I am Zhao Zheng, King of Qin.

Unexpectedly, I casually got a latrine, but I picked up a great talent who has not been able to govern the world for thousands of years - Zhuge Dark.

When I first learned the news, I subconsciously refused.

I really want to explain it on the spot, in fact, I have never heard of you at all, and I didn't come to Wolong Village, where birds don't, to find you!

I'm just having a bad stomach, and I just want to find a toilet to pay off!

What are you talking about three visits to the thatched house, it's obviously a three-way thatched toilet, okay?!

There may be some misunderstanding between the two of us, this Mr. Zhuge Yan must not think too much!

When Zhao Zhenggang wanted to refuse like this, he suddenly thought about it, he was going to Qinchuan, and his personal guards and elite personal guards were complete.

There is also Gao De who temporarily serves as his own palace housekeeper, and Wan'er and 'Girls' Generation are his personal maids, serving him at all times.

It stands to reason that there are already a lot of talents around me on this trip, which is enough for me not to spend too much effort, just eat, drink and have fun all day long!

But when he saw this Zhuge Dark, he suddenly remembered that there was still a very important key person missing by his side!

That is the talent who governs the world in place of himself!

After all, I don't bother to care about those things, and I know in my heart that I have a few brushes, and I don't have the ability to care about those things at all.

But how can no one govern Qinchuan, resulting in the misery of the people of Qinchuan County, the difficulties of the people, and in the end, if they can't even collect the basic taxes, then what should they do, is it difficult to drink the northwest wind? ?

Therefore, Zhao Zheng's mind was in a hurry, and he finally decided to keep this Mr. Zhuge Kongliang by his side, so as to assist him in governing Qinchuan.

So in the mighty convoy of King Qin, there was another 'thatched monk' who pulled a large cart of books, a cloth coat, a slightly broken feather fan, and nothing else-Zhuge Dark.

……

"What kind of road is this?"

In the slightly bumpy Wang car, Zhao Zheng lifted the curtain quite annoyed, looking at the drizzling rain and muddy path outside the window, and couldn't help but feel a little impatient.

Although he wanted to get to Qinchuan slowly, he hated the endless rain even more, and he didn't like the potholed paths, and even sitting in such a wide and stable king car, he could feel a clear sense of bumps.

This made him very unhappy, but there was really nothing he could do.

Since leaving Nanyang County, going north, it has become more and more desolate along the way, and it is difficult to meet the people of the village for a long time.

Although the scenery on the road is magnificent, the more I see it, the more I feel like it, and the joy I felt when I first saw it was gone.

Especially when the official road was gradually interrupted, and he could only take the country roads everywhere, and even when there were no wild roads, he was bumped on the king's car all day long, and Zhao Zheng's mood was even worse.

"This Liangzhou...... Sure enough, the state is as its name suggests, isn't this too cool? ”

Zhao Zheng, who was born in the Taiji Palace, really saw with his own eyes for the first time how remote the so-called remote place is!

People who barely live in such poor mountains and rivers have naturally developed a temperament pattern of being brave and victorious and liking force.

Only with superb force can we survive better in this desolate and barren land!

This is also the foundation of the prosperity of the Zhao people, and even the current cadres, in terms of military strength and military prosperity.

In such a situation, how can the cadres learn from the great powers of the Central Plains that they emphasize literature and ignore military force, and only know how to chew words all day long?

Therefore, the entire Daqian Dynasty, advocating force and disliking corrupt literature, has long become a general trend that pervades the government and the opposition.

It is no wonder that the Daqian Dynasty, which rose in the borderlands, will be so belittled and disgusted by the big countries of the Central Plains, just because of the difference in geography and culture, it is really impossible to plan in the way!

"Uncle De! Uncle De! ”

In a state of turmoil, Zhao Zheng subconsciously opened his mouth and shouted.

"What does Your Highness command?"

In just a few breaths, Gao De, who was dressed in rain, galloped over and said respectfully at the window.

"Go on like this...... But how long is the schedule? ”

Yes, Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin, who was bumped and somewhat doubted about his life.

For the first time, a strange idea arose in my mind that I wanted to arrive at Qinchuan as soon as possible.

Because after this period of personal experience, it seems that the difference between this ancient long-distance trip and the modern self-driving trip in my impression is not too big, okay?!

This is a relaxing trip, this is clearly a sin, okay!!

