Xianyang Palace.
On the steps of the palace, the lonely Emperor was kneeling.
He just quietly pondered.
After returning from the imperial prison in such a position.
It had been maintained for nearly two hours.
At this moment.
There was a commotion outside the hall.
The First Emperor of the Great Qin Empire, Ying Zheng, looked up.
Meng Yi, who was dressed in black armor, lowered his head and walked into the hall.
Behind him was Great Qin's Left Prime Minister, Li Si.
The two of them arrived at the center of the hall.
Across the water bridge, he bowed to the First Emperor.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
" I, Li Si, pay my respects to Your Majesty."
"Sit." Ying Zheng waved his sleeve.
Then, Meng Yi and Li Si knelt on the ground.
Li Si was a middle-aged man with a refined face.
However, from the maliciousness that flickered in his eyes from time to time, one could tell that he was not as easy-going as he looked.
He glanced at Meng Yi beside him, then secretly glanced at the Emperor above.
Li Si secretly guessed why the Emperor had ordered Meng Yi to call him over.
Was it the revision of the laws of Qin, or was it about the handling of the nobles of the six states?
However, no matter how smart Li Si was…
No matter how hard he racked his brain, he still could not figure out why Ying Zheng had called him here.
"Li Si."
Hearing the Emperor's call.
Li Si quickly cleared his mind.
He bowed his head and cupped his hands,"I'm here."”
Ying Zheng looked at Li Si and said casually,"
"Today, I heard something very interesting.。”
"Zhen wants to tell you, do you want to know?”
"I'm all ears." Of course, Li Si would not refuse.
Up until this point, he still hadn't noticed anything amiss.
Therefore, what Ying Zheng said next...
Li Si, who was not prepared at all, was dumbfounded.
"I heard someone say that my Great Qin will die in two lifetimes.”
"Prime minister, do you find it interesting?”
A meaningful smile appeared on Ying Zheng's dignified face.
However, in Li Si's opinion.
This smile was so terrifying that it made one's entire body tremble.
However, he was still the Left Prime Minister of the Great Qin Empire.
Li Si reacted quickly.
He immediately cupped his hands with a serious expression and said,
"Is that thief spreading lies to confuse the public?”
"Your Majesty, I request that you hand this demon over to me.”
"This subject will let him know how cruel the laws of Great Qin will be for spreading rumors about Great Qin's fate!”
Ying Zheng casually waved his hand and said,"
"I told you it was an interesting thing. You don't have to be so nervous.”
"But I am thinking about it now."
"Will Great Qin really die like that person said?”
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Our Great Qin has lived for thousands of years. How can we die after two generations?”Li Si firmly denied it.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng nodded in agreement, seemingly satisfied.
"Since that's the case, then Li Qing, just treat this matter as a joke.”
Li Si nodded repeatedly.
However, he was thinking in his heart, what was wrong with the Emperor today?
"Now, let's talk about serious business." Ying Zheng instantly became dignified.
His entire person exuded an unrivaled imperial aura.
"Meng Yi, bring me the geomancy carriage."
Hearing the emperor's order.
Meng Yi, who was wearing black armor, immediately stood up.
From the left side of the hall, a shelf with a map was pushed over.
She pushed him in front of Li Si.
Li Si took a closer look.
This was a map that included Great Qin's Northern Lands and the Xiongnu in the north.
Seeing this, Li Si thought he understood what Ying Zheng meant.
He cupped his hands and said,
"Your Majesty, this subject is currently urging the construction of the Great Wall.”
"But it involves a huge amount of manpower and material resources.”
"Especially those hundreds of thousands of criminals.”
"In order to ensure that there is no chaos during the migration, we have to be careful.”
"I really don't dare to be any faster.”
Li Si explained.
Ying Zheng, who was standing on the top of the palace steps, had a mocking look in his eyes.
To be honest, the Left Prime Minister, who used to be extremely intelligent, had guessed his meaning wrongly.
Ying Zheng felt that it was quite interesting.
After all, watching smart people do stupid things.
He would always give her a feeling that he was only so-so and was far inferior to her.
