After some discussion, Qing Ji and his ministers formulated a relatively complete "Tian Law".

For example, in February in spring, Chinese people are not allowed to go to the mountains and forests to cut wood, block waterways, burn grass as fertilizer before summer, pick newly sprouted plants, or catch young animals or eggs, etc.

Poison kills fish and turtles.

It was not allowed to set up traps and traps to catch birds and animals, and the ban was not lifted until July.

Only those who need to cut down wood to make coffins due to death are not subject to seasonal restrictions.

Those who live close to Zao and other forbidden gardens for cattle and horses are not allowed to go hunting with dogs when the young animals are breeding.

Chinese dogs that enter forbidden gardens and hunt animals are not allowed to be beaten to death; those who chase or capture animals must be beaten to death.

Dogs killed in specially designated warning areas must be turned over to the government in their entirety. Dogs killed in other forbidden areas can have their meat eaten and their skins turned over.

The amount of cuo (grass for livestock) and grain (stems of cereal plants) payable for each hectare of land shall be paid according to the amount of land received.

Regardless of whether the land is cultivated or not, three stones of cud, two stones of millet, and more than enough bunches of dried leaves and grass must be paid for each hectare. When payment is made, they can be transported and weighed.

The number of grain, grass, and straw bedding removed from the grain and millet must be reported immediately to the county government. The wood and straw bedding should not be used for other purposes, but should be used to cover the grain and grass.

If the feed for driving cattle and horses has not been collected or delivered for two months after the expiration date, it will no longer be distributed.

Those who collect from Datian without setting up a fixed account will be issued according to the date on which the voucher was received, and shall not exceed the stipulations of the voucher.

This kind of "Tian Law" of Wu State is not imperfect!

Its content mainly involves several aspects such as farmland water conservancy and mountain forest protection.

It is stipulated that the area of ​​farmland benefited after rainfall must be reported in a timely manner, the situation of crops suffering from wind, insects, floods and droughts and other natural disasters, and arbitrarily cutting down of mountains and forests is not allowed...

This is a written code of environmental protection, promulgated and implemented more than 2,000 years earlier than the West!

…

While the State of Wu continued to maintain the momentum of peaceful development, the State of Chu to the west was preparing to launch an offensive against the State of Zheng.

At this time, in the Zide Hall, Qing Ji, who had nothing to do, was sitting across from Fan Li, the governor of Su Nei.

Play chess, play Go.

Qing Ji, this stinky chess player, is very addicted to food, he is good at food and loves to play.

Although he couldn't beat Fan Li at Go, Qing Ji still enjoyed it.

Qingji preferred to "find abuse" in Fan Li's place compared to Bo Xin, Wu Zixu and others who often let the chess go to him.

"No more playing, no more playing."

Seeing that all his pieces on the chessboard were dead ends, Qingji said in a lack of interest.

"Your Majesty, I accept the concession, I accept the concession."

Fan Li smiled slightly.

"Young Master, I can't beat you in Go. However, there is a kind of chess that you can't play in Go."

"What chess is it?"

Fan Li was a little surprised.

"Glue slippery!"

Qingji waved, and Jiao Hua, who was waiting at the entrance of the palace, quickly brought a chessboard and a bunch of round chess pieces.

The chessboard is divided into "Chuhe" and "Wujie". One side has black characters and the other has red characters, which are very clear. Words such as "handsome", "cannon" and "car" are engraved on the chess pieces.

"The Xiang Qi of Chu State (sounds the same as chess)?" Fan Li asked misunderstanding.

Xiang Qi, as Fan Li calls it, is a chess game that is relatively popular in the south.

It is said to be the prototype of chess, with six black and white chess pieces each, played by two people.

Because Xiang Qi was the most popular in Chu State, Fan Li added Chu State before Xiang Qi.

Qingji shook his head and said, "No."

"This is chess, a chess game of chess pieces. And it is very different from other chess games. The chess pieces include rooks, horses, soldiers, and cannons. These are all used for offense."

"There is also a prime minister, a soldier guarding the commander. Once the commander is killed, it will be a failure. It is like a battle formation, completely different from Xiang Qi!"

When Fan Li heard this, he immediately became interested and said: "In this way, it is really like marching to fight, but what is this cannon? Why is there no bow?"

Qingji explained: "A cannon is a crossbow, and when attacking, you need a chess piece in front, whether it is the enemy's or your own..."

Qingji introduced the functions and moves of each chess piece with great interest, and Fan Li was also deeply attracted by the chess mentioned by Qingji.

Just listening to the chess game sounded like the two sides were marching and fighting, which made Fan Li look forward to the arrival of the chess game even more.

Between the questions and answers, half an hour has passed.

Fan Li really couldn't beat Qing Ji in chess.

But he couldn't stand it. Fan Li was smart by nature and had strong learning ability, so he soon became inseparable from Qing Ji.

"Master Shao, the King of Chu sent a letter yesterday, inviting me, the State of Wu, to attack Zheng together. Shao Bo, do you think this is credible?"

Qingji used his "car" to eat Fan Li's "cannon", and then said slowly.

Fan Li didn't panic at all. After hearing Qing Ji's question, he immediately chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, this is not surprising."

"Now the situation between Wu and Chu has been reversed. Wu is strong and Chu is weak. The Chu people do not dare to go eastward. They are also afraid that Wu will cause trouble in the future and send troops to attack Chu, so they choose to attack Zheng Ye."

All in all, in one sentence.

The Chu people were already frightened by the Wu army and did not dare to fight with the Wu army.

Like last time, Wu Guo didn't care about the little fight, but if he really wanted to cut a piece of flesh from Wu Guo's body, Wu Ge wouldn't care?

There are many knowledgeable people in Chu State.

Xiong Zhen, the king of Chu, saw that the state of Wu was getting stronger and stronger, while the state of Chu was still standing still, and he felt very anxious in his heart.

Therefore, the Chu people set their sights on the Zheng State in the Central Plains, hoping to tear off a piece of flesh from Zheng State, or even destroy Zheng State, to make up for the city and land they had lost in previous Wu-Chu wars.

This wishful thinking is very good.

But, how could Jin tolerate it?

"In your opinion, should Wu take the opportunity to attack Chu, or should we unite with Chu to attack Zheng?"

Qingji asked meaningfully.

"Your Majesty, I think this is not allowed."

Fan Li shook his head and said: "The people of Chu intend to lose something in the east and gain something in the east. How can your Majesty let Chu succeed? As for taking the opportunity to attack Chu, we must be fully prepared."

"If our country of Wu goes to war, we will defeat Chu in one battle and even destroy Chu. We should not be careless in engaging in national wars."

"good."

Qing Ji's ideas coincided with Fan Li's.

The State of Wu is still in a period of peaceful development, and it is not in the interests of the State of Wu to engage in war at every turn.

Joining forces with Chu to defeat Zheng undoubtedly gave the Chu people greater advantages.

In other words, Chu State eats meat, but Wu State, which is out of reach, is destined to only drink soup.

Moreover, the State of Zheng borders the State of Jin, and although there is a lot of turmoil in daily life, the State of Jin cannot just sit back and watch the Chu people bully Zheng State.

"Your Majesty."

At this time, CRRC Mansion Ling Jiao Hua suddenly walked in step by step.

"What's the matter?"

"Hua Bao, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, asks for an audience."

"Tang Kingdom?"

Qingji frowned, quite surprised.

If he remembered correctly, the Tang State should be the only state within the Chu State.
