Chapter 42 The 40th round of Emperor Xingmeng's Orchid Garden to visit the Palace Mountain

The First Emperor arrives at the Meng Mansion, and Mother Meng brings the whole family to greet him. The every move of Lan Yuan fascinates the First Emperor... The autumn is crisp and the imperial chariot is out to patrol the East China Sea.At this moment, the First Emperor was already dying of illness... The giant was sometimes awake and sometimes in a coma, and Daqin was like a ship sailing on the rough sea, having lost its direction.A group of conspirators are hiding in the patrol team... On the second day after returning to the capital, Shi Huang, who had always believed in Meng Tian, ​​came to Meng Tian's mansion and visited Meng Tian's mother.Earth-shaking changes have taken place in northern Xinjiang. In the past, Shi Huang only read reports and listened to comments.Today, these living facts for him to see with his own eyes and hear with both ears, it is so exciting.Think about Meng Tian and the others, under such a harsh environment, the generals worked hard to colonize the frontier, immigrated to develop the northern border, subdued the Huns, dug Zhijin, and built the Great Wall, all of which are great pioneering works that benefit the frontier.There, cultural integration, economic development, agricultural development, harmonious coexistence of various ethnic groups, and rapid development of the city formed an organic entity with comprehensive development in the new Qin Dynasty.It can be seen from these new concepts of governing the country that the immediate task is to cultivate talents like Meng Tian and Ji Fengyi as soon as possible.

The army in northern Xinjiang was full of talents and staff. The first emperor suddenly thought of Li Xin's son, Li Jian.Thinking about these many things, the first emperor paid more attention to Meng Tian. From this, he thought that he always said that he would go to the Meng Mansion, but he always had no time to go. It is said that the Meng Mansion is old and small, and the princes and nobles often ridiculed the Meng Mansion. ... Discussing with the ministers for a while about recruiting good officials for governing the country, thinking about Meng Tian's contribution to the defense and development of the frontier, the first emperor deliberately left the court early on this day, without wearing the emperor's crown or uniform The boa robe is just casual clothes, which means obviously, I didn't come to the Meng Mansion to show off.Under the arrangement of the palace people, Shi Huang took an ordinary carriage and went straight to the Meng Mansion...

The first emperor looked at this old house that had been inhabited for thirty years outside the gate of the Meng Mansion, and thought to himself: It is said that this house was given to him by Meng Tian’s grandfather, Meng Ao, who made military achievements in the past, and was given to him by his ancestor King Zhaoxiang after he moved the capital to Xianyang. .In thirty years, a new house has become an old house, and several generations of people who are loyal to the emperor and serve the country have been created. The Meng family dedicated their lives, fraternity, and fearlessness to the Ying family. They have never asked for it, and even returned the imperial chariot I gave them...Many princes, ministers, and senior generals are always doing everything possible to reach out Wanting honor, privilege, and treatment, sitting on wealth, trying to exert their greed and cover up their ambitions.These false tricks, the first emperor has long been aware of the fire, but it is just to save some face for them.It's not like the three generations of the Meng family's ancestors and grandchildren who have silently contributed to the Qin State, even distributed the wealth bestowed to them by the country to veterans and disabled soldiers.This is what the imperial court should do, but they are doing it quietly, and they have been doing it for so many years.If it hadn't been learned from Fusu and others, Shihuang would still be kept in the dark.Therefore, Shihuang originally planned to let the ministers discuss the relief of disabled veterans and veterans, but finally thought that it would be better to issue the edict directly in the name of the emperor, so why let those with ulterior motives make excuses.Thinking of this, Shi Huang couldn't help but think that he would have another in-depth discussion with Meng Yi, this time he must finalize the establishment of the inner court...

Because he was not notified in advance, Shi Huang drove the entire Meng Mansion like ants on a hot pot, completely messed up.Meng Yi also hurried back at the right time, opened the gate of the mansion, raised firecrackers, and went out to meet the first emperor.The whole family knelt down by the gate, with Mengmu and Meng Yi in front, followed by the wife, the son, the young lady, and the male and female servants. "The entire Meng family welcomes the holy driver! Long live, long live, long live!" "Free of ceremony! Free of ceremony! Oh, you can do whatever you want, I just came and came to see..." Shi Huang laughed. "Meng Yi, why don't you get up and accompany me to see your house, help your mother up, get up quickly. Mrs. Meng, how can you let me enter your house with you kneeling like this."

