Chapter 436: Marry Your Daughter to You

Chen Xu walked out of the court hall and looked at the civil and military officials who had dispersed one after another. When Meng Yi came out, he stepped forward and bowed and smiled and said, "Thank you, Lord Meng, for your help and explain!"

Meng Yi twitched a few times and said, "Even if I don't explain, Your Majesty will agree!"

"Haha, that's different. I must be grateful for help. How about I invite Lord Meng to have lunch at Qinghe Garden?" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"Great kindness!" Meng Yi's face suddenly turned apart.

Li Si and Feng Quji came out of the court hall almost side by side. They put on their boots at the door, then looked at Meng Yi and Chen Xu who had left together. After looking at each other, Feng Quji bowed and said goodbye to leave.

"Sir Feng stay!" Li Si called Feng Quji.

"What do you mean by Xiang Li?" Feng Quji asked with a plain face.

"I have no selfish intentions about burning books, but now it has made me feel embarrassed. Could it be that Feng Xiang also thinks that someone is confused and has made such a bad decision?" Li Si said with a somewhat ugly expression.

"Why should Li Xiang be so decadent? Yesterday's dispute, the Qinghe Hou may not have selfish intentions. However, I had read the newspapers sold on the streets today before in the morning. I carefully read Xun Qing's "Secretary Way" chapter and found that many of them made me suddenly enlightened. Xun Qing really deserves to be the great wise man at that time. However, Li Xiang took Xun Qing as his teacher, listened to his words, observed his actions, obtained his etiquette, and understood his righteousness. Only then did he have the glory and wealth of today. The arguments of the ministers: those with moral ministers, some usurped ministers, some meritorious ministers, and some saints... They can use the people inside to make a person, and some people outside to make a distance. The people are close to him, and the scholars believe in him, and the emperor is loyal to the king, and the subordinates love the people without tire. They are meritorious ministers. The superiors can respect the king, and the subordinates can love the people, and the subordinates can be like shadows. The emperor will encounter changes, and the emperor will be like a sound, and the emperor will be like a sound, and the emperor will be like a saint. Therefore, the emperor will be the king, and the emperor will be strong..."

Although he only took a quick glance at the newspaper in the morning, Feng Quji had a great memory and directly memorized the "Sin Tao" published in the newspaper. After memorizing it, Feng Quji stopped talking.

Li Si looked at the layers of palaces and city walls in the distance, and after a long time, he sighed and bowed to Feng Quji and said, "Thank you, Feng Xiangkuan. I used to think that I could be comparable to Yin Yi and Taigong Wang, and I could be a saint, but now it seems that I may not be as good as Guan Zhong, Sun Shuao, and I almost couldn't even be a hero. If I really let Your Majesty be criticized by thousands of men, I, Li Si, would not be able to taste the crime even if I died!"

"We may not be able to do the saints, but we may be able to be a virtuous minister. If even a virtuous minister can't do it, then be a hero. In short, we will definitely not be a moral minister, let alone usurpation minister. If the Qin Dynasty can have today, you and I will witness it with your own eyes. Your Majesty is a powerful and powerful man. Since you are in the prime minister, you will definitely not allow anyone to destroy him. If so, Feng will definitely be crushed to pieces and block it. Li Xiang, Feng will take a step first and say goodbye!" After Feng Quji finished speaking, he bowed his hand, and his sleeves swayed down the steps.

"Master, have you really done something wrong?" Li Si sighed to the sky, and a trace of depressedness appeared on his thin cheeks, as if he had become more than ten years old.

Chen Xu naturally disdained to guess Li Si's doubts. At this time, he and Meng Yi had already driven to Qinghe Park and warmly received Meng Yi in their exclusive reception room.

After drinking a cup of hot tea, Meng Yi was full of expectations, two maids brought in two bamboo baskets. One was filled with several fried golden cylindrical pancakes piled together, and there were also green and attractive mountain fresh vegetables and egg skins. The other was filled with several round pancakes, which were cut open in the middle, and there were sauce meat and tender green onions and leeks.

"Mr. Meng, please!" Chen Xu smiled and reached out to pick up a Jiamo with sauce and meat and tasted it.

Meng Yi was stunned for a long time, and his mouth grew several times and finally couldn't help but say, "Marty Qinghe, is this the meal you invited me to today?"

"Of course!" Chen Xu nodded while eating. After a few bites, the meat buns in his hand were reduced by half, and he also hesitatedly reminded, "Sir Meng, hurry up, this donkey meat should be eaten while it is hot, the noodles are crispy, and the braised donkey meat is fragrant and fragrant..."

After Chen Xu finished eating a donkey meat firewood, he reached out to take a golden thin roll. After one bite, the soup dripped from the roll and dripped it onto his hands. He quickly put his hands on his mouth and licked it clean. While licking it, he said: "Mr. Meng, this spring roll is also delicious..."

Meng Yi almost cried, his face twitched for a long time and sighed, and with a dark face, he still took a donkey meat and roasted fire.

When the Queen of Qinghe treats her, she has to give her face no matter what, but the depression in her heart is hard to say, and he feels like he is deceived.

"Crack~ Yes!" Meng Yi's mouthful of donkey meat was burned, and his face changed instantly. He felt a stream of donkey meat with strong marinade in the crispy dough instantly melting in his mouth. He suddenly felt that his soul was about to fall into it.

