Chapter 268 Sure enough, being with you is like being with a tiger!

In the early morning of the next day, the sun was just right, and the vast expanse was full of white blossoms.

The imperial guards stationed in Pinyang City set off on time.

Tens of thousands of imperial guards stretched for tens of miles, starting from Pinyang.

The imperial army is divided into three parts: front, middle and back.

The front army was responsible for cleaning the four fields, the middle army was responsible for protecting the first emperor, and the rear army was responsible for escorting the luggage.

A group of accompanying ministers were also in the ranks of the Chinese army, waiting for the first emperor to call.

As for Zhao Kun, he hangs far away in the rear army.

In the middle army, Yingzheng's Long Xun was pulled by eight horses, guarded by imperial guards in heavy armor on both sides.

The huge dragon is very spacious, like a mobile house.

Yingzheng's food and daily life are basically done on Long Yu.

However, even though he was driving on the road, Ying Zheng still didn't rest, and was reviewing the memorial in the carriage at this time.

As the carriage swayed, Ying Zheng's body also swayed, and the hand holding the writing brush sometimes fell and sometimes hovered in mid-air.

Inside the carriage, Zhao Gao sat kneeling on one side, sometimes putting away the bamboo slips, and sometimes grinding them carefully.

The first emperor favored Zhao Gao not only because he could take good care of the first emperor's daily life, but also because he was special.

The Great Qin established the country by law, and the laws of Qin were strict and complicated. Whenever the first emperor reviewed the memorials, he had to read the thick and heavy Qin law classics, which was very inconvenient.

However, what is special about Zhao Gao is that he can recite the entire Qin Law. Whenever the first emperor needs to use Qin Law, he can always explain it like a treasure.

It is precisely because of his special feature that Emperor Shi Huang attached great importance to him.

Every time he travels, Zhao Gao is inseparable from the first emperor.

"Your Majesty, the review of the memorial sent today has been completed. The old slave has prepared some snacks and fruits for you. Your Majesty, please take a rest." Zhao Gao, who was kneeling beside Ying Zheng, said carefully while packing up the bamboo slips.

Ying Zheng put down the pen in his hand, looked at the sky outside through the curtain, frowned and said, "No need, go and call Meng Yi."

"promise."

After hearing the words, Zhao Gao immediately shut up, and then retreated as promised.

Looking at Zhao Gao's leaving back, Ying Zheng murmured thoughtfully, "I don't know if he's used to putting that kid in the rear army?"

Ying Zheng hadn't seen Zhao Kun since last night, but according to Meng Yi, he had already boarded the carriage.

Soon, Meng Yi came to Yingzheng Longhuwai.

"His Majesty."

Outside Long Chuan, Meng Yi rode up to catch up with Ying Zheng's Long Chuan, and called out respectfully by the window.

Ying Zheng gave an 'hmm', and then asked calmly, "Is there anything unusual about Mr. Li An being in the rear?"

Outside the carriage, Meng Yi had a strange expression on his face.

He knew that the first emperor came to ask him about Zhao Kun, but the scene he saw when he went to the rear army before was really hard to tell.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Li An is very good." Meng Yi said with some embarrassment.

"Ok?"

Ying Zheng frowned, then turned his head to look at Meng Yi, narrowed his eyes and said, "You said it was good? Why did I hear something embarrassing in the words?"

"This"

Meng Yi, who was riding on the horse, seemed a little hesitant.

Ying Zheng snorted, and scolded in a low voice, "Quickly, what is that kid doing now?"

Hearing this, Meng Yi also looked helpless.

But he didn't dare to hide the question from the First Emperor, so he hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "That. Mr. Li An brought some pigs on the road!"

"."

