At this moment, Li Si was complicated.
It is no surprise that Zhao Shu is a genius. Such a person, coming from his sect, can be regarded as a kind of inheritance of what he has learned, and he is worthy of the teachings of his ancestors.
However, Zhao Shu's identity is too complicated, which makes Li Si still feel uneasy.
He spoke this time not to test Qin Wangzheng, but because he was really worried.
Especially after he understood Qin Wangzheng's intentions, this worry and the uneasiness in his heart were undoubtedly more obvious.
"There's nothing wrong with what I said. Who in the whole Qin Dynasty dares to be so presumptuous?" Putting down the teacup in his hand, the smile on Ying Zheng's face faded and became full of murderous intent.
At this time, Li Si was also stunned, frightened by Ying Zheng's sudden change.
Although everyone in the world said that the king of Qin was domineering and cruel.
But Li Si knew that unless the bottom line was touched, Ying Zheng rarely got angry in front of his ministers.
On the contrary, he always maintained a pleasant appearance.
"I understand."
At this moment, Li Si nodded and did not get entangled in this matter.
Anyway, it was Qin Wangzheng who personally issued the edict, and with Qin Wangzheng's endorsement, accepting Zhao Shu as his disciple should have no impact on his career.
Seeing that Li Si understood, Ying Zheng nodded: "There is no rush in this matter now. When I return from Yongcheng, I will issue an edict. It is more reasonable to change the name like this."
"promise."
With a nod of agreement, Li Si bid farewell to Ying Zheng and left Zhangtai Palace.
Watching Li Si leave, Ying Zheng withdrew his eyes and continued to read the report. In fact, there were some problems that Li Si could figure out even if he didn't explain them in detail.
However, doing so is not conducive to the trust between the monarch and his subjects, not to mention that in Ying Zheng's view, being a king requires absolute self-confidence.
If he is afraid of even one of his ministers, he is no king at all.
Of course, if the ministers are strong and the king is at a disadvantage, he can tolerate it, but when he cannot hold the power, he is still afraid of the ministers.
Ying Zheng didn't care about Zhao Shu's mention of becoming a disciple of Li Si. As long as he was here, he had the final say in everything in Da Qin.
If Zhao Shu had chosen Wang Wan or Feng Quji instead of Wang Jian, he would have been a little hesitant, but Li Si was an exception.
Li Si is a person who is loyal to himself or to power.
He knows how to make his choice.
What's more, in Ying Zheng's view, Zhao Shu really needs to be cultivated. Looking at the entire Great Qin, Li Si's knowledge is first-class.
With Zhao Shu's talent and Li Si's ability, he might be able to give him a surprise.
.........
After returning to the mansion, Zhao Shu had been sitting on the big stone in the courtyard, staring at the few swimming fish in the artificial lake in a daze.
"Master, what are you thinking about?" Tie Qi looked at Zhao Shu in front of him and couldn't help but ask.
In the entire mansion, he was the only one who was close to Zhao Shu. Apart from that, even Han Ji and Zhao Ji were not close to Zhao Shu.
Of course, Zhao Shu's mansion was only built in a hurry by the Qin government and condensed by the royal power in an instant.
People's hearts are complex and it is naturally impossible for them to be of one heart and one mind.
If you want this mansion to become popular, it will take at least half a year to a year to make the transition. Once we are familiar with each other, everything will be fine.
Hearing this, Zhao Shu raised his head and glanced at Tie Qi, then continued to look at You Yu: "Tie Qi, do you know the Mohist craftsmen or the Gongshu family?"
"What does the head of the family mean?"
Tie Qi was a little surprised. Zhao Shu's mansion was complete and had been repaired by the court a long time ago. There was no room for expansion and no need for repairs.
"The mansions here are all of a certain scale. You cannot expand the mansion without the king's permission. Moreover, the owner's mansion is directly next to the mansion of the royal family..."
At this moment, Tie Qi was shocked. In his opinion, Zhao Shu had just entered Xianyang and had no foundation, so he should not do such a thing.
Otherwise, you will offend people in vain and get no benefits.
"Don't worry, I have no intention of expanding the mansion!" Zhao Shu pointed to the study not far away: "It's just that I think the study is a bit small, and I plan to connect the study with other rooms."
"Just leaving my dormitory is enough."
Sanjin's residence does not occupy a large area at all. Even if it is the residence of a prince of the royal family, it is only a little larger.
His mansion is quite decent, and he plans to knock down the entire third entrance, occupy some space in the second entrance, and expand it into a study.
He had some plans in mind, but after all, he was not in the construction industry and did not understand drainage, structure and other issues.
He can only find someone who is proficient in these to guide him.
For these trivial matters, he didn't want to trouble Li Si and Zhang Han, so he could only ask Tie Qi. After all, Tie Qi was nominally his.
"Master, the people from the Mo family and the people from the Gongshu family all know each other, but what the master needs is construction?"
Tie Qi agreed wholeheartedly.
As long as the mansion is not being expanded, there is basically no problem. Since he can't find anyone, he can let the people above solve it.
"Well, you can find one or two people. I need to meet you. As for the money and food, you can get it from your elders!"
"promise."
Tie Qi turned around and left. Zhao Shu frowned slightly. He not only wanted to build a study room, he also wanted to build a secret room or a small workshop underground.
Moreover, Sticky Rod needs to have a station in the mansion, and most importantly, he needs to prepare some back-ups and train some dead soldiers.
At the same time, he needed money and food, and he needed to support the Chamber of Commerce, which meant that he needed a small workshop to conduct experiments.
Judging from the current situation, Zhao Shu will not be able to go to the Shaofu's official office in the short term. However, these times are precisely the times when he is most short of money and food.
If Zhao Shu wants to cooperate with Qin Wangzheng and intervene in merchants, he needs to come up with something to make Qin Wangzheng interested, rather than just relying on his mouth to get recognition.
He is not Fusu and has the capital to try and make mistakes.
At this time, the elder of the family came over, with a bitter face, and said to Zhao Shu: "Master, there is no money in the house!"
"If this continues, our family will be starving in less than half a month!"
The elder looked at Zhao Shu and felt his head grow bigger. He had never seen a man who spent money like Zhao Shu.
The mansion had just been established, and some of the previous rewards from the imperial court were not distributed in Xianyang, but all in Yongcheng.
When he came to Xianyang this time, Zhao Shu only brought some expenses, and the rest was all sent by Xianyang Palace. This was a bonus for the first time he was given a mansion.
However, the amount of money and food was not large, and it was just enough for the household expenses. However, Zhao Shu spent money like water, and even a wealthy family could not spend it like this!
If it hadn't been for some gifts of money and food sent by Zong Zheng's mansion a while ago, the mansion would have been empty by now.
As a result, Tie Qi just came again.
