Chapter 50 The goddess has a heart and the dragon is alive(1/2)

Chapter 50

Ying Ziyi's car was slowly driving on the streets. It is not an exaggeration to say that Xianyang City is the most prosperous city in the world.

The straight streets, square markets, wide corners, high eaves, everything is in order. Under the night, the entire Xianyang City dissipated the hustle and bustle of the day and became quiet and peaceful.

After the curfew, the only people who could walk on the street were beaten and patrol guards, officials who had the authority to carry out emergency tasks, special people who were ordered by the Emperor of Qin, and very special people themselves.

Ying Ziyi is barely the last two.

When walking at night, the prince's carriage should be simple. Anyway, no one can see the show off at this time, so why are you pretending?

The carriage drove from the Prince's Mansion to the Imperial City, but in just a short while, the guard who drove for Ying Ziyi took out his waist sign and handed it to the guard guard guarding the outer gate of the Imperial City.

After the guard confirmed, he bowed and let him go.

After entering the outer door, the carriage slowly drove forward for a while and parked in the square between the outer door and the inner door. There was a special parking area on it.

Ying Ziyi was holding a pitch-black box in his hand, and walked off the chariot, and the eunuch who was leading him was already waiting.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, His Majesty the First Emperor is waiting for You in the main palace."

The eunuch who led the way said this. Ying Ziyi nodded and signaled them to lead the way forward.

Walking into the inner door, the majestic Qin Emperor's Palace, where Qin Emperor handles government affairs and approaches all officials. The moonlight is high, and the Qin Emperor's Palace is brightly lit, illuminating the surroundings, and guards are standing nearby.

After walking through the ladders, Ying Ziyi climbed up to the high platform. At this moment, the door of the hall was open, and Ying Ziyi could see from outside that Qin Emperor was dealing with government affairs on the desk. Around him, there was an eunuch who specialized in measuring the weight of memorials. Every time Qin Emperor finished processing a memorial, the eunuch would place the heavy bamboo slips on the measuring instrument. Once one hundred and twenty kilograms were exceeded, he would remind Qin Emperor that it was time to rest.

If we say which of the most difficult task in the Qin Palace is? Ying Ziyi thought it was this one. Qin Emperor set this rule himself, but he didn't seem to follow it often. The eunuchs around Qin Emperor should be more careful. If he doesn't open his eyes to disturb Brother Zheng when Qin Emperor deals with Fanxin's government affairs, the outcome will naturally be miserable.

Ying Ziyi had just walked into the hall, and the eunuch reminded: "Your Majesty, the government affairs that Your Majesty has handled today have reached 120 kilograms, and it's time to rest."

Emperor Qin looked up and happened to see Ying Ziyi. He raised his hand and signaled the eunuch to move the memorial down.

"Sons meet with the father."

Ten steps to the Emperor of Qin, in front of a pool of clear water, Ying Ziyi worshiped.

"Yeah." Qin Huang nodded, "What are you holding in your hand?"

"Just about to present it to the father." Ying Ziyi handed the box in his hand to the eunuch, and presented it to the imperial case.

Brother Zheng opened the box and saw the three things inside, but frowned.

"Is this?" He took out an item from the box, thin, gentle, but a bit mottled and rough on the outside. "What is this?"

"I believe that this is paper. The other two are called brushes and ink, both of which are written."

Qin Huangduan looked at these items and thought about it carefully. After a long time, he spoke: "What a pity this piece of paper, is there any way to make its surface smoother?"

"The subordinates of related technical officers are improving."

"How long will it take?"

"The specific time cannot be determined, as short as several years, as long as dozens of years."

"Silver is too expensive, and bamboo slips are too bulky. These things of you may be able to change the world. Unfortunately, it's too long." Qin Emperor said thoughtfully.

"Okay, put it away! Remember, don't take it out easily before the paper is formed. This matter must be blocked, and the relevant personnel must be under strict supervision."

"My son understands.

"You did a good job in this conquest of Baiyue. Minyue, Ouyue, Xiou, and Nanyue have successively surrendered to our Qin Dynasty. The remaining Luo Yue, under the joint efforts of Song and Jiejun, doesn't think it takes much effort."

"Thank you, Father."

"After Baiyue surrendered, a series of projects could be started. Cultivated farming, immigration, business, and building cities are all kinds of things, and it is rare that you can handle them in an orderly manner."

"It depends entirely on the reputation of the father and the life of the soldiers."

After saying a few opening remarks in a bad manner, Brother Zheng finally got to the point.

"Where did you find that Han Xin?"

At this time, almost all the people in the hall had been exposed, and even the masters who had been guarding Qin Huang had evacuated one after another.

"When my son attacked Chu in the past, he passed by Huaiyin and met by chance, and took him as a guard." Ying Ziyi said.

"I have seen his battle report when he attacked Jie Jun's 60,000 troops at night. The Han Xin's army was so accurate and ruthless that it was no less than the veteran who had been leading the troops for a long time. But what's important is that he is very young. At this time, am I still a puppet in Zhongfu's hands?"

Ying Ziyi's heart was shaking. Zhongfu, only the Marquis of Wenxin, Lu Buwei, who could let Brother Zheng say this title.

The priest Zheng brother was Lu Buwei's illegitimate son, and he was rumored to the point that he ascended the throne when he was in Zhao State. Even the general Fan Yuqi fled from Qin State because of the internal struggle.

