"The Marquis is going to Kuaiji this time?" When he returned home, he sat under the shade of the garden and drank herbal tea to cool off the heat. Jiang Chuxing couldn't help but ask.

"Well, this time I followed the emperor to tour the southeast. I left early because I had something to do. I still have one more thing to go to Wuzhong!" Chen Xu nodded.

"Hehe, it's so good. I can also follow the Marquis to play in the uncle for a while!" Jiang Chuxing suddenly became excited.

"It's okay if Brother Jiang is going. You can arrange some things for me at that time!" Chen Xu thought for a moment and nodded.

In addition to seducing Hou Sheng this time, he also wanted to meet Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, two super historical figures in later generations.

Liu Bang has seen him now. He looks like an ordinary middle-aged uncle, and it is not surprising. Although he did not reveal the identity of Qinghe Hou, even Mr. Xu from Xianyang was very cautious and somewhat flattering.

Overall, Chen Xu was a little disappointed.

But this is reasonable. After all, Pei County is a small place, and there are still seven or eight years left before the chaos in the world. As long as Qin Dada sits on the dragon throne for one day, any hero with the so-called talented and stubbornness in his bones can only continue to live such a humble life like a little ant.

What's more, as long as there is a chance to make progress, no one is willing to blindly rebel on his belt. At present, as long as someone in the Qin Dynasty dares to jump out, he will be gently crushed to death by Qin Dada with his little finger.

The so-called times create heroes. The world is peaceful now, and there is no soil or opportunity for rebellion. Liu Bang can still be a gangster leader here. Even Liu Bang rebelled in later generations, he was completely forced. First, he escorted the prisoners to Mount Li to escape. Liu Bang was helpless and simply let the rest go, and then hid in Mangdang Mountain to avoid disaster. Then, the magistrate of Pei County was preparing to summon Liu Bang, the gangster leader, to rebel. As a result, the magistrate felt that he might not be able to control Liu Bang, which rebelled, which led to Xiao He and Cao Shen, who could only escape from the county town and surrender to Liu Bang, and then encouraged Liu Bang to raise an army to kill Pei County. He raised the banner of rebellion.

In other words, without the influence of Xiao He and Cao Shen, Liu Bang would basically not have much chance of rebellion.

This is just like Zhao Kuangyin, the Taizu of Song Dynasty, who was transformed into a yellow robe and was driven to the shelves by a group of subordinates, but in the end both of them succeeded.

The reason for success is that the Qin Dynasty has indeed lost its ministers and people's hearts to the verge of collapse.

Compared with Liu Bang, a successful man, Xiang Yu, who had rebelled since childhood, was the real rebel.

After meeting Liu Bang, he decided to go to Wuzhong to meet Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew.

If all these people can be fooled to Xianyang, monitored by yourself or even taken to your own hands, the future history will inevitably become completely different.

As for how to arrange it when I got to Xianyang, although Chen Xu had not yet decided, there were so many offices in Xianyang that he could just stuff them in.

Those who are ambitious and hope to make progress are the best control.

As long as they are given a place to display their talents and ambitions, many people's lives will undergo tremendous changes. They will eventually be like an uncontrollable time bomb, and any changes may occur at any time.

If the emperor really dies in a few years and still has no designated crown prince, the court may still be in chaos. When the court struggles are full of chaos, maybe these people will still jump up and rebel. Even if they can be destroyed in the end, the Qin Dynasty will inevitably be damaged and will go through some turmoil. These are all things that Chen Xu does not want to see.

In the next few days, Chen Xu followed Jiang Chuxing to stroll around Pei County every day, mainly to understand the people's sentiments.

After wandering around for a few days, Chen Xu also roughly understood Jiangbeiting's difficulties.

There are indeed many idle people in Pei County. It seems that people here don’t like farming very much. Most farmers plant mulberry trees and silkworms, either fishing fish and shrimps in the lake and digging lotus roots. Like Zhou Bo, they usually use reeds to make some cold mats and silkworms to sell for a living. In their spare time, they gather together to gamble with dice, or they just fight dogs in the open space outside the city. These idle people are mainly men in their prime. In Chen Xu's eyes, men in Pei County have this kind of virtue and do not seek motivation at all.

The lazy and poorer they are, the poorer they are, the more cunning they are. And the more dissatisfied with society, they will fight in the street if they have a little quarrel. Fishermen and idle gangsters are like two gangs, which are very chaotic.

