A military general stood up. Qin Xingfu took a look and felt that he looked familiar. What was his name, Wang something? Wang Li?

"Hello, General Wang. If you have something to say, just tell me. It's not like I'm asking for your advice."

Wang Li saluted and Qin Xingfu returned the salute.

"According to the book you wrote, I have studied it for a long time. I am very confused about the dismissal of the old, weak and wounded soldiers in the army. After dismissing the experienced people, recruiting new soldiers again, the new soldiers will not only need to be trained, but also lack combat experience. This will be disadvantageous to the Qin Dynasty. In terms of military affairs, I ask Your Majesty not to adopt the princess's advice."

Qin Xingfu thought about it and felt very upset.

"General Wang, when you read this, did you see these premises? The way I'm managing the army will take at least five years. Just wait and see! Right now, the most important thing for the entire Qin is grain production. With more grain, people can eat enough and have children. Soldiers will work harder if they are well fed."

After saying that, he turned around and looked at the First Emperor with some resentment. Why did this guy bring out everything?

"Your Majesty, if you keep doing this, I won't write anymore. Those are for you to see. You just need to know what's going on. I've caused everyone to misunderstand. Just treat it as something I said randomly. Just watch the fun! Don't take it seriously. If General Wang Li is not convinced, you and I can each train a team of a thousand people, and when I'm free, I'll challenge you to a duel. It'll take about half a year! How do you think?"

General Wang Li looked at the First Emperor, hoping that he would allow it, as the First Emperor knew how many things she had done.

"Do you still have time to train the army?"

"You have to make time even if you don't have time. Who wouldn't want to be dissatisfied? Your Majesty, can you find someone from the Mohist School? I asked someone from the Mohist School to do the mechanical drawings for you before. I also want to learn from them."

Doing other things every day, she almost forgot her talent. She wanted to make machinery, but she didn't have the materials.

"I see that you not only want people from the Mohist school, but also from the medical school, the Yin-Yang school, and the Confucian school. I have killed many people before. Can you still summon them to serve the Qin?"

"Everyone in the world is here for profit. People always need to have enough food to eat and become famous. Your Majesty, try my advice. After all, a single flower does not make spring. You need a hundred flowers to bloom, each with its own characteristics. If you walk on multiple legs, Daqin will get better and better. If you are worried about problems, you can find a few places to demonstrate."

To be honest, Li Si really wanted to object, but when he saw the books related to law in his hand, he fell silent. After thinking for a long time, Li Si stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, I think Princess Huiyuan's plan is feasible, but we still need to think long-term."

Seeing that the prime minister had no objection, the others all agreed. The First Emperor nodded.

"In this case, the Great Qin will start from the court. We will start with the imperial examinations to select officials. The selection methods are divided into civil, military, engineering, mathematics, and art. All the philosophers can come to Xianyang to serve the Great Qin. Fusu will be in charge of this matter, and Qin Xingfu and Li Si will assist them. After the plan is completed, I will make the decision."

Qin Xingfu didn't expect that the First Emperor was willing to give it a try. Then she could make some suggestions based on the actual situation of the Qin Dynasty and then hand it over to Fusu. She didn't like Li Si and always felt that he was up to no good.

"Long live your Majesty!"

As soon as the First Emperor finished speaking, Qin Xingfu couldn't wait to shout out loud, and the others reacted and shouted too.

"Long live your Majesty!"

The beginning of the Qin Dynasty's reforms woke up many people. Some people who often cursed the First Emperor were speechless for a moment. They did not expect that the always tyrannical Ying Zheng would suddenly become so broad-minded.

Many people sent people to Xianyang. All of Qin Xingfu's libraries were opened on New Year's Eve. Qin Xingfu brought firecrackers, which attracted many people to stop and watch.

The library was handed over to a maid in the mansion, and Qin Xingfu changed her name to Shishu. She herself liked reading very much, but she was a little introverted, so Qin Xingfu asked her to practice her courage more.

"Dear neighbors, today Qinhua Library is officially open. Everyone can come to borrow and copy books. You need to pay one gold coin to enter. After reading and copying, a special person will check that the books are intact and return the gold coin. The number of people allowed to enter the library is limited to 200 per day. There are a total of five such libraries in Xianyang City. Please recognize the names. Please read the rules carefully before entering. Those who violate the rules three times will not be allowed to enter."

As soon as the secretary finished speaking, many people began to enter. When they entered, they saw a map of the distribution of books in the room, with the types of each area marked, as well as areas for copying, dining, and bathrooms, etc.

"Shopkeeper, what is this bathroom?"

The secretary replied.

"closet"

Everyone understood, and started to visit. The library is divided into two floors with a corridor design. There are tables, chairs and benches outside, and free hot water. Food needs to be purchased. The bathroom is simply amazing, with both squatting and sitting positions. After using the bathroom, you can just flush it with water and there is no smell at all.

