"Even the Son of Heaven has to go to support Zhao Hou, and the king is still a small sect of the Zhao family in name, so why not go?"

In the Qin State, the Great Zheng Palace, the first snow fell from the gray sky and fell on the long beard of Pu, the eldest son of the Qin State's eldest son, making it impossible to distinguish which ones were snowflakes and which ones were white whiskers......

He was standing outside the main hall of the Dazheng Palace at this moment, begging Qin Bopan to listen to his advice and go to the "Yellow Pond Meeting". Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"The chief has a reasonable point, but it's just ...... Ahem......"

Qin Bopan is less than thirty years old, but he has not been in good health since he was a child, and he still has a slight cough standing in the hall at this moment. Mrs. Qin Bo hurriedly took the fox fur and put it on him, and said to Zipu quite dissatisfied: "Your Excellency has always been in poor health, and the eldest concubine still forced him to go thousands of miles away, is this still a loyal minister's move?" ”

Zipu sighed and said, "Why don't you know the difficulties of the reverse journey, and I also hope to go to the meeting of the Yellow Pond instead of you, but Zhao Guo made it clear that you want you to participate in it in person...... If the monarch does not go, on the one hand, it will appear that the Qin State is weak and cowardly, and on the other hand, it will also give the Zhao State an excuse to entangle the princes again and send troops to attack. ”

"The eldest concubine is going to make a threat!"

Mrs. Qin Bo has been quite resentful of him since Zipu asked her to send her son to Yecheng in Zhao Guo as a hostage, and she wants to stop it at this moment, but fortunately, Qin Bopan also knows the seriousness of this matter, and scolds her, asking her to stop saying those women's words again.

"But with the body of the king, if you catch a cold and freeze on the road, what should you do......" Mrs. Qin Bo, who had lost her son, had red circles in her eyes, for fear that her husband would never return.

"There are doctors from the Qin State to take care of it along the way, it doesn't matter, when we get to the Yellow Pond, it is already the beginning of spring, and Zhao Wuxian doesn't dare to let the monarch of the Qin State die of illness on the Huimeng platform, it is regarded as a hunt to the East, and the widow is nearly thirty years old, but he has never been to a place outside the Qin State. Hahaha, besides, if you go here, you may be able to see Thorn......"

Mrs. Qin Bo wiped her tears and promised with her chin, Uncle Qin was optimistic, but thinking of going to Zhao State as the son of the proton at a young age, the husband and wife were also distressed for a while, and God did not bless Qin Guo, although both of them tried their best, but in addition to the son's thorn, they had no other heirs, and several such as Mrs., Beauty, and Eight Sons only gave birth to male daughters......

The lack of prospering heirs has always been a big problem that has plagued Uncle Qin.

Thinking like this, Qin Bopan sat in the car of the princes who had been waiting for a long time, the canopy was high, the banner was raised, and the old man sat on the right side of the car, and drove with him to the outskirts of Yongcheng.

Yongcheng has not changed much compared with a few years ago, just like the character of the Qin people, the streets and alleys are straight and straight, horizontal and vertical, flat and stable, and even the street walls are either gray or black, and there is no beauty at all.

Backward and simple, has always been the style of this country, after the annual delivery of a large amount of grain compensation to Zhao State, it is even more difficult, this cold winter wax moon, I don't know how many people have no clothes and no brown, it is difficult to continue.

But no matter how difficult it is, the people of the Qin State who got up early and were busy working on the street saw that the monarch's car had been driven, they would still bow down in the snow, greet him with a smiling face and a high-pitched Qin accent, and then continue to sing and dance to please the gods of Qin.

Looking at these Qin people who were happy in their suffering, Qin Bopan's eyes were sour, he sighed, and said: "I heard that Yecheng has become the center of the East, known as 'Jincheng Qianli', which is countless times more prosperous than Yongdu. If the widow has three longs and two shorts, he is afraid that he will really want the son to return to the country and succeed to the throne, and the widow is afraid that he will live too comfortably in Yecheng and be influenced by too much Zhao Guolile Fadu, and he already thinks that he is really the Zhao family, and Zhao Wuxian is his father! ”

The eldest chief hurriedly comforted him and said, "Although the prince is young, he has been sending letters in the past few years, and it should be more than that...... On the contrary, it is in the ears of Zhao State, and you may be able to know the reason for its sudden rise, and after you come back, you will benefit and benefit the law of Zhao State in Qin State and change the law......"

