Dian Rui, this is an ancient official position, since the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, this official has been set up, specializing in the collection of jade Rui jade, distinguishing its famous objects, and its use, setting up its clothing.

In short, as long as it is related to the imperial court and jade, it is in charge of Dian Rui.

In recent years, with the road of Khotan Kunlun jade to the Central Plains completely opened, the jade was continuously sent through the silk sugar road, and Dian Rui's responsibilities were greatly increased.

At the beginning of November of the 37th year of Qin Shi Huang, Dian Rui received a special mission to identify a lost and recovered jade.

The crystal clear jade is turned over and over in Dian Rui's hands, and his concentration is no less than that of later generations of antique experts. After comparing the color, size, shape, pattern, lettering, and even the marks left by the craftsman during the production of this piece of jade with the records in the drawing book, Dian Rui came to an astonishing conclusion:

"Your Majesty, this jade is exactly the piece of jade that was thrown into the river in June of the thirty-second year, when the royal driver paraded through Huaibei, fished for the tripod in Pengcheng, and sacrificed to the god of water, everything is exactly the same!"

Qin Shi Huang's face was solemn, and he asked Dian Rui to step back and summoned the messenger who sent the jade back.

"Tell the story again!"

The envoy trembled, and could only prostrate himself to His Majesty and talk about his bizarre experience......

"A month ago, the minister was ordered by His Majesty to go to Dongjun with Yu Shi Chi and told the Dongjun guard, since everyone around Yunxing in Dongjun did not confess who carved the words of rebellion, and there was a suspicion of accomplices, so he was executed regardless of men, women, old and children, within a radius of ten miles, three lilu, and more than 1,000 people! Now thousands of people have been killed, and the ministers have returned to Xianyang to restore their lives......"

It was a big event that happened last month, and after the meteor shower, the East County reported that a meteorite had fallen on them.

It's nothing if the meteorite lands, the important thing is that the meteorite is engraved with "The First Emperor died and the earth was divided"!

This matter has spread among the people, and the people of the six nationalities in the Kanto region have secretly said that this is a prophecy from heaven, representing the will of God, indicating that Qin Shi Huang will die, Great Qin will be divided into seven, and the six kingdoms will be restored.

When Qin Shi Huang learned the news, he was very shocked, but he did not believe that this was a foresign from heaven, and felt that it was man-made and cursed.

"There are always Diao people who want the Son of Heaven to die!"

The people who wanted him to die, there were people very early.

At the earliest, he was a noble son of Handan, born after the Battle of Changping, the grandson of the Qin State, but he was hostage in Handan, and he grew up in resentment and rejection, which created his later character.

After that, it was the younger brother An Jun Chengji's maternal family and the disciple of Chang Yu, and his generation coveted the throne.

Even his own mother, Empress Dowager Zhao, did not forgive Qin Shi Huang for killing his two half-brothers until she died, her hands were tightly dragging him, her nails digging into her flesh, and she scolded viciously: "You!" ”

Qin Shi Huang only looked at her silently and didn't say anything, he understood, curse, this is the weak verbal and powerless resistance of the weak, let her go!

Laughing and scolding by others, but the unification of Qin Wangzheng's cause will never be delayed at all!

The kings and scholars of the Six Kingdoms were always looking forward to the violent death of Qin Shi Huang to relieve the pressure of the Qin army's eastward advance, and even sent Jing Ke to assassinate him with a sword, but they still couldn't stop the tide of unification of the world.

The three armies cheered, the head of the Qianqian bowed down, and even the gods on the mountain shouted long live in the mountain!

Qin Shi Huang was immersed in the dream of immortality in this way, and it was only recently that he realized that everyone was looking forward to his death!

courtiers, generals, officials, chiefs, and even their own sons......

The fierce man shouted like a high departer, "Time will be lost, and you will die together!" ”

Smarter people, then waiting for the day when the sun sets, "the moon will rise, the sun will not be", recently Xianyang Po someone is secretly singing this ballad, who is the moon they are looking forward to, Qin Shi Huang will not know?

The curse of one man is not terrible, but what about the curse of millions? No matter how hard a person's life is, how can he withstand the mouth of the whole world?

