After eating the unpalatable dinner and seeing that it was still early, Chen Xu decided to go to see Wang Qian.

Now that he has come to Xianyang, the most familiar is Wang Qian, although he is not familiar with it deeply, but it is almost necessary to have a good relationship with the Great Qin Military God, at least Wang Jian arranged Wang Wu and others to be his own guards, which solved a lot of his troubles.

The original coachman was fired, Yingbu drove in person, Yu Wuya rode a horse and followed inseparably beside him, and more than a dozen guards rode horses to guard the left and right, which was completely the pomp and circumstance of the prince and princess going out.

And what happened in the court today has already spread throughout Xianyang, so when I went out, there were people gathered outside the house who were not less lively, all of whom wanted to come and see Chen Xu, a figure who had been in the limelight in Xianyang for the past two days.

The first emperor paid homage to the prime minister, the Taishi, and the Qinghe Hou, gave the gold seal and purple ribbon, and 600 households, and many incredible rewards almost shocked all those who heard the news.

Don't say that it is Great Qin, even if it is the Shang and Zhou dynasties, there has never been a person in history who has had such a terrifying honor.

Therefore, when Chen Xuche drove out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the people who watched couldn't help but make a sensation, and the screams came and went, among which there were many young girls who couldn't help but cover their chests and cheeks were red, and the signs of Sichun were very obvious.

Such a young boy turned out to be the current Taishi and the Prime Minister of the country?

Although these titles were all resigned by Chen Xu, and now only one of the titles of Qinghe Hou remains, everyone still recognizes the title of the emperor's personal imperial seal in disguise.

Chen Xu sat on the carriage, watching and listening to all directions, with a helpless wry smile on his face.

It seems that you must be low-key when you go out in the future, this movement is too big.

Bumpy all the way to the Tongwu Marquis Mansion.

Sure enough, just like Yu Wuya said, Wang Jian looks a lot older, his body is also a little rickety, he speaks, panting and coughing, compared with the momentum of brushing tigers in Qinghe Town last year, he is already completely like an old man in his last years.

It seems that this god of war of the Great Qin Empire is estimated to not live long!

Chen Xu felt a little sour and desolate in his heart.

"General, why didn't you see Sanniang today?" While drinking tea and chatting, Chen Xu thought of Wang Qingsleeve, who had returned to Xianyang for more than a year, and wondered what happened to the long-legged beauty whose mood was a bit of a cannon battle attribute, and whether he had killed Zhao Zhe.

"You don't know?" Wang Jian stared at the beads in his eyes.

"What do I know?" Chen Xu was a little confused.

"Chen Hou, Sanniang has been named Princess Qingning by His Majesty, and now she has been living in the palace!" Wang Wu, who was standing next to him, explained.

Well, Chen Xu was stunned for a long time before shaking his head and said, "I really don't know about this, I'll visit the palace when I have time!" ”

"It's okay, I heard that she is quite lonely in the palace, and she doesn't talk to the old man when she comes back to visit her relatives on weekdays, if you meet, please ask Qinghehou to help persuade her!"

Wang Qian's mental state did not look good, he looked a little groggy after drinking a cup of tea with Chen Xu, and said with a solemn face after waving his hand to let all the servants and guards around him disperse: "The old man already knows what happened in your house, but the entanglement is quite complicated, and the old man doesn't know the details, but the root cause is still in the robbery of the summer grain tax!" ”

"You said it was Zhao Gao?"

Wang Jian nodded slightly: "Zhao Gao doesn't have any great ability, but he is jealous and charming, and he is a member of the royal family, and he has won the trust of His Majesty. ”

Chen Xu was dumbfounded for a while and said, "General, it's just a few rabbits and weasels, how can he detect me?" ”

"Hmph, this is the effect he wants, you think he is shallow if he does this, if you really think so, you will be fooled!" Wang Jian couldn't help but snort, "Zhao Gao is a very good person, otherwise he would not have made His Majesty value it so much, whether it is the Zhongshu Order or the Zhongche Mansion Order or today's servant, they are all His Majesty's closest positions, although Li Si is the prime minister, but he still has to pass if he wants to enter the palace to see His Majesty on weekdays, but he can go straight into the palace to do things, he is by no means a shallow person, this matter seems to be small, if you are indifferent, he will continue to try, but if you can't help but poke it out and be known by His Majesty, naturally someone will be punished, You'll make a lot of enemies! ”

"Enemy, who else will be involved in this matter?" Chen Xu asked in surprise.

