As a voice fell, heads fell on the bank of the lake.
The bright red blood fell from the executioner's sword and then flowed on the ground, soaking the ground into black and red.
Meng Qiu was sitting on the side with an indifferent expression.
As the heads fell, cheers came from the surrounding crowd.
Everyone was cheering loudly, celebrating the death of these people.
Meng Qiu raised his head and looked in the distance.
He seemed to see a person's shadow in the wind, a shadow watching him silently.
That was my old self.
Don’t pursue things in the future!
How many people in the world can always stick to their original selves?
there is none left!
After sighing like this, Meng Qiu stood up, and the color of his face changed instantly.
He smiled and finally laughed and said: "Everyone!"
"Now that these people who are just a slave to the common people have been killed by the imperial court, you can go on to get your household registration and get a new guide!"
Meng Qiu took out an imperial edict from his sleeve.
"Your Majesty has a decree, please listen to it, fellow villagers."
The people in the audience were a little confused, but they all knelt on the ground under the leadership of the village elders.
The imperial edict brought by Meng Qiu was written by Ying Zheng before.
At Chen Ke's suggestion, the imperial edict was specially written in vernacular so that many villagers could understand it.
"It's my fault that the remnants of the Six Kingdoms are feasting on the common people. I didn't kill them all."
"Today your days of suffering are over, but I still feel guilty in my heart."
"So, after all those evil thieves are killed, each family will be rewarded with two acres of fertile land."
?
For a moment, everyone fell silent, with an incredible look in their eyes.
Two acres of fertile land...
Although this number is not very large, it is a free gift!
And the emperor actually said it was his fault?
This is the First Emperor who unified the six kingdoms, the Emperor of the world!
An emperor recognized by the gods as the human emperor!
In an instant, there was a burst of crying below, and all the people, whether they had volunteered before or those who still had knots in their hearts, let go of their knots at this time.
The Qin Dynasty had just settled down, and the fish scale books of the previous six kingdoms were more or less missing.
What family doesn’t have one or two newcomers?
Even if there is only one new member of the family, the previous two acres of fertile farmland plus these two acres will already be four acres of farmland.
Four acres of land can already support a family of five or even seven people!
People can live if they have food!
And fields are the most basic guarantee for food...
What's more, not only are these four acres of fertile farmland, there are also three acres of uncultivated wasteland.
In an instant, people all over the world almost had land in their hands...
Although these properties do not belong to them and cannot be sold, what harm does it do to people at the bottom like them?
At most, it can’t be sold!
This is actually a benefit.
If it can no longer be bought and sold, then it can be passed down per capita, which means that your children and heirs will always have land!
It will not be sold in the hands of some prodigal son...
Those who want the right to own land are the upper class, the rich, and at worst the middle class.
What does it have to do with them being inferior?
But who has the most people in the world?
The lower classes are the most numerous.
Thus, the world returns to its heart.
Even the people who had children and brothers who died at the hands of Da Qin have forgotten those things today.
That was all a thing of the past!
Da Qin cannot be blamed, but the homeland of the past should be blamed.
Because it is the country that is at war!
This is a national feud!
But now that the country has been destroyed, where is the national hatred left?
The dead are dead, but the living are still alive, and they still have their own children to live on from generation to generation...
Some people in the crowd wiped away tears.
But the numbness of the past has disappeared, and they are either looking in the direction of the tomb, or looking at a certain mountain.
Although their expressions were different and they were looking in different directions, they were all thinking the same thing.
"You can rest in peace even if you are under the Nine Springs! I will take your hope and our heirs to live well!"
There is hope for strangers.
Meng Qiu stood on the high platform and looked at the people of Li. For some reason, he seemed to suddenly feel what Confucius felt back then.
Confucius' "benevolence" may be like this.
Only "benevolence" towards people in the world is "benevolence".
At this moment, Meng Qiu felt that he might have experienced the true Confucian thoughts.
"In the past, we all went the wrong way!"
If you hear the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening.
Today, even if Meng Qiu is asked to die immediately, he is willing!
Suddenly, several people in the crowd looked at each other and stood up instantly.
They looked at Meng Qiu on the stage and said, "Lord Sheriff, we know that there are still a few people hiding the remnants of the Six Kingdoms!"
"I want to report it!"
The people in the crowd seemed to have awakened at this moment. One after another, people stood up, not afraid of the reports from those forces.
They knew that if they didn't die, they would be rewarded with a blockbuster movie.
Even if you die, you will still be rewarded!
They are willing to trade their own lives for the peace of their descendants!
Meng Qiu stood on the stage, not surprised at all.
Because they are really willing to give money! Give the fields! Give me a title!
Those who reported the news were awarded the second round of the honor without dying and were given three acres of land, three acres that truly belonged to them! Give a hundred gold!
And if he dies, his direct eldest son will be awarded three rounds of honors, and all his direct descendants in the family will be given five acres of land! If there are old, young, women and children at home, each person will receive a hundred gold!
These things are enough to make these people who can't live go crazy.
for money! For your own children!
To die is to die.
Meng Qiu looked at everyone with the same serious expression: "Where are the guards?"
The armored soldier on the side took a step forward with a stern look on his face.
"exist!"
