my grandfather was qin shi huang

Zhao Ying leaned over with a smile, took her off his lap, and held her in his arms. Although this sister is so cute and cute that her elder brother still can't even call her, she is becoming more and more dependent on him.

"Big brother-"

Seeing Zhao Ying come in, Zhao Qi, who was waiting to eat, stood up in awe and saluted.

Zhao Ying nodded and asked casually.

"How are you doing with your studies recently? Is that guy Zhao Gao really dedicated to teaching? If not, just tell me..."

Because he was afraid of backfiring, Zhao Ying did not specifically target Zhao Gao during this period, but he hoped from the bottom of his heart that Zhao Gao would make some mistakes. Unfortunately, this bitch was extremely stable.

When he arrived at the house, he really acted as his groom.

Be meticulous when doing things.

"Master Zhao——"

Before he finished speaking, he secretly looked at Zhao Ying's face, and then Zhao Qi said carefully.

"Zhao Gao is very dedicated and has good knowledge and swordsmanship..."

Zhao Ying nodded noncommittally.

Good, of course it is good, otherwise how could the First Emperor let him be Hu Hai's teacher.

He handed the little girl in his arms to the maid beside him and prepared to sit down and eat. But when he turned around, he found that Zhao Qi was still standing there, looking at him with a guilty conscience, but he hesitated to speak.

He immediately put down his chopsticks.

"What's up……"

"Brother, today Master Zhao - Zhao Gao's son-in-law, Yan Le from Xianyang came to visit Zhao, Zhao Gao..."

Zhao Qi knew that his eldest brother had always been sensitive and strict about Zhao Gao's affairs, so when he brought up the matter at this time, he felt anxious, fearing that it would cause Zhao Ying's displeasure.

Zhao Ying knew that there might be something more to say, otherwise Zhao Qi wouldn't have such an expression. Therefore, he didn't speak and just looked at Zhao Qi quietly. Zhao Qi became more and more nervous, but finally mustered up the courage to say.

"Yan Fu Ling said, Zhao, Zhao Gao's father is seriously ill, and he wants Zhao Gao to go back and see him..."

When Zhao Ying heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Yan Le, of course he knew that the current Xianyang Order, Zhao Gao's son-in-law, would be the main force that killed Hu Hai in later history. The last time Zhao Gao was convicted, Yan Le was not implicated because of the inexplicable attitude of the First Emperor.

Unexpectedly, he took the initiative to come to visit Zhao Gao today, and even wanted to ask for a favor and let Zhao Gao go back.

Zhao Ying glanced at Mi Ji and Wang Nan, who already looked impatient, and nodded obediently.

"Okay, you can make the decision on this matter..."

Seeing that his eldest brother spit out his words and left it to him to make the decision, Zhao Qi couldn't help but look excited and nodded vigorously.

"Thank you, brother——"

Zhao Ying waved his hand casually.

"Let's eat——"

With Zhao Ying's permission, Zhao Gao even came to Zhao Ying to express his gratitude before leaving. Zhao Ying looked at Zhao Gao with interest, who was submissive and could not see any resentment, and nodded slightly.

"It's human nature to visit parents. Since my brother Qi has spoken, then you can go..."

Zhao Gao bowed twice, turned around and thanked Zhao Qi, then turned around and left.

Be respectful and thoughtful.

It's impossible to find any mistakes.

Looking at Zhao Gao's disappearing back, an imperceptible coldness flashed in Zhao Ying's eyes.

This person must not stay.

It's so tolerable. No wonder, in the original history, even the First Emperor ignored this piece of shit, but was overturned by him afterwards. This kind of character is really beyond the reach of ordinary people.

……

Zhao Gao didn't know that because of this, the emperor's grandson became more determined to eradicate him.

After leaving the eldest son's house, he returned to his own house in a very low-key manner.

His mansion was given by the First Emperor. It occupies a large area and is very close to the palace. In the past, when he was in power, there would be a lot of traffic in front of the mansion and an endless stream of people waiting to see him.

Now, after only a month, I have become desolate.

Even the guards on duty at the door were gone. The door was closed and the scene was desolate.

Zhao Gao's expression remained unchanged and he went straight forward to open the door.

"Big brother-"

Here, as soon as Zhao Gaogang entered the door, Zhao Cheng, who received the news, came up to him with a look of surprise.

Zhao Gao nodded slightly.

"What happened to Aweng——"

"Aweng just felt the cold occasionally - it's the [-]th Young Master who wants to see you..."

Because of Zhao Gao, Zhao Cheng's younger brother is now Lang Zhongling, responsible for staying in the imperial palace, and can now be regarded as Hu Hai's subordinate. When Zhao Gao heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes and he lowered his voice.

