Chen Xu coughed while rubbing the tea with his sleeves on his sleeve. After finally calming down, he said with tears in his eyes: "Mr. Meng, Xu has agreed to marry Wanniang. Your Majesty has also promised to be a matchmaker. You have heard His Majesty's words today. After the Huayu Palace was repaired, Xu will marry the fifth princess. Wanniang will naturally marry her together. Moreover, Xu will definitely treat her with a wife's courtesy and will never let her suffer grievances!"

"Hmph, this is not necessarily true. Wan Niang went to play in a villa outside your city yesterday, and she was depressed after she returned. I didn't say anything about whether the Marquis of Qinghe bullied Wan'er yesterday. If she was pregnant before she got married, where would I put her face..."

"Stop~ Stop~ Stop~" Chen Xu jumped up with a black thread and pointed at Meng Yi's nose and shouted, but then he felt a little rude, so he changed his middle finger, "Mr. Meng, Wan Niang is only thirteen years old, I have a beautiful wife and a large group of beautiful concubines, and the fifth princess is also present. How could I do such a beastly thing? You have to believe in my character..."

"Hmph, Wan Niang's appearance is stunning and gentle and virtuous. Everyone knows that it was in this Qinghe Hotel last time. The Marquis took off the fifth princess' clothes while drunk and made her feel cold..." Meng Yi curled his lips and said while drinking tea, obviously very suspicious of the character of a certain beast Marquis.

Chen Xu almost cried.

"Mr. Marquis, the wine and food are ready!"

Just as Chen Xu looked around to see if he could find a handy brick to make the old hooligan faint, the door of the room was knocked and a maid greeted him outside the door for dinner.

"I just ate a bowl of noodles in Chaoshi, and I'm really hungry!" Meng Yi stood up and pushed the door out on his own. When Chen Xu walked out, the old gangster had already washed his hands and sat down. While the two little maids were still helping him wrap a napkin around his neck, Meng Yi had already attacked a roast duck on the table, pulled off a duck leg and chewed it.

A table of dishes is the best chefs of Qinghe Hotel. There are more than ten dishes such as crispy roast duck, mapo tofu, sauce-flavored elbows, braised pork ribs, etc., which are filled with more than ten dishes.

Chen Xu washed his hands and sat down. The maid helped put on the napkin. Looking at Meng Yi's big mouthful of juice, Chen Xu didn't feel that he had a big appetite. After eating a few bites of the dishes, he ordered the maid to open a bottle of Qinghe wine to pour the wine for the two of them.

After eating and drinking for more than ten minutes, Meng Yi was about half full, so he slowed down his eating and drinking. He wiped his mouth and beard with a napkin and said, "Does the Marquis of Qinghe know? Yesterday, the Marquis of Tongwu wrote a letter to His Majesty, saying that the General was bedridden. He said that he had bid farewell to the emperor and his family was ready to retire and return home!"

"The General is so seriously ill?" Chen Xu was surprised.

"This is the second time that the Marquis of Tongwu has submitted a memorial. The first time is the third day after Zhao Gao was detained. However, the general seemed in good health at that time, so His Majesty did not agree. However, this time I visited the Marquis of Tongwu. It was indeed withered and dying, and he could not get up. His Majesty had also visited and rewarded many land and houses. Depending on the situation, he must agree this time!" Meng Yi nodded slightly.

Chen Xu also felt a little sad. He recalled the mighty and domineeringness of Wang Jian in Qinghe Town for the first time, and then a group of people beat the tiger. It only took two years to fall in a blink of an eye, like autumn leaves. Life and this time are ultimately unbreakable. No one can escape from birth, old age, sickness and death.

"The general fought countless wars in his life, and his father and son were the only ones. It took a long time to defeat Zhao and Chu. It was also a life-and-death battle. After defeating Zhao, the general was granted the title of Marquis of Wucheng, and after defeating Qi, Wang Ben was granted the title of Marquis of Tongwu. The Wang family father and son were two of the Marquis of the King. This was an unprecedented honor. This time, the General and the Marquis of Tongwu were allowed to return home. It is estimated that the Wang family would add another marquis!" Meng Yi said with emotion.

"Is Your Majesty going to be a marquis of Wang Li?" Chen Xu asked in surprise.

"It's almost that. Yesterday His Majesty summoned the left and right prime ministers to the palace to discuss matters. I heard that it was to arrange this matter. Wang Lihui went to the northwest military camp to lead troops to defend the Hungarian and Hu!" Meng Yi nodded.

"Your Majesty has launched an autumn war against the Hungarian and Hu. This battle will inevitably lead to a complete victory. The troubles of the Hungarian and Hu in the Northwest will inevitably be lifted. What is the significance of arranging the king to leave the Northwest Military Camp?"

In history, Wang Li was indeed in the Northwest Military Camp. After Meng Tian was forcibly forced to death by Zhao Gao, the military power fell into Wang Li's hands. After the chaos in the Central Plains, Wang Li led 100,000 Qin soldiers guarding the border back to help exterminate the rebel army. However, Wang Li's army was quickly defeated by Xiang Yu, and after Wang Li was captured by Xiang Yu, there was no record. It is said that he was killed by Xiang Yu.

