In the study, the lights are brightly lit.
Zhao Hao was lying on the ground, with a lot of delicious food and mellow fruit wine beside him.
Opposite him, Cao Shen, Lu Wan, Meng Meng, and Wu Ya were sitting on the ground casually, talking and laughing.
"Sir, I never imagined that your life would be so comfortable."
Lu Wan took a sip of the fruit wine and sighed happily.
He had never eaten such delicious food and drank such mellow fruit wine in his life, and he couldn't help but feel a little happy.
Zhao Hao looked up at Lu Wan and said with a smile: "Some things, if you don't look at them, you always think they are fake, but if you look carefully, the fake becomes real!"
"this"
Lu Wan hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Cao Shen.
But Cao Shen smiled and said, "Young Master is a great talent, but we have not seen enough."
"Mr. Cao, why do you need to laugh at yourself? Come on, have a drink!"
"Dry!"
The two of them raised their glasses in the air and drank it all in one gulp.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Hao put down his wine glass, looked at Cao Shen again, and said, "Mr. Cao, do you think Han Xin can recover Mr. Xiao this time?"
"It's hard to say, but it's not impossible. The young master's four words hit the target of Xiao Li's ambition. I think they can convince him to defect to the young master!"
"Well, it would be a great thing if he could defect to me. If he doesn't want to, I won't force him. After all, everyone has his own ambitions!"
"What the young master said is true!"
Cao Shen smiled and nodded.
Although he also wanted Xiao He to defect to Zhao Hao, he didn't want Zhao Hao to force him.
At this time, Lu Wan heard from the side: "Since the young master wants Xiao Liju to join you, why don't you ask Liu Ji? With Liu Ji here, I don't think Xiao Liju will refuse the young master!"
"It's not like the Master didn't send someone to look for him."
Before Zhao Hao could speak, Wu Ya on the side took the lead and took over the conversation: "Since I learned that you came to join the Young Master, the Young Master asked me to look for them, but I couldn't find them."
"this"
When Lu Wan and Cao Shen heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other and sighed secretly.
They regretted it very much now. If they had known that Zhao Hao treated them so favorably, they should not have been so troublesome and just came to Zhao Hao directly.
Alas, it is time and destiny.
"Okay, Han Xin hasn't come back yet, let's not worry about eating and talk about business!"
Zhao Hao suddenly got up from the ground, clapped his hands, took out a roll of drawings from behind, and said to Mond: "Mond, go move a small table and put it in the middle!"
"okay!"
Mond, who was eating roasted pig's trotters, reacted for a moment, quickly threw down the pig's trotters, and went to bring a square table over.
Soon, Zhao Hao came to the table, spread out the drawings and said, "This is my latest design drawing. Take a look."
"I didn't expect that the young master actually knows the skills of craftsmen! This picture is so beautiful."
Cao Shen looked at the drawings and couldn't help but sigh.
Zhao Hao smiled and said: "Mr. Cao, thank you. This is the Imperial Institute of Technology that I designed. If you join me, I will naturally find something for you to do."
"Imperial College?"
Cao Shen asked doubtfully: "Is it a school palace?"
"To say it is a school is not comprehensive, but it is indeed related to learning. Imperial College is our talent training base in Daqin, and a steady stream of talents will be born here!"
Zhao Hao explained with a smile:
"For example, the Mohist and Gongshu family's organ skills, such as farmers' planting science, such as Taoist material science, chemistry (that is, alchemy alchemy), etc.;
All kinds of talents from various schools of thought will be recruited into Imperial College for teaching and research! "
"this"
Cao Shen and Lu Wan were stunned when they heard Zhao Hao's words. They didn't seem to expect that Zhao Hao's ambition was so big.
He actually wants to recruit talents from all over the world to serve Da Qin.
"Actually, as the Qin Dynasty unifies the world, talents like you will be put to use, but we can't just look at the present and not consider the future!"
Zhao Hao said seriously: I hope that the future of Great Qin will be bright, so we must start cultivating talents and let the next generation of Great Qin, or even every generation, study for the rise of Great Qin. Only in this way will Great Qin have inexhaustible talents."
"."
Seeing Zhao Hao's impassioned look, Cao Shen and others began to be infected.
If we can really recruit talents from hundreds of schools of thought to join Imperial, we can really create an unprecedented prosperous era.
But the question is, will they really be recruited?
Cao Shen thought for a moment, but couldn't help but express his concerns: "Sir, before the unification of the six kingdoms, all the schools of thought were basically self-respecting. Will they willingly serve the Qin Dynasty?
Also, their standards for recruiting disciples are very strict, and their teaching is also very particular. Can they teach everyone with everything they have? "
"Hey, it's so small!"
Zhao Hao shook his head and sighed: "The situation is still too small, Mr. Cao."
After finishing speaking, he stared at Cao Shen with burning eyes: "I wonder if Mr. Cao has heard a sentence?"
"What words?"
"When a man is about to die, his words are good!"
"this"
Cao Shen was stunned and couldn't help but said: "Master, what do you mean?"
