Chapter 46 Let These Two Beauties Serve You
On this day, Zuo Yi finally invited Si Yan to his house and prepared delicious food and wine. Halfway through the drink, he began to instigate Si Yan in both overt and covert ways.

"Have you heard that His Majesty has not been attending court recently, saying that he is ill."

Si Yan nodded and said, "I've heard something about it."

Zuo Yi observed his expression and said, "Well, the imperial physician said that it might be..."

He said half of the sentence and left the other half. Anyway, Si Yan would definitely understand it. Given the emperor's condition, it was only a matter of time before he collapsed.

Si Yan didn't respond. If this kind of discussion were to get to the palace, everyone would have their heads chopped off.

Seeing that the topic was going nowhere, Zuo Yi took a sip of wine and took the initiative to bring up: "I'm afraid that things will change. Several princes are ready to make a move. The legitimate status of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unquestionable. I'm telling you this because of our friendship for so many years. You don't need to tell me which team you should stand on."

Si Yan lowered his eyes and still didn't speak. Zuo Yi couldn't sit still anymore, so he lowered his voice and asked directly: "This is a matter of life and death. Those who obey will prosper and those who disobey will perish. It's only a matter of time before the prince succeeds to the throne. You can't have any other ideas, right?"

Zuo Yi didn't know why Si Yan was hesitating. It had clearly been agreed upon before, and he didn't express any objection.

In the past, Si Yan really had no idea. The prince was born to the queen and was the eldest son, so it was his legitimate right to succeed to the throne. As a first-rank general, he would naturally assist the new emperor with all his strength. Moreover, Zuo Yi knew more about the situation in the capital, and he always trusted him.

However, after regaining his memory, he reorganized his thoughts, investigated some things, and went deep into the court. He discovered some highlights that he had never noticed before.

Si Yan was silent for a moment, then looked up at Zuo Yi and said expressionlessly, "I heard that the prince's bloodline is in doubt."

After the words fell, Zuo Yi froze, a trace of astonishment flashed across his face. After suppressing his surprise, he retorted as if he was frightened: "Who told you that? It's nonsense. It must have been spread by those rabble to confuse the public."

Seeing his expression, Si Yan understood: "So you know that too." Zuo Yi's eyes dodged, and he hooked Si Yan's shoulder and said: "Didn't you not care about the court before? We have known each other for many years, but you still don't trust me. Do you believe those gossips?"

Seeing that the topic was getting more and more off-topic, Zuo Yi winked at the manager nearby. The manager understood what he meant and soon brought in a few lightly dressed women who walked up to the two men with their slender waists twisted.

Zuo Yi waved his hand proudly: "These two are the top beauties in Baihua Tower, both are top beauties. Come here and pour some wine for the general."

The woman was dressed charmingly, and exuded a strong fragrance that almost made Si Yan choke.

He frowned and looked over, complaining in his heart: This is it, not even as good-looking as the one in the mansion.

Zuo Yi caught Si Yan's gaze and smiled.

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost ready, Zuo Yi began to talk about business: "It's like this, there has been a drought in Jiangnan recently, the prince submitted a memorial, saying that some grain should be transported from Bianzhou, and His Majesty has agreed. This time, no matter who goes to provide disaster relief, it will be a great achievement. I recommended you to the prince, and you may be able to make a contribution when you have nothing to do. What do you think?"

Si Yan drank a lot today, and although he was a little drunk, he would not listen to everything others said. Right now, the palace was full of uncertainty and all parties were busy taking sides. The transportation of grain this time could be considered a big deal or a small deal, but the people in the court were all shrewd and would definitely conclude that he was on the side of the prince.

Putting this aside, disaster relief was indeed a meritorious service, and he was indeed free now. However, he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he thought for a long time and said, "I'll think about it when I get back."

Zuo Yi smiled and said "It's up to you", but he had already made up his mind.

"How about this, you've drunk a lot today, why don't you stay in my house and rest, and let these two beauties serve you."

At this moment, Si Yan was drunk. He hadn't drunk for a long time, so he couldn't bear it. When he vaguely heard Zuo Yi's words and looked up to refuse, he saw that the two women had already walked around him, taking off their clothes and even trying to sit in his arms.
