“Wow!”

The three little guys’ eyes instantly lit up with amazement, and their eyes were filled with uncontrollable surprise and admiration.

“Father, you are so handsome!”

There was deep surprise and admiration in Ying Yinman’s voice, and her big eyes were sparkling with admiration for Qin Shihuang.

“Uncle Zhao, you look so much younger in this outfit!”

Little Sizi was not to be outdone. He said happily with a sweet smile on his face.

“Well… although it’s not as good as the lion and tiger, it’s still pretty good!”

Zhu Wanqing tilted her head slightly, commenting with a sly look in her eyes.

Faced with the three little guys’ generous praise, Qin Shihuang immediately showed a smug smile on his face, with a hint of childish pride in that smile.

“Hahaha! I think so too!”

Qin Shi Huang laughed loudly and said without any modesty, and he looked quite adorable.

Fusu, Meng Yi and Hu Hai, who were standing behind him, rolled their eyes at the same time and showed helplessness on their faces when they saw this.

Qin Shi Huang was in a good mood and said happily:
“Let’s go.”

Little Sizi said with a smile:
“Uncle Zhao, don’t worry, I need to change my clothes too.”

When little Sizi saw Qin Shihuang changed into a handsome outfit, he also felt itchy and wanted to dress himself up beautifully.

She didn’t want to appear rustic next to Uncle Zhao, like a kid from the country.

Ying Yinman also said quickly:

“Father, I want to change my clothes too!”

When she saw her father and senior sister were both wearing nice clothes, she didn’t want to be outdone, so she secretly thought that she also had to dress up beautifully and become the focus of everyone’s attention.

Qin Shi Huang was not in a hurry. He nodded gently and said:
“In that case, go back and change your clothes.”

“I’ll wait here for you to come back.”

When they heard that they had to go back to change clothes, Xiao Sizi and Ying Yinman shook their heads like drums.

“No, no, we’ll change here.”

Xiao Sizi said anxiously.

“Yes! Our membership card contains beautiful clothes prepared for us by Master and Sister Yu Shu.”

Ying Yinman also said the same thing.

How dare they go back?
Early in the morning, they woke Ye Jiangnan up and blew up Mo Yu’s basin into the sky. Finally, the basin fell right on Ye Jiangnan’s head.

Xiao Sizi and Ying Yinman knew that they had caused a big disaster, and they were terrified. They didn’t dare to go back at all, for fear that Ye Jiangnan would be furious once they went back, and then their little butts would be in trouble.

Qin Shi Huang didn’t know that the three little guys had made a mistake and ran away secretly. When he heard them say this, he didn’t suspect anything. He just nodded and said:
“Okay, in that case, go behind the screen and change your clothes.”

After hearing this, Xiao Sizi and Ying Yinman happily held hands and ran behind the screen to change clothes.

Zhu Wanqing had taken out a lollipop that was almost as big as her face, as if by magic. She stuck out her pink little tongue and licked the lollipop again and again, with relish, a look of satisfaction on her face.

Qin Shi Huang saw that she did not change her clothes, and he could not help but feel puzzled, so he asked:
“Niece Baoqing, why don’t you go change your clothes?”

Qin Shihuang and Zhu Yuanzhang were brothers. Zhu Yuanzhang called him “Brother Zheng” and he called Zhu Yuanzhang’s daughter “niece”. In his opinion, this was a natural thing.

Zhu Wanqing shook her head and said:

“I don’t want to change!”

“It’s too much trouble to change clothes, and Renjia is eating a lollipop!”

“If I go change my clothes, what will happen to my lollipop?”

“No, no, just eat the lollipop!”

As the little fellow spoke, he stuck out his little tongue and licked the lollipop in his hand. The expression on his face showed how much enjoyment he had.

Qin Shihuang looked at her, speechless for a moment, and couldn’t help thinking in his heart: She is worthy of being a descendant of the Zhu family. She knows that “food is the most important thing for the people” at such a young age. Her greedy look is quite cute.

