Chapter 371: You can only play dead
"Qinghe Hou don't need to get up, I'm already in!"
With a deep baritone voice, Qin Shi Huang, dressed in a black dragon-patterned brocade robe, had already appeared at the door accompanied by two middle attendants, and then walked straight into the room with a smile on his face.
"Meet Your Majesty~" Several little maids in the room hurriedly knelt down and bowed.
Chen Xu also hurriedly put on his shoes, wiped his hands on his body a few times, and hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty forgives your sins, and the ministers are far away!" ”
"Don't be polite, I'm a little idle today, I heard that Qinghe Hou has recovered and can walk on the ground, so all of them came to visit!" Qin Shi Huang walked to the side of the kang very familiarly, and sat on the kang with both hands on the brocade robe.
"Stand down, hurry up and serve tea!" Chen Xu commanded, and after watching a few little maids and Huangfu Que leave, he was slightly embarrassed and said to Qin Shi Huang, "I don't know that Your Majesty is suddenly coming, please forgive me for my negligence!" ”
"Don't worry about Qinghehou, come here, send the reward in!" Qin Shi Huang commanded with a smile.
"Oh~" There was a neat answer outside the door, and then a team of beautiful girls in colorful skirts and a team of palace people lined up to enter, each holding a variety of exquisite boxes in their hands.
"Two pairs of phoenix-patterned jade!"
"Two pairs of phoenix-patterned jade pendants!"
"Eight jade cups!"
"Two boxes of agate gems of all colors!"
"A pair of golden pots!"
"Two corals!"
"A pair of phoenix-patterned jade hairpins!"
"A pair of phoenix-patterned hostas!"
As a palace man continued to recite the holy decree in his hand, the items brought in were soon filled with a kang, and the boxes were all opened, revealing the colorful gold and jade jewels inside, which shimmered with dazzling multicolored light in the light shining through the window.
"This ...... Your Majesty, you have rewarded your ministers with so many valuables, and your ministers are terrified! Chen Xu looked at the gold, silver, jewelry, and coral jade that were full of kang, and felt that his heart was in a mess, there must be a reason why the emperor suddenly sent so many rare treasures for no reason.
He had already been rewarded for inventing new horses and horses, not only gold and jade, but also slave horses, and a large grange outside the city, where craftsmen and convicts were now being organized to build houses.
And he used the so-called immortal art to save Princess Qingning in a daze, and the Yellow Emperor has already rewarded it, and it is also a few carts of jewelry and silk, and the housekeeper who was lying on the bed a few days ago has already read it next to each other with the gift list given by the emperor.
Today's emperor is even more outrageous, nothing to run to his own house to stuff rewards, and so many so precious, today's rewards are completely different from the quality of the past, not to mention in pairs, everything is exquisite and luxurious, snow white as mutton fat jade jade pendant not to say, in this era, jade is precious, but compared with two half-meter-high red corals, the preciousness is a bit small, after all, the stone grows on the mountain, and such a big coral grows in the sea water more than ten meters deep, It's absolutely very difficult to get to it, and it's in such good condition and so brightly colored, it's not an exaggeration to say it's worth a lot of money.
As the saying goes, if you have nothing to do, you will be a traitor or a thief, and this special one will definitely not be good!
The more Chen Xu thought about it, the more uneasy he became, the expression on his face became more and more weird, and his smile gradually became a little distorted.
"Qinghe Hou doesn't like these mundane things?" Qin Shi Huang has read countless people, so he can naturally see that Chen Xu is smiling very reluctantly.
"Your Majesty, the minister is also an ordinary man, it's not that he doesn't like these gold and jade jewelry, it's just that these rewards are too valuable, and the minister is a little panicked in his heart!" Chen Xu said with a wry smile.
"It's good that the Marquis of Qinghe likes it, although I am the emperor of the world, but I only have these mundane gold and jade things as a reward, so don't be afraid, I will bring a person today, who is similar to the age of the Marquis of Qinghe, and you can get closer in the future!" Shiyan, come in and meet the Marquis of Qinghe! ”
Qin Shi Huang waved his hand and greeted the door, and he heard a sound of clanging rings, and a beautiful girl wearing a flying fairy bun and wearing a colorful group slowly walked in from outside the door surrounded by several palace maids.
