Mrs. Qin Xiangguo

Chapter 138 133

133

In 238 BC, Han Wangran, who was inferior to Qin, died of illness and died in Xianyang.

The state of Qin sent him back to Xinzheng, South Korea for burial.

In the same year, the Guanzhong Canal project, which had been under construction for many years, finally came to an end.The east and west are connected by Jingshui and Luoshui to moisten the people. In the Guanzhong area, which is severely flooded, the water damage and drought have been greatly alleviated, the soil quality has been improved, and a huge water and soil irrigation network has been created.

A project that nourishes the people.

Therefore, even though Zheng Guo's entry into Qin was meant to be an intercourse, Qin Wangzheng still named him Zheng Guoqu.

At the same time, due to the great consumption of the canal for many years, the monarch ordered a three-year tax reduction.

However, due to the expansion of irrigated areas and the increase of arable soil, Qin's grain production this year is still nearly one-third higher than in previous years.

The changes in numbers are insignificant, but what really makes Zhao Weizhen feel the changes is the situation around him.

In the summer, she went to Xiayang, a feudal city, to take care of local affairs.

On the way back, I only heard the hustle and bustle along the official road, and lifted the curtain of the carriage to see that there was a small post station a few hundred meters away for travelers to rest.

Immediately arrived in Xianyang, this post station is also very lively: not only there are vehicles stopping, but also many small stalls and hawkers near the post station.Under the set up stalls, many people dressed as scholars sat and talked, and it was very lively.

It's not yet the capital, but there are so many people on the side of the official road, it can be seen that the lives of ordinary people have indeed improved.

Zhao Weizhen couldn't help but put a smile on his face.

"Ma'am." Seeing this, Wei Xing asked, "Do you want to go down and have a look?"

"never mind."

Zhao Weizhen shook his head: "The carriage is not like an ordinary carriage, nor is it dressed like a commoner, so please don't cause trouble."

When she finished her words, she saw several women with black cloth scarves on their heads coming out of the post house in twos and threes.

Several women are old and young, all dressed as women.They either carried bamboo baskets on their backs, or carried baskets, which contained many fresh fruits and vegetables, eggs and meat, and they wanted to go outside the official road.

"Wei Xing." Zhao Weizhen noticed several women and said in a low voice.

"clear."

Wei Xing understood immediately, and when several women passed by the carriage, he immediately put on a smile: "Good families, what are you doing together?"

In all fairness, Wei Xing is good-looking, smiling and polite.

What woman doesn't love a handsome guy who strikes up a conversation with a smile?

In particular, he was dressed cleanly, and the carriage was brand new and luxurious. The commoners naturally understood that he was a servant of a rich family. The women laughed together before they answered.

Finally, an older middle-aged woman said generously: "Return to your nobleman, we are going to worship the temple to pray for a child."

Wei Xing asked curiously: "There are so many people going, I'm afraid it's very accurate."

Middle-aged woman: "Yes, very accurate?"

Wei Xing: "Which immortal are you worshiping?"

The middle-aged woman pursed her lips and laughed again: "It's not a fairy! It's Lord Xia Yang from Xianyang."

Wei Xing was taken aback: "Huh?"

The middle-aged woman thought that he didn't understand, and patiently explained: "I heard from the gentleman from the capital that Xia Yangjun is a goddess sent from the sky, not only to assist King Qin, but also gave birth to two children in one breath A lively doll. After my neighbor’s house worshiped me a few years ago, I will have it in less than three months!"

"Yes."

Another young woman said with emotion: "I also hope that the goddess can show her supernatural powers more. It is said that the King of Qin only has one son now. How can this be possible? How many more children!"

"That's it!"

"It's best for the queen to give birth to two in the next child, just like Xia Yangjun."

"It's best to have a daughter, since I have a son anyway!"

"It's King Qin, how can there be only one child?"

Wei Xing: "..."

Zhao Weizhen: "..."

Wei Xing was stunned and sent several women away chatting and laughing: "Husband, madam, you have already built a temple!"

Zhao Weizhen, who was in the car, held his forehead unbearably.

People build temples while they are still alive, do they want to curse her to die early!

And if she thinks that she has meritorious service in Qin Dynasty, it's fine if she is a good person who builds a temple, but in the end the Songzi Temple was built.

In this era, the heavens and the earth are so big, no matter what you say, you are not as big as having a child - so what if you Qin Wangzheng destroyed Han and Zhao, didn't you only have one baby?

What's the matter!

This incident really shocked Zhao Weizhen.

She was so shocked that when she returned to Xianyang, went to meet King Qin, and saw the handsome and majestic face of the young monarch, her mind was still full of the phrase "how can there be only one baby".

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows: "Madam went back to Fengyi, but what happened?"

Zhao Weizhen said dumbfoundedly: "It's just an interesting story."

As she spoke, she briefly described to King Qin the matter of sending off the child to the temple in front of the official road.

And Ying Zheng...

After the young monarch listened to it, he was silent for a long time, and he also choked out a sentence: "People are still alive, so it's not good to build a temple?"

You see, Zhao Weizhen thinks so too!

She didn't let go of the smile in Ying Zheng's phoenix eyes.

"The king is still laughing at me!" Zhao Weizhen said angrily.

"The widow just thinks, cough, um," Ying Zheng maintained a serious expression, "If Madam really has the ability to give birth, then there are so many couples in Qin who want children, I am afraid that they will be too busy overnight."

Zhao Weizhen: "..."

Forgive her!The court, the school, and the home are not enough to keep going, so you have to work overtime?

The donkeys in the production team don’t even carry them for this purpose!

