Chapter 501 Both rain and dew are touched
The six kings are complete, and the four seas are one.

The six kingdoms were destroyed and the world was unified by Qin.

Originally, Ying Zheng planned to propose to make Cheng Jiao a king in the court five days later, but was blocked by Cheng Jiao.

It was changed to after the coronation ceremony and the Fengshan ceremony at Mount Tai.

Next year.

Cheng Jiao sensed the mysterious power of destiny. After Zheng Ge's coronation ceremony, although it accelerated and gathered in Qin State, it was still a little slow.

So just in case.

This year, under his strong advice, with the assistance of his two fathers-in-law Lu Buwei and Changping Jun, and the support of Zheng Ge.

He immediately began to carry out drastic reforms on the Qin State.

First, the writing systems of various countries were abolished, and Li Si, with a group of literate teachers trained in the academy, worked day and night across the country to spread the latest version of the small seal script, and made the small seal script the standard writing system for the whole country.

Afterwards, at Zhao Ji's "active" request, the academy was widely opened. As the chief academic officer of the Xianyang Academy, she set an example by sending teachers from the academy and, with the financial support of Cheng Jiao, went to various places to open schools for children's enlightenment.

At Cheng Jiao's suggestion, the paper mill and printing workshop jointly built by the Mohist school and the Gongshu family in the Xianyang Academy operated around the clock, continuously printing enlightenment reading materials customized by Cheng Jiao for learned people, as well as general knowledge reading materials, with a special emphasis on printing advanced knowledge in agriculture and handicrafts.

In order to show his support for Cheng Jiao, Lu Buwei directly donated the "Lüshi Chunqiu" which he had spent decades to compile, and provided 50,000 gold coins in support.

At the end of the year, Cheng Jiao dragged Han Fei and Zhang Liang, who had no choice but to become good people, and under the auspices of Lu Buwei, they unified the weights and measures, as well as the currency.

In order to make this easier to implement throughout the country.

He donated most of the gold coins in the palace, and asked Lu Buwei and Changping Jun to follow suit to replenish the somewhat empty treasury, which would be used as a fund for developing the economy and promoting various tasks.

It was another snowy day, and Cheng Jiao and the Moon Goddess observed the celestial phenomena and the fortune of the world at night.

The Moon Goddess held Gao Yan, who was almost one year old, in her arms all the time, and she never took her eyes off him since she gave birth to Gao Yan. She let Da Siming and the Black and White sisters take charge of the power of the leader of the Yin-Yang family for the time being, and she stayed in the mansion to raise the baby with her senior sister.

"Don't worry, sir. Now that the six kingdoms have been destroyed, it's only a matter of time before their destiny converges and unifies them."

Cheng Jiao shook his head slightly: "I am not worried. Donghuang Taiyi said that if I don't unify the seven countries within three years after collecting the bronze treasure box, I will be backfired by the luck of each country. He did not lie to me, but now this crisis has been resolved, even if the luck of the world has not yet been unified.

I was just wondering when to open the Blue Dragon Seven Stars. "

The Moon Goddess said softly, "It's best to wait until the destiny of the world is completely unified."

Cheng Jiao nodded: "I think so too."

In the original novel, the six kingdoms had already been destroyed by the Qin State, but Donghuang Taiyi did not go out to sea until 10 or 20 years later.

Although the Magic Sound Box has not been found and the Mirage has not been built, it is not because the Qin State's destiny has not yet been completely unified.

He didn't want to wait until ten or twenty years later to open the Seven Stars of the Blue Dragon.

My current cultivation has reached its limit and cannot be improved any further.

The feeling of being able to break through but not being able to do so would make anyone feel frustrated.

This year has passed, and he plans to continue to promote Qin's reforms next year and strive to lay the foundation within two years.

the following year.

Cheng Jiao became more tough than usual.

Even the title of king that was promised to him by Brother Zheng was announced to the world, indicating that he did not want it.