The whole library was still warm, and the ground was warm when you stepped on it.

"This is truly amazing. The person who came up with this must be seen."

Someone sighed.

"It looks like he just came from out of town. This was designed by the Internal History of Grain, Mr. Qin. These books were also written by Mr. Qin."

"Please help me solve this problem!"

So the locals quickly explained the situation to the outsiders.

"This Lord Qin was met by Prince Fusu when he was in Shangjun. It is said that Lord Qin descended from the sky and first brought the papermaking technique, then the printing technique, and even the agricultural seeds that could produce 1,000 kilograms per mu were planted by Lord Qin. Later, His Majesty recalled Prince Fusu, and Lord Qin came with him..."

When Shishu turned here, he shouted loudly.

"No noise allowed in the library!"

Everyone fell silent, thinking about the rules they had just seen, and started discussing as soon as they stepped out of the door.

"Brother, please continue to answer my questions. Han Xin will be very grateful!"

"You're welcome. You and I are about the same age. My name is Chai Wu. I've only been in Xianyang for a month. I heard these things from others."

Chai Wu was hesitant to speak. Han Xin had just sneaked in when there were many people around. He had heard about a strange man along the way, but he didn't know much about him.

"Brother, I'm really sorry, but I don't have much money. I'll ask Brother Chai to come back another day. I apologize in advance."

Chai Wu looked him up and down. Although the man was dressed shabbily, he had a dignified appearance and an extraordinary appearance, so he had to continue speaking.

"Forget it. I'll treat you. When you become successful in the future, just don't forget martial arts."

Han Xin was extremely grateful and bowed quickly. The two of them walked to a noodle stall nearby and sat down.

"In fact, this Lady Qin is a woman, and she is already 21 years old. When she came with Prince Fusu, many people privately thought that she might be using her beauty to seduce others. She looks like a fairy, but she is too thin and only seven or eight feet tall. But later, her impropriety in public was not cared by His Majesty. On the spot, His Majesty and the ministers took out the tax revenue and asked her to calculate it. She got the result in half an hour. His Majesty, against all odds, appointed her as the Internal History of Grain Administration, mainly responsible for the planting of farms on the outskirts of Xianyang. If it were someone else, they would have been grateful long ago, but she was different. She said right from the start that she was not used to the early morning court session, so she was allowed to attend the court session once every half a month or a month. Tell me if she is a strange person!"

Han Xin was stunned. This man was so bold and reckless. He was the cruel and ruthless First Emperor!

"Haha... Brother Han, are you shocked? I didn't expect there are such people in the world. There are even more bizarre things. Let me tell you slowly."

Chai Wu quickly drank some water. The owner brought him some noodles and Chai Wu ate while talking.

"Later, Lord Qin went to check the farms outside Xianyang. He went there in person and asked people to dig pits to ferment manure. The ministers said that she was vulgar. Lord Qin grabbed the Fengchang like a puppy and then asked him to compete with her. Guess what happened?"

While Chai Wu was speaking, Han Xin had already finished his noodles and drank the soup. He wiped his mouth with his sleeve and asked.

"What? Did you win?"

Chai Wu was afraid that the noodles would clump together, so he ate them quickly in just three or two bites.

"Yes, she won. When Lord Qin played the first tune, it was said that people felt as if they were floating in the air. Lord Qin also said that it was just for practice, as she was not familiar with the chimes. After she finished speaking, she immediately played the second tune. I recently learned it and hummed it for you."

Chai Wu hummed it, and Han Xin felt his blood boiling after hearing it. He wanted to visit Qin Xingfu immediately, but he had something else to listen to, so he listened patiently. After listening, he felt that he couldn't waste even a moment.

"Brother Chai Wu, thank you for your kindness in giving me a meal. I will repay you with a huge sum of money someday. I will go find you. I'll take my leave now."

Han Xin said goodbye in a hurry and left. Chai Wu didn't call him back. Oh no, he forgot to tell him that Lord Qin didn't accept guests.

Han Xin found out about Qin Xingfu's residence, but saw that there were few people in front of her house. He was very curious, why was it so deserted? Shouldn't it be crowded? He went forward to greet the attendant at the door and asked.

"Hello, young man. Is this the residence of Mr. Qin Xingfu?"

The concierge nodded, feeling very impatient but still smiling as he returned the greeting.

"Hello, sir. This is the residence of Qin Neishi."

Han Xin was a little surprised. He didn't expect it to be true.

"I am Han Xin from Huaiyin, and I would like to see Lord Qin! I am willing to serve Lord Qin at my utmost."

"Master Han, this is your first time in Xianyang!"

Han Xin was puzzled. How come everyone knew that he had just arrived in Xianyang today?