"Your current mansion is the prime minister's mansion of the former prime minister Lü Buwei, which has been vacant for more than ten years, but the last time His Majesty returned from a tour, he ordered the Inner History Mansion and the Craftsman Shaofu to renovate the mansion, and the guards and entourage were arranged by the lieutenant's mansion, and the servants in the palace were the servants and the Shaofu superintendent, and these orders were personally signed by the right minister Feng Quji, the joints are intricate, your current status is special, as long as any unfavorable wind and grass to you fall into the ears of Your Majesty, the ministers and doctors to whom these mansions belong will be implicated, Many people will even fall to the ground, once this happens, you are the target of the entire Great Qin Princes and Princes, you said that you have a lot of opportunities in your chest, and you want to make a tide in the court, but without the support of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military ministers, even if you really have immortal spells, you can't do it......"

Cold sweat trickled down Chen Xu's forehead, and he felt a chill in his back.

"So you must not act rashly in this matter, I will ask Wang San, Wang Wu and others to bring some guards to your mansion tomorrow to secretly investigate, and at the same time, you can also investigate some hidden dangers, you must be more careful on weekdays, Zhao Gao will never personally arrange people to be unfavorable to you, and he does not dare, but he must be careful of his conspiracy, he may continue to make enemies for you!"

"Thank you, General!" Chen Xu was very grateful.

"The old man's body is not as good as day by day, it is estimated that time is running out, and many things are beyond his strength, plus the matter of the sleeve, alas, ......" Wang Jian sighed faintly, and then looked at Chen Xu, "Qinghehou, if the Wang family is in trouble in the future, please help, the old man is grateful!" ”

Chen Xu hurriedly stood up and said, "Why did the old general say this? Who dares to disadvantage the Marquis of Tongwu's Mansion! ”

"The world is unpredictable, who can say it clearly, tomorrow Wu'er Wang Ben will go to Qinghe Houfu to visit, the old man is tired, confess and go to rest first!" Wang Jian stood up.

"Old General, please!" Chen Xu sent Wang Jian away, and then returned home after greeting Wang Ben, the Marquis of Tongwu.

The next morning, Wang Ben really led dozens of servants to visit Qinghe Houfu with several boxes of gold silk and jade, and stayed for a banquet until noon before leaving, and this matter soon spread among the princes and princes.

In the afternoon, the imperial physician Cheng Xu Fu also came to visit, but all he brought with him were various rare medicines such as ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum and some spices for cooking, and it seemed that he also knew that Chen Xu must not be eating well now.

In the blink of an eye, I haven't seen Xu Fu for more than a year, and I am naturally very happy and excited when I see each other, after drinking tea and chatting with each other about Xianyang and Qinghe Town, Chen Xu personally cooks and prepares to cook a delicious meal to entertain Xu Fu, and at the same time to improve his life.

Chen Xu put on an apron and a hat, very much chef's style, two imperial chefs, seven or eight kitchen workers and a group of maids were turned around by his command, constantly running in and out of the house to buy items, but fortunately, there is a lot of money in the house now, the emperor's reward alone has more than 100,000 yuan, so the purchase of food and vegetables is also the best, lotus root, yam, mutton, beef, all kinds of dried vegetables and dried bamboo shoots, mushrooms and fungus and other mountain goods are bought back a lot, after boiling the soup, it is stewed in the living room with a charcoal stove and begins to shabu shabu, And today Yu Wuya and Yingbu caught seven or eight rabbits in the house, and they also peeled and cleaned them and made them into roasted whole rabbits, and the appearance was brushed with tea tree oil and sauces, and the roasted was golden and fragrant.

I was busy for more than an hour, and when I sat down around the hot pot, it was already past the time.

Damn, cooking is so tiring!

opened two bottles of Qinghe wine, four maids helped pour the wine, and the four of them began to simmer mutton and beef around the hot pot, plus dried vegetables and fungus and other vegetables that had been stewed inside, and the steam in the restaurant exuded an extremely tempting fragrance, which could be smelled outside the house.

"Hey, it's so fragrant, what kind of delicious food is this Hou Ye eating?"

"I heard that it is a dish called hot pot, with beef and mutton, as well as dried bamboo shoots and mushrooms, and I heard the helper of Chef Bao say that it was cooked by Hou Ye himself."

"It's so fragrant, I'm too hungry to walk!"

"Me too, my legs are weak!"

Outside the restaurant, several guards stood outside and exchanged words one by one.

"Goo-dong"

When Chen Xu was eating and drinking, he heard a little maid standing beside him couldn't help but swallow a clear saliva.

