Chapter 220: Being a state advisor in Da Qin is like a guest in the house
After watching the First Emperor leave with some envy and hatred, Hao Shuai followed a young eunuch and left the Qin Palace amidst the compliments of all the officials.
Under the leadership of the young eunuch, the two of them arrived at a magnificent mansion within a few steps of leaving the palace.
"Master Imperial Master, this is the residence granted to you by Your Majesty. Please come in with me." The young eunuch pointed at the house with "National Master's Mansion" hanging on the front door.
Hao Shuai knew at a glance that this should have been prepared overnight yesterday. It seemed that the First Emperor was very kind.
"You wait here for a moment, I'll go and come back soon." Thinking of the two Lu Pheasants who were still staying at the inn, Hao Shuai planned to come back and take them here first, so as to save himself from running around later.
After saying that, Hao Shuai disappeared instantly.
The little eunuch witnessed Hao Shuai's disappearance at close range, and his admiration for Hao Shuai rose to another level, and he became a complete believer of Hao Shuai.
Less than five minutes later, Hao Shuai appeared again, accompanied by two beauties.
"These are my two ladies." Hao Shuai said.
"I have met the Imperial Master's wife." The young eunuch saluted.
"Okay, let's go in!"
"Master Imperial Master, please follow me." The young eunuch led the way diligently.
Hao Shuai walked into this large mansion with his two girls behind him.
The entire Imperial Master's Mansion was decorated very luxuriously, but for Hao Shuai who was used to living in the Forbidden City, it was just like that. But it was the first time for the Lu Su sisters to live in such a large mansion and they looked around.
The group of people came to the courtyard in front of the main hall and found twenty or thirty men and women kneeling in the courtyard.
"What are these people doing?" Hao Shuai asked.
"Back to your lord, these people are given to you by your majesty and are responsible for taking care of your daily life." As a guide, the young eunuch explained.
"Stay the women and send the men back, or give me some women. I'm not used to having men wait on me." Hao Shuai ordered the young eunuch.
"Okay, sir." For such a trivial matter, the young eunuch agreed without asking his superiors. No one would offend the Imperial Master for a few palace ladies.
"Zhi'er, these people and this mansion will be managed by you from now on." Hao Shuai is still very confident about Lu Pheasant's ability. Apart from being disrespectful to A, she is completely a typical good wife and loving mother!
"Okay, husband!" Lu Zhi was very happy to see her husband hand over the power of the housekeeper to him.
"Listen, these two in front of you are the mistresses here. You must be obedient and serve them well, or I will skin you." The little eunuch shouted to the kneeling people with great discernment.
.
"Got it!"*N
"Okay, go back and take your life!" Hao Shuai threw a golden bean to the little eunuch and sent him away.
"Thank you, Master Imperial Master. The little eunuch will leave first!" The smile on the face of the little eunuch who accepted the golden beans became even more flattering, and he resigned with a smile. Before leaving, he did not forget to take away the little eunuchs who had been returned.
"You go and prepare breakfast for me." Hao Shuai touched his belly and ordered.
In order to rush to the morning meeting in the morning, Hao Shuai left without even having time to eat breakfast.
It seems that I want to suggest the First Emperor to change the time of going to court.
While Hao Shuai was waiting for breakfast, a servant came to report: Prime Minister Zuo Li Si came to visit!
"Why is Li Si here?" Hao Shuai was a little confused.
Hao Shuai had no objections to Li Si, although in history, after the death of the First Emperor, he and Zhao Gaojiao ordered Fusu to commit suicide and established Hu Hai as emperor, which indirectly led to the death of the Second Emperor of Qin.
But this is just the most advantageous choice for a politician.
Historically, he made great contributions to Qin's unification of the six kingdoms. After unification, he proposed a series of far-reaching policies such as abolishing feudalism, implementing prefectures and counties, unifying weights and measures, and unifying currency.
Although Li Si was a bit of a dick, he still wasn't worthy of Hao Shuai's personal greeting, so he directly asked his servants to invite him in.
