The Wu Dynasty was over, and soon news of the military newspaper and the court discussion came out, which instantly caused the entire Xianyang to become restless again.

Under the urging of the emperor's decree, Ning Yingxiu, who had not yet prepared, could only set out in this cold winter, bringing various materials prepared by the court and the items rewarded by the First Emperor, his concubines and children, as well as famous scholars and gentry who defected to him, and hundreds of disciples. Under the escort of two thousand imperial guards and three thousand prisoners, he drove straight to the Western Regions in dozens of cars braved the cold wind.

Ning Wang left Beijing, but Xianyang did not calm down. As various orders from the three provinces and six ministries spread like snowflakes, the arsenals, ordnance factories, enamel factories, food factories, clothing factories, and horse training farms under the government offices immediately took action, and a large amount of grain, cloth, steel and other materials began to gather in their factories and warehouses.

The military letters from the Ministry of War were rushed to military camps in various places for 400 miles, requiring the war zones to select elite troops according to the emperor's orders to practice carefully. The Daqin Metropolitan Daily soon published military information from Dayuan, and at the same time, the disappearance of Li Shun's delegation after taking King Anxi away from King Anxi's fiancée was also disclosed.

The people of Daqin, who were already accustomed to various novel information, were soon aroused by this gossip news. People began to discuss how the princess of Susa, tens of thousands of miles away in the West, was extremely beautiful and the story behind the whole story. On the contrary, few people paid attention to the actions of Emperor Qin's preparation to summon a large army to conquer peace.

The belief that the Qin Dynasty is invincible has now been deeply rooted in people's hearts.

After the Great Qin unified the six kingdoms, it successively destroyed the Xiongnu Donghu Yuezhi and Lingnan Baiyue, conquered more than 40 tribes in the Western Regions. Now it has successively developed Japan and Korea and occupied Dayuan, and divided the princes to guard all directions, achieving the towering country where the Great Qin traversed tens of thousands of miles.

This is an unprecedented achievement in the history of China for thousands of years.

With the rapid growth of national strength and the booming economy in China, the people are no longer concerned about the title of marquis and titles based on military merits, but how to develop production and improve life, because there is no war around the Qin Dynasty. Moreover, after the reform of the military system, the cruel era of going to the battlefield to kill enemies and get merit is gone forever. Various opportunities to make money and make money are endless. On the basis of greatly relaxing the pressure of more service among the people, civilians who have gained more freedom have more time and energy to operate and produce, which has also greatly enhanced the cohesion of the people.

Although the military reform has not been fully rolled out at the moment, the charter and implementation steps of the military system reform have been widely promoted through newspapers. Now, in addition to the Western Army that has been reformed, the Northern Army and the northern counties have also begun to be implemented. Once the Korean Peninsula is conquered, the Eastern Theater Command and the Yuyang counties in Liaodong will gradually complete the reform. According to the imperial edict of the First Emperor, within two years, the national military system reform must be completed, and the five major war zones and local counties will also adopt a new military system.

The complete implementation of the new military system will completely put an end to the renewal system of the whole people. In the future, the Qin army will become a truly well-trained professional elite soldier. The change brought about is to fight wars, study, farm, work and business, and truly make the best use of people.

...

At the end of October, the northwest was already cold wind. Apart from the green pines and cypresses on the mountains, the mountains, rivers and fields were already withered and yellow.

Several carriages came along Shangjun Road from the northeast along the Shangjun Road, and headed straight for Xianyang, the capital of the Great Qin Dynasty, on the straight cement road.

Shangjun Road is one of the nine roads planned by Li Si to connect the counties and counties across the country. It starts in Xianyang and passes through Hedong, Shangdang, Handan, Shanggu, Yuyang, Youbeiping, and the counties in western Liaoning to Xiangping, where the Liaodong County Government is located.

