Chapter 11 Wei People Zhou Market
Xiang Zhuang vaguely felt that there seemed to be some purpose in this, but he couldn't figure out which link was problematic. While Xiang Zhuang was deep in thought, Zhang Buyu's laughter rang out: "When my father was in the most difficult time,
I once asked Mr. Canghai for help, so the two families often communicate with each other."
Zhang Buyu paused for a moment, as if he saw Xiang Zhuang's doubts, and said with a smile: "Every time my father comes to visit, I will accompany him, but my father is old, so I come alone this time."
Xiang Zhuang nodded slightly. Back then, Lord Canghai hired warriors for Zhang Liang to assassinate the First Emperor. Although he failed, his ambition was commendable, so he turned his attention to the mansion in front of him. The mansion was huge, and it could be seen that Canghai
Since you are in Suiyang, you can be considered a prominent figure. Moreover, the gold-rimmed plaque has a magnificent font, carved in the Wei Dynasty script, and has two characters written to the Zhou Dynasty.
Several servants stood in front of the mansion. Zhang Buyu walked forward slowly and said something to one of the servants. Soon, the servant left, and Zhang Buyu turned back to Xiangzhuang. Unexpectedly,
In the distance, Zhang Buyi's attendants also arrived. As they approached, they said with a smile: "Sir, I found an inn in the east of the city and have already booked a room."
Zhang Buyu nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Did you bring the gift?"
"I'm bringing it with me, sir," the waiter said with a smile.
At this time, inside the mansion, an old man wearing dark clothes came quickly, smiled and held his hands in his hands: "Master Gongsun, my master wants you to come in, come with me!"
After passing through the long corridor, a small bridge appeared in front of everyone. The butler pointed to the small house built in the middle of the pond on the opposite side of the bridge and said with a smile: "You two gentlemen, please come inside. My master will be here soon."
After the housekeeper left, Xiang Zhuang looked at such a unique courtyard and couldn't help but smile: "This Mr. Canghai really knows how to enjoy it."
The two laughed in unison, crossed the small bridge, and walked into the house. The living room was about more than 100 square meters. The decoration was elegant and had a Wei style. It could be seen that Canghaijun was most likely from the Wei country.
After wandering around the house for a while, Xiang Zhuang was attracted by the two swords hanging cross on the wall. The swords were black in color and did not have many decorations, but they gave people an awe-inspiring murderous aura. Xiang Zhuang picked up one of them out of curiosity and slowly drew it.
//The sword comes out, the cold light flashes, and the domineering power is revealed.
"This sword is called Shuangsha. It is a pair of swords. It was once made by Wu Fuzi, a blacksmith in the Wei state. It kills people like hemp and drinks countless blood." At some point, a middle-aged man walked in slowly. Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but put the sword in his hands.
He hung it back on the wall and saluted the middle-aged man. Zhang Buyi also quickly stood up, clasped his hands into fists and said with a smile: "I've met Uncle Zhou."
The person coming was Mr. Canghai. Xiangzhuang couldn't help but smile and said: "I met Mr. Canghai in Xiangzhuang."
Lord Canghai waved his hand and said with a smile: "Since I am a friend of Gongsun Xiannephew and a guest from afar, please take a seat."
Everyone was seated separately. Zhang Buyi took out the letter from his arms and put it on the table. He pointed to the gifts brought by the guys and said with a smile: "Father has been feeling unwell recently and asked his nephew to come visit. Please ask Uncle Zhou."
Don’t be surprised.”
Canghaijun waved his hand, indicating that it was okay. At this time, the three maids each brought a cup of tea, placed it in front of the three of them, bowed, and left slowly. Canghaijun picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then picked up the letter, probably
After looking at it, he smiled and said, "Your father is too polite."
After laughing a few times, Mr. Canghai cast his eyes on Xiang Zhuang and said with a smile: "I just saw that you are very interested in Heisha? I don't know, what can you tell about this sword?"
