Feng Yu sat on the carriage behind Yu Gui and looked at the north gate of Xianyang Palace.
Following the call of the Qin army, a majestic figure wearing a black royal robe, surrounded by many Qin army generals, walked out of the palace.
The figure had a handsome face, narrow eyes, and was indescribably majestic and intimidating.
Fengyu and Fengji were dozens of meters away, looking at it from a distance, they still felt that figure affecting the power of heaven and earth. The powerful aura naturally exuded with every move made people dare not look directly at it.
Feng Yu immediately withdrew his gaze, and Feng Ji beside him showed a look of shock.
The person who came out was undoubtedly the Lord of Qin.
And just as Zhao Huaizhong walked out of the Qin Palace and boarded the carriage calmly, the shouts of tens of thousands of Qin troops suddenly stopped.
In the vast Xianyang, you could hear a needle drop in an instant, which made everyone in the Butian Sect feel incredible.
What kind of obedience is required to implement orders and prohibitions to this extent?!
No orders were needed, tens of thousands of people rose and fell in unison.
The next moment, countless Qin troops lined up in order, followed Zhao Huaizhong's carriage, merged into the accompanying escort, and headed for the north gate of Xianyang.
Yu Gui and the people from the Butian Sect also followed Zhao Huaizhong's carriage.
The team left the city from the north gate of Xianyang and meandered all the way to the northwest.
Outside the city, there are two Qin army troops with tens of thousands of soldiers, wearing armor and armed with weapons, riding horses and accompanying the Lord of Qin.
The 20,000 Qin army is the real military appearance.
The momentum formed by the 20,000 cavalrymen was like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, sharp and unparalleled. It was also like a mountain and sea in front of them, so heavy and heavy that it made people breathless.
In the carriage, Feng Ji looked at the advancing Qin army array from a distance, and whispered to Feng Yu: "The Qin army is so powerful!"
Feng Yu nodded slowly. What she saw today made her very surprised.
"What is the origin of this Qin army?"
Feng Yu asked Yu Gui, who was riding on the back of a red horse and following beside the carriage.
"This is the Great Qin Forbidden Army, composed of veterans of the Qin Army, with a total of 80,000 people.
Although it is a forbidden army, it is not used to protect Xianyang. The king said that such a Qin army staying in Xianyang is a waste of military strength. Therefore, whenever a war occurs, this Qin army will rush to the front of the array to fight the most difficult battles and fight fiercely.
Not afraid of death."
Yu Gui's cold and indifferent eyes shone with a strange look, and she said slowly:
"When the Qin Dynasty destroyed Han Dynasty, this Qin army was a sharp sword and took Xinzheng, the country of Han Dynasty.
The 50,000 Korean troops stationed in Xinzheng were vulnerable to this Qin army.
The Qin army took the lead in attacking Wei, attacking Zhao, and raiding the Qin army. Building an invincible force through a hundred battles was the King of Qin's requirement for this Qin army.
Months ago, the demon clan on the western front of Qin attacked. There were 60,000 Qin troops fighting against the demon clan on the western front, and the remaining 20,000 people were attacking Zhao.
The evil threat intensified, and 70% of the 60,000 veterans of the Qin Imperial Army died on the Western Front.
Today the King of Qin personally left the city to pay homage to the souls of the Qin army who fought for the Qin Dynasty."
Yu Gui breathed a sigh of relief: "Before I returned to the church, Deputy Pope Feng asked me to evaluate the Qin Army. I said at that time that the Qin Army was a hero who had fought in hundreds of battles. What Deputy Zong Feng sees now is this soldier who has fought in hundreds of battles."
After the Qin army left the city, their speed suddenly increased.
Tens of thousands of cavalry roared, heading northwest along the official road like sharp swords.
After marching for dozens of miles, tens of thousands of people remained in formation without anyone talking to each other.
Only the clanging sound caused by the collision of the armor's leaves with each other due to the marching movements of the soldiers continued to sound, which was extremely chilling.
They were all cavalry, and it only took half an hour to march dozens of miles.
Ahead, a mountain appeared in the distance.
A newly built stone tablet stands on the top of the mountain. The stone is as textured as snow and shines brightly in the morning sun.
Fengyu's cultivation was advanced, and from a distance he saw a huge word "Qin" written on the stone tablet.
There is only one big character in seal script, but the font is vigorous, like a dragon crouching and a tiger perching.
Below the large seal script characters, there are eight ancient characters written: "Millions of military souls, forever guarding the mountains and rivers!"
The signature at the lower part reads the name of the Qin monarch Zhao Huaizhong, with the courtesy name Zheng, and the seal of the Qin king is also stamped below.
