"In other words... have you ever seen Marquis Wu Cheng flying in a dragon car in the sky?" The First Emperor narrowed his eyes and stared at Xu Fu in front of him. Xu Fu was a little furious when the emperor stared at him. At this moment, sitting in front of him, he was the ruler of the world and the supreme emperor. As long as one word was wrong, he would be separated... Xu Fu knew this very well.

The luster of Wu Chenghou concealed the emperor's light, just as if this emperor was completely affected by Wu Chenghou's light, and his ability was not outstanding... Unfortunately, this is an illusion. The First Emperor had many shortcomings. In comparison with Wu Chenghou, these shortcomings can be especially amplified. He was irritable, conceited, and eager for quick success... However, this emperor also possessed all the qualities possessed by an excellent emperor.

He can recognize people. Just by looking at the people he arranged in the temple and their achievements, he can tell the emperor's ability in employed people. Zhao Gao and Li Si and the Qin gravediggers in official history are also very outstanding. No one knows how the emperor discovered them and how they saw their abilities. On the original historical line, Zhao Gao and Li Si compiled new words... Putting aside personal morality, in terms of ability, not many people can compare to them.

At the same time, he had extraordinary courage and great talent, as if he was tailored for the emperor. Now, due to the cultivation of Zhao Kuo and others, the emperor's cruel and killing character was eliminated, which left him without the last shortcoming. He began to care about the people at the bottom and would not treat the people of the six countries as slaves. After the death of Wu Chenghou, Qin did not stop moving forward. Under the emperor's gaze, he went faster.

Xu Fu couldn't help but remember his previous colleagues. These colleagues fooled the emperor as fools, such as making the emperor immortal and what could make Wu Chenghou resurrected. As a result, these people were taken out to kill. If Han Fei hadn't pleaded with him, all the alchemists in the world would have been taken out to behead him. Xu Fuyi said righteously: "I have never seen him before."

"Oh?", this finally aroused some interest from the emperor. Xu Fu was not stupid. On the contrary, this man was very smart. He could trick the emperor into a circle on the original historical line, and he could see that this man was unusual, although the emperor at that time was fascinated by eternal life because of his fear of the power of time. The emperor asked again: "Then how do you know these? Why can those scenes be described in such a detail?"

"Your Majesty... These are all seen by the residents of Qi's coastal areas with their own eyes... I recorded what they saw... In Langya, Qi's land, more than two thousand people saw the scene of the fairy island appearing in the distance... You can send someone to ask. I don't have the luck that I have never seen these with my own eyes..." Xu Fu was just talking, and the emperor interrupted him without hesitation and asked angrily: "Since you haven't seen it, it's just something heard, how dare you write a letter to fool me?"

Xu Fu knelt down in panic and said, "I dare not... the reason why I wrote this letter is to confirm for Your Majesty whether this matter is true..."

The emperor shook his head and sneered, "If it is fake, it is the fault of the fishermen. If it is true, then you can receive the reward... You are really unwilling to suffer losses, no need to say more... How could such a thing be true?" Zhao Kuo's serious face appeared in Ying Zheng's mind, "Birth, old age, sickness and death are the normal human feelings. The so-called gods are also spiritual sustenances that people think of, and they cannot be believed."

Ying Zheng did not give Xu Fu too many opportunities to show himself, so he directly asked the warriors to drive him out. Although Xu Fu could not convince the emperor, his life was saved. After sending the alchemist away, the emperor knelt in front of the desk, but he couldn't help but look at the book presented by Xu Fu again... The description of the immortal island and the immortal saint on the island were really touching. Unfortunately, it was all fake. Ying Zheng thought, and directly threw Xu Fu's book aside and ignored it.

Over the years, the emperor has not forgotten Zhao Kuo's advice. When he could decide anything, he still did not do a big project according to his desire. Even the water conservancy project, he only built a large project along the Yellow River... The white-haired and hunched Zheng State immediately rushed to Wei after receiving the emperor's order, preparing to follow the Yellow River, from Han to Wei and Zhao, and build it near Qi.

Over the years, he has been repeatedly formulating this channel, waiting for the emperor's permission. In the end, he finally waited for this day alive. Zheng Guo's excitement was unspeakable. His vicissitudes shot out from his eyes, and his whole body was full of strength, as if he was twenty years younger... It's a pity that Zheng Guo is too old... He is older than Zhao Kuo. Over the years, because the temple is unwilling to start construction, he has been depressed and unsuccessful.

If it weren't for the emperor's promise, I'm afraid he wouldn't have survived this time. When the emperor ordered to start building network channels along the river to improve the surrounding environment, Zheng State took the initiative to ask for full responsibility for this matter... The old man, in a ox cart, rushed to Wei land and made his own excavation plan. However, it was not too late to complete it. In the third month after he arrived at Wei land, Zheng State died of illness.

When he received the emperor's order, he was already seriously ill. He could not bear such a long journey. With field investigations and working day and night, he quietly passed away after falling asleep one night and never woke up again. The manuscript he left behind was not something that ordinary people could understand. His son Zheng Gong would continue this major project instead of his father.

In other aspects, the emperor also forced himself to hold back his anger. Even if these fools under his command could not achieve the emperor's goal, the emperor still forced himself to not kill them. Otherwise, if he really wanted to kill them, Han Fei would not be able to stop him. The emperor ignored Han Fei's behavior of restricting the imperial power. He often debated with Fusu. Listening to Fusu's "big" "great ambitions" that "bad" mean, he thought it would be good to limit the royal power!!

Fusu is much worse than his father. He is not as good as Ying Zheng in terms of his ability to deal with politics, in terms of identifying people, or in other fields. Even Ying Zheng was young. The only highlight of him is that he is really kind, deeply loved by everyone, and has a very high reputation among the people. He went out several times to inspect and spread coins along the way, giving money to the people and rectifying the places, which made the people love him very much.

