As soon as the sky was bright, the morning fog had not yet risen, Meng Yi came to look for Wuji, Wuji had already finished washing, dressed neatly, followed Meng Tian and Meng Yi out of Mengfu, Wuji and Meng Yi shared a car, and rushed straight to Xianyang Palace.

The carriage stopped in the wide carriage and horse yard in front of the palace gate, and hundreds of carriages that arrived early were arranged outside the palace wall in an orderly manner, following behind Meng Tian and Meng Yi without obstacles, and walked towards the towering palace gate.

There are guards on both sides of the palace gate for routine inspection, (Meng Yi is Lang Zhongling, one of the Nine Qings, the general leader of the palace, responsible for the emperor's guards, counselors, and subordinates, etc., and can enter and exit the palace with a sword.) When the guards saw Meng Tian and Meng Yi entering, they hurriedly stepped forward to pay their respects.

Walk into the palace gate, the majestic and magnificent hall is greeted in the face, although separated by the long corridor, you can still feel the strong oppressive trend, the purple pillar and golden beam, the red brick glazed tile, the golden splendor, the eaves are warped, the bucket arch is stacked, the intrigue, the palace is towering, the corridor is not curved, the momentum is magnificent.

Wuxian looked at the main hall and sighed secretly: "It has always been a place of right and wrong in the world. ”

The Imperial Forest Army stood majestically on both sides of the corridor and in the corridor, holding weapons, majestic, there were 3,000 people, and the civil and military officials who arrived early stood in front of the palace.

Meng Yi left Wuxian at the end of the hundred officials, and alone, entered the palace through the side door to greet the emperor.

Meng Tian walked up the high steps, saw Meng Tian's officials bowed down to greet him, congratulated him, and finally, he went to the front of the palace and stood side by side with several high-ranking officials, waiting for the court to enter the palace.

Fusu came from the east side, and after greeting Wuji, he also climbed the steps and waited in front of the temple gate.

After a short time, as soon as Chenyang showed a golden light, he heard the rumor shouting: "Enter the palace and ascend to the dynasty!" According to the rank of the hundred civil and military officials, the civil and military officials walked up the steps on both sides of the royal road, entered the main hall, and waited in line.

"The emperor has arrived!" rang the bell and struck the chime, two columns of Lang Zhongyu penetrated into the hall, Yingzheng wore a crown through the sky, wore a crown dress, tied a long sword at the waist, rode a chariot, pushed the cart by the inner attendant, the maid held up the canopy to accompany him, Zhao Gao bowed and walked in front, and the four corners were guarded by four strong cultivators, Meng Yi followed behind, passed through the royal road surrounded by Langzhong, Xu to His Majesty, supported by Zhao Gao, steadily ascended the high steps, and sat solemnly on the dragon chair.

The civil and military officials bowed to the ground and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Ying Zheng said loudly: "Everyone, Aiqing is flat!"

After the officials were leveled, Ying Zheng said to Meng Tian under the stage: "The old general lived up to expectations, only brought 200,000 troops, defeated Donghu and Xianbei, killed 80,000 enemies, and attacked the Xiongnu 3,000 miles in the north, killing a total of 330,000 enemies, causing the Xiongnu to suffer a catastrophe. ”

Meng Tian said: "Thanks to Your Majesty's love, Wechen is not hard, as long as Wechen still has the strength to spare, he will definitely serve the country, this time he can win more with less, all because Wechen met a genius, without him, Wechen categorically could not win a big victory." ”

Ying Zheng said: "I already know, quickly declare that there is no obstacle to enter the palace, I want to see it with my own eyes!"

The voice shouted: "Xuan Wu Barrier to meet ......" The voice came out of the hall in turn.

After hearing the edict, Wujian was led by Lang Zhong, walked up the steps quickly, entered the main hall, was already out of breath, glanced at the hall, and saw that the officials in the hall stood in four columns, several people were looking back at him, hurriedly lowered their heads, bowed to the ground in the temple gate, and shouted with a voice: "The grass people are unobstructed, knock on Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live, long live!" After speaking, his breath was not smooth, his throat was itchy, and he endured it, without coughing.

Ying Zheng watched from afar for a moment, and said loudly: "You take a hundred steps forward!"

