Chapter 96 Section 5: Sacrificing to Shun and Yu the Great Proclamation of the New Deal of the Empire

At the end of February, the Daxunshou camp crossed the Huai River and arrived at the north bank of Yunmengze. Yunmengze is the first big target of this grand tour plan.Emperor Yingzheng, Li Si and other important ministers knew very well that the Yunmeng Daze in the southeast and the Wuyueqi coastal area were the two bases for the nobles of the six countries to flee.Emperor Yingzheng's big hunting tour, in addition to his deep-seated goal of going north, the most practical goal is to deter the restoration forces who fled and gathered.This is the most fundamental part of starting the Southeast.In order to cover up this actual plot and achieve a surprise attack on the hiding places of the fugitive nobles, Emperor Yingzheng decided to show his appearance to the outside world, and the monarchs and ministers secretly negotiated a countermeasure.So, last winter, a rumor circulated in the wells and alleys of Xianyang City: Yinyang Zhanhou's family said that the southeast has the emperor's spirit, and the emperor was very worried, and decided to patrol the southeast to break its land veins.

In the Warring States Period, there is a peculiar phenomenon: the trend of truth-seeking is the strongest, and the theory of yin and yang is the most prosperous.At that time, there were many schools of yin and yang theory, and its mainstream forms at least included yin and yang and five elements, astronomical and calendar deduction, astrology (cloud divination, gas divination, and weather divination as its branches), divination (turtle divination, yarrow divination, and money divination as its branches) Form branch), geomancy, Xiangren six schools.All the schools of Onmyoji have developed to a mature stage with rich theory and practice during the Warring States Period.Whether it is the government or the people, they all use the various omens put forward by the various schools of the Yin-Yang School as important references to state affairs and family affairs, and as soon as there is a prophecy, it will be spread immediately.However, references belong to references, but they are not completely convinced.As a result, there is a style of the Warring States Period that is based on the style of seeking truth and does not reject mysterious revelation.The Qin Empire blatantly proclaimed the luck of water and Germany in the form of ordinances, burning books instead of divination books, and treating divination books as practical knowledge equivalent to medicine and planting trees is the most typical example.Because of this, the nobles of the six countries, alchemists and Confucian scholars made various prophecies such as "Hu Ye who will die in Qin Dynasty", "the ancestor dragon will die next year", "the land will be divided after the death of the first emperor", "although there are three families in Chu, the death of Qin will be Chu", etc. It is no wonder that the world is disturbed by such mysterious and apocalyptic prophecies.Also because of this, the prophecy that the southeast has a son of heaven will not cause much commotion. If it is passed on, no one may take it seriously.Similarly, Emperor Yingzheng believed that the southeast had the spirit of heaven, and he insisted on destroying its landlines. No one seriously cared about whether it was right or wrong. They only regarded it as knowing the reason why the emperor went to the southeast.

The rumor spread throughout the winter, and everyone in the world knew about it. The actual assignment of hunting monarchs and ministers is: Emperor Yingzheng and Li Sihu Wu respected the three ministers of Zheng Guo, and did all kinds of missionary rituals; Dian Ke Dunwei and Wei Wei Yang Duanhe led a thousand civilian scouts to secretly investigate the hiding place of the fugitive nobles Xiaoju Langzhong ordered Meng Yi to cooperate with each other, and the actual control of the camp guards was also handed over to Meng Yi, so that Yang Duanhe could devote himself to the investigation and raid.For this reason, as soon as they crossed the Huai River, Yang Duanhe and Dunruo all scattered to the lush islands and valleys around Yunmengze; Fifty miles ahead, a camp was set up.

