Chapter 044. Shocking the ministers

"Ahem, I'm just a clever one."

Ying Si pretended to be deep.

Apart from that, he really couldn't find any good excuses. Could it be that he was a time traveler and had moved bricks on the construction site?

In that case, the ministers of Qin Ting would treat him as a madman! "No, it's open and grand, and it makes people feel refreshed. Let's go into the various halls and take a look."

Ying Si smiled.

After hearing what he said, Zhang Yi hurriedly led the way with a smile.

As the chief supervisor of the entire New Palace, no one knows the structure and environment here better than Zhang Yi.

All the officials followed and watched the whole way. The more they looked, the more they felt dumbfounded.

This is different from the traditional design concept of Qin. Although it has not been completed, its grand style cannot be concealed.

Just look at the Lingyun Pavilion, the white jade steps are polished as smooth as a mirror.

This kind of stone is extremely difficult to forge. You need to find the best lime, burn it at high temperature, and then use superb skills to complete it.

Looking up from bottom to top, the throne made of pure gold has the momentum of a whale swallowing the world.

Above the round red pillars on both sides of the palace, golden dragons are entangled, and they also have the ambition of dominating Jiuzhou.

Ying Si nodded slightly, feeling very satisfied.

It was already autumn in Xianyang City a few days ago.

As a northern city and the capital of the Qin King, every autumn and winter season is a great disaster for the people.

The weather was a little cold this morning, so everyone wrapped a few more clothes, and even more excessively, putting on the sheepskin coat.

But even so, it was still biting cold! But since they entered Lingyun Pavilion, they couldn't feel the cold at all, and they even wore too much, and they were a little hot.

What's going on?

Everyone hesitated.

What's even more excessive is that the newly appointed Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Hu Buwei has already started taking off his clothes.

It was too indecent to take off his clothes in front of the king, but there was no way, he was too hot and sweating.

"Mr. Hu, Master Hu, here, have you forgotten even the etiquette of your subject?"

Mei Changsu was a little angry.

This guy was personally selected by Mei Changsu. It is said that he used to be an official to sell vegetables, but he was very good at analyzing.

Although this person has never read much, he is particularly sensitive to numbers. He chose him as the Minister of Revenue, and he also attracted Hu Buwei's talent in this regard.

Hu Buwei looked suspicious.

It seemed like I was saying, "Prime Minister, I can't do anything about it. It's too hot and I can't stand it until I take off my clothes."

Ying Si smiled and said, "Now in autumn, everyone is wearing more clothes. I asked Zhang Yi to roll the ground dragon in Lingyun Pavilion. If it is hot, everyone will take off."

Earth----Earth Dragon?

What the hell is that?

Everyone was shocked, my lord, what kind of gods do you think?

Hu Buwei blushed a little. He was originally a farmer and was puzzled and asked, "Your Majesty, what is the earth dragon?"

"Old Zhang would explain!"

Zhang Yi raised his waist and smiled and said, "At first, I didn't understand. It was taught by the Lord. This earth dragon was buried in pipes under the ground, so that countless heating can be sent to the place where the pipes are laid. Not only this Lingyun Pavilion, but also all the rooms in the new palace have ground dragons."

Everyone smashes their mouths, and they don’t know much.

Zhang Yi added: "The stone on this ground was also chosen by the Lord himself. It is resistant to high temperatures, heat-permeable and good. In the future, in winter, there is no need to set a brazier in the hall."

Everyone was shocked and didn't know what to say.

At first they thought that the Lord’s idea was toppling the new palace down and rebuild it, but they never expected that it would be a transformation.

Moreover, every design here seems careless, but in fact it has been carefully considered.

With the earth dragon, wouldn’t it mean that they don’t have to be afraid of frostbite when they go to court in the winter?

Damn, this is like a poor and hungry local bun, who has achieved a good fortune in an instant! Zhang Yi's face is full of enthusiasm and her chest is thrusting forward.

After all, Ying Si provided mainly craftsmanship and guidance, and the main contribution to the construction of the new palace was Zhang Yi.

He thought to himself, who would you say this time that I, Zhang Yi, can only talk?

Everyone paced back and forth in Lingyun Pavilion. Here will be the place where they went to court in the future, and their hearts couldn't help but feel warm.

Ying Si himself was so comfortable.

"Your Majesty, do you want to go to other places in the New Palace to see?"

Zhang Yi suggested that after all, just Lingyun Pavilion is not enough to show the entire appearance of the new palace, nor is it enough to explain his contribution.

Ying Si nodded: "Okay, lead the way!"

The group walked out of Lingyun Pavilion, and the wind was suddenly pissed off. Hu Buwei, who had just taken off his clothes, started to wear clothes in a hurry.

That posture seemed like the famous scene in the sketch "Homeworker" performed by Mr. Zhao in the Spring Festival Gala back then: Xiaopin, if you put on the vest, I will still know you.

Hu Buwei is now no different from the 'turtle' that Mr. Zhao said.

It's very funny! Not long after walking, there were rows of houses in the open inner courtyard. To be honest, it was not a house at all, it was just a small space.

These spaces are in pieces, and I counted them for a preliminary period. There are dozens of them, and the shapes are basically the same.

When you walk in, you can see something with a strange shape standing in every small house, and you can't name it.

The thing has a beautiful surface and a simple style. It seems to have been polished and polished carefully. It looks like a basin, but it is not a basin, and it contains water.

Hu Buwei swallowed.

He just sweated a lot in Lingyun Pavilion. He was a little thirsty at this skill, and he couldn't stand it as soon as he saw the water.

So he took the water in his hand and started drinking wildly while others were not paying attention.

But this scene was still seen by the sharp-eyed Zhang Yi.

"Sir Hu, don't drink it, it's dirty-" Hu Buwei drank enough, wiped the water stains on his mouth with his sleeve, and smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm from mud legs and my hands are not dirty."

He completely understood that he was wrong. Zhang Yi was talking about the dirty water, not his dirty hands.

"By the way, Prime Minister, what's the name of this strange-shaped 'basin'?"

Zhang Yi looked at Ying Si with a dark face and looked at him sideways. He found that Ying Si could no longer hold back his smile, so he also laughed wildly.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, why are you laughing at? I just want to learn more and see the world."

Zhang Yi coughed and squinted her eyes, feeling a little sorry: "Mr. Hu, I said, you must hold on!"

Hu Buwei didn't care: "I am a nine-foot man, even if my life is gone, my backbone cannot be broken."

"Then, I'll say it."

Zhang Yi said awkwardly: "Mr. Hu, this is not a basin at all, it is a toilet!"

toilet?

All the officials were blown up again! I still haven't heard of it, everything in the new palace is so novel.

"What do toilets do?"

Hu Buwei widened his eyes and felt a bad premonition in his heart.

Zhang Yi explained seriously and earnestly: "To put it simply, it is the place where we shit and pee. Did you see the wooden wrench above?

With a gentle pull, the water in the water tank above will pour down, washing away the excreted feces."

Hu Buwei felt a little nauseous: "In other words, this is a new type - shit basin?"

Zhang Yi nodded: "It can be understood so."
