Chapter 40 Ren Xiao must come back (for further reading)
Although this kid couldn't sit still, he had no choice but to hold back honestly, playing his own good baby there.At this moment, upon hearing Zhao Ying's voice, his eyes widened in surprise, and he stretched his neck to look out.

He didn't expect that there would be people who would dare to yell in Zhangtai Palace.

The old man who was talking to the first emperor couldn't help but stop talking, and subconsciously observed the first emperor's face. Seeing that the first emperor's face was not sullen and blamed, but a hint of doting flashed in his eyes, he was suddenly surprised and turned his head to the hall. Look at the door.

In all these years, it was the first time he had seen someone dare to yell in front of the First Emperor.

It's just that I don't know which grandson can have such a favor!

After entering the apse, Zhao Ying realized that there was a pair of grandparents and grandchildren sitting inside. He knew both of them.Below him, the idiot looking at him blankly is his grandson Wang Li, who is one of the two pillars of the late Qin Dynasty and Zhang Han.

However, now it seems that this big brother in the Great Qin Army is still just a boy of eighteen or nineteen years old.

To Zhao Ying's surprise, Hei didn't remind himself this time that his father was receiving ministers.

Seeing outsiders, Zhao Ying didn't feel embarrassed, instead he cheerfully stepped forward to salute.

"I've seen my father, I've seen Old General Wang, brother Wang Li—"

"Young master, you're welcome—"

The First Emperor nodded slightly, and Wang Jian stood up and bowed back.

Although he is the great general of Marquis Wu Cheng, with outstanding achievements, and a highly respected veteran of the Great Qin Dynasty, Zhao Ying is the grandson of the first emperor, and he will never neglect these superficial etiquettes.

Seeing his grandfather get up to return the salute, Wang Li hurriedly got up too.

"I've seen the little boy..."

Wang Li was not conspicuous when he was kneeling, but when he stood up, Zhao Ying realized that this guy was almost as tall as him now, and compared to him, this guy had broad shoulders and a thick back, so he looked very strong , I just don't know if he will cry if he punches himself.

Seeing the kid's dazed look, Zhao Ying couldn't help but be eager to try.

The arrival of Zhao Ying obviously interrupted General Wang Jian's conversation, and he took the opportunity to get up and leave.

"I remember that I haven't been able to see the old general for a long time, and I miss him very much. Why go back in a hurry, how about staying and having some lunch together..."

At the invitation of the First Emperor, Wang Jian could only bow to thank him, and sat back down again.

Naturally, a maid stepped forward to set the tableware for several people, and then bowed back. Without the emperor's greeting, Zhao Ying got up very consciously, opened the food box, first brought a large plate of dumplings to the emperor, and then set it up for the old general Wang Jian. a plate.

As for Wang Li, of course he ate from the crock pot with him.

There is nothing wrong with it, but the appearance is a bit ugly, and the utensils are not very high-grade.

This is thanks to his big appetite and he brought a lot of food. It is not a big problem to even provide meals for two people. At most, he can eat a few more catties of mutton when he goes back.

"This is……"

The First Emperor looked at the steaming dumplings in front of him in surprise, and his tone was uncertain.

"This is a new way of eating that I have come up with. The dumplings with mutton and leek taste good. If you think it is too greasy, you can also eat it with soy sauce or garlic..."

Acyl, that is, the vinegar of the Qin Dynasty, although the taste may not be as good as later generations, but they do not have the technology and hard work, at least they are safe to eat.

In fact, he doesn't need to introduce whether the taste is good or not, because the dumplings with mutton and leeks are delicious in themselves. Old General Wang and Emperor Shihuang are better, but Wang Li's worthless boy has already begun to swallow his saliva involuntarily.

"Go, get me some acrylic acid and garlic—"

The first emperor waved his hand, and soon a maid came over with acrylic acid and garlic.Zhao Ying used a small plate to prepare a portion of 醯, and divided a few cloves of garlic.

"Come on, old general, let's try this kid's handicraft..."

Seeing that Zhao Ying retreated to his seat, Emperor Shihuang made a gesture of invitation to Wang Jian, then picked up the chopsticks first, put one in his mouth, and took a light bite, his eyes lit up immediately.

"It's delicious! It's so delicious—come on, the old general has a taste if it suits your appetite..."

In fact, at Wang Jian's age and status, he seldom has the appetite for food. Besides, the world is so big, what kind of food has he not eaten?

But the first emperor's kindness, he still has the essentials.

After saying thank you, he picked up the chopsticks and put one in his mouth.