Emperor Yingzheng is here to do a big and serious thing-sacrifice to Emperor Shun. Why did Emperor Yingzheng sacrifice to Emperor Shun?If we want to offer sacrifices to Emperor Shun, why not go to Jiuyi Mountain where the tomb of Emperor Shun is located, but visit Yunmengze?If you want to know the mysteries here, you must first understand Emperor Shun, his people and his government.Among the five emperors, the last two, Shun and Yu, are the two most distinctive sage kings with completely different political styles.Shun was originally a posthumous title added by later generations. "Historical Records The Chronicles of the Five Emperors" quoted the "Posthumous Law" as saying: "The saint of benevolence will be prosperous tomorrow." It is said that Emperor Shun's surname was Yao, and his last name was Chonghua.Because Emperor Shun was born in Yudi in later generations, he was also called Yushun.Although the history books of later generations also made many retrogrades against Emperor Shun, saying that he imprisoned Emperor Yao to stand on his own, and separated Danzhu, the son of Emperor Yao, so that Emperor Yao and his son could not meet each other, so that he could stand on his own as emperor.However, in the mainstream official history and the hearts of the people of the world, Emperor Shun's character merits can be regarded as the best among the five emperors.First, Emperor Shun was the most filial and kind, and Shun Shi repeatedly abused his parents and brothers without resisting, and finally influenced his parents and brothers; second, Emperor Shun loved the people, and his laws were peaceful and just, with many deeds; It can be called a model of kingship, and there are many deeds; fourth, Emperor Shun lived a long life. He was the co-lord of the world at the age of sixty-one.According to the mainstream evaluation in the pre-Qin period, Emperor Shun was a tolerant ancient sage king who was famous for his virtue, filial piety and kingship.

The wilderness of Cangwu refers to the mountains and fields full of blue sycamore trees.In ancient times, there were many unknown geography, and the field of Cangwu generally refers to the Wuling area in the south of the Xiangshui River.Emperor Shun died of illness in this Wutong mountain during his southern tour, and was buried in a mountain surrounded by nine waters.Because the terrain, water flow, and features of these nine mountain streams are very similar, it is difficult to distinguish them, so they are called Jiuyi Mountain. "Shui Jing Zhu" records: "In the wild of Cangwu, there are several counties with beautiful peaks. Luoyan has nine lifts, each leading to a stream, and Xiuhe is negative resistance. Different mountains have the same potential. Tourists are suspicious, so there are nine doubts. Mountain." Jiuyi Mountain Northwest is the Lingqu dug by the Qin Empire, and the distance between the two places is only about 200 miles.However, Jiuyi Mountain is thousands of miles away from the north bank of Yunmeng Ze, where Emperor Yingzheng is currently located, and is even more separated by the vast Yunmeng Ze. If you want a hunting camp with tens of thousands of people to reach the wild of Cangwu, isn't it? Impossible, but time-consuming and meaningless.After all, Yunmeng had a more practical political goal in offering sacrifices to Emperor Shun.

Only in this way, Li Si's grand ceremony plan is "Wang Sacrifice".Watchers, the specific etiquette of offering sacrifices to mountains and rivers.Its original meaning is that if you want to worship famous mountains and great rivers, you have to worship them from a distance.Therefore, hope has become a specific vocabulary for offering sacrifices to mountains and rivers.The mausoleums of saints, kings and sages are generally called sacrifices, and the word "wang" is rarely used.Li Si combined "look" and "sacrifice" into one ceremony, which not only means offering sacrifices to mountains and rivers from afar, but also means offering sacrifices to holy kings, which clearly refers to offering sacrifices to Emperor Shun from afar.

It is hoped that the ceremony will be grand and grand.The governor of Hengshan County received an edict in advance: county and county officials can all participate, and the nearby people are allowed to watch.The county guard sent the imperial edict to all counties and townships, and all the officials and people cheered happily. Not only the officials were absent that day, but even the hunting and fishing households stopped their livelihoods and came here one after another.The so-called mountains are high and the emperor is far away. In this land of mountains and rivers, no matter whether it is an official or a citizen, it is too difficult to see the emperor. It is even more difficult to dream of seeing the emperor attending a grand ceremony in person.What moved the officials and the public in particular was the news that the emperor was going to offer sacrifices to Emperor Shun.What is Emperor Shun?It is the way of kingship, lenient government, love for the people, and justice!The Great Qin Emperor offered sacrifices to Emperor Shun so solemnly, is it unclear what the meaning is?

On the solemn Wangsa altar, Emperor Yingzheng faced Nantian and read out the sacrificial oration carefully written by Fengchang Hu Wujing.The sacrificial texts praised Emperor Shun's filial piety, his love for the people and his virtuous government, the kingly and great government established by Emperor Yao and carried forward by Emperor Shun, and the peace of Emperor Shun who appointed Gaoyao to enforce the law.At the end of the sacrificial oration, Emperor Yingzheng recited a proclamation that moved everyone: "The New Deal of the Great Qin Dynasty, uphold the way of heaven, and follow the hearts of the people. Practice counties and counties, the world is one law, and An Dunmian. From now on, learn from the law. Emperor Shun, Changzhi Wuji—" The emperor's voice was still echoing in the valley, and the sound of long live drowned the mountains and rivers.

