Chapter 349: A Night of Secret Talk

Wang Kai's matter, up and down the Qin government, seemed to be a big stone thrown into the calm lake, which suddenly caused huge ripples. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info all the civil and military forces did not discuss, and even Yang Ke talked to Han Yong in private, and the two of them were shocked and stunned, and they were puzzled. Things continued to ferment, and various versions of after-dinner conversations were derived, until months later, when they slowly subsided and finally disappeared.

On this day, Gao Yue was in the harem, accompanied by Ji Yunshu, Yao Chi and Sima Miaoling, sitting around a dinner and sharing a family banquet. Previously, because he listened to Ji Yunshu's advice and pleading, Gao Yue also realized that it was not advisable to kill in anger, so he promptly withdrew his fate, pardoned hundreds of surviving family members of the former Zhao clan nobles, and ordered those who were willing to remarry, or return to their hometowns, or those who became monks, were left to their own devices, and the local governments at all levels strictly prohibited retaliation, and could give appropriate assistance as appropriate, in order to show the country's forgiveness.

All the bereaved families escaped, and finally got the proper arrangement of freedom, all of them were overjoyed, and they were grateful to Ji Yunshu who came out to save him, and they didn't know how to reciprocate. And Yuan Zheng because he was the queen of Zhao State, his identity is special, and he really has nowhere to go now, and he can't live in the palace of King Qin. Fortunately, Ji Yunshu often invited her to come to the palace to get together, and also went to the temple several times to visit in person, and the nuns in the temple knew that she was not idle, and she was polite and friendly on weekdays, so Yuan Zheng's days were also settled down.

Let's say that after Gao Yue finished eating, the three concubines were still chewing slowly. Women eat differently than men quickly, but Gao Yue eats extremely fast tonight. Sima Miaoling is now just pregnant, her appetite is very shallow, and while picking up delicious dishes to eat, she listened to Yao Chi whispering something, and then laughed, leaned over and replied a few words, so the two girls giggled. Sima Miaoling is now familiar with Gao Yue, Ji, Yao, etc., and get along very harmoniously and happily. And with the sowing of hope and the birth of new life, Sima Miaoling has long taken it for granted that this place is his real home. When she dreamed back at midnight, she often deeply sighed that when she was able to be sent to Chang'an, she thought that her fate would be bleak from then on, but she didn't expect that this was really the greatest luck in her life.

Yao Chi is a bit straightforward and sloppy by nature, not very delicate; And Sima Miaoling is still a girl after all, and she can't be so deep and meticulous. Only Ji Yunshu, calm and refreshed, with a heart as careful as hair, secretly observed that although Gao Yue and his family were smiling from the bottom of their hearts when they were dining together, there was always some absent-mindedness in his expression, as if he had something on his mind.

"The King. Now that the country has eliminated war outside the country, there is no disaster and famine inside, so it is safe for a while. The king should also relax more, don't worry too much, think about those unnecessary troubles, or take care of your body. ”

Gao Yue looked back at Ji Yunshu and nodded, laughing. No matter when, Ji Yunshu is unhurried, gentle and calm, giving people the warmth of spring breeze and rain, as if even if there is great anxiety and worry, under her care and moistening, it can be slowly melted.

Yao Chi hurriedly took over the conversation, and made a joke without taboos and without heart, which caused everyone to laugh, which made the atmosphere more joyful and warm. After being happy for a while, Gao Yue casually said that there was still business, so that the three girls could sleep peacefully at night without waiting. After saying that, he left, Yao Chi and Miaoling hurriedly agreed, but Ji Yunshu looked at Gao Yue's back thoughtfully. Her instincts told her that Gao Yue seemed to be suppressing something, but it would eventually explode violently.

The night covered the sky, black velvet thick, and everything was silent. In the small study room in the side hall of King Qin's mansion, a candle flame like a bean burned lonely and weakly. Gao Yue sat silently behind the desk, his eyes closed, his face indistinguishable, as if he had turned into a stone sculpture. It's just that under the occasional beating firelight, his face is reflected, and the outline looks very cold and hard.

I don't know how long it took, and Zhou Panlong's low voice suddenly came from outside the door: "...... King! People are coming. ”

Gao Yue suddenly opened his eyes, and the tiger's eyes flickered in the darkness. He snorted and said coldly, "Let him in." ”

Suddenly, a figure quickly flashed in, walked to the desk, immediately prostrated on the ground and kowtowed, and said respectfully: "Weichen greets the king, the king is a thousand years old!" ”

Zhou Panlong quickly stepped forward and lit a large candle, and the room was much brighter, making the small space finally more angry.

