Who knows, family members? The system was intercepted by the First Emperor.

Chapter 420 The Promise for Next Spring

The next night ended with Ying Zheng unable to sleep and talking to Li Jiang who claimed he could not sleep.

In the end, the only one who couldn't sleep was Ying Zheng. Li Jiang had already gone to meet Duke Zhou.

I don't know if it's because I slept too much during the day, or because I talked too deeply with Li Jiang today.

Or maybe it was because Li Jiang's snoring was still so loud that Ying Zheng fell into insomnia again.

The ministers were already used to it.

Looking at His Majesty's face, one knew that he must be sleeping with Master Li.

The ministers of the DPRK and China winked at each other.

Feng Quji: Lao Wang, look at His Majesty’s face.

Wang Jian: What, are you envious?

Cao Shen: Meng Yi, how do you think I should write this chronicle of the emperor?

Meng Yi: My eldest brother is coming back...

Cao Shen: How do I write, brothers, please help me, how do I write about the emperor and the national preceptor...

Meng Yi: My eldest brother is coming back...

Ying Zheng could clearly see every little move of all the courtiers in the court.

Li Jiang naturally knew what these ministers were thinking.

[It doesn’t matter. If Brother Zheng is gone, I will go back. 】

[I don’t want to waste any more time here. 】

She really didn't think it mattered anymore.

Since coming here can't change Ying Zheng's lifespan, it's better to go back.

The next monarch who has changed Great Qin has also brought so many more advanced things to Great Qin.

She really doesn't know how to use firearms, nor does she know how to use them.

She had never touched it before, and she had nothing left for Da Qin.

As long as Great Qin pays attention to food and people and no longer becomes a complete militarism, then Great Qin will continue.

Ying Zheng listened to Li Jiang's voice and felt a heavy weight on his shoulders. He was carrying two lives.

All the ministers looked at the three giants above, but only the prince was still working diligently to handle affairs.

Wang Ben has already begun to lead his people to attack the Maurya Dynasty. It will be a matter of time to defeat it.

Li Jiang was also a little ready to make a move when he heard what was going on in the Western Region.

[If Brother Zheng can get over this hurdle. 】

[I must lead troops to fight in the Western Regions. 】

[What to thank Zuo Zongtang? Direct thanks to Li Jiang. 】

With the preparation from the previous two nights, Ying Zheng might have gotten used to Li Jiang's snoring every night.

Today, Li Jiang is still sleeping in the center of the palace, and Ying Zheng is sleeping in the inner room.

For several days, Li Jiang and Ying Zheng slept on the floor and on the bed without disturbing each other.

"Your Majesty, if someone told you that a certain minister would cause Great Qin to decline rapidly in the future, would you kill this minister first?"

Li Jiang lay in the hall and asked in a muffled voice.

This doubt is the doubt that has been bothering her for so many years.

She had hinted at Zhao Gao and Li Si many times, but Ying Zheng had never really abandoned them or killed them to avoid future trouble.

Ying Zheng was lying on the bed, listening to Li Jiang's voice.

"I have never stopped eating because of choking, and I will never kill talented people at will for the sake of the so-called future."

"As long as he is really talented, I will not use them."

As for whether to take it with you before you die, that's another matter.

"I will only think about whether there is any shortcoming in my measures that allowed these people to create chaos."

"If there is, then improve it. If Da Qin can really decline quickly because of a few people, it means that there is a problem with Da Qin's system itself."

"It is easy to kill one person, but difficult to bring peace to the world."

Li Jiang understood.

[Brother Zheng will not immediately raise the butcher's knife just because of some events in future generations. 】

[But to take precautions, I really use the art of employing people to the extreme. 】

[No wonder the history books smear my brother Zheng as having an angry temper. 】

[But there is no record of him killing heroes indiscriminately. 】

[It doesn’t matter. Brother Zheng can use it if he wants. It doesn’t matter if I finish it for Brother Zheng. 】

[When the time comes, just let Lipu deal with it for Li Si and Zhao Gao. 】

Thinking about it this way, Li Jiang felt that he was quite great.

"His Majesty……"

Just as Ying Zheng was about to fall asleep, he heard Li Jiang's voice again, and he said helplessly "Yeah".

Li Jiang asked weakly: "Your Majesty, wait for spring..."

"Can you order me to lead troops to fight in the Western Region?"

"You want to go to war?"

Ying Zheng understood the meaning of Li Jiang's words. In spring, in spring, the hurdles have been overcome.

"I just want to see..."

[I just want future generations to thank me. 】

"The battlefield is too dangerous."

"If you want to go, wait until spring and I will take you with me."

"Okay...then...Brother Zheng...speak...forget..."

Li Jiang fell asleep before he finished speaking the last word.

Since Li Jiang told him about this matter, Lipu has been studying hard every day.

If he's not fighting against Zhao Tong, he's sharpening his sword in the Imperial Prefect's Mansion.

I'm afraid that it will hold my mother back when the time comes.

The palace servants at the Imperial Prefect's Mansion watched Lip Pu either playing with a sword or sharpening it in the yard every day.

They were all trembling with fear.

They had also heard the rumor. Could it be that Young Master Li couldn't stand the rumor and wanted to fight for it?

Li Jiang still went back to the Imperial Prefect's Mansion for dinner every day after going to court.

After taking some time, the servant in charge found Li Jiang.

"Master Li...recently...young Master Li, something is not right lately."

Li Jiang raised his head from his meal: "Oh? What's wrong? Tell me more?"

[Is it possible that you are broken up in love? 】

[Yu Yu finally realized that he was different from normal people? 】

[Or did you break up with Hu Hai early? 】

The young palace servant who was serving Li Jiang looked out carefully, then turned his head and whispered.

"Master Li, young Master Li has been sharpening his knife in the yard lately."

As he spoke, he made a gesture of wielding the sword: "After sharpening the sword, Young Master Li always wields the sword. Master Li, would you like to..."

After saying that, the little palace man hesitated and said nothing.

Let's not talk about it. If Lipu causes any serious trouble in the future, they won't have to live.

But let’s face it, it touched upon the privacy of Master Li and Young Master Li, so she didn’t dare to say it…

Li Jiang was listening with great interest when he saw the young palace man squeezing his belly.

"Tsk~"

Li Jiang frowned: "Why are you still in suspense? The key is stuck."

“Are you going to buy it if you keep listening to it?”

"what?"

The little palace man was confused and didn't know what the imperial master was talking about.

Li Jiang waved his hand and said, "Say it quickly, I'll make spicy hot pot for you tonight."

The little palace lady doesn't want to eat spicy hotpot, she just wants the Imperial Master's Mansion to be protected from being taken over.

"Master Li, could it be that Young Master Li also heard the rumors...so...so..."

In the end, I still didn't dare to say the words "assassination of His Majesty".

Li Jiang suddenly understood the meaning of the little palace maid's daring to say this. She was worried that Li Pu would be sharpening his sword to His Majesty.

"Don't worry, this kid Lipu... just wants to go to the battlefield. I will tell him."

Seeing that Li Jiang knew what was going on, the young palace man nodded and felt relieved.

Master Li already knows about it, so it shouldn't be a big deal, right?

Sure enough, Li Jiang had just finished eating and was resting in his room when he heard Li Pu's voice ringing in the yard.

"Uncle Zhao, I feel that this knife is not fast enough."

After saying that, after a while, I heard the sound of sharpening a knife, swishing, swishing.

Li Jiang took a look and found that Li Pu was playing and sharpening a machete in the yard.

"What are you doing, Hercules? Are you going to kill pigs instead and sharpen your butcher's knife?"
