If it is changed to a discussion of military situation, Ying Xiaozheng can still talk on paper, and Li Si and Han Fei can only pretend to be dumb on the side.

When Li Mu sent troops again, Zhu Xiang considered letting Meng Tian follow Li Mu to polish his military talents.

It's dangerous just to go to the battlefield, and I don't know if Meng Wushe is reluctant.

Zhu Xiang was thinking about this matter, but he didn't expect Meng Tian's opportunity to come soon.

The state of Chu is finally in chaos.

The beginning of the chaos in the Chu State was after Zichu returned to Xianyang.

King Qin has investigated the assassination of the crown prince Chu for a long time, and now it is finally announced, "It was the people of Chu who did it!" ”。

The King of Qin sent Wang Jian to the west of the Chu State, on the bank of the Han River, and decided to attack the Chu State with all his might.

Slowly fighting South Korea, now only half of South Korea has been swallowed, and Lian Po, who has just bordered Chu State, has also been ordered to station at the junction of South Korea and Chu State, preparing to attack Chu State together with Wang Qian.

At this time, the king of Qin fell ill because he was too angry, the offensive of the Qin army gradually slowed down, and the crown prince Chu was in charge of the country.

Although the Qin army did not attack, the crown prince Chu ordered that all exchanges between the Qin and Chu people be banned. If a Qin merchant did business with a Chu person, it was regarded as treason.

After this order appeared, the people who were doing business in the State of Chu in the State of Qin immediately retreated as if they had heard the news a long time ago, and the prosperous market of the State of Chu instantly became very desolate.

Before the people of Chu could react, so many merchants in Qin suddenly left Qin and didn't even want to rent houses and shops.

They also had a large amount of cotton in their hands and hoarded a large amount of cotton cloth. But these things are all scrap and can no longer be purchased.

They tried to go to the other five countries to buy things with cotton cloth, but two years later, other countries have begun to be wary of the overflow of cotton cloth, and even if someone is willing to exchange things for cotton cloth, the value of cotton cloth has plummeted.

The nobles of the Chu State are okay, they have accumulated a lot of wealth and grain during this period, so it doesn't matter if the cotton and cotton cloth are worthless.

Cotton is also cloth, it is an asset, and they feel that they have not lost much.

But the state of Chu was miserable.

In the enclosure movement, the number of yeoman farmers was greatly reduced, and the taxes of the Chu State were greatly reduced, and there was not much grain hoarded in the granary.

Originally, they could still use cotton cloth to buy grain, but now all countries refuse to accept cotton cloth in exchange for grain, and Chu is short of food.

On one side, there are so many in the granary of the Fengjun of Chu that they are about to overflow; On the one hand, everyone around the King of Chu was shouting about the lack of food; Then there was a place where those who could speak could not see, and there was a famine among the civilians of the Chu State.

This famine should never have happened.

Chu State does not say that the wind and rain are smooth, and there are no major natural disasters. If they farm normally, how can they not starve to death?

However, the nobles of Chu State encircled too much land, and they could only devote themselves to the industrial chain of cotton planting, textile and sales, or as tenant farmers for the nobles, or as small laborers for merchants.

Because they were paid with cotton cloth, they could have gone on with their lives. When the cotton cloth of the Qin State lost its purchasing power, their lives were miserable.

They used to get cotton cloth, and they used to exchange the rest for grain. The food is enough to eat, but it is impossible to stay in Tun for a few months, and it is good to be able to stay in Tun for ten days.

Now there are no jobs, cotton cloth has no value, they can't buy food.

"The grain output of the Chu State has not actually decreased much. The nobles of the Chu State had enough food to eat, and their guests and families stored more grain. Why hasn't the grain decreased much, but the price of grain in Chu has soared more than ten times? After Zhu Xiang took out the statistical data, he assigned papers to Ying Xiaozheng and the students.

Ying Xiaozheng looked at the paper arranged by Zhu Xiang and remembered the memory of another self he saw in his dream.