"Exactly!"

The doorman sighed helplessly.

"Mr. Han, you don't know that our master doesn't accept guests, so you may have come here in vain. Today is New Year's Eve, and our master is busy. Please accept this little thing! Buy some delicious food."

The concierge took out a string of Qin Banliang from her bosom. The master said that this was specially given to people who came to the door. Although the master rejected many people, no one had any complaints about her, and everything came from the public.

Han Xin didn't expect that Qin Xingfu would not accept any retainers, but he still wanted to try.

"Brother, I cannot accept this money without merit. Please do me a favor. I want to meet Lord Qin."

The two were arguing at the door. Qin Xingfu had written the Spring Festival couplets inside the house and had people post them on the doors. She went to post the front door herself.

When he came out with the couplets, he saw the doorman arguing with someone, so he went up to ask.

"What happened?"

The concierge saluted quickly.

"Sir, this man wants to come to your house as a guest. No matter how much I try to persuade him, he won't leave and insists on seeing you."

Qin Xingfu saw the man, who was dressed in rags and looked pale and thin, and said to the doorman.

"Today is New Year's Eve, please bring some more food and drinks, and some more clothes."

"Here!"

The doorman went to get something, and Qin Xingfu asked the person who came.

"Who are you? Don't you know that I don't accept guests?"

"I am Han Xin from Huaiyin, nice to meet you, Lord Qin."

Han Xin was still a young man in his teens or twenties. When he saw Qin Xingfu blushing all the way to his neck, he quickly saluted to identify himself.

Qin Xingfu blinked when she heard the name. Oh, why did Han Xin come to see her? Has her fame spread so far?

"Hello, I don't accept retainers. If you want to be an official in the court, go to the streets in ten days to look at the list. His Majesty will show mercy and start selecting talents from all over the country. No matter their family background, talent, appearance, gender, talented people will be given important positions."

Why wait another ten days? Because she wanted to give herself a vacation. She had worked so hard for so long and hadn't had a real rest.

Han Xin obviously didn't hear the news. He was too anxious and didn't know what to do for a moment. He wondered if he would offend Lord Qin.

"Master Qin, I am sorry for offending you. Please forgive me!"

Qin Xingfu waved his hand and said.

"It's nothing! Just wait patiently. Don't take it to heart. Your Majesty and Prince Fusu are both very good people. Don't worry!"

Seeing the doorman bringing something, Qin Xingfu took out a few gold cakes from his arms.

"Please take these things and return them to me when you have them in the future. It's getting cold, so find a place to stay as soon as possible!"

Han Xin nodded. As long as there was another way out, he would definitely make a name for himself. He knelt down and paid his respects. Qin Xingfu quickly dodged. These old ancestors really wanted her to die soon!

"Alright, alright, stand up! A man's knees are made of gold, so stop kneeling down to others!"

Han Xin knew this very well. All at once, all the insults, ridicule, and contempt he had suffered before came to his mind. He almost couldn't hold it back. He tried hard to suppress his emotions and spoke with a slightly choked voice.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Qin!"

Han Xin took the things with both hands and said goodbye. Qin Xingfu saw that he had left and quickly asked someone to bring glue to paste the Spring Festival couplets.

"Study hard in spring, autumn, winter and summer to see who will win the first prize. Morality, intelligence, physical fitness, beauty, knowledge and talent are the ones who can reach the stars. I wish everyone can get what they want! Okay, okay, everyone close the door and go in to eat."

The doorman closed the door with a smile and followed Qin Xingfu into the house.

"Happy New Year everyone, may we have this day every year, after New Year's Eve it will be a new year, thank you for accompanying me, I offer you a cup of wine, everyone eat and drink well, don't go home until you are drunk, we are all alone in this world, from now on we are family to each other, thank you!"

Qin Xingfu started drinking after he finished speaking. Hu Hai watched them having fun and went back to his room very lonely. He couldn't say why. He tried hard to get along with them and wanted to be as lively as Qin Xingfu, but everyone was very respectful to him and always kept their distance from him. He felt very uncomfortable.

Qin Xingfu was forced to drink by everyone. After walking around and not seeing Hu Hai, he went to his room to look for him in person.

"It's New Year's Day, why are you sleeping so early? Hurry up and get up, let's play together!"

Hu Hai returned to his room and felt more and more aggrieved. He cried secretly. When he saw Qin Xingfu kicking the door open, he became furious.

“Qin Xingfu, you are so bold!”

In Qin Xingfu's eyes, he looked like a cute and fierce little puppy, and she couldn't help but lick him.

"Haha...you're so cute. Let's go, let's eat and play games together."

Hu Hai was stunned by her kiss, and he didn't know how to react when she pulled him. He felt very strange, his heart was pounding, and his mind was in a daze.
