Chapter 1537 This life is enough
The First Emperor inspected the places, and the family was in turmoil.
Thousands of imperial guards escorted, more than 200 carriages, dozens of imperial court officials and ten princes set out from Xianyang in a mighty way. All the officials and people who passed by were welcomed along the way, and they were even more busy in order to take care of the thousands of people eating, drinking, defecating and urinating.
Welcoming the emperor's parade is indeed a long face, but it is also a considerable expense and huge mental pressure.
Therefore, after the parade team passed, countless county officials breathed a sigh of relief.
Even the local officials in Kuaiji and Juzhang are the same.
Now these people have finally gone to the sea of trouble.
And this is indeed the case.
Ten large ships arrived in Zhoushan, a former overseas desert island with the care of Emperor Qin Shi, and thousands of people rushed in. In an instant, half of the island was crowded with people. Not to mention the chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs on the island, even the hermit crabs on the beach were not spared. From the palace maids who went up to the First Emperor to the laundry, they all picked up shells on the beach with their sleeves. The beach where crabs and shells were licked by dogs in an instant, leaving only sand and gravel.
On the sea, a large number of fishermen began to work hard, and harpoon fishing nets started fishing for seafood. In order to satisfy the appetite of thousands of people, all the kelp under the sea was pulled away.
In three days, Emperor Shiniu's parade team changed three places to eat seafood in the Zhoushan Islands, and made these three most beautiful beaches look like a disaster. After the team left, they left behind shrimps, crabs, shells and fish bones all over the ground, becoming a feast for seabirds.
After drinking and finally satisfying his soul desire for seafood, the First Emperor took the time to receive the visiting Baihua Mountain and Fang Xiandao warlocks on Taohua Mountain.
An Qisheng was called Qiansheng by the people. He was a truly enlightened immortal. In the past, Emperor Shin-Emperor visited the East China Sea several times in order to seek immortality, but An Qisheng avoided him. However, this time the Emperor Shin-Emperor came to him in person but had to come to pay his respects. In fact, he did not visit Emperor Shin-Emperor, but Chen Xu.
The people who have attained enlightenment are not interested in the ordinary king of the First Emperor. Just like Chi Songzi Guiguzi, Guiguzi, who regards the imperial power as dirt, and is unwilling to have any contact with the emperor. Instead, they treat Chen Xu, an unpredictable immortal disciple, even Guiguzi, who has to show up to help, and An Qisheng must treat it carefully.
Chen Xu's identity is too noble, and neither secular nor foreigners should be despised or offended.
As for An Qisheng's visit, Emperor Shi was happy and no longer had the eagerness of praying for immortality before, because he had already had a more advanced helper, Chen Xu, the disciple of Taiyi Immortal Lord, and these ordinary gods from small families, were no longer looked down on.
In addition, because of Chen Xu's repeated explanations, Emperor Shin-Emperor has almost dispelled his pursuit of immortality. His mentality has calmed down over the years, and his attitude towards these people from other places has also declined a lot.
Only half an hour before and after the meeting between Emperor Qin Shi and An Qisheng, Chen Xu invited a pot of Ziyun Fairy Tea. Emperor Qin Shi promised to transfer the Zhoushan Islands to Fang Xiandao as a temple, and could build temples and allow him to recruit disciples to spread the meaning of the scriptures, but he should not interfere with the government's governance of this island and participate in secular struggles.
After receiving this promise, An Qie breathed a sigh of relief.
This was Chen Xu's promise to him. In order to prevent Fang Xiandao from being settled by Qiu Hou, he even led hundreds of Fang Xiandao disciples to join forces with officers and soldiers to suppress the thieves and bandits on the island. These situations were recorded in detail by Jiang Heng in detail in the memorial. The First Emperor also read it. Then Chen Xu also reported and explained it specifically. The First Emperor naturally would not miss Chen Xu's intentions for such a scumbag.
An Qisheng came and returned with satisfaction. In addition to him, there were also Juchao Gong Fan Zeng and his disciple Zhou Yin.
Chen Xu did not talk much about the identities of these two people with the First Emperor, but only said that Ju Chaogong was a great sage living in seclusion here. He set up plans to eliminate the thieves and bandits on the island to capture them all. He was the biggest contributor to the punishment of Zhoushan pirates this time.
Although the contribution of Zhoushan's killing hundreds of bandits was dispensable in the eyes of Emperor Shihuang, since it was Chen Xu's grand recommendation, Emperor Shihuang was very happy to receive Fan Zeng. After drinking tea and talking, he found that Fan Zeng was indeed full of knowledge. Throughout history, astronomy, geography, the Eight Trigrams of the Book of Changes, poetry, calligraphy and classics were all sensible, and his conversation was elegant and wise, and he deserved the name of a hermit and great sage, so he warmly invited him to Xianyang.
However, the invitation from the First Emperor was rejected by Fan Zeng, and instead recommended his disciple Zhou Yin.
