Wandering the Heavens
Chapter 16 God Chapter 15
The worry about his own life span is why Qin Shihuang ignored the people's livelihood and organized the people to build various large-scale projects in a short period of time. King Xiao was 44 years old, King Huiwen was 46 years old, King Zhaoxiang lived to be 75 years old, King Xiaowen lived to be 53 years old, and Qin Shihuang's father was 35 years old. Excluding King Wu who died unexpectedly, this data made Qin Shihuang extremely worried.
As a modern person, Yu Xian felt extremely heavy when he read the book and then saw this vivid scene. This generation made great sacrifices for the evolution of Chinese civilization from feudal society to imperial civilization, but they did not even leave a name.
"Xiaoyue, remember these people well, remember their faces and eyes well."
Xiaoyue didn't know why Yu Xian said this, so she could only nod ignorantly.
In Fushi County, the capital of Shangjun County, Yu Xian and Xiao Yue were settled in an inn by the Jinyiwei.
Don't ask why the Jinyiwei's arms can reach so far. In this mythological world, Tuan crossed the Great Wall to plunder every few days and captured the peasants who were doing corvée labor as slaves. The Huns could send assassins to sneak into Xianyang City to assassinate people. It was not a big deal that Yu Xian's Jinyiwei could be distributed in the thirty-six counties.
Fusu was in charge here. After Meng Tian was poisoned, he was getting worse day by day. He had been holding on to Yi Xiaochuan to carry the banner of the Meng family army. However, Yi Xiaochuan was a little busy. He had just returned from the expedition against Di Rong. When he heard the news that King Tuan's tent was attacked and King Tuan's family was executed, he went to the burned King Tuan's tent to investigate the case.
"Mr. Yu, I never thought we would meet here!"
Fusu did not stay with the army. Instead, he came to my door as soon as he heard that I had arrived in Fushi. How bored he was.
"Greetings, Prince Fusu." Yu Xian had no choice but to stand up and salute.
"Sir, there's no need to be so polite." Fusu said and sat aside.
Seeing this scene, Yu Xian knew that he would have to waste most of the day again. Sure enough, Fusu kept chatting here until the sun was about to set before leaving.
At this moment in King Tuan's tent, Yi Xiaochuan was looking at the scorched earth on the ground, recalling the time he had spent here, and couldn't help feeling sad. The female slave who had been following him was leading people to search for clues everywhere.
"General, the thieves were dealt with very cleanly and no traces were found." The female slave came to the still sad Yi Xiaochuan and reported the results of the search.
"What did you say?" Yi Xiaochuan hurriedly wiped away his tears without leaving a trace.
"General, I am incompetent and cannot find any trace of the thieves. They did a very clean job. There was nothing at the scene except the big flag planted on the Jingguan." The female slave quickly replied.
Yi Xiaochuan looked up at the big flag. The flag was made of coarse cloth, and the words on it were a little blurred and faded due to the sun and rain.
"Whoever openly offends the Qin Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away he is; whoever is righteous and brave will be killed no matter how strong he is. This sentence, this sentence doesn't originally mean like this!" Yi Xiaochuan trembled all over.
"General?" The slave girl saw that Yi Xiaochuan's mood was not right.
"I know who the murderer is." Yi Xiaochuan clenched his fists.
"The general is wise." The slave girl didn't know what to say, but it was always right to flatter the emperor.
After Yi Xiaochuan performed a simple sacrifice, he hurried back to Fushe. He was going back to Xianyang, and he thought Yu Xian must still be there.
The words on the banner were actually taken from a memorial of the Han Dynasty and an imperial edict of the Ming Dynasty. Yi Xiaochuan had heard about it from his parents and brother. In this world, only he and Yu Xian knew about it. (Sorry, he really didn't remember Gao Yao, but Gao Yao didn't know this knowledge.)
Who else but Yu Xian would do such a thing?
So when Yi Xiaochuan rushed into Fushi City with a small team of cavalry, he saw Yu Xian and Xiaoyue shopping, and Xiaoyue was holding a bamboo slip and recording something.
"Capture this man. If he resists, kill him on the spot!"
