Controlling mountains and rivers since the Warring States Period

Chapter 315 Reunion (Part )
"This……"

"Is this really good?"

The burial place of Zhao Chao, the founder of Xin Xia.
Zhao Mu, King Wen of Xia, who was highly respected and admired by the people of Xinxia and was praised for his "rebuilding" of the country, was holding a shovel and digging a hole in the grave of his ancestor.

beside,

King Cheng of Xia, Zhao Gu, was fanning his father.

Although both father and son have become dead ghosts,

But this did not prevent Zhao Gu from feeling that his father had a hard time.

He wanted to share the work with his father, but He Bo stopped him:
"This kind of thing should naturally be done by the closest descendants!"

"Besides, you don't even have a temple name, are you qualified to touch the head of the ancestor?"

then,

Zhao Gu could only huddle on the side, watching with tears in his eyes as his father was forced to dig up the burial mound on his ancestral tomb, and then stuffed the gifts brought by ghosts and gods into the repaired "burial pit" one by one, and then covered them with soil again.

The branch was planted nearby and soon grew new roots, which stood straight and firmly in the ground.

The Xia King and his son witnessed this scene with their own eyes.
And I know what state I am in now.
So I became even more awed by the power of ghosts and gods.

They basically didn't believe this when they were alive.
Who knew he had been dead for so long?

He can also bathe in God's grace and revive himself.

of course,

Even if we know that there are indeed divine beings in the world,
The two generations of Xia kings did not regret at all, and their actions of striking hard at the various sects in Sindhu during their lifetime -

Look at the gods of my country,

So humble, so polite,
He interferes with the human world at will, not according to his own will, and manipulates all living beings like puppets or clay statues.

They are nothing like the wild gods worshipped in Sindhu, whose emotions are out of control and whose brains are as messy as if they were stabbed by their believers!
fortunately,

Although I never worshipped ghosts and gods in my lifetime,
But he was not tempted by those wild gods.

otherwise,

How should we face our ancestors and the gods from our homeland?

They are even more fortunate.

He had shown enough friendship and support to Ying Qin, which made Ying Pijiang give him a magic jar.

otherwise,

How did it come to this day?
Especially Zhao Gu!
Maybe it's because of blood relationship.
Maybe it's because he is a filial person.

Anyway, when he died,
Zhao Gu's soul floated towards his father's "Confucian Temple" in a daze, and was sucked into the storm of the small white jar and preserved until now.

Although the father and son lived in the same can, it was a bit crowded.

But as long as I can make it to today,
It's all worth it!
……

"Work quickly!"

“I’m still waiting to go play somewhere else!”

When King Xia Wen slowed down his movements because of his surging emotions, He Bo urged him on.

I saw the ghost waving a large leaf picked up from somewhere to fan himself, sitting on a big rock next to him with his legs crossed, with an ugly face of an overseer.

“I’ll be right soon!”

“I’ll be right soon!”

Zhao Mu quickly replied, and the shovel in his hand moved faster and more powerfully.

And when the matter of "breaking ground on the ancestral grave" is completed,
He Bocai stood up and began to burn the ancient letters.

these things,

It is what he received, and what he will give away.

There is no need to trouble others to intervene.

As the flames gradually dwindled and died out, the objects wrapped in the fire turned into wisps of green smoke and floated into the air.

He Bo clapped his hands, turned around and walked down the mountain without staying any longer.

……

The tombs of the Zhao Dynasty,
It is a place surrounded by mountains and water.

In recent years,

The Xinxia court dug several new reservoirs nearby, making the area more moist and gentle.

Such scenery and coolness,

On an autumn day like this, it is easy to attract people to come here to cool off and relax.

Young people from Qin Ying came at the invitation of their friends to see the source of the rise of Xin Xia and the place where Qin Taizu once climbed and traveled.

Since the exchanges between Qin and Xia were not limited to politics, there were also additional exchanges such as exchanging classics and historical materials, introducing talents from Xia to Qin, etc.
So when the Qin delegation marched into Yangguan in a mighty manner, the ambassadors holding the staffs of honor dispersed some of the younger and more eloquent people and sent them to the cities of Xinxia, asking them to use their abilities to recruit some of the descendants of the Xia state and migrate to the West Sea with them.

Who would have thought?
After a hundred years,

The Jiaonan City in the Western Regions has become desolate.

But the business of “talent export” is still booming?
The importing country of that year,

Now we are also able to export our own specialty products.

When He Bo squatted beside a small stream in the mountains, wondering whether he should "start over" here and take the first step to conquer the Xindu River, he met the people from Qinxia who came to visit.

The two former kings did not show up, but just followed He Bo quietly, occasionally pointing at the people opposite and saying:
“These are the descendants of so-and-so.”

