"Hehe, Father, you haven't seen a mirage yet, right?"
"When we came here this time, Xi'er and I specially asked the swans to fly to the sea to look for mirages and truly see them all!"
"Father, that mirage is really big!"
"It's bigger than any ship I've ever seen. It's so big that the swan is like a little bird in front of it. There are also many people on it."
"Father, how many more days does it take for the car to reach Songhai?"
"When the time comes, I can go up and have a look."
"..."
The east patrol car will start again.
The two little princesses appeared unexpectedly again. They rode astride the swans and traveled thousands of miles, but they were just lazy. Then they came closer and accompanied the carriage to the east.
The land of Yiyuan has been left behind, and the car is driving leisurely along the north of Yi River. Wherever it passes, there are mostly cities and market towns.
Langya County!
The terrain is fair, with towering mountains, but some small valleys and hills that are constantly undulating.
There are not many rivers like big rivers, but because they are close to the sea, the water flow is continuous all year round, and there are many delicate currents.
They are connected to each other, sometimes they gather together as a main trunk, sometimes they flow into nothingness, and most of them are thousands of rivers returning to the sea, and the journey is endless.
The Eastern Patrol Team, which was a little boring, became more lively and cheerful because of Yang Zi's arrival.
The girl rode a white horse skillfully, full of energy and crisp sounds, looking towards the east with her bright eyes, filled with a different kind of expectation.
"Mirage!"
"When the mirage was first built, my father still knew about it. There is a detailed model of the mirage in Xianyang Palace."
"The mirage above the sea is nine hundred feet long, three hundred feet wide, and six hundred feet high. It is not inferior to some famous mountain places."
"In order to build the mirage, the empire spent millions of gold. If other expenses are added, it will reach tens of millions of gold."
"Such a large amount of wealth is enough to make a county more than ten times more prosperous."
"Mirage!"
"The Yin Yang family, the public loser family, some Mohists from the Shaofu, and the craftsmen all worked together to create it."
"Calculating the time, we can reach the mirage in less than a month, maybe even faster. Many places in Langya County are average."
"Honghu!"
"The phoenix represents the five images, and there are strange beasts in the sky and the earth. What happened to your roc?"
Wearing a black uniform, he was riding astride a tall horse with black hair. Ying Zheng held the reins and felt much happier when he heard Yang Zi's words around him.
Since the Eastern Tour.
I haven’t encountered too many big things, but... many things are also big things if we look into them carefully, and when small things come together, they are also big things.
After all, the land of Shandong is not the land of Qin. It is the land of Qin. It has been bathed in Qin's laws for many years and has long been accustomed to it. Moreover, it is very close to Xianyang.
Many laws can be well implemented and implemented.
After leaving Sanchuan County, everything changed. Although many of the laws promoted by the empire were implemented, not many were truly effective.
That is the purpose and significance of the Eastern Tour.
After going through it, many problems will be solved, and the counties and counties can better advance some things and solve some troubles.
empire!
The empire was so big that it surpassed the three emperors and five emperors, it surpassed the three generations, and its territory was vast, beyond the reach of any temple dynasty.
It is necessary to visit all the lands of the Xia, cast Qin's laws on every inch of land, and cast your eyes and sight on every corner.
Langya County!
There are not many things to do. Compared with Linzi, Jiaodong has much less land, and the people here are not many, so there are naturally few things to do.
Mirage!
The stay outside Songhai was completed last year. Due to the inspection and rectification of the gaps, this year's eastward tour cost the empire a huge price.
The mirage must respond.
"Father, if that bird is in the middle of the pass, it's fine outside the pass. If it can fly thousands of miles, it's still not that good. It still needs to continue to grow."
"Hehe, half a month ago, a bear was caught in the forest north of Pengniao Guanzhong. That bear weighed a thousand catties."
"Xi'er, my mother and I ate one of its bear paws. The rest were sealed off and we will eat them when my father returns to Xianyang."
"Father, will it take a lot of time for Mirage to travel eastward?"
A hair ornament with gold silk and precious jade shines brightly, and the hair moves with the wind, swaying gracefully. The girl gradually grows up.
Peng bird!
The roc in Xianyang Palace is still too small. Although it can be ridden by myself, after all, the original power of the roc is not enough and it cannot last long.
Another year?
Or in two years, when Pengniao condenses the inner elixir, everything will be completely different. What Honghu can do now, Pengniao can do in the future.
But I couldn't help but think of an interesting thing about the Peng bird.
"Hahaha, your filial piety is rare."
"Then we will taste it after my father returns to Xianyang."
