Chapter 237
Qinhuang's palace, side hall.

Ying Zheng came with Zhao Gao.

Gongsun Yu had been notified a long time ago and was waiting at the gate of the side hall.During this period of time, she ran to Zhao Kun's mansion to play mahjong when she was free, and almost forgot that she had a biological son.

If Zhao Gaozhi hadn't met her, she would have left the palace again.

Now that she heard that her son hadn't eaten for two days, she also hurried over.

"Your Majesty, Hu Hai..." Gongsun Yu gave a salute to Ying Zheng, with a worried face, hesitant to speak.

Ying Zheng raised his hand to signal her not to worry, then turned to look at Zhao Gao, and asked calmly, "Where is that kid?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the young master has been locked in the study for two days, and the old servant refused to listen to any persuasion, saying that he wanted to study hard for the father."

Zhao Gao answered cautiously.

Ying Zheng stared and said, "No matter how hard you study, you still have to eat. How do you teach as a teacher?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Zhao Fuling has not eaten for two days."

As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, a young eunuch whispered.

Zhao Gao glared at him fiercely: "If you have no rules, who told you to talk too much!"

"The little slave is guilty..."

"Okay, you all get back..."

Ying Zheng glanced at Zhao Gao and the others, waved at Gongsun Yu and said, "Let's go, let's go and see that kid, he won't even eat after studying."

"promise,"

Gongsun Yu bent over to salute, and then followed Ying Zheng into the side hall.

Looking at Gongsun Yu and Ying Zheng who entered the palace together, a smile slowly appeared in Zhao Gao's eyes.

As long as Zhao Kun doesn't return to the palace, Hu Hai will definitely be able to get the moon first.

"Xiao Anzi, you did a good job. Reward." Zhao Gao said to the little eunuch beside him: "Today's tofu is extra, so I will reward you all. Go eat it!"

Tofu is a rare commodity in the palace, and ordinary people can't eat it at all. When they heard that there was tofu, the young eunuchs were very happy.

"Thank you Zhao Fuling!"

The little eunuchs saluted Zhao Gao respectfully, and then happily left.

Zhao Gao looked up at the sky, suddenly remembered something, and walked straight out of the palace.

.........

At the same time, Ying Zheng and Gongsun Yu came to Hu Hai's study.

He didn't greet anyone, he opened the door by himself.

When Hu Hai inside heard the sound of the door opening, he was a little displeased: "Didn't you say that? Don't disturb my study!"

"You can't study without eating!"

Ying Zheng walked in with his hands behind his back.

Surprised and delighted, Hu Hai got up hastily: "I pay my respects to my father and mother."

"My son hasn't eaten for two days, is he still in good health?" Gongsun Yu stepped forward, looked at Hu Hai carefully, and then reached out his hand to caress his face sadly: "Look at him, he's so hungry, he's lost weight."

Hu Hai: "..."

Ying Zheng: "..."

The two looked at each other, a little embarrassed.

In a short while, Ying Zheng coughed lightly, and said: "I heard that you are studying, then you tell me, a one-year plan is better than tree valleys, a ten-year plan is better than trees, and a lifelong plan is better than tree people, why not?" untie?"

Hu Hai thought for a while and replied respectfully: "What can be done within a year is worse than planting grain, what can be done within ten years is worse than planting trees, what can be done in a lifetime is worse than cultivating talents."

"Um……"

Ying Zheng smiled and nodded: "My son answered well."

"Then father will ask you again, how old are you this year?"

"Return to father, nineteen years old."

Ying Zheng said playfully, "If that's the case, why don't you apply what you've learned?"

"This……"

Hu Hai showed hesitation, and subconsciously looked at Gongsun Yu, who shook his head slightly, so he bit the bullet and said, "I also ask my father to make it clear."

"What can be obtained in one year is food, what can be obtained in ten years is trees, and what can be obtained in a hundred years is talent."

"It can be seen that talents are accumulated over time, rather than achieved overnight!"

"You are only nineteen now, so why rush?"

Ying Zheng said to Hu Hai, and ordered the servants to serve the food: "Come, let's eat first!"

Hearing this, Hu Hai's eyes were red: "Father, son..."

"Okay, father and emperor understand." Ying Zheng raised his hand and rubbed Hu Hai's head, and said softly: "Your body is hairy and skinny, and you should accept it from your parents. Don't do this in the future!"

Hearing this, Hu Hai gave a choked "um", and then had a full meal with Ying Zheng and Gongsun Yumei.

Seeing that Ying Zheng loved him as before, he rubbed his feet vigorously under the table, as if there was an ant named Zhao Kun under his feet.

He knew that he had won a ride.

.........

That night!

In the southwest corner of Pinyang City, Li Si's temporary residence, the secret room.

Zhao Gao, Feng Quji, Li Si and Yao Jia gathered together.

In a few days, it will be the Lantern Festival, and Xianyang officials will come to Pinyang to report on their duties.

