Chapter 5 Chapter 4 The road to expulsion

Taoist priests practice the method, and the conclusion often says: The Taishang Laojun is as anxious as a law!With the boundless magic power of Laojun, it is still necessary to use the law of the world to strengthen his momentum, which shows that the law is irresistible.Let's say that Yingzheng issued an order to expel guests. Anyone from the six countries who came to Qin will be expelled regardless.Orders are cut like sharp knives, and there is no one who can resist them. Regarding the scale and progress of this expelling operation, the "Historical Records" only gave a two-word description: Da Suo.However, it is not difficult for us to imagine that behind these two words are the tragic fate of tens of thousands of families and the sadness and resentment of countless foreigners.Back then, they dreamed of the Qin State dream, left their hometowns, and came to Qin State full of hope. They fought hard for this country, paid taxes and served for this country, but at the end, they were forcibly expelled without even a chance to defend themselves.

Please order the customer to leave immediately, no delay is allowed.Moreover, just like taking a plane or a train today, each foreign passenger has a luggage limit, so don't take too much.Yes, they were not only insulted, but also robbed. All the wealth they had accumulated in Qin State for many years was brutally deprived of it.If they were robbed by robbers, they could still fight back, and at worst, they could complain and seek justice.However, when they were robbed by one country, the only superpower at that time, they had no choice but to swallow their anger and remain silent. Although Li Si was a noble guest, he also became a victim of the order to chase away guests.In fact, Li Si had to be sacrificed in order to successfully carry out the expulsion order. After all, so far, he had the highest official title among all the outsiders.

Ten years in Xianyang, a dream.Li Si stepped out of the city gate of Xianyang, looking back at this western capital, he felt the bitterness of Lu Buwei's departure.But unlike Lu Buwei, Li Si felt more unfair.He didn't do anything against the Qin State, but because of his status as a foreigner, he was considered to be the same as the Zheng State, connecting with the old country and plotting wrongdoing.This is clearly a presumption of guilt, unreasonable, how can it be convincing! It's early winter, the north wind is blowing, and the sky is freezing cold.Under the escort of the army, the foreign guests have a long team for several miles, and they all drag their families and children with them.The military officials were not sympathetic to them, and sometimes they were whipped with sticks.The misery of the situation is no different from fleeing.There are only tears on the road, but no songs are heard in a hundred miles.Why are the officials angry, why are the women crying?And inside the outsiders, they were also crowded, shoved, shouted, and some even took the opportunity to rob each other.Li Si remembered his senior brother Han Fei's lament about the inherent evil of human nature: "There is no Zhongni above a galloping car, and there is no Boyi under a capsized boat." Thinking of this sentence at this time, Li Si couldn't help feeling deeply painful.In the face of the catastrophe of the Great Panic, no matter benevolence, morality or celebrity demeanor, they are no match for the survival instinct after all.

Li Si dilated his nostrils and took a deep breath.The humid air is cold from the nasal cavity to the lungs.Although this trip is a journey of deportation, on the positive side, it is also a journey home.Hometown, what a warm name, after a long absence, the return of the wanderer makes me very emotional!But Li Si didn't dare to return home, at least not now, not because of timidity, but because of a guilty conscience.He is the pride of the entire Shangcai County.In the mouths of the folks, he is a mythical figure, and in the hearts of children, he is a role model and a dream.Only Chu is talented, and he is prosperous here. Fathers and villagers always like to repeat this sentence, boasting about him to outsiders, just like boasting about their own brothers or children.How could he return in such a failure!Although the villagers are kind and simple people, no matter how good his eloquence is, how can he stop their regretful and disappointed eyes.And those who gloat will definitely take the opportunity to sarcastically say, I knew a long time ago that Li Si's good times will not last long, no, he ran back in a desperate way.

The road home is so long.And the wife just followed Li Si silently, with lowered eyelids, as if she couldn't know that there was no other satisfaction in the world besides following him.She is a loyal and dutiful woman, and the idea of ​​despising or even leaving her husband is absolutely impossible for her, just as promised in the Western wedding vows: "to have and to hold from this day forward; for better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part. " 〖(I would like to stay with you, No fear of misfortune, fortune, rich or poor,

Healthy without fear of disease, I'm only afraid that I can't be enough to love you. As a royal wife, This body can die, This heart is endless! )〗 Overnight, their aristocratic life in Xianyang disappeared, but the wife did not complain at all.Li Si would rather she complain about something, so that he would feel better.Looking at the two sons again, the eldest son Li Youwei frowned, as if he was worried about his future; the second son Li Zhan was only twelve years old, and he was still jumping up and down happily as usual, running forward and backward for a while.
