It is said that the general trend of the world is that if it is divided for a long time, it will be united, and if it is united for a long time, it will be divided. However, this saying was not necessarily useful when it was applied to the early Qin Dynasty.
Since the Zhou emperor besieged the princes, the Zhou royal family moved southward, and the world was in chaos from 587 BC until the first year of the Zhongyuan Dynasty, when Qin Shihuang unified the world.
But the world had been divided for too long, and the First Emperor was too hasty in unifying the world. He also abolished the feudal system that had been handed down for thousands of years and replaced it with the county system, which made the remaining nobles of the Six Kingdoms extremely resentful.
For example, there was a Korean aristocratic disciple named Zhang Liang who hated the First Emperor to the extreme.
Zhang Liang's family has been the prime minister of South Korea for five consecutive generations, and Zhang Liang also regards himself as the future prime minister of South Korea. It's a pity that when Qin destroyed Han, Zhang Liang was still young, and before he had time to display his ambitions in Korea, Korea was destroyed by King Qin.
Zhang Liang hated this very much. He believed that if he were the prime minister of South Korea, he would definitely be able to change South Korea's weakening situation, so he determined to spend all his wealth to revive South Korea.
Just how to do it, Zhang Liang never had a good idea. He decided to travel around the world, learning about major events in the world, and thinking about how to overthrow the Qin Dynasty and revive Korea.
Zhang Liang met Lord Canghai near Dongyi, and after discussing with him, he believed that the rule of the Qin Dynasty was completely maintained by Qin Shihuang alone. As long as Qin Shihuang could be killed, the Qin State could be destroyed.
It's just that assassinating Qin Shihuang has always been an extremely difficult task. Jing Ke and Gao Jianli had failed before. After that, Qin Shihuang also protected his own safety very strictly, and it was difficult for Zhang Liang to find an opportunity to assassinate him.
In the second year of the Chinese Yuan Dynasty, the First Emperor enshrined Zen in Mount Tai, and ordered Xu Fu and others to take three thousand boys and girls to explore overseas fairy mountains. At the same time, in order to stabilize the world, he led tens of thousands of troops to patrol the world and wipe out the remnants of the Six Kingdoms.
In May of the same year, he learned that the First Emperor might pass by Huaiyin County, so Zhang Liang rushed to Huaiyin in advance to look for possible opportunities.
Zhang Liang wandered around Huaiyin County for several days. He had not yet heard the news about the arrival of the First Emperor. However, he learned that there was a strong man in Huaiyin County who was eight feet tall and extremely strong. He could grab the tail of a running ox and pull the whole animal Stop it.
Hundreds of kilograms of stone mounds seemed like nothing in his hands, and he could play with them as casually as if he was juggling.
Zhang Liang decided to find the strong man and then use him as the core to formulate a plan to assassinate Qin Shihuang. However, when Zhang Liang came to the strong man's home, he learned that the strong man was not at home and did not know when he would return.
So Zhang Liang simply waited in a teahouse in front of his house for three days.
On this day, Zhang Liang thought about the three miserable days without seeing anyone. He also thought about the difficulty of avenging his family and the difficulty of destroying Qin.
He had squandered all his family wealth in order to take revenge, so that even after his brother died, he was unable to bury his brother with gold, silver and other items. He couldn't help but feel sad and lamented in his heart.
"When a man has a problem, he can just speak up, so why should he sigh?" Suddenly, Zhang Liang heard someone say this.
He turned around and saw that he was a man in plain clothes, tall and serious in appearance, kind but without losing his bearing. He couldn't help but feel a little good in his heart, so he smiled and said, "I have troubles at home, and I have to wait for my friends to come, so I just sighed." .”
"If the master you are waiting for is the owner of that family, I can't imagine that this person will be back within an hour!" the other party said with a smile.
"Why do you see this, sir?" Zhang Liang asked in surprise, "Do you know the owner of this family?"
"I'm just sending someone to Xianyang. I'm passing through here. How can I know the owner of this family?" The man laughed and said, "I just saw a Qin official checking the household registration not far away. If the head of the household doesn't return within an hour, I was afraid of causing trouble, so I just said that!"
"That's it!" Zhang Liang marveled at the other party's careful observation, so he took the initiative to introduce himself, "I am Zhang Liang, father of Yingchuan City, Korean. May I ask for your name."
"I don't dare, I am Xiao He, from Fengyi, Pei County!" This person also introduced.
"It turns out he is from Chu!" Zhang Liang said.
"No, there is no Chu State in the world. I am now Xiao He from Qin!" Xiao He said.
"Hmph!" When Zhang Liang heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little angry and said, "The Kingdom of Chu will only be destroyed for a few years. Xiang Yan, the general of the Chu Kingdom, once swore that although Chu has three households, the Qin will be destroyed by Chu. Could it be that Brother Xiao He has forgotten his mother country?" ?"
"Don't say this again!" Xiao He hurriedly stopped him and said, "Now that the world has been settled, the First Emperor has conquered the world, and the world is at peace, even if Brother Zhang Liang has the ambition to conquer the clouds, he cannot say it clearly, otherwise it will definitely lead to disaster."
"This is wrong!" Zhang Liang said, "Although Emperor Qin forcibly subdued the world, the people of the world have not yet surrendered, and the survivors of the six countries also cherish their homeland. The Emperor of Qin has great ambitions but few talents, and arrogantly calls himself the First Emperor, thinking that his merits have been overshadowed. Sovereigns and Five Emperors."
