Wang Jian is not young anymore.
Moreover, he has always been in the army, fighting in the north and south, and his body has many old injuries. This is why Wang Jian has rarely appeared in the court since the unification of the empire.
Although Wang Jian is old, he is still a famous general in the world. He has destroyed several countries in a row. This kind of terrifying deterrent power is definitely not comparable to ordinary people.
Wang Jian's influence in the army and in the world can only be matched by Yingshu.
Meng Wu fell, which made the First Emperor worried about Wang Jian's health. He knew in his heart that even if Wang Jian was going to fall, he couldn't do it at this time.
Otherwise, the impact on the empire would be too bad.
The palace.
Zhao Gao arrived with his imperial doctor, and Wang Jian went out to greet him personally. It was not that Wang Jian cared about Zhao Gao so much, but that Zhao Gao brought the imperial edict from the First Emperor with him.
It can be said that Zhao Gao represents the face of the First Emperor.
Even though he felt a little dissatisfied with Zhao Gao in his heart, Wang Jian's way of dealing with others never disappoints anyone.
"Zhao Gao, I have met Wucheng Hou!" Zhao Gao saw Wang Jian, Zhao Gao quickly saluted Wang Jian and said.
Apart from the difference in status and stance, as a Qin man, Zhao Gao was naturally in awe of Wang Jian.
Because Wang Jian has established achievements that have never been achieved by anyone before him.
Moreover, the fact that Wang Jian was able to enjoy his old age and have a harmonious relationship with the First Emperor is enough to explain everything.
"No need to be polite, Zhao Mansion!" Wang Jian smiled and said to Zhao Gao, "Please!"
Hearing this, Zhao Gao did not pick up the topic, but turned to Wang Jian and said, "I heard that the Marquis of Wucheng was infected with the cold, and your Majesty sent the imperial doctor here!"
"We've already arrived at Wucheng, so don't bother me anymore!"
"Your Majesty will come up with you later to visit Marquis Wucheng!"
"Ling Zhao, thank you very much!"
At this moment, there was a hint of sincerity in Wang Jian's words. He knew in his heart that Zhao Gao did not need to say the following sentence.
However, Zhao Gao said it.
This is a favor!
In the court, any prompt will be a kind of priority of information. As an old owl in the court, Wang Jian naturally understands this truth.
"Easy to do!"
Zhao Gao nodded and left.
Wang Jian withdrew his gaze, looked at his elders, and said, "Instruct the kitchen to prepare meals. Your Majesty and Your Majesty will be here!"
"promise!"
.......
When the family elder left, Wang Jian's eyes were full of solemnity.
He naturally felt the changes in the atmosphere in Xianyang City, especially the sudden adoption of Ying Shu as his heir by the First Emperor, which showed a different message.
At this point, Wang Jian was keenly aware of the changes, and felt somewhat relieved in his heart.
At least, the situation is developing in a good direction. Wang has a good relationship with Ying Shu and is not as alienated as he is with Fu Su and Hu Hai.
Wang Jian knew in his heart that now that Wang was with him, he didn't have to make a choice, but he was already old.
Wang Ben is talented, but Wang Li seems average.
This means that Wang will have to choose a side sooner or later.
.........
Sikou General Administration.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has an edict to rush to Zhangtai Palace immediately!" Zhao Gao walked into the Sikou General Office, raised his hand towards Ying Shu, and said.
"good!"
Putting the case file in his hand at the bottom of the desk, Yingshu stood up and said, "Let's go!"
"promise!"
No need to hesitate at all.
He knew in his heart that when the First Emperor came to him, he usually had something important to do, especially to ask Zhao Gao to come.
After a while, Ying Shu and Zhao Gao arrived at Zhangtai Palace. Along the way, Ying Shu didn't ask any questions.
He knew in his heart that asking Zhao Gao about some things would be in vain. The First Emperor would tell him one by one anyway.
Sometimes, once asked, it would put Zhao Gao in an embarrassing situation.
"My son, I pay homage to my father. Your Majesty, the Emperor, will live forever—!" Ying Shu walked into Zhangtai Palace, bowed to the First Emperor, and said.
Hearing this, the First Emperor put down the documents and said towards Yingshu, "Here he comes!"
"Um!"
Nodding, Yingshu walked to the side and sat down, then cupped his hands and said, "I wonder why my father summoned my son?"
The First Emperor glanced at Yingshu, smiled, and said: "I heard that the general was infected with the cold, and I wanted to go and have a look with you!"
"General?"
Hearing this, Ying Shu was a little stunned, but then he understood: "Okay!"
Nodding, Yingshu handed over to the First Emperor: "My son, I will prepare gifts now. I rarely go to the general's mansion, so I am empty-handed..."
"Zhao Gao is ready!"
The First Emperor stood up, interrupted the winning technique, and said: "Just go ahead!"
"promise!"
...
Half an hour later, Ying Shu and the First Emperor traveled in a carriage and arrived at Wang Jian's house.
Wang Jian came to greet him with his sick body in his arms.
"Your Majesty, Wang Jian, has seen you. Your Majesty, the Emperor, has been endless for ten thousand years—!" Wang Jian took the lead in saluting the First Emperor, and then said to Ying Shu, "I have seen you, Your Majesty!"
At the same time, the Wang clan members all saluted the First Emperor and Ying Shu: "I have seen your Majesty. Your Majesty the Emperor will last forever—!"
"I've seen you, Your Majesty!"
"Wucheng Marquis, there is no need to be polite, get up quickly!" The First Emperor stepped forward and helped Wang Jian up: "Wucheng Marquis is not feeling well, so there is no need to be polite!"
"Everyone, please get back on your feet!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
At this moment, everyone thanked him and the atmosphere suddenly became warm.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's cold outside, please--!" At the same time, Wang Jian opened his invitation to the First Emperor and Ying Shu.
"good!"
The First Emperor took the lead and walked forward. Ying Shu also smiled and said, "General, please—!"
........
In the living room.
At this moment, tea has been delivered.
Wang Jian looked at the First Emperor and couldn't help but say, "I am sorry to hear you are ill. I would like to trouble Your Majesty to come and visit me. I am afraid..."
"You don't need to be polite, Marquis Wucheng. This is what I should do!" The First Emperor took a sip of tea and said to Wang Jian, "I asked Zhao Gao to send an imperial doctor here. Marquis Wucheng should take care of yourself!"
"Da Qin still needs Wucheng waiting..."
"Ha ha......."
With a loud laugh, Wang Jian smiled and said: "Your Majesty, now that the king has grown up, Li Mu's body is still strong enough to ensure the stability of the empire!"
"Having said that, Li Mu is not you after all!"
The First Emperor looked at Wang Jian and said word by word: "As far as I am concerned, one person in Wucheng can dominate all the generals in the world!"
"With Wucheng waiting by my side, I feel at ease!"
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. This old man, I will most likely live for a few more years!" Wang Jian smiled. He had already taken a dim view of death.
Moreover, now that Wang Ben has grown up, and Wang Li has a good relationship with Ying Shu, this means that the Wang family can flourish within a hundred years.
At this time, apart from wanting to see Wang Li get married, he no longer had any big pursuits.
