my grandfather was qin shi huang

"Rocking chair?"

The First Emperor looked at the strange-looking chair on the ground with some confusion, but his body did not refuse, and he slowly sat down under Zhao Ying's encouraging eyes.

However, he leaned back tentatively.

The center of gravity shifted backwards, and the instant feeling of weightlessness shocked him. He subconsciously grasped the armrests of the chair. Before he could react, the chair swayed back smoothly.

However, as it swayed slightly up and down, he tried to adjust his body, and found it surprisingly comfortable.

First Emperor:……

Looking at the eldest grandson with a smirk on his face, the First Emperor couldn't help laughing and scolding.

"You little bastard, you dare to trick even my father--"

Zhao Ying came forward with a smile, squatted down, pressed the armrest, and gently helped the First Emperor rock the rocking chair.

"Father, when you are tired from working in the future, you can lie down here and rest for a while. It is more comfortable than sitting on that small chair..."

A warm current flowed through the heart of the First Emperor, and he nodded with a smile.

After lying down for a while to test the feeling, he stood up with a smile and looked at the old general Wang Jian who was looking at the recliner curiously.

"Old General, you might as well come over and try out this rocking chair that my grandson helped me build, and see if it has any merit..."

Wang Jian: ...

Your Majesty, if you want to show off, just say so. You can hardly hold back the proud expression on your face, okay?

However, he was really a little jealous of this recliner. Just watching the First Emperor wandering there, he already felt that this thing was a good thing.

"Okay, I'll give it a try..."

Wang Jian walked over and lay down slowly while holding on to the armrest. He imitated the behavior of the First Emperor just now and swayed tentatively for a few times. He immediately found the fun in it and started shaking up and down.

What should I do if I feel comfortable and want to close my eyes and rest my mind, but I don’t want to come down?

"Good stuff, really good stuff. The young master's filial piety is really enviable -"

The old general Wang Jian reluctantly stood up from the recliner, looked at the shiny rocking chair on the ground, and couldn't help but sigh sincerely.

The First Emperor waved his hand.

"The old general is overrated, but this brat is not good at anything else, and his filial piety is only so-so..."

Wang Jian: ...

Your Majesty, we can't talk today!

The disgusted expression on Wang Jian's face was almost revealed, making the First Emperor burst into laughter.

"Don't be envious, old general. I estimate that this brat has probably prepared one for you..."

"My eldest father is wise and has indeed prepared a copy for the old general. I am planning to take the time to send it to him later——"

Zhao Ying took great pleasure in complimenting the First Emperor's stinky feet.

The First Emperor looked at Wang Jian with a smile upon hearing this.

Did you see, this is my grandson, filial and sensible!

Wang Jian was also happy this time, and smiled and thanked Zhao Ying.

"Thank you very much, young master. I will be disrespectful to you—"

For a time, because of the rocking chair, the atmosphere in the hall became cheerful. While the three of them were talking, Zhao Gao came in with several chamberlains holding a pile of memorials.

"I have met His Majesty, Young Master, and General Wang——"

Zhao Gao bowed respectfully one by one, and then directed several servants to put the memorials in their hands on the tables aside.

"Your Majesty, according to the itinerary, General Meng Tian has completed the handover with General Wang Ben and will leave from Shangjun today. It is expected that he will return to Xianyang on time around noon tomorrow -"

According to historical records, the Qin Dynasty's marching speed was astonishing. It only took half a day to cover more than 200 miles on the road, and it could easily cover four to five hundred miles in a day.

If you hurry up and travel day and night, you can drive nearly a thousand miles in one day and one night.

This speed is beyond the reach of even those arrogant dynasties in later generations.

It is about a thousand miles from Shangjun to Xianyang. Zhao Gao said that according to the itinerary, he would be able to reach Xianyang from Shangjun around noon tomorrow, which was not an exaggeration.

After all, the New Year is approaching, and Meng Tian has a military order, so it is naturally impossible for him to spend more time on the road.

The First Emperor nodded slightly.

It is a big event to take turns garrisoning various places. The arrangements must be completed around the New Year. Of course, the most important one is the change of defense between Shangjun and Lingnan. Now Wang Ben has stationed in Shangjun. After the New Year, Meng Tian will replace Ren Xiao and garrison in Lingnan. This Only after this action has the curtain finally come to an end.

