Chapter 11: Meiman's Journey
Hearing what Meiman said, Xiao He didn't know what to say. He just gestured to his wife who came running over after hearing the noise. Xiao He's wife understood and hurried to the kitchen to pour a glass of water and handed it to Meiman.
Ximan was really thirsty and wanted to ask for water just now, but she unexpectedly got a pleasant surprise. She took the water and drank it gracefully. After finishing the water, she hurriedly bowed to thank the couple.
After expressing her gratitude, Yingman bowed to Xiao He and said, "I just heard what you said. I think you have great insight. I wonder where you are now?"
"I don't deserve the title of young lady or gentleman. I am just a chief clerk in Pei County. How can I claim to be so high?" Xiao He said modestly. While saying this, he asked Ximan to sit down. God knows that she had to kneel down. If there was no person who seemed to be a great talent hanging here, Ximan would have said goodbye long ago.
After sitting for a while, Xiao He looked at Mei Man and said, "I don't know where you came from alone, young lady. You must have something to do in Pei County. If you are looking for someone, I am not talented, but I know a thing or two about the people in Pei County. If you are just passing by, I can also do my best to be a good host."
When Xiao He saw the woman in front of him was dressed gorgeously and had extraordinary conversation, he wanted to make friends with her.
When the host asked her, Ximan replied embarrassedly, "I am Han Ying, from the Han area. I passed by Pei County when I was out for fun..."
Before she finished, Meiman thought of something, "Wait, this is Pei County. The man who just came here calls himself Xiao, and his given name is He. The most important thing is that he and Prime Minister Xiao of the Western Han Dynasty had exactly the same job during this period of time, both of them were the chief clerk of Pei County. So the person in front of me is most likely the famous Prime Minister Xiao He of the Han Dynasty in history."
He is known as "the first marquis of the founding of the Han Dynasty" and one of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty who "success and failure are all due to Xiao He".
You know, after Xiang Yu burned Xianyang, Guanzhong was devastated and broken. Xiao He stayed behind as the prime minister, responsible for conquering Bashu, guarding and pacifying the people, issuing decrees, informing the people, and supplying food to the army fighting in the Han Dynasty, making great contributions to the unification of the Western Han Dynasty.
When Xiao He stayed in Guanzhong, he formulated various laws and regulations. Xiao He managed the household registration in Guanzhong, transported military rations by water and land, and supplied the troops in the front. Liu Bang lost troops and fled on the battlefield many times, and Xiao He often recruited soldiers from Guanzhong to replenish the losses of the Han army in time. He was a good hand at governing the country. If Xiao He was recommended to his father and brother, they would feel much more relaxed, after all, it is a Taoist who will not die.
After calming down, Yingman continued, "I wanted to have some fun in Pei County and then leave, but I came to your house by chance. I just listened to your teachings and knew that you are very talented. I have a problem that I would like to ask you for advice."
"Girl, please feel free to speak up. I don't have to tell you everything I know."
"What you said before is: Those who know how to be officials abide by the law to benefit others; those who do not know how to be officials bend the law to harm others. It can be seen that you have a good understanding of official administration, and you have made the country's governance legal and implemented governance according to law."
"Your Excellency's service to the emperor is unknown to the emperor. This shows that your loyalty is not complete. Ying deeply agrees with this."
"Then sir, how do you view the common people in the world?"
Xiao He: "A country is based on its people, the people are based on food and clothing, and food and clothing are based on agriculture and sericulture."
"My elder brother once told me: A ruler is like a boat, and people are like water. Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. Now that the world has just been unified, the people of the six former states have not yet returned to their hearts, so we should focus on appeasing them and use hegemony to shock them. Both you and my elder brother value the people of the world, and we will definitely become close friends."
Xiao He was very surprised when he heard this, and asked Mei Man hurriedly: "I wonder who your brother is. I want to talk to him. Can you introduce him to me?"
Ximan nodded first, then shook her head, and said embarrassedly: "My elder brother is far away in Xianyang now, and you are in charge of the government in Pei County. It is really inconvenient. I don't know why you didn't take the imperial examination last year. With your great talent, I believe you will win the first prize and be valued by His Majesty the First Emperor."
Xiao He replied disappointedly, "Miss, you are too kind. Unfortunately, I fell ill before leaving last year and was unable to participate in the first imperial examination. I am really sorry."
Seeing this, Meiman hurriedly said, "Sir, don't be discouraged. You will definitely get what you want in the next imperial examination. My elder brother is now working in the palace of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. This is Ying's visiting card. You can get to know my brother before the imperial examination. I think it will be of great benefit to you."
After talking with Xiao He, Aiman praised and encouraged Xiao Yan and Xiao Lu, thanked Xiao He's wife Tong, and then embarked on a new journey.
As for Liu Bang, the Emperor Gaozu of Han, and Liu Ji, who was not even the chief of Sishui Pavilion, she did not take it to heart. After all, the fundamental reason for the fall of the Qin Dynasty in the original history was not Liu Bang. If her father and brother were incompetent, even if there was no Liu Bang, there would still be Zhang Bang and Li Bang.
The next stop for Meiman is to visit her mother's hometown and look for Zhang Liang. After that, she plans to visit the Western Regions and the shores of Lake Baikal and give it a nice name. After all, this name is too different from the Qin Empire and is not pleasant to hear.
While sightseeing, Yiman thought, "Morality cannot change the fate of a person, nor can it change the fate of a country. Empty talk about morality and righteousness is the greatest hypocrisy in the world. Now I have corrected Fusu's thinking and stopped him from talking about righteousness all the time. I don't know what the future of Daqin will be, and whether Daqin can break the curse of changing dynasties every two or three hundred years. Well, it is better to do well in the present, and leave the future to future generations to worry about." Thinking of this, Yiman seemed to have let go of some worries, and even her steps became much lighter.
When Ximan arrived in Yingchuan, it was already March.
Along the way, Ximan saw the plain and warm life of farmers: "The Wu accent sounds so charming when drunk, whose old man and old woman have white hair? The eldest son is hoeing beans on the east side of the stream, the middle son is weaving a chicken coop. I like the youngest naughty son the most, lying at the head of the stream and peeling lotus pods."; she saw the wonders of the sea: "The sun rises over the sea at midnight, and the Fusang trees begin to turn red. The Huangzhi and Liuqiu appear and disappear in the white waves."; she saw the magnificent sight of the north country with thousands of miles of ice and snow; she also saw the miserable and poor life of "the children are cold and have no clothes, and the lovely children are sleeping in the cracked ground."
From the beginning, Ximan was carefree, looking for scenic spots to write poems and paint, but now she has to face the hardship she has never experienced before and the sadness of reality. Slowly, Ximan who "has been floating in the air" in the game Daqin disappeared, and was replaced by His Royal Highness the Prince of Chen, who punishes evil and promotes good and cares about the people.
Along the way, Yiman built kangs and honeycomb coal for the Yan people whose cloth quilts were as cold as iron, and used the Black Ice Guards who protected her to spread the manufacturing methods; she also provided the mountain people far away from the sea with the technology of refining crude salt and making mineral salt.
Of course, she also encountered assassination attempts on the way. Fortunately, after learning about what Li Man had done outside, the First Emperor sent 300 Qin elite soldiers to protect Li Man, allowing the little princess, who had never experienced the dangers of the world before, to arrive in Yingchuan safely.
Ximan went around the former Han Palace and inquired about Zhang Liang for a while, but to no avail. Only then, at the repeated urging of the First Emperor, did she return to Xianyang.
