Chapter six hundred and thirty-eight artifact to resolve loneliness(1/2)

Wang Xiao did not rush to go, so he turned around and asked the temple servants around him to "go and take that thing over and call the person up."

"Here."

When the people and things came, Wang Xiao slowly went to the Empress Dowager's palace.

The iconic feature of palaces and buildings in the Qin and Han dynasties is the size of the world.

It gives people a magnificent feeling at first glance, even the Queen Mother lives in the bedroom.

At least Wang Xiao walked for a long time after walking the steps.

Enter the main hall, salute, greet and sit down.

After completing this program, the real conversation will be achieved.

"Master, you are very majestic now."

Zhao Ji was obviously angry, with a pretty pretty face and a look of evil, "You actually want to execute the people in my palace?"

"The Queen Mother."

Wang Xiao lowered his head, as if he was admitting his mistake. In fact, he was fiddling with his fingers. "The Queen Mother should have known the specific reason. I am doing this for the Queen Mother's good."

Zhao Ji was so angry that she laughed, "The king actually said it was for my goodness? What's the good thing?"

Wang Xiao finally raised his head and looked over, "Empress Dowager, if this matter is spread, it will give those who are dissatisfied with the empress dowager's reign to attack the empress dowager. You must know that in the land of Daqin, no one can monitor the king of Daqin."

These words directly blocked Zhao Ji's anger.

After all, the power of her so-called empress dowager actually comes entirely from Wang Xiao.

Without Wang Xiao’s identity, what can she be considered?

Those old Qin people who were extremely dissatisfied with her could send her to the cemetery of the former king in minutes.

The surveillance king's actions are treated like this, let alone in Daqin, wherever they are treated as five horses.

Zhao Ji's attitude finally softened, "I'm just worried about you."

"Thank you for your concern."

Wang Xiao seemed to have really believed it, and after thanking him, he began to change the topic. "It's a coincidence that there was a gift for the Queen Mother."

"Oh, what?" Zhao Ji was also interested.

There is nothing I can do about this. She seems to be rich in clothes and food in this palace all day long, and she is surrounded by people when she goes in and out. But her life is very lonely and empty.

When Wang Xiao heard this, he would definitely complain, "If this is the case, you can exchange identities with the palace maids. At that time, you will never be as empty, lonely and cold as you work all day long."

The temples and maids in the royal palace are not as they are performed on TV, just standing stupidly all day long.

They are doing all the work, hard work, and tiring work in the entire palace.

The soldiers guarding the palace will never help.

Cleaning the entire palace, removing weeds, sorting the ground, transporting clean water, dumping sewage and garbage, changing shifts and stand guard, etc.

All the work is for them, and it is basically all year round and has poor treatment. It is similar to some so-called enterprises in the modern world that wield sharp blades towards sheep.

I heard that it has recently developed to require employees to bring their own dry food to work. If they make money, they will take the big heads. If they lose their employees, they will also lose the amount of money they have to pay.

In Wang Xiao's opinion, no one dared to do such a thing even in the Warring States Period.

The so-called humility is like mud.

If Zhao Ji had no identity as an empress dowager, she was just an ordinary palace maid. She would never feel empty.

Because I have been exhausted from the work I can't finish every day, I have no more thoughts to be empty.

Wang Xiao clapped his hands, and soon a temple man carried the flat table and walked in.

It is said to be a flat table, but it is actually a short-legged table.

"Empress Dowager." Wang Xiao stood up to introduce "This is a table that was transmitted from the Western Regions."

Tables, chairs, benches, and benches were called Hu Chases, Hu Stools and so on at that time. However, it was actually introduced to the Central Plains after Zhang Qian of the Western Han Dynasty went on a mission to the Western Regions.

Now, of course, it was Wang Xiao's own creation.

It's just a carpentry job, nothing is difficult.

The short-legged table was placed, Zhao Ji looked around and said, "It feels nothing strange, it's like two tables are combined together. What kind of gift is this."

"This is not a gift." Wang Xiao waved his hand and greeted people to continue. "This is just a platform for placing gifts."

The temple people stepped forward again and spread the fine and wide cushions on the table.

