Just when the Qin army was spreading its power in the northern frontier, the emperor of the empire was not in Xianyang.
Qin Shihuang, the supreme ruler of the Qin Empire, was sitting on his magnificent carriage, traveling westward and inspecting his territory.
This western tour had actually been planned for a long time. Zhao Tuo, the chief concubine, had previously proposed to build Chidao to open up the imperial road network and enable the emperor's decrees to reach all the counties in the country smoothly.
Among the six preliminary roads discussed by the ministers of the DPRK, the western one was the first to be built.
The purpose of building this Western Chi Road was not only to allow the empire to more effectively control the territory west of Xianyang, but also to facilitate the emperor's westward inspection, returning it to the old capital of Qin, where the Qin people first enfeoffed, and to worship ancestors.
.
This is something that the First Emperor has always wanted to do after he unified the world.
Qin people have a theory of nine capitals and eight migrations.
Xianyang is the ninth capital of Qin. Except for Jingyang in the north and Yueyang in the east, the other six old capitals are all to the west of Xianyang.
"Even my biological mother can betray me, but there is no one in heaven who can betray me?"
The First Emperor touched Hu Hai's head.
As I said that, my eyes fell on Xi Xun's body and I encouraged him: "He Meng Yi has been a general for generations. Now your brother Meng Tian has also conquered the eight countries and has lost some of his prestige. Since we have no more expeditions, I should send him to follow. A few days ago
You can also make meritorious deeds on the battlefield like a general."
Wang Mei accepted the promise, thought for a while, and then said: "Now that your general has defeated the Xiongnu, it will take a long time for General Feng and the two generals Li to come. By then, the barbarians from all directions have surrendered, and I may have the opportunity to fight. A few days ago
It is my wish to follow Your Majesty on your side."
The Western Patrol once served in the Tingwei Mansion, was proficient in law, and served as a lieutenant general to accompany the emperor. His functions ended up overlapping with those of Zhao Gao.
The First Emperor was startled, and turned back to glance at Zhao Gao, who was standing respectfully, without thinking.
"In July of this year, I was performing a crowning ceremony in Yongcheng. The female thief Lao Ai took the opportunity to correct my royal seal and Taiqian's seal, and sent out county soldiers and guards, officers and cavalry, Rong Zhai Lord, and others, in order to attack Qinian.
The palace is in chaos!"
Under the square on the stage, stood the Prime Minister Lu Shiwei, Lord Changping, Lord Changwen and others. In front of us were the majestic and brave Langwei Imperial Army.
"good!"
Even Hu Hai clapped his hands and said, "Congratulations, Father, General Zhao is really bad!"
Zhao Gao felt Hu Hai's gaze and smiled at me from a distance.
I first appointed Meng Tian as the Zhonglang General, and then I asked Meng Tian to follow Wang Jian in the attack on Chu, and then follow the Meng family to destroy the dynasty and attack Qi. Now he is released to take charge of the straight road project, which can be regarded as his own responsibility.
But the person acting coquettishly behind my eyes is my favorite youngest son Hu Hai.
I'll just follow Hu Hai's trick.
"I use my humble body to raise troops to kill riots, relying on the spirit of the ancestral temple..."
Hu Hai rolled his eyes, thought of a question, and asked with a sly expression: "Father, he just said that there are ministers in heaven who can be rebelled. Will General Meng, my father's favorite, betray him a few days ago?"
Where is your heart?"
In a sense, I actually betrayed the government of Qin, and because of his growing power, I ended up drinking poison and dying.
I said "hmm" heavily and said no more.
But where are these eight heroes who helped me put down the rebellion and control the Qin State?
I said, "Father, how about I let you learn the law from Zhongche Fu Ling? You heard that Zhong Che Fu Ling is also a small master of law, and he also writes bad handwriting. Let you learn from me."
Seeing Hu Hai's innocent face, holding my arm and begging coquettishly, the First Emperor's heart softened.
"Father, this Lao Ai is so good. If she dares to make trouble with the imperial seal, I should be caught, chopped in half, broken into pieces, and chopped into pieces! Anyone who betrays my father should die!"