Xiao Sizi and Ying Yinman changed their clothes very quickly.

Little Sizi changed into a pink skirt, which was as pink as the cherry blossoms blooming in spring.

The hem of the skirt is embroidered with delicate small flower patterns, and each flower is lifelike, as if emitting a faint floral fragrance.

There is a ribbon of the same color tied around the waist, and two small bells are attached to the end of the ribbon. When the little Sizi moves slightly, the bells make clear and pleasant sounds.

The sleeves are fluffy puff sleeves, as soft as clouds, which make her arms look even whiter and more slender.

Little Sizi wearing this skirt looks like a little princess walking out of a fairy tale world, so cute.

Ying Yinman’s style is completely different from Xiao Sizi’s.

She was wearing a black sports suit with a slim short top, which made her waist look particularly thin and made her look capable and fashionable.

The pants were tight sweatpants that made her long legs look even straighter.

Her hair was tied up in a high ponytail, which swayed gently with her movements, full of vitality.

The clothes are also embellished with some silver decorations, which sparkle in the sun, adding a cool feel to the overall look.

Little Sizi, wearing her new skirt, turned lightly in front of everyone, with a confident smile on her face, and asked:

“How about it, do I look good?”

“It looks good! It looks good!”

Qin Shi Huang immediately gave a thumbs up and praised generously.

“Princess Jinyang is so pretty! She’s like a fairy!”

Meng Yi also praised with a smile.

“Sister Mingda is so beautiful!”

Fusu also laughed.

“So beautiful! How can Sister Mingda be so pretty and cute!”

Hu Hai couldn’t help but admire it.

Little Sizi blushed as everyone praised her. She said a little embarrassedly:

“Is it really?”

Qin Shi Huang and others said in unison:

“Of course!”

After hearing this, little Sizi laughed happily.

Seeing that everyone was praising her senior sister, Ying Yinman felt a little unconvinced, so she asked anxiously:
“Father, what about me?”

After asking, she looked at Qin Shihuang with anticipation, her eyes full of desire to be praised.

Qin Shi Huang was speechless for a moment. All the words of praise he had just used were for Xiao Sizi. Now he wanted to praise his own daughter, but he couldn’t think of the right words for a moment.

“Um… our Yangzi… um…”

While Qin Shi Huang was trying hard to search for words of praise in his mind, he secretly winked at Meng Yi and others beside him, hoping that they could help him out.

At this time, Qin Shihuang couldn’t help feeling a little regretful. He should have killed Zhao Gao earlier.

Although Zhao Gao was a treacherous minister with great ambitions, one has to admit that he was very good at praising people in one way or another and never repeated himself, and listening to his words made people feel very comfortable and happy.

Meng Yi, Fusu and Hu Hai naturally saw Qin Shihuang’s eyes, and the three exchanged glances with each other.

At this moment, Fusu’s eyes suddenly lit up, an idea came to his mind, and he said:

“Yang Zi is just as beautiful.”

“If your senior sister Sizi is a fairy, then you are a celestial fairy!”

After hearing this, Qin Shihuang, Meng Yi and Hu Hai all admired in their hearts and silently gave Fusu a thumbs up.

This compliment was just right. It neither offended Xiao Sizi nor made Ying Yinman very happy.

After hearing this, Ying Yinman immediately showed a bright smile on her face and said happily:

“Oh, I feel embarrassed when my prince brother praises me.”

Fusu was relieved after hearing this, waved his hand and said:

“No, no, I just told the truth.”

On the side, Zhu Wanqing, who was eating a lollipop, saw this scene and rolled her eyes speechlessly, muttering softly:

“cut!”

“What’s the use of looking good?”

“Just look at it, don’t eat it!”

“Liger said that people cannot be just a vase or a decoration. They must have their own role.”

She muttered so quietly that no one could hear it clearly.