When Feng Yu saw the content of the inscription on the top of the mountain, she felt an inexplicable heavy feeling in her heart.
About seventy miles northwest of Xianyang, there is a small county named Liquan (now Liquan County)
There is a military commander mountain fifteen miles northeast of the county seat.
In later generations, this was the tomb of Emperor Suzong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Heng, who built the mausoleum.
The Tang Dynasty built major imperial mausoleums in this area, which was regarded as a geomantic treasure. Li Heng was the third son of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and the eighth emperor of the Tang Dynasty. The mausoleum was built with an altitude of up to 1,000 meters, overlooking the Zhaoling Mausoleum in the east and the Qianling Mausoleum in the west.
.
The Qin army lost tens of thousands of old soldiers in the battle on the Western Front.
Zhao Huaizhong came to the scene in person to supervise the battle and saw that the soldiers were brave and sacrificed their lives.
He immediately ordered a monument to be set up near Xianyang, occupying the Feng Shui location of the Tang Dynasty in later generations, and changed the Military General Mountain, seventy miles northwest of Xianyang, into a place for Qin soldiers to worship.
August 7th is the day Zou Yan personally noted as a suitable day for memorial service.
Therefore, Zhao Huaizhong personally came out of Xianyang and led the generals and soldiers of the Qin army to pay homage to the countless soldiers who had died fighting for the Qin Dynasty in the past.
At the foot of the mountain, Zhao Huaizhong got off the chariot and slowly climbed up the Military General Mountain surrounded by many famous generals of the Qin army, including Yang Ruihe, Nei Shiteng, Meng Wu, Meng Tian, Wang Ben and others.
On top of the mountain, a platform was built, with bronze beasts standing at the four corners to suppress evil.
The generals who followed Zhao Huaizhong to climb the mountain stopped behind him.
Zhao Huaizhong stepped forward alone and personally offered sacrifices to the Qin Army stone tablet that was erected like a long sword and was nine feet high and seven feet nine inches wide.
When Zhao Huaizhong bowed slowly in front of the inscription, he saluted the stone tablet.
The wind and clouds in the sky changed instantly, lightning flashed and thundered, and the earth trembled, as if the heaven and earth were in mourning.
High in the sky, blackbirds screamed loudly.
After a while, raindrops fell.
It seems that because of Zhao Huaizhong's obeisance, strange phenomena suddenly appeared in the heaven and earth, and it screamed and rained for him.
In this era, the king of a country should only worship heaven and earth and ancestors.
It is very rare for a monarch to pay homage to the souls of dead soldiers in person!
So when I saw Zhao Huaizhong worshiping the military monument, behind him, the generals of the Qin army were all moved and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty!"
Boom!
There were thunder and lightning in the sky and heavy rain.
At the foot of the mountain, tens of thousands of Qin soldiers knelt down spontaneously, and together with Zhao Huaizhong, they paid homage to the souls of countless Qin soldiers who fought for the Qin Dynasty.
On the top of the mountain, behind Zhao Huaizhong, all the Qin army generals knelt down.
Some generals had tears in their eyes and their emotions were agitated.
Zhao Huaizhong came to pay homage to the Qin army in person, and being able to receive a courtesy from the monarch made many soldiers feel that they would die without regrets.
The general is at the foot of the mountain.
Feng Ji said to Feng Yu: "You and Yu Gui worked hard to promote the move of Butian Sect to surrender to Qin. I have always had doubts in my heart. Today I can see the appearance of the Qin army and the leader of Qin.
At this time, I actually regret that we could not surrender to Qin sooner."
Feng Yu said warmly: "It's not too late now.
So, do you agree to dedicate the things sealed in the church to Lord Qin?"
Feng Ji glanced at the mountain again.
The Lord of Qin was walking down the mountain. The sacrificial process was not complicated. Zhao Huaizhong didn't even say a word, but the depth of this silence was even more shocking.
He came down from the mountain, walking like a dragon and a tiger, and boarded the imperial chariot with impressive momentum.
The team then set off back to Xianyang.
Feng Ji withdrew his gaze: "I agree to dedicate things to Qin. From now on, I, the Butian Sect, will do our best to assist Qin in establishing its achievements without any ulterior motives."
Feng Yu nodded: "Good!"
That afternoon, Xianyang.
After Yu Gui entered the Qin Dynasty, she made many meritorious deeds and was rewarded for her merits. Her residence in Xianyang was a large house with four courtyards.
In the area where she lived, there were also many good ministers and famous generals of the Qin army, and most of the three princes and nine ministers lived nearby.