Seeing his enemy right in front of him, Yi Xiaochuan raised his hand and pointed at Yu Xian.
Upon hearing the order, more than a hundred cavalrymen quickly drew their swords and adjusted their formation to surround Yu Xian and Xiao Yue.
"Sir, this?" Xiaoyue was a little flustered when she saw Yi Xiaochuan's face full of hostility.
"General Meng, what do you mean?" Yu Xian asked slowly, blocking Xiaoyue behind him.
"Yu Xian, why did you kill King Tuan's family? What deep hatred do they have against you?" Yi Xiaochuan burst into tears.
"General Meng, you falsely accused me of kidnapping Queen Tuan in Xianyang, and now you say that I killed King Tuan's family. I also want to know, why is General Meng so persistent in linking me to Tuan?" Yu Xian asked righteously at this moment, possessed by the young cabinet minister.
"Yu Xian, you dare to do it but not to take responsibility. In this world, who else can say the words on the flag except you and me!"
Seeing Yu Xian like this, Yi Xiaochuan wanted to draw his sword and chop him to death to vent his anger. Yu Shu's family members were all dead, and all the adult men in the tribal alliance were dead. If she knew, she would be so sad.
"General Meng, I am an outsider. How can I be qualified to know about the important affairs of the court you are talking about? Please don't make such a joke." Yu Xian looked unmoved.
Yi Xiaochuan was still thinking about how to punish him, but he saw Fusu riding a horse and running towards him with several cavalry guards, followed by a team of guards he brought from Xianyang.
These days, after Fusu finished his official duties for the day, he would come to Yu Xian to chat. After all, there were too many soldiers in Fushi, and their chatting style was more unrestrained. After Yu Xian came, he finally had someone to chat with.
Fearing that Yu Xian would be bored, a guide was specially arranged to take Yu Xian for a stroll around the city to kill time. This arrangement was still useful, for example, he went to inform Fusu that General Meng Yi wanted to capture Yu Xian.
"General Meng Yi, why do you want to arrest Mr. Yu? Is there any misunderstanding here?" After all, he is Meng Tian's younger brother, so Fusu still gives him face.
"My Lord, this man was the mastermind behind the abduction of Queen Tuan in Xianyang, and the murderer who destroyed the Tuan king's tent. Meng Yi begs you to give justice to the people of Tuan."
Yi Xiaochuan was also very upset. Xianyang had received news that the Tuan tribe was indeed harboring evil intentions, but only a few people knew about it. The emperor who unified the country had a beauty trap, and the Qin Dynasty could not afford to lose face. Yi Xiaochuan himself had been captured and made a slave in Tuan, so how could he have the nerve to ask the heir of the Qin Dynasty to uphold justice for this tribe.
Although the tragedy in King Tuan's tent was indeed too cruel given the education Fusu received, this was not the reason why Yi Xiaochuan was so excited.
"General Meng Yi, let me ask you, Mr. Yu is an outsider who travels around Daqin. My father couldn't bear to see him wandering alone, so he gave Xiaoyue to him to serve him. How did he kidnap Queen Tuan and her entourage of more than a dozen people, and how did he kill hundreds of adult men in King Tuan's tent?" Fusu also had a temper.
Who told him to meet Yi Xiaochuan for the first time? Because he instigated Liu Ji to propose marriage, which indirectly killed Lu's father and tarnished the reputation of Lu's daughter. If he was not Meng Tian's younger brother, he would have been expelled from Xianyang long ago, and there would be no young commander of the Meng family army today.
Yi Xiaochuan had a lot of grievances to overcome. He could not say that he and Yu Xian were not people of this era, because the first half of the sentence on the big flag was modified from a famous sentence in the memorial of Chen Tang, a famous general of the Han Dynasty, to Emperor Yuan of Han, which changed the powerful Han into the Great Qin; the second half was excerpted from the imperial edict of Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty rewarding the Ming army when it returned to the court after fighting against Japanese pirates in Korea.
If someone said something like this, Fusu would definitely find it even more ridiculous.
The Qin Dynasty was to last for hundreds, thousands, or even ten thousand generations, so where did the Han and Ming dynasties come from?
