Emperor Qin

Xianyang is located on the south bank of the Weishui River. There are large fertile plains in the north and south, with thousands of miles of fertile fields. It is summer and the sun is strong. Fortunately, the river wind is cool and not hot.

Yan Jiang followed King Qin's chariot all the way out of Xianyang, and came to a brand new palace. This platform was built near the water, not far from Xianyang, and the terrain was very high. It looked like a hill was mostly flattened. The orchid grass and camphor trees are all new species, and the soil is still not dry. The carved beams and painted buildings are all brand new. At first glance, it is majestic and full of the style of a great country.

"The palace in Xianyang is old, and the widows have long thought of choosing a new residence." Sitting on the same chariot, the King of Qin said with a little complacency, "The foundation of the site selection has already been determined, but I have been busy a few days ago, and I haven't asked about it. I didn't know about it last month. After it was completed, I personally asked about it, and only then did I have this palace.”

Yan Jiang smiled on his face, but secretly complained in his heart, did you start building large-scale construction projects before you unified the six kingdoms, should you be in such a hurry.

Having said that, he still watched the new palace with great interest. He still had a little impression of this place. It was the ruins of the Xianyang Palace thousands of years later. It had been destroyed by Xiang Yu's burning of Xianyang, leaving only some foundations.

Looking at it now, it is really five steps to the first floor, ten steps to one pavilion, the corridors linger, the style of the door mast and the interior is very simple, especially the copper pattern of some main columns, which is very thick and domineering, the most perfect one is the The bronze objects are all as exquisite as the palace lanterns of Siyang Fangzun Changxin.

At the end of the Bronze Age, Qin State had basically tapped the potential of bronze ware to its peak due to the limitation of iron smelting.

Yan Jiang couldn't put it down, and when he was ready to go back, he drew these experiences and kept them for records.

Seeing that he was so fascinated, Qin Wangzheng was also very satisfied, so he proudly said: "Since Yan Qing likes it, this palace will be given to you."

what's the situation?

Yan Jiang felt something was wrong: "Give me the palace?"

"That's right. You like to give lectures, and you have a lot of money. Xianyang is cramped and narrow, so it's hard to use it. Why don't you use it as a basis," King Qin said proudly, "Then Li Chong can give you a 'Duili'. I'm the Lord of the Great Qin. Can't I give you a palace?"

It seems to make sense.

"Give me this place, so where do you live, my lord?" Yan Jiang didn't think he couldn't bear it, but everyone knew that he was courteous for nothing.

"There is another one next to it." King Qin didn't think it was a problem.

Let me go, the number one infrastructure maniac in Chinese history was born right before my eyes?

Yan Jiang was very moved, holding the emperor's claws, and refused excitedly: "Your Majesty, think twice. Although Qin is now peeking at the world from the Guanzhong, the six kingdoms are still alive. We should fight against the survivors of the sixth generation to clean up the four seas. The most precious should be here. Wouldn’t it be beautiful to put the palaces of the six kingdoms in Xianyang after the king sweeps away the world?”

The Six Kingdoms are still there, what are you bothering about?

The slight gleam between King Qin's brows disappeared in an instant. His expression was like, like, after being rejected by a school bully who gave his sister a jewelry and luxury car, he persuaded you to study hard first--not moved, and even a little bit wronged.

Seeing that the King of Qin was speechless for a while, Yan Jiang happily continued to admire the architectural style of the pre-Qin period. He originally wanted to major in fine arts in college, but unfortunately he had strong conflicts with his parents and studied construction engineering. He walked around the world with his camera on his back, and most of his majors were given back to his teachers, but appreciating various historical relics has always been his hobby.

Did the high platform architectural style of the Qin Palace originate from the fact that they came down from the Longxi Plateau, or was it because they were afraid of being flooded because of the flooding of the Wei River?Moreover, the high platform is easy to catch fire, easily struck by lightning and difficult to extinguish the fire. How can they avoid this kind of problem?

In doubt, he casually asked the attendants around him.

"I don't know." King Qin replied in a low voice, his tone was erratic and very perfunctory.

Yan Jiang looked left and right, only to find that the people around him had been dismissed, only King Qin was still beside him with a slightly displeased expression, as if he was waiting for him to admit his mistake.

Seeing him like this, the King of Qin frowned and said, "That's it, it's passed down to Jian Gongzi."

Immediately there were servants in the distance to answer, and soon, more than a dozen short Ge craftsmen came to the king of Qin with panic expressions, knelt down and saluted, trembling and afraid to get up.

