Through Time Chapter 22

Wang Jian was extremely excited at this time.

As a great general of the Qin Empire, he had led his army to conquer Handan, the capital city of Zhao, then swept away the three Jin regions, then conquered the capital city of Yan, Ji, and finally destroyed Chu!

He was a great contributor to the unification of the Qin Empire!

His life was a glorious one!

But he was not without regrets in his heart.

It was that he had not been able to develop his art of warfare and martial arts to the fullest.

Of course, his son Wang Ben was also extremely good, but he was already in his middle age.

And his grandson Wang Li’s talent was very mediocre.

Wang Jian did not dare to ask for too much, he just wanted to make new people for the Great Qin and for the military family.

So when he saw this training method, which was unprecedented, his whole heart felt like a cat scratching.

He must have this young man!

“Your Majesty!”

Seeing that Qin Shi Huang did not say anything, Wang Jian spoke again, the

“This method of refining the body, though subtle, is crude and simple, indicating that this person is in the process of pondering the quest.”

“This is also an extremely critical time, if I let my old minister lead him in, this man will surely become a master of the art of war!”

“This is a fortunate event for the Great Qin!”

Hearing Wang Jian’s words from the bottom of his heart, Qin Shi Huang was slightly moved.

But he had also personally led his troops into battle, and with a few moments of doubt said that

“I don’t see that this training method is so miraculous.”

Wang Jian, however, shook his head and said.

“Your Majesty doesn’t know that these training methods, although simple, are extremely effective and are in line with the key principles of the art of war.”

“The most important thing is that the ideas in them are beyond what is commonly thought of, yet they are within reason.”

Qin Shi Huang instantly thought of the printing press, the principles of which were actually very simple, but just hadn’t occurred to anyone.

He nodded with a slightly bitter smile and said that

“What the general says is very true, only…”

Wang Jian asked, nervously.

“Your Majesty, just what?”

Qin Shi Huang opened his mouth, but did not know where to begin.

One could not say, “This man is my son on the outside.

But looking at Wang Jian’s expectant gaze, Qin Shi Huang could not bear to refuse in his heart.

Although he had been cruel to his enemies, he had never laid a hand on his own meritorious servants.

“So be it, it just so happens that I have not been out of the palace for some days.”

“How about, we leave the palace tomorrow, I know of a manor house not far out of Xianyang that is very nice.”

Qin Shi Huang said to

“The two generals will also come with me.”

Wang Jian instantly understood, and with a smile on his face, he said.

“Thank you, Your Majesty!”

Qin Shi Huang nodded his head and said.

“Zhao Gao, tomorrow when you leave the palace, there are some things you should explain to the two generals.”

Zhao Gao, who was at one side, answered and took the two Wang Jian out of the palace before saying.

“Two generals, tomorrow we will go out of the palace in plain clothes, we must not publicise it.”

Wang Jian nodded and said.

“That is natural.”

Zhao Gao thought for a moment and again said that

“One more thing to explain, whatever the two generals see or hear tomorrow, don’t be too surprised.”

There were some things that he could not say explicitly.

Wang Ben, who was on one side, spoke directly to

“It is only a plainclothes patrol, please rest assured that the order of the Central Vehicle Prefecture will not reveal anything, as my father and I live among the city all the time.”

Wang Ben was already a bit impatient when he called out directly.

Zhao Gao knew that the other party looked down on him as a eunuch, and was a little upset in his heart.

“His Majesty has asked the old slave to pass on the words, the old slave has finished, so I will not interrupt then.”

Or Wang Jian said.

“I am obliged to you, Lord Zhao.”

Only then did Zhao Gao’s face look a little better.

Only when Zhao Gao left did Wang Jian say, in a slightly reproachful manner

“Ben’er, you are also a marquis now, why are you still so fussy? Zhao Gao is one of His Majesty’s men, it is not good to offend him.”

Wang Ben had no choice but to accept his old father’s advice.

“Father has taught me a lesson.”

Wang Jian then said no more, thinking that he would see the young man tomorrow, and with a smile on his face said that

“Ben’er, tomorrow we will take a good look together to see if that young man can carry the banner of the military family or not.”

Early the next morning, several carriages left Xianyang under escort.

The carriages were extremely fast and by noon they had already seen the stately home.

“Zhao Gao, first send someone to tell the steward to set things in order.”

Zhao Gao understood what Qin Shi Huang meant; Kongjia was also in the stately home, and it would be bad if he accidentally met him.

Soon, it was reported that everything had been arranged.

Qin Shi Huang then took Zhao Gao, and Wang Jian and his father into the stately home, while the others scattered around.

As soon as they entered, Uncle Fu greeted them and said to Qin Shi Huang that

“Master of the family.”

Wang Jian and his father froze slightly at these words, but were soon relieved.

It turned out that Zhao Gao was talking about this matter, that this manor belonged to His Majesty.

Just where was the young man?

Before Wang Jian could say anything, Qin Shi Huang asked that

“Where is Lang’er?”

Uncle Fu returned and

“Master of the house, the Duke is leading the lunch and I have not had time to inform him that you have come over.”

He smiled and said.

“That’s just right, take us there.”

Having said that, Uncle Fu led the way ahead.

Wang Jian and his father looked at each other, with a vague look of doubt in their eyes.

Soon, they arrived at a small courtyard.

At that moment, as soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw nearly a hundred young boys and girls, sitting on a strip of stools and tables propped up with four wooden sticks in a strange style, eating.

Wang Jian only took one look at them and a look of shock appeared on his face.

As a great general, he naturally knew how difficult it was to have so many people eating together without any noise.

It required extreme self-control from every single person!

This was the way of the soldiers!

Sure enough, the man they’re looking for is here in the manor!

He was just about to say something when Qin Shi Huang opened his mouth and shouted that

“Long’er.”

Soon a handsome looking, well-built young man stood up.

Seeing the few people at the entrance of the courtyard, he immediately spoke with a few moments of surprise that

“Father, why have you come back.”

Hearing this, Wang Jian’s father and son instantly froze!

In their hearts, it was even like a million explosive thunderstorms rang out.

At this time, Zhao Gao turned his head surreptitiously.

Only after he saw the stunned looks of Wang Jian and his father did he return to his original position with a sense of satisfaction.

“Uncle Zhao, you’re here too, why isn’t Uncle Li here? These two are?”

Zhao Lang asked in confusion.

Didn’t this cheap old dad of his say he was going out for a long time before, how come he was back in less than a few days.

And he had brought two strangers with him.

No need to think, they must be partners again.

Normal people Pops would certainly not have brought to the main camp.

It’s just that these partners of Pops, how come every one of them is a handful of years old and still looks dull.

Last time, Uncle Li and Uncle Zhao were like this, sitting and chatting for a while before their legs went numb.

This made Zhao Lang worried about the future of his rebellion career.

Zhao Long had already made up his mind that he would talk to his old man about it later.

He should find more young people, so that he can have a future.