"Thank you, long live..." Mrs. Meng burst into tears: "Long live God suddenly visited Meng's house, how can I afford this great gift! I have no wish, I just want to kowtow to Wan live a few more times." knock.The girl next to her was Lan Yuan, which made the first emperor's heart flutter: there will be such a virtuous and beautiful woman in the Meng Mansion, obviously she is not a servant... "That girl, hurry up and help your old man." Only then did Mrs. Meng climb up with the support of her son and Lan Yuan, leading Shi Huang into the main room.A deacon dressed in black waved his whisk to clear the way, and kept Shihuang sitting in the middle.The servants kneeling in the outer aisle, Shi Huang also ordered them to get up and leave, and said to Meng Yi: "I have been to many mansions, and there are hundreds of people in the second gate of the main gate, and this does not include the Waizhuang. Oh, I think it's too troublesome, but your house is quiet! Why do you make it so complicated, it's painful and tiring. To be honest, I usually don't want to make such a big show. How, the family can afford it?" One sentence confused Meng's mother and son, and asked ignorantly: "Your Majesty means... Hey, I'm stupid..."

"I have learned about your family's situation, and gave all the spare money to the disabled and difficult subordinates. The treasury has always wanted to deal with this matter." "Oh——" Meng Yi smiled easily: "It's okay, it's okay, we're fine." Mother Meng said with emotion: "Your Majesty, when the imperial court is expanding its territory, there are places where money is used everywhere. These small difficulties in our family are nothing! It is enough to have a good food and clothing, and a house without leaks. I don't have much knowledge. , only my own opinion."

"Well said!" The first emperor nodded frequently after hearing this: "I am very happy that those princes and ministers can be like you. I am not a foolish emperor. I understand in my heart that your two sons are so outstanding. This mother is setting an example." "Thank you for the praise! Long live the Holy Spirit!" Mother Meng was very excited. Meng Yi was grateful in his heart: "Your Majesty, I am ashamed of you and my mother..." "Don't talk nonsense, you don't deserve it, and others don't deserve it." Shihuang smiled and said: "I heard that your brother's family members are still in Yangzhou, so you don't plan to come back?" Mother Meng took it and said: "Long live I don't know , my eldest daughter-in-law is also a person who understands righteousness. I originally discussed letting the two grandsons go back to the capital to study, but considering that her natal parents have no one to take care of them, they must follow her, so she resolutely refused to come. When I got up, my daughter-in-law said no, our family is not well-off, so I just won’t let me come.”

"Oh! That's how it is!" The room was silent for a moment.Meng's mother coughed twice, Lan Yuan quickly patted her on the back and said, "Mother, you, you shouldn't talk too much, let's rest!" Shi Huang's eyes lit up, and he asked: "I've never heard that Meng Yi has a younger sister, you are..." Meng Yi and Meng's mother felt very uneasy, and they could already see Shi Huang's affection for Lan Yuan.The emperors of the world love both the country and women, but she...he heard Lan Yuan answer: "Long live, the little girl is actually the mother's adopted daughter..." Meng's mother said: "The adopted daughter Lan Yuan was abandoned by the roadside that year, and was almost killed. Frozen to death, lucky to meet Meng Yi and Meng Tian brothers to rescue them back home, and was adopted by the old man as an adopted daughter."

"Oh——" Shihuang was thoughtful, and suddenly said: "If the girl is interested, can I come to the palace to accompany you?" Oh my god!What I was afraid of happened happened.Hearing this suddenly, not only Lan Yuan, but also Meng Yi and Meng Mu's heart sank. Don't...you can't... Shi Huang seemed unaware that he had done a "stupid thing" unintentionally, and no matter how the family No thanks and no explanation, so I went further and said: "This matter is settled like this. The Lanyuan girl will clean up and the inner palace manager will pick it up tomorrow. The Meng family has made great contributions to the country and society, and I have no way to repay it. Let my daughter enter the palace Earn a reputation! Immediately make me the imperial concubine! I have too many things to do, I should not stay for a long time, go back to the palace!"

