"How is my health?"
In the early morning, Xia Wuqie once again took the Emperor's pulse to determine his physical condition.
Because of Zhao Si, Xia Wuqi also accepted the requirement of two inspections every morning and evening. Zhao Si also specifically applied to the First Emperor, and the First Emperor himself accepted it.
As the person involved, the First Emperor could feel that his health was getting better and better, but after being so nervous by Zhao Si, the First Emperor himself felt a little unconfident.
I don't know why, but the First Emperor always felt that Zhao Si's attitude made him feel like something was going to happen to him at any time.
Xiangrui's attitude is still worthy of respect.
The First Emperor was very aware of how many changes had taken place in the Qin Dynasty, and these changes began when Zhao Si returned from seizing the ship. The most exaggerated thing is that these changes were not due to Zhao Si's ability, but because of... luck?
"Your Majesty is in good health and has no serious problems. As for the toxins in his body, they are already very small. In ten days and a half, they will be gone." Xia Wuji withdrew his fingers and nodded with satisfaction on his face.
Very good, given the current physical condition of the First Emperor, Wu Ji would not believe it if he said that the First Emperor would not live to be eighty years old.
healthy! So healthy!
The two qi of yin and yang are balanced and abundant, and the body is not half-dead and full of vitality.
The strength of the muscles and bones is even more continuous, and even the blood energy is vigorous.
Except for the negligible metal and stone poisons in his body, the First Emperor met almost all definitions of health.
The First Emperor nodded with satisfaction, and after sending Xia Wuqi away, he began to plan his work for the day.
After the work plan for the day was almost made, the breakfast prepared by the imperial kitchen was ready, and the First Emperor summoned Zhao Si to come in and eat with him as usual.
Zhao Si entered and bowed as usual.
Today's breakfast is relatively light, a piece of meat soup and some soup.
Zhao Si put the bowls and chopsticks in place and scooped up the meat soup with a spoon.
The First Emperor frowned, it was Zhao Si who served first.
"Your Majesty, let me have a little taste first." Zhao Si smiled and said.
"It has been tested..." The First Emperor looked at Zhao Si helplessly.
As the hatred in the heart of the remnant of the Six Kingdoms, the First Emperor has always been very good at safety precautions after experiencing countless assassinations. From the selection of ingredients to the delivery of food to the First Emperor's mouth, there are countless safety inspection steps that Zhao Si has to go through. What he did was somewhat unnecessary.
"Test again, be careful and you're not making a big mistake!" Zhao Si muttered in a low voice, but his attitude was very firm.
The First Emperor was helpless, and Zhao Si had good intentions, so he had no choice but to let Zhao Si go.
Seeing Zhao Si pick up the soup spoon and taste it bit by bit, the First Emperor said angrily: "How was the test?"
"It's quite delicious." Zhao Si smiled sarcastically.
What he knows about pharmacology is nothing more than testing the poison with his own body. He has a jade aura in his body to maintain it, so he can react immediately if there is an abnormality. As long as he doesn't eat a lot, he won't burp due to it.
The First Emperor glanced at Zhao Si angrily, and Zhao Si quickly served the First Emperor the meat soup and invited the First Emperor to enjoy it.
"Xia Wuqi checked his body morning and night, and there is no serious problem. The carriage has been traveling smoothly in recent days, and there has been no assassination of the king. Why is this?" The First Emperor lowered his head and took a few mouthfuls, then suddenly asked.
"This..." Zhao Si did not expect the First Emperor to ask directly.
Although what he did seemed a bit exaggerated, Zhao Si believed that they were worth it, and the historical calamity should still be respected.
"I've been feeling restless these days... Your Majesty's dragon body is related to the country's national affairs, and I also want to be careful not to make any big mistakes." Zhao Si scratched his head and said.
"The bodyguards' catering carts and travels have a central carriage house inside and a doctor's order outside. Each has its own regulations..." The First Emperor expressed his confusion about Zhao Siqi's worrying behavior.
The days before were fine, and even the assassination of Zhao Si in Dongjun was not so nervous. Why, nothing happened in recent days, but he became cautious.
"I'm still worried..." Zhao Si sighed.
"Why are you worried?" The First Emperor raised his eyebrows.
"Don't worry." Zhao Sifu spoke again.
There was no way, he couldn't tell the First Emperor that Hu Hai and Zhao Gao had planned a backstab at this time according to the original history, and even Li Si, the leader of the three princes appointed by the First Emperor himself, had betrayed the First Emperor's order.
It is true that history has changed, but the Sand Dune Coup was also the most critical event in the death of the Second Emperor of Qin. Zhao Si must of course treat it with caution.
The First Emperor couldn't help but laugh. A young boy who had just returned from the sea could actually say something about not trusting the nobles in the court.
But seeing Zhao Si's serious eyes, the First Emperor suppressed his smile again.
The First Emperor didn't speak, and Zhao Si didn't speak either. The atmosphere was somewhat silent for a moment.
The First Emperor lowered his head and continued to enjoy the meat soup, while Zhao Si was caught off guard by the sudden and straightforward question from the First Emperor.