"Ying Shiyan meets the Marquis of Qinghe!" Walking into the room, the girl greeted Chen Xuying.
Looking at this fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, fair-skinned and dignified-looking, with a blushing face, Chen Xu suddenly chuckled in his heart, felt his heart shrink into a ball, stared at the girl blankly for a long time before he came to his senses, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Chen Xu has seen Princess Huayu!" ”
"The gift of the Marquis of Qinghe dare not accept it!" The girl hurriedly turned sideways and saluted again, and at the same time, a pair of beautiful eyes secretly fell on Chen Xu, and her cheeks were even redder with shame.
Nima drops a gourd scoop!
Chen Xu suddenly came to his senses, and at the same time understood why the emperor wanted to stuff so many peerless jewels into himself today for no reason, and the jewels were all phoenix names, so he wanted to marry his daughter.
Coming to Xianyang for more than a month, although Chen Xu is mainly soaked in the Academy of Sciences and factories on weekdays, or he is hiding at home to study eating and drinking, and basically does not go out of the door, just like the little lady who has not been out of the cabinet in later generations, he is very strict with women's morals, but after all, he has to mix under the nose of Qin Shi Huang, and he has to go in and out of the palace frequently, so he has carefully studied Qin Shi Huang and his family, and there is Zhao Qing, a regular attendant, as a deputy, many situations will be clear as long as he asks.
How many wives does Qin Shi Huang have, those are more beautiful, those are more sassy, and those are more demonic, Chen Xu naturally disdains to inquire, not because he doesn't want to inquire, but because he asks too much, he doesn't dare to guarantee that Zhao Qing, the second or fifth boy, will not go to Qin Shi Huang to make a small report, and it is likely that the emperor's wife is not in danger.
Therefore, Qin Shi Huang did not know how many women Chen Xu had.
But it is easy to find out how many sons and daughters Qin Shi Huang has, and these things are almost well-known to the residents of Xianyang, and some families in the market are almost talking about it.
For example, Qin Shi Huang has an eldest daughter named Yuan Yan, the princess of Liyang.
It is rumored that he and Gao gradually have a leg, and the relationship between the two is irreversible, and they often study music together in Liyang Palace, so the relationship is a little unclear.
And it is rumored that Princess Liyang fell off a horse and broke her leg, becoming a lame, although she was gentle and beautiful, but Qin Shi Huang didn't like it, so Princess Liyang fell in love with music in her loneliness, and hid in the palace all day long to play the piano and play music, and Gao Yanli deliberately approached Princess Liyang in order to avenge her friend Jing Ke, and then approached Qin Shi Huang, but Qin Shi Huang blinded Gao Yanli's eyes for his own safety, but this did not stop Gao Yanli's determination to assassinate Qin Shi Huang, he secretly hid lead in the building, Increasing the weight of the building, he tried to smash Qin Shi Huang to death with the building when Qin Shi Huang listened to it the most, but unfortunately he didn't hit it, so Gao Yanli was killed by Qin Shi Huang, and Princess Liyang also committed suicide after hearing the news.
Of course, this is a wild history, and Chen Xu confirmed his judgment.
Because there are no rumors between Gao Yanli and Princess Liyang in later generations, it is obvious that the folk like this kind of gossip about the royal family, and Zhao Qing also said that Princess Liyang did not have a leg disease at all but a heart disease, after the failure of General Li Yan's war against Chu, Qin Shi Huang married Princess Liyang to Wang Jian in order to invite Wang Jian out of the mountain, and Wang Jian was fifty-five years old at the time, and Princess Liyang was only eighteen years old, and Princess Liyang died of heart attack less than a year after marrying.
And in terms of time, it is completely incorrect, because Gao Yanli's assassination of Qin Shi Huang was the year before last, just the year before Chen Xu crossed over, and Wang Jian and Chu were five years ago, and it was impossible for Qin Shi Huang to marry a dead daughter to Wang Qian.
