Chapter 205 The Emperor's Mind
Chapter 205 The Emperor's Thoughts
Qin Qing is dead!
The death was very sudden, and no one could have predicted it. So much so that when Ying Zheng received the news, he was stunned and speechless.
Generally speaking, Ying Zheng would not easily summon Qin Qing to Xianyang.
In the past two years, Qin Qing's body has become worse and worse, and Ying Zheng is not unaware of this. Therefore, there is nothing particularly important, and Ying Zheng will not let Qin Qing travel so far. But this time, Ying Zheng has no choice but to come, and Qin Qing has to come.
Since Ying Zheng killed Lao Ai and eliminated Lu Buwei, he began to build the Mausoleum of Mount Li.
This Mount Li Mausoleum is what later generations call the First Emperor Mausoleum. Just imagine, an ambitious emperor who wants to unify the world naturally attaches great importance to his tomb. What's more, this ambitious emperor still hopes that his foundation will last forever.
Feng Shui theory has appeared as early as ancient times.
The person who measured the Feng Shui of the Mausoleum of the First Emperor was Qin Qing, who Ying Zheng trusted the most. Not only that, the design of the entire Mausoleum, especially the interior of the Mausoleum, was completely handled by Qin Qing. There were many mechanisms in the Mausoleum. At the same time, the theory of the fortune of the Qin Dynasty was involved, which further highlighted the importance of Qin Qing. According to Qin Qing's plan, it would take at least ten years for the Lishan Mausoleum to be completed.
Emperor Shin-Yin was only in his forties, and he was at his peak.
This time, Qin Qing was summoned to Xianyang to identify the most important link in the Lishan Mausoleum, called the Qiankun Diagram. According to the Yin and Yang family, this Qiankun Diagram is a Feng Shui array. As long as this Feng Shui array is set up, the rest will be built according to the drawings.
Qin Qing, as the leader of the Bashu Wu Alliance, was naturally very proficient in the yin and yang arts.
Originally, she just came over to provide some detailed guidance, and the workload was not large, so she could complete it easily. But she never expected that after arriving at the Lishan Mausoleum, she found a problem in horror. She climbed the rooftop, which was called Afang Palace, which was later called, actually cut off the vein of the Canglong dragon, forming a pattern of holding a corpse in the blue dragon, and destroyed the Qiankun map she had worked hard to create.
Is it intentional? Or unintentional?
Qin Qing had no way of knowing.
Because now, Lu Zigao has become the person Ying Zheng trusts the most.
Moreover, Emperor First Emperor had no place to live all day, and few people knew about his whereabouts... It seems unlikely that he would find out the situation if he wanted to see him.
So Qin Qing did not immediately tell the First Emperor about this matter.
After talking to Meng Yi, who was responsible for receiving her, he hurried into the imperial tomb and modified the formation to break the impact of climbing the rooftop. Qin Qing thought it was very simple... In her opinion, although the pattern of the Azure Dragon holding corpse destroyed the pattern of the Lishan Mausoleum, it was not difficult to resolve it. However, Qin Qing ignored one thing, that is, her body.
In later generations, Feng Shui was so mysterious that it seemed like a trick to deceive people.
But in fact, the rules contained in this are unfathomable. It takes endless effort to arrange a Feng Shui array and resolve a pattern. If it were ten years earlier, it would have been not a difficult task when Qin Qing was healthy. But the problem is that her body is not as big as before. Even after modifying the Qiankun diagram and re-arrangement, she is already exhausted.
As soon as the Qiankun map was completed, Qin Qing fell into a coma.
But this coma never woke up again... If he had been sent for treatment immediately, there would be no room for rescue.
But this Qiankun map is at the bottom of the Lishan Mausoleum, and it is also the core of the First Emperor's Mausoleum.
When setting up the formation, Qin Qing was the only one. If Feng Chang had not been waiting outside and had noticed the clue, it would have been longer before he could be discovered. It was this delay that when Qin Qing was carried out from the Mausoleum of Mount Li, he would have died of anger.
No matter how Qin Qing planned for the Qin family, he was not optimistic about the future of Lao Qin.
But when doing things, there is no selfish thoughts. Deep in Qin Qing's heart, don't you hope that Lao Qin can last forever?
It's just this number of days...
Since ancient times, no one has truly explained what the number of days is. This is an extremely complex and mysterious concept. Qin Qing may be able to feel it, but he cannot explain it in detail. He originally wanted to set up a picture of the universe, which was considered to have a conclusion of her inner thoughts. After many years with Ying Zheng, how could she really make up her mind and ignore Ying Zheng and his old Qin?
However, for this friendship, Qin Qing lost his life.
In the main hall of Xianyang Palace, there is a golden coffin.
In the empty hall, Ying Zheng was the only one. He stood quietly beside the coffin, looking at Qin Qing who was sleeping kindly in the coffin, and felt a little throbbing in his heart. In the past forty-six years of Ying Zheng, there were two very important women.
Mother Zhao Ji gave everything for him.
However, Ying Zheng could not tolerate that this mother had an affair with several men, and even at the end, she sympathized with her husband to try to threaten his throne. Zhao Ji had already left... Until the day her mother died, Ying Zheng had never visited her again. She was grateful and resentful... But after her mother Zhao Ji left, Ying Zheng felt the emptiness and loneliness she had never had before.
