"Hey, Fifth Doctor, have you heard? The new miracle doctor can not only cure the diseases of the eunuchs and maids, but also give us medicine. He said he can cure the sick and defend himself if there is no disease." The guard outside Chenghuan Palace.
Soldier, whispered during shift change.
"Is this miracle doctor reliable?" The fifth doctor remained skeptical.
The soldier looked around and whispered: "To tell you the truth, a friend of mine once sought treatment from this great doctor because of physical discomfort. After taking the medicine several times, he is now as strong as a dragon and a tiger. Now he can make his mother feel better at night."
We can’t get out of bed!”
The fifth doctor heard this and looked around: "Do you still have any medicine? I have a cousin who is also unwell. He has a good relationship with me, so he asked me to help find a good doctor."
The soldier carefully touched his arms and took out a small pill: "My friend gave it to me, and there is just one pill left. Doctor Five... If you don't think so, your cousin can try it."
The fifth doctor took the pill and put it in his arms. The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
...
Xianyang Palace, main hall.
The First Emperor Ying Zheng was leaning on the bed, holding heavy letters in his hand, frowning in thought.
The whole world is not the land of the king, but now that there are Huns in the north and barbarians in the south, such a large territory is not the land of Qin, which really makes him feel like a stick in his throat.
But he is old.
He succeeded to the throne in the first year of the First Emperor (247 BC), when he was only 13 years old. In the 26th year of the First Emperor (221 BC), he destroyed the six kingdoms and completed the great cause of unifying the Central Plains. He became what he is today at the age of 39.
.
An empire like this is inseparable from the unity of the soldiers on the front line, and it is even more inseparable from his central control from behind.
After unifying the six kingdoms, the Huns and barbarians were afraid and sent princesses and daughters one after another. However, after working so hard day and night, he really felt old.
Sometimes he can only take some medicine to maintain his energy.
When a person reaches middle age, his body is really his biggest enemy.
The chief eunuch came in carrying a plate. He knelt down from standing up, but the plate remained motionless.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Li's illness has improved. This is a soup made from a prescription given by Dr. Gao. It is said to cure illnesses and protect oneself. Soldiers, ladies and gentlemen have all tried it, and no one feels any discomfort."
Ying Zheng raised his head, with a majestic voice and strong eyes: "Eating soup?"
"Dr. Gao said that all medicines must have their own poisons, and eating them for a long time will definitely affect the body. This soup is just the same as a normal meal, and it will not affect your body if you eat it for a long time."
Ying Zheng was thoughtful and nodded: "Leave it here."
"promise!"
After looking at the official document handed over for a while, there was no one in the room. Qin Shihuang stood up and stretched himself. Although the system of prefectures and counties ensured the concentration of imperial power, there was also a big problem. All matters big and small would be left to him, and he had to work hard.
Ying Zheng picked up the medicinal soup, looked at it, and drank it all in one gulp.
As an emperor, every meal served has been carefully inspected and tested, so there is no need to worry about it being poisonous.
However, in his opinion, this so-called dietary supplement is mostly for fame and reputation. What elixirs can be as effective as dietary supplements?
After a while, Ying Zheng, who lay back on the chair, felt a warm current emanating from his stomach to his limbs. His whole body was warm and yang-yang, and even his legs and feet, which were cold in winter, felt much better.
He hasn't slept peacefully for a long time since his mother colluded with outsiders to assassinate him.
But at this moment, he seemed to have returned to the feeling of safety and warmth he felt when he was a child in a foreign country, when he was a hostage and was bullied outside. At night, his mother held him and comforted him.
Two hours later, Ying Zheng suddenly woke up, stood up, looked at his hands, clenched them, and felt that his body seemed to have become a little younger, which was a bit incredible.
However, Ying Zheng rubbed the clothes on his chest and found that he was sweating heavily after sleeping. In addition, he wore a lot of winter clothes, which made it even more uncomfortable.
"Come here, take a shower and change clothes."
"promise!"
As the supreme emperor, eunuchs, maids, and sergeants were on duty outside his palace all the time, and food and baths were naturally always prepared.
Meticulous care is the treatment of an emperor.
Half an hour later, Ying Zheng suddenly felt refreshed and his whole body felt lighter. After eating that meal, he even felt that he could go into battle to kill the enemy now!
This soup is amazing!
"Pass an edict."
Upon hearing this, the CRRC official in charge of the emperor's driving and secretarial work quickly stepped forward and started recording.
"He is a high-ranking doctor, and he has made great achievements in treating the epidemic. He will be rewarded with a hundred gold, five noble men, two maids, and a residence with fertile land. From now on, he will be responsible for the meals of the widow."
"Also, let Concubine Li take care of herself. After one month, she will change to the Palace of Mental Cultivation."