When Xiang Zhuang saw Lord Canghai asking, he cupped his hands and smiled and said, "This sword is three feet long and is infused with Qingtong, but on both sides of the sword, fine steel has been added to increase its toughness, making it a formidable sword."
Lord Canghai was extremely satisfied with Xiang Zhuang's answer. He couldn't help but laugh and said: "This sword was given to me by King Wei when my grandfather was fighting. It can drink countless blood."
Cang Haijun seemed to be remembering something. After a long time, he sighed softly: "It's a pity that no one in this world can forge such a sword anymore."
After a brief silence, Mr. Canghai realized that he had lost his composure, so he couldn't help but laugh and said: "I was a little lost my temper just now. I wonder where Xiang Zhuangxian's nephew lives? Who is his father?..."
When Lord Canghai asked, Xiangzhuang had no choice but to reply: "Going back to Lord Canghai, I am a minister, and my father's name is Xiang Qu, after General Xiang Yan of Chu. However, when I was very young, my father followed my grandfather.
He died in the battle, and now I am staying with my brother at my uncle Xiang Liang's home."
Lord Canghai couldn't help but respect him and said, "It turns out she is Queen Xiang Yan."
Xiang Zhuang also smiled back and said, "Could it be that Mr. Canghai knows about my grandfather?"
Mr. Canghai smiled loudly as he plucked his beard, stood up and walked around the room, laughing and said: "In the battle of Jiangling, General Xiang Yan swore to die to serve his country and resist the Qin army. Although he was defeated and died in the end, it was enough to shock the world, and I have heard about it a little bit."
After Canghaijun finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh. Xiangzhuang was also recalled by Canghaijun and sighed: "That year, I saw my grandfather commit suicide with my own eyes. My father vowed to fight to the death, but was unable to do anything. He could not drink blood on the battlefield and serve the country with loyalty!"
Such magnificent words and the determination to die made Cang Haijun couldn't help but look at him differently. He patted Xiang Zhuang on the shoulder and comforted him: "Life will be unsatisfactory ten//eight//nine. You are so young, don't be blinded by the hatred of the past.
eyes."
Xiang Zhuang raised his hand and said, "Thank you Canghaijun for your words."
"Hahaha, the title Lord Canghai was given by the King of Wei in the past. Now that Wei is no longer here, I still like everyone to call me Zhou Shi." Lord Canghai laughed loudly, and soon Xiang Zhuang stood up with his hands raised and said loudly: "
Then I will call you Uncle Zhou from now on."
Inside the room, everyone burst into laughter.
...
Zhou Shi and Xiang Zhuang chatted for a while, and the two of them gradually became familiar with each other. At this time, Zhou Shi looked to the side again, Zhang Buyi, who had always remained silent, and said with a smile: "Since your father is not in good health, wait until I get ready."
Some gifts, you go back and take me to say hello."
"I don't dare bother Uncle Zhou." Zhang Buyi handed over his hand, but Zhou Shi waved his hand and said with a smile, "Why not, your father and I have a very close relationship, so it should be like this."
Xiang Zhuang returned home with an arrow in his heart. When he saw the two of them chatting, he stood up and came to Zhou Shi. He cupped his hands and said, "Now that Brother Gongsun has arrived safely, my mission has been completed. I have been homesick these days and am preparing to return to Xiangzhuang."
, let’s just say goodbye.”
"Brother Xiang, are you leaving now?" Zhang Buyi stood up and held Xiang Zhuang. On the side, Zhou Shi also stood up and said with a smile: "My dear nephew comes to Suiyang, and he also wants to give me a chance to join the friendship of the landlords."
, how about staying for two days and returning with Gongsun Xiannephew?"
Both of them looked at Xiang Zhuang. Xiang Zhuang looked a little embarrassed and could not refuse. He was hesitating. At this time, a man walked in from the door with a bold voice. No one heard him before they saw him: "Uncle Zhou, I heard that Brother Gongsun
Coming? Why didn’t you notify me..."
