Chapter 541: The Reign of Qin Shi Huang
"Sir, you are so elegant," Meng Tian's voice came from behind her. This iron-blooded general, who had fought all over the world, now often lingered in the school, attending classes without taking off his military uniform.
He pointed to the training ground in the distance, his eyes full of admiration: "His Majesty will come to inspect the military academy tomorrow. These girls are really working hard."
Su Mohui looked in the direction he pointed and saw a Zhao woman sparring fiercely with a Qin centurion. The ring-handled sword cut through the biting wind and snow, and the air waves it created even caused the tiger-head swallow mouth on the centurion's armor to tremble slightly.
She smiled slightly, "It's the general's good teaching."
Needless to say, the sight before us speaks for itself. The Qin Empire is rapidly developing in unprecedented directions, and every transformation is reshaping the future of the empire.
.................
On the day of acceptance, the front hall of Xianyang Palace was filled with officials and all the civil and military officials in the court gathered to watch the ceremony.
When the thirty-six Xuanniao Guard students marched into the hall in neat steps, exclamations arose one after another in the hall.
Everyone saw their armor, trimmed with cloud brocade, exuding a sense of grandeur and heroism. Their breastplates were embossed with a relief version of "The Qin Empire," chronicling the achievements of Shang Yang's reforms to the present day. A lifelike black bird with outstretched wings adorned their chests, symbolizing the rise of a new power. And on the crossbow mechanism in their hands, the gear patterns, refined by Su Mohui, shone with a cold glow, demonstrating technological advancement.
The leading female official knelt on one knee, her voice clear as a bell: "I, Li Yue, lead the 'Black Bird Guard' to pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
The tails of the three-edged crossbows they held were engraved with the place names of their hometowns in Qin seal script. The tail of the three-edged crossbow in Li Yue's hand had the word "Yunzhong" clearly engraved in Qin seal script. On the crossbow guard, the wheat ear pattern and black bird pattern of the Zhaonu Weaving Workshop were perfectly integrated, telling the fusion of people's livelihood and military.
When they shouted in unison, "The sun and the moon shine together, men and women prosper together," their voices echoed among the twelve-branched lamp trees in the Xianyang Palace, and the coiled snake patterns on the lamp trees seemed to dance with the sound.
Ying Zheng's gaze swept across the queue and landed on the token on Li Yue's waist.
It was a military order carved from coral from Dongxian County, with the words "Men and Women Shine Together" engraved on the back.
He suddenly stood up, his Tai'a sword unsheathed, its cold light illuminating the determined faces of the students. "Okay! From today on, the Xuanniao Guard will be directly under my command. All women in the Great Qin can join the army and enroll in school!"
Outside the hall, snowflakes fluttered and landed on the plaque of "Pingdeng School", adding the final silver-white stroke to the word "Ping".
Su Mohui looked at the cheering crowd and suddenly remembered the "burning of books and burying of scholars" recorded in the third reincarnation.
Today, those bamboo slips that were almost burned are turning into seeds of civilization, spreading from Xianyang to all corners of the world, taking root and sprouting in the pens of women and the mouths of children, growing into towering trees, protecting this new territory of the Great Qin.
.................
Yet, even in times of prosperity, there are always shadows. While the news of victory from a few months ago was still circulating, poisonous vines had already sprouted in the shadows, gnawing at the very foundations of the empire.
In 209 BC, it was just two days after the Rain Water solar term.
The alchemist Lu Sheng held the so-called "Stone of Immortality" and secretly colluded with Ying Chengjiao, Xiong Qi and others. When they were having a secret meeting among the ruins of Zhao Gao's old house, they actually dug out a talisman engraved with the word "Zhao".
What is even more shocking is that they stole the fragments of "Lu Ban Jing" from somewhere. The skeleton of the wooden kite in the workshop is gradually taking shape under the moonlight, and a strange cold light can be seen between its wings.
"Your Majesty, please look..." Meng Tian knelt on one knee, and the bronze wristband made a dull sound when it hit the gold brick.
The silk painting he presented still had the musty smell of the Dong County City God Temple. In the painting, Ying Zheng was lying in a pool of blood, surrounded by the word "longevity" written in cinnabar. The words had blurred before they had dried, like a curse written in blood.
