There were no people on the spacious streets of Xianyang City.
Xianyang City has implemented a curfew, and no one is allowed to go out after dark.
The moonlight is like water, leaning on this ancient city, covering the city with a misty veil.
There were no street lights in the Qin Dynasty.
And because firewood and fuel are expensive and ordinary people cannot use them arbitrarily, most of the houses on both sides of the road are dark.
Therefore, the visibility of Xianyang City at night depends largely on whether the moonlight is bright that night.
Except for the dim light on the balcony, which can stay bright until the sun goes up.
Tonight, there is a waning moon in the sky.
The visibility of Xianyang City is not very high.
The city defense army consisted of five people, each wearing a three-foot Qin sword on his waist, and patrolled at a steady pace.
They were on the same patrol mission as the palace officials, but they had no lighting torches.
But their rights are much greater than those of Lang Guan. As long as they see any suspicious figure, they have the right to kill them directly on the spot!
After leaving Xianyang Palace, Li Si returned to his mansion under the escort of a group of city defense troops.
"Sir Tingwei, we take our leave." The captain bowed his hands and saluted.
"Thank you." Li Siwen returned the greeting.
Entered the gate and entered the inner room.
Li Si's wife Cai Yan came up to her with a pot of tea soup. Seeing Li Si's face covered with black gauze, she couldn't help but joked: "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 great understanding.
When Cai Yan saw Li Si's behavior, she knew that Li Si was in a very good mood at the moment, so she laughed out loud.
"Xijun, don't be afraid when I take off this veil." There was also a hint of teasing in Li Si's voice.
"You and I have been sleeping in the same bed for more than ten years. What are you afraid of? Is it because the sound is a little weird? Are you suffering from the cold?"
Cai Yan handed a cup of tea soup to Li Si.
At this moment, Li Si took off his veil, and his swollen face covered in black, purple and red came into Cai Yan's eyes.
Snap~
The tea cup fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. The pieces scattered everywhere, and several pieces hit Li Si's feet.
The tea soup, which only officials with more than a thousand dan can enjoy freely, flowed all over the floor.
"Husband! How could this happen? Who could do this?"
Cai Yan stepped in front of Li Si, and the pieces of the teacup on the ground clattered under her feet.
Her eyes were full of distress, and her ordinary-looking Chu face was full of eagerness.
"It's okay." Li Si held his wife's trembling hand with one hand and comforted him, "I told you not to be scared."
The other hand took out a half-palm-sized medicine bottle with a delicate black bird pattern from her arms and stuffed it into Cai Yan's palm.
"This is a gift from Your Majesty. It can be cured by external application in three days. I have to use His Majesty's special trauma medicine, and Si is the second person who can use it!"
Cai Yan heard the pride in Li Si's words, but she didn't think it was anything to be proud of at all.
She was still grieving, but anger came to her face again. She grabbed the medicine bottle and said angrily: "Did King Qin do your husband's injury? He hurt you! No matter how effective the medicine is, it can only restore you to your uninjured appearance.
!The King of Qin is mean and ungrateful!”
Li Si frowned, looked at Cai Yan seriously, and said sternly: "Don't speak rudely or be rude to His Majesty! And now that the world is unified, you should be called 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 the Chu State, I was a low-ranking official who only looked at sundries. When I was in the Qi State, I was not allowed to enter the court to discuss politics.
The student arrived in Qin State and has now become a court captain with an annual salary of two thousand dan."
"Your Majesty is so kind to me. You just slapped me a few times today. What do you have to resent? Don't act like a little girl. It's not all good for me to suffer this injury. Your Majesty allows me not to use it until the injury is healed."
When I was on duty, you always said that I was busy with official duties, so I would stay with you at home for the past three days, so don’t bother me."
After another burst of good words, Cai Yan was finally persuaded.
Cai Yan helped Li Si lie down on the soft couch, called her servants to clean up the water stains from the debris in the hall, and applied Li Si's wound medicine with her own hands. While applying it, she asked distressedly: "Why is it like this?"
When Li Si heard this, he frowned, and the injury on his face caused another sharp pain.
He was also very puzzled by this.
Although his results were gratifying, the process was extremely miserable.
In Zhangtai Palace, he was slapped on the left and right in the mouth. At that time, he suspected that he would be slapped to death.
When he was finally scolded by Ying Zheng and got out, he thought belatedly that maybe the First Emperor and Ying Chengyu had a deep brotherly relationship, and he was flattering the horse's legs, so he was beaten all the time!
But by then it was too late to remedy the situation, so he felt very restless and restless on the way out of the palace.
When Zhao Gao suddenly appeared in front of him, his first reaction was that it was over, Your Majesty is going to kill me!
It wasn't until Zhao Gao read out the holy will to him and gave him a bottle of trauma medicine that only the First Emperor could use, that he felt his heart in his stomach and knew that he had made the right bet.
But since the bet was right, why did he get slapped more than a dozen times?
Li Si was puzzled by this matter.
But he couldn't rely on the First Emperor for this matter, and he didn't dare to rely on it, so he could only put his resentment on Ying Chengyu.
"It's all Ying Chengyu's fault!" Li Si said bitterly.
"Did Ying Chengyu want the King of Qin to beat his husband like this?" Cai Yan was halfway through her words when she saw Li Si's stern eyes and hurriedly changed her words.
"No. But it has nothing to do with that Shuzi!"
As soon as Cai Yan heard the words Ying Chengyu, she suddenly remembered a bamboo slip sent by Tingwei Mansion.
After applying trauma medicine to Li Si, he hurriedly brought the bamboo slips and handed them to Li Si.
"It was sent from Tingwei's Mansion, saying that they don't dare to make the decision and you must review it in person."
"Oh? That's strange. Did any big case happen today?" Li Si smiled and took it happily. Most of the time, he was happy to handle official duties.
"I haven't heard of any deaths." 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 in less than a day.
Li Si unfolded the bamboo slips and said, "The prison won't be full again..."
When he said the last word, Li Kapa paused.
Because he had opened the bamboo slips and saw the words written on the bamboo slips!
Tingwei's prison is really full.
It was still Ying Chengyu who he resented!
"Hehe, hehe, hehehe."
Li Siqian laughed out loud.
Most of the names of the prisoners mentioned above were familiar to him.
There is the son of a doctor, the brother of the imperial censor, a wealthy businessman from Chu, a school captain...
Although there are no direct descendants of Qian Shi or Liang Qian Shi, so many nobles gathered together form a force that even he, a court captain, cannot underestimate.
"Xijun, please prepare a bamboo hat for me."
Li Si knew that his three-day vacation was in vain on the first day.
With so many nobles, the officials in the Tingwei Mansion would definitely not dare to make the decision unless he was present in person.
"What do you want to do, husband?"
"How can I be on duty if I don't wear a hat like this?"
"Husband, didn't you receive His Majesty's permission to take a rest for these three days?"
Hugh?
The nobles have packed the imperial prison, so how can I take a break?!
Thinking of the companionship I promised to my wife, I broke my promise in the blink of an eye.
Tingwei's prison, which had just been emptied, was full again.
Li Si couldn't help but said in an angry voice, "Shu Zi mistook me!"