"News came from various places. After the promulgation of the grace order, there was some commotion among the nobles everywhere, but there was no big movement. On the contrary, I heard that some families had some troubles and jokes within them - the county guards, county lieutenants and censors in various places also Preparations have been made in advance for contingency, and special officials have been set up in various counties and counties to deal with the internal disputes of these families and ensure that the order of grace can be implemented smoothly..."

The First Emperor subconsciously glanced at Zhao Ying, who was standing aside as if nothing had happened. He couldn't help but smile, and nodded with satisfaction.

"good--"

Zhao Gao then reported in detail several decrees that the First Emperor was concerned about.

When the old general Wang Jian saw this, he wanted to get up and say goodbye, but was stopped by a look from the First Emperor. After finishing the government affairs, the First Emperor smiled and said to Wang Jian.

"Old general, why are you in such a hurry to go back? You might as well stay here today and have a few drinks with me -"

Having said this, he glanced at Zhao Ying happily.

"You can also try to see if my grandson's cooking skills have improved..."

Wang Jian: ...

Although he was speechless at the First Emperor's crazy behavior of showing off his grandson, he still happily complied.

By the way, young master Ying’s craftsmanship is really good. If you have the opportunity to make a living, why not do it?

……

Hu Hai came at the right time.

It was all calculated. At this time, I would go to the palace to pay my respects to Aweng. It would be just in time to have lunch, so I could take the opportunity to stay and have dinner with Aweng.

This is all grace.

He had even thought about the topics to communicate with when he was with the First Emperor, and how to please his own prince. As the favorite youngest son of the First Emperor, he was very confident in this.

But when he rushed to Ganquan Palace in excitement, he was shocked to find that his old father was lying on a strange thing with his eyes slightly closed, rocking up and down leisurely and speaking in a relaxed tone. Chatting with old general Wang Jian.

This is not important. What is important is that that bitch Zhao Ying is kneeling next to the First Emperor, skillfully massaging the temples of his own grandson, and his own grandson obviously enjoys this kind of treatment.

Hu Hai: ...

He suddenly understood why his master, Zhao Gao, reminded him again and again that he had to take time to go to the palace more often.

Feelings: While I was busy taking care of the charcoal field and stocking up on supplies for the winter, Zhao Ying, that bitch, was changing his tricks every day to please his boss!

He had the feeling that he was charging ahead, but when he turned around, his home was stolen by his teammates.

"My son, I'd like to say hello to Aweng. I've seen General Wang——"

Hu Hai forced a smile and stepped forward to greet the First Emperor and Wang Jian.

The First Emperor did not stand up, but waved his hand casually.

"Find a place to sit aside -"

Wang Jian quickly stood up and returned the greeting.

Zhao Ying did not get up. While massaging the temples of the First Emperor, he raised his head and greeted Hu Hai with a smile.

"Uncle Eighteen, long time no see. I was just going to take some time to say hello to you, but you came unexpectedly. Our uncle and nephew really have a good understanding of each other——"

Hu Hai: ...

He didn't want to pay attention to this opportunistic dog who changed his tricks every day to please his own boss.

But he could only force out a smile and nodded to Zhao Ying with approval.

"Winter is approaching. During this period of time, I have been worrying day and night about the winter protection in Guizhou. I am so busy that I have not been able to pay my respects to your eldest father. I was originally worried and uneasy. Fortunately, I am fine and you can help me. Uncle Wei is very pleased to have Aweng waiting by his side..."

Zhao Ying couldn't help but glance at Hu Hai.

No wonder this bitch was able to please the First Emperor in his previous life. He took him with him even when he was on tour. This little mouth really knew how to talk.

Sure enough, after hearing Hu Hai's words, the First Emperor smiled a little more. He sat upright with his hand on the armrest and looked at his little son with relief.

"Since you're here today, let's stay and have dinner together. Ying'er just happened to be stewing a pot of venison in the kitchen..."

Hu Hai smiled and thanked him, walked to the side and found a place to sit down.

Sure enough, the eldest father still likes a son who can share his worries.

Hu Hai immediately stopped panicking and glanced at Zhao Ying with some pride. So what if he hangs out in front of Aweng every day? He is not the same as before, he can be favored but not valued.

"It should be alright, I'll go to the kitchen and have a look -"

With that said, Zhao Ying got up directly and went to the kitchen.