"The idea is to arrest them, beat them half to death first, and then ask them if they want to do it!" Mond on the side interjected nonchalantly.
"ah?"
Cao Shen and Lu Wan looked shocked and subconsciously looked at Zhao Hao.
However, Zhao Hao glanced at Mond with admiration, and then said with a smile: "In this assessment to become an official, many children from hundreds of families came to 'test the water'. It saves us having to catch them one by one. I hope Gongyang dares to do that. Let’s hold a few more rounds to attract more people to participate, and then we’ll catch them all!”
"Young Master"
Cao Shen and Lu Wan's eyelids twitched, with a vague feeling of bad premonition.
But I heard Mond say: "Sir, as far as I know, these children of hundreds of families who are 'testing the water' are not very knowledgeable."
"I know this. If you have any ideas, you might as well say so!"
Zhao Hao nodded and raised his hand to signal.
Mond thought for a moment, then suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and he said: "I think if we don't do this, tie them up first and let them send a letter back to ask for help from the teacher. Unless the teacher can't save them, then we can tie up their teacher again, isn't it? Isn’t it beautiful?”
I wipe it!
This is crazy!
Did we invest in the wrong place?
Is this a serious place? This is clearly a den of thieves!
If they were allowed to harm hundreds of schools of thought like this, Imperial College of Science and Technology would probably be the most talented place in the Qin Dynasty.
What others had accumulated over decades or hundreds of years, they completed in just a few days, and they exceeded their expectations.
what happened?
Why did Young Master Hao, who was so elegant and easy-going just now, suddenly become like this?
At this moment, Cao Shen and Lu Wan both regretted that they had defected to Zhao Hao.
However, Zhao Hao suddenly turned to look at them and said with a smile: "Mr. Cao, Lu Wan, now is the time when I am short of people. I am very happy that you come to help me. I wonder if you will accept my arrangement? "
"Ah? This"
Cao Shen and Cao Shen looked hesitant, not knowing how to answer Zhao Hao.
From a heart point of view, they definitely don't want to accept it, but from a practical point of view, they are now eating, drinking, and listening to these things that they shouldn't hear. They have already stepped into the pirate ship with one foot. It's almost impossible to escape.
"I wonder how Master plans to arrange for us?"
Cao Shen asked cautiously.
Zhao Hao smiled and said amiably: "Mr. Cao knows the law and has management talents. I intend to make Mr. Cao the vice president of Imperial College."
"associate dean?"
Cao Shen frowned: "Then who is the dean?"
"Of course it's my father!"
"this"
Cao Shen almost cried, thinking to himself, wasn't this letting him be used as a shield? This is so fucking stupid!
"What's wrong, Mr. Cao, don't you want to?"
Zhao Hao tilted his head and looked at Cao Shen, and said sincerely: "If you don't want to, just say it. You are the imperial talent I value most. We can discuss anything."
"No, sir, if you really value Cao, let Cao do his job instead of being the vice president."
After saying that, Cao Shen saluted Zhao Hao almost imploringly: "Cao must be very grateful."
"Why!"
Zhao Hao sighed noncommittally and said leisurely: "Mr. Cao, before you make a decision, let me tell you an interesting story. How about you think about it again?"
"ah?"
Cao Shen was confused and didn't know what kind of medicine Zhao Hao was selling in the gourd.
But Zhao Haosha said in a serious tone: "In the past, there was a person who always liked to go against me, saying that he couldn't do this and that he couldn't do that. Guess what happened to him in the end?"
"What's wrong?"
"Do you think it's interesting to become sisters with the maids in my father's palace?"
"this"
Cao Shen's heart skipped a beat and he immediately handed over his hand: "Sir, Cao suddenly feels that he has a sacred mission to cultivate talents for the Qin Dynasty. Cao is bound to do so!"
"Hahaha! Very good!"
Zhao Hao laughed heartily, and then looked at Lu Wan with a smile: "What about you."
"I"
Lu Wan swallowed subconsciously, and then held her hands solemnly: "Whatever the young master asks Lu to do, Lu will do it!"
"I think you can be both a decent and a villain with your appearance. How about you become a dean and manage disobedient students?"
"Lu is obligated!"
"good!"
Zhao Hao slapped the table and suddenly thought of something: "Oh, by the way, remember, you must convince others with virtue!"
"Yes, sir!"
Lu Wan handed over again.
Zhao Hao nodded with satisfaction, then waved his hand and said:
"Okay, let's stop here tonight. Go down and rest early. Come back to Xianyang with me tomorrow!"
"We'll leave!"
Watching Cao and Lu leave, Zhao Hao narrowed his eyes, turned to look at Wuya, and said calmly, "Senior brother really didn't find Liu Ji and the others?"
"No."
Wu Ya shook his head; "I have searched inside and outside Yong City, but there is no trace of them!"
"Will someone get caught?"
Zhao Hao asked coldly.
Wu Ya pondered for a while, then shook his head and said, "Probably not. I went to Ying Rong's mansion to check tonight, and there was no movement at all!"
"That's strange, how did they disappear?"