That night, the big tent in Emperor Yingzheng's camp was brightly lit, and the small court meeting ended late at night. Dun Ruo, who rushed back urgently, reported: After a secret and careful investigation, although there are nobles from the six countries hiding in Jingchu and the surrounding areas of Yunmengze, most of them are old, weak, women and children from collateral branches; mountains and rivers.Dunwei's proposition is: Don't delay in Yunmengze for too long, you should immediately go down the river and use Wuyue as a search and suppression center.Li Si and others all agreed, and the emperor also approved.The Xiaochao meeting decided: Li Simengyi's fleet plan was planned, and Yang Duan and his department rushed to Wuyue for investigation in advance; ten days later, the hunting camp went eastward.After the Xiaochao meeting was over, Emperor Yingzheng deliberately stayed behind.

"Dunwei, I have an important matter to ask, you have to answer truthfully." The emperor's expression was terrified. "Your Majesty, the old minister has never been false." "Is it feasible to restart the Black Ice Platform and go all out to hunt down the restored nobles?" "Your Majesty..." Dunwei was surprised and hesitated, and after thinking for a moment, he said clearly, "The old minister thinks that the Black Ice Platform is capable of arresting. However, the old minister thinks it is not feasible. The Great Qin ruled the world by law, so it is not appropriate to use extraordinary means to intervene in criminal arrests. After all, The Black Ice Terrace is good at assassination and assassination, if it intervenes in the search and arrest, there will be more killings. When the world has entered a period of constant governance, the disaster and fortune of this method are unpredictable."

"Of course I don't want to break the law." Emperor Yingzheng frowned while knocking on the book case, "I don't want to kill any more... The Puyang meteorite engraving case killed people ten miles away. But in the final analysis, the principal offender There is only one. If the county can arrest this principal culprit, why should the people of ten miles kill them! I don’t want to kill people, but I have to kill more people. How can I bear the suffering here? If the black ice station is restarted, even if I kill a few more people However, compared to the unsolved crimes and extensive entanglements, which is more important! The restorationists gathered in the coastal mountains and rivers, and their words and deeds were all secret. Such an undercurrent, even if there are hundreds of thousands of troops, what is it? The county and county government offices are already manpower-strapped for daily civil administration, so how can there be any spare manpower to do such a labor-intensive task? The reason why I hunted and hunted for the opportunity to search and suppress the nobles is also a bad idea. The dragon-slaying technique, but Will I feel better if I come to kill chickens? I want to restart the Black Ice Terrace, but I have no choice... Lao Qing said, apart from such restoration crimes, have I ever asked the law to execute the sentence?" Emperor Yingzheng said sincerely, even a little Sad. "Your Majesty, it is safest to investigate according to law..." "Dunwei, what I want is a deterrent to bring the culprit to justice within a time limit! Otherwise, I would rather kill more people by mistake!" Emperor Yingzheng's face was ashen, and his words were extremely fierce, "The restoration forces challenge the Great Qin, and I will never give in!" "Your Majesty, can you let the old minister have a word." After a long silence, he suddenly opened his mouth. "When did I not teach anyone how to speak? It's unreasonable!" The emperor became a little annoyed. "Your Majesty, the old minister has been in charge of the Great Qin State for many years, and the Black Ice Terrace has been led by the old minister for a long time. If it is for power, your Majesty wants to restart the Black Ice Terrace, and the old minister will not ask for it. I have a little understanding of the essence of governing the country. The veteran thinks that at this time, it is safer to follow the example of the Shang Lord, and it is more legal to govern the essence." "Old Qing, have you read the Book of Shang Jun?" Emperor Yingzheng was surprised. "Although His Majesty is not familiar with the words and sentences, but you can see their charm." Dunwei suddenly showed the appearance of a celebrity he had not seen for a long time. "Tell me, how to imitate Shangjun?" "Your Majesty, the Lord Shang's practice of the law will be the foundation of the future. The innocence of the crime will be ignored; the guilt of the crime will not be forgiven. Qianlong, Gongziqian, etc., the Lord of Shang knows that they are opposed to the reform, but they have nothing to do. When the crime happened, it never touched the old clan of the Qin State. Duke Xiao passed away and the clan was restored, and the Lord Shang was torn apart, but