At midday, the warm sun shines brightly, which is the warmest moment of the day.

At the east gate of the palace, Chen Xu, the Marquis of Qinghe, came out of the palace with a group of wives and daughters chatting and laughing. In addition to a few escorted eunuchs and palace servants, there was also Marquis of Jiancheng Zhao Hai.

"Don't forget to agree to Hai, a box of soap every month!" After walking out of the east gate, Zhao Hai held Chen Xu's hand with a smile on his face and reminded him.

"Don't worry, I will never forget it. Someone will be sent to Chunfang Garden when the time comes!"

"Two days later, Hai will hold a banquet in Chunfang Garden, and the Zuo Prime Minister must come to appreciate his face!"

"Can the Hou Jiancheng has not lost all his life today?"

"Hehe, of course, at that time, Hai must regain the capital he lost today!"

"Haha, okay, Marquis Jiancheng has prepared the gambling funds. Xu will definitely go to the banquet and say goodbye!"

Chen Xu was held hands by an old man with gray hair and beard, and felt a layer of goose bumps appear all over his body. After Shui Qingrou waited for everyone to get on the bus, he quickly got on the bus and said goodbye.

Chen Xu's carriage left, and Zhao Hai's smile slowly subsided. It was not until Chen Xu's carriage disappeared on the noisy and bustling street that he sighed slightly with a melancholy expression and summoned his carriage to leave.

Although he is ambition, he is not stupid. On the contrary, he is very smart. If he wants to get what he wants, the key to everything is actually Chen Xu. If Chen Xu is not optimistic about Hu Hai or disagrees with Hu Hai's ascending the throne and becoming emperor, then even if Hu Hai succeeds in proving the imperial edict, the end may be a waste of money.

He did not have the entanglement and resentment of Hu Hai towards Chen Xu.

He even began to regret it and shouldn't have joined Hu Hai's plan to search and behead his head.

In Hu Hai's opinion, his emperor's grandfather was able to drink and talk happily with the imperial censor Meng Yi, the left prime minister Chen Xu, the right prime minister Feng Quji, and the civil and military kings and princes and ministers of the court, and even chat with the emperor at any time.

But in fact, only he knows best. He has no power and no power but a noble marquis, and in the eyes of the court bosses like Meng Yi and Chen Xu, he is just an old playboy.

Everyone was very respectful to him, but they respected his status as the emperor.

Therefore, he had to slowly contact Chen Xu to see if he could win Chen Xu over and support Hu Hai. If Chen Xu's support might as well as he could ascend the throne without a forgery, this would be the best result. Moreover, it seems that the emperor is paying more and more attention to Hu Hai, which is a good sign.

But now it seems that Chen Xu is not very enthusiastic about him.

"Husband, today's emperor and uncle seem to be a little too enthusiastic?" Ying Shiman said strangely in her arms holding her second daughter.

"I also think that Marquis Jiancheng personally sent us out of the palace today, and I have never heard of it before!" Meng Wan also nodded in her arms with her daughter.

Shui Qingrou glanced at Chen Xu and smiled and said, "Today, Jiancheng Hou ate a piece of soap, and lost thousands of dollars to his husband. I'm afraid that his face is a bit bad, so he wants to invite his husband to drink to hide his embarrassment!"

"Hehe~ Jianchenghou's action of eating soap... Oh, I'm so laughing to death..." Meng Wan, who usually has a low laugh, almost threw her daughter to the ground.

"Don't say anything about Wanniang. Jiancheng Hou ate too fast, so we didn't have time to stop it!" Ying Shiman also hugged her daughter and laughed so hard that she couldn't sit steadily.

"Fortunately, this soap is made of sesame oil and is not poisonous. Otherwise, my husband would be very guilty today. I'm afraid the emperor would not know how to punish the marquis!" Fan Caiying also hugged her daughter and covered her mouth and laughed.

Fan Caiwei was also smiling and trembling on Chen Xu's shoulders. The plump and gentle pair of Chen Xu felt a little itchy.

There are many wives and concubines in the family, but few are really close. It seems that they have not favored their sister-in-law for more than a month. They cannot be neglected like this for a long time. So Chen Xu smiled and hugged Fan Caiwei's soft waist, gently pinched her a few times, and said, "Blame me!"

"Hehe, of course it's my husband. What you give to your father on weekdays is delicious food, but this time I suddenly give some uneasy..." Ying Shiman smiled and couldn't even open her eyes.

"Husband, just now in the palace, Ziying asked Yu Ji again why he didn't come to play with him. You must think of a solution as soon as possible!" After a burst of laughter, Shui Qingrou looked at Chen Xu with a little concern.

Chen Xu also started to rub his chin with a little toothache.

Yu Ji was only six years old when she first came to Xianyang, and Ziying was eight years old at that time. Later, Chen Xu became Ziying's teacher. There was a class every ten days. After a few years, Ziying became familiar with Yu Ji. After a few years, she felt very close to her childhood sweethearts. Originally, according to the idea of ​​the First Emperor, Ziying married Yu Ji, but Feng Quji was also stopped by Meng Yi. Now Yu Ji is getting older and older, and her childhood relationship does not make her fall in love with Ziying, but slowly turns to Chen Xu. Ziying grew up in the palace and has fewer playmates who can make her have heart-to-heart relationships on weekdays, and there are even fewer girls of the same age like Yu Ji, so she has a very deep relationship with Yu Ji, but this kind of relationship is a bit wishful thinking.

