Poverty Alleviation in Qin: A Sky-High Review of "I Am the Female Prime Minister of All Time&qu

The sky is vast and boundless, a magnificent and awe-inspiring sight.

At that moment, all the people stopped what they were doing and looked up at the sky.

Emperor Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng, was the first to composed himself and strode straight out of the main hall.

Several high-ranking officials who were discussing matters dared not delay and followed closely behind, filing out in single file.

Not only in the imperial palace, but also in Xianyang, officials of all ranks and noble families sensed the strange phenomenon of the celestial canopy appearing in the world and came out of their residences and government offices, their hearts filled with trepidation and curiosity.

The government and the public alike held their breath in anticipation.

No one knows what future changes this celestial curtain will reveal, or whether it will alter or overturn the current situation.

Xu Fu, at the very back of the crowd, must have felt incredibly miserable.

The sky was high above him, and it was not some divine decree, but clearly a deadly blade hanging over his head!

Xu Fu was terrified, every nerve on his body was taut, fearing that the scene on the screen would change in the next second and expose all his deceptions of the emperor.

He laid bare all his false tales before His Majesty and the world.

Once the truth comes out, it will be the day when Xu Fu is doomed.

Xu Fu lowered his head, not daring to look directly at the sky, and silently prayed that the sky would not mention him at all.

Fortunately, the heavens were on his side this time.

-

Against the backdrop of the sky, Tian Tian turned to the side, and the camera naturally panned to the ancient and majestic gate tower of the town behind her.

Blue stone paving, black tile roofs and flying eaves.

A weathered and imposing stone gate plaque hangs high in the center, with the four gilded characters "Peixian·De'an" written in a powerful and clear style, clearly catching everyone's eye.

That's right, this is Pei County, the ancient capital of Sishui, now De'an County in Jiangsu Province, a place that everyone is very familiar with—the very Pei County where the Song Dynasty chancellor once served for three years, deeply governing and benefiting the local people.

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd erupted in uproar.

Qinpei County, belonging to Sishui Prefecture, is located in the northeastern part of the Huaihe River Plain, at the junction of Jiangsu, Shandong, Henan, and Anhui provinces. It borders the Sishui River and the ancient Pei Marsh to the east, and is backed by the Mangdang Mountains to the southwest. The area boasts fertile soil and abundant water resources, with convenient water and land transportation.

This place was once situated between the former territories of Qi, Chu, and Wei, a gathering place for displaced people and wandering knights, and a key county town for the Qin Dynasty to control the eastern part of Guandong.

The cultures of Chu, the Confucianism of Qi and Lu, and the Legalist spirit of the Central Plains converged here, resulting in a fierce and martial populace. It was a gathering place for wandering knights, fugitives, and impoverished nobles, making it an "unstable region" that Qin Shi Huang was particularly wary of during his reign.

[Based solely on this complex and challenging situation, we can see that the reshaping of Pei County by Song Xiang over three years was no easy feat; the effort and strategy expended behind it are unimaginable to ordinary people. It took tireless work day and night, and extensive coordination, to reverse the long-standing chaotic situation in this area.]

Upon hearing this, the people of Pei County nodded in agreement.

Many elderly people gathered on the street, chatting about the old days.

An old man with white hair sighed, "That's right! Before Lord Song came, how could we in Pei County ever have a peaceful life!"

"In the past, there were groups of knights-errant on the streets who would draw their swords and fight at the slightest disagreement. Ordinary families had to hold their children tightly when they went out, for fear of getting into trouble for no reason."

The burly man next to him frowned and added, "It's not just wandering knights; all the impoverished nobles from the six kingdoms and the fugitives who have fled to our territory are hiding here. The officials can't do anything about it, and the powerful local magnates are taking advantage of the situation to seize fertile land, so we can't even collect taxes every year."

Another old man nodded repeatedly, his tone full of regret: "Back then, everyone thought this mess was impossible to clean up. It would have been a headache for any county magistrate. No one dared to expect to govern peacefully."

"Only Lord Song is truly capable; we, the people of Pei County, will remember this effort!"

"Absolutely! Lord Song is a benefactor to the people of Pei County! We'll never forget him!"

This episode's theme is to take our fans on a tour of Pei County's culture and customs, and to tell the stories of the various figures from Pei County who accompanied and strongly assisted the legendary female prime minister Song Ye.

How could a group of peasants gain Song Ye's favor and be cultivated into trusted confidants?

Why does such a small county like Peixian produce so many talented people?

Today, let's delve into the stories of the many remarkable figures who were among the first to follow Song Ye, settling down in Pei County and working together with him.

After saying that, the scene on the screen changed.

The leader, Song, was dressed in coarse cloth, with his sleeves rolled up high to his forearms, covered in mud, as he walked along the ridges of the field.

Xiao He, Zhang Liang, Cao Can, Fan Kuai and their entourage followed closely behind, all dressed in simple clothes, each carrying a hoe, a wooden plow, a rake and other farming tools. Their faces, hands and ankles were covered in mud, and they had no airs of officialdom whatsoever.

At this moment, all the future famous ministers and generals were of equal rank, regardless of age or seniority, and their faces, the backs of their hands, and their clothes were covered with mottled mud.

A group of top talents, who do not sit in high places or discuss national policies, are willing to follow Song Ye to settle down and farm.

The entire field was filled with people dressed in simple clothes.

The brilliant minds lined up, all bowing their heads in submission.

Who could have imagined that these people before us would one day become the powerful figures who would rule the world?

Before you now stands the most legendary entrepreneurial team in history, a unique and irreplaceable force—the old boys of Peixian, the dream team of every man.

Liu Ji: ...What do you mean by "old boy"? This is clearly called a true man who stands tall and upright!

Although, he is indeed a bit old...

Among them were butchers who killed dogs, coachmen who drove carriages, merchants who sang cloth from street to street, jailers, musicians who played funeral music, clerks in the county government, and a village head who neglected his duties, watching dogs fight and frequently harassing widows.

As soon as he finished speaking, the veins on Li Si's forehead throbbed violently.

"..."

While the aforementioned professions are somewhat understandable, those who make a living at the bottom of society and in the marketplace, though of humble origins, still have their own jobs.

After all, he himself came from a minor official background.

But when he saw the last sentence, Li Si couldn't hold back anymore.

A village head?! A ridiculous and irresponsible fellow?

Li Si's chest was filled with resentment, and he felt only absurdity and incomprehension.

What gives these people the right to do this?

What makes them able to unite as one? What makes them able to follow Song Ye and rise step by step?

How could they possibly outmaneuver these cunning and high-ranking officials in the future?

The leader who supported this legendary grassroots team and guided this group of rural talents was none other than Song Ye, the eighteen-year-old magistrate who had just arrived in Pei County.

[And it was this young female magistrate who, with her own charisma, won over and united the people of Pei County, gathering together the ordinary people who were regarded by the world as rough, vulgar, and mediocre, and carefully polishing them into gems.]

[An ordinary person? So what if they come from an ordinary background?]

It's okay—

[Throughout the world, those who have connections to the heavens.]

[The most legendary grassroots group in Chinese history, starting from the lowest point in history, has transformed in a way that is astonishing throughout the ages.]

A commoner from one county can bring peace to the entire country.

A group of ordinary people can achieve great things.
