my grandfather was qin shi huang

Chapter 145 Hu Hai: I shouldn’t be here

Lu Wan wouldn't care about this. She was over 30 years old and could not even get along with the widows in the village. Even the old sow looked handsome. How could she be so pretentious!

If you have the time, you might as well take a few bites of Fan Kuai's stupidly cooked dog meat.

Work hard!

Cao Shen and Xiao He continued to talk about the emperor's eldest grandson Zhao Ying's upcoming marriage to the legitimate daughter of the Wang family.

"Brother Xiao, what do you mean by this current majesty? He has clearly expelled the eldest son to Shangjun, and seems to have no intention of letting him come back, but he loves the emperor's eldest grandson so much. , not only helped him matchmaking, let him mix with the Mengxi Bai San family, but now also let him marry the daughter of the Wang family..."

Cao Shen held the wine glass and took a sip.

Smiling and cursing.

"This dog emperor, isn't he just out of his mind and wants to skip his son and make his grandson a prince directly..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt a little ridiculous and couldn't help laughing.

Xiao He glanced at Cao Shen, who was almost choking with laughter. His hand holding the wine glass paused, and he suddenly said meaningfully.

"Even so, why not..."

Cao Shen: ...

stunned.

At this moment, even Chief Liu Dating and Lu Wan couldn't help but stop what they were doing and looked over with raised eyebrows. Liu Ji even laughed and cursed.

"Xiao, you are alarmist and talking nonsense. How can I give up my kingdom to my grandson? According to you, the [-]th Young Master is not allowed to rebel - anyway, if it were me, the old man would dare to do this. I just have to make a fuss..."

Xiao He didn't say anything, he just looked at him and laughed.

If you have the skills, don't brag here. Go home and talk to your old man. It's not like these people haven't seen your old man deal with them. They are just pretending here...

"How are you preparing for your wedding..."

Hearing Xiao He ask about this, Liu Ji waved his hand carelessly.

"What else can we do? Let's just do that -"

Cao Shen on the side smiled and joked.

"I have met that girl from the Lu family. Although she is young, beautiful and noble, she is not easy to get along with. You are so arrogant. Be careful that your wife will keep you out of bed after you get married... …”

Everyone couldn't help laughing.

Even Wu Fu and Wang Yu stood aside and laughed apologetically.

Regarding these pornographic accents, Liu Dating accepted them all and retorted unceremoniously.

"When I'm a soft-footed shrimp like you——"

While cursing, Chief Liu Dating picked up a cooked lamb chop and just brought it to his mouth to chew, when he suddenly stopped again.

"Don't just laugh at me. What's going on with you? Is that old guy who should be talking about making things difficult for you again? If you're still angry, tell your brother that I'll find a few people at night to trouble him... "

When Chief Liu Dating asked about this, Cao Shen put down his wine glass with a wry smile.

"Forget it, don't cause trouble. That dog official is determined to make room for his brother-in-law. If I don't leave, sooner or later I will be even more embarrassed -"

Having said this, Cao Shen couldn't help but spit, picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.

"I've had enough of that bitch's arrogance. If you don't want me to stay here, I'll have my own place to stay. After finishing this drink, I'll go back and resign..."

Liu Dating slapped the table.

"If you dare to bully my brother Liu Ji, I must make him look good..."

"Yes, I will throw bricks at their house at night..."

Lu Wan also looked angry.

"Liu Ji, you are going to get married in a few days. You don't want to do this wedding, right..."

Xiao He saw these two people singing and working there in harmony, and glared at them angrily. He was really worried that they would drink some wine, get hot-headed, and give the county captain some eye drops.

When the time comes, even I can't help them.

Although Chief Liu Dating cursed and looked disapproving when he heard this, he never mentioned any trouble with the county captain again. Xiao He turned to look at Cao Shen standing aside.

"Brother Cao, you have a place to go..."

Cao Shen smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"I am a small prison warden with no power and no acquaintance of any dignitaries, so where can I go? However, I am not like Brother Xiao, who has a family burden. One person has enough to eat, and the whole family is not hungry. It’s not like that, I’m just going on a study tour..."

When Xiao He heard this, he pondered for a moment.

"I think maybe you can go to Xianyang and try your luck with His Highness the Emperor's Grandson..."

Seeing everyone looking at him, Xiao He explained with a smile.

