Speaking of Li Shiyun alone, I saw her at the palace banquet in the second year of her life. She was very beautiful. If she didn't have Tao Yao and was not mixed with political interests, she would just marry her. But once you are involved in so many interest disputes...
What's more, there is Taoyao. As a modern person who has traveled through time, the idea of having three thousand beauties in the harem is not unavailable. But if it is really put in front of me to choose, I still hope to live up to Taoyao.
I was thinking about Ying Wu's words all the way back, until the car drove into the palace gate.
When I walked to Xianyang Palace and looked at the majestic palace, I suddenly smiled.
"Why bother? As a modern person and the emperor of Qin, how can I be burdened by these things? Am I going to be assimilated by these ancients? No! I am an emperor different from the 40 million people of Qin! Aren't I just a Li Si? Use whatever you want, if you have any objections, just kill him!"
I turned around and looked at the Qinling Mountains lying in the middle of the country. I felt so proud and lucky that I shouted: "I am the second emperor of the Qin Dynasty!"
The voice echoed in the corridor in front of the palace, attracting the imperial guards and palace maids to look sideways: You guys know that you are the second emperor of the Qin Dynasty, why are you yelling so loudly...
On the way back to the Sihai Palace, I quietly said to Meng He: "Go and find out Hu Hai's life experience! It's mainly about the circumstances before and after Concubine Li gave birth to Hu Hai."
After Hu Hai came to the throne, he almost wiped out the Ying family. Not to mention that there were many mediocre and weak kings in the history of the Qin Dynasty. Throughout the two thousand years of history, the new emperor killed many brothers and sisters, but how could there be such an animal that almost wiped out his own family? This kid can't be coming from a bad way...
After the court meeting the next day, I asked Qiwan to send someone to inform me, and then I got up and went to Concubine Han's Palace.
When they arrived at Concubine Han's Palace, Concubine Han, Ying Tao, and Ying Fu were already waiting at the palace gate.
"I have met His Majesty."
I smiled and said, "No need to be polite."
The four of them entered the room and sat down. I first asked Concubine Han: "How is Concubine Han?"
Concubine Han cupped her hands and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Everything is fine."
I nodded, looked at Ying Tao and said, "Sister, I'm here for you today."
Ying Tao was stunned, glanced at Concubine Han, and said uneasily: "Your Majesty, you can give your orders, and Ying Tao must obey them."
I knew she was worried about Hu Hai, so I comforted her: "Don't be nervous, I just want to talk to you about marriage."
Hearing this, Ying Tao breathed a sigh of relief. She knew it after Zong Zheng drew up the list. Now that she was in her twenties, she should have gotten married long ago.
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"Have you seen Zongzheng's roster? There are many young talents among them. I wonder what you think of Li Si's son, Li Jie?"
Ying Tao Bingxue was smart and immediately understood what I meant. She cupped her hands and said, "But it's your Majesty's decision."
I glanced at Concubine Han. There wasn't much change in their expressions. Li Si was the right prime minister, which was a good choice for Ying Tao.
"Marriage is a life-long matter for the eldest sister. I can't make the decision for you. The selection of a husband will be held at Pingzhangtai in two days. At that time, I will let Li Jie enter the palace in advance so that you two can meet. If you like each other, you will naturally be happy. If you don't like it, Just follow the others and choose again.”
Ying Tao was a little moved, and quickly stood up and cupped her hands: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
I smiled knowingly, stood up and said, "I hope eldest sister can have a good home, it all depends on eldest sister's wishes. I will send someone to inform you after the arrangements are made."
Concubine Han stood up and the two of them bowed: "Best farewell to Your Majesty."
After I left, Ying Tao glanced at Concubine Han and was a little undecided: "Mother, what do you think?"
Concubine Han nodded and looked at Ying Tao fondly: "Li Sinai is the prime minister on the right, and Li Jie is the guard. I have seen him before, and he looks quite upright. You will not suffer any loss if you marry him. I think your majesty is interested in You are sincere and don't seem to be lying. If you are wronged in the future, Your Majesty will make the decision for you."
Ying Tao nodded: "It's just that I can't stay with my mother from now on."
Concubine Han had a gentle temper, smiled casually, and glanced at Ying Fu: "With Fu'er by my side, in the future Fu'er will get married when she grows up, and my mother will have no regrets."
The two of them whispered for a long time, and I went back to Sihai Palace to process the report.
Two days later, the selection of husbands in Pingzhangtai came to an end. Ying Tao and Li Jie fell in love with each other. There were twelve other eldest princesses of the right age who had chosen husbands. There were five others who were about Ying Fu's age and could only continue to live in the palace.
Xianyang Hall, court meeting.
"Li Si, the husbands of the twelve eldest princesses have been selected. Princess Shang will be handled by you and Baichong, and Zongzheng will preside over the marriage." I ordered.
Li Si came out, a little embarrassed: "Your Majesty, the land in the city is limited now, and there are twelve eldest princess mansions suddenly added. I'm afraid there is no suitable land to build a new one."
I rubbed my forehead. What Li Si said was that there was not enough space, which was indeed true, but I guess he didn’t say how much money it would cost. People who marry these eldest princesses cannot be allowed to pay for the mansion...
However, such small things naturally cannot trouble me: "You can just discuss these small things with the Xianyang Order. In short, they must be built in accordance with the regulations of the Princess Mansion."
Li Si was stunned: Your Majesty, are you really okay with this?
Ying Jiang even said in her heart, "Good guy, last time I planned to open a new workshop, I cut off the land and gave it to Gongshu to Kaijiang Zuofu. How can there be any land left!" But to say that there is no land is to tell lies. There is a lot of farmland in the city, but don't think that you are the Xianyang Order. If you offend those people, life will be difficult...
Ying Jiang carefully said: "Your Majesty, this... the land in Xianyang is really not enough..."
I almost couldn't help but spit out the fragrance, Li Si's non-stick pan, you Ying Jiang are also playing tricks on me, you don't even care about your niece, right? Okay, okay, don't blame me for being rude!
"Xianyang Order, Xianyang City covers an area of more than 60,000 acres, and there are more than 30,000 acres within the city walls. How many fields are there in these 30,000 acres?" I narrowed my eyes and stared at Ying Jiang. asked slowly.
Ying Jiang's heart tightened. It seemed that she couldn't escape today, so she made it clear: "Your Majesty, the land is about 700 acres."
I sneered in my heart and continued: "Whose fields are these?"
"There are...two prime ministers, a royal censor, a general who will serve as the Shaofu, a water chief in the capital, and a governor of the internal history of millet..., among them..."
Some people in the court began to sweat. Those who received rewards and purchases in a serious way were naturally not afraid, but those who came through crooked ways were probably beating their drums in their hearts.
Ying Jiang almost counted the dozen or so people at the top of the pyramid.
Seeing that he was about to tell who occupied how much land, I interrupted in time and praised with a smile: "Xianyang Ling has a good memory!"
Ying Jiang originally wanted to tell this matter clearly once and for all, but I interrupted him, but he did not dare to say more: "This is my duty, thank you, Your Majesty!"
As soon as Ying Jiang finished speaking, Ge Yue immediately stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the fields in my mansion are managed by my servants, and I have never paid any attention to them. If I knew that I have land in the city, and the land in Xianyang is so tight, I have long requested your majesty to return the fields to the imperial court. Now that the eldest princess’s palace needs land, I should dedicate the fields to the imperial court to do my best!”
