Chapter 521: Smart Man
A few days later, in the corner of the pavilion outside the west gate of the county seat in Linzi County, the sturdy wrestler rested on the manpower chariot he pushed, and drank the slurry water in a big gulp.
One after another ox cart full of slips went out, and some of them wore Confucian clothes, but they wore shackles, and the scholars who had been shaved followed in despair, during which a few books were accidentally dropped on the ox cart, and some Confucian students subconsciously wanted to pick them up, but they were whipped by Qin officials.
Lux couldn't help but be curious, and asked the middle-aged businessman on the side: "Zhang Liang, what are those people doing?" “
Zhang Liang is in his thirties, the former personable son Han Xiangjia has long disappeared, deliberately long beard makes him look older, the wind and sun have wrinkled his forehead, he wears a Ge cloth coat, dressed like a businessman, he said helplessly:
"As I said, don't talk easily, let alone call me Zhang Liang, and don't use the Chinese language."
Although Lux is strong, he is very honest, and after a sigh, he changed to the Qi dialect, which was already relatively fluent, and asked Zhang Liang again.
The people in the pavilion were gathered on the side of the road to watch the scene, Zhang Liang saw that no one was listening, so he said in a low voice: "These Qin officials, on the orders of the First Emperor of Qin, confiscated the folk "poems", "books", "history" and other books, and those who dared not hand them over were punished with a bearded hair, and those who dared to talk about "poems" and "books" were severely punished, and those who were not ancient and modern were demoted to Chengdan. ”
"Books?"
Hercules scratched his head, in his hometown, on the other side of the sea, there was no such thing. Occasionally, the "people who came to the river" who escaped from the Qin government brought one or two rolls ashore, but the local people were not interested in the symbols of the full scrolls, and they were interested in the sharp weapons and exquisite utensils carried by the people who came to the river......
As for the books, those old bamboo slips are too few to make firewood, and the chopsticks are too thin to be dismantled, and they are simply useless.
But the emperor was so nervous about these useless things, and Lux couldn't help but be curious: "When I first came to the Central Plains, I was met with the crime of officials collecting civilian weapons and secretly hiding weapons, and I didn't have a private collection of books, is it that in the eyes of the emperor, books are more terrible than weapons?" ”
Zhang Liang said with a smile: "A weapon is a tangible weapon, it is held in the hand, the emperor waved his hand lightly, and there were thousands of troops and horses to wipe it out. ”
"But what is hidden in the book is an invisible weapon, which spreads among the people through the eyes, mouth and ears, and it is impossible to guard against it."
Although Zhang Liang is a good old man, he is also in Huaiyang and has learned etiquette with famous teachers, so he has experience in poetry, books, etiquette and music.
He said: "The books and poems record the ancient sage kings' concept of governing the world, and the history books of various countries record their own histories. Seeing this, scholars will understand that compared with today's brutality and harshness, it turns out that in ancient times, there were three generations of rule, and the Holy Son of Heaven hung down and ruled by inaction. ”
And Qi Chuyan, Han Zhao, and Wei, before being ruled by the tyrannical Qin, all had a separate history, which made people remember which country they were. These are the shadowless arrows contained in the book, one more person to grasp and one more person to spread, it is equivalent to one more person who strikes a blow to Qin, so it must be banned! ”
What frightened Qin Shi Huang even more was that Qin had nothing to do with it, their history books were crude, their poetry books had long been destroyed, and the Kwantung scholars had already scoffed at them and treated them like Rong Di. The Qin government can only use laws and regulations to forcibly restrain it, but everyone is so lenient and tired of being strict, so in order to show that he is highly meritorious to the three emperors, the five emperors of Demai, and in order to show that his court is better than the rule of three generations, the emperor wants to burn the ancient ......"
Lux opened his mouth wide when he heard this, he knew for the first time that the original humble book could play such a big role, better than Feng Di Bingge!
"The idea of the Central Plains people is really strange." He shook his head, unable to figure out such complex logic.
"You can't figure it out, but someone can figure it out."
Zhang Liang said with a smile: "In my opinion, the treatment of these invisible weapons, the emperor and Prime Minister Li Si will probably be like collecting the world's weapons and destroying them, and they will be burned, which will cause the scholars to be angry and deviate from morality." But who would have thought that there was a clever Qin official who stopped this matter, although the soup was changed but not the medicine, the books still had to be paid, and the private collection was still illegal, but it changed from burning books to repairing books, and the government repaired books? No, what they are cultivating is a weapon that can confront the Kanto poetry, books, rituals, and music, and the history of the Six Kingdoms! ”
Thinking of this, Zhang Liang's heart became urgent: "If he succeeds in his treacherous plan, ten or twenty years later, when the next generation grows up, I am afraid that they will be fooled by the government, and they only know Qin but not Han!" ”
In terms of Lux's observation in the past three years, this Zhang Liang is already the smartest person in the Central Plains. Obviously, as a fugitive, he was plotting to assassinate the emperor, but he was very calm. From Yandi to Zhaodi, during the period I went back to Handi, and then came to Qidi, walking swaggering along the way, living in the store with a fake test, no matter where I went, there were Ren Xia's friends secretly helping, and someone passed the news to him in the court.