"The emperor's eldest grandson has just opened his palace, which is the time to hire people. Moreover, he recruits talents differently from others. Regardless of status or origin, he only recruits talents based on their talents. If Brother Cao has a great talent, he will definitely have a place... "

"Xiao, didn't you say some time ago that Xianyang is a place of right and wrong, and that the world may be in chaos? Why did you suddenly persuade Cao Shen to seek refuge with that eldest grandson of the emperor..."

Chief Liu Dating looked at Xiao He with some confusion.

Xiao He was startled for a moment and shook his head gently.

"At this moment, at that moment, the emperor's eldest grandson is favored by His Majesty, supported by the Mengxi Bai San clan and the Meng family. Now he is about to marry the legitimate daughter of Tongwuhou's house. The situation has become a success - that Your Majesty may have other thoughts, and it’s hard to say where this world will go…”

After hearing Xiao He's analysis, Cao Shen immediately made up his mind and nodded slowly.

"Okay, let's listen to Brother Xiao. Early tomorrow morning, Cao will leave for Xianyang - and then I won't say goodbye to you all..."

Having said this, Cao Shen looked to the side of the pavilion, Chief Liu Da, and cupped his hands.

"I'm afraid Cao won't be able to attend Brother Liu's wedding banquet. Please don't take offense to Brother Liu..."

As he spoke, he took out dozens of large coins from his arms and patted them into Liu Ji's hand.

"These are some congratulatory gifts from brothers..."

Liu Ji glanced at him, cursed and pushed his arm away.

"I'm sending you three melons and two dates? Keep them all for me..."

As he spoke, he touched his body, and finally opened his pocket, and poured out all the copper coins in his pocket. Looking at the few scattered Qin coins, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed on his face. He immediately turned to look at Lu Wan aside.

"Give me all the money you have, and I will pay you back when I have money..."

Without saying a word, Lu Wan followed Liu Bang's example and poured out all the money he had.

Even though the two of them put their money together, it was only fifty or sixty dollars, but at least it looked better than before.

Liu Ji couldn't help but push the copper coins on the table towards Cao Shen.

"Take it, I'll pay for it on the way - when I go to Xianyang for a business trip next time, I'll go and have a drink with you..."

……

At this time, Zhao Ying did not know that another person who was capable of becoming prime minister in later generations was coming to join him. At this time, he was looking at a pair of shiny black armor at Shaofu Zuo Sikongjiu with great interest. .

This armor is different from the ordinary armor of Great Qin. Except for the hollow mask on the face, almost all parts are wrapped in iron armor.

At this time, Sikong Jiu was introducing his proud work with a proud look on his face.

"This armor was specially designed for His Highness. It uses multiple precious materials including meteorite iron. It is extremely strong and can withstand a three-stone bow. Ordinary swords can hardly damage it..."

Zhao Ying couldn't help but look happy.

This is exactly the armor I want——

In this era, wearing this is like a mobile fortress, an insoluble existence.

Sikong Jiu was talking enthusiastically when he suddenly felt someone tugging on his sleeve. When he looked down, he saw his little apprentice winking at him desperately.

Immediately unhappy.

I can tell others everything I want, I have an open heart and a bright and graceful life. What are you trying to do here? In the eyes of the emperor's eldest grandson, you will not think that I, Sikong Jiu, did anything!

"Speak straight!"

The young apprentice looked at his master who looked unhappy, and then at His Highness the Emperor's Grandson who was looking at him with a smile. He gritted his teeth and felt worried.

"Master, your armor weighs more than 100 kilograms..."

No matter what, if I don't say anything today, I'm afraid the master will kick me out directly.

As soon as the young apprentice finished speaking, the smile on Sikongjiu's face suddenly froze.

Then he secretly looked at the emperor's grandson in front of him with some guilty conscience. At that time, I only wanted to build an all-round armor with no blind spots and good defensive performance in accordance with the requirements of the emperor's grandson, and then I forgot about the weight issue.

More than 100 pounds of armor.

Normal person, who wears this?

On the battlefield, you don't need to kill the enemy. You will be exhausted automatically after running around for a while.

Suddenly, Zhao Ying thought of his 500-pound Tianlong City-Breaking Halberd, and suddenly felt that it was quite normal for the armor to weigh over 100 kilograms.

After all, you can't expect a talented person with a bad mind to have any ideas in mind.

I stretched out my hand and weighed it, and found that the weight was okay.

"It's okay, help me put it on first and try it..."

Sikongjiu and his young apprentice were sweating profusely from their busy schedule, and then they reluctantly helped Zhao Ying put on this freshly made armor.

Zhao Ying moved a bit and felt almost no weight.