If they had heard it clearly, the snacks that this girl had stored on her membership card would have been taken away by her two senior sisters.

“Okay, let’s go for a walk outside!”

“Niece Sizi and Niece Baoqing have not been to Xianyang City yet. I will take you out for a walk.”

Qin Shi Huang said.

“it is good!”

The three little guys responded happily in unison.

……

After leaving the palace, Qin Shihuang did not take the palace maids and eunuchs with him, only the three little ones.

On the surface, he didn’t have any guards around him, but in fact, there were many people secretly watching them closely and protecting their safety at all times.

As soon as they came to the street, the three little guys were immediately attracted by the scene before them. They looked at everything on the street with curious eyes.

I saw that the wide streets were flat concrete roads, clean and tidy.

The streets are lined with stalls, and the stall owners’ calls are heard one after another, making the scene very lively.

There are a wide variety of goods on the stalls, many of which are things that were only available in the Tang and Ming dynasties.

Some stalls displayed colorful Tang Sancai (three-colored glazed pottery). Those exquisite ceramic products had various shapes and were lifelike.

Some stalls were displaying exquisite embroidery from the Ming Dynasty, with delicate stitches and beautiful patterns.

Some stalls display various novel gadgets, attracting the attention of passers-by.

The streets are bustling with people, wearing all kinds of clothes, with smiles on their faces, full of the breath of life.

“Wow!”

The three little guys looked like they had never seen the world before, their eyes were wide open, their mouths opened into a circle, and their faces were full of surprise and excitement.

Seeing the astonished reactions of the three little guys, Qin Shihuang couldn’t help but show a smug look on his face.

The Qin Dynasty today is no longer what it used to be.

All of this benefited from the in-depth discussions between Qin Shihuang and Li Shimin and Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the rich knowledge that ministers such as Meng Yi gained from the Ye Jiangnan Library.

Take the roads in Xianyang city for example, the scene in the past was completely different from what it is now.

Once upon a time, the roads in Xianyang City that were in slightly better condition were just paved with stone slabs.

However, even if there are stone slabs, they are only limited to certain sections of the road, and the paving distance is very limited. The vast majority of roads are still dirt roads, which is what people often call mud roads.

These dirt roads are easy to walk on when the weather is fine and it’s not raining.

But once it rains, people’s shoes, trouser legs and even clothes will be covered with dirty mud as soon as they go out, making them look miserable.

Now, every road in Xianyang city, even those seldom-traveled alleys, have become flat and clean concrete roads.

The emergence of cement roads has greatly facilitated people’s daily travel, so that they no longer have to worry about muddy roads on rainy days.

At the same time, it also provides many conveniences for vendors, making the transportation of goods smoother and faster.

The reason why Xianyang City is so prosperous and lively today is not just because of the construction of cement roads.

There is another crucial reason, which is the major adjustment of Qin Shihuang’s commercial policy – he no longer insisted on the policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce.

In the past, the reason for emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce was because the grain harvest was limited and many people could hardly even get enough food and clothing.

However, merchants took the opportunity to buy up the people’s grain and then sold it back to them at high prices, making people’s lives even more difficult.

But now, Qin Shihuang no longer has to worry about this.

He purchased a large amount of various grain seeds such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, and rice through the Wanjie Store.

Then, he sold these seeds to the people at a very low price, and patiently and carefully taught the people how to save the seeds and plant them again after the harvest.

With high-yield grain seeds, the people’s grain output increased significantly, which not only solved their own food and clothing problems, but also left them with surplus grain to sell in the market, increasing their income.

It is also because of this that the city of Xianyang is now very prosperous.

After people have eaten their fill and have some spare money in their hands, they will spend it.

Of course, some people also saw business opportunities, used their skills, and earned more money.

The three little ones, Xiao Sizi, Ying Yinman and Zhu Wanqing, were excitedly running around among the crowd.

