"I don't know if there are any exceptions to this, but I haven't had a single day off."
Hu Hai's idea of pretending to be sick became stronger and stronger when he was assigned to carry bamboo baskets and transport gravel after the roll call.
He held the basket's handles with both hands and carried it against his body.
The bamboo basket was filled with stones.
Some are big and some are small.
The largest one was bigger than his two fists.
Hu Hai lifted it with great effort.
He gritted his teeth and his face turned red.
After just two lifts back and forth, his white and tender palms were already rubbed red and bleeding.
"Bang."
Hu Hai put the bamboo basket on the ground and blew gently on his palm.
Tears began to well up in my eyes.
Mother, I am in so much pain...
Hu Hai, who didn't want to work anymore, immediately started holding his stomach.
"Ouch! Ouch! It hurts!"
"My stomach hurts!"
The team leader heard the call and hurried over to check.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Hu Hai covered his stomach and pretended to be weak.
"My stomach hurts so much...hiss...I must have eaten something unclean."
The original team leader was still very worried.
After hearing this, I was no longer anxious.
He squinted his eyes and looked at the child who was crying in stomachache.
"Eat something unclean? You mean breakfast?"
Hu Hai's face turned pale and he spoke incoherently.
"Yes... yes, it must be that the breakfast is not clean..."
The team leader's face immediately turned cold, he stood up and said coldly.
“Nonsense!”
"Even if you're not clean, breakfast won't be dirty!"
"Get up now! Stop pretending!"
"If I catch you pretending to be sick again, I'll spank you!"
"I tell you, I don't have a habit of not beating children!"
Before Hu Hai knew what was happening, he was picked up by someone.
Something was stuffed into his hand.
He looked down and saw that it was the basket he had put on the ground.
“I, you…”
Before he could say anything, the team leader walked away.
Seeing that this trick didn't work, Hu Hai frowned in confusion.
strangeness.
Why doesn't he believe it?
Is it because his acting was not realistic enough?
That's not right.
Every time I acted in the past, my father would believe it.
This shows that his acting skills are fine.
So what went wrong?
Just when he was confused and doubting his life.
Zhao Gao, who had been secretly watching this side from a distance, couldn't help but laugh out loud in his heart.
This Hu Hai is really innocent and cute.
He used the stomachache trick when he first came here.
It's completely useless.
Moreover, the meals here are prepared specifically for them by special people.
There will be absolutely no discomfort to the body.
Hu Hai using breakfast as an excuse is too...
Having seen enough of the joke, Zhao Gao quickly lowered his head, grasped the hammer in his hand, and hit the huge rock on the ground.
...........
Xianyang Palace.
Ying Zheng looked at the cloth in his hand and asked, "General Wang is coming back?"
There was a soldier below, looking dusty and exhausted.
He looked up and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
"General Wang specially wrote a letter and asked me to bring it back."
"Okay, go down and have a good rest first."
"promise!"
The soldiers saluted and left the hall.
Xia Lin stood aside and heard that Wang Jian was about to come back.
I couldn't help but feel happy.
This battle has been going on for a long time.
Your Majesty has to study military intelligence at his desk late every night, with his mind focused on the battlefield.
Now with this good news, I believe Your Majesty can sleep well tonight.
Ying Zheng turned his head to Xia Lin and instructed, "Go tell Li Si to leave Xianyang with me tomorrow morning."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Xia Lin responded, then walked out of the hall and headed outside the palace.
At Li Si's house.
The corn has been planted for some time and is now starting to sprout.
Except for a few that were damaged by insects and ants.
The rest that are intact have been assigned special personnel to look after them.
Li Si could finally take a break.
These days, he squatted in the ground every day.
The clothes on my body were wet and dry, dry and wet again.
Covered in mud and dust, looking dirty.
It was a rare opportunity to have a good rest today, so he asked his servants to boil some hot water and wash himself thoroughly.
He had just finished washing, and with his hair loose, he let the servant wipe him dry with a towel.
Then I heard the doorman come to report.
"Sir, someone is coming from the palace!"
What?
Someone is coming from the palace?
Li Si stood up suddenly, "Who is coming? Come in!"
The doorman said, "Your Excellency, it is Eunuch Xia Lin Xia who has arrived."
Upon hearing this, Li Si hurried out.
Xia Lin is here?
This is someone close to His Majesty.
I wonder what you are here for?
Could it be that Your Majesty wants to ask about corn planting?
As soon as Xia Lin saluted Li Si, Li Si quickly asked.
"I wonder if Eunuch Xia has come, but what are your Majesty's instructions?"
Xia Lin said, "Master Li, His Majesty has ordered that you leave Xianyang with His Majesty tomorrow morning."
What?
Will you leave Xianyang with Your Majesty tomorrow morning?
Li Si asked with some confusion on his face.
"Eunuch Xia, do you know what this is about?"
