"In the Spirit of Heaven, please allow His Majesty the Second Emperor to entrust this message to your servant - the Qin State came from the east and unified the Chinese civilization. In the process of establishing and implementing its policies, it encountered invasions by the northern nations for more than a hundred years.

In the face of people's livelihood difficulties, we built the Great Wall - starting from Lintao in the west and ending in Liaodong in the east, stretching endlessly and becoming the boundary of our country.

God bless us, the Great Wall will last forever, protecting our people and bringing long-term peace to our country. "!

During the same time period, county governors and officials from across the country went to their respective construction sites to announce:

"Since the loss of the First Emperor, the people have been confused and weeping. Now, I am fulfilling my duties according to the will. All the sacrifices to the temples and the historical records have been confirmed, the most noble merits have been clearly recorded, and the relevant laws have been updated and established. In order to free the people from the shackles and felonies of the past, I have ordered that the people be forgiven and live a new life. Please remember this decision, and do not disturb the lives of the people with cumbersome conscriptions and corvée, and do not be too strict with the details of the administrative affairs of your subordinates. Communicate it immediately."

After the county magistrate said this loudly, several local officials stepped forward to give a more in-depth explanation to the prisoners.

The key point is whose crimes will be pardoned and whose will not.

The situations that can be forgiven are often not criminal cases, but things like littering, spitting, making your own wine, having parties at home that disturb neighbors and get complaints, beating your wife or partner, and choosing to do labor to pay off debts to the government.

Self-redemption is permitted because of the laws of collective responsibility that involve related families and neighbors.

As for the principal offenders and accomplices involved in serious crimes such as robbery, they will continue on the path of criminal slavery.

Under Fusu's arrangement, the imperial edict was sent to all places early, following the lucky moment in the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine to announce the implementation time of the amnesty. Most places were able to maintain a consistent schedule with the Zhangtai Palace when announcing the edict. This could be said to be a real-time broadcast.

Lu Zhi, who was working on a loom in the Xianyang Palace, heard the concubines whispering and felt agitated.

Putting down the small needle in her hand, she moved closer to the woman who was speaking, "Sister Xiaolan, is this true? Did the emperor really grant amnesty to all the people?"

The woman called Sister Xiaolan was from the State of Wei. She was a prisoner brought into the palace when Wang Ben conquered Daliang. Since then, she has been staying in the Xianyang Palace as a maid.

Staying in this palace for a long time gave her many advantages in intelligence information. According to her, she even knew the details of Fusu's special behavior in the harem before.

Xiaolan smiled confidently and replied in a gentle voice: "How could it be false? That is the fact I have seen! When I was illuminating the Lord, he personally issued the imperial decree to pardon the entire army!"

When mentioning this, Xiaolan forgot that she couldn't read the Qin seal characters and had never been to Tangchi Palace with Zhao Ji. However, Lu Zhi, who was full of curiosity about this information, didn't notice that the concubines in the palace were secretly laughing with their hands covering their mouths. Instead, she quickly ran towards Lu Hong and Liu Le, the only girl in Lu Zhi's group of concubines who wore thick linen dresses and was the only one who was not pregnant.

Because only female employees were active in the weaving room and the only male in the Tangchi Palace had moved away temporarily, Lu Zhi and the other sisters wore ordinary thick linen gowns, and there was no need to wear a special smock over this palace dress that did not look bloated.

When she ran, the clothes on her chest swayed, and the exposed lines were extremely eye-catching.

"Lu Yan, we are all pardoned!"

When she ran to Lu'an, she danced with joy, but seemed to have forgotten her identity as a mother of two children.

As a young girl who has not officially become a bride, her skin is smooth as fat, her face is round and slightly fleshy like a baby, and she is as gentle and lovely as a girl next door.

Lu Yan put the spinning spindle back on the machine, raised his clear eyes and replied, "Sister, you are so happy."

"I have already asked the emperor to grant amnesty only to prisoners, and a minister like me who is proficient in skills cannot redeem myself..."

As he spoke, he reconnected another thread to the needle of the spinning wheel.

When Lü Zhi heard this, her face was filled with worry, and she murmured, "What should I do... Ying'er is still so young, he can't be without his mother!"

Lu Xu sighed softly, stood up, supported the flustered Lu Zhi, and comforted her: "Although I cannot be liberated and become a free man, Ying'er, as a little child, deserves to be pardoned and taken care of. I will send a letter to my father later, asking him to take Ying'er back to take care of her."

Then he continued: "Besides, don't you feel that life is much better now than before?"

When Lu Xu finished speaking, Lu Zhi opened her mouth slightly, but in the end she still nodded.

