Chapter 255: Ying Zheng issued an edict to build a palace quickly

Ying Zheng didn't ask about the progress of the construction of Afang Palace for a long time, but today he suddenly asked, which also made Meng Yi a little dazed, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he had to lie on the ground and not answer the question.

The atmosphere in the palace became very quiet due to Ying Zheng's questioning, and Zhao Gao hurriedly handed Ying Zheng a cup of warm tea when he saw this, "Meng Shangqing thought that he didn't know that the king would suddenly ask about it, so he couldn't help but be a little hasty." ”

"Now that Kui Lin has resigned, Meng Shangqing is in charge of all important prisons, and what Zhao Gao said is also reasonable, but Afang Gongxiu should not be so slow." Ying Zheng said with some displeasure.

Meng Yi's quality is the reason, if he said it, it would inevitably be a little wronged to Fu Su Gongzi, so he didn't dare to answer, and when he saw Yingzheng asking again and again, he had to answer truthfully.

"Your Majesty, half of the 500,000 people used in Afang Palace have been repatriated, so the construction is still continuing, and the king should think deeply about the matter of moving." Meng Yi said without confidence.

Ying Zheng was furious when he heard this, the things that were arranged a few years ago can't be moved in now, it's really a bit incredible, "Don't talk about the whole palace for the time being, it's just a front hall, why spend so much energy, I won't pursue this matter with you, and you say that there are tens of thousands of people building Afang Palace now?" ”

"Your Majesty, where the new law is implemented, 100,000 people have been repatriated, plus the old slaves have returned to their hometowns in recent years, and there are less than 80,000 left." Meng Yi said thoughtfully.

Yingzheng in front of the palace was silent after hearing this, what can 80,000 people do, even if the Afang Palace is not built well, let alone the construction of the palace.

But Ying Zheng longed for a real person in his heart, how could he be willing to delay, and immediately paced back and forth in the fairy palace, his face was erratic, "Meng Shangqing, you go and order, be sure to let Xiangguo recently recruit 100,000 conscripts to fill the vacancy, prune quickly, and there must be no delay for a moment." ”

It's just a sentence, that is, to recruit 100,000 conscripts, Meng Yi didn't dare to refute at all, so he had to retreat, and then Yingzheng moved back to the Xianyang Palace, and no one knew about the entry and exit, which was very mysterious.

When Donggong Fusu heard this, he was even more surprised, now that the flood in the south and the drought in the north have just eased, and he has to recruit 100,000 conscripts, it is simply not giving the people a way to live.

Meng Yi was beside Fusu and didn't dare to speak at all, "Meng Shangqing, you have summoned Ziyu and Xiangguo, this matter is very important, and it needs to be discussed in the long run." ”

"However, the king said that there could be no delay, and according to the character of Xiangguo, he would definitely be forced to recruit conscription as he did last time when he built the Immortal Palace, so that the people were resentful." Meng Yi said helplessly.

Fusu was silent, just waved his hand at Meng Yi, signaling him to act quickly, it was also a coincidence, Meng Yi met with Lu Yan as soon as he left the palace.

It turned out that the matter ordered by Yingzheng was drafted into an edict by Zhao Gao and issued by the attendants, so it was known to the entire Xianyang, and it was to let Xiangguo levy conscription, so Li Si was very frightened, so he found Lu Yan and came to Fusu to discuss.

In the East Palace, the four of them sat down one after another, each silent, "Fusu Gongzi, you have to think of a foolproof strategy, the last time to recruit 30,000 people's husbands is already an extreme thing, and now that the disaster has just eased, how can you recruit 100,000 servants, do things like this, I don't know how many people are ruined." ”

"I don't know about this, but now my father is haunted in the Xianyang Palace, and I can't see each other at all." Fusu held the teacup, his face was very helpless.

"After all, the root cause is that Lu Sheng and others are deceived by the Holy Hearing, and before they are conscripted, Lu Sheng and others should be driven away first, and the Fang Shi will be in chaos." Lu Yan also said with a dull face.

The three of them listened, but they were silent, this matter is really a bit difficult to do, Lu Sheng is a little smarter than Hou Sheng after all, and this strategy is also to prevent Ying Zheng from contacting the minister and admonishing the king for the wrong thing.

"Don't be like this, then Zhao Gao has always been not on good terms with Hou Sheng, if it weren't for Lu Sheng's maneuvering from it, it would have broken down a long time ago, and now the waiter has come to report, saying that Lu Sheng is also dissatisfied with Zhao Gao, and it won't be long before Zhao Gao is contacted, and the king's position will be said, and our important ministers will enter the palace to advise, so the method is the safest." Lu Yan then said.

"This method is good, but now that 100,000 conscripts are urgently called, it will be solved after all, right?" Li Si said with a frown.

Meng Yi scratched his head beside him, and there seemed to be a deep groan on his face, "It's better to transfer the conscription of the Lishan Imperial Mausoleum, now there are 200,000 conscripts in the Imperial Mausoleum, there should be no situation when they are transferred, the king has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and I have not reported the number of conscripts in the Imperial Mausoleum, and the matter will definitely be done." ”

After listening to what Meng Yi said, Lu Yan and others also felt reasonable, there was no other way, now the Quartet is disturbed, many people are displaced and have not yet settled, and it is a taboo for the empire to recruit conscription, after the matter is discussed, a few people left, but Fusu's face is still very sad, Lu Sheng and others are one day, the country is not stable after all.

Let's say that in the Xianyang Palace, even if there is a gap in things, in addition to Lu Sheng and Hou Sheng, the two scholars who follow Yingzheng every day, there is also Zhao Gao, who is in charge of many matters in the harem.

Although the official position is not among the Jiuqing, but the power is really not small, Lu Sheng is not in Xianyang, and he naturally knows very little about the official position, so he only thinks that Zhao Gao is a eunuch, and he usually calls for things.

Zhao Gao has been an official in the court for many years, how can he endure such a presumptuous man, but he has not found an opportunity, a few days ago, the king issued an edict to levy 100,000 servitudes, which is an excellent opportunity.

In the afternoon after autumn, Ying Zheng cultivated himself as usual, that is, closed his eyes and meditated, and admired the real person, so Zhao Gao took advantage of this time to write a letter to Lu Yan to tell the king where he was.

Lu Yan, who had been in the palace for a long time, heard Zhao Gao's letter, and he had already expected it in his heart. Although the two broke up, for now, it was still good on the surface, and Zhao Gao did not particularly hate Lu Yan.

The letter clearly stated where Yingzheng was in the harem, how Lu Yan dared to be lazy, and immediately instructed the servants to notify the three dukes and nine qings to meet with a certain place and meet the king together.

Fusu is naturally among them, and the other most important people are Lu Yan, Li Si, Wang Xuan, Feng Zheng, and Nesteng, and the rest only need to report the way.

At the harem of Xianyang, Lu Sheng and others were copying ancient books next to Yingzheng, and when they saw many ministers coming from the window, they were also shocked in their hearts, and at the same time looked at Zhao Gao with some suspicion.

Zhao Gao just sneered and didn't answer, "Little Fangshi, I can't help but think too highly of myself." He secretly said in his heart, and then counted the time to pour tea.

At the end of the meditation, Ying Zheng opened his eyes a little lazily, and heard the orderly footsteps outside the window, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled, "Who is outside, Zhao Gao knows?" ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers don't know." He knelt down very respectfully.

At this time, Fusu first walked towards the palace, and without waiting for the attendant to report, he came directly to Yingzheng's inner room, "The courtier Fusu visited his father, and he lived forever." ”
