Jagged Legion

Chapter 40

He Xiaowang's pacification of Lingnan was a great boost to Qin Shihuang.Since then, Qin Shihuang unified the six countries and completed the annexation war against the six countries. He attacked the Xiongnu in the north and attacked Baiyue in the south, becoming the first unified country in Chinese history.Qin unified the six kingdoms, then decided the frontiers, attacked the Xiongnu in the north, attacked Baiyue in the south, fixed the four poles, and established the first multi-ethnic country with a vast territory and unity.Qin's territory extends to the sea and Korea in the east, to Linyi and Qiangzhong in the west, to Xianghu in the south, to the river in the north, and to Liaodong in the Yinshan Mountains.The establishment of such a vast multi-ethnic feudal state opened a new page in the development of Chinese history.There are bound to be various problems in the development of society.From a historical point of view, after every major social change, the contradictions are greatly alleviated. At this time, all kinds of wastes are waiting to be built, all kinds of industries are waiting to be promoted, and everyone is thinking about building a home. At that time, the top is conscientious and hardworking, and the bottom is hard Work hard and work hard.It can be said that all kinds of businesses are booming and all kinds of construction are full of vigor.When the society develops to a certain stage, the upper class becomes corrupt rapidly and hedonism prevails, while the lower class becomes numb and ignorant.At this time, the society was in turmoil and the people lived in hardship.This is determined by the periodicity of social development.After the first emperor unified the country, there were several parades.

It can be said that He Xiaowang made great contributions in the Southern and Northern Wars.But Li Si and Zhao Gao have completely fallen into the same faction, he doesn't think so, in their view, with the increasing contribution of He Xiaowang, the threat to them is also increasing.When He Xiaowang returned to Xianyang, Qin Shihuang received He Xiaowang with great etiquette and rewarded him with huge rewards.He Xiaowang accepted the reward from the first emperor very low-key and did not mention Zhao Gao, Li Si and the others' slander against him, but returned to his mansion very low-key and calm.He Xiaowang is familiar with history, how can he not know the emperor's usual tricks, how many generals in the history of the Qin Dynasty have made great contributions to the Great Qin Dynasty, but they were not killed mercilessly, except for the general Wang Jian who knew how to advance and retreat and died of old age None of the rest of the staff died well.He Xiaowang is not willing to be the soul of Qin Shihuang's sword.Although he swears to follow Fusu to the death, it is better to keep a low profile while Qin Shihuang is still alive. No matter how much he has, he may have nothing at any time and die in Dongcheng.After winning the victory over the various tribes in South Vietnam, He Xiaowang immediately wrote to Prince Fusu, telling him that the situation would become more and more severe.The first emperor has completed the unification of the whole country, and there is no longer any external threat, so he will focus on dealing with internal affairs. Then this is also the moment when the battle between Prince Fusu and the princes who have different intentions is fierce, and we must not take it lightly.He Xiaowang repeatedly warned that he must not act rashly and not believe in any external rumors. The key is to protect his life from harm, and He Xiaowang can make a good plan for the prince in other matters.He Xiaowang was very excited when he received the unprecedented courtesy from the First Emperor, but He Xiaowang didn't show it and locked himself in the study.Thinking of my wars in the South and the North, I was always on guard, cautious, and did not dare to relax in the slightest. Today I finally completed the task, and I couldn't help but shed tears.He Xiaowang picked up a pen and wrote on the silk: "A scholar is overwhelmed with strength. Now I can only hold the pen and ink, relax my mind, and enjoy myself. Look at me in Huaxia. There is an ancient saying: Huayi must be strictly distinguished, and Spring and Autumn will not review it. My majestic teacher protects the home and defends the country, but the enemy is thousands of miles away. Woohoo!!! The time is not waiting for me, and the last time is regretful. The way of keeping a low profile is not to obey. Only by being tough can you convince others. Peace will lead to peaceful existence, and peace will be abolished by seeking peace through weakness."

Qin Shihuang's eagerness to summon He Xiaowang back this time was not only to appease the public opinion, but also for a more important thing, which was to let He Xiaowang and Qin Ning accompany him on a parade.He Xiaowang knew that Qin Shihuang unified the six countries in 26 and died in the sand dunes in 37. During this period, there were five large-scale nationwide parades. It costs a lot of money to do it, and the waste of people and money is unbearable.Then according to the time, the first emperor will die soon after several parades, and the first emperor will die during the fifth parade.He Xiaowang felt very fortunate that he could guard against Zhao Gao and Li Si's other moves by following the first emperor's tour, and he could protect Fusu at any time.