Ying Zheng's face darkened suddenly.

good boy!
As soon as he hit the road, he started acting like a monster!
The first emperor's east tour was to frighten the world, so that the remnants of the six kingdoms would be afraid of the first emperor's heavenly power. You kid actually raised pigs behind the first emperor's east tour motorcade. Isn't this clearly trying to demolish the first emperor?
Why, is it to let the remnants of the six kingdoms see my jokes?
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked coldly, "Why did the kid take the pig on the road?"

"Mr. Li An said that the journey to the east is far away, and the diet is too monotonous. Raising some pigs in the army can not only help the soldiers improve their food, but also help them defend against the enemy!"

"Nonsense! I think he is just messing around! Whose art of war raises pigs to fend off the enemy? It's simply unreasonable!"

Ying Zheng, who was sitting in the carriage, was so angry that he almost died on the spot.

Meng Yi outside the carriage was terrified, but still bit the bullet and comforted him: "Your Majesty, Weichen also told Li Anjun, but he said he said"

Ying Zheng's old face had already turned black, and he shouted angrily, "What did he say? Why don't you tell the truth!"

"Mr. Li An said that it is really the best strategy to attack the enemy without fighting. His art of war is just like that, which is surprising." Meng Yi said in a low voice.

"Surprise?"

Ying Zheng was taken aback for a moment: "How can I be caught by surprise?"

"Even if you encounter an enemy army, don't panic. Grab dozens of pigs, sprinkle them with kerosene, then ignite the kerosene, and let those pigs attack the enemy army. This method of warfare is called Fire Pig Array!"

"Fire pig array?"

Ying Zheng was stunned, thinking that this kid is good at making nonsense!

Although it sounds reasonable, in practice, I am afraid it is not very reliable.

After all, the controllability of animals is not high.

But this is not the crux of the problem. The crux is that raising pigs in the army is really detrimental to the royal dignity.

Even if those pigs are useful, it won't work.

After thinking for a while, Ying Zheng immediately said to Meng Yi: "Meng Yi, go and find out what Li An Jun wants to do right now, right now?"

"Pig raising? If he wants to raise pigs, let him go to Jiuyuan to raise them. There are plenty of places for him to raise pigs. There's also that so-called 'fire pig array', don't even think about it!"

"The minister obeys the order."

Meng Yi wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, answered in embarrassment, then turned his horse's head and ran towards the rear army.

At the same time, the rear army Zhao Kun's carriage.

Taohua carefully made tea for Zhao Kun, while Chunxiao knelt beside him and cut the fruit.

"Old Wu hasn't come back yet!"

Zhao Kun lay sideways on the carriage, resting his chin in his hand, and murmured: "It's almost noon, haven't you had enough fun?"

From last night to now, Wu Cheng has gone and never returned.

At first, Zhao Kun was quite worried about him, but then Ying Yuanman sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that she had something to explain to Wu Cheng.

What can she tell Wu Cheng?It's not just the bad things about men and women!
It seems that this imperial lady is really lonely...

The first time I saw Ying Yuanman, Zhao Kun felt that she was not simple, and what she said was always unpredictable.

Although Zhao Kun felt that Wu Cheng would not be so casual, Ying Yuanman was his imperial sister after all, so he would not harm Wu Cheng.

What's more, he was the one who asked Wu Cheng to pick up Ying Yuanman, so it's not good to forcefully disturb him.

After pondering for a while, Zhao Kun sighed, then turned to look at Taohua: "What's for lunch today?"

"Xiao Wu said that there is a pig that is very suitable for making braised pork." Taohua handed the tea to Zhao Kun and said.

Zhao Kun took the tea, took a sip, smacked his lips and said, "I'm tired of red meat, let's get a roast suckling pig to eat!"

Peach Blossom: "."

Tao Hua: "Okay, this servant will go and inform Xiao Wu and the others right away."

With that said, Taohua got up and left the carriage.

And Chun Xiao who was at the side asked curiously: "Your Majesty, if you just like to eat pork, you can kill some pigs and bring them with you. Why do you want to raise a group of pigs to follow the army?"

