Before Fusu could open his mouth, Cheng Xiaoxiao whispered, "Ancestor, is this the carriage from the family of Left Prime Minister Li Si?"
Fusu nodded, "Yes."
Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at Fusu eagerly, "Can I see him?"
Fusu raised an eyebrow, "Want to see?"
Cheng Xiaoxiao nodded, "I want to see you."
Cheng Xiaoxiao thought to herself, "Of course I want to meet him. I want to see who this Li Si is, the man who made a mistake in history and whose name will be remembered for eternity."
"In that case, then let's meet!" Fusu instructed Qi Yuan, "Qi Yuan, go ask if the Prime Minister is on the carriage. If so, please invite him to the Wangchun Tower across the street for a chat."
"Yes." Qi Yuan responded.
After the carriage stopped, Qi Yuan walked towards the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Fusu and Cheng Xiaoxiao got off the carriage and went to Wangchun Tower.
Qi Yuan walked up to the carriage, looking condescending. "Excuse me, is the person inside the carriage Lord Left Prime Minister?"
The driver was about to answer when a hand lifted the curtain, revealing a somewhat old face.
"It is I," Li Si asked, "but what are your instructions, Young Master?"
Qi Yuan bowed slightly and said, "I, your humble servant, follow the order of the eldest son and invite the Prime Minister to come to Wangchun Tower for a chat."
Li Si hesitated for a moment and then nodded, "Please ask Secretary Qi to lead the way."
"Please!" Qi Yuan waited until Li Si got off the carriage before taking him to Wangchun Tower.
The top-notch box in Wangchun Tower.
"Knock knock!" Qi Yuan knocked on the door. "Master, the person has been brought here."
Fusu's gentle voice came from the box, "Please come in, Prime Minister!"
"Yes." Qi Yuan pushed open the door, "Prime Minister, please come in."
After Li Simai stepped into the box, Qi Yuan closed the door and stood guard at the door to prevent anyone from eavesdropping.
As soon as Li Si entered the room, he saw that in addition to Fusu, there was also a woman in the room whom he had never seen before.
He couldn't help but frown, thinking to himself, "How can the eldest son be worthy of my daughter if he behaves like this?"
When Cheng Xiaoxiao looked over, she saw that Li Si, who was walking towards her, had white hair and beard, a few wrinkles on his face, and even a deep mark between his eyebrows. It was obvious that he was worried a lot.
When Fusu saw Li Si, he immediately stood up and saluted, "My son-in-law greets my father-in-law."
Cheng Xiaoxiao was eating melons online: WTF! This guy is actually Fusu's father-in-law? Fusu married his daughter?
This is a shocking melon! And it’s definitely cooked!!!
Li Si returned the greeting, "My Lord, you have embarrassed me."
"Please sit down, father-in-law." Fusu smiled and invited Li Si to sit down.
After Li Si sat down, he secretly looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao.
"What is the relationship between this girl and Fusu?"
"Why would you ride in the same carriage with Fusu, a man and a woman?"
"Could it be... Fusu's new love?"
Li Si curled his lips and said, "She's not even as pretty as my daughter. I don't know what Fusu likes about her."
"It seems... I have to find a way to inform my daughter, so as not to lose the eldest master's heart!"
Cheng Xiaoxiao was also looking at Li Si.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was puzzled. "From his appearance, he doesn't look like a wicked person. How could he be persuaded by Zhao Gao to tamper with the Emperor's will?"
"Besides, isn't Fusu his son-in-law? Wouldn't it be better to support Fusu directly? Why did he have to support that idiot Hu Hai? Otherwise, our brother Zheng's Qin wouldn't have perished in the second generation."
Cheng Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and a good idea popped into her mind.
"Mianmian." Cheng Xiaoxiao said to Cheng Mianmian in her heart, "Can you give our ancestor a golden finger similar to mind reading, so that he can hear what old man Li Si is thinking at any time?"
Cheng Mianmian replied, "Sure, but it's a bit troublesome. Master, do you want it now?"
"No need, wait until I ask the ancestors for their opinion."
"I understand, Master." Cheng Mianmian said, "Then I will first set up a formation in Li Si's mind. When the time comes, as long as the ancestor agrees, I will activate this formation and the ancestor will be able to hear Li Si's inner voice."
Cheng Xiaoxiao asked worriedly, "Will he hear what our ancestor is thinking?"
Cheng Mianmian shook her head, "No, Master, this formation is one-way."
"Also, what's in Li Si's mind is the sub-formation, while the one our ancestors have is the mother formation. The mother formation can hear the thoughts of all those who possess the sub-formation, but the sub-formation cannot."
Cheng Xiaoxiao: "Then I feel relieved."
At this time, Li Si was trying to find out why Hu Hai died.
Li Si looked at Fusu and asked, "Did Prince Hu Hai really suffer from an incurable disease and pass away?"
Fusu lied with his eyes wide open, "Yes, that day my father sent an urgent decree saying that my eighteenth brother had contracted some kind of rabies and asked me to bring him back quickly for the imperial physician to see."
Cheng Xiaoxiao: "..." Are you still the Fusu I know? Your character is broken!!!
"But who would have thought... Alas!" Fusu sighed, "Just the sound of a palace servant pouring tea would drive my eighteenth brother crazy."
Fusu's eyes were filled with fear. "I've never seen my eighteenth brother like this before. The guards at the Black Ice Platform had no choice but to knock him out. Father ordered the imperial physician to treat him, and he died that night..."
Fusu's eyes were red, his fists were clenched, and he lowered his head. (Don't get me wrong, he was angry.) "It's a pity that my eighteenth brother died young..."
Cheng Xiaoxiao: "..." Wow, the emotions come out so easily? Awesome!
When Li Si saw Fusu like this, he immediately believed it.
After all, Fusu has always been an upright person and disdains to lie, so Li Si did not doubt anything that came out of his mouth.
Li Si stood up and said, "Young Master, please accept my condolences. The deceased is gone, and we should cherish the present."
Fusu waved his hand at him and said, "Father-in-law, Fusu is fine, it's just..."
"Forget it, father-in-law, please leave first! Let me take it easy on myself."
Li Si remained silent and bowed to take his leave.
After he came out of the box, Fusu immediately calmed down and raised his head, his face no longer showing the grief he had before.
Perhaps Fusu, who had not been baptized by "Lun Yu", would indeed be sad and feel regretful.
But how could Fusu, who had experienced it, do that?
Although those remarks were somewhat violent, they did make some sense.
When Fusu heard his own end, he naturally felt hatred in his heart.
How could there not be?
After all, he is still a flesh-and-blood person.
Cheng Xiaoxiao gave Fusu a thumbs up and said, "Ancestor, your acting skills are amazing!"
"I think that old fellow Li Si must have been frightened by you."
Fusu: "..." For a moment, I didn't know whether you were praising me or insulting me.
The two men waited until the carriage from the Prime Minister's Mansion disappeared before getting back on the carriage and heading towards Xianyang Palace.
In the carriage, neither Cheng Xiaoxiao nor Fusu spoke, and it was unknown what they were thinking about...
