The Hero of the Moon in the Qin Dynasty, Dao Mo Wen, Chapter 820: No Immortal [Please subscribe*Please vote] Starting a business is difficult, but many people can stick to their true intentions in difficult times, but they can easily sink after making a fortune.
, arrogance, extravagance and lewdness will all appear.
For this reason, Li Si, Jin Yao and others are also on guard against what Ying Zheng will do.
How many emperors were models of kings in the first half of their lives, but became models of cowardly kings in the second half of their lives.
"Isn't this Epang Palace too extravagant?" Li Si looked at the drawings that the Mo family took out, and looked at Jin Yao with some hesitation.
The entire Epang Palace is so large that it would take at least three days for a person to visit all the residences in Epang Palace on foot.
All the materials used are the most precious in the world. The stones used for the foundation include Taishan stone from Mount Tai, white jade from the East China Sea, and purple gold from Western Shu.
Even the carvings in a corridor are all made by master carvers, not to mention the ornaments in the First Emperor's palace, all of which are rare treasures.
"That's why I asked His Majesty to personally supervise the construction and personally participate in the construction of Afang Palace!" Jin Yao said calmly.
"What's the saying in this?" Li Si still didn't understand that such a luxurious palace would really not make the emperor sink?
"Tonggu, do you still remember what you were like when you first arrived in Xinzheng?" Jin Yao asked calmly.
Li Si smiled and nodded, "I never dare to forget!"
That was the turning point in his cheating life, how could he forget it!
Jin Yao smiled and clapped his hands, signaling Black and White Xuanjian to present a painting.
Li Si opened the scroll curiously, and after taking a closer look, he was even more surprised.
The person on the scroll is none other than the person he looked like when he entered Xinzheng to confront the Korean courtiers. He was young, energetic and high-spirited.
"I didn't expect that your Majesty would let someone keep the paintings from back then!" Li Si also didn't expect that someone would actually draw what he looked like back then.
"At that time, my husband was in his prime and full of youthful spirit. Who would have thought that he would become the left prime minister of the Qin Dynasty in the future, with one person inferior to ten thousand people?" Jin Yao continued.
"This is the current gentleman!" Jin Yao motioned to Black and White Xuanjianzi to present another scroll. In the scroll was Li Si at the unification ceremony, one man below ten thousand, looking down upon the world.
Many years have passed between the two scrolls. If you are not familiar with them, it would be difficult to believe that the people in the paintings are the same person.
Although his appearance has not changed much, his temperament is so different that no one would think that they are the same person.
"I didn't expect that your Majesty would still remember it and keep it!" Li Si looked at the two scrolls and wanted to ask Jin Yao to come down, but he didn't know how to ask.
After all, these are his lifelong struggles!
"Thirty years in the east of Hedong and thirty years in the west of Hexi. The changes in the world are fleeting. If you are not familiar with it, I am afraid that you will be surprised by the changes in your husband and sigh with emotion."
"But only those closest to you will know the hardships along the way."
Jin Yao said with emotion.
No one can succeed casually. Outsiders will only see your appearance when you are down and your glory when you are successful, but few will notice the hardships of your journey.
"However, that's not what I want to say. I just want to tell my husband that it is easy to get lost in the success achieved overnight because the foundation is unstable, but only by stepping forward step by step can you appreciate the hardships of the world."
"If His Majesty did not participate in the construction of Afang Palace and lived in the Qin Palace waiting to move into Afang Palace, he would be blinded by the magnificence of Afang Palace. However, seeing the construction of Afang Palace with his own eyes and the changes every day, he would not
If you are so shocked, you won’t be confused!”
"It's like parents watching their children grow up with their own eyes. They always feel that the child is still a child, but the teenager has changed from a teenager to an adult, but the parents are not aware of it."
Listening to Jin Yao's words, Li Si understood that slow changes make it easy for people to ignore and not notice the changes, but when they suddenly look back, they realize that they have changed so much.
Just like the whole world, they were the founders of the empire, and they never noticed how much the empire had changed, until they suddenly looked back and saw that the world had been unified and the empire had become so prosperous and powerful.
"Luxuriousness and licentiousness are not a big problem for Your Majesty. What I worry about is life, old age, sickness and death!" Jin Yao said solemnly.
Old age and death are the most fearful existences for kings. Countless wise kings will be afraid of death and old age in their old age, so they make mistakes again and again, causing the reputation accumulated in the first half of their lives to instantly collapse.
Especially for an emperor like Ying Zheng who already knew that he had a heart disease, if Ying Zheng developed a fear of death and old age, no one knows how his character would change.
"Your Majesty, are you saying that your Majesty's heart will be consumed by old age and death, which will lead to fear?" Li Si also became solemn.
It is natural for human beings to fear old age and death. Even the first emperor of the ages, the First Emperor, is also a human being, so he will naturally have fear.
"It's not that I'm worried, but it's already happened!" Jin Yao became solemn.
"Lu Sheng?" Li Si was not only concerned with the work of the Prime Minister's Office, but also paid attention to what happened in the palace.
In the past two years, a group of alchemists originally from Yan State came to Xianyang and deceived the First Emperor into searching for the method of immortality.
The First Emperor seemed to believe that there really was a medicine and a method of immortality in the world, so he even allowed these alchemists to move into the Qin Palace, and also gave the leading people the title of marquis.
"Yeah!" Jin Yao nodded.
During that time, I, Li Mu, and Li Si were all away from home and failed to stop the admonition immediately. By the time they returned to Xianyang, it was already a foregone conclusion.
"Feng Quji, the imperial censor, has been impeached many times, but His Majesty suppressed them all!" Jin Yao continued.
This was Feng Quji's report after he returned to Xianyang. Even though there were objections from Feng Quji, Guo Kai, Meng Yi, Zhang Han and others, Ying Zheng still went his own way and refused to listen to any objections.
"Is there really a way to live forever?" Li Si looked at Jin Yao and asked hesitantly.
If you have never seen Fang Cheng and seen those immortal immortals, you may not have that deep impression of Ying Zheng, but it is different now. There are several immortals in the court alone.
If Ying Zheng doesn't have any ideas, that's really abnormal.
"Maybe, maybe not, but no one can solve the mystery of heaven and immortality!" Jin Yao shook his head.
"No immortality!" Jin Yao continued after thinking for a while.
"This world does not allow immortals to appear in the world. The longer they appear in the world, the more they will be infected."
"Wu'an Lord Li Mu, as the first person in the world, has now begun to suffer from diseases. Even doctors can't find any cause!" Jin Yao said solemnly.
At first, he thought it was Li Mu who was lazy and excused himself because of his illness. Later, after meeting Li Mu in person, he discovered that Li Mu's state of mind was declining and unknown illnesses were spreading in him.
