Chapter 399: Xu Fu: The opportunity has arrived

"Your Royal Highness, the old minister has been practicing medicine for decades, and he has never seen a woman in such a healthy body, all of them are full of qi and blood, better than a soldier in the army, not at all like they have been pregnant for months, and the fetus in the womb is also in excellent condition, far beyond what ordinary women ......are carrying."

When the First Emperor heard this, he immediately opened his old arms and nodded with a smile.

"Xiahou Aiqing, it's been ...... hard work"

Speaking of this, the First Emperor admonished again.

"However, on the side of the emperor's eldest grandson, you still need to think a little more about it, and you must not have any accidents."

Xia Wu bowed down.

"The old minister should do his best."

When Xia Wuhe went down with the medicine bag, the First Emperor turned his head and ordered left and right.

"Go and inform the queen mother, let her go to the emperor's eldest grandson a few more times during this time......"

After speaking, he let the left and right and sent some precious supplements to the emperor's grandson's mansion, which was counted as a stop.

Looking back at Hei with a smile in the corner of his eyes, he smiled.

"Don't laugh at me for messing up - since Ying'er left, I have felt more and more involuntary during this time, these days, the amount of food has decreased, and even the sleep is a little unsteady, I'm afraid it won't last long, my current thoughts are to see Ying'er give birth to my great-grandson as soon as possible, and at that time, I can rest assured that I will be able to hand over this burden to him......"

Before the First Emperor's words fell, Hei was already so frightened that he bowed down.

"Your Majesty, don't say these frustrating words, you are just too tired during this time, let Mr. Xiahou help you recuperate for a while, and there will be no problem......"

The First Emperor waved his hand and interrupted Hei.

"My body, I know ...... in my heart"

After speaking, he sighed lightly and looked thoughtfully in the direction where the East China Sea was. After being silent for a long time, he asked seemingly unintentionally.

"Is there any news from the fourth son?"

Hei looked at the tired First Emperor, and a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, but the tone in his mouth was still respectful.

"Back to Your Majesty, I just received a letter from Fujian today, fifteen days ago, Gongzi Gao had already taken a big ship and led the army from Yingzhou to Fusang, I believe that news will come soon......"

"Fuso, ah......"

The First Emperor nodded slightly.

Standing up, he looked at the overseas map in front of the imperial case, and looked at it for a long time before he looked back at Hei, who was standing with his hands hanging down.

"You said, is there really a fairy in this overseas immortal mountain?"

Black was silent for a long time.

"The old minister doesn't know, but maybe there is, otherwise where did Xu Xianshi get this chart......

The eyes of the First Emperor seemed to flash with a glimmer of light.

Nodding slightly.

Suddenly remembered something, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked lightly.

"That idiot in the fourth son's family, how is it now......

"In recent days, several banquets have been held, and even the eighteenth prince has received her invitation, and he has also learned from His Royal Highness the Emperor Grandson to open a recruitment hall, saying that it is to recruit guests......"

A hint of sarcasm flashed in the First Emperor's eyes.

"It's really hard to ...... for her"

Speaking of this, the First Emperor tapped lightly on the table and looked at the black on the side.

"How many talents has she gathered during this time, and what are they all ......?"

"Your Majesty, Mrs. Zheng's side has been more lively recently, and between the months and months, nearly 100 guests have been recruited......"

Speaking of this, Hei's tone paused slightly, and then he bowed his head and said.

"Most of them are roosters and dog thieves, and they have no talent, they just want to take the opportunity to cling to the door of the fourth prince and mix some wealth, but there are also suspected that there are those traitors who have been mixed in, and they have been appreciated by Mrs. Zheng, may I ask Your Majesty, do you want to close the net......"

When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. With a deep groan, he shook his head slightly.

"Don't worry, let's take a look, don't startle the snake......"

There was no joy or anger on the face of the First Emperor.

"Did she give someone to the Marquis of Jingbian and the Lieutenant of Yanbei County recently?"

Black nodded.

In the past few days, Jingbianhou has picked up Mrs. Zheng's maiden niece, and Mrs. Zheng took the opportunity to send more than 20 carefully selected doormen to Jingbianhou, plus the last batch, it is close to forty. As for General Xiang Yu's side, he also sent more than 20 talents who were proficient in internal affairs and the art of war, saying that it was for the bride of the female son-in-law......"

The First Emperor nodded slightly, turned his head and smiled.

"It seems that my good daughter-in-law is a capable person, and I can't imagine that in a short period of time, I can help me gather so many talents - I can't chill her mind......"

Speaking of which, he commanded Hei.

