Daqin: The first emperor came to recognize his relatives, and I greeted him with a knife

Zhao Yang also had nothing to do today, he came to the river for a walk.

From a distance, I saw an old man wandering alone by the river.

For some reason, seeing this old man, Zhao Yang felt very kind.

This is a feeling I have never felt since I came here.

Yes, Zhao Yang is not from this era.

He was an outstanding young man from Blue Star, and he came here as soon as he woke up, becoming a child.

After careful calculation, it has been a full 14 years.

Since childhood, Zhao Yang has been raised by his mother and has never met his father.

However, because of the laws of the Great Qin, civilians cannot be named Zhao.

Zhao Yang guessed that he might be the illegitimate child of a certain family.

Like all traversers, Zhao Yang had a cheat and sign-in system when he was 13 years old.

As long as you log in every day, you can get various rewards.

At this time, the light rain that had been pattering just now became heavier and heavier, and almost half of Ying Zheng's body was soaked.

This old man is walking here alone at this moment, and he is a poor man after all.

Zhao Yang's heart softened, and for some reason, he felt some sympathy for the old man, and took his own umbrella to protect him from the rain.

Facing outsiders, Ying Zheng put away his sadness and looked the young man up and down.

I saw that he was wearing coarse linen clothes, and there was a bit of kindness in his eyes.

Then Ying Zheng raised his head, and suddenly said with surprise: "Why is this umbrella made of wood? Where did it come from?"

You know, all wooden umbrellas in China are made by skilled craftsmen.

Ordinary craftsmen can't do it, and only nobles can afford wooden umbrellas.

Zhao Yang said casually, "I made this umbrella myself."

He was too bored to stay at home, so he made some new things by himself.

The structure of this wooden umbrella is also quite simple, just for fun.

Ying Zheng was a little surprised, and couldn't help being curious about the young man in front of him.

It seems that he is so young, but he has such a powerful handicraft?

At this time, Zhao Yang took the lead and said: "I'm Zhao Yang, dare to ask the old man's name?"

His mother taught him to be polite.

Ying Zheng hesitated for a moment, then said, "Zhen...it just so happens that my surname is also Zhao."

Zhao Yang was a little surprised, he didn't expect to meet his family here.

Look at this old man again, although he is wearing ordinary people's clothes, he is exceptionally clean, as if he just took them out to wear.

It seems that this old man still has some status...

Zhao Yang deliberately tilted the umbrella slightly in the direction of Ying Zheng, half of his shoulders were soaked.

When Ying Zheng discovered this small detail, his heart was moved.

The impression of this young man has improved a bit.

The two walked by the river without saying much.

After walking for a long time, the rain in the sky has slowly stopped.

Zhao Yang put away the umbrella and shook the water.

Ying Zheng looked at the umbrella again, and the hand-carved patterns on it were lifelike.

If he hadn't known the origin of this umbrella in advance, at first glance, Ying Zheng would have thought it was made by a royal court craftsman.

Therefore, Ying Zheng asked tentatively again: "Actually, your umbrella looks better than the craftsmen I've seen before."

Seeing that Zhao Yang has been praising the umbrella, it seems that he likes it very much.

"If the old man likes it, I will give it to you when I leave."

Besides, the identity of this old man seems unusual.

If a good relationship can be formed, that is also a good thing.

Ying Zheng quickly shook his head: "This umbrella is so precious, you'd better put it away carefully."

Hearing this, Zhao Yang smiled heartily.

"I still have quite a few umbrellas like this at home. Take them first. If we meet again next time, at worst, you can return them to me."

With that said, he stuffed it into his hand.

Ying Zheng's heart felt warm again, no one had treated him like this for a long time.

No matter where he is, others regard him as a high-ranking king.

Even his own prince and princess were cautious when talking to him.

Although he unified the seven kingdoms and proclaimed himself emperor, he was like the sun in the sky.

But the scorching sun scorched the heart, and both the common people and the court ministers were stung by the sun's light and heat.

The sun hangs high above the nine heavens, and it seems to have infinite scenery, but it also tastes loneliness and loneliness.

So lonely, who can know?
Ying Zheng said silently in his heart: "If she is still here, maybe she can understand me..."

More than ten years have passed, but he still misses her back then.

Still can't forget...

The two walked and came to Xianyang city.

Seeing the bustling people on the road, Ying Zheng couldn't help sighing: "Nowadays the world is stable and the people live and work in peace and contentment. If Your Majesty sees this scene, he will be pleased."

Zhao Yang glanced at the old man next to him, a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, this old man was actually a supporter of Shi Huang.

However, since he has some status, it can be justified.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Yang still expressed his thoughts.

"I think this so-called stability is just an illusion. Great Qin keeps recruiting troops, and I fear that the world will suffer from Qin for a long time."

Ying Zheng was slightly taken aback, no one had ever told him this before.

But he is the emperor of Great Qin after all, how can he tolerate someone saying that for no reason?
He immediately retorted: "Even if it is conscription, it is for the peace of the world."

Zhao Yang shook his head and said: "No matter what the reason is, it is not a good thing in the eyes of the common people. Anyway, I will leave here after a while. If it is convenient for you, it is better to leave here as soon as possible."

As a native of Qin, although winning a battle is something to be happy about.

But on the battlefield, swordsmen have no eyes.

If this military service falls on him, and he loses his life for no reason, no one is willing to change it.

When Ying Zheng heard what he said, he understood what he meant: "Could it be that you don't want to be a soldier and fight for the country?"

"Do you know that this is a great honor. If you get military merit, you can also get a title and get rid of your status as a commoner."

"Besides, if everyone in this world shirks military service, how many soldiers are willing to fight on the battlefield?"

Zhao Yang glanced at him unexpectedly, but still insisted on his opinion.

"It is indeed a good thing to be conferred with military merits, but now that compulsory conscription has begun, the current situation will soon be in turmoil if this continues."

Although the Qin State's military merit system is very good, as long as you get the enemy's head, you can be promoted to a noble, and you can even get rid of the status of a slave or a commoner.

But on the battlefield, one has to sacrifice, Zhao Yang dare not risk his life to gamble on the prosperity and wealth of that moment.

What's more, Zhao Yang is also familiar with the history of Great Qin.

Right now, the First Emperor Yingzheng's health has long since failed due to his obsession with longevity and taking elixir.

In another year or two, he will die on the east tour.

Afterwards, the eunuch Zhao Gao took control of the government and made a mess of things.

It won't be long before Daqin will perish.

To be a soldier at this time, isn't that courting death?
If his mother hadn't been too old to travel far, Zhao Yang would have left long ago.

But right now, the intensity of conscription is getting stronger and stronger.

Zhao Yang also has plans to move.

However, his words fell into Ying Zheng's ears, but he had a different thought and was a little more curious.

The current situation is turbulent?

What are the turbulent times?
