On the cold street, a dilapidated carriage left the Zhao Mansion and stumbled out of the city.

The driver was a rather handsome young man, and a middle-aged man was sitting in the carriage.

"Master, you said that Zhao Gao is narrow-minded and has a strong desire for power, even if he gains power in the future, I'm afraid he won't achieve the goal you expect, why not change someone to support him!" The young man asked as he drove the car.

"Hehe, what am I supporting him for, I'm just stimulating his desires, this kind of person is not worth supporting!" The middle-aged man said with a smile.

"Then if it weren't for our support, wouldn't his master's plan for several years be in vain if he didn't succeed?" The young man turned back in bewilderment.

"It doesn't matter if he succeeds or not, our purpose is just to make Great Qin chaotic, King Qin reuses Li Si to make great efforts, and now he dominates the Chinese countries, which is an unprecedented situation, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a groundbreaking achievement, but whether it is Zhao Zheng or the Manchu Dynasty, it is still trying to use the way to govern the Qin State, and use harsh laws to forcibly govern a huge country, Zhao Zheng has empty ambitions, and tries to govern the Great Qin into a copper and iron country inherited for all generations, but he does not know how to govern the country at all, The Manchu Dynasty civil and military actually don't understand, they are following Zhao Zheng's ideas to continue to implement the harsh law, this is like a person vainly trying to push a huge snowball up the mountain, this big snowball is pushing bigger and bigger, the power of the backlash is bound to get bigger and bigger, a little negligence The snowball will inevitably roll down and crush people to death, if this person is strong enough, this snowball may be pushed very high, but no one can see the end where the top of the mountain is, and when the manpower is finally exhausted, Zhao Gao's existence is like a hidden disease in this person, as long as this hidden disease erupts, That is, when the snowball rolls down, when Daqin collapses, and when Zhao Gao dies, he wants to become the second Lü Buwei, but he can't even compare to Lü Buwei, the higher he climbs, the worse he will die after all. ”

"Then what's in it for us, if Zhao Gao doesn't succeed, then wouldn't our Mo family be able to regain its former glory?" Young people are even more puzzled.

The middle-aged man shook his head, "We don't need the glory of the past anymore, Juzi has now obtained the Juzi order, and has gathered hundreds of ink disciples to gather in the East China Sea, just wait for the big ship to be built and go to sea, the country of the Central Plains is not the place where my Mo family will stay for a long time!" ”

"Huh?!" The young man's face was demented, and the whip in his hand almost fell to the ground with the jolting of the carriage.

"There is a human disaster like Zhao Gao, Daqin wants to inherit the eternal life is just a dream, my Mo family is sympathetic to the people and the people of the world, but in the face of the evil beast of Daqin, there is nothing to do, only to help Zhao Gao This kind of person to speed up the speed of this disaster, the embankment of thousands of miles is destroyed in the anthill, once Daqin collapses, China will inevitably be in chaos, so Juzi wants to lead my Mo family disciples to the sea to find a place outside the world to avoid this catastrophe, slowly accumulate strength, and return to the Central Plains when the time is ripe!"

The carriage bumped all the way out of the city gate, a round of golden red sun hung in the sky, the mountain danced silver snake original gallop wax statue, the endless Weihe Plain and the rolling mountains and mountains like a giant dragon crawling on the land of China.

"Take a good look at this Huaxia country!" The middle-aged man looked at the picturesque thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in front of him, and his eyes were full of reluctance.

"Master, can we not leave? Even though Great Qin is not good, once we leave, we will become rootless from now on. The young man hesitated for a long time and said in a hoarse voice.

"Don't worry, we will come back, ten years, one hundred years, one thousand years, this is our hometown after all!"

……

At the end of the day, Chen Xu came out of the inner courtyard of the palace, and this time there were only two palace people to accompany him.

Because the eldest prince couldn't leave, he was playing mahjong with Qin Shihuang and Concubine Zheng in Concubine Zheng's bedroom.

Through the situation after entering the palace today, Chen Xu's words yesterday still worked very well, Qin Shi Huang not only stayed in Concubine Zheng's dormitory, but also estimated that he took advantage of the wine to do something else last night, plus the snow was cold, he got up late today, and then did not leave Concubine Zheng's bedroom, the two of them had breakfast together very affectionately, and the eldest prince Fusu also took mahjong to offer treasures, but I didn't expect Qin Shihuang to be very interested in playing with him, but because Fusu only learned it soon yesterday, he had to sacrifice Chen Xu again.

Concubine Zheng's complexion looks much better today, there are some ruddy colors on her thin cheeks, and she does have a refreshed look, I heard that she ate a bun and a bowl of porridge with bean sprouts and tofu for breakfast, and also ate two pieces of stinky tofu, it seems that the symptoms of anorexia have been reduced a lot.

And taking advantage of the opportunity to play mahjong, Chen Xu discussed some health knowledge with Qin Shi Huang, and promoted the benefits of playing mahjong as a simple and easy entertainment.

Looking at Qin Shi Huang's attitude towards Concubine Zheng, it seems that he is approaching Chen Xu's expectations step by step, although the eight characters have not yet been skimmed, but this beginning is gratifying.

Changing Daqin, starting from bit by bit, accumulated in three or five years, many things will eventually come to fruition.

