Chapter 134

It snowed all night, and in the early morning of the second day, the entire Xianyang City looked as far as the eye could see, the palaces, private houses, inside and outside the city, were all white.

On the streets, people from Qin were sweeping snow, wielding brooms and wooden shovels everywhere.

Judging by their attire, they are neither prisoners nor officials in the government.

If people encountered such a situation half a year ago, they must have scolded the female cultivators first, because there is a high probability that this is the corvee issued by the imperial court.

But now these people who are sweeping the snow are all beaming. Although their faces are flushed with cold, they are full of energy.

If you take a closer look, you will find that they are not Guishou with black cloths on their heads, but noble households with military exploits.

Of course, most of them are officials wearing brown scarves.

This stems from the edict issued overnight by Fusu to select a certain number of males from various gatherings in Xianyang, and go to the streets to sweep the snow after the snow stops.

The point is not to do it in vain, each person is paid [-] yuan a day.

Priority is given to selection from Juehu of Shiwu nationality.

As far as Fusu is concerned, it is better to simply win over these military meritorious people because he has to throw money in exchange for support in the polls.

After all, even if it is just a low-level family of officials, after the call-up order is issued, one or two Qin soldiers who have been trained in the army can still be produced!

It was these people who were the main force behind Qin's annexation of the Six Kingdoms more than ten years ago.

In Fusu's view, the worst plan is to let these people go out again!
When the snow removal order was issued, the old Qin people were very happy.

Although the State of Qin forbids praise, everyone knows that in His Majesty's heart, they, the old Qin heroes, always have a place!
Although according to the Qin law, the engineering quantity is extremely high, and there is basically no possibility for everyone to be lazy.

But just like that, when the work is over, the money will be sent to them exactly.

Fifteen dollars may not seem like much, but it can buy a catty of pork, or two buckets of corn!

However, what they want most is the "Detailed Rules of Civil Law" published by the imperial court, which can not only be used to atone for crimes, but more importantly, it is full of Qin characters that they can't reach!
Only by being able to read and write is it possible to be a military official in the army, otherwise no matter how great the merits are, you can only be promoted to the third level at most!

Under the Qin law, only those who become the fourth level can be exempted from corvee!
Just when these Qin people were full of hope for the future, in an alley three streets away from Xianyang Palace, a tall Hu girl walked out of the main gate of an official mansion with three seal characters of "Dian Yuguo".

The Hu girl has barbarian braids on her head, but she wears a moon-white curly train. Although it looks a little nondescript, this Hu girl looks like a bright moon on the grassland, bright and clean. no time.

This is Mu Ya, the princess of Yueshi who came to Xianyang with King Yueshi and asked to be attached.

Hu women who grew up riding horses always have relatively large buttocks. Although Mu Ya is still young, her plump buttocks and slender waist are very attractive to men.

Especially the few Qin soldiers who were guarding the gate of the Dianyu country followed behind Mu Ya and paid attention to him from afar.

When Mu Ya disappeared around the corner, they looked away reluctantly and stared at each other, filled with regret in their hearts.

A few days ago, the imperial court issued a document asking them if they would like to use the Juetian in Guanzhong to replace the wasteland in Huangzhong. If they are willing, they will be exempted from taxes and corvees, and they will be given housing and land and Qiang women as concubines...

It's a pity that there are very few applicants. The Qin people have the instinct of relocating and relocating, and most of them have more than [-] acres of cultivated land under their names, so they rejected the court's kindness.

It's just now... I heard that the Yuezhi people and the Qiang people are next to each other, and the Yuezhi people look like this, so the Qiang women should also look like this.

A bold idea suddenly appeared in the minds of these gatekeepers.

Mu Ya, who was walking on the snow in Xianyang City, also had a bold idea in her heart.

She wants to convince the emperor of Qin to buy a piece of land around Xianyang and pitch her tent here instead of going back to the grassland!

This idea started after she mistook Lintao County for Xianyang City.

Especially after being brought to Xianyang by the Qin people, what shocked her the most, as well as those five ministers who were a little reluctant to surrender to the Qin people, was that the closer to Xianyang, the wider the road!
It is based on loess and rammed with crushed stones. The road surface is much higher than the surrounding land. According to the leader of the Qin Dynasty, there are gold cones (copper bars) buried under the road that can make the road more durable. ).

The road is fifty steps (69.3 meters) wide and can accommodate ten carriages in parallel!

The way they entered Xianyang City that day was the official roads on both sides.

The Qin man who led the team specifically instructed that the road with a width of about two feet separated by pine trees in the center of the road is a special road for His Majesty the Emperor to go on tour.

Officials who occupy the place without authorization will be punished; while Qianshou who steps in without authorization will have a leg cut off!

The First Emperor didn't know that what seemed to him an ordinary road would have such a powerful shock to the barbarians.

After all, on the prairie, there is no other way for prairie people to go except for the roads trampled by cattle and sheep.

And in their simple hearts, it must be a powerful tribe who can build a road of this scale!
Attaching to the strong and plundering the weak is a tradition formed by the grassland people for hundreds of thousands of years.

Especially when they heard that only Xianyang City had a population of more than 60, their determination to submit to the Great Qin was strengthened.

You must know that there are only so many Da Yueshi who are known as controlling hundreds of thousands of strings, including Mu Nu!
At this moment, Mu Ya is standing on the extremely wide road of Xianyang City, looking at the Xianyang Palace in the distance, especially those tall twelve-gold men who reflect the sunlight, their mouths with slightly thick lips are slowly opening.

She couldn't help but think of what the Qin people in Dianyu country said:
The Weishui symbolizes the Milky Way, and the cross bridge above the Weishui corresponds to the six stars on the pavilion road.

Weinan Pole Temple corresponds to Nandou, and Zhangtai Palace corresponds to Jiantai Star;
Shanglinyuan corresponds to the Tianyuan star of the Pleiades;
The Lanchi Palace and Lanchi in the northeast of Xianyang correspond to the Wuche star and Xianchi star of Bisu;

The Xianyang Palace located in Xianyang City corresponds of course to the 'Purple Palace' where the Emperor of Heaven lives, which is the North Star.

Although Mu Ya didn't know what the stars were, she suddenly felt that the emperor of Qin Kingdom was a god?
At this moment, Fusu, suspected by Muya to be a god, was sitting in a side hall of Lanchi Palace, holding a ruler in his hand, his face as frosty.

Sitting on his left is Ziying with a dark complexion. He rushed back to Xianyang to participate in the La Festival.

On Fusu's right is the crying Ying Yinman, who clumsily holds a bamboo pen and writes large characters on the sand table in front of her.

People say that the eldest brother is the father. Since Tian and Zhao Erji were defeated by the little Lolita's coquettish offensive, Fu Su went out in person to supervise the little Lolita's literacy.
