Zhao Si sat up in shock, causing the maid to serve in a panic.
"No, I'm already late!" Zhao Si noticed Hua Dian, slowed down his movements and rubbed his temples.
I was so overindulgent last night, drinking and having sex, that now my head is a little swollen.
After getting dressed under the service of the maid, the maid went to fetch water and prepared to wash Zhao Si. Zhao Si came to the bronze mirror and saw that his hair was messy, his face was yellow, the corners of his eyes were swollen, and his lips were dry.
"I was hurt by drinking and sex, and I turned out to be so haggard!" Zhao Si was shocked!
Recalling that I had indeed been a bit lewd recently, I patted my cheek and stood up.
"How can a man be so indulgent? From today on, stop drinking!"
Having said that, the maid has already brought a basin, towel, mouthwash and shaped salt.
Zhao Si immediately tilted his head and leaned into the maid's arms to enjoy the early morning service.
After he had finished washing up, Zhao Si stretched his muscles and bones and looked completely new. He immediately took out the bicycle frame from the other courtyard and drove the car himself.
He stepped on the accelerator and hurried towards the palace. Zhao Si went straight to the palace without even going to the doctor's office.
After entering the palace, Zhao Si waited anxiously for the body search and verification, thinking about how to explain later.
As a result, after waiting... for half an hour, Zhao Si could only stand in front of the palace gate in a daze.
"bad!"
"In the past, people from the palace were ushered into the palace as soon as they heard the news." Zhao Si murmured to himself. He was left hanging at the palace gate, perhaps because the First Emperor did not do it intentionally.
Zhao Si had no choice but to look around and wait secretly. After waiting for about half an hour, he saw Zhao Gao coming to the palace gate and said: "Shilang Zhao, please come into the palace!"
Zhao Si immediately straightened his clothes and followed Zhao Gao step by step.
"Shilang Zhao is late today." Zhao Gao suddenly spoke.
Zhao Si was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Zhao Gao was talking to him, so he nodded and said with a smile: "I drank too much yesterday and missed the time."
Zhao Gao nodded and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is not angry, so there is no need to worry, Minister Zhao."
Zhao Si glanced at Zhao Gao's back slightly strangely. Although there was no flattery, Zhao Gao's intention to show good will was obvious.
As far as the current contact is concerned, Zhao Gao has not shown any hostility towards him, even though Zhao Si has robbed Zhao Gao of certain rights and functions, and even made some kind gestures today.
But the more this happened, the more Zhao Si felt that something was wrong. This kind of person was either a human spirit, or had a deep mind, and could clearly see the difference between a deer and a horse. Zhao Si knew that he was too naive and did not want to have too much contact with Zhao Gao.
Therefore, Zhao Si just smiled and said: "Thank you, CRRC, for reminding me."
After that, there was not much communication, and Zhao Si deliberately kept a certain distance.
Zhao Si knew that Zhao Gao was siding with Hu Hai, and also knew that Zhao Gao might want to win over him, but Zhao Si couldn't play with Li Xu in the fire, so he might as well simply draw a clear line, not show hostility, not get close, and deal with it coldly.
In short, he and Zhao Gao were not at odds with each other, and Zhao Gao could not deliberately offend himself because he failed to win over him.
"Hey... Zhao Gao doesn't take care of it anymore, I always feel uncomfortable!"
Along the way, Zhao Si thought to himself that if he had good political skills and could hide his emotions and anger, it would not be impossible for him to use the information gap to penetrate into the enemy's interior, but Zhao Si did not have the ability to be a spy.
A direct showdown, and there is no reason to kill Zhao Gao.
Meng Yi's request to kill Zhao Gao was suppressed by the First Emperor himself. Zhao Si could not jump out and say that Zhao Gao would definitely falsify the imperial edict and treat a deer as a horse in the future.
Wouldn't that be unnecessary? Even if things don't work out, they'll make themselves embarrassed.
"A real hunter will not give any chance before taking action." Zhao Si murmured to himself...
Marching all the way, straight into the palace.
