my grandfather was qin shi huang

There is a new member in the Emperor's Grandson's Mansion!

This good news spread quickly throughout Xianyang City, as if it had wings. The servants who announced the good news hadn't arrived at the Yu family's residence yet. Yu Tian, ​​who was leisurely twirling his beard and reading a book, had already received the news in advance.

His hands trembled in excitement, almost pulling off his beard.

"Quick, go and inform the madam, go and inform the madam!"

Yu Tian was delighted with his appearance.

Although he had already expected his daughter to give birth to a child, having expectations and seeing the results are still two different things. Although his first child was a daughter, which made him feel a little disappointed, she was also the eldest daughter of the emperor's grandson!
Moreover, if there is one, there will be two, and one day a son will be born.

"With the blessing of our ancestors, our Yu family should be prosperous——"

Yu Tian was so excited that he ran to his ancestor's memorial tablet and offered a stick of incense.

In just such a delay, the servants from the emperor's grandson's house arrived to announce the good news.

"There's work, there's work--"

Yu Tian stepped forward with a smile and looked at the steward of the emperor's grandson's house. He did not dare to neglect and receive him personally. The steward also did not dare to take advantage of it. His attitude was very humble and he politely declined Yu Tian's kindness to serve tea. He said goodbye politely and left.

As soon as the steward of Zhao Ying's house left, the Yu family took action.

The old couple couldn't wait to get on the carriage, and headed straight to the Emperor's Grandson's Mansion with a cart full of supplies for postpartum warming and recuperation. When they arrived at the Emperor Taisun's Mansion, the First Emperor reluctantly handed over the baby in his hands to the female official who had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Be sure to take good care of yourself..."

After saying that, I didn’t forget to give one more warning.

The female officer carefully held the child in her hands and bowed to receive the order.

"promise--"

Seeing the female official carrying the child to the back room and handing it to Yu Ji for breastfeeding, the First Emperor withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Zhao Ying.

"The in-laws are coming to visit, so go and greet them..."

Zhao Ying smiled and nodded.

"That's how it should be!"

Zhao Ying is now the grandson of the emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty, and his status is unusual. According to the past, with Yu Tian's status, he was not qualified for Zhao Ying to welcome him in person. But it is different today. Today there are no emperors and ministers, only the son-in-law.

Mr. and Mrs. Yutian are here to see their grandson!

This gift is a must.

When Yu Tian and his wife Jin came in, they realized that His Majesty the First Emperor and the Queen were also there. They were immediately surprised and happy, and hurriedly rushed forward to pay tribute to the First Emperor.

"Young man Yu Tian, ​​I would like to pay my respects to Your Majesty——"

Looking at Yu Tian and Jin who were frightened, the First Emperor smiled and nodded, stretching out his hand to support them.

"We are all one family, no need to be polite..."

Although the First Emperor said this, Yu Tian and Jin didn't dare to say that "no more courtesy" was needed. They still bowed respectfully twice, then stood up and stepped aside.

However, the old couple's thoughts were no longer with the First Emperor. Although they stood aside, their eyes seemed to be caught by something, and they kept looking into the inner room.

The First Emperor waved his hands to Yu Tian and his wife very understandingly.

"You don't need to stay with me here, go in and take a look..."

Yu Tian and Jin quickly thanked them and ran in happily.

Looking at the anxious backs of Yu Tian and his wife, the First Emperor suddenly thought of something and asked casually.

"I heard that this Yu Tian is quite capable..."

Zhao Ying smiled and nodded.

"Fortunately, I know how to advance and retreat, understand the general situation, can assess the situation, and also understand some principles of running an industry..."

The First Emperor nodded slightly.

"After all, he is the father-in-law of Yu Ji and Pan'er's grandfather. There is something wrong with him dealing with merchants all day long. Well, let's go back and arrange for him to do something with the young master..."

Zhao Ying smiled and nodded.

"Okay, listen to the big father -"

With Yu Tian's ability, it is not a problem to be an assistant official in the Shaofu.

But before, he had always been concerned about the First Emperor's attitude towards his relatives, and did not dare to make arbitrary arrangements for fear of causing unnecessary changes. Now that the First Emperor had spoken personally, he was naturally happy to go along with the situation and arrange a more or less relaxed position for his father-in-law.

Having said this, he pondered for a moment and asked tentatively.

"Then let's go to Yuefu Lingcheng. I'll have more time..."

Hearing this, the First Emperor smiled and nodded noncommittally.

"Just look at the arrangements yourself..."

