Good Life in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 411 Yingchuan County Palace

"It really is...a good thing." Li Jiyang ate it even more vigorously. This is the authentic delicacy of the Warring States Period!

"That's right, there are a lot of them planted in this palace, and the state of Wu has long since disappeared, and the state of Chu buys a lot of these things from individual vassal states every year." Jiang Neishi saw that he liked to listen, so he chatted with him.

"Does Qin also buy it?" It seems that I have never seen it!

"It used to be, but after you appeared, I bought less, and now I don't buy it!" Jiang Neishi was a little complacent. "Why is that?" Li Jiyang didn't understand.

"Your seasoning is the best, much better than this one!" Jiang Naishi told him: "With yours, who would use this? If they didn't say they want you to have a different taste, slave Don't let them get on this!"

Li Jiyang clicked his mouth: "Actually, this is quite delicious, not greasy."

"As long as you eat well!" Jiang Nei said in his heart that the chef and the others should be rewarded again.

Sure enough, after hearing what Li Jiyang said, Ying Zheng rewarded the royal chefs after dinner.

The place has been renovated, and after finally reaching the destination, I can finally take a good bath. The bath here is not small.

Li Jiyang seriously doubts whether the bathing halls in the royal palaces of all the vassal states are built like swimming pools?

Are you using the same engineer?

"It's better to go to the place, take a bath like this." Ying Zheng took a bath with him.

"Let me rub it for you!" Knowing this journey, although there are also baths, Yingzheng probably took a bath in the river when he was in Zhao country since he was a child, but when he returned to Qin country, he used a big bath pool. The places for bathing are very large, and he doesn't like bathing in small places.

I feel awkward these days, and I'm afraid I'll wrong him.

Put it in a typical modern mental illness!

If he is not a rich man, he must be a man of the mountains. If he does not have a huge swimming pool for him to play, he must find a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters to live.

"Okay!" Ying Zheng leaned over.

Li Jiyang wrapped a soaked bath towel around his hand, and rubbed it vigorously for him: "I'll be more comfortable when I get to the place."

"Yes!" Ying Zheng enjoyed the comfort of his lover taking a bath: "Tomorrow, who do you think I should call first?"

"Han Fei!" Li Jiyang blurted out.

"What I'm talking about is, what's next for Han Fei? The Lord of the Migu...seems like he doesn't like government affairs..." It's funny when Ying Zheng thinks of the Lord of the Migu. If Han Fei's ability is considered, it may take a long time. Only then can Yingchuan County be managed well, and he will come back for inspection a few years later.

It's just that Han Fei came, so he followed.

"It doesn't matter what he likes, you don't have to worry about him, he doesn't do business all the time, and he doesn't talk about doing a good job in construction for Qindi. Come here to show courtesy, hum! Forget about my brother!" Li Jiyang angrily shouted at Ying Zheng rubbed his back and found that Ying Zheng's back was red!

Hurry up and find that Ying Zheng didn't respond, so he rubbed his shoulders.

"Migu has helped me a lot, and now all the princes are envious!" Ying Zheng said with a smile: "They really want to know the Lord of Migu."

"I'm afraid it's not just envy?" Li Jiyang knew that at the end of the Warring States Period, when talents were valued, who wouldn't want Ling Yi's existence against the sky?

Envy, followed by envy, and finally hate.

"Yeah, a lot of people used to visit Migu in secret, but later they became blatant and aboveboard!" Ying Zheng laughed when he mentioned this: "Some casinos even hang out in private, let's see what happened. Is it the Migu that can stop these people, or these people break through the Migu."

"The merchant must have won." Li Jiyang rubbed his shoulders instead: "For so many years, no one has been able to get past the defense line."

People can't get in there, there are several layers of protection, they may think it's just one layer, but one layer won't work!

There are many secrets!

"Yeah, a lot of merchants have made useless efforts. Later, they learned to be smart and pressed time to see how long it takes to break through. From three to five years, to ten years later, one family was even more ruthless and directly pressed for no time." Ying Zheng thought of himself. When I heard their report, I laughed so hard!

"That businessman is smart and has no future, isn't this just a waste of money!" Li Jiyang also wanted to understand.

This business is narrow enough!

"Yes!" Ying Zheng turned over and went to get the bath towel by himself: "I'll rub it for you."

He finished rubbing his back and shoulders, it's time for Xiao Yang to rub them.

"Yeah." Li Jiyang rubbed his back with confidence: "Tomorrow the first person to summon is Han Fei, who do you want to summon second?"

Because there was no dust flying all the way, and all the roads were clean and clean, and he bathed more or less every day, Li Jiyang's body was not too dirty.

What's more, Li Jiyang's skin is tender, and Ying Zheng doesn't dare to rub it hard, in case it gets damaged.

"There are capable ministers from South Korea. I heard that when our Qin army invaded, they were all thrown into prison by the King of Han. They will be executed soon." The Qin army came, and the King of Han was gone. It didn't work out either.

After Han Fei came, he released everyone.

Then he picked a good one to continue to be an official, and he brought people here. When he took over Yingchuan County, there was really nothing to do here.

Now that the achievements have been made, Wang Jia came in person, everyone is excited, and at the same time a little awkward, if Han Fei is alone, they can still deceive themselves, they still serve South Korea, but when Wang Jia of Yingzheng arrives, This self-deception is broken.

After all, it is now Qin's territory.

Even Mr. Han Fei is the governor of Qin State.

Only then did Li Jiyang understand that Ying Zheng didn't simply stay bored in Xianyang City and come out to let the wind go. His every move was tinged with political color.

His coming is a reminder and a warning.