The people in the black-clothed palace sang along: "Long live, drive back to the palace!" Hurrah, the people who came here have already left, leaving the Meng family there, it was originally a joyful thing to do, but why did it happen? ...the room was dead silent. After a while, Lan Yuan sobbed silently, and Meng Yi and his wife were also anxious and had nothing to say.This matter is too difficult and embarrassing, how to answer Fusu, how to explain to Shihuang? "I will not go……" "What..." The whole family panicked and turned pale with shock. Fortunately, no outsiders were present.Meng's mother said urgently: "Girl, at this time, even the young master Fusu would not dare to do it again... Could it be that you disobeyed the emperor's orders?"

"How could this happen—" Lan Yuan cried bitterly. After seeing off the first emperor, the Hunhuai disabled Chinese army camp also began to move to Yangzhou.The upper county where Yangzhou is located is an extremely important intermediate garrison area that can restrain the three major counties in the north.Meng Tian roughly divides the north into avant-garde, central, and rear. Therefore, since last year, he designated Yangzhou as the headquarters of the Chinese army camp and sent craftsmen and soldiers to build it.Now, the construction of Yang Zhou has been completed, and Meng Tian can also reunite with his family.Although there was one more scorching sun, his wife Ma Lianlian hugged scorching sun very happily and said that you are not only my good sister, but also a good sister of a different race...and ordered her two sons to call Jiao Yang their second mother.The sun is grateful for Ma Lianlian's tolerance, and thinks that he has lost another home, but he is lucky to have such a good home. Yangzhou is a place where three waters converge. Baiyangshui and Sheyanshui overlap at the foot of Qiaoshan Mountain, forming a plateau basin with peculiar topography.The high mountains on the two wings reflect the people here, the mountains are numerous, the water is turbulent, the green is about to drip, and it is a prosperous scene.Along with the army to Yangzhou, there was Miss Pearl. This girl who was a civilian girl became more and more beautiful, and she became a sweetheart that Fusu couldn't leave for a moment.If Fusu returned to Beijing secretly and had experience with Lan Yuan, he should have alienated Pearl, but instead treated Pearl more kindly.As the head coach of Northern Xinjiang, the son's mansion is naturally much more magnificent than that of Zai Huanhuai.Fusu put his arms around Pearl's shoulders, pointed to the tall and magnificent mansion and said, "From now on, you are the hostess here, and it's up to you how to clean up the design..." Pearl interrupted him and said: " Young Master, why are you talking nonsense in broad daylight..." Fu Su asked in surprise, "Why is it nonsense? This is absolutely true, so is there anything wrong with it?" "Of course not." Pearl said earnestly, "My lord, you should bring your wife here. You can't live in these two places..." "Why, don't you want to be my wife?" "Pearl doesn't dare to expect extravagantly..." Pearl quietly looked at the tall gate building, and despite Fusu's caressing, she just said indifferently: "Pearl just wants to do her duty well, and she also knows that she is your maid. How can you expect to be a wife! You should bring your wife here..." "No, absolutely, I just want to marry you, I just want you to be my wife, that is, the future imperial concubine." Fusu hugged Pearl even tighter.Pearl was so frightened that he couldn't help himself, he leaned limply on Fusu, and Fusu simply hugged Pearl who was in a daze... At this time, how could Fusu know that his beloved Lanyuan girl had become the new favorite of his father? concubine... This is Emperor Yingzheng's fifth and final hunting tour.On the day of the tour, the first emperor personally went to the Sheji Altar to worship the sky and worship the ancestors, and there were dozens of ministers and workers such as Prime Minister Li Si, CRRC Mansion Commander Zhao Gao, and Meng Yi.Under Hu Hai's repeated begging, Shi Huang finally agreed to let him accompany him.Of course, no one knew that Hu Hai's sudden begging to go on tour with his father was entirely at the behest of his mother, Concubine Li. The division of civil servants and military equipment, the first battle of the Imperial Forest Army with about ten thousand people, left Xianyang in the east, crossed Tongguan, took the Jingxing Road, and marched towards the East China Sea.This tour, one is to go to Penglai to pay homage to the immortals of Xiandao, in order to seek the medicine of immortality, it is better to find the art of immortality; How heroic and magnificent the majestic posture with head raised into the sea under the rising sun should be. During the first emperor's tour this time, the number of palace maids dropped