Wuji stood up with his head down, slowly stepped forward a hundred steps, fifty steps away from Meng Tian, sixty steps away from Ying Zheng, knelt on the ground, and all the courtiers' eyes looked at him in unison.

Ying Zheng said: "Raise your head and let me see it!"

Wuji slowly straightened his waist, knelt on the ground, looked at the top of the high steps, and saw that Yingzheng was burly, with long eyebrows, a straight nose, beautiful hair and sideburns, a square face and ears, sitting majestically, full of imperial spirit.

Ying Zheng's face froze, and he wondered: "You don't have enough true qi in your body?"

Meng Yi was in front of Yingzheng, and hurriedly turned around and said, "Your Majesty, this righteous brother of Weichen is indeed suffering from a stubborn disease!"

Ying Zheng stroked his beard and said with a smile: "My current cultivation has reached the stage of concentrating, and I can detect the true qi in his body at a glance!"

All the ministers hurriedly shouted in unison: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Ying Zheng frowned, and asked: "Meng Yi, didn't you say that he is a wandering Taoist priest?

When Meng Yi heard this, his heart trembled, if he couldn't explain it clearly, it was a crime of defrauding the king, and when he was thinking about how to answer, he heard the unhindered saying: "Back to Your Majesty, the grass people's body is different from ordinary people, and they can only cultivate their minds, not gather their energy." ”

Ying Zheng asked, "How to cultivate the mind, can you strengthen the body and live forever?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people have cultivated a calm heart, no need to meditate and condense qi, cannot strengthen the body, and cannot live forever, just ask for a clear conscience. ”

"What is calmness?"

"Not delusional, not impatient, not greedy, not thinking, not hateful, not stupid, the heart is as clear as a mirror to stop the water, the hole is clear and clear, in order to spend the spring and autumn. ”

Ying Zheng laughed loudly: "Only cultivate the mind, not the qi, this is the first time I have heard of it, but your calm heart is like the heart of a lazy man who is at ease with what happens, but I can't cultivate it." ”

Without obstacles: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, conforms to the will of Heaven, and is born with the heart of an emperor, which is something that mortals can not cultivate for a hundred lifetimes." ”

Ying Zheng smiled and said: "That's right, I have another Aiqing who can talk, no obstacles, little Gaozi, declare the reward of the emperor's book!"

Zhao Gao was dressed in palace clothes, his face was white, his eyes were humble, he stepped forward and stood on the high steps in the center of the royal platform, facing the courtiers, unfolding the silk scroll, and said sharply: "The first emperor rewarded the emperor's book, the Great Qin Special Book, the general Meng Tian, defeated Donghu, Xianbei, The Huns, a total of 330,000 enemies, the title of nine original candidates, 8,000 households in the food city, Lang Zhong ordered Meng Yi, annihilated 80,000 Xiongnu in Shangjun, the marquis of Guannei, 3,000 households in the food area, the general Wang Ben guarded Longxi, causing the Yue clan to retreat without a fight, the title remained unchanged, the food and yi plus 1,000 households, the common people were unimpeded, and there were many surprises, annihilating 30,000 Xiongnu in Shangjun, killing 40,000 main forces of the Huns, and the title of the chief of the Dashu, and 10,000 stones, appointed as a counselor, the general Fan Gaocheng, and the meritorious ,...... to resist the Huns." After Zhao Gao read out the reward book emperor, he knelt down with the rewarded officials to thank him, and all the courtiers congratulated Meng Tian, Meng Yi and others, and were full of admiration.

Wuxian was led into the queue by Lang Zhong, standing in the eleventh of the column, and the ministers on both sides who were not yet familiar with him bowed down to congratulate, and Wujian returned the salute one by one.

"Minister, Zhou Qingchen has a play!" A voice suddenly sounded in the hall, the courtiers immediately quieted, heard the prestige, saw Zhou Qingchen steadily out of the ranks, and stood in the hall awe-inspiringly, "Qin Yihuaxia has been a year, and now he has defeated the northern barbarians, the world has stopped the army, Your Majesty is the carrier of the Son of Heaven, you should follow the example of King Wu of Zhou, divide the princes, and settle the world, Your Majesty does not make a big seal, and the ministers dare to ask Your Majesty, where do you want to put the descendants of the new dynasty, the emperor's relatives, and the holy king?"