"According to the captives, they planned to hold a ceremony to worship the heavens during the Spring Equinox..."
Ying Zheng's sneer suddenly echoed through the hall. He slashed his fingertips across the black bird totem on the silk painting with such force that it nearly tore the fabric apart. "How can a few clowns take my life?"
The emperor turned his gaze towards Su Mohui. The candlelight flickered in his eyes, reflecting a sharp insight. "Sir, did you foresee this farce?"
Su Mohui lowered her eyes, but said nothing, only feeling the subtle humming of the Qin Wang Sword in her sleeve.
The memory of thirty-three reincarnations surged in her mind. She had indeed seen similar conspiracies, but at this moment, the sharp gazes of the Xuanniao Guards were hidden in the howling cold wind outside the hall.
In the present-day Qin Dynasty, students from all prefectures and counties were studying in equal schools. They were not only scholars who read the Cangjie Canon, but also spies who spontaneously passed on intelligence. Even prisoners in prisons, thanks to the grace of the "rest and leave order," were willing to atone for their sins with military merit.
As expected, the rebels were caught in the Xuanniao Guard's net before they could spread their wings.
When Ying Chengjiao was escorted to the front of the palace, the "Eternal Life Stone" in his arms suddenly exploded, revealing the Zhao Gao Jade Jue inside which was made using evil Japanese magic.
The curse runes on the jade pendant were now crumbling bit by bit under the spell of the Great Qin Law Master, turning into ashes and dissipating under the gaze of the Xiezhi totem.
Looking at this scene, Su Mohui suddenly remembered that when she was reading "Fengzhenshi", she saw the inscription written on the bamboo slips: "Those who violate the law will be abandoned by gods and ghosts."
"Your Majesty, your servants..." Xiong Qi's words were stuck in his throat. He looked at the Xuanniao guards lined up outside the hall, and his eyes fell on the Xuanniao token on the waist of the female official Li Yue.
Memories suddenly flooded back, and my father Mi Chu's last sigh was still ringing in my ears: "If the Great Qin can accommodate a woman wielding a sword, it can also accommodate a foundation that will last for generations."
At this moment, he finally understood that those women who recited Qin seal characters in the Equality School and those figures who drew bows and held swords in the military academy had already become the strongest walls of the Qin Dynasty. So he stopped resisting and let the emperor on the high platform deal with him.
On the day of the execution of the rebels, Ying Zheng ascended the Zhangtai Palace's observatory. The bitter north wind blew away his black cloak as the emperor gazed at the parchment scroll presented by Su Mohui.
It was marked with the words "unknown kingdom" in Qin Dynasty seal script, and at the edge, a black bird totem appeared, ready to take flight. Below the stage, the battle flags of the Black Bird Guard fluttered, and the lights of the Equality Academy twinkled, illuminating the turbulent night like day.
Ying Zheng's fingertips brushed across the shimmering white silk. It was a strange paper produced by Su Mohui's system, as thin as a cicada's wing but as tough as iron.
On the map, on the "global map" drawn by Su Mohui, the names of foreign countries such as "Rome", "Egypt" and "Persia" are neatly marked in Qin seal script.
The "Eastern Ocean" to the east of the Qin Dynasty has been circled in red with cinnabar, and next to it is written "Dong County, has returned to the king's land". The red ink seems to still carry the warmth of the conquest.
The emperor's gaze suddenly stopped at the shore of the West Sea, where a totem of a giant whale with bared fangs and claws was painted, and an unknown threat was faintly revealed in the inky waves.
"Sir, you say this world is bigger than I imagined?" Ying Zheng's voice was as deep as a bell, his eyes blazing beneath his crown. "Can my cavalry really conquer all these lands?"
His fingers unconsciously stroked the edge of the map. The blank space left by Qin Mo seemed to be quietly waiting to be filled by the footsteps of the Qin soldiers.
In the upper left corner of the map, the black bird totem holds its head high above the four seas, its beak pointing in the direction of the yet-to-be-named African continent, and its wings spread as if about to break through the paper.
Su Mohui looked at the renewed fire of war in the emperor's eyes, and the memories of thirty reincarnations came flooding back like a tide.
