Meng Yi handed over a notebook, which was written about the conversation between Qin Qing and Meng Yi before entering the tomb.

Of course, the content cannot be described in too much detail, but it is enough to express Qin Qing's thoughts clearly. Originally, Qin Qing was not prepared to report the matter of ascending to the sky to Ying Zheng so early. On the one hand, it was out of the idea of the same lineage, and on the other hand, because there was no evidence to prove whether Lu Zigao deliberately broke the feng shui of Kuaili Mountain Mausoleum, he only asked Meng Yi to look for evidence in the dark.

However, Qin Qing died!

Meng Yi originally disliked Lu Zigao and others, especially Lu Zigaoshen's disease-free master and apprentice pretending to be ghosts, which made the First Emperor alienate the courtiers and made Meng Yi hate it even more. The two masters and apprentices, relying on the first emperor's favor and trust in the two of them, tossed Xianyang and jumped the chickens and dogs.

Meng Yi has been looking for an opportunity to clean up Lu Zigao's master and apprentice, and now that Qin Qing is dead, in Meng Yi's opinion, it is a good opportunity.

In the imperial study of Xianyang Palace, candlelight flickered.

Ying Zheng's face was gloomy, and after reading the twists and turns presented by Meng Yi, his eyes flashed with terrifying murderous intent.

"Meng Yi, what you played is indeed true?"

Meng Yi knelt in front of the bookcase and said in a deep voice: "The minister dares to guarantee with his life, and what he has done is true." After the Qing elder entered the Lishan Mausoleum for the first time, he had a problem. It's just that there was no evidence at that time, so I didn't report it to Your Majesty...... I had to talk to the minister in private, and asked Weichen to investigate the matter. But Chen didn't expect that Qing Lao would lose his life because of this incident.

Your Majesty, Qing Lao died of illness, but was really killed by Lu Zigao and others! ”

Meng Yi didn't tell all the words of Qin Qing at that time......

That day, Qin Qing was at the place of farewell. He said very seriously: "Your Majesty now listens to Fang Shi. Pro-villain and far from the virtuous. For Lao Qin. No benefit. Before. Your Majesty is diligent day and night. Whenever there is a big event. Anytime. The courtiers were allowed to meet and counsel.

And now. After sunset. The palace gate is locked.

Even the Empress did not know where Her Majesty was resting. And so on. I'm afraid that it will make His Majesty more alienated from his courtiers. Cause a catastrophe. ”

In Meng Yi's opinion. Although Qin Qingdi's words make sense. But it is inevitably suspicious of alarmism.

If you say it all at once. I'm afraid that His Majesty will not be able to fully accept it. It's better to persuade slowly. Slowly change your Majesty's mind.

Ying Zheng couldn't help but clench his fists and slammed it on the bookcase.

"Shandong thieves deceive me too much. The deception is too great...... "In the eagle-like eyes, there was a strong murderous intent in it, Ying Zheng closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, "Zhao Gao, you immediately lead the Zhongche Fuwei out of the palace, and immediately arrest Lu Zigao and Shen Wuxian...... Anyone who has anything to do with the two of them, regardless of the size of their official position, will be arrested together, and the two of them will be completely eradicated from their comrades in Xianyang, you should know how to act! ”

Zhao Gao listened. Promised to go.

Only Ying Zheng and Meng Yi were left in the study. "Shangqing go back. I'm tired! ”

Ying Zheng sighed quietly, stood up and said.

"Minister, obey!"

Meng Yi responded, but did not leave immediately. He hesitated for a moment and asked softly: "Your Majesty, but I don't know the ...... of the Bashu Qin family."

Ying Zheng frowned slightly. He said expressionlessly: "Meng Yi, Bashu's affairs have nothing to do with you, don't meddle in this matter again." Mother and I are like mother and son. Now it's for the great cause of me and Lao Qin...... Don't worry, no matter what, I won't embarrass the Qin family. ”

Although he didn't say anything substantial, Meng Yi still heard the clues in his words.

