It was close to noon on 13 May.

Several fast horses came from the northwest, and immediately rode a few soldiers wearing leather armor and carrying a bear's waist, holding a black flag and holding a token, roaring all the way into Xianyang City.

Soon news came out of the palace that the emperor urgently summoned the main officials of the three provinces and six ministries to the Zichen Palace to discuss state affairs.

The Marquis of Qinghe is the Zuozhong Marquis of the Ministry of Industry, a member of the Sanpin, although he does not go to the office on weekdays or goes to the court, but all the important state emperors have never forgotten him, so Chen Xu is naturally among the summons.

At this time, Chen Xu was lying on the couch in the Qinghe Hou Mansion and sleeping peacefully, pillowing the soft thighs of the water he was reading, and a few little maids were fanning and chasing mosquitoes next to him, and his life was simply unorthodox.

After getting up in a daze and listening to the edict of the palace people, although Chen Xu was depressed, he could only quickly wash and change clothes and go to the palace to discuss matters.

If the guess is correct, it should be Li Xin and Jiang Hu and other soldiers and teachers who returned to the dynasty to receive the reward.

By the time he arrived at the Zichen Palace, all the officials of the three provinces and six departments had arrived, and they were all sitting upright, and the emperor was sitting on the couch where he usually worked, as if he was waiting for Chen Xu.

Therefore, Chen Xu walked into the Zichen Hall after the palace people reported, and the room was full of brocade robes, purple and cyan ribbons hanging from his waist, and the officials who upheld the state politics of Great Qin all looked at him together.

Uh~, Chen Xu immediately stood with a frown, and arched his hand to Qin Shi Huang, who was sitting in the center: "Your Majesty forgive your sins, the ministers will sleep for a while, it's too late!" ”

"Aiqing, don't be polite, please take a seat!" Qin Shi Huang didn't care at all, smiled and waved his hand, and after Chen Xu bowed his hands to a group of bigwigs, he walked to an empty chair in front of Li Si on his left hand and sat down.

After Chen Xu sat down, Qin Shi Huang picked up a book on the desk and said: "I just received an urgent report, Li Xin and General Jiang Hu and others have arrived in Liyang, only a hundred miles away from Xianyang, and they will definitely return before sunset. ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will make proper arrangements!" Feng Qujian stood up and gave up his hand.

"In the evening, I will also have a banquet for meritorious soldiers in Ganquan Palace, and Li Xiangtong will pass it on, and the officials above the third grade of the Beijing Division and the marquis of Qinghou are all present."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Li Si also stood up and took the order.

"The Ministry of Rites is too strong, and tomorrow I will lead hundreds of officials and victorious soldiers to worship the Taimiao, and pray to the ancestors for the news of this great victory!"

"Command!" The newly appointed Ministry of Rites ordered Yang Zhu to stand up quickly.

"The military department will quickly prepare the prepared military general examination recital, and after worshipping the Taimiao Temple tomorrow, it will be rewarded for meritorious deeds!"

"Command!" The military department ordered Wei Yu to stand up and give his hand.

"The Ministry of Industry has ordered the Martyrs' Shrine to prepare, and tomorrow at noon, I will lead hundreds of officials and soldiers to the Martyrs' Shrine to burn incense and worship, and then the spirit of the sacrificed soldiers will be enshrined in the mourning hall!"

"Command!" The Ministry of Labor ordered Jae Hong to stand up and receive the order.

"The household department prepares money and food in the barracks to properly settle the returning soldiers, don't have contempt!"

"Your Majesty, rest assured!" Tobe ordered Gao Teng to stand up.

"The Pawn Administration is responsible for receiving the escorted Xiongnu royal family, nobles and envoys of the Xinli countries to be properly settled, and then disposed of after the soldiers are rewarded."

……

In order to welcome the soldiers returning from the great victory, these arrangements have already been planned, but now that the matter is approaching, the emperor must have to tell him again, otherwise it will not be good to make a mistake in the busyness and cause a lively welcome meeting to go wrong.

After Qin Shi Huang finished distributing the affairs of the three provinces and six departments, he turned his head to look at Chen Xu and said: "Ai Qingyan said that on the day of the return of the soldiers, he will perform the divine thunder fireworks, I don't know if I can prepare properly!" ”

Chen Xu also knew that the emperor would inevitably care about this matter, so he stood up and arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, everything has been prepared, in the middle of today, on the square in front of the main hall of the Xianyang Palace, there will be a total of twenty-seven divine thunder fireworks exploding in the night sky, and when the colorful flowing fire and colorful flames will take off, it will inevitably let the people of the whole city appreciate the extreme beauty of the divine thunder fireworks......"

"Divine Thunder Fireworks? What? In addition to Qin Shi Huang, Li Sifeng, Meng Yi and other officials from the three provinces and six ministries all looked at Chen Xu with doubts.

"Hehe, don't question it, I don't know what the Divine Thunder Fireworks are, Qinghe Hou has been hiding it from me, so I am also looking forward to it, since Qinghe Hou described it like this, so after the evening banquet, the civil and military officials and soldiers went out of the palace to enjoy the Divine Thunder Fireworks!" Qin Shi Huang smiled and waved his hand.

"Xu naturally will not disappoint His Majesty and your lords, but when the divine thunder fireworks are released, they are like thunder and lightning, in order to let the people of Xianyang not panic when the time comes, they can enjoy the beautiful scenery calmly, please ask Your Majesty to issue an edict to spread the word to the people of Xianyang, and when you hear thunder and lightning fireworks in the sky at night, don't be frightened and afraid!" Chen Xu saluted Qin Shi Huang again.

