Heart-to-heart talk

Author: Mengyuanhuyan

"Sending a letter, it's simple. The edict to the eldest brother will be delivered tomorrow. You can just take the letter and give it to Lu Pheasant." Zhao Qingrui raised his eyebrows.

It's been a while since Fusu and the others left. This kid probably misses his parents.

However, it was her arrangement for Fusu to go to Liaodong County, and she did not want her helper to be a hindrance.

"Thank you, little aunt." Seeing Zhao Qingrui agreed, a big smile appeared on Ziying's face.

"Zi Ying has grown up." Zhao Qingrui said with emotion as she looked at Zi Ying who was almost as tall as herself.

"Really? I also feel like I'm an adult." Ziying didn't think too much and said happily. There are many benefits to growing up, and he is eager to grow up quickly.

"Little aunt, can I get a horse?" Ziying looked at Zhao Qingrui expectantly.

"I remember that your class included equestrian. You should be able to get in touch with horses. Why do you still want horses?" Zhao Qingrui tilted her head and looked at Ziying.

"But when I grow up, I will follow my father on the battlefield to kill the enemy." Ziying said with great righteousness.

"Oh, to be honest." Zhao Qingrui rolled her eyes at him. This kid would say some high-sounding words to fool people.

"Hey, hey, I can't hide anything from my little aunt. I want a horse of my own, and I'm more powerful than Wang Wei." Ziying was not upset after being exposed, and quickly looked at Zhao Qingrui in a flattering manner.

"Okay, it's okay to give you a horse, but don't let your studies fall behind. If you do, I will take the horse back." Zhao Qingrui narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Don't worry, little aunt, I promise it won't happen." Zhao Qingrui agreed, and Ziying was overjoyed. Without saying anything, she just patted her chest and assured her.

Zhao Qingrui himself had a farm that was turned into a horse farm, and he also raised several horses in it. These horses were all purchased from the Xiongnu, and they were all good horses.

"Wang Xian, go to Zhuangzi and choose a half-grown horse to send to Ziying." Zhao Qingrui looked at Wang Xian beside him. If Ziying cannot subdue the adult horse, it will be in danger.

"I'll go right away." Wang Xian agreed with a smile.

After everything was settled, Zhao Qingrui stretched his body.

"Why is the weather outside so gloomy? Is it going to continue to rain?" Zhao Qingrui came to the window, looked at the gloomy sky outside, and muttered.

In her private time, she prefers to be quiet, and most of the time, there is no one around.

If it rains continuously, it will not be a trivial matter to affect the infrastructure of Daqin.

I received a horse from my little aunt. Although this horse is not yet an adult, Ziying is still very excited.

This horse will be his personal one from now on. Most of Da Qin's war horses are on the border. Horses are also strategic materials. It is difficult for ordinary people to own them.

He is the son of the eldest son, Fusu, and was born into the royal family. Although he lacks everything, he also has many cousins, too many people.

Although there are several horses in the equestrian class and they are learning, they cannot use them all the time.

Now that he finally has his own horse, he can run freely on the racecourse.

When he was playing with Wang Wei before, he heard that Wang Wei himself had a horse, which was given to him by Marquis Wu Cheng. It was very handsome.

The Wang family had their own horse farm, and Wang Wei often went to practice equestrian skills.

When taking equestrian lessons with Wang Wei, Wang Wei's handsome and heroic appearance on horseback made them all envious.

"Sir, it's raining outside again. You can't go to the racecourse. You'll get sick if you get caught in the rain." Seeing Ziying holding the horse, he wanted to go to the racecourse to play, but the attendant quickly stopped him.

In the sky outside, thin drizzle started falling again.

Looking at the weather outside, Ziying felt as if his enthusiasm had been poured cold water on him.

"Forget it, let's wait until the weather gets better. Bring me some horse feed and I'll feed Zhuiyun myself." That's right, this pony has a name, Zhuiyun. Ziying thought about it all the way.

A good name that comes to mind.

"No." Seeing that Ziying gave up the idea of ​​riding a horse and whipping a whip in the rain, the attendant quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared with the kind and gentle Mr. Fusu, Ziying is more stubborn.

Fortunately, he is not someone who cannot listen to advice.

The rainy weather lasted for nearly a month. During this period, there were not many things going on at the court meeting. What was mentioned was basically the impact of rainy days on infrastructure in various parts of Daqin.

These are all unavoidable. Zhao Qingrui directly ordered that when it is time to rest, people must rest and cannot force those people to work.

The lessons of Qin II's harsh rule are still vivid in his mind, and Zhao Qingrui is always pushing himself to prevent himself from feeling superior and capable of doing anything just because he has more knowledge than the people in this world.

If that were to happen, it would really be over.

After a month of traveling, the Qin army finally surrounded the Xiongnu royal court.