King Qin Hui completely eradicated it according to the law. Just imagine, if the king of Shang relied on authority to punish the old clan; It can be killed, but are the old Qin people convinced? Can the Qin State be stable? Here, there is a thought-provoking point: In the age of the last Shang monarch, the old family is powerful undercurrent, but they dare not openly restore it. There is a mystery here, has your Majesty ever thought about it? Pass?" "Old Qing, but said." "Administration is the biggest foundation of Shang Jun's practice of law. Shang Jun's administration is considered in advance, and mistakes are corrected. It is a pre-emptive strike. For this reason, Shang Jun's great government has won the hearts of the people. Great government wins people, and people's hearts are at ease. People's hearts are at ease. Then the restoration of the family will lose its vassals, and it will gradually wither. If the great government is missing and not repaired, the restoration of the family will have the power to cheer, and the people will follow the disciples. At this time, only relying on force to kill people will stop the boiling. And If the crime is not solved in time, and the black ice platform is used to intervene with extraordinary means, it will be like drinking poison to quench thirst..." "Weak!" Emperor Yingzheng was furious, and suddenly took the case. "The veteran has exhausted his words, and he is willing to give up his white head." Dunwei stood up tremblingly. "Dunwei...you are right..." the emperor panted heavily. "Your Majesty..." Dunwei was startled and at a loss. "People say loyal words are harsh, and today we will know what they mean." Emperor Yingzheng stood up from the case, and solemnly bowed deeply to Dunruo, "Sir, Yingzheng would like to be taught." "Your Majesty!..." With a choked sob, he quickly supported the emperor. "Ming Xiu Dazheng, draw the salary from the bottom of the pot. Kill people with force, stop the soup from boiling. Assassinate very much, drink poison to quench thirst." Emperor Yingzheng murmured, and couldn't help sighing, "Mr. The way of the rule of law of the king, I will be ashamed for the rest of my life after hearing what you say!" "Your Majesty... the old minister is in the land of Wuyue, and he must arrest the fugitives of the restoration." "Okay. If the government is lenient and the law is strict, the Great Qin can be safe!" In mid-March, a large fleet floated down the river. Readers, please note that the Chinese spirit of the Warring States Period has a strong awareness of ocean waters, far from the later generations who only focused on inland areas and closed sea areas most of the time.As far as the fleet's long-distance voyage capability is concerned, in addition to the unimpeded flow of the great rivers and rivers in the Chinese mainland, its alchemist Qiuxian fleet has been able to carry thousands of people across the Japanese archipelago, Chanzhou (Ryukyu), and Yizhou (Taiwan).After the fall of the empire, a small number of descendants of the royal family also traveled to Japan.More fundamentally, during the Warring States and Empire eras there was a strong custom of worshiping the sea, believing that the sea was a mysterious and unknown fairyland, and the spirit of exploration was particularly strong.In addition, the water worship concept established by the Qin Empire with the virtue of water as the destiny of the country played a great role in promoting the entire China not to consider itself closed as an inland ethnic group, but to bravely step into internal and external waters.This time, the emperor's hunting camp went east down the river, with more than a hundred huge boats covering the sky, echoing the horns of the iron cavalry patrolling guards on both sides of the river. The first settlement in the east was the west bank of Penglize in Lujiang County.Emperor Yingzheng landed on Lushan Mountain here. Peng Lize is also a great lake named after ancient times. "Book Yugong" contains: "(Yangzhou) Pengli is both stagnant." The stagnation is the place where the water stops and gathers.That is to say, this place was a great lake in very ancient times.In later generations, because Pengze County was established in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Tao Yuanming was the magistrate of Pengze County, so he changed his name to Peng Lize; some people even mistakenly thought that Peng Lize was the later Poyang Lake.The evolution of history is that until the Qin and Han Dynasties, Peng Lize and Dongting Lake in the west were both connected waters of the vast Yunmeng Daze, and they were both vast reservoirs of water that the mighty Yangtze River flooded and accumulated in ancient times.It is precisely because of the vast and vast Yunmeng Daze as a place to handle, the vast river water will not be like the Yellow River, where fundamental floods frequently occur.This vast water area has continued to gradually converge over the long years, and it was intermittently divided