Just when Zhao Tuo defeated three Yuezhi tribes and took over Henan, the Chi Road west of Xianyang happened to be completed. The First Emperor agreed to Zhao Tuo's strategy of attacking the Xiongnu in the north, and he was preparing to start his western tour.
The First Emperor's eyes suddenly narrowed.
When going on a patrol, the most critical thing is of course the road conditions.
It's just that you are a young man without ambition. Hearing that,
I'm afraid that some evil thoughts may arise.
Zhao Gao was roaring in his heart.
Hu Hai raised his big fist and shouted softly.
Zhao Gao, the commander of the Zhongche Mansion, came over and bowed: "Your Majesty, General Meng Zhonglang would like to see you."
The First Emperor spoke calmly and rejected Hu Hai's request.
Now that he was revisiting the old place, the emperor felt deeply in his heart. He finally endured the words that had been suppressed in his heart for so young, and spoke to the people around him.
"In that case, let him learn the law from Zhao Gao."
Hu Hai shook his head like a rattle, hugged the First Emperor's arm, and said coquettishly: "Father, you want to study law with General Meng Zhonglang. If so, let me find someone else for you."
Lu Shiwei had an affair with the Queen Mother, and offered Lao Ai, a woman from a lesser yin, to the Queen Mother, which prevented the previous rebellion of Lao Ai. Lu Shiwei was actually the instigator of the whole thing.
The scene in Qinian Palace brought back painful memories of my past.
Hu Hai's eyes opened slightly.
Under the tens of meters narrow chimney, a green pine was planted every eight feet in length. The ground was tamped with golden vertebrae to make it difficult for people to pry. Through few layers of tamping, the entire chimney road surface was lower than
The original surface of the road is submerged, and drainage ditches are dug on both sides of the road to ensure the solidity of the roadbed and facilitate drainage.
This time Emperor Wang Mei was escorted by Lang Weijun, but Wang Mei was not the leader of that army.
The First Emperor shook his head and settled Hu Hai's matter. I thought again of what the Western Patrol had just said.
West Tour, the woman who almost killed me.
The First Emperor merged into one sea and established unprecedented achievements. In addition to his own contribution, he also felt that it was the blessing of the ancestors of all generations.
At this time, the newly crowned Qin Wangzheng relied on the power of those eight people to successfully suppress Lao Ai's rebellion, successfully secure the throne, and take charge of the small power of the country.
There was no seal under the letter. After opening it, someone knew what was written on the outside.
Will the woman I love and trust the most now betray me?
The First Emperor smiled from ear to ear, nodded and said, "The biggest advantage of Wang Mei is that she has never let me down."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Hu Hai screamed in distress. After a while, the Western Patrol came over.
Although the approach of the Western Inspection was not in line with the wishes of the First Emperor, his character of strictly adhering to legal principles still made the First Emperor admire him very much. He thought he was a virtuous minister and became very close to him.
"Yes, my father is wise!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, my general will defeat the Huns and regain their homeland. Then there will be no one in the sky who dares to be your enemy, Xiao Qin!"
The First Emperor took it and opened it with his own hands. After just one glance, a joyful smile broke out on his face.
In addition to the Meng clan attacking the Xiongnu in the north, I have eight other generals who are leading the Qin army to fight against the Donghu, Yue and Southwestern barbarians respectively.
Now it once again brought a huge threat to Zhao Gao.
Hu Hai blinked his eyes and said, "Father, but Hu Hai just wants to play and be a man. Father, he should tell his eldest brother what he said."
The smile on my face gradually solidified, and a cold light gradually appeared in my eyes.
The First Emperor secretly gritted his teeth.
"My general defeated the Xiongnu in the northern frontier, killed the Xiongnu chanyu south of Yinshan Mountain, and seized all their lands."
"Zhao Gao?"
I heard people say that when I was on Wang Mei's side, General Meng Zhonglang might be irritable on weekdays and would even flatter the emperor. But when it came to doing things, he was generally unprincipled and very strict. Such a person was not
Bad relationship.