When they were in Pei County, their houses were ventilated at all four corners; if a big storm happened, their fear of the thatch being carried away by the storm would be even greater.

Their daily lives not only require calculating how long each liter of food can last, but also requiring them to work like farmers in the fields. What's more, they also need to use part of their dowry to pay off the debts of those restless men.

Today, although they are still slaves and concubines, the weaving room in front of them where they do all kinds of chores has become a majestic palace with exquisite artistic carvings.

At night, they no longer sleep on hay, but on cotton mats wrapped in cotton.

Even their six-year-old girl gets a small bag of food every month.

The sharp chin that was originally a characteristic of Liu Le gradually became fuller due to the rich food supply.

Therefore, after hearing this, Lü Zhi agreed to Lü Xu again, thinking that being a slave in Xianyang was much better than being the wife of a village head in Pei County.

At this time, a group of palace maids dressed in gorgeous costumes came from the weaving workshop outside.

The backgrounds of these people were that they were favored by the previous king but failed to give birth to children for him, and then were spared from being buried alive because of the kindness of the second generation emperor.

Seeing the gorgeous silk clothes on these women made Lu Zhi yearn for it. She reached out and gently touched her linen palace skirt, revealing a feeling of envy.

Suddenly, Lü Zhi once again remembered the words of the old man weeding in the farmland, who once called her "Lady". This made her have a bold guess in her heart, her breathing became unnaturally heavier, and her body trembled involuntarily.

………….

Nanhai Prefecture.

Ziying, who was sitting in the chariot and thinking as it was shaking up and down, suddenly had a bold idea.

This is a great deal! With just a bag of salt and a piece of cloth, you can buy a Vietnamese woman as a partner. Maybe this is the secret to ruling the South China Sea? So he gently stroked the short beard on both sides of his mouth and observed that many Vietnamese beauties had joined the queue.

A bold idea unconsciously emerged in Lu Zhi's heart, and her rapid breathing gradually became clearer, and her body trembled involuntarily.

…Lingnan region.

While riding in the bumpy chariot, a bold guess was quietly growing in Ziying's mind.

Such a good exchange, a bag of salt plus a piece of cloth, can get Yuezi? Could this be the secret method to govern this sea area? Yu gently stroked his chin and looked around at the newly added groups of beautiful Vietnamese women.

Different from the Baiyue people who practiced walking marriage, the men in Qin had a strong sense of ownership over the women they had been intimate with. They would not allow their spouses to get close to other men, and would not allow this to happen when they were pregnant with their offspring.

Therefore, when they set out the next day, several carts of important supplies stopped at the Yue tribe, and the women were given the responsibility of guarding the captured Yue people.

Li Shangce immediately stepped forward to Ziying and suggested, "It will be a long night, why don't you find some Yue girls to accompany you?"

Long night, um... It sounds like the words came from your Majesty's mouth. Ziying shaved his beard playfully, as if unconsciously reminding himself that this memory was caused by Fusu's influence.

He smiled but said nothing, and responded to Li Shang: "Shang, have you never found a Vietnamese girl companion?"

Li Shang was stunned for a moment, then he answered with a hearty smile: "How can I say no!"

Then he pointed his chin to the back of the team, where two Yue women who looked very similar were standing side by side.

Such beastly behavior... To Yu Ziying, it was just a joke: "You got married without telling me? When we get back to Xianyang, I'll let my doctor in charge of punishment teach you a lesson. Don't forget to reserve a seat for me!"

On October 10, two years after the reign of the Qin emperor, a small incident occurred in the suburbs of Xianyang. Calorie, the name of a place in Xingping County, sounds extraordinary.

Fusu, who was wearing a dark narrow-waisted coat, was slightly stunned when he heard the name - if he was not accompanied by Li Cheng and a dozen or so soldiers who were dressed in civilian clothes but were actually Iron Eagle Warriors, perhaps Fusu would have just wanted to say at this moment: Light up my calories!

"This place is called 'Caoli' and is located beside the main road on the west side of Xianyi, hence the name Calories. It is managed by Du Youting," Li Cheng explained, and then he remained vigilant and patrolled around.

Half an hour ago, Fusu proposed to travel incognito and take a tour of the nearby area. Li Cheng firmly disagreed, but Fusu insisted on carrying out the plan. In the end, both sides compromised and reached the current result.

But soon, more than a dozen sentry soldiers armed with shields, arrows, short guns and other weapons blocked their way. Their crimson clothes, leggings, and red hats all marked them as police officers or guards. Looking at the "police officers" in front of him with an expression as if they were facing a great enemy, Fusu curled his lips slightly.