Given Zhao Si's current closeness to the First Emperor, if he really had to bite the bullet, he wouldn't be able to bring down Zhao Gao who was involved in the Sand Dune Coup, but what about Hu Hai? After all, he was the biological son of the First Emperor, and the role played by dear Prime Minister Li in the Dune Change was not so good.
But since the First Emperor asked, Zhao Si thought about it, so he might as well just do it in one step.
We were about to arrive at the land where the dragon was trapped. To be honest, Zhao Si didn't trust anyone, so he simply refused to do anything. Zhao Si had to bite the bullet and speak.
"Your Majesty, I take the liberty to..." Zhao Si organized his words.
"Taking the liberty? There's no need to talk about it." The First Emperor didn't even raise his head.
"Your Majesty, you might as well listen..." Zhao Si was choked by the First Emperor, but now Zhao Si's face has obviously become much thicker, which does not affect his continued performance.
"Say it." The First Emperor put down his spoon and looked at Zhao Si.
"In the next period of time, can I coordinate the catering car and travel of His Majesty's guards?" Zhao Si asked this presumptuous request.
Very presumptuous indeed.
Guards, food, carriages and travel are managed separately by Lang Zhongling and Zhongche Mansion, with different responsibilities and powers.
But after all the talk had come to this point, Zhao Si was really worried. After thinking about it, he took the initiative to ask the First Emperor and asked for all these powers temporarily. At least he could safely pass through the sand dunes first.
The First Emperor looked at Zhao Si with doubts in his eyes.
"Can!"
The First Emperor finally nodded.
These four matters related to the life and safety of the First Emperor have always been jointly participated by both internal and external parties. No department has ever been able to participate alone. The purpose is to separate checks and balances to ensure the safety of the First Emperor.
Zhao Si was extremely bold to make this request.
It is really risky for the emperor to have these four powers under the control of one person.
Neither Meng Yi nor Zhao Gao had ever received such an honor, and they did not dare to mention such a thing at all, let alone use lame reasons like not trusting others.
You don’t trust others so you choose to take power yourself, right?
The First Emperor must not consider letting you go?
The First Emperor thought about it, and he was indeed relieved about Zhao Si.
Zhao Si was overjoyed when he got the First Emperor's promise.
He had already made a decision. In the next few days, he would personally investigate the First Emperor's travels to avoid any risk of assassination. Zhao Si even planned to make the First Emperor's food himself and bring it to the First Emperor in person to make a guest appearance. The royal kitchen prevented the First Emperor from any risk of food poisoning.
The First Emperor's bodyguard, Zhao Si, also had to be personally selected and managed, and went into battle in person.
The main thing is a foolproof one!
After enjoying breakfast with the First Emperor, Zhao Shilang finally started to get busy with his own affairs.
Once the power is in hand...
Zhao Si began to get busy with all the safety issues of the First Emperor.
The First Emperor, after Zhao Si left, fell into deep thought.
Having said that, this is the first time that Zhao Si has taken the initiative to ask for power.
This kid has quite a big appetite, and he directly took over the authority of Lang Zhongling and CRRC.
"Zhongche Mansion, Lang Zhongling, who are Zhao Si worried about?" The First Emperor rubbed his brows and began to think seriously.
Zhao Gao and Hu Hai, these two names jumped to the heart of the First Emperor again.
Why is this kid Zhao Si so concerned about his diet and travel?
The First Emperor frowned and took the map.
"dune?"
Next, the place where the First Emperor was about to arrive was the sand dunes.
"If I remember correctly, there was a palace coup here."
The First Emperor frowned and fell into thought.
During the period of King Zhao Huiwen, King Huiwen and his father King Wuling of Zhao visited the sand dunes and lived in two palaces respectively.
Gongzi Zhang, the eldest son of King Wuling of Zhao and the elder brother of King Huiwen, believed that the time had come and launched a coup in Shaqiu.
In the end, King Huiwen won a comprehensive victory.
Gongzi Zhang was killed, and King Wuling of Zhao starved to death.
Objectively speaking, this is really a place where dragons fell.
King Zhao Wuling was also considered a hero of his generation, but he was starved to death in the sand dunes, which cast a gloomy color on the sand dunes.
But, what does this have to do with myself?
Why is Zhao Si so crazy again?
Even asking Xia Wuqie to check his body every day?
My body is obviously not strong enough.
And Zhao Gao, why is Zhao Si so worried about CRRC?
Zhao Si obviously had nothing to do with Zhao Gao.
Recalling Zhao Gao's frequent actions before, the First Emperor frowned slightly. In a sense, what Zhao Si did seemed reasonable?
No, I was just taking precautions, but Zhao Si seemed to be sure that something would happen in the next few days.
What will happen?
The First Emperor's face was solemn, his brain was spinning rapidly, and combined with Zhao Gao's abnormalities and Zhao Si's various weird behaviors, he suddenly realized something, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Calling Xia Wuji!"
The First Emperor had already made up his mind.
He glanced at the frame of the car. Although there was a curtain, the First Emperor knew that Zhao Si was driving for him.
Since this guy doesn't speak fluently, he can only give a hard time to my Minister Zhao.
