Ying Zheng stared at Zhao Gao for a while and suddenly said: "You have been in the palace for many years and now you are leaving. I will see you off."
Zhao Gao was a little happy and a little sad.
Fortunately, the emperor really missed his old love and allowed himself to leave the palace. And the sad thing is... His Majesty has indeed given up on himself.
Oh, forget it, I really can't stay in this palace, it's too dangerous. Leave early and save a life.
Ying Zheng brought several hundred guards, accompanied by Zhao Teng, and left the palace with Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao actually had nothing to clean up, after all, everything had been confiscated. He just followed Ying Zheng to the streets of Xianyang.
Xianyang was very lively. Zhao Gao looked at the vendors selling food along the street and felt a little emotional. This is the place where I can call the shots, and I really can’t bear to do it.
Suddenly, Zhao Gao saw a newly opened shop, right next to Huaiguzi's wine shop.
The store has a big sign: Xianguo.
There is also a sign below the sign: One million dollars for one pot, don’t ask too many questions, and the counter-offers will be served with sticks.
Even though the signboard is so unceremonious, there are still many people queuing up to buy pot. Judging from their dress, they are all servants of the courtiers' families.
Zhao Gao grinned: "Huai Guzi, this guy is really arrogant. How can such an arrogant person be so prosperous?"
Zhao Gao thought about himself. He had been cautious and calculating all his life. In the end, I ended up with nothing. Where does this make sense?
Suddenly, the emperor's carriage turned a corner, and Zhao Gao had no choice but to follow the emperor and turn in.
After a while, Zhao Gao discovered that the emperor had entered his mansion.
Zhao Gao's residence had been sealed a few days ago. But now, the emperor ordered people to tear off the seal, clean the courtyard, and then walked in.
Zhao Gao's heart skipped a beat: "Did the emperor change his mind? Do you want to pardon me and reinstate me?"
But Zhao Gao soon gave up this idea. This is not in line with Ying Zheng's character. Once Ying Zheng decides on something, he will not repeat it.
Zhao Gao walked in full of questions.
Ying Zheng sat at the top, accompanied by Zhao Teng, while Zhao Gao sat at the bottom.
It didn't take long before a young eunuch served food and wine.
Zhao Gao was a little puzzled: "Are you going to hold a banquet to say goodbye to me?"
…………
Li Shui and Li Xin have already escorted Yan Le into Xianyang City.
After entering the city, Li Shui pulled Yan Le out of the carriage, tied him behind the horse, and dragged him all the way.
Yan Le's body was bruised and weak, but he had to stagger to keep up with the fast horse, which was really miserable.
The people around him pointed fingers at Yan Le, and some even threw stones and clods at him.
How do people know that you are a good person or a bad person? But since you were tied up by officers and soldiers, you are probably a bad guy. I'll give you a few slaps to vent my grievances in life, why not?
Yan Le was furious and gathered enough strength to yell at Li Shui: "How dare you do this to me? Aren't you afraid of the laws of the Qin Dynasty? Aren't you afraid of His Majesty's wrath?"
Li Shui said calmly: "I have a gold medal to avoid death, what do I have to be afraid of?"
Yan Le choked there and couldn't say a word.
Li Shui tied up Yan Le and swaggered through the market, quickly attracting the attention of many people. This kind of news always spreads very quickly, and within a short time, all the officials in Xianyang City knew about it.
Some people know and pretend not to know. For example, Feizhai, Lou Zhu and others. They were trying their best to distance themselves from Zhao Gao. Now that Zhao Gao's son-in-law has been arrested, they are even more afraid to show their faces.
Some people want to pretend not to know, but they can't hold back their curiosity and want to come and take a look, such as Wang Wan.
After all, Zhao Gao is his and Li Shui's common enemy. Li Shui took action against Zhao Gao's son-in-law. He had to know what happened, whether he was watching the fun or taking pleasure in his misfortune. If you want to win in the court, you must not close your eyes and ears.
Some people neither want to know nor are curious, but they come with a sense of responsibility in their hearts. For example, Chunyu Yue.
He cared about Da Qin, the courtiers, and Li Xin, so he had to come.
Some people didn't know anything, but they heard that Li Shui was causing trouble again, so they rushed over in a hurry, hoping to become familiar with him, such as Zhou Qingchen.
So half an hour after Li Shui entered Xianyang City, he seemed to have a tail behind him, followed by many people, and the tail was getting longer and longer, and there were many onlookers.
Yan Le saw that the important ministers of Xianyang City were almost here, and he couldn't help shouting sadly and angrily: "My lords, do we still have justice in Da Qin? Do we still have the king's law?"
The courtiers looked at me and I looked at you, their eyes were twinkling and meaningful.
Only Chunyu Yue was kinder and said to Li Shui, "What crime has Master Yan committed?"
Li Shui said calmly: "Rebellion."
When the courtiers heard this, they all rolled their eyes.
Is there any other crime? Did your rebellion come wholesale? Spending the whole day on other people's heads.
Yan Le suddenly became sad when he saw that the courtiers were just watching and took no substantive action. No one even proposed to loosen his bonds.
He thought of all the news in Xianyang City, and said with heartache: "My lords, this Huaiguzi is a murderer. He is going to turn our Da Qin upside down. Do you want to sit back and ignore it?"