But Wang Li is still over 20 years old and has not made much military achievements. His current position is just a lieutenant, the Imperial Army Chief, and it is indeed a bit sudden to be arranged to go to the border to control the army.

"The king left the northwest military camp, and the marquis of Qinghe should be able to guess a few points. Why should I ask clearly? After the autumn season, someone will definitely win the title of marquis. Zhao Gao's affairs made His Majesty separate me from me, which will inevitably implicate my brother. This battle is the best opportunity!"

If they were ordinary people, Meng Yi would never say these words in person, but he had dealt with Chen Xu several times and knew Chen Xu's nature. Moreover, when they dealt with Zhao Gao, they were also comrades on the same front. In addition, Chen Xu promised to marry Meng Wan, and the Meng and Chen families were considered in-laws in the future. Moreover, Meng Yi said it so bluntly, which made Chen Xu see his cautiousness in the relationship between the father-in-law and son-in-law, and did not regard Chen Xu as an outsider.

The biggest reason Meng Yi did this was to hold Chen Xu's thigh tightly.

Once the Meng brothers were suspicious by the emperor, many things would not be easy to predict in the future. However, no matter how the court changes, Chen Xu's power and status will never be weakened, but will only become stronger and stronger. This can be seen from the emperor's continuous rewards to Chen Xu that a foreigner must be granted the title of Marquis of Jingyang, with a fief of 3,000 households. He tried every means to marry his daughter to him. In order to achieve his goal, he also had to take advantage of the Meng family, a underage daughter.

All the emperor did was to tie Chen Xu and Da Qin together so that he could stay in Xianyang with peace of mind.

Before the daughter got married, her grandson's marquis and fief were ready.

This is no longer a matter of honor, but an unreasonable matter.

This kind of favor is beyond the reach of the world.

Therefore, no one in the civil and military affairs of the court would offend Chen Xu, including Li Si. Now he would not refute or raise any memorials proposed by Chen Xu, because refutation would not be useful, and the questions would be even more useless, because many of the things and ideas raised by Chen Xu were not something that ordinary people could understand, and many of Li Si could not understand at all.

For example, cement is the legendary magic of turning mud into stone like Xilan. It is true that hearing is false and seeing is true. Chen Xu wants to build a bridge on the Wei River and a cement road can refute anyone's opinions. In addition to sighing, he can only add some suspicion and respect for Chen Xu's identity.

The halo of the immortal disciples is enough to shine on the entire Qin Dynasty.

Half an hour later, the table of wine and food was scattered. After drinking four bottles of Qinghe wine, Meng Yi was already a little drunk.

"Thank you for the hospitality of the Marquis of Qinghe. I have to go to court in the afternoon, so I will say goodbye first. I will come back to invite the Marquis of Qinghe to the mansion to have a banquet next day!" Meng Yi stood up with a red face and said goodbye.

"Okay, Xu sends you to Lord Meng!" Chen Xu also felt a little dizzy when he drank, and swayed and walked out with Meng Yi.

"Qinghe Marquis, did you really not bully my Wan'er yesterday?" After getting in the car, the groom guards were already getting on the horse and ready to go. Meng Yi looked at Chen Xu who was standing next to him and said.

"No... absolutely not. I didn't even touch Wan Niang yesterday!" Chen Xu shook his head with a dark face.

"Oh~ out~" Meng Yi sighed and left with a little discomfort.

What happened to this old hooligan? It seems that he was disappointed that he didn't bully his daughter.

Chen Xu inexplicably turned back to the hotel.

It was noon, and it was the hottest summer. It was so sunny that it was so dizzy that Chen Xu was too lazy to go out and asked Yu Wuya to find a place to rest. So Yu Wuya arranged for a while and left a few guards around the hotel to take care of him, and took the rest to the Qinghe Theater next to him for barbecue and watch the show.

He went to the bathroom to take a cold shower, changed into dry shorts and short sleeves, and listening to the heart-wrenching cicadas in the yard outside, Chen Xu lay on the cold couch and decided to sleep before going to Tongwu Hou Mansion to visit Wang Jian.

Shortly after Chen Xu fell asleep, a woman in a colorful skirt in Qinghe Theater hurried out and went straight to where she lived.

"Dadada~" Caiqun's woman tapped on the half-closed window frame of Qingfeng Pavilion a few times.

"Who?" A slightly lazy voice came from the room. It was obvious that a woman was sleeping in the afternoon.

"Sister Caiying is up quickly, the Marquis is coming to the hotel!" Caiqun woman whispered by the window.

"Ah, really?" There was a sound of being dressed in the room. Soon the door of Qingfeng Pavilion was opened, and a woman in a white dress and charming face walked out.

Her hair was a little messy and her bun was half loose. The woman was holding an exquisite jade hairpin and she was still asking anxiously: "Sister Hui, when did the Marquis come? Where?"
