In a private house deep in Lishan Mountain, Qin Luoheng was eating breakfast.
During these ten days, he followed the advice of Qin Changli and did not leave Lishan Mountain. He stayed in the mountain and read Taoism. He had no objection. He had been living like this for ten years.
There is no time in the mountains.
Over the years, he has been passing time by reading.
As for the 'examination' and 'biography' that Chief Qin said the government would send someone to send, he still hasn't waited for it, but Qin Luoheng is not in a hurry.
These things will eventually arrive.
Da Qin is a country that pays attention to practical results.
But we also attach great importance to research.
Before getting enough detailed information, the government will continue to investigate the authenticity of the information it provides. This cannot be found out in a short time.
Qin Luoheng also knew this, so he was not in a hurry.
After finishing his meal, he put away the dishes and returned to the study.
The study room is very large, and there are many bamboo slips in it. However, the information that can be recorded on one bamboo slip is very limited, only a few hundred words. Therefore, it seems that there are many bamboo slips in the study room, but in fact, his collection of books is not large in total.
Qin Luoheng took down a bamboo slip from the bookshelf, put it on the desk, lit the extinguished fire, and continued reading.
Half an hour passed.
Boom, boom, boom!
There was a knock on the door.
Qin Luoheng's eyes opened slightly, knowing that someone from the government was here, he quickly put down the bamboo slips in his hand, stood up and opened the door.
There was a clerk standing outside the door.
The person who came was about thirty years old, with dark hair and a sagittal beard on his lips. He was wearing a long-sleeved soap coat and was holding a pen and sharpening. His attire was the standard of a civil servant in the Qin Dynasty.
"I've seen the superior." Qin Luoheng saluted quickly.
The clerk said with a smile: "You don't have to be polite. I'm just a lowly clerk. I'm not an official, let alone a senior official. This time I'm here to give you a 'passport' on the order of Hu Cao."
"
"May I ask how the superior is called?"
"A single name is a solid one."
"Sir, it's cold. It's better to go into the house first." Qin Luoheng stepped aside and invited the clerk into the house. He took out a thatched mat from the side and placed it next to the case.
The two sat facing each other.
The clerk named "Gu" was sitting opposite him. He was not in a hurry to pass on Qin Luoheng's "examination" to him. Instead, he took out a few debate coupons first.
This is the entry and exit certificate for normal procedures to enter Lishan.
There are three coupons in total.
Each person who enters and exits from the garden, and the gatekeeper of the forbidden garden, holds a coupon.
Qin Luoheng knew this.
The Master once said, "It is stipulated in "The Book of Shang Jun: Dingfen": It is to give the official a contract to ask the official about the law."
That is to say, in the Qin Dynasty, in the Forbidden Garden, the officials and the debate coupons were used.
That is to say, you must show your ‘passport’.
In triplicate.
The law stipulates that those who enter and leave the Forbidden Garden must hold a medium ticket, the garden officials must hold a right ticket, and the gatekeepers must hold a contract. The purpose of this defense is to prevent people from sneaking in secretly, and to increase the difficulty for those entering and exiting to make fake tickets.
If the person's ticket is lost, there are two other parties as a reference.
This is also the origin of triplicate invoices and receipts in later generations.
certainly.
Qin Luoheng does not have these.
In ancient times, the scope of the forbidden gardens was very large. In the Zhou Dynasty, there was already a saying that "the emperor is a hundred miles away and the princes are forty miles away." By the Qin Dynasty, the scope of the emperor's forbidden gardens was even larger.
As a special forbidden garden, Lishan Forbidden Garden covers an area of more than 400 miles.
There are even walls built around it.
It's just that the area of the forbidden garden is too large. Even if there are walls, dead people will sneak into it from time to time and become bandits. This is why there are endless thieves in Yunmengze.
If the government discovers it, it will naturally be a dead end.
Gu looked at the three debate coupons, raised his eyebrows slightly, couldn't help but look up at Qin Luoheng, then took out the middle one and handed it over, saying: "Hold this debate coupon carefully, don't lose it easily, this is
This is your voucher for entering and exiting the Lishan Forbidden Garden in the future. I will give the remaining two to the Lishan Garden Order and the gatekeeper at the entrance and exit respectively for you."
Qin Luoheng naturally noticed Gu's strange look.
But he simply ignored it.
He had no intention of explaining.
It’s really hard to explain.
You can't say that you were a dead person before and you sneaked into the Lishan Forbidden Garden, right?
If Gu Gu heard his explanation, he would probably be heartbroken. After all, Qin Luoheng had been breaking the law, but not only was he not punished, but he was still as comfortable as a duck in water.
This was a huge blow to the Qin officials who were conscientious in their duties.
Qin Luoheng reached out and took the winning ticket, without taking a closer look, he just put it away.
Seeing Qin Luoheng's calm demeanor, Gu raised his eyebrows, but didn't say anything more. He just took out two more slips from his sleeves.
Immediately test and pass on.
He took the pass and compared it with Qin Luoheng's figure. Then he picked up the pass and wanted to make a routine inquiry. The things he wanted to ask were not complicated, just his identity and place of origin, that is, to verify whether he was the person he was.
.
But when I saw the last name above, I was stunned.
Qin?
National surname?
Or a ‘private slave’?
Gu opened his mouth, but no words came out.
He opened his eyes wide and took a closer look at Qin Luoheng's 'examination'. The surname was indeed Qin, and the household registration was indeed a private slave. Moreover, the information on it was extremely missing, and the past was completely blank. According to the law, these information were simply
Their identity cannot be determined, and they cannot be directly included in their household registration.
But this verification is true.
The slips were given to him personally by Hu Cao.
There's no way it can go wrong.
But what is the situation before us?
Gu Zhen was a little confused. He had never seen this kind of situation before.
According to the law, such unidentified people are indeed classified as private slaves, but Qin Luoheng's slips do not have any military service experience, nor any experience of being exempted from prison for meritorious service, or even any past experience.
.
The lack of information is outrageous!
And his surname is Qin!
After the Qin Dynasty unified the world, the first emperor personally issued an edict.
'The order says: The first disciple of Guizhou who is named Qin has to change his name. If anyone dares to change it, I will give Erjia.'
Although nominally the scope of the name change is only Guizhou Tuili, when it is actually implemented, it is aimed at all the people of the Qin Dynasty, and the punishment is still severe. Unless the Qin royal family or the First Emperor gave the surname Qin in the past, all names must be changed.
He didn't believe that the Hu Cao in charge of household registration didn't know about this, but what happened to Qin Luoheng's surname "Qin"? This slip was personally verified and issued by the Hu Cao.
Could it be that Hu Cao dared to take bribes and pervert the law?
Thinking of this, a flash of fierceness flashed in Gu's eyes. If Hu Cao really dared to be "disobedient", he would definitely impeach the censor.
Look back.
Gu's face has turned cold.
He glanced at Qin Luoheng coldly, and did not ask as usual, but directly passed the test in his hand over, and said at the same time: "This is your test, and your file information has been assigned to Xianyang.
"
"I would also like to ask here, is there any secret way to handle your household registration?"
"If you dare to secretly communicate with Xianyang officials and deliberately conceal the true situation, once it is verified, it will be an additional crime. By then, the household registration you have finally obtained will be canceled directly."
"And you..."
"You will also be abandoned by the owl!"
Hearing Gu's angry words, Qin Luoheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Don't worry, sir, my household registration is completely handled impartially, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it."