But the death of Princess Liyang is certain.
In addition to Princess Liyang, Qin Shi Huang also has several daughters, the second daughter Huayin Princess Ying Yin, the third daughter Huating Princess Ying Yin, the fourth daughter Huaqing Princess Ying Jiman is now married, and the married are all the children of the Shi clan and the princes and princesses, and the teenage girl in front of her is Qin Shi Huang's fifth daughter Huayu Princess Ying Shiyan, fifteen years old, the most sweet and dignified appearance, and I heard that she can sing and dance, Xianyang residents call it the fifth princess, and there are a few princesses left, it is estimated that they are still very young, Ranging from seven or eight years old to more than ten years old.
Looking at the fifth princess's blushing cheeks and flashing peeping eyes, Chen Xu felt that the hairs all over his body exploded.
His wife has long been decided, that is, the water is gentle, and after more than a year of getting along, she can hardly tolerate any woman in her heart.
The water is gentle and not only beautiful, but also her independent and resolute character, gentle and independent, just like a clear spring, Chen Xu's heart has completely melted.
But the emperor's current intention, Chen Xu can think of it even if he uses chrysanthemums.
He brought his most beautiful daughter to his house, definitely not to show off to Chen Xu, but for a clear purpose.
Marrying, it is impossible, at least Chen Xu is not the kind of superficial person who has to be a concubine, he is now famous in Great Qin, and with the protection of the identity of a disciple of the immortal family, Qin Shi Huang will definitely not touch him casually.
But if you don't marry, it will definitely make Qin Shi Huang unable to come to Taiwan, as an emperor through the ages, even if he agrees with the identity of Chen Xu's immortal disciple, but since Chen Xu can't give him immortality, it's useless to take it, you can't kill it, but you don't need it, it is directly for Xianyang to eat and drink, Taiyi Xianzun thinks that there is no reason to use thunder to split him, to conquer the world, there are not many Chen Xu, there are not many without Chen Xu, Daqin is still his world after all, Qin Shi Huang is confident that he can get rid of Baiyue and the Huns.
Once this kind of thing happens, all of Chen Xu's previous plans will be declared in vain, and his wish to avoid a tragic flesh-and-blood cannibalism and to assist Qin Shi Huang to build Great Qin into a powerful and prosperous empire will not be completed at all.
And when this happens, history may return to its original trajectory again, and when Qin Shi Huang dies, maybe Hu Hai will come to power again, and then Qin Shi Huang's sons and daughters will all be brutally killed by Zhao Gao and Hu Hai, and the bright-eyed little girl in front of him will also be brutally dismembered and killed in Duzhen, and some of the grandchildren who stayed behind were all killed after Xiang Yu entered Xianyang, and the Zhao family, as the first emperor of the ages, completely disappeared in the territory of China.
If you want to save Daqin, does Lao Tzu really want to be a colt with a clear conscience.
What if it's so gentle?
Will she be sad when she finds out?
Will it leave itself?
Where will she go?
Hiding alone in the mountains, cultivating the true Tao, and dying alone?
No, no...... Lao Tzu will never allow this to happen.
Thinking about the time the two of them have been together, thinking that the water is gentle, and the sweater that Hu Kuan sent to him is still wearing on him at this time.
Chen Xu felt that his temples were beating suddenly, his mind was chaotic like paste, his heart was beating with him, and he felt that the whole world was full of the sound of surging blood, and then his body fell down softly as soon as he shook it.
"Qinghe Hou ......"
"Lord Hou......"
"Come on, Hou Ye has fainted!"
"Rapid Transmission of the Imperial Doctor......
Chen Xu was lying on the ground with his eyes closed, and he heard an instant mess in the room.
At present, it is a last resort, and only by pretending to be sick can we prevaricate the past, and this kind of thing will be delayed for a while.
He can pretend to be deaf and dumb to Jiangbei Pavilion, but to Qin Shi Huang, he can only pretend to be dead.
