After Zhao Gao and Wei Qi left, the First Emperor's expression darkened.
"This time, Meng Tian and Fu Su have indeed gone overboard.”
"Let's settle these potatoes properly first. When the court session starts tomorrow, Yi Xiaochuan, hmph.”
......
After leaving Zhangtai Palace, Wei Qi waved at a young eunuch not far away.
When the young eunuch came closer, Wei Qi ordered,""Send the things you prepared to Lord Zhao's residence. Remember to be careful and not be negligent.”
The young eunuch made a solemn promise, bowed, and then quickly ran out.
"Lord Zhao, after you." After the eunuch left, Wei Qi said in a low voice.
Zhao Gao smiled and walked away.
After they were far away from Zhangtai Palace, Wei Qi hurriedly bowed and thanked,"Thank you, Lord Zhao."
As he spoke, Wei Qi took out his hand from his sleeve and quietly handed the bag to Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao smiled indifferently and took it over, putting it into his sleeve.
This small amount of money naturally did not enter Zhao Gao's eyes. However, there was a certain level of knowledge involved.
Accepting it didn't mean that he acknowledged it. However, if he didn't accept it, it would make others feel that he was deliberately distancing himself.
This time, he had helped Wei Qi to take the position of Chief Eunuch. Naturally, he wanted Wei Qi to help him with some things.
Soon, he would leave Xianyang City.
The imperial palace was the center of Great Qin, and while he was away, someone had to help him keep an eye on the imperial palace.
Reality also proved that when Zhao Gao returned from the north, he felt a little glad for what he had done today. Of course, this was something that would happen later.
Not long after, Zhao Gao and Wei Qi arrived at the Imperial Physician Palace.
Under Zhao Gao's control, his injuries were neither serious nor light.
An old imperial physician examined Zhao Gao and gave him some medicine. He told Zhao Gao to take the medicine on time and that he would recover completely in a month at most.
After leaving the Hall of Supreme Healing, Zhao Gao looked at Wei Qi and said in a low voice,""Go back and serve His Majesty. Three days later, come to my mansion.”
Although Wei Qi was puzzled, he did not dare to ask further. He hurriedly nodded and headed in the direction of Zhangtai Palace.
Zhao Gao didn't leave the Imperial Palace immediately. Instead, he pondered for a moment before walking toward Concubine Li's Palace.
Consort Li Palace.
It was the palace of the Emperor's beloved concubine, Consort Li.
In the process of unifying the six countries, the First Emperor would build a palace in the imperial city corresponding to each country he destroyed. Then, he would take in all the beauties of that country.
Just the number of concubines taken in by the First Emperor alone was as many as five thousand.
This did not include those who were slightly inferior in appearance and temperament being used as palace maids.
Among them, only those who were favored by the First Emperor could stay in the Xianyang Palace.
Currently, there were only about twenty concubines in the palace.
Among these twenty people, the princess from Tu 'an Kingdom, Princess Yu Shu, who was now Consort Li, was the most favored by the First Emperor.
It was not an exaggeration to use Bai Juyi's Song of Everlasting Regret to describe Consort Li's status.
In the past, the reason why Zhao Gao was able to rise so quickly was not only because of himself, but also because of Consort Li.
First, he catered to her preferences and made this Consort Yu Shuli finally open her mouth to eat. The First Emperor was very happy and became the head of the imperial kitchen.
After that, there was the theft of the luminous pearl. Consort Li spoke to the First Emperor and was promoted from the head of the imperial kitchen to the head eunuch.
However, Consort Li and Yi Xiaochuan were in love. If today's matter were to spread to Consort Li's palace, Consort Li would probably resent him.
It was not a big deal for him, but there was another person in Consort Li's palace, Xiao Yue.
Perhaps it was because of the obsession of the original Zhao Gao, or perhaps it was because of some other reason, he could not let go of Xiao Yue.
Since he couldn't let go, then he naturally had to make a trip to Consort Li's palace.
At that moment, a group of soldiers was standing guard at the entrance to the passageway closest to Consort Li Palace. Yi Xiaochuan was pacing back and forth, his gaze occasionally glancing in the direction of Consort Li Palace as if he was waiting for something.
"Hehe, General Yi is really loyal to his duty.”
At this moment, a faint voice came from not far away.
Upon hearing this familiar voice, Yi Xiaochuan's expression instantly turned cold.
Turning around, Yi Xiaochuan said in a deep voice,""Zhao Gao, what are you doing here?”