This is what Chen Xu learned in Pei County.

On the evening of the fifth day, Xiao He, Cao, Liu Bang, Zhou Bo and others gathered again at Fan Kuai’s house to eat dog meat. This time, Fan Kuai’s wife’s attitude towards Liu Bang was much better, and she was busy preparing wine, meat and meals for warm hospitality.

"I'm leaving tomorrow. Have you ever thought about it?" Chen Xu asked after drinking a few mulberry wine.

"Bo is willing to follow Mr. Xu to Xianyang and escort his son to Wuzhong. However, the younger sister at home is still young, so she may not be able to take care of Zhou Quan!" Zhou Bo doesn't speak much, and these days he will send some crabs and loaches to Jiangbeiting Mansion every day. Chen Xu also invited him to stay in the Jiang Mansion for dinner and drink. The two are already familiar with each other, and Zhou Bo also clearly replied that he would follow Chen Xu to Xianyang.

"Don't worry, Brother Zhou, your little sister can be temporarily placed in our mansion and taken care of by the servants. After a few days, we will come back to Xianyang and follow him to Xianyang. If it is inconvenient, it's okay to wait until the autumn comes, when our Jiang Mansion sends people back to Xianyang, we will take them together!" Jiang Chuxing said with a smile.

"I feel relieved if I'm so arrogant!" Zhou Bo bowed happily to thank him.

"Young Master Xu, Ji is willing to follow you to Wuzhong!" Liu Bang was the second to stand up and express his opinion.

For a person who has great ambitions, Chen Xu's appearance this time is definitely a good opportunity for him that he has never had before, and Xianyang is also full of temptation for him.

Xiao He and Caosan stood up one after another and bowed respectfully and said: "Young Master Xu invites you warmly, and I am willing to follow you!"

"Kuai is also willing to follow Mr. Xu to Xianyang to make a living!" Fan Kuai also stood up and said slightly restrainedly.

"Haha, okay, don't worry, you will never let your talents be buried after going to Xianyang. To celebrate your wise choice, let's have a drink together!" Chen Xu stood up happily.

"Please, I will rely on Mr. Xu in the future!" The group of people held up the stoneware wine glass with excitement.

A cup of mulberry and red wine was gone in one go, and then they ate large pieces of meat and drank wine in big mouthfuls, and ate and drank a large pot of dog meat and two jars of red wine in a lively manner. Then they went to the garden to listen to songs and dances together until dark, and they went home to pack up their greetings.

Chen Xu was very happy that this trip to Pei County can be said to be full of return, and he directly captured all the gangsters who started Liu Bang in the future. He not only fooled Liu Bang, but also won all his subordinates Xiao He, Cao, Zhou Bo and Fan Kuai to his subordinates. Compared with the young and energetic Xiang Yu, people of Liu Bang are more pragmatic, have no strong spirit and great ambitions. The most important thing is that he has no deep hatred with Da Qin, and he cannot say that he must move Da Qin down. Overall, Liu Bang's gang and Xiang Yu are not comrades on the same front, so it is easier to control.

"The Marquis is busy with affairs and Beiting is not convenient for a long time. When you go to Wuzhong, you can arrange for Xing'er and his servants to handle it all the way, but..."

"Just what? Lord Jiang said bluntly, as long as Xu can do it, he will never refuse?"

Back in Jiang Mansion, Jiangbeiting Pingbing's family and servants fled to Chen Xu to have tea and chat in the living room.

"Sanniang also wants to follow the Marquis to go to Brother Wuzhong to relax. I wonder if it is convenient?" Jiang Beiting asked a little hesitantly.

Chen Xu:...

"Mr. Jiang, Xu Guan, Miss Chu Yue's temperament has changed a lot from her previous one. I wonder if something happened?" Chen Xu hesitated for a long time.

Jiangbeiting:...

Jiang Beiting naturally knew everything about his daughter, but Chen Xu did not know about these things, because this was his daughter's wishful unrequited love, and Chen Xu didn't know that his daughter liked him from beginning to end.

But after getting along for the past few days, although it was a scene of being a show, I could see that my daughter was still very happy and was much more cheerful. Jiang Beiting was still unwilling to let go of this opportunity for her daughter's future.

Once Chen Xu leaves this time, I am afraid that his daughter will really live alone in her life, and she will never be able to pull out the thorn in her heart as a couple.