In fact, that is, Lu Buwei still has a conscience, and he didn't engage in widowed parenting. In addition, Xianyang's industry and caravans are jointly managed by him and Zhao Weizhen.Otherwise, with so many jobs, ten Zhao Weizhen could be exhausted to death.

What's more, the matter of setting up the temple is funny, so Zhao Weizhen can't help but feel a little worried.

"Your Majesty." After laughing, Zhao Weizhen collected his expression: "This matter looks small, but it is actually very troublesome. If this happened during the period of the former king, what would happen if everyone in Qin State worshiped other temples instead of King Qin?"

"This is not another courtier."

Ying Zheng corrected him earnestly, "It's Madam."

"Because it's me, it's even worse." Zhao Weizhen emphasized his tone: "I can speak directly to the king, but the king doesn't care. The king trusts me as such, but what if I do something that is unworthy of his trust? Furthermore, if it is not me, but other officials, if they are smart enough to see that the people have their own temples, I am afraid they will pack up and prepare to run away."

Lord Xinling of the State of Wei was feared by the King of Wei because of his high prestige.General Lian Po has a great reputation and military exploits, so Zhao Wang changed his generals for the second time.

Big tree attracts wind, very simple reason.

Today Yingzheng believes in Zhao Weizhen and will not take it to heart.But the reason for his trust is that he knows that Zhao Weizhen has a clear view of power.

Because of this, she could not live up to this trust.

Not only for King Qin, but also for herself.

"I have given orders not to build my Songzi Temple." Zhao Weizhen said, "I came to give the order, which is justified."

The main thing is that she is indeed alive!It is really inappropriate!

"But this is human nature." Ying Zheng still had a smile in his eyes: "Qin also needs people."

She also thought about this.

Don't you want to have a baby? It's useless to beg her, why don't you work harder yourself!

"In my opinion, just pick a day when the farming is off, preferably after the autumn harvest." Zhao Weizhen has always been quick to respond when thinking about it: "Then please write some touching stories from Confucian scholars in Qin, what kind of poor scholars Let Miss Xiangguo take a fancy to it. The arrogance and prejudice of the nobleman and the poor girl all happened on that day. That day is the day when lovers finally get married. When the story spreads, everyone will be busy on this festival. Man was created with love!"

In the 21st century, any festival can be celebrated as Valentine's Day by lovers. There was no Valentine's Day in the pre-Qin period, so we made one up now.

Zhao Weizhen often speaks surprisingly, and Ying Zheng has long been used to it.He patiently listened to Zhao Weizhen's whimsical thoughts, and couldn't help laughing: "My wife usually doesn't show her mountains and dews, and I didn't expect to make up such a legendary story. But..."

"but?"

"It's fine for Madam to do it." Ying Zheng said seriously, "I don't want to be such a big villain."

"Your majesty still doesn't want to be a villain?" Zhao Weizhen couldn't help but laugh: "For the countries in the Central Plains, everyone in the Qin Kingdom is a big villain."

Ying Zheng sneered a few times.

Although they are all laughs, the friendship contained in them is different.

"The villain is short-tempered," Ying Zheng said, "if you don't understand it, they don't need to understand it."

Zhao Weizhen also put away his smile completely.

After all the jokes, it's time to talk about business.

In the past year, although the Qin State stood still, disputes between the DPRK and China were common.

The main thing is to discuss who to fight next.

Li Si and other civil servants advocated attacking Wei, the reason is very straightforward: Wei State is weak and adjacent to Chu State.For the current state of Qin, only the state of Chu can fight for it, which is a difficult bone.

But Yingzheng has always insisted on attacking Yan.

Zhao Weizhen knew the reason.

The Qin State in history was also the first to attack the Yan State, but at that time, Jing Ke assassinated Qin first, and the King of Qin was furious, and sent troops to attack Yan in retaliation.

Now it has not yet reached the point where Prince Dan invites Jing Ke, Ying Zheng still insists on destroying Yan first.

Letting Yan Dan go on the front foot, and sending troops on the back foot, it is inevitable that people will think that maybe Yan Dan did something inappropriate in Xianyang that angered Qin Wangzheng.

In this way, when Yan Dan returns to the country, with such a short-sighted father, it is hard to guarantee that he will not be in danger of his life.

"Kings."

Zhao Weizhen euphemistically mentioned: "Now the six countries, except Qi and Chu, one is far away, and the other has spare power. In fact, it is the same for the remaining two countries to attack first."

Ying Zheng turned his head.

The emotion in his phoenix eyes quickly settled, the smile dissipated, and what was left was only cold firmness and calmness.

"He will hate widows."

Needless to say, Zhao Weizhen also knows that the "he" in this sentence refers to Yandan.

There was no joy or anger on Ying Zheng's face: "Ma'am is right, he has been impulsive all his life, and he has paid attention to a 'righteousness'. It is impossible to say that he will do something rash for this so-called 'righteousness'. Dan can't stay. If that is the case, I will hate it." It's also hate, and late hate is also hate, so it's better to let him see it as soon as possible."

Zhao Weizhen closed his eyes silently.

The young man in front of him has been keen and intelligent since he was a child, especially when looking at people.Ying Zheng understands the relationship between people too well, so he can trust Zhao Weizhen, and because of this, he only needs to talk to Yan Dan after a few words to understand what kind of situation the other party is in.

It's useless to say more, he has already made a choice.

"I understand."

Zhao Weizhen raised his hand and saluted slowly: "Since the king insists, there is no reason for the ministers not to obey. If the king wants to attack Yan, the ministers and the prime minister will definitely support and persuade the courtiers."