Then he began to reform from top to bottom, abolishing feudal states and establishing counties.

It affected the interests of countless new and old nobles.

But after Cheng Jiao led them to freeze the Wei River with one sword and cut off the top of the mountain with another sword, they became obedient.

They were ready to start their plan to outlive Cheng Jiao, and they all said privately that they would wait until Cheng Jiao died before doing anything else.

After receiving the information from Jingwei, Cheng Jiao smiled.

It’s longer than his life. He can live at least three to five hundred years and can outlast these old men.

Ever since Cheng Jiao started to touch these roots, Zheng Ge has been worried and scared from time to time.

Those old nobles and great aristocrats were rare in their soberness, and no one chose to assassinate Zheng Ge.

He was also afraid that if he was not careful, Zheng Ge would die, allowing Cheng Jiao to succeed to the throne, which would usher in the end of the aristocracy.

Cheng Jiao witnessed everything and knew that the influence of the nobles would be difficult to eliminate in a short period of time. Now they were only cooperating honestly under his pressure, and were using various means in private to obstruct his tasks.

He didn't care about this, it was something he expected.

As long as he stays around for a dozen or dozens of years, no matter how complicated and intricate it is, it will gradually fall apart.

same year.

Under Cheng Jiao's proposal and intervention, the embryonic system of three dukes and nine ministers was changed to the system of three provinces and six ministries to strengthen centralization.

In a small area of ​​Xianyang, they tried out pilot projects such as the recommendation system, the nine-rank system, and the imperial examination system.

The end of the year.

Accompanied by Cheng Jiao, Ying Zheng led hundreds of officials to Mount Tai to perform the Fengshan ceremony.

Cheng Jiao took out the Heshi Bi and engraved "Mandate from Heaven, may you live long and prosper forever" on it.

Ying Zheng then used this as his imperial seal and announced to the world that he was the First Emperor.

Another year has passed, and Cheng Jiao feels helpless.

This luck is like a donkey.

If he does not quickly stabilize and strengthen the Qin State, his luck will slowly gather together.

This is really too much. If you hit me, I will leave. If you don’t hit me, I will stop.

The third year.

Under pressure from Cheng Jiao, all the disciples of Mohism and Gongshujia began to rush to various places to engage in large-scale construction.

Under Cheng Jiao's guidance, Old Man Ban and Six-Fingered Black Knight made an ancient version of cement and started building the road directly with it.

At the same time, under the accidental operation of Ban Laotou and Gongshu Ban, they understood the basic principles of smelting and began to completely get rid of bronze, fully mine iron ore, and smelt steel.

By the way, he borrowed the steam engine drawings designed by the Six-Fingered Black Knight and designed the initial railway, which greatly increased transportation efficiency.

It would be better to collect weapons from various countries, gather them in Xianyang, and make twelve golden men for future steel consumption.

fourth year.

Thanks to the promotion of farm varieties and improved high-yield crops such as potatoes and corn in the first and second years, enough seeds were accumulated in the third year to cover one-third of the planting area, so that grain output in the fourth year tripled compared to four or five years ago.

During this period, thanks to Cheng Jiao, Yue Shen ordered the disciples of various departments of Yin Yang School to focus on astrology, learn visual observation and weather forecasting, and disperse to various places, which was able to avoid many production cuts caused by extreme weather.

It was also in this year that with enough food, the number of people rebelling in various places decreased significantly, the situation in various places calmed down a lot, and the bloody rebellions gradually became a thing of the past.

As long as they had enough to eat and Ying Zheng spent a lot of money on publicity.

Except for some diehard elements, the remnants of the six kingdoms gradually forgot their former country.

After experiencing the Spring and Autumn Period and the Seven Kingdoms War, the people, especially those living on the border, have become accustomed to being Zhao people today and Qin people tomorrow.

fifth year.