Afterwards, a beautifully carved box appeared in Wang Xiao's hands.

Put the box on the table, raise your hand and open it to reveal the rectangular small squares carved from the same color of jade inside. They are neat and uniform in size.

That's right, this is mahjong, one of the four major folk inventions.

The historical origin of mahjong is actually very early, even thousands of years earlier than the current era.

Of course, mahjong at this time was not called mahjong, and it was far from the mahjong that was formed in later generations.

Nothing is important. What is important is that Wang Xiao finds Zhao Ji a good project that can spend time and no longer think about men all day long.

When it comes to leisure and entertainment, what else can be more suitable than mahjong?

"Please sit down with the Queen Mother."

Wang Xiao asked Zhao Ji to sit down, and then he sat down at the opposite door. He called a temple man and a palace maid to join in.

The four of them were done, Wang Xiao poured out the mahjong in the box, and then there was on-site teaching.

After adapting to the point of being adaptive, Zhao Ji quickly became obsessed with this diverse and diverse entertainment method.

Wang Xiao has never seen a middle-aged woman who can resist the charm of mahjong.

Zhao Ji became addicted to playing and beat until many temple maids and palace maids came to light them with a large number of candles and oil lamps.

In the era without industrial wax making, if you want to make candles, you need to collect beeswax.

The beeswax is not easy to find, so only a truly wealthy family can afford a luxury like candle.

The same is true for oil lamps. You can tell by the name. This thing requires oil burning.

Whether it is vegetable oil or meat oil, it is food that can be eaten in this era.

I just ordered the food and burn it, and it was all about money.

Here, at least hundreds of candles and oil lamps were lit in the spacious palace.

This person really doesn't know how to be thrifty and wants to enjoy endless glory and wealth.

"The Queen Mother." He lost a game intently and put the only gold left in front of him on the table. Wang Xiao stood up and prepared to say goodbye. "It's getting late, I want to go back and rest."

Zhao Ji, who hadn't eaten dinner, was obviously very excited and waved her hand, "Then you go back quickly. Who, Gan Tian comes here to get his hands together."

Wang Xiao smiled and bowed, then turned around and left.

With Mahjong distracting Zhao Ji from the future, she can finally postpone or even suppress her emptiness, loneliness and coldness.

If she doesn't look for Lu Buwei, Lu Buwei won't recommend Lao Ai.

If Lao Ai doesn't enter the palace, then this place will not become a world where Lao Ai has determined his will.

The small trouble is solved temporarily, perfect.

Wang Xiao has returned to his daily leisure life of reading and archery every day. If there is no accident, he will not plan to make any changes before taking power.

For Wang Xiao, he didn't need any excitement at all. Because he has always been flying in the sky.

The outside world is also very exciting, and there are also many things happening.

As Qin State gradually showed its domineering aura of unifying the world, the Kanto countries were all afraid.

Among them, Qi and Yan State are far away and have the most stable mentality because there are people ahead of them.

For the State of Chu, the country has a large land area and a large population. Its own strength is strong enough, and it still has the courage to fight when facing the State of Qin.

And the most tragic thing is the San Jin Dynasty.

It's ridiculous that the three families divided Jin and split the Jin State, which was the overlord of the world, into pieces.

Originally, Jin State was the strongest and most likely to unify the world.

The world war at that time was about Jin and a group of younger brothers fighting against Chu, who also brought a group of younger brothers.

After the Jin State was destroyed, the three families, facing the powerful pressure from Qin State, began to want to gather together again and become a powerful country.

The idea is good, but unfortunately the problems in reality cannot be solved.

A very simple point is, after the three companies become one, who will take charge of the company?

Among the three families, the Wei Kingdom was rich in early years.

Back then, he really punched the weak Qin, kicked the sick Qi, and his head was soft, and he despised Chuyi.

Unfortunately, he surrounded Wei and saved Zhao once, and once surrounded Wei and saved Han again. The Wei State was completely destroyed, and the elite Wei Wushou was exhausted. After that, he lost the spirit and strength to unify the world.

In the words of Zhao State, King Wuling of Zhao, Hu clothing, riding and shooting, greatly enhancing the national strength of Zhao State.