"Li Si has met the Imperial Master!" Li Si entered the living room, although he was a little dissatisfied with Hao Shuai for not greeting him, but thinking of Hao Shuai's unpredictable ability, he did not dare to show it, but greeted Hao Shuai respectfully.
Made a bow.
"Prime Minister Li, you are so polite. What's the reason for your visit?" Hao Shuai said straight to the point.
At Hao Shuai's stage of strength, apart from giving some face to the First Emperor, there is no one in the entire mythical world that Hao Shuai needs to treat differently.
"Master Imperial Master, I wonder if I am lucky enough to be taught immortality?" Li Si said simply and without beating around the bush.
"No!" Hao Shuai spit out two words calmly. Knowing that Hao Shuai knew this kind of thing, he had to refuse it outright, otherwise the first one would lead to the second one.
"Uh~~~" Li Si had forgotten how long it had been since he had been rejected outright by someone, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Is there anything else, Prime Minister? If not, I will leave slowly without seeing you off!" Hao Shuai directly issued an eviction order.
"Then I'll take my leave now. I'll come visit you another day!" Li Si walked away angrily.
As soon as Li Si left here, a servant came to report: The right Prime Minister Feng Quji came to visit.
After inviting people in, Feng Quji expressed the same purpose as Li Si, wanting to learn immortal magic.
Of course, Hao Shuai refused without hesitation and sent him out.
Next, General Feng Jie and Young Master Hu Hai~~~~
It can be said that in less than an hour, Hao Shuai's Imperial Preceptor's Mansion was full of guests, and in a short period of time it received more than a dozen groups of princes and nobles who came to seek immortality.
In the end, Hao Shuai got bored and simply closed the door and thanked the guests.
As for whether doing so would offend the entire Da Qin ruling class.
The answer is of course yes!
But will Hao Shuai care?
The worst that can happen is that you will end up with a nuclear pacification of the world.
no!
It's pushing the world!
…
Just as Hao Shuai's Imperial Prefecture was being visited one after another, in Lishan, 60 or 70 kilometers away from Xianyang,
At this time, Lishan Mountain seemed like a huge construction site, with countless tents lined up in rows and rows, and countless strong men who had been forced to serve as corvees worked hard under the whips of the supervisors.
This is the mausoleum prepared by the First Emperor for his death. It took the First Emperor a full thirty-seven years to build this mausoleum, from the time he ascended the throne in 247 BC until he died of illness in a sand dune in 210 BC.
, this giant mausoleum took thirty-seven years to be officially completed.
During this period, more than 700,000 young and middle-aged people who were healthy and healthy were used as corvees. The scale of this project was far beyond what could be compared with the tombs of emperors in subsequent dynasties.
It can be said that the First Emperor was such a contradictory person. On the one hand, he desperately pursued immortality, and on the other hand, he sent people to build his own tomb.
Perhaps in the heart of the First Emperor himself, immortality was something he didn’t even dare to dream about and it would come true!
While the entire construction site was in full swing, a chamberlain eunuch rushed into the construction site with an imperial edict and entered the tent of General Zhang Han, the person in charge of the entire camp.
Not long after, Zhang Han convened a meeting with all the generals and conveyed the Emperor's will to them. After the generals returned to their respective areas of responsibility, the news spread around the mausoleum construction site.
"The Grand Master of the Qin Dynasty asked His Majesty the First Emperor to stop building the imperial mausoleum, and His Majesty agreed! They can go home!"
As the news was officially confirmed, the entire construction site fell into ecstasy, and countless people began to thank the national master who appeared out of nowhere.
When all the Lishan disciples started to pack their things and go home in batches, a piece of news was announced about the National Master recruiting workers to build the Dengxian Tower. They paid enough wages and the number of places was limited.
Most people don't believe this news.
Pay back wages?
I'm afraid you're not lying to a fool!
However, there are also some homeless people who choose to build Dengxian Tower with the mentality that even if they have no wages, food and accommodation will be provided.
The number of people is not large, probably more than 10,000!
These people will follow Zhang Han's supervisory army back to Xianyang City to continue their career of moving bricks.
