my grandfather was qin shi huang

"Liaodong and Liaoxi?"

When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help but frown slightly, and turned to look at Zhao Ying aside with some confusion.

Liaodong and Liaoxi were originally the lands of the ancient Yan State. During the Yan Kingdom, counties and counties were set up here, the people were relocated, and the two areas were developed.It not only brought the advanced ideology and culture of the Central Plains region to this place, but also brought advanced agricultural and handicraft production technologies.

After the Qin State destroyed Yan, it further strengthened its rule over eastern and western Liaoning. It not only built the Northern Great Wall of Yan State, but also built Chi Road, opening up the transportation network. One of the most important trunk roads can go from Liaoning to Hangu Pass. Directly to Xianyang.

But even so, the two places are still sparsely populated. After all, compared with Guanzhong and the Central Plains, it is still too cold here. This famous Beidacang in later generations has not attracted enough attention from people. Even the First Emperor did not pay enough attention to the food production in these two places. Zhao Ying nodded with certainty, "Liaodong and Liaoxi, although the weather is extremely cold most of the year, they are rich in products. The land is also extremely fertile. If it is cultivated well, it may become an important grain producing area in our Daqin.

The First Emperor nodded slightly and said without comment, "Have you ever thought about where the manpower to open up wasteland and cultivate fields comes from?"

After the unification of the Qin Dynasty, the First Emperor moved the people of the world many times, but no matter how he moved, he could not avoid a basic truth, that is, the world had been fighting for many years, and the population was seriously underpopulated. The most important thing is that Beidacang at this time was still worthy of the name of the Great Northern Wilderness. , for a long period of time afterwards, it was even a place where the imperial court exiled criminals. In this era, one can imagine how difficult it was to move the people here. "Now that Donghu has been destroyed, the Xiongnu have no time to take care of themselves, and the pressure on our Qin border is Greatly reduce my suggestion, follow the measures taken by Hexi County and implement military settlements!

The First Emperor's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard this. Zhao Ying's actions in Hexi were made known to him. He naturally knew the benefits of military settlements. Compared with those idle farmers, the advantages of such an organized young man to open up wasteland and cultivate land were , it is too obvious, but the efficiency is not the same. In this way, it not only solves the problem of labor shortage, but also greatly relieves the pressure on military rations and promotes the development of eastern Liaoning and western Liaoning.

"Good! You can discuss this matter with Nei Shiteng and work out a feasible plan as soon as possible. Zhao Ying helped lay the last big green brick, and then the two of them stood up from the shed with a smile. , the palace maid waiting on the side had already prepared warm water at a suitable temperature, and the two of them washed their hands naturally while chatting.

Then, Zhao Ying calmly performed another set of Tai Chi and felt that the Qi on his body became more and more intense and lively. The First Emperor also felt that his body was warm and comfortable. The morning was still very simple. In addition to the unbeatable fish balls, the First Emperor drank a portion of wolfberry millet porridge and two small steamed buns stuffed with chives.

Zhao Ying had a few steamed buns, a pot of hot porridge, and a pot of fat and thin stewed venison. In this season, the wild venison stewed with Northeastern old wild ginseng is nutritious and delicious. It is really not a rare treasure.

After finishing his meal, Zhao Ying reached out and took the wet wipe handed over by the palace maid, wiped the corners of his mouth casually, and then stood up.

"General Zhao Tuo has been a long-time veteran of Baiyue, and has personally brought fine seeds to our Dafeng. Thanks to his hard work, I am ready to welcome him personally..."

The First Emperor waved his hands speechlessly, "Go, go. The many years of detention in Lingnan on the Weishui River have made his complexion dark and rough, and he has a vague attitude of the locals. He is not convinced by the handsome young man's appearance back then, but he has a pair of eyes." , still shining brightly, showing the depth and wisdom accumulated over the years.

At this time, he stood on the bow of the ship, looking at Xianyang City getting closer and closer in his field of vision, with a trace of sadness in his eyes. After many years of separation, I, Zhao Tuo, am back again. At this moment, his eyes suddenly focused.

I saw a small boat speeding across the river, with a Daqin captain in black armor standing on the bow. The small boat did not come close, but stopped far away in the river.

"On the ship, is General Zhao Lun in person? Your Majesty has ordered that the emperor's eldest grandson will personally greet the general outside the city. Please make preparations in advance."

When Zhao Tuo heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect that the famous emperor's eldest grandson would actually come out of the city to greet him. "It's Zhao. General, please tell me!"

After receiving Zhao Tuo's personal response, the captain who came to deliver the message did not stop, turned the ship's bow, and sailed away.

Zhao Lun ordered his ships to slow down and give way to the bow of the big ship.

