my grandfather was qin shi huang

Chapter 317
However, fortunately, when they were in Hexi, they suffered from severe cold and were accustomed to the rough and persistent wind and sand in the Hexi Corridor. Therefore, although they took off their more practical sheepskin jackets, they did not feel that the weather in Guanzhong was too harsh.

At this time, when they heard that His Highness the Emperor's Grandson had come in person, everyone felt as if they had been given chicken blood.

"My subordinates pay homage to His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson..."

As he said that, each of them held their arms and bowed.

Zhao Ying couldn't help but praise him.

"Good! Reading can indeed clarify reason, enlighten wisdom, and cure stupidity. You have only been studying for half a year, but now you have the demeanor and manners of a gentleman..."

"This is all due to His Highness's teachings!"

Meng Yu hesitated for a moment, and before he could think of a reply, a Yuezhi man with a full face, a tall nose and deep eyes, a thickset face and a simple and honest face stood up and snatched the words away with a look of enthusiasm. .

Zhao Ying couldn't help but look at him one more time, his eyes full of approval.

"What's your name?"

"Back to Your Highness, I was born in the Yuchi family under the rule of Zhangye in Hexi Province. I have admired the culture of the Central Plains for a long time, but I just hate Lai Chi. Therefore, I took the Chi character in my original surname as my surname and named myself Lai Lai!"

Zhao Ying reached out and patted his shoulder gently with a look of approval.

"Good! From now on, you will be the deputy general of Junzi Camp, assisting General Mengyu..."

I was overjoyed when I heard the news later.

He bowed deeply to Zhao Ying.

"Thank you, Your Highness. I am willing to die for Your Highness!"

Zhao Ying nodded slightly.

"good!"

Unexpectedly, when he came around on a whim, there was such a surprise. Zhao Ying was in a good mood. With a wave of his hand, everyone was rewarded with some food and wine, and he gave these "gentlemen" a seven-day holiday.

It's the New Year, so naturally these gentlemen must see the flourishing and prosperous times of Great Qin.

Zhao Ying thought that during the Chinese New Year, students from various schools in Xianyang City might be able to gather together and organize a cultural gathering.

Just like grinding, you will see a gentleman.

It can also allow this group of people to feel Da Qin's Peiran writing style more intuitively.

After taking a look, E Guan Bo led Meng Yu as close as possible to the scholar's direction. Zhao Ying's heart moved and he turned around to give instructions.

"I want to organize a literary gathering at my general's house after the New Year, inviting scholars from all over Xianyang city to gather together to discuss knowledge, discuss articles, recite poems and compose poems. We can sit and discuss Taoism, discuss the general trend of the world, and cook Drinking tea, chatting about romance - you will be responsible for this matter, it is best to hand me a charter in the next two days..."

Meng Yu was overjoyed when he heard this.

"promise!"

……

Time, in the blink of an eye, has entered the last day of the 36th year of the First Emperor of Qin.

According to the original history, the First Emperor, who had just celebrated the New Year and worshiped his ancestor Sheji, hurriedly left Xianyang on the third day of the Lunar New Year and began his last tour.

Then, he became ill from overwork and fell ill in the sand dunes.

What happened to make the First Emperor go on tour in such a hurry?

Zhao Ying didn't know.

I don’t know if my time travel caused the butterfly effect. The incident that made the First Emperor eager to travel has not yet occurred.

But the more this happened, the less Zhao Ying dared to relax at all.

"Husband, I have a rest today. Do you still want to go to the palace..."

Seeing Zhao Ying getting up early in the morning to wash up and order people to prepare the horses, Wang Nan couldn't help but frown and added.

"Didn't Sister Yue Ji say that Marquis Guicheng is going to visit your residence today?"

Zhao Ying paused slightly, then smiled and waved his hand.

"Marquis Guicheng is not an outsider. If you come early, you can let Zhang Fucheng be responsible for the reception first. Today is New Year's Eve. I will go to the palace to invite my parents to come over to celebrate the New Year..."

"My parents are coming over today to celebrate the New Year?"

Wang Nan couldn't help but open his eyes in surprise.

Zhao Ying smiled and nodded.

"That's just my plan, but I haven't made an agreement with my eldest father yet - I'll go first..."

After that, he went straight out.

Outside the door, Zhui Gu had already pulled up the dark clouds and covered the snow, standing aside.What surprised Zhao Ying was that Xiaoyaosheng's fellow also followed behind the horse with frowning eyes.

"busy?"

Zhao Ying couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly and glanced at him sideways.

"No, it's okay - I'll just, I'll just walk around, walk around..."