Ying Zheng's face sank slightly, he had already expected it, "Since the doctor proposed, then the court discussion will be launched today, and you Aiqing will not avoid disagreements, but it doesn't hurt to say anything!"

"The old man is weak!" a white-haired old minister stepped forward slowly with a cane in his hand, "The old man wants to ask, why do you want to follow King Wu of Zhou?"

Zhou Qingchen said: "The Great Zhou Dynasty has been prosperous for 800 years, the princes have guarded the Son of Heaven, expanded the territory, guided the virtue and the courtesy, and the world has been governed, why not follow suit?"

Suddenly snorted weakly and coldly: "Eight hundred years of prosperity? As soon as King Wu died, when was the rebellion of the three eunuchs? Dog Rong invaded, the princes were in danger, how could they guard the Son of Heaven, if it wasn't for the bloody struggle of my Great Qin ancestors, how could I come to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States, the princes were divided, years of war, the Son of Heaven was obscene in the land of projectiles, how could I open up the territory and expand the territory, the etiquette collapsed, the people were miserable, how could I come to Dazhi, Huaxia has taken the wrong path for eight hundred years, and now I have jumped out of the fire pit, does the doctor want my Great Qin to jump back again? Since the appointment of Shang Jun by filial piety, the rule of law has made the country rich, the country rich and the army strong, so that my Great Qin has risen in a remote place, won the Central Plains, and annexed the six countries of Shandong.

A middle-aged doctor strode forward and said: "How wide is the territory of the old Qin? In one day, the territory of the Great Qin is more than ten thousand miles, day and night for seven days, not to Jiujiang, a huge empire, only by decree, how to govern the people, how can a net catch the fish of a river, although the six countries are dead, but the remnants have not disappeared, the undercurrents are surging in various places, and the division system is not implemented, how can the rebellion be quelled, the feng shui is different in various places, and the desire is uniform, how can the people be balanced, the people are not peaceful, and the world is peaceful?" After the uncle and grandson finished speaking, the courtiers applauded endlessly, and Yingzheng's face was solemn.

"Weichen is right!" Wang Ben stepped forward and said: "Since my Great Qin Iron Cavalry can unify China, it will naturally be able to quell the rebellion, the remnants of the six countries are not to be feared, if the division system is implemented, this foreign invasion, how can it be so quickly pacified, one system must be strong, the division system must be, the hard-earned foundation will fall apart and be put to waste, and the implementation of the county system, there are garrisons in various places, one side is in chaos, and the support of all directions, but the strength of the whole country can be eliminated, it is far better than the princes watching the fire from the other side, such a powerful governance style, how dare the people not obey!" Wang Jian and his son destroyed the Five Kingdoms, although Wang Jian died, but Wang Ben's prestige still existed, and his words were full of weight, and the cheers were one after another.

Wu Jian had seen Wang Ben from a distance at the Shangdang Inn, and now he looked at his majestic back up close, and he caught a glimpse of the high-ranking guard who had almost broken his neck, and he was looking at him as if he was recalling something, and he didn't care, let him think hard.

"The old minister is right!" Wang Juan said in an old voice, "For the world and the country, it is better to be virtuous, than to do righteousness, to virtue and righteousness, not to reward and persuade the people, not to punish and evil, this Shennong, the emperor's government, to virtue and righteousness, then the four seas are big, the water of the rivers can not be overbearing, Taihua is high, the danger of the Huiji, can not be obstacles, severe punishment and reward, virtue and righteousness do not exist, how can the people be responsible, Shang has loyal ministers and good generals, millions of teachers, why is it that the Western Zhou Dynasty died, Qi, Wei, Zheng, Chu, Han has changed the law, why is it that I was destroyed by Daqin, dividing the system and splitting the soil, it is not the fault of the saints, and the virtue and righteousness of later generations will not be implemented, and the Marquis of Tongwu only knows the way to use soldiers, but he does not know the way to take the people. After the old prime minister finished speaking, the court was silent, and suddenly the whole hall applauded, and Yingzheng fell into deep thought.
