In a house that is ten meters long and five meters wide, except for tables and cushions, there is no unnecessary debris.
Because Li Si has many children, this hall is specially used for meals.
There is a long table placed on the main table in the hall.
There are roast rabbit, green vegetables and other food on the long table. There are six dishes in total.
After the long case, Li Si and Cai Yan were sitting on their knees, eating together.
Under the main table, there are two rows of desks, one on the left and one on the right, with a total of four on each side.
There is a bowl of corn, a meat dish and a vegetarian dish on each table.
Behind the eight tables, children, boys and girls, were sitting. They were all Li Si's children.
The elders of the eight children ate on their own, while the younger ones were assisted by servants. The hall was quite lively.
"You, do you really want to join the army?"
Li Si chewed food and turned his head to ask his eldest son Li You, who was sitting at the head of the table on the right.
Li You's appearance only inherited half of Li Si's rigidity, and this half of his rigidity should be called perseverance.
The resolute Li You put down the tableware in his hands and faced Li Si to show respect for his father.
"Yes, Father, I want to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and expand my territory."
"Why do you think so? You can still make achievements in the court." Li Si asked seriously.
The Qin Dynasty governed the country by law, and the Qin Dynasty itself had a martial ethos.
Combining the two, Legalist disciples in the Qin Dynasty have been in a perennial shortage.
As long as you study the law, you will basically have a promising future in the Qin Dynasty.
As Li Si is the leader of today's Legalists, Li You has made some achievements in studying the Fa with him over the years.
As long as he continues, Li You's future will be extremely bright.
He couldn't figure out why his eldest son was going to join the army despite being so good.
Li You is fourteen years old this year and still has a youthful spirit.
He looked angry and even waved his hands to show his anger.
"Zhao Ling, Tu Shi, Ren Qi, and their group of people treat us with disdain every time they meet. They say, 'people who talk about things, wander around and despise the king.' I can't stand their humiliation. I want to join the army and tell you
They and I, Li You, are people who can kill the enemy bravely."
The people Li You mentioned are all descendants of military commanders in the Qin court.
"Your Majesty can rule the world, can it only rely on military generals to attack cities and plunder territories? When you go to the battlefield, your mother will be worried and worried about your safety, and she still doesn't know whether you can become a general. Why don't you practice with your father?
The daily achievements will definitely be higher than those of those young children."
"But even if I achieve the position of my father, Wang Ling and Tu Shi, they will still look down upon me. As long as I leave the mansion, no matter where I am, they will always be more respected than us. I don't want to be like this."
You said dullly.
The younger brothers and sisters in the hall were eating their meals and watching with wide eyes the conversation between their eldest brother and their father with curiosity, although most of them could not understand it.
"I don't allow you to join the army." Cai Yan was dissatisfied and said, "Can you become famous if you join the army? The parents of the people you mentioned were military generals, and they have been exposed to the art of war since they were young, just like you who have been reading the "Dharma Sutra" since you were a child.
"
"Does my mother also think that I am inferior to them?"
Because of his upbringing, Li You would not shout loudly at Li Si and Cai Yan.
But his clenched fists already showed his anger.
"That's not the case."
Li Si personally took a rabbit leg, stepped down from the throne and put it into Li You's bowl. He had high hopes for his eldest son and paid great attention to his teaching methods.
"Father, I also want rabbit legs."
"I want too."
"Mom~"
Seeing this, Cai Yan also stepped down from the throne to appease the greedy little ones.
Li Si sat next to Li You and said seriously: "Have you seen the children of the Meng family and the Wang family?"
"I've seen it." Li You clenched his fists tighter. "They don't even want to say a word to us. Their eyes are in the sky. You really want to rush up and beat them up."
Ahem~!
You may not be able to beat it.
Li Si choked twice and continued: "Meng Ao, Meng Wu, Meng Tian and others from the Meng family, Wang Jian, Wang Ben and his son from the Wang family are all generals who have been fighting on the battlefield. The children of the Meng and Wang families have been killed since they were young.
Teach you knowledge about sieges, field battles, ambushes, etc. But my father has never been on the battlefield. What I am teaching you is why our Qin State wants to reduce the death penalty and increase the number of prison sentences. They and you each have their own strengths. If you were born in Mongolia, Wang Liang
The family must be stronger than them."
"My father also thinks that I am not as good as them." Li You raised his neck, his face full of dissatisfaction and stubbornness.
It's all for nothing...
Li Si has a headache.
At this moment, a servant hurriedly ran into the hall, bowed to Li Si and said, "Master, there is someone from Tingwei Mansion."
"Call him in."
"only."
After a while, a small official wearing the official uniform of Tingwei Mansion ran in.
"Sir Tingwei, four people died on the balcony."
Qin Fa's murder was a serious crime, and basically he was sentenced to death without escape.
"Prepare the car."
Li Si's face turned solemn. Hearing this, he knew that there must be something fishy in this matter without even thinking about it.
Four people died, still on the balcony.
Those who enter the balcony are usually nobles. The balcony is an official place. Killing the nobles on the balcony is adding to the crime.
In this case, you can just drag him into the Tingwei Mansion and sentence him to death. Why do you come to find me?
How sensitive must be the identity of the murderer for Tingwei Mansion to invite me back?
Balcony, terrace.
The steward of the building almost died last night. The steward of the building has a close relationship with Lord Chang'an. If Lord Chang'an's identity is not simple...
"Is Chang'an Jun at the scene?" Li Si asked immediately.
"This incident happened because of Lord Chang'an," the petty official replied.
Sure enough, since it is related to Chang'an Jun...
"Sir, the car is ready." The servant reported.
"Don't worry, we'll wait outside."
The clerk was stunned.
Four people died on the balcony. Isn't this urgent? When Mr. Ting Wei Zheng urged me to come, I was almost dying of panic.
"Come with me and tell me everything you know."
"only."
Li Si led the clerk out of the hall and to the side room.
At this time, the culprit who stopped Li Si from trying the case in a hurry didn't even go to Tingwei's mansion.
Ying Chengqiao was humming a tune leisurely on Xianyang Street.
His cheerful appearance was in great contrast to the numb people in gray and black clothes around him.
He walked all the way back to Chang'an Jun's Mansion, opened the door, and was about to discuss countermeasures with the guests.
A beautiful maid came up to her, pointed to a house and said: "Your Majesty, we have guests."
"Bending less than 90 degrees, there are no rules or regulations, are you looking for a beating?"
Ying Chengyu looked at the maid's chest, and without asking who the guest was, he talked about the rules first.
"Your Majesty is all rosy and rosy. When I smell it, I just came back from the balcony. I won't let you see it! Huh!"
The maid raised her chin and covered her chest, humming.
"Do not pick wild flowers for domestic flowers."
"That's right, you are partial."
"I still want to take a peek, huh!"
The other maids also gathered around, talking all over the place.
When there were no guests, Ying Chengyu was surrounded by the maids and complained, which was normal in Chang'an Jun's Mansion.
"Your Majesty." The drunkard appeared out of nowhere, looking sober.
"It's rare that I'm not drunk today. Is there no wine left in the house?" Ying Chengyu said with a smile.
The drunkard's eyes, hazy with constant drunkenness, contained murderous intent, and he whispered to the house that the maid pointed to just now: "A visitor from Yongdi, do you want to kill him?"
