Postscript 1
Spring indicates rebirth.
In the slightly chilly wind, the land of Guanzhong ushered in another spring.
And in this early spring season when everything is revived, this year will be destined to be different from previous years.
It is not just because of an unprecedented New Year celebration and a majestic military parade, but also because of endless excitement and joy.
The Hu Hai group's rebellion has been quickly faded and forgotten in the continuous excitement. For civilians, political topics are never as important as spring planting, autumn harvesting, and food and clothing.
But for the king, politics is of all significance. So after this hilarious New Year's Day, the First Emperor finally began to reward the meritorious officials who quelled Hu Hai's rebellion and usurpation of the throne.
The first contribution to quelling the rebellion was Chen Xu, so after the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the First Emperor was appointed as the Duke of Chen Xu, and was hereditary.
Chen Xu refused repeatedly but had to accept it in the end, but he refused repeatedly about the fief and fiefdom. The First Emperor insisted on adding all the titles. Chen Xu had to make adjustments to request the overseas Yizhou to himself. Seeing Chen Xu's refusal, the First Emperor had to agree in the end and actually granted the Yizhou Island to Chen Xu, and the Chen family would be permanently occupied by Yizhou. ::
Yizhou is like a legend to the Qin Dynasty. It has only been circulated among the people on the southeast coast. Therefore, no one objected to Chen Xu's request for Yizhou. On the contrary, the officials who were rescued by Chen Xu from the three provinces and six ministries reported that Yizhou was wilderness, and the court could recruit war criminals, slave prisoners and other immigrants to Yizhou for help in development, so the First Emperor naturally agreed to everything.
In addition to Chen Xu, many princes, princes, ministers and important officials with firm positions in the court were rewarded.
Meng Yi was granted the title of county marquis and increased his fief of thousands of households.
Feng Quji was granted the title of county marquis and increased his fief of thousands of households.
The Ministry of Works ordered Zai Hong to be granted the title of county magistrate and increase the fief of thousands of households
The Ministry of Personnel ordered Yang Zhu to be granted the title of county magistrate and increase the fief of thousands of households.
...
Xiang Yu also made great contributions to assisting in the training of troops to pacify Hu Hai's usurpation, and successively killed two bandit leaders, Ji Bu and Zhongli Mei. In addition, the military parade also greatly increased the confidence of the people and soldiers of the Qin Dynasty. Emperor Shihuang not only pardoned him and Xiang's crimes, but also awarded him the title of Major General and the Minister of War, and appointed him as the chief instructor of the Marine Corps of the Daqin Sea Division, responsible for training the new Marine Corps of the Qin Dynasty and planning the strength of the three divisions.
Xiang Yu was overjoyed at the rewards and orders of Emperor First Emperor and bowed down in the court to receive the order.
The soldiers of the Marine Brigade who participated in the quelling of the rebellion were also ordered by the First Emperor. All instructors led by Chen Xia were awarded real positions and military titles. The military title of Chen Xia was temporarily appointed as the brigade commander of the First Brigade of the Marine Brigade. All soldiers of the Marine Division Land brigade were awarded the title of third-level rank, with the lowest rank of sergeant. In the future, they will be assigned to the new Marine Corps as instructors.
At the end of January, the weather became warmer and warmer. The banks of the Wei River inside and outside Xianyang were already growing, with grass growing and birds of flowers blooming. Xiang Yu set off for Langya Maritime Academy and asked Chen Xu to marry Yu Ji before leaving.
Chen Xu was not surprised by Xiang Yu's proposal. After all, in history, the two were also a pair of lovers who remained unswervingly. Now, on this time and space line, Chen Xu was still very pleased to see lovers finally get married. At the same time, he also felt that he had finally found a good home for Yu Ji. Compared to Wuming Wubin, he would be more favored by himself and Shu Qingrou Yu Wuya. At the same time, he would avoid embarrassment.
In Chen Xu's opinion, he and Yu Ji were more of an intimate relationship between brother and sister. If it weren't for Yu Wuya's unintentional words, it would be impossible for the subsequent messy statements and things to appear.
Yu Ji did not refuse Xiang Yu's proposal, but made a request to Xiang Yu and Chen Xu.
"Brother Xiaoxu said that Dongsheng Shenzhou has high-yield grains such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, etc., and has always hoped that one day, these crops can be introduced to Daqin. Dad often dreams of delicious spicy crayfish. Yu Ji was an orphan. At the age of five, he was rescued from the snow and ice by Dad. Then he was raised by Brother Xiaoxu. This kind of kindness Yu Ji will never repay. Brother Xiang is a hero who stands tall and upright. If you are brave enough, go to Dongsheng Shenzhou to retrieve these things. Yu Ji will be willing to accompany you from now on, even if you wander around the world, even if you are in the sea of swords and fire, I will not regret it..."
Yu Ji's beautiful little face seemed calm, but her body trembled slightly when she said every word.
For the deeply rooted dreamlike love that she had formed in her heart since childhood, she knew that her hope could only be hope, and she could not force it, nor could she cry. At the age of fifteen, she already understood the dilemma of kindness. Only by accepting this arrangement can she be the greatest gratitude and reward to Brother Xiaoxu. For the family, it is also the best ending. Even if the world is accompanying Xiang Yu to wander around the world, she will have a brother Xiaoxu who spoils her in her heart, and then there will always be a harbor for her heart to stop.