"Your Highness, the official road in Liangzhou is cut off, the path is difficult to walk, and it has been rainy and muddy for days, this schedule is ...... I'm afraid it's going to be delayed until two months later. ”

Gao De looked at the muddy path that could not be seen at a glance, and he really didn't have much confidence about the next trip.

"What? Two months?? ”

Zhao Zheng was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't believe his ears for a while!

This has obviously arrived in Liangzhou, but why has the total trip not only not been shortened, but greatly lengthened? ?

There's no official way to do this, isn't it really so slow?!

He was in a hurry at the moment, and subconsciously shouted!

"Never! Hurry up the itinerary and strive to rush to Qinchuan within a month!! ”

Gao De was stunned at first when he heard this, and then he was stunned, and immediately gave up!

"Whoa!"

As soon as King Qin gave an order, the mighty convoy of king's chariots suddenly lost the original leisurely and comfortable atmosphere, and the entire convoy was completely filled with a sense of urgency and eagerness!

All the guards, slaves and servants all understand that His Royal Highness the King of Qin cares about the people of Qinchuan and wants to arrive in Qinchuan County as soon as possible!

Since then, the speed of the entire convoy has increased significantly, and it has been accelerated to the north and headed straight for Qinchuan!

……

[...... after January]

"Your Highness! Ahead, it's Qinchuan County! ”

Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin, looked at the railing, looked at the faintly visible boundary monument stone from a distance, and couldn't help but nod with joy on his face.

"Good! Finally arrived in Qinchuan! ”

Zhao Zheng, who had been bumpy on the road for more than a month, looked at the increasingly desolate and barren land, but a feeling of joy rose in his heart for no reason.

Although this Qinchuan County is broken and poor, and the population is scarce, but the area is a little larger, but it is useless, but it borders Beidi and Dali, so that there are endless wars all year round.

But even in such a tattered border county, in Zhao Zheng's eyes at this moment, there is a sense of intimacy for no reason!

It's just because this Qinchuan County is so unbearable, but it is the fief of his relatives of Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin!

Even if the people in Qinchuan County are poor, they are also the subjects under the rule of Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin!!

This huge Qinchuan County, from the moment he, the king of Qin, Zhao Zheng, set foot on this land, will always belong to him alone!

He is the unique king of the entire Qinchuan, and he is the rightful ruler of Qinchuan!

His palace is called the palace, the place where his palace is located is called the national capital, and his fief can also be called the Qin state!

This Qinchuan, since the Taiji Holy Emperor personally conferred it, has become a country within a country, and has become a subsidiary country that pays tribute to Daqian on schedule!

And he is the supreme ruler of this land!

He is Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin!

He is the monarch of Qin!!

Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng only felt a sense of pride in his chest, and he couldn't help but raise his head on the railing and laugh loudly!

"Qin Chuan! This king is here! Aha! ”

……

"Brother Huang! It's really boring! I'll wait to go out and hunt some game! ”

The long-term and cookie-cutter long journey also made Zhao Yun, the seventh princess who was still full of interest, lose interest.

Thanks to her sudden interest in going out hunting, I really don't know if she would have been able to hold on until now......

"Okay...... Then call Yunyi and Zicheng and go together! ”

Zhao Zhengluo groaned, and then nodded in agreement, but there were other thoughts in his heart.

He had just entered Qinchuan, and although he was the rightful owner of this land, he really didn't know much about the county under his rule.

Just take this opportunity to visit the county and learn a little about the customs and customs of the county, so as to make some preparations in advance for the future governance of Qinchuan.

Thinking of this, his heart moved, but he immediately added.

"By the way, let's call the generals and divisions again......"

Zhao Yun was stunned at first when she heard this, and she didn't understand why she had to take the military advisor Zhuge Dark when she went out hunting, but she didn't ask much, but immediately went to arrange it.

I don't know why, since Zhuge Dian joined the convoy, the imperial brother opened his mouth to be commensurate with a military advisor, even if Zhuge Dark repeatedly explained that he was not good at marching and fighting, but also good at government affairs, stargazing and strange things.

But the imperial brother just didn't listen, he had to be commensurate with the military division, and he specially wrote the royal book for Zhuge Secretly, and was promoted from a cloth cloth to the military division of the Qin State!

Even if this so-called Qin State army division does not have a single soldier or horse in hand at present......

But His Royal Highness King Qin's trust and recognition of Zhuge Dark is well known to everyone!

And such a high-standard courtesy, since Zhuge secretly grateful, has to meet the master, how can he not do his best and swear allegiance?