Now Chen Xu teaches Ziying in Qinghe Marquis' Mansion, and Yu Ji basically lives in Qinghe Villa outside the city. The chances of meeting the two have fewer opportunities, and the older they are, Yu Ji becomes more and more attached to Chen Xu, and he is starting to be close to Ziying and is reluctant to play together. Today, when he goes to the palace to visit the First Emperor, Chen Xu doesn't take Yu Ji at all, just to avoid suspicion.

According to the current meaning of Emperor Qin, Ziying may be the crown prince of the future Qin Dynasty, so Yu Ji's identity is not worthy of Ziying. This is the idea of ​​all nobles, and there is a deeper reason, that is, whether it is the kings, princes, nobles or royals, they do not want Chen Xu's strength to expand further. Chen Xu's identity is almost above the court. If Ziying marry Yu Ji, then Chen Xu is still half a father-in-law in terms of status (well, the relationship and title of Chen Xu's family are too chaotic, and the old guest is almost unable to figure it out). In addition, Ziying was originally a student of Chen Xu, and under the suppression of these three identities, it is easy to undermine the royal power.

The emperor may not care, or it may be said that Chen Xu will not be greedy for imperial power, but neither civil and military officials nor princes and ministers who are in the court will think so. After all, the belief in king supremacy is still deeply rooted, and a relative of the outside world cannot undermine the royal power and control the center.

What's more, the matter of Lu Buwei and Lao Ai is still in front of you.

Therefore, Chen Xu himself was also careful about this matter.

Almost all powerful ministers in history have no good endings, and the identity of a god-like disciple cannot guarantee that he will be safe in his life.

If he hadn't been worried that the Qin Dynasty would collapse too quickly, Chen Xu would rather take his wife and daughter to travel around the world on a big boat, or be a rich man with wives and concubines, rather than staying in a broken place in Xianyang to fight with a group of princes and princes. He had basically never been very happy since he came to Xianyang.

"Last time, Brother Yu wrote a letter saying that he would come back from Yingzhou in spring. Now it's already February. I think they are coming back soon. Let Yu Ji go with him. After all, he picked up Yu Ji. His father is too incompetent!" Chen Xu said with a wry smile.

"Husband, you really want to let Yu Ji leave!" Meng Wan couldn't help but speak.

"So what if I can't bear it, so what if I can't bear it. She must be Ziying's heart disease when she stays in Xianyang. If Yu Ji followed me, I don't know how Ziying views me. This is how it will be arranged!" Chen Xu shook his head and sighed.

"Husband, I just... I met the eighth sister and the ninth sister..." Ying Shiman suddenly looked at Chen Xu with a strange expression.

"How about the two princesses?" Chen Xu asked strangely.

"Eighth and ninth sisters say that I haven't seen you for a long time. I want to... want to go to spring with you and go to the spring and go to kites..." Ying Shiman stammered.

"Well, the spring is now in full bloom, and it is indeed a good time to go to spring and feast kites. I will arrange some tomorrow and invite them to play together in a few days and have a picnic. We haven't gone out to play for a long time..." Chen Xu nodded with a smile.

"Husband, you...you didn't think of anything else..." Ying Shiman opened her eyes wide and showed an extremely surprised expression on her face.

"What do I think? It's great to fly kites when going out. I also want to relax. Don't you want to?" Chen Xu asked in confusion.

"The eighth and ninth sisters are fifteen years old this year..."

"How about you at fifteen? You can't play or fly kites at fifteen..." Chen Xu was even more puzzled.

"Husband, a woman is about to get married at the age of fifteen!" Meng Wan also looked at Chen Xu with laughter and cry.

"What does that have to do with going outings?"

"Husband, you can't treat several princesses as little girls, just like Yu Ji, they are all close to you and like you, can't you feel it?" Shui Qingrou looked at Chen Xu with a strange face and said with a slightly melancholy expression.

"Ga~" Chen Xu shook his hand and pulled off two of the few beards on his chin. At this time, he finally understood the words of several wives.

"Husband, you have been in Xianyang for six years. At that time, a group of sisters were underage, but the youngest tenth girl this year is already thirteen years old, while the sixth sister and seventh sister were married two years ago. You also went to give gifts and drinks..." Ying Shiman said softly.

"Then I won't go... Alas, time passes so quickly. I really didn't expect that even Princess Huiman would be thirteen years old..."

Chen Xu sighed quietly and leaned on the back of the chair. He couldn't help but feel extremely moved when he remembered the little princess who often crawled on his body with his arms and asked his brother-in-law to beg for a hug.

The ten daughters and sixteen sons of Emperor Qin Shihuang are now basically all adults. Since conquering the Chu State, no one in Qin Shihuang's harem has been pregnant. At that time, Qin Shihuang began to seek immortality and immortality and increased his interest in seeking immortality. According to Chen Xu's speculation, it must be that those Fang Dao sorcerers ate some messy elixirs for Qin Shihuang to cause problems in the reproductive system. However, this kind of thing must be cured with current medical methods, and Qin Shihuang did not intend to cure it, so no one has ever mentioned it. However, the concubines who were lucky in the harem must be full of sorrow but helpless.

If history is not forcibly reversed by him, these young princes and princesses, together with all the royal families, will die one after another in a few years.

However, he should be said to have succeeded now. No matter how the Qin Dynasty develops, there is basically no possibility that the Chu-Han battle for hegemony will lead to the devastation of the people in the world. But what is depressed is that the two little princesses fell in love with him.

He did not feel careless on weekdays. At most, the princesses came to the mansion to play and were more intimate with a group of women such as Ying Shiman Shui Qingrou. They were polite and did not communicate much, but a group of women could not be unaware of it. Now that Ying Shiman suddenly talked about this, Chen Xu naturally understood it.

However, this kind of thing can only be strangled to death, and there is no other idea at all.