Ok?
Ah!
Wang Jian couldn't help but also his eyes lit up,
Although I don't know what the milky white shell of this dumpling is made of, but it is like an army, perfectly enveloping the aroma of lamb and the umami of leeks, without any leakage, but giving it a hint of The aroma of mutton and the umami of leeks.

"Sure enough, it's very delicious! Young master, you have a good method and a good thought!"

Wang Jian praised sincerely.

The First Emperor couldn't help laughing.

"The old general doesn't need to praise him, this stinky brat has nothing to offer, so he just wants to eat..."

As soon as Shi Huangdi and Wang Jian ate, the hall was immediately filled with the aroma of mutton and leek dumplings. Wang Li couldn't help it, and immediately picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Where has he been poisoned by this kind of food, he couldn't help it after just one bite.

Wind and clouds——

One couldn't hold back, Shi Huangdi and Wang Jian had just started, and he was liquidated...

Then, his eyes flicked to Zhao Ying's big crock.

Zhao Ying: ...

You are a starving ghost reincarnated, right?

Wang Li's way of eating made Wang Jian feel a little embarrassed, this child is too shameful, how can he eat like this in front of His Majesty!
On the other hand, Emperor Shi Huang smiled and didn't care, and nodded approvingly.

"Young people are full of vigor, so you should let go, otherwise they will be like us old men, lethargic, what's the point of looking forward and backward—"

Then he said to Wang Li.

"Little guy, don't be restrained. If you like to eat, eat more. I like young people like you who are full of vigor and carelessness..."

Hearing what the first emperor seemed to mean, Wang Jian lowered his eyes and concentrated on eating.

Well, this dumpling is really delicious!

Although Zhao Ying complained about Wang Li's eating speed and appetite, it was impossible for him not to give him food, but the problem was that he himself had a big appetite.

This product is tantamount to stealing your own food!
Well, let's go back and find time to play.

Although Wang Jian had no intention of speaking, Emperor Shi Huang seemed not prepared to let him go so easily.

Picking up a dumpling, dipped it skillfully in the small plate with the rice, and looked at Wang Jian who was concentrating on dealing with the dumpling.

"Old General Wang, what do you think of General Ren Xiao's memorial, how should I deal with it..."

Ren Xiao?

When Zhao Ying heard this, he immediately pricked up his ears.

He knew this person very well. After the commander Tu Sui who attacked Lingnan was killed, it was Ren Xiao who took over from Tu Sui.It was also under the leadership of Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo that Great Qin was able to unify Lingnan, and since then, this land has been completely included in the territory of China.

Over the years, he served as a captain of Nanhai County, controlled Lingnan Nanhai, Xiangjun, and Guilin counties, and built Panyu City near the current Cangbian Road. He made great contributions to the opening and stabilization of Lingnan, which can be described as outstanding achievements.

It's a pity that later, when the great Qin wars broke out and the world was in chaos, he led an army of 50, and together with Zhao Tuo chose to separatist Lingnan, waited and watched the changes, and became an accomplice in the demise of the Great Qin.

To make matters worse, after the demise of the Qin Dynasty, Ren Xiao died of illness, lost the deterrence of the Qin Dynasty, and lost the containment of Ren Xiao. Zhao Tuo finally revealed his wolfish ambitions, completely let himself go, and killed Qin Chao and placed him in the South China Sea. The county officials replaced their cronies, closed the door, and became their own emperors.

Therefore, when Ren Xiao was mentioned, he couldn't help paying attention.

It took me a long time to figure it out, but it turned out that it was Ren Xiao who sent the memorandum, claiming that he was sick, and wanted to be transferred back to Xianyang to recuperate, and asked the first emperor for permission. Cautious and thorough, knowledgeable about military affairs, and good at relations with various ethnic groups in South Vietnam, he may be a replacement candidate.

Anyway, want to go home.

Zhao Ying remembered that Ren Xiao had been seriously ill for a few years, so what he said this time should be true.If we can use this opportunity to transfer Ren Xiao and even Zhao Tuo back together, wouldn't everyone be happy?
It's a pity that Ren Xiao is probably really tired of staying in Lingnan. In the past few years, he has written letters asking to come back every now and then. The First Emperor is probably a little immune. For some reason, the First Emperor has never allowed it.

Hearing Shi Huangdi's question at this time, Wang Jian knew that he couldn't hide, so he could only sigh secretly, put down his chopsticks, and cupped his hands.

"The veteran doesn't know, but the situation in Lingnan is complicated. Looking at the court, it seems that there is no better candidate for the time being except General Ren Xiao. The veteran thinks that it is better to send a famous doctor with good medicine to Lingnan to treat General Ren Xiao. , may be able to relieve His Majesty's worries..."

