On the day of the tour, the First Emperor took Meng Jiang and set off. This was the fourth major tour in his life. Driving along the straight road from Yunyang to the north, there are 300,000 Qin troops, armed with iron horses, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger. As we drove past the residences of soldiers and civilians, we heard the sounds of mountains shouting one after another. The army came to Jiuyuan County and marched towards Yunzhong, Yanmen and Shanggu. The foreigners in the north were very shocked, especially the Huns. When they heard that the First Emperor had come to the frontier in person, they were so frightened that they moved the royal court north and retreated another three hundred miles.
The First Emperor saw that the newly built Great Wall was winding and majestic. Wherever the wall passed, there were open plains and mountains and valleys. When they encountered peaks, they went up, and when they encountered valleys, they went down. Along the way, people dug mountains and quarried stones, built kilns and burned bricks, and carried and built forts, all relying on manpower. Some are brick walls, some are stone walls, and some are earth walls. In some places, fortresses are made according to the shape of the mountains. If you listen carefully, you can hear the sounds of rolling boulders, sliding rocks, tamping of earth, supervisors' shouts, and craftsmen's groans. They are intertwined with each other, breaking the empty and mysterious silence of the mountains. Those raptors and vultures also hovered in the gray sky from time to time. They screamed and flew across the wilderness, pecking at the corpses of those who died of exhaustion, illness, or fell to death in the wilderness. I don’t know how many magnificent people there were. The peasant husbands were still newly married young men when they arrived, but after years of hard work, they have gradually turned into old men with hunched backs and haggard faces. In this way, on the vast land of North China, after several years of hard work by the Qin people, they finally built a world-famous Great Wall that spans east and west. It starts from Lintao in the west and ends in Liaodong in the east. It goes through the mountains and ridges like a The giant dragon stretches for more than ten thousand miles. It is not only a great construction project in ancient China, but also in the ancient history of the world. To this day, humans can still clearly see her beautiful appearance when they land on the moon. There is a poem praising:
And don't be wary of talking nonsense about your achievements. The battlements are so strong that their energy is like a rainbow.
People throughout the ages look up to the Qin and Han dynasties, and the Great Wall misses the ancestral dragon.
There are Yanhuang and Cathay in the east, and there is no Roman sky in the west.
From then on, China became unified, expanded the north and conquered the south to establish Yuzhong.
One day, the First Emperor came to the place where Fan Xiliang died. Someone had already arranged his body. Meng Jiang personally collected the remains in the coffin and packed them properly. The First Emperor ordered to be buried with solemn etiquette, and he kept his promise and personally wore sackcloth and mourned. Meng Jiang held the coffin and cried while being buried. After the burial, Qin Shi Huang personally delivered a memorial speech:
In the vast northern desert, there have been no traces of humans or animals since ancient times. I think that the sky is vast and the earth is far away. There is only wind, rain and snow here. It was impossible to survive in the cold weather, not to mention that there was a troubled nation called the Xiongnu. They have been invading the land here for many years, often trampling crops and plundering people and livestock. Heinous things often happen, so I have no choice but to send an army to conquer them. The men of Xiong Zhuang fought fiercely all year round, and they defeated the enemy chieftain so fiercely that he fled hastily.
Ever since the warriors of Qin arrived here, earth-shaking changes have taken place here. Now it has become an oasis and a wild place, where chickens and dogs can hear each other, and the city is upright. From then on, people lived and thrived, and cattle and sheep filled the fields. This was all the result of the efforts of the army and the people. In order to prevent the barbarians from invading again, our warriors from Qin built the Great Wall. The Great Wall is thousands of miles long. It starts from Longxi in the west and ends in Liaodong in the east. The majesty of the Great Wall is so majestic that it frightens the criminals with ulterior motives. The warriors of our Qin State worked hard and sacrificed their lives to build the Great Wall. Although they were buried in the ravines at the bottom of the valley, their resolute souls will never die. His spirit and courage will last forever, standing proudly in the world like a solid wall. I open up land to strengthen the country's prestige, but my heart is filled with many sorrows. I heard that a wise king knows the program of things, so he has a goal in governing the people. He grasped the boundaries between reward and punishment, and used a method to support his benevolence. This is exactly the generosity and grandeur of his heart. Only when he governs the people can the people be convinced. Strong power can produce strong kindness. Only by mastering this can we achieve great justice in the world. There are thousands of brave men like Fan Xiliang. Although their bones are buried in the ground, their sincerity and loyalty will never be extinguished. I am also very hurt, not to mention that he is one of my people. Now I will pour a fine wine on the grave, I hope you will come and taste it!