"Li Qing, Zhen has no intention of pursuing the matter of you building the Great Wall.”Ying Zheng waved his hand.
Li Si was stunned.
It wasn't about the construction of the Great Wall?
However, Li Si quickly reacted.
He asked tentatively,
"Your Majesty, are you referring to the war with the Xiongnu?”
Ying Zheng nodded slightly." Minister Li, you are indeed worthy of being the Left Prime Minister of the Great Qin Empire. That is exactly what I meant."”
"However, I am not familiar with military matters. You should discuss it with General Wang Jian or General Meng Tian.”Li Si said gloomily.
This was Li Si's truth.
Compared to the Song, Ming, and Qing dynasties, where civil officials indirectly guided generals in battle, or civil officials directly led troops in battle.
During the Great Qin Era, even Li Si, the Left Prime Minister, who was the head of all officials, basically did not interfere in war.
In the end, there were specialties in every field.
Li Si studied Confucianism first and then studied Buddhism.
It had nothing to do with a military strategist who led troops to war.
Moreover, Ying Zheng had never allowed him to participate in the discussion of the battle.
So, what was wrong with His Majesty today?
Li Si was deeply puzzled.
"Li Qing is too humble. Zhen naturally will not ask you to come and discuss the matter of leading troops into battle.”Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
"However, there are some matters regarding the structure that Old General Wang Jian, Meng Tian, and the other soldiers cannot give me good advice.”
Pattern? Li Si really felt that something was wrong with the emperor today.
His actions and words were all so f * cking strange.
However, since His Majesty the Emperor had said so.
Li Si would not foolishly say that it had nothing to do with him.
"I understand, Your Majesty. Please speak."”
Seeing that Li Si understood his meaning, Ying Zheng nodded in satisfaction.
"I want to discuss with you about the overall situation between Great Qin and the Xiongnu.”
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I didn't quite understand.”Li Si was extremely depressed.
"En, it doesn't matter.”
"The relationship between the farming people of the Central Plains and the nomadic people of the North.”
"Does Li Qing understand what you're saying?”
Li Si clenched his teeth tightly.
At the same time, he clenched his teeth tightly.
He did not understand!
The farming people of the Central Plains and the nomadic people of the North.
It was easy to understand.
However, when they were put together, and coupled with the 'relationship theory'.
Li Si could not figure it out no matter how hard he racked his brain.
What did smart people like and fear the most?
That was to encounter something that he didn't understand but was interested in!
Like Li Si, he first learned Confucianism, then studied the Dao, and finally became the Left Prime Minister of Great Qin.
Naturally, they were the smartest people in the world.
Therefore, he had gone into a dead end.
Even if he couldn't understand, he still gave an answer.
"Your Majesty, are you referring to the fact that Great Qin will start a war with the Xiongnu in the north in the future?”
Hearing Li Si's answer, a hint of surprise flashed across Ying Zheng's eyes.
This guy was really smart.
He clearly didn't know anything, but he still managed to guess something.
Unfortunately, Li Si hadn't attended Jiang Chen's class.
Ying Zheng shook his head with a regretful look and said,"
"Li Qing, you are wrong."
"I just don't understand. You can just say it directly. Can't I just change the way I say it so that you understand?”
Li Si was speechless.
In fact, if it was any other day, if it was someone else who told Li Si about the farming people and the nomadic people, he would not be able to do it.
What relationship talk?
Li Si ignored him.
It was not a big deal if he did not know. Wasn't he Great Qin's Left Prime Minister?
However, Li Si was currently in Xianyang Palace.
The one speaking was the First Emperor of Great Qin.
Therefore, Li Si had to understand the relationship between the farming people and the nomadic people in the Central Plains.
Otherwise, he might not be able to hold the post of Left Prime Minister for long.
Hence, Li Si had no choice.
He could only clench his teeth and slowly lower his head.
"Please guide me, Your Majesty."
Upon seeing this, Ying Zheng, who was standing above, revealed a smile again.
However, this time, the smile came from his heart.
"Then zhen will have a good talk with Li Qing."
Ying Zheng: Yes, as a teacher or something.
Don't tell me, it feels pretty good!