Chen Xu turned his head to look at the girl who was only fourteen or fifteen years old, smiled and pointed to the rabbit in the big basin and said, "We eat and drink by ourselves, we don't need you to take care of it, take one of the roasted rabbits and share it!" ”

"Slaves don't dare!" The girl pounced in fright and knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Go quickly, go quickly, lest the Hou Ye change his mind later!" Xu Fu stretched out his hand and pulled the little maid up.

"The slave still doesn't dare!" The maid trembled with fright.

"I'm the Imperial Doctor, and I'm good friends with your Hou Ye, I can say yes!" Xu Fu gently took a rabbit and stuffed it into the maid's hand.

"Go ahead, take another one and give it to the guards outside, and get out!" Chen Xu waved his hand.

"Thank you, Master Hou!" The four little maids happily took the two roast rabbits out of the room and shared the food with a group of maids and guards.

"A Hou like you can't find a second one after searching for this Great Qin!" Xu Fu said with emotion while soaking the mutton.

"How's Beppu?" Chen Xu asked with a smile.

"Don't say that Beppu is a marquis, it's an ordinary official's mansion, these maids and slaves will beat when they say they will beat, and they will kill when they say they will kill, how dare they share food with their masters!" Xu Fu shook his head and said.

"The Chinese people all originated from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and there is no distinction between high and low, but unfortunately only the Mo family agrees with this concept now!" Chen Xu also shook his head slightly.

"It's a pity that the Mo family's concept of governing the country is too extreme, coupled with being brave and ruthless, it has almost disappeared under the suppression!" Xu Fu said while eating, and suddenly remembered something, put down his chopsticks and said, "Did Master Hou remember the letter that he wrote to you last year?" ”

Chen Xu nodded: "Naturally remember?" Didn't you say that there was a Mohist priest named Huang Tianqiong who presented a recital to the emperor and said that there were three sacred mountains beyond the East China Sea? ”

"This is the time!" Xu Fu hesitated with a solemn face and said, "Last year, just a few days after I arrived in Xianyang, I was kidnapped by a Mo disciple named Huang Tianqiong and taken to a house in the north of the city. ”

"The old man's surname is Huang?" Chen Xu thought for a moment and asked.

"Yes, that Huang Tianqiong said that the old man is his father, and he is also the current Mo family saw, the purpose of his teaching me medical books is to let me come to Xianyang to see the first emperor after my medical skills are completed, and then present the three sacred mountains and immortal grass outside Shanghai, fortunately I fell into the bandits' nest in Pheasant County, and then was rescued by the Hou Ye, otherwise Fu will definitely be deceived to the emperor, and then he will definitely ship a ship to the sea, it is estimated that at this time it has been controlled by the ink disciples! Their purpose was to take advantage of the opportunity to go to sea to find the elixir of the sacred mountain and escape overseas to avoid the disaster. Xu Fu originally promised Huang Tianqiong not to tell outsiders about it, but he didn't want to hide it from Chen Xu.

Chen Xu paused for a moment, "Do you know what Huang Tianqiong's father's name is?" ”

"Engong, don't guess, it must be called Huang Tingjing, the old man we met in Xiapi last time!" Yu Wuya put down the wine glass and said.

"What Wuya said is right, I inquired afterwards, and the current Mo family's juzi is called Huang Tingjing!" Xu Fu nodded.

I see, it seems that I guessed correctly last time, Huang Shigong is called Huang Tingjing, and he is really the Mo family's juzi!

Chen Xu had almost figured out the origin of the old man at this time.

It should be that the Mo family disappeared and hid the people after being constantly attacked by Qin Shi Huang, and then they were unwilling, while trying to fool Qin Shi Huang to go to sea to find immortal medicine and take the opportunity to leave the mainland, and at the same time taught Zhang Liangtai the art of war, intending to cultivate a master of the art of war who hated Great Qin, so as to overthrow Great Qin in the future.

If this speculation is correct, then some things in history make sense.

As soon as he thought about it, Chen Xu suddenly had more understanding of the Mo family, this organization was very terrifying, whether it was going to sea by boat or overthrowing Great Qin, these two things were successful in the history he knew.

Xu Fu led the sailors and boys and girls to the sea, and finally never returned, according to later speculation, he ran to Japan, which even the Japanese themselves admitted.

In the war to overthrow Daqin, Zhang Liang can be said to have made great contributions, and he also assisted Liu Bang in establishing the Han Dynasty, and finally retired and became a legendary figure in history.

However, after some disturbances by themselves, the two things manipulated by the Mo family were almost yellow.

It may not be a big problem to build a ship and go to sea, but Zhang Liang will definitely not be able to get the art of war, that is to say, the current Daqin has one less super opponent who is proficient in the art of war, and the future direction of things has begun to be confusing.
