then, when building Yancheng, the Qin family paid a huge amount of money.

However, for Baman, the money has nothing to do with her. Because she has no relationship with the Qin family anymore, she is Baman, no longer the Qin Man of the past. In addition, all the personnel stationed in Yancheng were recalled to Shu County. The First Emperor was very satisfied with this.