Although Yuefu Lingcheng is also an assistant official in the Shaofu, he belongs to a relatively noble yamen. He is usually only responsible for the music of the palace, patrols, and sacrifices, and has almost no influence on the court.

In fact, Zhao Ying's arrangement was not only to take care of the feelings of the First Emperor, but mainly because the members of the Yu family were really useless.

After Yu Tian, ​​the new head of the family, Yu Rang, could not suppress the elders in the clan at all. The conflict between Yu's third wife, Yu Song, had almost been brought to the surface. One of them was building canals and reclaiming wasteland, all of which made chicken feathers all over the ground. In the end, he almost failed to complete the task. .

It is estimated that if it were not for his own face, the memorial filed by the young master Jiang Lu and Li You would have been brought against him.

With such a family burden, Zhao Ying felt that if he really arranged Yu Tian in a particularly important yamen, the losers in his family would not know what trouble they would cause.

……

The First Emperor and Yutian couple arrived quickly.

I rushed over almost as soon as I received the news, but as the news spread, soon, a long queue of horses and carriages arrived outside the gate of the Emperor Taisun's Mansion to express their congratulations.

Officials in the court, regardless of their title or official position, all sent people to express their congratulations. As a result, the queue outside the mansion grew larger and larger, and in the end, it blocked traffic.

Outside the mansion gate, Manager Zeng, who had originally had a happy look on his face, couldn't help but sweat on his forehead as he looked at the increasingly long line.

He thought for a moment, turned around and walked inside.

Walking to the door of the backyard, he grabbed an old woman who had just come out, lowered his voice and asked cautiously.

"Where is Your Highness now——"

After saying that, he added a little guiltily.

"Are your Majesty and His Highness together?"

As he asked, he poked his head inside.

Ever since he scolded the First Emperor in person last time, he had become frightened. Whenever the First Emperor came to his house, he would hide as far away as possible, lest the First Emperor suddenly think of him one day.

However, before he finished speaking, he heard a sound from inside that almost made his calves tremble.

"Father, do you still remember the steward who poked his head outside..."

Then, I heard the voice of the First Emperor with a somewhat uncertain tone.

"I think he's the manager of your kitchen - I remember his name is Zeng?"

caldron:……

Your Majesty indeed remembered me! Just when he was panicking and wondering whether he should go in and report, he heard the gentle and somewhat joking voice of his grandson again.

"My eldest father has a really good memory. Yes, he is really a retort. Do you still remember that he scolded you back then..."

Zeng Guanshi:......

His legs went weak and he almost collapsed to the ground.

What kind of eyesight does Zhao Ying have?

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as he wants to see, even if a mosquito flies in front of him, he can distinguish the male from the female. Naturally, he has already seen the ridiculous little moves of Zeng Guanshi.

In a good mood, he deliberately teased.

When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help but think of the funny scene, and couldn't help stroking his beard and laughing.

"I remember..."

Zeng Guanshi’s calves were all cramped.

I wish I could slap myself in the face right then and there, and why don't I ask others to come over and ask for instructions? Even though I knew His Majesty was inside, I still wanted to come over and ask for acquaintance. This was a good thing. If I didn’t make it, I would become familiar with him...

"Okay, come in quickly-"

Seeing this guy, his face turned pale with fright, and his usual cleverness was completely gone. Zhao Ying couldn't help but feel amused, and waved to him interestingly.

It has fallen into the eyes of His Majesty and His Highness...

There is no way to avoid disaster.

I hope that your majesty can see that there is happiness in the family today and will not care about a villain like me.

When Zeng Guanshi thought of this, he was heartbroken and then bravely walked in.

"Little man Zeng, I want to pay my respects to His Majesty. I have met the young master..."

In fact, since he was canonized as the emperor's grandson, even in his own house, except for Sao and Mo, two long-term followers who have been with him since childhood, including Zeng Guanshi, there are very few people calling him anymore. Young Master.

This guy is obviously playing the emotional card here.

Zhao Ying didn't expose his little trick and nodded with a smile.

"What's the matter..."

Seeing that the First Emperor was also looking at him with interest, his eyes were obviously full of teasing. His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun didn't seem to have any intention of pursuing him, so he suddenly felt relieved.

"My young master, there are many noble people coming to congratulate you. They are driving cars with crowns and coverings. They stretch for miles, and you can't see the end at a glance. I don't dare to be good at it, so I came here to ask for instructions. How should I deal with it... …”

So even if the nobles who come to congratulate are received in batches, they probably don't know how long they will be waiting in line.

