...

At the time of Yin, the towering Taiyi Mountains in the east had just appeared bright white, and the entire Xianyang City had already begun to become lively.

Some people have already started to set up stalls to sell breakfast in the streets and alleys, and buses have also begun to operate. Like later generations, many low-level officials who are preparing to work in government offices in various places are wearing standard official uniforms, eating fried dough sticks, soy milk or buns at small stalls on the street, or simply wrapping spring rolls and pancakes with leaves, standing near the bus stop, eating while waiting to take the bus to work.

During the Yin hour, as a red light in the sky became brighter and brighter, a red sun jumped out of the mountains, dispelling clouds and mist, and emitting beautiful light to shine on the entire earth.

At this time, Xianyang City, including both sides of the Wei River, was already full of traffic, crowded caravans came and went, and civilians carrying baskets and loads came and went from the four gates, especially at the East Gate. People were like ants, just like a black tide, traveling across the Wei River Bridge, and two huge goods markets were formed on both sides of the Wei River. Inside the two sides of the Wei River, the goods were piled up like mountains, and countless dark men were sweating and carrying goods. In front of a bluestone iron gate house hanging on the Huaxia Money Village Bridge Branch, countless merchants in Chinese clothes were coming and going in and out to deliver the payment of goods, with withdrawals and savings. In the sound of jingling, bags of money became vouchers or certificates of deposit, and one by one, each ticket or certificate of deposit became copper coins.

Since the Weihe Bridge was repaired, the planned market has begun to be prepared for construction. The market is under the jurisdiction of the Neishifu. Although it has not been completely repaired yet, the daily transaction volume is increasing rapidly. Given the huge transaction volume of the market, Chen Xu asked Fan Caiying to set up a special bank branch in the market to facilitate merchants to trade money.

Although this business department has only been open for a few days, the daily transaction volume has exceeded one million yuan, and the money shop's considerate approach has also won praise from all merchants who come to the market for trading.

In addition to the lively markets on both sides of the bridge, a huge dock has now spontaneously formed under the bridge. A large number of cargo ships are still very lively loading and unloading goods based on the bridgehead market. Hundreds of wooden boats docked on both sides of the river bank under the bridge, and a large number of civilians are carrying cargo with their upper bodies naked and shouting horns on their shoulders.

Bathed in the warm sunshine of spring, flowers and birds singing on both sides of the Wei River, the whole Xianyang began to become active like a awakened giant.

In the busyness of merchants and civilians, brand new four-wheeled carriages came one after another in the square in front of the Chaoyi Hall in the center of Xianyang City.

In addition to the officials who attend court on weekdays, there are many more people who have never seen on weekdays. Although these characters do not appear frequently, they are all famous princes, princes, and ministers.

Plus some secret legends.

Today's court discussion may be the most special court meeting in the history of the Qin Dynasty, discussing the issue of disarmament.

Disarmament... has never been done.

From the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Period, all the vassal states were desperately developing their military power, constantly expanding their troops, and constantly building chariots. They gradually grew from the country of hundreds of chariots in the early days of the Zhou emperor to the level of thousands of chariots. As the military power gradually increased, all the vassals' ambitions became greater and greater, and they began to be ready to compete for the importance of the throne, and then fought every year for the Central Plains.

The military and military force are the common manifestation of all the princes from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Period.

Therefore, it is unimaginable to disarmament. If any adviser dares to suggest that the princes disarmament be disarmament, he will probably be stuffed into a chamber pot and suffocated to death.

Without soldiers and generals, they would be caught between the princes who were eyeing each other in all directions, and they would soon be eaten without any residue.

But this time, the disarmament was put on the court's agenda so grandly, and it has been more than half a month since Jiang Bu's early disarmament memorial, and I heard that the emperor was very cautious about this matter.

Recently, everyone is secretive about disarmament and is unwilling to discuss it.

Because the army is a taboo, no one can get involved except the emperor.

"Look, Mr. Tongwu is here!"

Before the court time was over, a large number of civil and military officials and invited princes and princes and ministers gathered at the entrance of the court hall. At this time, they were all standing on the steps and discussing in a low voice.

Several horses came along the street, and the leader was a strong man wearing a black brocade robe, a martial arts crown, a big sword, and a blood-colored cloak on his body kept rolling in the wind as the horse ran. The generals and guards around him were all covered with leather armor, tiger backs and bear waists. The thunderbolts were filled with evil spirits. The people driving around him were all avoiding them, and even the marquises and ministers on the way gave in.

The three Chehous of the Wang family have become the most incomprehensible nobles in the Qin Dynasty. None of them, even the three nobles dare not be disrespectful. They must give in respect when they meet on the road.

In front of the steps, Wang Ben shook his stirrup and dropped the horse, threw the reins to the guards beside him, then tidied up his clothes and head crown and walked towards the hall.

"Hello, Marquis Tongwu!"

"I've met Tongwuhou~"

As we walked forward, all the civil and military officials who went to court stood on both sides of the steps and bowed and greeted each other.

Several generals gathered together, including Jiang Hu, Li Xin, Jiang Bu, Zhang, Han, Zhao Tuo, Tu Sui and others. At this time, they were surrounding an old man with white hair and beard wearing a second-rank green official uniform.