Originally, Yao Jia wanted to come to Pinyang on the Lantern Festival, but after receiving Zhao Gao's letter, he couldn't sleep at night, so he had to come to Pinyang earlier.

"Order Zhao, you really scared me." Yao Jia looked at Zhao Gao with a bitter face.

Zhao Gao smiled noncommittally, and then teased Li Si: "Prime Minister Li, you have also learned from Mr. Kun's methods, how do you feel?"

"Humph!"

Li Si snorted coldly, and said with a gloomy face: "Zhuzi is really deceiving people too much!"

"This is just the beginning. If he finds a way to deal with us, the end may not be much better."

Feng Quji heaved a long sigh when he heard Zhao Gao's words, and asked puzzledly: "Order Zhao, why don't we have a good talk with Young Master Kun, and we have to fight to the death?"

"Talk?" Zhao Gao sneered, and asked back: "Feng Youxiang told the government, how can we talk?"

"This……"

Feng Quji was dumbfounded.

In fact, he has no enmity with Zhao Kun, on the contrary, he admires Zhao Kun quite a bit.

After all, what Zhao Kun did was beneficial to Daqin.

But a mistake would cause eternal hatred. Back then, he and Li Si designed Prime Minister Wang Wan, but now he had to stand with Li Si.

Seeing that Feng Quji was speechless, Zhao Gao looked at Li Si again: "Prime Minister Li, have you decided yet?"

"He killed my clan, this revenge must be avenged!"

"good!"

Zhao Gao smiled in satisfaction, and then said playfully, "Since Prime Minister Li intends to take revenge, I have a plan here."

"Ok?"

Li Si and Feng Quji looked at each other, and then they both looked at Zhao Gao.

Zhao Gao turned his head to look at Yao Jia again: "Yao Tingwei, did you bring the things?"

"Bring... brought..."

Yao Jia swallowed subconsciously, then took out a box from behind and put it on the table.

The moment Li Si and Feng Quji saw the box, their pupils shrank, they stood up abruptly, and angrily said, "Yao Tingwei, how dare you steal the jade seal!"

"Yao Tingwei, what do you mean?"

That's right, what Zhao Gao wrote to ask Yao Jia to bring was the jade seal of the First Emperor.

But this jade seal is not that jade seal.

Everyone in the world knows that on the jade seal of the first emperor, there are eight big characters "Ordered by heaven, long life and eternal prosperity" engraved by Li Si himself.

But people in the world don't know that there are actually two jade seals, and the other one is engraved with the words "Ordered by the sky, long life and good health."

This is the Lantian jade seal that Ziying knelt down and dedicated to Han Gaozu Liu Bang.

As for the jade seal engraved by Li Si, it was the one that was lost and found in Dongting Lake, that is, the jade seal made by He Shibi.

The reason why it is necessary to use Lantian jade to create an identical Chuanguo jade seal is that the first emperor accidentally lost it while visiting Dongting Lake, and then made it up later.

Although the jade seal made by Heshibi was lost and recovered, the Lantian jade seal made later was actually used.

During this east tour, the first emperor also brought the Lantian Jade Seal, while the Heshi Jade Seal was placed in the Xianyang Palace.

Now that the Heshi Jade Seal was brought here by Yao Jia, Li Si and Feng Quji recognized it at a glance.

Facing their angry reprimand, Yao Jia was very aggrieved, and looked up at Zhao Gao: "Master Zhao, look, this..."

"Two prime ministers, stay calm and don't be impatient."

Zhao Gao glanced at Yao Jia, then smiled and explained to Li Si and Li Si, "I asked Yao Tingwei to bring this jade seal!"

"Does Zhao Fuling know what this jade seal represents? If His Majesty finds out about this, we will die!"

Li Si looked at Zhao Gao coldly, frowned and said, "If the jade seal is put back safely, I will pretend nothing happened."

"That's right, Zhao Fuling, this matter is of great importance, not to be trifled with!" Feng Quji also persuaded with a worried face.

He regretted coming to the party a little at the moment.

But Zhao Gao smiled disapprovingly: "Everyone, don't panic, just listen to me."

"This matter is of great importance, I am not ignorant!"

"But." As he said that, he changed the topic, and continued: "As long as the jade seal is delivered to Young Master Kun, he will have to peel off his skin if he doesn't die!"

"Even if Young Master Kun is deeply favored by His Majesty, seeing this jade seal, I'm afraid he will be furious!"

hiss--

At this point, Li Si and the others gasped.

The heart said it was a poisonous scheme!
This is simply killing people invisible!

They were all thoughtful people, and they quickly understood Zhao Gao's intentions.

"But……"

Yao Jia said with some concern: "Although few people have seen this jade seal, the words 'Designed by Heaven and Eternal Prosperity' are well-known to every household. How could Young Master Kun be fooled?"

"Ah!"

Hearing this, Zhao Gao let out a "huh" and said with a sneer, "It doesn't matter whether he is fooled or not, as long as this jade seal appears in his mansion, even his whole family can't tell it apart!"