Zhao Kun squinted at Chunxiao, and asked indifferently: "Why, you also despise me for raising pigs?"

"The slaves dare not!"

Chun Xiao was taken aback, and quickly kowtowed: "This servant just thinks that your majesty has a noble status and is not suitable for doing such vulgar things."

"Fart's status is honorable."

Zhao Kun rolled his eyes and said, "Didn't Marquis Tongwu also open a pig farm? Why didn't anyone say he shouldn't raise pigs?"

"As long as it's good for you, you can do anything!"

"This servant doesn't understand."

Chunxiao looked up at Zhao Kun blankly.

Zhao Kun pursed his lips and said, "Don't even think about it. I am Lord Li An. I was supposed to stay with my father in the middle army, but I was assigned to the rear army. Why?"

"Could it be that His Majesty is dissatisfied with Lord Li An?" Chun Xiao tentatively replied.

Zhao Kun frowned: "If Father is dissatisfied with me, he would have ordered him to reprimand him a long time ago. How could he do such a nasty thing?"

"Then why was your majesty assigned to the rear army?"

"I told you that you still don't understand, so it's better not to say it. Anyway, you have to remember, take care of yourself along the way, so you don't know how you died when the time comes!"

"what?"

Chunxiao was startled again.

Zhao Kun reprimanded in a low voice with some dissatisfaction: "Don't yell, don't bluff, be careful that I send you to feed the pigs!"

Chunxiao shrank her neck, as if she was afraid to feed the pigs, and quickly handed the cut fruit to Zhao Kun, saying, "Your Majesty, the fruit is cut, you can try it!"

Zhao Kun: "."

When Meng Yi came to Zhao Kun's carriage non-stop, Zhao Kun was eating roast suckling pig.

It has to be said that the craftsmanship of the two fire-headed troops is really amazing.

Although it's okay to be a pilot, a pilot who can't cook well is not a qualified pilot.

"Li An-jun, Your Majesty asked me to talk to you!"

Outside the carriage, Meng Yi's voice suddenly sounded.

"Ok?"

Zhao Kun was stunned for a moment, then asked someone to lift the curtain, and asked, "Meng Shangqing, why did my father ask you to come and talk to me?"

Originally, Meng Yi came to talk about things in a serious manner, but when he saw Zhao Kun holding a roast suckling pig and looking at him with greasy mouth, he couldn't help being stunned.

Zhao Kun: "."

Meng Yi: "."

The two looked at each other without speaking.

After a while, Meng Yi sniffed, and asked suspiciously: "Do you eat pork, Mr. Li An?"

Zhao Kun put down the roast suckling pig, wiped his mouth, and said, "Yes, this is indeed pork!"

"Then Li An Jun raises pigs for food?" Meng Yi asked again.

Zhao Kun nodded.

"The fire pig array."

"I don't need it now, when I can use it, Meng Shangqing will know it at a glance."

Zhao Kun said something meaningful, and then asked, "I wonder what Meng Shangqing wants to talk about under the order of my father?"

Meng Yi hesitated and said: "This...is that His Majesty is somewhat dissatisfied with Li An Jun raising pigs in the army."

"Oh?" Zhao Kun raised his eyebrows: "Since father is dissatisfied, why didn't you call me to reprimand?"

"."

As soon as the words fell, Meng Yi was taken aback, thinking what kind of operation is this?
Others are afraid of being reprimanded by the first emperor, but how can you beg for a reprimand from the first emperor?
Could it be that Mr. Li An has some special hobbies?

Thinking of this, Meng Yi's eyes became a little weird, but he still said in a soft voice: "Perhaps His Majesty is not so dissatisfied."

"Since you're not that dissatisfied, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Zhao Kun shrugged, then picked up the roast suckling pig and began to eat it.

Seeing this, Meng Yi opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

"Crack!"

Zhao Kun tore off a mouthful of pork, and while chewing, tilted his head to look at Meng Yi, and said vaguely, "Why is there something wrong with Meng Yi?"