When Zhao Ying heard this, he couldn't help but frown slightly, and subconsciously looked at each other with the First Emperor. He felt it was a bit tricky, and wanted to ask his eldest father how to deal with this situation.

Who knew, before he could speak, the First Emperor had already turned away as if nothing had happened.

"You go and do your business, don't worry about me, I'm going to see my little great-grandson..."

After saying that, before Zhao Ying could react, he put his hands behind his back and walked away.

Zhao Ying:......

It was obvious that this old man was addicted to testing his grandson, and wanted to take this opportunity to see his grandson's reaction ability in this situation.

Zhao Ying couldn't help but scratch his head.

If so, he was just an official from the DPRK and China, so this situation would be easy to handle. He could just come in person to receive him. All you need to do is ask the servants in the mansion to remember the identities of all the guests, and then thank them one by one if there is a chance in the future.

Or maybe it would be okay to decline all the guests and act like a solitary minister.

But now he is the grandson of the emperor who oversees the country.

This kind of large-scale gift-giving in the name of congratulations must not last forever. However, these people came here today, and they may not have the intention to show their loyalty. It is also quite inappropriate to refuse them politely.

Thinking of this, he thought for a moment and then turned his attention to the manager.

"Let's go, I'll handle this matter myself -"

When he walked outside the gate of the mansion, even with his amazing eyesight, the motorcade that came to congratulate him could no longer be seen at a glance.

Those gathered in front of the palace gate were all dignitaries from the court.

At this time, when they saw the emperor's grandson welcoming him out of the palace in person, they were immediately overjoyed and gathered around to greet Zhao Ying. Still smiling, he returned the greeting meticulously.

Then he looked around at everyone and spoke in a sincere tone.

"Today I am happy to have a little girl. You don't think Ying is humble, but you can come to congratulate me in person. Ying Ming is so warm and kind. He should have personally welcomed you into the house and prepared a small amount of wine to entertain you. However, the house is busy today. His Majesty and All the relatives at home are also here——"

As he spoke, he looked at the people in front of him with an apologetic look, cupped his hands, and raised his voice.

"Besides, even if Ying has this intention today, I'm afraid he may not be able to do it..."

As he spoke, he made a helpless expression, and everyone couldn't help laughing. Immediately, a look of understanding appeared on their faces. There was nothing they could do. There were indeed too many people coming today. They also knew that in this situation, it was impossible for the host family to receive them all.

But the problem is, there is nothing you can do if you know it. If you should join in the fun, you have to join in.

I don’t ask His Majesty the Emperor Taisun to remember that I have been here, but I only ask His Majesty the Emperor Taisun not to remember that I have not come...

"Your Highness, there is no need to be polite. I am here just to express my feelings..."

"That's right, there's no need for your Highness to go to any trouble. All you need to do is send one or two officials from the palace to come forward..."

"..."

Zhao Ying raised his hands and pressed them down slightly. Suddenly all the sounds disappeared, and then Zhao Ying spoke sincerely.

"The addition of a child to the family is a private matter. How can Ying mobilize troops and work for the princes because of this matter? Moreover, we, the Qin Dynasty, established a country based on law and established people with integrity. As the emperor's grandson alone, how can we not be prudent?"

Hearing this, everyone's expressions couldn't help but change slightly.

If you are giving a gift, you will be rejected...

However, just when everyone had different thoughts, they heard Zhao Ying smiling and cupping his hands again.

"However, how can Ying live up to the deep friendship between you? Let's do this. No matter how high or low you are, Ying will only take one penny for your gift, in order to ensure that you come to congratulate me and to preserve your integrity and noble conduct. "

As soon as Zhao Ying said this, everyone was slightly startled.

This is the first time they have heard of receiving gifts like this since ancient times.

Zhao Ying looked around at the crowd, his expression becoming more humble and sincere.

"Today, taking a single piece of money is to take one out of ten thousand. It means that our great Qin monarchs and ministers are united, united, and determined to jointly create a peaceful foundation for our great Qin world..."

This must be applauded!
So, everyone cheered loudly.

"Your Highness is wise, I will serve you to the death and serve my great Qin until my death..."

Everyone came to give gifts, but suddenly, it was as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and they were screaming at the surface to be loyal, but they couldn’t figure out the situation behind them——

But it doesn't matter if you can't figure out the situation. You have to show your loyalty. After all, everyone is watching...

then……

In Xianyang City, the spectacular gift-giving procession suddenly became popular and became inexplicably enthusiastic. (End of chapter)