This is the first time Lux has heard Zhang Liang praise people for being smart, which is an extremely rare recognition, and Lux can't help but be curious: "Where is that smart Qin official?" ”
But the next sentence is: "Do you want me to kill him?" ”
"I've tried once, but I didn't succeed, I missed a hit, this person is already vigilant, and the people who can help me have also been wiped out, relying on you and me, there is no chance."
Zhang Liang shook his head, seeing that it was not early, he got up and said, "When you are full of food and drink, let's go, the road we have to walk is still long!" ”
Qin Shi Huang will soon pass through this place, but Zhang Liang does not think that Xixian is a good place to do it, it is densely populated, but it is peaceful, and there is no place for the two of them to hide, let alone retreat.
Lux pushed up the cart and looked to the east, but Zhang Liang pointed him to the south.
"Didn't you say that someone sent a letter asking you to go to Jiaodong and say that someone over there answered?" Lux Daqi.
"That alchemist has bad intentions, and I won't contact him again."
Zhang Liang sneered: "Zhang Liang stabbed Qin, only seeking revenge for the country and his family, but he didn't want to be like Nie Zheng, who made a sword in someone else's hand, was used, and wasted his life in vain!" Didn't you ask me, where is the wise Qin official? His name is Heifu, and he is the county guard of Jiaodong! Zhang Liang will avoid him in the future, I will not be a reckless man, I will endure for a while, seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, so that the world can be vegetarian! ”
……
Three days later, Qin Shi Huang's huge eastern tour convoy passed through Xixian County, crossed Weishui, and officially entered the boundary of Jiaodong County.
Fang Shi Han Zhong has been frightened, after entering Jiaodong, when the convoy is moving, every time there is a little wind and grass, he will poke his head out to investigate, for fear that Zhang Liang really believed his words and brought people to assassinate, but the biggest accident is that there are people's cattle and sheep running on the road, and they are dispersed by the soldiers of Jiaodong County.
But until they arrived at the beach, there was still no assassin in sight, but the Heifu had become more and more guarded.
Lu Sheng seemed to be surprised by this situation, and after hearing Han Zhong say that the person he sent could no longer find any trace of the dead man, he laughed out loud: "Mr. Han, the dead man you are looking for is a smart person, I'm afraid he is no longer in Jiaodong at this moment." ”
In this case, their plan to "search for immortals" and the Fang Shi could only be carried out in the presence of Heifu and with a huge right to speak......
"Fortune and misfortune are lurking, and misfortune and fortune are relied on, no matter what, since the dead man is hidden, Han Zhong can be held hostage by this matter again and used by me for a period of time."
Lu Sheng sighed, and said secretly in his heart: "It seems that before arriving at Zhifu, the old man must have a good talk with the black man." ”
At this time, Han Zhong was relieved to learn that the "dead man" would most likely not assassinate the emperor, and after the stone in his heart fell to the ground, he also found a key problem, and couldn't help but say:
"Qi people are good to discuss, especially Fangshi, so in Jibei, Linzi, I heard that the emperor arrived, there are often Fangshi want to see it, talk about gods and monsters and strange magic, hoping to be photographed, once rich. Why have I been in Jiaodong for a few days, but I haven't seen a single monk? ”
"You want to know?" Lu Sheng, this is the reason why he is so jealous of the Heifu County Guard! When he knew what this guy had done to Jiao Dongshi, he was also shocked and angry!
He said with some hatred: "When you get to the beach, you will naturally understand!" The county guard of Heifu has set up a big battle there, and plans to show it to His Majesty! ”
……
Heifu, the "smart man" in Zhang Liang's mouth, didn't know about these things, but based on his own experience in assassination, he knew that there was no harm in being well-guarded.
If something happens to Baimiyi, as the county guard of Jiaodong, he can't escape the blame, and the ghost knows where the "Bolangsha" that failed to happen as scheduled will be transferred?
"Love, don't be on my turf......" thought to Hef.
He was careful along the way, so that the county lieutenant, Gongao, Cao Shen and others before the arrival of the royal car, clean up the local light forces, so there was nothing to do all the way, on the third day of the first month of October, Qin Shi Huang's car finally arrived at the seaside north of Xiami County......
"This is Your Majesty's first visit to the beach, right?"
When he was opening the way, Heifu suddenly asked Zhang Cang on the side.
Zhang Cang was stunned: "However, not only Your Majesty, but also the Right Prime Minister, the Imperial Lieutenant, the Liehou Zhuqing, most of them have never seen the sea." ”
He pointed to himself and smiled, "Me too." ”
However, after all, Zhang Cang is now in Shaofu, and what he is most interested in the sea is not the scenery, not the old captain of the sun and beach, and not the ethereal and elusive fairy island, but some kind of specialty by the sea......
Seeing the coastline in the distance, Zhang Cang said excitedly: "I have heard that Qi is a country of mountains and seas, producing hundreds of thousands of minutes of salt every year, and where the Weishui enters the sea, it is boiling the sea day and night, and the smoke covers the sky and the sun, and today I can finally see it!" ”
"Hahahaha."
Unexpectedly, Heifu laughed loudly on the side, Zhang Cang didn't know why, and Heifu pointed to the sky and said, "Brother Zig, look." ”
"See what?"
Zhang Cangpang's face was full of doubts, but then he reacted:
Today's sky is just right, blue sky and white clouds, the sun is shining, where is the billowing smoke produced when "boiling the sea"!?
