This man... is too domineering!
Young Master, I admire it!
Thinking like this in my heart, I quickly picked five or six people, and hurried out of the Prime Minister's Mansion after Li Yang...
Coming to the street, the street, which should have been very lively, now seems to be less popular, as if more than half of the people in Xianyang City have disappeared.
Just when Li Yang was curious, he saw someone running on the street telling each other that the new decree of Daqin had come down and told everyone to take a look.
"Go, let's take a look too!"
Li Yang smiled, and led Li Youye to follow the crowd towards the place where the notice of the new law was posted.
Notices of the new decree were posted in three places in Xianyang City, one at the gate of the city, one at the gate of the palace, and one at the government office of Xianyang.
The prime minister's mansion was the closest to the palace gate, and not long after, Li Yang came to the gate of Xianyang Palace.
At this time, the entire square outside the palace gate was crowded with people, and everyone rushed to see the new decree.
"The heavens have opened their eyes, the heavens have opened their eyes! We ordinary people have a way to live, hahaha..."
An old man in his sixties stood leaning on a walking stick in front of the announcement of the new decree, looking up to the sky and screaming.I don't know if he was too excited, trembling all over, and finally knelt on the ground trembling, tears streaming down his face.
Behind the old man, there were people who were equally excited. It seemed that they were infected by the old man. Their eyes were red and their eyes were hot.
"Now it's all right, now we have a peaceful life..."
A man excitedly held his wife's hand, his eyes full of hope for the future.
Of course, conversations like this are everywhere, and they've waited too long for this day.
It was originally thought that after Qin swept the six countries and completed the unification, the days of war and chaos will be over, and the world will usher in peaceful days.However, what they didn't expect was that although the war was gone, it ushered in endless suffering caused by tyranny and corvee.
Now, Qin has been unified for more than ten years, and changes are finally ushered in. The sky of Qin is finally about to change.To become peaceful, to become hopeful.
Of course, the person who brought this gospel to the people of the world is deeply remembered in their hearts at this time. This person is Yanghou, Li Zhongcheng.
The people near the notice were all overwhelmed with excitement, while the people outside were still confused, so they asked one after another, "How did the new law change?"
At this time, the tearful old man stood up, leaned on the ground with his cane, and said in a loud voice: "Listen up, all of you, the new law abolishes continuous sitting. From now on, if one person breaks the law, only one person will be punished. Don't worry about it anymore." I'm implicated! Hehe..."
"Abandoned Lianzao! Abandoned Lianzao! Great, really great!"
Suddenly, the whole square erupted in joy.
At this time, the old man stretched out his hand to press down, motioning for everyone to be quiet.
When everyone saw it, they knew that the old man hadn't finished speaking, so the originally jubilant square became quiet in an instant.Everyone endured the excitement in their hearts and waited for the old man's next words.
"The Prime Minister's Mansion also has a new decree called "Public Law", which is a compendium of my Great Qin's New Qin Law. All subsequent Qin laws will be revised and formulated according to the general idea in the "Public Law"!" After the old man finished speaking, some Panting, as if using all the strength in my body.
Someone shouted: "Old man, what is written in "Public Law", why don't you keep talking about it?"
"That's right, read it quickly." The crowd shouted.
The old man nodded, and then said: "The "Public Law" says that the State of Qin is the State of Qin for all the people in the world, and the laws of the State of Qin will protect the safety of people's lives and property."
"The "Public Law" also says that the people of the Qin State are only obliged to perform corvee service during the slack season... Zhongcheng is our benefactor, he gave us a way to survive, woo..." the old man said , but in the end she burst into tears again, choked up for a while, but couldn't speak anymore.
The crowd below was extremely quiet at this time, because they were all stunned, and each of them looked blank, as if they were questioning whether they were dreaming.
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, the last piece of cheers!
I don't know who took the lead, and shouted "Great Qin Wannian! Emperor Wannian! Zhongcheng Wannian!", as a result, countless people present shouted in unison!
"Great Qin Wannian! Emperor Wannian! Zhongcheng Wannian!"
"Great Qin Wannian! Emperor Wannian! Zhongcheng Wannian!"
"Great Qin Wannian! Emperor Wannian! Zhongcheng Wannian!"
…………
Looking at the jubilant people in front of him, Li Yang felt very relieved and excited, and his eye sockets became slightly moist.
I just gave them a way to survive, and they are so grateful, it can be seen that the people of this era... are really suffering!
Amidst the bursts of shouting, as an idealist with the enthusiasm of a religious man, Li Yang truly felt that all he had done was worthwhile.There is nothing in this world that can be more meaningful than this career.
Li Yang was really happy and smiled brightly.
Li You, who was following behind him, was also full of smiles and pride at this time. As a member of the reform team, the people naturally felt extremely honored to support the reform so much.
At this time, Li Yang secretly asked him: "They call me Wannian, Your Majesty won't question me, will I?"
Li You was stunned: "It's just a eulogy, what's the crime?"
When Li Yang thought about it, he was right, it was still the Qin Dynasty at this time.In the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Spring and Autumn Period, "Wan Nian Wu Jiang" and "Mei Shou Wu Jiang" were commonly used eulogies and blessings, which could be used by anyone.It was not until Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that he began to call Long Live only to the Son of Heaven, and later on he was not allowed to call words such as Long Live and Long Live to people other than the Son of Heaven.
With no worries, Li Yang is happy to enjoy the blessings of the people resounding through the sky.

PS: I just found out today that this book can’t be listed on the list of new books and newcomers, because it was blocked and removed from the shelves before. After a few days of appeal, it was put on the shelves again, and it turned out that it was not considered a new book. It’s really hard.I said why the collection has not increased these days. It turns out that this book can only stay silently in the library, and cannot be listed on the new book list like other new books, so that more people can discover it.Alas, sad.
Chapter 20 Come Kill Me
Li Yang, who was intoxicated by the singing of the common people, did not realize that the several Habayashi sergeants following him brought him danger.
Among the crowd not far from him, three people also mixed outside the gate of Xianyang Palace.
One of the tall, imposing youths was looking behind Li Yang with a pair of sharp eyes. His eyes lit up, and he quickly pointed to the two elders behind him, "Uncle, look quickly, it is Habayashi Army!"
The two elders hurriedly looked in the direction the young man was pointing at, and they were also startled, but after taking a closer look, one of them couldn't help but shook his head: "Yu'er, don't be impulsive, that person is not a Yingzheng dog thief." !"
Another elder also said: "Yes, although this person has Habayashi's personal guards, but he is still young, maybe he is a son of the Ying family."
The young man named Yu'er stared at Li Yang, with killing intent flashing in his eyes: "Since you can't kill that bastard Ying Zheng, why don't you let me kill his son first!"
The two elders hurriedly stopped: "Yu'er, don't be reckless!"
The young man resented in his heart: "Uncle, I am the queen of heroes, and now the son of the enemy is in front of me. If you don't let me kill him, when will my Xiang family's great hatred be avenged!"
Yes, these three people are Xiang Liang, Xiang Bo and Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew after the generals of Chu State.
The three uncles and nephews of the Xiang family have been hiding in Xianyang City recently, in order to wait for an opportunity to assassinate Qin Shihuang and avenge Chu and the Xiang family.
However, how difficult it is to assassinate the first emperor, although the first emperor's dragon chariot had left the palace early this morning, the three of them, uncle and nephew, did not find any chance to assassinate because of the strict guards.
