Chapter 399: Insufficient Mana

The girl who was cleaning the tea set trembled slightly, her face instantly pale, and she knelt in front of the tea case and bowed her head and did not dare to make any moves.

These two girls were specially bought by Huangfuque to serve Chen Xu, and their figures and appearances were naturally carefully selected. The two knew that they were serving the Qinghe Marquis, who was famous in the Qin Dynasty. They were not only young but also rich, but also had a first-class and beautiful appearance. Not only were they loved by the emperor, but they were also legendary disciples of the immortal family. Therefore, the two girls had long wanted to see their future masters. Unexpectedly, after waiting for more than a month, they finally met and before they could see what their master looked like, they were sent out.

The censor Meng Yi was one of the three nobles of the dynasty. He asked for it, but the master would definitely not refuse.

When the girl thought that she would have to sleep with such an old man older than her father after entering the Mongolian Mansion, the girl suddenly began to tremble slightly after being frightened.

"This...is OK, but Lord Meng must be mentally prepared. I, a tea lady, are very expensive!" Chen Xu's face calmed down.

"Haha, even if the Marquis of Qinghe is spoken, I will exchange it for five servants. The Marquis of Qinghe will not suffer any loss!" Meng Yi obviously liked this little tea girl and directly stretched out five fingers.

However, Chen Xu saw Meng Yi staring at the little tea girl's snow-white thighs from time to time, and judged that this old man might not necessarily like the little tea girl, but liked the temptation of showing his legs.

Chen Xu glanced at Meng Yi gently and said, "Mr. Meng, we all have this identity. Do you think I am missing five servants?"

Meng Yi was stunned for a moment and nodded and said, "Qinghe Hou is right, so how can I change it?"

"How about the three shares of the porcelain factory?" Chen Xu stretched out three fingers and said.

Ga, Meng Yi shook his hand and pulled off a few beards, looking at Chen Xu with horror: "Marty Qinghe, do you want to take advantage of the situation to rob!"

"It's not just taking advantage of the situation to rob. It took me a long time to train these two little tea girls. I can't find the third one in Man Xianyang..." Chen Xu explained slowly.

"Stop, I don't want it!" Meng Yi's face suddenly became a little unhappy.

"Don't blame Lord Meng. It's not that Xu didn't send him away, but that there is really not enough staff at the moment. Otherwise, Lord Meng would send a few beautiful servants in your house to help you train them. Maybe he would be better than the two of them!" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"Well, this matter is not bad! The Hou of Qinghe has agreed that if you can't satisfy me by training, this tea lady will take it back!" Meng Yi nodded.

"Don't worry, I guarantee that you will be satisfied. If you are not satisfied, you will return and exchange it!" Chen Xu also breathed a sigh of relief.

While the two of them were talking, the two girls nervously brewed the tea and poured it for them. Chen Xu waved his hand and asked them to leave quickly, so as not to let the old man Meng Yi look at it for a few more times and then he couldn't help asking for a room here to do something bad, and he couldn't stop him.

Many times women are molested by men as hooligans. First, men have poor character, and also because women's clothes are too exposed. Although the short skirts of these two little maids look just medium and short skirts above their knees, they will not feel anything when they see them. However, for men of this era, it is even stronger than the impact and temptation of Chen Xu when he first saw a short skirt with a squid.

Therefore, it is understandable that primitive people like Meng Yi cannot move their eyes when they see them.

"Ahem, Lord Meng, please have tea!" Chen Xu picked up the teacup and reminded Meng Yi, who had been watching the two little tea girls leave, with his eyes still bulging outside.

"Oh, please, Mr. Qinghe!" Meng Yi came to his senses and took his eyes back with great regret. Then he picked up the teacup and put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, then took a sip, then showed a comfortable expression and said, "Ziyun Fairy Tea, indeed unique!"

"If Master Meng likes it, I will have some in my house. I will give you a few more bottles to me one day. Besides, spring is coming soon, and new tea will be launched soon. At that time, I will definitely help Master Meng keep more!"

"Haha, I agreed not to regret it!" Meng Yi was in a good mood and threw the unhappiness that Chen Xu had just rejected.

"Don't worry, Xu keeps his word!" Chen Xu nodded with a smile, and then changed his mind, "What do Lord Meng thinks about this court restructuring?"

"The system of three provinces and six ministries is an unprecedented change in the court since the Shang and Zhou dynasties. The agreement on the ninth rank official position will also make the management of our Qin officials clearer. I admire this story of the Qinghe Marquis! "Meng Yi affirmed Chen Xu's contribution without any hesitation.

"Yes, but I'm uneasy. At present, many civil and military officials must have secretly resented me!" Chen Xu sighed and put down his teacup.

"Will the Marquis of Qinghe be afraid?" Meng Yi glanced at Chen Xu and said lightly.

"I'm not afraid of being afraid, but it's said that open guns are easy to avoid hidden arrows and are hard to defend against. I'm afraid that someone will secretly tamper with the same trick in the factory as last time. It's always a problem for the Academy of Sciences to be troubled." Chen Xu said with a little depressed expression.

"Marquis Qinghe has been worried too much. Your Majesty is now very kind to you. In addition, there is the fate of Ao Ping and Shang Tu, who dares to act rashly!" Meng Yi shook his head and said.