But this matter cannot be raised to ask Chen Xu to marry her daughter.

The identities of the two families are no longer the same, and Chen Xu has already had three legitimate wives. I heard that Chen Xu had only one business girl in Xianyang as a concubine, and he treated his wives and concubines very fairly and courteously. The possibility of putting his daughter in is very small. Once Chen Xu didn't agree, it would cause irreparable consequences, and Jiang could not afford this consequence.

"Yue'er used to be young and ignorant, so she was a little willful and willful. However, as the years go by, her habits have changed. However, the people in Pei County are tough and there is no familiar friend, so she is lonely. Beiting is busy with official duties and cannot persuade and take care of her. She was familiar with the Marquis in Chi County, so she felt much better after seeing the Marquis. Here she could take her to the eldest brother's place to relax. Then she would return with Xing'er. If the Marquis feels inconvenient, she would assume that Beiting had never said this!" Jiang Beiting gritted her teeth and forced her to explain.

"Since Lord Jiang said that, Xu agreed. The road may be a bit inconvenient, so it is convenient to take care of it. Please arrange a few maids to accompany you all the way!" Chen Xu agreed after a brief consideration.

"I would like to thank you for this Beiting!" Jiang Beiting breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to thank you.

"Haha, Lord Jiang, don't use this. If Lord Jiang hadn't taken care of him in Chi County, maybe Xu had already lost his body by Zhao Gao. Don't worry, Xu would take good care of Miss Chu Yue. Xu would start traveling tomorrow morning. If Lord Jiang has items to bring to the county magistrate Jiang, please prepare in advance and I will take it by the way tomorrow!"

"It's so good, it's getting late, so Beiting will not disturb the Marquis' sleeping. I'll send him off tomorrow!" Jiang Beiting quickly stood up and sent Chen Xu out of the living room, and arranged for the maid to take Chen Xu to wash and sleep.

Watching Chen Xu leave, a graceful woman slowly walked out from behind the living room and knelt in front of Jiang Beiting and kowtowed: "Thank you for your fulfillment!"

Jiang Beiting sighed and helped his daughter up, and said with a serious expression: "Yue'er, everything in the world cannot be forced. Dad doesn't know whether it is right or wrong to do this, but you must not be able to bump into Qinghe Hou willfully. You have no marriage with him, and you cannot force it. I hope that after this time, you will listen to your parents' words and find a husband to get married after you come back, so that your parents' wish will be relieved, and your family will not worry!"

"Dad don't worry, Yue'er will follow her parents' arrangements when she comes back. Her daughter will take her leave and go packing her greetings and sleeping. Daddy will also take a rest soon!" Jiang Chuyue bowed softly.

"Well, go!" Jiang Beiting nodded slightly, looked at his daughter's lonely figure leaving the living room, then leaned on the chair and sighed again, closed his eyes and grabbed his beard and stared blankly.

After washing up, Chen Xu was also lying on the bed covered with reed mats, in a daze.

The room was lit with cattails, mosquito coils made of sandalwood and mountain chrysanthemum leaves, and the scent of blue smoke rose in the shaking candlelight, and a strange fragrance filled the room.

The room was quiet, and outside the window, the Milky Way rang across the sky, and the stars were as bright as the galaxy, rendering the night extremely deep and beautiful.

When he came to Pei County this time, Jiang Chuyue's change made him feel as if he had become two people, and he was definitely not pretending.

He is not a fool either. Through the past few days of getting along and observing, the Jiang family always gives Jiang Chuyue the opportunity to be with her alone. Whether it is eating or chatting, the two of them must be left behind in the end. Moreover, this time, using this fiance to conceal his whereabouts, Chen Xu slowly felt Jiang Beiting's thoughts.

That is to give him this daughter.

But Chen Xu could not agree to this matter.

Since Shui Qingrou left without saying goodbye, he has almost cut off any idea of ​​remarrying his wife and taking concubines.

With his current status, it is easy to get a beautiful concubine, but it is difficult to get a confidant.

Shui Qingrou is his only confidante. In fact, the identity of a husband and wife is not important. What is important is that Shui Qingrou's position in his mind cannot be replaced. Without Shui Qingrou, he feels that many things are missing in his life, so he has become much more indifferent to women.

Besides, Jiang Chuyue is not the type he likes. At most, he can be an ordinary friend and never have the idea of ​​marrying him.