After years of development, with the help of Cheng Jiao, Nian Duan became the top doctor in the world. In the academy, he and his disciple Duanmu Rong trained nearly two thousand doctors who were capable of dealing with most diseases. He also donated medical books, used easy-to-understand colloquialisms, and printed them into books for doctors all over the world to study.

In the same year, students who had learned various specialties in the academy began to go to various places after graduation, applying what they had learned to promote the development of various industries such as medicine, agriculture, industry and commerce.

……

Cheng Jiao selected all the modern knowledge and common sense he knew according to the situation in Qin State, wrote it down with the ancient understanding, compiled it into a book, and gave it to Zheng Ge.

This year, the world has begun to settle down, and the fortune has completely gathered in Qin, and most developments have gradually started to get on the right track.

The reason is that in recent years, I have been following Zheng Ge's example and working overtime.

One of the reasons was that all the women in the mansion had been bound to him. But the panel was like dead, and the upgrade button was not lit.

If you think about it for a while, you will know that if you want to upgrade, you not only need to bind yourself to all the women, but also need to reach a certain level of cultivation.

The attribute points had almost lost their function. When he saw that in the Dharma-Ending Age, it would require one million attribute points to forcibly ascend to a realm above the heavens, he decisively gave up.

After so many years of hard work and almost conquering the whole world, he only obtained less than 100,000 attribute points. Wouldn't one million attribute points be the end of him?

Now, it is time to start opening the Seven Stars of the Azure Dragon.

Chang'an County.

Cheng Jiao's fiefdom.

In the fourth year, because what he did was so great, even though he repeatedly expressed that he did not want to be crowned king, Zheng Ge still directly announced to the world that he was crowned King of Chang'an.

And he is the number one king in the world. According to Zheng Ge, he may also be the last king.

The entire Chang'an County, all the land and population, belong to Cheng Jiao, and Cheng Jiao has the right to dispose of them at any time.

In order to accommodate his many beauties and children.

With the sponsorship of his father-in-law, Lu Buwei, he built a mansion covering an area of ​​2,000 acres in Chang'an County.

However, when Cheng Jiao was preparing to relax for a few months and communicate more with the women in the mansion, Zheng Ge in Xianyang, facing Lu Buwei's report, suddenly realized that due to Cheng Jiao's series of operations, he almost forgot about Cheng Jiao's lifelong event.

He decisively issued a death order, asking Wei Zhuang to go to Chang'an County to invite his brother-in-law Cheng Jiao over.

Cheng Jiao was a little confused as he looked at Wei Zhuang, who came to his house with a cool look on his face.

What the hell, let him get married quickly?
He suddenly remembered that three years ago, after he was crowned, Zheng Ge forced him to get married, and also invited his mother, Madam Han, and Queen Dowager Huayang to marry.

But I was not in the mood at that time, so I just flew away on my sword.

Coupled with the drastic changes that followed, Zheng Ge almost died from working overtime, so he had a quiet few years.

Now it seems that Brother Zheng has some free time.

Cheng Jiao suddenly asked, "Brother Wei Zhuang, aren't you planning to get married?"

Wei Zhuang said calmly: "I don't need it."

He has now given up his previous obsession. It is really that Cheng Jiao is too capable. He can no longer see any hope for the six countries to revive.

The most important thing is that the situation in Qin is pretty good now, at least much better than when seven kingdoms coexisted.

With the guidance of his senior brother, and Han Fei waving his sleeves and taking Zhang Liang to travel, he now has nothing to let go of, at least his senior brother is there.

The corners of Cheng Jiao's mouth twitched slightly, and he said, "I don't need it."

"Brother Wei Zhuang, please tell Brother Wang that we will get married after I open the Seven Stars of Azure Dragon."

Wei Zhuang paused and said, "The Seven Stars of Azure Dragon? Do you really want to open this legendary forbidden object?"

"Yes, the road ahead is blocked. If we want to continue, I'm afraid we can only open the Seven Stars of Azure Dragon."