"When you go back, go to the treasury and pick out some jewels and fine brocades, and send them to her in person, and say that it is my reward......

"No!"

Hei turned around and was about to go down to prepare, and as soon as he took a few steps, he heard the First Emperor behind him, and added lightly.

"You can give a little hint to some people - my good daughter-in-law, who has been busy for so long, can't fail to do something, I have to help her increase her momentum, so that the rats hiding in the shadows can see some hope......"

Hei knew it in his heart, and went straight down to make arrangements.

……

Looking at the rewards all over the courtyard, Mrs. Zheng couldn't hide a smile between her eyebrows, except for the New Year's holidays, many young people in her house have not been rewarded by His Majesty.

However, although he was extremely happy in his heart, he did not dare to have any disrespect for the chief manager of the Black Ice Terrace, who was the most trusted by the First Emperor's side.

"Hei Lao, I've worked hard for you this time, you might as well stay and drink a cup of tea......"

Hei smiled and arched his hand, very politely refused.

"Don't dare, it's the duty of the minister to run for Your Majesty, Your Majesty is still waiting for the minister's reply, so I won't bother......"

Speaking of which, Black glanced back at the reward behind him and said pointedly.

"Madame is knowledgeable, has vision, and cares about family affection, Your Majesty is very pleased......"

Mrs. Zheng's heart moved, and she bowed to the black very gratefully.

"Thank you for the ......"

Hei bowed slightly, and floated away with a few palace maid guards who followed him.

It wasn't until Hei and the others' carriage disappeared that Mrs. Zheng withdrew her gaze and returned to the mansion happily with the slaves at home. Sure enough, His Majesty was very satisfied with his behavior of being kind to the Eighteen Princes' Mansion, and even specially asked Hei Lao to send a reward.

Since then, Mrs. Zheng seems to have fallen into the eyes of the first emperor, and someone in the palace has sent rewards every once in a while.

After a long time, some smart people in Xianyang City "smelled" the wind and felt that things were changing.

Some people began to take the initiative to visit the Four Princes' Mansion. The power of the Fourth Prince's Mansion began to change visibly with the naked eye, just like the eighteenth prince Hu Hai back then, and his power began to expand rapidly.

This made Mrs. Zheng overjoyed.

After all the hard work for so long, it finally paid off!

"Congratulations, ma'am—"

Mr. Yi, who had gray hair and fairy wind bones, first stopped and looked at Mrs. Zheng carefully for a while, then his expression was relieved, and he stepped forward to congratulate him with a smile.

"I look at Mrs., my luck has been getting better recently, and there is a faint boiling appearance, which is a sign that things are showing signs of something......"

Mrs. Zheng was overjoyed when she heard this.

"Thank you for your help......

Mr. Yi shook his head with a serious expression.

"Madame praises falsely, I just follow the destiny of heaven and follow the trend, everything still depends on the blessings of the son and yourself......"

Speaking of this, Mr. Yi's expression suddenly changed, and in front of Mrs. Zheng, he pinched his fingers and calculated for a long time, and then he said with a happy face.

"Congratulations to Madame, Mrs. Hexi, come to heaven and earth to work together, Madam, you and your son's luck has arrived ......"

When Mrs. Zheng heard this, she couldn't help but be surprised and delighted.

"Dare to ask Mr. He is happy ......"

Mr. Yi smiled and pointed to the east.

"Happiness comes from the sea, if the old man is not wrong, within ten months, good news will come from the sea......"

Mrs. Zheng was a little puzzled.

"Are you saying that my grandson is about to pacify Fuso?"

Mr. Yi shook his head and reminded.

"Madame, haven't you forgotten the original intention of the son to go to sea this time?"

When Mrs. Zheng heard this, her mouth suddenly opened in disbelief.

"You mean, you mean, my grandson, they really found it for His Majesty, found ......"

Mr. Yi smiled and nodded.

"The old man is good at looking at qi, above the east, he has become colorful, and there is a faint clear qi rushing to the sky, when a king is born, the immortal medicine is in the dust......"

When Mrs. Zheng heard this, she couldn't help but clench her fists tightly, and her eyes showed ecstasy.

She knows very well that if her husband can really ask for the elixir of immortality for His Majesty, then the position of the crown prince will really be stable!

……

Fuso Island.

Childe Gao looked at the silver mine in front of him with an excited expression.

Silver is actually produced here, and judging by the reserves, it is quite large. This time I came to Fuso, and this alone was enough to make people excited.