Zhao Ying: ...

He withdrew his gaze, shook the reins, and jumped out.Zhui Gu behind him shook his reins and chased after him.

Xiaoyaosheng:......

No, does His Highness have no curiosity at all?
Why don't you stop and ask me why? I've already done it so obviously...

I am very wronged!

Although the distance from the eldest son's residence to the imperial palace is very short, today is New Year's Eve. Although it is still early, the streets have begun to become lively.Countless merchants have taken down their door panels and started to open for business, and people who came out and wanted to take advantage of the last day to buy some cheap New Year goods also arrived early.

Then, many people discovered——

The price of what I want to buy is not only not cheaper, but also a bit more expensive...

I could only scold my mother, grit my teeth, and buy a little less at the same time.

Although life is sad, the New Year must still be celebrated.

After the New Year, we still have to buy some New Year’s goods.

Zhao Ying was not in a hurry. He tightened the reins and looked at the flow of people coming and going. He felt quite emotional. In the blink of an eye, he was about to usher in his second Spring Festival in Daqin.

After this new year, it will be the 37th year of Qin Dynasty, and my body will also be 17 years old.

Despite this, it was not too late for Zhao Ying to arrive at the palace.

Compared with yesterday, today's palace lacks a group of courtiers who come to the palace every day to ask for instructions, and it also looks increasingly deserted and lonely. Apart from the palace guards standing solemnly, there are only a few palace maids walking quickly.

"See Your Highness—"

Ziying didn't expect that today, New Year's Eve, Zhao Ying would come so early.

Seeing Zhao Ying's figure from a distance, he quickly came up to meet him.These days, I have actively moved closer to His Highness the Emperor Changsun, and finally achieved results. Although I did not get the opportunity to go out of the town like General Lu did, nor did I get the opportunity to lead the army like Gongzi Gao, I successfully accepted it. After passing the errand of the palace guard in Hu Hai's hands.

Zhao Ying smiled and nodded.

"General Ziying, there is no need to be polite - Your Majesty, did you get up today..."

"Already went to the back garden..."

Ziying replied with a smile.

Zhao Ying thanked him and walked straight to the back garden.

With the special order of the First Emperor, he was now walking straight through the palace. The guards and maids on both sides had already become accustomed to the presence of His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson of the Emperor.

Wherever they passed, people stepped aside and bowed to salute. "It's rare for me to have some free time today. I just wanted to be alone for a day. Why do you come here to bother me again..."

The First Emperor was looking at his withered vegetable garden in a daze with his hands behind his back. When he suddenly saw Zhao Ying coming in, an unconcealable smile appeared on his lips, but his lips were full of disgust.

Zhao Ying laughed.

"I will come over to supervise and see if the eldest father and eldest mother are practicing boxing properly..."

The First Emperor kicked him angrily.

"You brat, you don't let anyone live in peace for a day..."

Zhao Ying had already escaped with a smile.

While they were chatting and joking, Concubine Zheng arrived.

Obviously, Concubine Zheng did not expect that her eldest grandson would come at this time, she said with a look of surprise.

"Ying'er, you're not at home with Nan'er and the others, why did you come to the palace so early in the morning..."

Zhao Ying smiled and stepped forward to greet him.

"Perhaps I'm used to it. If I don't see my eldest father and eldest mother for a day, I feel that I can't feel at ease in my heart. I might as well come over and have a meal with my eldest father and eldest mother..."

When Concubine Zheng heard this, she smiled so much that fish lines appeared at the corners of her eyes.

"How old are you kids? How can you stick to your parents all day long? It's rare for you to have free time, not to mention spending time with your wives and concubines at home - Nan'er and Yu Ji are already pregnant. You should always pay more attention..."

Zhao Ying smiled and said yes.

At Zhao Ying's insistence, the First Emperor and Concubine Zheng, who originally planned to relax for a day, did Tai Chi again.

Although I still couldn't develop the sense of Qi, my whole body felt much more relaxed due to the dredging of meridians and blood circulation.

The three of them had breakfast together in the back garden.

The First Emperor served wolfberry millet porridge with a plate of green pickled cucumbers and a plate of boiled broad beans. The opening of the Hexi Corridor and the Western Regions really enriched the Qin people's dining table.

There are many more choices.

Zhao Ying served the usual ginseng stewed venison, a large portion of boiled mutton, and a few crisp and delicious side dishes.As for Concubine Zheng, she was holding the plump and juicy Goubuli buns as usual and eating them in small bites.

It seems that the speed is neither urgent nor slow, and it is quite graceful, but the speed is not affected at all.