into several central water areas during the Warring States Period.Thus, there was Dongting Lake, which appeared to be independent, and Peng Lize, which appeared to be independent.In later generations, the largest central water area of ​​Yunmeng Lake gradually disappeared, leaving only Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake after the shrinkage of Peng Lize.This is something. But it is said that there is a famous mountain on the west bank of Pengli Ze, called Lushan Mountain.There is a big water beside Mount Lu, named Lujiang.According to "Shui Jing Zhu · Lujiang Water", there are folk and literature theories about the name of Mount Lu.The folklore is that during the period of King Wu of Zhou, there were talented scholars who evaded confiscation and lived in seclusion in this mountain hut many times.Later, Kuangsu became a fairy, and the empty hut still existed. His disciples cried all day and night, and the world was grateful, so they called Kuangsu the Lord of Lu, and the mountain where he lived in seclusion was also called Lushan.Li Daoyuan himself insisted on the literature statement, which said: "According to the creation of Dayu, the records are far away! His "Hai Nei Dong Jing" stated: Lujiang River came out of the Three Sons Capital (Lushan Mountain) and entered the river Pengzexi, which is the name of Lujiang River. Shanshui Relying on each other, referring to each other, Ming does not start with the customs. It is a gentleman who is a good man, and he quotes such things and uses them in sentences." In fact, what is the name of the first when the Lujiang River comes out of Lushan Mountain, I am afraid it is difficult to verify clearly. . Although this Lushan Mountain is not one of the Five Sacred Mountains, it is also very famous.The ancient name of this mountain is Tianzidu, which can be seen in its records.However, it is impossible to test what the meaning of the three sons is.Scholars in later generations have many disputes about its actual meaning, and there is no clear statement about its original meaning, so it is doubtful for the time being.Regarding the magnificence of Lushan Mountain, "Shui Jing Zhu" said: "Although it is not the number of the five mountains, the dome is steep and steep, and it is really a famous mountain!" Its accumulated civilization and historical footprints are not at its true height, where the respect of the Five Sacred Mountains lies.At this time, Lushan Mountain has no obvious divinity and grand presence, so there is only the magnificence of natural mountains and rivers. Emperor Yingzheng's visit to Mount Lushan was the first time a great man had come to Mount Lushan. In the early morning of that day, under the protection of 500 elite infantry, the emperors and ministers of the empire climbed the mountain with the guide of more than a dozen mountain people.For this visit, there are two relics left on Lushan Mountain, both of which are recorded in "Shui Jing Zhu".Mr. Li Daoyuan's writing is steep and magnificent, and his description of the landscape is unmatched. Let's take a look at his two documentary descriptions: First, "There are three stone beams on Mount Lu, tens of feet long, not full of feet, and bottomless. ...The mountains and rivers are clear and clean, the wind and luster are clear and open, the air is refreshing and the festival is harmonious, the soil is fertile and the people are comfortable. The scholars of Jiadun. After the Xiangkuyan. The sages of Longqian's style, those who have gone are forgotten! Qin Shihuang, Han Wudi and Tai Shigong Sima Qian climbed the rocks, looking at the Jiujiang River and overlooking Zhong and Pengyan!" Second, "In the south of Lushan Mountain, there is Shangxiao Stone, with high walls and steep walls, connecting with Xiaohan." In the south of the upper sky, Dayu carved stones to record the number of feet, and today they still have the title of carved stones...Qi Jiu said: In the past, Yu used to control the flood to this point, and he carved stones to record his achievements, or it was said that Qin Shihuang had strangled him. However, it has been a long time, There is no way to distinguish it." Later, "Taiping Yulan" quoted "Xunyang Ji" saying: "Shangxiao Peak is in the southeast of Lushan Mountain. Qin Huang ascended it and connected with Xiaohan, because of its name. There is a name engraved on the height The characters are as big as the back of a palm, only a few hundred words." This is the first time that Emperor Yingzheng has climbed a mountain that has no missionary significance.He climbed to Shangxiao Peak and carved a stone to praise Dayu's achievements in water control.He boarded the three stone beams, looked at the land of Zhongshan in the southeast, and had deep worries about the place where tigers and dragons were coiling.It should be said that at this time, Emperor Yingzheng already knew his next step very well. After staying in Lushan for ten days, the emperor's fleet went straight down. Danyang is the first big