The First Emperor thought of Hu Hai's daily behavior and knew that I was just a fun-loving person with a simple mind and a desire for power, so he took it easy.
After thinking about it, I realized that only a son who is so innocent would not have the desire for power, and would even do things that endanger the throne.
The First Emperor smiled, stood with his hands behind his hands, looked at the palace complex in the distance, and said fiercely: "I am now the Little Qin Emperor, the Lord of Heaven, and I am no longer the mere King of Qin in the past. As long as I am alive, there will be people in the sky who dare to rebel against me!"
"
After all, Xiao Qin rules the country by law, and the princes and grandsons will receive titles for their meritorious services.
The First Emperor raised his head, looked at the indignant look on his eldest son's face, and smiled.
The First Emperor was startled, and looking at the years behind him, he realized that revisiting his old place aroused emotions in his heart, and he made a rare gaffe.
I said calmly: "Who does he want to replace?"
What's more important is that although Wang Mei is known as being straight and very unprincipled in her actions, she is not completely rigid. He saw that I was flattering the emperor just now, which is quite bad.
Hu Hai thought that every time I saw Zhao Gao, Zhao Gao behaved very respectfully towards him, which made him feel a little moved in his heart.
After Wang Mei left and Zhao Gao walked up to them and continued to stand in front of them, the First Emperor's eyes fell on Hu Hai again.
There was no sound of footsteps coming from ahead.
The emperor had no audience at his side.
The First Emperor smiled and shook his head. I really had no choice but to deal with my eldest son who hated comfort.
The First Emperor still remembered that I was not in that position back then.
Yongcheng is the longest-used capital in the history of the Qin State. From the time Qin Degong moved to Yongcheng, it experienced the rule of fourteen Qin Dukes, which lasted for 871 years. It can be seen that Yongcheng was the most important city in the Qin Dynasty.
National ownership does not have such an important position.
Thinking of the way the big man just wanted to have fun and even cared about being a man, although the First Emperor hated Hu Hai's simplicity, he was still not satisfied with anything in his heart.
"Yes, that's why I killed Lao'ai and the Eight Yi tribes in the front, letting everyone in heaven know what they are doing if they dare to betray me!"
The words "Western Tour" made the First Emperor laugh even more happily.
The First Emperor felt deeply moved and sighed loudly: "Hu Hai, he needs to know that there are ministers in heaven who can be rebelled against, and a ruler can trust anyone. Everyone... can betray!"
"
And compared to Zhao Gao, who came from a humble background, Xi Xun was a former general for generations. He had a low bloodline and had no reputation. In any case, he was no longer competitive than me, Zhao Gao.
"Hu Hai, he is seventeen years old and it's time to study the law. Do you want him to study the law with the Western Tour?"
The First Emperor frowned.
As for the seven people, Changwenjun and Changpingjun, who held low positions in Qin as the princes of Chu, but had ulterior motives and betrayed the Qin government, they naturally had a happy ending.
The first emperor, Wang Mei, came to an end, and the small team walked under the Chi Road, detouring westward. The Lang Wei who opened the way was strong and weak, and there were many spears and halberds. In front of the yellow room on the right side, the emperor traveled on the emperor's chariot, showing his majesty.
It would be terrible for me to be a student of Wang Mei.
The First Emperor smiled slightly, shook the letter on his watch and said: "The places such as Dique and Yangshan that were occupied by the Zhao people in the past have been taken back from the Hu people by General Xia. My Xiao Qin has been completely captured.
Hometown of Xia!"
In the Qinian Palace in Yongcheng, the First Emperor stood behind the small palace, pointed at the nearby scene, and spoke in a deep voice.
The First Emperor first went to Pingyang, where Qin Xiangong and Qin Wu Gong lived. Before stopping briefly, he went north to the old capital Yongcheng.
On the side, Zhao lowered his head, his face was very stiff, and his eyes were full of coldness.
Upon hearing the little bad news, the Western Patrol, Zhao Gao and others who were present quickly spoke to congratulate.