Qin Shihuang followed the three little guys closely, fearing that if he wasn’t paying attention, the three little guys would disappear from his sight.

Little Sizi’s eyes were sparkling, attracted by the colorful trinkets on the stalls.

Ying Yinman was full of curiosity about those new gadgets. She picked up a wooden mechanical toy and studied its structure carefully.

Zhu Wanqing still had a lollipop in her mouth. When she saw a stall selling various snacks, she pulled Qin Shihuang’s clothes and said coquettishly:

“Uncle Zheng, I want to eat that!”

Emperor Qin Shihuang:”……”

This girl hasn’t even finished eating the food in her mouth, but she’s already thinking about eating something else.

However, Qin Shihuang did not refuse.

If this girl wants to eat, let her eat.

Otherwise, she would go back and cry to her father, saying that she couldn’t even bear to buy others a snack. What kind of person would she be then?
I am not a stingy person like Liu Bang!
……

the other side.

The Weiyang Palace of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Bang stood quietly on the tall building, gazing deeply at the scenery in front of him, as if he was in deep thought or reminiscing.

“Father, what are you thinking about?”

Crown Prince Liu Ying asked softly with curiosity.

Liu Bang had been standing here motionless for a stick of incense’s time.

Liu Ying didn’t know what his father wanted to do, so he just stood by and accompanied him.

At first, he could still be patient and look ahead with his father.

However, after a long time, Liu Ying no longer had that intention.

After all, the scenery before him was nothing special. It was just a common sight that he saw every day. After looking at it for a long time, he would inevitably feel bored.

Liu Bang sighed softly, with a bit of resentment on his face, and said slowly:

“I am calculating in my mind how much gold I have lost to the First Emperor, Old Li, and Old Zhu this month.”

When Liu Ying heard this, he was slightly startled, and then he suddenly felt relieved.

He thought that his father was depressed because of the political affairs in the court, so he came here to enjoy the scenery to relieve his worries.

Unexpectedly, it was because of losing gold playing mahjong.

Liu Ying knew that his father had met an immortal, and had also gotten to know the First Emperor and several other emperors.

Although Liu Bang did not take him with him, he told Liu Ying about the people and things he encountered in the Wanjie Store.

Thinking of this, Liu Ying methodically told the exact amount of gold that Liu Bang had lost:
“Father, you have lost a total of 878 taels of gold to the First Emperor this month.”

“I lost six hundred and forty-two taels of gold to Uncle Li.”

“I lost five hundred and eleven taels of gold to Uncle Zhu.”

“The total output of gold is 2,031 ounces.”

When Liu Bang heard this, his eyes widened in disbelief, and he blurted out:
“I actually lost so much gold?”

He knew that he had lost a lot of gold during this period, but he didn’t expect that he lost more than two thousand taels of gold. Converted into silver, he lost 20,000 taels of silver!

Liu Ying nodded solemnly and explained:
“Father, I have carefully counted the amount of gold you have exported each time.”

“If you don’t believe me, I have made a special record.”

“How about I go get the account book for you to take a look?”

Liu Bang waved his hand and shook his head, and ordered anxiously:

“That’s not necessary.”

“Go and burn that account book now. Don’t let your mother see it.”

After hearing this, Liu Ying did not respond immediately. He just lowered his head, and it was unknown what he was thinking about.

Seeing him like this, Liu Bang frowned and shouted:
“I’m talking to you, why are you lowering your head?”

“Go and burn the account book!”

“If your mother saw this, she would definitely scold me again.”

However, just as he finished speaking, Liu Bang felt his ear being grabbed fiercely by a hand, and he couldn’t help but screaming in pain:
“Ouch ouch!”

Without having to guess, he knew that the owner of this hand was Queen Lu Zhi.

“Queen, I was wrong! I was wrong, Queen! Please let me go!”

Liu Bang begged for mercy again and again.