It seemed that it was unintentional but it was intentional, after Zhou Panlong lit the candle, he no longer went out, pressed the hilt of the sword with his hand, and stood beside Gao Yue. Gao Yue suddenly didn't realize it, so he asked the man to stand up and speak, and the man looked up and showed his true face, it turned out to be Li Songnian, the internal government detective!

"When you come, will anyone be watching?"

Gao Yue's voice was not angry or happy, plain as water, but it made people a little scared for no reason. Li Songnian bowed and said, "Return to the king." Absolutely not, Wei Chen walked very vigilantly, to ensure that there were no mistakes. And although he was already suspicious, he hadn't noticed Weichen yet. ”

"Good. You have always been capable and skilled, and Lone has long understood it deeply. But what Lone needs more is your loyalty, and I hope you will not let Lone down. ”

Li Songnian immediately fell to his knees again, kowtowed heavily, and said: "Weichen's loyalty to the king can be learned from heaven and earth!" If there is half a heart of rebellion and disobedience, the descendants will be cut off in the future, and there will never be an heir! ”

This is already a first-class renew vow. Gao Yue said slowly: "The so-called cocoon is a problem for self-binding and raising tigers, and the ancients are honest and do not deceive me. Lone is not afraid of any open gun, but he is worried about the unguarded dark arrow. The situation is such that Lone has to be cautious. You get up, what is the result, say Yu Guzhi. ”

Li Songnian said yes, then stood up, took out a thick booklet from his arms, and presented it with both hands: "Since the king's secret order, Weichen has avoided people's eyes and ears, and it has lasted a long time. The specific hidden information, piles and piles, Weichen has been recorded here, please read it to the king. ”

Zhou Panlong walked over, took the booklet, carefully put it under his nose and sniffed it carefully, and concluded that the booklet was not soaked in poison without any smell, so he turned around and presented it to Gao Yue.

Gao Yue approached the light and began to look carefully page by page, his brows furrowed tightly, and his face became more and more gloomy and terrifying, but he finally endured it and did not attack on the spot. Li Songnian lowered his head and stood with bated breath, Gao Yue occasionally asked, and he answered according to the truth, and sometimes the two discussed something in a low voice for a long time. The candles burned less and less, but the light in the room became brighter and brighter, and the sky finally lit up again before I knew it.

The Inner Government Office in the west of Chang'an City is newly built, and the corridors of the palace are all Xiao walls and powder walls, and the momentum is extraordinary. This Qin State's internal government headquarters covers a wide area, which is the square outside the main entrance of the hall, which can accommodate 100 people, wide and bright.

In the main hall, Duochai and Qi Fuyan sat next to each other, chatting casually. The two of them are the deputy envoys of the internal government, so how many people are frightened, but in fact, they can only accomplish big things by going to the front line in person to fight in front of the front. For a long time, Duochai was stationed in Saibei, but Qi Fuyan was active in the Central Plains and Hebei, not in the headquarters for remote control. This time, the two of them returned to Beijing to report on their work, stayed for a few days, and then had to resign to Feng Liang.

The two have been close comrades-in-arms for many years, from pawns to magnates, and have supported each other along the way. But in the past two years, Duochai and Qi Fuyan always feel that there seems to be some estrangement, and when they meet, some are no longer endless words and endless wine, but nodding and greeting as if they are going through the motions, which is the words of inviting guests to dinner, and most of them are kind words, and both parties do not take it seriously.

But this estrangement is not actually caused by the fact that they rarely see each other in two places. Duochai believes that Qi Fuyan has deviated from the oath he made when he entered the internal government, and his daily focus is no longer in the hidden front, dedicated to the righteousness of the enemy and the country and the king, but more and more enthusiastic about the ups and downs of officialdom and intrigues, and more and more chasing power.

In fact, Duochai also knows that Qi Fuyan is just the appearance, and the real internal cause is because the leader of the internal government has led the way. Regarding Feng Liang's current changes, Duochai has hinted several times in private, and he has also turned his heartfelt words into a long poem, placing it on Qi Fuyan and Feng Liang, hoping that through his own hard work, his best friend will wake up and change. But Qi Fuyan also replied at the beginning, vaguely saying that he was also flattered and couldn't help himself, and later he may have felt guilty, or he may have been bored at all, and Qi Fuyan never replied. As for Feng Liang, he directly reprimanded Duochai for offending.

Today, the two have a rare reunion, and they haven't seen each other for half a year. Although he tried his best to pretend to be very casual, Duochai sensitively noticed that the awkward and unfamiliar atmosphere had been lingering, and the intimacy of the past seemed to be impossible to get back, which made him feel stunned and even a little sad.

Just as he was talking, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and when he looked back, it was the commander who made Feng Liang sway in unhurriedly. Duochai and Qi Fuyan stood up and bowed.
