"Your Majesty, this is the swimming pool. In order to verify the characteristics of cement, I built this swimming pool with tiles that planned to lay the room. If there were no these tiles, this pool would be nothing strange, it was just an ordinary pool." Chen Xu explained with a smile after Qin Shihuang came to his senses.

"Your wonderful thoughts are indeed different from ordinary people. I am not in a hurry to go down and play with water!" Qin Shihuang strode to the pool, squatted down and scoop up a handful of clear and cool water and said.

"Your Majesty wait, I will arrange for the maid to get her swimsuit and you can enter the pool to play!"

Chen Xu turned around and ordered, and the maids who came in quickly brought the boxer-sized shorts that had been prepared. Chen Xu personally took Qin Shihuang to the shower room next to him to change clothes. The king and his ministers had no gaps, and they looked naked and looked calmly. Soon, they came out with their shirtless wearing the same style of shorts and slippers.

Chen Xu accompanied the emperor to swim, and the eldest prince Fusu quickly changed into a pair of big shorts.

Chen Xu only knows how to do dogs, and Fusu is similar. What made Chen Xu lose his eyes was that the emperor could not swim. However, the emperor's interest was obviously not swimming, but enjoying this rare coolness. Standing in the water, walking slowly, looking at each tiles around the pool, and stepping around the tiles at the bottom of the pool. He seemed to be particularly interested in the structure of the entire swimming pool. So Chen Xu could only follow the side and constantly explain to the emperor how to make and firing these tiles, as well as how to paste the tiles to the four walls and bottom of the pool, and also focused on the designs such as water inlet and drainage of the pool.

"Father, you can actually build one in the palace. Next summer, my father and the princess can play in the water and cool every day, which is a good tool to relieve heat!" Fusu said while following the dog paddle.

Qin Shihuang turned his head and glanced at his son lightly and said, "I have so many concubines in my harem. How big a swimming pool is enough to be enough. Moreover, it needs to be covered with ceramic tiles. This consumption is probably no less than a million yuan. I heard that King Zhou gathered treasures from all over the world to build the Lutai Yumen, and built wine pools and meat forests for pleasure. He was lustful and debauchery. He favored Daji's demon concubine, and he was fond of the court. He eventually led to the collapse of the court and the rebellion of the princes. I was not the Emperor Zhou of Shang, but he was diligent in his daily life to have the prosperity of the Qin Dynasty. Now with the assistance of Qinghe Marquis, he would inevitably build my Qin into a peaceful and prosperous era. This is the way of the emperor. I dare not forget it all day long and night. As my eldest son, how can you not care about my feelings? Today, not only does not persuade me to work diligently and simplely, but also bewitch me comforting my comfort and enjoyment. What is your intention?"

"Ah... Gudududu..." Although Qin Shihuang's reprimand was not loud, it sounded like thunder in Fusu's ears. He was so scared that he lost his soul and forgot to dig the water, and he sank directly.

"Young man, be careful!" Chen Xu grabbed Fusu's hair and lifted him up, but Fusu was still choked a few times, and the coughing splashed in his mouth and nose.

"Your Majesty is so serious. There is no conflict between enjoyment and diligence. The way of heaven is divided into yin and yang. Life must be relaxed and moderate to be the most consistent way of nature. The most important thing is to be consistent and moderate to everything!" Chen Xu quickly rescued Fusu.

"The words of the Marquis of Qinghe are naturally reasonable, but it is difficult to understand where the magistrate is. I think Emperor Zhou of Shang was also a talented and powerful person, but the country collapsed due to excessive debauchery. I asked Ziying to be a teacher, not only to learn how to govern the country, but also to learn how to deal with things. I ask you, did you ask Ziying about the last study?" Qin Shihuang looked at Fusu and asked.

"Your Majesty, I have asked me carefully that day!" Fusu stood in the water in great fear and answered.