And this kind of thing can't be rushed, as long as Qin Shi Huang's favor to Concubine Zheng is enough, and the opportunity is ripe, and then knock on the side to persuade him, maybe Qin Shi Huang will be moved and agree to make Concubine Zheng the queen, and Fusu will be justified as the eldest son of the emperor to become the crown prince.

But he was not in a hurry, but at this time someone was already going crazy.

Outside a gate at the junction of the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard of the palace, Zhao Qing was like an ant on a hot pot spinning around in the snow, jumping around urgently, and a pair of eyes kept looking at the exit of the inner courtyard gate.

Zhao Qing is a regular attendant, he can enter the palace at any time to play to the emperor, but he can only stop at the outer courtyard, the inner courtyard of the palace is the place where the emperor's concubines live, except for the people in the Shaofu, no one can step further without the emperor's permission, otherwise there is an attempt to cuckold the emperor, and he will be bounced to death.

"Hou Ye has an accident~" Seeing Chen Xu come out, Zhao Qing, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly rushed up.

"What's the matter?" Chen Xu's heart tightened and he hurriedly asked.

"Half an hour ago, the soldiers on the construction site outside the city came to report that the iron-making furnace built on the construction site had been crushed by snow, and several slaves and helpers had died, and the public had lost and been injured......

"What?" Chen Xu's face changed greatly, and he grabbed Zhao Qing's arm and asked repeatedly, "What is the situation now?" ”

"Master Hou, it's not clear yet, I've asked Yingbu to lead the Guards Forbidden Army to check the situation first, now there is three feet of snow outside the city, and it is extremely difficult to walk, I'm afraid it will take an hour to come and go, and now they should have arrived at the construction site!" Zhao Qing said anxiously.

"Let's go!" Chen Xu didn't dare to delay, and directly left the two palace people and hurried away with Zhao Qing.

Sure enough, as Zhao Qing said, the snow outside the city is too deep, although there are cars and horses and pedestrians in and out of the city to trample and run over, but the road to the construction site is almost difficult to walk, there is a long trace of horses trampling on the snow, at this time the weather is clear, riding on a horse can even see the shadow of the construction site ten miles away.

With Yu Wuya, Zhao Qing and more than a dozen guards of the Hou Mansion riding all the way down the river bank on horseback, the so-called Wangshan ran a dead horse, ten miles on weekdays seemed not far, but now the heavy snow blocked the road, and it took nearly an hour to arrive at the construction site.

The soldiers waiting in the gatehouse of the construction site saw Chen Xu and others, and hurriedly moved the fence to let them go, and the group rushed to the iron-making workshop non-stop, and sure enough, they saw that an iron-making furnace had collapsed in the heavy snow, and the stones and bricks were scattered in a radius of dozens of zhang, and there were blood stains everywhere, and seven or eight corpses were placed on the ground of a work shed, and many ragged workers and slaves were standing tremblingly in the snow, the scene was chaotic, and seeing Chen Xu riding over with a black face, they all knelt on the ground and trembled in fright.

"What's going on? How many died? What about winning or losing? What is the injury? ”

"Back to the Hou Ye, the iron-making furnace suddenly collapsed, five of the slaves under construction died, three of the helpers died, seven were injured, the leg of the public lost was smashed, and the waist was also injured, and it has been sent to the medical room!" Yingbu, who came in advance to check the situation, hurriedly replied.

"Detain all the craftsmen, slaves, helpers, and overseers involved in the construction of this iron-making furnace, and not a single one shall be left out!"

"Oh~" Yingbu hurriedly surrendered his hand, and then scolded the soldiers around him and began to check the personnel involved in the construction of this iron-making furnace.

When Chen Xu rushed to the medical room and watched the gong lying on the kang win, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The injury was not too serious, one leg was smashed by a falling brick, fortunately the bone was not broken, the waist was also smashed, and the clothes were thick in winter.

In addition, four slaves and three helpers were injured, the injuries varied from severity, two of them were still unconscious, their bodies were smashed with flesh and blood, and they looked miserable, but several slaves were only treated briefly and then left in a cold shack next to the infirmary and left unattended.

"Who did this, such a serious injury is not bandaged and put here to be frozen!" Chen Xu only glanced at the two seriously injured slaves and became furious.

"Master Hou, these are just two slaves, and their hands and feet have been severely injured, even if they are rescued, it is useless! I commanded them to be thrown here. A middle-aged man in a leather jacket said unhurriedly.

"Bold, who are you, dare to ignore the construction site system I have formulated!" Chen Xu was furious, his eyes staring directly at the young man coldly.

"Zhou Xing, a subordinate of the medical team, is the steward of the medical team......"

"Hehe, Zhou Xing, you are not small, you dare to ignore the construction site safety system I have formulated, and discard the seriously injured at will, you can go back, and you won't use it in my academy in the future!" Chen Xu pointed to the direction of the gate of the construction site with the horsewhip in his hand and said.

"You...... Why are you driving me away, the imperial doctor ordered it to be my father'......" Zhou Xing was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he jumped up and said.

"Get him out!" Chen Xu didn't bother to look at the goods, and hurriedly ordered the accompanying guards to carry the two seriously injured slaves into the medical room and put them on the ondol, and then let the healer carefully clean the wounds and bandage them again and take medicine.