The cold wind blew, and the carriages were rumbling. Along the way, there were endless carriages coming and going on the county road. Passengers riding horses, civilians pushing carriages, carriages driving goods, gentry dressed in bright clothes and angry horses, and disciples of the Hundred Schools with big sleeves. You can even often see official carriages with license plates from counties and counties in various places, even the three provinces and six ministries, postmen and court messengers galloping over the backs of the flags.

The cement roads not only bring stability and convenience in traffic, but also the invention of the stirrup saddle four-wheeled carriage makes travel and business travel freight convenient and fast.

Relying on these flat roads connecting big cities across the country, the rapid prosperity of commerce not only makes the counties more open and prosperous, but also the service stations and freight centers built along the way have gradually become bustling towns of all sizes.

"Husband, are we almost in Jinyang?"

On one of the most spacious four-wheeled carriages in the queue, Shui Qingrou and Chen Xu sat side by side. Chen Xu was looking through several newspapers. There were still some letters and manuscripts on the seats opposite. Some of these were folk information collected by Chen Xu along the way, and some were thanks and love letters written by local officials and celebrities. Shui Qingrou lifted the window screen and watched the increasingly prosperous traffic on the road through the glass, with some surprises on her beautiful cheeks.

"Yes, we're finally going home. We'll take a day off in Jinyang before leaving. Thank you for your hard work along the way!" Chen Xu put down the newspaper and said with a smile.

"You are really hardworking. You are not in charge of government affairs, but you can't help. Jinyang is the former Zhao Capital City, not far from Yanmen Pass..." Shui Qingrou took her eyes out of the window and looked at Chen Xu with a gentle face.

"Do you want to visit Yanmen Pass?" Chen Xu looked at Yi Wenru's beautiful wife, who was as beautiful as ever, and held her in her arms intimately.

"Yanmen Pass is a northern border gate. It was once the biggest pass that prevented the Xiongnu from invading the Central Plains. Li Mu had been stationed here for more than ten years and made great reputations, which made the Xiongnu scared him. Qingrou did not like these ordinary fights and killings before, but since he followed his husband, he realized that the Zhao State was indeed not easy, and Li Mu died miserably and wronged. After calming down over the years, he finally found that what his husband said was right. The Qin Dynasty was the one who could unify China, and the one who could achieve such great achievements was the First Emperor. Just tolerate people's minds and magnificent kings could not match the kings of the first six countries." Shui Qingrou leaned against Chen Xu's shoulder and said softly.

"Yes, Zhao State has only Lian Po, Li Mu, Pang, Zhao She, Lin Xiangru and other famous civil and military officials, but the king is too suspicious and will never become a great man. King Qian of Zhao is narrow-minded and short-sighted. Killing Zhao Mu is tantamount to destroying the Great Wall. Lian Po flees to Chu, Li Mu is trapped. As a minister, no matter how strong he is, he is just a chess piece in the hands of the king. The fall of Zhao State is actually the incompetent royal family, not because of the great Qin. If Li Mu does not die, I am afraid that the princes are still fighting each other. Although Qin and Zhao are enemies, Li Mu is still a hero of my Chinese resistance to foreign races. The weather is still good recently. Tomorrow we will visit Yanmen Pass to worship Li Mu, and then look at Yanmen Pass!"

"Husband, you just spoil me so much!" Shui Qingrou couldn't help but hug Chen Xu's waist tightly.

"Heaven and earth are the game, and sentient beings are the chess. Since we cannot break free, why not be happy to be free and free. After staying with you and Brother Yu for a long time, I have also seen through a lot. The world of Qin and all living beings have their own cause and effect. I have been trying to change before, but recently I suddenly feel a little confused and don't know whether what I did is right or wrong..."

"Why do you need to study it in depth? The true scripture of Morality says: The Tao is used in a rush and not full, but it is abyss like the root of all things. It is to slash its sharpness, resolve its confusion, be with its light, be with its dust, and be as pure as it is. We live in the world and experience ordinary things, without deliberately pursuing perfection. Everything is good to have a clear conscience. Although the Tao is not seen, it is still in my heart. I believe that my husband's confusion is only temporary, and what you do is never before. Just like the Great Qin unified China, these are just natural results. Even if you let go, the Great Qin will no longer be the Great Qin recorded in the Heavenly Book, because it has changed completely differently. This is the credit of my husband."

