Chapter 044: Li Zi Misunderstood Me!

Night falls.

There are no people on the spacious streets of Xianyang City.

Xianyang City imposes a curfew, and no one is allowed to go out after nightfall.

The moonlight tilted like water on this ancient city, covering the city with a layer of hazy gauze.

There were no street lights in the Qin Dynasty.

Also, because firewood and fuel are expensive, ordinary people cannot use it at will, so most of the houses on both sides of the road are black.

Therefore, the visibility of Xianyang City at night depends largely on whether the moonlight was bright that night.

Except for the other side of the tower, the dim lights there can be light up until the sun is no more than three o'clock.

Tonight, there is a crescent moon in the sky.

The visibility of Xianyang City is not very high.

The city defense army was a team of five people, each wearing a three-foot Qin sword around his waist, and patrolling steadily.

They were on patrol missions with the men in the palace, but they did not have torches on their hands.

But their rights are much greater than those of the Langguan. As long as they see any suspicious figure, they have the right to kill them directly!

Li Si, who left Xianyang Palace, returned to his mansion under the escort of Yiwucheng Defense Forces.

"Mr. Tingwei, we will leave." The sergeant bowed and saluted.

"I'm working hard." Li Si returned the favor gently.

Entering the main door and entering the inner room.

Li Si’s wife Cai Yan came to meet her with a pot of tea. Seeing Li Si’s face covered with black veil, she couldn’t help but joke: “Why did you go to the palace and bring back this object?”

The two have been husband and wife for more than ten years and have a tacit understanding.

When Cai Yan saw Li Si's style, she knew that Li Si was in a very good mood at the moment, so she spoke out to tease her.

"Xijun, I will take off this veil, don't be afraid." Li Si's voice also had a teasing meaning.

"What are you and I have been afraid of when we sleep in the same bed for more than ten years? This sound is a bit strange. Are you suffering from the cold?"

Cai Yan handed a cup of tea to Li Si.

At this moment, Li Si untied his veil, and his swollen face, covered with black, purple and red, was reflected in Cai Yan's eyes.

Snap ~

The teacup fell to the ground and smashed, with fragments splashing everywhere, and several pieces hit Li Si's feet.

Only officials with more than one thousand stones can enjoy tea soup freely, flowing all over the ground.

"Husband! How could this happen? Who is taking this harsh action!"

Cai Yan stepped in front of Li Si in one step, and her feet made the teacup fragments on the ground clatter.

Her eyes were filled with pain, and the ordinary-looking Chu Ren's face was full of anxiety.

"Not hindrance." Li Si grabbed his wife's trembling hand with one hand and comforted him: "I said don't be scared."

The other hand took out half the size of a palm from his arms, and drew the medicine bottle with exquisite black bird patterns, which was stuffed into Cai Yan's palm.

"This is given by Your Majesty. You can cure it after applying it outside three days. You can only use the trauma medicine specially used by Your Majesty. This is the second person to use it!"

Cai Yan heard the pride in Li Si's words, but she didn't think there was anything to be proud of.

She had not yet been sad, and her anger surged on the hole again. She grabbed the medicine bottle and said angrily: "Is the King of Qin's injury caused by the King of Qin? He hurts you! No matter how effective the medicine is, it will only restore you to the unharmed appearance! The King of Qin is mean and merciless!"

Li Si frowned, looked at Cai Yan seriously, and said sternly: "Don't speak rudely, you are rude to Your Majesty! And if you are unified today, you should call Your Majesty!"

Seeing that Cai Yan's expression did not change at all, Li Si knew that Cai Yan was sad and angry for him, and said softly: "When I was in Chu, I was a poor-minded official who looked at miscellaneous things. When I was in Qi, I was a college student who could not enter the court to discuss politics. When I arrived in Qin, I now became a court lieutenant with an annual salary of 2,000 shi."

"Your Majesty is so kind. Today I just slapped me a few times. What else do you have to resent? Don't behave like this little daughter. It's not that I'm not good at taking this. Your Majesty promises me not to be on duty before my injury has recovered. You always say that I'm busy with official duties and have been with you in the house these three days. Don't think I'm annoyed."

It was another round of good advice that it took Cai Yan to persuade her to be well.

Cai Yan helped Li Si lie on the soft couch, called her to clean up the debris under the hall, and applied the wound medicine to Li Si by herself. While applying it, she asked with pain: "Why did it look like this?"

When Li Si heard this, his brow frowned, causing another severe pain in his face.

He was also puzzled by this.

Although his results were gratifying, the process was extremely miserable.

He was slapped on the left and right in Zhangtai Palace. He suspected that he would be slapped to death.

When he was finally scolded by Ying Zheng, he realized that perhaps the brotherly love between Emperor Qin and Ying Chenghua was extremely deep. He flattered the horse's leg and was beaten!

But it was too late to make up for it at that time, so he was very upset on the way out of the palace.

When Zhao Gao suddenly appeared in front of him, his first reaction was that his Majesty wanted to kill me!

It was not until Zhao Gao read out the holy wish to him and gave him a bottle of trauma medicine that only the First Emperor himself could use that he kept his heart in his stomach and knew that he had the right bet.

But since he had the right bet, why did he get slapped more than a dozen times?

Li Si was puzzled by this matter.

But he couldn't rely on Emperor Shi, nor did he dare to rely on this matter, so he could only put his grudges on Ying Chengqiu.

"It's all because of Ying Chengjiao!" Li Si said angrily.

"Is Ying Chengqiu asking the King of Qin to make his husband like this?" Cai Yan said halfway, and saw Li Si's stern eyes, and hurriedly changed his words.

"No. But it has nothing to do with that man!"

When Cai Yan heard the three words Ying Chengqi, she suddenly remembered a bamboo slip sent by Tingwei's mansion.

After applying trauma medicine for Li Si, he hurriedly handed the bamboo slips to Li Si.

"The Tingwei Mansion sent it, saying that they dare not make decisions and you must check it out in person."

"Oh? This is strange. Is there a major case today?" Li Si smiled and took it with pleasure. Most of the time, he was very happy to handle official duties.

"I haven't heard that some people's lives have been killed." Cai Yan tilted her head and thought.

There is nothing new in Xianyang City. If there is a murder case, it will spread throughout Xianyang City within a day.

Li Si unfolded the bamboo slips and said, "It's not like the prison again..."

When talking about the last word, Liss paused.

Because he had opened the bamboo slips and saw the words written on the bamboo slips!

The prison of Tingwei is really full.

It was still what he complained about Ying Chengcai!

"Haha, heha, heha."

Li Si laughed dryly.

Most of the names of the prisoners described above are well-known to him.

There is a son of a doctor, a younger brother of a censor, a wealthy merchant from Chu, and a captain...

Although there are no direct children of 1,000 stones or 2,000 stones on it, so many nobles gather together are a force that even he, the court lieutenant, cannot be underestimated.

"Xijun, please help me prepare a hat."

Li Si knew that he had been in trouble on the first day of these three days of vacation.

With so many nobles, the officials of the Tingwei Mansion would not dare to make decisions if he did not attend in person.

"What is your husband going to do?"

"How can I be on duty if I don't wear a hat?"

"Didn't your Majesty have the permission to rest in these three days?"

Rest?

The nobles all filled the prison of the Tingwei, how can I rest?!

Thinking of the company promised to his wife, I broke my promise in a blink of an eye.

The newly cleared Tingwei Prison prison is full again.

Li Si couldn't help but say in a muffled voice: "I'm sorry!"