However, Ying Ziyi's opinion, this rumor was mostly spread by Emperor Qin's younger brother Cheng Jiao, who was circulating in order to compete for the throne. As for whether Brother Zheng was Lu Buwei's illegitimate son. Who knows what the truth is?

"Zhongfu." Gently savored this word that had not been spoken for a long time, and Brother Zheng seemed to have caused a long-lost wave in his heart.

Ying Ziyi knew that Lu Buwei was a very special existence to Brother Zheng. Without Lu Buwei, there would be no Zheng today, and there would not even be King Zhuangxiang of Qin. However, Brother Zheng was also the one who sent Lu Buwei to death with his own hands. What happened was that the situation was far away, and only a very large number of people could know. Ying Ziyi naturally had no intention of finding the roots. When he touched the topic of Mingyan, Ying Ziyi naturally pretended to be an ostrich and didn't hear it.

Fortunately, Brother Zheng quickly suppressed this emotion and looked at Ying Ziyi: "If such a sharp sword is not polished by a master, it would not be as good as it is. Do you know where Han Xin came from?"

At present, the monopoly of the entire education world are various schools of thought. If a person from a civilian background does not have more or less support from a certain school, it is absolutely impossible to reach such a level. However, in addition, the money spent on learning the scriptures of the various books is not something that an ordinary family can afford. Not to mention, Brother Zheng investigated that Han Xin was just an orphan.

It’s really impossible to hide anything from Brother Zheng, but Ying Ziyi didn’t plan to tell the truth. “Han Xin learned and embraced the strengths of a hundred schools of thought. In today’s world, there are only a few people who can reach this level. My son guessed that Han Xin’s master was already among these people.”

"Looking at his military use, I remembered a person, Wei Liaozi."

"Master Wei Liao?" Ying Ziyi pretended not to know and said in surprise.

Emperor Qin did not care about Ying Ziyi's attitude, but chuckled: "It's interesting, as today's battle has been extinguished. Wei Liaozi secretly polished such a sharp sword, which is really interesting."

Ying Ziyi continued to pretend to be an ostrich, ignoring Brother Zheng's words to himself.

"Do you know? What would you do if I got a talent like Han Xin?"

"Don't you know?"

"I will kill him!"

"!"

Brother Zheng’s answer was indeed a stuttering answer from Ying Ziyi, but he didn’t even ask Brother Zheng for the reason.

"So what does the father want to deal with Han Xin now?"

Brother Zheng has always been a person who can do something but doesn't speak. Now that he has already done something, he naturally has no intention of taking action. "I plan to keep it for you. As for whether to kill or use it later, I will deal with you."

"I thank my father." Ying Ziyi felt relieved.

"Remember, a sword that is too sharp will naturally be convenient when using it to fight the enemy, but be careful that one day this sword will hurt yourself."

"My son remembers the teachings of the father."

"Okay, let's put Han Xin's affairs aside. Let's talk about the serious matter now!"

There is actually something serious about it. Ying Ziyi thought that Han Xin could retreat after he finished speaking, but unexpectedly, Brother Zheng mentioned another thing.

"Your marriage."

Ying Ziyi suddenly remembered his marriage with Li Yu, the daughter of Prime Minister Li Si. After conquering Baiyue, a series of things were plagued by him, and he completely left it out of the sky.

"Father, this matter can be postponed."

"Why?" Qin Huang asked curiously.

Would my brother say that he will flash from Xianyang City soon?

"One, the son minister is still young, and the other is, the son minister once said that he would search for the elixir of immortality for his father. Now this matter is a little bit obvious." Ying Ziyi could not think of a good reason, so he could only use this as an excuse.

Who knew that when Brother Zheng heard about this, his face changed drastically and he asked, "What kind of news is it?"

"It is a ritual about Mirage visiting Xianshan. It is reported that it was collected in Hedong County. Erchen planned to go there in person after a while. The Mirage was about to be completed, and Erchen planned to go to Sanghai after going to Hedong. Therefore, the marriage would be postponed for a period of time."

"Okay!" Qin Huang nodded and said

"Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

In the dark quiet room, there was no trace of candlelight, only a crescent moon in the sky shone down, through the window, shining on the table in front of Ying Ziyi.

At this moment, Ying Ziyi was sitting on the desk of the book, and only a golden copper box was placed. A man in black knelt on one knee, just behind the desk.

"Have the news spread?"

"The news that Canglong appears has probably spread throughout the world."

"Very good." Ying Ziyi nodded and picked up the golden square box on the desk. "The Seven Constellations of the Canglong Dragon, this is a secret about the world. It has been circulated for thousands of years since the Zhou Dynasty, but no one knows the answer in this secret?"

Ying Ziyi smiled and threw the golden copper box in front of him to the man in black.

"I believe that if I send this thing to Wei, I will be interested in this thing, whether it is the various schools of thought or the rest of the six countries?"

"I understand." The man in black took the yellow copper box and jumped out of the room in two steps, and his figure merged into the dark night.

"Your Highness, this trick is good to throw stones and ask for directions!"

In the dark night, a figure with a misty curve walked into Ying Ziyi's quiet room and appeared in Ying Ziyi's sight.

"Are you back? Yan Fei!"

"Yes!"

In the quiet room, the two looked at each other and smiled, without saying much
