The night is intoxicating, and sometimes it is not an empty talk.
But more often than not, it’s just that the wine doesn’t intoxicate the person, but the person gets drunk on themselves.
Ying Ziyue turned and left, leaving only a faint fragrance in the air.
Ying Zige staggered back to the room as if he was drunk under the moonlight.
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, Ying Zige woke up early, washed up, and went to the Fucheng Hall to wait quietly.
According to the news from Luo Wang and the reminder from Lu Wu in the Consciousness Sea, Ying Zige knew that Meng Yi would arrive in Beiyuan City today, and after Meng Tian gave him a surprise, he couldn't wait to see the first person he had resurrected. Two generals, the first famous minister's grace.
What's more, Meng Yi is also related to Yingchuan, a place of stars, the future of Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai, two people from poor families, and to his deeper understanding of Hufu's abilities.
"Tap tap tap!"
It was three o'clock in the day, and Ying Zige, who had been waiting in the lobby for a long time, had already laid down on the table and fell asleep.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of extremely fast footsteps in his ears, and his spirits were lifted.
Shaking his head, Ying Zige quickly looked up.
The footsteps of the gatekeepers hurriedly appeared in his eyes.
"Report to my lord, Lord Meng Yi has arrived at the door and is asking for an audience!"
"Let him in!"
Although Ying Zige had been looking forward to it for a long time, he still tried his best to show an extremely indifferent expression on his face. He waved his hand casually and asked the gatekeepers to go out and summon him.
The soldier responded and turned to leave. Not long after, Ying Zige heard the sound of rustling footsteps in his ears.
He raised his head slightly and looked over.
The owner of the footsteps was a young man who looked to be in his twenties, dressed in snow-like white clothes, and had come a long way, decorated with the slightest bit of wind and frost.
The black hair on her shoulders was messy, and as soon as she came in, she knelt down in front of Ying Zige silently.
Looking up, there was a trace of regret and urgency in the deep eyes under a pair of handsome eyebrows.
"You're back? You're back!"
Ying Zige probed in plain words. He wanted to know how powerful the memory grant Lu Wu mentioned was.
A flash of pain flashed in Meng Yi's eyes, and he bowed his head without hesitation: "The sinner Meng Yi, come here to apologize!"
"Minister? Whose minister are you? Sin? What crime are you guilty of?"
Ying Zige's tone was indifferent, but he deliberately showed a hint of anger and indifference as he asked.
"The third young master is the only descendant of our Great Qin Zulong's legacy. Since he has inherited the position of king, he is naturally the king of the guilty minister."
"It is the first crime that I was not around when the Great Qin Legacy was alive and dead. It is the second crime that I was not around when the Great Qin Legacy expanded its territory and rebuilt its homeland." Meng Yi knelt on the ground, with a slight hint of emotion in his tone. He replied with a hint of trembling.
"Hehe! Hehe! Hehe! What a king, what a minister! What a big crime!" Ying Zige seemed to be affected at this time, laughed out loud, and then asked loudly.
"As a monarch and his ministers, since they are guilty, what do you think should be the crime?"
A hint of relief appeared in Meng Yi's eyes, and he replied calmly: "As a minister, if you can't be loyal, as a son, if you can't contribute, you should die..."
"Clang!"
Before Meng Yi could say anything, Ying Zige swept the pen and ink on the table to the ground and shouted loudly: "Death? So easy? The family is in trouble and countless elites are powerless. What can you do? So what if you are here? Fighting an army alone? If you are so capable, why did you leave home two years ago?"
Meng Yi lowered his head and whispered: "The guilty minister is guilty!"
"Huh, sin, you are guilty, but it is an even greater sin for you to seek death as soon as you come back. Our Great Qin legacy suffered a great disaster, and our heritage was greatly reduced. We finally took over the entire Beiyuan after many plots, thinking that we would have a safe place.
, but at this time, the internal affairs are in chaos, so there is no need to say more, right?"
Ying Zige had already verified what Lu Wu said about the power of the tiger talisman's memory. He felt chills in his heart. Such an ability to play with people's hearts could really only be used on resurrected people. What about himself?
The more he thought about it, the colder his heart became. He quickly interrupted his random thoughts and looked at Meng Yi coldly.
"No! The sinner accepts the order!"
Meng Yi raised his head and looked at Ying Zige, who was extremely cold but showed a trace of care in his eyes. The pair of deep eyes under his sword-shaped brows were slightly sour before he lowered his head and responded.
With Meng Yi's intelligence, he would not be completely controlled by Ying Zige, but his intelligence was limited and his mood was agitated.
With all this, based on the information Meng Yi received, he could only think that Ying Zige's various behaviors after coming in were actually just to comfort himself and not to blame himself too much for what happened before, and he would never think of Ying Zige.
Zi Ge is actually testing Hu Fu's ability.
Of course, for Ying Zige, he does have this meaning. After all, Meng Yi is the second general he has resurrected, and he is currently the only top internal affairs talent and civil servant adviser.
If he is full of self-blame and desire to die because of the memory given by Lu Wu, it will inevitably affect his abilities and even the development of the entire Great Qin legacy.
Therefore, while testing, Ying Zige deliberately combined the memories in his mind to set up this game.
Of course, from the current point of view, the effect is good.
Seeing Meng Yi's performance, Ying Zige nodded slightly and said calmly: "Okay, stand up and talk!"
"promise!"
Meng Yi responded, stood up slowly, swayed slightly, and stood in front of the table.
Tell me where you have been in the past two years, and why were you found in Yingchuan?"
Ying Zige deliberately pretended not to know, and seemingly brought up the topic of Yingchuan accidentally, waiting for Meng Yi's answer.
"Your Majesty, Yi Zi left home to study and first went to Luoyang. By chance, he met an elder brother and was invited by him to study at Yingchuan Academy."
"In the past two years, I have been in Yingchuan. It was not until I met Hei Fu by chance some time ago that I learned about a series of changes in my family, so I hurried back."
"Brother? Yingchuan Academy is a private school jointly funded by the Xun family, Zhong family and other Yingchuan families. It is difficult for ordinary people to get in. It seems that the background of any of your brothers is not simple!" Ying Zige seemed to be casual.
He answered.
"Your Majesty's guess is correct. The brother I met is none other than the eldest son of the Xun family in Yingchuan, Xun Yu..."
"How is this person?"
Ying Zige didn't wait for Meng Yi to finish speaking and asked directly. He could see that Meng Yi had realized his intention, and he was too lazy to pretend anymore and asked directly.
Meng Yi also replied decisively: "Wang Zuo is so talented."
After speaking, he hesitated for a moment, glanced at Ying Zige's expression, and then continued: "However, it is impossible for this person to surrender to us."
"Well! Keep talking."
Ying Zige nodded calmly, looked at Meng Yi and said calmly.
