Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The new year has arrived.
At this time in Da Qin, although it had the meaning of the New Year, it was not as grand as the New Year in later generations. There were no firecrackers, and there were no Spring Festival couplets.
Therefore, Zhao Shu didn't do anything, and was wiped out by the sound of firecrackers.
"Palace Master, all the gifts are ready." Yaoyao said towards Zhao Shu.
Hearing this, Zhao Shu nodded and said, "Let Tie Qi prepare. After I see Aweng, we will set off!"
"promise."
Zhao Shu walked into the backyard and saw Zhao De and others. He quickly saluted and said.
"My son has met Aweng and grandma, I wish Aweng and grandma long life——!"
"Skill!"
Zhao De watched his son arrive, a smile appeared on his serious face, but his father's majesty made him stay where he was.
But the uncontrollable excitement can still be seen.
"Shu'er!"
"Grandma."
Mother and son talked for a while.
"I've met brother!" At this moment, the two people who came back from the academy came over to greet Zhao Shu.
Although they all have new names, they are still called by their old names at home.
Zhao Shu smiled and said, "It's good that you've grown up. Your gifts are all in the front yard, and Yaoyao will deliver them later."
"Thank you, brother!"
After a long time, Zhao Shu left the mansion.
Today is the beginning of the year, and he needs to participate in the royal family's sacrifice, so naturally he cannot delay at the house. Of course, Qin Wangzheng is the chief priest, and he is just a foil.
Half an hour later, Zhao Shu and Qin Wangzheng met up and came to the depths of Xianyang Palace, where the Great Qin Ancestral Temple was located.
In addition to the ancestral land of Yongcheng, the ancestral temple here is a symbol of the orthodoxy of the Qin Dynasty.
At this moment, Qin Wangzheng was the leader, followed by the eldest son Fusu and others, and everyone in the clan including Weiyang Jun Yingxi and others were present.
Zhao Shu rushed over and quickly saluted everyone: "General, I have met the king, all the young masters, and all the clan elders!"
Qin Wangzheng, Fusu and others nodded, and everyone in the clan called him Young Master. After some greetings, everyone came to the ancestral temple.
"The ancestor worship begins!"
Lord Zongzheng of Weiyang shouted, and Qin Wangzheng stepped forward, lit three pillars of incense and inserted them into the incense burner.
"May the ancestors of Great Qin bless our Great Qin and my family with the surname Ying!"
At the same time, the rest of the people lit incense and raised their heads to worship, saying in a deep voice: "May the ancestors of Great Qin bless my Great Qin and my family with the surname Ying!"
At this moment, the atmosphere was quite solemn.
At this time, Qin Wangzheng was not a king, but a clan leader with the surname Ying.
After some worship, everyone returned to Zhangtai Palace. King Qin looked at Weiyang Lord and said, "Prepare a family banquet."
"promise."
After everyone dispersed, Qin Wangzheng looked towards Zhao Gao under the porch and said: "Zhao Gao, I have sent an edict to the civil and military officials. I will hold a banquet in Xianyang Palace tonight and let them bring their children to the banquet."
"promise."
After Zhao Gao left, Qin Wangzheng looked at Zhao Shu and said, "Boy, my son, you probably only know Fusu, right?"
Hearing this, Zhao Shu smiled and nodded: "Your Majesty, the general has been a little busy recently and has never been free to visit you gentlemen."
Having said this, Zhao Shu turned to Fusu and others and said, "I'm here, please forgive me, gentlemen!"
"Gongzi Shu, you are now also a member of my tribe with the surname Ying, why are you so unfamiliar!" Fusu spoke first, smiling to resolve the awkwardness in the scene.
Fusu naturally knew Zhao Shu's talent, and he also knew that Qin Wangzheng had always wanted him to get close to Zhao Shu.
There was no opportunity before, but now that there is an opportunity, Fusu will not miss it.
"Shu has met the eldest son!"
Seeing Fusu rescuing him, Zhao Shu signaled with a smile. The smile on his face dispelled the tyranny of the military general in Zhao Shu.
For a while, the atmosphere was somewhat harmonious.
"Gongzi Shu, let me introduce you to the younger brothers!" Fusu smiled and then pointed at the young gentlemen: "This is the second brother Jiang Lu, the third brother Gao, the fourth brother...this is The eighteenth brother Hu Hai."
His eyes passed over every Da Qin master, and finally stayed on Hu Hai for a while, and he couldn't help but smile a little.
Just this seemingly harmless little kid destroyed the mighty Great Qin that was defeated by the ancestors of the Great Qin Dynasty.
He can be called the most prodigal son in China for five thousand years.
"Shu has met you gentlemen!"
At this time, Fuyao turned to Hu Hai and others and said, "This is the master of the Hidden Palace who is famous throughout Zhao!"
"I've seen Young Master Shu before!" At this moment, everyone saluted Zhao Shu.
They are all gentlemen.
In terms of blood, they were naturally more noble, but they all knew that Zhao Shu was fighting in the army and was already a Duke.
Now he is in charge of the Hidden Palace, and his status and power are above them. Even the eldest son Fusu cannot compare with them.
Therefore, at this moment, they were not dissatisfied with Zhao Shu.
Da Qin was a pragmatic dynasty.
The same goes for Master Da Qin. They all know the gap between themselves and Zhao Shu. Of course, the most important thing is that Qin Wangzheng attaches great importance to Zhao Shu.
They all knew that Zhao Shu's crowning ceremony was held in Yongcheng, and all of them who were crowned were in Xianyang.
Even if it is, the eldest son Fusu is no exception.
Therefore, they did not dare to be disrespectful to Zhao Shu.
"Haha, I've seen them all before!"
Qin Wangzheng took a sip of the warm wine and said to Zhao Shu: "I have prepared the best old yellow wine for you. A waiter will warm the wine for you in a moment."
"Gongzi Shu, what do you think of my son?"
As soon as these words came out, everything in Zhangtai Palace became quiet and the atmosphere became tense.
Everyone stared at Zhao Shu nervously. They all knew that Zhao Shu's words might change their subsequent treatment.
At least, Qin Wangzheng will be blamed.
Hearing this, Zhao Shu smiled helplessly, picked up the wine cup and took a sip of Qin wine: "Your Majesty, all of you young masters are among the best."
"I, the King of Qin, am a mighty warrior, so my descendants will naturally be unparalleled in the world!"
Zhao Shu's words made Fusu and others heave a sigh of relief. They all thought it was a compliment, but Qin Wangzheng knew very well that not even a word of these words could be trusted.
This guy just doesn't want to offend anyone.
"When you go to the army this time, do you want to take them with you and let them witness the battlefield and witness some blood?"
Thinking that Zhao Shu's amazing talents all started in the army, at this moment, Qin Wangzheng couldn't help but think.
He does not expect Fusu and others to be as sharp as Zhao Shu, but if they make some progress, it will be very good.
After drinking all the wine in the wine cup, Zhao Shu shook his head: "Your Majesty, it's not that the junior general is unwilling to take it, but that the senior general is the commander-in-chief of the three armies."
"If the final decision is made, it will be considered as overstepping the mark."
"Moreover, the battlefield is extremely dangerous, with flashes of swords and shadows. If the king wants to train the young masters, there is no need to go to the army."
"It can also be done in the official offices of the national government or the official offices of the national captain's government."
