Time and space in the heavens

Chapter 383 Shouchun City, Chu Capital

boom!
  The closed door was shattered, and a solemn murderous aura filled the air outside the door. Among the broken and flying wood chips, Liu Ji and his brothers saw more than a dozen dark figures appearing outside the door, each with a sharp aura, as if He can tear them all apart at any time.

When Fan Kuai, Zhou Bo and several other people who had practiced martial arts saw this, they became furious and wanted to take action, but Liu Ji stretched out a hand to stop him.

Liu Ji stopped the impulsive Fan Kuai and others, took a few steps forward, came in front of everyone, faced the killer outside the room, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said:

"You masters of the Sky Curtain, but you don't know how I, Liu Ji, have offended Lord Chang'an, and I want you to come and cause trouble for me?"

"Haha." The leader of the Sky Curtain Killer let out a burst of cold laughter. He seemed to be laughing, but there was only an indescribable coldness in the laughter.

"You can recognize us at a glance as people from Tianmu. Liu Ji, you are really not simple. Lord Chang'an has an order to treat you guys for a while."

"Otherwise, let us take all of your heads back to him at all costs!"

"Hmph!" Fan Kuai was extremely angry when he heard the order from Ying Zihe brought by the Skyfall Killer. "I have heard for a long time that the Qin people are cruel. When I saw it today, it turned out..."

Before Fan Kuai finished speaking, Liu Ji slapped him and shouted: "That's enough, don't seek death."

"Yes, brother-in-law." Fan Kuai is Liu Ji's brother-in-law. He has always been afraid of this brother-in-law. The strong man covered his red and swollen cheeks, as if he was an angry little daughter-in-law, and agreed in a low voice.

After reprimanding Fan Kuai, Liu Jifang raised his head again, faced Ying Zi and the sent killers, smiled freely, and said: "In that case, please lead the way."

"Okay, you really know the current affairs, please!" Sky Curtain Killer made way for a passage and made a gesture of invitation to Liu Ji and others.

Everyone followed the passage that the Sky Curtain Killer made way and walked all the way out of the house. Outside, several large carts led by mules had already been prepared.

Liu Ji and others got on the carriage, and the Sky Curtain Killer drove these vehicles and left the place.

The current capital of Chu State is Shouchun.

It has been decades since the capital of Ying was captured by Wu'an Jun Baiqi and renamed Nanyang County. The Chu people moved their capital to Shouchun.

In the past few decades, Shouchun has completely replaced the former capital of Ying, becoming the most prosperous place in the Chu region.

On the spacious streets, people were coming and going, bustling with people, including dignitaries riding tall horses and spacious carriages, and ordinary people with half-clothed clothes. Everything was so orderly.

The power of the aristocrats in Chu was so great that it surpassed the other seven countries.

In the early years of the Warring States Period, in order to enhance national strength, almost all countries carried out reforms, such as Shang Yang's Reform and Li Li's Reform.

In Chu State, Wu Qi also carried out the reform. The reform touched the interests of the old aristocrats of Chu State. When the King of Chu who supported the reform died, Wu Qi was killed, and the reform was completely abolished.

To this day, the power of the nobles in Chu is so great that even the king of Chu is afraid of it. If you are not a noble, no matter how talented you are, you will not have the slightest chance to get ahead.

The bright sunshine shone on the entire Shouchun City. On the streets where people were coming and going, the nobles were arrogant and the civilians were extremely fearful.

Both nobles and commoners have become accustomed to this innate and destined hierarchy. "Get out of the way, all the untouchables, get out of my way!" On the street, a slightly crazy horse suddenly appeared. On the horse's back, a beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes looked extremely flustered and raised her head. With the riding whip in his hand, he shouted to the person standing in front of his horse's head.

When the surrounding civilians saw a noble lady losing control of her horse, they all panicked and got out of the way. Only an old man with a disabled leg had no time to get out of the way and blocked the horse's head.

The old man was knocked out on the spot, and he was in mid-air. His bones had made a crisp sound, and his chest had a large bulge.

The girl on the horse was so hindered that she could no longer control the horse's reins and fell off the horse.

"Ouch!" The sweet-looking girl fell off the horse and fell to the ground, letting out a scream. Then, burning anger rose in a pair of bright eyes, and he walked towards the old man with his riding whip in hand.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
  The riding crop in her hand was filled with strength and hit the dying old man. The girl whipped the poor old man wantonly while cursing in her mouth:

"Damn old man, you dare to block my horse and make me fall off the horse. Don't you want to live?"

When other people around saw an aristocratic girl whipping a commoner, they were so frightened that they hid far away, not daring to come any closer.

In fact, no one showed even the slightest expression of surprise or dissatisfaction. Obviously, this scene has long been commonplace for them.

After whipping the poor old man wantonly until the old man was no longer angry, the girl threw away the riding crop that was stained with blood in her hand and said bitterly: "Damn untouchable, you soiled my riding whip. .”

With that said, he took the reins of the horse, nimbly got on the horse, turned and left.

As for the body of the poor old man, someone will naturally take care of it.

………………

"Alas!" In a shop on one side of the street, a young man in black sighed heavily as he looked out through the gap in the shop in front and witnessed with his own eyes the scene of the nobles being domineering.

"I have long heard that the nobles of Chu are tyrannical and considerate of human life. When I see them today, they are indeed worthy of their reputation!" His handsome face was filled with deep compassion. "Even for the sake of the people of Chu, I, Great Qin, will destroy Chu as soon as possible and unify the world."

"Your Majesty." Behind Ying Zihe, stood a figure as soft as water and as passionate as fire. Yan Lingji was dressed like a flame. When Ying Zihe said this, she frowned slightly, "You seem to be You’re not qualified to say that, are you?”

"Don't forget, why did you come to Shouchun this time? With the military disaster, I'm afraid the people of Chu will be harmed even more, right?"

Ying Zihe nodded with a look of approval and said, "It seems so. I am the young master of Bao Qin. It is indeed inappropriate to say such things."

"Yan Lingji, how are things going?" Ying Zihe recovered after feeling a little emotional about Chu people's fate.

"Where are all the men and horses?"

Yan Lingji's jade hands were white and smooth, with no flaws at all. She cupped her hands and reported to Yingzi and Zhen in front of her: "We are all in the process of arriving, and it should be almost done in ten more days. "

"It's just, Master, isn't this move a little too risky?"

"If you're not careful, you might..."