"When Lu Lie was killed, you were indifferent because you were not alchemists. When Wang Li was killed, you were indifferent. Because you are not part of the Wang family. Now that I have been arrested, you are indifferent because you are not my father-in-law's people. . One day, when you are targeted by Huaiguzi, no one will speak for you. Because all the civil and military officials in the dynasty were killed by Huaiguzi."
Wang Wan coughed dryly and said, "Sir Huai, Yan Le is an official after all, and his background is not bad. It would be a bit unseemly to lead him around the streets to show off to the public."
Yan Le glanced at Wang Wan gratefully and thought, "It would be nice to be stuffed back into the carriage."
Who knew that Li Shuishen nodded in agreement, and then ordered someone to cover Yan Le's head with a black cloth.
No one knows who he is now. But it aroused the curiosity of Xianyang people. In the past, everyone just watched. Now everyone watching is asking who the arrested person is and why his face is covered.
In one day, Yan Le's name spread throughout Xianyang City.
Finally, the noise in the street disappeared. The black cloth on Yan Le's face was taken off and the rope was untied.
Li Shui stood in front of him with a smile and said, "Master Yan, I was just joking. I hope you don't mind."
Yan Le was so angry that he almost vomited blood: "Are you kidding?"
He looked around and found that he was in a house. Every plant and tree in this house was very familiar.
Yan Le suddenly felt something in his heart: "Isn't this my father-in-law's house? Haha, my father-in-law must have gotten the news and rescued me. No wonder Huaiguzi is so polite, he must be afraid."
Thinking of this, Yan Le stopped paying attention to Huaiguzi and strode inside.
Li Shui grabbed his arm and whispered, "It's better to let go of enemies than to tie them."
Yan Le said sharply: "It's too late to beg me now. Huaiguzi, I might as well tell you that if you offend me, you have offended my wife, and if you offend my wife, you have offended Mr. Zhongche Fuling. You If you are interested, you should go home as soon as possible to arrange the funeral arrangements, otherwise, I am afraid it will be too late."
Li Shuigan laughed: "Zhao Gao... may not have such great energy, right?"
Yan Le patted Li Shui on the shoulder and said sympathetically: "What kind of person is my father-in-law? If I want to kill you, wouldn't it be easy?"
Li Shui frowned and said with a horrified look on his face: "It doesn't work even if I have a gold medal to avoid death?"
Yan Le chuckled: "You are already dead, can the death-free medal allow you to survive? Besides, I will charge you with a crime today and take your death-free gold medal. I will charge you with another crime tomorrow. Is it difficult to chop off your head?"
"Huai Guzi, originally I just wanted to give you a small punishment but a big punishment. I didn't expect you to be so ignorant of current affairs that you would humiliate me. If I don't kill you this time, how can I have the face to survive in the world?"
Li Shui sighed and asked, "I just don't know where the coffins are cheaper?"
Yan Le laughed. He liked Li Shui's state very much. Very cowardly, very soft-hearted, and gives people a sense of accomplishment.
He couldn't help laughing loudly. After laughing a few times, he became a little confused: "Where have all the servants in the mansion gone?"
He looked around and suddenly found that there seemed to be several people sitting in one of the rooms.
Yan Le walked over in confusion and found that the person next to him was his father-in-law Zhao Gao, and the person above him was...the emperor?
Yan Le was startled and saluted quickly.
Ying Zheng said calmly: "Sit down."
Yan Le carefully sat next to Zhao Gao and whispered: "Zhang Yue, are you hosting a banquet for Your Majesty today?"
Zhao Gao said nothing.
Just now Yan Le was talking nonsense in the courtyard, and Zhao Gao heard it clearly. He heard it, and the emperor naturally heard it too.
At that time, Zhao Gao was scared out of his mind, but Ying Zheng did not get angry and kept looking at him with a smile. This made Zhao Gao feel very uneasy and he didn't know how to solve this matter today.
Anyway, he has lost everything. It was so easy to kill Huaiguzi, it was all in the past. The emperor should not settle scores later. You can't convict Yan Le just because he said some big words, right?
Thinking of this, Zhao Gao felt a little more at ease.
Zhao Gao was in a state of confusion, and Yan Le felt much calmer.
"I did say some arrogant things, but so what? My father-in-law is an official in the court, and I am bragging. Isn't it normal?"
"Besides, I only said that Huaiguzi offended me, and my father-in-law wanted to take it out on me. What's wrong with this?"
"The most important thing is that my father-in-law actually invited your majesty to the house as a guest. This shows that the holy favor is not bad. As long as your majesty still favors the Zhao family, if I say something excessive, I will be punished with three drinks of wine at most."
Thinking of this, Yan Le looked at Li Shui proudly.
Li Shui coughed dryly and said with a surprised look on his face: "Your Majesty is here too?"
Ying Zheng said calmly: "Huai Guzi, someone recently accused you of poisoning the fairy paper with the intention of murdering the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty. Is this possible?"
Yan Le was stunned and thought: "My father-in-law has told your majesty about this? It seems that your majesty is convinced. I came to my father-in-law's house today to discuss how to punish Huaiguzi."
Thinking of this, Yan Le rubbed his hands, feeling very excited.
Huaiguzi, Huaiguzi, weren't you very arrogant just now? Are you stupid now?
"Haha, I just like to see people get slapped in the face." Yan Le laughed wildly in his heart. He picked up the wine glasses on the table and drank them all in one gulp. Then he stuck out his tongue in a spicy way: "This fairy wine... is very exciting."
