Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

"Sister is here again?" In the March sunshine, Hong Lian, wearing a pink dress, had just stepped into the back door of Yang's house when a small figure had already blocked her way.

Honglian didn't have to lower her head to look at the short figure to know who it was. In this family, no one except the little girl Yingying would call her that.

Yang Yingying, who was born in the eighth year of Qin Wangzheng's reign, is now six years old.

At this time, it had been more than two years since Yang Ming returned to Xianyang from Nanyang County. Because of the Nanyang incident, Yang Ming was ordered by the Xianyang Palace to think about his mistakes behind closed doors and not to leave Xianyang without permission. Naturally, Yang Ming was happy to accept such a punishment. He is a very homely person. With a lovely wife and concubine by his side, how could he think of going out, so this punishment from Xianyang Palace is very interesting. No one knows what Qin Wangzheng is thinking.

"How many times have I told you to call me aunt." Honglian leaned down and pinched Yingying's little face. When she was young, her parents and brothers often pinched her face like this. At that time, she was a It was miserable.

At that time, she hated such behavior, but now? Holding Yingying's little face, Honglian felt that the touch felt really good.

"You are my father's apprentice, my senior sister. I should have called you sister, but you asked me to call you aunt. Do you want to take advantage of me?" Yingying pushed Honglian away and glared at Honglian fiercely.

Looking at the fierce Yingying, Hong Lian smiled nonchalantly. Speaking of which, Hong Lian also had a big doubt in her heart. Ying Ying's mother, Jing Shao, had a cold and indifferent temperament, but in Ying Ying's body, But he has a completely different personality, not like the Amazing Salamander at all.

"How can this be said to be taking advantage of you? Didn't you see that the mother and aunts I call you all call them sister? I am the sister of your mother and aunts. There is something wrong with you calling me aunt. "?" Honglian asked, looking for a reason.

"Then you want to take advantage of my father." After hearing Honglian's reasons, Yingying retorted.

"Huh?" Hearing Yingying's retort, Honglian's eyes couldn't help but condense, and she subconsciously examined the little girl in front of her. There was already a hint of guilt in her expression. Fortunately, it seemed that it was just an unintentional statement, not her imagination. Like in.

But Honglian, who was struck by Yingying's seemingly unintentional words, did not dare to dwell on this matter any longer. Sometimes children's unintentional words can cause huge damage.

"Okay, it's up to you. You can call me whatever you want. Why are you alone today?" Honglian took Yingying's little hand and said, "Sister, just sister!"

"They were all looking at Sister Black and White's cultivation results, and I ran out because I couldn't understand." Yingying explained.

"Really? How are the black and white guys practicing? Have they become masters?" Hong Lian curiously pulled Yingying towards the backyard.

Hong Lian, who often visited the Yang Mansion, was no stranger to the little sisters Black and White. She knew that they were the two earliest members of the Yang family. Yang Ming had always taught them martial arts. Later, Concubine Yan became the daughter of the family. After the master, he taught them many yin and yang techniques, and they were also real geniuses. After a few years, the two of them, who were only twelve or thirteen years old, were considered to be small masters. In the end, At least he was much stronger than Guren himself at the same age.

"No, they are the weakest in the family." Yingying shook her head and said. She didn't have a clear understanding of the concept of master. She only knew that in this family, black and white martial arts were the lowest, even if they join forces. I can't beat any aunt.

"Is it possible to compare like this? When your aunts go out, how many people in the world can be their opponents?" Honglian shook his head and smiled. Weakness also depends on who you compare with. The people in this mansion, Anyone who walks out is a top master, even the weakest Hu Ji is a second-rate peak. The scimitar skills in one hand are as fast as the wind, cunning as clouds, and full of murderous intent. As for Jing Salamander and Yan Lingji, , let alone that.

By the way, it’s not like there are no weak ones. Honglian was thinking, and a figure in green clothes suddenly appeared in her mind, but that one was no longer weak, and was the smartest one.

"Really?" Yingying said doubtfully. The concept of strength and weakness lies mostly in contrast, and her current knowledge is limited to this mansion. There is only horizontal contrast, but no vertical contrast. The understanding of strength and weakness is natural. It is biased.

"Let's go and have a look." Honglian said, unlike Yingying who had no idea about martial arts, she was still very interested.

After passing through several corridors and courtyards, Honglian pulled Yingying to an inner courtyard in the backyard. Unfortunately, she arrived a little late. At this time, the black and white sisters were kneeling in front of Concubine Yan to receive instruction.