"I have seen this child before."

When the other party met He Bo, he saw that he was handsome and had fair skin, and knew at a glance that he came from an extraordinary family. He showed some enthusiasm and asked him what he was doing here.

He Bo said, "I came here to see my friend."

"To be able to befriend a gentleman like you, he must also be a virtuous person!" The other party sighed in agreement, "Then why not meet him now?"

He Bo laughed and told him, "The grass on my friend's grave is three feet tall!"

"You'd better not see him!"

The people from Qin were a little surprised when they heard this. "This is the tomb of the founder of the Xia Dynasty. Are there other people buried here as well?"

The new summer companions who came with him explained to each other:
"The scenery here is very beautiful, and the ancestor requested a simple burial, so the mausoleum built is not very big."

"Moreover, as times change, we also need to consider the resting place of future generations... Therefore, people are allowed to be buried around this mountain."

As for the hidden danger of robbing the ancestral tomb?

joke,

Since this place can be used as a summer resort for the public,

It can be seen that there is actually no treasure worth protecting here.

"The Tomb of the First Ancestor" sounds grand and noble.
But the people of Xinxia know clearly:
At the beginning of the founding of the country, Xinxia was so poor. Where did it get the manpower and resources to build a luxurious tomb for its ancestor?
After hearing the explanation, the Qin people sighed and said, "So that's how it is!"

"But our country's great ancestor also did this."

Subsequently,

He started talking about the Qin State in the West Sea, and took this opportunity to talk about the similarities between the Ying Qin State and the New Xia State, and also made a summary -

Anyway,

Xinxia is now strong and prosperous,

The Qin Dynasty will surely become powerful and prosperous in the future!

Therefore, if you follow the Qin delegation back and become a "talent", your future will be absolutely secure!
In order to attract others' attention and stir up their emotions,
The Qin man who was speaking specifically told the story of Taizu Ying Pijiang over and over again.

No matter where you put it,

The story of a "last prince" who lost his country and was forced to leave his hometown to seek a living in a distant foreign land. After a long journey and countless hardships, he successfully rebuilt the ancestral temple and revived the country.
It will always attract a lot of attention and admiration.

In the West Sea,
Because Qin Ying's long whip had already whipped many barbarians, and his martial arts had spread to the ears of Rome.

So the poets and scholars there all praised this "Prince's Revenge" starring Ying Pijiang, with the West Sea as the backdrop and the blood of barbarians as the stage.

The Macedonian state, which had been controlled by Rome,

In order to gain the support of the Qin people in the planned rebellion that followed, he even sent a theater troupe to turn this true story into a time-consuming and grand drama, hoping that the Qin people would be moved by his sincerity and lend a helping hand.

Unfortunately, the Qin people were pragmatic.

I am not used to the theatrical style of the Greek region.
He did not nod in response to such a request.

And the barbarians are like this,
Naturally, people within the Qin State admired Ying Pijiang even more.

As a foreign country that has been established for less than 50 years, the Ying Qin has only survived to its third generation.

In order to consolidate the foundation,

In order to rally the people,

In addition to their need for continuous victories, which would allow the Qin people to look down upon their neighbors,
We also need to create a "hero" as an idol in people's hearts.

Therefore,
It is natural that the great ancestor Ying Pijiang would be greatly praised.

According to the Qin people's words, if Ying Pijiang had succeeded to the throne after the death of the First Emperor, the black bird flag might have been flying over the sky of the Central Plains!
For this,

He Bo just listened and silently took note of the various flatteries the person in front of him expressed to Ying Pijiang, as well as some of the "Taizu secrets" he revealed when he was excited.

He planned to go to the West Sea in the future, sneak into the ancestral temple of Ying Qin, drag Ying Pijiang out and compare his accounts one by one to see how many great achievements he had accomplished in his glorious life.

"laugh!"

"Anyway, if Liu Bang heard someone bragging about washing his feet with the blood of barbarians and drinking wine with the heads of his enemies... he probably wouldn't be able to hold it in!"

"However, being praised so much by future generations is better than the treatment given to Zhao Chao!"

Compared with Ying Pijiang,

Gongzi Chao died early after eating.

At that time, the customs were relatively simple.

As a result, his descendants wanted to praise this ancestor to add glory to his life, but they didn't know what to praise.

He could only change the subject and praise King Wen of Xia.

Zhao Mu, who was standing by, heard the ghosts and gods muttering like this and thought that they were secretly accusing him of not repairing the tomb of his ancestors after he ascended the throne, but only focusing on building a luxurious tomb for himself.

So he lowered his head in shame, turned around and faced a big tree to reflect on his mistakes.