He may be reminding Han Fei, or warning those who still have "Han" in their hearts, that he is the master of this land.

"They have done a good job over the years. We met, said something, gave some rewards, and bought people's hearts." Ying Zheng was simple, and dared to tell Li Jiyangming anything.

They should have no regrets to be summoned by the lord of a country.

"Alright." Li Jiyang turned over and said, "It's almost done washing, so hurry up and tidy up, and dry your hair for a while so you can rest."

"Yeah." Ying Zheng pulled him out of the bath.

After drying their bodies, they wrapped their turbans in their headscarves, changed their clothes, and went to the bedroom.

His hair was dry and he couldn't sleep, so Ying Zheng read the memorials with his hair loose. Now that he arrived in Yingchuan County, these memorials followed him to Yingchuan County.

Li Jiyang was bored, so he wiped his hair, Ying Zheng wiped himself after wiping, and after drying, there was still milk served by Jiang Nei, the kind without sugar.

Now I have used green salt and simple toothbrush, but it is better not to eat sweets at night.

It was really late when Ying Zheng finished reading the memorial. The two of them didn't do anything. They were too tired, not physically, but mentally. They hugged each other and fell asleep on the couch.

It was different when they got to the place. Li Jiyang slumped on the bed automatically, and Ying Zheng got up after a full sleep, went out for a walk, practiced a set of sword skills, and punched a lot.

After work was over, Li Jiyang was picked up when he came back, washed, changed, and had breakfast.

"What are you doing today?" Ying Zheng asked Li Jiyang while eating.

"I'll take a stroll with Mr. Han Zhong. This is the place where his old man grew up." Actually, I wanted to see if I could catch any mistakes.

But it's very difficult, because Ling Yi searched all over the palace.

He is so careful, what can be left for him?

But the hope is slim, and he has to go for it!

How long has it been since he experienced the joy of treasure hunting?

"Alright, you go first and take me for a walk when the time comes." Ying Zheng knew about Li Jiyang, he didn't like to socialize, let alone participate in politics, and whenever he had an idea, he was willing to talk to them.

"Yes." Li Jiyang nodded happily.

So after breakfast, the two separated. Ying Zheng summoned Han Fei and others, accompanied by Ling Yi; Li Jiyang followed Mr. Han Zhong and wandered around the palace.

The buildings of these palaces are very similar, but Mr. Han Zhong said excitedly: "The newly built palaces are just like this. Now, if we renovate them, it will be better than the old ones!"

"This is where the former king lived. He didn't like the front palace, so he lived here..."

"This was originally the residence of the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother was young and widowed, and finally died of depression..."

Every time he went to a place, Mr. Han Zhong showed Li Jiyang directions, like a tour guide, and even took Li Jiyang to see the withered lotus pond.

"Xiayue's flower has withered." Mr. Han Zhong looked at the Han Palace, which had changed from person to person, feeling very emotional.

"Lotus!" Li Jiyang blinked playfully: "Do you have lotus root?"

"Lotus root?" Mr. Han Zhong was taken aback for a moment, and then he laughed: "You, you, you have a heart-to-heart!"

"Looking at the remnant lotus at this time is a bit unsightly, let's eat something!" Li Jiyang smiled cutely at the old man.

Lotus root was cultivated more than 3000 years ago. Li Jiyang remembers that carbonized ancient lotus seeds have been found in Liaoning and Zhejiang, which shows its long history.

However, the lotus root of this era is a local product, and it grows small, not as big as the later ones.

The people who followed quickly went down and dug up a lot of lotus roots, and then quickly sent them to the imperial chef.

Li Jiyang ordered: "For dinner, let them serve a fried lotus root box, stir-fried lotus root slices, sweet and sour lotus root cubes, and cold lotus root strips."

"promise!"

"Let someone make some more black tea, just eat this cold." Mr. Han Zhong hurriedly asked someone to make black tea.

"Let them add a lotus root ribs soup." Li Jiyang added: "Four dishes and one soup."

"What do your lord and the boss want to eat?" Zhao Xi simply asked once.

"Lotus root cake!" Li Jiyang blurted out.

Zhao Xi: "...?"

Your Majesty, is this gluttonous lotus dish today?

The snacks served to Ying Zheng and the others at noon were lotus root flour osmanthus cake and longan lotus root flour soup.

In the evening, Li Jiyang finally came back, and Ying Zheng told him about the officials he met today: "Everyone is very honest and respects Han Fei, which is very good."

From this point of view, Han Fei still had some prestige in their eyes.

"That's good, as long as you think they are worthy of great positions." Li Jiyang thought for a while: "However, it is best not for local people to be officials in the local area, because they are inextricably linked with the local area. The law made it harder for them."

He remembered that the system of avoiding officials was first established in the Western Han Dynasty.

With his deep political insight, Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was keenly aware of the importance of being an official in a different place to maintain the centralization of the country, prevent the growth of nepotism, and restrain the entangled local forces.

According to historical records, as early as the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, the Western Han government at that time drew lessons from the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu, and took measures to prevent officials from forming cliques for personal gain. It is stipulated that up to the county governor, down to the county magistrate, chief, prime minister, and lieutenant, none of the county people are used.

He told Ying Zheng about this, and Ying Zheng fell silent.

How can it be so easy to centralize power?

He has worked hard for so long, and with the help of Xiaoyang, he has created the current situation. If he continues to expand his territory in the future, he must have a complete system to measure the county guards and even the generals...

He didn't come back to his senses until it was time to eat, only to see four dishes and one soup on the table!

"It's so rich... er...?" Ying Zheng just praised halfway, when he saw the true colors of these dishes, his face darkened.