The old man was Wei Liao. Although he had no military position, he was a master of military strategy. He used to be the emperor's military adviser. Before the reform of the three provinces and six ministries, he served as the national lieutenant, but did not lead troops to fight. He only provided opinions and suggestions for the emperor's military deployment and war. Later, after the reform of the three provinces and six ministries, Wei Liao was activated and was appointed as the second-rank Ministry of War to control the recruitment and merit assessment of the generals in the world for the emperor. If all generals and soldiers want to be promoted and make money, they have to look at the old man's wink.

Therefore, a group of military generals were close to Wei Liao, and the purpose was to find out the specific details of His Majesty the Emperor about this disarmament.

"Don't inquire with all your generals. I really don't know the details. Mr. Tongwu is here, so I'll welcome you quickly!"

Wei Liao was surrounded by a group of reckless men and asked dizzyly. When he saw Wang Ben coming, he immediately seemed to have seen a savior and quickly came forward to bow.

According to Wei Liao's identity and status, the only ones that deserve his respect for the entire Qin Dynasty were the emperor and Wang Jian and his son.

When Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, the first thing he had to do was not Qin Shihuang himself, but Wei Liao. This idea suddenly touched the deepest itchy nerve in Qin Shihuang's heart. He thought that he could complete the chaotic situation of unifying China and ending the melee of the princes. Therefore, he appointed Wei Liao as the State Wei and asked him for the methods of destroying the six kingdoms. Wei Liao did not disappoint the emperor and formulated a series of detailed military plans to assist the emperor in dispatching troops and finally unifying China and completing a hegemony that had never been seen in the ages.

Later legends said that Wei Liao was a disciple of Guiguzi, but this statement was too fantasy.

Because it is said that Li Si and Wang Jian are also Gui Guzi's apprentices.

But Chen Xu, Wei Liao and Li Si are not unfamiliar with them. They have eaten, drunk, quarreled, and even angrily argued. They are more familiar with Wang Jian, so they feel that this statement is very unreliable.

Guiguzi Chen Xu has also seen it. He is indeed a mysterious figure who comes and goes without a trace. He is similar to a half-immortal like Chi Songzi. Before he found out whether there are real gods in this world, Chen Xu could not rashly define gods and immortals. However, real people like Li Si, Wei Liao, and Wang Jian are flesh and blood. Chen Xu can be sure that these people are very ordinary humans. Apart from being famous and high-powered, they have not transcended the category of ordinary humans. They are existences that can be despised or even bullied by the identity of the disciples of the immortals.

"Greetings to the Marquis of Tongwu!" Wei Liao bowed to Wang Ben who was strode.

"We'll pay homage to the Marquis of Tongwu!" Li Xin, Jiang Hu, Tu Sui and other groups of generals also stood up and greeted him.

"Hello, Generals, please don't give me a gift!" Wang Ben showed a cheerful smile on his face and bowed to him.

This morning, the emperor specially invited all the kings, princes and ministers to discuss politics, and it was a matter of discussion on disarmament. It was natural for Tongwu Hou to be invited to come as the emperor's divine weapon and the pillar of the imperial army. Therefore, no one found it strange. Moreover, with Wang Ben's status, no one dared to take advantage of this group of generals except Wei Liao, including Li Xin.

As there were more and more cars and horses in the square, more and more people came to court, many of which were hidden figures that were rare in daily life. However, after they arrived, they were not in a hurry to enter the hall. Instead, they gathered in front of the gate of the Chai Hall to talk in a low voice, and from time to time they would turn their heads to look into the square.

Almost everyone knows that there is another most important person who has not appeared today.

"Look, Qinghe Hou's carriage!" A sharp-eyed official suddenly pointed at the street outside the square and shouted.

When almost everyone saw this carriage, they breathed a sigh of relief.

With the Qinghe Hou in charge of the court as a shield, the emperor asked about the disarmament, so he would have to let the Qinghe Hou be in front of him, so everyone felt relieved.

The emperor usually asks the Prime Minister if he is not determined by internal affairs, and asks the Hou of Qinghe if he is not determined by external affairs.

But at present, all the civil and military officials in the court felt that they could ask the Qinghe Hou whether it was internal or external, and they would inevitably get answers that satisfies the emperor.

The most important thing is that although Qinghehou’s answer is generally incredible, it has to be said that the effects are all excellent.

"Haha, OK, OK, good morning, sirs!"

Chen Xu got off from his luxurious four-wheel drive version of urban off-road, walked along the steps, and bowed and greeted the officials standing on both sides with a smile.

"Haha, I haven't seen each other for several months. Is it okay for the Marquis of Qinghe?" Wang Ben left a group of generals to greet him.

"I haven't seen each other for several months. The Marquis of Tongwu has become more and more heroic and agile. It seems that he must have lived a very comfortable life recently!" Chen Xu bowed and bowed.

A group of generals surrounded him and greeted him in a verbal manner. Chen Xu also returned the salute one by one. Just as someone was about to ask Chen Xu about the disarmament, a few sounds of bells came from the hall of the convention.

At the end of the Yin period, it was time for all civil and military officials to go to court, so a group of people had to scatter into the court hall, find their own positions and stand and wait. Li Sifeng Quji and Meng Yi, the three nobles, had already sat in their seats, looking at their eyes, nose, and their hearts were full of seriousness, and they ignored the officials and ministers who were coming in.
Chapter completed!
