Chapter 1002

The current Lishan project is nearing its end.

There are also many fewer laborers than before.

Many people have gone down the mountain and returned home.

There are still some craftsmen doing the final procedures.

There are still many homeless Xiongnu captives on Lishan.

A magnificent and atmospheric palace.

Written on it is: The First Palace Under Heaven.

This plaque was written by the First Emperor Ying Zheng.

Upon learning that the Epang Palace project was nearing its end, Ying Zheng had it written and hung here not long ago.

The front hall is written with The First Palace Under Heaven.

What is written inside is Epang Palace.

At this moment.

Li Xin stood in front of this huge front hall.

The Lishan project is under his management.

He inspects it once every day.

He will never be careless; after all, this is the Epang Palace.

His Majesty letting him be the supervisor means he trusts him.

He doesn't want any shoddy work here.

If the project cuts corners, he won't be able to escape responsibility either.

Therefore, he inspects a circle at a fixed time every day.

Today, Li Xin is inspecting the Epang Palace as usual.

Just finished inspecting a circle and stopped at the entrance of the front hall.

Li Xin is staring at the front hall in a daze.

He has been a supervisor here for a few months, and it will soon be completed.

He can go back soon.

It's not easy.

At this time, urgent footsteps came from behind, approaching him quickly.

It's almost finished now, and there are very few people here.

Who would be so hurried?

Li Xin turned around in doubt.

He saw a soldier who looked like a messenger.

Sweating profusely, jogging towards him.

"Greetings, General Li."

"What's the matter?"

Li Xin was somewhat doubtful.

"A letter from the imperial court, please take a look, General Li."

The messenger said, handing over a scroll with both hands.

Li Xin took the scroll and opened it.

After he finished reading the content on it.

He revealed a smile that was uglier than crying.

"It seems there's no hope of returning to Xianyang City again."

"Is such non-stop construction too frequent?"

Li Xin held the scroll, his brows slightly furrowed.

It says here that after the Lishan project ends.

Start the next project.

Build imperial roads.

Let the people of Lishan prepare in advance.

Also prepare in advance to move the Xiongnu people to another location.

The news he received before was that after the Lishan project was completed, construction would be suspended.

But how long has it been, and they've changed their minds again.

What is this situation?

"Do you know what's going on?"

"Before, it was said that after building this, it would be suspended first."

"Why has the next project suddenly started now?"

Li Xin looked at the messenger in doubt.

This is someone from Xianyang City; maybe he will know something.

"The little one doesn't know either, I'm only responsible for delivering the letter."

The messenger gave a bitter smile; it would be a ghost if he knew why.

Li Xin also laughed out loud.

What the messenger said was also correct.

If even a messenger knew about it.

Then this matter would have to be carefully investigated.

"General Li, although the little one doesn't know why."

"But this matter might be related to His Highness."

The messenger saw Li Xin frowning and couldn't help but remind him.

"His Highness?"

"Does this have anything to do with His Highness?"

This time Li Xin was stunned.

Didn't His Highness go to the northern border?

How did it get involved with His Highness?

"His Highness returned last night."

"And today, the next project continues."

"This is also just the little one's guess, I don't know if it's accurate."

The messenger could only say what he guessed.

Because he really didn't know.

"Oh, His Highness has returned?"

Li Xin was stunned.

He didn't expect His Highness to return so soon.

But calculating the time, it doesn't seem fast.

Then this matter is likely related to His Highness.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?

Then he had no questions.

It's fine to continue building.

Anyway, the Great Qin imperial court pays, it's not obtained by scraping the people's fat and ointment.

One willing to pay and one willing to work is the best.

If it were like before, forced conscription, he wouldn't have the heart to do it.

"His Highness has returned, is there any news?"

Li Xin asked casually, originally not thinking of asking anything.

After all, His Highness just returned, what news could there be.

"This actually really exists." ===== CHAPTER 1004 =====
