The students of the Royal Academy were too enthusiastic, and Hu Hai wanted to use these enthusiastic young people to do the newspaper work. They hit it off immediately, and it was not until the sun went down that he had to talk to the students who had already surrounded the huge campus.
Farewell.
These students' admiration for Hu Hai is undoubtedly from the bottom of their hearts. There were too many people, which led to the professors of the Royal Academy sweating profusely to maintain order without any results. However, after Hu Hai's two short sentences
The students consciously maintained order.
Although there were commotions and brief chaos, fortunately, nothing unusual happened as Long Hong had been worried about.
By the time Hu Hai said goodbye to Kong Kun and He Xian'er returned to Xianyang Palace, it was already the beginning of the lantern lighting.
Just as he walked outside the emperor's study, Hu Hai saw two petite figures turning around and running away the moment they saw him appear. He couldn't help but become angry and shouted loudly: "Stop."
When the two petite figures heard Hu Hai's roar, they stood still as if they had been cast a restraining spell.
"Come back to me." Hu Hai was angry and funny, and said calmly in a slow voice.
The two figures with their backs to Hu Hai hesitated for a moment, then slowly turned around and walked towards Hu Hai, who was standing at the door of the emperor's study, one step at a time.
We're so close, who is it if it's not Ying Zhen and Cui Niang who is serving Ying Zhen in the east hall?
Hu Hai looked behind him. Long Hong and the others had disappeared like ghosts at some point. Apparently, they had already figured out who the two people were who were waiting furtively outside the emperor's study.
Ying Zhen walked to a place three steps in front of Hu Hai and stopped. He lowered his head and stared at his toes, silent. Cui Niang, who was following Ying Zhen, wanted to shrink her body to the limit so that she could hide.
Ying Zhen stood behind Hu Hai and blocked Hu Hai's gaze.
Both girls seemed to have forgotten the most basic etiquette when meeting the emperor. Fortunately, Hu Hai didn't care at all.
Hu Hai stared at the silent Ying Zhen for a long time, then glanced at Cui Niang who was huddled behind Ying Zhen.
In the blink of an eye, it has been ten years since he ascended the throne.
Starting from the execution of Zhao Gao on the east patrol road, the two women Luzhu and Cuiniang followed Hu Hai. Although their identity and status did not play a big role in the execution of Zhao Gao, Hu Hai was isolated and helpless.
During the time, the two women were always by their side. They followed Hu Hai through the most difficult period of time during the initial journey.
Later, as Hu Hai officially entered the Qin Dynasty, he fought against the sky, the courtiers, and the survivors of the Six Kingdoms. In addition, Concubine Li, Yu Ji, and Li Ju entered the palace one after another, although both women were promoted to female officials in Xianyang Palace.
, but Hu Hai had so many things to do that he inevitably neglected the two women.
So much so that there were rumors that the two women would enter the emperor's harem, but they completely disappeared after Li Yu sealed the title.
Concubine Li was assassinated, and the two women accompanied Concubine Li in the palace; they stayed there for two years; then Yingzhen took control of the Black Ice Platform and moved into the East Palace. After Hu Hai agreed, Cuiniang was transferred to the East Palace as a female officer, responsible for Yingzhen.
daily life.
Hu Hai came and went in a hurry every day. Compared to Lvzhu in Concubine Li's bedroom, in the east hall next to the emperor's study, Hu Hai was the place he least set foot on.
In the past ten years, the maids in Xianyang Palace have been replaced one after another, but the two original cardamom girls have now become old maids who cannot get married.
As if feeling Hu Hai's eyes, Cui Niang, who had lowered her head and hid behind Ying Zhen, shrank in again.
Alas. Hu Hai withdrew his eyes and let out a long sigh in his heart.
"Cui Niang, please go back to the east hall first."
Although he knew that such words would hurt Cuiniang, Hu Hai still said cruelly and softly.
"Here!"
When Cui Niang heard Hu Hai's words, her delicate body couldn't help but tremble. With a slight trembling sound, she bowed her head and walked back.
Hu Hai could feel the deep sadness in her heart at this moment. But what he said to Ying Zhen next was best not to be heard by Cuiniang, otherwise Ying Zhen might be embarrassed to death.
"Brother Emperor..."
Ying Zhen didn't expect Hu Hai to be so heartless towards Cuiniang. He only saw Cuiniang a few times in a year, but as soon as they met, he drove Cuiniang away like anyone else.
The same fate made Ying Zhen have a special closeness to Cuiniang, a woman with a humble background but who never asked for anything. In the past few years, accompanying Ying Zhen in the East Hall has been nothing but a huge amount of things that he can never seem to handle.
Apart from letters and newspapers, there is only Cui Niang.
"Zhen'er, I have my own arrangements for Cui Niang's affairs. Today I will talk about your... mine."
Hu Hai interrupted Ying Zhen's words, but when he talked about you and me, there was a sudden pause.
What about you and me?
Yingzhen was immediately stunned when he heard what Hu Hai said.
Instead of using me, you and I were used. Did the Emperor know something?
For a moment, Ying Zhen felt that his heartbeat was about to jump out of his chest, and his head went blank.
Hu Hai is actually not much better than Ying Zhen at this time. After all, he has always treated Ying Zhen like a sister before. However, after the incident at Xianyang Grand Theater, the relationship between the two quietly changed slightly. More
The important thing is that after discovering Ying Zhen's feelings for him, Hu Hai was surprised to find that he was not too resistant, and even had some expectations.
