"Ji Cheng has been promoted to Yilang, and I have also given him a house and residence in Xianyang. I have already written about it." The First Emperor spoke softly.
Zhao Si was silent for a long time without speaking.
The First Emperor's eyes slowly fell on Zhao Si.
"Have you got any resentment in your heart?"
Zhao Si shook his head and pondered for a moment: "I just don't know how to accept it for a while.
When I was out at sea, I encountered a shipwreck and hit my head. I have no memory. I always thought that I had no family, but I never expected that Your Majesty could actually find a family for me..."
Zhao Si didn't even know what to say about this.
The First Emperor was willing to show him the files, including the details of the investigation, which was a sign of the First Emperor's trust.
I checked you, but I didn’t hide it.
However, this matter seems strange. I can't remember my place of origin, but the symbolic meaning of it is so important. It is normal for the First Emperor to investigate. The problem is that he has found his family members by searching.
It is similar to the orphan boy whose biological parents were found by the loan company after his loan was overdue in his previous life.
Who in the family understands...
Suddenly I got a grandpa and a brother.
Zhao Si really has no emotional foundation. The most important thing is that Zhao Si does not long for family affection. Before he traveled through time, he was already an adult with sound limbs and perfect emotions.
Of course, the most ridiculous thing is that the family background currently investigated is not biological.
Zhao Si couldn't tell Ding Mao where the sign with the word "Zhao" engraved on it came from. He instinctively felt it was strange, but unfortunately, Zhao Si didn't have any previous memories and couldn't find anything strange.
"After the fleet returned to the Qin Dynasty, they went to Wang Jian through connections to inquire about your whereabouts. However, by that time you had changed your name and couldn't remember your place of origin, so they finally left it alone." The First Emperor pondered for a moment before speaking again.
"Let's go back and have a look..."
Zhao Si nodded and didn't say much. He just took the file and left the palace with a serious look on his face.
Regarding this matter, Zhao Si's attitude could not be said to be good or bad.
How should I put it? It is difficult for an upright official to stop family affairs.
In fact, from the perspective of a bystander, it is hard to say who owed the other the original identities of Ji Chang Jicheng and Zhao Si.
After all, he was not his biological child. He was alone and helpless when he was two years old. Without Ji Chang's support, a two-year-old child would definitely not be able to survive.
Resentment returns to resentment, kindness returns to kindness, of course Zhao Si cannot empathize with all of this.
If possible, Zhao Si wished he was an orphan. He didn't really long for family affection, but he always had an embarrassment about housework that was difficult to deal with.
After all, he was also an orphan in his previous life.
What if the relative who comes suddenly is not a good person?
Zhao Si has a high status, but apart from being aloof, he is actually very sensible, and is even known as a gentleman among officials. Isn't it because he is in a high position and close to the king but never causes any trouble?
Where is the family?
However... this is ancient times after all, and you can't hide from what is coming.
Zhao Si does not ask for any kind of family affection, and he does not want family affection to become a shackles for him. The only thing he hopes is that his eldest father and younger brother, whom he has never met and has no emotional foundation, will not cause trouble to him.
That’s all…
Zhao Si was used to being an orphan, but in ancient times, it was impossible for Zhao Si to say anything to end an affair in front of the First Emperor.
Historically, Huo Zhongru was a minor official, and Huo Qubing was born after having an affair with Wei Shaoer.
Because Huo Zhongru was worried that the affair would be exposed, he ignored Huo Qubing after their affair, ran away, and completely lost contact. Later, he got married and had children, completely forgetting Huo Qubing's mother and son.
Objectively speaking, he is already an out-and-out model of a scumbag.
Huo Qubing, who was raised by Wei Shao'er, won the favor of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty because of his relationship with Mrs. Wei and his uncle Wei Qing, and was brought up by his side.
It wasn't until he grew up that Huo Qubing had made great achievements and became a hussar general before he learned of his life experience. Under such circumstances, Huo Qubing immediately went to worship his scumbag father Huo Zhongru, bought him a property, a house and slaves, and gave him His half-brother Huo Guang took him back to Chang'an to cultivate it himself...
During the Qin Dynasty, perhaps filial piety was not so perverted.
But as one of the simplest human emotions, Zhao Si knows that he must abide by the rules of this society.
He was a time traveler, but the First Emperor was not.
At worst, just follow Huo Qubing's example and spend more money to maintain a close appearance.
While thinking, he drove towards the location of "home".
Before we knew it, we had arrived.
When I looked up, I saw a tall courtyard. It was very big, really big. It was even bigger than Zhao Si's house.
Zhao Si knew that this was given by the First Emperor himself to his "family".
Zhao Si stopped in front of the main entrance. Seeing that he had not moved for a long time, the official guarding the door came forward and asked carefully.
There is no way, Zhao Si drives a four-wheel drive, and those who can drive a four-wheel drive in Xianyang have the title of Siche, which is much more noble than Ji Cheng's Yilang.
For a Yilang, Xianyang is indeed full of people who cannot be offended.
Even if their house was given by the First Emperor himself.
Looking at Li Chen's respectful questioning tone, Zhao Si nodded.
I only know my life experience now, but if my "family" is not stupid, they should know the whole truth when they get the reward.
After all, Ji Cheng was just a small pavilion leader before this, and the Ji family was still working hard in the countryside.
From being the head of the pavilion to being the chief minister, one can no longer describe his sudden rise to the sky. However, looking at his servants' respectful manner, Zhao Si could tell that his "family members" were not people who got carried away with their sudden wealth.
"Go in and pass the message, I'm Zhao Si..." Zhao Si spoke softly.
The ministers were stunned for a moment when they heard the sound, and suddenly they all thought of Jicheng's instructions, and then they knelt down and kowtowed.
Another official came in and shouted loudly.
"The master has returned home! The master has returned home!"
Suddenly rich and powerful, the Ji family, who could no longer keep a low profile in Xianyang City, suddenly started to jump up and down with the shouts of their ministers.
Ji Cheng, who was practicing his body and polishing his martial arts in the courtyard, suddenly heard a shout and the Qin sword in his hand suddenly fell to the ground.
"Brother! Brother is back!"
Ji Cheng, who was shirtless and covered in sweat, heard the sound and sprinted towards the door with all his strength, regardless of his image.
My body, which was already on the verge of overdraft after two hours of exercise, seemed to be gaining new strength.
Ji Cheng rushed to the door in one breath and saw four cars parked at the door. A figure about the same height as himself was standing in front of the door.
His memory of his brother stayed very far away, and time flew by, leaving only a few vague connections between his brother and the image in his memory.
Plop!
Ji Cheng knelt down in front of Zhao Si.
"Brother!"
