Fake eunuch in the palace

Chapter 923 How can a man succumb to power!

"Have you heard? On the fifth day of next month, Emperor Chu will come to Suizhou with his ministers to marry the Queen Mother."

"Are you sure you are getting married and not marrying into the family?" Someone interjected.

For a moment, everyone covered their mouths and laughed.

"Save some face for Emperor Chu. They are more generous than us in marrying a daughter-in-law. They are hired by the country."

"Yes, don't laugh. The merger of the two countries is a great thing."

"Is Emperor Chu really willing to do so? He conquered the Kingdom of Chu with his own hands. I heard that since he ascended the throne, he has worked diligently and never stopped for a moment, paying great attention to people's livelihood. Ningyang has a prosperous image." One person said in a condensed voice.

The teahouse fell silent, and everyone frowned.

"You are just worried that the Queen Mother will not be clearer than you?" A loud male voice broke the silence.

"The two countries have signed an agreement. Regardless of whether the Queen Mother and Emperor Chu have any heirs in the future, the person sitting on the dragon chair can only be the Emperor."

Hearing this, everyone relaxed and started chatting enthusiastically.

"Commander, Cai Yuanzhi sent this." The secret guard gave Li Yi a long box.

Li Yi raised his eyebrows, opened the box and took a look, "Tsk, Tang Zhou's calligraphy and painting, when did he become such a good person?"

"Possessed by a ghost?"

"That shouldn't be the case." The secret guard took the box and closed it. "One meal cost 5000 taels. Cai Yuanzhi is not thick-skinned. How can he pretend that nothing happened."

"If you search too much, he has seen it before. If you don't give me something, he will feel uneasy."

"Go to Yue Tea House and book a private room." Li Yi threw his wallet to the secret guard. He was disturbed by Tang Zhenghao yesterday and didn't ask anyone. He wanted to see which cowardly bastard he was, even his former boss dared to mess with him. .

"What actions has Qin State taken recently? Are you still searching for Liang Meng?"

The secret guard nodded, "A lot of people have been added overtly or covertly. If we hadn't made arrangements in advance and retreated quickly, I might not have been able to come back."

"Lin Wan has a message?"

"No, but I'm sure he's not in the military camp anymore."

Li Yi raised his eyes and said, "That's really great. She will make Emperor Qin happy."

"Go." Li Yi waved away the secret guards and looked in the direction of Qin State, with a sure victory in his eyes.

At Yue Tea House, Cai Yuanzhi lowered his head and glanced at Li Yi cautiously, "You went back yesterday, didn't you cry?"

Li Yi leaned towards him, with a calm expression on his face, "It's only 5000 taels, it's not worth anything."

"Stop pretending, usually Shiliang will live or die."

"I didn't know Zuixianfang was so dark. I've already written to my uncle and asked him to copy a copy."

Li Yi raised his eyebrows, "Who is participating, Tang Zhenghao?"

"Aren't you scolding yourself?"

"Everyone pushed the wall when it fell. The Tang family's wall is so thick. Your uncle has a lot of iron heads. You rushed to push him because of such a trivial matter."

"I can tell you that Tang Zhenghao is not only evil-hearted, but also petty. If he cares about you, his little shoes can make you collapse."

"I can't find anything wrong with him, so just wait for your uncle to write back and lecture you."

"How can a man succumb to power!" Cai Yuanzhi held his head high.

Li Yi gave a thumbs up, "Stay away from me when you sacrifice yourself generously. The blood will be spattered on your clothes and it will be difficult to clean."

"Jiang Yi!"

"Forget it, you haven't read enough books and you have no moral integrity."

Li Yi chuckled, "You have the toughest tongue of all."

"How many times have I seen your coward, what are you pretending to be?"

Li Yi threw the long box to Cai Yuanzhi, "It's not like I can't afford a meal. I'll treat you as a gift on the day I get married."

"By the way, what's your brother-in-law's name?"

Cai Yuanzhi glared at him, this thing can't be tactful!
"Wen Fangqi."