sharply. Except for those who should follow him, the first emperor asked Lan Yuan to accompany him.Shi Huang, who had been feeling weak in physical strength recently, often felt harassed by a kind of unreasonable loneliness, in addition to his increased desire to seek immortality and medicine.This terrible loneliness, this annoying mood, was bothering the first emperor, making him a complete loner.He has countless concubines, and has many children that he can't even tell, but because he is the emperor, he has never even met many children. On the way of Shihuang's tour, Lan Yuan tried her best to serve him and accompany him. She satisfied Shihuang so much, surpassing all concubines.The First Emperor would often curl up in Lan Yuan's arms like a sleeping child, and Lan Yuan would hold that incomparably noble head piously and let him fall asleep or wake up.Lan Yuan knew that the weight of this head was closely tied to a great country. If one looked into it deeply, the safety of the giants of this era depended on Lan Yuan, and at the same time tied the fate of this great country to Lan Yuan, a weak woman. hand.As a result, Lan Yuan felt a chill that hit his heart, and he shivered involuntarily. "What's the matter, are you sick?" When Shihuang asked, he reached out to touch Lan Yuan's forehead, and found that his forehead was hot and his body was cold.Lan Yuan replied incoherently: "I'm not sick, really...it's nothing." Lan Yuan carefully scratched the chest and back for the first emperor, this is the main part of the first emperor's body itching, Lan Yuan spends a lot of time scratching for the first emperor every day. "Otherwise, you must have thought something, I can feel it." There was stubbornness in Shihuang's tone.So Lan Yuan sighed softly: "Your Majesty, the little girl is a little scared..." "Hmm..." Shihuang was even more surprised, and couldn't help but opened his eyes to look up at the beauty in the car. "What are you afraid of? Could it be that I can eat you up?" Lan Yuan said cautiously: "The great country, the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, why do you leave it to the little girl to take care of? This is too much pressure, so..." "Hahaha..." Shihuang smiled heartily, feeling very happy, and then felt very grateful for Lan Yuan's love. "You put me in your heart like this, so what else can I say! Come on, you also lie down and rest. Otherwise, I will tire you down, and I will not care about you, but I love you." "Thank you, Your Majesty." Lan Yuan lay obediently beside Shihuang. Shi Huang talked intimately with Lan Yuan: "Do you want to be my beloved concubine?" "Don't dare." "Don't dare or don't want to." "It's better not to think about it." "Why, tell me?" "Everyone who serves the emperor should be a concubine. Isn't that out of order? Since you are willing to serve the emperor, don't have high expectations, otherwise you will bring shame and destruction on yourself." After hearing this, the first emperor opened his eyes in admiration: "It makes sense. I did kill a few concubines who had evil intentions. You can really become their teacher. Unfortunately, you came too late. However, I still want to make you a concubine... ..." "Your majesty, it's time for you to take a nap." The first emperor who was talking was already sound asleep.At such moments almost every day, Lan Yuan would feel a kind of loneliness, and sometimes would think for no reason what it would be like when the first emperor died.I heard that many people are looking for the medicine of immortality for him, can he really live forever?Didn't you kill all those warlocks last year? Someone was knocking on the car window... "Your Majesty, the Penglai Bay has arrived. The alchemist Xu Shi is asking to see you." The imperial chariot had stood still at some point.Lan Yuan gently opened the curtains, saw two people kneeling beside the carriage, and said softly: "The emperor just fell asleep, come back later." The two kneeling people did not respond, as if they were here to remonstrate.Lan Yuan ignored them, if you want to kneel, you can kneel, anyway, the ground won't collapse.The first emperor's voice came from behind: "Who is Lan Yuan talking to?" "Your Majesty, there are people outside the car begging to see you. You are sleeping, and I want them to come back in the afternoon, but they ignore me." The first emperor caught a glimpse of Xu Shi, and looked out the window in surprise: "Have you arrived yet? It must be the alchemist Xu Shi. "The people under the car heard the first emperor's voice, and hurriedly shouted: "Long live, long live, long live. The alchemist Xu Shi was late to meet the Emperor Daxing, please forgive me." Lan Yuan withdrew, and the black-clothed palace man After a series of edicts, there was a series of starting sounds of the carriage buckles immediately. The sea and the sky are the same color, the waves beat the shore, and