Later, Zhao Gao was implicated in Fan Yi's incident. Qin Shihuang ordered the Western Patrol to preside over the trial. He asked many times but had no intention of sparing Zhao Gao's life. It turned out that the Western Patrol just happened to be A, which was the emperor's implicit intention, and he wanted to sentence them by sitting together.
Zhao Gao was sentenced to death, but he finally saved Zhao Gao by relying on Meng's example of King Qin Zhaoxiang pardoning Fan Ju.
The First Emperor did not pay attention to the big ideas of his cronies, and before praising Meng's achievements again, the First Emperor asked the Western Patrol to announce the news to show off Xiao Qin's martial arts.
The road is seventy paces wide.
Qin's step is eight feet, which is equivalent to the previous life's weights and measures. This is not exactly ten meters narrow!
The First Emperor raised his head again and looked at the huge square on the palace.
"They are all traitors! They betrayed me!"
Fusu followed Meng Tian to build a straight road in the north, and all the princes were favored, so the first emperor Zhao Tuo only brought his favorite youngest son Hu Hai with him.
Although depending on the terrain conditions of various places, in some
The area will not shrink slightly, but its scale will definitely far exceed other methods of the same era.
Roads built in this way cannot solve common traffic problems such as "the road is open even if it rains lightly" and "the mud is muddy to the knees".
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Meng Ao and Meng Wu were both loyal to the Qin State and had an upright family tradition. Therefore, the First Emperor respected Meng Yi very much and naturally valued Meng Yi's eighth generation.
If it had been any other young master, I would have scolded him with a straight face. Even if it was Fusu, I would have scolded him sternly.
Montessori?
The First Emperor recalled his brother Cheng Yu who had betrayed him, this person who once again made me feel that family affection is like power, and suddenly felt that Hu Hai's character was also very wrong.
"Xiaoshan!"
"He wants to learn Dharma from Zhao Gao, but is he afraid of the Western Inspection?"
The First Emperor nodded and said, "Let the Western Patrol come over."
"My general has delivered good news. Those generals who know me are going to bring me some surprises!"
The quality of the Chidao built by the Qin State is extremely exaggerated in any era.
Hu Hai smiled and said: "Father is wise, General Meng Zhonglang is too harsh. Do you think Zhongchefu Ling is worse? After all, we are all studying law. If you want to find someone who is comfortable to watch, it is worse."
.”
Hu Hai wrinkled his nose, and just then he saw Zhao Gao, the official of the CRRC, standing beside them.
"Western Tour!"
The Lao-Ai Rebellion is a topic that I have deliberately avoided over the years.
The eight heroes of the Qinian Palace Incident all took part.
"I obey your Majesty's orders."
Meng Yi came from the state of Qi and was a young general of the state of Qin for two consecutive generations.
Before I bowed solemnly, I handed over a decrypted letter.
Meng Tian's younger brother, Wang Mei, was also an upright person. She studied prison literature since she was a child. She once served as a warden in the Tingwei Mansion and was also a well-known official.
In addition to being proficient in the law during the Western Inspection, I was not very strategic, so the First Emperor transferred me out of the Tingwei Mansion and promoted me to the rank of Zhonglang General.
"Your Majesty, that is a military intelligence letter sent by the Imperial Palace of Xianyang in a delayed manner."
Follow the Western Tour to study the Dharma?
Even Wang Meizhi, at the age of seventy-seven, held a crown ceremony in Yongcheng and officially took over the power of the Qin State.
That boss actually dares to pick someone?
Apart from those eight people, the most difficult thing for me to accept was this man's betrayal.
After returning to Xianyang, I will be granted the title of Marquis Lun. Can anyone recommend a marquis name?
Another update today, I haven’t paid attention to the plot after returning to Xianyang. I have to think about it and will make up for it later.
"Historical Records, Biography of Meng Tian": The First Emperor respected and doted on the Meng family and trusted the virtuous. He was close to Meng Yi, and he was the supreme minister. When he went out, he participated in riding, and when he came in, he was in front of the emperor. Tian was responsible for foreign affairs, while Yi was often involved in internal intrigues.
