"What?!"

Hearing this, the First Emperor's body was stunned, like a thunderous blow, his expression was solemn, and a wave of imperial momentum suddenly spread.

"This matter is not trivial, Meng Yi, do you have any evidence?"

The First Emperor questioned if smallpox was really man-made, it was not something to be happy about. People who can even control smallpox dare not imagine who is the divine who has this ability to reach the sky.

Meng Yi shook his head and said, "This is the boy's false speculation, and there is no evidence. ”

"If it is speculation, there must be a reason, tell me what is your basis?" The First Emperor said.

As the emperor of Great Qin, Ying Zheng has a keen insight, otherwise, he would not have destroyed the Six Kingdoms with the power of one family in just ten years and achieved supreme achievements.

Now, Meng Yi's words undoubtedly made him smell some kind of danger. For some reason, what Meng Yi said, he could always trust unconditionally, even if it was his speculation, it was by no means groundless.

Meng Yi didn't directly say his answer, but went to bring a bowl of water and said, "This is the kid's answer." ”

"What does a bowl of water mean? Don't play dumb riddles with me, what is the reason for it!! Ying Zheng asked impatiently, when is it, and is still in the mood to joke.

"Your Majesty doesn't know, these days, I have investigated more than eighty percent of the patients in the city and found one thing in common."

"What do you have in common?"

"All of the first people to get smallpox drank this water."

The more the First Emperor listened, the more confused he felt, the water he was holding in his hand was just an ordinary bowl of water, how could it be strange? And what does smallpox have to do with water?

Besides, the people of Xianyang City drink river water, so what's the difference?

Meng Yi also saw the first emperor's question, and explained: "Are you thinking, everyone drinks water from the same river, how can you judge it as two parts? ”

"Yes, exactly."

"Your Majesty is really high in the temple, and I don't know the suffering of the rivers and lakes." Meng Yi said, "People are divided into three, six, nine and so on, so there are high and low, and drinking water is synthetic, isn't it?" The water you drink is taken from the melt water of the ice and snow on the top of the Kunlun Mountains, which is extremely precious, and the ministers of the court and the central government, or wealthy merchants, although not as precious as Your Majesty, are not as precious as ordinary people. ”

In the feudal era, the class was obvious, people had noble and low, and in ordinary times, the things they did, the laws they did, and the things they ate were all differentiated.

Those who are noble, the clothes they wear on the outside, and the food they eat on the inside are all very different. What ordinary people can enjoy?

"And where does the people get their drinking water?"

"In the middle of the city there was a well, from which most of the people took drink. The boy sent someone to the ancient well to fetch a bucket of water and feed it to the cattle and sheep, does Your Majesty know what the result is? Meng Yi said.

"Are all the cattle and sheep ......?"

"Yes, without exception, all contracted smallpox."

After learning this result, Ying Zheng's mood was not very good, if someone really poisoned the ancient well, then it would be terrible.

But after thinking about it, the First Emperor suddenly said: "No, if it is the water in the ancient well, why is perilla also infected?" ”

The first people in the city to be infected with smallpox were caused by drinking water, and the patients who appeared later were all infected, and coincidentally, Ying Shiso was the first to be infected.

Meng Yi didn't want to say more, but when the First Emperor asked about it, he had to say: "The people of the royal family, drinking water is ice and snow meltwater, and the eldest princess, as a royal family, should not be like this, which is indeed suspicious." ”

"Exactly."

"It stands to reason that this should be the case, but how does Your Majesty know the true life of the eldest princess?"

"What do you mean?" The First Emperor asked rhetorically.

As the eldest princess, Ying Zisu is a royal noble, but her mother is from a poor background and has no maternal support, living in a cold harem, only to swallow her anger, and her children are also victimized.

On the surface, she is a princess and a prince, but her real status is not as good as a beast, let alone enjoying the treatment of the royal family.

Ying Shisu's mother and daughter, in the harem, were oppressed by other concubines, and the treatment they really enjoyed was actually not as good as that of ordinary people.

In the cold harem, the mother and daughter are struggling, they seem glamorous on the surface, but they are cold and desolate on the inside. Therefore, the water that Ying Shiso drinks is the water from the old well in the city.

After Meng Yi finished explaining, the First Emperor, who knew all the truth, was furious when he heard this, and he slapped it on the stone pillar and said, "Damn! They dare to do such bastard things behind my back, and I will never spare them. ”

"The most poisonous thing is women's hearts, and what do they do?"

"Why didn't Zi Su tell me, if I knew that her mother and daughter were living such a desolate life, I wouldn't sit idly by." The First Emperor said.

"Her mother was coerced, how dare she talk nonsense? Besides, the world has been decided, Your Majesty has every opportunity, if Zisu tells him, it will inevitably provoke disputes in the harem, which will only cause chaos to Your Majesty, and may even attract the shame of the people of the world, so I swallowed my anger and gave up. Meng Yi said.