At this time, Yu Gui was walking quickly into the main hall of her residence, and said to Feng Yu and Feng Ji, who were waiting here after Wu Jiangshan came back: "Your Majesty has given me special permission to the men of the Butian Sect to come to the palace immediately to pay my respects."
Fengyu and Fengji immediately stood up and tidied their clothes. They were inexplicably nervous about meeting the great Qin hero.
Half an hour later, Feng Ji and Feng Yu followed Yu Gui and entered Xianyang Palace under the guidance of the chamberlain.
When several people approached the main hall of Xianyang Palace, they heard voices coming from the hall:
"Your Majesty, Han Tingwei and Li Si jointly proposed to establish a selection system in our Great Qin to select talented people from all over the world, and select the best among them through assessment to join our Great Qin as officials.
What do you think, Your Majesty?" Lu Buwei's voice said.
Zhao Huaizhong is discussing with his ministers to reform the Qin people's official system and formulate unified regulations.
Historically, China’s imperial examination system began in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
Previously, it had been an election and hereditary system, lacking unified standards.
Han Fei and Li Si's proposal were actually given by Zhao Huaizhong behind his back.
Together with Lu Buwei, the four monarchs and ministers worked together to prepare to reform the inherent system of Da Qin.
You must know that the implementation of the imperial examination system will offend the inherent powerful class, which is not an easy task.
In particular, the Qin clan, which enjoyed the benefits brought by the hereditary system, rose up in opposition.
The imperial examination selection means a complete change of the official system. For those whose inherent interests have been violated, it is equivalent to robbing their jobs and shaking their foundation, so the resistance is very strong.
Even though Zhao Huaizhong is the leader of the country, he still has to cooperate with Lu Buwei, Han Fei, and Li Si to promote the implementation of this reform step by step.
This is not the case in the imagination where the king only needs to speak and things will be implemented immediately.
During this period, the reform of relevant systems has been discussed for several days.
The opposition from the clan's dignitaries was so fierce that even King Zhuang Xiang did not support his son this time.
Lu Buwei, Han Fei and other senior officials from Zhao Huai's faction braved the pressure and argued fiercely with the ministers at court meetings every day.
The introduction of the imperial examination system was conducive to selecting talents, recruiting people from the five countries to join Qin, and promoting the development of Qin.
The imperial examination system is also the future trend.
Fundamentally speaking, it is conducive to balancing the contradictions among various social strata.
However, if it is promoted improperly and triggers a counterattack by the established classes, it will be a disaster rather than a blessing, so we need to be cautious.
Within Da Qin, Han Fei received Zhao Huaizhong's instruction. When he first proposed the proposal, he wanted to conduct scientific examinations every two years. However, considering the current social situation, he did not directly do it in one step and proposed to conduct scientific examinations once a year.
However, the clan class was completely shattered and strongly opposed it.
After the game between the two sides, the current decision is to conduct scientific examinations every four years and reduce the number of selections.
Zhao Huaizhong was very dissatisfied with the progress of the matter, but he was inevitably restricted by the established social structure, so he nodded in agreement and asked Lu Buwei to implement it according to the four-year scientific examination system to see the effect first.
While everyone was discussing, Yu Gui brought Feng Yu, Feng Ji and other senior officials of Butian Sect into Xianyang Palace.
When Lu Buwei and other ministers saw that there were many people coming to submit their orders, they all became accustomed to it and looked at the people of Butian Sect up and down.
Feng Yu and Feng Ji looked at each other, bowed to each other, and went to see Zhao Huaizhong.
Then there was a routine of his own.
Zhao Huaizhong encouraged the people of Butian Sect a lot, allowing them to stay in Daqin with peace of mind.
Then comes the much-loved gift-giving part.
Feng Yu stepped forward in person, presented a wooden box, and asked the chamberlain to bring it to Zhao Huaizhong.
Feng Yu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please take a look at the contents of the box first."
Zhao Huaizhong opened the box.
There were several items donated by the Butian Sect. Zhao Huaizhong picked up the top item, which was an ancient scroll.
When he saw the contents of the ancient scroll, he asked Fengyu calmly:
"Have you, the Butian Sect, ever verified the things described in this volume?"
Feng Yu said respectfully: "I have verified it, otherwise I would not be proud to present it to the king.
This object was left by the Yin Shang Dynasty and is also related to the Yin Shang Secret Palace. It is confirmed that its true existence is a special small cave world.
I, the Butian Sect, will use this to contribute to the Qin Dynasty. I hope that the power of the Qin Dynasty will become stronger and stronger, and that the king can achieve great achievements as soon as possible."
