The bright moon dominated the world during the Qin Dynasty

Six hundred miles away from Shang Yu, it was once the fiefdom of Shang Jun and was located on the border of Qin and Chu.

At that time, King Wei of Chu destroyed Yue and defeated Qi, and fought with Qin in Bashu and Hanzhong. This place was once the forefront of the decisive battle between Qin and Chu.

It's just that time has changed. With the fall of Yingdu, Chu's forces withdrew from Nanjun, and it changed from the front line to the rear area.

Although the defenses of several cities along the way have long been in ruins, pavilions and barriers built back then can still be seen along the way.

These military fortresses were transformed into official offices, inns and other civilian facilities.

"This is it!"

In front of it is a tower, located among the mountains and trees, with a low wall. From a distance, it looks like a small fortress.

"My lord, the county magistrate, I never thought that there is such a military fortress among these mountains."

"A century ago, this place used to be a fortress for the Chu army to collect grain. It has not been used for a long time. I heard that Zhao Tingzhang was coming, so I ordered people to clean it in advance."

With a smile on his face, the county magistrate rode a horse with his followers and brought Zhao Shuang to the mountains.

Although Zhao Shuang was the head of the pavilion, news from Xianyang reached the county before he came, saying that he was a son of a nobleman.

The chief of the pavilion has the responsibilities of recruiting corvees, detecting thieves, and maintaining public order. If it is at the border, he also has the important task of defending against enemies.

However, the land of Shangyu was originally vast and sparsely populated, and most of the population was gathered around the plains and rivers where several cities were located.

There are not many people around this newly built pavilion, not to mention that the post road of the post station does not pass through here at all.

It can be said that there are basically no people here all year round. The only people you are likely to encounter are bandits.

It's just that this pavilion barrier is not under the jurisdiction of the county magistrate, but is a stronghold of the Qin army.

But as the Qin army abandoned this mountain stronghold and assigned it to the local county seat, the county magistrate was worried about how to deal with it?

This is not good, Zhao Shuang is here.

"Please look at Pavilion Chief Zhao. Here is the stable, over there is the granary, and after a bend is the arsenal. You can usually get water from a well or from a mountain stream."

There are ten horses in the stable, the granary is full of grain, and there are more than a dozen light crossbows and several bows in the arsenal.

Such a reserve is more than enough to deal with ordinary thieves. It can even be said to be a bit wasteful.

"If you are bored, you can go hunting in the mountains or stroll around the county town." The county magistrate smiled ambiguously, "Although we are a small place, the girls are still pretty good."

"Thank you, Lord County!"

"If Director Zhao sees that there is no problem, we will make the deal."

After completing the formalities, Zhao Shuang and his party parted ways with the people in the county.

"Lord County Lord, why did you put him in this damn place but give him so many supplies? I just took a look and found that the horses in the stable are all good horses."

Looking at the county magistrate beside him, the magistrate looked very unhappy.

"What do you know? There's a fight between the gods above. What can I do if I'm in the middle? I can only sacrifice this man from afar."

"Remember, supplies will be delivered on time and on time in the future, and I will give you whatever I want."

"Besides business, he just wants to call the most popular girl in the city over for a night of spring supper and satisfy him."

"How much will that cost?"

The county magistrate's casual words made the county magistrate sigh.

"Okay, how did you recruit this person? We'd better go to the temple to pay our respects. Don't let anything happen here. Otherwise, we may not be able to keep our official title."

"I thought you were so great, but in the end you went from being a general to being the chief of the pavilion now. It's like you were exiled."

Yan Lingji was dressed in men's clothing, lowered the brim of her hat, and mingled among Zhao Shuang's attendants, so no one knew she was a woman.

At this moment, the outsiders were all gone. She lifted her hat, her hair was like a waterfall, her eyes were shining, and her face was full of ridicule.

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Zhao Shuang felt that Yan Lingji always liked to argue with him ever since he lost weight.

"Whether it's a general or a pavilion commander, it doesn't matter to me."

Cook Ding walked in from outside, carrying two ducks on his shoulders.

"Commander, I just took a look and found that the kitchen facilities here are complete. We will cook roast duck tonight."

Zhao Shuang nodded. Sure enough, no matter where you go, it is right to take the cook with you.

"Tell the Mohist brothers outside that from today onwards, we will serve as guards in the pavilion."

"My subordinate understands."

Just after Chef Ding left, Yan Lingji came to Zhao Shuang again and focused his attention on her.

"Tell me! Since you faked your death and spent so much effort to sneak into Qin State again, why do you want me to know?"

Zhao Shuang smiled and leaned on the table.

"Have you not always wanted to rescue Tianze? I can help you!"

"Bragging!" Yan Lingji's face was filled with disbelief. She straightened her waist and said, "If you are still a general of Zhao State, you might be able to rescue your master from Bai Yifei. But now, how are you going to save him?"

Zhao Shuang smiled and met Yan Lingji's eyes.

"If I rescue him, what reward will you give me?"

Yan Lingji finally retreated when she looked at Zhao Shuang, secretly hating in her heart, how could I have lost if I still had that chubby face?

hateful!

"If you can really rescue the master, I will give you whatever you want!"

When Yan Lingji said this, she looked away and her face was slightly red. Fortunately, it was dark in the room, so I couldn't see it.

"It's a deal!"

The sun is setting on the earth, the moon is rising, the night is filling the mountains and fields, the charcoal fire in the house is about to burn out, and it is a little cold.

Yan Lingji was lying on the couch. She was sleeping after eating the roast duck. However, the sound of footsteps came from outside, and she opened her eyes with a vigilant look on her face.

The habit she has developed over a long time allows her to wake up at any time even in her sleep to deal with danger.

She got up from the bed and walked out of the house, only to see a dozen people kneeling on the ground in the yard in front of the tower in the dark night.

Headed by Dianqing, Bai Feng is on the side, and below are a dozen people in black.

"See my lord!"

Zhao Shuang's figure looked more and more slender under the moonlight. He was holding a mask between his fingers, without putting it on, with his hands behind his back.

"Lian Yun Feiqi has become famous ever since. From today on, you are the disciples of the Mo family, commanding thousands of Mo knights in the land of Qin and Chu."

"Only obey the Lord's orders!"

"Disperse!"

In a moment, the figure in front of him disappeared completely, as if he had never appeared before.

Yan Lingji blinked her eyes, only to see Zhao Shuang coming from the corridor and tapping her on the head gently before she woke up.

Looking at Zhao Shuang's jade-like face, Yan Lingji really believed that he could rescue Tianze at this moment.

"In the land of Qin and Chu, the power of the Mohist family is not great, but no one would have thought that this small pavilion in the mountains would be the hub for the operation of the power of the Mohist family in the land of Qin and Chu."

Yan Lingji looked at Zhao Shuang's confident face and muttered in her heart.

How much did this little fat guy make in the first place?

Such a loud tone!
