A moment later.
All the craftsmen in the palace were gathered together. Everyone was confused. They didn't understand why the First Emperor had suddenly mobilized so many people. What was going to happen?
Just as they were confused, Ying Zheng and Chen Beixuan appeared at the same time.
"I gathered you here today because the emperor's teacher wants to create a brand new plow. You only need to listen to the emperor's teacher's arrangements.”
"After this is done, you will all be rewarded!”
The crowd, who had not thought much of it at first, rubbed their fists excitedly after hearing Ying Zheng's words.
"Very simple."
"This is a sketch drawn by me, it is roughly similar to a straight shaft plow…"
Chen Beixuan took out a very sloppy design, and the craftsmen were all shocked.
If Chen Beixuan hadn't explained it to them, they would have thought it was just a child's scribbling.
Fortunately, Chen Beixuan explained to them and the craftsmen were very skilled, so there was nothing difficult about the curved plow.
Under the cooperation of the craftsmen, after more than two hours of forging, the first generation of the Quyuan Plow officially appeared.
The Quyuan Plow, which should have appeared in the Tang Dynasty, was invented in the Qin Dynasty, nearly 900 years earlier.
"This is Qu Yuanli?"
Ying Zheng looked at the Qu Yuan Li, his eyes filled with excitement and agitation, but at the same time, he was a little nervous.
He had watched the entire city make this curved shaft plow. He had thought that it was some magical item, but in reality, it was just a modification of the straight shaft plow. There was not much special about it.
It was hard for Ying Zheng to believe that the Quyuan Plow was really as magical as Chen Beixuan had said.
"Your Majesty!"
"This curved shaft plow has already been made. Next, we can find a field to verify the effects of this curved shaft plow.”
Chen Beixuan was also quite excited. Qu Yuanli had appeared so many years earlier, so it would definitely bring a lot of luck to Great Qin. What awaited him would definitely be a huge reward.
Very quickly.
Ying Zheng chose the nearest place and brought Chen Beixuan out of the palace.
……
As the ruler of a country, Ying Zheng had countless eyes staring at him at every moment.
Especially today, when Ying Zheng had summoned a large number of craftsmen and left the palace in a grand carriage, the news instantly flew into the homes of all the officials.
Left Prime Minister Li Si's residence.
"Strange."
"His Majesty has just returned from his eastern tour. Why did he leave the palace again? Moreover, he even gathered all the craftsmen in the palace. Was he forging something?”
Frowning, Li Si began to guess Ying Zheng's intention.
As an official, he was trying to figure out the Emperor's thoughts. If he could figure out the Emperor's thoughts, he would die.
However, if an official did not know how to read the Emperor's mind and the answer was not what the Emperor thought, then he would die.
This was the so-called accompanying the king was like accompanying a tiger.
"Master."
"Zhao Gao of the Zhongche Prefecture requests an audience.”
"Zhao Gao?"
"What is he doing here?"
Li Si frowned when he heard the report.
This Zhao Gao was not a kind person. He was a treacherous villain.
After gaining His Majesty's trust, they were rather arrogant, corrupt, took bribes, formed cliques for personal gain, and committed all kinds of crimes.
After the matter was exposed, Meng Yi reported Zhao Gao in public and wanted to put him on death row. In the end, he was protected by His Majesty and remained quiet for a period of time.
Now.
As the Emperor grew older, his body began to show signs of aging. However, the position of Crown Prince had not been decided yet. As Huhai's teacher, Zhao Gao had his eyes on the position of Crown Prince.
Fu Su loved Confucianism, and his mind was filled with the desire to abolish the prefecture and county system and then implement the enfeoffment system of the Zhou Dynasty. This was in opposition to Li Si and the other Legalists who supported the prefecture and county system.
In the end, it led to Li Si and Fu Su's irreconcilable opposition!
Therefore, he had no choice.
Zhao Gao had his eyes on Li Si and wanted to join forces with him to support Huhai and Fu Su in their fight for the position of Crown Prince.
However, the fight for the position of Crown Prince concerned the life and death of nine families. A slight change in one hair would affect the whole body, so Li Si naturally would not agree so easily.
Moreover, he had to be careful.
Although Huhai was doted on by Ying Zheng, he was much weaker than Fu Su in all aspects. Moreover, as the eldest son of the Emperor, many ministers in the court supported Fu Su's succession to the throne.
Among them, Meng Tian and Meng Yi of the Meng Clan, who were both civil and martial, had clearly supported Fusu to inherit the throne, but they were still put in an important position by Ying Zheng.
This was obvious.
Ying Zheng also hoped that Fu Su would inherit the throne.
In summary.
That was why Li Si had repeatedly rejected Zhao Gao's attempts to rope him in and remained as Great Qin's Left Minister.
"Yes."
"Invite him in."
After pondering for a moment, Li Si decided to meet Zhao Gao and see what he was up to.
……
Meng Clan.
"Have you investigated clearly?"
Meng Yi was practicing calligraphy with his head lowered. In front of him stood a person.
"According to the news from the palace, His Majesty went to the Hall of Heaven Influence after noon…"
"After that, His Majesty gathered all the craftsmen and said that the emperor's teacher wanted to make a kind of farming tool. His Majesty attached great importance to this matter.”
"Farm tools?"
"What farming tool is so important to His Majesty? Then this trip out of the palace must be related to this farming tool.”
Meng Yi's hand froze, and the perfectly fine words were destroyed.
"You may leave."
After pondering for a moment, Meng Yi regained his calm and signaled for the person to leave.
"I hope that this Imperial Teacher is a true divine dragon protecting the country and not someone who came to mess with Great Qin. Otherwise, I, Meng Yi, will eliminate you even if I have to die.”
Meng Yi's eyes flashed with sharpness.
When Chen Beixuan came to ask for the title, many people only knew that a giant snake had appeared. They never saw the whole process.
As the person summoned by Ying Zheng, he was the only one who witnessed the whole process and knew Chen Beixuan's true identity.
After that.
Ying Zheng did not reveal Chen Beixuan's identity to the public. Instead, he found an excuse to hide it.
Therefore, he had no choice.
Everyone knew that Great Qin had an Emperor's Teacher, but they did not know that this Emperor's Teacher, Chen Beixuan, was not a human but a white snake that had cultivated for thousands of years.
Meng Yi muttered to himself for a long time. Then, he took out a bamboo letter and informed his brother Meng Tian, who was deep in the northern border, of the recent major events.
……
Wang Clan.
The most illustrious family of generals in Great Qin.
Two marquises in one family, unparalleled glory.
After hearing the news, General Wang Ben quickly went to a pavilion.
At this moment.
Beside the pool in the pavilion, an old man with white hair and beard was sitting there fishing.
The sun was shining brightly in the sky.
Occasionally, koi would jump out of the water, splashing water droplets.
"Father!"
