Emperor Qin

The state of Qin is a country with a very sound household registration system. When you go out, you must bring a certificate and biography. The certificate is used to prove your household registration place, marking the person's appearance characteristics and date of birth. Shu, the people of the state of Qin, if they have nothing to do, they can't go around to play. If they wander around indiscriminately, they will be arrested and detained by a kind of security police called you. If they are not good, they will be assigned to repair the city wall.

This matter can't trouble Yan Jiang, since he left Daxia from Dio, he has already started to delve into the counterfeiting profession - he can't poison a king every time for a warrant, right?

Moreover, in this era without photographic technology, it is very easy to forge a wooden copy. Yan Jiang spent about 10 minutes in His Majesty's silent and deep eyes, and had already written a new copy, and made it for himself. A little bit of camouflage.

He darkened the essence of make-up and did not make any major changes to his face. Instead, he used ink to dot a black birthmark on the forehead, then applied a little bit of finely ground rice powder to look natural, and then darkened the eyeliner. This is just a small change. But it can divert people's attention, and it is not easy to remember his original appearance.

In addition, although going down the Weishui River is the Hangu Pass, but it is very difficult to enter and exit there. It can almost be said that you can enter but not exit, so you cannot go there.

Yan Jiang had planned a long time ago. He left Xianyang and headed north directly along the tributary of the Weishui River. According to the biography, he was a river official who went to serve the Zhengguo Canal.

In recent years, the State of Qin has used all the power of the whole country to build the Zhengguo Canal. It wants to connect the two tributaries of the Weishui River and the Luohe River. Millions of people have been conscripted for the [-]-mile canal. At the last juncture, but because Zheng Guo Tired Qin's plan has failed, and the canal is currently under construction. Going there can not only hide people's eyes and ears, but also go down the canal, avoiding the guards along the way, so as not to be taken back.

It is dangerous to travel in the dark, but Yan Jiang can almost be said to be unimpeded with the tiger.

His Majesty is not lazy this time, he flies up to the sky to check the surroundings when he has nothing to do, rests on his shoulders for a while when he is tired, and then flies up hard, which makes Yan Jiang feel very distressed, saying that the state of Qin is in good order, and King Qin is still I didn't find him leaving, and there are Huahua who don't need to be vigilant at present.

His Majesty looked at him indifferently, turned a deaf ear, and continued to fly.

Xianyang is not far from the Zuo'e Mountain where the dragon head of Zhengguo Canal is located. Qin Shi opened the road and it was only a few tens of miles. That's why he brought Ah Huang out—with Ah Huang around, he really wasn't afraid of others catching up with him.

I rewarded my beloved horse with a piece of brown sugar, and let it find grass to eat by itself. Yan Jiang strolled along the embankment, under the bright moon, staring at the mouth of the canal that has not been filled with water in the distance. There is a dark hole with a diameter of three meters as the water intake, and a branch canal connecting the main canal is built in the distance for water diversion in the farmland, and there are stretches of thatched sheds next to it. Many peasants who came from afar were recruited to do these Those who are forced to work are called pawns, and they have no labor security. Everyone has to work for three months before they can leave.

"It's really the first time anyone on the riverside sees the moon, and when the river moon shines on people at the beginning of the year." Yan Jiang exclaimed.

He has been here—the Zhengguo Canal site after 2000 has been successfully applied for world heritage and has become a tourist attraction in Shaanxi. Due to sedimentation, the original canal mouth has long been abandoned. Zheng Guoqu only lasted for a hundred years before it was abandoned due to sand.

"This is, do you want to build a dam?" Yan Jiang looked at the wooden frames and stones that had been prepared on both sides of the bank, and frowned, "Impossible, we can't build a dam here to stop the water."

Yan Jiang walked to the river, squatted down, and the owl flew up on his shoulders and landed beside him. He watched in confusion as he picked up a handful of Jingshui, first smelled it, then licked it, and sprinkled it again. Lose.

"There is too much cement and sand in the Jinghe River. When the dam is built here, it will accumulate sediment and it will be washed away in a few years." Yan Jiang stood up and said regretfully, "This is not Dujiangyan, so I can't copy it here. Isn't Zheng Guo do you know?"

