Twenty-eight years of Qin Shi Huang.

Just when the Qin army was in the north of Xinjiang.

The emperor of the empire is not in Xianyang.

Qin Shi Huang, the supreme ruler of the Great Qin Empire, was sitting in his splendid carriage, marching westward, inspecting his territory.

This time the western tour was actually planned for a long time, when Zhao Tuo, the former chief of the palace, proposed to build a gallop road to open up the imperial road network so that the emperor's decree could reach the counties in the sea.

Of the six galloping roads discussed by the secretaries of the DPRK and China, the first to start construction was the one in the west.

The purpose of building this western gallop road was not only to allow the empire to control the territory west of Xianyang more effectively, but also to facilitate the emperor's westward tour, so that it could be returned to the old capital of the Qin state, and the ancestral spirits were sacrificed in the place where the Qin people were first sealed.

This is something that the First Emperor has always wanted to do after he unified the world.

The Qin people have the saying that there are nine capitals and eight migrations.

Xianyang is the ninth capital of Qin, except for Jingyang in the north and Liyang in the east, the other six old capitals are all west of Xianyang.

"The widow with a blinking body, raising troops to punish the riot, the spirit of the Lai Zong Temple ......"

The First Emperor and the first emperor in the sea, built an unprecedented deed, in addition to thinking that it was his own merit, but also felt that it was the blessing of the spirits of the ancestors.

Just when Zhao Tuo broke through the three Yueshi and took all the land in Henan, the gallop road west of Xianyang happened to be completed, and the first emperor agreed to Zhao Tuo's strategy of attacking the Xiongnu in the north, and he was ready to start his western tour.

When you go out on a tour, the most important thing is the road condition.

The quality of the Chidao built by the Qin State is very exaggerated in any era.

Fifty paces wide.

Qin's step is six feet, which is converted into the weights and measures of later generations, that is, a full seventy meters wide!

Although it may be slightly reduced in some places depending on the topography of each place, it is definitely much larger than other roads of the same era.

On this road tens of meters wide, a green pine is planted every three zhang long, and its ground is compacted with golden vertebrae, making it difficult for people to pry. Through multi-layer ramming, the pavement of the entire road is higher than the original ground surface, and drainage ditches are dug on both sides of the road to ensure the firmness of the roadbed and facilitate drainage.

The roads built in this way can solve common traffic problems such as "heavy rain, impassable" and "mud up to the knees".

The First Emperor's western tour began, and a large team walked on the gallop road and went straight west. The Lang Wei who opened the way was strong and strong, and there were many spears and halberds. In the rear, the Yellow House is left, and the emperor travels by the Son of Heaven, showing his majesty.

The First Emperor first went to Pingyang, where Qin Xiangong and Qin Wugong lived, and after a short stay, he went north to the old capital Yongcheng.

Yongcheng is the capital city that has been used for the longest time in the history of Qin, starting from the migration of Qin Degong to Yongcheng, a total of 18 Qin Dukes have been ruled for 327 years, which shows how important Yongcheng has in Qin.

Even Qin Shi Huang, at the age of twenty-two, performed a crown ceremony in Yongcheng and officially assumed the authority of the Qin State.

"In April of that year, I performed a crown ceremony in Yongcheng, and the traitor Chang Yu took the opportunity to correct the imperial seal and the queen mother's seal, and sent county guards and guards, official horses, Rong Zhai Jungong, and sheren, wanting to attack the Qi Nian Palace for chaos!"

In Yongcheng Qinian Palace, the first emperor stood in front of the tall palace, pointed to the distant scene, and said in a deep voice.

The rebellion is a topic that he has deliberately avoided over the years.

Now that the old land is revisited, the emperor feels from his heart, and if he has been pressed in his heart for so many years, he can't bear it after all, and he said it to the people around him.

There was only one audience at the emperor's side.

