Longxi County, since Qin destroyed Xirong, Yiqu placed.

Rejecting Xiqiang on the right and protecting Xianyang on the left, Longxi County has always been an important frontier town of the Great Qin Empire, with no less than 100,000 garrisons all year round.

As the political center of the empire, Xianyang is named after the hinterland of the Qinchuan River for 800 miles, with Weishui running through the south, the mountains and mountains in the north, and the meaning of mountains and rivers are yang.

The water of Jingwei has nurtured generations of tenacious, unyielding, brave and iron-blooded old Qin people.

"Your Majesty for 10,000 years, Great Qin for 10,000 years."

"Ten thousand years for the father, ten thousand years for the Great Qin."

Outside the Xianyang Palace, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the princes also knelt on the ground to welcome the first emperor.

"No courtesy."

Ying Zheng got out of the car and waved at everyone.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and the princes stood up, and then bowed to Wang Jian behind Yingzheng and Princess Ying Yuanman of Huayang: "I have seen the eldest princess, the old general Wang." ”

"The edict set up a banquet letter palace to wash the dust for the old general Wang and the eldest princess."

Ying Zheng is not in the royal car, he has been sitting for too long, which makes him a little uncomfortable, and it is more comfortable to take a walk appropriately.

"Minister, obey."

CRRC ordered Bai Zhuo to receive the order immediately.

Ying Zheng's eyes glanced slightly, but he didn't find Li Si's figure.

Feng Qujian saw that His Majesty seemed to be looking for someone, and immediately comprehended the divine way: "Your Majesty, Li Xiang is ill and is recuperating in the mansion. ”

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Li Si dedicated his youth to Daqin, Bai Zhuo, you personally go to the treasury to pick a thousand-year-old ginseng and send it over." ”

"Minister, let's go!"

Bai Zhuo took the order again, and then trotted away.

Ying Zheng led hundreds of civil and military officials to the letter palace and sat down.

Looking at the hundreds of officials who were all seated, Ying Zheng spoke: "I have specially prepared a feast today to entertain all Aiqing. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Everyone, with a look of anticipation on their faces, bowed to Yingzheng who was sitting on the throne.

Soon a group of attendants walked in with copper plates, and in a moment, a copper plate was placed on the table in front of everyone.

Everyone looked at it, and their faces were suddenly stunned.

Looking at the people in a daze, Ying Zheng said expressionlessly: "What are you doing in a daze?" Let's eat! ”

"Your Majesty, the thing in this plate is tree bark, how to lower the stomach?"

Doctor Mao Jiao looked embarrassed and said to Ying Zheng.

A word stirred up a thousand waves, some people took the lead, and those who hesitated began to speak out one after another.

"Your Majesty, how to eat this grain root?"

"Your Majesty, this is clearly a leaf, and the minister can't eat it!"

"Your Majesty, isn't this grass a livestock?"

Suddenly, as soon as you say a word, I say a word, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty said one after another.

All in all, it's roughly the same meaning, if you want to eat these things, you can't do it!

At this moment, Ying Zheng glanced at the rice bran on the plate in front of him, then picked up the silver spoon and began to eat.

As soon as he entered it, the rough taste made Ying Zheng feel like a fish in his throat and difficult to swallow.

This is still rice bran after refining, and even then it is difficult to swallow.

But even so, Ying Zheng was still expressionless, and began to eat the rice bran on his plate without turning a deaf ear.

The ministers, who were sitting relatively close, watched this scene, and their eyelids trembled.

The ministers who sat far away, although they couldn't see clearly what His Majesty was eating, but looking at the expressions of the adults in front of them, they knew that they might not be much better than what they were on their plates.

Every time Ying Zheng swallowed a mouthful of coarse chaff, the hearts of the people below felt heavy.

Until Yingzheng finished eating, he showed a satisfied look, as for the truth or falsehood, I'm afraid only he knows it.

Looking at the people who were still in a daze, Ying Zhenghu was stunned and shouted: "Could it be that you Aiqing think that you are more noble than me?" ”

This......

As soon as these words come out, who dares to wait and see what happens?

No matter how reluctant you are in your heart, you have to admit it if you pinch your nose.

Everyone immediately began to move, crying with a face, and forcibly swallowed the ghost thing they had never eaten in their lives!

At first, it was fine, but soon someone couldn't stand it and squirted it directly.

Others wept bitterly while eating, muttering that the rites were often lost.

After waiting for everyone to finish eating, Ying Zheng raised his eyelids and asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think of this feast?" Is it tasty? ”

"It's delicious."

Although everyone has five flavors churning in their stomachs, they can only ignore their conscience.

Wang Jian and the eldest princess Ying Yuanman are embarrassed, what about the good thing to pick up the wind and wash the dust?

Which one is this?

Fortunately, His Majesty did not let the two of them eat, and it was precisely because of this that they felt like they were sitting on the tip of a needle, but became a bystander.

"Delicious? In my life, I have never eaten such an unpalatable ...... Well! Food! ”

Ying Zheng looked at a group of Manchu civil and military who only knew flattery, and was a little disappointed in his heart.

"Your Majesty, what kind of food is this, this is clearly tree bark, rice husks, and grass...... Not among the grains. ”

Seeing the eyes cast by His Majesty, Wang Jian thought about it slightly in his heart, and then opened his mouth to cooperate.

"The old general said well, this is indeed not food, because these things are not for people to eat, only animals eat these things."

Ying Zheng is a pun, and he doesn't scold people with a dirty word.

The civil and military officials sitting below all had embarrassed and ugly faces, but none of them dared to refute them.

"Your Majesty says so, then why?"

Wang Jian understood the truth so far, and he was puzzled.

"That's a good question! Why do I want to do this, you Aiqing think I am humiliating you? Scolding you? Not ......"

"I haven't been so vulgar, Huang and Huai have been raining heavily for several months, the two rivers have burst their banks, flooded, and southern Xinjiang has become a veritable hometown of the ocean."

"I heard that many people in the local area have no harvest, and the hungry people are starving everywhere."

"I also heard that the seven counties of Guanzhong, Longxi, Shangdang, and Beidi have been plagued by long-term drought, and displaced people are everywhere, and there are many complaints."

"I also heard that the four counties of Liaodong have had a rare locust plague for a hundred years, and there is no grass growing everywhere they pass."

"And that's what the people of the world eat these days, and it's even worse than these."

"Have you all heard about it?"

Every word of Yingzheng is like a sharp blade, piercing everyone's hearts.

Every sentence is as heavy as a thousand pounds, making everyone's faces ugly.

"The ministers are guilty, and Your Majesty is angry."

The crowd immediately stood up, walked to the middle avenue, knelt down and shouted in unison.

"Guilty? Indeed, you are all guilty, and you deserve to be punished. Liaodong was first a county, but because Xiangping County was afraid of affecting his political achievements, he hid and did not report it, causing a catastrophe and flooding, and not dying was not enough to be angry among the people. ”

"The embankments on both sides of the Huanghuai River have just been repaired, and they cost 20 million yuan, how long will it take for the embankment to burst? Where did my money go? ”

"The land of Guanlong, Fenshui, Luoshui, Jingshui, Weishui, and Shuishui...... The tributaries are staggered, and hundreds of rivers converge, why is there such a drought? Who gave them the right to profit from the water? And who's backing them up? ”

After Ying Zheng finished speaking, he slapped the wooden case in front of him fiercely, and let out a heavy roar.

Many of the things on the table were shaken to the ground, making a bumping sound.

The civil and military ministers kneeling below watched His Majesty be furious, trembling one by one, and their hearts and galls were broken......
