In the early morning of the next day, Ying Zheng got up in the morning and continued to practice martial arts with Zhang Han and Meng Tian. Because he was too tired yesterday, Yingzheng planned to stay in Yongcheng for half a day today, and returned to Xianyang City after lunch at noon.

After breakfast, Ying Zheng went back to the room to change his clothes, smelled the pot of flowers left by Mi Fang'er, this pot of flowers was placed in the room last night, Meng Tian felt that he slept very well with the fragrance of this flower, and he felt very energetic when he got up this morning, but no one could still recognize the name of this flower. Ying Zheng lowered his head and took a deep breath on the blooming flowers, but at the moment of inhaling the fragrance of the flowers, Ying Zheng suddenly felt that his mind was blank, and that feeling was very comfortable, but when he came back to his senses, he didn't remember what that feeling was. Ying Zheng shook his head, went out of the room, found Meng Tian and the others and prepared to go out.

When I got to the door, there was a man blocking the way. The man was wearing a hat, and he couldn't see what he looked like when he looked down. Zhang Han and Meng Tian stepped forward and blocked Ying Zheng behind them, in case this person wanted to assassinate Ying Zheng.

"The grass people pay homage to the king. The man in the way spoke, but he kept his head down, so that everyone could not see his face.

Ying Zheng looked at this person behind Zhang Han and Meng Tian and said, "Do you recognize the widow?"

The man replied, "When I return to the king, the grass people saw the king at the banquet yesterday, and when the king came back last night, the grass people followed the king's chariot and found the king's dwelling. ”

Hearing this person say that he had followed Ying Zheng's chariot last night, Zhang Han and Meng Tian moved to kill, and the sword in their hands was already unsheathed, so they waited for Ying Zheng's order to kill this person on the spot. However, this person didn't seem to be scared at all when he saw Meng Tian and Zhang Han draw their swords, and was indifferent to the performance of the two.

Ying Zheng told Zhang Han and Meng Tian not to be nervous. Then he looked at this person and said, "Tell the widow your identity, otherwise based on what you just said, you should be sentenced to death in public under the Great Qin Law, do you know?"

The person who blocked it said: "Since the grass people told the truth to the king, they are naturally not afraid that the king will kill the grass people, and besides, it is useless for the king to kill the grass people." The grass people came to visit the king today because they had something to tell the king. ”

"Oh, what do you need to know about the widow?" Ying Zheng was intrigued, wondering why this man had come here to see him at the risk of cutting off his head.

The person who came bent down and bowed, and said: "This matter is related to the safety of the king, there are many people here, and it is not a place to speak. ”

Ying Zheng said: "Okay, if you are just flattering the widow, then the widow will not only have your head, but also your family. Let's go back first and see what big things he has to repay the widow. ”

Ying Zheng took Meng Tian Zhang Han and the people who blocked the road back to the post house, and the owner of the post house had already been driven back to his hometown by Meng Tian, and asked him to wait for his people to leave before coming back to continue to open his shop.

When he arrived at the house, Ying Zheng sat down and looked at the roadblock standing in front of him, and said, "Now that you are in the room, you can take off the hat on your head, and let the widow see your true face." ”

The man took off the hat from his head, and it was a white-faced, beardless man, not very strong, and he looked to be about thirty years old. Seeing the true face of this person, Meng Tian, Zhang Han and Meng Yi glanced at each other, and Meng Yi said: "I saw this person at the banquet last night, he came with the celebrities of Yongcheng, because he doesn't drink, so I remember it very clearly, you should be called Wei Yi, right?"

This person named Wei Yi said to Meng Yi: "Master Meng really has a good memory. And it's not that I don't drink alcohol, but I don't want to drink with people who don't have the same way. ”

Ying Zheng saw that this person was faintly arrogant when he spoke, and his expression was a little displeased, and he said, "What do you have to say about the widow when you come to find the widow, and you have to say it in the room?"

Wei Yu bent down to Ying Zheng and said, "Don't be angry first, listen to the future slowly." All this is because last night I saw someone bring the king a pot of flowers, and the king also brought the flower into the chariot and brought it back. It just so happened that in the early years of the next year, I had traveled among the princes of the world, and I had seen this flower in one place, and I never thought that I would see this kind of thing again in this place yesterday. ”

Ying Zheng heard Wei Yu say that he knew this flower, and hurriedly asked, "Do you recognize this flower? What is this flower called?"

Wei Yu said: "I just think that the pot of flowers that the king brought back last night is somewhat similar to the one I saw before Ixia, so I have to ask the king to bring out the pot of flowers, so that I can take a good look at it and then tell the king." I wonder if the king can bring down the pot of flowers and let me take a good look at it. ”

Ying Zheng asked one of the guards to go to his room and bring down the flower pot for Wei Yu to look at carefully. The guards brought the flower pot down and placed it in front of Wei Yu. Ying Zheng said: "This is the pot of flowers, you see if it is the kind of flower you have seen before." ”

Wei Yu looked at the leaves on the flower branch, then closed his eyes and put his nose close to the flower to inhale the fragrance, then opened his eyes, bent down to Ying Zheng and said: "Your Majesty, this pot of flowers is indeed the pot of flowers that you saw during your travels, because the fragrance of this flower is very special, so you can conclude that this pot of flowers is exactly the same as the pot of flowers you saw before you, but what is even more strange is how this flower appeared in this place." ”

Meng Tian looked at Wei Yu and said, "Sir, where should this flower appear?"

Wei Yi looked at Meng Tian, treated him with his hands, and said, "This is General Meng, the elder brother of Lord Meng." General Meng asked right, this kind of thing should have been extinct, when I saw this kind of flower in Xia, the locals said that this flower was the only flower left in the local area, and the rest of its kind were burned clean. ”

"Oh, what's going on? Come, please sit down and speak. Ying Zheng asked curiously.

After Wei Yi sat down, he said: "This flower is called poppy, it looks very beautiful, and its flowers have a special fragrance, but smelling too much of this fragrance may cause people to hallucinate, and smelling this fragrance for a long time may even cause people to fall into a coma. The locals told me that the fruit of this flower can cure pain, but it is also addictive, and there is a state of almost madness about this feeling, and over time the body will be pulled across and eventually die on it. ”

Then Wei Yu looked at Ying Zheng: "I don't know who gave this flower to the king, but since it was known to the king, the minister told the king about the origin of this flower, hoping that the king would not be harmed by the villain." ”
