The next day, Zhao Si got up early as usual.
After washing up under the service of the maid, and having a small meal at home as usual, Zhao Si rode the carriage towards the palace.
Zhao Si's current schedule is very regular. He goes to bed at eight or nine o'clock every night, gets up at five or six in the morning, and sometimes takes a nap with the First Emperor at noon.
Compared with the work and rest in the underworld in the previous life, it is really much healthier.
There was no way, there weren't many entertainment activities in ancient times, especially the lack of nightlife. Even though Zhao Si had gone through hundreds of battles, he couldn't withstand the devastation every night, let alone fight until eleven or twelve o'clock.
When they arrived at the palace gate, Li Siru and Zhao Si met together in front of the palace gate to receive the inspection pass.
It is worth mentioning that Li Si actually had the privilege of entering the palace at any time, but Li Si, like Zhao Si, did not exercise his own privileges, but accepted the examination as usual and waited for approval.
"Prime Minister Li!" Zhao Si bowed his hands in salute.
Li Si yawned and waved his hand in return, with visible fatigue on his face.
"Li Xiang didn't sleep well?" Zhao Si smiled and talked with Li Si. After getting along for more than a month, the two were comrades on the same front, grasshoppers on the same rope, and comrades who would be divided into pieces in the future. The relationship can be considered familiar. Networked.
"Two things..." Li Si frowned and did not hide it from Zhao Si.
"Last night, the stargazer played hurriedly, confusing the guardian's heart, and the emperor's star was swaying... Also, when the Qin envoy was walking from Guanyin to Xianyang, he encountered a stranger blocking the way. He gave a jade wall and told the envoy..." Li Si Having said this, he hesitated for a moment and waved to Zhao Si, beckoning Zhao Si to come up.
Zhao Si moved forward sensibly.
"The stranger left a message, Zulong will die this year!" Li Si said in a low voice.
"Now the Guanyin area is full of troubles, and it has spread all over Guanzhong." Li Si sighed.
"Zu Long will die this year?" Zhao Si raised his eyebrows.
If I remember correctly, I did see this paragraph when I was reading a book in my previous life.
When the Qin Dynasty was said to be about to fall, rumors spread, the most famous of which were two prophecies.
One is a messenger who gave a jade from a stranger and told Zulong that he would die this year.
One is that when the First Emperor was patrolling the world, a strange stone fell from the sky, with an inscription on it that the ancestral dragon died and the earth was divided.
However, Zhao Si was not very interested in such mysterious things. He just sneered and said: "It's probably the remnants of the Six Kingdoms who have done this again. Strange people reported this to the envoy of Qin? Does the envoy dare to spread this matter indiscriminately? ? Rumors have spread everywhere in a short period of time, and I don’t believe it without the remnants of the Six Kingdoms adding fuel to the flames and secretly controlling it."
"There must be someone secretly manipulating this matter and spreading rumors, but this matter is not that simple. After receiving the jade wall and the gift, the envoy did not dare to delay. After informing the superior, Qin Yi was dispatched by a special person, and the starry night kept up. The jade wall had been delivered last night! "Li Si poked his chest.
"This jade wall... has a history. And last night, the observatory was playing fast. The emperor's star was swaying, and Yinghuo was guarding his heart. It has become a sign of Yinghuo invading the heart palace. Now the two things have collided together... Li Si explained with a frown.
"Li Xiang still believes this?" Zhao Si smiled.
"You don't believe it?" Li Si raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhao Si. He saw that Zhao Si's face was relaxed and there was no worry at all.
"It's hard to say..." Zhao Si shook his head and laughed, haha.
It happened that Tong Bing's palace servants had returned, Zhao Si asked Li Si, and the two of them went to the palace together.
Zulong will die this year?
Zhao Si really didn't believe it. With his own aura of raw jade, plus the constant training of the First Emperor, if Zulong died this year, Zhao Si could cut off his head and play it as a football for the remnants of the Six Kingdoms.
As for Yinghuo Shouxin, the emperor's star is swaying... it's just an astronomical phenomenon.
Does Zhao Six believe in these ghosts and ghosts?
Zhao Si actually couldn't explain clearly. Before time travel, he was indeed a staunch materialist warrior.
