The next day.
Ying Ziye took Xiao He and others into Xianyang Palace.
Fan Kuai, Xia Houying and others were quite excited. They walked into the palace and looked around curiously.
Above the court.
In the main hall, many new faces appeared, gathering behind Ying Ziye.
"Father!"
Ying Ziye stepped forward, stretched out his hand to invite Xiao He and others, and respectfully said, "These are the capable people recommended by my ministers."
"oh?!"
The First Emperor Ying Zheng heard this and looked over with interest.
Xiao He and others' expressions became calm. They bowed and kowtowed: "I (the common people) pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
The First Emperor Ying Zheng responded lightly.
"Flat body."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Xiao He and others bowed again and then stood up.
The First Emperor Ying Zheng looked at him.
I saw the black-faced man, huge but not bloated, extremely burly.
There is also the middle-aged man with an elegant face. His face is plain, but he doesn't show off his appearance.
Ying Ziye introduced him aloud: "This person's name is Xiao He. He is the chief jailer of Peixian County. Although he is not an official, he has a heart for the world and is well-read in poetry and Legalist classics."
"I once reformed the laws and regulations in Peixian County with my son and made great achievements."
He stretched out his hand to lure Xiao He, and then pointed at Fan Kuai.
Xiao He's face was calm and calm, and Fan Kuai imitated his example.
"This is Fan Kuai. He sells dog meat in Peixian County for a living. He is extremely brave and talented in marching and fighting. Because of his son, he once communicated with General Meng Tian, and Meng Tian also praised him a lot."
"He can be described as a general!"
After introducing Fan Kuai, Ying Ziye looked at Han Xin again and said aloud.
"His name is Han Xin, and he is a descendant of a military strategist who travels around the world."
"Although his reputation is not obvious, I can tell at a glance that he is a handsome man."
"In the future, he will become General Meng Tian and a famous general like Wang Jian!"
In his words, Han Xin was highly praised.
Han Xin felt a little shy, and Xiao He and others were surprised.
This was the first time they had seen the young master admire someone so highly.
However, all the officials in the court didn't quite believe what they heard, and felt that His Highness the Eighth Young Master was exaggerating.
But now that Ying Ziye was introducing Xia Houying and others, it was hard for them to interrupt.
It wasn't until Ying Ziye finished his words that the introduction was completed.
Young Master Fusu couldn't hold it any longer and spoke first.
"Eighth brother, one of them is a small official, one is a peddler and a pawn, and the other, to put it bluntly, is a ranger."
"What else can you do?"
"Could it be that you were deceived by them?"
Zhao Gao also laughed softly and said, "Yes, Eighth Young Master."
Young Master Hu Hai pretended to be speaking as Ying Ziye and joked: "Teacher, you don't understand this."
"My Bago's ability to recognize people cannot be compared to yours. They must have real abilities, otherwise how could Bago recommend them?"
Li Si frowned and looked at Xiao He, Han Xin and others with burning eyes.
Especially Han Xin, the Eighth Young Master praised him so much that he was even compared to the pillars of the country like Meng Tian and Wang Jian.
He knew that Ying Ziye couldn't act recklessly, and those people must have real skills.
"Ah!"
Ying Ziye was not angry when he heard what Young Master Fusu and others said, he just took it indifferently.
He looked at Young Master Fusu, Zhao Gao, and Young Master Hu Hai, and argued with a smile: "Brother, Mr. Zhao, you don't understand."
"Han Feizi once said - prime ministers must rise from the state headquarters, and fierce generals must be sent to the ranks of soldiers!"
"If Big Brother, Zhao Gao, you are compared with Xiao He, Han Xin and others, you will definitely not be able to defeat them."
"Mencius once said - Shun was raised in the countryside, Fu Shuo was raised in the building, Jiao Ge was raised in the fish and salt, Guan Yiwu was raised in the army, Sun Shu'ao was raised in the sea, Baili Xi was raised in the city."
"These are all ancient saint kings and sages, but they were born in poverty, but they have all accomplished earth-shaking achievements!"
"The ancients did it, and people today can do it too."
Ying Ziye looked at the young master Fusu indifferently and asked: "Brother is familiar with Confucian classics, hasn't he read the works of Mencius?"
"If you haven't seen it, it's really ridiculous. If you have seen it, are you questioning the sages you admire?"
The questions fell heavily on Young Master Fusu's heart, leaving him speechless for a moment.
There is no way to refute it!
Zhao Gao also looked gloomy due to the rebuke and hesitated to speak.
Above the court, each official looked deeply at Xiao He, Han Xin, Fan Kuai and others.
I didn't expect that they could be so praised by Eighth Young Master and speak out in defense.
I originally thought that the Eighth Young Master was trying to arrange manpower, but now seeing how cautious the Eighth Young Master is, it seems that he is really capable.
On the high platform.
Upon hearing this, the First Emperor Ying Zheng issued an order: "Order Han Xin and Fan Kuai to go to the southern border areas together to march and fight."
"Each will be given the position of captain of thousands, repel South Vietnam, attack South Vietnam, and use South Vietnam to test the strength of the two of them!"
"As for Xiao He, he is the first master of Xianyang..."
Xiao He, Fan Kuai, Han Xin and others could not restrain their excitement and kowtowed in thanks.
"Thank you, His Majesty the First Emperor, for your appreciation!"
"Ah!"
The First Emperor Ying Zheng chuckled lightly and said calmly: "It is Ziye who appreciates you and recommends me. You must keep this in mind."
"I will never forget it!"
Xiao He, Han Xin and others shouted respectfully.