He Xiaowang and Qin Ning packed their bags and set off after receiving the order from the First Emperor. He Xiaowang didn't stay in He Mansion for a few days at all.He Xiaowang took Zhao Guang, Li Xian, Li Longxiang and [-] cavalry troops to guard around the first emperor day and night.Following the first emperor's parade is to tour the northwest area of ​​Longxi.Inspect the military situation of Mengtian Mengyi and Prince Fusu, as well as some movements of the Huns.Fusu and Mengtian Mengyi launched a grand welcome ceremony.The crown prince helped Su, Meng Tian and Meng Yi knelt on the ground to welcome the first emperor, the first emperor slowly got off the dragon carriage, He Xiaowang and Qin Ning separated from each other.The first emperor said: "Prince, please get up, two generals!" Fusu: "Please enter the tent." The first emperor nodded and walked slowly into the tent.Fusu fell to his knees again: "Father!! My sons and ministers are not filial. They can only guard the frontier and cannot relieve the emperor's worries." The first emperor slowly helped Fusu up: "You have all made great contributions to our country. Wang Mengtian, Mengyi and the others assist you, so I feel at ease. Fusu, I have wronged you, did I let you hate your father in the northwest frontier?" Fusu knelt down and cried: "Father, my son once again Garrisoning the frontier is what a son or minister should do, how can you be greedy for pleasure." The First Emperor nodded: "My Great Qin Kingdom, shall be eternal and never exhausted." He Xiaowang accompanied Qin Shihuang to stay at Meng Tian for several days. Days later, they were still ordered to stay here, and Qin Shihuang went out to patrol the counties in the northwest of Longxi.Along the Jingshui River to Beidi County, go out of Jitou Mountain, pass Huizhong, enter Longxi County, and then return to Xianyang along the Weishui River.He Xiaowang and Qin Ning took care of him along the way, Zhao Gao was completely excluded by He Xiaowang, and now Emperor Shi Huang’s health is getting worse and worse, if there is any abnormality, He Xiaowang doesn’t want to cause more troubles, so he will use various excuses All kinds of things, and Qin Ning followed the first emperor, these moved the old emperor to tears.Outside, He Xiaowang ordered Li Longxiang to stay close and protect the surroundings, even if the emperor's personal soldiers saw the emperor, they had to get He Xiaowang's permission.To a certain extent, He Xiaowang has already controlled the power of the Qin Dynasty.But what He Xiaowang did was completely based on historical records. The first emperor's health was getting worse and worse, and he was about to die soon. He had no choice but to implement this method.Soon after returning to Xianyang, the first emperor decided to tour the counties and counties in the east.He Xiaowang and Qin Ning followed Shi Huangdi again.

He Xiaowang's current position is very stable, and the first emperor also felt guilty for his suspicion of He Xiaowang during the Southern and Northern Expeditions, so he trusted He Xiaowang even more.Since the 28th year, Qin Shihuang began to tour the prefectures and counties in the east. He first went to Zouze Mountain (south of Zouxian County, Shandong Province), and erected stone steles, inscriptions praising the merits of Qin Shihuang.This time Qin Shihuang decided to climb Mount Tai to worship the heaven and the earth in person, seeking to bless the foundation of the Great Qin Kingdom forever. Zen Liangfu (South of Tai’an, Shandong), traveled northeast to the east of the Bohai Sea, passed Huang (Huang County, Shandong), and 腄 (Fushan, Shandong) Southeast), Qiongchengshan (Shandong Chengshanjiao), Dengzhifu (Shandong Zhifu Island).And south to Langye, where they stayed for three months to drink, built Langye Terrace, and carved stones to praise Qin's merits and virtues.Qin Shihuang's health was getting worse and worse. Qin Shihuang ordered the alchemist Xu Fu to send thousands of virgins and boys to the sea to seek immortals during his tour.One day during a parade, Qin Shihuang talked about life and death with He Xiaowang.The First Emperor said: "Xiao Wang, since I ascended the throne, I have expanded the territory and expanded the land, in exchange for the thousands of miles of frontier of the empire today, but there is still one thing in my heart that I have not said in my heart, that is, my body is getting worse every day. "He Xiaowang: "Your Majesty, the ancients said: 'Life and death are fate, wealth and honor are in the sky' This is only for ordinary people, but for the emperor, he should transcend life and death and live forever." The first emperor: "Haha,,, Xiaowang , when did you become so flattering? You don’t want to say these things to me here. I have sent Xu Fu to go overseas several times to seek gods, but they have failed several times. Your thoughts have always been active. Tell me your opinion." He Xiaowang: "I'm not flattering you, that's what I mean. I hope the emperor will live forever. As for whether there are immortals or not, I think there is no such thing as gods and ghosts in the world, as long as we cherish blessings." Cultivate one's health, cherish the power of the people, the deeds of all ages will be forever." The first emperor laughed, not saying anything.

Qin Shihuang returned to Pengcheng (Xuzhou) from Langya, and sent He Xiaowang to lead thousands of people to Surabaya to search for the missing Zhou Ding. He Xiaowang searched here for a long time but failed to find it.So the first emperor decided to go southwest to cross the Huai River.When I came to Hengshan and marched up the river, I came to Xiangshan Temple. In case of strong winds, it was almost impossible to cross the river.The first emperor asked the accompanying doctor and learned that it was Shun's wife, the God of Xiang, who was at fault. He was furious and sent three thousand criminals to cut down the trees in Xiangshan, turning Xiangshan into a barren mountain.Although He Xiaowang saw this scene, he knew it was superstition, but as a modern person, what would he say to the backward human beings thousands of years ago?There is a danger of beheading if you say it badly.The first emperor changed his route and returned to Xianyang from Wuguan.After He Xiaowang returned to Xianyang with Qin Shihuang, he began to pay attention to the maintenance of the first emperor's body. He Xiaowang prepared some modern health medicines according to the prescriptions in his memory, and let the first emperor take them. .He Xiaowang knew that these elixirs could not solve the health of the first emperor, and the many years of emperor life had worn down the various functions of the first emperor's body.
