When the first person finally couldn't bear the burning fire of gossip in his heart, he started to open the door and walked towards the man with white silk posted not far away, guarded by two strong and sharp postmen.
At that time, Xianyang City, which had been silent for countless mornings and was extremely depressed at this moment, was finally detonated.
This man was wearing a brown short robe, trousers and leggings, and tattoos could be seen on his neck. He was obviously a slave of a large family or an official's family, a pawn who came to explore the road.
I saw this little soldier quietly sticking his head out from a small alley and looking around. He saw that there were no large groups of soldiers ambushing him around. After confirming that there was probably no danger, he shrank back and sneaked towards the white silk hanging on the wall.
go.
From time to time, he would stop and look around slyly, with his ears raised and his body stiff, completely acting like a thief. At this time, even if there was the slightest movement, he would probably run away immediately.
Under the nervous gaze of countless pairs of eyes, the man finally walked not far from Bai Juan. He stopped first, then looked around again, and finally turned his eyes to the two postmen guarding Bai Juan. After a while, they met
The two of them didn't move their feet at all and began to approach step by step with small steps.
When he moved a few feet away from Bai Juan, he stood still, but the two postmen were still motionless. At this time, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief, first bowed deeply to the two of them, and then tensed his body and distanced himself.
Look at the white silk hanging on the wall.
Obviously he was literate, but no one knew what he was looking at. It was just that countless pairs of eyes hidden behind the cracks in the door and windows clearly saw that the body of the first person who saw the white silk gradually began to tremble like a sieve.
, and then sprinted away at a speed of 100 meters with a look of panic and excitement on his face.
Went back to report the news!
From the beginning to the end, the two strong-armed postmen did not move at all, like two statues.
The weird behavior of the first person completely ignited the gossip cells in the hearts of the remaining people who were still waiting and watching, and the first person successfully approached Bai Juan and left safely, completely letting them put down the last thoughts in their hearts.
A trace of doubt.
The second, the third, the fourth... one after another, people began to open the door and swarmed towards the wall hung with white silk.
At first, everyone was still uneasy and did not dare to make any noise. They all silently gathered in front of the white silk.
But a moment later, when everyone standing in the front row saw clearly what was written on the white silk, they could no longer control the shock in their hearts, and a huge sound suddenly sounded.
When the people in the back row heard the people in the front row talking excitedly and incoherently, such as "His Majesty whipped him," "Edict of sinners," "Exemption from Yao Fu" and other unexplained words, they all felt as anxious as cats' paws.
Everyone wanted to fly to the front row to have a better look, so they squeezed forward as hard as they could.
Then the crowd suddenly became confused. With the continuous push from the back row, the people in the front squeezed in front of the white silk little by little. They kept hearing curses such as "the shoe has fallen off".
The whole of Xianyang gradually boiled with the surge here, and countless people walked out of their homes and rushed to the nearest place where white silk was hung.
Seeing that the surging crowd was about to rush to the white silk, the two postmen who had been standing still like sculptures moved at this moment. With two clear sword sounds, "噌噌噌", the two of them stepped forward together.
With one step, the surging crowd was frightened and retreated in panic.
But the people behind were still pushing forward, and some people were constantly being pushed to the ground, and there was a sudden cry of crying for their fathers and mothers.
"Do not violate His Majesty's edicts. Violators will be executed!"
A postman shouted loudly with a cold face, his long sword half out of its scabbard.
"You are not allowed to make noises, crowds, or trample! You can find a literate person to read out His Majesty's edict on the white silk. If anyone takes the opportunity to cause trouble, behead the troublemaker!"
Another postman also shouted loudly with his long sword half drawn.
The noisy crowd finally calmed down, and the bloody head in the market yesterday was still there.
At this time, a literate scholar in the front row began to read aloud the edict written on white silk.
"Hai was appointed by Heaven to take over the great position. He should have worked hard to govern and appoint talents to use their talents, so as to achieve great governance in the world and the peace and happiness of all people. However, the sycophants close to Hai treated Zhao Gao, bullied Hai's young age, deceived my sage, and falsely claimed my name.
, abuse of power, harsh punishments, excessive taxation, and murder of loyal people, leading to chaos in the government, turmoil in people's hearts, and the loss of all people. These are all crimes that I have not noticed.
…………………………………………
Fortunately, with the blessing of the First Emperor, Yu Hai was awakened, God bless the Qin Dynasty, and the good generals and soldiers worked hard, so that Hai killed the Zhao thieves and patrolled the east.
Although Jin Gao was executed, the evils had not been cleared up and the people's hearts were in turmoil. The survivors of the Six Kingdoms took advantage of the chaos and wanted to restore the building by destroying the building, trapping the people in fire and water. Hai regretted not doing so. This is Hai's crime.
Now that I have issued an imperial edict to punish myself, I am willing to reduce the expenses to benefit all people, and I will take thirty lashes on myself in the imperial city, so that all people in the world can watch.
In order to turn the tide of the Qing Dynasty and rejuvenate the country, I hereby issue this edict to show my ambition. I hope that all people in the world and all the virtuous and upright people in the world will observe and encourage them. April 11, the first year of the Second Emperor of the Qin Dynasty

"Stop the construction of the Lishan Mausoleum, the construction of the Lishan Palace, and the construction of the unfinished straight road. All the laborers recruited in these three places are released and allowed to return to their hometowns, and the counties along the road are not allowed to create difficulties. All laborers are given one stone of food for each person.
compensate.
April 11th, the first year of the Second Qin Dynasty."
"Abolish the "Shiwulian Sitting Law", abolish the "clan punishment", and exempt the world from corvee taxes for one year. April 11th, the first year of the Second Emperor of Qin Dynasty."
After the scholar finished reciting, the surroundings were silent.
The bright red jade seal was covered with white silk cloth, and no one doubted the authenticity of these three edicts.
a long time.
"Your Majesty the Second Saint is wise!" "God bless the Qin Dynasty!" "Your Majesty, you can't do that!"...
There are those who kowtow and kneel, there are those who howl in pain, there are those who run around crying, there are those who mutter to themselves...
The same scene happened in the early morning of April 11th, the first year of Qin II, in Xianyang, the capital of the Qin Empire, where people gathered at various white silk sites. On this day, Xianyang was completely boiling.
And the initiator of all this, His Majesty the Second Emperor of the Great Qin Empire, was lying on the dragon bed drooling, sleeping sweetly with the dream of embracing all the beauties in the world.

"Hurry up, hurry up."
"By capturing Chen County, you all will be the heroes of the founding of the country. You will be able to honor your ancestors and gain glory and wealth at your fingertips."
"If you go to Chen County, except for the treasury and granary, you can take whatever you want."
…………
"The first one to rush into Chen County will be granted the title of Marquis and feed ten thousand households."
Chen Yu was riding on his horse, shouting loudly and running forward and back.
Every time he shouted, there would be a huge sound of howling ghosts and wolves. Everyone seemed to see the countless gold and silver treasures, silks and satins and women with graceful figures in Chen County waving to them.
And the promise of granting food to thousands of households made everyone forget the hunger in their bellies and the countless rocks and thorns under their bare feet.
Countless rioters holding hoes, bare feet and ragged clothes gritted their teeth, had red eyes, panted heavily, ran and roared as hard as they could. The rioters all over the mountains and plains were like locusts swarming towards Chen County, which was still in the morning light.
go.
Chen County is just ahead!