Xiang Yu agreed to Yu Ji's request without any hesitation, with an excited and joyful expression. His eyes were gentle enough to melt the steel.
As for Yu Ji's request, Chen Xu was surprised and could roughly guess the little girl Yu Ji's idea, but since Xiang Yu had agreed, he had no need to refuse.
This matter has indeed reached the point where it can be implemented.
At present, Daqin's sea ships can cross the ocean.
It is indeed time to try to find and develop America.
America today is definitely still wilderness. As long as you can find it, it is not difficult to bring back crops such as corn, potato, sweet potato, tomato, pepper, pumpkin, sunflower. What is difficult is still the various bad weather encountered in navigation and uncertain unknown dangers. Mobile::
But I want to prepare well and organize a fleet to set off to minimize this danger.
When Xiang Yu returned from America, it was the beginning of another powerful era in the Qin Dynasty.
Yu Ji's request for Chen Xu was a bit incredible, that is, she married Xiang Yu, but Chen Xu also had to marry Xiang Jing.
If Chen Xu did not agree to this condition, Yu Ji planned to live alone with Xiang Jing and never marry for life.
Facing Yu Ji's stubborn and unwilling to compromise with her eyes, facing Xiang Jing's plan to kneel down and cry and ask to leave with her to guard her father's grave, Shui Qingrou and Meng Wanying Shiman couldn't bear it, and they persuaded Chen Xu to agree.
Xiang Jing is no longer young now. If she can give her a peaceful home, even if she is not so complete, it will be a good result and destination.
Just like when she married Fan Caiying, women of this era did not have many choices about marriage and freedom.
As for Xiang Jing, Chen Xu did not have any rejection in his heart. Instead, he felt guilt and pity that could not be relieved. This is a woman with clear grudges, flesh and blood, affection and righteousness, and should not have become what she is now.
Perhaps marrying her is the best thanks to her.
This is also Yu Ji's last help to this sister who had known each other in Yizhou for nearly a year.
A few days later, Dingguo Duke Chen Xu took a concubine and heard that he was the daughter of Xiang, who was twenty-three years old. This news puzzled everyone, but it did not prevent the people of the whole city from congratulating and giving gifts. Countless princes, princes, nobles and wealthy merchants came in groups, and big trucks of gifts filled all the warehouses of Chen Xu's family. Even the First Emperor sent people to send several trucks of gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin to express his congratulations.
Three days after the wedding, Xiang Yu expressed his intention to find the various high-yield crops recorded in the Book of Heaven to bring back the various high-yield crops recorded in the Heavenly Book of Heaven. The Emperor was overjoyed and appointed Xiang Yu as the commander of the Eastern Fleet in the hall, and ordered the three provinces and six ministries to step up the preparation of military supplies, sea and ships, etc., and Xiang Yu led the Eastern Fleet to set out as soon as possible to find the Eastern Fleet.
The First Emperor even promised that if Xiang Yu could bring back the various high-yield crops recorded in the Book of Heaven, he would be awarded the title of County Marquis.
The promise of the First Emperor was naturally to express the Nine Cauldrons. As long as Xiang Yu could come back alive, the Xiang family would inevitably restore their former glory and wealth in the future and even go further. The real title of the princes' country is far away, but this trip will definitely be difficult and requires a lifetime of death.
But Xiang Yu was in a tremendous battle, and now love was within reach, and his sister had the best destination. With a huge fleet, the little overlord believed that there was no difficulty in the world that could stop him.
After leaving Xianyang and going to Langya, Yu Ji sent her ten miles away, crying and telling Xiang Yu that he would live up to his life, and that he only hoped that Xiang Yu would come back soon to marry him.
This cry made the strong man as strong as an iron tower, and finally knelt down on one knee and begged Chen Xu to take good care of Yu Ji. Then he took Chen Xu and the trust of Emperor Shi, and embarked on a journey of searching for potatoes and sweet potatoes without hesitation.
When Xiang Yu left, Chen Xu's life returned to peace. In addition to the government affairs of the court, he devoted more energy to the supervision of various reforms and the reform of the Academy of Sciences.
In March, after Shangsi Festival, Langya sent back news that Xiang Yu led a fleet of eight warships to set off. The 500 Marines and 1,500 Marines and 1,500 Marines were traveling with him. He prepared a large number of bows, crossbows, guns, guns, ammunition, and clothing, food, medicines and other supplies that were enough for two years to eat. In addition, Cao Shen said in his letter that all ships were equipped with the best shipmen and crew, which was enough to ensure the fleet's navigation safety.
Although Chen Xu could only believe in Cao Shen’s guarantee, in front of him, there was no navigation, no satellites, no telephones and telegrams, and even the Americas could not imagine the times. He could only pray that Xiang Yu would be lucky enough and have a strong life, and he would be able to return with a full load.
Chen Xu felt that he had been looking forward to crayfish for a long time. Although this alien species is a disaster, Chen Xu believed that as long as he brought the spicy crayfish to the dining table in the future, the tragic ending of this species will be destined.
Under the guidance of his empire's food appearance, China has entered the food era thousands of years ahead of schedule. Now the reputation of Qingheyuan Food Street has become the most lively place in Xianyang with the continuous publicity of Daqin Metropolis Daily and the business travelers.