"Okay, I ask you, what did Qinghe Hou teach Ziying last time?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the story that happened between the King of Tang and his minister Wei Zheng, the Marquis of Qinghe!

"What is the meaning?"

"The career is good at diligence and waste, and the action is accomplished by thinking and ruined by following!"

"Yes!" Qin Shihuang nodded, then pointed to a blue pool of water and said: "Education is diligent and wasteful. Whether it is study or governing the country, all things are the same. In the end, greed for pleasure will only slowly fall. I am diligent and dare not be lazy and lazy. I am also afraid that once I relax, I will not recover. Besides, the land of Lingnan is still in the hands of barbarians, and the people of the six countries are still ready to move. As long as I am a little careless, the country that has finally been built may turn around again. Do you know why I have never made a crown prince? Because... I am very disappointed with you..."

Qin Shihuang and his son looked at each other. Although the scene seemed relaxed, the content of the conversation was quite hot. It sounded like thunder in Fusu's ears. Even Chen Xu, who was watching, was shocked by the two words that Qin Shihuang suddenly said, was a little lost in his soul.

I don’t know if Qin Shihuang and Fusu had said these two sentences in history, but according to historical records, there were probably no ones.

Because after persuaded the emperor not to burn books and bury scholars, Fusu was sent to the Northwest Military Camp to resist the Huns with Meng Tian, ​​and he did not return to Xianyang until Qin Shihuang passed away. This was definitely not a speculation by later generations to let him control Meng Tian or exercise, but a true anger driven away. If he really wanted Fusu to take over, he would never do this. This was not in line with the way of cultivating the crown prince, because Fusu was in the Northwest Military Camp and was not familiar with the ministers in the court for several years. Such an unfamiliar result of the monarch and ministers would inevitably have problems.

The three were almost naked in the water.

Fusu opened her mouth and looked pale.

Chen Xu's hands tightly grasped the gap of a tiled tiles beside the swimming pool.

The scene looks relaxed, but the condition is very strange.

Ziying, who was playing not far away, was naked, and under the protection of several palace maids, she was playing in the water and laughter echoed throughout the small yard.

"Your Majesty, this is not a place to talk about the crown prince!" Although Chen Xu wanted to hear it very much, if such serious topics were spoken in such a place, it would probably cause storms all over the city if it was heard.

Because the emperor was actually dissatisfied with the eldest prince, this is the reason why he never made a crown prince.

"My son knows his mistake, so please punish him!" Fusu shuddered and saluted Qin Shihuang.

"Hmph, you don't know where you are wrong, what's the use of punishing you? I know that you believe in Confucianism and read the meaning of Confucius and Mencius. I ask you, "What does it mean that rotten wood cannot be carved, and the wall of dung cannot be shrouded?"

"Reply to Your Majesty, this is what Confucius said to reprimand his disciple Zaiyu, and blamed Zaiyu for not sleeping when he was studying in broad daylight."

"What's the end of Jae-yu?"

"The ending...the ending..." Although standing in the cool water, sweat beads as big as beans on Fusu's forehead instantly rolled down, and his body trembled slightly, "Zai Yu was destroyed by a clan!"

"Although Zai Yu learned from Confucius, his words and deeds did not meet Confucius' requirements. He was good at speaking and eloquent, and did not adhere to etiquette everywhere. Therefore, Confucius said: Do you want someone to be with your tolerance? Do you want someone to be with your words? Do you want someone to be with your words? Do you want someone to be with your words? Do you want someone to be with your words? Do you want someone to be with your mistakes. Therefore, he said that Zai Yu was not worthy of asking about the virtues of the Five Emperors, and that he believed that his virtue was a loss, but a gentleman..."