the sound is like the roar of a tiger and the roar of a dragon.The azure blue sea was surging, like boiling soup.When Lan Yuan saw the sea for the first time, she was so frightened that she stood by Shi Huang's side, and murmured: "I'm so scared..." Shi Huang stroked her and smiled and said, "Don't be afraid! Lan Yuan, this is the sea, which has been turbid since Pangu. It was already like this at the time." Lan Yuan calmed down and tried to look at the frightening sea again.A wave rushed to the coastline, crashing on the abrupt and ferocious reef, and the sea breeze blew a wave of spray on Lan Yuan's delicate and beautiful forehead, and she felt as if she had been scalded by boiling water in shock. Someone behind him said: "Your Majesty, look quickly, it's that sea monster!" The first emperor followed the alchemist Xu Shi's fingertips to look over, and there were already several large ships moored a few hundred feet away.There was still a big black guy moored beside one of the big boats, Lan Yuan hurriedly pulled Shi Huang and said, "Your Majesty, what is that? It looks like it's still alive..." "Haha, haven't you seen it?" "Ah! There is such a big fish. Your Majesty, should this boundless sea belong to Daqin?" Lan Yuan looked up at the ocean in the distance, and couldn't even hear Shihuang's answer to her question clearly, so she opened her eyes childishly. Arm: "Oh -- the world is so big, so big. It's just amazing!" The big fish that was caught was not completely dead, the wings and tail on both sides were constantly flapping, stirring up the sea water like a boiling pot.The crimson black blood dyed most of the seawater around its body red.It suddenly sprayed more than ten meters of water column from the top of its head, and Lan Yuan opened his mouth wide in shock: "Wow - it's incredible!" "This stunner has completely conquered us, why can't we go to Xiandao." "Of course, Your Majesty." Xu Shi continued the words of the first emperor, and said like a pug: "Your Majesty, I will hold a ceremony of crossing the sea and east when the Emperor comes, bathe and change clothes, and worship the God of the Sea. Use the most beautiful The music reported to the gods of Xiandao, showing our sincerity, and showing that we are the emperor of great virtue, comparable to the achievements of Yao and Shun. How could the gods not buy it!" Xu Shi, an alchemist, was very proud. In this turbulent sea, apart from the emperor, perhaps the alchemist Xu Shi is the most courageous and conquering person.The other ministers were all standing on a large reef, and there was a burst of chirping and surprise.Shihuang's chest is now swelled by the influence of the sea: his heart runs through the art of immortality, he wants to conquer the whole world, and he wants to borrow another five hundred years of life from the gods and gods.The first emperor thought it was not too much. The first emperor seemed obsessed with being the lord of all things to rule the universe, so he couldn't help stretching his arms upward... upward...Lan Yuan looked at his excited look in surprise, and said softly: "Your Majesty , what's wrong with you?" Only then did the first emperor come to his senses, and embraced Lan Yuan's pretty body: "Lan Yuan, I want to take you to the fairy world. From then on, you and I can live forever and live together, how wonderful it would be!" Lan Yuan Yuan was very realistic, and asked suspiciously: "Your Majesty, is there really such a place?" "Of course there is." Shihuang said very definitely.Suddenly, Shi Huang's interest changed greatly, and he asked, "Xu Shi..." "Xiaosheng is here, Your Majesty..." "How are the preparations for the five hundred virgins and five hundred virgins?" "Long live the report, all these are ready, everything, including food, drink and miscellaneous grains, are all ready, just wait for your emperor's order, and you can set sail to sea." "Okay——" Shi Huang appreciated Xu Shi's ability, turned around and came to Chong Tian Lei Zi, a royal guard handed Shi Huang a torch in his hand, Shi Huang threw it into Chong Tian Lei Zi without hesitation, White smoke and gunpowder creaked and burned. "Boom—" There was a bang, and a burst of fire shot into the sky and shot into the sea far away.Dozens of large ships moored in the bay sounded their horns one after another, as if a war was imminent.Someone shouted the order: "Sail hoist—set sail—" Alchemist Xu Shi is the most alert and thoughtful person in the world today.He skillfully took advantage of Shihuang's mentality of wanting to become a fairy and live forever when he became an emperor, and used his extraordinary intelligence to fabricate the imaginary fairy island like a paradise on earth.Xu Shi witnessed how many alchemists and magicians were killed by the Great Qin State, and some people tried their best to persuade him not to hit the knife edge. Besides, Shi Huang had long been