my grandfather was qin shi huang

"promise!"

Zhuigu stepped aside with some regret.

"Cauldron, cauldron..."

Before anyone could enter the house, the younger sister flew over with her short legs in the air, and expertly hung herself on her elder brother's lap.

Zhao Ying laughed, casually took his little girl off his lap and put it on his shoulder.

Seeing that her daughter was pestering Zhao Ying again, Mi Ji couldn't help but scolded her.

"Come down quickly, your elder brother has been busy all day..."

When Zhao Qi heard his grandma's words, he hugged Zhao Ying's head tightly. Zhao Ying stood up with a smile and looked at the spinning wheels in the room.

"Grandma, are you spinning again?"

Mi Ji smiled and nodded.

"Anyway, I am idle. I can find something to do and pass the time——"

Speaking of this, Mi Ji suddenly thought of something and smiled.

"By the way, your third uncle, fourth uncle, and seventh aunt all came here today. They said they want to send the children in the family to our place to study with your second brother and the others. I want to ask you, Can it be done—"

Zhao Ying was startled for a moment when he heard this, then smiled and said.

"We're all a family. What's the point? If you want to come, then you can all come. It's just a matter of spending a few more dollars - you can go back and tell your servants to clear a yard and open a courtyard at home. In the school, ask some uncles and aunts about their intentions. If anyone is willing to send their children, send them all. You can't just pay attention to the third uncle, fourth uncle and seventh aunt, and neglect the other uncles and aunts. …”

Hearing Zhao Ying agree so readily and considerately, Mi Ji couldn't help but smile with relief on her face.

"Okay, then I'll do as you say, I'll ask someone to ask later -"

During this period of time, Zhao Ying had been thinking about how to unite the power of the Qin royal family, but he could not find a suitable way for a while. Opening a school would be a good idea.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Ying added.

"If it's inconvenient, I can just put it in the mansion that my eldest father rewarded me with - no one lives there anyway, so I can free up a few courtyards and open a dedicated school, which can also increase my popularity..."

When her son said this, Mi Ji naturally didn't think much about it and immediately agreed with a smile.

The two mansions on the left and right are not far apart, so it is convenient to take care of them.

Hearing that Zhao Ying was going to open a school at his home, and that a group of friends would come over to study with him, Zhao Qi was very excited, and for the first time he had the courage to ask more questions.

Zhao Ying had no intention of hiding it from him.

"When the time comes, you can't just study Legalism. I will hire a few more teachers. In addition to what you are learning now, there will also be courses like arithmetic, geography, physics, chemistry, etc. - the Art of War and the like. No less…”

Zhao Qi: ...

The excitement disappeared immediately.

On the contrary, Wang Nan on the side asked curiously.

"Husband, what are physics and chemistry..."

Zhao Ying was startled, then realized that he had not paid attention for a while and had slipped his mouth. So he explained with a smile.

"The study of studying things to achieve knowledge. During this period of time, I have read through various classics and figured out what I have just figured out - they are all very basic things. I will prepare a textbook myself later. If you are interested, you can take a look at it first. …”

Speaking of this, my heart suddenly moved.

"If you are willing, you can also become a teacher in school..."

When Wang Nan heard this, his eyes lit up instantly.

Like a chicken pecking at rice, he nodded repeatedly. Yue Ji looked aside, with a look of envy in her eyes. Zhao Ying smiled when he saw this.

"Yue Ji, you are proficient in music. If you can't stay idle, you can go over and teach them..."

Yue Ji was immediately happy.

"Thank you husband..."

On the contrary, Mi Ji on the side frowned slightly.

"This - it's not appropriate..."

Zhao Ying knew what Mi Ji's concerns were and persuaded with a smile.

"Auntie, it's nothing. Miss Weiyang from Taiwei's family has become the coordinator, and the female family member of our family wants to be a teacher. What's more, besides, it's in our own school, and the teachers are all our brothers. sisters……"

Although I feel something is wrong, since my own son said so, it shouldn't be wrong.

Mi Ji said nothing more.

Because both Wang Nan and Yue Ji were promised to become teachers, they were in a good mood. Zhao Xi, the younger sister, heard that her family was going to open a school and her two sisters-in-law were going to be teachers, so they also clamored to go to the school to study, which caused a lot of trouble. The atmosphere at the dinner table was quite cheerful.

Except of course Zhao Qi.

This guy is a little distracted right now.

Ah, I have to add another class——

Of course, everyone was in a good mood and no one cared about him.

On the contrary, Zhao Ying took the opportunity of eating to ask him about his study progress with concern, and asked him two small questions. Zhao Qi suddenly felt that when his school opened in the future, he might be able to stay there for food and accommodation.