"The mirage is traveling eastward. I have asked your master, but the specific time is difficult to determine. Generally speaking, it will be difficult to come back in a year and a half."
"Maybe it will take a little longer."
Ying Zheng laughed, gently smoothed his short beard under his chin, and fully agreed with Yu Yangzi's proposal.
Everyone in Xianyang said that they loved Yangzi too much, but... Yangzi deserved that kind of love from him.
"A year and a half, or even longer."
"Is uncle going too?"
Yang Zi raised his slender eyebrows slightly. It had been a long time. Such a big ship had to travel hundreds of miles in a day, right?
One month is three thousand miles!
Half a year is more than 10,000 miles. The sea area is vast and endless. According to the classics I read, many ships enter the sea area, which is only tens or hundreds of miles away.
There are very few deeper ones.
The huge waves in the depths of the sea are so huge that they can easily reach tens of feet or hundreds of feet. Ordinary ships will be destroyed immediately if they hit them.
Only a ship as big as the Mirage can withstand the waves of the sea and travel deep.
"Your uncle is indeed going."
Ying Zheng nodded.
The purpose of the mirage's eastward journey is to find the fairy mountain in the sea. It is... very far away and needs to be found. The emperor's brother follows it, so he can feel more at ease.
Moreover, what the emperor's brother said was also for cultivation.
In the affairs of the counties south of the Yangtze River, even if there were no princes and the presence of Bai Qianhong, nothing big would go wrong.
That Bai Qianhong has been following the princes for many years, whether in the four counties before or now in the counties south of the Yangtze River.
Many important tasks are handled by Bai Qianhong. Her ability has been proven and she can be ranked as the center and prime minister.
Moreover, the Jiangnan counties do not need any big measures, as long as they can be stable, it is enough for many strategies to be implemented slowly.
"Hehe, father, how about I go with my uncle?"
"As long as uncle is here, everything will be fine."
"Father, how are you doing?"
"We will be back when the elixir from the Yin Yang family is finished."
"I really want to see the depths of the sea."
"Gao'er, do you want to go too?"
With his bright eyes shining, he looked towards the sea again. Above the mirage, there was his master and his uncle, so he could go there.
Staying in Xianyang Palace is quite boring.
And it also takes some time for Pengniao to grow.
Maybe when I return from the mirage, everything will be just fine.
Thinking of this, Yang Zi had many wild thoughts in his heart.
Looking left and right, there was no one following him nearby. My uncle was driving in the car behind and was recording some Taoist and Tibetan classics.
Xi'er went there.
Master also went.
Gao Er was by his side, and he didn't speak much at the moment. When he came from Xianyang Palace this time, his mother also had some instructions.
"You have a lot on your mind."
"If your mother agrees, my father has no objection."
Ying Zheng smiled and said nothing in reply.
This girl... she can't control herself anymore. At the critical moment, she still needs her mother's words to follow the prince on a mirage tour eastward?
With the prince by his side, I don't have much, so I might as well go and see something.
However, I am still a little worried.
After all, the situation above the sea is different from that on land, and everything above the mirage is not as convenient as in Xianyang Palace.
However, I can be sure that Li'er will not agree.
"Sister Yangzi, I...I won't go."
"This time I traveled east with my father. I learned a lot. I also know many of my own shortcomings. I need to improve next time."
The young master, Gao Yuma, was standing beside him, wearing brocade clothes. The young man said little. Hearing his sister's words, he quickly bowed and shook his head.
I am really envious of my sister.
In Xianyang Palace, you can do whatever you want, and there are almost no officials. Your father is very fond of you, and although your mother scolded you a lot, it was still the same after that.
Just...?
"You learned a lot?"
"What have you learned?"
"Mother asked me to ask you, what have you learned from being with my father for several months? She asked you to write a letter and give it to me later."
Yang Zi curious.
I have been with my father for a while, but why haven’t I learned anything or made any progress?
He is also very smart.
"..."
When Young Master Gao heard this, he immediately glanced at his sister with his eyes. Is it his biological sister? Did you ask this?
I said that, of course, I still learned something.
"Gao'er."
"Tell me about it!"
"You have been traveling with me eastward for several months now. You have seen and heard a lot. You should gain something from me and tell me a few words."
Ying Zheng smiled.
What Yang Zi said was very interesting. In a moment, his mood improved a lot. He looked at Gao Er and said the same thing.
"..."
"Father, Gao'er... Gao'er feels that it will take a long time for the land of Shandong to be included in the empire's rule for a long time."
