Time moves forward steadily.
With the history books in hand, Qin Shi Huang could clearly determine which talented individuals could be given important positions and which good policies were suitable for the environment at the time.
As for those notorious villains in history, with his deterrent effect, they couldn't make a ripple.
If you behave yourself, you'll be fine; but if you make any moves, Ying Zheng will eliminate you.
At first, some of his subjects thought some of his policies were inexplicable, but in the end, the results proved him right.
In terms of judging people, he has never made a mistake.
People's lives are getting better and better, the country is becoming stronger and stronger, and prosperity is everywhere from top to bottom.
So afterwards, no one questioned any of his decisions anymore.
Centuries later, the Qin Dynasty had become an unshakeable behemoth.
Ying Zheng could no longer sit still and began leading his troops to conquer all directions.
In less than a century, they conquered all the surrounding countries that were within the reach of the Qin Dynasty and incorporated them into the Qin territory.
Once on the battlefield, the soldiers initially intended to protect him, only to discover that their emperor was actually a hidden master.
The kind that can take down a whole group with a single move.
The soldiers: "..." We've made a fool of ourselves.
Later, every few hundred years, Ying Zheng would lead a group on a journey, and every country that could be named would bow down to Qin and obediently pay tribute.
The territory of the Qin Empire expanded repeatedly.
During this period, Ying Zheng simply defeated other countries.
There was only one country that he wiped out completely, leaving not a single dog behind.
That country is called Japan.
Because its people are short in stature, Japan is also known as Wa (倭).
Historical records from a certain year state that an envoy from the overseas Japanese kingdom of Wa (倭国) bowed down to the First Emperor and presented him with treasures as a sign of sincerity.
However, the First Emperor was furious, claiming that the treasure was poisoned and that the Japanese pirates had ulterior motives, using the pretense of surrender to carry out assassination attempts, and thus he destroyed them.
Some soldiers were puzzled. This wasn't the first time their emperor had been assassinated. Why was the attack so ruthless this time?
In response, the First Emperor replied, "For no reason other than I despise those dwarfs."
He knew that no matter how compliant and harmless the Japanese might appear now, their inherently wicked nature would never change.
He had not forgotten how those Japanese devils would later slaughter his people.
Now that they've come to us, we should take advantage of their current weakness, pitifulness, and helplessness and clean them up as soon as possible.
That way he won't have to get it done again later.
Meanwhile, thanks to Ying Zheng's unwavering commitment over the centuries, women's consciousness gradually awakened.
They were no longer bound by the traditional three obediences and four virtues, but instead chose to leave their homes, walk the streets, enter schools, stand in the imperial court, and even fight on the battlefield.
Men have to admit, oh, what they can do, women can do too, and sometimes even better.
Women's status has been significantly improved, and the feudal ideology of male superiority and female inferiority has been gradually replaced by gender equality.
More than a thousand years later, a ridiculous figure named Zhu Xi appeared, who again tried to brainwash women by creating something called a chastity arch.
However, he did not realize that those seemingly weak women in history, after thousands of years of being influenced by the idea of equality, had long since transformed into female warriors, standing taller than anyone else.
This time, without Ying Zheng even lifting a finger, all the women in the land rose up against him, beating him so badly that even his own mother wouldn't recognize him, and later he simply disappeared without a trace.
From then on, no one dared to discriminate against women anymore.
For over a thousand years, with Qin Shi Huang in charge, the Qin Dynasty was so powerful that almost no one dared to provoke it.
It made a sudden movement, but before it could even struggle, it was forcefully pressed down.
Time flew by, and we arrived at the end of the Qing Dynasty, more than 1,700 years after the Qin Dynasty.
Learning from the lessons of later generations who closed their countries off from the world, Ying Zheng began to vigorously develop agriculture and technology early on, and many things came to fruition ahead of schedule.
It is no longer the weak, foolish, and arrogant era of the past.
In recent years, the people have lived in peace and prosperity, and with severe punishments as a deterrent, no one dares to commit crimes at will, so Ying Zheng rarely gets truly angry.
But he recently flew into a rage and ordered the execution of a group of people, including the extremely cruel punishment of being torn apart by chariots, and the extermination of their entire families.
Because these people crossed his bottom line.
They brought back a black, paste-like substance from somewhere, called it Hibiscus Paste, and profited from it.
When Ying Zheng was reading that book of five thousand years, there were two things that he hated the most.
One was the Japanese devils, and the other was opium.
Opium, in particular, such an inconspicuous thing, could silently destroy a powerful country.
It can turn perfectly good people into monsters and beasts devoid of dignity.
That was the culprit that led to the opening of the country's gates in later generations, and the people becoming cattle and sheep to be slaughtered.
Therefore, Ying Zheng has never let his guard down over the years.
The prohibition of drugs was the first law in the Qin Dynasty; anyone who used drugs would be executed, and their entire family would be exterminated.
Surprisingly, some people still took the risk and touched this thing.
After killing the people and destroying the hibiscus ointment, Ying Zheng began to ponder.
After resting for a long time, it's about time to go out for a stroll.
He ordered the armory to be opened, summoned the warriors, and resumed the war.
During the process, special attention was given to those foreign countries that had invaded his people in the past.
Years later, every country that could be found on a globe was flying the flag of the Great Qin.
Historical records refer to this battle as the "War to Unify the Earth".
It took Ying Zheng more than a hundred years to subdue these countries and make them submit to him, obediently paying tribute.
The last page of old history has been turned gently.
At this point, the book on five thousand years of Chinese history was completely changed, and even its name was changed at some point.
—The History of the Qin Empire.
Thinking that he would be able to see those little brats in a few decades, Ying Zheng became even more diligent in his duties, wanting to provide his children with the best environment.
The year finally arrived in the 1980s, and I looked at those dirty kids playing with urine and mud.
Ying Zheng: "..."
Hmm...actually, she's...quite cute.
A little cub rushed over and hung on his leg, and the others followed suit and gathered around.
Ying Zheng picked up a chubby little dirty paw and said fiercely, "Don't put your hands in your mouth. Go home and wash them clean. If you don't listen, you'll get a spanking."
The children: "...Wow..."
Ying Zheng: "..."
...
In the void, when Qi An returned, he saw Xu Xiaoxiao crying and laughing, her expression incoherent.
Before Qi An left, he projected a screen onto her screen, allowing her to see the current situation.
The butterfly effect has brought about a change in the world that Xu Xiaoxiao now sees as the modern world two thousand years in the future.
The difference is that Earth has become a village, and the village chief is her charming and handsome ancestor.
Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes were red from crying, and her voice was hoarse with emotion:
"I knew it, I knew our ancestors wouldn't let us down. In this day and age, in this environment... I wouldn't even dare to dream of such a thing..."
"If I had even one-tenth of that before, I would have been so happy."
"Brother Zheng is awesome! Brother Zheng is amazing..."
"I want to be reincarnated, I want to cling to Brother Zheng's thigh..."
Qi An's curiosity was piqued; what kind of world was it?
"Let's go take a look."
