A drop of blood flew towards Ying Wu's face.
On a battlefield where blood is everywhere, no one cares whether their bodies will be stained with blood.
However, he cautiously avoided this drop of blood.
No drop of blood splattered on him.
It's not that he has a cleanliness.
It's not that he wants to pretend.
It's because of habit.
He was the eldest prince of the Great Qin Dynasty. However, no one has seen his domineering attitude in the dynasty or in the ordinary streets and alleys of Changling for so many years after he was sensible and polite.
His personality is actually not as cautious as Guo Qiujue, but in Changling, he seems more cautious than Guo Qiujue and has to walk on thin ice. Even in the past many years, even his younger brother has looked down on him at all, thinking that he is born to be a very ordinary cowardly person, timid and unambitioned, and even feels that he is a little inferior.
However, this is helpless, but it is forced by the situation.
He was a steady personality when he was young, and he was originally like his father, like the old emperor who later went on a sickbed.
But a father who is strong enough and stable enough actually hopes that his son can be more happy. He hopes that his son has the nature of a child. Whether it is willful or unruly, he can enjoy a moment of relaxation and joy after busy and endless pressure on his political affairs.
At those times, the emperor needed the joy of ordinary people.
So at that time, he actually didn't need a particularly steady prince, nor did he need this prince who was very small and immature in his eyes to remind him of some negligence in his political affairs.
It was a little too late when he realized this.
His father no longer likes him very much.
Especially when he changed to try to be the kind of child his father liked, his behavior seemed even more unpleasant in the eyes of the father who had already formed a fixed mind.
Then what can I do?
He was still a child at that time.
Many of his things naturally appear clumsy and hypocritical in the eyes of adults, and even make people feel that they are too scheming.
Just like a young man who is in love with the first impression of a girl when he first sees him, that impression is difficult to change.
What's more, his younger brother is the kind of nonsense boy his father likes very much.
By comparison, his situation became more and more difficult.
Especially when everyone in the court clearly felt that the emperor liked the second prince and hated the eldest prince, he had to try not to make mistakes as much as possible instead of doing something that could be pleasing to others.
This is really difficult for a little kid.
Especially after prejudice has formed.
So just a few years later, when the war between the Great Qin Dynasty and the Chu Dynasty failed, he ushered in a terrible fate. He was sent to Chu and became the host of the Chu Dynasty to threaten the Great Qin Dynasty.
When he was first sent to Chu, the Qin people felt that he had paid a lot for the Qin Dynasty, so they loved him very much. However, as time went by, the more the Qin people fought back because of his existence, the more they were afraid of him, the less and less favorable the Qin people towards him.
He knew very well that many Qin people were even looking forward to him dying in Chu.
He was dead, and the Chu people could not use him to threaten the Qin people.
In Chu, he needs to be more careful.
The Qin people didn't like him, and the Chu people were even more unlikely to like him.
To the Chu people, he was never a prince, but a spoil.
Their eyes looked at him were often similar to those of monkeys.
Although the supreme and powerful people in Chudu would not deliberately target him because of his momentary joy and anger, and would not easily kill him, he knew very well that whether he could return to Changling was entirely based on the preferences of these people.
In the case where the Qin people could not destroy Chu, even if the Qin people could win a big victory, they might not be able to return him. On the contrary, his situation in Chu was even more worrying.
Fortunately, he has grown a lot.
His performance in Chudi is pretty good.
So he finally returned to Changling successfully. With the strength of the Qin Dynasty, he finally gained a place in Changling.
But he left Changling for too long. Compared with the second prince, he seemed unfamiliar to the people in the city, and even not pure enough.
Many people even doubted his relationship with the Chu people, and wondered why he could return to Changling so quickly.
He struggled.
Every step he takes is not only to fight with his younger brother and the powerful, but also to always consider the joy of his father.
good.
How could he be unrestrained in such an environment?
Of course he cannot show any edge.
In the eyes of many people, this is naturally mediocre.
For a long time, he even worried that he would be assassinated or poisoned at any time, so he was very careful in everything, including travel, diet and daily life.
Not being contaminated with anything that is unnecessary is the habit he formed in such an environment.
So even though he knew that the blood that was sprinkled with these soldiers should not contain severe poison, he still didn't want to take any risks.
For him, after walking on thin ice for so many years, he finally stepped across the river with broken ice and cracks, and finally got ashore.
He is only a few steps away from his final success. The more he reaches this point, the less complacent he will be, and cannot be slackened at all.
There was a sound of horse hooves on the road towards Tunliu.
When the people who had arrived in Jiaodong County came with spare horses, all the soldiers who rushed down the hill were dead.
These people from Jiaodong County pulled out the carriage covered with arrows from the pool of blood and corpses, quickly cleared the carriage, and then put on horses.
Looking at Ying Wu, who was calm and steady, walking out of the pool of bleeding, and even his clothes were not stained with blood, these people in Jiaodong County secretly admired him, thinking that this was probably the natural demeanor of the nobles of Changling. In terms of this demeanor, the rich people who live in fishing in Jiaodong County were really incomparable to it.
Yingwu did not board the cleaned carriage immediately.
He walked towards Tunliu, not far away.
He had been sitting in the carriage for a long time, and he actually enjoyed the peace and joy after the victory.
He did not look at the faces of the people of Jiaodong County, but the gaze they cast made him easily know what these people were thinking at this moment.
He has seen too many people, and he has seen too many people of all kinds.
If you talk about inferiority, he knows that these Jiaodong County people who are eager to find opportunities are actually inferior.
No matter how glamorous they were at this time, they still felt that there was a big difference between them and the nobles in Changling City. They envy those people and wanted to be those people.