Meng Qiu stood there, his robes rustling in the wind: "Follow me and catch the traitor!"
"bump!"
The spears in the hands of many soldiers fell to the ground instantly, making fierce collision sounds.
"Obey the order!"
.........
In a mountain village
Zhang Liang sat there, listening to the boy's reply.
He didn't know why he kept listening to these messages, and even felt that he had some masochistic tendencies.
Zhang Liang's palms had been pricked by nails, and there was even some blood.
The hands as white as jade were dyed bright red.
"How can this be?"
When Zhang Liang heard about Ying Zheng's actions, he had a blank look on his face.
This shouldn't be what Ying Zheng would do.
Ying Zheng is not such a person. Doesn't he only use cruel methods?
But when did it become like this?
When this question came to his mind, he immediately thought of a person.
"Chen Ke!"
Zhang Liang gritted his teeth and said, "It's Chen Ke again!"
"If it hadn't been for Chen Ke, there would have been hope for our restoration! How could we have fallen to this point?"
When Zhang Liang heard the reports from the people who were rushing to report that seven or eight of his old friends in Han were dead, not even one out of ten was alive...
Two lines of tears fell down Zhang Liang's face.
He sat there from day to night.
At night, the stars twinkle.
He raised his head and used all he had learned throughout his life.
"The luck of the world..."
"They actually gathered in Xianyang City..."
"The Emperor's star is bright, and the Zuo star shines through the ages..."
"Guhan..."
Zhang Liang stood up and looked at the stars in the sky carefully, as if he wanted to overturn his own thoughts.
He didn't believe it and didn't want to believe it.
"Guhan..."
Zhang Liang murmured to himself, looking at the dark night and the twinkling stars.
Suddenly, there was a wry smile.
"There is no hope of restoring Korea!"
The sound fell to the ground, and Zhang Liang fell straight back.
When the boy on the side saw this, he was so panicked that he lost his mind.
"Come on, Zhang San, come on, come on!"
...........
Xianyang City
Ying Zheng had gotten up before dawn. After packing up, he went directly to the nearby garden for the emperor to hunt.
At this time, Chen Ke was already waiting there.
He lowered his head, put his hands in his wide sleeves, and nodded his head little by little.
When Ying Zheng walked to his side, he was still in this posture.
Ying Zheng walked in and took a look, burst out laughing.
This guy Chen Ke actually fell asleep standing up!
That little bit of head is obviously dozing off!
Ying Zheng directly tapped Chen Ke's forehead with one finger, and Chen Ke woke up immediately.
Chen Ke looked at Ying Zheng in front of him and immediately shouted: "I'm sorry, your majesty forgives me."
Ying Zheng smiled and shook his head, walking forward carelessly: "Let's go."
"But your kid sleeping standing up really surprised me."
"Did you not sleep well last night?"
"Do you want to be honest like Li Si and ask me to send some people from Heibingtai to monitor you?"
Chen Ke smiled awkwardly: "Your Majesty, I went to bed early last night and was very good."
"It's just that it's summer, and it's easy to doze off."
Chen Ke's expression looked serious.
"A great sage once said: Spring is tired, summer is sleepy, and autumn is tired——"
Before he finished speaking, Ying Zheng turned his head and looked at Chen Ke with a strange expression: "What about winter?"
"I haven't seen you feel more energetic in winter, either?"
Chen Ke said seriously: "Spring is tired, summer is sleepy, autumn is tired, and you hibernate."
Ying Zheng was amused and scolded with a smile: "You are the only one who is wrong."
"Okay, have you brought over the repeating crossbow you mentioned?"
When it came time to talk about business, Chen Ke's face turned serious.
He looked at Ying Zheng in front of him and said, "Your Majesty, Lian Nu has been brought here."
"There are two types of repeated crossbows invented by the Mohists and Gongshujia together."
"One of them is small and exquisite, and can be held in the hand as a hand crossbow."
"The other type is a siege crossbow."
Chen Ke exhaled. When he saw the siege crossbow, he was actually a little shocked.
He didn't expect that this thing could be taken out now...
It was obvious that he just said it casually.
And the power of the siege crossbow is really scary.
Of course, no matter how scary a siege crossbow is, it is still a cold weapon and will not be stronger than explosives.
But can explosives be used at all times?
What's more, today's explosives have not been successfully developed and cannot be used.
With this thought in mind, Chen Ke raised his head, looked at Ying Zheng and said, "Your Majesty, I have already brought both types of crossbows here."
"You can try it out in this garden."
Ying Zheng nodded slightly, but actually he didn't have high hopes for the Lian Nu.
However, when the people below brought up the serial crossbow, there was also a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
"Is this the Liannu?"
He picked it up, while Chen Ke stood aside, teaching Ying Zheng how to use the repeating crossbow.
After Ying Zheng learned it, he aimed at a bird flying by in the sky.
"Whoosh"
There was a soft sound, and an arrow flew out from the repeating crossbow in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, Ying Zheng fired the crossbow continuously, and four or five arrows flew out one after another in an instant!
In an instant, the bird in the sky screamed and then fell to the ground.
Seeing such a situation, Ying Zheng swallowed subconsciously and glanced at the repeating crossbow in his hand.
"this......"
"It is indeed a divine thing!"
“It’s so useful!”
