Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 259 The First Emperor's Eastern Tour ([-]-word chapter)

Ziying's strategy can be said to have progressed extremely smoothly. With the deliberate promotion and connivance of the government, it didn't take long for Liu Bang to "rise to fame" locally and become a household name.

Moreover, in order to prevent Liu Bang from absconding to develop his power in other places after his reputation was notorious in Pei County, Ziying secretly instructed the folks in the surrounding counties of Momen to spread Liu Bang's brilliant achievements.

Further spread Liu Bang's name more widely.

After a series of measures, Liu Bang suddenly became an existence that everyone shouted and beat like a mouse crossing the street.

There are quite a few local heroes who have said that if Liu Bang dares to show his face, they will rush to beat this pervert Liu Bang without the need for the government.

During the Qin Dynasty, basically all people worked at sunrise and rested at sunset, and some entertainment facilities such as Goulan tiles and Huaben operas in later generations have not yet been developed.

Coupled with the influence of Qin's farming and war policy, the spiritual entertainment life of the people can be said to be extremely poor.

As soon as Liu Bang, a topic of great discussion, appeared, it immediately ignited the long-suppressed gossip enthusiasm of the common people.

Facts have proved that art comes from life.

With the enthusiasm of the people in Pei County, the Liu Bang incident quickly heated up, and a series of extra stories were developed.

Why Liu Bang peeped at girls taking a bath when he was eight years old.

At the age of 12, he stole the old woman's menstrual belt.

Once blocked the widow's door.

A series of nasty events that ordinary people can think of have been placed on Liu Bang's head.

Liu Bang's reputation can be said to be extremely stinky.

As the incident continued to ferment, it was Xia Houying and Fan Kuai who had been friends with Liu Bang the most in Pei County.

Because the two had a good relationship with Liu Bang on weekdays, not only were the people around them thought that they might be as good as Long Yang like Liu Bang, but also many bad things in the fiction were arranged together with Liu Bang.

Affected by this, the post of Xia Houying's horse official was revoked, and Fan Kui's unlucky meat stall was directly smashed to pieces by some "righteous people".

It can be said that it was caused by Liu Bang's indiscriminate disaster.

"Brother, what is the situation? Why are there so many unfavorable news for Liu Ji?" In Fan Kuai's home, Xia Houying took a bite of the dog's leg and said with a depressed face: "Nowadays, there is only Liu Ji. Ji, the one who pointed at us both when we went out.

Now the two of them can be said to be in the same sympathy, and no one is willing to get together with them except each other.

"Now things are getting more and more mysterious. The names of our three brothers are now smellier than the shit in the latrine." Xia Houying continued to say indignantly:
"It's not like they didn't know Liu Ji before, and they didn't think about the possibility of these rumors?"

Fan Kui, who seemed to have a face full of flesh, was not as excited as Xia Houying.

"Can't you see such an obvious thing? It's obvious that someone is secretly promoting it. Otherwise, the big government would have stepped forward to stop it."

Fan Kuai drank a glass of wine and continued, "I heard that King Zhen is living in Pei County, why don't we go and sue He Huan.

The king of Zhen has a good reputation, and he will certainly not tolerate He Huan's first frame and slander of Liu Ji, and then tarnish his name like this. "

Fan Kui said this, but Xia Houying shook his head and sighed: "You said that someone might have pushed it secretly, but I remembered a rumor I heard in the government office.

It is said that when the king of Zhenzhen went north from Kuaiji, he was blocked and robbed by a group of people led by Liu Ji, and he also left his name.

The king of Zhen came to Pei County on this trip, precisely to catch Liu Ji.

If He Huan promoted this matter secretly, he probably got the secret consent of King Zhen. "

"What! There is such a thing." Hearing Xia Houying's words, Fan Kui was so startled that he slapped the table and stood up: "You didn't mention such an important matter earlier."

"I must hurry up and tell Liu Ji. He must not know what happened in Pei County. I'm afraid he will be killed immediately if he shows up." Fan Kui said anxiously.

When Fan Kuai said this, Xia Houying was mostly sober too.

"I can't stay here in Pei County any longer, so I will go to Liu Jiheru with my elder brother." Xia Houying said, "I'll go back and pack my things. We'll leave the city early tomorrow morning."

"Let's go now." Faced with Xia Houying's suggestion, Fan Kui said firmly: "Since it is possible that the king of Zhen secretly agreed, maybe you and I are already under the monitoring of the government. It’s impossible to be followed by the servants.”