The meeting is over.
The Eighteenth Young Master's Mansion.
Young Master Hu Hai returned to the mansion and was walking in front, his face was calm but his eyes were deep.
"Teacher, please send a net to check the detailed information of Xiao He, Han Xin and others."
"Perhaps there is something unknown that has been hidden by Myna."
He gently caught the fallen leaves in the wind, blew a breath, and watched the fallen leaves flutter.
Zhao Gao followed behind, nodded when he heard this, and said respectfully: "No!"
Eighth Young Master's Mansion!
Ying Ziye had just returned to the mansion and took Lu Fei, Lu Su sisters, Jian Jiu, Hou Qing, Ying Gou and others out of the house.
Behind him were several maids and servants, and more than a dozen personal guards were invisibly guarding him.
The son of a rich man will not sit in the hall.
Although he and Hou Qing were highly skilled in martial arts, they still had to show their due respect. This was a reflection of their status.
Many tedious tasks can also be left to them.
"Wow!"
"It's nice there. There are people who perform acrobatics of swallowing fire and spitting fire."
Ying Gou cheered in surprise, pointing to one place with her little finger.
I saw a man holding a torch, opening his mouth and spitting out a stream of blazing flames.
Others swallowed burning coals in their mouths.
boom!
Streams of flames spurted out.
The crowd around them were amazed and cheered.
The princes and nobles who were watching on the side became interested and took out the gold and threw it over.
"It's your reward!"
"Thank you, sir."
The performers work harder.
"This little trick is quite clever."
Ying Gou smiled and praised.
Lu Pheasant looked around and said, "Xianyang City is really prosperous, with rows of high-rise buildings and so many fun and delicious foods."
"Oh oh oh!"
But at this time.
A loud rooster crows.
Looking around, I saw a restaurant.
"It should be a fighting cock!"
Ying Ziye led others up and stepped into the restaurant.
I saw only the hall.
The two majestic roosters raised their heads proudly, and the hair on their necks exploded. They looked ferocious and terrifying. Both sides stared at each other closely, instead of shouting loudly.
"Oh oh oh!"
A black rooster with a little bit of white charged towards the opposite side.
Furious, his wings vibrated, and he glided and took off to avoid.
Opposite was a black rooster with red stripes. Upon seeing this, he immediately jumped high to avoid it, and then pressed down hard on the black and white rooster.
Plop.
The black and white rooster roared ferociously and kept struggling to get away.
However, the red-striped black chicken greeted the black and white rooster with its paws and stepped on it hard.
The black and white rooster was beaten until it screamed in agony.
But he lost.
"Give me money, give me money!"
The red-striped black chicken asked the other person excitedly.
The people around him were sighing, and some people said that they enjoyed watching it.
"Let's go, it's too noisy here."
Ying Ziye waved his hand and smiled lightly.
"Sir, why don't you go to the Yulou to enjoy dancing and music?"
A smile appeared on Jian Jiu's face and he suggested speaking out.
"Lao Jiu, you are so disrespectful!"
Ying Ziye responded calmly.
"hey-hey!"
Jian Jiu laughed innocently.
But his eyes stayed on Tingyu Tower.
Ying Ziye smiled helplessly and then led everyone away.
The majestic attic stands.
It is extremely majestic and yet compact and exquisite.
As soon as I stepped in front of the door, I heard a burst of music and soft singing.
At the door, there were several tall and thick guards in robes, as well as mature and charming women, who greeted the passers-by with sweet smiles.
Seeing Ying Ziye and others wearing gold and silver, they greeted them cheerfully.
As soon as I stepped into the pavilion, a scent of fragrance mixed with various rouges and gouache hit my nostrils.
The sound of the piano is lingering, beautiful and moving.
In the hall, there was a high platform, and several women with beautiful faces wearing light veils stretched their waists and danced gracefully.
Princes from high-ranking families in the four buildings gathered together in twos and threes, drinking and having fun.
"So Tingyu Tower is this kind of place!"
Lu Zhi looked around curiously, looked at Ying Ziye with interest, and said with a smile: "Master, do you often come here to play?"
"In my spare time, I occasionally listen to music."
Ying Ziye saw what was going on in Lu Pheasant's little head. He gently tapped the girl's head with the folding fan in his hand and said, "Don't think too much."
"oh!"
Lu Pheasant's little face became solemn and his eyebrows furrowed.
"Sir, young ladies, please come over here."
When the maid from Tingyulou saw several people arriving, she stepped forward to greet them and found a few seats to sit down.
"Thanks!"
Ying Ziye took out a few pieces of gold and handed them over, then ordered: "Bring some sake."
A few people stayed at a window seat, enjoying the rare quiet time.
The breeze blows slowly outside the window, and the shadows of pines, cypresses and bamboos are swaying.
Drinking sake and watching the beautiful young lady dancing is a feast for the eyes.
The sound of the piano is lingering, and the singing is moving.
"The appearance is independent on the mountain, and the clouds are rong and rong below."
"The sky is dim and the sky is dark, and the east wind is carrying the rain of gods."
"Leave your soul to cultivate and forget to return home. When the years are over, who will be the most beautiful..."
Jiuge, mountain ghost.
Made by Qu Yuan.
Gorgeous words, touching.
But at this moment, slender legs stepped forward, and two beautiful figures blocked Jian Jiu.
"Who is stopping me from enjoying the dance?"
Jian Jiu said dissatisfied and raised his eyes.
But there was some confusion, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
"Eighth Young Master!"
Da Siming and Shao Siming laughed respectfully.
One is charming, the other is cold.
