Wang Jian felt indignant in his heart.
The next day, he went to court.
However, he still brought Wang Li and Wang Wan 'er into the palace.
He had no choice!
Since he had already promised the First Emperor.
If he went back on his word.
That would be deceiving the emperor!
That was no joke!
The First Emperor was very happy.
He brought the six-year-old Wang Li and the three-year-old Wang Wan 'er to Zhao Qi.
The First Emperor looked at Zhao Qi and smiled." Good grandson, Grandfather has found two playmates for you. You should get to know them better today. Grandfather is going to court!"”
After saying that.
The First Emperor left with Wang Jian.
It was obvious.
Before Wang Li and Wang Wan 'er entered the palace.
He must have been warned.
When the two of them saw Zhao Qi, they said very obediently,"Greetings, Little Lord!"
Zhao Qi felt helpless.
He glanced at the two of them.
Wang Li didn't say anything.
He seemed to have some resentment towards Zhao Qi. Although his actions were very respectful, his expression was somewhat unconvinced.
Obviously, it was because of Zhao Qi, someone else's child.
It allowed him to have an extra four hours of classes every day.
Even now, he was still brooding over it.
Wang Wan 'er was only three years old.
She looked like a porcelain doll.
Generally speaking.
Girls in Great Qin's era were born rough.
Especially children from ordinary families.
Because he was poor.
He couldn't afford to eat.
It caused malnutrition, and hygiene was really worrying.
Therefore…
Children from ordinary families were rarely beautiful.
However…
Wang Wan 'er was a member of the Wang family.
He had never had to worry about food and clothing since he was young.
When food comes, clothes come.
In addition, he had excellent genes.
He had a very good foundation.
It could be seen that this girl would definitely be a beauty when she grew up.
It was a pity.
Although Zhao Qi looked three years old, he had the soul of an adult in his body.
All these years.
Pretending to be naive in front of the First Emperor.
He had already had enough.
Now, he had to play with two kids who were not that big.
Wasn't she deliberately trying to kill him?
Zhao Qi waved his hand and said helplessly,"Mm, no need to be so polite. The two of you can play here. There are many fun things here. Remember, without my orders, you are not allowed to disturb me!”
Wang Li could more or less recognize Zhao Qi.
He was His Majesty's grandson.
He pulled Wang Wan 'er and imitated his Grandfather's actions.""Here, Little Lord!"
After saying that.
Wang Li pulled Wang Wan 'er to the side to play.
Zhao Qi looked troubled.
He wanted to interact with the First Emperor to earn some lifespan points.
How could he have the time to play with these two little kids?
Unfortunately, it was a pity.
Zhao Qi really did not have any room to resist now.
The First Emperor seemed determined.
He wanted the Wang family to acknowledge this marriage.
Although they had not officially confirmed that Zhao Qi and Wang Wan 'er were going to be engaged as children.
However, in the following period of time.
Almost every day.
Wang Jian would bring Wang Li and Wang Wan 'er into the palace.
After some time.
The few of them became familiar with each other.
Especially Wang Wan 'er.
He seemed to have a good impression of Zhao Qi and chased after him every day.
"Brother Qi…"
"Wait for me…"
"Brother Qi, let's go play in the mud!”
"Brother Qi, I…I…I peed my pants. What should I do?"
"Brother Qi, my brother fell into the pool…"
"Hehehe…"
Although Zhao Qi felt helpless, his ears were filled with Wang Wan 'er's innocent voice every day.
As time passed.
He was already used to it.
..................................................
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye.
Another year passed.
This year!
Zhao Qi was four years old!
He wondered if it was because all his attributes had increased in the past year.
The four-year-old Zhao Qi grew up very quickly.
He was actually about to catch up to Wang Li.
This made Wang Li very unhappy.
It was midsummer.
The weather gradually became hot and dry.
The temperature soared.
Last year was a drought.
He did not expect that this year would be even worse. The sun was high in the sky, and a few steps would make people sweat profusely.
The scorching heat was unbearable!
This summer wasn't too good!
This morning.
After the First Emperor and Zhao Qi had breakfast together.
Then, he went to court.
Zhao Qi sat on the ground. He did not leave the bedroom, but he felt extremely hot and stuffy.
In fact…
He missed the comfort of staying in an air-conditioned room in his previous life.
"It's so f * cking hot!"
Zhao Qi was speechless.
Just as Zhao Qi was complaining about the hot weather.
However, something major happened in Zhangtai Palace.
The first emperor who stayed up late to reply to the memorial.
He was too tired.
In addition to the hot and humid weather.
He actually fainted in the main hall.
The First Emperor fell.
Instantly.
It scared all the officials!
Instantly.
Xia Wuqie led a dozen imperial physicians and hurried to Zhangtai Palace.
Zhao Qi also received the news.
He was shocked.
He rushed over immediately.
He was quite familiar with the First Emperor's body.
The First Emperor was too busy with government affairs.
Many times.
He had really reached the point where he did not care about his body.
Only those who had truly come into contact with the First Emperor.
Only then could he understand.
Being an emperor was not as simple as people thought.
The ones who were comfortable were the carefree emperors who only knew how to drink and make merry every day, leaving the important matters of the country to the ministers to manage!
But the First Emperor was not such a person.
He did everything.
They all liked to do it themselves.
This was something that Zhao Qi admired.
Zhao Qi quickly arrived at Zhangtai Palace.
He rushed to the First Emperor's side.
He found that the First Emperor's body temperature was very high, his limbs were cold, and his face was pale!
This should be a heatstroke!
As expected.
In the next moment.
Xia Wuqi exclaimed," Quick! His Majesty is a middle-aged man. Everyone, spread out and bring ice over to cool His Majesty down!"”
Zhao Gao heard this.
He immediately turned around and ran out.
Xianyang Palace had an ice cellar!
Although the ice didn't form a thick layer this winter, ice cubes would be prepared every winter and stored in the ice cellar for the First Emperor to use in the summer.
Although there was not much stock.
However, it was enough for the First Emperor to use.
Therefore…
Zhao Gao immediately led his men to the ice cellar.
In just 15 minutes.
Zhao Gao returned.
But his hands were empty.
Li Si frowned and scolded Zhao Gao,""Zhao Manor Order, where's the ice? Why did he come here so quickly to lower the temperature of His Majesty???”
"Prime Minister Li, there is not a single piece of ice in the ice cellar!" Zhao Gao replied with a pale face.”
Crash!
As soon as he said this.
All the officials in the court were shocked.
Everyone knew that the ice cellar in Xianyang Palace stored ice cubes every year.
For the use of the First Emperor.
This was because the ice had to be cut in winter and stored in the ice cellar. In the coming year, a lot of ice would melt, and the stock would never be much.
Therefore…
In summer, ice was very rare and precious!
Not to mention the eunuchs, even the wives and young masters in the palace were not qualified to enjoy it.
But now!
The First Emperor fell to the ground due to heatstroke.
When he was in desperate need of ice.
Zhao Gao said that there was no ice in the ice cellar!
What about the ice in the ice cellar?
Where did he go?
Who dares to open an ice cellar without permission?
If anything happened to the First Emperor because of this…
I'm afraid it will cause unrest in the entire country!!!