"Not necessarily, can Lord Meng still remember what Ao Ping said before his death?"

"Which sentence?" Meng Yi thought about it and asked with a teacup.

"That sentence from Lord Zhao Gao and Lord Zhao!"

Meng Yi put down the teacup and held his beard and pondered for a long time and said, "Does the Queen of Qinghe have a grudge against Zhao Gao?"

"Don't know, Lord Meng?" Chen Xu was a little surprised.

"What do I know?" Meng Yi was a little confused, feeling that what Chen Xu said should be very clear.

"This is the thing..." Chen Xu was drinking tea while communicating with Zhao Zhe about the previous incident that happened in Wancheng. The bandits robbed Xia Liang and were castrated by Yu Wuya until they were concealed by Jiang Beiting, Ma Boyuan and others.

"Is this actually happening?" Meng Yi's eyes widened after hearing this, and his eyebrows and beard couldn't help but tremble a few times.

As a censor, all officials in the world were under his supervision, but he did not expect that such a big thing would have been concealed for more than a year and he still knew nothing. If it was heard by the emperor at this time, he would not be able to escape.

The most important thing is that this matter involves too much. I won’t talk about some officials in Nanyang County. Jiangbeiting was just a county magistrate at that time, and the responsibility was not large. County magistrate Ma Boyuan, County magistrate Gao Yi, County magistrate Cao Kun, and Censor Yong Po were all deeply involved in it. However, except for Gao Yi, the remaining officials of Nanyang County, all of them were dismissed and investigated when they passed by Wancheng last time when the emperor was traveling southeast. However, in addition to the officials in Nanyang, the current Ministry of Rites Zhao Gao and the CRRC Mansion Jiang Heng were involved in the current Ministry of Rites. Although Jiang Heng was also demoted during this restructuring of the court, the CRRC Mansion was changed from the Nine Ministers to the jurisdiction of the Secretariat and became the subordinate of Li Si, he was still a second-rank official like Zhao Gao, and was still responsible for following the Qin Shihuang’s chariot and going to court without any change in his status.

In addition to Zhao Gao and Jiang Heng, the general Wang Jian was also aware of this. Although he heard that Wang Jian's health has been getting worse and he has not left the mansion for more than half a year, as long as he is still alive, it will be very difficult to deal with this matter.

Meng Yi could forcefully report to Qin Shihuang to deal with the identities of Zhao Gao and Jiang Heng, but no one could move Wang Jian, and even the emperor was unwilling to touch him, and often sent people to reward and condolences.

"Mr. Meng, I was also accidentally involved in this matter. At that time, many officials in Nanyang were involved in it, and they made this bad decision because they were afraid of being retaliated by Zhao Gao. I was just a Li Dian at that time, so I was naturally powerless! Therefore, this hatred arises. Before Ao Ping died, he said that what happened in the factory was Zhao Gao's instructions. Perhaps all the civil and military officials in the court thought that this was an unintentional act of pulling people before they died, but I knew that what Ao Ping said should be true." Chen Xu said with a wry smile.

"Since there is a grudge, it is not difficult for Qinghe Hou to kill Zhao Gao as a disciple of the Immortal Family. You can solve it by putting a Taiyi Divine Thunder!" Meng Yi stared at Chen Xu and said word by word.

Chen Xu:...

"The real Taiyi Divine Thunder will consume mana, let alone... If I see who is not satisfied, I will let him thunder and blow him to death, will there be a place for me to stay in Xianyang?" Chen Xu rolled his eyes and said.

"Well, I almost forgot that Qinghe Hou did not have enough magic power, so maybe Zhao Gao was not killed by blowing him up and vomiting blood and being seriously injured again!" Meng Yi nodded.

Chen Xu thrust a few times, MMP, don't mention this, he still doesn't know what happened last time.

At this moment, footsteps came from the restaurant outside, and a strong fragrance floated in. Meng Yi's nose twitched and his expression moved: "What kind of dish is this? How could it be so fragrant?"

Chen Xu stood up with a smile and said, "It seems that the food has been prepared. Lord Meng invites you, let's have a chat while eating!"

"Okay, I suddenly feel very hungry!" Meng Yi couldn't wait to stand up.

The two walked out of the tea room. There were already several kitchen workers in the restaurant. The helpers and maids were placing dishes on the round table. These dishes were placed in exquisite porcelain plates, which looked both pleasing to the eye and tempting.

"Marty, Lord Meng!" A group of chefs and maids quickly saluted.

"You continue serving the dishes, don't worry about us. Lord Meng, please take a seat!" After Chen Xu finished speaking, he pointed to the two high-backed chairs placed next to the round table.

The two sat down, and the two maids quickly helped to arrange the dishes and tableware. Meng Yi's eyes had already fallen on a plate of golden roast duck in the middle of the round table of the house, and there was a bowl of sauce mixed with tea oil next to it.

"Mr. Meng, this is a secret crispy roast duck. You can dip it in the sauce! The little guy will help you get some!" A chef quickly introduced, then took a knife and cut a spine from the roast duck and placed it on the plate in front of Meng Yi.

Meng Yi was a little uncomfortable and waved his hand and said, "Let me do it by myself!"

"You all go down first! Instruct everyone not to get close to the room ten feet away!"