"Um... it's fragrant... it's really fragrant and crispy... it's delicious... it's also peerless and delicious..." Meng Yi exclaimed loudly while eating, and didn't care that the marinade dripped onto his beard and clothes. He finished it in a few bites with a few bites. Then he couldn't wait to reach out and pick up a spring roll.

Based on the experience of eating last time, since Chen Xu said it was delicious, then every dish should be delicious. Don’t just eat roast duck like last time and ignore other delicacies.

Sure enough, when the spring roll was in his mouth, Meng Yi couldn't help but praise him again. He finished a spring roll with fried eggs and vegetable sauce in three or five bites, and then he couldn't wait to pick up a donkey meat and cook it.

Chen Xu also ate two hot pots and two spring rolls in one breath, and then started to drink a bowl of fried millet porridge with a porcelain spoon.

Twenty minutes later, Chen Xu was sitting leisurely on the chair drinking tea and picking teeth, while Meng Yi leaned on the big chair, rubbing his belly while burping, but his face was still full of desire and looking at the two empty bamboo baskets.

"Lunch is not a regular meal, and donkey meat hot rice and spring rolls are the best foods. They are both convenient and fast!" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"What Qinghe Hou said is very good. Not only is it convenient to taste, but it is also delicious. When you are hungry in the office, these two excellent foods to satisfy your hunger are much more delicious than those cold, hard and dry noodles snacks!" Meng Yi couldn't help but nod.

The two chatted for a few moments. After drinking a cup of tea, Meng Yi then sorted out his clothes and sat down and said, "Marquis Qinghe invited me to eat this delicious meal. Do you need me to help me if you have something to do?"

"It's not for me to help!" Chen Xu also sat down and his face became slightly serious. "I just wanted to ask Lord Meng. More than a month has passed since he received the confession from Shang Tu last time. I don't know how Lord Meng arranged it!"

Meng Yi's face suddenly became serious, and he pondered for a moment and said, "Marty Qinghe, it's not that I don't want to bring Zhao Gao down, but that confession alone cannot solve the problem once and for all. I was really afraid that if Zhao Gao is not killed by His Majesty again, if Zhao Gao is activated by His Majesty again, I, Meng's family, will definitely be in danger. But Marty Qinghe, since I promised to interfere in this matter, I will definitely not give up halfway. The conflict between me and Zhao Gao is as Qinghe Hou said, sooner or later there will be a time when the dagger is revealed. Either he dies or I die, there will be no second result. I have been collecting evidence of Zhao Gao's intentions recently, and I am also waiting for an opportunity..."

"When is waiting for the opportunity?" Chen Xu asked in confusion.

"Zhao Gao is extremely powerful in the court. In addition to the emperor's favor, the young ministers, Zhao Wei, the young ministers, Yao Cuo, and the grand historian Hu Wujing, and the four ministers of the Ministry of Rites, Fengchang, Zongzheng, Taipu, and Dianke. These people have been officials in the court for many years and have colluded with each other. If Zhao Gao is moved without sufficient confidence, they will inevitably be slandered for joint defamation. Although I control the position of supervising all officials in the world, I cannot cover the sky with one hand. The emperor cannot overcome this hurdle. I actually have no choice but to do anything to anyone. Can the Hou of Qinghe understand my difficulties?"

Chen Xu sighed silently and nodded.

"So I have to collect enough evidence and take advantage of Zhao Gao's opportunity to make a mistake..." Meng Yi looked at Chen Xu and said.

"Mr. Meng is thoroughly thoughtful. It seems that I am too impatient!" Chen Xu sighed again, feeling that the spring rolls and donkey meat fired that he had just eaten had started to bloat and had some indigestion, just as uncomfortable as Zhao Gao was urging in his stomach.

"Qinghe Hou is not in a hurry. I have now mastered some evidence, and I just need to wait for the opportunity?"

"I wonder what evidence Lord Meng has obtained?" Chen Xu was shocked and asked quickly.

"Haha, last time you said that Shang Tu wrote his confession in prison and hid under the floor tiles. I was inspired and went to the Tingwei Prison to secretly search Ao Ping's cell. I also found that the same confession was written about the same content as Shang Tu. Compared with the two, it can further confirm that Zhao Gao was indeed ill-behaved. Moreover, I also personally searched Shang Tu and Ao Ping's mansions, and each obtained more than a dozen letters of communication between the three people, proving that the three people had repeated close contacts. It can be confirmed that the three people may have colluded, but these are just circumstance evidence. Therefore, I arranged for people to investigate important figures such as the butlers of Shang Tu and Ao Ping's mansions in the past. However, these people were sent to the border land. There is no news yet. But it is mid-spring now, and the journeys of the northwest counties have begun to be smooth, and I think it's time to come!"

"Mr. Meng is indeed very scheming, Xu admires it!" Chen Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief and bowed.

"I'm afraid I'm not scheming!" Meng Yi rolled his eyes at Chen Xu angrily.

"Hehe, those who are capable are working hard. Lord Meng is doing this job. If a villain like Zhao Gao is allowed to be in the high position, if he really succeeds in his rebellion, Lord Meng will die with his eyes open!" Chen Xu laughed dryly and picked up the teacup.