"Where is the young master now?"

Now that he is in trouble, if the Eighteenth Young Master is willing to lend a helping hand and cooperate, he may not have a chance to make a comeback!

……

Naturally, Zhao Ying didn't know what Zhao Gao was doing at this time.

At this time, he was calmly sizing up the ordinary-looking young man in front of him.

"You are Cao Shen, who served as the jailer of Peixian County..."

"Your Highness, you are just a villain..."

Secretly sizing up the tall, heroic and handsome emperor's grandson in front of him, Cao Shen couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Looking at Cao Shen, who looked obviously a little reserved, Zhao Ying couldn't help but laugh.

Is this the famous Cao Shen who is Xiao Gui and Cao Sui?

"Don't be nervous. I just read your test paper and felt that you are quite talented, so I specially called you here to meet you..."

Zhao Ying saw Cao Shen's nervousness, smiled and comforted him, and then asked someone to serve Cao Shen tea.

Cao Shen was completely relieved when he saw that Zhao Ying was indeed as described in the legend, with a kind attitude and gentle treatment of others, without any airs of an imperial grandson.

I thought that Zhao Ying would question him about his knowledge, but instead, Zhao Ying asked him about his past situation in Peixian County as usual.

Cao Shen also thought that Zhao Ying wanted to understand his situation through his past, so he was very serious and answered all questions. He even told him that he resigned in anger because he was excluded by the county magistrate.

Anyway, with the energy of the emperor's eldest grandson, if he wanted to hide his past, he couldn't hide it.

"According to what you say, Xiao He and Liu Ji in your county are quite talented?"

Hearing that Zhao Ying seemed to be very interested in his two friends, Cao Shen immediately said seriously.

"Although Xiao He is just an official in the county, he has a lot of talent. Not only does he have great strategies and unique vision, but he also handles all matters in the county fairly and properly, without making any mistakes. His talents are a hundred times better than those of a villain..."

"As for Liu Ji, although he has a vulgar temperament and likes drinking and sex, he is kind and loving, quite heroic, has the ability to understand people and is tolerant of others. Not only the knights in the county admire him, but also the magistrate of Peixian County. He is strict, but also tolerates his disrespectful behavior - this is because Liu Ji has the ability to do things, and there are many county affairs that Liu Ji cannot do..."

Listening to Cao Shen's introduction, Zhao Ying couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, quite surprised.

He did not expect that Liu Ji would have so much energy in Peixian County. However, he felt relieved immediately. If he didn't really have two brushes, why could this old gangster be so prosperous in Pei County?

Not only did he dare to eat and drink at the banquet hosted by the county magistrate's distinguished guests, he even dared to openly tease the county officials.

The most important thing is that after teasing and humiliation, he can still be safe and sound, and continue to fuck his own Surabaya Pavilion Chief. How can he do it without two brushes?

"Now that you say that, I'm actually interested in them -"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying seemed to be speaking casually.

"I intend to recruit the people you mentioned, Chief Xiao and Liu Ji. Are you willing to lobby for me and go and recruit these two people..."

Cao Shen couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard that Zhao Ying was willing to recruit his two friends.

"The villain is willing to go!"

Zhao Ying was overjoyed.

"Then Mr. Lao Cao——"

Having said this, Zhao Ying asked someone to take the pen and paper, write a letter personally, and hand it to Cao Shen.

"I have obtained your Majesty's permission and will send troops to the Xiongnu in the near future. It is the time to recruit people. If you can recruit these two people before I send the troops, it will be a great achievement - my great military merit is the most important in Qin. If you can come in time, But come with me to send troops to the Huns..."

When Cao Shen heard this, he couldn't help but perked up!

"I will live up to His Highness's trust!"

……

Originally, Zhao Ying wanted to let Cao Shen rest at his house for a day. Who knows, Cao Shen became more motivated and left the house that afternoon. In order to rush for time, Zhao Ying simply let him ride in the official carriage in the name of official business.

The galloping roads of the Qin Dynasty were almost equivalent to today's highways. They could cover more than 400 miles in a day. If they marched in a hurry and traveled day and night, changing horses without changing people, they could cover seven to eight hundred miles a day and a night!

The speed of troop delivery was unparalleled in the world, and the feudal dynasties of later generations could only follow behind.

The main problem why Zhao Ying is so urgent is that time is too tight. He needed to develop a usable team as soon as possible before the First Emperor passed away.

no doubt.

