Chapter 98: Is the First Emperor playing a big game?
Until Ying Yuan left the palace, he still hadn't received a suitable answer.

Because Wang Jian felt that this matter needed to be discussed carefully by three generations of their family.

However, when this was said, a group of people were eating roasted lamb.

Ying Yuan was amused when he saw the three muscular men of the Wang family slicing meat with small knives in their hands and grinning as they said they wanted to have a good "discuss".

If it wasn't inconvenient, he really wanted to stay in the palace to see how the three generations of strong men in the Wang family "discussed"!

That action and that scene must be very exciting.

What a pity! It’s so inconvenient!
When Long Qie came out of the palace, he was still burping, which made Ying Yuan extremely speechless.

"Long Qie, I have never neglected your food in the past!"

"How come you look like a starving ghost when you come to the palace to have a meal?"

"You're making me lose face by doing this!"

After hearing what Ying Yuan said, Long Qie looked at Ying Yuan with great grievance.

"Sir, when we were at home before, we didn't have such delicious roast lamb!"

Ying Yuan was stunned by these straightforward words, and then looked at Long Qie with a resentful expression.

"what is it now?"

"Then who can blame you?"

"Didn't you hear it while you were eating?"

"I have repeatedly told that old man Wang Jian to give me the barbecue recipe, but he won't give in!"

"Tell me, what can I do?"

Long Qie smacked his lips, scratched his head, and dejectedly rushed to catch the carriage.

For a foodie like him, it was undoubtedly a deep pain to have eaten a delicious dish but then be told that he would not be able to eat it anymore.

Looking at Long Qie who had a look of regret on his face, Ying Yuan turned around and glanced at the palace which was gradually moving away.

"Although I didn't get the barbecue recipe, I didn't miss out on other benefits!"

……

The next day, in Qilin Hall.

As soon as Ying Yuan walked in, he found a different place.

The screen that originally stood in a corner of the hall disappeared.

This made Ying Yuan frown slightly!
what's wrong?

He didn't think that his workaholic father would be absent from work without reason.

Just when Ying Yuan was about to get up and find someone to ask, an old man with a slightly hunched figure suddenly walked up to Ying Yuan and bowed reluctantly.

"Song Li meets His Highness!"

"Huh? Lao Song?! You are Lao Song!"

Only then did Ying Yuan match the person opposite him with someone in his memory.

When the official named Lao Song saw that Ying Yuan recognized him at the first moment, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, as if he was smiling.

But if you don't look closely, you can't even notice the extent of that smile.

After regaining his previous calm expression, Song Li spoke softly.

"Your Highness, His Majesty has ordered that from now on, you will be solely responsible for the duties of Regent!"

"He's tired, so this is a good time for him to recuperate!"

Ying Yuan's eyes suddenly shrank, and he no longer had the smiling look he had just had. Instead, he looked at Song Lidao with a sharp look.

"I remember that I saw you beside my father when I was six years old."

"You were the Imperial Secretary at that time, but my father said that you were the Imperial Secretary he valued the most."

"But it's only been ten years, why have you changed so much?"

"Also, what is your current official position?"

Song Li looked at Ying Yuan in surprise.

Obviously, he didn't expect that Ying Yuan could remember every single thing from his childhood so clearly.

"Your Highness, I am still the Imperial Secretary!" "As for the change in appearance, it is just that my body has not been strong in recent years."

Ying Yuan understood.

This Song Li is obviously the most trusted man in his father's family.

This kind of person may not be noticeable.

But he is definitely his confidant, someone he trusts deeply.

It’s just... Ying Yuan was thinking about something.

"What happened that made Father want to transfer out his old hands?"

'This Song Li was obviously either assigned to a certain task for many years, or was arranged to recuperate after being injured.'

"Whichever possibility it is, it obviously means that something big has happened to my father!"

'To the point that he didn't trust the people around him at all, and only believed in the old people who had been with him for many years! '

After figuring this out, Ying Yuan smiled and nodded at Song Li.

"Well, in that case, I'll trouble you, Old Song!"

"Go back and accompany your father. I will visit him later!"

Song Li wanted to say something when he heard this, but Ying Yuan spoke before he could.

"I know that in all likelihood, Father will ask you to tell him that he is fine and that I don't need to worry about it."

"But you have known me for many years!"

"You should know that when I was just an ordinary young man, I always did what I wanted."

"Now that I am the regent, why would I care about these things?"

"So, you might as well go and tell my father as soon as possible, so that I don't have to lead a large army to attack the palace just to see my father!"

When Ying Yuan said this, Song Li, who had originally had no expression on his face, was stunned.

What the hell?

Leading troops to attack the palace just to see the First Emperor?
Are you a filial and powerful person or a lawless person?

Why is it that Mr. Yu, who has been dishonest since childhood, always behaves in unexpected ways?
However, these matters were not something that Song Li, a Zhongshu Yezhe who had not been promoted for many years, could get involved in.

No matter how trusted he is, he is still just an outsider.

It was obviously not something he could interfere in the affairs between the First Emperor and Ying Yuan, the Prince Regent.

Song Li figured it out, bowed deeply and politely, then turned and left.

Looking at Song Li's departing back, Ying Yuan instinctively felt something was wrong.

It seems that this Zhongshu Yeshi, whom the emperor trusted deeply, left too easily?
These thoughts suddenly appeared in Ying Yuan's mind.

But he didn't have time to think about these things for the time being.

Because the court meeting is about to begin.

After accepting the worship of all the officials, Ying Yuan originally thought that today was just a formality, handling some daily affairs.

He has now begun to think about the content of the conversation he will have with his father later.

But he never expected that the court meeting had just begun and he would get a big surprise.

The son of the former Left Prime Minister Feng Quji, Zhongshu Yeshi Feng Jie, suddenly stood up and spoke loudly.

"Prince Regent, please report that your servant Feng Jie impeaches General Wang Jian for disregarding the people's livelihood and embezzling and misappropriating the funds of the Qin Empire!"

puff……

It's no exaggeration. When Ying Yuan heard Feng Jie's impeachment, he really burst out laughing on the spot.

What?
Impeach Wang Jian?

And what is the crime?

Ignoring people’s livelihood?

What is this? !
