Ever since the court meeting that day.
The Fourth Young Master's Mansion, which used to be deserted, became the most prominent place in Xianyang City.
Countless dignitaries rushed to visit.
It was only to further investigate the matter of the "outer enfeoffment".
Because of this, Ying Mu, who was deeply disturbed, had no choice but to close his doors and refuse guests.
While waiting for the imperial edict to arrive.
They were also preparing to go to Vietnam.
After all, it was a land reclamation.
There were many things that needed to be prepared.
For example, the Baiyue map of this period, the cheap herbs that could effectively repel mosquitoes, snakes, and ants, and the saltpeter that he used as his trump card.
All of this required a lot of preparation.
Especially the latter two, they could be said to be necessities.
The more, the better.
.............
Xianyang Palace!
Not to mention that Ying Mu was currently preparing for his conquest of South Vietnam.
Only Prime Minister Li Si was persuaded.
After continuous improvement and modification.
In the end, he sorted out a feasible enfeoffment system and presented it to the First Emperor.
It was different from Ying Mu's Nineteen Enfeoffment Tactics.
Li Si's External Enfeoffment Law was undoubtedly much more detailed and complete.
Not only did it set out the conditions and levels of enfeoffment, but it also included Great Qin's current system of contribution and farming techniques, making the Outer Enfeoffment Law truly feasible.
Of course, if Ying Mu was here.
He would find that the Nineteen Enfeoffment Tactics he had submitted to the First Emperor was also included in Li Si's Outer Enfeoffment Law.
Moreover, it was very important, similar to the general principles of the External Enfeoffment Law.
After the First Emperor finished reading it, he put down the bamboo scroll in his hand and nodded at Li Si before saying one word.
"Yes!"
Li Si could not help but relax when he heard that.
He had no choice!
Only the heavens knew how much effort the Prime Minister's Estate had spent on this "Law of Enfeoffment".
In the end, the First Emperor was always dissatisfied and ordered it to be revised again and again.
Now, it had finally been changed to a level that satisfied the First Emperor.
This was really not easy!
After the First Emperor finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something.
" Li Si, how do you feel about Xiaosi?" he asked.”
"Your Majesty, I believe that Fourth Young Master is a genius. Not only is he knowledgeable, but he is also intelligent. Every casual sentence is enough to make people understand deeply.”
" Great!" Li Si sighed in admiration when he heard the First Emperor's question.
His words were half flattery and half sincerity.
In the past few days, in order to revise the External Enfeoffment Law.
Li Si had consulted Ying Mu many times.
It was precisely because they had been in close contact.
Only then did Li Si realize how extraordinary Ying Mu was.
Of course, if it was anyone else, Li Si would not have praised him like that even if he admitted that he was inferior.
The key was…With Ying Mu's status, he had no choice but to praise him.
After all, compared to slandering Ying Mu, the First Emperor would like to hear this.
The First Emperor did not respond to Li Si's assessment.
Instead, he pondered for a moment and asked Li Si a completely unrelated question.
"I remember that you have a daughter who is about to reach adulthood.”
"Your Majesty, I have three daughters. The eldest daughter is twenty-two years old, and the children are nineteen years old. Your Majesty should be my third daughter. She is fourteen years old today and will reach adulthood next year.”
When Li Si heard the First Emperor's question, his heart skipped a beat. He seemed to have guessed something and immediately answered, explaining the situation of his three daughters.
Reaching the age of 15 usually referred to when a girl was 15 years old.
It meant that she was of age and could get married.
"Third daughter, fourteen years old!"
Hearing this, the First Emperor's expression did not change. He continued to ask,""Can you betroth me?"
Li Si could guess what the First Emperor meant.
They wanted him to betroth his youngest daughter to Ying Mu!
Was this a reward and favor for Fourth Young Master Ying Mu?
Or was it compensation for the fact that Fourth Young Master Ying Mu was not valued in the past?
Or could it be that the First Emperor already had the intention to change the heir to the throne of Great Qin, and this was paving the way for Ying Mu?
Many thoughts flashed through Li Si's mind, but his expression did not change at all. He said respectfully,""Your Majesty, we haven't been betrothed yet!"
Li Si was a smart person.
He knew that since the First Emperor asked this question, he must have investigated everything.
Not only were lies and concealment useless, but they would also thoroughly detest the First Emperor.
Furthermore, no matter what the First Emperor planned, Li Si did not think it was a bad thing.
Fourth Young Master Ying Mu.
He had seen it too.
In the past, although he was low-key and did not have a good reputation.
However, based on the intelligence and wisdom he had shown in the past few days, he was definitely not an ordinary person.
He was completely worthy of his daughter.
Based on Li Si's understanding of the First Emperor, Ying Mu's performance in the past few days had already gained the First Emperor's approval.
If this trip to South Vietnam was successful…
In the future, he might have a chance to sit on the throne of the monarch.
Therefore, Li Si did not resist the First Emperor's arrangement at all. Instead, he was delighted.
This would be an opportunity for the Li family to become one of Great Qin's top families.
They no longer had to worry about the Li family being like the Lu family of the former Prime Minister Lu Buwei, who would instantly decline after being prominent for a while.
Of course, there was a price to pay.
Once his daughter married Ying Mu…
This meant that the Li family would become Ying Mu's supporters.
They would also become the target of Eldest Young Master Fusu and the other Young Masters, and they would be ostracized by the officials of Great Qin who supported the other Young Masters.
But would he be afraid of this?
Li Si sneered in his heart and did not take it to heart.
The First Emperor looked at Li Si meaningfully and smiled.""In that case, how about I make the decision for Li Qing and betroth your third daughter to Xiao Si?”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. This lowly subject is naturally more than willing."
When Li Si heard this, he pretended to be surprised and bowed to the First Emperor.""I thank Your Majesty on behalf of my daughter!"
"Haha!"
"You don't have to be like this. It's fine as long as you don't feel wronged.”
The First Emperor laughed and helped Li Si up. He then instructed Zhao Gao,""Zhao Gao, draft a decree to confer the title of Fourth Young Master Ying Mu."