Being alone is actually pretty good...

At this time, Mi Ji didn't know that her youngest son was already thinking of running away from home.

Still nodding secretly there, he was pleased that his eldest son knew how to care about his younger brothers and behave like an elder brother.

"By the way, when your fourth aunt came over today, she was asking about Xiang Yu, your subordinate. From what I heard, it seemed that Wan'er had taken a liking to that young man - don't worry about it, don't worry about it. Take some time to worry about, and go back to help ask..."

Zhao Ying, who put down his bowls and chopsticks and was about to go to the study, couldn't help but pause when he heard this. He subconsciously reached out and pinched his eyebrows, and nodded helplessly.

"it is good--"

It's not that he hasn't thought about it, it's that this thing itself is unreliable!

Who is Xiang Yu?

Originally, in history, they were the gravediggers of the Qin Dynasty!

Why did Xiang Yu stay?

Of course I forced myself to stay!

Moreover, he was about to throw him onto the grassland to fight with Mao Dun. Who knew what would happen in the future?

If this marriage really happens.

What kind of tricks will Xiang Yu try in the future? How will his cousin deal with her?

Therefore, he downplayed the matter intentionally or unintentionally.

But this-

But people are rushing to get married.

What a headache.

But now the fourth uncle Gao seems to be really interested in this matter, which is normal when you think about it. Xiang Yu himself is tall and handsome, and now he is the top scholar in martial arts in the imperial examination and has been given the position of garrison Qiemo.

Even on the surface, he is still a champion general, a talent cultivated by the Hexi County Sheriff himself!

Duo Tuo has a bright future and is the best candidate for son-in-law.

But I can't say, don't look for him, it's unreliable, this guy may overthrow our country of Daqin in the future...

After returning to his study, Zhao Ying frowned and pondered for a long time. Zhao Ying's heart moved slightly and he ordered the servants outside to call Xiang Yu over.

"Xiang Yu has met His Highness. I wonder what His Highness's instructions were when he called me here -"

Xiang Yu entered the study and bowed his head honestly.

Zhao Ying sat there, calmly looking at Xiang Yu who was honest in front of him, until he saw that Xiang Yu was a little unnatural, and then he said calmly.

"Xiang Yu, do you think that if your uncle suddenly raises troops to rebel in Kuaiji, do you think it will succeed?"

Xiang Yu: ...

Secretly wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he smiled bitterly.

"cannot--"

Not to mention that the emperor's eldest grandson had already understood the plan of his uncle and nephew and the county guard. Even if he didn't know, Da Qin had the emperor's eldest grandson, and he didn't dare to say success now.

Zhao Ying nodded calmly.

"Then do you think, if I lead troops to Kuaiji, how many people in Kuaiji do you think would dare to follow your uncle to fight against me? How many days can your uncle resist me with the few men and horses he has..."

Xiang Yu: ...

Although he felt aggrieved, and although he was reluctant to admit it, Xiang Yu had to lower his head after witnessing the terrifying methods of His Highness the Emperor's Grandson during this time.

"No one in the world can stop His Highness's military front..."

Hearing this, Zhao Ying picked up the teacup, squinted his eyes, and glanced at Xiang Yu who was standing in front of him with a half-smile.

"I am the current emperor's eldest grandson of the Qin Dynasty, a champion general who is deeply favored by the emperor, and your uncle is a fugitive from the Qin Dynasty and deliberately rebels. Do you think that I, the emperor's eldest grandson, should send troops to wipe out your uncle for the imperial court? This future trouble..."

When Xiang Yu heard this, his expression suddenly changed.

During these days, he had been submissive and resigned to his orders, for what reason?

Don’t you just want to avoid this situation?

"Your Highness, please show your noble hand——"

Xiang Yu bowed deeply to Zhao Ying with some frustration.

"As long as His Highness can let my uncle go, Yu is willing to be His Highness's pawn and let His Highness do whatever he wants..."

When Zhao Ying heard this, he nodded slightly and said calmly.

"Now, I give you a choice, either write a letter and ask your uncle to come to Xianyang. I will let the court absolve him of his guilt, arrange a mansion for him, and let him be a happy and wealthy man. Of course, if he If he is willing to join the court as an official, I can also arrange a future for him..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying glanced at Xiang Yu, whose expression changed drastically.

The tone was already a bit solemn.

"Or, I can lead troops to Kuaiji to meet with your famous uncle to see how much he is worth - you should know that I cannot leave such a big hidden danger for my Qin country... "

Xiang Yu was sweating profusely and said with some difficulty.