Liu Ying secretly glanced at his father, and when he looked up, he was met with the fierce gaze of his mother, Queen Lu Zhi. He was so scared that he quickly lowered his head to avoid his mother’s gaze.

……

Da Qin, Xianyang City.

In less than an incense stick of time, the hands of the three little ones, Xiao Sizi, Ying Yinman and Zhu Wanqing, were all filled with the things they liked.

Little Sizi held various exquisite accessories in her hands, including colorful hairpins, small and exquisite earrings, and unique necklaces, and she loved every one of them.

Ying Yinman was holding all kinds of strange and bizarre gadgets, including delicate wooden mechanism boxes, small sculptures with unique shapes, and small objects that could make wonderful sounds, which were full of novelty and fun.

Zhu Wanqing was holding in her arms all kinds of delicious snacks, including fragrant cakes, crispy and delicious fruits, and sweet and juicy fruits. Her face was filled with a satisfied smile.

The three little guys grinned happily, and their smiles were as bright as the flowers blooming in spring.

Xiao Sizi said excitedly:

“Hehe! Fortunately, we came to Yangzi and didn’t stay in the store!”

Ying Yinman felt the same way and nodded vigorously.

She knew in her heart that if they stayed in the store, their buttocks would have been beaten swollen by Ye Jiangnan by now, and they would have been forced to practice.

“Yes! I know that father is the best to us!”

Ying Yinman said sweetly.

Zhu Wanqing’s mouth was so full of food that she had no time to speak. She could only keep nodding her little head to show her agreement. Her adorable look made everyone laugh.

Qin Shi Huang looked at the innocent smiles of the three little ones and couldn’t help but laugh along with them, his eyes full of doting.

Suddenly, a melodious and graceful sound of music came and instantly attracted their attention.

The three little guys immediately looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of street performers performing not far away.

Some artists played their instruments attentively, and the music composed by the ensemble of instruments was extremely pleasant to the ears.

Some artists danced gracefully, their figures light and graceful, like colorful butterflies among flowers.

Other artists performed thrilling acrobatics, flipping and moving in the air with skillful and thrilling movements, causing exclamations from people passing by.

The three little guys were attracted at once. They squeezed to the front of the crowd, their eyes wide open, staring intently, afraid of missing any wonderful moment.

After the performance, Little Sizi clapped his hands excitedly and cheered loudly:

“It looks good! It looks good!”

Ying Yinman also nodded repeatedly, her eyes full of admiration.

Zhu Wanqing ate the delicious snacks she had just bought and said vaguely:

“Eating delicious food and watching a show is just as comfortable as eating potato chips and watching TV.”

Qin Shihuang looked around.

Looking at the smiles on the faces of the people around him, Qin Shihuang felt extremely satisfied.

These were the people of his Great Qin. They had enough food to eat and were satisfied materially and spiritually, so he was satisfied too.

At least, he did not fail in his duties as emperor.

After watching the performance, Qin Shi Huang withdrew his gaze and shouted:
“Yangzi, Sizi, Baoqing, let’s go to another street!”

However, the three little guys didn’t respond at all.

Qin Shi Huang lowered his head and took a look.

The three little guys who were supposed to be by his side were nowhere to be seen.

Emperor Qin Shihuang:”……”

“These three girls!”

Qin Shihuang sighed helplessly.

He was not worried about the safety of the three little guys.

Not to mention that the three little ones learned magic from Ye Jiangnan. Even the most powerful masters would not be able to do anything to them.

As long as he was in his own city of Xianyang, there was no danger.

The city of Xianyang has been completely renovated and has become very prosperous, with many more people.

However, Qin Shihuang also took the safety of the people into consideration.

There were many soldiers patrolling back and forth throughout the city of Xianyang.

Even if there is danger, soldiers will arrive quickly.

Qin Shihuang waved his hand towards the air, and many people around him nodded at the same time.

Then, they spread out and looked around for the three little guys. (End of this chapter)
