Chapter 45: This is a Good Text
Several days later.
In Xianyang Palace.
"Thinking back to Yan Dan, when Concubine Yan first got married, she was so beautiful. With feather fan and turban, when talking and laughing, the oars were reduced to ashes. I'm lost in my own country. I'm so sentimental that I should laugh at me. I've long had gray hair. Life is like a dream, a statue of the moon in the river.”
Ying Zheng was holding a bamboo slip in his hand, and was reading it with deep emotions.
Ying Zilong, who was sitting opposite him, widened his eyes.
He did not expect Ying Zheng to recite the song that he had adapted,'Memories of Red Cliff'.
"Good poem! Good poem!"
After the recital, Ying Zheng could not help but exclaim.
Meng Tian, who was standing beside Ying Zheng, could not help but exclaim,"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is truly talented.”
"Hehehehe, you flatter me.”
Ying Zilong smiled awkwardly. It was an adaptation of a Song poem, and it was so inappropriate.
It was really awkward to receive so many compliments.
Ying Zheng's expression suddenly turned serious,"
"How can you write about people from other countries in this masterpiece?”
"Hmm?"
Ying Zilong's sharp eyebrows slightly raised, not understanding what Ying Zheng meant.
Ying Zheng suddenly squeezed out an awkward smile and said,"
"Zilong, can you compose a masterpiece to praise my father?”
Ying Zilong was stunned.
Among all the literary works that he had come into contact with, there were not many that praised the First Emperor of Qin, Ying Zheng.
This made Ying Zilong feel really awkward.
Seeing Ying Zilong's expression, Ying Zheng immediately became anxious,"
"Don't tell me you're unwilling?"
"Hmm?"
Ying Zilong's eyes widened. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he couldn't think of it.
A trace of disappointment flashed across Ying Zheng's face as he sighed helplessly,"
"Sigh, forget it, forget it. This Lord's demands are too high. Let's talk about serious matters.”
At this moment, Ying Zilong suddenly thought of an essay.
The prose was too long, so he couldn't remember everything.
However, there was a description of Qin Shihuang that was taken out alone and was still a very positive evaluation.
Ying Zilong's expression turned serious as he said seriously,"
"As a scholar, it is shameful to keep a beard and flatter others, but you are my father. Who else can I praise if not you?”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng was overjoyed and instantly became excited.
As an emperor, he might not be able to make history.
However, if it was written into a masterpiece, it would definitely be remembered for centuries.
His eyes were fixed on Ying Zilong, making him feel a little awkward.
After reviewing the article, Ying Zilong began to recite,"
" When it came to the First Emperor... oh no, when it came to Ying Zheng, he used the remaining strength of the six generations to rule the world with a long strategy. He swallowed the two Zhou Dynasties and destroyed the vassals. He stepped on the throne and ruled the six directions. He whipped the world with a whip and shook the four seas..."
Hearing this, Ying Zheng was so excited that his blood was boiling.
Whip the world, shake the four seas, this was Ying Zheng's lifelong dream.
Before Ying Zilong finished, he sorted out his thoughts and continued,"
"Take the land of Baiyue in the south and make it Guilin and Xiangjun. The ruler of the Yue, bow your head, tie your neck, and hand over your orders to the officials…"
Ying Zheng was even more excited.
After the Zhou Dynasty unified its territory, it was still able to attack the Bai Yue.
This was an unprecedented feat.
At this moment, Ying Zilong's gaze landed on Meng Tian.
Meng Tian was very puzzled.
Why was Ying Zilong looking at him like that?
However, what Ying Zilong said next made Meng Tian's blood boil."
"He ordered Meng Tian to build the Great Wall to the north and defend the fence, repelling the Xiongnu for more than seven hundred miles. The barbarians did not dare to go south to herd horses, and the soldiers did not dare to draw their bows and retaliate.”
Not only Ying Zheng, but even Meng Tian was also breathing rapidly. Her entire body was filled with hot blood, and she could not help but clench her fists tightly.
"Good, this article is very good!"
Ying Zheng could not help but praise him with the power of his Dantian.
Ying Zilong's masterpiece had fulfilled Ying Zheng's lifelong dream.
He unified the world, captured Baiyue in the south and attacked Xiongnu in the north.
What a magnificent feat.
Ying Zheng couldn't help but place his hands on Ying Zilong's shoulders,"
"Zilong, your essay is really well written. What reward do you want? Just say it, I will definitely satisfy you.”
A faint smile appeared on Ying Zilong's face."
"Praising father is what I should do. I don't need any reward.”
"No, I have to get a reward."
Ying Zilong felt helpless.
He said he didn't want it, but his father insisted on giving it to him. Then, he would just casually say,
"Since that's the case, let Madam Hu dance for us again.”
Ying Zheng was embarrassed.
Meng Tian, who was standing at the side, was stunned. Should she leave? He had heard a lot today.
"Uh…let's talk about serious matters. I called you here today because I have serious matters to discuss.”
Although Ying Zheng gave Hu Ji the cold shoulder, she was still Ying Zheng's concubine in name.
If outsiders weren't in front of him, he could just call them over.
But with Meng Tian standing there, Ying Zheng still had to keep his face.
How could he casually let wangfei dance in front of the crown prince and the general?
"Father, didn't you say that you must reward me?”
"Zilong, sit down quickly. I have something important to discuss with you today.”
Ignoring Ying Zilong's topic, Ying Zheng deliberately changed the topic to another one.
Ying Zilong was not aggressive, but followed Ying Zheng and changed the topic,"
"Father, if there's anything important, just say it.”
Ying Zheng's gaze fell on Meng Tian.
Meng Tian sighed and reported to Ying Zilong,"
"Your Highness, General Wang Ben led his army to attack the Wei Kingdom a while ago, but the Wei Kingdom resisted him and suffered heavy casualties.”
Ying Zilong's expression turned ugly."
"Wang Ben is so useless, he's not even as good as his father, Wang Jian.”
Meng Tian hurriedly explained,"
"It would have been easy to destroy the Wei Kingdom if they had only encountered the Wei army. However, the Armor Gate has restored the Wei army to its former state, and they have the support of the farmers, which has brought a lot of trouble to General Wang Ben.”
"Soldiers of Wei?"
Ying Zilong's eyes darkened. He knew a little about history.
The soldiers of Wei were elite heavy armored infantry trained by Wuqi.
Wu Qi led the Wei army to fight in the north and south, creating a great achievement of "72 battles, 64 victories, and the rest were all solved".
However, that was all history. Later on, Wuqi was persecuted by the King of Wei, and the soldiers of Wei also withered.
The current soldiers of Wei Wu were even worse than ordinary soldiers.
At its peak, the soldiers of Wei created a legend of 500,000 infantry, 100 chariots, and 3,000 cavalry, defeating 500,000 Qin soldiers.
If the Pijia Gate allowed the Wei soldiers to regain their glory, they would be even better than before.
Then, the 300,000-strong army led by Wang Ben would be no match for the soldiers of the Wei Dynasty.
Ying Zilong's expression was solemn. After thinking for a moment, he said,"
"Leave the matters of the Wei Kingdom to me.”
