Shu Ange cleaned up Zhao Qian this time, let the other party have a bitter word, and did not find fault with him again after being proud.

One is an accident, and if there are more, it will become a calculation, Qin Guo is in an eventful season, and she has to take care of the overall situation.

Spring went to autumn, and Zhao took Li Mu as the general and conquered Wusui, Fangcheng and other places in Yan State. Shu Ange sympathized with Yan Guo, but he was just sympathetic.

The war between Zhao and Yan came to an end temporarily, and Prince Zhao couldn't wait to leave Xianyang and return to Zhao, and Qin's proton in Zhao also returned to Xianyang.

In October, the locust plague broke out on a large scale, although the Qin State had long been prepared, and Shu Ange had also formulated many plans to exterminate the locusts in advance, but in this era, it was very possible to cut off from the source, and it was still very terrible when the locusts were overflowing.

However, they were not useless, after the outbreak of locusts, the county guards and county commanders organized the people to exterminate the locusts together, and the locusts burned by fire were used to feed chickens, ducks and other poultry.

The damage caused by the locust plague was much lighter than in history, because the imperial court prepared to get it, opened warehouses and released grain in time, and organized the affected people in various places to deal with the dead in time, so that no plague occurred.

In order to enrich the granary and provide disaster relief in a timely manner, the Qin State issued a new decree, and the people could worship the first level as long as they received a thousand stones.

The Qin State was very strict about the awarding of titles, and in the past, titles could only be given by military merits.

As soon as the new decree was issued, many merchants worked hard to donate the surplus grain hidden in their homes just to get a knighthood.

Converted into modern units, 1,000 stone grain is more than 20 tons of grain.

Relying on a commendation, in exchange for more than 20 tons of grain, to save the people, Shu Ange thinks it is still very worthwhile.

Under the active relief of the imperial court, the impact of the locust plague slowly faded, and at this time, a big news suddenly came from the Wei State that shook the six countries.

Wei Wuji, the Xinling Jun of the Wei State, passed away, and the Xinling Jun, as one of the four princes of the Warring States, was of great significance to the Wei State.

At the beginning, the Qin State attacked the Wei State, if it weren't for the Xinling Jun and the Five Kingdoms to attack the Qin State together, the Wei State would have been defeated long ago.

When Wei Wuji was an adult, the Wei State went from prosperity to decline, and he followed the example of Meng Weijun and Pingyuan Jun to recruit customers, and there were countless people under him.

Because of his loyalty and courage, he was very prestigious in the vassal states, and the famous deeds of encircling Wei and saving Zhao in history were also from his hand.

Xin Lingjun is very good at both humanities and martial arts, but it is a pity that his half-brother King Wei has repeatedly suspected him, so Xin Lingjun died of injury after relieving the siege of Wei.

The death of Xinling Jun is not good news for the other six countries.

At the beginning, there was Xinling Jun, and in the face of the strong Qin, Wei and several other countries still had the courage to join forces to resist. Now that Xinlingjun is dead, the morale of the Wei State has fallen too much.

This was excellent news for the Qin state, and the king of Qin sent the general Meng Fu to lead his troops to attack the Wei state.

In Shu Ange's words, this is taking advantage of his illness to kill him.

In the four years of the reign of King Qin, he spent in various disasters and famines, and in the fifth year of the reign of King Qin, the situation of the Qin State finally improved.

In a blink of an eye, Yingzheng was eighteen years old, and Gongzi Cheng was over fifteen years old.

Empress Dowager Xia was worried about the title of Gongzi Cheng, mobilized all kinds of contacts, and used means to persuade Korea to give up 100 miles of land to Qin.

Of course, Empress Dowager Xia's move was not purely for the Qin State to expand its territory, but to allow Cheng Chan to establish military merits.

Ying Zheng didn't have much of an opinion on this, although he didn't like Cheng Chan very much, but he didn't mind the expansion of Qin's territory.

Cheng Chan's trip to South Korea was counted as a round-trip trip, and it was originally a few months. But King Han kept him as a guest in South Korea and stayed longer.

In the first two years of the Qin Dynasty, there were many disasters, and under the prayers of the people, the clan and the ministers, Ying Zheng decided to hold a sacrifice on the bank of the Weishui River to pray for good weather and peace for the country and the people.

For Shu Ange, who used to be the empress, the sacrificial ceremony is no stranger.

But attending as a supporting role and witnessing the famous Qin Shi Huang holding a sacrificial ceremony is a very exciting thing for her.

To hold a sacrificial ceremony, it is necessary to choose an auspicious day of the zodiac, and to prepare the three animals for the sacrifice in advance, as well as other sacrifices and wine.

Before the formal sacrifice, Ying Zheng had to burn incense, bathe and change clothes in advance, at this time Buddhism had not yet spread, and fasting could be omitted.

The King of Qin personally came to Weishui to preside over the sacrifice, and the first thing was the safety issue.

This is just like in modern times, when the main leaders of various countries attend, the security alert must be mentioned to the 3S level, otherwise if one is not careful, the heads of state will have an accident, which will rise to the level of international conflict.

This is still in modern times, even if the head of state suddenly has an accident, thanks to a strong state system, the normal life of the people can still be carried out stably.

In ancient times, if the king died suddenly, without the premise of determining the heir, it was very likely to cause turmoil and war.

Therefore, the safety of King Qin is very important.

As the leader in charge of the palace guards, Lieutenant Lang, Shu Ange worked with the guard captain Wang Jian and the lieutenant military captain Yang Lian a month ago to arrange the guards during the sacrifice.