"Many people openly dare not disobey the imperial decree, but secretly they are hindered."
He never expected to be caught off guard by his own sister. Young Master Gao remained silent for a few breaths to adjust his thoughts.
When you bow down, you say something.
"Then...how do you think we should deal with it?"
Ying Zheng asked instead without commenting.
"Father."
"Gao'er thought that... some people are afraid of power and have no morals. Therefore, it is necessary to kill some people to establish the majesty of Qin's law."
"It will be much faster if it is given to advance Qin's law."
Young Master Gao thought for a moment and gave his answer.
"kill!"
"Killing is indeed one of the ways to solve the problem."
"Is there any other way?"
Ying Zheng smiled slightly and asked again.
"Father!"
"Gao'er thought that some wealthy and powerful people from the various counties should be moved to places outside the Guanzhong."
"In this way, when those people leave the country and lose their strength, many things will be easier to handle."
Gongzi Gao gave the answer again.
"Move!"
"It's also a good idea."
"Is there any other way?"
Ying Zheng asked again.
"Gao'er, you've really made some progress."
"I thought you had nothing to gain."
Yangzi looked at someone in surprise.
In memory, Gao'er didn't know those things, but now he was able to talk a little, and his father didn't criticize him.
I realize that what Gaoer said still makes some sense.
"Father, Gao'er... there is no other way for now."
"Sister Yangzi, if I don't make progress while staying with my father, my mother will probably punish me when I go back."
Gongzi Gao thought about it again and shook his head.
He bowed again and then looked at his sister.
"good."
"It can be seen that you still have a good heart along the way. Although there is not much novelty, it is enough."
"When you see more and have more contacts in the future, you will have many strategies."
"Not bad, there are some improvements."
Ying Zheng nodded and looked at this younger son. He was the daughter of Li'er and grew up in Xianyang Palace. He received a lot of attention.
Gao'er's studies are good.
Previously in Xianyang, some small actions were not noticed, but for my son, if he has no means at all, he is not worthy of being by his side during this trip.
The two strategies mentioned just now were what Li Si and the others talked about in their spare time along the way. In any case, Gao Er listened attentively.
I also wrote it down.
It’s not like nothing is gained.
That is Jinyi.
"Yes, Father!"
The young master nodded deeply.
"Now that I have gained something, I will take the time to write a letter so that I can take it back to Xianyang."
"By the way, I want to ask my mother if she will let me travel east with Mirage."
"well."
"Father, just let me go. Mother will probably not let me go. The mirage is going east. Master is going, and so is my uncle."
"Xi'er and I are bored in the palace."
“It’s a little less fun to go to Jiangnan.”
"The last time I traveled with my uncle on an offshore boat, there were a lot of interesting things. There were countless fish in the sea and thousands of species."
"The fish are also very big."
"A fish as big as a horse is nothing in the sea, but fish like that is not very tasty."
"But such big shrimps are very delicious, very big, and coupled with Miss Yan Ling's craftsmanship, they are really delicious."
"Father, you must have never eaten anything."
"Next, we will drive close to the sea. When Miss Yan Ling returns, we must let my father have a taste. Well, I will catch some more and let Honghu send them to Xianyang so that my mother can have a taste."
】
"In addition to delicious food, there are also many treasures, including many coral trees and pearls. I used to think that pearls are naturally round and flawless."
"Later, after I personally took it out of the clam, I realized that pearls need to be polished. Only after polishing can pearls become the bright pearls of Zhuxia."
"I heard from my uncle that there are many secrets in the depths of the sea, and there are even people who make friends. Father, you... just let me go with you."
"My uncle practices Tongxuan. If I want to come back, I can come back."
Yang Ziyue said that he also wanted to go together.
Above the mirage, there is the master, there is the uncle, there is also Da Siming, and there is Shao Siming. They are all familiar with each other.
I will definitely be fine.
Lots of delicious food.
There are a lot of fun things up and down the sea.
It will be even better if we can see the fairy mountains in the sea area.
"As long as your uncle is here, my father will have no objection."
"It's better to ask your mother."
Ying Zheng also knows a lot of information about the sea area.
After Yangzi's last trip to the sea, he returned to Xianyang and said a lot. The sea area... I also have a yearning for it and want to see it. It is vaster than the empire's territory, and its products and treasures are also massive.
After all, compared to other things, things in the sea are nothing.
Guanyangzi looked very expectant and shook his head. He really couldn't make the decision on this matter. The mirage travels thousands of miles eastward, and thousands of miles is too far.
If you want to go to the sea, walking near the sea will be enough in the future.
