Shilitun several times under the jurisdiction of Longxi Shuoyang County.
Longxi was located in the northwest and was sparsely populated. Hence, it was nearly a hundred miles from Shilitun to Shuoyang County.
Fortunately, the date given was the first day of the next month.
There were still five days left until the first day of the next month. It was enough for Xia Lan and the others to arrive.
There were a total of eleven people in Ten Mile Village who needed to serve in the night shift.
Among these eleven people, only Xia Lan and another child named Yuan were doing their first night shift. The others had already done their night shift many times.
The eleven of them rushed towards Shuoyang County under the leadership of the village chief.
This local farmer was similar to the captain of the militia in the future. He was in charge of public security, conscription, and other matters.
In fact, there were also two or three lives under the village miser's command.
This You Jiao was naturally equivalent to the constables of the later generations.
Outside Ten Mile Village, Xia Lan looked at the village that had disappeared behind her and felt a little melancholic.
He finally left.
The last time he left the village, he had personally witnessed three elders being killed.
This time…
"Boy Lan, are you homesick?"
Behind him, the village chief saw Xia Lan looking behind him and could not help but ask with a faint smile.
"Uncle Cheng."
Xia Lan returned to her senses and smiled faintly.
Xiangse Fucheng was also from Ten Mile Village. Xia Lan had met him a few times and was quite familiar with him.
"Child, Uncle Cheng heard about your father, sigh…"
"I only hope that Your Majesty can wipe out the six dynasties as soon as possible and unify the world.”
"At that time, the people of the world will be free from the pain of war.”
Chengbo was slightly older, about forty years old.
Perhaps it was because he had experienced too many things, but in this era, a forty-year-old person would often see things more clearly than a sixty-year-old person in the future.
Xia Lan nodded slightly.
The Warring States Period lasted for hundreds of years, and countless people died.
Every generation was never peaceful.
"Uncle Cheng, it won't be long before the king can unify the world.”Xia Lan said with a smile.
"Haha…"
Uncle Cheng smiled faintly. He had taken Xia Lan's words as a joke.
Destroying the six dynasties was easy to negotiate?
"Uncle Cheng, I have a question that I would like you to answer.”Thinking about Great Qin's fate and current situation, Xia Lan suddenly thought of a problem.
"Tell me."
"Will I be beheaded if I miss the deadline?”Xia Lan thought for a moment and said.
Previously, when her foster father Pan was around, he would often explain the laws of Qin to Xia Lan, but unfortunately, he did not talk about this.
It was also because Xia Lan was on her way to serve as a night watchman that she thought of the guy in Daze Village who would shout," How can a noble have guts?" She asked curiously.
"Beheaded?"
Uncle Cheng smiled and shook his head."Although the laws of Qin are strict, it hasn't reached this stage.”
"According to the records of the Qin Dynasty, if a servant fails to meet the deadline for one day, he will be reprimanded.”
"If you encounter a natural disaster on the way and miss the deadline, you can also explain the situation. There will be specialized officials to investigate. If the situation is true, you can be exempted from punishment.”
"But you can't escape.”
Hearing this, Xia Lan suddenly found it funny.
In that case, the people of the future generations were deceived by Sima Qian again.
According to Uncle Cheng, being late for a day was equivalent to being scolded, three days late was equivalent to a fine of one jia, and ten days late was equivalent to twenty lashes and a fine of two jia.
Moreover, it could be explained that he had been delayed by a natural disaster.
From the looks of it, the so-called 'it is better to rise up than to be beheaded' was a joke.
Later generations said that the Qin Dynasty was a tyrannical Qin Dynasty, and the First Emperor Ying Zheng was a tyrant.
Xia Lan thought about it carefully and could understand.
The author of the Records of the Historian, Sima Qian, was a minister of the Han Dynasty and a Confucian.
The First Emperor, Ying Zheng, did not like Confucianism and did not rule the country with Confucianism.
After that, Han replaced Qin and seized the world from Qin. For both public and private reasons, he naturally would not praise Qin Shihuang's merits.
Xia Lan remembered that before she transmigrated, the two newly unearthed ancient books,'Tsinghua Bamboo Slips' and 'Yunmeng Bamboo Slips,' recorded many stories that were completely different from the historical records.
As for the specifics, it was up to future generations to decide.
"Everyone, it's already noon. Let's rest for a while.”
Uncle Cheng looked up at the sun and shouted.
When everyone heard this, they all picked a clean piece and sat down.
……
Shuoyang County Left County Wei House.
In the main hall, the four of them sat facing each other.
"General, the Prefectural Governor informed me a few days ago that he would be transferring a new county lieutenant. I didn't expect it to be you.”
In the arena, a muscular man in brown clothes looked at the young man opposite him and said.
The young man smiled and took a sip of tea."Lord Liang, I have been demoted here for violating military rules. As the right lieutenant, please take care of me in the future.”
Then, he looked at the middle-aged man beside the county captain and said,""Please take care of me, Deputy Liu."
Magistrate Liu was a shrewd person. When he heard the young man say this, he immediately smiled and shook his head."General, you must be joking."
"But…"
" General, with Old General Wang's face, you shouldn't have done such a thing..." County Deputy Liu frowned slightly and thought for a moment.
"Lord Liu, the laws of Shang are the foundation of our Great Qin Empire. Back then, King Wen of Hui violated the laws of Qin when he was the Crown Prince. The Grand Tutor was also punished on behalf of the Crown Prince.”
"Li has violated the military rules, so he naturally has to be punished.”
Wang Li said with a faint smile.
Wang Li did not hide anything and reported the matter of Yan Shi killing Great Qin's people and trying to obtain military merits.
As expected, even though Hundred General Yan was executed on the spot, his family did not escape the punishment.
All the children in the family were demoted to hidden officials.
The rest of the people were tattooed and exiled, some as ministers, some as city Dan.
As the superior of the Hundred General Rock, Wang Li naturally had to bear the responsibility for not being strict with his subordinates.
He had been demoted to rank 3 and became a county captain in Shuo Yang.
"Lord Liu, Lord Liang, now that the king is attacking Zhao again, this matter…"
After some pleasantries, Wang Li started to talk about serious matters.
"General, some of Shuo Yang's guards have already been assigned to the supply camp as guards. They should have arrived at Ping Yang by now.”
"The next batch of soldiers will arrive in ten days, about two thousand people.”
Wang Li nodded." Lord Liang, I have a mission with me. I will train the next batch of soldiers."”
Logically speaking, the county right lieutenant was in charge of the change of service. Wang Li had just arrived, so this was a little abrupt.
However, the county captain knew that the person in front of him had a noble status.
Coming to Shuo Yang County was just a formality.
"If that's the case, I'll have to trouble you, General. I'll have some free time, haha…"
"Haha…"
Everyone laughed in agreement.