The same is true for the ministers. They are closer to Fusu than the emperor. After all, Fusu is easy to talk and will not lose his head just by saying a wrong sentence.

To be honest, the emperor was a little dissatisfied with him. He believed that Fusu was not a qualified successor. He could review the memorial in one day. Fusu took ten days, which made Ying Zheng very unhappy. However, he had no choice. His other children were not as good as Fusu... In fact, Fusu's ability was not too mediocre, but in front of Ying Zheng... it seemed a little inadequate to see.

Fortunately, Zhao Kuo has mentioned many times that it is a good thing to have such a gentle and kind emperor who inherits a great cause. The people of the world need a transitional time. It takes at least sixty years for the people of the six countries to become Qin people. The first thirty years were in the hands of Ying Zheng and the next thirty years were in the hands of Fusu. Ying Zheng did not object to this point. Even with his influence among the people, there would be no unrest in the Qin State in the short term.

Besides, there were many ministers who could be appointed by him. Just what Ying Zheng knew, such as Xiao He, Zhang Cang and Meng Yi, and Zhang Liang, who inherited his father's knowledge, these young people will become Fusu's left and right hands in the future. With them, as long as Fusu does not take the initiative to die, there should be no major problems. Fusu's personality is not an emperor who loves to find trouble, as long as he can appoint these talented people.

In the following days, the emperor was busy with the affairs of several counties in the northwest... He finally realized that he could no longer handle the matters in his hands as quickly as before. He became easily tired, his stomach became bigger, and his whole body became heavier... He finally realized that he was older, and when Fusu's son was playing around, he could feel this, and he also became the eldest father.

When Ming walked into the hall, Ying Zheng lit a candle in front of him. He was looking at the documents in his hand and thinking attentively... Ming did not dare to disturb him, but just sat quietly aside and waited for him. However, after waiting for a long time, the emperor still frowned and did not put down the paper in his hand. Ming stood up helplessly, walked behind the emperor, and gently pinched his shoulders.

The emperor trembled all over, and then he saw the queen standing behind him. He asked calmly: "Why haven't you been asleep yet?"

"It's been a few days... You're busy here all day, how can this be done? The Imperial Doctor said that you need to rest... Otherwise, you'll be dizzy as before..."

The emperor frowned and said nothing, and his expression became more and more serious. Ming knew what he was thinking. This old man just refused to admit defeat. He was obviously old and could no longer be like when he was young, but he just refused to admit defeat. Ming didn't say much, but just started to grasp it gently. The emperor looked at the memorial in his hand. This was a list of officials from the northwest counties. He slowly put down the paper and sighed.

"It's obviously not that difficult...it's just picking a few people...how do you become..." The emperor whispered, Ming looked at the silver-white hair on his head, and just comforted him: "You've been busy for several days, so why don't you take a break and do it tomorrow, maybe you can do it well."

After the queen said this, the emperor naturally no longer objected. He grabbed the desk in front of him with both hands and wanted to stand up. Next, he was surprised to find that he could not stand up... Ming hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him up, but the emperor pushed her away with some roughness, grabbed the desk in both hands, and exerted force. Finally, he stood up, but the soreness in his body could not be done. The emperor gritted his teeth and endured it.

Even though he never admits defeat, this body has told him honestly: You are old.

The emperor did not develop a arrogant and ignorant character, so he naturally would not be domineering in his ruling desire to be enemies of time and the natural laws of birth, old age, sickness and death. However, the pride hidden in his heart did not allow him to admit defeat to time so easily. Ming stood not far away, looking at him with a little worried look. The emperor frowned and said seriously: "Let's go!" Ming nodded, following him, the emperor walked very slowly, lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Time passed quickly. When the cold winter disappeared again and spring came, Xu Fu appeared in front of the emperor again. Unlike last time, this time it was the emperor who sent someone to call him. Xu Fu was ready to leave, but when he heard the emperor summoned him, he came to the palace without stopping. The emperor looked at the alchemist in front of him. His father's words echoed in his ears over and over again, and the eyes of his eyes looking at Xu Fu became more and more unkind, which made Xu Fu frightened. He called himself not to kill him, right?

The emperor was a little confused. He didn't believe in ghosts and gods, immortality and other things. However, as he got older, he felt a little bored in his heart. He was not afraid of death, and the emperor was not afraid of anything... He just didn't want to leave too many regrets. He still had a lot of things he wanted to do. He wanted to see the channels completed, build roads across the country, and connect the whole world... He wanted to see colleges at all levels covering the whole world.

He wanted to do a lot of things in his heart. It was because of this that he suddenly had the idea of ​​meeting Xu Fu. At this moment, looking at Xu Fu in front of him, he felt particularly entangled and very complicated.

The clever Xu Fu seemed to see through the emperor's entanglement. He said nothing, but just waited for the emperor to speak first. Sure enough, the emperor hesitated for a long time and finally asked: "Did those fishermen say what else is on the fairy island?" Xu Fu felt the opportunity came, and then he started his own performance, such as fishermen who really walked onto the island, and rejuvenated after eating the fruits there, and some people who were there to become Confucius, who were ignorant of their eyes when they disappeared, and were proficient in Confucianism when they came out...

This kind of words were tempting. Xu Fu always paid attention to the emperor's appearance. When he said he was rejuvenated, the emperor's face was a little moved, which made Xu Fu know the emperor's desire. Therefore, he knew what he should say next. He gave several examples and even took out the transcript of the witness. The balance in the emperor's heart was also slowly tilting...

In this year, despite the opposition of his ministers, the emperor set up a brand new institution in Qidi, which was responsible for building ships and exploring overseas, with the goal of finding overseas fairy islands.
