It is said that Qin Shihuang was controlled by a daughter

Chapter 485 Am I really so ferocious?
Zhao Gao stole a glance at Ying Zheng's expression and said with a smile, "Princess, you don't know that this immortal candle is hard to find, but the mermaid oil is not hard to find. Now is the fishing season. As long as Your Majesty orders the conscription of the people along the coast, within half a year, it will not be difficult to gather enough people to support the whole country, not to mention Dongjun."

"Whom to condemn?"

Zhao Gao looked at Ying Hehua and said, "I am afraid that the princess will be unhappy, so I dare not say it."

"Then shut up."

"Howard."

In the past few years, Zhao Gao has become more and more like the sinister person she understood, and Xu Zhi can't stand it. If Ying Zheng wasn't there, she would have called Zhao Gao over.

Ying Zheng gave him a look.

"Yes." Zhao Gao said solemnly, seizing the opportunity, "I think Prime Minister Li's son can be of great use. Lord Li handled the matter of the witch clan in Chu very well in Jiujiang County. So I dare to recommend him to Your Majesty, but Lord Li has just returned from Jiujiang. If he is sent to the coast of the East China Sea, I am afraid that it will hurt the princess's feelings."

Ying Hehua just smiled at him and said, "Since you know I'm unhappy, what good solution do you have?"

"I think we should repair the road surface after the foundation is completed. It would be better to let Li Xian continue to stay in Xianyang to supervise the repair of the Lishan Mausoleum until the Dongjun Highway is completed. Your Majesty, what do you think?"

"Lishan Mausoleum," Xu Zhi thought thoughtfully. She was thinking of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor.

Ying Zheng's face darkened, because it was his daughter who was almost buried there a few years ago.

The construction of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor mobilized 100,000 prisoners. Xu Zhi thought to himself that this was not good. Before someone could develop fast mechanical equipment and find a way to produce asphalt, the two projects of Mount Li and the Great Wall could not be the focus. This was simply a proposal to send the Qin State into the fire pit!

Ying Zheng said nothing.

She walked from the small desk to Ying Zheng, knelt down beside him, put down the pottery cup in her hand, and handed over the document that Xunzi wanted to leave Baqiao Palace and go to Zhongnan Mountain.

"Father, where Li Xian works has nothing to do with me. I just don't want to be accused of being arrogant."

The person she was talking about was Li Si.

"Aren't you arrogant? You even dare to disobey my orders. There are not many people like you in this world." As he spoke, he thought of her mother and his expression relaxed a lot.

"I didn't say a word to Prime Minister Li at the court meeting today. I thought no one would say anything about me in front of the emperor, but I didn't expect the prefect to find ways to accuse me."

She explained her silence just right, and seeing her angry look, Ying Zheng felt that she was always the spoiled girl she was in her childhood.

"Zhao Gao."

Zhao Gao was frightened by Ying Zheng's look and fell to the ground. "I have no such intention. Your Highness, please calm down. Your Majesty, Your Majesty understands this."

Xu Zhi felt ironic when looking at Zhao Gao.

The large number of prisoners in Mount Li were all transferred from the six states in Shandong.

The Records of Emperor Gaozu states: "Emperor Gaozu was appointed as a village head and sent prisoners to Lishan for the county." The Biography of Ying Bu states: "Bu had been sent to Lishan. There were hundreds of thousands of prisoners in Lishan, and Bu was in contact with the leaders of the prisoners and the powerful and tyrants."

The construction of the Mausoleum of Mount Li mostly used mermaid oil, which is also called longevity candle in some documents. In simple terms, it is fish oil, but not mermaid oil, but fish oil extracted from fish such as giant salamander and catfish.

With Qin Dynasty technology, fish oil was difficult to refine.

Zhao Gao proposed to conscript the people of Qi just to make her or Li Xian bear the label of "tyrannical and brutal".

Why is he pretending to be loyal in front of Ying Zheng now?
"If I don't calm down, what are you going to do? Die?"

"...No, no, Princess, calm down. Your Majesty, I am guilty of speaking without restraint and deserve death!" As he said that, he slammed his head heavily to the ground.

She was really like that. When she was a child, she would also shout and kill anyone who provoked her.

Ying Zheng waved his hand.