Now, a woman who was extremely concerned about him has left!
Although Qin Qing is not his biological mother, in his heart, it may be more in line with his requirements for the word "mother".
"Zashi Mother!"
His nose was a little sour, and Ying Zheng stroked the coffin with his hand and called softly.
From then on, no one cared for him like Qin Qing... The First Emperor closed his eyes. After a long time, he sighed faintly and walked out of the palace.
"Zhao Gao, I have been entrusted to the world and said that I would hold a funeral for Zhenmu in Xianyang Palace. After the funeral in Xianyang is over, I will be transported to Jiangzhou."
"Here!"
Zhao Gao responded without answering.
He has been in the palace for 11th year of King Zheng of Qin, and it has been twenty-three years since then.
During these twenty-three years, Zhao Gao was used to the bloody storm, and at the same time he also knew the humble feelings of Emperor Qin Qing. What a glory it was for Emperor Qin to personally handle the funeral! He couldn't help but feel a little envious, and stood quietly with his body bowed and his hands were silent.
He knew that His Majesty must have an explanation.
Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Ying Zheng spoke again: "Has the news of Zhen Mother's death been spread to Jiangzhou?"
"In theory, it should have been passed on." Zhao Gao replied cautiously.
"I remember Zhenmu once said that she was going to let Man'er take over the family business. However, Man'er was young, so I was worried that she might not be able to hold on."
Are you worried that Qin Man can’t hold on? Or hope that Qin Man can’t hold on?
Maybe both...
Zhao Gao once again accurately captured the meaning of the words of the First Emperor. So after hesitating for a moment, he replied softly: "Your Majesty, Miss Man is indeed a little too young. Although she is very capable, she is only twenty years old after all. The old slave thought that the people of the Qin family might not necessarily convince her. Moreover, the old slave also heard that before the Qing Dynasty was summoned, he had recruited the Sishui Commander to Jiangzhou.
Seeing the old meaning clearly is to ask Miss Man to marry the Sishui Commander.
In this way, I am afraid that the Qin family members will be even more dissatisfied... If His Majesty does not come forward, Miss Man will probably find it difficult to get to the post."
The First Emperor Ying Zheng was slightly stunned.
"Si Shui Commander? Who is it?"
Although the Sishui Commander was approved by the First Emperor, he was only a little impressed, but not profound.
Zhao Gao quickly replied: "The Sishui Commander was originally from Dongxiang, Pinyang, and was a fellow villager with General Wang Li. However, his ancestors were implicated in the affairs of King Wu and then fled from Guanzhong. He first became a wanderer in Luoyang, and then became a disciple in the family of a wealthy family of Shanfu.
Nowadays, Liu Kan, the commander of Sishui, has been appreciated by the eldest son for his repeated military achievements.
Especially in the Battle of Northern Xinjiang, because he launched a decisive battle, he was named Laozi in Northern Xinjiang. It is said that his military power is amazing and he has the courage to be unstoppable to thousands of men."
"Ah, I remembered it... it's that old man Fuping!" The First Emperor suddenly realized and nodded slightly, "Zhuang once mentioned this person to me, and it seemed that Ren Xiao and Zhuang also valued him quite seriously. Unexpectedly, Old Qing also valued him so much, maybe he had real talents and knowledge."
Having said this, Ying Zheng changed his tone and said to himself: "In a flash, Man'er has reached the age of getting married. I remember that Man'er is two years older than Bai Feng... isn't it?"
"Your Majesty is really good at memory." Zhao Gao glanced at Ying Zheng's face, "Will your Majesty come forward and help Miss Man?"
However, Ying Zheng shook his head gently, "If I come forward, this matter may not be good. After all, it is Zhenmu's family affairs. If Man'er really has the ability, she will definitely be able to solve it easily. But if... this is the case, the officials of Bashu and Shu county officials are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Qin family. It is better for the Qin family to solve the matters of the Qin family themselves. As long as there is no major problem, I will not come forward."
A hint of joy flashed in Zhao Gao's eyes.
In Ying Zheng's seemingly difficult sentence, he heard Ying Zheng's true intention.
In the past, with Qin Qing here, Ying Zheng was indeed not good at interfering in the affairs of Bashu. In addition, the relationship between Qin Qing and Ying Zheng also made Ying Zheng willing to let Qin Qing take control of Bashu. Note that the Qin Qing is talking about here, not the Qin family. In fact, no emperor would want to see that under his own rule, there was a territory that he could not control. When Qin Qing died, it was time to take back the control of Bashu.
But it's hard to say it out.
Now that the Qin family is split, something will inevitably happen.
No matter whether the matter is big or small, the First Emperor could naturally accept Bashu... What is the Qin family affairs, it is just an excuse.
Zhao Gaocai was too lazy to pay attention to who would take charge of the Qin family.
The key is that he just needs to give Qin Meng a little insight into the meaning of the First Emperor. After all, he needs to get money from others to eliminate disasters!
In Zhao Gao's mind, he began to think about how to squeeze more money from Qin Meng.
Ying Zheng turned around and quietly looked at the coffin in the hall, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
At this moment, a little Huangmen hurriedly came to report: "Your Highness Meng Yi, I asked for a meeting outside the palace gate, saying that there was something important to report to Your Majesty."
The First Emperor took a deep breath and calmed his mind.
"Xuan Mengyi's visit!"
Chapter completed!