Yan Jiang was about to speak, when a young craftsman in his teens suddenly kowtowed: "My lord, this palace is already the fastest. Last month it was cold and the soil was hard to dry. If it is faster, the palace will be overthrown." Danger, it really can't be any faster!"

As if the begging switch was turned on, the miserable meeting started immediately. Several craftsmen exposed the crimes of King Qin, saying that the construction of the Linjiang Palace was too hasty, and the people were recruited for construction, and the people were driven day and night to build it. No matter how tired and tired, there are still soil rammed and buildings collapsed, if it can be repaired in a month, there will definitely be defects, and please let the old and the young in their family...

King Qin's face turned cold when he heard this, and finally frowned and said, "Shut up."

Yan Jiangxin said that he really had the appearance of a tyrant, so he smiled and tugged on King Qin's sleeve: "Why should the king be angry, Zi people are ignorant, disturbing you and me, so let them retreat."

Qin Wangzheng took a serious look at Yan Qing, as if to make sure that the other party would want to stab him in the back. After a few breaths, he waved his hand to let Ziren back down, and said slowly: "My Great Qin has strict laws, if you shake him If you are injured, you can reduce the oral tax."

Yan Jiang smiled and said, "Is Your Majesty so fond of civil engineering?"

Yes, in the future there will be the Great Wall running straight to Afang Palace and Lishan Mausoleum, and the Southern and Northern Wars will be fought in the north and south. This world will let you pretend.

Qin Wangzheng thought for a moment, and then said cautiously: "The widow is not for pleasure, and only when needed."

Yan Jiang smiled slightly: "Good advice, Your Majesty."

So the atmosphere became cold again.

Yan Jiang and Qin Wang met each other's eyes, one was as gentle as water and the other was condensed as ice. Their eyes were clear and clear, as if they could peep into each other's deepest thoughts through the deep pupils.

The palace guards in the distance made themselves as stiff as a stone, and of course they admired Yan Shangqing's ability to move forward and retreat freely under the aura of the king.

For a long time, Yan Jiang and King Qin lowered their heads at the same time, then raised their eyes the next time to calm down, and continued to swim with their arms as if nothing had happened.

Finally, after visiting the entire palace, Yan Jiang stood on the high platform with him, leaning on the railing to watch the surging Wei River.

The warm wind was blowing, and Yan Jiang suddenly turned to look at him: "Your Majesty."

"What's the matter?" King Qin answered him in a low voice.

"If you don't build a palace before the age of 30, I will personally build you a palace unparalleled in the world," Yan Jiang's gentle voice came with the wind, "How about it?"

King Qin narrowed his eyes slightly, and said decisively: "Good!"

……

After returning to the palace, the King of Qin happily told his left and right: "Those Zi people have made meritorious deeds, and they will all be rewarded!"

Yan Jiang complained to his own bird, saying that he still felt something was wrong, and then complained that he didn't remember the cement ratio for a long time, only knew the raw materials, and he would be busy in the future.

Then he said that the king of Qin is still very easy to talk, but he is a little impatient, but he can bear his temper and can listen and communicate, so it's okay.

The bird happily swallowed the meat, spread its wings, and almost wanted to fly.

After a few days of peace, the King of Qin met with Crown Prince Dan of the Yan Kingdom, and said that he was already considering sending troops for Yan, but it took time for the conscription, and you Yan Kingdom should resist first. We will discuss the regulations in a few days. Reply again.

Zhao Guodu has already hit Dukang, and there is only one river away from the country!

The prince begged bitterly, hoping that King Qin would send troops earlier.

Prince Dan of Yan had no choice but to return to the country, and before leaving, he came to visit Yan Jiang again, wondering if there was a way to solve the problem, and he kowtowed as a prince as soon as he came, hoping that he could help the country of Yan to tide over the difficulties.

Yan Jiang looked at his haggard face, and thought about his future deeds, thinking that the six kingdoms were destroyed by heaven, and he had also been a hostage for ten years. How could Qin be so successful? This guy's mind is just muddled?

Yu he sighed and said: "Pang Nuan is old and will definitely withdraw his troops within half a year. After a while, the Yan Kingdom will be fine."

Prince Dan was overjoyed, left a heavy gift, and thanked him in every possible way, and then returned home from Weidi Jingqi like flying like a light car.

Yan Jiang looked at the jewels and jade artifacts left behind, and was a little curious. In the future, could he see the king of Qin circle the pillar and the king bear the sword with his own eyes?

The matter of Prince Dan didn't have much impact, Yan Jiang was soon occupied by another matter.

The winter wheat he planted in Longxi earlier has been harvested.

Although some crops failed due to improper fertilizer and water, most of them ushered in a bumper harvest.