The First Emperor finished reading the obituary impassionedly, and the soldiers and civilians shouted long live. After Fan Xiliang was buried, Meng Jiang knelt silently in front of the grave, burning paper money for her husband, unable to bear to leave. Her sorrowful behavior infected everyone present. Even the emperor himself had to shed a few tears for her, and the ministers began to sympathize with her plight. After Meng Jiang finished mourning, he got in the car and left. Suddenly a strong wind blew, and the paper ashes and various sacrifices in front of the tomb were ruthlessly blown into the sky. Meng Jiang hurriedly shouted at the top of his lungs to stop the car. After the car stopped, she jumped out of the car desperately, held up her long skirt with her hands, and ran towards the tomb. The sand and dust quickly covered her figure. Qin Shihuang hurriedly sent people to protect him. When the dust cleared, everyone found Meng Jiang crawling on the newly built soft tomb, opening her gentle arms to hug the fragrant soil tightly. She tried her best to protect her husband's tomb. Like a mother caring for her baby, clear tears slid down her cheeks drop by drop, and Meng Jiang seemed to be asleep.
She didn't know how long it took before she opened her eyes. At this time, she found many palace maids standing around her. When someone saw that she was awake, they gently urged: "My lord, please forgive me. Your Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time. Get in the car quickly." Only then did Meng Jiang recover. She raised her head and looked at the unfathomable long sky. He silently said: God, please lay down a sharp flash to split my husband's tomb as soon as possible. I will jump in without hesitation. I want to be with him forever. But no matter how much Meng Jiang prayed, God did not do what she wished. After a while, a firm belief prompted Meng Jiang to stand up strongly. At this time, two beautiful maids came over and helped her away. Meng Jiang was reluctant to leave, looking back from time to time at the deserted wilderness that made her sad and unforgettable...
Qin Shihuang's chariot finally left. They passed through Yuyang County and Youbeiping County and arrived at Jieshi in Liaoxi County. The next day, Qin Shihuang accompanied Meng Jiang to the seaside again. They boarded the boat and went into the sea together, and saw the beautiful blue sea. The two stood on the dragon boat. In front of them, there was a table with lit incense. The wisps of green smoke were ruthlessly blown away by the sea breeze. It turned out that this was specially used for Meng Jiang to repent. Meng Jiang stood on the bow of the boat. She looked at the rough sea and couldn't calm down. After a while, Meng Jiang murmured: "If you go against it, there will be dangers, and the blue sea will sleep with the waves. I'm probably talking about now." Only then did Meng Jiang truly understand the full meaning of the four sentences in the temple view. . Suddenly, several seagulls passed by, chirping and flying into the distance. Meng Jiang stared at the seagulls intently, thinking that he would soon become those seagulls and would no longer suffer from it. Because she is going to fly to another world, and she wants everyone to know that she is just a beautiful legend.