When they got inside, Zhao Gao stayed outside. Zhao Si took a peek and saw that the First Emperor was handling government affairs. Zhao Si entered carefully, then stood still and bowed to salute.
"Zhao Si came late, please punish me!" Zhao Si thought for a long time but couldn't think of an excuse. He had no choice. He was so drunk that Zhao Si couldn't wake up. The concubine at home couldn't wake Zhao Si up. Zhao Si is the oldest in the family, and no one dares to give Zhao Si a hard blow.
There is no excuse, so it is better to just plead guilty.
The First Emperor's finger holding the pen suddenly paused, his body shook slightly, and he let out a slight laugh. He did not expect Zhao Si to be so straightforward.
"Since I'm here to plead guilty, what's the crime of missing the deadline?" The First Emperor put down the brush with amusement on his face.
"Those who fail to serve will be punished with a second rank, and those who fail to serve in the army will be beheaded." Zhao Si answered carefully.
"Get up..." The First Emperor sighed for no reason, and Zhao Si straightened up immediately.
"I'll punish you with two penalties. If you do it again next time, you'll be punished twice as much!" said the First Emperor with a serious look on his face.
In fact, Zhao Si cannot be punished according to this law at all. Zhao Si's tardiness is not considered a default, but is considered late in the administration. Chi Zheng will be fined according to the severity of the situation. If the salary is not enough, he will be fined.
Zhao Si was no longer a novice in the law. He knew in his heart that he had taken advantage. He immediately smiled, took two steps forward and said, "Your Majesty, have you had lunch at noon? I will prepare it now?"
The First Emperor glanced at Zhao Si and signaled Zhao Si to go and prepare.
He's... really hungry.
Not only had lunch not been eaten, but the First Emperor had also not eaten breakfast. Zhao Si had already set dietary standards for the First Emperor, and he could make it even if Zhao Si did not come to the palace kitchen.
It's just a pity that without Zhao Si, the Emperor's appetite for the already bland weight loss meal was even worse.
Zhao Si was ordered to immediately prepare food for the First Emperor in a hurry, and he was so busy that he hurriedly delivered it to the First Emperor.
Watching Zhao Si eating together, and then looking at Fade Bird's weight-loss meal, the First Emperor sighed and managed to regain his appetite and ate it forcefully.
Losing weight is a matter of perseverance. The First Emperor naturally had this perseverance, but it cannot be denied that the process is indeed painful.
After the two of them had finished eating, the First Emperor lay down on the recliner skillfully, while Zhao Si waved the cattail leaf fan for the First Emperor in a familiar and flattering manner.
"The craftsman you want has been assigned to Lang Zhongling." The First Emperor threw a scroll of memorials to Zhao Si.
"You still need to send someone. Go to the Shaofu to ask for someone." After saying that, he threw a token to Zhao Si.
The Shaofu is the production center of Da Qin. The real master craftsmen are all in the Shaofu. However, the Shaofu and Lang Zhongling are on the same level and belong to two departments. If you want to transfer people from the Shaofu, you have to go through the Jiuqing procedure according to the process. Meng Yi Unfortunately, Chi Gong, the right prime minister of the Shaofu, and Meng Yi, the minister's minister, were not very good at dealing with the matter.
The First Emperor was too lazy to review official documents on personnel deployment, so he simply gave Zhao Si an order and asked Zhao Si to ask for people by himself.
Zhao Si took the token and his eyes lit up!
You can go to the General's office and ask for people at will, and there are so many things you can do!
The craftsmen in Jiangzuo Shaofu are real master craftsmen, the best craftsmen in the world, and there are even a large number of Mohist disciples!
Zhao Si is naturally moved! Mohist disciples, let alone those who play politics and be knights.
Those people who play with technical theory are the ones Zhao Si needs the most!
Zhao Si had a lot of thoughts in his mind.
Still asking for someone!
Zhao Si quickly stuffed the token into his arms.
"When I fall asleep, I can go away." The First Emperor waved his hand and closed his eyes.
There was no way... Zhao Si was gone, and he really couldn't sleep well.