The rocking chair is so comfortable.

It made people relax from the inside out, and the First Emperor was a little addicted. When he saw Zhao Ying getting up and going to the kitchen, and lying down on the ground again, Hu Hai's eyes suddenly lit up.

Isn’t the opportunity coming now——

Very obediently, he knelt down in front of the First Emperor and stretched out his hand to massage the Emperor's temples.

As a result, as soon as the person came over and squeezed him twice, he was stopped by the First Emperor with a wave of his hand.

"Forget it, you'd better rest-"

Hu Hai: ...

Zhao Gao glanced at him with some sympathy, and for a moment felt sympathy for him.

When Zhao Ying and several maids came over with steaming meals, the First Emperor suddenly became energetic and waved, and two servants brought a round table to the side.

It was the dining table that was moved from Zhao Ying's place last time.

"Come on, everyone gather around and eat together..."

Wang Jian and Hu Hai looked at each other.

But he still came over very wisely, first confessed to the First Emperor, and then sat down opposite the First Emperor with half his buttocks.

"Come, come and try my craftsmanship——"

Zhao Ying casually pulled up a chair, sat down next to the First Emperor, and greeted everyone warmly.

"I added some wolfberry to this venison. Not only is it delicious, but it is also the best way to nourish the liver and kidneys——"

Having said this, Zhao Ying greeted with a smile.

"Everyone might as well eat more -"

After saying that, he also very diligently gave Hu Hai a large chopstick.

"Uncle Eighteen, I heard that you have recently married me some beautiful aunts. Your eyes are almost black. Do you often feel sore in your back and legs? Eat more and take supplements later. …”

Hu Hai: ...

He straightened his back vigorously.

"Stop talking nonsense and making fun of Uncle..."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ying smiled and enthusiastically gave him another chopstick of venison, and even gave him a large spoonful of venison soup with wolfberry floating in it.

Hu Hai: ...

He suddenly realized that his nephew was really in debt.

But is it wrong for a nephew to care about his uncle?

How can I, as an uncle, not know what is good and what is bad?

Seeing that Hu Hai was hungry and miserable at Zhao Ying's place, the old general Wang Jian couldn't help but flash a faint smile in the corner of his eyes, and then he saw Zhao Ying pick up a large piece of venison with chopsticks and put it on his plate.

"Old General, you are getting older, so you should eat more..."

Wang Jian couldn't help but his expression froze, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

The First Emperor looked at his eldest grandson speechlessly. This bitch must have done it on purpose. Last time he came here, he made sure his son was obedient. This time, it was the same again.

Glancing at his aggrieved younger son, the First Emperor couldn't help but sigh.

Although I know I can do some serious work, my ability to adapt is really frustrating.

Ugh--

Forget it, Ying'er is still here anyway.

After thinking about this, the First Emperor's face became much kinder, and he even personally gave Hu Hai a piece of venison: ...

"You really need to pay attention to your health. Although it is impossible for all of my descendants to be as strong as Ying'er, they should be physically stronger..."

Hu Hai: ...

I seemed to feel my father's love, but I didn't seem to feel it completely.

He could only nod his head obediently.

"Aweng's lesson is that after the children are finished working for a while, so that the Guizhou capital near Xianyang can have a warm winter, I will take time to exercise..."

The First Emperor nodded.

However, I have already been thinking a lot about what Hu Hai mentioned repeatedly.

I want to know what my youngest son has done recently, and he dares to say that the capital of Guizhou near Xianyang will have a warm winter.

This was the first time for Wang Jian to eat like this.

Several people sat around a table, chatting while eating, and the atmosphere was unexpectedly lively. Looking at the tables, chairs and benches, I couldn't help but have some thoughts in my heart.

The older you get, the more you fear loneliness.

Who doesn’t want to see a house full of children and grandchildren gathered around and having a lot of fun?

I didn't think it was a big deal when they ate separately before, but now, seeing the First Emperor and his sons and grandsons enjoying themselves together, I couldn't help but feel a little envious.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with eating like this?

"Old General, you might as well have a few more drinks..."

The First Emperor smiled and raised his wine glass, but as soon as he finished speaking, the wine glass disappeared...

Looking back, his eldest grandson was looking at him with a straight face.

"Father, drinking too much is harmful to your health - stop drinking..."