"It seems that I am a little bit stubborn again. Compared to you and Brother Yu, I am indeed an ordinary person without Taoism and talent. Well, when I go to Jinyang, I want to make some delicious food and continue to be a prime minister in the world. I am afraid that this immortal way will be farther and farther away from me!" Chen Xu laughed happily.

"If my husband is an ordinary person, what are we? Isn't it just a lump of grass and trees? It turns out that my husband is also implying gentleness and stupidity!"

Shui Qingrou pretended to be a little daughter and looked at Chen Xu. A shy pink rose slightly on her beautiful white cheeks, and a trace of emotion rippled in her beautiful eyes.

...

One day later, 70 miles north of Jinyang.

A team of carriages and horses walked north along Ningjin Road in a low-key manner and faced the sunset.

There are towering mountains on both sides, and the flat cement road is sandwiched between the plains and canyons and upstream along the turbulent Fen River.

"People say that Shanxi is beautiful, with beautiful land and beautiful water and fragrant grains. One finger with the left hand, one finger with the right hand, one finger with the Taihang. Standing on that high place and looking at it, look at the water of the Fen River, flowing by my small village..."

On the carriage, Chen Xu looked at the rolling Luliang Mountain in the distance through the car window, and couldn't help but hum a Shanxi song that his father liked to sing before he hit him and died.

The singing is gentle and brings a sense of excitement and desolation that only exists in the northwest.

Although Chen Xu sang stuttered and the lyrics and tunes were a bit messy, Shu Qingru's beautiful eyes flashed, and he leaned against the window and beat it gently. After Chen Xu finished singing, he pulled out the bamboo flute he carried with him to practice playing.

This trip accompanied Chen Xu alone on a long journey, traveling thousands of miles. Although he had worked hard on the road, he also saw different scenery from all over the country. He even listened to Chen Xu's talk about the Legend of the Condor Heroes in boredom, and learned many tongue twisters and more than ten songs with different styles.

It’s okay to have a story. My husband can sing songs from anywhere. This is the most surprising and surprising thing about Shui Qingrou.

The sea in Wuzhong laughed, Taiwan’s betel nut picking and Fujian’s love to win. On the way from Guangdong to Guangxi, he sang more than ten strange Yue songs with lyrics and music in one breath. Later, he met Gongsun Beiyan and Gai Nie, and sang another song as he was at peace. Now when he arrived in Taiyuan County, this equally strange song aroused the great interest of Shui Qingrou.

As a woman who is so beautiful and remembers her, Shui Qingrou asked herself that she had a good memory, but she still couldn't adapt to the change in Chen Xu's song style.

"The gentle bamboo flute is becoming more and more mature, and it is almost at the level of unity between man and nature!"

Listening to Shui Qingrou's flute sound, Chen Xu felt a little ashamed. He sang the tunes of this unfamiliar song in many places, but Shui Qingrou could actually correct it. It seems that he, a wild singer who only yelled in KTV, does not have much musical talent at all.

"Husband, don't praise me. There are still several songs along the way. I can't even remember the lyrics. That Yue language is too difficult to pronounce!" At the end of the song, Shui Qingrou shook her head with shame.

"I don't know Yue's words either, I'm just imitating it. Maybe what I sing was wrong, so why should you care..."

"Mr. Marquis, there is Langmeng County ahead. Should you and Marquis and Concubine go into the city to rest and then rush to the road?"

Just as Chen Xu was discussing music, the guard leader rode his horse to the car window to report.

"It's still early, hurry up as soon as possible. Just find a service area to settle down at sunset, so don't disturb local officials!"

Chen Xu looked at the sky and found that the sun was still high, and it was more than an hour before darkness. The road conditions were very good now, and at least he could still travel dozens of miles, so he didn't want to delay too much on the road.