The Xiongnu coalition didn't notice it at first. When they noticed and wanted to block it, they realized that Da Qin's army was too strong and they were no match for them.

As waves of armies were wiped out, Maodun Chanyu became frightened and did not dare to divide his troops rashly at this time.

Even so, they had to intervene.

When they really surrounded the Xiongnu royal court, they would be finished.

The warriors of Great Qin were unstoppable, and their continuous victories boosted their morale. The actions of the Qin army made other members of the Xiongnu coalition even more frightened.

Some people even had the idea of ​​breaking away from the coalition forces and leaving this terrible place as soon as possible.

Those who want to escape in the face of battle are not a good person. They will be arrested directly and shot to death with random arrows to scare the monkeys.

Under his tough tactics, the panicked crowd temporarily calmed down and did not dare to act rashly.

Mao Dun's gloomy gaze swept over the coalition forces, his thin lips pursed tightly, and people's hearts were scattered.

However, he had only taken the position of Shanyu not long ago, and he still had great ambitions. He had been coveting the wealth of the Central Plains for a long time.

However, I didn't expect the big difference to be so powerful.

At this point, it is no longer possible for him to stop if he wants to.

His pride does not allow him to bow his head!

The continuous rainy days have forced a lot of construction in various parts of Daqin to stop, especially the construction of the Great Wall and Xianyang New City. Materials are still being transported from various places.

The rainy day also stopped the transportation of materials, but the construction of the Great Wall did not stop.

Liu Ji was lying in a haystack in a daze, eating sweet potato porridge. He didn't know when such days would end.

The army transferred many people away, and those who stayed to guard the Great Wall were basically new soldiers.

Even if he is a new recruit, there are 100,000 or 200,000 people. Even if he wanted to run away, he would not be able to run out. He would probably be hacked to death after only taking a few steps.

The days of building the Great Wall were really tiring. In just two or three years, he had already gone from a strong man to a bit rickety.

I don't know if it was his imagination, but he always felt that the people guarding here paid special attention to him.

For example, right now, he was sitting in a haystack eating porridge, and a soldier on a watchtower not far away seemed to be looking at him.

Of course, it is also possible that he is overthinking, and the soldiers on the watchtower must observe everything.

Liu Ji's eyes narrowed slightly. It didn't rain much in Shangjun, so they continued to work as usual.

Now His Majesty is sending troops to attack the Xiongnu. He has stayed in Shangjun for so long, and he still knows a lot about the Qin army.

The Qin army will definitely win this battle.

He only hoped that your majesty could conquer the Xiongnu quickly, but the Xiongnu Yueshi and other places were the territory of the Qin Dynasty, so there was no need to build the Great Wall.

Building the Great Wall is really very tiring. If you don't build the Great Wall, your Majesty might be able to pardon these people.

Da Qin's current policies are very good. In this era, if you go back in the future, you will definitely not be hungry.

Looking forward to going home, Liu Ji unexpectedly thought of Lu Pheasant, and Liu Ji's face became a little gloomy.

The woman who was used as a bargaining chip in exchange for benefits has now completely broken away from his control and has even become a celebrity around His Highness the Crown Prince.

Although he is building the Great Wall, now that he has the Di Bao, the news is more circulated, and he naturally knows a lot about Lu Pheasant.

Even the workers who worked with him to build the Great Wall came to laugh at him after they found out that Lu Fei had married him before, saying that he was short-sighted and that such a capable woman wouldn't know how to coax him earlier.

These ridicules made him angry at first, but he gradually got used to them.

He was indeed blind. If Lu Zhi could be coaxed at that time, she would not leave him alone.

If he could coax her, he might go to Xianyang with Lu Pheasant to live a good life by now.

At this time, Lu Pheasant, who was being talked about by Liu Ji, had just gotten off work and was talking and laughing with the little wolf dog Feng Zhaowu.

"Master Lu, as an assistant minister of His Highness, is busy with so many things every day and can handle it easily. Master Lu is getting more and more powerful." Feng Zhaowu praised unabashedly.

"It's not as good as you said." Lu Zhi blushed a little at being praised, and he was also very embarrassed. This guy was too enthusiastic and familiar.

"Master Lu, please don't belittle yourself. If you are not powerful, how could His Highness directly choose you as his assistant minister?" Feng Zhaowu said seriously.

The two were talking here, and Sheng Guanping, who was not far away, stopped in a deserted corner, listening to the conversation between the two and fell into deep thought.

This guy talks nicely, no wonder he can coax Lu Pheasant.

He obviously has a good relationship with His Highness, and they have known each other for so many years, but His Highness does not treat him in any special way.

I sighed in my heart, it would have been better if I didn't always make His Highness angry.

Now that she has returned to Xianyang and has become the crown prince of the Qin Empire, she is no longer something he can imagine.

Although I still feel a little unwilling in my heart, I still have to look forward to life.