The design of the joints is also very exquisite. He can pick up a long stick and wield a set of halberds without affecting the continuity of the movements at all.

He couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Sikong Jiu who was watching from the side.

"Good armor, awesome-"

The master and disciple were immediately overjoyed.

Nowadays, Sikongjiu is regarded as a registered official of the imperial court, and he is not in his own name. Therefore, Zhao Ying cannot reward him, so he can only have dozens of pieces of silk and satin, and dozens of jars of wine as a token of his gratitude. .

Then, he said hello to Shaofu Shilu and asked him to help record a credit for this blacksmith who was a little abnormal.

Then he put away the armor, put it on the horse, and went back with satisfaction.

In ancient times, armor was usually put on by dedicated people when facing battle, and mules and horses were usually used to transport it.

Otherwise, carrying dozens of kilograms of stuff on the body would be a huge drain on the soldiers' physical strength. Of course, these small flaws do not exist here in Zhao Ying.

What happened to the hundred-ten-pound armor?

Nothing at all!

If possible, he even thought it could be heavier.

……

Back to the house.

Zhao Ying was very surprised to see an old acquaintance. Zhao Gao, the former CRRC who had been lying in bed for many days, got out of bed.

He was using a cane to supervise Zhao Qi's sword practice in the yard.

Seeing Zhao Ying coming, he quickly bowed and saluted.

"I have seen His Highness..."

Zhao Ying nodded lightly.

"My second brother's swordsmanship and law will be left to you. I hope you won't disappoint me..."

He was trying his best to restrain the urge in his heart to crush this person to death casually.

Before Zhao Gao's inner sins began to be carried out, Zhao Gao was still the most capable assistant around the First Emperor so far.

He is humble and prudent, meticulous and never oversteps his bounds of etiquette, making it impossible for anyone to find any faults.

If he was accidentally crushed to death, it would be difficult to explain to the outside world.

In fact, not to mention the outside world, even my own grandmother and this silly, cute-looking younger brother have to complain about themselves.

"Old slave understands..."

Zhao Gao lowered his head, not daring to look into Zhao Ying's eyes. For some reason, at a certain moment, he even had the illusion that he might be crushed to death by the Emperor's Grandson at any time.

"Brother, Master Zhao is knowledgeable, has superb swordsmanship, and is very attentive..."

Seeing my eldest brother coming back.

Zhao Qi put away his sword and came over excitedly.

Zhao Ying nodded noncommittally.

"Study hard——"

After saying that, he turned around and left. What he was thinking about was, how can I find a chance to kill Zhao Gao, a thief.

Unless I kill myself, I always feel unsettled.

Time passed in the blink of an eye, more than ten days passed, and Zhao Ying's marriage also reached the stage of accepting the gift and asking for the date.

At this stage, the groom can no longer sit idle and watch on the sidelines.

At this moment, the news that the First Emperor and Zhao Ying had been waiting for came from the Black Ice Platform.

As the first batch of books were delivered to counties and counties in Shandong, those remnants of the Six Kingdoms finally could no longer sit still.

In order to prevent these books from flowing to the public, they decisively made a deal and bought all the books.

From this alone, the Qin court made hundreds of thousands of dollars in profit!

Profiteering!

Although it is said to be sold cheaply, books in this era are expensive. Not to mention anything else, it takes a lot of effort to make those slips and bamboo slips suitable for writing, and then you need to use cowhide to handle them. These letters are all connected together...

Even so, the prerequisite is that you have somewhere to copy it.

Therefore, even if it is said to be cheap, it is still much more expensive than the books of later generations.

As this news came back, there was also the situation of the storytellers of the Qin Dynasty. As the storytellers of the Qin Dynasty, mainly composed of Confucian disciples and Mohist apprentices, went to the public to personally promote "Forging the Soul of the Army" and explain the policies of the Qin Dynasty, it has become a fact The work of guiding public opinion, which had failed for a long time, has been started again, and it is almost unstoppable.

After receiving the news, the grandfather and grandson couldn't help but look at each other and laugh.

"It's done, Father, it seems we can consider the next step..."

Zhao Ying's face was full of smiles.

The First Emperor was also very happy. When he thought of the shocked and aggrieved expressions on the faces of those dogs who had been hiding in the dark like mice to cause trouble for him after knowing the truth, he couldn't help but want to laugh loudly.

"Hahaha……"

……

Listening to the hearty laughter coming from time to time in the hall, Hu Hai felt very sad.

So, what do I do as a captain of the imperial army?
