Chapter 970 All the Ancestors Have Knocked Their Heads Flat in the Ground! I Can Live Another Twenty Years!

Ying Chengjiao had never seen Ying Zheng show such a weak expression in front of him.

At this moment, Ying Zheng no longer looked like a hegemon who was conquering the world, but just a person trapped by life and death.

An ordinary person!

But the fact is that no matter whether you are the emperor of the ages or an ordinary person, you will all die equally in the end!

Ying Chengjiao's heart couldn't help but become a little heavier, and he forced a smile to cover it up, saying: "Brother, you are only over 20 years old this year, why bother to think about life and death?"

"Fathers are fathers and grandfathers, and elder brother is elder brother, and we can't generalize!"

"What elder brother should really think about now is how to treat Zheng Anqi and other twelve immortals later."

"If the title is too low, Zheng Anqi and others will not be unwilling, but they can't convince the world."

"If the title is too high, I won't agree!"

Ying Zheng was not fooled by Ying Chengjiao's poor skill of changing the subject, and his eyes were still sad and he whispered softly. He sighed, "How can I not worry?"

"I won't hide it from you, my brother."

"Recently, I have been feeling sleepy, lacking energy, and having a reduced appetite every day. Only by taking medicine to calm my nerves and nourish my body can I be energetic enough to handle state affairs."

"Even if I take medicine every day, I still need to take a short nap at noon (11:00), otherwise I will still feel very sleepy."

"I have only been in power for seven years, but I am already so haggard!"

"With my body like this, how many more seven years can I last?!"

Ying Chengjiao's eyes suddenly condensed, and a fresh bloody aura swept out from Ying Chengjiao's body!

Ying Chengjiao knew very well that Ying Zheng could live to at least forty-nine years old, and this year Ying Zheng was only twenty-nine years old, so Ying Zheng still had twenty years to live!

Ying Zheng's body should definitely not have such serious problems at this point in time!

Ying Chengjiao asked in a cold voice: "After I went to the battle, did you summon the alchemists and take the pills made by them?"

Ying Zheng seemed to be completely unaware of Ying Chengjiao's murderous intent. He shook his head slowly and said, "My brother has described the abilities of those alchemists in detail, and has either taken them back to Chang'an Junfu or sent them to the far west."

"I will never take the pills made by alchemists again."

Ying Chengjiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and guesses emerged from his mind.

Did someone in the palace poison Ying Zheng? Or are the building materials of Xianyang Palace rarely toxic? Or...

Ying Chengjiao suddenly asked: "How many hours do you sleep every day recently?"

Ying Zheng said calmly: "Still two hours."

Ying Chengjiao was stunned and asked: "Two hours?"

"Brother has been feeling quite sleepy recently, but he still only sleeps for two hours!"

Everyone knows that you should sleep when you are sleepy and rest when you are tired, right?

As a result, you are obviously feeling sleepy, but you still sleep for two hours every day?

Ying Zheng asked puzzledly: "Brother was a sleepy boy when he was young, but since he ascended the throne, he has only slept for two hours every day. I know this."

"There are a lot of government affairs in the court recently, and brother will only sleep for an hour and a half occasionally."

"Is there anything wrong with that?"

Ying Chengjiao said with a twitch in his mouth: "What's wrong with that?"

Ying Chengjiao knew very well that Ying Zheng would whitewash his rest time to Ying Chengjiao.

So Ying Zheng's occasional sleep of only one and a half hours ≈ Ying Zheng's daily sleep time is less than one and a half hours.

The daily sleep time is less than three hours, and at most he can take a nap for more than ten minutes at noon, day after day without rest, and this has lasted for nearly half a year. Ordinary people would have gone crazy long ago!

More importantly, when Ying Zheng is not sleeping, he is not having fun, but thinking about government affairs, handling political affairs, manipulating forces, and winning people's hearts. Even if he goes to the harem to find concubines to accompany him, it is just a means of governance for Ying Zheng rather than seeking pleasure. Every word he says during this period carries political intentions but no romantic feelings.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the twelve hours of a day, except for the one and a half hours of sleep, Ying Zheng spends all the rest of the time working or thinking intensively.

Now Ying Zheng feels very sleepy and lacks energy every day. As a result, he suspects that he is about to die, and he doesn't even doubt whether his rest time is reasonable!

Ying Chengjiao could not help but angrily scolded: "How many people in the world only sleep for an hour and a half a day like you?"

"You only sleep for an hour and a half every day, while the court officials have rest and you have no rest."

"Now you just feel quite sleepy, but you have not died suddenly at your desk. This is the blessing of heaven that my ancestors of the Qin Dynasty have prayed to countless ghosts and gods in the underworld!"

"You still have the nerve to ask what's wrong!"

Ying Zheng still did not realize the seriousness of the problem, and said as a matter of course: "Zhongfu, Guowei, and Yushi Dafu only rest every day. Two hours, and then take a short rest in the carriages on the way to and from the court."

"The government affairs are busy these days, and Zhongfu has even less rest time than your brother."

"After my father took power, he only rested for an hour and a half every day, and my grandfather and great-grandfather also rested for a similar amount of time every day."

"The soft couch next to the imperial study was moved there by my great-grandfather, and it really saves a lot of time going back and forth to the harem."