It seems that His Majesty has made up his mind to make a move against Bashu...... That's fine. Bashu is His Majesty's Bashu. If you can't always control the words, it's definitely not a good thing for Lao Qin. Qing Lao is gone. I'm afraid that His Majesty will not hand over Bashu to others with confidence. But this is okay, although the Qin family has lost control of Bashu, it is presumably that His Majesty will definitely compensate from other aspects.

It's better than one day, Your Majesty will use your iron wrist to take back control of Bashu.

Thinking of this, Meng Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that the First Emperor was about to leave, he suddenly thought of another thing, and hurriedly called the First Emperor, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Weichen still has something to report." ”

Ying Zheng had already walked to the door, and listening to Meng Yi's words, he couldn't help but stop again. "What's the matter with Shangqing?"

"This time, Qing Lao came to Xianyang and brought a gift, saying that he wanted to present it to His Majesty. Originally, Elder Qing planned to personally present it to His Majesty after dealing with the affairs of the Lishan Mausoleum, but now, he ...... That gift is now in Weichen's mansion, I wonder if Your Majesty is interested? ”

When Ying Zheng heard this, he felt even more miserable in his heart.

In previous years, every time Qin Qing came to Xianyang, he would bring some Bashu specialties as gifts. It's not a valuable and rare thing, but in Ying Zheng's heart, this small gift is the emotional bond between him and Qin Qing.

In the future, I am afraid that I will never be able to receive such a gift again......

"Bring it in!"

Ying Zheng sighed, "I'll wait here, Shangqing will go and get the gift from my mother." ”

Meng Yi's face couldn't help but have a faint smile.

The news of Qin Qing's death finally reached Jiangzhou!

With Qin Qing's influence in Bashu, once the news spread, the sensation caused can be imagined. In just one day, the earth of Bashu mourned and shook the sky. Those who are attached to the Qin family, as well as the Ba people who have been cared for by Qin Qing for many years, are all very sad.

However, while grieving, there is also a trace of trepidation.

When Qin Qing was alive, the Ba people could live according to their own way under Qin Qing's protection; Now that Qin Qing is gone, can they still live as carefree as before?

"I heard that Qing Lao has a plan for a long time and asked Miss Man to take over the Qin family."

"Miss Man...... Isn't it younger? Besides, Miss Man will have to marry sooner or later...... I heard that Qing Lao has already found a husband for Miss Man, once he gets married one day, how can he take care of us like Qing Lao? In my opinion, the second master is more suitable. ”

The Ba people are good at setting up a dragon gate array, and when they get together, they will inevitably have a discussion at the meeting.

"Hello second master!" The middle-aged drinker twisted his black beard. Shaking his head, he said: "I heard that over the years, the Qing elder has rarely come forward, and it is the second master who has come to take care of the housework, so that the Qin family can maintain today's situation." Besides, the second master is bold by nature and has the style of Meng Weijun. He also treats our Ba people very well, if he presides over the Qin family, he will definitely be able to make the Ba people live a better life. ”

Words like that, in a short period of time. Spread the ......

Qin Man was also very frightened!

Grandma has always been her backbone.

Although he also knows that birth, old age, sickness and death are hurdles that everyone has to go through, Qin Man hopes that his grandmother can live a long life.

Grandma is gone...... What should I do?

Qin Man sat alone in the boudoir. Looking out the window at the fluttering snowflakes falling on the ground, my mind went blank. Eyes, red and swollen.

The whole person seems to have lost his soul, and he doesn't know what to do.

The news of Qin Qingdi's death came to Jiangzhou two days ago, and two days later, it will be the day to worship the ancestors. In the past two days, Qin Man could clearly feel the changes within the Qin family. The second uncle, Qin Tong, returned to Jiangzhou as early as ten days ago, and visited the clan elders all day long, and he was very busy.

At that time, Qin Man didn't think it was weird!

But now think about it. Qin Man had to be suspicious. Qin Tong did his hands and feet inside.

However, Qin Man knew that his grandmother's death could not have anything to do with Qin Tong. But...... Linked to Qin Tong's strangeness these days, Qin Man couldn't help but be suspicious. Could it be that the second uncle already knew about his grandmother's death? But why is he secret?