On the day of the sacrifice, Shu Ange handed over her guards to Wang Jian as the commander, and she herself changed into the clothes of the sorcerer, put on the bronze beast mask, and prepared to dance during the sacrifice.

The larger the scale of the sacrifice, the larger the scale of the dance, the more complex it is, and it is said that the dance can communicate with ghosts and gods, and drive away evil spirits and plagues.

The rolling turbidity of Weishui is crowded with people, and the people are not allowed to go forward, but can only watch from afar on the mountain and downstream.

On the outermost side are 2,000 elite armor soldiers from the Xianyang Garrison, all of whom are tall and not angry and arrogant.

Inside, there are local parent officials and some middle- and lower-level officials in Weishui, and everyone is wearing a new official uniform.

More inward, in order, are hundreds of palace guards, the dignitaries of the Qin State, the palace e, and then the envoys of various countries, and today's protagonist - Qin Wangzheng.

Ying Zheng's expression was solemn, his body was solemn, and his hands were arched. The thousands of people surrounding him did not dare to make a sound, as if it was a silent forest.

A light breeze quietly brought a little coolness to everyone under the scorching sun.

At this time, a slow and powerful male voice came: "The auspicious time has come, Qing Shui is in charge!"

The person who shouted was Feng Chang Yunmu, who was usually in charge of the temple sacrifices and various ceremonies of the Qin State.

A palace man dressed in a gorgeous costume walked over with a painted gold agate basin in his hand, and knelt down on his knees in front of Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng reached into the basin, and after cleaning it for a while, the agate basin was withdrawn.

The palace man next to him immediately bent his knees forward, and quickly and carefully wiped his hands that had just been washed with a cloth.

After washing, the sound of Fengchang sounded again, and the time for incense had come.

Shu Ange pretended to be a sorcerer and offered the incense in his hand. After Yingzheng took over, General Mengwu stepped forward to light it, and after inserting his hands into the furnace, he looked up at the subjects under the altar.

The sound of bells and drums sounded, and the three animals carefully selected, melons, fruits, wines, and gold, silver and jewelry, were all thrown into the Weishui, and after a spin, they sank to the bottom of the water.

The sacrifice sank to the bottom of the water, representing that the gods had accepted the offering, and the subjects on both sides of the strait looked excitedly at the King of Qin in a gorgeous dress.

On the altar, Ying Zheng chanted a prayer in a deep voice.

The sorcerers danced with all kinds of sacrificial utensils in their hands, and the Shu'an singer held a string of bronze bells, with red strings and smaller bells tied to her ankles, and her snow-jade wrist shook slightly, and the bells made a heart-warming jingle sound.

When the sorcerer danced, he didn't dare to get too close to King Qin, only Shu Ange was alone, spinning and flying, light as a goddess flying in the sky, dancing wildly in a position very close to Yingzheng.

Before the dance, Shu Ange only talked to Wang Jian and Yang Lian, who were in charge of the guards, and did not tell Yingzheng.

When she personally sent incense forward, Ying Zheng's gaze fell on her for a moment, and Shu Ange didn't know if he recognized her.

The dance is a very important part of the sacrificial ceremony, Shu Ange danced around Yingzheng attentively, he recited the prayer unhurriedly, and the audience already had tears of tears.

This kind of ancient ritual is the easiest to evoke the fragility and emotion hidden in people's hearts.

King Qin is not very old, and his ability to control the overall situation is very good, this is not the first time he has presided over a sacrifice, but it is the largest sacrifice in recent years.

The bells rang out, the drums were ethereal, and only the voice of Yingzheng resounded between heaven and earth.

This strange situation is not only because the altar is set up with a very strong surround sound effect, but also because Shu Ange quietly moved his hands and feet.

Her man presided over the sacrifice, and she, a little goblin, couldn't help her, how could she be worthy of Yingzheng's preferential treatment of her.

The turbid yellow water suddenly fluctuated, and dark clouds gradually gathered in the sky under the scorching sun.

Suddenly, a black antler-shaped object appeared on the surface of the water, and then moved rapidly in a rowing pattern.

The crowd who looked down and peeked forward at the same time would have almost erupted into an exclamation if it weren't for the polite request to silence.

After a few moments, the antler-like object disappeared and the water surface returned to calm.

While everyone wondered what it was, they thought to themselves that the worship had been carried out to such a complete extent.

You don't see, more than ten generations of kings of all countries in the world have sacrificed the real dragon many times, but they have never seen a single dragon scale. Occasionally, when they saw a few big fish, they began to say that the real dragon had appeared, and now they have indeed seen the legendary dragon horns.

Just as everyone was looking down and thinking wildly, a terrifying "bang" suddenly erupted from the water in front of them, so loud that it seemed that someone had blown the riverbed from below.

Ying Zheng looked around, and a giant dragon about twenty feet long, with black scales all over its body, and a deer antler, eagle claw, and snake body, was staring at him.

Is this the legendary Black Dragon?

Ying Zheng had no fear in his heart, and quietly looked at the black dragon across the Weishui.

Thou art a true dragon, and the widow is also a true dragon, so why be afraid!

Heaven and earth seemed to fall silent at the same time in an instant, only the rolling thunder was deafening, and the subjects present all widened their eyes and opened their mouths wide, looking in astonishment.

The sorcerers stopped dancing and knelt on the ground one after another, their eyes showing piousness, and only Shu Ange and Yingzheng were still standing on the altar.

(Meow, dragon~~ Do you know, Qin Shi Huang also has an alias called Zulong, very cool)
