When they heard the words "food and clothing", the people in front of the tent were suddenly touched and couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Yeah! We just want to have enough food and clothes, why is it so difficult?"
"Droughts, floods, exorbitant taxes, years of heavy snow... God is leaving us no way out!"
"If only we could have sweet potatoes that yielded 10,000 kilograms per mu, and cotton that keeps us warm! Then our whole family wouldn't have to suffer from hunger or cold."
"The Fairy Queen must be a Bodhisattva in heaven who saves people from suffering! Otherwise, who would care about peasants like us?"
"Thank you, Fairy Goddess, for the kang method! We can finally get through the winter now."
The simple faces of the people were filled with emotion.
Some who were not good at expressing themselves kowtowed to the frame of the skylight, expressing their gratitude beyond words.
Now, almost all the poor people in all dynasties believe that the First Empress is a Bodhisattva who came to the world to save people from disasters.
After all, apart from the compassionate gods, who would care about the life and death of tiny ants?
Qin
Chunyu Yue: "This Queen truly cares about the world!"
Fusu: "Benevolence is selfless and love is boundless. Perhaps only a saint can do this."
Li Si: "If we find these two sacred objects, then our Great Qin will not have to worry about the people losing their support and the instability of our country. Nor will we fear rebellion and treason from the remnants of the six kingdoms."
Zhili Neishi sighed, "The Empress's two dowries are truly generous. No wonder His Majesty offered the kingdom as a betrothal gift."
"But why didn't the queen from our world come to see Your Majesty?"
Fusu said frankly: "The fairy is of noble character, I don't think she would share a husband with others."
Zhili Neishi whispered in agreement, "It's indeed possible. Judging from what was said before, fairies should like men who uphold virtuous men."
When Qin Shi Huang heard the chirping of crickets behind him, his face darkened.
Do you all think I'm deaf?
He was already annoyed, and now he was stabbed in the heart.

[As the saying goes, behind every successful woman there is a man who silently supports her.]
As a man who dotes on his wife, Zheng naturally supports her wholeheartedly, consulting with her, helping her deal with the aftermath, and protecting her from the worst. The two share a wonderful relationship, being open and honest with each other, often discussing national affairs and people's livelihoods together, working together to build a prosperous Qin Dynasty.
To help you better understand history, I will now detail how the empire rose to prominence, from various perspectives, including politics, economy, education, and technology.
At that time, the Qin Dynasty had just unified the country, the world was unstable, the people were uneasy, the Xiongnu in the north were harassing them, and the nobles of the six kingdoms were still waiting in the dark for an opportunity to act. The seemingly calm sea was surging with undercurrents.
In troubled times, harsh punishments were called for. The Qin Dynasty ruled the country by law, employing harsh laws and cruel punishments to maintain social stability. However, this also led to numerous drawbacks. Furthermore, the construction of large-scale fortifications such as the Great Wall, the Qin Straight Road, and the Lingqu Canal led to widespread resentment and demoralized the people.
After careful consideration, the Emperor and Empress, over the next ten years, reduced taxes, exempted people from corvée labor, abolished harsh punishments such as corporal punishment, strictly prohibited the practice of burying people alive with the dead, revised Qin laws, changed the military service system to a recruitment system, and replaced forced conscription with hiring...
In terms of the official system, the core was Confucianism and Legalism, with the three-province and six-department system and the imperial examination system as the political framework. The Jinyiwei was then established to punish corrupt officials...
A deep and powerful male voice was talking freely under the sky.
The language is easy to understand, and coupled with the perfectly reproduced real historical scenes, people from all dynasties seem to be immersed in that long period of history where everything was in ruins.
Western Han Dynasty
Prime Minister Xiao He stared at the "Nine Chapters of Qin Law" on the skylight and fell into deep thought.
Why are the criminal law propositions of this new Qin Code so similar to his ideas?
Even the names are pretty much the same...
Eastern Han Dynasty
Emperor Ming of Han, Liu Zhuang's eyes lit up. "This imperial examination system is excellent! It selects talented individuals from all over the world, fairly and impartially, and selects the best. It is truly the best system for selecting officials!"
"I wish to replace the system of recommendation and recruitment with the imperial examination. What do you think, my dear ministers?"
Although the ministers each had their own little thoughts, no one dared to disobey, and they all shouted in unison, "Your Majesty is wise."
You know, Your Majesty has always been strict with his subjects. If a minister makes a mistake...
He really would chase and beat people with a stick!
So much so that every time they went to court, all the ministers were trembling with fear and vying to do their work strictly in order to avoid punishment.
Emperor Ming of Han said with great interest: "This Jinyiwei sounds good..."
When the ministers heard this, they were horrified and said: We have been honest and beg for mercy.
【Eastern Jin Dynasty】
At that time, there was a saying among the people: "The king and the horse share the world."
After the Yongjia Southern Migration, the aristocratic Wang family of Langya supported Emperor Yuan of Jin, Sima Rui, to ascend the throne.
Shangshu Wang Dao held great power in the court, General Wang Dun was in charge of the military power, and most of the officials in the court were descendants of the Wang family. It can be seen that the power of the Wang family of Langya was great enough to rival the royal family.
However, as Emperor Yuan of Jin gradually came to power, coupled with Wang Dun's arrogance, Emperor Yuan of Jin became dissatisfied with the Wang family, and cracks began to appear in the relationship between the two sides.
Emperor Yuan of Jin looked at the sky with a flickering gaze.
"The imperial examination system selects the virtuous and capable, which is indeed a good idea. What do you think, my dear ministers?"
Shangshu Ling Diao Xie said: "This method is fair and just, it is worth a try."
Shangshu Wang Dao said: "Your Majesty, I think this is inappropriate. Our dynasty already has the Nine-Rank System, which allows us to select the virtuous and capable. Why waste national resources?"
Minister Liu Wei said: "Minister Wang is wrong. The imperial examination system can not only select noble men from humble backgrounds, but also select those with real talent and knowledge, so as to prevent the court from being filled with idlers who destroy the foundation of the country."
Hearing this sarcastic voice, Director Wang was immediately furious: "You!"
