After Ancestral Dragon finished arranging the military affairs of sending troops to the Xiongnu, he went to find Qin Xiao after retiring from court.
Qin Xiao's manor was bestowed by the Ancestral Dragon. The Ancestral Dragon naturally knew Qin Xiao's location.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw Qin Xiao sweeping the floor at the door.
"Sir is so relaxed. He's sweeping the floor alone in such a big house. Doesn't Sir have anything important to deal with?”
"This one is really envious of Mister's life.”
"I wonder if Sir is doing well in the Lishan Mausoleum project?”
Hearing this, Qin Xiao immediately put down the broom in his hand.
This big guy had really played him like a monkey.
Qin Shihuang's Lishan Mausoleum Project was contracted to me just like that. Who is this big guy?
Even Qin Shihuang's father wouldn't be able to do this.
Qin Xiao cupped his hands at Ying Zheng.
"What a great tree. It's just nice to enjoy the shade below.”
Among them, Qin Xiao's words had a hidden meaning and did not make the matter clear. Naturally, it made the Ancestral Dragon slightly embarrassed.
The Ancestral Dragon felt that it was not the right time to reveal his identity to Qin Xiao. After all, Qin Xiao still had many trump cards that he had yet to reveal. If he exposed his identity, it would not be beneficial to Great Qin.
At this moment, Qin Xiao said with a faint smile.
"You're really good at hiding. You're still not telling the truth at this time.”
It seemed that Qin Xiao already knew everything, so Ying Zheng could not say anything more!
After all, he was also the ruler of a country. Lying to Qin Xiao was not suitable for his identity.
The atmosphere suddenly became very awkward. Ying Zheng paused and said,"
"Sir, don't blame me. I can't do anything about it. Why don't you change the project and give up a lucrative position?”
Seeing that Ying Zheng had already apologized, Qin Xiao shook his head and said.
"Forget about getting a lucrative job. Great Qin doesn't have much money and food right now, so even if it's a lucrative job, you won't be able to get much out of it!”
Ancestral Dragon was also very helpless at this time. What was done was done. There was no other way. After all, he had lied to Qin Xiao and wanted to compensate him, but he rejected him again.
At this moment, Emperor Ying Zheng felt that Qin Xiao seemed to be angry with him. After all, he had to spend a long time with Qin Xiao, and there were still many national affairs that he needed to ask for his opinion.
If Qin Xiao was really angry with him, that would really not be good.
As the saying went, there was no need to offend Qin Xiao.
"Sir, I really don't want to deceive you. It's just that due to my identity, it's really inconvenient for me to appear!”
"Since Sir already knows my identity, We will no longer hide it. We can promise Sir that as long as it is Great Qin, you can take up any position that you are interested in. We will definitely keep our promise!”
Qin Xiao didn't mind since he had already said this. He waved his hand and said.
"This one has already promised Your Majesty to help Your Majesty build the Mount Li Tomb. This one will definitely complete this matter!”
"Moreover, building a tomb will save time and effort, and it will be a huge saving for Great Qin's strength!”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng nodded earnestly.
Just then, Li Si rushed in from outside.
"Official, there's something at home. Official, you should go home quickly!”
At this moment, Ying Zheng and Qin Xiao had already revealed their trump cards. When Li Si came in and said this, Ying Zheng and Qin Xiao immediately felt awkward.
The First Emperor Ying Zheng said to Li Si with a red face.
"Sir has already seen through my identity. There's no need for me to hide anymore. If you have anything to say, just say it directly!”
When Li Si saw this, he was shocked.
First Emperor Ying Zheng was a noble man, so how could he expose his identity?
However, it was normal for Sir to be able to see through his identity as an otherworldly expert. If he could not see through it, it meant that Sir was still lacking in experience.
Li Si nodded.
"Before reporting to Your Majesty, the plague was rampant, and the people were in dire straits. There were a large number of refugees, and the land was barren!”
"It is precisely because of this that the grain production this year has greatly decreased!”
"I'm afraid it'll be very difficult to gather three months 'worth of rations in a short period of time. We won't be able to pacify the Xiongnu in one fell swoop!”
When the First Emperor heard this, he was furious.
"How dare Great Qin not have enough money and food for the army?”
"Our Great Qin army has swept through the world and has never met an opponent. Today, we actually fell for food supplies.”
"Li Si, don't bother me with this kind of problem. Quickly solve it. The problem of rations must be solved within a month. If you delay the departure of the army and lose the opportunity, I'll ask you!”
Seeing that Qin Shihuang, Ying Zheng, was truly enraged, Li Si immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
Even though Li Si was the Prime Minister, the problem of rations was not something that could be solved easily.
After all, the areas where the plague was rampant were all areas with high food production.
It was precisely because of the reduction in production in these high-yield areas that the autumn grain could not be harvested.
Without a source of water, there was no way to solve the fire without firewood.
Even if you had three heads and six arms, you wouldn't be able to solve it.
However, Li Si knew very well that this Qin Emperor, Ying Zheng, was a man of his word. If he hesitated and did not agree, he would be in deep trouble.
Li Si cupped his hands.
"I accept the decree. I will definitely complete the collection of military rations within a month!”
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty!"
In fact, the First Emperor Ying Zheng said that he did not want to get involved in this matter, but in fact, he was more anxious than anyone else.
Now that Li Si had promised the First Emperor Ying Zheng, he felt a little relieved.
Then, Li Si looked at First Emperor Ying Zheng and said loudly.
"Your Majesty, there are still some military affairs in the palace that need to be resolved by Your Majesty!”
"Your Majesty, please return to the palace quickly!"
Originally, First Emperor Ying Zheng wanted to have a long talk with Qin Xiao.
However, Li Si had already chased him all the way here from Xianyang Palace.
The First Emperor could only agree to Li Si's request.
"I understand. I'll return to the palace with you now!”
First Emperor Ying Zheng hurriedly bid farewell to Qin Xiao, and then returned to the palace.
However, Qin Xiao had heard all of this conversation, and he had also secretly noted down these things, helping First Emperor Ying Zheng to find a solution.
