Chapter 3 Building an Empire?

The next day, Zhao Jun slept until the sun was up.

Whether it should be said or not, Ying Zheng probably didn't want to embarrass her too much, he just locked her in an empty room and didn't take her to the prison.

She rubbed her sore eyes, got up and twisted her waist to move around. When did Ying Zheng come to her? She couldn't just leave herself here to dry. Besides, she didn't see anyone bring her food. Did she want to starve to death? .

Suddenly, just as Jun Zhao stretched his waist and was about to call for someone, there were several small voices outside, as if someone was talking.

"Have you heard that Mr. Fusu has been punished by the king again?"

"Why, why is someone as gentle as Mr. Fusu..."

"I heard that it was the young master who spoke for Lord Changping at the court today. You also know the temper of the king, and you were furious and punished the young master at that time."

"Forget it, these are not things we should worry about, let's get ice for the Queen Mother quickly, alas, there is not much ice left in such a hot Tiangong, let's go."

Zhao Jun listened quietly.

It should be a slave in the palace. I don't know that there are people in this room who are whispering in private.

But judging from what they said, Ying Zheng might not be in a good mood today, and he should be careful when he speaks for himself.

Sure enough, someone came after a while, and two burly soldiers took her to Ying Zheng's bedroom, which was the room last night.

Along the way, Zhao Jun looked around. The architecture of the Qinhuang Palace in this era is completely inferior to that of the later Forbidden City. It is not so magnificent but has a dusty feeling, probably because it has not yet begun to exploit the blood of laborers.

When approaching the sleeping hall, Zhao Jun saw a shadow kneeling at the door from a distance, and when he got closer, he realized that it was a child about twelve or thirteen years old, he was kneeling straight, with a look of sadness on his face.

"Master Fusu, don't be like this, the king told you to get up and go back to the palace." A servant with a hunched waist came out and said.

"Father still doesn't want to see me." The young man frowned and murmured softly.

"My lord, just listen to my advice and don't bother with Chu's affairs. Your Majesty won't listen, so why do you want to make him suffer?" After speaking, the servant didn't say anything and went straight back.

"Your Majesty, people have brought it here."

"Okay, you all go down, don't let anyone in."

Finally, Jun Zhao saw Ying Zheng again. Unlike the sizing up by the dim candlelight last night, Jun Zhao carefully looked at the man not far away today.

I think no one will be curious about this legendary emperor through the ages, and Zhao Jun is no exception. He looks very young, wearing a dark black robe, with long hair neatly tied up high, and a pair of red phoenix eyes that are not majestic and angry , There are marks left by frowning all year round between the brows, and the sharp thin lips may indicate that he is a fickle person. When you look at his eyes, you can feel that there are turbulent waves and domineering that sweep everything.

"Hello, my lord. I didn't expect that we would meet one day. I believe you should believe what I said last night. The glass over there is exactly what I gave you on the third day of our acquaintance."

It seems that the mirror last night gave her some confidence, Zhao Jun is not so afraid anymore, she has the capital to exchange.

Ying Zheng has been observing her silently since Zhao Jun came in, and he has ninety percent confidence in her origin.

"Then why did you suddenly appear here? What is your purpose for coming here?" He sat on the couch and stared at Zhao Jun.

"It is God's choice that I came here. You will become the eternal emperor who will rule the world in the future. I am here to help you."

Zhao Jun said half-truth and half-falsely, it is better not to tell him about the mirror.

"Oh yes, then what can you do to help the widow? Didn't you say that you are a fairy, then you should give the widow a pill of immortality first."

No, Yingzheng, oh Yingzheng, the elixir of immortality is about to be exported, no wonder he was deceived by Xu Fu!
"Um, there is no such thing as an immortality pill." Zhao Jun glanced at Ying Zheng's gloomy face, "However, it doesn't mean there can't be one in the future, does it?"

In case the system can connect to the Immortal World in the future, it will be fine, let’s draw the cake first.

"Really, what if you don't live to that time." He threatened.

"How is it possible, I am such a great talent, I believe that you will definitely not waste it, I will definitely work hard to help you build an empire and let you see my ability."

Why are these words so familiar? It seems to be a pie I drew for my boss when I was applying for a job. Now Yingzheng is equivalent to my boss. The difference is that the previous boss can only decide my salary, but the current boss can decide my salary. life and death.

"Okay, the widow will give you a chance to stay in Qin and build the empire."

Ying Zheng said in a loud voice suddenly, which made Zhao Jun tremble with fright.

"In this way, the widow will first appoint you as the female historian of the imperial court, and you will temporarily live in the palace. You must quickly think about how to build an empire," he shouted outside, "Sun Cheng, this is the newly appointed female historian of the imperial court, and she will be in front of the palace from now on." It's time for an errand, you arrange it."

The one who walked in was the servant from before, he answered and led Zhao Jun out.

"I'll take you to your residence first. This is where you live. Most of the servants in front of the imperial court live here. It's close. The room is for two people. The one who lives with you is Qingliu. She will It should be on an errand, by the way, I don't know the girl's name yet."

Along the way, Sun Cheng secretly looked at this female history who appeared suddenly. He had never heard of it before. Could it be that the king kept him by his side...

"Oh, my name is Zhao Jun. I know the basics. By the way, let me ask where the dining room is."

Along the way, she has already asked almost all the questions, and she will find out more in the future. She should solve her stomach first. She hasn't eaten since last night, and she is already very hungry.

"Oh, the dining room is just to the west, you can just walk along this road, I won't send you there, you have to go back to work."

"Okay, it's okay, I can go there by myself, you can be busy."

Zhao Jun sent Sun Cheng away and immediately walked towards the dining room. After a while, she saw a not-so-big house with only three or four people working on errands. She was standing on the side and happened to meet someone from the front of the imperial court who came to give Yingzheng a house. Take food.

She took a quick glance and saw a bunch of vegetables piled up in the bowl, she didn't seem to have much appetite, and she was suddenly full of apprehension about the next lunch.

"Who are you, are you here to get lunch?" A middle-aged aunt-like woman shouted at Zhao Jun who was stunned on the spot, "Why are you still standing there, come and get it." The auntie waved to her enthusiastically .

"Well, I'm from the imperial court, and I'm here to get lunch."

Zhao Jun walked into the dining room hesitantly.

"Yo Yuqian, hurry up and get it. Today's lunch includes boiled meat and pickled meat, both of which are delicious."

The aunt greeted her warmly and brought her two bowls of food.

Zhao Jun silently looked at the delicious food she said.

Chun boiled, a sauce made from unknown ingredients, sticky and piled together, with a slight fishy smell.

The pickled meat looks like mutton slices, with a strong mutton smell.

She looked at it for a long time and still didn't make a move.

Is this really delicious?
It seems that I know nothing about the hardships of this era? !
