Chapter 337: Meng Jiangnu cried on the Great Wall

"In the late Warring States period, the county system began to prevail, and Qin Shi Huang completely established the county system."

"Qin Shi Huang divided the country into 36 counties, and set up counties below the county, and each place sent officials to administer it."

"If the management is not good, the official will be dismissed, and when he retires, he will go home to support the elderly, and a new one will be assigned, and the central government will firmly control the locality, which is centralized power!"

"Qin Shi Huang was an all-rounder, and after unifying the political system, the backhand was a series of operations to unify the country's currency, weights and measures, writing, etc., and realize the unification of the economic system and ideology and culture."

"During the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the writing of various countries was different, which was troublesome."

"Just imagine, if the text is not unified, Qin Shi Huang wants to issue a decree, and he has to translate it into several languages, and the Chu people can't write a contract Yan people can't understand it, and the transaction can't be done, in short, all kinds of inconveniences."

Based on this, Qin Shi Huang asked Li Si to organize a set of national scripts.

"Li Si is still very capable, the Qin script is the mainstay, supplemented by the other six languages, absorbing the strengths of others, and creating a set of Qin seals."

"Li Si became more and more courageous, bought one and got one free, and created a more simplified font based on Qin Seal."

"In the Qin Dynasty, Qin seals were used to write official documents, and official scripts were used in daily life."

"I don't know if the students at that time complained about Li Si when they were learning the two fonts."

"During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the road construction standards of various countries were different, and the carriages were also uneven in size and size."

"The Chu people bought a new car and could only go around in Chudi, and the tracks in other parts of Chudi were not as wide as they were driving out, and they broke down in minutes."

"This can't be done, if you want to get rich, build roads first, Qin Shi Huang issued an order, with Xianyang as the center radiating several 6-foot rails to all parts of the country, and at the same time stipulated that the distance between the two wheels of the carriage should be changed to 6 feet."

"Since then, the traffic in the Qin Dynasty has been smooth and smooth, and all roads lead to Xianyang."

"During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the currency, length unit, weight unit, etc. were all different."

"The Chu people asked the Yan people to buy five catties of beef, and when the Yan people paid the money, they didn't say that he didn't know the money and didn't accept it."

"It's good to say that the transaction was successful, and when I went home, I said that there were only four catties and two, and the black-hearted businessman was short of two, and I went back to the theory, and the Yan people said that they were very wronged."

"The patriarch Qin Shi Huang roared, don't make any noise, in the future, the same kind of money will be used uniformly, gold is the upper currency, copper money is the lower currency, round square holes, half two one, length, weight, volume, etc. are all based on the original Qin State."

"In this way, everyone can buy and buy happily again!"

"Feng Chan Taishan, Qin Shi Huang toured large and small mountains and rivers, the most famous, the most far-reaching is Mount Tai Feng Chan."

"In 219 B.C., Qin Shi Huang held a ceremony to seal Mount Tai."

"Since Qin Shi Huang, the country's successive emperors have been keen to hold chan sealing ceremonies to emphasize the majesty and mystery of monarchy."

"After talking about politics, let's talk about the military."

"When Yingzheng was only the king of Qin, his skills in grabbing territory were very good, and after dominating the world, he was even more handy and perfect."

"In ancient times, the Yue people lived in the south of South China, all over Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangxi, and south to Guangdong and Guangxi, with many tribes, collectively referred to as Baiyue."

"In the pre-Qin era, the land of Baiyue was all quiet and good to live their own small lives, even if the Central Plains were made into a pot of porridge, it had nothing to do with them."

"After Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, there was nowhere to release the skills of grabbing territory, so in 218 BC he sent an army of 500,000 all the way to the south, fought hard for 4 years, and finally drew the southern region to his own territory."

"Nanzheng Baiyue also has an ancillary product, Lingqu."

"At that time, in order to transport military grain and grass to the south, Qin Shi Huang built a spiritual canal to open up the Xiangjiang River and the Pearl River."

"The construction of the Ling Canal has made a qualitative leap in the transportation of the Central Plains and the southern region."

"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty conquered the Xiongnu, and Qin Shi Huang was not."

"As early as the Warring States Period, the Xiongnu took advantage of the chaos to test and encroach on the Central Plains, and Qin Shi Huang had long looked at him unpleasantly."

"In 214 BC, Qin Shi Huang finally freed his hands to clean up the Xiongnu, and under an order, the general Meng Tian led an army of 300,000 to drive the Xiongnu back to the desert to drink the northwest wind."

"The Northern Attack on the Xiongnu also has ancillary products, the Great Wall."

"In order to consolidate the results of the war, Meng Tian repaired and connected the Great Wall of the former Yan State, Zhao State and Qin State, creating the mighty and majestic Great Wall of Qin."

"The Great Wall of Qin is a miracle in the architectural world and the pride of the Chinese nation."

"In later generations, the Great Wall was a great achievement, but for the ancients at that time, it was the work of a tyrant."

"Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of the ages, was wise and martial, and made a lot of great achievements, but no one is perfect, and Qin Shi Huang's fierce life also has stains that cannot be washed white, first of all, it is to build the Great Wall and squeeze the people."

"In today's advanced technology, it is not easy to build this long-awaited project."

"Not to mention two thousand years ago, behind the Great Wall, there are countless jobs, day and night, many people died, even if people returned home alive, physical problems, they had no money to treat, for the people, the Great Wall is a disaster."

"There is a story about the Great Wall - Meng Jiangnu cries about the Great Wall."

"It's just an ironic story."

"Legend has it that after Qin Shi Huang ascended the throne, in order to prevent the invasion of the northern Hun slaves, he decided to levy 800,000 migrant workers to build a Great Wall."

"The government arrested people everywhere to work as migrant workers, and the people who were arrested built the Great Wall day and night, and I don't know how many died of exhaustion."

"There was a rumor that in order to make the Great Wall strong forever, it had to be filled with living people."

"One mile has to be filled with one person, and ten thousand miles have to be filled with 10,000 people."

"Later, there was a nursery rhyme, saying that there is a Wan Xiliang in Suzhou, and he alone can make the Great Wall forever."

"In order to make his Great Wall forever impregnable and block the attack of Hun Yinu alone, Qin Shi Huang sent officials to Suzhou to arrest Wan Xiliang."

Wan Xiliang was so frightened that he quickly fled from Suzhou and hid everywhere.

"One day, he inadvertently hid in the back garden of a family surnamed Meng and met Meng Jiangnu."

Meng Jiangnu saw that he was pitiful, so she took him in.

"Wan Xi conscience is knowledgeable, he is a kind gentleman, Meng Jiangnu and he have been in love for a long time, and then the Meng family's parents are in charge, and the two become husband and wife."

"Unfortunately, less than three days after the wedding, Wan Xiliang was arrested by the official mission."

"Meng Jiangnu washed her face with tears all day long, hoping that her husband would come home as soon as possible."

"Half a year has passed in a blink of an eye, the north wind is blowing, the reeds are white, and it is late autumn."

"Meng Jiangnu thought that her husband must be very cold when he was building the Great Wall outside the Guan, and she was worried that he would be sick, so she set off alone and personally gave the winter clothes that had been made long ago to her husband thousands of miles away."