"Okay, Nei Shi Ling listens to the order!" Qin Shi Huang nodded.

"The minister is here!" Nei Shi made Qi Tang stand up.

"The patrol soldiers of the Lieutenant's Mansion told the people of Xianyang along the street that there were thunder fireworks in the sky at night, which were made by the Marquis of Qinghe to celebrate the return of the soldiers' victory, if you see lightning and thunder, don't panic, and at the same time pass an edict that Xianyang celebrates for three days, and there is no curfew at night!"

"Obey the order!"

The emperor wants to go out of the city to welcome the soldiers who return triumphantly, and all kinds of ceremonial guards and arrangements must be extremely complicated, but these are all things of the three provinces and six ministries, and Chen Xu has nothing to do with it, although he is also an official of the Ministry of Industry, but it seems that he is just a fake official, when everyone thinks of Chen Xu, they naturally think of the three words of Qinghe Hou, and many people have long forgotten that he is still the Zuo Zhonghou of the Ministry of Industry, and the Sanpin of the dynasty.

Countless edicts were sent from Zhongshu Province, countless edicts were transmitted from Shangshu Province to the various offices, and the guards, lieutenants, and Xuanwu guards all began to assemble and prepare when they heard the news, and a large number of soldiers went to the streets to control the streets and city gates leading to the north gate, and the messengers of the messengers had already set off by car with the edict in hand to prepare for Li Xin, and the officials of the various prefectures had already set off in advance to prepare for the arrival of the emperor thirty miles away.

With the issuance of these edicts and orders, and the soldiers patrolling the streets were also loudly announcing that there would be a fireworks display of divine thunder at night, so suddenly, the whole Xianyang was lively.

At the same time, the news that Li Xin and Jiang Hu and the victorious soldiers had arrived in Liyang and were about to return also spread rapidly in Xianyang City, and countless Xianyang people and hundreds of scholars who had already learned about this great victory from several consecutive issues of newspapers began to spontaneously flock to the streets to start celebrating, and many people learned that the emperor was going to go out of the city for thirty miles to greet them, and they all set off on horseback by car, and went to occupy a good position near Xingyuan in advance to see the soldiers returning triumphantly.

Xianyang has been the center of the Qin State since ancient times, so the people near Xianyang are also the old Qin people who love the Great Qin, and now the Great Qin dominates the world, as a Qin person, he naturally has an honor, and when he goes out to meet the people of the other former six countries, as soon as he hears that it is a Qin person, he will naturally be cautious and careful to be polite for three points, which is the glory of being a real old Qin person.

And this glory is inseparable from these soldiers who are fighting abroad.

Without these brave and fearless soldiers, the Great Qin people would not have the status they have in China today.

Therefore, the people of the old land of Qin, with Xianyang as the center, naturally also think that their identity and status are much higher than those in other places, which is not only spiritual satisfaction, but also status in reality.

The Qin people are proud of their military exploits, which is also the reason why the Qin people have such strong combat effectiveness, so for the soldiers who swept the Xiongnu and returned victorious, the old Qin people in the old land of Qin also showed enough enthusiasm.

Therefore, since the victorious soldiers led by Li Xin and Jiang Hu began to step into the scope of the Inner History Mansion, the officials, people, village elders and monks along the way have prepared drinks to welcome, and there are many people riding horses and chariots to accompany them, so as Li Xin and others get closer to Xianyang, there are more and more people to greet them, and more and more people accompany them, gradually developing to seventy or eighty thousand people, cheering and shouting around the soldiers who have returned triumphantly along the way, and the scene is lively and jubilant.

Before then, the emperor was escorted out of the city under the escort of 500 Xuanwu guards and 2,000 guards and 3,000 lieutenants and forbidden troops.

At the end of the day, the emperor arrived at the town of Dudu.

At this time, Du Zhen was already jubilant, the banners were shouting and the horses were neighing, and there were at least 100,000 people who came out to greet Xianyang City, and the ox carts and carriages were filled with dozens of miles.

The Emperor waited in his tent as the sun began to set in the west, but the heat did not cool him in the slightest.

In the midst of the enthusiastic and anxious waiting, it was already time for the Shen Shi, when suddenly a low and long horn sound came from the distance, and the crowd that came to welcome them instantly erupted like a volcano.

"I have heard the sound of the trumpet, I am afraid that it is a soldier who has returned triumphantly!" Many of the people in the crowd who were standing on the ox carts and carriages shouted excitedly.

"Report~, Your Majesty, Di Daohou and General Jiang Hu are less than ten miles away from here!"

As a few horses galloped into the middle of the line, the forbidden army who was in front of the probe knelt down on one knee in front of the emperor's tent to report.

"Ladies and gentlemen, go out with me to greet you!" Qin Shi Huang, who was sitting in the big tent, stood up, although there were palace maids around him to help with the fan, but at this time, it could be seen that the back of the emperor's dragon robe was already sweaty.

And the other group of civil and military ministers who came to greet them were all about the same, all of them had hot faces and red faces, and almost everyone shook a folding fan vigorously.

"Woo~~Woo~~~"

The long horn sounded one after another, and the distance was getting closer and closer, and although the scene was jubilant, the sound of horses' hooves could already be heard like muffled thunder, and the ground seemed to shake gently.

A black dragon flag emerged from the woods at the end of the sight, followed by neat horse pawns, followed by the black pressure banner waving and the people following the people, and among the horse pawns, there were dozens of prisoner carts, which were all detained by the Xiongnu royal family and nobles, as well as the envoys of Xinli and other countries.
