Yan Le hesitated and said: "But uncle, are you in prison now?"

"In prison? What does this mean? Do you think Meng Yi still dares to torture me?" Zhao Gao said with disdain, "Meng Yi is just a young boy. If he wasn't born in the Meng clan, and if Meng Wu died recently,

Can he sit in the high position of the left prisoner?"

"He's too young."

"We also know very little about the operation of the court."

"He can't do anything to me!"

"You don't have to worry about my situation in prison. You just need to take care of yourself and don't cause trouble outside during this period. If you cause trouble to me, I don't mind letting you go to jail."

Yan Le's face changed slightly.

He quickly said:

"Uncle, don't worry."

"How dare I cause trouble again?"

"It's just that I heard that Meng Yi investigated very carefully. I'm worried that Meng Yi really found something."

Zhao Gaoman said nonchalantly:

"Most of the things he checked were told by me."

"If he insists on it, I would be a little worried, but Meng Yi is obviously handling the case for the first time and doesn't understand the meaning. Therefore, he is focusing on me having an affair with the alchemist, colluding with the nobles of the six countries, and

I helped some people gain promotions and titles, but these things can't stop me."

Yan Le was puzzled.

As far as he knew, these were serious crimes, punishable for several crimes, and even punishable by death.

See the situation.

Zhao Gao showed a hint of pride in his eyes.

sneered:

"You know too little about the affairs in the palace."

"The palace is a big dyeing vat. Some things cannot be investigated in depth because they may be traced to other people. Meng Yi obviously doesn't know how to do this."

"I, Zhao Gao, have indeed secretly contacted the alchemist."

"But if I look for the alchemist, is it just for myself?"

"I am doing this for Your Majesty!"

"I have often presented elixirs to your majesty in the past. Some of the elixirs were praised by your majesty. They are also very effective. However, Da Qin has always been biased against alchemists, so your majesty directly asked the alchemists to make ordinary elixirs to treat diseases.

, doesn’t it make the world laugh?”

"Only a close minister like me can do this kind of thing!"

"Meng Yi doesn't understand!"

"Besides."

"Meng Yi has been checking my contact with the nobles of the Six Kingdoms these past few days. This is even more ridiculous. I, Zhao Gao, am originally from Zhao. What's the problem with contacting the nobles of the Six Kingdoms? What's more, the nobles I contacted have fled Xianyang. He

There is no evidence at all.”

"How dare he convict me without evidence?"

"As for nepotism."

"hehe."

"I, Zhao Gao, am just a eunuch. The only people I'm close to are my two younger brothers and you, my son-in-law. But how high are your official positions? And most of your official positions are promoted in accordance with the law. He

Can’t find a problem.”

"But those who can raise questions cannot delve into them."

"Because most of them are members of the Wang clan and the maternal clan of Mr. Hu Hai. These people are all related to Mr. Hu Hai. The reason why I can operate successfully is not only related to Mr. Hu Hai, but more importantly, His Majesty turns a blind eye.

Close one eye."

"After all, Marquis Wu Cheng died of illness and Marquis Tong Wu was in a coma. As a flag in the Qin army, how could the Wang clan fall easily? His Majesty's acquiescence in supporting some members of the Wang clan was actually given. I just helped His Majesty run a few more times.

Just a trip."

"The promotion of people from Prince Hu Hai's lineage has never been and is not approved by His Majesty."

"His Majesty's control over the court has never weakened!"

"It's just these unspoken rules. How can a man like Meng Yi, who comes from a wealthy family, understand it? Now that Meng Yi is clinging to these clues about me, he will only be found on His Majesty's head in the end.

"

"How can your Majesty be wrong?"

"The more severe Meng Yi's investigation is, the safer I will be."

"If Meng Yi really wanted to convict me, he could only convict me of crimes such as 'passing money' and 'taking an official position for good reasons'. But he obviously did not take these crimes seriously. He just wanted to punish me severely.

, and even sentenced me to death, but this is exactly helping me."

"Meng Yi is a man of upright and resolute character, but he doesn't know how to adapt or how to survive in the palace. He can't do anything to me."

"If he keeps insisting, Your Majesty will even forgive me himself."

Yan Le was stunned at first.

Then he seemed to realize something, his eyes flashed, and he exclaimed: "My uncle is indeed a mastermind. I'm afraid Meng Yi never dreamed of it. The more he investigates, the more beneficial it will be to my uncle."

"I, Yan Le, am really convinced."

A flash of complacency flashed in Zhao Gao's eyes.

Calmly said:

"You can go back."

"Remember to tell others not to worry about me."

"Nothing will happen to me."

"Nowadays, things in the DPRK are complicated. I am in prison, but I can stay out of it. This is not a bad thing for me."

Yan Le nodded quickly and said:

"Uncle, don't worry."

"After I go out, I will tell my uncle and the others as soon as possible. I will also give strict orders to others in the family and put them in a grounding zone. I will go back and wait for my uncle to come out."

Yan Le was all smiles.

A big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

He had been worried before, lest something really happened to Zhao Gao. He had committed many crimes in the past, and Zhao Gao had covered them up for him. If something happened to Zhao Gao this time, his affairs might be revealed at some point. By then,

He might not be able to escape.

Now that he heard Zhao Gao's words, he was completely relieved.

Zhao Gao sat down on the ground.

He ignored Yan Le again.

In fact, he was still a little scared in his heart.

Because of what happened in Xianyang Palace, he still dare not think about it until now.

But he didn't dare to really lose His Majesty's closeness.

So as soon as he was imprisoned, he immediately confessed the crime he had committed. He just wanted Meng Yi to investigate deeply and expose these things to His Majesty. When Your Majesty sees this, he may miss his old relationship, and he will be safe because of it.

Landed.

This is his plan.

However, he was not sure whether his plan would work.

Yan Le left.

There was an excited smile on his face.

Zhao Gao was left alone sitting cross-legged in the prison, with his back to the cell door, making it difficult to see his face clearly and guess his mentality at this moment.

The prison was silent.

Qin Luoheng came back and returned to the palace. He also told the First Emperor his worries immediately. After listening, the First Emperor looked very calm and did not have too many mood swings. Instead, he turned around and asked

Another thing.
