Chapter 467: The First Emperor: This son, can it be used?
It's just that Zhao Ying consciously covered most of his vision.
For him, crossing is the biggest secret, even if he is already the grandson of the emperor of the prison country, he doesn't want to easily reveal his identity as a traverser. At the beginning of the map of the East China Sea, he pretended to be the hand of Xu Fu and dedicated it to the first emperor.
Now, the map in front of him has also been gradually improved with the pace of Liu Bang's expansion in the Western Regions, and it only shows the west of the Western Regions and part of the area south of the Western Regions, but just these are enough to make Xiang Yu moved.
"Beyond Mount Alai, there is a country called Dawan, which is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and is a natural horse farm—"
Speaking of this, Zhao Ying turned his head and looked at Xiang Yu.
"That's where the Dawan horse we know comes from."
When Xiang Yu heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he subconsciously made up half of the map.
As a military general, he understands too well the importance of a good war horse to a large army.
Although this map carefully created by the Jiangshan Society Jiji Division cannot be presented as accurately as the satellite maps of later generations, under the personal correction of Zhao Ying, it is very close to the three-dimensional map of later generations.
Through this map, Xiang Yu could even clearly see the distribution of rivers in Dawan Kingdom, and he had even begun to silently deduce in his heart how to win this feng shui treasure.
At this moment, Zhao Ying smiled and pointed his finger in a farther direction.
"I have heard that from the country of Dawan to the west, to the sea, there are tens of thousands of miles away, and many places are rich in products, no less than the land of my Daqin......"
Xiang Yu couldn't help but move in his heart, and looked at Zhao Ying with some uncertainty.
Zhao Ying smiled and nodded slightly.
"What is the land of Yanbei County? If the general has the courage to decide, he may not be able to lead troops to the west in the future and lay down thousands of miles of territory for my Great Qin......"
Speaking of this, Zhao Ying looked at Xiang Yu with burning eyes.
"When the time comes, Lone will personally put on red and hang colors for you, and immediately become a marquis, a heroic man in the world, should take General Xiang as his husband! It's hard here, and it's not something that an idle person can do, so you can't do it! ”
That trusting and enthusiastic gaze made Xiang Yu can't help but be enthusiastic.
So much so that when he left the palace, the whole person was still dizzy. I can't wait to lead the army to set off immediately, to defeat Dawan, and then wave my army westward to make contributions and create a new world of my own.
Compared with this, the title of a mere general, the official position of a county lieutenant, is nothing.
……
"This son, available?"
When Xiang Yu left, the first emperor took the tea cup and walked out of the side hall unhurriedly, with a leisurely posture, like a retired old cadre watching his family gradually grow up.
"I look at this person, his eyes are full of eyes, he walks like a tiger, he is brave and resolute in doing things, leaving no room for it, I am afraid that he is not a person who is willing to live under others......"
"Father is wise!"
Listening to the First Emperor's judgment of Xiang Yu, Zhao Ying couldn't help but praise sincerely.
"Father is really a good eye-"
When the first emperor saw this guy's reaction, he knew that this product must have something in mind, and he no longer dwelled on this issue, since he let this eldest grandson supervise the country, he had to let go and let him do what he wanted.
It's better to make a mistake now than to make a mistake later.
Now that something has gone wrong, this old bone of his own, can still help him to the bottom, if something goes wrong in the future, then it is really regretted and there is nothing to be done.
Just when Xiang Yu entered the palace and met the first emperor and the emperor's grandson.
Zhao Wan finally returned to her home after a months-long absence.
Compared with when he left, his home seemed more and more magnificent, and there were many more servants coming and going in the yard, and it was already a bit prosperous.
Ji's father, Xiang Liang, took his servants and greeted him personally.
"Don't dare to welcome the ...... of my father in the season"
Seeing Xiang Liang personally greet him from a distance, Zhao Wan hurriedly got rid of the support of the maids beside her, walked a few steps quickly, and rushed forward to bow down.
"These days, my husband and I are not by Ji's father's side to do our filial piety, I am very worried, I don't know if Ji's father is still well-"
Xiang Liang looked at Zhao Wan, who did not have the arrogance of the eldest son of the Great Qin at all, his eyes couldn't help but soften a little, and he bowed very respectfully.
"There is a labor girl who is worried, the minister is in good health, and he can still ride a horse and drive a strong bow......"
Xiang Yu was not at home.
