For nine days in a row, Chen Ke didn't leave the house.

I get up at around 11 o'clock every morning, have lunch, and lie in the room burning coals to read a storybook.

Then take a nap for a while.

I get up around three or four in the afternoon, take a walk, and have a meal.

Then read a book for a while, sort out the books, read some miscellaneous notes, and then go to bed.

The next day, repeat this process.

On the ninth day, Chen Ke knew that he could no longer go on like this.

Because the holiday ends tomorrow.

In short, it's time to get to work.

On the evening of the ninth day, Chen Ke stepped out of the room for the first time and sighed slightly as he looked at the frozen lake outside.

"Hey, why are the days at work always so long and the holidays always so short?"

Can’t people only work for half a month every year?

He shook his head and returned to the house.

At the same time, at Li Si’s home.

Li Si stretched his waist with a smile on his face.

"The holiday is finally over."

"Why can't people work all year long? Why do holidays have to be so long?"

Li Si shook his head, with a look of hatred on his face.

"These past few days, my bones really hurt!"

Li Yang and Li You, who were standing behind him, looked at each other.

Are your bones aching?

Li Yang whispered: "Father has finished handling the remaining matters in Kuaiji County in the past few days, and has dealt with the rewards of the Mo family in the Doctor's Palace."

"Kong Xian's note has been approved."

"The money declared by the Manufacturing Administration has been made."

"The matters concerning Captain Ting have also been reviewed and reviewed one by one."

Li Youye went on to say: "In addition, I also compiled the work that will be needed after the new year into a volume, and wrote a new edition of Jurisprudence."

"Revised one-third of Qin's laws."

"I have sorted out how to distribute books, and also listed things to be proposed about the Publishing Department in the next few days."

"Father is worried about a bone called Xian?"

The two looked at each other in confusion, looking at Li Si who was standing not far away, stretching and looking dissatisfied.

"Is this what you call Xian Gu's panic?"

If this was called idleness, the two of them might have just been lying in bed without moving for the past nine days.

General's Mansion

Wang Jian yawned and had to get up before dawn to go to court. It was really torture.

Although I rested for nine days, why do I feel more tired the more I rest?

He sighed.

"Oh, it would be nice if I could have more vacation time."

.........

Situations like this seem to have occurred all over the Qin Dynasty.

After people rested, they felt a little tired.

But at this time, people did not rest and worked hard to work.

But I didn't expect that as I kept working, I felt energetic.

........

Yichun Palace

Fusu looked at Hu Hai, who was half lying on the ground with a decadent look on his face, with a look of helplessness on his face.

"Brother Hai, have you finished your homework?"

Hu Hai shook his head excitedly. He immediately turned over and sat up straight, looking at Fusu.

"Brother, I don't have to do the homework this time!"

He waved the note in his hand and said: "The teacher's gift to me is that I can be exempted from three classes!"

The corners of Fusu's eyes twitched, but he also felt that such a strange pressure was something his teacher would do.

He immediately held his forehead and sighed softly.

"But it's only three times. Do you really think you won't be useful anymore?"

"Do you have to use it up now?"

Hu Hai curled his lips: "Brother, you don't understand."

"It's called strategy."

"I'll give it a try first to see if this note works."

"If it works, I can find a time when I have a lot of homework next time and reduce the amount of homework for that time!"

Fusu looked at Hu Hai with some surprise: "Does the teacher still keep his words?"

Hu Hai shook his head: "Teacher must keep his word, but they adults will make excuses and reasons."

"Can you argue with me better than the teacher?"

Fusu thought of Chen Ke's nonsense, and immediately shook his head.

"It can't be pulled, it can't be pulled."

Hu Hai chuckled: "That's right, brother, you can't even compete with the teacher, how can I possibly compete with you?"

"So I have to give it a try first!"

Fusu looked at Hu Hai's smiling face and was speechless. He always felt that Hu Hai's test this time would not go smoothly...

do not know why.

It's just an inexplicable premonition.

Zhangtai Palace, main hall

The ministers stood there sparsely, with few looking energetic.

Chen Ke used his wide sleeves to hide his yawn. He looked at the very excited Li Si standing not far away with a look of confusion on his face.

"Old General Wang, why do some people like to deal with government affairs and work so much?"

He doesn't understand.

Wang Jian also didn't understand.

"Maybe this is what you said before, Mr. Chen, what is it called Juan?"

Chen Ke responded with an affirmative look: "King Juan."

"Oh, I would rather exhaust myself to death than drag others to death."

He muttered in a low voice: "I didn't expect that I would still be unable to escape King Juan in Da Qin."

At this time, on the stage.

Ying Zheng also looked tired.

On the first day after the holiday, he didn't want to deal with any government affairs.

Get used to it.

At this time, Li Si stood up with a stern expression.

"Your Majesty, I have my own instructions."

Looking at the energetic Li Si, Ying Zheng was also full of doubts, but he still smiled and said, "What's the matter?"

He is different from Chen Ke and others.

He likes ministers like this. Only with more ministers like this can Da Qin develop better.

certainly--

Ying Zheng also felt that ministers did not need holidays.

He just felt that the people needed it, and Chen Ke said it again. Since he said it, he reluctantly agreed.

Li Si's voice was calm, sonorous and powerful, not at all frivolous like other ministers.

"Your Majesty, the holidays have passed and the New Year has arrived."

"In the twenty-seventh year of King Qin's reign, many things were left behind and need to be dealt with as soon as possible."

"I have already written a memorial on the affairs of General Ji County and other places, please submit it to Your Majesty."

As he spoke, he took something out of his sleeve and handed it over.

Han Tan took the memorial from Li Si and handed it to Ying Zheng respectfully.

While Ying Zheng watched, Li Si continued.

"Secondly, although the rice seeds brought back by Dr. Xu Fu from South Vietnam can only be harvested three times a year if they are grown in the south, they also provide a guarantee for food in Daqin."

"I propose that the seeds be planted as soon as possible and then distributed."

"in addition."

When Li Si said this, he paused for a moment, then looked at Ying Zheng sitting there, and spoke word by word.

"Your Majesty, the crusade against Baiyue will be put on the agenda!"

The crusade against Baiyue!

As soon as these words came out, half of the generals in the court instantly became active!

Even Wang Jian sat up straight and looked at Ying Zheng in the distance.

"Ahem."

Ying Zheng coughed lightly.

"Do you have any opinions on this matter?"