Although he had been away from the Central Plains for a long time, as an important minister of the Qin Dynasty, it was impossible for him not to pay attention to Zhao Ying, the eldest grandson of the Emperor of Qin who suddenly emerged.

Naturally, we know Zhao Ying's current status in Da Qin.

He asked himself that he had not had much interaction with the legendary Emperor's Grandson, and he did not expect that he would come to greet him in person. But he reciprocated the favor. As a minister, he had to know how to advance and retreat. Of course, he still didn't know at this time why he wanted to do so. In Lingnan, Meng Tian gradually seized control and was gradually favored by the emperor's grandson. It was all because of the instructions of the emperor's eldest grandson. It was even the emperor's eldest grandson who suddenly sent him to recruit high-quality seeds.

Otherwise, I am afraid that I may not be able to maintain my current mentality.

Zhao Ying had seen the statue of the King of Nanyue in his previous life. The statue was majestic and powerful. But when he saw the real person today, he realized that the statue in later generations could not be said to have nothing to do with the real person. Yingwu looked similar to an ordinary old farmer in Lingnan in later generations, but his eyes were deep and bright, and when he stood there, he had a magnanimity that could not be ignored.

"General Zhao, you have worked hard all the way!"

Seeing Zhao Lun standing among the crowd from a distance, Zhao Ying had already smiled and greeted him. "Your Majesty Zhao Tuo, I have seen His Royal Highness the Emperor's Grandson Zhao Tuo. He was about to bow in return, but Zhao Ying had already taken a step forward. , holding his arm.

"When I was alone in Xianyang, I had long heard about the name of General Zhao. He was the hero of the world for his ability to conquer Lingnan and conquer Baiyue. He was an outstanding strategist. I had long wanted to ask for advice in person. Unfortunately, the general was far away in Lingnan and could not be seen. Today I finally met him. Real person!"

Zhao Ying laughed heartily and had sincere eyes. Zhao Lun was still a little depressed at first. At this time, seeing the legendary emperor's eldest grandson, who later rose to prominence, being so humble and courteous in front of him, and also having such high regard for him, he felt in his heart. I couldn't help but feel a little more comfortable.

He struggled a bit and tried to get rid of Zhao Ying's big hand, but failed. He could only raise his face slightly and looked at Zhao Ying's enthusiastic smile. "Your Highness is too complimentary. I am just following the tail of General Tu Sui and General Meng Tian. Although It was just a matter of fulfilling my duties as a minister. His Highness should not praise Zhao Tuo so much when he returned to the capital. His Highness the Emperor Sun came out to welcome him in person. It was so honorable that the First Emperor also received him in person. He discussed his merits and rewarded him on the spot. Bai Yin wanted to set up several palaces with the highest titles in the Qin Dynasty. When the time came, the First Emperor personally encouraged General Zhao, "It's been a hard journey all the way, General Zhao. Let's go back to the house to recuperate for a while. After a while, I have another important position for Zhao Tuowen." He said, his body stagnated slightly, and then he bowed deeply and saluted, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!"

Although the First Emperor didn't say it clearly, he understood what the First Emperor meant, which was that he had other arrangements for him. He couldn't go back to Lingnan. His many years of management would be completely in vain, and Meng Tian would be advantaged for nothing!

For a moment, his mind was churning with thoughts that were difficult to understand, until he saw his gray-haired old father, his wife, who had long lost her beauty, and their two and a half sons, who had already been waiting at the house for a long time. Outside the door, when he arrived, his eyes finally softened completely.

He took a few steps forward and knelt down to his father with a thud, his voice choked with sobs, "Oweng, the unfilial son Zhao Tuo is back. However, the joys and sorrows of people are not the same.

Just as Zhao Tuo was getting together with his relatives, Han Xin, the newly promoted Jingbian Marquis of Great Qin, finally arrived in Huaiyin.When they heard that Jingbian Hou Han Xin had returned to his hometown, the Huaiyin County Magistrate and Huaiyin Township elders all dispatched ten miles out of the city and waited at the end of the road early in the morning.

This is a big shot from Huaiyin County.

When he went out, he was still a down-and-out young man, but when he came back, he was already a marquis. The speed of rise is so fast that it can be called a legend. This made the county magistrate, village elders and others who came out of the city to greet you, including Yourong Yan, but not everyone, feel quite uneasy. That was what happened in the past. Han Xin and his old wife, Ting Ting Ting Chang, went to Nanchang to go to the countryside. In the past, when Han Xin was down and out, he often went to his house to have a meal.

At the beginning, the director of the Nanchang pavilion was quite polite to him, but Han Xin didn't look cool. He caught a family trying to pluck wool, and went there every now and then, every now and then, for several months in a row. In the end, in the end, The woman who headed the pavilion in Nanchang couldn't bear it anymore.