Even if Zhao Wan respects this Father Ji very much, there is nothing to talk about, Xiang Liang naturally understands this truth, and quickly shifts the topic to the changes in the Fourth Prince's Mansion.
Zhao Wan had already heard of these when she was in Yanbei County, but when she heard Xiang Liang's narration at this time, her impression of the whole thing became clearer.
But because of this, she became more and more frightened, and she had no idea in her heart.
"Father Ji, what should I do, can I do anything for my grandma......"
Looking at Zhao Wan, who looked flustered, Xiang Liang couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Speaking of which, Mrs. Zheng not only died by herself, but also almost caused the Xiang family to recover, and it was too late for him to resent, and he felt that he had already done his best if he didn't take the opportunity to fall into the well.
But when he looked at Zhao Wan, who was almost in tears, his eyes subconsciously glanced at Zhao Wan's lower abdomen, which was already slightly bulging, and finally sighed, stretched out his finger, and pointed upward.
"Collusion against the party and conspiracy to rebel is already a crime of murder, even if he is sent to prison, it is reasonable, but now the emperor's grandson only ordered someone to arrest those henchmen in Lingtang, obviously there is room for it......"
Speaking of which, he said it meaningfully.
"His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson repays his grievances with virtue, and he has been called benevolent and righteous to Lingtang's mansion - I have heard of it, voted for me with papaya, and repaid it with Qiongju, in the face of the imperial grandson's overtures, why did Lingtang be silent all day long and turn a blind eye......"
Zhao Wan couldn't help nodding deeply when she heard this, stood up, and gave a deep salute solemnly.
"Thank you Father Ji for your teachings! The concubine understood—"
As soon as Zhao Wan arrived at home, she was about to get up and go to the Fourth Prince's Mansion to visit Ah Yu, who had been grounded in the house. For this, Xiang Liang naturally will not refuse.
In fact, even if Zhao Wan didn't take the initiative, until tomorrow, he would have a plan to let Zhao Wan go back.
There are no eggs under the nest.
In any case, his own Xiang family and the fourth prince's mansion are both in-laws, which can be described as both prosperity and loss, if the fourth prince's mansion really suffers a catastrophe, his Xiang family may not be able to get a good go.
Therefore, in the case that the imperial grandson has no intention of killing them all, if he can help Mrs. Zheng, he will naturally not be stingy to extend a hand.
……
This sensitive matter should naturally not be publicized.
Therefore, when Zhao Wan returned to her parents' house this time, except for a few personal maids, she didn't bring many attendant guards. But even so, it's conspicuous enough.
After all, these days, who dares to go to the Fourth Prince's Mansion with nothing to do?
In front of the Fourth Prince's Mansion.
Zhao Wan got out of the carriage with the support of the maids.
There were no halberds in front of the door, no cars coming and going, and the guests were welcomed, except for the two old porters who sat on the steps and squinted in the sun, there was no one to be seen.
Instead, a few gray sparrows stopped on the steps, tilting their heads and probing their heads to look at the new guest.
I probably wondered where this luxuriously dressed young guest with a graceful temperament came from.
Looking at the somewhat familiar and somewhat unfamiliar mansion in front of her, Zhao Wan couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness.
The two old porters, who were squinting in the sun, couldn't help but be slightly surprised when they saw that the carriage and horse had stopped at the door of their mansion, until a few of them saw that it was their own daughter-in-law Zhao Wan who got off the carriage, and they were immediately surprised. Some rubbed his faint old eyes in disbelief, stood up excitedly, and trotted in front of Zhao Wan.
"The little old man meets the son-in-law and asks the son-in-law to ......"
Zhao Wan bowed my head.
"Where is my aunt now......
Before he finished speaking, he couldn't wait to walk inside the gate.
However, before the person entered the gate, he already felt the cold and dilapidated atmosphere of the house, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and stepped forward with the support of the personal maid.
"Is Wan'er back—"
As soon as I entered the door, I heard the voice of my aunt full of surprise, and before the words fell, I saw a middle-aged woman who came out of the room with a surprised face.
It's not my own aunt, or someone.
Mrs. Zheng has been confined to the mansion these days, living in fear all day long, living like a year, and no one has to talk to her for advice, and she no longer has the ambition to be a queen like her aunt in the past.
At this time, I suddenly heard that my daughter was back, and I was naturally surprised.
subconsciously rushed out of the room, but as soon as she walked not far in front of Zhao Wan, she suddenly stopped again, remembering that she had really plotted against her daughter's husband!
Openly and secretly stuffed a lot of his own manpower into him.
almost put his daughter-in-law's family in!