jealous that he cheated away so many rare treasures and never looked back, but Xu Shi Shi came back this time at the risk of beheading, and he wanted to use Shi Huang to realize his bigger conspiracy. He went to sea under the guise of looking for the medicine of immortality for the first emperor, and accidentally found a paradise, far away from the land, in the distant sea and sky. Although it is an island country, the climate there is humid, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and the seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter are obvious. It is very suitable for human survival, but the most lacking thing is people... Over the past few years, Xu City, through public opinion and publicity, has strongly praised that there is a fairyland that can achieve immortality, but it needs 500 virgins and 500 virgins Only by dedicating to the gods can you get the precious medicine. Shihuang, who was deceived by alchemists for half his life, was once again deceived by alchemist Xu Shi in order to achieve his goal of seeking immortality and medicine. strong desire.Therefore, the first emperor issued a special decree to allow alchemist Xushi to recruit boys and girls from all over the country, which became the focus of people's attention for a while.The first emperor did not hesitate to use the Royal Imperial Forest Army to help the alchemist Xu Shi catch the big fish monster, and strive to realize his life value of immortality, so that he can go to the fairyland unimpeded.Now that everything is ready, the only thing left is Dongfeng. Didn't you know that Xu Shi set up a bigger and more risky scam, and Shi Huang and Xu Shi are naturally the focus of this scam.In the end, Xu Shi wanted to use Shihuang to realize his own dream of fleeing overseas. The boatmen on the boat were immediately active, running at the bow and stern, and after a while, there were many sails and masts.Seeing the alchemist Xu Shi put on his crown and put on a pose, he knelt down in front of the first emperor and made a big salute: "Your Majesty, it's time for Xiaosheng to get on the boat and set sail." "Please hurry up, Xu Shi, I will personally give you a glass of Zhuangxing wine!" The wine manager hurriedly handed it over.Shi Huang and Xu Shi each held a cup and drank it all in one gulp. "Your Majesty's grace is not enough to repay me, so you just wait for my good news!" After finishing speaking, the alchemist Xu Shi calmly boarded the raft, still waving to the First Emperor: "Take care, Your Majesty, and wish me a speedy Qin Dynasty!" Longchang Shengtai." "Xu Shi, when you get the elixir, you must return quickly." "Don't worry, Your Majesty, Xu Shi will definitely live up to your Majesty's expectations." "Talk about my great Qin Shengde Longwei to the immortal family." "Understood!" The sound of the lapping of the waves drowned out the conversation between the two, as if a fairy was raving. "Your Majesty, it's late at night, it's time for you to get some rest." Lan Yuan cautiously stood beside Shihuang.At this time, the autumn night in the north is even colder. The wet and cold night dew falls early, the fireflies in the plains are faint, and the fishing fire is continuous.The first emperor was dressed neatly, stood with his hands upside down by the small river, looked at the moonlight, the mountains and mist, watched the water song and fishing fire, stretched out his tongue to lick the porridge pot, listened to the night talk of Jiangshan Xixi, and the fisherman murmured the water tune of Longtan, slowly blowing like .This style is so full of mountains and rivers, like a magnificent picture scroll. Miss Lan Yuan reminded her again, and then Shi Huang moved his stiff body lightly, and said leisurely: "I don't know what happened to Xu City? How far is the fairy island? Lan Yuan, when Xu City turns around this time, I will I want to take you on a tour of the Immortal Island immediately, and you must see the place where the immortals live." "Your Majesty, it's important to nourish your body now, so who knows if Xu City will come back." "What are you talking about, Xu Shi won't come back..." Shihuang stared at Lan Yuan in surprise: "Impossible, he went away for a few years before returning. If that's the case, why would he come back?" Lan Yuan supported Shihuang, and suddenly remembered the scene when Fusu sneaked back to the capital for the last time and they met at night.At that moment, she clings to Fusu tightly and refuses to leave.But now, this giant is almost leaning on her body... Lan Yuan couldn't help feeling a sense of sadness in his heart, how could this happen?They are father and son... She has long felt a small life gradually forming in her body, which was a sign before Lan Yuan entered the palace, and it was undoubtedly Fusu's flesh and blood.This is how to do?Who will he be born in the future... "Lan Yuan, Lan Yuan..." Shihuang always