"You've grown up really. Just take your time with some things, okay? You don't have to push yourself too hard, isn't there still the Emperor Brother here? You know that nothing in this world can be difficult for the Emperor Brother, right?"
"Um!"
"Don't stay in the east hall all the time on weekdays. It's not like Black Ice Terrace won't function without you as the hall master, right? Just leave some things to the people below."
"Um!"
"If you have nothing to do, take Cuiniang to Xianyang Grand Theater..."
The meaningless dialogue between Hu Hai and Ying Zhen came to an abrupt end here. Hu Hai thought about why he mentioned this, wasn't he embarrassing Ying Zhen?
Ying Zhen, who was still unaware of anything, suddenly paused after Hu Hai mentioned the Xianyang Grand Theater. She immediately thought of everything that happened to her and Hu Hai on the carriage and in the theater that day, and was embarrassed.
I almost had to find a hole in the ground to burrow into.
A hint of ambiguity began to linger among a pair of unrelated men and women.
"Well, Zhen'er, you know what I...mean...right? I still have government affairs to deal with, so I'm leaving first."
Hu Hai hurriedly dropped these words and used political escape to escape in embarrassment.
"Poof!"
It was the first time that he saw His Majesty, the Holy Emperor of Qin, who had everything in the world in mind, so embarrassed. Ying Zhen finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Hearing Ying Zhen's laughter, Hu Hai staggered and almost tripped over the threshold of the study room. Hu Hai cursed in his heart and ran away faster without looking back.
Ying Zhen's clear laughter echoed throughout the emperor's study.
This should be the happiest she has laughed in the past few years.
…
On the sixth day of May in the 10th year of the Second World, Hu Hai issued an edict through the Zongzheng Mansion, officially canonizing Cuiniang, the female official of the East Palace, and Lvzhu, the female official of Lifei Palace, as the ninth concubine of the fourth rank. He also renamed the East Palace Zhaohua Palace and gave it to Princess Zhaohua Yingzhen.
.
The nearly ten years of being awarded the title of Ninth Concubine, Cuiniang and Luzhu have finally come to fruition.
…
On May 16, the 10th year of the Second World War, the Royal Academy was formally proposed to the Cabinet Office by Kong Yu, the Chancellor of the Royal Academy. It was established within the Royal Academy with the approval of the Holy Emperor Hu Hai.
On May 18th, the first issue of the Royal Newspaper's tabloid appeared in the streets and alleys of Xianyang City. However, the contents of this first issue of the Royal Newspaper's newspaper were all about polo and football news.
On May 20th, the Holy Emperor Hu Hai issued an edict, and the 200,000 soldiers of the Daqin Construction Corps were divided into two groups and marched to the four counties of Jibei, Dongjun, Jiujiang, and Kuaiji to start building dams on the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and Yellow River.
For these two great river dams that have been linked to China for generations, thousands of craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry spent five years and traveled nearly thousands of miles. Finally, in February of the 19th century, they completed the first complete water survey of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River.
,Topography and relief mapping and surveying.
Although everything has been going well in recent years, Hu Hai did not dare to take it lightly. Because of this, after dispatching 200,000 soldiers of the construction corps, Hu Hai issued an edict for the first time ten years after he ascended the throne to recruit a total of 400,000 people to join the construction.
In the army of dykes.
400,000 civilians plus 200,000 soldiers, a total of 600,000, may seem like a lot. But scattered across two rivers stretching for thousands of miles, it's not necessarily that many.
These two dams were the first and largest conscription of Qin people for labor service by Hu Hai in the ten years since he came to the throne. He attached more importance to these two dams than to Li Xin's Western Expedition. It may be said that he devoted all the efforts of the country to
A bit exaggerated, but not an exaggeration.
At the same time, dozens of counties and counties in Jiangdong, Jiangnan, Central Plains, and Guanzhong of the Qin Dynasty began a vigorous campaign to dredge the canal under the supervision of officials from the Ministry of Industry.
The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in later generations has already been sketched by Hu Hai, and craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry and Shangfang have been working non-stop to design and prepare. However, this canal will obviously no longer be dug by Chinese people in this life.
In the past two years, the southern expedition armies of Feng Jie and Yu Ziqi have successively transported back more than 200,000 southeastern natives. Especially Yu Ziqi's huge fleet of hundreds of warships is considered ahead of schedule.
For more than two thousand years, he visited all peninsulas in Central and South China, including the Malay Islands and the Philippine Islands.
I think it won't be long before Feng Jie's Guilin Army enters Myanmar, and the Great Qin South China Sea Fleet will be able to enter the Indian Ocean through the Strait of Malacca.
In addition to plundering the natives and returning them to the Qin Dynasty, tens of thousands of people from the Bashu and Bashu counties had already arrived near the Red River Delta before the year and began to settle under the escort of the Guilin army. They gradually began to move westward following the footsteps of Feng Jie's Guilin army.
With.
Regarding the matter of relocating people to settle in new lands, it stands to reason that the Baiyue barbarians are actually the ones who have recently adapted to the hot and humid climate of Indochina. However, Hu Hai and the Cabinet Office are highly consistent in their opinions, that is, those who are not from the Old Qin clan will not move.