Hearing the words, the owl suddenly turned its head away and proudly looked at the bright moon in the sky.

Yan Jiang became more and more curious, so he asked Huahua to retreat to look for food, and he took the owl to the tent by the river beach. Judging by the gorgeousness, it should be the residence of Chief Engineer Zheng Guo.

It was late at night, but the tent was still lighted.

Several soldiers guarded outside the tent. When they saw Yan Jiang coming, they shouted who was coming.

Yan Jiang took out his biography and said that it was the envoy of the king of Qin. The river workers of Qin State came to ask about the progress of Zheng Guo. After the soldiers checked the biography, they let him in.

An old man in his fifties was looking carefully at a hydrographic map under an oil lamp. When he saw someone coming in, he just stood up and saluted. His face was wrinkled and haggard. Dust and greasy, as if picked from the mound.

Yan Jiang smiled and explained his identity. It was the King of Qin who came to question the slow progress of the project.

"As I said before, it is difficult to dam the Jing River, and the downstream rivers can be blocked into the canal. Qingyu, Xiyu and other rivers have already entered the canal, but if the Jing River is blocked, it will consume manpower and cause accidents..." Zheng Guo looked tired , as if it has been difficult to sleep for a long time, "This is not a plan to exhaust Qin, but to benefit Qin. Why doesn't the king believe it? If you say that you don't build the Jinghe dam, you will be tired of Qin, and you will be a spy, and you will definitely take my life... I What can I do?"

It turned out to be the reason... Yan Jiang even felt it was funny, and whispered to His Majesty in a foreign language that the King of Qin is really an iron man, and he wants to drive ducks to the shelves!

His Majesty exuded a cold air and did not respond.

"To benefit Qin is to tire Qin. Zheng Hegong knew about it when he entered Qin." Yan Jiang smiled slightly, "But blocking the Jing River is not bad. , the most beneficial to the land. It’s just a useless canal between Shichuan and Luohe, which is the way to exhaust the Qin Dynasty, right?”

Well, although it will be washed away, there is no problem in a few years. Let’s talk about the future. The silt and fertile land can also improve the salinity of the land here, and it is not a loss.

The problem is that the flow of Jingshui is not enough to irrigate the [-]-pitched ground, and it can only irrigate half of it-this is what the tour guide who took him to visit said at the time, so the relics of later generations he visited, the original Zhengguo Canal is half of the original Zhengguo Canal, from Shichuan to Luo A section of the water has been abandoned. I heard from the tour guide that someone once proposed to draw water from the Yellow River for irrigation. Unfortunately, after the Yellow River was cut off several times, the Yellow River Management Committee of later generations angrily set the water intake for each province.

Zheng Guo's expression changed slightly: "Where did you start talking about this? There is absolutely no such thing."

"You and I know it well, but since it has been cultivated, I don't intend to trouble you," Yan Jiang said with a smile, "I came here to ask about the current situation in Korea."

Wherever he goes, he must first inquire about the situation, and it is absolutely impossible for him to slam into it like flies. It is a pity that Qin Wang, that cheapskate, always refuses to show him the news of the Six Kingdoms, saying that it is a secret, and he cannot watch it unless he enters the court. Ruo Yanqing If he is willing to be an official, he can watch Love of the Six Kingdoms at will...Of course he won't jump into this kind of pitfall, so he can only stop by and ask Koreans to inquire about it.

"The old man has been away from the country for nearly ten years, how do you know his current situation?" Zheng Guo said angrily, "Are you suspecting that the old man is still in collusion with South Korea?"

Yan Jiang shook his head lightly: "I'm just asking about the recent situation when South Korea sent you to Qin Dynasty. If you want to know what King Han was thinking at that time, don't worry."

Anyway, it seems that nothing major happened in South Korea in the past ten years.

Then Zheng Guo's expression softened a little, he sighed the impermanence of life, and mentioned his entry into Qin Dynasty.

Yan Jiang listened attentively while feeding the meat to His Majesty.

South Korea is a poor little place, where is the pity? When the three aristocrats carve up the land when the Jin Kingdom was divided up, the king of Han at that time chose a piece of land in the west including Shangdang County. He originally thought that he could destroy the next The state of Zheng in the south expands its territory, and then bullies the state of Qin in the west to expand its territory. After eating these two sides, the state of Wei in the east can also be easily attacked.