Another one has experienced this myself.

At that time, after the other self unified the world, he thought about recuperation.

However, the world has been decided, and it stands to reason that there are more people who farm the land and the grain output is higher, but the price of grain among the people has skyrocketed several times compared with that during the war, causing anger and resentment.

Why is that?

The other one I can't figure it out, and I still can't figure it out.

Ying Xiaozheng originally wanted to ask his uncle.

Uncle must know the answer, Ying Xiaozheng is sure of this.

But he didn't end up asking his uncle.

It's not that Ying Xiaozheng can't trust Zhu Xiang, and he is worried that Zhu Xiang will see his secret. It's that he has a sense of victory and defeat, and he wants to figure it out for himself.

You can't rely on your uncle for everything, right? He's so old that he should have thought for himself.

Now Zhu Xiang's homework is exactly the same as the problem that has been bothering him, and Ying Xiaozheng has worked hard to pull the team members to solve this problem independently and win the first place.

Zhu Xiang saw Ying Xiaozheng's fighting spirit, so he had to pick up the government affairs that Ying Xiaozheng had left because of his fighting spirit.

Ying Xiaozheng has to study hard now, and Zhu Xiang can only be a county guard, not run around.

Li Mu heard Zhu Xiang complaining, and said helplessly: "This is what you should do. Zheng'er has helped you so much, why do you still think it's Zheng'er's business? ”

Zhu Xiang said: "What are you talking about? Look at the edict of the king, this is originally the work of Zheng'er. ”

Li Mu rolled his eyes.

That King Qin and this Zhu Xiang are very problematic, how can they keep the young Zheng'er busy? Even if Zheng'er becomes the king of Qin at this age, there is also a doctor to assist the government, and the queen mother listens to the government, which is Zheng'er alone?

Here in Zhu Xiang, Zheng'er is in charge of the house at the age of five or six.

Li Mu didn't know if other people were envious or speechless when they found out. He was speechless anyway, empathetic, he didn't want to take on such a big responsibility when he was five or six years old.

When Zhu Xiang was assigning his homework, Zichu was waiting for Qin Wangzhu to drink medicine in Xianyang Palace.

Qin Wangzhu survived a serious illness.

When he called Bai Qi and Fan Ju back to Xianyang, he survived and lived for nearly a year.

But after that, he was much weaker.

At this time, he was seriously ill again, and although he woke up immediately and seemed to be getting better, he still called Zichu back.

The illness is like a thread, this time he lingered on the sickbed, his energy was low, and most of the things were handed over to Zichu.

However, the Qin State's "declaration of war" against the Chu State was personally commanded by him, and Zichu only carried it out.

Whether it was sending troops or standing still for the time being, it was Qin Wangzhu himself who was thinking about it from his hospital bed.

The Qin State did not move because Qin Wangzhu was ill, this was originally his plan. This time against the state of Chu, Qin Wangzhu was not ready to attack with a large army.

He knew that the state of Chu was still very strong and its territory was very broad. A rash attack now will only give the other five countries a chance.

Although Qin Wangzhu was anxious, he had endured it for so many years and handled things very safely.

When he succeeded to the throne, he knew that he would not be the king of Qin for many years. He can't be in a hurry, he can't be in a hurry in order to build up merit, leave a mess for Zichu, and slow down the progress of Qin's domination of the world.

"Zichu, I'm so jealous of you. Why are you so young? When Qin Wangzhu listened to Zi Chu's report that everything was going well and that the Chu country was in chaos, he was not happy, but sighed.

Zi Chu, who was kneeling on the edge of the bed, hung his head and did not answer.