Both Xiao He and Liu Ji are well-deserved heroes of this era. If they are used well, they will definitely be a big help. In the past, it was difficult to rush to recruit people, but now with Cao Shen as a factor, everything goes smoothly.

As for, can you please come over?

Zhao Ying didn't consider it.

Such a talent, especially a talent like Liu Ji, is now just a small pavilion chief. If he can't recruit people personally, Zhao Ying feels that there is no need for such a person to live.

Is it possible to keep it to dig the grave of Da Qin later?

Therefore, when Cao Shen left, Zhao Ying asked him to take Gai Nie, Chen Sheng and a dozen of the scout battalion's elite soldiers with him, euphemistically saying that they would accompany him to protect him and build up his momentum!

……

Three days later, Wang Nan returned home.

Zhao Ying personally accompanied him.

My eldest uncle, Wang Li, smiled like an idiot. At noon that day, he successfully drank himself under the table. The old general Wang Jian was old and didn't drink much, but he chatted and chatted for a long time.

There is no trace of the majestic old general's posture in the past. He is clearly an ordinary man, an old grandfather who watches his children get married and start a family.

Wang Nan was left to stay temporarily with his mother that day.

Zhao Ying finally got a few days of breathing space.

Although he is in good health, he can't beat the plowing fields no matter how strong the cow is. What's more, Wang Nan didn't marry himself, but there were several pretty girls in the same room.

However, Zhao Ying was not idle either.

After all, troops were about to be dispatched. In the past few days, in addition to going to the palace every morning to help the First Emperor handle government affairs, he would also run to the military camp.

Intermediate generals with more than [-] generals were often summoned to the new camp. In the camp, they looked at the map of the country and the country to deduce the route of troops to the Xiongnu.

When they heard that they were going to follow the emperor's eldest grandson to send troops to the Xiongnu, the crowd suddenly became excited and everyone was gearing up.

Even Li Xin, who always had a calm expression, felt a little stronger when walking.

As for the First Emperor, his actions did not stop, and all kinds of equipment were sent over as if they were free of charge.

All the soldiers were in full armor, equipped with two horses, long swords, crossbows, and halberds, and were almost armed to the teeth. This is not the standard for new recruits. This is clearly treating these people as middle- and lower-level generals!

Also in these days, all the war horses were equipped with high-bridge saddles, stirrups, and horseshoes that the Shaofu had long reserved.

Money and food were poured down like water.

Even Zhao Ying felt that the cost of an army of more than 3000 people and a small army worth 10 was a bit exaggerated.

"Big father - do you still have enough money..."

The front foot had just been exempted from a year's tax as the leader of the world in Guizhou because of his marriage. Now that he has spent so generously, many officials in the DPRK and the Central Government have already raised objections.

"I can't ever wrong my grandson - you don't have to worry about money matters. Let Shi Lu figure out a way for things like this..."

Shi Lu: ...

Shi Lu, who was about to complain about his poverty to the First Emperor and wondered if he could reduce his expenses, almost cried on the spot when he heard this.

It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, Your Majesty!

I'm not a rooster that lays golden eggs——

'"Your Majesty, I am about to report back to you, but the fees at Lingqu Canal are not enough. Do you think that His Highness the Emperor Changsun can..."

"cannot!"

Before he finished speaking, the First Emperor directly shouted back.

"The emperor's eldest grandson is about to go on an expedition against the Huns. There is no logistics, no equipment, and no battle. Do you want my grandson to risk his life..."

Shi Lu: ...

You are simply being unreasonable!

His Highness the Emperor Changsun is said to have no equipment——

The equipment is almost enough to equip an army of 10 people!

"Haha——Master Shi, please be patient..."

Seeing that Shi Lu's face was as bitter as a bitter gourd, Zhao Ying couldn't help but laugh.

"Money cannot be saved. If you want to replenish your treasury, you have to find ways to increase revenue and make money..."

Shi Lu:! ! ! ! ! !

This is basically just standing up and talking without pain in the back. Who doesn’t know the truth? The key is where to open source and where to make money?

He was already thinking about scolding his mother.

But I didn’t dare.

"Your Majesty has just exempted taxes...but the next year's taxes haven't been collected yet..."

Shi Lu held it in for a long time before he finally managed to choke out a sentence.

Zhao Ying patted his shoulder with a smile.

"Don't worry, it's not easy to make money. I have a way here that can be worth millions of dollars - how about giving it to you..."

Shi Lu looked at him with a wry smile.

"Your Highness, don't be joking. Money is not the soil in the field. How can it be so easy to make money..."

However, the First Emperor couldn't help but feel a movement in his heart, and suddenly there was a glimmer of expectation in his eyes.
