Chapter 446: Ill take you to Qin Shihuang to borrow books
After Hao Shuai and Lu Miaozi supplemented the specific details of the plan, Hao Shuai revealed the main purpose of his visit.
Hao Shuai took out the "Secret of Immortality" from the space, handed it to Lu Miaozi, and said, "Old man Lu, help me see if I can decipher it!"
Lu Miaozi's expression changed. He had been famous for the "Secret of Immortality" among the four magical arts for a long time, and had never seen it before. He took it and looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but nod and shake his head.
Hao Shuai couldn't understand his expression, so he said, "You are nodding and shaking your head, what do you mean?"
Lu Miaozi replied: "Nodding because I am confident that I can decipher it, shaking my head because it will take me at least a year to decipher it!"
Hao Shuai was a little puzzled: "If you know me, I know you. If you don't, I don't know you. What? You still want to spend a year learning ancient Chinese?"
"I really plan to decipher it while referring to ancient books." Lu Miaozi said matter-of-factly.
"There are only more than 7,000 words in total, you need a year? You are too efficient~~" Hao Shuai almost looked at Lu Miaozi as if he was mentally retarded.
Could it be that what he was looking for was the fake Lu Miaozi?
"Sir, you misunderstood. You should know that since the Qin Emperor burned books and harassed Confucian scholars, the ancient texts have been incompletely circulated in the world. Therefore, I plan to spend a year visiting those pre-Qin ancient tombs to find the required ancient books.
Naturally, it can be deciphered." Lu Miaozi explained.
"Tomb robbers are just tomb robbers. How about visiting? You are not afraid of the ancients coming to you in the middle of the night." Hao Shuai did not expect that Lu Miaozi was also proficient in the art of tomb robbing, but he didn't know which school his techniques belonged to.
Hao Shuai thought that he should be considered as the one who came from Faqiu and Mojin. After all, as a master of all things, it is normal for him to be proficient in Feng Shui mechanisms.
"Sir, this is not tomb robbing, this is borrowing books! Borrowing books from ancient people!" Lu Miaozi was a little anxious. How could he have anything to do with tomb robbing when he was a great master?
"Okay~Okay~Okay~, it's considered a 'borrowing' book. In other words, the reason why it takes a year is because you have to 'borrow' a book, right?" Hao Shuai asked.
"Yes, as long as I 'borrow' the book, I am confident that I can decipher it within a month." Lu Miaozi still has this confidence.
"Then let's go!"
"Sir, where are you going?"
"I'll take you to borrow a book!"
"ah?"
…
Outside Xianyang City in the Mythical World of Da Qin
"Sir, is this Xianyang?" Lu Miaozi, who had just recovered from traveling across the world, asked curiously. Although he recognized the two small seal characters above the city gate, he still wanted to confirm.
"Yes! This is the imperial capital of the Qin Dynasty eight hundred years ago. Aren't you looking for ancient books from the pre-Qin period? There are many things going on in the Imperial Palace of Qin." Looking at the huge city wall in front of him, Hao Shuai had mixed feelings.
"But why is this city wall so strange? It's not made of huge rocks?" Lu Miaozi was a little confused.
"Oh, that's cement, used for building houses." Hao Shuai explained casually.
"Cement?" Lu Miaozi felt at this moment that he, as a master of all things, had lost his reputation, otherwise why would there be so many things that he didn't know.
"You will understand this by yourself later. Now let's enter the city!" Hao Shuai was not in the mood to give Lu Miaozi popular science knowledge and took the lead in walking towards the city gate.
Seeing this, Lu Miaozi hurriedly followed.
Hao Shuai did not plan to fly directly into the palace to find Ying Zheng, but planned to walk all the way there and take a look at the changes in Da Qin over the years.
The two of them had just walked to the city gate and were about to queue up to pay the city entrance tax, but they were told by the people next to them that Da Qin had canceled the city entrance tax.
Hao Shuai was a little happy about this. Hao Shuai had suggested to Qin Shihuang to cancel all the various exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, including the city entrance tax. It seems that Comrade Ying Zheng still listened.
After entering the city, Hao Shuai walked along the street for two days and found that the business in Xianyang City was getting more and more prosperous. The whole street was crowded with people and the sounds of hawking were everywhere.
