Xianyang Palace, Zichen Palace.

Qin Shi Huang sat on a big chair in the center, and on both sides sat Li Si, Feng Quji, Meng Yi and Meng Tian, four important ministers that he relied on the most.

When Chen Xu followed the palace people in, the five people didn't know what they were chatting about, but it seemed that the atmosphere was relatively relaxed, and after hearing the palace people's report, the five pairs of eyes fell on him almost at the same time, and the gaze full of various emotions made Chen Xu couldn't help but be careful and his liver shook a few times.

There are all the big men of Daqin sitting in this room right now, if you throw a grenade into it......

Chen Xu's face trembled, and he shook his head vigorously to drive out this unbelievable thought.

He wondered why he had suddenly come up with such a bizarre idea that he had never had before.

"Aiqing, please take a seat...... Serve tea to the young master! Qin Shi Huang stood up with a smile on his face to meet the order.

And if he knew what Chen Xu thought, he would probably throw the teacup in his hand to the ground with a thud, and then five hundred knife and axe hands poured out on both sides to chop Chen Xu into meat sauce.

Chen Xu hurriedly bowed and thanked the emperor, and then saluted the four bigwigs next to each other.

Although you are fighting to the death with Li Si, this etiquette is still indispensable in front of the emperor.

"I don't know what Your Majesty has to call your ministers into the palace?" Chen Xu sat down before asking.

This is not a court, just a small discussion meeting of the emperor, so he is not particularly particular about the etiquette of the monarch and ministers, and Chen Xu is also very casual, and the emperor is also used to his way of behaving, so he smiled and said without embarrassment: "Fang Cai I am discussing with the two prime ministers, the imperial doctor and General Meng about the arrangement of sending envoys to the Yueshi, speaking of the last time Aiqing interrogated the Yan family, so I am very curious, and specially summoned Aiqing to discuss it, maybe I can get some inspiration!" ”

Chen Xu then understood, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is curious, and the minister will try to solve His Majesty's doubts!" ”

"I asked the officials of the Pawn Bureau, Aiqing has never been in contact with the Yan family, and has never seen Touman Shan Yu, let alone heard that Aiqing has dealings with any Huns, why Aiqing is so clear about Touman's family affairs, Touman has an eldest son named Mao Dun, almost no one in Daqin knows about it, and even the Manchu Dynasty civil and military ministers even include me don't know anything......"

Chen Xu couldn't help but glance at Meng Tian, but Meng Tian sat with a serious face and didn't see it.

"The minister is naturally calculated!" Chen Xu replied indifferently.

"Well, that's the only way it makes sense!" Qin Shi Huang didn't doubt it, and nodded slightly.

"The adultery between Mao Dun and the Yan clan is also estimated by the Marquis of Qinghe!" Meng Yi also asked with his beard.

"That's not it, Mao Dun's adultery with the Yan clan is guessed by the minister!" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"Guess! How to guess? The Marquis of Qinghe and the Morton of the Yan family have never met, so why can they see the adultery at a glance? The Emperor asked curiously.

Look, all the men in the world are very virtuous, and they all seem to be particularly interested in this kind of messy gossip news, and the first emperor of the ages is also inexorable, last time Meng Tian asked with great interest, but Chen Xu didn't answer, but now that the emperor asks, he naturally can't prevaricate the past.

"Your Majesty, although it seems unbelievable to speculate on this kind of thing, in fact, the internal cause is not complicated, and it can be roughly deduced through two things, not to mention that the minister was not completely sure at that time, he just wanted to test the Yan clan through this sentence, and he didn't come first to let the minister guess ......"

"How did Aiqing guess?" The emperor couldn't help the curiosity in his heart even more.

"First, this Yan is not Mao Dun's biological mother, it can be seen from the age, Tou Man is over forty years old, as the king of the Huns, marrying a wife and having children should be relatively early, Mao Dun, as the eldest son, should be at least nearly twenty years old now, but the Yan family is only twenty-three or four years old now......"

"This is reasonable, General Meng has already entered the palace last time to tell the matter of interrogating the Yan clan, and Mao Dun is from the Da Yan clan of Touman!" Qin Shi Huang nodded.

"Since Mao Dun is not from the Yan clan, and the minister deduced that Mao Dun is the eldest son of Tou Man, and these barbarian tribes like the Xiongnu still use the succession marriage system, if Tou Man dies, many concubines in Tou Man's harem, including the Yan family, will become Mao Dun's women, this is still inherited from the clan marriage method of the Xia Shang period, the incest between brothers and sisters, fathers, brothers, wives and daughters is numerous, and the etiquette of the Zhou Dynasty inherited by my Great Qin is completely different, so the Xiongnu royal family must be chaotic, and there are many concubines in Touman, And the Yan family used to be just a concubine, young and beautiful, and Mao Dun is also young and brave, in this chaotic situation, Mao Dun took advantage of the head man to force the Yan family is also reasonable, and Mao Dun, as the crown prince, will inevitably inherit the throne in the future, the Yan family may also be half pushed and half won't resist too much, anyway, in the future, they will become Mao Dun's women, it's just a matter of time, and if you hook up with the prince early, you may be able to get better treatment in the future......"