Knowing that Han Xin was coming to eat again, he cooked the rice early in the morning and ate it in bed.When it was time for dinner, Han Xin arrived on time as expected.

However, the Nanchang pavilion chief and his wife, who were determined to get rid of Han Xin, pretended not to know and let him wait no matter how long they wanted, without preparing any food for him.

As a result, Han Xin became angry and waved his sleeves away, never to eat from his family again.As a result, he almost starved to death after losing his long-term meal ticket as the pavilion chief of Nanchang.

How hungry are you?

Even the old lady washing clothes by the river can see it. I really couldn't stand it, and they provided him with meals for several days in a row. Anyway, it was quite miserable for a man.

The pavilion chief and his wife of Nanchang thought they had finally got rid of a scourge, but who would have thought that this scourge, who only talked about it all day long, would turn around just after leaving Huaiyin.

He became the new Jingbian Marquis of Great Qin!

Who should he reason with? At this moment, he and his wife were summoned by the county magistrate to greet his old friend. However, he had no intention of welcoming Han Xin and could only hide in the crowd welcoming Han Xin uneasily. I wish that Han Xin would never find out about him. However, he was afraid of everything.

Soon, after Han Xin exchanged a few words with the Huaiyin County magistrate who came to greet him, he discovered the Nanchang pavilion chief and his wife dodging in the crowd.

Holding the long sword in his hand, he strode forward.

"Isn't this the face of the Nanchang pavilion chief and his wife? I wonder if the wise couple still remember the old Han Xin who couldn't afford it?"

When the Nanchang pavilion chief and his wife heard this, their hearts suddenly clenched and their clothes were wet with sweat.

"I have seen the Marquis of Jingbian, and I have asked the Lord to pay more attention to the crime of offending the young couple. Looking at the trembling and frightened Nanchang Liang Pavilion Chief and his wife in front of him, Han Xin looked at it for a moment, and suddenly smiled, He waved his hand casually.

"General, I am returning home this time, firstly, to pay homage to my ancestors, and secondly, to pay homage to my relatives and friends. Although you are an out-and-out villain, you do favors for others, but you cannot stick to it, but after all, you are the one who once served. Provide me with meals for the next few days, general."

Having said this, Han Xinran said, "Don't worry, Xinxin is not a freeloader. I should pay back tenfold for the food I gave you in the past!"

After saying that, he waved his hand and was treated as if he was offering thousands of dollars.

"This should be repaid to you!

The head of the Nanchang Pavilion became more and more frightened. His wife looked at Han Xin, who was no longer what he used to be, and couldn't help but glance at the Qin banliang held in the guard's hand.

Wanting to, but not daring to reach out, Han Xin looked down at the couple who had neglected him in the past, and shook his head slightly.

He motioned to the guard to send the money over.

At this time, the Huaiyin County Magistrate realized that he had made an mistake, and his eyes fell on him. For such an important event as welcoming Jingbian Marquis, the County Magistrate naturally worked hard. Not only himself, but also all the officials came out. He also called all the Nanchang pavilion chiefs who were related to Han Xin and had interacted with him. When he said this, Han Xinran said, "Don't worry, Xin is not a freeloader. I should pay back tenfold for the food I gave you in the past!"

After saying that, he waved his hand and was treated as if he was giving thousands of dollars, "This should be repaid to you!"

The head of the Nanchang Pavilion became more and more frightened. His wife looked at Han Xin, who was now different from the past, and couldn't help but glance a few times. The guard held Qin Banliang in his hand, but he didn't dare to reach out. The couple shook their heads slightly and signaled the guards to send the money over.

At this time, the Huaiyin County Magistrate realized that he had made a mistake and actually invited the two guys who had offended Han Xin in the past as benefactors...

He quickly stepped forward to remedy the situation.

Walking up to the head of the Nanchang Pavilion, he scolded, "You are a villain if you don't end up doing good deeds! Today, Marquis Jingbian is magnanimous and won't care about you. Why don't you hurry up and thank me?"

The head of the Nanchang Pavilion looked ashamed and could not speak.

On the contrary, his wife was quick to see the opportunity.

"Yes, yes, yes, the little woman is short-sighted and caressing about everything. The little woman will go and apologize to the Marquis!

As he said this, he pulled his man, who was a bit unable to hold his head up, to apologize to Han Xin again. As a result, Han Xin waved his hand indifferently.

That's all, you and I have settled our grudges, there's no need to be like this...

Seeing that Han Xin really didn't care anymore, the magistrate of Huaiyin County couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The head of the Nanchang Pavilion also gave up half of his thoughts, but was too embarrassed to stay any longer, so he took his wife and ran away in despair.