Soon, a young man wearing a blue brocade robe walked into the house. He walked straight towards Zhang Buyi, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "When did Brother Gongsun come? You didn't even tell me."
After saying that, the man hurriedly greeted Zhou Shi: "I've met Uncle Zhou."
Zhou Shi nodded. At this time, he discovered that there was another person beside him. This person was tall and strong, with firm eyes. He was similar in age to himself. He couldn't help but be surprised: "This is...?"
Zhang Buyi quickly pointed to Xiang Zhuang with a smile and introduced to the young man: "This is my friend, Xiang Zhuang, a good minister."
After a pause, Zhang Buyi introduced the young man again: "This is Wei Jiu, a descendant of the former Wei State."
When Wei Jiu saw Zhang Buyi introducing each other, he couldn't help but raise his hands and said with a smile: "It turns out it's brother Xiang."
"Brother Wei, please take care of me." Xiang Zhuang also raised his hands.
Seeing the two people greeting each other, Zhou Shi couldn't help but laugh loudly: "I was worried that nephew Xiang Zhuang was in a hurry to go back. Since Mr. Wei is here, we might as well hold a banquet in the back house and have a drink, how about it?"
"In that case, it is better to obey orders than to be respectful." Xiang Zhuang and Zhang Buyi both cupped their hands and said with a smile.
...
In the back hall of Zhou Mansion, everyone was seated separately. The servants were busy serving various dishes. There were five banquet tables in total. One of them had just learned that Zhang Buyi was visiting and came over temporarily. His name was Li
Yan was once a general of the Wei State. After the fall of the Wei State, in order to continue to follow Wei Gongzi, he and Zhou Shi moved to Suiyang.
At this time, the musicians played their instruments, and a very beautiful Wei song echoed in the back hall. With the melodious music, a musician slowly read: "The misty Yellow River is getting further away, the bustling waves are sounding, and the beacon smoke is everywhere.
Raising swords and soldiers, the seven heroes will fight in vain, and the five hegemons will fight in vain. I often sigh at the separation and reunion of the past and the present, soothing my heart and comforting my life, relaxing and brightening the moon, always caring about love, nothing better than singing a song, and then borrowing three lines of wine..."
The music is beautiful, the music is heart-wrenching, and the clear voice of the musician reads the song "Linjiang Fairy", which makes people intoxicated. Scenes of the past reverberate in the heart, but as the music gradually comes to an end, the vague feeling
The memories slowly fade away with the music, leaving only a sigh in my heart...
At this time, the food and wine had been served, the servants and musicians had also retired, and the room was quiet again. Soon, Zhou Shi raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "Two worthy nephews have come from afar. As the host, I would like to pay my respects to these two worthy nephews first."
A cup for my nephew."
"Uncle Zhou is too polite." Zhang Buyi said with a smile, raised his wine glass, drank it with everyone, then picked up the wine pot, filled the wine glass, and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhou, I want to toast you too."
After three rounds of drinking, everyone was already slightly tipsy. Zhou Shi drank two more drinks at this time and started talking more. Holding the wine glass, he smiled bitterly and said as if reminiscing: "Back then, the Qin army broke through the capital of Wei, and the Wei state followed.
After the defeat, many people, like me, became confused and did not know how to continue their lives in the future..."
Li Yan also sighed: "The defeat of Wei broke the hearts of many people."
Everyone fell into sadness, Zhou Shi continued: "After that, I heard that Wei Jiu was demoted from Daliang and ordered to move to Suiyang. I was alone at the time, so I followed him to Suiyang. In a flash, there were more than ten people.
Years have passed."
Sighing softly, Zhou Shi sighed helplessly: "Now, the Qin State has gradually stabilized, but the descendants of the Six Kingdoms are slowly declining, and the people have unified. I really don't know if anyone will remember their former homeland in the future.
That period of history that is unbearable to look back on, remember the country you once had..."
Zhou Shi's sigh reminded many people of their homeland, especially Zhang Buyi. He thought of his father's travels over the years, just to revive Korea.
