Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 23 Li Si
After saying goodbye to Daopeng, Xiang Bo and his party left Jiujiang County under the leadership of Daopeng's [-] trilogy.

After entering Chen County, it took five days for everyone to reach Shangcai County.

The land of Shangcai is a place with a long history. It can be traced back to the ancient ancestor Fuxi who drew hexagrams and the bank of the Cai River because yarrow was born in Caidi, so the place was called Cai.

During the Zhou Dynasty, King Wu of Zhou enfeoffed his younger brother Shudu and Cai, and established the State of Cai.

There have been many celebrities in Shangcai. Six of Confucius' 72 sage disciples were born in Caidi, and Li Si, the current Qin Guoting Wei, is also from Shangcai.

"Brother Ziche! Shall I rest in Shangcai tonight?" Xiang Bo said after entering Shangcai County.

"The city gate will be closed soon, I will rest in the city tonight!" Zi Chenan said helplessly.

"That's good! I'll let Xiang An find an inn right now! There's a restaurant in front, I'll have something to eat there later!" Hearing what Zi Chenan said, Xiang Bo immediately suggested.

********************
Zi Chenan's group of nearly a hundred people naturally attracted the attention of Shangcai County Magistrate Li Qin.

Li Qin learned from the county lieutenant that Zichenan had rushed to Xianyang to pay tribute under the order of Qin Ling, the governor of Kuaiji County, so he went to the inn where Zichenan was located.

After entering Zichenan's residence, Zichenan saluted Li Qin, and Li Qin returned the salute.

Zi Chenan knew that Li Qin was of the same family as Li Si, the lieutenant of the court, and had served as the iron official for a period of time under the commander of Xianyang Nei Shiling, and later served as the county magistrate of Shangcai County under the mediation of Li Si.Although it is said that the official position is not big, Li Si's factor has to be taken into consideration.

And Li Qin also knew about the deeds of Zi Che Nanzhi's father and son Che Wei in Xianyang. Qin Huang Yingzheng didn't say much on the surface, but after removing Wenxinhou Lu Buwei, Zi Che's family was turned into three by Yingzheng. One of the major military forces.

After the Ziche family became a major force in the military, the officials in Xianyang City also knew that Emperor Qin Yingzheng was repaying their favor at this time, so they took good care of Zi Chewei's only son, Che Nan, and everyone.

"I don't know why County Magistrate Li came here?" Zi Chenan was a little curious about Li Qin's purpose in coming here, but he had to know that none of the county magistrates in the counties that Zi Chenan passed had ever seen him.

"I heard that Captain Ziche is going to send tribute wine to Xianyang?" Li Qin began to express his intention.

"Yes!" Zi Chenan replied.

"Then I don't know if Captain Ziche wants to contribute through Dianke or through someone else?" Li Qin asked.

"Why did County Magistrate Li say that?" Zi Chenan knew what Li Qin meant, and Li Qin probably also knew the value of Huadiao wine and Zuixian wine, intending to give Li Si some credit.

"The governor of Qin County is a person without factions. If His Majesty the Emperor knew that he was quite talented and the mediation of my brother Tingwei Li Si, he must have been transferred to the wild land in the south! If the county lieutenant wanted to If we offer the wine before he is transferred to Guilin County, then we have to go another way!" Li Qin said.

"Dianke Ximen Yu is an old gentleman from the Qin State! It is exactly that the Meng family and the Bai family of this old gentleman suggested that Qin County Sheriff was transferred to Guilin County. Ximen Yu has a close relationship with the Meng and Bai families! If he delays You procrastinate! It must be too late by then!" Before Zi Chenan could speak, Li Qinyou continued.

What Li Qin said made Zi Chenan fall into deep thought. After a long time, Zi Chenan asked: "Then what is Li County Magistrate's good strategy?"

"Brother Ziche can go to Tingwei Mansion after filing a record with Dianke! My brother Li Si Li Tingwei will definitely help Brother Ziche and Governor Qin! After all, Governor Qin is a rare talent!" Li Qin said.

**************************
For Qin Ling's sake, Zi Chenan accepted Li Qin's opinion, and took Li Qin's letter and set off on the road again early the next morning.

Running wildly all the way, they passed through Yingchuan County and came to Sanchuan County.

When I arrived at Sanchuan County, it was not far from Neishi County, that is, Xianyang.

After resting for one night in Yiyang County in Sanchuan County, Zi Chenan took the customs clearance documents presented by the county guard's mansion, led Xiang Bo and a group of nearly a hundred people to pass Hangu Pass, and entered the political center of Qin State - Nei Shi county.

After entering Neishi County, a different atmosphere from the counties outside the pass came over us.

There are more or less chaos in the counties and counties outside the Hangu Pass, but all the way through the entire Neishi County, there is no chaos outside the pass, but it is very peaceful.

Xiang Yu knows that this peace will change in a few years, and Qin will also go downhill due to harsh punishment in a few years.

After passing Tongguan, Zi Chenan and the others accelerated their pace again.

Probably because they are getting closer to their hometown and family, the guards and trilogy of the Qin people in the team are not as leisurely as before, but a little nervous.

**************************
Xianyang.

Outside the city, although Zi Chenan and his party had nearly a hundred people, they did not cause any disturbance, because most of the teams entering the city were groups of more than a hundred people.These teams are either transporting food, or the guards of a certain family, or the patrolling Thousand Bull Guards.

At the city gate, Zi Chenan handed over the documents and guides to the captain of the city gate for inspection, and then under the direction of the captain of the city gate, everyone slowly entered the city.

As soon as Xiang Yu saw Xianyang City, he was overwhelmed by this big city, with a nine-foot-high city wall and an elite Qin army defending the city.Xiang Yu couldn't help sighing that if the criminal law of the Qin Dynasty were milder, Qin would not perish so quickly.

Xianyang is the center of the entire Qin State. In addition to the 12 rich people who were relocated by Emperor Qin Yingzheng, many businessmen traveled thousands of miles to traffic local specialties to Xianyang in exchange for high profits.

As the only city in Qin State where more than one million people live and work, Xianyang consumes a lot of rice grain and daily necessities every day.It also made a lot of businessmen in Guanzhong a fortune. There are many wine shops in Xianyang, and there are all kinds of fine wines from all over the place.

Under the leadership of Zi Chenan, everyone came to Dianke's office. After handing over the documents to Dianke Ximenyu, Zi Chenan immediately took Xiang Bo and others to Tingwei's mansion.

Tingwei, as the highest judicial officer in the Qin State, is in charge of the judicial lifeline of the entire Qin Dynasty. Every day, there are as many arrest documents and various cases as raindrops.Even so, Li Si still insisted on personally inspecting each case.

Li Si is a person who has a great desire for power. Although Tingwei is one of the Nine Ministers, there are also Doctor Yu Shi and the Prime Minister on top of him. Li Si handles large and small cases every day in order to be the leader of that person one day. A phase above tens of thousands of people.

Zi Chenan brought Xiang Bo and others into Tingwei's Mansion, and it happened that Li Si was processing documents in the hall.

Xiang Yu was very curious about Li Si, so he observed Li Si's data with his eyes of insight.
