Chapter 45 When Did Your Majesty Change to Drinking Water?

The First Emperor ignored Meng Wu's words, but shook the reins and rushed forward.The team immediately opened up from left to right, with Shi Huangdi at the center, galloping forward in a fan shape.

Suddenly, all over the mountains and plains, there were figures roaring past.

Everyone wanted to show off in front of the first emperor.

From the corner of Zhao Ying's eyes, he glanced at the beautiful figure in a black dress in the distance, and found that Wang Nan's riding skills were very good. He rode on the bare horse's back like strong grass in the wind, following the horse's speed Gallop up and down.

The arrow in her hand was very steady, and almost every shot yielded a harvest. In a short time, a pheasant, two rabbits, and a fat-looking roe deer were already hanging on her horse's back.

At this time, Emperor Shihuang also shot a mountain deer, and the guards around him rushed up and snatched it back.

On the contrary, Meng Wu, who kept clamoring for Zhao Ying to follow him to suppress Wang Jian's limelight, only shot a few symbolic arrows, then stopped breathlessly, and glanced at Wang Jian, who was following behind his grandson, who hardly shot arrows. , secretly relieved.

"Forget that old thing is interesting, otherwise I have to let him know how powerful I am—"

"The old general is really powerful, he will grow stronger when he grows old, and he will defeat the enemy without fighting!"

Zhao Ying gave Meng Wu a thumbs up with admiration.

Looking at this serious and nonsense young man, Meng Wu couldn't help laughing, why didn't he realize that this young man is so interesting!
The first emperor shot the mountain deer himself. He was in a good mood. He reined in the reins, handed the bow and arrow to the guards at the side, and jumped off the horse slightly panting.

Nearly fifty years old, he worked day and night and was addicted to elixir, his body was already depleted.At this time, after riding a horse for a while and shooting a few arrows, I already felt a little powerless.

Zhao Ying jumped off the horse, took out a tightly wrapped water bottle from the rucksack behind him, and handed it over.

"Come on, father, drink some water—"

The First Emperor glanced at him in surprise, and reached out to take it.

Who is hot, even a little hot.

"You can imagine everything..."

"Father is not in good health and is not suitable for drinking cold water, so I asked my servants to prepare some..."

Zhao Ying smiled, and supported Shi Huangdi to sit down on a clean stone.

Now his wealth and life are all related to the first emperor. To him, the first emperor's body is more important than anything else, but he is very concerned about everything related to the first emperor's health.

The First Emperor didn't speak, but he took a sip from the kettle and waved at him.

"Go and play, it's useless to guard me - go and get Daddy the first prize!"

As he said that, he stretched out his hand and took the longbow he had just now from the hand of the guard next to him.

"This is the bow and arrow used by my father when he was young. Now it is useless to me. If you can really draw it, I will give it to you—"

Zhao Ying was overjoyed when he heard the words, and stretched out his hand to take it. With a struggle between his arms, he stretched a full moon.

For his current strength, this longbow is just right!
Let go of your hand, and caress the textured bow arm with some information. You can't tell what material it is made of, but it is heavy in your hand, which is obviously much heavier than ordinary bows and arrows.

Looking at Zhao Ying's relaxed appearance, the first emperor couldn't help showing a hint of surprise in the corner of his eyes.

"I didn't expect you to still have a lot of strength. That's enough, don't look at it. I want to see that there will be opportunities in the future. Now, take him and go get me the first one!"

"promise!"

Hearing this, Zhao Ying took the three-stone strong bow bestowed by Emperor Shihuang just now, jumped on his horse and galloped away.

On the contrary, Meng Wu, who had been by his side all the time, sat down beside Shi Huangdi, took off the wine bag from his waist and handed it over.

"Your Majesty, would you like to have a bite..."

The First Emperor looked at the kettle in his hand, then at the wine bag Meng Wu handed over, hesitated for a moment, shook his head, and raised the kettle in his hand.

"No, I'll just drink this..."

There was an imperceptible strangeness in Meng Wu's eyes.

Your Majesty, you actually listened to the young master's suggestion!
"In a few days, I plan to transfer General Meng Tian to Lingnan to guard for a period of time, and I want to hear the opinion of the old general..."

The First Emperor took a sip of the boiled water in the kettle, and asked a seemingly casual question.Meng Wu was startled, pondered for a while, then raised his cloudy old eyes to look at Shi Huangdi.

"That rebellious son made His Majesty unhappy? I will kill him later..."

Looking at Meng Wu, who was blowing his beard and staring in front of him, pretending to be, the Emperor Shi Huang did not expose him, he smiled, and looked at Zhao Ying galloping and roaring in the distance, bending his bow and shooting arrows, a trace of inexplicable emotion flashed in his eyes.

"No, I just think it might be good to take a rotation, and we can get familiar with each other and the situation..."

The First Emperor spoke calmly, but Meng Wu couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.

Is this because His Majesty's loyalty to the Meng family has been shaken?
The First Emperor didn't look back, he seemed to know what Meng Wu was thinking, and shook his head gently.

"You don't have to think too much, I have never doubted your loyalty, it's just..."

The First Emperor turned sideways and looked at his gray-bearded old companion beside him, his eyes were calm, without any expression of joy or anger.

"It's just that we're all old..."

Meng Wu looked at Shi Huangdi's grey-haired face who was less than fifty years old, and suddenly felt something inexplicable in his heart, and nodded heavily.

"The old minister obeys His Majesty's arrangement. The Meng family is willing to do everything for His Majesty and Da Qin..."

Shi Huang smiled, reached out and patted Meng Wu's shoulder.

"Don't be nervous, walk around the palace when you have time, and have a drink with me. I remember those boys in your family. After this year, they will be sixteen soon..."

……

While talking, Wang Jian also sent his grandson and granddaughter away, jumped off his horse, and walked towards the first emperor.

"His Majesty--"

Wang Jian saluted the first emperor, and then, as if he didn't see Meng Wu next to him, he supported his old waist and sat down on another bluestone beside the first emperor.

"Your Majesty's skills are still the same as before, which is really enviable. The old minister's body is not good, and he is getting worse every day. It is estimated that by this time next year, he will have to wait for the good news from His Majesty at home..."

While speaking, he took off the wine bag in his hand, preparing to take a sip to moisten his throat.

Emperor Shihuang smiled.

He handed over the kettle in his hand.

"As you get older and your health is not good, you should drink less alcohol and drink more plain water. I heard that drinking more plain water is good for your health..."

Even though Wang Jian was calm and wise, he was also confused.

When did the first emperor stop drinking and drink water?

After thanking him, he stretched out his hand to take the hot water bottle handed over by Emperor Shi Huang, brought it to his mouth and took a sip, and then heaved a long sigh of relief.

At this time, Wang Li in the distance had just shot a roe deer, he swooped down, picked it up and held it in his hand, sitting on the horseback, enjoying the applause of his subordinates.