"Are you afraid?"

"Pfft!" Li Yichai spurted out tea. "There's no need to be so scared. As long as you behave well, I won't remember the past." Cai Yuanzhi opened the folding fan and shook it twice.

"I'll go to you."

Li Yi put down his tea cup and said, "Wen Fangqi is not in Suizhou at all. Your sister was deceived."

Cai Yuanzhi closed the folding fan and patted it twice with a graceful gesture. "It's true that he's not here. I'm just telling you, don't let it out."

Cai Yuanzhi leaned towards Li Yi and said mysteriously: "He is in the territory."

Li Yi's eyes narrowed and he was convinced. This boy is very capable. Wen Yu went to one party after another to choose a girl for him, and his eyes were dazzled. He kept calm and found her by himself.

Tsk tsk, just wait for Wen Yu to take care of you.

"Congratulations, Brother Cai can walk sideways in Suizhou from now on."

"Don't hurt me. The blood on the heads of the Lu family has not dried yet. Do I have two heads?"

"You'll feel sober now." Li Yi refilled his tea.

"Brother Jiang, what do you think of the Queen Mother?"

"If the rumor spreads about the Queen Mother, even my ancestors will not be able to protect me. Cai Yuanzhi, you have a dark heart."

"You have a villainous heart!" Cai Yuanzhi took a sip of tea, his eyes blurred, "The Queen Mother is the person I admire most."

"She reformed the imperial examinations, built schools, quelled rebellions, abolished aristocratic families, built bridges and paved roads, supported commerce, and made the weak Da Gan prosper like never before."

Looking at Cai Yuanzhi's shining eyes, Li Yi took the folding fan in his hand and asked, "Do you admire the Queen Mother?"

"Nonsense, who doesn't admire Chen Qun?"

"It's a pity that I'm not Emperor Chu, so I can't stand up to such women."

"You're taking advantage of Su Thief!" Cai Yuanzhi hammered the table with an angry look on his face.

Li Yi squinted at him, "Aren't the Emperor Chu and the Queen Mother a match made in heaven?"

"Shit." Cai Yuanzhi swore, "That reckless man, after he ascended the throne, became a puppet, relying on the Zhou family for military power, and relying on the Sheng family for literature, without any opinion of his own!"

"For a guy like this, if it weren't for the dragon chair under his butt, he wouldn't even be able to touch the Queen Mother's side!"

"Pity the Queen Mother for sacrificing herself again and again."

Li Yi's face darkened, and he looked at Cai Yuanzhi faintly, "Brother Cai, I have reserved a good seat for you. You must have a few more drinks then."

"You still have to tell me this." Cai Yuanzhi raised his eyelids, "Which girl is she from? She is so well hidden."

"Why are you in a hurry? The wedding is coming soon, you will know." Li Yi touched his teacup with a deep look in his eyes.

……

Tang Yimeng held the bowl and sighed, "Is your medicinal diet really useful?"

"I've been taking it for almost half a month, but I haven't seen any effect."

Wen Yu glanced at Tang Yimeng's chest, which was indeed small.

“The smaller ones are more fresh.”

"Liar, I asked, and they all said that whether a man likes your body depends on whether he is anxious or not in front of you."

Tang Yimeng gritted her teeth. Li Yi hadn't touched her for such a long time!

"Who did you ask?" Wen Yu knew that Tang Yimeng was tough, but he didn't expect that she would dare to ask anything.

"Cuihong and the others."

Cuihong is the person Yunniang relies on most. Before leaving Zijing City, Yunniang wrote down her business methods and gave them to Cuihong.

If the former secretary of the capital drives them away, it won't be all in vain.

"Why can't I, a meat eater, compete with vegetarians?" Tang Yimeng stuffed a spoonful of medicinal food into his mouth and his cheeks bulged.

Wen Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She actually wanted to know how Tang Xin did it just right.

Nothing is perfect.

Forget about playing chess, calligraphy and painting, I'm in good shape!