"Yu is willing to edit a letter, please--invite uncle to come to Xianyang..."

After saying this, Xiang Yu almost collapsed to the ground as if his backbone had been ripped out. With his intelligence, he naturally knew the purpose of Zhao Ying asking him to trick his uncle - ahem, call him to Xianyang.

It’s a prison, but it’s also a hostage!

But, what else can I do——

An unprecedented sense of powerlessness suddenly arose in his heart.

If there was no uncle, he would naturally rather draw his sword and die at the hands of the emperor's eldest grandson than surrender, but he could not just watch his uncle die——

Especially when his uncle's life and death depended on him, he couldn't give up.

Zhao Ying smiled and nodded.

"Sure enough, those who understand current affairs are heroes. I believe that after a few years, you will not regret your choice today——"

Having said this, Zhao Ying pushed the pen and paper in front of him and gestured.

"Come on, write a letter to your uncle, saying that you are in love with the daughter of the Gao family, and ask him to come and solemnize the marriage..."

Xiang Yu: ...

However, this is a reasonable reason!

If he really writes like this, his uncle may wonder why he wants to marry the daughter of the young master Gao's family, but with his love for him, he might really come to Xianyang.

There is no choice.

Xiang Yu wrote a letter to Xiang Liang in front of Zhao Ying and followed Zhao Ying's words, and then personally reported his current situation to his uncle.

He gained the appreciation of His Royal Highness the Emperor's Grandson, and received the favor of the imperial court, as well as a request to invite his uncle to come and solemnize his marriage.

Zhao Ying looked at it and put the letter away with satisfaction.

"Okay, you should also prepare. When your uncle arrives in Xianyang, he will prepare for your marriage to Wan'er..."

Xiang Yu:! ! ! ! ! !

He looked at Zhao Ying with a shocked face, but saw Zhao Ying nodded to him seriously.

"Wan'er, you should have met my cousin. She is of noble birth, dignified and beautiful. She is a rare and good match. Being able to marry Wan'er is also a blessing from your previous life..."

Having said this, Zhao Ying reached out and patted his shoulder.

"From now on, you will be my brother-in-law - work hard. With this relationship, you may not have the opportunity to become a marquis and general in the future and restore the glory of your ancestors..."

Xiang Yu: ...

I originally thought I was just writing a letter, but in the end I not only wrote a letter, but also a daughter-in-law.

Until he left Zhao Ying's study, he was kicking deeply and lightly, without waking up.

But he knew that he actually didn't have much choice.

In fact, this is already the best choice.

With this level of in-laws around, even if his uncle came to Xianyang, he would not be able to bear any grievances with the young master at his side. And he probably really has a chance to be reused by the emperor's eldest grandson and even the imperial court.

tsk—

The problem is solved.

Kill two birds with one stone!

I really have the potential to be a person and thinker - I didn't become a teacher in my previous life, so I wasted such an outstanding talent in vain. Zhao Ying sighed there himself, and then looked at the news sent from Tianxiang Pavilion.

No special news.

Because the hottest news right now is about himself and the First Emperor—ahem, mainly the news about Zhao Mu, Han Xin, and Zhang Liang.

As well as the mixed issue of selecting talents for this imperial examination.

They were all approved by me personally in the palace, so there is nothing to pay attention to.

The news over there is quite interesting.

There seems to be a disagreement between Yin Tong and Xiang Liang?

Although Jing used the word "suspect" very carefully, Zhao Ying still couldn't help but make Zhao Ying raise his eyebrows slightly with a playful smile. If it were different before, he would definitely let Jing and the others find a chance to add fuel to the fire. ,but now--

It's not necessary.

Xiang Liang is about to come to his bowl!

Being one of the 12 households in Xianyang, of course, in order to show the importance to this in-law and to protect the safety of this in-law, I, the eldest grandson of the emperor, had to give this in-law a bodyguard to accompany him and protect him. , with strong color.

Lingnan is still calm.

There was no news from Meng Tian.

On the contrary, Qian's caravan has begun to penetrate into various tribes in Lingnan, and its business is getting more and more prosperous. It has contacted many Dong villages and met many leaders of various tribes, which surprised him.

After thinking about it, he asked him to continue working hard, and then told him that he must make small profits but quick turnover, operate with integrity, and build the golden sign of the Changgongzi Mansion. Then he was rewarded with a farm outside Xianyang City.

He didn't expect that such a little person he picked up casually would bring such a big surprise to him.

Although there is no news from Lingnan, judging from the development of Qian's side, the situation should be relatively stable. In all likelihood, Meng Tian has basically mastered the situation in Lingnan.