"promise!"
After ordering the reward, Ying Zheng looked at the maid serving him who was only wearing single clothes and pulled her into his arms with interest.
"ah!"
Since his mother's betrayal, Ying Zheng will never trust any woman again. In his eyes, all women are like a piece of clothing, which can be worn or discarded.
One of the reasons why he is so good to Yushu is that she is beautiful, and the other is because of King An Tuan's heart.
Attacking the Xiongnu in the north was the established strategy of the Qin Dynasty. These small countries along the way had only two choices: either to be cannon fodder against the Xiongnu, providing food, grass, baggage and soldiers, or to be slaves to the subjugation of the country.
As for the consequences of conquering the Xiongnu, Ying Zheng never worried.
Da Qin will be victorious!
...
There is a tavern in Xianyang.
Yi Xiaochuan and Cui Wenzi were having a heated discussion at the corner on how to treat Yu Shu's illness. Yi Xiaochuan was sent to build the Great Wall. Although it was difficult, it was not particularly miserable. Because he was familiar with the Xiang family, he basically didn't use it.
What heavy work to do.
One day while building the Great Wall, they were attacked by Rongdi people. Yi Xiaochuan, who was living in Rongdi, also unexpectedly met Yu Shu, the princess of Tu'an.
Although Yu Shu was a princess, she was a weak country with no diplomacy, so she was destined to sacrifice for the country and her people, so she was sent to Da Qin to make peace with her.
A series of things happened along the way. Not only did Yi Xiaochuan fall in love with Yu Shu, he was also considered by the Qin general Meng Yi to be his missing brother. His fate seemed to have too many concerns on him.
Now he is even ready to risk his life to save people in the palace.
Cui Wenzi couldn't stand it: "Xiaochuan, to be honest, is it worth it? Your life was saved by another woman who almost sacrificed her life to save you. Now her life or death is still uncertain, but you have to live and die for a married woman.
regardless of?"
Yi Xiaochuan paused, and then said with an affectionate expression: "Old Cui, it's different. I am only grateful to Su Su. Besides, didn't Brother Liu Bang say that Lu Su has returned to the Lu family in Pei County? I am sorry for her.
If we meet again in the future, I will apologize to her!"
"But Yushu is different. From the first moment I saw her, I felt that I should be with her all my life, care about her, love her, even to the point of losing my life."
Cui Wenzi:......
He had never been so speechless in his life. Why didn't he know that Xiaochuan was such a scumbag before? In front of him and Gao Yao, the vows of friendship between Yi Xiaochuan and Lu Su were all a joke?
Even if Lu Su returns home safely, how will a woman live her life after being abandoned by her husband after staying outside for such a long time? How will she live? Could she just find a gangster and marry her?
"Hey, brothers, have you heard? The edict issued in the palace has been completed, and Concubine Li is cured of her illness!"
"Really? Is that like reaching the sky in one step, being granted a title or a mansion?"
"That's not nonsense. We, the Qin Dynasty, have established a country through military industry. You have no joke!"
"I'm jealous!"
Hearing this, Yi Xiaochuan was dumbfounded. He finally found Lao Cui, discussed his illness for a long time, and even went to the warehouse outside the palace to steal the Night Pearl in order to save people. In the end, he was cured?
Then will he never have the chance to meet Yu Shu?
Thinking of this, he went crazy. He stood up, rushed to the man, and grabbed him: "What did you say? Who cured Yu Shu?"
After several crises during this period, his strength increased a lot, and he even learned a lot of fighting skills. With the strength in him, he became impulsive in doing things when he was excited.
"what are you doing?"
"You're crazy!"
Several of the man's friends quickly gathered around, and Cui Wenzi grabbed Yi Xiaochuan back and apologized profusely.
"Sorry, sorry, my friend has something wrong with his brain!"
After hearing this, everyone present dispersed.
"If you have brain problems, don't come out to harm others!"
"Yu Shu, Yu Shu!" Yi Xiaochuan's eyes had lost their luster and he kept mumbling.
Cui Wenzi quickly covered his mouth and shouted the name of the First Emperor's concubine in public. It would be unfair if someone reported him.
With such a person, he now feels no sense of security at all, and even begins to miss Gao Yao.
It’s better to be an honest person, reading, studying, and cooking every day.
At night, Yi Xiaochuan sat by the bed in a daze, while Cui Wenzi brought the latest news.
"What? The name of the miracle doctor who cured Yu Shu was Gao Yao? He was a eunuch who was awarded a title for his merit. Now he is even responsible for the meals of the First Emperor and the people in the palace." Hearing this, Yi Xiaochuan was dumbfounded.
"Impossible, who in this era can have the medical skills to cure the plague!" Yi Xiaochuan began to doubt life.
