809 The ancestral Dragon has no regrets
Xia ping ‘an opened her eyes and found herself in the palace. She was in the study. In front of her were piles of bamboo slips on the table. A few eunuchs were running around in the room, carrying bundles of bamboo slips from outside. They were so tired that they were panting.
The bamboo slips were tied up with cloth, and it was no easier to carry them than to carry firewood.
Xia ping ‘an took a look at them. These bamboo slips were all books and information stored in the palace’s warehouse. For some reason, Ying Zheng had come today to look at the books stored in the palace’s warehouse. As a result, the eunuchs around him were extremely busy. They ran back and forth between the study room and the outside, carrying the books in the palace.
The layout of the study was very Grand and solemn. In addition to the string of luxurious bead curtains, there were some carvings in the room. Xia Pingan was no stranger to the architectural and decorative style of this room. This was the palace of Qin State. He had been here before.
At this moment, Xia ping ‘an’s identity was Ying Zheng.
Which year is it this year? Xia Pingan was a little confused. He looked at his palm, which was no longer young and tender. It was an adult’s palm with strong, strong, and broad fingers.
Ying Zheng ascended the throne at the age of 13, was officially crowned at the age of 21, and became the Emperor at the age of 39, known as the first emperor. Looking at the palm, it was slightly more mature than a 21-year-old young man, but not as mature as a 39-year-old middle-aged man. Therefore, the time that she was in now should be after Ying Zheng ascended the throne and before he became the Emperor.
Just as Xia ping ‘an was thinking about the time, a eunuch with a face full of joy rushed into the study and screamed, ” Your Majesty, great news, great news! General Wang Jian has broken into Handan and captured the king of Zhao. The he Jade that the king has been thinking about has been found by general Wang Jian. In addition, there are countless treasures of the concubines and officials in the palace of Zhao in Handan.
Wang Jian destroyed Zhao, broke Handan, and found the he bi?
Xia ping ‘an was stunned for a moment. The year 228 B.C. Suddenly popped up in his mind. It was this year that the old general of the Qin State, Wang Jian, destroyed the zhao state.
Xia ping ‘an stood up immediately and was about to leave when a name suddenly flashed through his mind-Zhao Gao. Wait a minute, if this year was 228 B.C., Then, according to historical records, Zhao Gao should be in the Qin Palace right now, working beside him.
Zhao Gao’s information appeared in Xia Pingan’s mind.
The first time Zhao Gao appeared in Ying Zheng’s sight was after the riot of Xuanji. Zhao Gao knew that Ying Zheng often passed by Zhangtai Palace, so he often washed the steps there, which allowed him to enter Ying Zheng’s sight. Ying Zheng saw that Zhao Gao often washed the steps there, and once, when he passed by, he couldn’t help but ask him why he often washed the steps here.
Zhao Gao’s answer was like a teaching material for the workplace. He told Ying Zheng that the chaos in Xuanji ran too deep, and the Zhangtai Palace had been ruined beyond repair, so he had been cleaning the steps every day.
In the future, Zhao Gao’s words were to express his determination to get rid of the poison left in the palace by the Xuanji. Which leader would not like such a person? Upon hearing Zhao Gao’s words, Ying Zheng also felt that what he said had hit the nail on the head, and he was greatly delighted.
It was this sentence that made Ying Zheng recruit Zhao Gao as a little eunuch, and this was the first time Zhao Gao got close to Ying Zheng. After the Qin State destroyed the Korea and the zhao state, around 228 B.C., The Qin Army brought back a large number of beautiful women, precious treasures, and ancient books from the Han state and the zhao state, and kept them in the Qin Palace. When there were more people, there would be a need for someone to manage them. It was at this time that Zhao Gao demonstrated his talent in management, and gradually gained Ying Zheng’s favor, and he began to take up a small position. Such a eunuch would become the main culprit in destroying great Qin in the future.
At this moment, Zhao Gao was probably just showing signs of wanting to make a name for himself.
Xia ping ‘an originally wanted to gather all the officials, but when he thought of Zhao Gao, He immediately stopped. Instead, he asked the old eunuch, ” is Zhao Gao here? ”
Upon hearing Xia ping ‘an’s words, the old eunuch was stunned for a moment. ah, Zhao Gao, His Majesty is talking about Zhenzhen.
The old eunuch was not very smart. When he heard Xia ping ‘an suddenly ask about Zhao Gao when he received the great news that the king had destroyed the zhao state, the old eunuch was a little confused. For a moment, he thought of those ministers and famous scholars in Xianyang, but there was no one named Zhao Gao. However, he had a eunuch named Zhao Gao under him. However, that eunuch was only a small servant, so he was not qualified to be noticed by the Emperor at this time.
“Could there be a few more Zhao Gaos in the palace?” Xia Pingan asked with a cold face.
Zhao Gao from the palace? The old eunuch immediately understood. The Emperor was talking about that little eunuch.
Your Majesty, Zhao Gao is currently in the library with a few eunuchs!
“Get Zhao Gao to see me!” Xia Pingan ordered.
“Yes!” The old eunuch hurriedly left.
About four or five minutes later, the old eunuch returned,”reporting to Your Majesty, Zhao Gao has come to Xuanji.”
“Let him in!”
“Yes!”