After hearing Fan Kuai's deduction, Xia Houying's face also changed: "No wonder I always feel as if someone is following me these days.

But now that the city gate is closed, how can we get out of the city? "

"I used to go to the village to sell dogs, and it was often late when I came back. I knew there was a dog hole at the blacksmith shop in the south of the city, which could lead to the outside of the city." Fan Kui continued: "

The two of you and I will sleep here tonight, and we will leave when we are sleepy at the fifth watch. "

"it is good."

The discussion was settled, and when it was around four o'clock in the morning, the two of them climbed over the wall and left Fan Kuai's residence directly while the night was getting dark, and quietly climbed out of the city from the dog hole that Fan Kui knew about.

As soon as they left the city, the two headed towards the Mangdang Mountains.

The two of them knew Liu Bang's hiding place in Mount Mangdang.In fact, the rumors planned by Liu Bang before were also spread by the two of them.

In the evening of that day, the two of them rushed to the cave where Liu Bang temporarily rested in the mountains.

The sluts who followed Liu Bang were all natives of Pei County, so they naturally recognized these two as Liu Bang's playmates since he was a child.

The two smoothly met Liu Bang who was like a king of the mountain in the mountains.

"Why did the two virtuous brothers come here together?" Liu Bang was a Chinese character who looked to be in his thirties. Although he was not young, he didn't seem to have much stability.

Because the weather was getting hotter, he lay on the stone couch in the cave with his chest half exposed.

In the eyes of people at that time, the behavior can be said to be extremely disrespectful.

"I'm dissatisfied with elder brother, this time the two of us are here to join him, we can't stay in Pei County any longer." Xia Houying said bitterly.

After Xia Houying said this, Liu Bang was also very curious. Those who came to him were often desperate criminals. Both of them had relatively decent jobs in Pei County, so why did they go to the mountains to suffer.

"Why is this?" Liu Bang asked.

"Ah! It's hard to explain in one word." Fan Kui sighed, and then told Liu Bang about the recent changes in Pei County, as well as some guesses made by himself and Xia Houying.

Liu Bang's eyes widened in astonishment when he heard this, and his face was full of disbelief. In just these short days, he has changed from a victim image that everyone sympathizes with to a heinous pervert.

"Too much deceit!" Liu Bang hit the stone couch with a heavy fist. : "If I know who is falsely framing me, I will definitely tear him into pieces."

"Aren't you the one who robbed the town's king?" Xia Houying asked.

"Since I fled, I have been hiding in Mangdang Mountain and haven't gone anywhere. How could I rob King Zhen on his way north?" Liu Bang said bitterly.

Liu Bang had no doubts about the news that the king of Zhen met the villain. If it wasn't like this, how could the king of Tangtang Town come to Pei County in person to fight an unknown pawn like him.

Someone must be looting in Liu Bang's name, which brought him such disasters.

"However, if there is an unification today, what kind of strongman would dare to plunder wantonly." Fan Kui questioned.

"That's not necessarily the case." Xia Houying interjected, "A few days ago, I heard that the neighboring Kuaiji County issued a sea arrest document to capture the former Xiang Yan's son Xiang Liang and his grandson Xiang Chan.

I heard that Xiang Yan's death was also related to the king of Zhen. Could it be that these two wanted to kill the king of Zhen because they hated the king of Zhen for destroying Chu.

After the defeat, he inevitably exposed his true identity and pretended to be Liu Ji.

After all, you are the only one who gathers all the mountains and forests in Sishui County, and you have made a lot of publicity before. It is not surprising that Uncle Xiang Liang knows your name Liu Ji. "

Xia Houying's inference immediately made Liu Bang and Fan Kui say yes again and again.

Now that the Great Qin has just ruled the world, the victory of the soldiers is unmatched, and some bandits who dared to take the lead have already been wiped out.

Most of the rest are just like themselves, hiding in the forest in fear of being discovered by the government.

How dare you go out to plunder in an open and honest manner, let alone go to rob the king and his party who are obviously accompanied by many guards.

It must be the deeds of Xiang Liang and Xiang Bian, the remnants of Chu State, and then put the shit basin on their own heads.

If Ziying knew that because of his actions, Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, the two later rivals, would bear a grudge before they met again, maybe he would have to laugh out loud in his dreams.

