Chronicles of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 31 31. Unpredictable Yin and Yang
Brain cancer is not discovered at the beginning.

She often had headaches, sometimes vomited, and her eyesight deteriorated sharply... But in today's environment, nine out of ten people have these minor problems, and Qin Shi didn't really care.

After all, it is better to take an ibuprofen and get better results quickly than to wait in line at the hospital for a whole day.

Until she suddenly fell while walking, as if she had lost control of her limbs.

Later, at the hospital, the kind-faced doctor softly asked, "Are you stressed out at work? It's a nice day now, have you been traveling?"

In March, the weeping crabapples in front of the hospital swayed in the wind, and the steam rising from the sky looked like bright pink clouds.

The spring willows on the river bank sway gracefully, and the new green seems to bring joy to everyone.

Yes, it’s such nice weather, why doesn’t she go traveling?
She raised her phone and snapped dozens of photos, posting them on her social media feed, which drew countless likes. But she didn't know who to send the photo of the test report she most wanted to take.

Now, those photos opened and shrank under Ji Heng's fingers. This ambitious leader of the world had an unimaginable keenness.

It's just a landscape photo.

He could even generously promise that "the king's army would trample on it." His words and actions that controlled people's hearts showed that he was a natural-born emperor.

Qin Shi chuckled, her eyes gleaming with tears in the candlelight. Then she said, "Your Majesty, I have no enemies. What I am fighting against is destiny."

"It is destiny that I can meet the king."

Ji Heng raised his brows.

He didn't care about Qin Shi's sadness, nor did he have to think about how her pain was related to those miracle drugs that could relieve pain but not cure the disease.

He simply said proudly, "Life and death are determined by fate. But my search for immortality to prolong my life, my practice of archery and horse riding, my appointment of a royal physician to strengthen my body, and my rise to become the Emperor are also determined by fate."

"Destiny can be followed or taken away."

"Qin Qing, you only need to be loyal to my Qin State. If you have any requests, I will grant them."

He promised again.

Qin Shi also bowed solemnly: "Yes."

Ji Heng looked at the atlas again, flipping through it for a while before pointing to an ordinary stone tablet that showed the road and asking, "Why are there so many foreign characters in the atlas?"

Although he couldn't read, the square, square strokes were undoubtedly Chinese characters. Just like the difference between the bronze inscriptions and large seal characters of the Zhou Dynasty and the large seal characters of today, they are essentially similar and can be seen at a glance.

And why are there other characters under these square characters?
Ji Heng was referring to the English tour below.

Qin Shi looked at it and was also helpless at this moment: "Your Majesty, our Celestial Empire is a great country. When facing foreign countries on the border, we should be tolerant and considerate."

"The text is thoughtful, but it's really not worth mentioning."

However, Ji Heng's eyes were wide with confusion. "Since they are foreign nations on the border, we should allow them to pay tribute and become our subjects, and grant them the opportunity to learn the Great Qin language. Why do we need to do this?"

The implication is that since these are other countries that do not have written language, wouldn't it be better to just conquer them and make them our own?
Qin Shi: ...What an inflated king!
But considering that the Qin State was now an unprecedented unified dynasty with a territory of 340 million square kilometers, Ji Heng's ambition was not difficult to understand.

After all, during the Tang Dynasty, they were able to conquer over 1200 million square kilometers! If Xuanzang had gone a few years later to seek Buddhist scriptures, he wouldn't have had to leave the country.

She could not use the peacetime mentality of building friendly relations with neighbors to measure the ruling intentions of the emperors of the unified dynasty.

So I had to smile.

But Ji Heng suddenly became thoughtful: "Where you came from, you've lost before, right?"

Qin Shi said nothing.

Where she came from... Your Majesty, do you think she came from the future, or is there a kingdom of gods outside of Qin?
She guessed: both.

This is indeed the case.

Ji Heng thought: If Qin Qing is really a person who will live for thousands of years in the future of his Great Qin, if he sees this sage king who will never appear in the world, how can he not immediately admire and worship him?

If it was a country of gods and men other than the Qin State, why did its words, deeds and addresses all follow the Qin code?