After breakfast, Zhao Ying handed the bowls and chopsticks to the maid aside, and then thought of formally extending an invitation to the First Emperor and Concubine Zheng.

"Father, eldest mother, I have specially prepared some good things for you this year that you have never seen before, waiting for the New Year - why don't you two go there together and join in the fun..."

The First Emperor did not expect that Zhao Ying came here specially today and wanted to invite him to spend the New Year. Hearing this, he couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.While he was hesitating, he heard Zhao Ying smiling.

"On the New Year's Day, it's natural for the whole family to get together to be lively and happy. What's the point of you and your old couple being deserted in this palace? You don't know that the New Year's gift I specially prepared for you is really... Only when you are in front of you can you see its beauty, go, go, go..."

First Emperor:……

The old couple was half pushed and half dragged onto the carriage by Zhao Ying.

Wang Nan didn't expect that her husband would actually invite the First Emperor and Concubine Zheng, and Mi Ji didn't expect that the First Emperor and Concubine Zheng would actually come to her home to celebrate the New Year.

It has never happened since I married my husband.

Therefore, he was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and hurried forward to greet the First Emperor and Concubine Zheng.

The First Emperor nodded slightly obligingly.

"I can't resist this brat's entanglement, so I came here to take a look - there is no distinction between monarch and minister today, only the courtesy of family members, you don't have to be restrained, and you don't have to stay with me specially, as long as Ying'er is here..."

Mi Ji and others:...

He wisely withdrew, while Zhao Ying enthusiastically pulled the First Emperor and Concubine Zheng to admire his masterpiece.

"As time goes by, people live longer, and spring fills the universe with blessings."

Horizontal batch: Vientiane update.

Seeing the First Emperor stop and admire the couplets, Zhao Ying smiled.

"These are Spring Festival couplets, a new thing I figured out from peach charms and other things. It can be used instead of peach charms, or both can be used together - in short, the red paper and black characters make it feel festive to look at it."

Zhao Ying casually introduced the Spring Festival couplets as he walked.

"Yes, it does look a bit festive..."

The First Emperor asked a few questions casually, and then he realized that most of these Spring Festival couplets were made by Zhao Qi, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

"I didn't expect Qi'er to be so talented..."

Zhao Ying said with a smile.

"The second brother is really good. He is very attentive in his homework and can bear his temper. I originally thought that after the Chinese New Year, I would simply find him a job in Shangjun - it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. Lu, whether a person has talent or not, we still have to give him an official position to try..."

When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help but frown slightly and couldn't stop.

"How old are you?"

"After the New Year, I will be 13 years old..."

When Zhao Ying said this, the First Emperor's brows couldn't help but frown more tightly.

"You want Qi'er to follow your Aweng..."

Knowing that it was impossible to hide this little thought from the First Emperor, he smiled and nodded very simply.

"It's windy in Shangjun, and Aweng is alone. Auntie and I are a little worried after all. With my second brother by our side, we can also have someone to take care of us."

Having said this, Zhao Ying paused and added.

"Besides, my second brother has now read through the new textbooks I compiled, and has some superficial understanding of the classics of Confucianism, Mohism, Taoism and Legalism. If we continue to study in depth, it will no longer make much sense. We, the royal children, are the ones who are trained to govern the country. A talented person, rather than an old scholar who knows nothing about the classics. In the final analysis, whether the knowledge in the book is correct and how to use it, you have to experience it yourself..."

The First Emperor turned his head and looked at him critically, and he looked back at the First Emperor calmly.

"It's just that simple?"

Zhao Ying nodded very firmly.

"It's that simple!"

Looking at Zhao Ying who looked calm, the First Emperor suddenly smiled with a playful expression on his face.

"I thought you wanted me to forgive the sins of that rebellious son - do you really not think about it? Maybe I will really agree or maybe..."

Zhao Ying: ...

"Okay then, please forgive Aweng for his sins..."

"I disagree!"

Zhao Ying: ...

It's fun to get skinned, right?

Seeing Zhao Ying's helpless expression, the First Emperor couldn't help but feel very good.

Zhao Ying was actually in a good mood.

To be fair, at this point in time, he really didn't want Fusu to come back.

Fusu is back, what should I do?
He was a father in name only, a real father in this body. If he had any sense, if he had any ideas, would he have to abdicate in favor of someone worthy of his throne and leave Da Qin to his torment?

But he couldn't leave himself alone in Shangjun.

Considering his stupid choices in history, he had to be on the safe side and send his second brother over to keep an eye on him. If something unexpected happened and there were unknown changes that he couldn't control, he could still save Fusu's life and give himself more time. A helping hand.