When the First Emperor saw Meng Jiang standing there motionless, he stepped forward and said softly: "Why doesn't the beauty regret your oath?" Meng Jiang turned around and said: "Your Majesty was able to accompany the daughter of the people here and bury my husband properly. It's really great." I'm so grateful!" The First Emperor said, "It's nothing to make a beauty happy! When I saw the sea, I remembered one thing." Meng Jiang asked what he remembered. Qin Shihuang said: "A few years ago, I sent Xu Fu to the sea to look for the elixir of immortality, but he has not found it yet. If he gets it, I would like to share immortality with you!" Meng Jiang smiled and said: "Your Majesty has the same blessings and longevity as the heavens. If you don't accept the elixir, you are also an immortal. People Women don't have that blessing!" The First Emperor said, "Oh, you can't say that. If you become the queen, I will share eternal life with you." The First Emperor looked at Meng Jiang and thought hopefully: Being an emperor means being noble, and you can get whatever you want, so he stepped forward to hug Meng Jiang. Just as he was approaching Meng Jiang, Meng Jiang suddenly dodged his arm and ran towards the side of the boat. Seeing this, the First Emperor was surprised and asked, "Why is this?" Meng Jiang suddenly turned around and said, "Although I, Meng Jiang, am an insignificant folk woman, I will not marry you!" The First Emperor was stunned. Let someone go and catch her. Meng Jiang suddenly took out a dagger from his sleeve, hit himself in the throat, and shouted: "Don't come here!"
Everyone was shocked and took a step back. The First Emperor shouted: "Beauty is not allowed!" Meng Jiang said: "My husband Fan Xiliang was captured by your sergeants, and he was tortured to death. You are the murderer! I originally prepared this dagger for you. , but I didn’t kill you! Do you know why?” Meng Jiang almost roared. The First Emperor also shouted angrily: "Why?" Meng Jiang said sadly: "Because you still have humanity, and you can still make some sacrifices for the people you love. But do you know? I only die for Fan Lang. Even if you live, you dare to die for him! You have your eternal hegemony, and I have the love in my heart! You are selfish and cold! You should not take away people's love and let so many people in the world abandon their wives and children, and be separated for life and death! You are more You shouldn't let thousands of children go out to sea to seek immortality for you! How many people have you let fall for the sake of dominance? Are their lives not life? I, Meng Jiang, pretend to be happy, but I am in vain, just to bury my husband. Apart from that, I have nothing else to ask for. My husband and I once made an oath to the sea: we will be together in life and death and never be separated. I will fulfill my promise today!" After Meng Jiang finished speaking, he jumped into the sea with great sadness and indignation. Jumping into the rippling blue sea, the white waves swallowed up her jade-like soul. When people heard about her deeds, they sang:
The garden is full of flowers, and the melons and vines are green in pairs. The newlyweds were in love like the sea, but when officers and soldiers came to snatch Fan Lang. There was no news after Fan Lang left, and he leaned against the door with hatred.
In the blink of an eye, autumn came and the weather became cold, and I was sad to see Fan Langconcubine missing. Snowflakes are fluttering far away from the border, and strands of blood and tears are woven into cold clothes. Crying thousands of miles away shocked the world, crying down the length of the Great Wall.
Xu and the snake bury Fan Lang, the beauty is determined to show her strength. I would rather have the jade broken than the whole tile, clean myself and walk across the sea to scold Qin Shihuang. One love has been praised throughout the ages, and Xiao Meng Jiang is sung in the world.
After Meng Jiang jumped into the sea, the First Emperor looked at this sudden scene eagerly and could hardly believe his eyes. At this moment, there was a sudden loud noise, the waves on the sea were rough, and the white caps were billowing into the sky. The First Emperor returned to the shore with a frightened face, and the people were in shock. Suddenly someone shouted: "Look! Something is growing on the sea!" Everyone looked and saw two huge rocks rising from the water, standing on the sea. The taller one was like a monument, and the lower one was like a tomb. Short, close to each other. It is said that this is the tomb built by the Dragon King for Jiang Nu.
Although the First Emperor was angry because Meng Jiang crossed the sea, he was deeply moved by Meng Jiang's heroic act of committing suicide. Although he had many harems, he had never loved a woman. This was the first woman he had ever loved in his life. The great First Emperor suddenly burst into tears and burst into tears. It took him a long time to summon the governor of Liaoxi County and said: "Meng Jiang jumped into the sea from here. From now on, you will lead the people to fill up this sea for me." ! I want to see her..." As the saying goes: The person or thing you have hurt will definitely be an arrow that turns you back. People should be cautious! One poem sighed:
The Qin Dynasty built the Great Wall thousands of miles long, and the resentful husbands cried and the wives burst into tears.
Please look at Jiangfenlang leaning against the sea, singing softly and slowly just for the sake of a man.