Wei Zhuang suddenly recalled his meeting with his senior brother and teacher Guiguzi three years ago.

The teacher also said that his path was broken and he had reached the limit of his life.

"I'll take it to you. This is a gift for Zixia. Please give it to her for me."

Cheng Jiao nodded and took the mini wooden car that was obviously made using Guiguzi techniques.

Seeing Wei Zhuang leave, Cheng Jiao came to Zi Nu's courtyard. A little girl about four years old jumped over and lay on Cheng Jiao.

This is his and Zi Nu's daughter, named Ying Zixia.

"Father, what is this?"

Cheng Jiao held the small wooden cart and said with a smile, "This is the small wooden cart your uncle Wei Zhuang made for you. Do you like it?"

"Oh, it's Uncle Xiaozhuang, where is he?"

Zixia looked behind Cheng Jiao with her beautiful big eyes, but did not see a single figure.

Cheng Jiao said, "He just left for Xianyang and is busy."

Apart from Gai Nie, the only person who could call Wei Zhuang "Xiao Zhuang" and not make Wei Zhuang angry is probably the daughter of him and Zi Nu.

Zi Nu watched the interaction between Cheng Jiao and his daughter with a smile on her face. Living with Cheng Jiao for so many years made her feel at ease and happy.

"What is Wei Zhuang doing here?"

Cheng Jiao whispered in Zi Nu's ear: "Let me marry you quickly."

Zi Nu's beautiful eyes lit up, "What do you mean?"

Because of Cheng Jiao's relationship, she was previously a princess of the Zhou royal family, and had been recognized by the King of Qin and her name was vindicated throughout the country.

"When I open the Seven Stars of Azure Dragon, I will marry you both."

Cheng Jiao said with a smile while holding his daughter Zixia.

With his current strength, status, and influence.

Once the marriage takes place, the whole world will watch.

But he also figured it out, why should he do things according to the requirements of this era.

Marry whoever you want, marry as many wives as you want.

The main idea is to do whatever you like.

Zi Nu leaned on Cheng Jiao's shoulder and talked softly about the past.

Time passed quickly.

After coaxing Zixia to sleep, Cheng Jiao took Zinu to prepare for tonight's nightlife.

They were already an old couple, and with Cheng Jiao's training, Zi Nu knew a lot of strange ways to play, and could easily satisfy Cheng Jiao.

At night, Zi Nu, who was already unable to continue, whispered in Cheng Jiao's arms: "Nong Yu will come over in a while, you should pamper her more."

Seeing Cheng Jiao's somewhat surprised expression, Zi Nu laughed softly and said, "Nong Yu was originally going to come and sleep with me tonight. Calculating the time, she is almost here now."

Cheng Jiao understood immediately: "You really care about others."

Zi Nu said quietly, "Nong Yu is very pitiful. She gave birth to a child for you, but you treat her worse than you treat Madam Hu."

The whole mansion knew that Cheng Jiao had taken in Madam Hu, Concubine Hu and Nong Yu. It was also clear that Cheng Jiao was somewhat partial to Madam Hu compared to Nong Yu.

For this reason, Nanyue often felt sad in front of her.

Cheng Jiao was just about to say something when he heard the sound of footsteps approaching.

"Well, don't worry, I will pay attention."

After he finished speaking, as soon as the door was opened, Cheng Jiao directly picked up Nong Yu and placed her in front of Zi Nu.

The beautiful Nongyu didn't see Cheng Jiao clearly, but she felt the familiar embrace and asked with some surprise, "Sir?"

Cheng Jiao didn't say anything. Under Zi Nu's smiling gaze, he quickly peeled off Nong Yu's clothes.

There were too many women in his house, and even though they often slept together, it was difficult to avoid ignoring other women.

Especially a woman like Nongyu Mi Lian, who never argues or quarrels and never acts like a spoiled child and asks for things in front of him.

It seems he needs to pay more attention.

As a human being, you should treat everyone equally.
