Chapter 111 Zhang Zifang

In the 26th year of the First Emperor, Qi was destroyed as a county, and it was divided into four parts, that is, Jibei County in the west, Langya County in the south, Linzi County in the middle, and Jiaodong County in the Jiaodong Peninsula.

On the north bank of Jishui in Linzi County, there is a place called Di County (now Gaoqing, Shandong). Like many counties in the four counties of Qidi, the local powerful and powerful families are all surnamed Tian. This history can be traced back to the period of Tian Chengzi.

In order to expand the strength of the Tian family, Tian Chengzi selected Qi women who were more than seven feet tall as concubines, and allowed his followers to come in and out at will without prohibition.

As a result, there were more than 70 sons, and these sons were later entrusted to all parts of Qi to be emperors, laying the foundation for the future Tian family to replace Qi.

Later, after the demise of the Qi State, although the first emperor moved 12 powerful households from all over the world to Guanzhong, he did not change the pattern in which the Tian family was the most powerful in Qi.

Although Zhutian is no longer a feudal monarch, it is still a land of fields with hundreds of children.

After all, the Tian family has thrived in Qidi for hundreds of years and is deeply rooted.

The state of Qin can reduce them to the head of Guizhou, and it can also take away their benefits of mountains, rivers and swamps, but it can't take away Tian's control over Qidi for hundreds of years!
In order to eradicate their influence within a period of more than ten years, there is no other way but to imitate Chang Gong's saying that "a stone must pass a knife, and a person must be changed".

At this time, the tyrant in Di County was Tian Dan, the royal family of the old Qi Dynasty.

Like the low-lying vegetation when a strong wind passes through, after Wang Ben wiped out Qi, Tian Dan distributed a fraction of his deep house and compound to his cousins ​​Tian Heng and Tian Rong.

In this way, he escaped the imperial court's order to relocate.

On this day, outside Liju where Tian Dan's family lived, three men came in a hurry.

The leading one was a middle-aged man, wearing a green curly train, about forty years old, with a long beard reaching to his chest, and a slightly dark complexion, but if you look closely, his facial features are handsome, and he must have been a handsome gentleman when he was young.

Behind him is a strong man with a height of nearly ten feet and a waist circumference of five feet, and the other is a vigorous young man looking around with a tense expression on his face.

The prison gate guarding the gate of Liju looked at the strong man with some fear, intending to prevent him from entering Liju, but finally let him go without saying a word.

The three of them didn't walk for long in Liju, and they stopped in front of a tall courtyard, but what caught their attention was not the irregularity of the courtyard, but a man in black official uniform kneeling at the gate. Qin official.

"The world is full of common people kneeling down to officials, but in Qi, officials kneel down to common people..."

The middle-aged man smiled and shook his head, and then asked the strong man behind him to knock on the door.

Bang bang bang!
A heavy knock on the door broke the silence inside.

"Who is it? You will pay for the knock on the door!" A young man in his 20s opened the door, yelled a few words, then opened his eyes wide, looking at the uninvited guest outside.

"Zhang Zi!" The young man hastily stepped forward and bowed in salute.

"My brother Tian Rong, you don't have to do this!" The middle-aged man who was called Zhang Zi returned the salute with a smile: "To call me Zhang Liang is..."

Tian Rong straightened up, scratched his head and said, "If brother knows that I call Zhang Zi by his name, he must break my legs!"

Zhang Liang smiled, pointed at the young man behind him and said, "Uncle Xiang, whose name is Tang, and whose name is Bo. He is the youngest son of Xiang Yan, a general of the Chu State."

"I've heard the name of the Xiang family earlier, and I saw it today, so it's so rude, so rude..." Tian Heng clasped his fists again and bowed down.

After the two greeted each other, Zhang Liang pointed to the strong man and said, "My brother Tian Rong, you might as well guess who this is."

Tian Rong raised his head to look at the strong man, and praised a few words: "Could it be that this is the warrior Bo Lang assassinated Qin that day?"

"It's me." The strong man patted his chest.

Tian Heng was slightly speechless, but seeing that Zhang Liang didn't care, he didn't take it seriously.

Before the Tyranny of the Qin Dynasty and the destruction of the six kingdoms, the word "zhen" could be used by ordinary people to call themselves. In order to show their own status, that person did not allow people in the world to use the name "zhen" to call themselves.

However, I didn't think there was anything to this word before, but now it sounds so domineering!From now on, I will use my self-proclaimed name... Tian Heng made a secret decision in his heart, and immediately brought Zhang Liang and others into his home.

"Who is that?" Zhang Liang asked as he saw the door was closed.

"What Zhang Zi said, could it be that he was kneeling outside the door?" Tian Heng said with a smile:
"That's the magistrate of this county, Qin Gou. His dog son trampled on the farmer's seedlings while walking in the countryside. The farmer had no choice but to appeal to his elder brother's door. After the elder brother paid the farmer's losses with his own money, he said that his son had passed. Father paid, so he punished that Qin dog to kneel outside the door for two hours!"

Xiang Bo listened to Tian Rong's narration, and laughed in his heart. Tian Dan punished and knelt down to the county magistrate, how dare the county magistrate's son be arrogant in the county, behind this... but it has nothing to do with me!
After walking for a while, they passed a wide martial arts arena. There were archery targets in the distance, and several weapon racks were placed around the gazebo, with axes, axes, hooks and forks on them.

The martial arts arena is paved with fine sand. At this moment, there are dozens of brawny men with bare upper body and smooth bodies fighting together.

On the other side, several well-built riders with their shoulders half exposed, were riding around the field on horseback, drawing bows and arrows from time to time, practicing riding and archery.

Di County is far away from Xianyang, so the Qin Dynasty's order to withdraw troops has no effect here.

"It's Zhang Liang Zhang Zifang who is here!" A burly man with a short beard on his chin walked up to meet him quickly.

Zhang Liang clasped his hands together, and first bowed to the ground: "I have met my brother Tian Dan!"

Tian Dan looked him up and down, smiled and shook his head: "I haven't seen you for a few months, the ovary has darkened a lot!"

Zhang Liang showed bitterness on his face: "Now the princes are all destroyed by Qin, the king's way is broken, and the tyranny is rampant. There is no place for my generation in the world."

"The Master said, the way is not right, take a boat and float in the sea. So after leaving that day, I went out to sea with Xu Fu. Later, Xu Fu made a bet with me. He said that the man would die in the sand dunes in a few months. To verify the bet, my brother then Returning by boat, I saw him vomit blood and die...but for some reason, the throne was succeeded by Fusu..."

Listening to Zhang Liang's eloquent talk, Tian Dan felt a sticky reptile crawling down from the back of his neck on his back.

The last time Xu Fu went to sea was last year. Before going out to sea, Xu Fu followed that person to patrol the world. Zhang Liang was able to follow Xu Fu to go to sea. Could it be that Zhang Liang was also by that person's side at that time?
If what Zhang Liang said was true, Xu Fu could actually predict the time of the man's death!

And Zhang Liang saw the man vomit blood and died!

terrible……

Tian Dan let out a long breath, and asked seriously: "I don't know why Zhang Zi came here today?"

Zhang Liang looked around at the strong men in the martial arts arena, and said with a smile: "I came here today to reminisce about the old days. But now it seems that Brother Tian has the ambition to spread the world. So I can tell Brother Tian about that big event."

"What kind of event?"

"Just wait for the signal from Xianyang, brother help me recover Korea, and I will help brother recover!"