As he said that, a ruthless expression appeared on his face: "When the time comes, if we fan the flames again, Your Majesty will never spare him!"

Hearing this, Li Si frowned, and then asked: "Then how do you plan to place it in his mansion?"

"Prime Minister Li doesn't need to worry about this, the government has its own solution!" Zhao Gao restrained his expression and said confidently: "As long as His Majesty finds the jade seal, his good life will come to an end!"

"In that case, we will wait for your good news."

Li Si narrowed his eyes slightly, and immediately nodded to Feng Quji, who immediately agreed: "Then wait for the good news."

Now that the matter has come to this point, they can only hope that Zhao Gao's strategy will succeed. After all, Zhao Kun has gained power, and they also think that there is nothing good to eat.

.........

After leaving Li Si's mansion, Zhao Gao didn't go back to his residence directly, but went to a remote tavern in the north of the city.

When the bartender saw Zhao Gao, he was not as enthusiastic as greeting other guests, nor did he serve tea and water, and let Zhao Gao go straight up to the second floor.

When Zhao Gao's figure disappeared at the corner of the second floor, the owner of the counter gave the waiter a calm look.

The clerk immediately understood, turned around and came to a guest table, and said with a smile: "Guest officers, it's getting late, our shop is about to close."

"Closing?"

A drunken man looked out of the window with blurred eyes, and said with his tongue out, "This...it's not...it's not dark yet!"

"That's right, it's not dark yet, why... close!"

Another drunken man chimed in.

"I'm really sorry, both of you, our store is really closing soon, look, it's convenient!"

"Snapped--"

The drunken man stared, slapped the wine table angrily, and said drunkenly: "Do you know who I am? If you dare to drive me to wait, believe it or not, I will smash your shop!"

"Hey, that's right, smash him, smash his shop!"

"I see that the two guest officers are drunk..."

Hearing that the drunk said he was going to smash the store, the guy's voice suddenly became cold.

"You, you..."

The drunk subconsciously raised his head and wanted to reason, but when he saw the man's knife-like gaze, he shuddered.

He could clearly feel that this guy was unusual.

It looked like he had killed someone.

"I'm sorry, we have blind eyes, we'll leave right away, we'll leave right away!"

"roll!"

"Yes, yes, let's go..."

The drunk man took out money and made a bow, while pulling his companion, he scrambled out of the tavern.

The rest of the guest officers saw the two drunks leave, and followed them tactfully.

Soon, the lobby on the first floor was empty.

The guy hurriedly beckoned people to close the shop.

The tavern owner went upstairs and came to Zhao Gao's private room.

"Prepare a table of good food and wine, without my order, no one is allowed to come up and disturb."

Zhao Gao glanced around the private room, and said solemnly: "Also, light the incense and leave only one lamp."

"Okay, the villain will arrange it right away."

The tavern owner was tactful and didn't ask any more questions, turned around and left the second floor.

It didn't take long for a table of good food and wine to be arranged.

The entire second floor, except for Zhao Gao's private room, was empty.

After an unknown amount of time, a figure suddenly appeared by the window of the private room on the second floor.

"Tell me, what's the matter with me this time?"

"Drink two glasses of wine to warm up before talking!"

"No, I have something else to do."

"Ah Cheng……"

"Stop! Don't call me that!"

"Brother, after so many years, are you still brooding over that matter?"

Hearing the word "brother", the figure by the window visibly trembled, and after a long time, said hoarsely, "I don't want to mention that!"

"But……"

Zhao Gao opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

The figure seemed very impatient and said: "If you have anything to say, tell me quickly, I'm not here to catch up with you."

Hearing this, Zhao Gao shook his head helplessly, and sighed, "I'm the one who's sorry for you."

"Enough! I said I don't want to mention the past!"

"Okay, okay, let's not mention it, let's not mention it."

Zhao Gao knew the man's temper, so he stopped beating around the bush and said directly: "I came to you today because I want you to do something for me."

"What's the matter?"

"It's not important, just send one thing!"

"what?"

"A box! As for the contents of the box, I don't know very well."

"You don't know and still let me send it?"

"It's just entrusted by others!"

Hearing this, the black shadow was silent for a while, and then asked hesitantly, "Then... who is this box for?"

Zhao Gao said expressionlessly: "Young Master Kun."

"Ok?"

"The person who gave me the box seems to be familiar with Concubine Li, so the things inside must be related to Concubine Li."

"However, you can't let Young Master Kun know that this box was sent by you and me."

Hearing this, the figure by the window fell silent again, and after a while, he asked in a low voice, "Where is the box?"

"Ten mile slope outside the city, the stone statue of the mountain temple."

As soon as Zhao Gao finished speaking, the figure disappeared in the window without a trace.

After a while, Zhao Gao burst out laughing, and immediately shouted loudly downstairs: "Little Er, serve the wine!"

 Ask for a full order, ask for a monthly ticket