"Well, yes, Aiqing's speculation is really very reasonable, Mao Dun is young and powerful, and the Yan family is beautiful and lonely, the two are indeed likely to hook up and commit adultery!" The Emperor nodded repeatedly.

"Actually, the first minister is not particularly sure, but the second is the minister's more confident guess!" Chen Xu took a sip of hot tea and continued.

"Qinghe Hou talk quickly, what about the second one?" At this time, even Feng Quji, who was old and serious, couldn't help but urge.

"Haha, why is Feng Xiang so excited about the adultery of the Huns, could it be that he also fell in love with the beautiful Yan family!" Chen Xu put down the teacup and quipped.

"Qinghe Hou Mo wants to divert the topic, the old man is now dying of old age, he has long been dislike the bed, how can he covet the Yan family, the old man hates these Huns and Donghu barbarians the most, when he was in Zhao State, he was harassed by the Huns!" Feng Qu shook his head with a smile.

"Eh~, Feng Xiang's old man should be strong, how can he say that he is old!" The Emperor shook his head in disagreement.

Feng Quji didn't answer the emperor's topic, but picked up the teacup and slowly took a sip and said with an indifferent smile: "There are six people in Zichen Hall at the moment, only Qinghe Hou is the youngest and energetic, and the old man is half in the ground. ”

Chen Xu is also too lazy to talk about these men and women with a group of bad old men and a few middle-aged uncles, as the saying goes, three men don't talk about it, today's sun does not set in the west, continue to pull, it is estimated that the emperor can't help but go to prostitution together, and the leader of the prostitute must be the old man Meng Yi.

"Mao Dun as the eldest son and the crown prince, this has nothing to do with the Yan family, from her identity, the first son of the head man as the prince should be the result she wants to see the most, so from the common reason, she must hope that Mao Dun dies as soon as possible, and Mao Dun is the prince of the Huns, I Daqin will inevitably be killed to prevent future troubles, but the Yan family has not revealed Mao Dun's whereabouts after several interrogations, this is the biggest suspicion, plus my first speculation before, Then the biggest possibility is that the Yan family and Mao Dun had an affair and even died down, so that she would flatly deny Mao Dun's whereabouts and desperately conceal it, in order to protect Mao Dun's life, according to which the minister said that she and Mao Dun had adultery, but the minister did not expect that Tou Man, the young son, was still Mao Dun's species, which further confirmed the minister's speculation, in fact, this matter is not magical, but through the attitude of the Yan family to think about the clues, General Meng's interrogation was fruitless, but he did not pay attention to the details......"

Chen Xu analyzed the second one, and several bigwigs in the Zichen Hall looked at Chen Xu together, their eyes full of different emotions.

After a long time, Feng Qujian nodded: "Qinghe Hou is thoughtful and thoughtful, the inferences are rigorous, and the truth is indeed not complicated, but it only requires extremely keen observation of words and feelings, and the old man admires it!" ”

"Qinghe Hou District solves a certain doubt in a few words, and convinces a certain heart!" Meng Tian finally figured out Chen Xu's demonic interrogation process at that time.

"Aiqing is indeed thoughtful, and the reasoning is also strict and orderly, it is indeed convincing, today I specially invite Aiqing into the palace, one is to solve the confusion of the Yan clan for me and a few Aiqing, and at the same time, I also want to listen to Aiqing's suggestion to see how to arrange the envoy to the Yue clan, so as to probe the internal situation of the Yue clan!" Qin Shi Huang was the last to speak.

"Marquis Qinghe, I have been discussing with Your Majesty for a long time, and there is some controversy about the matter of envoying the Yue Clan, so the old man proposes to invite Marquis Qinghe to come and discuss the strategy together!" Feng Quji's face became slightly serious.

"I wonder why Your Majesty and you are arguing?" Chen Xu asked the emperor.

"I Qin was the princes of the Great Zhou Dynasty before, although it started in the border of Xirong, and the Qiangrong lived and fought for hundreds of years, but I spoke the language of the Central Plains, worshiped the gods of the Central Plains, and naturally took the Central Plains as the orthodox, and the rest of the Hun Hu and Qiang Rong were not subject to the kings of the Central Plains, and they did not understand each other's words, so there has never been a etiquette between the princes of the kingdom, and there has never been a correspondence between the envoys. However, there are still huge differences in how to select envoys and how to communicate with the Yue royal court, Li Xiang proposed to send a large army to escort the envoys to the Yue Clan, and persecute the Yue Clan with coercion, Feng Xiang also agreed with this reason, but General Meng thought that the Western Regions military camp had not yet been prepared, and the army had not yet moved in place, if the army was sent to the Yue Clan, it would only arouse the vigilance of the Yue Clan, and begin to assemble a large army on the border to prevent the surprise attack of our Great Qin. My Great Qin soldiers may suffer heavy casualties, so I'd like to hear Aiqing's advice and see if I can get some new inspiration! Qin Shi Huang simply explained the process of discussing with Li Simengyi and other bigwigs.