called her urgently from time to time.Lan Yuan woke up from her contemplation: "Oh! Your Majesty, is it too cold?" "No, it's not." Shi Huang was tired and weak, walked more slowly, and said slowly: "I don't know why, lately I feel tired all the time, and my chest hurts so much that I wake up from the pain when I sleep." Lan Yuan heard Hearing his heart startled, he couldn't help feeling a rare fear in his heart, so he asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, why don't you send the imperial physician to you?" "No need. Look at how good my body is, and my desire for love with you is the same as before." Lan Yuan's face suddenly flushed with hot embarrassment: "Your Majesty, what are you talking about! Go back to the palace to rest, how much Rest will allow you to recover quickly." She tucked up the belt for Shi Huang, and buttoned the top of the royal robe with a python belt embroidered with the blue dragon in the front and the red bird in the rear, and then she leaned on Shi Huang's chest and listened to the giant's words. heartbeat. Shihuang gently embraced Lan Yuan, kissed her bright forehead: "I have decided to make you a noble concubine." Lan Yuan raised her head and looked at Shihuang: "Your Majesty, isn't it too fast?" "Hurry up, it's a bit fast. But you have to get this kind of title as soon as possible, otherwise, they will always treat you as an ordinary court lady." Such caring words made Lan Yuan's heart warm, and tears streamed down his face: "Your Majesty, You are too kind to the little girl, and it is hard to repay the great kindness. But this will also arouse their resentment!" "That's different. Even if I have resentment towards you, I can't do anything about you. I've thought about it carefully." Lan Yuan quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, forget it! It's hard for a little girl to enter the elegant hall, and I'm afraid I will lose my sanctity." Well, let you be embarrassed." "Get up, silly girl. For me, this is my power, and it is related to the great cause of the community. Come on, let's go into the house, it's a bit cold outside." At this time, the entire guard team patrolling the imperial forest was already in the hands of the black-clothed group headed by Concubine Li and Zhao Gao. After returning to the capital with a full body, Shi Huang deeply felt that the dragon's health was not good.In order to restore his physical vitality as soon as possible, he was obsessed with seeking immortality and medicine, and he had no free time to track down the purple swallows in black. In addition, he was influenced by the idea of ​​"divine right and heaven", so he dared not ignore the existence of "God", so he set out on a tour East China Sea.In addition, it was entirely due to the sudden return of the alchemist Xu Shi, who also described the Immortal Island very beautifully, which completely shifted Shihuang's mind to the Immortal Island and the art of immortality, while ignoring the fact that Hunhuai was almost assassinated. that thing.Therefore, the conspiracy of Concubine Li, Zhao Gao and others can succeed, thanks to the unexpected return of the alchemist Xu Shi. Concubine Li, who has always been involved in court battles with a fluke mentality, is so happy to face the first emperor's tour this time.Of course, Concubine Li would not buy Xu City, Concubine Li had paid several imperial doctors to see Shihuang's condition, and the conclusions they came to basically coincided - Shihuang was indeed terminally ill.Concubine Li thought that she had mastered the core secrets of the palace, so she pinned all her hopes on the golden opportunity of Shihuang's tour, and made arrangements day and night.That day, Shihuang agreed to let Concubine Li's son Hu Hai follow him on the tour, which made Concubine Li sleepless with joy, thinking that he had taken the first step to success. She convened the first plot before the operation with great rigor, and majesticly issued an order to the people present: "From today on, His Majesty the Emperor must have Hu Hai by his side." No one knew what kind of order this was.Zhao Gao raised an objection: "Concubine Li, I'm afraid it will be difficult. Everything depends on the emperor. You can't let the emperor get bored with Mr. Hu Hai, otherwise it will be counterproductive." "Then what do you think? What if the emperor makes a mistake, and the emperor wanted to make Hu Hai the crown prince before his death, but let someone else take the lead. This is absolutely unacceptable to me." Zhao Gaoxin said, wishful thinking , but said in his mouth: "If that's the case, then I have to resign myself to fate!" "Nonsense." Concubine Li was very dissatisfied: "What are you talking about? I have worked so hard all these years to let Hu Hai succeed the Great Qin Emperor. Who are you speaking for? Zhao Gao, I tell you, Don't you understand the intention of letting you control