city where the river flows out of Lujiang County and enters Kuaiji County.Danyang, together with Jinling Township, Zhufang Township, and Yunyang Township along the river, constituted the heartland of the old land of Wu, and people at that time called it Jiangdong.Emperor Yingzheng took the land of Jiangdong as the first foothold in the east, and his intention was very clear. He wanted to search the secret place where the nobles of the six countries gathered here.As soon as the camp was set up, Emperor Yingzheng discussed with Liston Ruo Mengyi and arranged a search strategy: only 1,000 elite knight guards were left in the camp, and the remaining 4,000 troops were all dispatched to the weak Yang Duan and raided the Jiangdong area to arrest criminals ;The emperor's camp slowly went east after ten days, with great fanfare along the way to deter the restoration forces; one month later, the emperor's fleet and the Dunruo people gathered in Kuaiji County; Li Si was in charge of the emperor's camp fleet; Meng Yi, on the other hand, led a fleet of light boats to cruise near the shore, and the two communicated and supported each other.With such a well-planned plan, all parties acted immediately with deployment. A storm to deter restoration crimes suddenly broke out in Jiangdong. Before Emperor Yingzheng left Danyang, there was a sudden and urgent secret report: In the area of ​​Ludang in the waters of the Wujiang River on the left of the Jiangzuo River, there were three Xiaojugang branches of the nobles of the Chu Kingdom. There are more than 300 descendants of the old Chu family. The preliminary trial found that the most powerful Chu family in Jiangdong is the Xiang clan, and Xiang Liang, a direct descendant of Chu, has escaped from Danyang and fled to Jinling and other places.Emperor Yingzheng immediately ordered: to search Jinling, Zhufang, and Yunyang with all their strength, and arrest Xiang's direct line.After that, Emperor Yingzheng's fleet slowly descended eastward.On the watchtower of the giant boat, Emperor Yingzheng repeatedly received secret reports and issued edicts one after another. The fact that Jinling City has been continuously reported is that there are many secret caves on the outskirts of Jinling City, which not only hide the descendants of Chu nobles, but also gather many descendants of Central Plains nobles.Emperor Yingzheng immediately negotiated with Li Si, and while ordering Meng Yi to send officials in plain clothes to spread rumors that the emperor wanted to break the "Southeast Tianzi Qi", he ordered Yang Duanhe to immediately dig down mountains and break ridges to destroy the foundation of restoration.Within ten days, the news spread in an uproar in Jiangdong: the emperor dispatched more than ten thousand prisoners, dug open the North Mountain of Jinling, dug up the long ridge of the ridge, the land veins of Jinling City have been cut off, and the scene of tigers crouching and dragons panning is no longer there!Emperor Yingzheng got the report, and then negotiated with Li Si, who was originally from Chu.Li Siyun, the people of Chu are fond of witchcraft and ghosts, so they should change the name of the place to show the way of heaven, so that the hearts of the people will no longer be disturbed by mysterious rumors.Emperor Yingzheng immediately took the case and issued an edict to change the town of Jinling to Moling.Fodder is the fodder for cattle, horses and livestock.Moling, the land of livestock.Based on the actual situation at the time, Yingzheng's change of name with the intention of humiliating the name was obviously out of anger at the hidden restoration nobles.Even so, when the news spread, the people were outraged.Although Jiangdong's restoration forces have disappeared on the surface, they are actually more secretive and more able to confuse the people.The Xiang clan has been operating secretly in the Jiangdong area until the world is in chaos. It is unimaginable without the people's foundation.Later, Moling was changed to Jianye.When Jin destroyed Wu, in order to show its contempt for Wu, it was changed back to Moling.After the Sui Dynasty, the name of Moling finally disappeared. Zhu Fangyi is also similar.Three thousand criminals chiseled a hill outside the city.Emperor Yingzheng issued an edict to change the place name to Dantu.Dantus are also prisoners in ocher prison uniforms.Although its original meaning refers to the harboring of criminals here, the use of Dantu as the place name obviously makes people think that this place is the hometown of criminals.This place name was changed to Zhenjiang in modern times, and later changed back to Dantu.In Yunyang Township, criminals were sent out to chisel down Beigang, and dug the straight official road into a zigzag path, and the place name was changed to Qu'e.The fate of this place name is similar to that of Moling. During the Three Kingdoms period, Wu was changed to Yunyang, Jin was changed to Qu'a, and Tang was changed to Danyang.This is Danyang, Jiangsu