Controlling mountains and rivers since the Warring States Period

Chapter 328 Dongying Qi State

"Zhu Bao is making new policies!"

"Young people are indeed full of energy!"

In the first year of Jianyuan,

As the emperor ordered the gathering of many virtuous and literary people from all over the country, feeling that he had capable people to assist him, he began to carry out drastic reforms.

He issued many new decrees.

They wanted to change the decadent atmosphere in the court and the country caused by decades of "inaction", as well as the expansion of local powerful forces due to the court's laissez-faire attitude.

The dead ghosts in the underworld all expressed their agreement with this.

But they also said, "The emperor's reform this time will not succeed."

He Bo was bored, so he sat on the beach at the coast of the East China Sea with his legs stretched out like a winnowing basket.

Hearing this, he asked Shang Yang, who was experienced in innovation, "Why don't you think highly of Zhu Bao?"

Pig treasure,

It was the gods and ghosts who gave the nickname to the Han Emperor Liu Che.

Because his life was too smooth,
My father doted on me especially.
Therefore, He Bo believes that he is truly a "pig in the palm of your hand".

of course,

The origin of this nickname,
It also has a lot to do with the fact that after he died and went to the underworld, Liu Qi was beaten up by the "Alliance of Husband-Sorrowful People" established by his own three concubines in the harem, and he screamed like a pig!
His Majesty was trying to seek help from his ancestors.
As a result, Liu Bang and Liu Ying ran away faster than the other, leaving their descendants alone to face this horror.

When Shang Jun heard this nickname, he couldn't help but twitch his face.

He wanted to say something, but was afraid that the willful ghosts would mock him, so he could only answer his question obediently:
"He is so young and his foundation is not very strong. How can he make the government and the people obey him with just a few imperial edicts?"

"But when Ying Quliang succeeded to the throne, he was only one year older than Zhu Bao. How could he appoint you to carry out reforms?"

Shang Yang immediately replied arrogantly, "My talent is far superior to the people Liu Che found... How can we generalize!"

"Besides, how can the Qin State and the Han Court be the same?"

During the reign of Qin Xiaogong,
Internally, "innovation" is a tradition left by our ancestors.

Externally, "innovation" is a necessary means to maintain the country.

The politics of governing the country,
Change at any time.

No change!

No nobleman in any country would want to be at home, holding his beautiful girl and watching singing and dancing, and suddenly be destroyed by the enemy!
Therefore,
Innovating and strengthening the country was absolutely right at that time!
Who objects?
Who is the enemy of the country!

Gan Long and Du Zhi, the two conservatives back then, had no good endings during their lifetime or after their death!

But the Han court was different.

Three generations of inaction have become a routine.

Disciples of Huang-Lao school of thought filled the court and the country.

And in reality, the Han court is not facing too strong external pressure at present.

Even if there are Huns,

But it is difficult to shake the foundation of the Han Dynasty.

In that case,

Why do we need to do something drastic?
The more eagerly the young emperor shouted about his determination to reform,
This made the old officials think that this was nothing more than the passion unique to young people.

Wait for it to grow for a few years.

Become sensible.
Smooth,
You will naturally understand.

Some things are easier said than done.

"Right!"

"Without external pressure, there is no motivation to take ruthless action internally."

People are lazy.

Who would like to eat something bitter?
He Bo said to Shang Yang with a smile.

Then he asked him curiously, "Do you think Liu Che will give up after this fall?"

Shang Yang said, "No."

"Dr. Ximen secretly observed him for a long time and concluded that he was a very stubborn and extremely confident person."

Even if you fall,
Liu Che would not think that he was wrong.

He will only think that there is something wrong with other people or even the whole world!
This kind of people,

But he would not obey the wishes of certain ministers and would stay where he fell.

He would order angrily,

Fill the hole on the ground, then continue to drive your horse, galloping on the road, running towards your set goal.

Hearing this, He Bo nodded and said, "That's great!"

this world,

We need some people who are full of confidence and unwilling to turn back.

Make the original road smooth and unobstructed,

Then, based on that foundation, we forge new paths.

finished,

He Bo stood up and started today's sea-hunting activity again.

When he dug a deep hole in the mudflat and stretched out his hands to grab the large sea anemone hidden inside,
His progress bar suddenly refreshed!

"Ok?"

"Is this... the river on the other side of Japan?"

He Bo withdrew his hand, touched his head, and looked towards the sea.

……

On the other side of the East China Sea,
A young man carefully tapped the surface of Jingshui with a stick.

Layer upon layer of waves began to rise.

Subsequently,

A large fish emerged with its belly upturned.

It slightly flapped its fins and, pushed by the current, moved closer to the shore.

The young man felt that it was rowing a little too slowly.
So he stretched out his stick again and tried to pull up the big fish.