"Miss. Miss! ”

The voice of the maid Xiaojin made Qin Man suddenly sober up.

She covered her mouth and looked up, "Xiaojin, is the family still calm today?" ”

Xiao Jin is sixteen years old, adopted by Qin Qing since he was a child, and grew up with Qin Man. She is a master and servant, but she is actually a sister. He is also very delicate, and he listened to Qin Man's inquiry. The little maid pouted. Showing a touch of displeasure, he said softly: "Afternoon." The third master is back! ”

"The third uncle is back? Why didn't anyone notify me? ”

Xiao Jin said angrily: "Miss, haven't you seen it yet?" Since the news of the old ancestor spread, the people in the family have been busy walking around the second master. But they don't want to think about it, miss, you are the heir designated by the ancestors...... The third master came over in the afternoon and went directly to the second master. If it weren't for Bawen passing by just now, I'm afraid that the young lady still wouldn't know. ”

Through the window, Qin Man looked out of the building.

The Qin family's grange is very large, and each family has its own residence.

Now, my garden is deserted...... In addition to the cronies arranged by his grandmother, there were only 250 Lou Fu cavalry soldiers left by Liu Kan. It seems that the second uncle really knew the news of his grandmother a long time ago, but he kept holding it back.

Originally, Qin Man was just suspicious, but now he ...... Qin Man was convinced.

Even the third uncle also stood on the side of the second uncle!

I'm afraid that the elders of all the clans have already become the second uncle's people...... The fourth uncle, Qin Jian, is a county magistrate in Chengdu, and it is estimated that he is on his way. But even if he comes, what's the use? The fourth uncle, Qin Jiandi, has a gentle temperament, does not like fighting, and is a peaceful person who meets with him.

I'm afraid he doesn't want to get involved in this.

Qin Man's mood was a little heavy......

"Xiaojin, the person sent to Jiangyang should have arrived."

Xiao Jin crossed his fingers and counted the time, "It should have arrived." But Miss, even if Duwei Liu gets the news, I'm afraid there is nothing he can do. ”

Is there a way, Qin Man doesn't care.

She only hopes that Liu Kan can rush back...... It doesn't matter if you can help her or not, but when she is in pain, when she is tired, she can have a shoulder to lean on.

It's already dark!

In the distance, the courtyard of Qin Tong was still brightly lit and full of people.

Qin Man stood alone on the boudoir, biting his lip, quietly looking at the hustle and bustle in the distance, with a trace of bitterness in his heart.

The second uncle must be proud of the spring breeze now.

"Miss, there are people outside the courtyard asking to see you!"

Xiao Jin climbed up to the attic again and whispered. She knew very well that the young lady was bored at the moment, and she didn't dare to make too loud noise.

Qin Man came back to his senses and turned his head to look at Xiao Jin, "Who?" ”

"It's the second master's side, I've seen him...... It seems to be called Tang Li. ”

Could it be that the second uncle sent him to be a lobbyist?

Qin Man frowned, and said coldly: "I don't see!" ”

"But, the man has already entered the courtyard and is waiting outside the building."

Qin Man suddenly said angrily: "Lin, what's the matter with them? Didn't I say that I didn't want to see anyone, so why let him in? ”

At the same time, there was a trace of uneasiness in my heart.

Ah Kan said that these Loufu cavalry were given to him by General Meng Tian, why did he let people in without permission? Could it be that Lin them ......

Xiaojin cried with a sad face, "I don't know, it seems that that person came in after showing Lin and them something." ”

"Oh?"

Qin Man thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Since that's the case, let him come up!" ”

Xiao Jin agreed and turned to come down. After a while, I saw her walking upstairs with a young man who looked like he was twenty-five or sixteen years old. The young man looked very delicate, and there was a heroic air between his eyebrows. Dressed in a green shirt, with a short beard under the chin, he exudes a solemn spirit in his gestures.

"Who are you? Why are you here? ”

Qin Man asked straight to the point.

The young man smiled slightly, took out a bronze tiger talisman from his arms, and handed it to Qin Man with both hands, "Under Tang Li, entrusted by the captain, I came to protect Miss Man." ”