"My brother is really making a fuss."

Ying Chengjiao held his forehead with his hand.

Originally, Ying Chengjiao thought that Lu Buwei could fight for Daqin for another ten years, but now it seems that Lu Buwei's shelf life is probably only three or four years left.

You are really able to endure if you have a life!

But Ying Chengjiao also understands why the concept gap between Ying Zheng and Ying Chengjiao is so big.

Because Ying Zheng's father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and ministers around Ying Zheng, all the people Ying Zheng could contact consciously compressed their sleep time to the limit to expand their working time. Even the great-grandfather King Huiwen and the great-grandfather Qin Xiaogong, whom Ying Zheng had never met, were all ruthless people who put their lives on the government. They left traces of diligence in the subtle details of the imperial study in the Xianyang Palace.     So Ying Zheng naturally thought that such a desperate working state was the norm, and the healthy work and life state like Ying Chengjiao was an alternative!

Ying Zheng's energy could not cope with the "normal" work intensity in his eyes, so Ying Zheng naturally felt that he was haggard, not that he should rest.

Ying Chengjiao pointed at Ying Zheng and angrily said, "Brother, you just lamented that your father lived a short life, but now you are still using your father's diligence to motivate yourself?"

"The previous kings of our Great Qin did not have their lifespans shortened by the throne, but their lives shortened by diligence!"

"Brother, have you not seen the King of Yan?"

"According to Prince Dan of Yan, the King of Yan sleeps for at least three hours a day, and has at least two hours for pleasure and relaxation."

"The King of Yan has been in power for twenty-four years. Does the King of Yan look like he is about to die? It is no problem for the King of Yan to live another ten or twenty years!"

"If you really want to live a long life, you should set a rule to sleep at least three hours a day!"

"If you don't want Wen Xinhou, Guo Wei and other Qin humerus to die young, then issue a royal decree and order these Qin humers to sleep at least three hours a day!"

"Otherwise, it would be a miracle if you don't collapse!"

Ying Zheng immediately waved his hand: "My brother is lazy, so you can share more of the burden for me."

"But you are the King of Qin, how can you be so lazy!"

Ying Chengjiao persuaded earnestly: "Brother! This is not laziness! Sleeping three hours a day is really not much!"

"You are nearly thirty years old, no longer a young man in his early twenties, you should pay attention to your health!"

"If you continue like this, even gods will die! It's hard to save him!"

"I have found so many talented people to enter the court, you should use them freely!"

Ying Zheng finally showed some hesitation on his face: "Really?"

"Father and grandfather did not die because of the throne of Qin, but died because of hard work?"

Ying Chengjiao asked back: "Will I harm you?"

"If you believe me, then listen to my arrangement and sleep for at least three hours a day!"

"If the government affairs are not busy, it is best to sleep for four hours."

"It is best to relax for one day every ten days and have a good rest. This is the way to longevity!"

After a few breaths of silence, Ying Zheng said with emotion: "My brother will not harm you."

"In the past, I thought that my brother slept for four hours a day because he was lazy. "

"I never thought that my brother had already shown you the way to longevity, but you didn't know it!"

"When my brother went to war, the doctor advised me to "do things in all directions, the key is in the center" based on the situation of our Qin Dynasty. I combined my brother's advice to the censors and formulated a strategy for local governance, and wanted to delegate power to local counties."

"When this strategy is implemented, your responsibilities will be reduced."

"By then, you must sleep for three hours a day, okay?"

Ying Chengjiao almost cried with joy: "Brother, you finally figured it out!!!"

Ying Chengjiao was really happy!

If Ying Zheng died earlier than the original history, Ying Chengjiao would have to take over the throne of the King of Qin.

Not to mention how hard Ying Chengjiao would be at that time, Ying Chengjiao seriously suspected that he would be the next person to die from overwork!

The smile on Ying Zheng's face was a little more apprehensive: "But, after all, my brother has been working hard for a long time, and he is nearly thirty years old. It may be difficult to make up for the loss."

"Even if my brother wakes up in time, I don't know if he can hold on to the next seven years, and whether he can see the Qin Dynasty unify the world with his own eyes and realize our wishes!"

Ying Chengjiao said confidently: "Don't worry, my brother, you will definitely see the Qin Dynasty unify the world with your own eyes!"

"As long as my brother takes good care of his body and doesn't get too tired, you and I will definitely see our wishes come true in this world together!"

It takes two to three years to complete the unification, and another 17 or 18 years to promote unification and temper the people's hearts. The time is indeed very tight.

But Ying Chengjiao believes that the skyrocketing productivity can suppress many dissatisfactions.

When the productivity growth rate slows down and the people's dissatisfaction begins to erupt, the people's heart to Qin has already been formed!

Ying Zheng looked at Ying Chengjiao's thoughtful, determined, and desperate eyes with deep eyes, exhaled a breath of relief, and laughed softly: "That's right."

"Brother, you still have twenty years. Even if you can't see our wish come true, you can at least see most of it come true."

Ying Chengjiao nodded repeatedly in agreement: "Yes, yes!"

"Brother, you still have twenty...huh?"

Ying Chengjiao looked at Ying Zheng suddenly.

What did you just say? ! !
