Starting a business is difficult, but many people can stick to their hearts when it is hard, but it is easy to sink after making a fortune, and arrogance and lust will appear.

For this reason, Li Si, Jin Yao and others are also on guard against Ying Zhenghui.

How many emperors can be called models of kings in the first half of their lives, but they have also become models of faint kings in the second half of their lives.

"This Afang Palace is too extravagant, isn't it?" Li Si looked at the drawings taken out by the Mo family and looked at Jin Yao with some hesitation.

The area of the entire Afang Palace is too large, and it will take at least three days for a person to walk through all the residences of the Afang Palace.

All the materials are also the most precious in the world, the foundation of the stone has Taishan stone quarried from Mount Tai, there is the white jade of the East China Sea, there is the purple gold of Xishu.

Even the carvings of a corridor are all from the hands of master carvers, not to mention the ornaments in the palace of the first emperor, all of which are rare treasures.

"That's why I asked Your Majesty to personally supervise the construction and personally participate in the construction of Afang Palace!" Jin Yao said lightly.

"What's the point?" Li Si still didn't understand that such a luxurious palace really wouldn't let the emperor sink?

"Do you remember what you looked like when you first arrived in Xinzheng?" Jin Yao asked calmly.

Li Si smiled and nodded, "I never dared to forget!" ”

It was a turning point in his life, how could he forget!

Jin Yao smiled and clapped his hands, and motioned for the black and white Xuanqian to present a painting.

Li Si opened the scroll curiously, and after taking a closer look, he was even more surprised.

The person on the picture scroll is none other than when he entered Xinzheng to confront the Korean courtiers, young and vigorous, and high-spirited.

"I didn't expect that the king still let people keep the paintings of that year!" Li Si didn't expect that someone would draw what he looked like back then.

"At that time, Mr. was in his prime, and he was a young man, who would have thought that Mr. would become the left minister of Great Qin in the future, one person under ten thousand people?" Jin Yao continued.

"This is the current gentleman!" Jin Yao motioned to the black and white Xuanqian Zi to present another picture scroll, and the picture scroll was the appearance of Li Si in the unification ceremony, one person under ten thousand people, and Li Si who looked down on the world.

Many years have passed since the two paintings, and it is hard to believe that the person in the painting is the same person if it is not a familiar person.

Although the appearance has not changed much, the temperament on the body is very different, and it will not be reminiscent of the same person at all.

"I didn't think that the king still remembered, keep it!" Li Si looked at the two picture scrolls, and wanted to come down with Jin Yao, but he didn't know how to speak.

After all, these are the processes of his life's struggle!

"Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, the vicissitudes of life are fleeting, if you are not familiar with people, I am afraid you will be surprised by the changes in Mr. and will sigh."

"But only those closest to you will know the hardships along the way."

Jin Yao said with emotion.

No one can succeed casually, outsiders will only see you when you are down and brilliant when you are famous, but few people will notice the hardships of your journey.

"However, what I want to say is not these, I just want to tell my husband that it is easy for people to get lost in an overnight success, because the foundation is unstable, but only when you come out step by step, you will feel the hardships of the world."

"If Your Majesty does not participate in the construction of Afang Palace, and lives in the Qin Palace and waits to move into Afang Palace, you will be bewildered by the magnificence of Afang Palace, but seeing the construction of Afang Palace with your own eyes, one day at a time, you will not be so shocked, and you will not be confused!"

"It's like parents watching their children grow up, and they always feel that their children are still children, but teenagers have changed from teenagers to adults, but parents don't notice it."

Listening to Jin Yao's words, Li Si understood, the slow change is easy for people to ignore and not notice the change, but when he suddenly turned around, he found that it had changed so much.

Just like the whole world, they are the founders of the empire, and they have never noticed how much the empire has changed, until they suddenly look back and see that the world has been unified, and the empire has become so prosperous and powerful.

"Arrogance and lasciviousness are not a big problem for Your Majesty, I am still worried about birth, old age, sickness and death!" Jin Yao said solemnly.

Old age and death are the most feared existences of kings, and countless Ming monarchs will have a fear of death and old age in their twilight years, so they will make mistakes again and again, causing the reputation accumulated in the first half of their lives to collapse in an instant.

Especially for an emperor like Ying Zheng, who already knows that he has a heart disease, if Ying Zheng is afraid of death and old age, no one knows how his heart will change.

"Your Majesty is saying that the king's heart will be worn out by old age and death, and fear will arise?" Li Si also became solemn.

It is normal for people to be afraid of old age and death, even if it is the first emperor of the ages, the first emperor, is also a human being, and naturally there will be fear.

"It's not a worry, it's already there!" Jin Yao became solemn.

"Lu Sheng?" Li Si is not only concerned about the work of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but also pays attention to what happens in the palace.

In the past two years, a group of alchemists who were originally in Yan Kingdom came to Xianyang and fooled the First Emperor to find the method of immortality.

And the First Emperor seems to have some belief that there is really an elixir of longevity and a method of immortality in the world, and even let this group of alchemists stay in the Qin Palace for this reason, and also made a few people led by him a marquis.

"Hmm!" Jin Yao nodded.

During that time, himself, Li Mu, and Li Si were all outside, and they couldn't stop the admonition at the first time, and when they returned to Xianyang, it was already a foregone conclusion.

"Imperial Doctor Feng Quji has been impeached many times, but he has been suppressed by His Majesty!" Jin Yao continued.

This is Feng Quji's report after he returned to Xianyang, even if there is opposition from Feng Quji, Guo Kai, Meng Yi and Zhang Han, but Yingzheng still goes his own way and can't listen to any opposition.

"Is there really a way to live forever?" Li Si looked at Jin Yao and asked hesitantly.

If you haven't seen Fang Cheng and those immortal celestials, you may not have a deep feeling for Ying Zheng, but now it's different, just above the court, there are several celestials.

If Yingzheng doesn't have any ideas, then it's really abnormal.

"Maybe there is, maybe not, but no one has been able to solve the mystery of heaven and immortality!" Jin Yao shook his head.

"No immortals!" Jin Yao thought for a while and then continued.

"There is no immortal in this world, and the longer it appears in the world, the more it will be infected."

"Wu Anjun Li Mu, as the first person in the world, is now also riddled with diseases, even doctors can't find any causes!" Jin Yao said solemnly.

At first, he thought that Li Mu was lazy and excused himself, but after seeing Li Mu in person, he found that Li Mu's realm was falling, and unknown diseases were also spreading in him.
