Good Life in Qin Dynasty

Young Master Cheng Jiao failed to appear in front of King Zhuang Xiang's spirit in the end, and went directly to the Leng Palace with his mother who had lost the virtue of a wife.

If there were no accidents, they would spend their entire lives in the cold palace.

Afterwards, Lu Buwei always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

It was Ying Zheng who asked Li Jiyang during dinner one night, "What did Cai Ze say?"

"I didn't say anything." Li Jiyang put a piece of green vegetables into his mouth: "I told you, he is very smart and knows what to say and what not to say."

"That's good." Ying Zheng was very satisfied with Cai Ze's performance.

Before the Spring and Autumn Period, there was no such thing as mounds and tombs, and there was a custom of "in ancient times, tombs are not graves". Later, for the convenience of identifying sacrifices, tombs began to appear in the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period, and they piled up higher and higher. By the late Spring and Autumn Period, they were as high as 15 meters. of.

Beginning in the middle of the Warring States period, the tombs of the kings began to be called "mausoleums", and a strict hierarchy was formed without overstepping.

The inner and outer coffins are called "coffins" with a certain space outside the coffin and a layer of "coffins". According to the identity of the deceased, the thickness, material, color painting and number of layers of the coffins are also different. Ten weights, five weights for princes, three weights for officials, and even more weight for scholars", while the common people have coffins but no outer shells.

But now that the majesty of the emperor of Zhou is no longer there, the coffin of King Zhuang Xiang has eight layers!

Although it is less than ten heavy, it does exceed the regulations of the vassal states on "Marquis".

Who cares?

Ying Zheng wished he could put ten layers of coffins on King Zhuang Xiang!

was dissuaded.

"My lord, it's not that the ministers don't want to do this, but that they can't. Nowadays, the kings of all countries use eight-layer coffins, and the ten-layer coffin is too conspicuous!" Lu Buwei was the first to object.

At this time, the state of Qin should not show off too much. After all, now that the lord has passed away, even if the eldest son ascends the throne and becomes the lord, he is still young after all.

Countries are also bound to be ready to move, they can't give people a handle!

"Azheng, the adoptive father is only the lord of Qin now. In the future, you can postulate him!" Li Jiyang also knew that now is not the time to act on his own will, and there is no difference between the ten-fold coffin and the eight-fold coffin.

"My lord, please withdraw your order!" All the ministers also tried their best to prevent this matter.

"Okay!" Ying Zheng nodded, agreeing.

When he returned to the palace, Ying Zheng took Li Jiyang's hand and said seriously: "Sooner or later, I will use ten coffins for my father!"

"I believe in you!" Li Jiyang patted him on the shoulder: "Don't talk about ten layers of coffins, let's use twelve layers for patriotism!" "Twelve layers?" Ying Zheng was shocked by Li Jiyang's words arrive!

"Well, the twelfth floor!" Li Jiyang grinned.

"Okay, listen to Xiaoyang, the twelfth floor!" Ying Zheng nodded seriously.

With the coffin settled, it's time to prepare for the funerary objects.

And the burials in this era are very different.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, following the legacy of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, thick burials were popular. Because people at that time believed that after death, people continued to live in another world, so the style of burial was particularly prevalent.

Funeral objects are divided into two types: human martyrdom and object martyrdom.

Like Li Jiyang's aunt, when she died, everything was buried with her, and her servants made trouble, and Li Jiyang wanted them to be buried with her!

Only then was it frightened, and later it was simply sold. People with bad intentions were worried about keeping him.

There are thousands of days to be thieves, but there are no thousand days to guard against thieves!

King Zhuang Xiang's burial objects include both people and objects.

People are those women; objects are the things he was used to during his lifetime.

Li Jiyang also gave some, all of which are relatively good silk fabrics with good patterns. He said with a crying voice: "This was originally prepared for the foster father to make summer clothes, so take them all!"

Those cloths are exquisite and rare at first sight. Qin Anjun's burial of the king is as rich as the eldest son's half!

All kinds of pearls filled the gaps in the coffin, and Li Jiyang directly laid the gold bricks on the bottom of the coffin. Even Lu Buwei couldn't do it with such arrogance. Lu Buwei originally wanted to support the eldest son with money to show how much he valued him.

