Li Siping looked at Cai Yan, waiting for Cai Yan to speak.
Cai Yan looked like she had done something wrong, her face was a little embarrassed, and she didn't speak so fluently.
"A few days ago, um, my husband said that Mr. Chang'an did something bad. I wonder if you still remember?"
Li Si also looked a little embarrassed and said, "What are you talking about?"
At that time, Li Si was beaten into a pig's head by the First Emperor for accusing Ying Chengyu of rebelling.
Later, due to an accident on the tower, all the noble children were arrested by Ying Chengyu and sent to Tingwei Prison. The Tingwei Prison was filled up, and they felt unhappy and hated Ying Chengyu.
She once shouted in front of Cai Yan that she wanted to make Ying Chengyun look good and take revenge on Ying Chengyun.
So far, I have no revenge, and I have surrendered to the enemy.
"I saw that my husband was extremely angry and wanted to help him take revenge, so I cast a witchcraft on Mr. Chang'an."
"...Witchcraft." Li Si forced a smile and said, "What kind of witchcraft was cast?"
"Chang'an Jun is full of energy and energy. I tried my best, but I only made Chang An Jun sneeze for a day."
"...The imperial physician Ling Xia Wuji looked around but couldn't find any symptoms. It turns out it was you who did it."
Cai Yan nodded and said worriedly: "This won't cause trouble for your husband."
Cai Yan looked unnatural just now, not because she was frightened because she thought Li Si was cold-blooded, but when she heard Li Si naturally saying that she would die if she offended Ying Chengyu, she was a little frightened when she thought about what she had done in the past.
At first she wanted to keep this matter buried in her heart and not talk to anyone else.
But today I heard that Li Si would win Chenglong and the First Emperor mentioned it together and compared it.
Cai Yan was afraid that some witches would find out that Ying Chenglong had traces of his magic and would cause trouble to her family, so she had to speak out.
Back in Chu State, a country with bold folk customs, Cai Yan could not only take good care of herself and her children when her husband Li Si went to the Jixia Academy of Qi for many years to study, but she could also save enough money for Li Si to study, relying only on luck and hard work. But it can't be done.
Witchcraft is very popular in Chu State, with everyone from the princes to the common people believing in witchcraft.
For Qu Yuan, who held a high position in Chu State, the most noble thing was not his official position as Sanlu doctor, but his status as a great shaman who commanded all the shamans in Chu State.
In the Chu State, witchcraft was as pervasive as the laws of Qin. For injuries and illnesses, witch doctors were consulted, for divination in battles, and for strategies, witches were consulted.
Cai Yan is a witch.
"It's okay, just tell her." Li Si comforted Cai Yan, adjusted her clothes, picked up the clothes and put them on.
He was wearing a black satin gown, embroidered with gold threads, which reached from the collar to the ankles. It was a one-piece garment.
"Isn't it time to take a bath today? What is your husband doing in this way?"
When Cai Yan saw Li Si dressed like this, she knew that her husband was going out.
This kind of all-in-one clothing looks neat, but it is inconvenient to do things. Li Si never wears this clothing at home, only wears it when going out.
"I'm going to go to Xianyang Prison and report this matter to Lord Chang'an as soon as possible."
"Let's go after dinner."
"No, let's eat again when we come back."
In just a few words, Cai Yan's awe for Ying Chengyu deepened.
Li Si was in such a hurry, moving so quickly that he didn't even bother to eat. In the past, he would only appear when he had something important to report to the First Emperor.
"You are causing trouble to your husband."
"You and I are one body, no need to speak foreign words."
…
Winter~
The bronze golden bell hanging on the thick crossbar was struck and the bell tolled.
"Nephew Gan Xian was arrested, and Bao Bailing was also arrested when he went to visit him before. I thought that Your Majesty would also arrest that Zhuzi and send him to Xianyang Prison, so that the situation would be stabilized. But Lu Xu was killed on the balcony again, and his whole family was imprisoned. I am very angry. , I don’t know what you think.”
This was a very high-level banquet. Sitting at the head table was a middle-aged man with shaggy beard and hair and angry eyes.
】
There were a dozen people sitting on the left and right sides of his head. They all frowned and put their hands on the table. The hands under the table were clenched in fists.
The table eucalyptus used for this banquet is made of the finest rosewood. If you look carefully, you can see the bright luster on the rosewood table eucalyptus.
There is a saying that an inch of sandalwood is an inch of gold. Although this heavy rosewood table cannot be exchanged for the same amount of gold, it can be exchanged for one-fifth of the weight of gold without any problem.
This gold is enough for a person to live in the gold-selling cave of the balcony for half a year, but now it is randomly placed on the dining table in front of everyone.
The cups, plates, bowls, and lamps placed on the rosewood table are also made of high-quality ceramics. They are smooth and round without any edges, and the paint color is deep and flawless.
There is also a small bronze cauldron on each table. Under the small cauldron is a round solid bronze container, which burns neat square-shaped pure black charcoal.
The meat in the small bronze cauldron is cooked with fragrant meat and no fishy smell.
Dining with bells and cauldrons was the highest pomp in ancient times, even a monarch’s banquet was nothing more than that.
The third man on the left used a spoon to stir the small cauldron, watching the rich soup slide down Mu Shao.
He said: "You are all men. Which one of you has never been to the balcony? That Zhuzi is doing surveillance on the balcony. He knows how many secrets we have. If we don't get rid of him, who can eat with peace of mind?"
Next to him were five fat men with short builds and fat faces. It was obvious from their faces that they had plenty of food and drink. They kept using their tachyons to pick up the meat in the cauldron, and they were sweating profusely from eating.
I took a sip of cold wine and said the word "pleasure" first.
He opened his clothes, revealing his white and tender belly chest, and said, "I have told you before that this Zhuzi has a great request, but you just don't listen. His words about being an aristocrat during the wax sacrifice are definitely not a joke."
A man on the right opposite side clapped in agreement and yelled, "Yes," which caused the wine to drip on the table.
"None of our families has worked hard in the Qin Kingdom for decades, and the three Bai Mengxi families have been in power since the time of Mu Gong. With so many people, why do we have to give up to this? There is no need to say more today, it is just about fighting. The old Qin people never Rap!"
"..."
Everyone at the table spoke one after another, and most of them spoke fiercely, wanting to kill Ying Chenglong.
A few moderates said that Shuzi was His Majesty's brother after all, so they killed Li Si, who was practicing favoritism and bending the law, and then cleaned up the building. Then they went to the Guowei Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion to remove the Shuzi from his official positions and let him out of Xianyang Prison. It’s hard to sing with a single palm.
This banquet, which gathered the heads of the top families in Xianyang, seemed to have turned into a declaration of war against Ying Chengyu.
After everyone's crusade came to an end, the middle-aged man at the main seat looked at an old man who had been silent and eating his food slowly.
"Tsunari-kun?"
The old man cast his doubtful eyes at the main seat, which contained a piece of soft and delicious venison.
The middle-aged man pointed at the heads of the aristocratic families on both sides and said with a smile: "All the gentlemen have spoken, but Mr. Gangcheng did not say anything. This is not beautiful. Mr. Gangcheng could be just like the Meng family, standing on the side of Zhuzi."

[PS: Today I will update the basics first, and I will do some details and outlines, so I wasted a little time. Looking back, when the details have just been completed, the previous alliance leaders will be replaced. During the day, I counted six alliance leaders, two more, and four more. Eight chapters have been added. Currently, eight chapters are missing. . 】