The First Emperor of Zhou Yin was not so interested, so he agreed to let him go to the team to tour, saying that he would let the Ministry of Personnel arrange an official position properly, which made Zhou Yin overjoyed and became the biggest rebel boy. He finally completely cleansed his crimes with the blood of many fellow men, and transformed himself into the bureaucratic class of the Qin Dynasty.
Eat, drink, and travel in Zhoushan for three days. The weather gradually changed and a storm seemed to be coming, so the parade had to leave and continue to go south.
In early June, the cruise fleet escaped a storm along the coastline of central Fujian and stopped and continued southward along the central Fujian coastline. After a few days, it arrived in Ye County, where the county seat of the county government of central Fujian was located.
Although Ye County is a first-time county town with no tall walls and gates, it is also lively. The under-construction of Fujian Seaport has attracted a large number of Yue people and people from Jiangxi, Kuaiji and other places to work and earn money. At the same time, many merchants who operate tea and grow sugarcane live and trade here. The huge agglomeration effect makes Ye County very lively, no less than some lively counties in the Central Plains.
Taiwan is hundreds of miles away from Ye County, but this matter has always been very hidden, and no one knows that Chen Xu has secretly arranged two thousand people to train on it.
There are two or three huge sea boats traveling between Fujian and Wuzhong every month. In addition to shipping goods, they also purchase some local specialties and a large amount of grain in the local area. However, they do not collect goods from the people, and never communicate with too many people. They know the origin of these three ships, and the county magistrate Gao Yong, who is very clear about the origin of these three ships and warns no one to harass or destroy them.
When the First Emperor's parade arrived in central Fujian, the three ships happened to be parked in the port of central Fujian. It was not until the First Emperor's team inspected and left that they set sail and headed straight into the vast sea.
These three ships are naturally Shang Qi's fleet, and their purpose of docking here was naturally also received in advance reminder from Chen Xu.
According to Chen Xu's arrangement, it would take at least one month for the First Emperor to march south to return. This month was the space they operated. All the two thousand people trained on Taiwan Island were transported to the mainland. One thousand were led by Xiang Yu, and they put on makeup to become caravans and people in the southern counties. They slowly went to Langya by land, and the other thousand were led by Yu Wuya and took a boat to Langya. They also put on makeup to become migrant workers waiting in Langya Harbour. Until the First Emperor arrived in Langya, these people would follow the parade one after another.
One day later, Shang Qi's three large sea boats arrived in Taiwan. After Shang Qi showed Chen Xu's letter to Yu Wuya, the entire training camp jumped in a mess.
All the young men changed into shabby clothes that had been prepared, and discarded them except for the bowls, chopsticks, kettles, shoes and hats they had eaten on weekdays. Xiang Yu led a thousand young men to board the ship first. In less than an hour, three large ships set off the dock, and gradually disappeared into the vast sea with the sound of whimpering horns.
"Dad, are we going home?"
Looking at the lively and busy camp, Yu Ji brought the monkey back from the coconut forest and found that the number of people was suddenly reduced by half, and she suddenly became excited.
"No, our training has been completed. My benefactor has other tasks. The little bastard has taken people to Wuzhong and Guangling first. In a few days, I will take the rest of the people to Langya. My benefactor told you and Miss Xiang to stay in Yizhou for the time being. This place is safer. After our business is done, we will arrange a fleet to pick you up..."
After hearing this, Yu Ji was stunned and sat alone on the floor of the balcony with a lonely expression. She hugged a coconut shell mask in her arms and said with red eyes: "I don't want to stay here anymore, I want to find Brother Xiaoxu!"
"My benefactor is not available now, he has accompanied Emperor Shin-chan to the South China Sea!" Yu Wuya explained with a wry smile.
"What's the point of being a broken emperor with? It's still a bad old man. There must be a bunch of bad old men around you. Why would you take me to play?" Yu Ji pouted.
"It's naturally for your own good if you don't take you. Do you want to marry Ziying?" A graceful woman in the room walked out with a sword.
"Ziying..." Yu Ji was stunned for a moment, with a different look on her face shaking her head, "I don't marry him. I have been crying since I was a child, I can't cook delicious food, I can't even sing or dance, and I can't even swim...."
"Where is the little bully, would you like to marry him?" Xia Zijin put her skirt together and knelt down. Her usual cold face showed a rare tenderness.
"Little Overlord..." Yu Ji seemed to sway, her face was a little confused. After murmured for a long time, she looked up at Xia Zijin, "Auntie always mentions the Little Overlord in front of me, and Brother Xiang is also very nice to me, but Dad has already promised me to Brother Xiaoxu..."
"That was what your father said casually, and you were still young and ignorant at that time. What's more, let alone letting you marry Xiaobawang is what your brother Xiaoxu hopes..."
"Zi Jin, don't talk nonsense!" Yu Wuya, who was standing next to him, suddenly interrupted Xia Zijin's words.
"What my aunt said is true? Brother Xiaoxu didn't want me, so he sent me to Yizhou. Do you want me to marry Xiaobawang?" Yu Ji suddenly stood up, her little face turned pale and a little at a loss, and tears flowed down her cheeks in an instant.