The First Emperor looked at Zhao Ying helplessly and raised his finger.

"One more drink..."

"no--"

Zhao Ying ignored the pitiful look in Emperor Shi Huang's eyes and simply put away his wine glass.

Is this the wine your old man is drinking?

This is my destiny and that of our Great Qin royal family!

This scene made the old generals Wang Jian and Hu Hai dumbfounded. There were still people who dared to take care of the First Emperor! What surprised them the most was that the First Emperor actually refused to drink!

"This bitch doesn't know how to adapt at all. You must not come to the New Year's banquet tomorrow—"

Listening to the angry words of the First Emperor like a child, Hu Hai felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart for the first time. When did this bitch Zhao Ying become so close to Aweng!

The old general Wang Jian, as if he didn't notice anything, happily picked up the wine glass in front of him, drank it down in one gulp, stroked his beard, and joked with a smile.

"Your Majesty's wine is indeed delicious - it's a pity that you can only watch my old minister drink it alone..."

The First Emperor blew his beard and glared at Zhao Ying in a serious manner.

However, Zhao Ying didn't care about that, rolled up his sleeves, and started eating Haisai like crazy.

At this time, Hu Hai realized why so much venison was brought over when four people were eating. Emotions are still a waste!

Although the food was delicious and the wine was of the best quality, after the meal, Hu Hai felt a little distracted when he left.

It was obvious that Zhao Ying's love for that bitch in Aweng's heart was far higher than his own!

In just a short time, I let this bitch take advantage of it—

He looked back with some resentment at Zhao Gao, the commander of the CRRC who was escorting him out of the palace gate.

Zhao Gao remained silent.

However, he secretly made up his mind.

As the descendant of the late Han Xiangguo said, everyone can fail, except you!

If others fail, you can still wait for an opportunity to come back. If you fail, you will definitely die.

After sending Hu Hai away, he looked at Shangjun coldly, with a trace of determination flashing in his eyes.

……

On the first New Year after time travel, he came to Zhao Ying quietly.

There were no lanterns and colorful decorations, and no firecrackers going off, but he did witness a grand ancient sacrifice and a lively Nuo opera with gongs and drums.

He was like a puppet, following the First Emperor, worshiping again and again. During the whole process, he was like a spectator, always feeling a little alienated.

It’s New Year’s Day.

The most important thing is that this is the 36th year of the First Emperor!

This year, Da Qin will embark on a crucial year, and there will be less time left for itself.

He lives here absent-mindedly.

Little did he know that what happened today was like an earthquake to the entire upper echelon of Great Qin. Because everyone was shocked to find that when the First Emperor brought his ministers to offer sacrifices this year, a childish face suddenly appeared behind him.

Young Master Zhao Ying!

I knew that His Majesty was doting on the young master Zhao Ying very much recently, but I didn't expect that he would dote on him to this extent.

You know, this kind of occasion is unusual, and every position is special. In the past, when the eldest son was here, the position next to the First Emperor was held by the eldest son Fusu. Now that the eldest son has lost the emperor's heart and left for Shangjun, this position has become vacant.

Therefore, before today's sacrifice, everyone was staring at this position silently.

The First Emperor was getting older and his health was not as good as before. In a sense, whoever could appear in this position would most likely be the most powerful candidate for the crown prince in the future.

Although everyone did not dare to discuss the matter of establishing a prince, it did not mean that everyone did not care. Everyone was staring at the First Emperor and that position.

I wonder who will appear in this position.

Hu Hai has been looking forward to it for a long time.

His eldest brother Fusu was not around, so he, the son whom Aweng favored the most, naturally did his part, but he never expected that the emperor's eldest grandson would show up on the way——

What does it mean?

Not only Hu Hai, everyone is thinking about this issue in their minds. After all, that was not the eldest son Fusu, but the eldest son of the eldest son and the eldest grandson of the emperor. Only the old general Meng Wu was inexplicably excited, feeling that the return of the eldest son was probably not far away.

The veteran general Wang Jian seemed to have expected this situation for a long time, his expression was as usual, not surprised or disturbed.

He just turned around and whispered to his grandson Wang Li, and then followed the team forward with a normal expression. Wang Lileng stayed on the spot, blinking his eyes in confusion, then quietly withdrew from the team and ran towards his home.