Qin Wangzhu said to himself: "Now that the Chu State is in chaos, at most in another five years, the Chu State will be able to fall into the hands of the Qin State." When the state of Chu is destroyed, it is only a matter of time before the other five countries are bulldozed. I have seen the light of day, the road is at my feet, just go forward. But I don't have time to go down, I don't have time. ”

Qin Wangzhu lamented for a long time, then waved his hand and said, "Go out, let the widow be quiet for a while." ”

Before Zichu got up, he hesitated for a while and asked, "Do you want Zhu Xiang and Zheng'er to come back?" ”

Qin Wangzhu said: "The affairs of Chu depend on Zhu Xiang. ”

Zi Chu said: "The affairs of Chu have been launched, with Lin Li and Li Mu here, Zhu Xiang can leave Southern Qin." ”

He paused, hid what he was going to say, and replaced it with something in his heart: "Father, if Zhu Xiang can't see you for the last time, he will definitely be sad, and Father will be sad." Compared with the heirs of our fathers, Zhu Xiang is the only one who treats his father wholeheartedly and does not contain any interests in his feelings. ”

Qin Wangzhu's gaze became cold.

Zi Chu committed two taboos when he said this.

First, although Qin Wangzhu fell ill, the imperial doctor had not yet said that he would die, and Qin Wangzhu did not want to hear that he would die; First, Zi Chu bluntly said that Qin Wangzhu's heirs were not pure to this monarch's father, including himself.

Qin Wangzhu stared at Zi Chu coldly for a while, but he didn't reprimand Zi Chu, and his frozen gaze gradually softened.

"You can actually say such things at the most critical moment when you are about to become the king of Qin." Qin Wangzhu said calmly, "The widow still thinks that you will be a filial son before I die." ”

Zichu said: "Father, I have always been a filial son. ”

"You say yes, that's it." Qin Wangzhu said lightly, "Let Zhu Xiang come back, I really miss him." ”

Zi Chu bowed his head and retreated: "Yes." ”

King Qin Zhu watched Zi Chu leave. After Zichu's back disappeared for a long time, he sighed faintly.

"He and I are now truly father and son."

Qin Wangzhu laughed at himself, and then sighed again.

He looked up at the bed curtain, his dry hands falling on his eyelids, muttering to himself.

"Jealous, jealous."

The road is at your feet, the end is at hand, and everything that the Qin kings have pursued is within reach.

It was almost like that, but he couldn't get through.

I'm so jealous of future generations.

Chapter 153: Tears on the shoulders of husband and wife

When Qin Wangzhu's edict was sent to Southern Qin, Zhu Xiang greeted the first batch of civilians who had fled from Chu to Southern Qin.

The leader of those civilians is like Lin Yi with a white cloth wrapped around his head.

Lin Zhen's head was wrapped in a white cloth, implying that the state of Chu was dead.

Zhu Xiang was speechless. Fortunately, Lin Gong has already made an ancient appearance, otherwise Lin Zhen's legs will be discounted.

How can anyone have nothing to do with wrapping a white cloth around their heads at will? How unlucky?

Lin Zhen pretended to be a Chu person, and Zhu Xiang was stunned for a long time when he heard the elegant words of the Chu State accent.

Zhu Xiang's stunned was "understood" by Lin Zhen as distressed Chu Min. He knelt on the ground and hugged Zhu Xiang's leg and cried, saying that the king of Chu and the ministers and doctors of Chu didn't care about the lives of civilians, and the state of Chu was going to die, and begged Zhu Xianggong to save the Chu people.

Only Zhu Xianggong would treat civilians as human beings, he could only take the risk of taking the Chu people south and begging Zhu Xianggong for help!

Zhu Xiang: "...... If you have something to say, it's good to say. "Don't rub your nose on my clothes, don't think I don't know you mean it!

The rangers who followed Lin Zhen to escort the people of Chu to Southern Qin, watching Lin Zhen wipe his nose and tears on Zhu Xiang's clothes, Zhu Xianggong only mourned for the civilians of Chu in silence, and did not kick this dirty person away.

They had seen many nobles, and none of them were as tolerant of commoners as Zhu Xianggong.

"Zhu Xianggong, please save the Chu people!"