He immediately sent Yushi to the place where the meteorite landed and checked the person who carved the inscription from house to house, but found nothing. Enraged, Qin Shi Huang then ordered: Kill all the families near this meteorite, and immediately destroy the engraved meteorite!

People died, and the stones were burned, but the shadow in Qin Shi Huang's heart did not go away, and he always felt restless.

Sure enough, it was only in February, and the envoy who came back from Dongjun encountered another strange thing!

The messenger said: "The minister passed through Huayin Pingshu Road from Kanto at night, and it was in the fog, and in the fog, suddenly someone stood in the middle of the road with this jade bi, stopped me and said, 'For my legacy, I will leave the pond king. ”

The so-called Jun of Zhuchi is next to the Afang Palace in Weinan, the local god in the Xuanchi, and his status is similar to that of the Dragon King of Jinghe in later generations......

Qin Shi Huang sent someone to send the jade brought back by the envoy to the imperial palace for inspection, and the result of the inspection was that this was indeed the jade that Qin Shi Huang personally invested in Surabaya in the 32nd year.

That time, Qin Shi Huang fished for nothing, and the bamboo basket was empty, which was quite regrettable, and the gods did not give him any reply

But now, how could the jade used to sacrifice the water god five years ago be sent back by an unknown person in a confused way?

Was the god's reply too late, or was there something else?

The messenger continued: "The man still said, and he said......"

"What else?" Qin Shi Huang asked.

The messenger fell to the ground and said in a small voice: "The man also said, 'This year the ancestral dragon is dead'!" ”

……

"Zulong died this year?"

As the messenger uttered these words, the whole palace fell silent.

Zulong, what do the key words of this sentence mean? Several erudite courtiers who were listening didn't dare to speak, but everyone knew that this was probably the First Emperor of Qin!

The Qin Dynasty did not respect the dragon, nor did it stipulate that the dragon was the exclusive property of the imperial emperor.

But with the early period of reunification, after the movement of sacrificing the five emperors and creating auspiciousness. Qin Shi Huang took the black dragon as the rui of the great Qin water, so the world gradually took the dragon that could be used by princes and princes as a symbol of the Qin Dynasty.

The most typical is that a certain general of the Southern Expedition is trying his best to lead the image of the Qin Dynasty to the dragon, and has made a dragon totem in Lingnan, adding messy settings to it, what sheep's beard, what sound like a frog croaking, wanting to make the Yue people become "the descendants of the dragon".

In recent years, in the Kanto region, due to the ban on speech control, people were not allowed to say the word "Qin Shi Huang" casually, so scholars often used "Zulong" as the name of the first emperor.

The terrible silence lasted for a long time, and the messenger had no choice but to finish the matter: "The minister was puzzled, and asked why, but the man had been hidden in the fog, leaving only the gift of the bi, and the minister saw that this jade looked like a royal thing, so he did not stop and came to report it." ”

After a long silence, Qin Shi Huang finally spoke.

"Even if that person is really a mountain ghost, he can't know anything about a year old."

"Just like the summer worm can't speak ice, little mountain god, what kind of thing is he, and he dares to predict my life and death? Destroy the jade bib, dare to leak this matter, clan! ”

……

Qin Shi Huang's anger was frustrated in his heart.

If it is said that meteors can still be forcibly understood as auspicious, for example, when Qin Wengong was accompanied by the rooster crow, there were meteors falling from the sky, which were collected as Qin's national treasures and set up Chen Bao Temple.

However, the inscription on the meteorite "The First Emperor died and the earth was divided", and today's prophecy is all a symbol of disaster, and after these things spread, I am afraid that it will cause turmoil.

The emperor's prestige is there, and since Qin Shi Huang does not like these "prophecies", there are people in the government and the opposition who will deny them.

For example, he openly defined the word "ancestral dragon": "The ancestral dragon is the first of people." "Deny, this is the emperor's pronoun.

After several purges, the few remaining doctors were busy offering to Qin Shi Huang

Xianzhen poems believe that making musicians sing the strings can dispel the "mountain ghosts" with bad intentions.

Qin Shi Huang was superstitious, and everyone used superstitious methods to break superstition.

The sorcerer, who was good at divination, calculated that Qin Shi Huang should leave Xianyang and go on a tour to avoid the curse, and at the same time make another great migration......