"Gollum."

Meng Yi swallowed subconsciously.

From just now until now, he has tried his best to maintain Shangqing's prestige
But what Zhao Kun ate was so delicious. It was not like he had never eaten pork before, but this was the first time he had smelled such delicious pork.

Swallowing again, Meng Yi couldn't bear the scent, turned his horse's head, and was about to leave.

But at this time, Zhao Kun suddenly called Meng Yi: "Meng Shangqing, it's almost noon, the army should stop and bury the pot for cooking!"

As he spoke, he seemed to think of something again, and said: "My royal father should be hungry too. There are two more suckling pigs roasted here, one for you, and Meng Shangqing to convey the other to my royal father, how about it?"

"This"

Meng Yile stopped the sitting horse and looked at Zhao Kun with some hesitation.

Zhao Kun smiled and added: "If Meng Shangqing feels unsafe, you can find someone to test for drugs!"

Hearing this, Meng Yi hurriedly cupped his hands: "Mr. Li An is too worried, but I am just driving the horse, I am afraid that it will be inconvenient to carry."

"It's okay!"

Zhao Kun waved his hand, and then shouted to the outside of the carriage: "Xiao Wu, take the roast suckling pig and go with Meng Shangqing to see my father!"

"promise!"

Outside the carriage, Xiao Wu responded respectfully.

Meng Yi frowned, thinking to himself, he knew that Zhao Kun should have been prepared, so he asked in a low voice: "Do you have anything to say, Mr. Li An?"

"I have nothing to say, but it's a little strange. How could I be assigned to the rear army?" Zhao Kun asked nonchalantly.

"This is arranged by His Majesty."

"My father arranged it?"

Zhao Kun was a little surprised.

Meng Yi nodded and said: "Your Majesty said that the rear army's luggage is related to the smoothness of the east tour, and he can rest assured that Li Anjun is in charge."

Hearing this, Zhao Kun only felt it was absurd. He was not a great general, so how could he be reassuring?

Did Emperor Shihuang really have a problem with himself?
Thinking of this, Zhao Kun subconsciously glanced at Chunxiao, and his cheeks turned red.

He thought that someone was targeting him, but he didn't expect to have an oolong. It turned out that the one targeting him was Emperor Shihuang.

This is strange, I just became a prince not long ago, why was I suddenly targeted?

The first emperor's temperament is too moody!
Sure enough, accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger!

the other side.

Yingzheng's Chinese army has already set up camp.

Ying Zheng, who had been jostling on the carriage for a long time, walked out of Long Yu with Zhao Gao's support, and then rubbed his aching lower back.

Thinking of his first east tour, he sat for three days and three nights without feeling tired, but now it's only been half a day, and he can't stand it.

"I'm getting old!" Ying Zheng looked up and couldn't help but sigh.

Zhao Gao, who was at the side, complimented carefully: "How can Your Majesty grow old? It's just that the journey is too bumpy and His Majesty is tired."

As he spoke, he waved his hand behind him, and immediately a palace attendant brought a chair and placed it beside Ying Zheng.

"Your Majesty, please take a rest first, and this old slave will arrange for someone to prepare lunch."

"No, I'm not hungry, I don't want to eat"

As soon as Ying Zheng's words fell, the expression on his face suddenly froze, and he couldn't help sniffing.

what?
smell good!
Turning his head and taking a look, he saw Meng Yi holding something in his hand, walking towards him as if offering a treasure.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Meng Yi smiled and came to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng smelled the alluring fragrance and got closer to him.

Without thinking, he can guess that the source of this fragrance is in Meng Yi's hands.

Ying Zheng frowned: "What are you holding in your hand?"

"Your Majesty, this is a dish."

Meng Yi smiled and explained: "This dish is called roast suckling pig. It is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It is fat but not greasy. It is really delicious in the world."

"Roast suckling pig?"

