Chapter 53: Testing



Seeing the black ink on the silk cloth, Ying Zheng frowned slightly, "Next time, let someone else write it."

"Your Majesty, please forgive me." Zhao Gao was so frightened that his body began to tremble.

Ying Zheng did not go to see him again and has not replaced Zhao Gao until now. He has thought a lot during this period. Zhao Gao has been with him for so many years, and it is certain that no one else will be as easy to use as Zhao Gao.

As long as he behaved himself, he didn't mind keeping him.

Your Majesty's sudden abolition of Hu Hai's status caused many people to talk about this matter.

Fusu was also a little confused, and went to his father to plead for Hu Hai, but unfortunately his father refused to see him.

The other princes looked at each other. Although they followed Fusu to plead for mercy, none of them were sincere.

They were not as kind as Fusu, and Hu Hai was naughty and always cheated them, so they naturally disliked Hu Hai.

Now that his identity has been stripped, he feels somewhat happy in his heart.

The court officials were also discussing this matter, wondering if Hu Hai had done something to displease the emperor.

Your Majesty's thoughts have become increasingly difficult to guess in recent years.

The First Emperor was resolute in his attitude, the edict had been issued, and the matter had become a foregone conclusion.

The only ones who could not accept this were Hu Ji and her son Hu Hai.

Hu Ji is still in solitary confinement and cannot come out to plead for mercy. His Majesty simply ignores her.

Hu Hai was even more miserable. Without the status of a prince, Wang Ben would not treat him well. If he did not do his job properly, he would be whipped with much greater force.

There was endless work to do in the farm every day, and he was so busy that he almost forgot the sad news of being stripped of his status as a young master.

Zhao Qingrui looked at the several trucks of things that had been packed up. There were still some things in her system backpack. These were the things she had prepared over the years.

Sitting in the carriage holding the kitten, I will not be back for at least half a year.

This time, not only do I have to find a way to coax my father back, but I also have to win over Shusun Tong, Xiao He and Cao Shen.

The traveling team was much larger, with more than 30 guards, all of whom were elites among the guards, and several who were good at arithmetic and diplomacy.

Leaning against the carriage, she placed the dough in a small cage to prevent it from running around.

Zhao Qingrui didn't turn the page of the book in his hand for a long time. He was thinking about the changes in Lingnan.

When we get back to Xianyang, we have to ask someone to investigate thoroughly.

Dough's claws kept scratching the wooden cage, trying to get out.

"Dough, stop making trouble and be good. I'll let you stay outside from now on." He reached out and pinched its little paw to comfort it.

Unfortunately, Dough didn't understand what she said. After breaking free from her hand, he still wanted to get out.

When they arrived in Xianyang, it was already evening. Zhao Qingrui took the kitten out. The kitten looked listless and its voice was weak.

After handing the kitten to Chunxi, Zhao Qingrui went to clean it. When she came out, her father had already returned.

"Qingrui is back. Are you tired?" Seeing his daughter, Ying Zheng put down the book and asked with concern.

"I'm not tired. Dad, why are you back so late again?" Zhao Qingrui asked as she sat next to her father. A few days ago, she wanted to follow the person who delivered food to her father, but unfortunately her legs could not run faster than a horse, so her plan failed.

"I'm busy." Ying Zheng said calmly, but there was some fatigue in his eyes. There were a lot of things to do in the court, and it was not easy to reform them. As soon as he proposed it, he was opposed by a lot of people, especially those Confucian scholars, whose noise made his head hurt.

Zhao Qingrui pouted. He was indeed busy, so busy that he was not seen every day. "Uncle Meng, has my father been obedient during the few days I've been away?" Zhao Qingrui was too lazy to ask more questions. She turned around and quietly followed him out to check.

"Don't worry, miss. The master has been eating and drinking according to your plan these days, and I also supervise the master to exercise every day." Meng Yi said seriously.

Zhao Qingrui nodded with satisfaction, "That's good."

I looked at my father. He didn't look very well and seemed to have lost some weight. It might be because the weather was hot and he was wearing less clothes, which gave the illusion that he had lost some weight.

Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Qingrui angrily. This girl didn't trust him! ! "How can I coax you? I mean what I say."

"Yes, yes, I'm just afraid that you won't be able to control yourself when I'm not in Xianyang." Zhao Qingrui smiled. His father looked fierce, and it seemed like that was the case.

"Hmph, why don't you go home and take care of your family affairs?" Ying Zheng rolled his eyes at her.

"It's been handled. Don't worry, Dad. Even if other places are in chaos, our family will be fine." Zhao Qingrui said confidently.

Ying Zheng glanced at her dimly. He was alive and well, and the Qin Empire would definitely not fall into chaos!

Hu Hai had already been dealt with by him in advance, so even if he died, the Qin Dynasty would be fine.

Meng Yi had almost completed all the preparations. He would wait for his subordinate Shi Zhangcang to choose a good day and then bring his daughter back.

He really didn't want his daughter to continue causing trouble. The current situation was enough to give him a headache.

If she is given time, she might steal all his girls.

Since she wants to do something so much, after she announces it to the world, the world will belong to him and she can do whatever she wants.

"Dad, are you well-informed in Xianyang?" Zhao Qingrui poured a glass of water for Ying Zheng. She was a little unsure about the affairs of Ren Xiong and Zhao Tuo.

Ying Zheng paused as he was about to drink the water. "It's okay, why are you asking this?"

"Then do you know that Ren Xiong and Zhao Tuo were recalled? What happened?" Zhao Qingrui sat upright, waiting for his father's next words.

Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Qingrui meaningfully. Okay, he started to test him.

"I know a little. I heard that the emperor wanted to reward them, so he called them back."

"Many people in Xianyang know about this. You can ask someone to find out."

Zhao Qingrui looked at Ying Zheng suspiciously, "Really? Then why haven't I heard of it before?"

"Don't you dislike going out? How are you going to know these things?" Ying Zheng was very calm. Naturally, he controlled the news. As long as he didn't want it to, the news would never reach Zhao Qingrui's ears.

However, this girl was more capable than he thought. Ever since he found out that she had a private army and a group of people who specialized in collecting all kinds of intelligence, and that some of her people had infiltrated many important positions in the Qin Dynasty, especially the military, he knew that he had underestimated her.

I have to say that this girl's preparations are indeed very comprehensive.

If he hadn't known her plan in advance, and he was still her father, given time, the power in her hands would surely have been able to overthrow the Qin Dynasty.

He was really envious of his daughter's talents.
