July 25 of the first year of Great Qin II.

This was the first time Hu Hai came to Great Qin to meet Li Yan, the future Empress of Great Qin.

Hu Hai thought about meeting Empress Li Yan in his spare time, because he didn't know Li Yan. The only thing I didn't expect was to see Li Yan at this time and in this state.

Although there was no post-canonization ceremony, Li Yan was already a well-known queen of Great Qin two months ago. Hu Hai had never seen Li Yan, but Li Yan's outfit and standing position at the moment had clearly indicated her identity.

A crown with Hu Hai's imperial crown is one point smaller, and the crown hangs down a few tassels. The wide back robe woven of black and gold wrapped around Li Yan's delicate body, and the two delicate collarbones under the slender neck were slightly exposed, and the towering twin peaks seemed to be about to break out. A wide gilded jade belt is tightly tied around the waist of the willow that can be grasped in a grip, outlining a thrilling and alluring line.

The white skin is set off by the black back robe, which is as delicate as snow.

Li Yan in the crowd is noble and cold.

"Concubines (ministers, etc.) see Your Majesty!"

Li Yan, who came up, and a group of ministers from the court, bowed to Hu Hai who came on a horse from afar.

Looking at Li Yan who bowed and saluted, Hu Hai looked at him slightly, then turned over and dismounted, walked a few steps to help Li Yan and said, "The queen doesn't have to be polite." All of you Aiqing are also flat. ”

Li Yan, who was grabbed by Hu Hai's big hands, shook his body suddenly, as if he didn't expect the emperor to be like this. This was the first time Hu Hai had touched her.

Li Yan's eyes were red and swollen, obviously he had just cried in the mansion, and he was a little more delicate in addition to being noble and cold. Lovely. The rest of Yao Jia, Zheng Guo and other ministers were all teary-eyed, and Li Si's sudden death was a heavy blow to anyone in his family.

For example, it is said that the prime minister of Zhongtian is a family, and suddenly the dragons have no leader. When Li Si was alive, the power of one person could resist the Mengshi clan and Feng Quji's father and son, and now that Li Si has passed away, Feng Quji's promotion to the position of Zuo Prime Minister is inevitable.

The Meng clan behind Meng Tian and Meng Yi's brothers, as well as the Feng clan of Feng Quji and Feng Zheng, no matter which one they take, they are not something that any important minister in the court can contend with, only Li Si, and only Li Si, can easily navigate it.

Li Si passed away, and the matter of falling into the well may not be done by Meng Tian and Feng Qujian in a short period of time. After all, today's emperor is not the emperor who was dumb and at the mercy of others and only knew how to have fun with beautiful women.

The ambition of the emperor is now clear to any of the courtiers in the Great Qin court.

However, with the passage of time, when Feng Quji gradually grasped the power of the DPRK, the officials of the Li Si family did not have to think about it, it was inevitable that they would be suppressed. If you add the Mengshi clan of the two brothers, Meng Tian and Meng Yi, the prospects of the entire Li Si family are already bleak.

Yao Jia, Zheng Guo, Hu Wujing and others, who are Jiuqing, are extremely clear about these.

Today, they received the news and rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion, in addition to mourning, they wanted to discuss countermeasures. Of course, it would be best if you could get the support of the queen.

After all, the pillow wind carries more weight than anyone's words.

Li Yan is a great beauty.

Before they could start talking, the emperor had already joined forces with Meng Tian, Wei Yi, and Feng Quji.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The courtiers choked up and got up.

"I was shocked to hear the bad news, so I hurried here. Where is the Prime Minister? Hu Hai didn't let go of the arm that was holding Li Yan, and stood in front of Li Yan and asked in a deep voice.

It was the first time I had been so close to my titular husband. This is also the first time Li Yan has met Hu Hai in a year. Hearing Li Si say last night that the emperor was no longer the previous emperor, Li Yan still had some doubts in his heart. But at this moment, when the emperor was standing less than three steps in front of her, she realized that her old father said that "the emperor is no longer the previous emperor".

The emperor has indeed changed.

On the wedding night, when the emperor drunkenly entered the palace and rushed towards Li Yan, the silver evil light in his eyes like a hungry wolf is still fresh in his memory. In a panic, Li Yan knocked on Hu Hai's head with a wine bottle.

There was no blood, but Hu Hai cried like a child when he was in pain. Then he slammed the door and went out, and since then, Hu Hai has never entered Li Yan's dormitory again. Originally, Li Yan's longing wedding night ended in such a farce.

The events of the wedding night also left a shadow on Li Yan. Hu Hai didn't come, and she was just as happy. However, she has always known very well that if it weren't for the fact that her father Li Si was the high-ranking and powerful prime minister of Great Qin, she Li Yan would have been tortured to death by that lustful and stupid Hu Hai.

But today, after a year, I see Hu Hai again. Li Yan can no longer find the shadow of the prince who looks like a demon in his memory.

The body is tall and the eyes are blazing. I can't see Xi Yue's wine-colored hollowed out body at all, and she can't even stop her from resisting as a weak woman. There is a dragon and tiger momentum between walking. really has a little bit of the emperor's breath to rule the world.