But Yingzheng has never been short of money. Li Jiyang's gold is like no money. He scattered it casually. The courtiers were all worried about the affairs of the king. Yingzheng didn't say anything. Li Jiyang asked Steward Li Fu to pull it in a carriage With a carload of ginseng, send it door to door!

Let's just say that the eldest son gave it to everyone, to nourish the body!

"I gave it?" Ying Zheng pointed at himself funny.

"Yeah, not in your name, but mine?" Li Jiyang also imitated him, pointing to himself.

There is no burial for the time being, only a "funeral", and just after the "funeral", there is an emergency military situation.

Mr. Zixi, you have rebelled in Jinyang!

The image of "Xi" in oracle bone inscriptions is that the left is the hand and the right is the person bound by the rope.

In that era, the bound people were of course slaves, and "Xi" specifically refers to female slaves.

There is also a record in "Qiu Baoshi" in "Qiu Guan" in "Zhou Li": "Where Xi Li gathers and comes in and out, he will be the chief minister."

Lei Xi is the sixth son of Lei Zhu. His mother was originally a slave girl. She was favored by Ying Zhu only because of her beauty. Zhu was together every day, but he couldn't conceive a son and a half daughter, and a slave girl would have an heir.

Moreover, the female slave has no knowledge, and if she is favored, she will go to heaven. That's why Mrs. Huayang couldn't stand it later, and adopted a stranger as her son, and Lu Buwei changed the name of King Zhuang Xiang to Ying Zichu.

He Zixi's name sounds like a real brother.

In fact, if it was a noble daughter from another country, she would rather let her son recognize Mrs. Huayang as her mother, and she would follow Mrs. Huayang's lead. With Zixi's glory in the past, it may be who is the leader of the country!

This young master Xi is Yingzheng's uncle. He was ready to move when King Zhuang Xiang was not in good health. Fortunately, at that time, there were various medicinal materials given by Li Jiyang to nourish his body. King Zhuang Xiang seemed to be able to follow suit. He looked like he had a cold or something, so he didn't dare to really start a rebellion. Now that King Zhuang Xiang was dead, he started a rebellion in Jinyang when he received the news.

If anyone wants to kill Mr. Xi, Mrs. Huayang ranks first!

"Back then, I thought that their mother and son were not good people. The poor son of the lord of the palace just passed away, and he dared to rebel. What a bastard!" Mrs. Huayang was very angry when she heard the news.

"What should I do?" The Empress Dowager Xia was an uninitiated person, she couldn't hold up the situation even after becoming an Empress Dowager, she still followed the Empress Dowager Huayang, being an echo.

It is not a day or two since she has such a temper. Seeing that the stranger has become her own son, the Empress Dowager Huayang also took good care of her. Later, the two of them died of their husbands at the same time, and they were named queen mother together.

Originally, Madam Huayang wanted to go to the palace to relax. Seeing that Xia Ji could not stand up even after she became the empress dowager, she simply took her with her, lest she would not be able to speak and do things, and would cause trouble to Zichu.

The two of them are the biggest in the palace, and Xia Ji listens to her. It feels so good to be in charge by herself, and she doesn't have to meet anyone. It's someone else who meets her. Although she is a half-way mother and son, what should be given, what should be filial , Zichu doesn't skimp at all, and even gives them a share of good things.

The son is dead and the grandson is still there, but now the grandson has not ascended the throne and become the lord of the country, someone rebelled over there!

Young Master Zixi's mother bullied Xia Ji a lot back then, Xia Ji was subconsciously afraid!

"Xuan Mengao sees you!" Ying Zheng made a prompt decision.

Meng Ao will arrive soon.

Ying Zheng directly appointed Meng Ao as the general to quell the chaos: "We must quell the chaos, Yingshi Zixi...it doesn't matter whether he lives or dies!"

"promise!"

Meng Ao is also angry!

They have been guarding against other countries taking the opportunity to send troops, but they didn't expect that their own family rebelled before other people did it!

Ying's son Xi, even if the eldest son doesn't say anything, they won't let him go!

