The First Emperor was already calm and angry, but after seeing Zhao Gao take out a piece of paper, he stood up suddenly and asked with furrowed brows: "Where did you get it from?"
Zhao Gao hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, it's Dalu Mansion. I had someone steal it from Dalu Mansion..."
The First Emperor looked at Zhao Gao doubtfully, "Stolen?"
Zhao Gao quickly explained: "Wei Chen also heard a few chamberlains on duty in Dalu Mansion muttering, so he asked a few more questions."
"I learned that Dalu Mansion had a lot of papers, so I ordered someone to steal some of them quietly and report them to Your Majesty as soon as possible after delivering them!"
The First Emperor stretched out his hand to hold the paper on the table and said suspiciously: "You mean, there is a lot of this paper in Dalu Mansion?"
Zhao Gao nodded in succession: "I don't know if it's true, but according to the chamberlains, every legislative official in Dalu Mansion holds paper to write."
"It is said that there are more than a dozen large wooden boxes inside, and they are being packed slowly. There are many, many."
"Also, there is a strange pen that can write without ink!"
The First Emperor's heart was shaken, as if he had been struck by lightning. He had no other thoughts. He stood up and said: "Go to Dalu Mansion and don't disturb other people."
Having said that, the First Emperor hurriedly walked out of Zhenghe Palace without even bothering to straighten his robes.
We arrived at Dalu Mansion very quickly.
The First Emperor of Dalu Mansion was familiar with the way, so he did not enter through the main entrance, but entered the apse from the side door.
"Shh!"
The First Emperor signaled the servants to keep quiet, and quietly came to the middle hall alone.
There was a barrier between the middle hall and the front hall, but the First Emperor, who was extremely familiar with Dalu Mansion, crept quietly in an unprotected area and peeked over.
You don’t know this by looking at it.
The first emperor was so frightened that he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"many!"
The First Emperor had only two words left to describe his feelings about what he saw.
I saw piles of papers everywhere in the front hall of Dalu Mansion.
Li Zhan, Zhang Rang, Gongshu Qiu, Zuo Guang, Shusuntong, Wu Shiluo, Hu Xiu, Zhuo Cheng... those people he was very familiar with were sitting at the table holding a copper pole, talking seriously.
of writing.
The thing used is paper.
That's all.
On the long table, there are thick layers of things that have not been written and things that have been written.
And that's all.
Next to those long tables, there was a huge wooden box. It was too far away to see the contents of the box, but he saw an official take out a stack of paper from the wooden box and put it on the long table.
"Um?"
The First Emperor frowned. This official should be a clerk in the official office. He looked familiar but didn't recognize him. But when he saw this clerk, he took advantage of the gap between holding the paper and took advantage of others not paying attention.
He stuffed a piece of paper into his sleeve.
Since no one was paying attention, the official stuffed the bag and sat down pretending to be nonchalant.
"Bold enough to steal some paper!"
The First Emperor couldn't help but clenched his fists, turned around and asked a eunuch, "Where is Yingcheng, someone is secretly hiding the paper, does he not care?"
"Your Majesty, Dalu Ling left Dalu Mansion after arranging many things. I don't know where Dalu Ling went." The eunuch hurriedly knelt down and replied.
God knows why the First Emperor suddenly appeared and came quietly.
Hearing this, the First Emperor frowned, looked at it again, and said, "Go and call Li Zhan over to me, and don't make any noise!"
The chamberlain quickly stood up and entered the front hall without attracting anyone's attention.
Li Zhan is very proud now. Sometimes he is working on commercial law, and sometimes he is working on agricultural law, providing guidance on legislative opinions.
very happy.
Ying Cheng is not here, he is the boss here, he can do whatever he wants, and he can legislate however he wants. Wouldn't that be happy?
It's best to hope that Ying Cheng never shows up and let him take care of it.
The chamberlain saw the opportunity and whispered in Li Zhan's ear.
Purr.
Li Zhan almost lost his voice and turned to look at the barrier between the front and middle halls, his eyes almost popping out of his head.
The First Emperor is here, and has been here for a long time.
Darling... all Li Zhan could think about was whether he had done anything outrageous just now.
After thinking about it for a moment, I felt calm.
Because of the prompt, Li Zhan pretended to be nonchalant and walked a few steps towards the middle hall. As soon as he entered, he saw the First Emperor lying on his stomach next to a covered hole and looking towards the front hall.
"Your Majesty, Li Zhan, pays homage to your Majesty!" Li Zhan saluted hurriedly.
Hearing Li Zhan's arrival, the First Emperor turned around and said with a smile: "Li Aiqing, please sit down, sit down, sit down!"
The First Emperor raised his hand in an extremely polite manner.
Li Zhan was a little uncomfortable by the sudden kindness of the First Emperor, but he still sat down.
"Well, how is the progress of the legislation?" asked the First Emperor pretending to be nonchalant.
"Your Majesty, everything is difficult at the beginning, but you can rest assured that your ministers will definitely help Dalu Ling to get this thing done." Li Zhan replied excitedly.
"Well, why don't you see Ying Cheng? I saw your writing, but there is no bamboo or silk book. How can you legislate?" The First Emperor couldn't help but ask, wanting to make some insinuations about the paper.
Li Zhan felt that the First Emperor was just asking about the progress of the legislation. He had no idea that the First Emperor was just looking at the paper, so he opened his mouth and replied:
"Your Majesty, didn't Dalu Ling present paper to Your Majesty? We don't use bamboo or silk books. We have thirteen large wooden boxes of paper. We can't use them all in one day. I think there should be a lot of Dalu Ling.
There is also a small tube, so you can write as much as you like. It is much easier to use than a brush, and the writing is extremely smooth."
"Your Majesty, when it comes to this, I have to say with emotion, this paper is really a heaven-made thing specially made for writing. It writes so smoothly.
The fact that Dalu Ling was able to produce such a magical object really makes Da Qin feel like we have some divine help."
"I must admit my mistake to Your Majesty and Dalu Ling. Before, I was wrong. Only when I saw the paper today did I understand Dalu Ling's hard work and hard work and true vision."
The First Emperor listened harshly to Li Zhan's reply, and suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart.
He had indeed seen the paper, and he had seen it a few days ago, but it was handed over by Guo Huaiyi, and there was only one piece, which he kept as a treasure.
The second time I saw the paper, it was Zhao Gao who took it, so he came over in a hurry.
Tribute?
Have it?
Could it be that in the Great Qin Palace, who is brave enough to intercept the things that Ying Cheng dedicated to him?
No!
That means Ying Cheng has no dedication.
Instead, take it directly to Dalu Mansion for use.
A good thing is a good thing, but now that he is listening to Li Zhan praising Ying Cheng here, he feels even less bored.
"Did the matter about the paper leak out from this hall?" the First Emperor couldn't help but ask.
"Well, I guess not. I haven't left Dalu Mansion today." Li Zhan replied doubtfully, not understanding why the First Emperor asked such a question.
There are papers hidden in his sleeves, and he is going to take them home for dad to take a look at, can you not let them out?
The First Emperor immediately gestured: "Go and bring me a stack of paper. It's so thick. Don't make any noise or chew your tongue!"
