Chapter 43: Survive Well
The wooden house was not far from the pass, and in the night there was only the wind blowing the leaves and the snorting of the horses from time to time.
So everyone can hear those two crisp sounds,
For a moment, the whole scene felt slightly awkward.
The Chu troops who were guarding Zhao Hao and others outside became friendly one by one.
After all, I was hit on the head, and the result is self-evident.
Soon, Chu Jun, who had just gone in to report the news, came out with a red face, but he seemed to be holding something in his hand.
When he arrived in front of Zhao Hao and the others, he whispered,
"This noble man is really sorry. My Shangguan was injured before, so he has limited mobility and cannot come out to see you off."
"I wasted your time just now, so I can only send you some small gifts. I hope you can forgive me."
As he spoke, he took out the things in his hands.
It's a small bag, and it should contain some money.
Just hearing this, the other people's faces also looked a little weird. Of course, they couldn't believe what the other person said before.
At the very least, those two crisp sounds just now could not have been made by an injured person.
It seems that he didn't come out because he was afraid of being beaten, so he gave money to ward off the disaster.
At this time, Zhao Hao still had a cold face and said,
"Your Shangguan is quite clever. You should learn from him."
Then he looked at it, but instead of taking the money, he said,
"Are you worthy of offering money to me?
I think it's dirty, so go get all your horses. "
Hearing this, Chu Jun hesitated.
These horses are used for communication, and there are not many of them. If the other party has one,
There aren't many left of them,
But feeling the burning slap marks on his face, Chu Jun gritted his teeth and said,
"My lord, wait a moment, I'll get it for you."
After saying hello, someone came quickly leading the horse.
-
After getting the horse, Zhao Hao snorted coldly, then got on the horse and left in a swaggering manner.
After Zhao Hao left, a Chu army centurion came out of the wooden house. He looked around with his waist slightly bent and asked,
"Have those noble people left?"
The native Chu Jun, who had just been slapped several times, replied in a low voice,
"Shangguan, those nobles have left."
"But they didn't take any money, just a dozen horses."
After hearing this, the centurion of the Chu army straightened up, took a long breath, and then said,.
"Didn't get any money?
Yes, they don’t like this, it’s just my horse…”
After a heartbreaking pause, the centurion of the Chu army immediately cursed at his subordinates,
"You guys who are short-sighted actually dare to stop you when you meet a noble person of the first or second level!"
"You still want to drag me down, but I think I'm usually too nice to you!"
.
After the centurion of the Chu army finished scolding, the native Chu Jun made a sad face and whispered,
"Shangguan, my subordinates didn't want to stop me at first. It's just the clothes these nobles wear..."
Before the natives could finish speaking, the centurion of the Chu army said a little irritably,
"You still want to quibble! You can wear whatever clothes you want! Do you have any questions?"
"Are you still afraid that you are the enemy's spy?"
"Even if there are remnants of the Qin army, who dares to run in our direction and pass by here with such arrogance?"
"You dare to take action directly when you are questioned?"
"Do you think it's possible!?"
After being scolded by the centurion of the Chu army, the native Chu army also lowered his head sadly.
Indeed, apart from the problem with the other party’s clothes,
Regardless of appearance or attitude, they are exactly the same as those of their first- and second-level nobles.
Even if there are remnants of the Qin army who want to escape from here, who would dare to be as arrogant as them?
So he said,
"It's a subordinate who didn't think well."
Seeing that the other party admitted his mistake, the centurion of the Chu Army nodded and said with a bit of impatience,
"Okay, keep watching and keep your eyes open!"
After saying that, he returned to his cabin to rest.
Soon the pass returned to calm.
On the other side, after passing the pass, Zhao Hao and others did not stop for a moment.
Following the general direction in Zhou Yafu's memory, he galloped towards the border town of Chu State.
It wasn't until daybreak that I found a secluded place to rest.
Everyone gasped, collapsed on the ground, looked at each other, and then burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, Zhao Ritian usually sees you as gentle and polite, but I didn't expect you to act arrogantly and become stronger than us!"
"Who says it's not the case? I see that Chu Jun was stunned by your slaps."
"To be honest, I was a little scared just now, and I didn't expect you to dare to ask for a horse!"
"Thanks to you this time!"
Listening to everyone's words, Zhao Hao couldn't help but smile. His arrogance actually had a origin.
Just one-tenth of his uncle Hu Hai's usual performance would be enough.
Of course, when faced with other compliments, Zhao Hao did not feel complacent, but said,
"This was all Zhou Yafu's idea, and everyone cooperated well."
His father taught him since he was a child that even if he has achieved some achievements, he must take credit for the contributions of others.
Don't upset others just for your own complacency.
Sure enough, everyone was even more impressed when they saw that Zhao Hao did not take all the credit.
After taking a short rest, Zhao Hao quickly said,
"Let's make preparations, find a city, officially enter the Great Chu Kingdom, and then make some noise."
With this experience just now, access will not be the biggest problem for them.
As long as they are careful, no one will be checking them after they go further into the hinterland of Chu State.
If they find another opportunity and figure out their identity, it will be much easier for them to act.
The reason why they want to make some noise is, firstly, to disturb the Chu State's internal affairs, and secondly, to send some signals to the Qin army.
Zhao Hao understood that with his status, if he suddenly disappeared, there would definitely be a big mess.
You can only make some noise to convey your message.
Soon everyone mounted their horses again. Zhao Hao glanced at the direction of Da Qin and said silently in his heart,
"Don't worry, Dad, the child will survive well!"
Then he no longer hesitated and led everyone towards the border town of Chu State!
Nearly a month later, winter has already entered Xianyang, and there is a blanket of snow everywhere.
In the palace, Zhao Lang was handling government affairs somewhat casually.
The slave on the side smiled and said,
"Master, you have worked hard these past two days, why don't you take a break."
Zhao Lang immediately put down the documents in his hand, stood up, and said,
"Okay, by the way, has there been any news coming from the south recently?"
The slave will return soon,
"Master, it's winter now, this news..."
It's just that he hasn't finished speaking yet.
An attendant hurriedly walked in and reported,
"Your Majesty, there is an urgent message from the south!"
Hearing this, Zhao Lang couldn't help but frown slightly.
