Chapter 177 The villagers are so innocent

The next morning, upon hearing that the Imperial Master was going to compile a dictionary, doctors from various schools signed up enthusiastically.

Even knowing that they need to learn the pronunciation annotation method first, it can't stop everyone's enthusiasm.

Even more enthusiastic.

No other reason, just to bring honor to our ancestors and pass it down to future generations.

All those who participated in the compilation have signed their names.

What's more, you can also add a little personal touch into it.

For example, use your own famous quotes when giving examples.

Su Jinyue was surrounded and blocked by the doctors, so she decided to give up and handed the matter over to Lu Zhi to arrange. She only needed to teach the pronunciation and annotation methods to the leaders in the early stage.

The convoy moved slowly forward among the green mountains and clear waters.

From time to time, sounds of "ah, oh, yo" could be heard from the exquisite and gorgeous carriages.

Among these voices, there are old men, young men, girls, and warriors.

Of course, Daddy, who has been very competitive all his life, is not willing to be outdone.

From time to time, he would test himself when discussing government affairs with his ministers.

"Li Xiang, how do you spell 'Qian Shou'?"

Li Si stroked his beard and spoke confidently, "Qi one presses Qian, ten ohs."

Ying Zheng nodded in satisfaction and looked at the Mohist representative on the other side again.

After a few days, the ministers had become very proficient in deciphering the pronunciation.

Doctors also began to rack their brains to compile dictionaries.

There are several initials in each family. Go if you want.

The boring time of rushing on the road in the past suddenly became fulfilling.

Fusu, who did not catch up with the excitement, took advantage of the break after finishing the task of clearing the way for a few days to find Su Jinyue to seek pronunciation annotations.

"Brother, you only have one day to rest, so take a break."

Fusu's eyes sparkled. "Don't worry, Third Sister. Studying won't affect my rest. Come on, how do I disassemble this?"

Su Jinyue had no choice but to become a teacher again.

There is no time in the mountains, and the journey is slow and long.

Gongzi Gao and his men were already on their way to the border, and the Emperor's carriage was also proceeding in an orderly manner, rushing to the next stop without stopping.

As the imperial carriage approached, the entire Dongjun County fell into a state of tension.

Officials at all levels in the county were on high alert, yamen runners walked through the streets from time to time, and the countryside became more harmonious under the repeated inspections of the yamen runners.

In such a solemn atmosphere, the sudden appearance of a huge rock in the middle of the road was soon known to the county magistrate.

Puyang County Magistrate Xu Yingjie rode at full speed to the official road where the boulder was located to find out what was going on.

When he arrived, the place was surrounded by yamen runners. Not far away, there was a group of villagers gathered under a tree and were being guarded by the yamen runners.

Xu Yingjie saw the huge rock from a distance. The rock was rough and uneven, about one person tall, and fell several feet into the water channel beside the official road.

There were traces of fire on the boulder, and there were even words on it.

He leaned in for a closer look, but his eyes widened in shock at the words on it.

The characters are deeply embedded in the stone surface, and the strokes are strong, as if they were the work of gods.

"The King of Qin dies and the world collapses" are written in large characters on it.

Xu Yingjie's face changed drastically, and he was covered in cold sweat. He hurriedly took off his outer robe and covered the stone surface with it.

"Who else knows about this? Who discovered it? Bring them here."

The leading yamen runner knew the seriousness of the matter and had started searching for pedestrians as soon as he discovered it.

"Reporting to the County Magistrate, the nearby villagers who knew about this matter are already here. As for whether anyone passed by and saw this stone, we have no way of finding out."

Xu Yingjie naturally knew this, so he waved his hand to the yamen runner and asked him to quickly notify the county lieutenant to close the city gates and allow only entry but not exit.

He walked up to the group of villagers with a dejected look on his face and said with a dead heart.

"Tell us everything, don't hide anything. Tell the truth, and you might still be able to survive. Otherwise, not only you and I, but also everyone within a ten-mile radius will probably be left alive."

This is not alarmist.

You must know that when the emperor is angry, corpses will float for thousands of miles.

There are records of massacres and cremations in all dynasties.

Not to mention such a heinous act, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The villagers had never seen such a scene before. Seeing the county magistrate, who was as important as the sky in their eyes, so dejected, they were frightened and at a loss as to what to do. They spoke one after another, fearing that they had missed something.

"I heard it from Sanbengzi."

"I was going into town today and saw it when I passed by, but I didn't really look at it carefully."

……

"Shut up, everyone!"

Xu Yingjie shouted, pointing at someone casually, "You go first, come one by one."

"Yes, Your Excellency the County Magistrate."

The villagers bent over, trying to recall all the details as much as possible.

A quarter of an hour later, the clue pointed to the thin man who first saw the stone. His name was Shitou, and he often hunted in the mountains. He encountered the stone when he returned home last night.

Shitou fell to his knees with a thud, shouting that he was innocent.

"Sir, I am innocent. I am not the first one to see this stone. Yes, yes..."

He was very anxious, but he couldn't remember the other person's appearance, so he kept talking, "The wind was strong last night, and I didn't catch any wild animals, so I was going home, but I never expected to meet a crazy old man."

"It was dark, and the old man was wearing a straw hat, so I couldn't really see his face, but, but! He didn't speak like a local. Even if he imitated the locals, I could still tell."

"He's acting crazy, constantly talking about fireballs falling from the sky and the end of the Qin Dynasty..."

At this point, his tone dropped slightly, and then he suddenly raised his head as if remembering something. "There was another young man, also with an accent from another place. I met him shortly after the old man disappeared, when I was almost at the stone. He only said the word 'meteorite', and that was all!"

At this moment, another child of eight or nine years old also shouted, "I've seen that crazy old man too. He ran all the way east like a madman!"

Xu Yingjie pondered for a long time, looking for a solution.

It is obvious that this is a conspiracy by the old man and the young man. This plan is vicious and aims to shake people's hearts and make it impossible to prove anything. It is really disgusting.

But the villagers are so innocent.

To bear the wrath of His Majesty for them.

He was extremely sad and angry, but he suppressed his sorrow and gave orders to the villagers and yamen runners in front of him in a heavy voice.

"Those two are truly vicious. They committed such a heinous act and then simply ran away. If we can't find them, Your Majesty will be furious..."

He looked into the frightened and anxious eyes with a miserable expression.

"There's no other way now. Everyone must grit their teeth and tell no one about the huge rock. Also, the two of you must describe the two men's appearance and clothing as clearly as possible, and hand them over to the bailiffs to search for them."

"I just hope that this matter won't get out, so that you and I can survive."

The July sun was still scorching hot, but Xu Yingjie and the others felt cold all over.

Since the other party did this, how could they not spread it around?

The incident of the huge rock will certainly shock the world, cause panic among the people, and even trigger chaos.

I only hope that Your Majesty will receive the report in advance and spare the lives of the people here.