"Brother, although you did not do this matter, I am afraid that as soon as you show up outside, those people who flaunt justice in the government will rush out wave after wave.

I think it is better to leave Surabaya. "Xia Houying suggested.

"But now that the world is so big, where are we going?" Liu Bang said bitterly.

If in the past all the countries stood side by side and you can't get along in one country, you can go to another country.

But now that the world is unified, it can be said that there is no king in the world, and where can he hide.

When Liu Bang said this, the three of them fell silent for a while.With the name of assassinating the king of the town, I am afraid that he will be chased and beaten by the government wherever he goes.

"We can go to Chu!" After a while, Fan Kui suddenly said: "As the saying goes, Qin destroyed the six countries, and Chu was the most innocent. The people of Chu State used deception to detain King Huai of Chu and invaded Chu State. Because of the land, he has always been hostile to Qin's rule.

It can be said that Chu has always been a weak area ruled by the Qin State, and Chu is densely covered with mountains and forests, with rivers and lakes criss-crossing, sparsely populated, and the chance of being discovered is much lower than that in the north. "

"Then let's go to Chu!" After Fan Kui finished speaking, Liu Bang gritted his teeth and said without much thought: "Sooner or later, I, Liu Ji, will come back here to avenge today's shame."

……

Not to mention how Liu Bang took his dozens of supporters south to Chudi, after arranging some things in Pei County, Ziying planned to continue north.

Although Peixian and his party failed to kill Liu Bang, it was a worthwhile trip to get two great talents, Xiao He and Cao Shen.

Next, Ziying plans to visit the counties in the north. After all, the nomads in the north have always been a knife on the head of the Central Plains dynasty in the thousands of years of Chinese civilization.

It's like a group of wolves that have been staring at the Central Plains viciously. Once the Central Plains Dynasty is weak, they will rush over and bite fiercely.

Since his rebirth, Ziying has been imagining the possibility of bringing the nomadic peoples on the grasslands under the control of the Central Plains dynasty, not to say once and for all, but at least to a certain extent to alleviate the threat of the northern nomadic peoples. It's not in vain to live again this time.

However, before Ziying could leave, he was blocked in Pei County.

Ping, the governor of Sishui County, hurried over from the county after learning that Ziying was in Pei County.

King Zhen came to the territory under his jurisdiction, but it was a bit impolite to come to pay a visit.

From Ping's mouth, Ziying got another piece of news.

It has been more than a year and a half since Ziying left Xianyang and traveled all the way to the mountains and rivers.

And for more than a year, the first emperor was not idle, but continued to tour around, looking at the land of the Great Qin.

Last year, the first emperor inspected Longxi and Beidi, and ordered the construction of roads across the country to facilitate his own tour of the world.

This year, the first emperor went on a tour again, this time the direction of the tour was the east.

According to the post report obtained by Ping, the driver of the first emperor should have entered Dang County, which is only a few hundred miles away.

Just like Heping knew that Ziying must come to pay a visit in the territory under his jurisdiction, Ziying knew that Emperor Shihuang was so close to him, if he didn't go there and left directly to the north, I'm afraid it would also become an excuse for others to criticize him for being ignorant .

I am afraid that this trip to the Northland can only be put on hold for the time being.

Knowing from Ping's mouth that the next stop of the first emperor's east tour should be Zou County, Ziying went directly north, intending to go to Zou County first and wait for the arrival of the first emperor.

Zou County is the hometown of Mencius, a representative of Confucianism, and it was also the capital of Zou State during the Warring States Period.

It was already evening when Ziying arrived in Zoucheng, so Ziying didn't intend to harass the magistrate of Zou County at this time.

Instead, he planned to find a guest house to live in first, but waited until the next day to go to the Zouxian county government.

However, because the first emperor is coming, in order to ensure the safety of the first emperor, Zou County's "security" measures can be said to have reached the point of watertight.

I found four or five guest houses in a row, but because Ziying was not a local, none of the shopkeepers dared to let Ziying stay.

At the same time, Qiu An, the county magistrate of Zou County, who was still "working overtime" in the county government office to arrange for the arrival of the first emperor, got a job offer from the guest house in the county because the first emperor would arrive in Zou county soon. Report from the owner.

"A large group of people with non-local accents came to Zou County and are looking for guesthouses in the county to live in. Their guards are extremely brave, and these people are armed with weapons!"
