Chapter 116 Section 2 Mausoleum Repair

Regarding warlocks, the ministers of the DPRK and China deeply hated them to confuse the public and disrupt the government, and had long held a repulsive attitude.Therefore, since the order of the pit warlock was issued, they not only did not remonstrate, but secretly cheered in their hearts.Only the young master Fusu stood up, pleaded for the warlock, and persuaded Yingzheng to forgive him. The son Fusu is the eldest son of Yingzheng and the future successor of the empire. He was twenty-eight years old at the time, with a benevolent nature and a Confucian style.Prior to this, Fusu had directly admonished Yingzheng several times, and openly raised objections to many of Yingzheng's decisions.Although Yingzheng was quite dissatisfied with Fusu's repeated crimes, but after all, he was his own flesh and blood, so he always tolerated it and did not punish him.

But this time, Fusu put forward a wrong suggestion at the wrong time, which finally angered Yingzheng completely. Ying Zheng called Fu Su to him and was furious. You kid, why are you always fighting against me?People say I am cruel, but you are benevolent.Do you know where your reputation for benevolence comes from?It is because you like to show off and sing against me in everything, so the people like you and praise you.You get caught by them.They use the false name of benevolence to easily fascinate you.So, you intensify and become more vigorous, and you remonstrate again and again, all the good things belong to you, and all the bad things belong to me.do you know what you are doingYou are being used by the people without knowing it.

Is it wise to fight against me?Ridiculous, ridiculous.I tell you the truth, the people are afraid of me, but they see that you are weak and incompetent, easy to bully.Let me ask you, how will you govern the country in the future?Does everything follow the common people?Could it be that in order to covet their praise, they are afraid of the people?If this is the case, after I die, the imperial decrees and regulations will not be overthrown by you beyond recognition!The empire is still in my hands, why are you in a hurry, there is a time when you are the master of the house.Don't stay in Xianyang, go north to Shangjun and supervise the army for Meng Tian, ​​so you can think about it.

Fusu was terrified, crawled forward, embraced Yingzheng's feet, and wept, "My child is willing to always serve His Majesty, and dare not travel far away from His Majesty." Ying Zheng made up his mind, waved his hand and said, "It's easy to get bored when you see too much love, and easy to change when you see little love. But if you love each other often, you will see each other often. You go to Shangjun, if I want to see you, there will be an imperial edict to call me. " Fusu didn't dare to disobey his orders, so he had no choice but to thank him and leave.But this time he left, staying in the borderlands, far away from Xianyang, and being blocked from hearing, had already laid the groundwork for the collapse of the empire.Here and press no table.

Around Ying Zheng, there were still a large number of warlocks gathered at this time.Anyway, let's keep it, and don't care about the little cost.As for Cheng Xian's immortality, Ying Zheng was already disheartened. Sensing the impermanence of life, and fearing the indefiniteness of withering, Ying Zheng began to arrange funeral affairs in advance.Among the many funeral affairs, the most urgent thing is to build a mausoleum for himself.That is his destination underground, where he will sleep forever for billions of years. In fact, according to the tradition, as early as when Ying Zheng came to the throne, his mausoleum had already started construction in Lishan at the same time.However, the start of the work belongs to the start of the work, but it has not really stepped up.Especially in the days when Ying Zheng firmly believed that he would become immortal, the mausoleum project had almost come to a standstill.That's right, if you can really become a fairy and never die, what's the use of a mausoleum?

Now for Ying Zheng, death is no longer a concept, but has become a reality.The construction of the mausoleum became the number one project of the empire. Yingzheng's emphasis on the mausoleum can be seen from the person in charge of the mausoleum project he appointed.He chose Prime Minister Li Si, the second in command of the empire.The construction of the mausoleum is related to his enjoyment after death, so naturally it must be handed over to his most trusted person. After receiving the edict, Li Si let out a long sigh and was speechless for a long time.Through the edict, he seemed to have glimpsed into Ying Zheng's desolate and frightened heart.The supreme emperor of the empire has lost his vigor and heroism, and has reluctantly bowed his head to fate and death.

Building a mausoleum for the emperor is a kind of honor, but also a kind of pressure.Moreover, once the mausoleum is completed and Ying Zheng moves in, there will be no chance to make modifications and adjustments.Naturally, Li Si didn't dare to be negligent, and he wanted everything to be perfect, even if it cost the empire material resources and manpower, he would not hesitate. In order to build the mausoleum, there were as many as 720,000 craftsmen alone, all of whom were imprisoned in the hidden palace.He also dug stones from Beishan to make stone coffins.The collection of materials goes as far as Shu, Chu and other places.

Under the auspices of Li Si, the project progressed smoothly.Soon, Li Si wrote a letter and said, "Prime Minister Si Mo said to death: The 720,000 subordinates and apprentices who governed the Lishan Mountain are so deep that they can't be drilled in, burned without burning, knocked into the air, and look like heaven." Ying Zhengzhi said: "If you drill it, you can't penetrate it, if you burn it, you can't burn it, and it will stop if you walk three hundred feet to the side." Having said that, as the saying goes, what you are afraid of will come.When Ying Zheng began to fear death, the series of events that followed made his fear even more extreme.