"Father, that Chang Yu is really bad, he dares to make trouble, he should be arrested and cut in half, the car cracked, and chopped him into meat sauce! Whoever betrayed his father deserves to die! ”

Hu Hai raised his small fist and shouted loudly.

Fusu followed Meng Tian to build a straight road in the north, and the princes were not favored, so the first emperor toured the west and only brought his favorite young son Hu Hai.

The First Emperor lowered his head, looked at his youngest son's indignant look, and smiled.

"Yes, that's why I finally broke Chang Yu and razed his three clans, so that everyone in the world knows what it will be like to betray me!"

The First Emperor looked up again and looked at the huge square under the palace.

The smile on his face froze, and a cold light gradually appeared in his eyes.

The First Emperor still remembers that he was standing in this position back then.

On the square under the stage, there were Xiangbang Lu Buwei, Changping Jun, Chang Wenjun and others, and behind them were the majestic and brave Lang Wei Forbidden Army.

At that time, Qin Wangzheng, who had just been crowned, relied on the strength of these three people to successfully suppress Chang Yu's rebellion, successfully sit on the throne, and take charge of the country.

It's just that where are the three heroes who helped him put down the rebellion and control the Qin State?

Lü Buwei had an affair with the Queen Mother, and offered the Great Yin to the Queen Mother, which led to the subsequent Chang Yu rebellion, and Lü Buwei was actually the initiator of the whole thing.

In a sense, he actually betrayed the Qin Wangzheng, coupled with his growing power, and finally ended up drinking and dying.

As for Chang Wenjun and Chang Pingjun, they held a high position in the Qin State as the sons of the Chu State, but they were suspicious and betrayed the Qin Wangzheng, so naturally they did not end well.

The three heroes of the change in the palace did not end well.

"All traitors! Betrayed me! ”

The First Emperor secretly gritted his teeth.

In addition to these three people, the most difficult thing for him to accept was the betrayal of that woman.

"Even my own mother can betray me, who else in the world can't betray?"

The scene of Qi Nian Palace evoked his painful memories.

The First Emperor felt from his heart and sighed softly: "Hu Hai, you must know that there are no rebellious ministers in the world, and those who are kings cannot trust anyone. All of them...... are all possible betrayals! ”

Hu Hai blinked his eyes and said: "Father, but Hu Hai just wants to play, he doesn't want to be anyone, so he should tell his eldest brother about this." ”

The First Emperor was stunned, looked at the young man in front of him, and knew that he had aroused the emotions in his heart because of his revisit to his hometown, and he had a rare gaffe.

If it is an ambitious son who hears this, I am afraid that he will not have some crooked thoughts.

The First Emperor thought of Hu Hai's usual performance and knew that he was just a fun-loving teenager with a simple mind and no desire for power, so he put his mind at ease.

He let out a soft "um" and said no more.

Hu Hai's eyes rolled, he thought of a question, and asked with a sly face: "Father, you just said that there are no rebellious ministers in the world, and General Zhao Tuo, who is the most favored by my father, will have the heart of betrayal in the future?" ”

The First Emperor's eyes narrowed suddenly.

Zhao Tuo?

Will the man he loves and trust the most now betray him?

The First Emperor smiled, stood with his hands in his hands, looked at the palace complex in the distance, and said calmly: "I am now the Emperor of Great Qin, the lord of the world, and I am no longer the King of Qin in the past. As long as I am in one day, no one in the world will dare to rebel against me! ”

Footsteps could be heard from behind.

Zhao Gao came over, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Meng Zhonglang will ask to see you." ”

The First Emperor bowed his head and said, "Let Meng Yi come over." ”

Montessori came from the Qi State and was a general of the Qin State for two consecutive generations.

Meng Fu and Meng Wu are both loyal and good to Qin, and their style is upright, so the first emperor respects Mengshi very much, and naturally attaches great importance to the third generation of Mengshi.

He first ordered Meng Tian to be the general of Zhonglang, and then let Meng Tian follow Wang Jian to attack Chu, follow Zhao Tuo to destroy the dynasty and attack Qi, and now he is released to preside over the straight road project, which can be regarded as a one-man leader.