Ying Zheng was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly remembered something, and said to Zhao Gao, "Zhao Gao, bring me a bowl of rice!"

Zhao Gao: "."

What's the situation?

Didn't you just say you don't want to eat, Your Majesty?

"Your Majesty, wait a moment, this old slave is going!"

Although he felt a little contemptuous of the first emperor, Zhao Gao agreed very quickly, and turned his head to find the dining room.

Ying Zheng sat on the chair, carefully looked at the roast suckling pig on the table, and then asked playfully, "Tell me, where did this thing come from?"

Naturally, Meng Yi did not dare to hide the truth from the First Emperor, so he replied truthfully: "Return to Your Majesty, this is a gift from Lord Li An."

"Oh?" Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows: "Why, I asked you to go to him and ask why the pigs were raised, and you were bought by him with a dish?"

"Your Majesty, I don't dare to disobey His Majesty's orders. I just feel that Mr. Li An seems to have misunderstood His Majesty."

"Ok?"

Ying Zheng looked at Meng Yi suspiciously, and thought to himself, why did that kid misunderstand me again?
"Tell me, why did he misunderstand." Ying Zheng looked at Meng Yi and said.

Meng Yi cupped his hands: "Returning to Your Majesty, I expressed to Li An Jun that His Majesty is dissatisfied with his pig raising, but Li An Jun asked me back, saying that if Your Majesty is dissatisfied, why didn't you call him to reprimand him face to face?"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then said a little dumbfounded: "That's all he told you?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, Mr. Li An also asked why he was placed in the rear army."

"Oh? Then how did you answer?"

Meng Yi said with some embarrassment: "Weichen. Weichen said that the rear army's supply is very important. Your Majesty will let Li Anjun guard it so that you can rest assured."

"Hahaha!"

Ying Zheng laughed out loud when he heard the words, then stroked his beard and said, "That's right! Meng Aiqing is right!"

".But will this make Mr. Li An's heart cold? After all, he has just been conferred the title of Marquis."

"It's okay, that kid knows that I arranged it, so he won't think too much about it!"

Ying Zheng smiled and waved his hand.

In Zhao Kun's heart, the adoptive father is the most important thing. Even if the arrangement of the first emperor puzzled him, he would not get angry with the first emperor at all.

After all, the First Emperor was just his father in name to him.

How can someone who doesn't care be angry with him?
As for the reason why Zhao Kun raised pigs, Ying Zheng also guessed, most likely because he was dissatisfied with being placed in the rear army, deliberately raised pigs to arouse the emperor's dissatisfaction, and then took the opportunity of summoning to see the emperor.

"His Majesty!"

Zhao Gao walked over to Ying Zheng holding a bowl of rice.

Ying Zheng took the rice, then glanced at Meng Yi: "Go on."

Meng Yi didn't speak in a hurry, but pointed to the roast suckling pig on the table, and said: "Your Majesty, this roast suckling pig should be eaten while it's hot, you can try it."

"it is good!"

Ying Zheng nodded and was about to taste it.

Zhao Gao at the side quickly reminded: "Your Majesty, wait a moment, this old slave will arrange for someone to test the poison!"

"What kind of poison to test? This is a gift from Mr. Li An!" Ying Zheng scolded with displeasure.

"But."

Zhao Gao looked puzzled.

Meng Yi suddenly realized: "Master Zhao, don't worry, I've already eaten this dish."

Hearing this, Ying Zheng glanced at Zhao Gao, then picked up the sliced ​​roast suckling pig and put it in his mouth.

Suddenly, a smell of crispy meat filled the mouth.

Meng Yi, who was standing opposite Ying Zheng, asked with a smile, "Your Majesty, is it fragrant?"

"It's so fragrant!"

Ying Zheng nodded quickly, the joy in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

After thinking about it for a while, he said to Meng Yi: "Let's not worry about Mr. Li An's affairs, as long as he doesn't bother you, just let him go!"