When he failed in the battle for the throne, the king was kind and did not do anything to him. After all, he was the son that the previous king liked, and he was not allowed to go out as a hostage. He was just living in Jinyang, and he didn't know how to be grateful!

Everyone hated this kind of rebellion by their own people.

No one knows what kind of life Zixi has lived in the past three years.

It can also be said that King Zhuang Xiang did so well that everyone thought he was a good man.

General Meng Ao sent troops because the treasury could not be moved, and now there is no king after all, so Li Jiyang simply asked them to go to Lijiazhuang to collect supplies.

"You all come out?" General Meng Ao was stunned: "That's an army of one hundred thousand!"

"There is nothing else in Lijiazhuang, but there are quite a lot of things." Li Jiyang said: "I'll go back first, and you will send people later!"

"Xiaoyang, can you...?" Ying Zheng was also not sure how much the Li family village had, but he only knew that Li Jiyang was rich.

His master and brothers all gave a lot of money, although there were things, but compared with the 20 army, it was too little!

"Ah Zheng, don't worry, Zixi won't cause any trouble." If this person in history hadn't rebelled, he probably wouldn't even have a chance to be named.

He had no choice but to let Li Jiyang go. As soon as Li Jiyang left the palace, he went straight to Lijiazhuang and didn't go home at all.

This time he went in a carriage, which was faster than an ox cart, and arrived in a day.

After arriving, I found my own large warehouse and moved a lot of things out of the space, especially beef and mutton, beef jerky and cured whole sheep, as well as dried vegetables.

Fortunately, at this time, both wild vegetables and vegetables are about to be ready, and it is also possible to buy some green vegetables locally.

Li Jiyang also prepared a lot of gold!

When he was ready, Gan Luo came to see him.

"Since I came back to Lijiazhuang and defended day and night, someone came to the door on the third day!" Although Gan Luo is still young, he is already very mature and can be treated like an adult.

"Someone came on the third day?" Li Jiyang did some calculations, and it happened to be the time when he fooled Lu Buwei. According to the itinerary, Lu Buwei sent someone to Lijiazhuang when he returned.

"At first they wanted to touch the door, but later they wanted to attack and smash the door. The uncles and uncles in the village were commanded by their grandfathers to guard against them. There were also people patrolling the back mountain and the east and west mountains. It is said that they wanted to climb the mountain. He came up, but fell down by himself!"

Speaking of this, Gan Luo couldn't help but smile happily: "The terrain of Lijiazhuang is very good. The grandfathers said that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack. They fell to death when they climbed the mountain, and they couldn't get in if they took the road."

If he encounters this kind of terrain, he will be suffocated to death!

Li Jiyang has surveyed the terrain of his own house long ago, and knows that what the old soldiers said is correct: "Hurry up and ask the old butler to get you some delicious food, oh, the meat tube is enough, and you have to eat some vegetables!"

"Grandpas don't like to eat green vegetables, but my aunts told them to eat some, so they just eat some." Gan Luo and Li Jiyang danced and learned how the old men fought wits with the aunts and did not eat green vegetables.

No one told Li Jiyang these things before. Everyone thought that the young master was a person who did big things, and people might not like to hear about these small things.

Little Ganluo is different, the little guy is smart, and he brought the team back, and brought the young master to stay in Lijiazhuang. Everyone feels sorry for him that he will share his father's worries at a young age.

I am also happy to treat him as the caretaker of my nephews and grandchildren.

"Not bad, not bad, at such an advanced age, eating dry meat is easy to cause constipation." Li Jiyang said casually.

"Senior, how do you know that grandpas are constipated?" Little Gan Luo was startled, he thought he was the only one who knew the secrets of the old men| Xiner!"

He hasn't seen the little guy since he came back!

"It should be, Xin'er is always looking for uncle these days!" Speaking of the child younger than himself, Xiao Ganluo's heart softened.

Nanny Lan was sitting there, weaving something with red silk rope, and Xiao Li Xin was holding a small knife made of wood, waving it vigorously.

"What is this for?" Li Jiyang was taken aback by the baby's appearance, what kind of play is this?