Meng Tian's younger brother, Meng Yi, is also an upright character, who has studied prison literature since he was a child, and once served as a reciter in the Tingwei Mansion, and is also a well-known official.

Previously, Zhao Gao was implicated in Fan Yi's matter, and Qin Shi Huang ordered Meng Yi to preside over the trial, and asked many times, with the intention of saving Zhao Gao's life. As a result, Meng Yi was upright, ignoring the implicit meaning of the first emperor, and wanted to follow the law of joint sitting to sentence Zhao Gao to death, and finally relied on Zhao Tuo to cite the example of King Qin Zhaoxiang pardoning Fan Ju to save Zhao Gao.

Although Meng Yi's approach did not conform to the first emperor's mind, his strict adherence to legal principles still made the first emperor admire him very much, and he thought that he was a virtuous minister, so he was very close.

In addition, Meng Yi was not only proficient in law, but also quite strategic, so the first emperor transferred him out of the court governor's mansion and promoted him to the rank of lieutenant general.

This time, the emperor toured the west, escorted by the Lang Guard, and Meng Yi was the leader of this army.

After a while, Meng Yi walked over.

After he finished his salute, he presented an urgent encrypted letter.

"Your Majesty, this is a military intelligence letter sent urgently from the Xianyang Taiwei Mansion."

The letter was sealed with ink, and no one knew what was written inside until it was opened.

The First Emperor took it and opened it with his own hands, and just by looking at it, a smile of joy bloomed on his face.

"Good!"

"Great goodness!"

"The general broke the Xiongnu in northern Xinjiang, killed the Xiongnu Shan Yu south of Yinshan, and seized all its land."

The First Emperor laughed, shook the letter in his hand and said: "Gaoque, Yangshan and other places occupied by the Zhao people in the past have been taken back from the hands of the Hu people by the general. My Great Qin has completely possessed all the Zhuxia homelands! ”

Hearing this good news, Meng Yi, Zhao Gao and others present hurriedly opened their mouths to congratulate.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, the general defeated the Huns and recovered his homeland, then no one in the world will dare to be an enemy of my Great Qin!"

Even Hu Hai clapped his hands and said, "Congratulations to my father, General Zhao is really amazing!" ”

The First Emperor smiled from ear to ear, nodded and said, "Zhao Tuo, this kid, the biggest advantage is that he has never disappointed me. ”

As he spoke, his gaze fell on Meng Yi and encouraged: "You have been a leader of the Mengshi clan for generations, and now Brother Meng Tian has also fought in the Three Kingdoms and has some prestige. If there is another expedition, I should send you there, and in the future, I can be like a general, and make contributions on the battlefield. ”

"Your Majesty's orders."

Meng Yi agreed, thought about it, and said: "Now that the general has defeated the Xiongnu, it will not be long before the good news of General Feng and the two General Li comes, and then the Quartet Huyi will surrender, and the ministers may not have a chance to fight." In the future, it is the wish of the minister to be able to follow His Majesty's side. ”

Meng Yi's words made the First Emperor smile even more happily.

On the side, Zhao raised his head, his face was very stiff, and his eyes were full of coldness.

Meng Yi, the man who once almost killed him.

Now it has once again brought a huge threat to Zhao Gao.

Meng Yi had served in the Imperial Governor's Mansion and was proficient in the law, serving as a Zhonglang general to serve the emperor's side, and his functions began to overlap with that of Zhao Gao.

And compared with Zhao Gao, a person from a humble background, Meng Yi is a generation of generals, with a noble bloodline and a good name, no matter how you look at it, he is more competitive than him Zhao Gao.

What's more, although Meng Yi is known as a straight guy and is very principled, he is not a completely rigid person.

"Meng Yi!"

Zhao Gao roared in his heart.