The big fish didn't react at all. It was as quiet as if it was dead, allowing the boy to pull it out of the water and onto the shore, then grab it.

"Wake up!"

"Don't sleep!"

The young man grabbed the fish's fat middle body with both hands and shook it violently.

And with his efforts,
The big fish's lifeless eyes regained a little spirit.

It opened its mouth.
The fins open.

Tail up -

He yawned loudly.

He stretched himself comfortably. "What a nice weather today!"

The boy heard the big fish greet him with still some sleepiness.

"Yes, the sun is very warm today!"

"But you're still sleeping!"

The boy couldn't help but sigh, "Why can't you be more active?"

How can you be a ghost or god?

But you like to have the face of a big-headed fish, staring with a pair of dead fish eyes, and float in the water with your belly facing up?
“That’s so tiring!”

He Bo twisted it gently from his hand and fell back into the water.

But this time, instead of just turning over on his belly, he rolled over so that the sun could shine on the side of his body.

He said, "Why would I want to flick my tail when I can just float with the current?"

"You are so lazy!"

"Hey, there's nothing to do anyway, I can just lie down!"

Here,

It is the southernmost island in Japan.

When the storm swept across the land in the spring of the last few years,

The surging waves finally lifted the jar containing He Bo's clone out of the cracks in the stone forest in the sea, and washed it into the river named "Jingshui" by the people of Qi.

Therefore, He Bo settled here.

He is too lazy to die.
He was too lazy to even climb out of his own jar.

It just swam around in the water and finally found a hole dug by shrimps and crabs in the river.

The hole was perfectly shaped.
Perfect for stuffing Hebo's jar.

So he overbearingly drove away the original owner of the house, stuck the jar in the hole, and continued to sleep happily -

Anyway,

They all work for the main body.

He doesn't want to be a poor cow or horse that eats grass and is milked!

Life can be muddled,

Then mix it up.

Incense and so on.

He doesn't care!
Even if there are villages around,

The river is large enough for fishing.

But He Bo just ignored everyone and continued to sleep soundly.

Until the following summer,
A young boy who came over to catch fish with a fish basket happened to touch the jar at the bottom of the water.

He thought he had found something good, so he concentrated his energy, squatted slightly, and pulled He Bo out of the hole.

Just like someone pulling out the cork from a wine bottle that has been sealed for a long time,
The boy heard a "pop" sound.
When he looked down again, he saw an ordinary jar in his hand.

The jar is heavy.
There is a very ugly big-headed fish painted on the surface.

The lid is integrated with the can and cannot be opened.

Driven by curiosity,

The boy wanted to smash the jar open to see what was inside.

then,

He Bo was naturally woken up by him.

The ghost, with a buzzing head and having been woken up by someone, jumped out of the jar and started a fight with the boy.

The two men fought from the shore to the shallow water.

Then they fought from the shallow water to the nearby grass,

The road was almost obliterated by the fighting.
Only then did he stop and turn his enemies into friends.

And that time,
It was also the only time the boy saw He Bo in human form.

In the following days,

This ghost who is addicted to sleep can only pretend to be a corpse in Jingshui River in the guise of a bighead fish and pollute the river water.

……

"What are you looking for me for?"

After one side of his body was tanned nicely, He Bo turned over and tanned the other side.

He opened his mouth wide and asked the boy why he came.

Because I am lazy.

The other party also knows that he is lazy.
So I won’t come over to disturb He Bo easily.

otherwise,

The other party will then see an extremely lively, hyperactive and irritable ghost driven by his morning grumpiness.

"I'm going to Zhuxia!"

The boy just smiled and told him:
"The large ship that can cross the sea has been repaired. The king has ordered the recruitment of some young people from all over the country to follow the fleet to the place where our ancestors once lived."

young people,
It is easiest to learn and accept new knowledge.

The King of Qi needs these people to go to their ancestral land and bring some advanced experience and technology back to Japan.
At the same time, he also hoped to train a group of young sailors by sailing on the ship, so as to provide convenience for Qi State to cross the sea and travel between Japan and its ancestral land in the future.

"You were chosen?"

"I'm selected!"

The boy patted his chest proudly.

"In two days, I will go to the capital to receive the king's warning, and then I will board a ship from the nearby port and go out to sea!"

"That's why I came here today to inform you of this matter, so that you won't wake up and think I'm dead of old age!"

He Bo spat water in his face with disdain.

"Humph!"

"I won't sleep like that!"

He looked at the proud face of the young man in front of him and heard him say:
"Cherish these two days. Once I go to my ancestral land, you won't be able to see me again!"

He Bo couldn't help but think to himself:
Innocent,

The main body is in Zhuxia,

You can't escape from my grasp wherever you go!

snort!
I won't tell you about this now.

When we meet,

I will definitely give you a big surprise!