Who knew that the plan could not keep up with the changes. After Zheng Guo was destroyed, South Korea was not happy for a few days, Wei State began to reform and strengthen the country, holding South Korea down and rubbing it; Almost half of South Korea's land; and then the rise of Zhao Guo was another mess, and when King Han figured it out, he had to reform, it was too late!

In the next hundred years, South Korea became the site of the Fourth World War. Because Shangdang County was an important exit from Qin Guodong, South Korea had to give way again and again, providing food and grass for the Qin army when passing by, sending the uncle away, and waiting until the six countries joined forces. When attacking Qin, the country had to be given up for the armies of other countries to squeeze. It was almost a leak from all sides, and no one dared to offend.

But even so, Qin was still not satisfied. 30 years ago, Bai Qi attacked South Korea. The Korean corpses were scattered all over the country, and the people scattered in exile. 5 people became an inconspicuous achievement in Bai Qi's military achievements, but South Korea had to cede Shangdang The county was given to Qin.Shangdang is the gateway to the Taihang Mountains thousands of miles away. If this place is lost, South Korea will have no natural dangers to defend. In desperation, the King of Han played a trick to divert the water to the east and asked the Shangdang prefect to give the land to Zhao Guo-no way, although Zhao Guo It's not a good thing either, but it's just a gift of land to Zhao Guo, and I'm afraid it's not life if it's given to the other one.

Who knew that this incident directly triggered the Great War between Qin and Zhao Changping. At that time, the other five countries thought that the two powerful countries were not good things, and it would be better to pinch and lose both. Who knew that Qin would win a big victory, and South Korea was worried about Qin's revenge. The princess married a different man from the King of Qin, and she fully supported Chengqiao, the son of Princess Han. However, the bet failed. Only a hundred miles away.

In desperation, Prime Minister Zhang Ping suggested that Zheng Guo, who was proficient in water conservancy at that time, should come to build the canal for a little temporary peace.

There is nothing wrong with this plan. Qin has not caused too much trouble for South Korea these years. As for South Korea, it is still ruled by nobles. I heard that the son of Prime Minister Zhang Ping has praised his son Zhang Liang a lot these years, saying that he will continue to be in power. preferred.

There is also Teng, the prefect of Nanyang County in South Korea.

South Korea is mostly governed by nobles, and ordinary people need to rely on their backers to get to the top. For example, he was sent here to do this because he offended a clan back then, but he did not hold back at all when it came to building canals. Too old to look like.

Now there are only Xinzheng and Nanyang left in South Korea. The area is not comparable to that of a county in the state of Qin.

Yan Jiang shed tears of sympathy for South Korea when he heard it. It was simply that the lucky value fell out of the alphabet. He comforted him a few words from time to time, and inquired about some aristocratic relations, and then resigned.

"This South Korea is really not very good." Yan Jiang said to His Majesty, "Let's go and see Zhang Liang and Han Fei."

Hearing this, His Majesty's expression became darker, and he didn't give the servant any extra reaction.

Yan Jiang touched it, whistled to call Hua Hua and Ah Huang, and continued on the road.

The sky was about to brighten, and in Linjiang Palace, King Qin slowly opened his eyes.

The waiter held a basin of water beside him, and dared not let out the atmosphere.

The King of Qin leaned on the couch, supported his chest with his hands, and thought carefully.

It's still autumn now, and it's the time of autumn harvest. The army should not be taken lightly. When they captured Shangdang, the Han soldiers did not retreat, and there were strong soldiers and crossbows. The capital Xinzheng had a high wall and enough food. It will take at least half a year. Such a long time is enough for Yan Jiang to play back and forth in Han Zhaowei.

After pondering for a while, the King of Qin said calmly: "It is said that Yang Duanhe, Chen Bing Xingyang, ordered the King of Han to hand over——Han Fei and Zhang Ping's family serve Qin."

Whoever you want to see, you have to go back to the widow to see.

The author has something to say: 13 years... Qin attacked Han, Han Fei made Qin, and he died——"The Chronicle of Qin Shihuang"

The king is so domineering when he wants someone, but he just throws it away if he doesn't like it.
