"Am I overthinking things?"
"Perhaps."
Ying Zheng murmured, put down his chopsticks, and prepared to go out for a walk. As soon as he stood up, he saw Wang Ben's red and oily broth, and couldn't help but say,"
"Use a silver needle to test the soup."
Wang Ben was stunned.
The noodles in her mouth choked.
He suddenly had an ominous feeling.
Ever since the First Emperor came to Mount Li, he had always been eating clear soup. Moreover, he remembered that the First Emperor knew about the existence of chili peppers in the noodle shop. Could it be that the chili peppers were poisonous?
Wang Ben's expression changed instantly.
He wiped his mouth with a brocade cloth and picked up the silver needles on the table. He even deliberately put them on the fire to roast them for a while to disinfect them before inserting them into the noodle soup.
One breath.
Two breaths.
......
He waited for a full ten breaths before taking out the silver needle.
It was still shining with silver light.
" Your Majesty," Wang Ben mumbled," I feel like your personality has changed since you came here. You even made such a joke on me. You really scared me."”
"I, Wang Ben, have been through so many life-and-death situations, but this is the first time I've been scared by a single sentence.”
"How embarrassing."
"However…"
"The texture of these noodles is really good."
"It's much better than those soup cakes in Xianyang.”
"After adding minced meat, the taste is much better. When we go back, we can send a chef to learn.”
"It would be even better if there was wine!"
Wang Ben mumbled to himself and continued eating his noodles.
and
He began to learn how to use chopsticks.
If he had only eaten noodles a few times at Mount Li, he wouldn't have been interested in learning how to use chopsticks. But now that he had the intention of bringing the noodles back, he naturally had to learn how to use chopsticks.
Otherwise…
He felt a little embarrassed.
After all, he was the head of the Wang Clan.
If Wang Li, Wang Ping, and the other juniors saw him stirring the food like he was eating with a wooden stick, not only would his actions be indecent, but it would also be a little embarrassing.
He couldn't afford to lose this face!
......
On the other side.
Walking out of the hall, Ying Zheng started to stroll around the courtyard.
The style of this courtyard was different from the palaces he had stayed in before. It was more like a landscape garden. There were a few fake mountains in each courtyard, and a small stream flowed through it.
The environment was elegant and unique.
He would be staying here for the next few days.
Although the First Emperor had built palaces all over the country, Mount Li did not have one. In fact, the First Emperor had never thought of coming to Mount Li before.
Naturally, he would not be in the Cultivation Palace.
Walking out of the courtyard, Ying Zheng saw a few guards standing at the door, as well as maids who were waiting to be summoned at any moment. He took a few glances at them and said,""Where is Ying Che now?"
"Your Majesty, Young Master is in the courtyard on the far left."”
"What is he doing now?" Ying Zheng asked again.
"Young Master should be eating. In the past, Young Master would accompany the Furen to eat at this time.”the maid said hesitantly.
"Madam? Or are you guys?" Ying Zheng's face darkened.
The maid realized that she had let the cat out of the bag, and her face turned pale.
Ying Zheng said,"
"Lead the way."
"Zhen would like to see which family's woman dared to make him reject Zhen's arranged betrothal time and time again, and not just one.”
"Ridiculous!"
When the maid heard this, her expression changed drastically.
Ying Zheng was not moved at all. He insisted on having the maidservant bring him there, and at the same time, warned the other maidservants and guards here not to even think of telling the secret.
Led by the maidservant, Ying Zheng gradually approached the courtyard where Ying Che was.
However, Ying Che was completely unaware of it.
Ying Che was currently in the living room, preparing charcoal and waiting for the water in the hotpot to boil. Then, he would start cooking.
Spring in Lishan was still very cold.
Besides Ying Che, there were three other people in the room.
They were Concubine Yu, Xu Fu, and Concubine Bo.
Initially, Ying Che had wanted to send the three of them out for shelter. However, after thinking about it, he decided that it was unnecessary. If the three weak women were to meet with any mishaps outside, the gains would not make up for the losses.
and
The mansion he lived in was very big.
There were many rooms.
Qin Shi Huang was unfamiliar with the place and people, plus he was used to being domineering. He basically shouted at people, so how could he personally find people?
With this in mind, Ying Che decided to let the three girls stay.
The fire in the furnace gradually grew stronger.
The three women had almost finished washing the vegetables and meat that were going to be cooked later. They had nothing to do for a while, so the four of them sat around the table and chatted.
Yuji said,"
"Darling, why are you so afraid of the First Emperor?”
"Isn't he your Imperial Father?"
Ying Che squeezed Yuji's little hand and said in a relaxed tone,""Afraid? Actually, this sentence wasn't right. It should be more appropriate to say, respect.”
"Qin Shi Huang is very, very powerful."
"The first emperor of the ages!"
"You can even say that he's the one emperor in all of history!”
"He is more powerful than any of the previous emperors.”
"It can even be said that there has never been anyone like him before or since. What he has done in his life is enough to make his name forever in the annals of history.”
"He will make countless future generations look up to him!”
"But…"
"Only for future generations."
"I've heard someone's evaluation of the First Emperor.”
"I think that evaluation is very objective.”
Hearing this, Yuji and the others were surprised.
There were very few people in the world who dared to comment on the First Emperor, especially when the First Emperor was at the height of his power. No one dared to comment on him. Moreover, this person's comment was even approved by Ying Che, which was even more commendable.
after all
Ying Che was the son of the First Emperor!
Ying Che ignored the surprise in the three women's eyes.
He continued,
"The man asked,'What kind of person is Ying Zheng?'”