But now that I have worn it all, there is still a piece of jade in my mind. To say that I don’t believe it at all is indeed a bit exaggerated.
But if there really is such an inexplicable thing, and what is the so-called destiny...
Then Zhao Si felt that he would definitely die in front of the First Emperor.
Zhao Si knew very well that he was an alien, an alien in this world, and a despicable foreigner. If the law of heaven really targets individuals, the first one should not be targeted at the First Emperor, but himself.
The two entered the palace together... Zhao Si and Li Si saluted the First Emperor and then entered.
"Your Majesty..." Li Sidang spoke first.
"Bring the jade wall..." The First Emperor waved his hand, indicating that Li Si did not need to continue explaining and asked Li Si to hand over the jade wall.
Li Si took the jade wall out of his arms and presented it to the first emperor.
Zhao Si looked at it carefully and found that it was indeed extremely gorgeous. Zhao Si's appreciation level was not very high, but he could also see that this jade wall was truly priceless.
"The remnants of the Six Kingdoms have made such a big deal..." Zhao Si marveled, and it was really hard for the remnants of the Six Kingdoms to spend so much money against the First Emperor.
The First Emperor looked at the jade wall on the table and fell into deep thought.
…
Without him, he was too familiar with this jade wall.
In the twenty-eighth year, when the First Emperor returned to Xianyang, he passed through Pengcheng, fasted and prayed at the temple, and wanted to leave Zhouding and Si River. Thousands of people were left without water and asked for it, but they couldn't get it. It crosses the Huai River from the southwest to Hengshan and Nanjun. Float across the river to Xiangshan Temple. In strong winds, it is almost impossible to cross.
So the First Emperor sank into the river with a jade wall and prayed for the protection of the river god. In the next few days, it was indeed sunny and windy, and he could cross the river safely.
This jade wall is exactly the jade wall that sank across the river in the 28th year of the First Emperor's reign.
The First Emperor was certain that he remembered correctly.
…
"Say it..." The First Emperor pondered for a moment and then looked at Li Si.
"The envoy from Guandong passed through Huayin Pingshu Road at night. Someone was holding a jade to cover the envoy and said: "I have left you the Lord of Pouchi. "Yinyan said: "This year Zulong died. "The envoy asked why, but because he suddenly disappeared, he put the jade away." Li Si opened his mouth and briefly recounted what happened.
The First Emperor looked a little thoughtful.
"Ha...does he think he is Jiang Shen?" The First Emperor sneered.
Obviously, this is another public opinion conspiracy against the First Emperor.
There are two key points in this matter.
That is, who is this stranger who gave the jade?
Who is Jun Chi?
The First Emperor sank the jade in the river, and this strange man came out with the jade. There is no doubt that the role he wanted to play was the river god who had protected the first emperor from crossing the river safely.
As for returning the jade, the meaning is very simple.
My husband left the jade in the river for the sake of good fortune. Returning the jade now shows that if you don't receive it, you will not be able to obtain blessings.
To put it bluntly, I am the God of the River, and I am too lazy to bless you now, so I will give you your jade wall back.
Then the question comes again. This stranger is not talking about returning the jade to the First Emperor, but to returning the jade to Lord Lianchi.
"Who do you think is Jun Chi?" The First Emperor looked at Li Si after hesitating and asked.
"Jianchi Jun...I have never heard of it...but this Jianchi...to the north of Kunming Lake, there is a place named Jianchi."
Speaking of this, Li Si frowned.
"Your Majesty, if I remember correctly, Dianchi to the north of Kunming Lake is the old capital of Zhou Dynasty." Li Si looked solemn.
All of a sudden, it was connected.
Bianchi, the old capital of the Zhou Dynasty, isn't the Lord of Bianchi just talking about the Zhou Dynasty?
The God of the River returned the jade, not to bless the First Emperor, but to give the jade to Lord Lianchi.
What he wanted to express was that Jiang Shen no longer wanted to protect the Qin Dynasty and wanted to return the world to the Zhou Dynasty.
One more sentence, Zulong will die this year...
Zhao Si listened to Li Si's analysis and exclaimed that it was brilliant. It was hard for these remnants of the Six Kingdoms to worry about the whole rumor. Even if the whole rumor was twisted around, it almost got Li Si, the left prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, into it. They also echoed history in various ways and showed their destiny... …It’s so obscure that anyone who reads less may not be able to see it.