Li Yan, who looked at Hu Hai in a daze, suddenly heard Hu Hai's question, and suddenly found that he had lost his temper, and the few accidents and distracting thoughts in his heart were instantly replaced by the pain of losing his father.

"Back to Your Majesty, my father's coffin is above the lobby!"

The tears that Li Yan had just put away suddenly flowed out again.

Although the old father rarely went to see her in person since she entered the palace, Li Yan knew very well that the old father cared about her disobedient daughter all the time. Last night, it was precisely because he cared about her that he rushed to Ganquan Palace overnight to persuade despite the heat.

It was precisely because of persuading her that it led to the assassination on the road. If there had been no assassination on the road, the old and frail father would not have been frightened, let alone become angry and leave.

The matter of Li Si's assassination had already been reported by the guards after Li Si returned home.

Combined with what the imperial doctor said, Li Yan naturally blamed a large part of the cause of his father's sudden death on himself. Therefore, she is particularly sad at the moment.

"Okay, don't be upset. Let me in. Hu Hai looked at Li Yan's crying pear blossom with rain and comforted. Hu Hai couldn't help but grab Li Yan's little hand and led Li Yan towards the mansion.

His little hand suddenly fell into a warm palm, and Li Yan, who had never been in such contact with a man, was suddenly startled, and subconsciously wanted to break free, but he didn't want to be tightly held by Hu Hai, and he couldn't break free at all.

Li Yan, who reacted immediately, didn't expect Hu Hai to become so domineering and hold his hand in such a large public. A layer of pink flush instantly climbed up Li Yan's snow-white pink neck. had to let Hu Hai lead him towards the mansion, Hu Hai didn't care about these at all, holding Li Yan's hand was also his helpless move at the moment. It's not that he has any thoughts about Li Yan. Although Li Yan is indeed a beauty. However, Hu Hai is not a nymphomaniac.

The panic of the Li family and the Li Si family Hu Hai could clearly feel it. At the same time, he knew exactly why they were terrified. The big tree of Li Si has fallen, and there is no one in the court who can be the opponent of Meng Tian and Feng Quji.

Yao Jia, Hu Wujing and others are obviously not the same as Meng Tian and Feng Quji.

At this time, if Hu Hai showed that he was as cold as Li Yan, then it could only make everyone even more panicked. The emperor doesn't favor the queen, without Li Si, and without the support of the queen, some people with a heart think that the emperor is going to suppress the Li family.

Hu Hai wasn't worried about Meng Tian and Feng Quji. The relationship between the two of them and Li Si is really hard to say, they are also enemies and friends, and now in the case of Li Si is dead. If they didn't even have this capacity, they wouldn't have gotten to where they are now. Hu Hai felt that the two of them would definitely take more care of Li Si's descendants.

However, Meng Tian and Feng Quji will not do anything to the officials of the Li Si family, and they will not do anything to the Li family, which does not mean that some officials in their clan or under them will come out to attack Li Si in order to invite merit.

There are few people who do the charcoal in the snow. There is never a shortage of people to do the things that fall into the ground.

Hu Hai held Li Yan's hand precisely to warn some people who wanted to be smart afterwards.

Now, if you want to appease the panic in the hearts of these people, is there anything more than holding Li Yan's hand can express? Facts speak louder than words. The empress is deeply favored by the emperor, and naturally can make those courtiers who want to fall into the well have a little more scruples.

What Daqin needs most now is stability.

Seeing that the emperor was holding Li Yan's hand and walking towards the mansion, Meng Tian, Wei Yi, and Feng Qujian glanced at each other, greeted Yao Jia and others who greeted them, and followed Hu Hai to the mansion. Left behind many Li Simen who were refreshed by seeing the emperor holding Li Yan's hand.

The lobby of the Prime Minister's Mansion has now become Li Si's mourning hall. Countless white flags fluttered. Because everyone went out to greet the emperor, the huge mourning hall was now empty.

In the middle of the lobby, in a coffin made entirely of ice bricks, lying in his clothes was none other than the powerful minister of the Great Qin generation, Li Si.

Before coming to the lobby, Hu Hai had already taken the initiative to let go of the big hand that had been holding Li Yan. Walk slowly into the huge mourning hall alone. Li Yan silently followed behind Hu Hai. For some reason, the sudden loss of that warm big hand made Li Yan feel a little more lost for no reason. Just being held by that big hand, Li Yan could clearly feel the envy and reverence of countless people around him, and that sense of security was something Li Yan had never felt.

However, this distracting thought only flashed in Li Yan's heart, and was replaced by endless grief in an instant.

Li Si lay quietly on the white jade bed, his whole body surrounded by ice bricks in the middle. Now that the weather is hot, if there are no ice bricks to cool down, I am afraid that it will not be long before Li Si's corpse will stink.

This was the first time Hu Hai had observed Li Si so closely. At this moment, Li Si, who was lying on the ice bed and was lifeless, was extremely peaceful, with a certain relief on his face. No one can see that this is a powerful minister who has been in charge of the Great Qin Dynasty for more than ten years.

The deceased is like a husband!
