Ten days later.
At the foot of Mount Tai.
Fifty thousand Qin troops lined up in formation, with a majestic momentum like a rainbow. The black Suzaku flag was hunting in the wind. From a distance, it looked like a black ocean.
As the red sun rises in the east, the sun shines brightly, and tens of thousands of Qin soldiers stand tall and clear, emitting a dazzling cold glow in the hands of tens of thousands of Qin soldiers, which is intimidating.
On top of the simple yet domineering chariot, Ying Zheng, dressed in emperor's attire, was closing his eyes and concentrating.
A total of seventy people, including civil and military officials and Confucian scholars and doctors, stood around.
As time goes by, the sun gradually rises.
A civil servant with three strands of beautiful beard and good temperament came out and asked: "Your Majesty, I have a message."
Even without opening his eyes, Ying Zheng knew that the person speaking was Prime Minister Li Si, a person who had already been included in his must-kill list.
"speak"
Li Si didn't know that his death was approaching, so he cleared his throat and said with great energy: "Your Majesty's enthronement of Mount Tai is an important event for the ages. I have repeatedly discussed it with the ministers and Confucian scholars, and I believe that today's noon is an auspicious time. If I delay it any longer, I'm afraid it will be a disaster." Missed auspicious time."
Several Confucian scholars and doctors who were in charge of the Zen ceremony also expressed their hope that Ying Zheng could climb the mountain as soon as possible.
Ying Zheng looked at the sky and closed his eyes: "Then let the auspicious time wait for me."
The corners of Li Si's mouth twitched and he made a promise.
…
It's a short distance of four hundred miles from Peixian County to Mount Tai, so Cao Yi didn't walk very fast. During the day, you will travel normally, and then take a rest as soon as it gets dark.
The day before the enshrinement of Zen, I came to the vicinity of Mount Tai. I accidentally discovered a lot of Ganoderma lucidum on a cliff, so I was delayed all night.
"Taoist Priest, we have collected Ganoderma lucidum"
A majestic man carrying a basket on his back and covered with sweat came down the steep cliff.
This person is none other than Xiang Yu.
Cao Yi put the Ganoderma lucidum into the gourd, looked at the sky and said, "Your Majesty and his ministers should be in a hurry and leave."
Xiang Yu stood still, his expression hesitant.
Cao Yi walked a few steps, but didn't hear any footsteps behind him. When he turned back, he found that Xiang Yu hadn't moved. He was silent for a while and said: "On the way here, didn't Pindao let you see the future? Don't limit your vision to the change of dynasties. , The world is huge, you can roam around as you wish, don’t be bound by the vast land of China.”
Xiang Yu's expression relaxed a little. Someone flashed in his mind, and then he tensed up again: "But uncle"
It turns out that I was worried about Xiang Liang’s attitude!
Cao Yi shook his head and said: "This is your own business. You are Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu. Qin Shihuang is the emperor of the ages. You are the king of the ages. You are not a child who has not grown up. You don't have to listen to your elders in everything."
Xiang Yu hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"Pindao will convince His Majesty to let you establish a kingdom in a foreign land, so that your uncle will not object."
Cao Yi added another sentence.
"It is impossible to establish a feudal state and build a country"
Xiang Yu shook his head repeatedly, how could a man who didn't even enfeoff his own son allow people with different surnames to split the earth and enfeoff.
"The world is too big"
Cao Yi left behind a word and walked forward.
Xiang Yu followed thoughtfully.
The place where Ganoderma was collected was actually not far from where Ying Zheng was, and it didn't take long for Cao Yi and Xiang Yu to arrive.
What you see is a black ocean with overwhelming momentum.
"how?"
Cao Yi looked back at Xiang Yu.
"I can defeat this Qin army with only half as many soldiers of the same strength."
Xiang Yu's tone was arrogant.
Cao Yi didn't say anything. If someone else's first reaction was to laugh at Xiang Yu, he knew history and clearly understood what a war genius is. In the ranking of the Brave Fighters, Xiang Yu said he was second, but no one dared to say he was first.
"Here he comes, the master your Majesty has been waiting for is here."
Suddenly, a sharp voice came.
Cao Yi looked over when he heard the sound, and saw a eunuch-looking man emerging from the black ocean and ran back quickly.
Not long after, a civil servant with three strands of beautiful beard and good temperament came over with a large group of people.
Cao Yi clearly saw that except for Li Si and a few civil servants and generals, the faces of those who came to greet him were not very good-looking, especially the Confucian scholars and doctors.
"Here, by His Majesty's order, I am here to greet the Taoist Priest."
The leading civil servant, Li Si, handed over his hand.
"Excuse me, Prime Minister Zuo"
Cao Yi also bowed his hand.
Today, the imperial court has two prime ministers, Prime Minister Feng Quji on the right, and Prime Minister Li Si on the left. Unlike the six eastern countries, the Qin Dynasty respected the right, so Li Si was only the second-largest civil servant.
What Li Si disliked the most was being called Prime Minister Zuo, but he didn't show it. Being able to work under Ying Zheng for so long, returning the official position to a bigger and bigger job, and not being able to express his emotions or anger is a basic skill for him.
"Taoist Master, please"
Li Si turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation.
The doctors and Confucian scholars who followed him, who valued etiquette more important than their lives, were not so good-tempered, and they all put on bad faces. If it weren't for the wrong occasion, or if it was a different dynasty, he would have already stood up and asked Cao Yi why he came so late.
Cao Yi simply ignored it and moved forward, and soon entered the black ocean, with endless rows of neat soldiers and flags fluttering in the wind on both sides.
Beside, Li Si, who was walking almost side by side, waved his hand, not knowing whether it was intentional or not.
In the distance, multiple black Suzaku flags waved.
"wind"
"wind"
"wind"
…
A sound like a roaring mountain and a tsunami swept through the world, causing the world to pale.
Cao Yi looked around, feeling agitated.
Such momentum, such a lineup, can't be found in many teams in two thousand years.
"nice"
Li Si looked excited.
"nice"
Cao Yi also said something.
The military formation composed of 50,000 Qin troops was neither small nor large, and it did not last long.
Cao Yi and Li Si went to Gaixin, where Ying Zheng's chariot was located.
Ying Zheng had already changed into casual clothes that were more convenient for climbing and was waiting. There was unconcealable expectation and faint worry on his somewhat old face.
"His Majesty"
Cao Yi handed over.
"Can the elixir of death be made?"
Ying Zheng asked impatiently.
"Already refined"
Cao Yi replied.
"good"
The faint worry on Ying Zheng's face was swept away.
"But first we need to build an altar."
Cao Yi added.
"Why is this? Could it be the Taoist Priest?"
Ying Zheng thought Cao Yi was doing some false etiquette and looked confused.
Cao Yi glanced behind him.
Ying Zheng understood immediately and said coldly: "You guys, please step back."
Li Si bowed his hands and retreated with a group of civil servants and generals.
Cao Yi then lowered his voice and said: "It's called an altar, but it's actually a formation that defies the will of heaven and kills people. After taking the medicine, everyone in the formation will die as long as they are there."
Ying Zheng looked shocked and said: "Since it is so important, why not find a new place and dig out the ground to build a palace."
Cao Yi shook his head: "Don't go to such trouble. When the altar is built, it will automatically sink ten feet."
"This way, I feel at ease."
Ying Zheng's expression softened.
"But we still need to build another one under the banner of Feng Chan to avoid any accidents in the future when technology becomes more prosperous."
Cao Yi added.
Ying Zheng nodded. Having seen the future, he knew how powerful future technology would be. It would not be difficult to blow up the top of a mere Mount Tai.