This is not true, as a royal family, you should set an example for the people of the world, a fire in the harem will only smear the emperor's face, and there is no other benefit.

Ying Zheng looked at the bedroom with his eyes, and said a little apologetically: "Zisu, this child has been kind-hearted since he was a child, and he thinks about others everywhere, and over the years, I have been ashamed of their mother and daughter. ”

"Your Majesty doesn't need to blame yourself, now that you know the inside story, you will double the compensation in the future." Meng Yi persuaded from the side, "And the urgent thing at the moment is to find the person who poisoned him, not to mess with himself." ”

"That's right, if someone wants to attack the Empire, I can't sit idly by. But in the vast sea of people, how to find it? ”

Everything at the moment is just Meng Yi's speculation, not to mention who the murderer is, and even clues can't be found.

At this time, seeing that the corners of Meng Yi's mouth rose, revealing a hint of evil and cunning smile, the First Emperor saw it and said, "When is it, you are still laughing?" ”

Meng Yi didn't say anything about the smile, he asked rhetorically: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, in another half a month, will there be something big happening in the empire?" ”

The First Emperor pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered, he looked at Meng Yi, and the two of them said in unison: "The Three Kingdoms will be martial!" ”

"Could it be that the person who poisoned ......?"

"It's not Baiyue, it's the Huns." Meng Yi said, "Now that the 'Three Kingdoms Martial Arts' is imminent, they are afraid of Great Qin, so they make this decision. ”

"If that's the case, why don't you just poison everyone to death, wouldn't it be neat."

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten that the three kingdoms will be martial, and it is a matter between the three kingdoms, and if either side is absent, the game will be terminated, because no three sides can be missing." Meng Yi said eloquently, "Therefore, they did not make a dead move, in order to disrupt the plan of the Qin State and let us go to the competition with our tired bodies." ”

The only way to maximize your chances of winning the game is to keep yourself at the best level, and the enemy is at the lowest level.

At this time, Meng Yi said again: "According to my investigation, something like this happened not long before the competition three years ago. ”

Well?!

The First Emperor thought back to three years ago and seemed to have been the case.

In that competition, the empire returned home with a feather and lost the face of the Great Qin Empire.

Now, with the three-year deadline approaching, they're doing it again.

After listening to Meng Yi's explanation, Ying Zheng suddenly came to his senses, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and said with relief: "Meng Yi, this time you have made another great achievement, no, it is two." ”

First, he found a way to crack smallpox, and then he saw through the enemy's intrigues.

"As a great Qin man, solving problems for the monarch is a boy's book, how dare he take credit." Meng Yi said modestly.

"Good boy, not arrogant or indulgent, good performance."

Seeing him so humble, the First Emperor was also quite satisfied, thinking that if he really had such a smart son-in-law, it would actually be not bad.

Moreover, judging from this time, Meng Yi really loves Ying Zisu sincerely, otherwise, he would not have risked being killed to save her from the execution ground, and then he was willing to risk being infected with smallpox to take care of her who was seriously ill.

All these things are enough to show their sincerity.

Before leaving, Ying Zheng took out a token from his waist and handed it to him, saying: "Those who hold this token do not need to be told by the internal officials, they can go directly to the heavens." And from now on, any major matter that threatens the security of the empire can be directly discussed with me. ”

"Boy, obey!"

Meng Yi took the "heavy" token, he knew that this seemingly ordinary token contained the first emperor's trust in him.

Let's ask the government and the opposition, who can get such trust from the emperor? Even if Li Si, Zhao Gao and others are not allowed to enjoy such treatment.

......

Since Meng Yi found a way to crack the "smallpox", it spread rapidly among the people, and in a short period of time, it set off a wave of waves, and those patients who suffered from smallpox, after the "pox method", most of them recovered as before, and those who were seriously ill also showed signs of recovery.

For a time, the common people were all grateful to Meng Yi, and some people worshiped him as a "god of medicine".

Almost overnight, Meng Yi's title of "Xianyang's No. 1 Loser" was replaced by the "God of Medicine", and his fame instantly became famous and resounded all over the country.

Dark Jungle.

In a hidden cave, a man in a black robe sits in it, and the torches on both sides of the cave are like a fire dragon winding, illuminating the dark cave.

At the end of the cave, I saw a black-robed man sitting in it.

Suddenly, a message came from his subordinates: "Back to the chief, there is news from the front, the smallpox spread in Xianyang has been cracked." ”

"This is impossible, smallpox is incurable, and it will never be cracked."

"You can't be wrong, smallpox was cracked by a teenager."

"Teenager? What is this person's name? ”

"Meng Yi!!"