today, not Danyang where Emperor Yingzheng was stationed. Jiangdong slowed down for more than a month, and more than 2,000 escaped nobles from the six countries were arrested, which greatly deterred the undercurrent of restoration that was raging at that time.Since then, all kinds of rumors and predictions have disappeared, and the restoration conspiracy of the fugitive nobles has become more secretive.If it were not for the sudden change in the overall situation later, it is very likely that the restorative activities in the world will gradually shrink.It was also during this trip to Jiangdong that Xiang Liang and the young Xiang Yu saw the powerful emperor for the first time, leaving behind Xiang Yu's famous saying that has been recorded in history. That was when the emperor's fleet berthed at Yunyangyi and landed, and changed to riding south to Zhenze (now Taihu Lake) on the way to Kuaiji County.Back then in the early summer, the vast tremors, blue waves and white sails dotted the sky.On the galloping road on the east bank of Daze, the emperor's hunting chariot rumbled southward, with sentry horses galloping on both sides, the sound of the car rumbling and flags covering the sun, and it was extremely magnificent among the green mountains and green waters.The people of Wuyue crowded on every hill beside the road, watching the emperor's guard of honor once in a lifetime.On a hill covered by trees, there are two commoners, old and young, hiding in the side of the tree and looking into the road.The old man was grey-haired and lean and strong.The young man was extremely thick and full of vigor. "When Yingzheng destroyed Chu, Xiang's blood flowed like a river." The old man gritted his teeth in a low voice. "He can replace it!" The boy punched the tree, causing the tree to rustle its leaves. The old man was shocked, and covered the boy's mouth with his palm: "Murder! Don't talk crazy!" The young man pushed the old man away, and said in a low voice, "Xiang Yu will not avenge blood and blood, and swear he will not be a human being!" "Revenge? How?" "Kill all the people of Qin! Burn all Xianyang!" "It's better to practice swordsmanship first." The old man smiled coldly. "No! Xiang Yu wants to practice ten thousand enemies! Sword, one man enemy." "Okay, have ambition!" The old man whispered excitedly, "Uncle taught you the art of war, the long spear and the big halberd!" At the beginning of April, the emperor's camp arrived at Kuaiji Mountain. Among the southern mountains at that time, Kuaiji Mountain was the most sacred and famous mountain.This Kuaiji Mountain was named Fangshan in ancient times, also known as Maoshan and Dongshan.The building is the town.It means that this mountain is the town of Yangzhou.Its mountain is square in shape, with many gold and jade on the top and many stones on the bottom.According to "Yue Jue Shu", the Yellow Emperor once left a prophecy book in gold and jade characters on this mountain, but no one knows what it prophesied.However, the divinity that is most closely related to Kuaiji Mountain is the relics of Dayu.First of all, the name of Kuaiji Mountain was changed to Kuaiji Mountain because after Emperor Yu succeeded in controlling the waters, he gathered the princes on this mountain and entrusted the country (accountant) with meritorious deeds, so the name was changed to Kuaiji Mountain;Secondly, in the tenth year of his ascension to the east, Dayu collapsed and died in Kuaiji Mountain, and was also buried in Kuaiji Mountain.The later "Shui Jing Zhu" recorded the mystery of Dayu's Mausoleum: "There is Yu's tomb on the mountain... there are birds who come to work for it, pull grass roots in spring, and peck at its filth in autumn. There is no pardon for punishment. There is a well in Shandong, and it is seven miles away from the temple, and the bottom is not deep, so it is called Yu’s well.” Later, Emperor Shaokang of the Xia Dynasty granted his youngest son Zhu to Kuaiji Mountain to guard the mausoleum of his ancestor Dayu; the descendants of Zhu It multiplied to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and became the Yue People Yue State at that time.The famous Yue King Goujian tribe is the descendant of Dayu Zhixia tribe. Emperor Yingzheng came to Kuaiji Mountain to offer sacrifices to Yu the Great. Among the five emperors, Yu is the one with the most meritorious spirit.Among the five emperors, the descendants only crowned Emperor Yu with the word "big", which is by no means a vain eulogy, but because of his achievements surpassing the previous generations, he laid the foundation of Chinese civilization.Control the floods to save the people, set up the Kyushu to establish a system, set up wells to secure farming, seal the country and establish a system to brighten the country, set up a hundred officials and a standing army to rule the princes... All these, in a word, the Chinese ethnic group entered the country The era, since the beginning of Yu Dayu.It can be said that before Emperor