As for Gongsun Li, Jing Salamander, and Yan Lingji, they had already left. Facing Concubine Yan's gaze, Hong Lian instinctively felt guilty. In front of the mistress of this mansion, she was not that confident. , especially when her brother Han Fei learned about Concubine Yan's other identity.

"Honglian is here? Your master has a guest now. You can wait here first." Concubine Yan glanced at Honglian and then ignored her. For this neighbor who could go to the door five times in three days, Concubine Yan There is no longer any need to see people outside, and entertaining is out of the question.

"I'm not here to find Master." Hong Lian said with a sly expression after Concubine Yan directly revealed her thoughts.

Unfortunately, Concubine Yan obviously has no interest in Honglian's explanation. Who has come from this age, why bother to delve into it.

While Honglian was still "fighting wits and courage" with Yingying, a guest did come to the front door of the Yang Mansion. It was Wang Jian who had just returned from Dongjun.

In the past two years or so, the situation in the world has been relatively calm, except that Zhao State is still being beaten.

In more than two years, Zhao's southern defense line was pushed completely north to the Zhangshui River and the South Great Wall. As for the cities on the north bank of the river south of the Zhangshui River, all the cities on the north bank of the river were occupied by the Qin army, and Wang Jian was in this series of wars. , successfully ascended to a high position, accumulated military merits, and officially replaced Huan Jue as the new general of Qin.

In the battlefield against Zhao State, Wang Bi, Li Xin, and Meng Tian also had outstanding military exploits, and they could all lead an army alone. Although there are reasons why some of them are talented people, their backgrounds and connections are also the reason. irreplaceable reasons.

As the Qin State completely occupied the cities along the north and south lines of the river, isolating the three kingdoms of Jin, and completely divided the world into north and south along the line of the river with the four counties of Hedong, Hanoi, Shangdang, and Dongjun along the line of the river, Qin The country's next strategic goals have also really changed.

The previous wars carried out by the Qin State against the Six Kingdoms were only to capture cities and occupy the population, but the following war was a real war to destroy the country.

"Congratulations to General Wang on your promotion to general. From now on, he is well-deserved to be the number one in the army." Yang Ming congratulated Wang Jian in the hall.

Over the years, Yang Ming's promotion speed seems to be the fastest, but in fact it is not the case. In the Qin State, the person with the fastest promotion speed is Wang Jian. During the five-nation joint attack in the sixth year of the Qin Dynasty During the Battle of Qin, Wang Jian was just a marginal general escorting grain and grass. In less than ten years, he had become a general of the Qin State. This speed could be said to be the first in the Qin State in decades. A portion.

"Yang Hujun's words are really embarrassing to me. Those who are not generals are just serving the king and the state of Qin." Wang Jian said modestly.

Although he was already a general and his status in the army was still nominally higher than that of Yang Ming, his family knew about his affairs. How could Wang Jian be so superficial and arrogant in front of Yang Ming?

Wang Jian knew very well that in the past few years, if the king of Xianyang Palace had not deliberately suppressed the speed of Yang Ming's promotion, according to Yang Ming's ability, the position of general could be easily captured, and it would be his turn.

You know, a general who is less than thirty years old is too appalling. If nothing else, a general who is less than thirty years old, if there is no accident, must have a career of thirty or even forty years. , let a person be a general for thirty or forty years, and any king would probably not have any scruples or even fear because of this.

On the contrary, Wang Jian was already over 40 years old, and he would have to retire after more than ten years of fighting. Xianyang Palace did not have to worry about all the soldiers being of the same surname.

Wang Jian knew that he only had the advantage of age in front of Yang Ming. As for the other things? It's better to be modest. Besides, he has a stable temperament, let alone any wild behavior.

Wang Jian is not only a general who is proficient in battle formations, he is also an old fox in officialdom who is well versed in the ways of being an official.

"The General's visit this time is..." Yang Ming did not respond to Wang Jian's modesty, but asked about another topic.

"As Yang Hujun knows, yesterday the king asked me about attacking and destroying the Six Kingdoms." Wang Jian replied.

"Destroy the Six Kingdoms? It's almost time." Yang Ming said without any surprise. Yang Ming could see this world more clearly than anyone else. After all, he was the one who could see through time and space.

"The king once asked me which country should start the upcoming war to destroy the country." Wang Jian continued.

"The general doesn't want to ask me this question now, does he?" Yang Ming asked.

"This is not only me, but also the king's doubts, so the king specially sent me to ask Yang Hujun's opinion." Wang Jian said.

"It's just South Korea and Zhao. As for whether the first country to attack is South Korea or Zhao, it's a matter of choice. However, the better choice should be South Korea." Yang Ming said nonchalantly.