Zhao Hao touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
Mond suddenly said: "Could it be related to Tang Juzhi?"
"he?"
Zhao Hao and Wu Ya were startled at the same time and looked at Mond.
But I heard Mond say seriously: "Other than him, no one seems to have such an ability to make people disappear without anyone noticing!"
"hateful!"
Zhao Hao couldn't help but slap the table! "It's Tang Juzhi again! Damn it!"
"What should we do now?"
Wuya asked calmly.
Zhao Hao pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and said: "I have already postponed my return to Xianyang for one day. I can't push it anymore. I will ignore them for now and wait until I return to Xianyang!"
"good!"
Wuya nodded.
At this moment, an announcement suddenly came from outside the door: "Master Qi, Weiwei Han wants to see you!" "
"Um?"
Zhao Hao was stunned for a moment, then his brows lit up with joy, and he quickly said: "Let him in!"
Soon, Han Xin walked into the study with his shirtless body and a thorn stick on his back, looking remorseful.
When Zhao Hao and the other two saw this, they couldn't help but look at each other, looking at each other in confusion.
After a while, Zhao Hao reacted and said blankly: "Axin, what are you..."
"Sir, Han Xin has betrayed his trust and came here to plead guilty!"
Han Xin put on a posture of "please plead guilty and submit to the law", knelt down on one knee and held his hands towards Zhao Hao.
"hiss"
Zhao Hao looked at the thorns piercing Han Xin's back, couldn't help but take a breath, and blurted out: "What's wrong with you? How painful it is! Get it off quickly!"
After saying that, he had to help Han Xin remove the thorns.
But Han Xin seemed unwilling and kept retreating, avoiding Zhao Hao while blaming himself; "If Han Xin hadn't known people poorly and was not good at speaking, they would have defected to the young master long ago!"
"oh?"
Zhao Hao narrowed his eyes: "You mean, they are not willing to defect to me?"
"this"
Han Xin opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer, and raised his hand to Zhao Hao again: "Please punish me, Master!"
Zhao Hao couldn't help but raise his hand to his forehead at this moment, and said helplessly: "Mond, get the things off him quickly, it makes my scalp numb!"
"Yes, but young master."
"Stop it, it's their loss if they don't come, Master will not blame you!"
Mond said angrily, then took out a dagger and cut off all the thorns on Han Xin's back.
After Han Xin put on his clothes again, Zhao Hao asked him doubtfully: "Have you told them all the things I told you?"
Han Xin replied sincerely: "I have told them everything the young master said!"
"So how did they react?"
"Shocked! Extremely shocked! Admired! Totally admired! The young master is a great talent!"
"Well"
Zhao Hao's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but be full of curiosity: "They didn't say anything?"
"This, um."
Han Xin replied as if recalling: "Chen Ping seems to want to help Xiao He find Liu Ji and the others, but Xiao He was deeply touched by the young master's words, saying that the young master is the foundation of everything in the Qin Dynasty!"
"Oh? He really said that?"
"Yes, that's what he said!"
Zhao Hao: "Okay, I understand!"
"Them"
Han Xin opened his mouth but stopped talking.
Zhao Hao glanced at him and said calmly: "I have said before that it is their freedom whether to surrender to me or not."
"this"
Han Xin hesitated for a moment, then asked helplessly: "Okay, what about Ying Hao, how do you plan to deal with it?"
"It depends on how the emperor's uncle chooses."
Zhao Hao smiled meaningfully and ordered: "Tomorrow, he, Ying Zhan and others will be escorted to Xianyang and imprisoned in the prison of Tingwei Mansion!"
"promise."
Han Xin bowed his hands, then turned and exited the study.
Zhao Hao pondered for a moment and then said to Wuya: "Senior brother, I have to trouble you with one more thing. My mother's clan is in Yongcheng. You can help me protect them for a while. By the way, I can investigate the relationship between Mrs. Hualan and the emperor's uncle. And this person Ying Chang."
"good!"
Wuya didn't say much, nodded in agreement, and then walked out of the study.
When only Zhao Hao and Meng were left in the study, Zhao Hao rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Mond, do you and General Meng Tian often communicate with each other?"
"Um?"
Mond was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to his senses and tentatively said, "Sir, do you want to have a son?"
"My eldest brother has been gone for more than two months, and I don't know how he is doing now!"
"If you want to have a son, you can write letters to the eldest son."
Zhao Hao shook his head and said: "I want to, but it's not possible right now. Next time you write a letter home, please give me a sentence, okay?"
"That"
Mond blinked and asked curiously: "Master, what do you want to tell the eldest son?"
Zhao Hao thought for a moment, then slowly came to the window, looked at the moonlight outside the window, and couldn't help but put his hands behind his back and said:
"The wind rises at the end of the green grass, the waves form between the gentle waves, the flowers bloom at the bottom of the valley, and the moon shines at the bottom of the sea. Instead of complaining in the darkness, it is better to hold up the lantern and move forward!"
"this"
Mond's eyes widened, and his scalp instantly felt numb.