"Don't listen to your aunt's nonsense. My benefactor has never said such a thing. My daughter, Yu Wuya, will marry whoever she wants, and the emperor and gods can't stop her!" Yu Wuya wiped away the tears for Yu Ji to comfort her with her sleeves.
"Hmph, I can't tell that I'm still a kind father. Your own son is left in the wilderness and no one cares about it?" Xia Zijin's eyes turned red in an instant.
"Zi Jin, my benefactor saved my life. I promised him to follow and protect him for the rest of his life. How can a man be a real man be without trust? I know you have suffered with me over the years, but don't worry, this time, my benefactor said that I would go as far as I can, go wherever I want. If you want to go back to Cuihua Peak, I will stay with you in seclusion. If you want to go to the West, I will accompany you on a boat..."
"You just say it nicely!" Xia Zijin was angry.
"No, absolutely not. If I lie, you will beat me up!"
Yu Wuya, who had just spoken with kindness and righteousness, immediately turned a little flattering, and his sword was on his back, and a bunch of black beards and beautiful trees with a young swordsman's style collapsed in an instant.
"Aunt, Brother Xiaoxu really said that I would marry Xiao Ba Wang?" Yu Ji choked and grabbed Xia Zijin's arm tightly.
Xia Zijin hesitated for a moment under Yu Wuya's eyes, which became majestic again, and shook her head slightly: "Don't think too much, your brother Xiaoxu has never said it, but Xiaobawang is indeed a very good husband. He is generous and has great martial arts skills. Moreover, you and Xiang Jing have a good relationship. You can get along well with your sister-in-law in the future. My aunt hopes you will think carefully, not to mention that you also know the identity and situation of Brother Xiaoxu. He has your aunt, the fifth princess and Meng Wan, and the Fan sisters and the big group of concubines. How should you arrange to marry him? You don't have any titles. Do you go to snatch the same man with your aunt Shui every day..."
Yu Ji's pale little face instantly showed a hint of blushing, and then he grabbed the hem of the skirt with both hands and didn't know what to do.
"Listen to my aunt, your brother Xiaoxu is indeed a strange person in the world. He can marry any woman in the world, but he is very nervous about you. You are afraid that you don't know why he sent you to Yizhou..."
"Zi Jin, don't say it!" Yu Wuya interrupted Xia Zijin's words again excitedly.
"No, Dad, after you let your aunt say that I have grown up. I want to know why Brother Xiaoxu made such arrangements. If Brother Xiaoxu said he didn't want me, I would never marry for life like Sister Xiang Jing..." Yu Ji cried and began to wipe her tears.
"Don't stop me, I know what you are thinking, but now Yu Ji has the right to know. You go to the military camp first. Let me tell you about this matter!" Xia Zijin pointed coldly at the door of the yard.
After a long time of silence, Yu Wuya nodded, gently stroked Yu Ji's head with his hand and said, "Don't worry, my father has said just now, in this world, you can marry whoever you want, there is no one to stop him, and my benefactor doesn't like you, but...ah, Zijin, you'll tell me!"
Yu Wuya found that he was right at the moment of speaking and found that he was indeed not good at comforting people, so he threw down a sentence and then walked out of the yard.
Half an hour later, on the beach.
Yu Wuya and Xia Zijin stood side by side, looking into the distance in front of the sea wind in early autumn, while Yu Ji and Xiang Jing were sitting on the wooden dock and didn't know what they were saying.
"Have you made it clear?" Yu Wuya asked with a tense face.
"How can you not explain such a simple thing clearly? Yu Ji is smarter and braver than you think. I think she will understand Chen Xu's arrangements and practices!" Xia Zijin nodded.
"It's good that, my benefactor said that they were the two of them recorded in the Book of Heaven. This kind of heavenly marriage cannot be interfered with or blocked by us!" Yu Wuya breathed a sigh of relief.
"You, you believe this!" Xia Zijin curled her lips.
"How can I not believe it? I always believe that the three heavenly books of my benefactor are taught by gods. Every time you say you don't believe it, but why do you repeatedly protect him? Master said that the Tao is now in decline, and the chaotic path of heaven is hard to find. Since we have embarked on this road of seeking the way, we can only look for opportunities in the dark. My benefactor is the opportunity for me to have a fate of immortality. Even if I have nothing to gain in my life, I will not regret or regret it, because after eating so many delicious foods and seeing so many miracles, I should be free and free in this life, and this life is enough!"
"Hmph, I'll eat it with a few delicious meals. There is no stupid guy in this world who is stupider than you!"
"Hiss~" When it comes to eating, Yu Wuya actually wiped a saliva and said with an Adam's apple, "I'm finally leaving this ghost place. I'm tired of seafood. I'm very interested in eating braised beef noodles and donkey meat. Well, there are crispy roast duck, braised elbow, cumin lamb chops, pepper steak..."
"Gudong~" A female hero next to her also swallowed her saliva.
