In addition to the court officials brought by Zhao Qingrui, the people of Xianyang also came to welcome the First Emperor.
Perhaps it was because Zhao Qingrui had brainwashed them too much, the common people had great respect and admiration for the First Emperor.
As Ying Zheng came to Zhao Qingrui, everyone knelt down and saluted.
Zhao Qingrui looked at Ying Zheng with a bright smile. Her father was finally back.
"Everyone, please stand up. I am no longer the emperor." Ying Zheng was very surprised that he was still so popular.
"Your Majesty must be tired after sitting on the boat for such a long time. I have already cleaned up the palace for you." Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.
"My son is thoughtful. Let's go. We are all tired. We will meet again tomorrow." Ying Zheng said gently to the officials around him and the people he brought back.
"Your Majesty is right. I have prepared a banquet that will last for three days. All the people can go to all the branches of Qingyuan Restaurant in Xianyang City to dine there. No food should be wasted. All the expenses for these three days will be recorded in my account." Zhao Qingrui turned and looked at all the people.
"Long live His Majesty, long live the Great Qin." The shouts rang out, and everyone was excited.
Qingyuan Restaurant was opened by Zhao Qingrui and Wang Xianmengyu, and they have made a lot of money over the years.
Zhao Qingrui is in a good mood today and is ready to give some benefits to his people.
As for a general amnesty, that's not the case. The words "general amnesty" don't even exist in her dictionary.
A group of people marched towards the palace in a mighty procession, and Fusu and a few others were also called to get on Ying Zheng's carriage.
Daqin now has more and more tricycles and bicycles, but it can't think about cars for the time being. The trains have not been thoroughly tested yet and it will take several years before they are put into use.
So, Zhao Qingrui still took the carriage.
Ying Zheng looked at Fusu and the others, feeling a little emotional. They had grown a lot in the past few years. Fusu now had a resolute gaze, which was completely different from the one who only knew how to be led by the Confucian scholars.
"Father, why are you staring at me?" Fusu was a little panicked because he was being stared at by Ying Zheng. The fear of his father that he had developed since childhood made him subconsciously nervous.
"It's nothing. I just feel that you have all grown a lot, and I am very happy." Ying Zheng said gently.
Fusu was also stunned, and then he was ecstatic. He had done so much in the past just to get his father's approval, and now, he got it.
"It's my father's good teaching." Fusu said a little embarrassedly.
The corner of Ying Zheng's mouth twitched. Fusu's change was indeed significant, which made him a little uncomfortable. This kid even knew how to flatter.
"Tell me about your life over the years." He cared a little more about his eldest son.
Fusu was excited that his father cared about him.
Then he briefly talked about what had happened over the years.
Ying Zheng knew most of these things, and Zhao Qingrui would also tell him about them.
"You are going to be a prince next year. Have you encountered any problems that cannot be solved?" Ying Zheng asked. After not having high hopes for Fusu, Ying Zheng felt that his own child was still very good.
"We haven't encountered any unsolvable problems, so you don't have to worry, father." Fusu said seriously.
The biggest problem was that the imperial court had provided a large portion of the compensation for the army, weapons, manpower, and money, and they only needed to add some of the things they needed.
Of course, this is the most basic condition. If you want to develop your own territory well, there are still many things needed and many things to do.
Along the way, the father and son asked questions and answered them one by one, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Of course, my father is still so partial to other princes and princesses.
Fortunately, they have gotten used to it and they are adults too.
As he entered the palace and completed the various ceremonial procedures, Zhao Qingrui felt like he was no longer himself.
When Shusun Tong showed her the ritual procedures, she didn't think it was too much, so she approved it. However, she didn't expect that there would be so many things involved in the actual process.
"Don't you dislike these conventional rituals? Why make them so complicated?" Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Qingrui who was exhausted and said speechlessly.
"You are my father, this is a must, but I didn't expect there to be so much." Zhao Qingrui stuck out her tongue. Zhao Qingrui always treated her father with the highest standards.
I don't like these complicated formalities either," Ying Zheng said softly.
How could he not know what his own children were thinking?
"I understand. Next time I'll ask someone to simplify the various procedures." Zhao Qingrui said in a muffled voice. She knew very well that no matter how simplified these procedures were, as the political center of a country, these things were indispensable and essential.
Even with this simplified process, Shusun Tong still had objections, and occasionally he would write letters to complain that she did not pay enough attention to the Ministry of Rites.
She was really wronged. There were also many departments within the Ministry of Rites. Although she did not attach as much importance to the Ministry of Works, she still valued the Ministry of Rites as much.
The Ministry of Rites is indispensable to the Qin Dynasty.
After Ying Zheng came back, Zhao Qingrui called all his brothers and sisters together and had a meal together before letting them leave.
But the younger ones wanted to stay with Ying Zheng.
Zhao Qingrui glanced at his younger brothers and sisters, who were born a few years ago. Zhao Qingrui had no feelings for them, but his father had indeed not fulfilled his responsibilities as a father.
Ying Zheng's eyes fell on these children. These children were afraid of him. Basically, their mothers wanted them to stay.