When he didn't hear the answer he wanted, Shi Huang couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He intends to use Wang Ben, but this guy has the same temper as old general Wang Jian. Since he led the army to destroy Qi, he has been shrinking back.

I can tolerate this world, but can't we tolerate a mere royal family?
But the Wang family has made outstanding achievements, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the family of the number one hero in the Great Qin Dynasty.

Seeing that the First Emperor wanted to agree with Wang Jian's words, Zhao Ying felt anxious all of a sudden.

How can this work?

Ren Xiao must come back!
This is a matter of personal wealth and life!

"Father, I remember that General Ren and General Zhao have been in Lingnan for many years..."

The First Emperor didn't expect Zhao Ying to interrupt, and looked at Zhao Ying in surprise, but he didn't reprimand him, instead he nodded in his heart.

"That's right, it's been more than ten years since 25..."

Zhao Ying considered his tone and tried to persuade him.

"Lingnan is located in a remote place, hot and humid, and full of miasma. General Ren Xiao is approaching his sixtieth year and is in poor health. I don't think it is a long-term solution for him to guard Lingnan for a long time—"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying secretly observed Shi Huangdi's face, and saw that he had no bad reaction, so he said again.

"Besides, General Ren is getting old, looking forward to his homeland, caring for his wife and children, and wanting to enjoy the family happiness like General Wang, is considered human nature. Why doesn't the eldest father fulfill General Ren's little wish? ..."

Wang Jian: ...

He couldn't help but look up at Zhao Ying, always feeling that there was something in this little guy's words that meant him.Zhao Ying raised his head and gave him a sunny smile back.

"Old General Wang, do you think..."

Wang Jian:! ! ! ! ! !

Why didn't I find this dog so annoying before.

The First Emperor had always respected him, and he had never forced himself to do so. He had never used his words inside and out like this dog, so he almost didn't know what to say for a while.

I can only smile.

"Young master is kind..."

Give him a noncommittal.

Fortunately, Zhao Ying didn't ask any more questions, and Emperor Shihuang didn't mean to make things difficult, so he couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.At this moment, he felt a little regretful about coming here.

However, Emperor Shi Huang asked him to come to him, saying that he was going to discuss with him about the marriage between his grandson Wang Li and his son Jiang Lu's eldest daughter, and he had to come.

Ugh--

For a moment, he felt that even the mutton and leek dumplings in front of him were not so delicious.

Only Wang Li, a rascal, was so absorbed in cooking that he didn't notice the confrontation between his elder father and Zhao Ying at all.In fact, Zhao Ying didn't mean to confront him, but he was just annoyed that this old guy only cared about his own strength and bide his time, so he came up with a bad idea, suggesting that the first emperor should not transfer Ren Xiao back.

Let history repeat itself?
This is simply planting mines in the backyard of my own house, I can't bear it!
If Ren Xiao were to stick to Lingnan like in history, Daqin would almost cut off his own arm and lose the 50 main force.That is not an ordinary army of 50, but the real old Qin soldiers, the old Qin people with straight roots!
The real elite who participated in the unification of the world and the eradication of the Six Kingdoms campaign were the foundation of the Great Qin Kingdom, not the rabble that Zhang Han mobilized temporarily.

This is all his own family property, Zhao Ying really doesn't want to give up.

If it weren't for the fact that he traveled too late and his age was not suitable, he himself would have taken the initiative to invite Ying to go to Lingnan to develop and manage, among other things, with his status as the eldest grandson of the first emperor and the foresight of the time traveler, he would never let him go. This 50 army has become the private army of outsiders!

However, it was too late, Wang Jian didn't respond, Shi Huangdi just nodded slightly, and then changed the topic, talking about tomorrow's autumn hunting, he couldn't talk about it.

Because of this place, Wang Jian didn't have much intention to stay, and soon got up to leave.

The First Emperor took Zhao Ying to personally send him out of the main hall gate, and bid farewell to Wang Jian.

"I remember, it's been a long time since I went out to shoot with the old general, remember to bring this little guy over tomorrow, and let me see the kid's skills..."

"The old minister obeyed..."

Wang Jian led Wang Li away. The First Emperor stood on the steps and watched Wang Jian's ancestors and grandchildren disappear. Then he turned around with deep eyes and looked at Zhao Ying who was standing beside him.

Looking at it with his eyes, it was the same as meeting Zhao Ying for the first time, making Zhao Ying feel uneasy and even a little hairy.

"Tell me, why do you want Ren Xiao to come back? Don't talk to me about human nature, family happiness..."

Zhao Ying: ...

Ah, this-

Was I that obvious just now?