As the King of Qin, he proudly concluded that his great Qin would also become such a kingdom of heaven and man in the future. And Qin Qing came from this place.

He didn't ask any more questions, but the Book of Changes said: "Yin and Yang are unpredictable. Yin and Yang are unpredictable, which is called God. People should be in awe of all mysterious things."

It is also said: A gentleman is cautious and does not go out.

Only by keeping confidentiality with caution and not seeking anything recklessly can you avoid disaster.

With this fortuitous encounter, Qin Qing has made contributions to the country, which is his destiny.

If you just keep pursuing it, it will harm the way of nature and the loss will outweigh the gain.

Seeing that Qin Shi didn't want to talk about the Kingdom of Heaven and Man at this moment, Ji Heng didn't care: "Victory and defeat are common in the military. Our Great Qin also used the strategy of Lianheng and achieved success over several generations. Only then did we divide the six kingdoms and transform them into our own."

It's just a process that every powerful dynasty must go through.

Judging from Qin Qing's current appearance, his dignity must be intact and his country's power is strong.

Qin Shi admired his ambition; after all, learning foreign languages ​​was hard work. But continuing the conversation would be dangerous.

Qin Shi decisively switched the picture: "My lord, would you like to see something else?"

Ji Heng, however, let go of his hand and shook his head: "It's late, Qin Qing, please settle down early."

Qin Shi was stunned.

The watch shows that it is only a little after 9 o'clock, which is naturally late at night for ordinary ancient people.

But as diligent as the king is, he still has dozens of pounds of bamboo slips to read!
How could you bear to let her rest?

Seeing her stunned, Ji Heng couldn't help but relax his brows.

"I have examined thousands of pictures in this album, but my lamp oil is limited. I have wasted my time and effort without any success."

“It is better to calm your mind at night and follow the path you need tomorrow, so that the treasure can last longer.”

Just as Qin Qing said, even the atlases from different days were categorized one by one. I guess there must be some rules for organizing them. In just half an hour today, the energy consumed caused the green area in the upper right corner to shorten.

It is unwise to search blindly like this.

When Qin Shi finally left, silence returned to Zhangtai Palace. Zhou Ju calmed down from the shock and smiled, "Your Majesty is exceptionally tolerant and loving of Qin Qing."

Whether it was tolerance, comfort, or explanation... it was all beyond his usual patience.

Ji Heng, however, did not care: "He has great talent. The more tolerant I am, the more Qin Qing will respond with jade. He deserves a reward."

Compared with the rewards, his tolerance and consideration are just a matter of convenience, just like giving away gold, silver and other valuables casually, his tolerance can also be given away.

Not worth mentioning.

He was playing with his cell phone, his fingertips sliding across the photo album. He didn't know where he touched, but suddenly a burst of passionate music started!

The picture moved.

Before the two of them could be shocked, they heard another powerful and loud voice:

[Model soldiers take their positions——]

***
***
***
[That's right! I was looking at the Ping Pong scene (I can only briefly mention it so you can understand it)! But Ji Heng has a different understanding.]

The I Ching is about more than just fortune-telling; it requires understanding from a wide range of contexts. I'm only quoting briefly, so different interpretations may differ. For example, the line "I can draw a carved bow like a full moon" is often unintelligible to many people, referring to the astrological star Arc and Sagittarius.

"China" has been the name of our country since ancient times. It's mentioned in the Hezun from the reign of King Wu of Zhou, "Zezi Zhonghuo (China)," meaning "living in the center of the world." In ancient times, our country was simply China.

[There is also a Han Dynasty brocade armguard with seal characters that read "Five stars rise in the east, bringing good fortune to China."]

[The world map is available, but you can't take it out now, or you'll die (it's related to Zhaizizhong, I'll talk about it in detail later)]

[Then, it will be available on the shelves at 10:00 AM on April 1st (around this time). If you think it is well written, please support it by making your first order.]

(The archaeologist who discovered the five-star rise in the east of China was named Qi Dongfang. Haha! Whether it's Earth Online, destiny, or coincidence, it really makes me feel interesting.)
