Midnight watch.
The moon was dark and the wind was so high that I couldn't see my fingers.
Zhou Bo tiptoed to the wellhead and pulled the rope hard. Cao Xiu stood nearby, watching quietly, and could still hear the deafening snoring.
Soon, the clay pot was pulled up.
Cao Xiu opened the jar and shook his head helplessly. The water inside is indeed very cold, even colder than well water, but it is far from enough to condense into ice, and it seems to have failed again. He wasn't discouraged. Even if future generations of scientists couldn't reproduce it perfectly in the laboratory, he didn't have much hope.
"Lao Zhou, get some ice cubes the day after tomorrow and put them in the jar."
"clear."
Zhou Bo nodded.
"Humph, I knew you had a problem!"
Qin Shihuang strode out with his hands behind his back. Looking around, he didn't see Fusu, and he felt extremely disappointed. Fusu still believed in others too easily. Cao Xiu opened his mouth and said a few words, and he believed them all. And now I sleep like a pig, which is simply embarrassing!
Wang Jian yawned beside him, quite helpless.
He really thought that Cao Xiu had the means to make ice in the summer.
Now it seems that he was just trying to fool Hu Hai. This kid was telling the truth, and if the emperor hadn't kept an eye on it, he might not have been deceived by him.
Cao Xiu waved his hand and signaled Zhou Bo to work.
"What's the problem?"
"You can't make ice at all with this method!"
"Actually, it can be made. There is no problem with the theory, but the technology is not up to standard yet. And if it weren't for you, why would I do this?"
"It's not my business?"
Cao Xiu spread his hands and said matter-of-factly: "Li Hai is a distant relative of Li Si, and he is obviously an informant here. If I reveal my true skills, wouldn't I let him learn from me? Will you blame me again?" "
"Ahem!"
Qin Shihuang was suddenly speechless.
They co-wrote it until the end, and blame them?
"Don't worry, we are not so short-sighted." Wang Jian was serious and said slowly: "Xiu'er, you have to seize this opportunity. Even if we hate Li Si, he is still the prime minister today. If you want to go Climbing up will be easier with his help. What does this count for the grand scheme of things?"
"You have a very high level of ideological awareness!"
"Hehe...hehe..."
"As expected of a strong warrior, a hardcore rebel."
"..."
Wang Jian wanted to tear Cao Xiu's mouth to pieces.
If you want me to die, just say so!
Fortunately, Qin Shihuang didn't care. He waved his hand and looked at Cao Xiu, and continued: "Xiu'er, you have to seize the opportunity. You have to remember that it is difficult to achieve great things in Peixian County. You have to continue to climb up and strive to reach the top. The internal historian is a court official. If he can influence the Qin government or steal information, it will be of great help to our uprising."
After saying this, Qin Shihuang suddenly felt helpless. After all, he is also the king of a country, but now he has to teach Cao Xiu to rebel...
However, he was telling the truth, and this was Zhao Xie's purpose. Xianyang City is the most strictly governed place, and various procedures are required to enter. Even if the rebels are brave enough, they will not dare to break in. Like the current rebels, most of them are actually concentrated in Qi and Chu.
If it were anyone else, maybe it wouldn't be possible. But with Cao Xiu's talent, he was really able to sneak into the Qin court. Fortunately, he was rejuvenated and had insight into their plan in advance. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a missed talent?
Cao Xiu sat by the well and said nothing. He still knew how many kilograms he had. If he wants to climb up, the best way is to make some small inventions and then offer the potatoes when they are ripe. He will definitely be able to sneak into the Qin court.
But if you do this, you really can’t hold it back...
He has been living in seclusion for many years, trying his best to avoid changing history because he is worried about the butterfly effect that will cause history to deviate. If this is the case, then his prophetic advantage as a time traveler is completely gone.
Moreover, what should Qin do if he really wants to live in peace?
"Xiu'er? Don't let your imagination run wild!"
"Go, go, go, you can't think about it."
Cao Xiu stood up from the mouth of the well.
This kid almost pushed him into the well.
"It's not that I'm hiding anything. These are all technologies. Do you understand technology?"
"I don't understand the technology you're talking about, but I understand you. The reason why you hide your secrets is simply because you don't have enough profits. In this way, as long as you can climb up, I will ask Father Ji to send you some money to compensate for your losses."
"Damn, you know technology!"
"..."
Cao Xiu was completely relieved now. Originally, he had some scruples and unwillingness. After all, who doesn't dream of being an emperor?
But since these people don't care, then why does he care?
He tried his best to climb up step by step. As for where the Qin Dynasty's carriage drove to, he had no control over it. At worst, he would just be a powerful minister. By using his identity as a rebel and killing everyone who knows his true identity, he can successfully clear his name.
…
…
The next day, it was still dark.
Fusu opened his eyes drowsily.
He vaguely heard some rustling sounds.
"you're awake?"
Fusu's pupils instantly shook.
Then he quickly jumped up from the bed.
"Wu...Wu Chenghou?"
"Ahem..."
Wang Jian winked seriously.
Only then did Fusu notice Qin Shihuang sitting next to him. He looked expressionless and untroubled, but he was still so frightened that he quickly stood up and bowed.
"I have met my father."
"Did you sleep well?"
"Well, it smells pretty good."
Fusu didn't think there was anything wrong. It's really because I haven't slept well during this period, and I have been running around on the road trying to find the emperor. I finally relaxed my mind last night and naturally slept quite well.
"I haven't slept all night." Qin Shihuang raised his eyebrows and continued: "Do you believe Cao Xiu's method of making ice in summer?"
"I thought it was impossible."
boom!
Qin Shihuang slapped the table next to him hard.
"Since you don't believe it, why did you fall asleep like this?" Qin Shihuang hated iron and said angrily: "I want you to watch Cao Xiu steal the army, and then persuade him to submit to Qin. You know that what he said is false, but Don’t go and verify it.”
"I...I know my mistake!"
Fusu was also very aggrieved. He had only been here for a day, what could he do? However, in the face of the emperor's scolding, he still chose to remain silent. After all, he did not do what he wanted.
Qin Shihuang breathed a long sigh of relief and stood up.
"Do you think that I can rejuvenate and rejuvenate and have a life span of thirty years? So no matter how hard you try, you will not be able to succeed to the throne as the second generation in this life. It is better to do nothing?"
"I don't dare to die!"
Fusu panicked and bowed quickly. The conscience of heaven and earth, he has never even thought about this matter. But after hearing what the emperor said, he came back to his senses instantly.
That's right...how could he forget this?
I'm afraid if he hadn't died, the emperor would be alive and well.
As for Qin II?
There is no chance for him, but his son may still have a chance.
"snort!"
Qin Shihuang stood up.
Then, Wang Jian moved the bamboo slips in.
"These are well reviewed, I want to see them."
"I... I'm afraid I won't be able to finish my review."
"Then don't go back to Xianyang."
Qin Shihuang walked out of the room lightly.
After scolding Fusu, he instantly felt refreshed.
I feel refreshed and my legs no longer hurt.
Comfortable! ! !
