Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 349 Xianyang
  Xianyang City, the capital of Qin, is also the most special capital among the seven kingdoms in the world.

Since the reform of Duke Xiao, the capital was moved to Xianyang and the Xianyang Palace was built. Later, the kings of Qin built more and fewer palaces. By the time of King Zhao, there were hundreds of palaces on both sides of the Jingwei River, stretching for hundreds of miles, connected by complex roads and corridors, and scattered with towns and villages. , hundreds of thousands of people live and survive around these palaces, which together form the largest and most special city among the seven kingdoms.

A city without walls!
  Xianyang City only has palace walls, not city walls.

Therefore, it is generally just called Xianyang, without the suffix "city" - generally speaking, there is no city without walls.

Starting from Xiaogong, for unknown reasons, Xianyang did not build a city wall. Subsequent Qin kings naturally followed their ancestors and did not build a city wall. But at the current scale, even if they wanted to, they could not build a city wall.

By the way, in fact, there are only four kings of Qin in the past dynasties: Duke Xiao, King Huiwen, King Wu, and King Zhaoxiang. Among them, King Wu only reigned for four years, which can be ignored.

By the way, I will also whip the corpses of King Xiaowen and King Zhuang Xiang. Since these two men only reigned for three years and three days together, the construction of Xianyang is generally counted up to King Zhaoxiang, not counting them, and then starts from The First Emperor continued to forget it.

………………

After leaving Wu Sui, Ying Zheng and others spent twelve days passing through Anyi, crossing Pu Ban, going south around the foothills of Huashan Mountain, crossing the Old Wei Great Wall, heading west to Yueyang, and finally to Xianyang.

With the inconvenience of horse-drawn carriages in this era, it is not easy to travel such a long distance in twelve days. It is a kind of physical and mental torture for those who are on the way.

Among Ying Zheng's group, he and Li Si were the most miserable. They couldn't eat, couldn't sleep, and almost lost half their lives along the way.

At this point, they still relied on Gu Xun's Yuhua Zhenqi to replenish them before they could barely persevere.

The others are all fine, after all, they all have good skills, so they won't be wasted in the rush.

Little Ayan was carefully taken care of by Gu Xun and Jingyu throughout the whole process, and he was the most comfortable one.

But despite the journey and hardships, I finally returned to Xianyang.

When Gai Nie said that he had arrived in Xianyang, Gu Xun was shocked because he had not seen the city wall at all.

As a semi-historically illiterate person, of course he didn't know that Xianyang City only had palace walls.

In the end, it was Li Si who gave him some popular science to clear up his doubts.

After Gu Xun found out about it, he felt that Qin Xiaogong and others were so reckless that they didn't even build the city wall. They clearly used the border gate as a wall envoy!
  After sighing, Gu Xun said goodbye to Ying Zheng and others.

The journey is now complete. Ying Zheng is going to the Xianyang Palace, while Gu Xun is going to the streets.

………………

In early July, some turmoil occurred in Xianyang City.

The Royal Palace Forbidden Army mobilized in large numbers, rampaging through the criss-crossing roads of Xianyang, and arrested a large number of officials with great fanfare.

The reason was that Wang Yan, the commander-in-chief of the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army and the chief of Zuo Shu, was planning to rebel.

According to the law, Wang Ye was sentenced to the severe punishment of the Yi tribe. Hundreds of people were hanged in Xianyang that day.

After that, all the officials who had a close personal relationship with him were directly imprisoned and convicted, and those who were more closely related to him were also strictly scrutinized.

In the end, people were hanged one after another, and as many as thousands were beheaded, and countless people were exiled and demoted.

What makes the people more interesting is that during this period, many Prime Minister Lu Buwei and people who believed in Hou Lao Ai were also affected - they should have nothing to do with Wang Yan.

Yet no one protected these theoretically innocent people. The Lao Ai people are far away in the old capital Yongcheng, and their power is concentrated there. They can't control Xianyang. However, the powerful prime minister Lu Buwei is also silent, which can't help but make the people on the streets and even many officials feel confused and feel Something stormy is coming.

At the same time, with the sound of countless heads falling to the ground, a medical clinic quietly opened on the street on the south bank of the Weishui River.

This street is called South Street because it is located south of Xianyang Palace and on the south bank of the Weishui River.

This place is far away from the palace and is not very prosperous, but the flow of people is no worse than that of Xinzheng East Street. During the busiest time during the day, there is also a lot of traffic and traffic.

………………

Gu Xun feels that life is a circle, and you always end up back to the starting point without realizing it.

For example, he is now back to the time when he first entered Xinzheng.

The specific situation is... no one cares about the medical clinic.

The population in the core area of ​​Xianyang is at least five times that of Xinzheng. However, although there are many people, the competition is also great. Compared with Xinzheng, which has few serious doctors in the whole city combined, the medical conditions in Xianyang are much better. Almost There are one to several medical clinics and drugstores on every street, and most of the doctors there are serious doctors, the kind who really understand medical skills.

When it comes to medical treatment, most people still prefer to find a doctor they know well, and Gu Xun looks young, which makes his first impression unreliable.

So the medical clinic has been open for five days, and he has only seen three patients in total, making a net profit... not even a penny, and he also lost a few doses of medicine.

The main reason why these three people came to him for medical treatment was that they were poor and looked down upon other doctors, so they tried their luck at Guxun, a newly opened medical clinic. Guxun naturally followed the usual principle-as long as he really had no money, he would Just give it directly.

In addition to the three prostitutes, of course there were others, like Xinzheng, those older girls, younger wives, sisters-in-law, aunts, etc., who came to see the handsome guy.

But I don't know if the Qin people's style is more unrestrained. Many of these women dare to go directly to hook up with Gu Xun.

The handling method is naturally the same as that of Xinzheng, just remove the gunpowder and send him away.

I don't know whether it was because the excitement was enough or because the gunpowder effect was taking effect. In the past two days, not many people came over, which gave Gu Xun some free time.

"Doctor Gu's medical clinic is a bit too empty." A calm and magnetic voice sounded in the lobby of the medical clinic.

Gu Xun took his eyes away from the slip and saw a dazzling white color.

The familiar white cloak, white robe, and the familiar expressionless Genie beside him.

"Mr. Shang? Why did you run away again...why did you come here when you had time?" Gu Xun was quite surprised and almost spilled the beans.

When sitting in a restaurant, he usually doesn't pay attention to what's going on around him. He just knows who's coming in, but doesn't know who it is.

"I heard that your husband's medical clinic has opened, but I haven't been able to take care of it. I just have some free time today, so I came to take a look."

"Well... okay." Gu Xun had nothing to say to Ying Zheng for leaving home for such a random reason, and could only say hello, "Please sit down first."

Ying Zheng did not rush to sit on the guest chair, but took a closer look at the new medical clinic.

I just walked in and took a cursory look, and I just felt that there was a huge main room with nothing in it, and it was completely blank. Looking closer now...it's still very empty.