"But I don't know that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors ruled the world with their own virtues. But Emperor Qin was powerful but without virtue. On the one hand, he mobilized hundreds of thousands of people to build the Afang Palace, and on the other hand, he mobilized hundreds of thousands of people to build the imperial mausoleum. Now he has I want to connect the Great Walls of Qin, Zhao, and Yan together to build a Great Wall of ten thousand miles."
"If this city is opened, it will cost millions of people. The world has been subdued by Qin's strong military and has already suffered enough from the war. The Qin Emperor does not cultivate life and health with the people, but wants to use the people's power again to make his mother lose The wife lost her husband, the child lost his father. Among millions of people, only one or two can return. If things go on like this, as long as Qin Shihuang dies, how can the world not rebel?"
Hearing Zhang Liang's words, Xiao He was stunned, and finally sighed and said, "I have never heard these words from Brother Zhang Liang, and please don't say them to me again."
"Haha, I thought Brother Xiao was a genius in the world, but I didn't expect him to be so timid and afraid of getting into trouble. I, Zhang Liang, don't have that much to fear. I am the Prime Minister of South Korea and should die for South Korea, so why should I be afraid of death! "Zhang Liang smiled boldly, but Xiao He fell silent.
This reaction made Zhang Liang quite bored. He began to scan the surrounding streets, and then he saw a ragged young man walking from the street. He immediately smiled and asked, "Brother Xiao, can you tell where this young man comes from?" ?”
"This man is a commoner, what's there to see?" Xiao He said indifferently.
"No, I think this man must be the son of a noble prince!" Zhang Liang said with a smile, "Look at this man, although his clothes are ragged, but he has extraordinary bearing. Especially when you see that he has a sword in his waist, he must be equipped with a sword when he walks. This is the trip of the princes and grandsons of Chu State."
"So I conclude that this person must be a descendant of the nobles of the Chu State, and he hates the Qin State as much as we do. In the future, the world will be in chaos, and he will be like-minded with us to restore the six kingdoms!"
While the two were talking, something suddenly happened to the young man. At some point, a butcher blocked the young man's way.
This butcher lady was tall and tall, with a body the size of three young men, but she humiliated the young man and said, "Although you are tall and like to wear swords on your body and think you are a noble in the past, I know that you are actually a coward."
After hearing this, the young man did not differentiate with him, but wanted to take a detour and leave, but the butcher always stood in front of the young man.
At this time, many pedestrians had gathered around to watch the fun. The butcher felt a little proud when he saw the crowd, so he continued, "Don't think you can deny this without speaking. Don't you like to wear swords on your body?" If you really have the guts, pierce my stomach with your sword. If you don't have the guts, slip under my crotch."
The young man looked at the butcher's figure carefully, then leaned down and actually got under the butcher's crotch. Everyone burst into laughter, and the sound was loud.
"He is really a hero!" The streets were full of jokes, but Zhang Liang exclaimed, "It has become a great cause for a hero to cherish his own body. I saw that even though he got under other people's crotches, his expression did not change, which is extremely difficult. This is very difficult." If a young man can endure the humiliation of his crotch, he will become a great person in the future!"
"He is indeed a hero, but he seems a little unhuman..." Xiao He praised him at first, but was a little worried, but Zhang Liang liked this young man very much, and went to the street to pull the young man over and treat him to wine and food. .
"My Excellency, Han Xin, thank you for the food and wine, Mr. Zhang!" The young Han Xin was not polite. Seeing Zhang Liang treat him to wine and food, he started to eat immediately, and at the same time said, "The kindness I received today will be repaid in the future."
"How do you plan to repay me?" Zhang Liang asked curiously.
"How about sending Mr. to a county in the future?" Young Han Xin said.
"It's a good deal for one county, hahaha!" Zhang Liang was very happy, and then took Xiao He's hand and asked, "Then what are you going to give Mr. Xiao He in return in the future?"
"He has no kindness to me!" The young Han Xin said with a smile, "But I, Han Xin, will repay the kindness I have. If Mr. Xiao is willing to help me gain fame in the future, then what if I give him a county!"
"Giving a gift to a county, you are so brave, drink this cup to the full!" Zhang Liang laughed and everyone drank.
"Han Xin, are you willing to revive the Six Kingdoms?" Zhang Liang asked directly after drinking.
"The six countries have not given me any benefits, why should I revive the six countries?" Han Xin asked, Zhang Liang was speechless.
At this moment, the strong man Zhang Liang had been waiting for for a long time appeared at the door of his house. Zhang Liang apologized and went directly.
"Master Xiao, the food has been bought, we can set off!" Suddenly, a man in his 30s walked out of the street corner and said to Xiao He from a distance.
"Liu Tingzhang, wait a moment, I'll be here soon!" Xiao He said with a smile, put down the wine money, bowed to Han Xin, and left. Han Xin left after eating all the food and wine on the table.
"Xiao Daguan ate happily by himself, but he didn't know that I, Liu Ji, was also very hungry at this time." Xiao He and the pavilion chief Liu Ji returned together, and Liu Ji said with a smile.
"There is indeed an interesting story!" Xiao He mentioned the encounter with Zhang Liang and Han Xin, but never mentioned Zhang Liang's rebellious remarks.
"This young man has such a arrogant tone. He will send him to the county seat just after he opens his mouth!" Liu Ji burst out laughing after hearing this, "But Officer Xiao is not generous enough. If I, Liu Ji, were sitting there just now, I would definitely promise to make this young man a marquis." , I can’t let him give me a piece of land again, hahahaha!”
As the saying goes, heroes cherish heroes, and talents meet talents. The three heroes of the early Han Dynasty met today, but they did not expect to determine the ownership of the world more than ten years later.