"What? His Highness went hunting...... Ordered me to go with me? ”

Zhuge was sitting alone in the car, holding a simple book to study the art of war, but unexpectedly got the news that His Highness ordered him to go hunting together.

Although he had doubts, he immediately put down the military book, hurriedly got up and prepared, and waited for His Highness to summon him at any time.

- Although he is not good at the art of war, but His Highness personally appointed him as the military master of the Qin State, how can he not read the military books intensively, in case His Highness needs it at any time?

And when he just got up, he inadvertently looked at the desolate scenery outside the window, and he suddenly realized!

His Royal Highness called him to go hunting together, and it turned out that the drunkard didn't mean to drink!

It looks like hunting, but in fact, it is to visit the scenery of Qinchuan, understand the geography and people, and know in advance.

Otherwise, how could he summon his powerless military advisor to go with him?

Thinking of this, Zhuge couldn't help but move slightly in his heart, and the movements under his hands subconsciously sped up a little.

A quarter of an hour later, five people and five horses broke away from King Qin's convoy and roared into the distance.

However, the mighty convoy of King Qin did not have the slightest impact due to the departure of His Royal Highness King Qin, as if he had long been accustomed to it.

"Zicheng, you grew up in Qinchuan since you were a child...... You must be very familiar with Qin Chuan, right? ”

In the empty wilderness, Zhao Zheng slowly stood on his horse, looked into the distance, and asked casually.

"Back to Your Highness, although the dragon has grown up in Qinchuan since childhood, the size of Qinchuan is far more than several times that of Shenwei County! And most of them are desolate and uninhabited, so there are many places that the dragon has never visited, but they may not know much about it......"

Zhao Long's face was embarrassed, as if he felt a little ashamed that he grew up in Qinchuan but was not familiar with Qinchuan.

"Huh...... It doesn't matter! The size of Qin Chuan is indeed far greater than that of ordinary counties, and it is normal that you don't know much about Zicheng......"

Zhao Zheng waved his hand indifferently, and then said next.

"But I don't know that there are populated villages in this radius of a hundred miles?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone who traveled with them understood that although His Highness's trip was hunting, it was actually a visit.

Otherwise, in this desolate place, why not look for game, but ask where the people are?

"Your Highness, I might as well go all the way north, I should be able to find a trace of people......"

At this time, the military advisor Zhuge Dark suddenly said that Qinchuan is in the north, and the further north it goes, the more it will enter the hinterland of Qinchuan, and it should be more densely populated.

The rest of the crowd couldn't help but nod their heads lightly when they heard this, quite agreeing.

"Yes! Then according to the words of the military advisor, go straight to the north! ”

Zhao Zheng also bowed his head, and after deciding on the spot, he said, 'Drive!' With a sound, the royal horse galloped and took the lead!

'Drive! ’

Then the four of them all set off, followed behind His Royal Highness King Qin, and walked all the way to the north.

After galloping for dozens of miles, I finally saw the curling smoke and sparse houses at the end of the sight.

"Your Highness, look! There is a village in front of the house! ”

Zhao Long pointed ahead, turned his head and said excitedly!

"Good! Then let's go quickly! ”

Zhao Zheng flicked his horsewhip as he spoke, and skillfully galloped on his horse, heading straight for that large village.

Soon, at full speed, the outline of the village appeared more clearly in front of everyone's eyes.

Suddenly, everyone slowed down their horses and galloped away.

Guan Fei, who had never been to Qinchuan before, was even more curious, and couldn't help but look around, looking at everything around him.

But who knew that while the royal horse was marching, he inadvertently glanced at a ravine, but his face immediately changed greatly, and he couldn't help but subconsciously urge the horse to step forward, and immediately fixed his eyes!

"Your Highness!"

Under this look, Guan Fei's face changed several times, and he couldn't help shouting!

This shout immediately surprised everyone, and they saw him standing beside an inconspicuous ravine, his face solemn, and he stopped moving, and even though he was puzzled, he followed.

"Your Highness, look ......"

Zhao Zheng's face was strange, and he suddenly looked at the place where Guan Fei was pointing, only one glance, but the color changed at the moment!

"What?!"

Zhao Zheng suddenly exclaimed!

But everywhere I looked, there were dead babies all over the place, curled up with hands and feet, covered in clothes, and even naked!

Filled the whole ravine!!

The rest of the people saw this situation, and their faces changed, and they couldn't help but exclaim in unison!

"This?!"

……

"In the twelfth year of Shenwu, there was a great hunger in Qinchuan, and dead babies were everywhere."