"Change the law......" Zipu didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as he said Qin Bo, he was even more worried, he suddenly held Zipu's hand and said: "Dashu Chang, when the widow was young, you were my master, teaching me a lot of things, and the widow also knew that you were dedicated to the public, so after the surrender of the Qin State, although many people in the clan instigated that they would punish you, they were all suppressed by the widow. ”

Zipu's heart trembled: "The grace of the king's protection, the old minister knows." ”

"But now, the widow has one thing that worries him the most, that is, the chief of the great concubine is easier to the Qin system, if it is just like the sharp soldiers who originally trained full-time soldiers in Lantian, it is okay, at most it will cost more money and food every year. But now what the chief of the Great Mansion is doing in the Qin State, I'm afraid it's not easy, and it has already provoked the anger of the public......"

The reforms of the Qin state were implemented by Zipu after his defeat at the hands of the Zhao state four years earlier.

In the first year, Zipu secretly trained the "Ruishi" of the Qin State who imitated Zhao Wushu and Wei Wushu in Lantian State, and in the second year, he promulgated and implemented the "Zhao Law" of Zhao State in Qin State, but changed some items, such as adding the law of joint sitting, and using heavy punishment for minor crimes.

These are okay, after all, the ancestors of the Qin State are also the ancestors of the law, Gaotao, and it is completely possible to prevaricate the past by restoring the ancestral system, but by last year, the reform began to enter the deep water area.

Zipu ignored the fact that he was the biggest Shiqing of the Qin State, and resolutely abolished the old Shiqing Shilu system that had lasted for hundreds of years! Promote promotion based on merit. At the same time, military merits were rewarded, private fights were prohibited, and Zhao Guo was emulated, and the twelve lords system of rewards according to military merits was promulgated!

For a while, the old husbands of the Qin State, whose interests had been violated, were excited, and they didn't care that Zipu was their elder, they resisted it one after another, and ran to the Dazheng Palace to cry to Mrs. Qin Bo, saying that Zipu was old and confused, and he was digging the roots of the Qin State.

This is not over, in the household registration system, Zipu also forced the implementation of individual small families, declaring, "It is forbidden for fathers, sons and brothers to live in the same room", that is, fathers, sons and adult brothers are prohibited from living in the same room.

Compared with other vassal states, the Qin State is located in the remote West, although from the Qin Xianggong era admired and learned Chinese culture, but there have always been a lot of Rong Di customs, such as the family of men and women living in the same room, three generations and four generations are not separated, which has created many large clans, in the countryside The power is intertwined, and can even openly argue with the Yongcheng government, Zipu knows that if the household registration is not in the hands of the government, the Qin State is not strong, and the tax cannot be raised.

But the conservative power of the people is huge, the new law has been implemented in the people for a whole year, and all local clans in the Qin State have sent their children to the national capital to say that the new law is inconvenient, and at most, thousands of people blocked outside the Zipu Mansion and begged him to let the people go and let the Qin State go......

These opposing voices were suppressed by Zipu, who monopolized the power of the Qin State, and Qin Bopan could only watch the new law continue to be implemented with apprehension because he trusted him.

"Why don't they understand?" After persuading Qin Bo to leave, Zipu closed his eyes tiredly.

The state of Zhao is getting stronger and stronger, while the state of Qin has reached the level of "if it does not change, it is dangerous, and if it does not change, it will perish".

"There are countless laws in the world that have not changed for hundreds of years, as long as they are beneficial to the country, they should not blindly imitate the old system. Therefore, Tang Wu did not follow the ancient times and became kings, and Xia Yin died with no courtesy. If the old clans of the Qin State do not make changes and continue to follow the old system of etiquette and music, then the Qin State will always be just a small state in the west that is allowed to be annexed by the Zhao State! The princes are humble and ugly! ”

Zipu has made up his mind, during the absence of the monarch, the changes can be eased slightly, but when the monarch returns, he will have to carry out more in-depth changes!

"Tu has a few years to live, and he just wants to be able to legislate for the Qin state system and the people in his lifetime, so that he will be able to revitalize the country. I don't dare to say that I am fighting with Zhao, but at least I can keep the hundreds of years of foundation of the Qin State, and I can also make the surrounding Rong Di dare not invade! Let the princes not dare to despise Qin! ”

The chief of the Qin state made up his mind to persist in changing the law, and Qin Bopan's convoy slowly traveled eastward along the Weishui and Cuihan ancient roads, arriving at Luoyang, the capital of the Son of Heaven, in mid-December.

And here, in the northern suburbs of Luoyang, Zhou Wanglu also had a gloomy face, sat in the car of the Son of Heaven, and prepared to go to Huangchi to add color to Zhao Wuxian's alliance......