The First Emperor didn't care about the careful thinking of his cronies, and after praising Zhao Tuo's exploits, the First Emperor asked Meng Yi to announce the news so that he could boast about Great Qin's martial arts.

After Meng Yi left and Zhao Gao walked into the distance to continue to stand, the eyes of the First Emperor fell on Hu Hai again.

Thinking of the appearance of this kid just now who just wanted to have fun and didn't even care about being a human king, although the First Emperor liked Hu Hai's simplicity, he was still a little dissatisfied in his heart.

After all, Great Qin ruled the country by law, and the princes and grandsons were not allowed to be knighted without merit.

"Hu Hai, you are also twelve years old, it's time to learn the law, I want you to learn the law with Meng Yi."

The First Emperor touched Hu Hai's head.

Hu Hai's eyes widened.

Learn the Fa with Meng Yi?

On the way to the west, he heard that although Meng Zhonglang spoke softly on weekdays, he would even pat the emperor's ass. But in doing things, they are particularly principled and very strict, and such people are not easy to get along with.

If he went to be a student for Meng Yi, then he would be miserable.

Hu Hai's head shook like a rattle, hugged the arm of the first emperor, and said coquettishly: "Father, I don't want to learn the law from General Meng Zhonglang, otherwise give me another person." ”

The First Emperor frowned.

This kid still dares to pick people?

If it was replaced by other sons, he would have been reprimanded with a straight face, even if it was Fusu, he must have scolded him sharply.

But the coquettish person in front of him is his favorite young son Hu Hai.

Seeing Hu Hai's innocent face, holding his arm and begging for help, the First Emperor's heart softened.

He ate Hu Hai's set.

He said lightly: "Who do you want to be replaced?" ”

Hu Hai wrinkled his nose, and just happened to see Zhao Gao, the commander of the CRRC Mansion standing in the distance.

Zhao Gao felt Hu Hai's gaze and smiled at him from afar.

Hu Hai thought that every time he saw Zhao Gao, Zhao Gao would be very respectful to him, and he couldn't help but be moved.

He said: "Father, how about letting me learn the law with the order of the CRRC government?" I heard that the CRRC government order is also a law master, and he also writes a good hand, you let me learn from him. ”

"Zhao Gao?"

The First Emperor was stunned, and glanced back at Zhao Gao, who was standing respectfully, thoughtfully.

"Do you want to learn the Fa with Zhao Gao, are you afraid of Meng Yi?"

Hu Hai grinned and said: "Father is wise, Meng Zhonglang will look too strict, I think it's better to order the CRRC government, anyway, they are all studying the law, it must be better to find one that looks comfortable." ”

The First Emperor smiled and shook his head, he was really a little helpless about his little son who liked to be comfortable.

But after thinking about it, only such a simple son has no desire for power, let alone does anything that endangers the throne.

The First Emperor recalled that he had betrayed his younger brother Cheng Chan, the person who made him feel that family affection was inferior to power again, and suddenly felt that Hu Hai's character was also very good.

"In that case, you can learn the law with Zhao Gao."

The First Emperor spoke lightly and agreed to Hu Hai's request.

"Yay, my father is wise!"

The young man Hu Hai shouted happily.

The First Emperor shook his head and settled Hu Hai's matter, and he remembered what Meng Yi had just said.

In addition to Zhao Tuo's attack on the Xiongnu in the north, he also had three other generals, who were leading the Qin army to fight against the Donghu, Yue, and Southwest Yi.

"The general has passed on the good news, I don't know what kind of surprise these generals will bring to me!"

After returning to Xianyang, I will be named Marquis of Lun, do you have any recommendations for the name of the marquis?

In addition, today's update, the plot after returning to Xianyang has not been straightened out, you have to think about it, and it will be made up later.

"Historical Records: The Biography of Meng Tian": The first emperor respected and favored Mengshi and trusted the virtuous. And close to Meng Yi, the position of the supreme secretary, out of the ride, into the royal front. Tian is responsible for foreign affairs and perseverance, and often seeks internal affairs.