"Do you think this stranger is the River God?" the First Emperor asked with a slight smile on his face.
"No!" Li Si shook his head seriously.
"I don't think so. Compared to Jiang Shen, I think he is just a mountain ghost..."
"Zulong will die this year?"
"Ah……"
"Mountain ghosts can only know the things of one year old!"
The attitude expressed by the First Emperor was also very tough.
You say I die this year?
In this case, let’s start from today to figure out whether I will die in one year!
"Your Majesty, rumors are spreading everywhere right now, the emperor's star is swaying, and the guardian is confused. Is it necessary to convene a court meeting..." Li Si asked.
No matter what the First Emperor thought, rumors had indeed started, and the two things collided.
The emperor's star is shaky, and there are people who are pretending to be gods and ghosts to manipulate the rumors. If a court meeting is held and a press conference is held to clarify the rumors, it will really make people's hearts turmoil.
Whether it was the emperor's star swaying or the Yinghuo Shouxin, it was a major event in ancient times.
"Summon!"
"Of course we will call!"
"But not for this reason!"
The First Emperor looked outside the palace with bright eyes!
After two months of losing weight, the First Emperor is no longer potbellied.
At this moment, his figure is tall and straight, with sharp edges and corners. His beard is thick and tight with dots of white. There is no turbidity in his eyes, showing his sharpness. Standing there with a body of more than two meters, he seems to be an invincible tower. The mountains to cross.
"I will hold a court meeting and conduct a grand tour of the world!"
The First Emperor's eyes were as bright as fire!
The emperor's star is swaying, right? Yinghuo Shouxin, right? I'm going to die this year, right?
To be honest, the First Emperor had experienced countless rumors, and folk songs abounded.
The First Emperor was even used to it.
It's hard for these remnants of the Six Kingdoms to expend so much effort to get the jade wall out of the river, and to be able to pinpoint the right moment when the emperor's star flutters and enchants the guardian's heart.
It can be seen that the other party has put a lot of effort into it.
The First Emperor didn't mind playing with them.
Of course, the First Emperor would not do such dirty things.
If he wants to do it, he can do it openly and openly. He just wants to tell the world openly and let everyone in the world see it with their own eyes. He wants to crush these rumors personally.
When Li Si heard this, his expression was startled, and then he showed a bit of joy.
Putting aside these myths about gods and ghosts, it is a good thing that the First Emperor is patrolling the world!
You know, determining which nobles should be moved in the relocation order is a big project.
Originally, Li Si's plan was to screen some of them through local chronicles and memorials, and then find a way to organize Qin officials to conduct in-depth investigations all over the country to ensure that the list of people who were moved to the imperial order was accurate.
But since the First Emperor wants to patrol the world, there is no need to go to such trouble.
While the First Emperor was patrolling the world, he and Zhao Si happened to be able to follow suit and do this. They conducted on-site inspections and came up with an accurate death list... This would save a lot of time in the preparations for the relocation order and allow them to personally experience the place. , you can also check for leaks and fill in the gaps. As long as the conditions are met, not even one can escape.
Zhao Si was shocked when he heard this. The First Emperor would patrol the world if he disagreed. Is this right?
But if you think about it carefully, this is very consistent with the behavior of the First Emperor.
My emperor is really not good at talking...
However, this is fine. My work of dismembering the corpses and pulling people into the water can be carried out naturally. No one in the early Han Dynasty group can escape.
"Good!" Li Si clapped his hands and praised.
Objectively speaking, the choice of the First Emperor was the most dignified and the easiest way to crush rumors. Moreover, the Grand Tour of the World was also conducive to the preparations for moving your order. The First Emperor's Grand Tour of the World was not done once or twice. He was rich in experience. Of course Li Si would not reject.
Seeing Li Si's agreement, the First Emperor looked at Zhao Si again, waiting for Zhao Si's answer.
"You have to take me with you!"
Zhao Si grinned, revealing a mouth of sparkling white teeth.
(No more. It’s the end of the month, gentlemen, please clear your monthly tickets. To show your sincerity, there will be an update of 10,000 words tomorrow.)