Therefore, when he looked at his daughter again, he felt a little weak and frightened, his eyes were dodgy, and he didn't dare to look at Zhao Wan.
For her mother's operation, if Zhao Wan has no complaints in her heart, it is naturally impossible. However, when her eyes fell on Mrs. Zheng, who was obviously haggard and much thinner, especially when she saw that the black and shiny sideburns in the past had added a lot of extremely dazzling silver threads, her heart was soft.
Blood is thicker than water.
In any case, this is his own grandmother, the grandmother who once cared for and loved himself in every way.
"Grandma—"
Zhao Wan said, stepped forward and grabbed Mrs. Zheng's somewhat dry palm, and complained with some complaints.
"Auntie, you are confused - do you know that your actions like this almost hurt us, and almost caused my family's Ah Weng to be ruined......"
Mrs. Zheng heard her daughter's complaints and didn't dare to raise her head, but she felt a little aggrieved in her heart.
I'm not here to plan a better future for your father and daughter......
But she didn't dare to say such things.
She is a little bit of a dish, her IQ has not been able to keep up with the pace of her desires, but she is not really stupid, and now she is a person in distress, and she doesn't know what kind of fate she will usher in - her daughter's husband is ......
Ah, he was also stripped of the title of general and took away the official position of the lieutenant of Yanbei County.
She couldn't help but cautiously sneak a glance at the performance on her daughter's face, and suddenly regretted it in her heart.
Zhao Wan sighed and pulled Ah Mi, who was a little evasive.
"Grandma, have you ever thought about how to deal with ...... now?"
"How to deal with it?"
Mrs. Zheng looked at her daughter whose face had regained her calm in a little dazed, and smiled bitterly in her heart.
What else can be done now?
When I opened the door of the mansion and recruited talents for my husband, I didn't expect that so many rebellious ministers and thieves would come in. Speaking of which, I'm also very innocent......
Seeing her aunt's reaction, Zhao Wan knew the result, and she became more and more tired in her heart.
is such a grandmother, and she still wants to fight for that position with the imperial grandson!
Is......
If not, this is his own pro-aunt, and he will be a big mouth when he picks up his hands.
"Grandma, save yourself-"
Zhao Wan pulled her slightly cold palm, and said in a sincere tone.
"Since the imperial grandson and eldest father didn't arrest you on the spot, they must have wanted to leave you another chance, why did you sit at home all day long, silent?"
Mrs. Zheng looked at her daughter with some puzzlement.
Zhao Wan's tone was a little complicated.
"Auntie, the emperor's grandson brother has always been a person who values love and righteousness, in the past, the eighteenth uncle treated him like that, he could repay his grievances with virtue and spare the eighteenth uncle's life, not to mention that you just didn't notice it for a while, and were deceived by those chaotic ministers and thieves, and took advantage of the loopholes?"
As soon as Mrs. Zheng heard her daughter's analysis, her eyes suddenly lit up!
yes, what can I do wrong? It's just that I didn't notice it for a while, and I was taken advantage of by those chaotic ministers and thieves!
Zhao Wan: ......
She sighed a little helplessly, and grabbed Mrs. Zheng, who was about to let herself go on the spot.
"But this is a major crime of rebellion after all, even if the imperial grandson doesn't say it, if you are involved, I am afraid it will be difficult to escape the ...... of the law."
Hearing Zhao Wan say this, Mrs. Zheng couldn't help but become a little nervous again.
Zhao Wan knew that she might not be able to understand her grandmother, so she simply said very seriously.
"Auntie, those chaotic ministers and thieves, gathered in our mansion for so many days, how can there be no clues, do you have any evidence here that others don't know, only you know, why don't you take the initiative to dedicate to the emperor's grandson......"
"I, how did I know that they were actually plotting to make trouble, I saw that they were quite talented and knowledgeable, and many of the affairs in the house were handed over to them to take care of, and those helpers who were given to you at the beginning ......"
Speaking of this, Mrs. Zheng couldn't help but pause slightly, and seeing that Zhao Wan didn't seem to have any special reaction, she put her mind at ease, frowned, and began to ponder Zhao Wan's suggestion.
After a long time, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he slapped his palms with some excitement.
"Don't you mention it, I forgot that when Yi Xian - Yi Thief was still there, I paid for him to buy a small courtyard in Xianyang City, whenever they were free, they were in a hurry at that time, I am afraid they may not have time to clean up the ...... inside" (end of this chapter)
