Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 128 The Central Plains in Turmoil due to the Order of Seeking Talents 】

Because of the incompleteness of the three princes and nine ministers of the Great Qin Empire, Hu Hai had no one available in the vast court, so he had no choice but to follow the example of Duke Xiao and issue a decree for seeking talents to the world.

This was a decision made by the ruling and opposition parties of the Great Qin Empire, and one of the long-term strategies discussed by Qin Ershi Hu Hai and Wei Liao and others for a long time.

……

As soon as the order of seeking talents came out, it was immediately regarded by the Great Qin court as the only way to revive the Great Qin Empire.The government moved quickly, and the special envoy set off overnight.

……

Xianyang.

……

"drive--"

……

The uniform sound of horseshoes came galloping.This is the unrivaled riding skill of the elite of the Great Qin Empire - the Iron Eagle, and it can be kept uniform at all times.

Wang Yuanyao, the guard of the east gate of Xianyang City, watched the iron cavalry sweeping towards him, and immediately raised his sword and shouted: "Pedestrians get out of the way, hurry up and get out of the city!"

The traveling crowd seemed to have long been used to it, and they quickly stepped aside.The hoofbeats of the horses were frantic, and one fast black horse flew out of the city gate and crossed the suspension bridge.

……

Situations like this happen once or twice a day in Xianyang, and over the years, even ignorant teenagers know how to avoid them.

Qin law stipulates: special envoys ride fast horses, Jinling arrows envoys go out, all pedestrians will avoid and give way, and those who dare to block will be killed without mercy——

One after another, special envoys on fast horses flew out of the city gate. People were shocked to find that more than fifty special envoys on fast horses flew out of the east gate in an endless stream within half an hour.

The occurrence of this scene made the originally dazed Xianyang people look even more worried.

The Great Qin established the country with force, and the first emperor annexed the six kingdoms of Shandong with force.During the five hundred years since the rise of the Qin Dynasty, it can be said that wars broke out every year and never stopped.

After hundreds of years of experience, the old Qin people are very familiar with war, but they are also very sensitive.

When they saw the unusual fast horse of the envoy, they immediately realized that the danger was approaching them again, and the gathered people began to disperse silently.

During the years of the Great Qin Empire, the special envoy Kuai Ma has always made them proud.Because the military power of the Great Qin Empire is the best in the world, and His Majesty the First Emperor is wise and martial, with a talent from heaven.

The tiger and wolf division of the Great Qin Empire is invincible in all battles.Only Great Qin has ever annexed other countries, and no army from other countries has ever set foot on the land of the Great Qin Empire.

However, a year ago, this pride was crushed by Zhou Wen's army.Hundreds of thousands of mobs brazenly broke through Hangu Pass and approached the south bank of Yushui.

It is only a short distance away from Xianyang, the capital of the emperor. If Zhang Han, the Lord of Long, had not been born in the sky and defeated the Chu army on the south bank of Xishui, perhaps Xianyang would have already been bleeding into rivers.

From that time on, the Great Qin Empire, once proud of being invincible in all battles and sweeping thousands of troops like a sweeping sweep, collapsed overnight.

Faith collapsed, and the Great Qin Empire collapsed.

From that time on, the sense of urgency that had disappeared in the hearts of the old Qin people for many years came back again.From that time on, the envoy hurried out of the city, bringing only bad news.

At this moment, the old Qin people have only one thought in their minds—is there going to be another war!

At this time, when the people in Xianyang were worried, Wang Yuan shouted again and again: "The Prime Minister Zuo has arrived—"

All of a sudden, people saw Ziying who had just ascended to the left prime minister striding forward with six civil servants.The clerk held a scroll of parchment in his hand, like stars holding the moon.

"Conscription again? Food and grass are being collected? Who can read and read quickly?" Someone in the crowd muttered eagerly.

A white-haired old man next to him sighed, and said: "Now there is still a surplus of grain, if we collect again, I'm afraid we will have to eat tree bark to survive."

……

At this moment, the people of Xianyang City were full of worries.The Great Qin Empire has not yet conscripted troops, but most of the young and strong in the city have conscripted labor, and have gone south to the land of Nanyue.

In addition, in the Great Qin Empire, the people did not have much surplus food.One year's harvest is just enough to feed the family, so naturally there is no food to pay.

Worry is something that everyone has.Seeing Zuo Xiangzi Ying come, he hesitated even more.In the past, this kind of thing was done by the order of Xianyang, but this time it was changed to the left minister, which shows the degree of corruption of the situation.

The people consciously made way for Ziying and his party to pass.Ziying walked up to the people and stood still, waved his hand, and said, "Hang up—"

"Yes!" Nodding yes, the six civil servants acted quickly, and after a while, the order to seek merit was hung up.

……

Ziying bowed deeply to the surrounding people: "Father and countrymen, don't worry. This is not conscription, nor labor, nor grain requisition."

Pressing his hands together to silence the yelling, Ziying bowed in the direction of Xianyang Palace, and then said loudly: "Your Majesty has learned from the pain, and feels ashamed of the old Qin people and the Great Qin Empire."

"I don't want the Great Qin Empire to collapse, and I don't want the old Qin people to become subjugated slaves. I order to seek talents! Today, I personally read out the edict of His Majesty to show His Majesty's determination!"

Ziying raised his arms and shouted: "The people of the world, the people, the ministers and the common people, whoever can make a strange plan to strengthen the Qin Dynasty, I will divide the land with him and give him a title. If you can recommend talents, you will also be rewarded!"

……

Dazed for a moment, the crowd suddenly exploded.The white-haired old men shed tears and nodded to each other with emotion: "His Majesty II finally did something that is not stupid!"

……

This scene did not only happen in Xianyang City.Hu Hai gave an order, and the government moved quickly.Two hundred special envoys galloped out, divided into four gates, east, west, north, south.

The Great Qin court had only one request for the special envoy, Kuai Ma, to send the order of seeking talents to the counties and counties as quickly as possible, and then the counties and counties sent it to various places.

There is only one purpose for doing this, to spread the Order of Seeking Talents to the world as quickly as possible.Radiate the entire Central Plains with Xianyang as the center, and revive the Great Qin Empire with the gathering of geniuses from all over the world.

Amidst the laughter of the old Qin people, the Kuaima envoys of Qin State were like shooting stars, going north to Jiuyuan, east to Hangu, south to Wuguan, and scattered all over the world.

Within a few months, the news that Emperor Qin II was thirsty for talent spread among the scholars in the cities of the world and the famous mountains and rivers in the countryside.

……

In this era, only fifteen years have passed since the Great Controversy of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, but the spirit bred in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period still deeply affects everyone.

This is an era when the abyss is the mausoleum and the high bank is the valley.In this era, no matter whether it is an emperor, a general or a minister, everyone is a generation with blood and vigor.

Moreover, since the emergence of the class of scholars, the main spirit has always been to practice the world, that is, to fight in the world with knowledge and to make contributions with talents.

No matter how the times change, this is still a warrior fighting the world.One word can rejuvenate the country, and one person can learn from the mighty world.

This is the great era that countless scholars have dreamed of. Since the fall of the Great Qin Empire, the spirit of soldiers fighting the world has died sadly.From then on, on the land of the Central Plains, only Confucianism was left alone.

It is precisely because the spirit of soldiers fighting the world still exists, and it is precisely because today's troubled times are like the Warring States Period.It was only then that Qin II's Order of Seeking Talents came out, which once again turmoiled the land of the Central Plains that had just quelled the war.

　Ask for the first order, ask for the first order, ask for the first order, and say important things three times.By the way, brothers, don't use books to book first, that doesn't count.