Qin Shihuang said this and stared at Fusu: "My Great Qin is stronger than magic, and he is always led by law, so that he can dominate the overall situation today. However, the six kingdoms are united, but the people are all unstable. The princes are destroyed and the people are still disturbed. This is not magic and cannot be governed. You are my eldest son, but you have never thought about the benefits of magic. You are mixed with a group of Confucian disciples all day long. If you are the crown prince, you will abolish the powerful laws and respect ancient rituals in the future. If you respect ancient rituals, you will be granted the princes. If this is the case, I will not destroy it in your hands forever? If the world is in a state of great power, if all rivers return to the sea, unification is the trend of the general trend. If I don't do it, there will inevitably be others to do it. But since I do it, I will definitely not allow the universe to repeat again. The princes of the Great Zhou have fought for hundreds of years, and years of wars have caused the suffering of the common people. There are countless people who die in swords and weapons. I care about it, so that the battle to destroy the six countries will be destroyed."

Qin Shihuang's words were like a heavy drum ringing in Chen Xu's ears. Although his words were not heavy, his voice seemed like thunder.

It turns out that the reason why Qin Shihuang never made Fusu the crown prince was because he was worried that Fusu would value Confucianism after he came to power, and that Confucianism would respect ancient etiquette and would inevitably mention feudalism. Fusu believed in Confucianism and hated magic, so he could basically be sure to divide his brothers and many ministers. Then, the six kingdoms that Qin Shihuang had worked hard to conquer China and unified China again returned to the situation of the princes fighting for hegemony in the Great Zhou Dynasty. In this way, Qin Shihuang wanted to end the melee of the princes and the people's destiny and wars would reappear.

Qin Shihuang was very wary of Confucianism, because the one who proposed the system of feudal division several times in the court had several quarrels because of the matter of feudal division. The reason for burning books was that Chunyu Yue, a famous Confucian scholar, had another conflict with doctor Zhou Qingchen at Qin Shihuang's banquet because of respecting ancient feudal divisions. Qin Shihuang handed the two over to Li Si to deal with. Li Si believed that the best way to end this constant quarrel and conflict was to burn poetry and books and hundreds of classics, so the world became ignorant in the future, so he asked to burn books.

Since Qin Shihuang agreed with Li Si's words, he adopted the county system to control the entire country, so there would be no situation of fighting among the princes due to the loss of control of Xianyang after the feudal period, and he would definitely not allow the Qin Empire to follow the old path.

Fusu's closeness to Confucianism made him very alert.

Or, the other princes are more or less disagree or are not interested in governing the country like Fusu. Only his youngest son Hu Hai has arranged for him a teacher who is proficient in law since childhood, that is Zhao Gao, who is a royal family member and is completely trustworthy.

Perhaps this is why Qin Shihuang took Hu Hai with him several times during his tours. Perhaps he believed that Hu Hai, who had studied the law since childhood, could inherit his position as emperor. With the assistance of Zhao Gao and Li Si, the Qin Dynasty must still be strong and respected, and would never follow the old path of fining.

In later history, it was said that Zhao Gao forged an edict to support Hu Hai to come to power, but in fact, there are two very unreasonable aspects of this.

First, why did Qin Shihuang only bring Hu Hai with more than ten sons?

Second, if Zhao Gao deliberately instigated Qin Shihuang to bring Hu Hai with him, it would not make sense. If Qin Shihuang didn't like Hu Hai, he wouldn't take him out even if he beat him to death.

In fact, there is another very important reason, that is, when Qin Shihuang was dying, the edict he ordered to write was to let Fusu: be buried with the army of Meng Tian, ​​and join the mourning in Xianyang. This edict did not clearly indicate that Fusu could succeed the throne. Qin Shihuang knew that he was going to die, but he was still unwilling to clarify the successor, proving that he was still hesitating.

It was this hesitation that ultimately led to the collapse of the Qin Dynasty.

Of course, these are the things that Chen Xu knew about happening in parallel time and space.

Because I am now soaking in this swimming pool that has been traveling through two thousand years, Qin Shihuang used very clear language to explain the reason why he did not establish Fusu, that is, he was worried that Fusu, who was close to Confucianism, would destroy the Qin Dynasty that he had finally won over his life.