Cui Wenzi fell into deep thought, and then said in a deep voice: "If that person is named Gao Yao, I think it is very possible. Have you forgotten that the cat we know is Gao Yao?"
Yi Xiaochuan was stunned: "You mean Mr. Le? Is he really born divine? I thought you were joking, Old Cui. No, how did Gao Yao become a eunuch?"
Cui Wenzi glanced at him: "Even if Mr. Le is not born divine, he must be a supernatural being. As for how Lao Gao became an eunuch, why don't you ask that good brother of yours?"
"Although Lao Gao is an honest person, it is often scary when an honest person goes crazy. Now he and your brother Liu have sworn enemies. As for you, you are still an accomplice. You should think about how to explain to him.
."
After hearing this, Yi Xiaochuan didn't take it seriously. Brother Liu told him at that time that the officials arrested them because they found out about their household registration problems.
It's not his fault that Gao Yao became like this, let alone Liu Bang's fault. Liu Bang even told him at that time that he had destroyed the favor of the boss before persuading the officials to avoid the death penalty.
The dignified Han Emperor would never lie to others!
Besides, now he only thinks about how to see Yushu again, Gao Yao? They are just ordinary friends. At most, they can comfort him after seeing him, and they can be regarded as friends.
How can I see Ok Soo again?
"Responsible for the meals in the palace... By the way, Lao Cui, do you think I can find Gao Yao and ask him to help me enter the palace to meet Yu Shu?" Yi Xiaochuan suddenly came up with a wonderful idea.
Cui Wenzi:???
You already have this attitude towards him. If Lao Gao hadn't been seriously ill, he would never risk his life to help you!
...
In the dining room, Gao Yao was patrolling the kitchen with his hands behind his back, checking various ingredients and seasonings to ensure that there would be no mistakes in what he cooked.
Ever since the First Emperor saw Prince Hu Hai's menu, he received an edict to be solely responsible for the meals of Prince Hu Hai and the First Emperor. Sometimes he ordered the dishes, and sometimes he was allowed to do whatever he wanted.
As the royal chef of the First Emperor, he was naturally very proud, and the eunuchs and servants in the kitchen welcomed him warmly.
The key point is that the two maids given to him by the First Emperor a few days ago are very good at serving people, squeezing their legs and feet, and taking baths, which makes them comfortable.
Although he can't do it, he can do it, which can be regarded as fulfilling his wish of more than 20 years and giving him a taste of women (not salty).
Thinking of the two cute maids at home, Gao Yao was looking forward to the day when he would achieve great success in Xuan Gong, and he would definitely pluck these two delicate flowers.
"Master Gao!"
"Good morning, Lord Bo!"
In the Qin Dynasty, Guanglu Temple was in charge of sacrifices, court gatherings, banquets, wine and delicacies, and the administration of its treasurer and cashier. There was a minister, a minister, a minister, and a chief clerk. Now Gao Yao is the lowest master.
Thin.
But what matters in the palace is not the position, but the emperor's heart. Nowadays, Gao Yao is specifically responsible for the meals of the First Emperor. Although he has not received him, it is said that the First Emperor always eats happily, and summoning him is a matter of time.
If someone offends him, he will be cooled off by just saying a few words.
Facing the greetings of these people, Gao Yao nodded casually, and some even patted their shoulders to show their affection after helping him do things. This also made them extremely excited.
I'm very familiar with the master. If I just mention a few words to the chief eunuch, wouldn't it be possible for me to become a successful person?
What is the position of the Chief Eunuch? He is the most famous person in front of the First Emperor, the dignified official of the carriage, the emperor's confidential secretary, and the personal chamberlain. He is also the most trusted person of the First Emperor. He has the responsibility of managing the emperor's jade seal and carriages.
This kind of person is said to be a brother-in-law to the High Lord Bo, which shows how happy His Majesty the Emperor has been eating recently.
"Master Gao, Bo!" The boy in charge of purchasing ingredients came back to say hello, and then spread out the purchased vegetables, condiments, sauces, meats, etc. for Gao Yao to inspect one by one.
The quality of the ingredients determines the lower limit of the taste of a dish. After Le Ye's training, Gao Yao now no longer fights unprepared battles.
During the inspection, the boy looked around and whispered: "Master Bo, someone outside asked me to bring you a message: Do you remember your old friend outside Weishan Lake? He is waiting for you in a tavern."
Hearing this, Gao Yao was stunned for a moment, and then he thought of the old man who loved to drink. Those were the most fulfilling days of his arrival in Daqin, where he practiced and learned to quarrel, and was happy and carefree.
After patting the young man on the shoulder, Gao Yao looked at him deeply and said, "I understand."