Zhao Gao felt relieved and quickly backed away.

"Father."

Seeing that she was actually quite serious, Ying Zheng suddenly smiled and said, "You, Zhao Gao did nothing wrong. You can't kill people at will."

"As for the Chidao, now that the Eastern Tour is imminent, the road is already built and the road is smooth, so there is no need to go to great lengths with shark oil. I have walked all kinds of roads, so it doesn't matter if they are a little less smooth."

He waved at her.

Xu Zhi looked at him.

Her father, the emperor, was a dragon among men. However, time treated everyone equally. Ten years of hardships had left fine lines at the corners of his eyes. The long-cherished wishes of his ancestors, the expectations of his courtiers, and the hopes of the people were all placed on him.

Only his shoulders could support this huge empire and keep it running smoothly. Therefore, after his death, the empire collapsed and all efforts were in vain.

She suddenly felt the warmth of a broad palm on her head. "Hehua, going on a tour is not an easy thing, especially since the road is not good enough. I wanted to wait until the road was repaired, and then take your mother and you to tour the world together. By then,"

He paused and did not tell the rest of his words to Ying Hehua, because he was to tell them to Zheng Li in person.

"Why do you want to go with me this time?"

After enduring many blows and many warnings, Xu Zhi looked at Ying Zheng's face, and the years eroded him, and time slipped through her fingers.

She is different from Mo Qi. She and he have lived with them for more than ten years.

She looked at him deeply, "Father. I said I would always be with you."

"You must be tired from the tour. Wouldn't it be better for you to stay with your mother in Zhilan Palace and wait for me to come back?"

"Of course I want to accompany my mother, I just..." He died of illness on the last of his five tours to the east. She choked, "Father, have you forgotten? Back then, when I followed you to get Li Keqing back, you promised me that you would take me with you every time you go out."

She said seriously, "Besides, I'm not delicate. I know maps, I can ride a horse, I can walk, and I can cross mountains and ridges. It's very convenient for my father to take me with him. If he needs to do anything, I can also help."

"Did you help kill people?"

Xu Zhi was stunned, not knowing why, but he felt that Ying Zheng's eyes were as deep as the sea.

Ying Zheng smiled and shook his head. He looked at her, "Do you really want to go?"

She nodded.

In fact, the physical strength she described was a description of her condition before she returned from the State of Chu.

Ying Zheng asked Xia Wuqie, her physical condition is not as good as before. She was out of breath when she went up Mount Zhongnan a few days ago.

"I'll take care of myself."

Ying Zheng ruffled her hair and said, "Don't make me angry in the future." He looked at her and said, "Give me a promise."

She looked at him quietly.

"Without my decree, you are not allowed to leave Qin and go to Chu." He hesitated for a moment, "If there is really a reason why you must go to Chu, you must come back to me within ten days."

He really showed her the greatest kindness.

The candle on the table burned brightly, causing her tears to melt into her eyes and condense into the lamplight.

Ying Zheng didn't know that she was so delicate.

"Okay, why are you crying? Am I really that evil?"

She shook her head, and somehow she started talking about Li Si and her brother Fusu. Then Xu Zhi and Ying Zheng talked about the witchcraft disaster and the story of releasing military power over a cup of wine.

Her father laughed loudly, "How dare such a coward like you be called king?"

Just as he thought, he was not afraid of his son's strength, but he was afraid of the kind and weak side of his character.

And those tyrannical kings who even their own subjects feared and wanted to kill in various ways made him feel that they were not even as good as the rulers of the six countries.

The aroma of pepper spread in the stove, and the lamp flowers in the lamp created floating light like clouds.

Ying Zheng patted her on the back. The sound of rain gradually grew louder in his ears and turned into the roar of wheels.

For this dream, she will fight against fate and work day and night.

The journey was relatively smooth, and half a month later, we arrived at the foot of Mount Tai.

The Fengshan ceremony was held at Mount Tai, and the six kingdoms submitted to it, with the gods listening.

Confucian scholars will complete the rituals of sacrifice.

Only then did Xu Zhi realize that besides offering sacrifices to the gods, Ying Zheng came to Mount Tai for another purpose.

He told the Confucian scholars that he would not only restore Zheng Li's status as Princess Zheng, but also make her his queen.