Therefore, Qin Shi Huang decided to move 30,000 households from Guandong to Hexi, and at the same time moved 8,000 sinners to Lingnan, where they were married to the single soldiers who stayed behind.

As for the cruising direction? The three physiognomy masters who were the best at looking at qi in Xianyang City had a controversy, respectively believing that the Son of Heaven Qi was in the northeast, southeast, and due south, and they all believed that Qin Shi Huang needed to go over and use the emperor's power to suppress it.

"Then southeast."

Qin Shi Huang thought about it, the northeast and the south have been there, but the southeast Huiji has not yet traveled, but he can go to worship the traces of Yu.

The ministers retreated, and Qin Shi Huang fell into deep thought.

In fact, everyone doesn't know that Qin Shi Huang himself, although he forbids others to talk about death, and even taboos him has never made a prince, but he doesn't value death as much as he did a few years ago.

"The sun rises and sets, and the cycle repeats, but has anyone ever thought that the sun that rises tomorrow will still be the one from yesterday?"

After figuring this out, death is not terrible, at least not as terrible as it used to be.

The terrible thing is to die too early, and the terrible thing is to die and divide the land!

This is something that Qin Shi Huang could never accept!

Qin Shi Huang's body, he knows, years of government work has accumulated and it is difficult to return, and recently, vomiting blood has become more and more serious, and whether he can survive this age is really a question.

Therefore, those dangerous statements must be controlled, and slanderous prophecies will be cut off from the source!

Come to think of it, what was the beginning of it all?

"The stars fall in the heart of the Yingchao, and Shen Bi returns to the ancestral dragon to die......"

It's a glowing star!

It is necessary to find out who the incarnation of the Luminous Star, which represents disasters, wars, and even brings the misfortune of land division to the Qin Dynasty!

It was not until mid-November, just as preparations were being made for a new parade, that a fugitive who had been wanted for several years voluntarily surrendered to the guard.

"This person said, he knows who the Glowing Star is, and he has been waiting for several years to dedicate the Heavenly Intent to His Majesty!"

Who is he?

Qin Shi Huang frowned when he saw the name of the fugitive.

"Magician...... Lu Ao? ”

……

In the thirty-second year, Qin Shi Huang toured the east, and before he was assassinated, Lu Ao left Xingjia with An Qisheng under the pretext of looking for a book similar to "Hetu" for the emperor.

Later, the scammer of the warlock was exposed, and even related to the assassination and the rebellion of Zhutian, Qin Shi Huang was angry, and more than 100 people were trapped, and the Xianyang warlock disappeared.

Lu Ao was also arrested by the government, but this person's whereabouts are mysterious, it is said that he once appeared in Yandi, and fled to Donghu, why did he suddenly run to Hangu Pass and be arrested?

Although the other warlock no longer trusted, after thinking about it again, Qin Shi Huang asked Lu Ao to be secretly escorted to Xianyang, and he was sent to the palace with a flail to meet him in person.

"The guilty minister greets Your Majesty."

I haven't seen him for a few years, Lu Ao's appearance has changed greatly, he is no longer the appearance of a fairy wind bone, but he is thin and withered, full of white hair, as if he is dozens of years old.

Qin Shi Huang just asked him coldly: "You say, do you know who the Glowing Star is?" ”

"The minister knows."

Lu Ao bowed again: "The minister was deceived by Han Zhong, slandered by Xu Fu, but the minister had no rebellious heart, in order to wash away the grievances, he went overseas for His Majesty, looked for the fairy island, and followed the guidance of the gods, and traveled far away to Hu Tian, at the end of the North Sea, on the blue ice and snow, I saw the black ants under the guidance of the ghosts and gods, automatically gathered, and formed the word ......"

It's a word again, it's a prophecy, Qin Shi Huang's face was not stunned, and he was about to flick his sleeves and let people take this man down, but Lu Ao grabbed the ground with his head and said loudly: "Your Majesty, this book of heaven prophecy is related to the survival of Great Qin!" ”

Qin Shi Huang stopped and looked back: "What does the so-called Book of Heaven say?" ”

Lu Ao raised his head, his forehead was already bleeding, he looked at Qin Shi Huang, and said word by word:

"The Dead Qin, Hei Ye!"
