The emperor's chariot drove along the gallop and walked slowly. On both sides of the road, industrious farmers began to plough the land that had not yet completely melted in preparation for spring ploughing.

In the evening of this day, the emperor's car approached Liyang City. The civil and military officials of all sizes in the city, as well as the squires and gentlemen, all went out of the city to kneel and greet them.

When Wang Rong led his army in Guanzhong, he had never been here at all, and this time was the first time he had been to this ancient capital.

Liyang was one of the capitals of Qin during the Warring States period, and in the early Warring States period, Wei took advantage of Qin's civil strife to seize Qin's Hexi land.

In 384 B.C., after Qin Xiangong ascended the throne, he was determined to recover the land of Hexi, and in 383 B.C., he built Liyang City in Liyi, moved the capital to Liyang, and then carried out a series of reforms, carried out a military counterattack against Wei, and initially changed the situation of passive beating.

After the death of Qin Xiangong, his son Qin Xiaogong inherited his career. Qin Xiaogong appointed Shang Ying to carry out a series of reforms, making the poor and weak Qin State one of the most advanced and wealthy countries among the countries, laying a solid foundation for the later Qin Shi Huang to unify China.

In 350 B.C., Shang Ying issued a second decree in Liyang, moving the capital from Liyang to Xianyang. Liyang as the capital of the Qin State is only 34 years, during this period the Qin State is in a period from weak to strong, so Liyang has an important position in the history of the capital of the Qin State.

Since 350 B.C., after Qin Xiaogong moved the capital from Liyang to Xianyang, Liyang County still has not lost its prosperity. It is the only place where Xianyang land passes through the three Jin Dynasty, and it is the transportation hub of Guanzhong. From Xianyang to the east, through Gaoling, Liyang, Chongquan, to Linjin Pujin to cross the Yellow River, to the north to Taiyuan, Shangdang. Merchants from east to west passed through here, so commerce was relatively developed.

Liyang County governs a large area of land north of the Wei River, which is located in the Weihe River Plain, the land is fertile, the agriculture is developed, from 246 BC to 236 BC, the Qin State dug the Zhengguo Canal, after the completion of the construction, many of the land in the north of Liyang County can be irrigated, making the agriculture here flourish.

It was also once an important weapons industrial base of the Qin State, not only there were engineers, but also the left and right workshops, the scale was extremely large, and the pottery and smelting industry of Liyang were very developed.

Yingwu later built the Dongwei Bridge in Weishui to facilitate the traffic between Xianyang and Liyang. Then dig the white canal, divert the Jing water, start from the mouth of the Jingyang Valley in the west, and end into Liyang, with a total length of more than 200 li, and irrigate about 5,000 hectares. The white canal has irrigated almost all the fields in Liyang County, and with the implementation of agricultural laws and the renewal of agricultural tools, it has become an important place for grain production in Guanzhong.

After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, many generals of the Yong Dynasty were tired of fighting and killing, so they disarmed and returned to their hometowns.

Since ancient times, there has been a change of dynasties, and there is no right or wrong when it comes to power. In the whirlpool of power, how many people can really see it! But those who see clearly, and those who retreat bravely from the rapids, have great wisdom.

It's like in Liyang City at this time, Qin Zhong, Marquis of Liyang in the Yong Dynasty. Qin Zhong is the uncle of Emperor Yongming Qin Heng, who was born and died for Yongguo for decades, and when he is old, he does not help his children to ask for it, he does not help his grandchildren to ask for it, and he is the great wisdom to eat, drink and have fun.

"Ministers knock before the Holy One, and the Holy One is in peace!"

Inside and outside the city gates, the sound of mountains and tsunamis was loud. Shocked by the sunset, it quickly lowered down.

"Old Marquis, you're in good health!" Wang Rong stood at the steps of the carriage, smiled and said to Qin Zhong, the Marquis of Liyang, who was driving, "Hurry up and pick up the old marquis!"

Qin Zhong was supported by several people, and his complexion was very poor. Qin Zhong grinned and said, "Oh, what a healthy health! The old minister said to you, Holy Lord, you almost won't see the old minister!"

"What's wrong?" Wang Rong stepped out of the carriage, took the old marquis's hand and smiled, "But you're sick?"

"I fell last month, and I almost didn't kill the old minister, you see!" The old man pointed to his teeth, "I didn't have a single tooth, and I was faint for two days!"

"At that time, the children and grandchildren thought that the old minister was about to finish, and the shroud was ready."

"You're blessed!" Wang Rong said with a smile.

"The old minister pondered, he didn't die under the sword in his life, but fell to his death, what a nest!" The old man smiled, "So, the old minister held his breath and lived again!"

Wang Rong also smiled and said, "You are blessed with a great fortune! If you don't die in a great calamity, you will be blessed!"

"What a blessing! Now I can't drink wine, I can't eat meat, I can't play with girls, and I can't break my legs......

"Daddy, Daddy!" Qin Jing, the eldest son of the Marquis of Liyang, who was holding the old man, had a flushed face, "In front of the Holy Lord, you are somewhat measured!"

The old man also knew that he had lost his words, but his face was neither red nor white, and he grinned, "When people are old, they will break their mouths. Holy family please, the old minister has already made arrangements for him, you must live in the old minister's house, otherwise you will not give the old minister face!"

