Chapter 175: Lord Zhao

Zhao Gao was not in a good mood today. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He was already on fire in his own house, and everyone was silent, and then he hurried out.

The people in his family don't know why Lord Zhao is so unhappy today, but other officials know that Meng Yi has successfully welcomed back Princess Yushu, and today is the day to return to Xianyang.

As early as last night, Meng Yi's Qin soldiers returned first to report the matter.

I even heard that the Qin army led by Meng Yi was also ambushed by the Tu'an people, and it was broken and raised the prestige of the Great Qin.

And Zhao Gao's displeasure was born from this.

――In Xianyang, if there is a bit of face, who doesn't know that the Montessori brothers have always been at odds with Zhao Gao?

And what Zhao Gao was most annoyed about was that in order to show his attention to General Meng and Yushu, His Majesty sent his most favored close minister to the city to take over, but Li Si did not use it.

What kind of logic is this?

Using Zhao Gao without Li Sina as prime minister naturally shows Qin Shi Huang's trust in him Zhao Gao, but Zhao Gao is still a little resentful.

He led people outside the city early in the morning to greet Concubine Li and General Meng, and after waiting for more than two hours, the Qin army led by Meng Yi came back in a mighty way.

However, Zhao Gao found that beside Meng Yi, who was the leader, there was a young man in strange clothes who was on a par with Meng Yi.

Zhao Gao couldn't help frowning, and asked the people left and right: "Who is Meng Yi's side?" ”

He was also surrounded by important officials in the court, although he was not a big person, but he was also a close confidant of his subordinates, so as soon as he asked a question, one of them hurriedly said: "That is what kind of monk Meng Yi met on the road-I think I want to introduce him to Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Gao frowned and said, "Why didn't you say this kind of thing earlier?" ”

The man said with sincere fear: "I have countless Xianyang Fangshi, and the lower officials think that it is a trivial ......."

"The minutiae?" Zhao Gao snorted coldly, "That Fang Shi can walk side by side with Meng Yi, can he be an ordinary person?" Even if he doesn't have any ability, I'm afraid that he is Meng Yi's person, who wants to take this opportunity to get close to His Majesty and wants to install someone next to His Majesty. ”

There is a layer of meaning that he didn't say, right now His Majesty is surrounded by his Zhao Gao's people, and if he wants to install someone next to His Majesty, it is equivalent to inserting a person in his Zhao Gao.

Zhao Gao's eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.

Although the Montessori brothers have always been at odds with him, their skills and political consciousness are not very high, and they have never been very concerned about the matter of placing people around the emperor, so for so many years, the close ministers around His Majesty who can speak are basically Zhao Gao's subordinates or allies.

And right now, is this Meng Yi planning to place people next to His Majesty?

His Majesty's attention to Fang Shi is well known, and if Meng Yi personally recommends a Fang Shi, he will definitely be able to gain His Majesty's trust.

When the time comes, it is equivalent to inserting a nail in Zhao Gao's place.

Zhao Gao would never allow such a situation to happen, especially if he had foreseen such a possibility.

Meng Yi's man is still far away, Zhao Gao pondered for a while, then he had an idea, slowly showed a sneer, and whispered to the person next to him: "Go and find Han Zhong - just say that there is an extremely strong warlock who wants to work for my Great Qin today, let him come and test for Your Majesty if this person has the ability to serve Your Majesty." ”

He paused here for a moment and said, "If necessary, it doesn't hurt for the prophet to meet Prime Minister Li Cheng." ”

The man suddenly understood, turned and hurried away.

Zhao Gao watched the man's back disappear behind the city gate, and then slowly showed a smile.

Meng Yi, Meng Yi, how capable can you find the Fang Shi in the countryside...... If I let Han Zhong make a move, I will definitely be able to make you find this country puppet to make a big fool.

Want to put someone next to me...... Wish for the moon.

At this time, the men and horses of the Qin army in the distance were already approaching, Zhao Gao put away the sneer on his face, replaced it with a sincere smile, and brought many officials and greeting teams behind him to welcome Meng Yi into the Qin capital Xianyang.

Entering the palace to meet His Majesty, of course, it could not be the entire Qin army, and before the process, the deputy general Nangong Yan had already led the Qin army back to the camp, and Meng Yi and Ye Fang were in front, Princess Yushu's carriage was behind, and the guards and horses were turned into capital guards, plus the ceremonial team, although the number of people was greatly reduced, the pomp and circumstance were much stronger.

The road from the city gate to the palace was cleared earlier, and its efficiency was comparable to that of modern times, although the road surface was not wide and the road was average, but there was no one, it was empty, and the ground was extremely clean.

Princess Yushu's carriage is at the back of the guards, Concubine Li is the concubine of Qin Shi Huang, no one dares to ignore it, and at the front of the queue, it should be General Meng Yi and Zhao Gao, the prime minister, who are neck and neck in the neck.

But...... Zhao Gao found that there was one more person between him and Meng Yi.

It's that alchemist.

The alchemist brought by Meng Yi is simply unbeknownst to the sky, what identity of a mere alchemist, how dare to be in front of a hundred officials, and he, the most favored and trusted person around him under the transformation of the first emperor?

However, Zhao Gao gave the Fang Shi several sharp looks, and the man was unmoved, so he rode his horse and walked between him and Meng Yi, as if he didn't know that he had committed a taboo.

Behind Zhao Gao, one of his henchmen understood the signal from Zhao Gao's expression, and now he took half a step forward slightly, and shouted: "That Fang Shi, what is your identity?" Dare to keep pace with General Meng and Prime Minister Zhao? ”

This person's shouting and questioning is quite in line with Zhao Gao's heart, and it can also embarrass Meng Yi by the way.

However, Ye Fang paused slightly, and reprimanded without looking back: "I have a humble status, and now I am on a par with General Meng and Lord Zhao, and I don't care about the extraordinary popularity of these two big people-where is your turn to make noise!" ”

On Ye Fang's side, Zhao Gao was shocked - I'll go, you yourself know that your low status shouldn't be on par with me, what kind of trouble is it to be so arrogant!

The person who asked was also confused, looking directly at Zhao Gao, obviously hoping to get some hints.

Zhao Gao was aggrieved in his heart, Ye Fang said that, and praised him for his extraordinary bearing, of course, to block his mouth.

This trick seemed extremely naïve to Zhao Gao, but he had to admit that this trick was quite useful, if he opened his mouth to reprimand Ye Fang now, it would seem that he had no bearing.

However, Ye Fang's words are also equivalent to selling himself - everyone can hear the meaning of Ye Fang's words.

In this way, this Fang Shi found by Meng Yi will become the kind of treacherous villain who takes advantage of the speed of his tongue in the hearts of everyone.

In this way, Ye Fang seems to have taken advantage of him, but he is really a loser, after all, Zhao Gao only lost a little face, but Ye Fang's image was half ruined.

It's just that Zhao Gao looked at the smug and disgusting expression on his side and Ye Fang, but he was stunned in his heart and felt a sense of grievance.

But he shook his head anyway, signaling his subordinate to stop doing more.

The person who spoke got his understanding and glanced at Ye Fang viciously, but after all, he retreated and didn't say anything more.

And Ye Fang, he turned his head, touched Zhao Gao, and said with a smile: "Lord Zhao, I don't know which idiot's subordinate this is...... is so rude, contradicting adults, adults don't want to go to their hearts. ”

Zhao Gao: "......"

He said in his heart: Let you be arrogant for a while, and wait to meet Your Majesty, a person like you will definitely dislike His Highness.