the Imperial Forest Army?" "Of course the servant understands." "You know what a fart, you have been slack in doing things recently, I am very dissatisfied." Concubine Li reprimanded Zhao Gao severely, and then said to Chang Qingguang: "Chang Qingguang, do you still remember what I told you? " "Remember!" "Talk, repeat it to everyone here." "Promise!" Chang Qingguang solemnly raised his chin and said: "One is to kill anyone who refuses to carry out the action order, no matter who it is. Two..." "Have you heard clearly?" Concubine Li interrupted: "We have arranged everything seamlessly. No matter who we appoint as the crown prince, it will be in vain. You have to obediently obey the orders of this palace. You will either withdraw automatically or die!" Concubine Li didn't raise any substantive questions, so she hastily issued an order: "The following people will all obey Chang Qingguang's instructions, and those who disobey will be executed immediately. Zhao Gao, what else do you want to say?" "Your Majesty, I just want to add two points." Zhao Gao remained calm, and Concubine Li seemed a little impatient: "Then say it quickly, the time waits for no one." "Your Majesty, we only have the Imperial Forest Army now, but are the more than 100,000 troops in Xianyang under our control?" Concubine Li was startled suddenly, God, why is such a big thing... Concubine Li's head is going to grow big, but She kept calming herself inwardly.Concubine Li has long learned to shirk and save face, she suddenly opened her eyes and said in surprise: "Haven't you always been responsible for this matter? You ask me now, who should I ask?" "At that time, the slave only promised to guarantee only three city gates. The other city gates should be prepared early, and they must not let others make dumplings." Thinking about this, Concubine Li is so angry, she is just playing tricks.This time I was in a hurry to follow the tour, these things can only be resolved after I come back.Who knows if he can return to Beijing with his whole body this time?The mother and son have put their lives on the line.I hate this little hoof orchid garden, the emperor almost let her manage it alone. Under the cover of the dark night, the Pingyuanjin Palace held the second meeting to seize the palace. Concubine Li wrapped her head in a black scarf and scanned everyone with a serious expression.Everyone else is here, only Zhao Gao is waiting.This guy is getting more and more shameless, he is late for such an important matter. "Go and see Master Zhao..." Just as Concubine Li finished speaking, Zhao Gao pushed open the door and walked in, hugging Fuchen in his arms, and put on the eunuch's costume that he hadn't worn in ten years.Concubine Li couldn't help admiring Zhao Gao's carefulness, so she asked tentatively, "Master Zhao, when are you going to get rid of that little bitch Lan Yuan?" Concubine Li got straight to the point, pointing directly to the main topic of tonight.But Zhao Gao is very angry with Concubine Li, and now he has to deal with it diligently.He has a secret that no one has mastered, so how can he easily expose it to Concubine Li?Then he said nonchalantly: "Madam, it seems that the girl Lan Yuan can't be killed at the moment..." "Why can't you kill?" "Because she is still useful." Zhao Gao always seemed to be scheming, looking at everyone's puzzled curiosity, Zhao Gao continued: "She can be used by us. Aren't the young master and the princess going to visit the emperor every day, but the emperor But she often falls asleep, and only Lan Yuan knows the details of the Emperor." After hearing Zhao Gao's words, Concubine Li felt very reasonable, so she stopped talking. Concubine Li was so worried that her deeds would be revealed sooner or later, which caused Meng Yi and others to step up their precautions, so she asked: "Who else visits the emperor every day?" Zhao Gao replied after hearing this: "Meng Yi is the identity of the Shangqing. , is one of the three people who can see the emperor at any time without playing. " "Who are the other two?" "Me, and Prime Minister Li." Regarding Zhao Gao's answer, Concubine Li fell into deep thought, and suddenly asked: "How can these two people disappear?" "The slave has been thinking about this issue for the past few days." Zhao Gao seemed to be careless, making one suspect that his composure was all fake. "After all, there are more things in Li Si's place. He has to undertake the entire military and state affairs, and I see the emperor once in a few days. However, the servant has a way to make Meng Yi disappear temporarily..." "What way?" Concubine Li asked urgently.Zhao Gao slowly stretched his head over, and said word by word: "Let him go to worship the famous mountains and rivers, pray to the gods, and heal the emperor's illness and misfortune." "Can he go?" Concubine Li was worried.Zhao Gao smiled: "He will definitely ask to go."