"Immediately organize people to dig by hand, and tell the group of savages on the island that as long as they are willing to go to the mine to dig silver, each person will be rewarded with one pound a day, no, two pounds of rice per person - I will transport all this silver back to Xianyang to surprise Your Majesty!"

Childe's high eyebrows fluttered.

In just a few days, such an amazing silver mine was discovered on this Fuso Island, and according to the scattered soldiers, there seem to be a few similar silver deposits, which is not happy?

"Your Highness, we're running out of food to bring......"

The quartermaster, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but smile bitterly and came out to remind him.

This son of his own family is really too casual, thinking that one place is another, during this time, thousands of catties of food have been rewarded, and if he continues to reward him so casually, within half a month, it is estimated that the soldiers who came with him will be hungry.

Gongzi Gao was slightly stunned when he heard this, and looked at Ge Yun on the side.

Ge Yun nodded.

"Yes, now the grain and grass we bring is only enough for half a month's needs - however, I have already sent people to search everywhere to find food, but these barbarians have now become the head of my Great Qin, and pay some taxes, isn't it also very reasonable......

Childe Gao: ......

Thinking of the ragged and savage-like appearance of the inhabitants here, he still hesitated after all.

"There's something wrong with that, isn't it?"

Ge Yun arched his hand and said calmly.

"Where is there a reason why the people do not pay taxes for the imperial court, not to mention, these barbarians, not educated, not deceitful, afraid of authority but not virtuous, it is precisely the time for them to know awe......"

Childe Gao is a little uncertain.

"Your Majesty asked me to educate the people for him overseas and give kindness to ......"

Ge Yun waved his hand very calmly.

"Childe, isn't this a kind of Wanghua education?"

Gongzi Gao couldn't help but be stunned.

After pondering for a long time, he asked with some uncertainty.

"In this way, it won't affect me to ask for the elixir of immortality for Your Majesty......"

Ge Yun shook his head.

"Childe just rest assured, Childe can come here, let these desert island barbarians see the etiquette and education, and communicate with Daqin, for them, it is already a great creation, and it is already in line with the meaning of the immortals to let His Majesty be kind, how can it be hindered......"

Speaking of this, Ge Yun subconsciously glanced at Xu Fu.

"Besides, our three brothers, recently watching the sky at night, it seems that the place of the immortals can be faintly seen, and we can smell the joy of the immortals, and I think that the opportunity to come to Your Majesty is about to come......"

When Gongzi Gao heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, and stepped forward in surprise and grabbed Ge Yun's big hand.

"Is that true, sir?"

Ge Yun nodded calmly.

Gongzi Gao turned his head to look at Xu Fu again, Xu Fu nodded a little stiffly, at this time, Gongzi Gao was shocked by the surprise of the sudden arrival, and did not find the reluctance in Xu Fu's expression at all.

On the other hand, Long Ji and Fan Xue on the side couldn't help frowning slightly, and glanced at Ge Yun and Xu Fu not far away with some suspicion.

However, this kind of thing really can't be falsified, so I closed my mouth very interestingly.

Whether there are immortals or not, whether they can seek the elixir of immortality, they will know when the time comes, and they will not necessarily make trouble at this time.

However, Gongzi Gao rejected Ge Yun's proposal to continue to loot the barbarians on these islands for food, but he did not continue to distribute food to these people, but asked Long He to personally lead people to loot the gold and silver hidden in the hands of these barbarians.

These people, although they are still in the stage of bartering, do not know the benefits of these gold and silver, but these things are bright in color, and there are rich deposits of gold and silver, these barbarians still inadvertently collect a lot of gold and silver.

After all, these things, which are naturally different from ordinary stones, have been picked up by many people and put in the tribe.

Now it's all cheaper, Childe is high.

Three days later, plus the men who mobilized their men to dig day and night, they gathered a boat.

He was going to send someone to send these gold and silver back to Xianyang early tomorrow morning to report the good news to his own Ah Weng!

……………………

It's night, and the moon is bright and the stars are scarce.

Outside Xu Fu's tent, a figure flashed, and a man in a short brown coat with three long beards under his chin entered. If Gongzi Gao and Long He and others were here, they would find that this person was none other than Ge Yun, the strategist he had relied on a lot recently.

"Immortal Master Xu, get ready to do it-"

Xu Fu looked at the person who came, couldn't help but take a deep breath, and walked outside the tent with some unease and looked around. Although the soldiers guarding around his tent had been broken up by him, he was a little uneasy.

Seeing that there was indeed no one around, the elite of Daqin, who had been patrolling back and forth recently, was also dozens of steps away, so he relaxed a little. Looking back at Ge Yun, he said in a deep voice.

"Are you sure I can get what I want......"