Subsequently, Wang Rong concisely said a few words of encouragement to the officials such as the Liyang County Commander, and then lived in the mansion of the Liyang Marquis Mansion in the city.

The Liyang Hou Mansion is not luxurious, and the whole mansion exudes a rustic taste of good people. The soldiers of the Xiaojie Guard and the personal guard division first checked the inside and outside of the Liyang Marquis' Mansion, and then took three steps and one post, and five steps and one sentry.

Wang Rong lives alone in the best cross-courtyard in the mansion, and there is a separate small kitchen in the courtyard, in which Qin Zhong's old wife, with several granddaughters, is busy in the kitchen himself.

In the main hall, Wang Rong sat at the top, Qin Zhong at the bottom, and his sons stood solemnly from afar.

"Old Marquis, what are you?" Wang Rong smiled and said, "The person who entertained me today is different from others."

As he spoke, Wang Rong's nose moved, he smelled the smell of hot noodle soup outside, and said with a smile: "Home-cooked delicious, but it's a lot stronger than those noodles!"

"Huh!" Qin Zhong smiled, "Didn't the old minister think that if he made it too public, he would be a foreigner?"

"Oh, the old marquis is not an outsider to treat me," Wang Rong took a sip of tea and smiled, "I know that the old marquis is proficient in eating, drinking, and having fun."

Qin Zhong is a good person, and Wang Rong has something to say, so he shouldn't have heard it.

"You are an old minister of the Yong Dynasty, and you have served His Majesty Emperor Yongming for so many years, and you are still the elder of the Marquis of Shangqi. Speaking of which, we are indeed relatives, so we don't have to be so pretentious in front of me!" Wang Rong said again, "Don't let alone show anyone, you are a person who is raised at home, who can do anything to you?"

"The old minister is not for himself!"

He made himself think that he was old, he only knew how to eat, drink and be merry, and he was also arrogant and extravagant, but in fact, most of it was done for others to see. As for who it is for, they know each other.

"The old minister's mother-in-law hasn't cooked in person for many years. Today, the minister asked her to cook, firstly, to give the Holy Lord, and secondly, to express her gratitude!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand to let his children and grandchildren go away, leaned on crutches, got up and saluted, and said in a low voice: "The Holy Lord went out to conquer Bashu, and the Marquis of Shangqi used his arm as a car, but you were magnanimous and spared the life of the Marquis of Shang, and the old minister was really ...... in his heart."

Wang Rong didn't let him finish, patted his hand, and said with relief, "Don't mention the past!"

Qin Zhong said it sincerely, only to hear him continue: "The old minister is even more grateful to the Holy Lord, who is wise and martial, broad-minded, and able to tolerate us old and decrepit people of the previous dynasty, those old brothers, are also fools, and they don't know the depths!" The old man, "The Holy One is wise and powerful, and it is a blessing for the ministers to tolerate us old and decrepit."

Wang Rong had the intention to tease him, and said, "Oh, what you said is a bit too much, what does it mean to be tolerant? Wouldn't others be tolerant? Otherwise, I will tell ...... this to me."

"You!" Qin Zhong was in a hurry and said, "You are not that kind of person!"

"Haha!" Wang Rong laughed loudly, and then patted the other party's hand, "You have worked hard all your life, and you live casually when you are old, don't care what others think. With the Emperor and the Emperor, who can let you be wronged?"

At this time, Qin Zhong's old wife, trembling and trembling, came in with a bowl of hot noodle soup and said with a smile, "Get in the car and get off the dumplings, you won't do anything?" The Holy One will eat some of it, and then I'll cut some sauce and meat for you!"

"Good work!" Wang Rong smiled and picked a chopstick noodle.

Qin Zhong looked at Wang Rong, who was eating noodles, and said, "Holy Lord, the old minister has something to ask you!"

"You say!" Wang Rong said vaguely.

Qin Zhong said with some twists, "The old minister has a few grandsons who are not successful

, you see, can you get that martial arts to learn things, give them a future!"

"How many descendants do you have in the Hou Mansion of Liyang, just send them!" Wang Rong said with a smile.

In the dead of night, the house of the Hou Mansion of Liyang.

Qin Zhong's eldest son, Qin Jing, said to his Lao Tzu carefully, "Dad, haven't you always kept our family members from mixing in the imperial court? How did you change your mind now?"

"No more than three generations of rich!" Qin Zhong fiddled with a few dice, and said without raising his head, "Teliang, if you don't take advantage of Lao Tzu's life, I will give you Zhang Luo, and when Lao Tzu dies, you are a fart?"

Qin Jing said with a puzzled expression, "But you, didn't you mean ......?"

"Lao Tzu said that we, as the remnants of the Yong Dynasty, were originally the royal family of the previous dynasty, and the position of this marquis, people can recognize my generation because you Lao Tzu and I are old and can't live for a few years, so we definitely can't pass it on to you. But now the saint is different!" Qin Jing turned the dice and continued, "People, they have always lived and died together, not with wealth and wealth. In the past, I followed them to mingle, waiting for others to unload the mill and kill the donkey! Now Lao Tzu is giving you Zhang Luo because of the wisdom and martial arts of the Holy One."

As he spoke, the old man put away the dice and said solemnly: "Back then, when your Lao Tzu joined the army, Emperor Yongming told me that in troubled times, martial artists should find a good master to be loyal and use swords and guns to win wealth and nobility! Now, Lao Tzu has found a good master for you who are not angry!"