Based on Hao Shuai's experience traveling through so many worlds, the business of Great Qin has probably reached the level of the Song Dynasty.
Suddenly, an overwhelming sense of accomplishment arose in my heart.
Hao Shuai did not return to his Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, but walked straight towards the Great Qin Palace. After all, he did not bring Lu Pheasant and Lu Su back this time, so it would be difficult to represent Lu Gong.
"Forbidden areas of the palace, stop anyone coming!"
When Hao Shuai and Lu Miaozi approached the palace gate, the palace guards stopped them.
"You~ are you~ the National Preceptor?"
Before Hao Shuai said anything, a guard who looked like a commander looked at Hao Shuai and asked stammeringly.
"Oh, you know me?" Hao Shuai was curious.
"I was lucky enough to meet the Imperial Master once," the commander replied respectfully.
"That's it! Go tell your Majesty that I'm back." Hao Shuai waved his hand and took Lu Miaozi into the palace. The guards on the side didn't stop him. After explaining something, the commander quickly came to the palace.
Run to the palace.
When Hao Shuai and the others were halfway there, they saw the First Emperor and his ministers coming out to greet them. Only then did Hao Shuai know that the First Emperor and the others happened to be in court.
I looked up at the sun. Yes, the First Emperor finally changed the time of going to court to 9 to 5!
"My Lord Imperial Master! You have finally come back to see me!"
Before he even got close, the voice of the First Emperor came over, and his tone sounded as if Hao Shuai had done something to feel sorry for him.
"Your Majesty, long time no see, how are you?" Hao Shuai said, cupping his hands towards the First Emperor in front of him, then looking at the ministers who came out together, cupping his hands and saying, "Ministers, how are you?"
"Thank you, Imperial Master, for your concern!"
"Thanks to the Imperial Master, everything is fine!"
"It's been a long time since I last saw you, Imperial Master!"
"The Imperial Master is still so young!"
…
The old faces among the ministers greeted Hao Shuai one after another, while the new faces looked curiously at the Imperial Master, whom His Majesty would never forget.
"Come here, go to Dengxian Tower to prepare food and drinks. I'm going to host a banquet there for the Imperial Master!" After the First Emperor ordered his servants, he took Hao Shuai's hand and said, "Come on, Imperial Master, go to Dengxian Tower. I have a lot of food."
I want to ask you a question!"
"There's no rush, Your Majesty. I came back this time to ask your Majesty for a favor." Hao Shuai stopped the turbulent First Emperor.
"What's the matter? Just tell me, Imperial Master."
"I would like to ask Your Majesty to bring me all the ancient books in the palace." Hao Shuai requested directly.
"That's it? It's a small matter. Come on, did you hear what the Imperial Master said? Go and move all the books to the Dengxian Tower for the Imperial Master. At the same time, he ordered that the ancient Chinese books for lunch in Xianyang City be collected and brought together." The First Emperor ordered domineeringly.
road.
"Then thank you Your Majesty!" Hao Shuai thanked him!
Then he turned to Lu Miaozi, who was in a sluggish state because of seeing Qin Shihuang, and said: "Old man Lu, you should also go along and see what you need. Just take it, and there is no need to be polite to His Majesty!"
"Yes, you don't have to be polite to me." The First Emperor responded generously.
Let’s go to Dengxian Tower!”
…
Hao Shuai stayed in the Dengxian Tower all day and night.
There was no way, the First Emperor was too enthusiastic, and he dragged him either to eat or drink, or to ask him about the problems encountered in the development of the Qin Empire and the problems in his own cultivation.
Through conversation, Hao Shuai also got a general idea of the current situation in Daqin: overall, it is prosperous.
In terms of government affairs, Hao Shuai's cabinet system was adopted, which made government orders clear, and coupled with a series of policies that benefited the country and the people, the effect was really impressive.
In terms of military affairs, the Qin cavalry had already swept across the Xiongnu and were now using troops to attack the areas south of Baiyue.
Hao Shuai estimates that it only takes another seven or eight years to unify Asia!
After all, there are really no countries in Asia that deserve Da Qin's attention.
As for unifying the world, that depends on the physical condition of the First Emperor.