After the old eunuch left, a short while later, another eunuch with his back bent and head lowered followed the old eunuch into the room.
“Zhao Gao, raise your head!” Xia Pingan ordered.
“Yes!” As a feminine voice rang out, Zhao Gao raised his head with a humble and ingratiating smile on his face. However, his gaze was sincere as he looked at Xia ping ‘an, thinking that something good was about to happen.
What Xia Pingan saw was a man in his thirties. He had a fair and beardless face, slightly raised cheekbones, no flesh on his cheeks, a sharp chin, and thin lips. He was a smiling man.
Most of the great Qin Empire’s power was lost in the hands of this eunuch? Xia ping ‘an looked at Zhao Gao and muttered in his heart, ” this must be the will of the heavens. Ying Zheng, who destroyed six states, was so angry that he swallowed the whole world, but he was scattered by such a despicable man. Such a fellow, in the future, he can actually point out the deer as a horse in the Imperial court, and even the Emperor of great Qin has to swallow his anger. What a sin!
Then, Xia ping ‘an asked Zhao Gao a question in a friendly manner, ” did your left leg or right leg step into this room first? ”
Zhao Gao was taken aback. His squinted eyes flickered as he bowed and replied, ” Your Majesty, it’s the left leg!
“Oh!” Xia Pingan nodded, then ordered, ” men, drag Zhao Gao out and behead him!
Zhao Gao was dumbfounded, and so was the old eunuch who had brought Zhao Gao here. However, the guards beside the King of Qin were not dumbfounded.
Upon hearing His Majesty’s order, the guards outside the door clattered their armor. Two burly guards strode over and grabbed Zhao Gao as if they were grabbing a chick, dragging him out.
Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I’m innocent! I didn’t do anything wrong! Why do you want to kill me? ” Zhao Gao’s face was pale as he shouted in panic.
you’re not wrong, but I don’t like people who buy this door with their left legs today, ” Xia Pingan waved his hand impatiently, ” pull him away!
Your Majesty, I’m innocent! I’m innocent! Zhao Gao’s voice grew further and further away. After a while, his voice suddenly stopped. The guard returned with a tray. On it was Zhao Gao’s bloody head. His eyes were wide open, and he died with grievances.
Xia Pingan waved his hand, and Zhao Gao’s head was taken away to be dealt with.
Xia ping ‘an looked at the old eunuch. The old eunuch shivered. Just now, he was jealous of Zhao Gao and thought that Zhao Gao was going to make a fortune. He did not expect that Zhao Gao would die just because his left leg stepped into the door first.
“I’m going to hold a grand banquet in the palace tonight to help general Wang Jian kill Zhao Qinggong. Go and make the arrangements!” Xia Pingan waved his hand, and the old eunuch hurriedly went to pass on the order. As he walked past the door, he looked down at the door in fear and nervously stepped out with his right leg.
......
In the evening, the Qin Palace held a grand banquet. The officials of Xianyang were all gathered together, and the atmosphere was very lively. Xia Pingan drank wine and looked at the handsome and gentle young master, Fu su, when he suddenly spoke.
“Fusu, I was very happy to hear that general Wang Jian had destroyed the great Zhao. Then, I suddenly thought of something!”
As soon as Xia Pingan spoke, the entire Hall fell silent. Everyone stopped and looked at the King of Qin.
“I wonder what father is thinking of?” Fu su asked respectfully.
“It suddenly occurred to me that the name I gave you wasn’t very good. Fusu, Fusu. This name is too gentle and weak. It sounds like you’re admitting defeat, admitting defeat. You’ve admitted defeat before even fighting, so this name is not very auspicious. You lost your mother when you were young, and your name is also gentle and weak. How can you take on great responsibilities? this name is not good for your future!” Xia ping ‘an suddenly sighed, his voice reverberating throughout the entire Hall.
I will give you a new name today. From now on, you will not be called Fu su, but Shan Qing. A family that has done well will have its fortune, and a country that has done well will have its misfortune. I know that if the great Qin wants to unify the six countries, we will have killed too many evil and become too strong. The people of the world will hate us, and I can take over the world immediately. However, in the future, great Qin will not be able to do so on a horse. The countries will be at war, and the world has been in turmoil for a long time. The people have suffered a lot. In the future, we will pacify the world and educate the people. To allow the people of the world to recuperate, we need a kind ruler. Remember, remember!”
When the court officials heard these words, they were all dumbfounded. Did His Majesty already decide? everyone in the hall looked at Fu su in a different light.
Fu SU’s face turned red and his heart beat like thunder. When he heard the reminder from the others, he quickly bowed to Xia ping ‘an and said, ” I thank father!
...
In contrast to Fu su, the other person in the hall was rather pale. That person was Hu ya.
Xia Pingan looked at Hu ya and sighed, ” Hu ya ya ya.
“Your son is in Xuanji.”
you didn’t come up with a good name either. Hu ya, Hu ya, it sounds like a disaster. I’ll also change your name today. From now on, you’ll be called shenren. I heard that there’s an Island outside the East Ocean called the East Ocean. There are Immortals on that Island who can refine immortal elixirs. I’ll give you the East Ocean as your fief. You can choose 1000 boys and girls each to take a boat to the East Ocean island and ask for immortal elixirs for me. You can patrol the coastal areas. Are you willing to do that? ”