Yingzheng, the feudal system of feudal China created by Dayu lasted for nearly three thousand years.Only in this way, Emperor Yingzheng's respect for Emperor Yu came from the heart, and climbing Kuaiji Mountain to worship Dayu was by no means more missionary than wishing to worship Emperor Shun. After sacrificing Dayu, Emperor Yingzheng insisted on climbing the highest mountain outside Kuaiji City, where he looked at the South China Sea and stood there for the whole day.This mountain is called Qinwang Mountain by later generations. The "Shui Jing Zhu" says: "Qin Wang Mountain, in the south of the state city, is the outstanding peak... Take the top of the mountain for seven miles from the flat ground, stare at the lonely danger, and the path is dangerous. There are no tall trees on the mountain, which should be caused by the strong wind." Such a mountain is more than seven miles high and the path is dangerous. At this time, the already weak Emperor Yingzheng insisted on climbing, all because of the backlog in his heart worries about the counties in the South China Sea. Looking at China, the north has been stabilized, and the Great Wall is about to be completed, so it is generally safe.Only the three counties in the South China Sea that are connected to Fujian and Yue are located in remote places, and Wang Jianmengwu passed away unexpectedly. It is really worrying whether Ren Xiao, Zhao Tuo and other generals can control them effectively.What's more, the aristocrats of the world fled to remote mountains and rivers one after another in order to restore the restoration. Jiangdong Minyue has become a place where restoration forces gather. How do you know that they will not flee to the three counties in the South China Sea?Sure enough, will the overall situation in the South China Sea be stable?Looking at the South China Sea, the familiar Qin Feng suddenly sounded in the ears of Emperor Yingzheng. The Qinfeng floating from the Coconut Grove Valley in the twilight had deeply shocked Yingzheng; 300,000 people, including 10,000 women, went to the South China Sea, it is really unknown.Gazing from a distance, Emperor Yingzheng couldn't help humming the song "The grass is green, the dew is frost, the so-called Yiren is on the side of the water" by Qin Feng. Before he finished humming a song, Emperor Yingzheng was already in tears... ...At dusk that day, Emperor Yingzheng was carried down the mountain by guard soldiers in turn. At night, Emperor Yingzheng carefully read the missionary text written by Li Si again under the lamp, and issued an edict to engrave stones. This sacrificial oration was called "Kaiji Carved Stone" by later generations, and its words read: This text and characters are all carved stone inscriptions in the hands of Li Si, but it is actually connected with the meaning of Emperor Yingzheng's sacrifice to Yu Dayu.That is to say, when the emperor offered sacrifices to Dayu, the sacrificial text would naturally state Dayu's achievements beyond the past and present; and facing Dayu, the founder of Chinese civilization, Qin Zheng and Qin Shihuang's great achievements would naturally also be mentioned to Dayu. and.In fact, the stone inscriptions on Kuaiji Mountain are a political dialogue between the great Emperor Yingzheng and the great Emperor Yu; at the same time, it is also a positive declaration of the purpose of the New Deal by the emperor and his ministers to the people all over the world. The most noteworthy thing about this stone inscription is that it is the first time to comprehensively review the tyranny of the Six Kingdoms: "The six kings are dedicated, greedy, violent and arrogant, and lead the people to self-improvement. The yin communicates with the envoys, follows the facts, and guides the way." For the first time, the cause and purpose of Qin's destruction of the six kingdoms were put forward positively: "The internal deceit, the foreign invasion of the border, and the disaster. The righteousness punishes it, Extinguish the violent rebels, and the rebels will perish." This is not only a warning to the people of Shandong, but also a warning to the restoration forces-the six countries are self-defeating, and Qin has no way!Immediately afterwards, it reviewed and stated Qin Zheng's virtues and customs in a relatively comprehensive way, and listed various good achievements in the world's peace and great governance.It should be said that this stone inscription echoes the missionary purpose of Yunmengze's worship of Emperor Shun and the purpose of offering sacrifices to Dayu, and its overall intention is both clear and subtle.The clear side is: the achievements of the Great Qin’s New Deal are facts for all to see, which cannot be obliterated or misinterpreted; the subtle side is: the Great Qin has begun to follow the kingly way and the sage, and has begun to propose a virtuous government. As long as the world is stable, Qin’s government will make a difference. Corrected. --------------------------------------- Notes:
