A Step Into The Past: I Am Han Xin - C147
Handan City. From the very first three families of War Nation, Zhao Xiangzi, to the general Wang Jian who was ordered by the Qin Wang to break through Zhao, to the man who was forced to relocate from the King of Zhao. After a hundred and fifty-nine years of being in the vicissitudes of life, he had always been one of the seven great cities of the world.
That Handan City used to be extremely flourishing, and with the proof of the later generation of Liu Shao’s “Zhao Du Fu”, there were many floors and pavilions, and even buildings that were constructed with steps. A great lord with a great face, if the phoenix will fly. The main hall was made from the heavens, and it was blessed by the Emperor. The coiled dragon serpentine, bearing the rainbow’s flying beam.
After the First Emperor of Qin had destroyed Zhao, he governed the county’s Handan, and the Handan City wall that had been plundered by the flames of war had once again recovered.
On the way to Jin Road, two riders came galloping. Immediately, a man and a woman, both worn out from the journey. However, it was difficult to conceal the elegant charm of the man and the gracefulness of the woman. It was as if they were a pair, interweaving brilliantly. The bystanders looked on enviously!
The two of them were Han Huaichu and Yu Zhiya who were rushing over from a thousand miles away from the Weidi. After more than ten days of trekking through mountains and rivers, finally, Handan was in sight.
In these ten days, Han Huaichu had beautiful girls to accompany his, although he had been travelling hard, he was willing to do it.
This was supposed to be the best time to pick up girls, but the relationship between the two of them seemed to be the same as before.
Along the way, Yu Zhiya frowned, she was lost in thought and remained silent. When Han Huaichu told her some of the jokes he had learned from < Laughing Forest >, she only smiled slightly, and upon hearing it, it seemed that Han Huaichu’s flattering jokes were not able to arouse her interest.
On one of the two occasions when he stayed at an inn, Han Huaichu bolstered his courage and knocked on Yu Zhiya’s door, hoping to hold a long conversation with her. That pretty girl yawned and said that he was tired. He still had to go tomorrow, and there was still a lot of time. He would wait until Handan came. Han Huaichu could only leave the room in embarrassment. He had been hit twice with a soft nail and he did not dare to set his heart on it again.
“What exactly is Zhiya thinking?” Did she have this person in her heart? Or is he using himself to achieve her goal of overthrowing the Blizzard Qin? ” That beautiful woman’s attitude towards him also made Han Huaichu confused in his heart.
Today, when they arrived at the outskirts of Handan, Yu Zhiya’s mood suddenly became better, and actually started chatting and laughing with Han Huaichu.
Does Young Master know which hero is most famous in Zhao?” asked Yu Zhiya. Han Huai Chu thought for a moment and said, “If it’s a hero, then it has to be Zhao Wu Ling Wang.” Yu Zhiya looked at Han Huai Chu with her beautiful eyes, and nodded, “That Zhao Wu Ling King rode on a horse, and subdued Zhongshan, Linhu, Lou Chou, and established a land for a thousand miles. His power extended all the way to Dai County, Yunzhong, and Dai County, and at one time, even wanted to compete with the strong Qin for supremacy, and give birth to heroes! If a man can be like this, then it will not be a waste of his life.
Han Huaichu knew in his heart that this pretty girl was using words to motivate him again, and he could only feel “sweat” in his heart. He naturally knew about Zhao Wu Ling Wang’s story, upon seeing that Yu Zhiya was in a good mood, he pretended not to know, and replied with an “Oh” in shock: “That Zhao Wu Ling Wang actually dares to oppose Qiang Qin?”
Yu Zhiya smiled, “That’s right. King Qinguang may be powerful, but he was once deceived by King Wu Ling. ” Han Huaichu could not remember anything, so he asked: “What happened then?”
Yu Zhiya then recounted a story.
With the matter of Zhao Wuling’s kingdom settled, he passed on his title and son, claiming to be the emperor’s father. In order to deal with the Qin State, he disguised himself as an envoy and went to the Qin State to check on the enemy. Along the way, they drew images of the mountains and valleys of the Qin State into shapes so that they could be used to attack Qin in the future.
When Zhao Wuling arrived at Xianyang, he was received by King Qinguang and chatted with him for a long time. King Qinguang asked, “Your father is at the prime of his life, why did he transmit the throne and his son?” Zhao Wuling said, “Our father called the Crown Prince to familiarize himself with the way of the throne. The government is still in your hands.” King Qinguang asked again, “Are your Zhao State afraid of my Qin State?” Zhao Wuling said, “At first, you were afraid, but now our country has more than ten times the people who are good at riding. You should be qualified enough to become friends with your country.” When he said this, King Qinguang scratched his head, not daring to look down on Zhao State.
Later on, King Qinguang remembered that Envoy Zhao was neither servile nor overbearing, that he was good at speech and argument, and that he was a talent. He wanted to have a chat with him again. Zhao Wuling’s underling said that the messenger was ill and would be able to see the king in a few days. A few days later, King Qinguang went to look for the emissary, but the building was empty. Only one of them left a message saying that he would leave my lord father’s order to apologize to the king.
Only then did King Qinguang know that the envoy was the king of the enemy kingdom. He hurriedly chased after them, but there was no time.
Yu Zhiya vividly narrated Zhao Wu Ling Wang’s anecdote, which carried a sense of praise. After Han Huaichu heard this story, not only did he admire Yu Zhiya’s vast knowledge, he also admired the bravery of Zhao Wu Ling Wang.
While he was speaking, a large group of people suddenly rushed out in front of him, dragging men and women as they rushed towards him as if they were fleeing for their lives. There were so many people that there were thousands of them.
Han Huaichu was confused, “Then Wu Chen is a virtuous man and loves his people, the people are living and working happily along the way, why would there be so many refugees when we reach the capital of the Zhao State?” He stepped forward and asked.
That group of people panicked and said, “Young Master wants to go to the Handan, let’s go back quickly! There was a riot in the city now, and the King had been killed by the rebels. The rebel army was in the city searching for their loyal subjects one by one. If anyone disagreed, they would be killed by the rebel army. The city is in a state of chaos, and we have just come here to avoid disaster.
“Wu Chen is dead! The King of Zhao that I tried to seek refuge with has been killed by the rebel army! ” Han Huaichu was stunned upon hearing this.
He had never read this passage of history before traveling through time and space, so he did not know anything about it. He only knew that Wu Chen had been harmed by someone, and that was why he had met with a bloodbath when going after Wu Chen at Cloudy Dreamy Cloud Mountain. Because of this, Kui Tong even gave birth to Han Huaichu for a long time.
Yu Zhiya’s face was filled with shock, and asked: “Then who is the rebel?” Everyone replied: “It’s my Zhao State Great General Li Liang.”
Yu Zhiya had a huge ambition in her heart, so she paid a lot of attention to the heroes of the realm. She knew that Li Liang was known for his courage to be able to make a Large Ax s out of his mouth. Initially, he was a Qin general, but he was bestowed the title of the Guardian of Handan by Qin Ting.
But he did not know why Li Liang would go and cause trouble for the King. She was disappointed that the owner of the shop, who had invited the Young Master Han to serve Wu Chen to fight against Qin Shi, had been killed.
Upon hearing the news, the duo didn’t know what to do either.
Suddenly, a horse came over, the man on the horse shouted loudly: “Junior Brother Han, why are you here?” Han Huaichu looked up and saw that the man was the Second Senior Brother Qu Tong.
Han Huaichu was overjoyed: “Second Senior Brother, is that you? I was looking for you. ”
The horse came in front of him in a flash, and Quai Tong jumped down from his horse.
“Junior brother, why are you looking for me?” Kui Tong looked at Han Huaichu with astonishment.
Yu Zhiya quickly answered for him: “Young Master Han wants to submit to King of Zhao, and lead troops to resist Qin.”
Kui Tong flew into a rage when he heard this and scolded, “Junior brother, you really know how to pick your time! I will go to the Ghost Valley to invite you over. Now that my lord has died, you actually came! ”
Han Huaichu knew that he was still brooding over the previous matter, and laughed apologetically: “This is also my first time in Zhao Di, and I just heard the grievous news about King of Zhao.”
Upon mentioning Wu Chen, Kui Tong was overcome by grief. He jumped down from his horse and knelt down facing the Handan City, crying out loud, “Great King, you died a miserable death!” He cried bitterly and fell to the ground.
“Yes.” that Wu Chen had helped the Second Senior Brother to understand his situation. The Second Senior Brother’s ambition all went to Wu Chen. Today, Wu Chen was actually harmed by the rebel army, the attack on Second Senior Brother’s heart is truly huge. ”
Han Huaichu sighed, walked forward, and helped Kui Tong up, saying: “Since King of Zhao is dead, senior brother still needs to restrain his grief and take this opportunity to do so.”
Kui Tong shakily stood up, still flowing, his dejected expression like frost.
Yu Zhiya walked forward and asked: “Mister Shi, I wonder why the traitor Li Liang killed King of Zhao?”
Qitong shook his head. “I don’t understand either. My king is not unkind to that Li Liang, why would he have the thought of killing his own monarch? ”
So it turned out that Li Liang had always been thinking highly of Wu Chen ever since he surrendered to him. Not long ago, they had led an army to attack the Changshan County. The citizens of the Changshan Army were well aware of Li Liang’s name, and most of them did not lower their heads in battle. Within a few days, they had already captured the Changshan County. When Wu Chen received the battle report, he was still happy. He wanted Li Liang to reward him well when he returned to the imperial court. When Li Liang led the troops back to Handan, the gatekeeper thought that they were here to win, so he let and his army enter the city. However, the moment Li Liang entered the city, he led the group of people with axes straight into the palace, which the guards of the palace could not block. King of Zhao Wu Chen was in the middle of the flower garden relaxing and was killed by Li Liang in one fell swoop. Without a word, he threw an axe and fell to the ground.
Li Liang had killed Wu Chen, but still did not stop there. He sent troops to the entire city to capture Zhao State subjects, cutting them down if they did not accept it, causing a storm of blood and gore to break out in the city. Many ministers were harmed by him.
Kui Tong received the news at home and quickly escaped from the Handan to avoid disaster. Just as he was walking away, he bumped into his Junior Brother Han.
Han Huaichu heard Kui Tong talk about Li Liang’s conspiracy, and asked: “Second Senior Brother, King of Zhao is dead, where do you want to go today?”
Kui Tong said bitterly, “Even though my king is dead, the army and horses are still here. I want to contact the generals and avenge my lord. That Li Liang was brave enough to be able to defeat others, he had a lot of subordinates, and most likely, only Han Guang’s army could win against him. I want to go to Han Guang’s army and advise him to gather troops to take revenge for our lord. ”
Han Huaichu had not heard of Han Guang for a long time, hence he asked: “Where did General Han Guang go?” The passage said: “Han Guang has passed through the Yan Dynasty and Dai Prefecture, now the two places have more or less been pacified.”
That Han Guang had followed Han Huaichu to a huge defeat at Longwupo, and even spoke out for him in the King Zhang Chu Palace, protecting Han Huaichu with all his might. Han Huaichu Fang Er was used by Chen Sheng and was sent to Wu Guang’s army. He had always had a good impression of Han Guang, but now that he heard news of his old friend, he was actually able to create such a great contribution point, he was extremely happy.
As the three of them were talking, Kui Tong suddenly exclaimed and turned to look behind Han Huaichu.
Beside the main road, a person was quietly standing under a tree with a fan in his hand. He looked at the refugees rushing over from the city and revealed a proud expression on his face.
This person was around forty years old, with a scarf on his head, he was refined and relaxed, revealing a sense of elegance, wasn’t he the third disciple of Guigu Xuance, the famous general of Hedong?
In that moment, Li Zuoche’s gaze met Kui and Han Huaichu’s eyes.
This was the territory of the Zhao State, and Li Zuoche, as the marshal of the enemy nation, had actually snuck near to the capital of the Zhao State. His appearance was truly unexpected.
As the Marshal of the enemy nation, if he did not have ulterior motives, why would Li Zuoche come to this place?
And the time Li Zuoche appeared, was exactly at the time Li Liang was going to kill him.
Qu Tong suddenly understood something. He pointed at Li Zuoche, gritted his teeth, and said sternly, “It’s you! So it was you who planned this rebellion! ”
Li Zuoche laughed with his head raised: “That’s right, it’s me. Second Senior Brother, you couldn’t even dream about it, could you? My foster brother killed that damnable Wu Chen. This is to welcome my master and take him in as the king of our Zhao State. ”
Quai Tong let out a loud cry, his eyes spewing fire as he rushed over.
