As soon as the two of them left, Gao Yao walked up to Xiao Chuan.
"Little Chuan, why do you have another name? Why did General Meng call you Meng Yi?"
"Also, are you really Xiao Chuan?”
Xiao Chuan laughed and cried when he heard this.
"Of course I'm Little Chuan. As for Meng Yi, this is a long story. I'll tell you in detail in the future.”
Seeing that Xiao Chuan was evading, Gao Yao did not ask any more questions. He turned around and sat down to eat again.
As for Xiao Chuan, he wanted to explain to Gao Yao, but now was not the time. There were too many people.
Some things were better not to let too many people know.
Then, everyone began to eat. Xiao Chuan found an opportunity to talk about entering the palace the next day.
He and Gao Yao could go alone.
The others stayed behind.
No one had any objections to this, and the matter was settled.
After eating and drinking to their hearts 'content, everyone dispersed.
Xiao Chuan brought Yu Shu back to her room.
Only then did Yu Shu ask Xiao Chuan,""Husband, was that the commander of the Meng family army, General Meng Tian?”
Xiao Chuan nodded. He knew what Yu Shu wanted to ask.
"What about you? Are you General Meng's younger brother?”Yu Shu asked again.
Xiao Chuan nodded." I lost contact with him when we were young. We only reunited recently."”
"When the Xiongnu retreated, were you the one who asked General Meng to help?”
Xiao Chuan continued to nod." That's right. I had General Meng send the Meng family's army to attack the Xiongnu's main camp and burn their rations, weapons, and tents. Now, the Xiongnu army has probably retreated completely. Without three to five months, they won't dare to come to Tu 'an and wreak havoc at Great Qin's borders.”
Hearing this, Yu Shu calmed down.
Previously, she had been worried that the Xiongnu would send troops to attack Tu 'an again after she left.
Now, it seemed that Xiao Chuan had already calculated everything.
"Then husband will enter the palace tomorrow…" Yu Shu's meaning is obvious.
Xiao Chuan understood and continued," I'll take the opportunity to explain Tu An's matter to the First Emperor when I enter the palace tomorrow. I believe he will agree."”
Hearing this, Yu Shu put down the last bit of worry in her heart and immediately bowed to Xiao Chuan."Yu Shu thanks you on behalf of Tu An's people.”
Xiao Chuan pulled her up and pulled her into his arms."You're my woman. There's no need to be so polite.”
Hearing Xiao Chuan's overbearing words, Yu Shu's pretty face turned red. She said softly,""Yu Shu will serve husband for the rest of her life…"
……
It was already late at night, but Xianyang Palace was still brightly lit.
In Ying Zheng's palace, Fu Su arrived early and had a long talk with Ying Zheng.
"It's fragrant, glutinous, and delicious. It can be used as a staple food. It can produce 3,000 catties per mu.”
At this moment, Ying Zheng's mouth was wide open in surprise, as he looked at Fu Su in disbelief.
Fu Su nodded." Yes, Imperial Father. I didn't believe it when I first heard the news today. However, after seeing potatoes and sweet potatoes, I believe it."”
"Your son has made an appointment with the manager of the Fortune Pavilion. Tomorrow, I will enter the palace to meet Imperial Father. If Imperial Father has any doubts, feel free to ask him.”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng clenched his fists tightly, his tiger-like eyes shining brightly,""Hearing what you said, I really want to see who this manager of the Fortune Pavilion is.”
"Other than that, this person is also General Meng Tian's younger brother, Meng Yi. This time, General Meng was able to defeat the Xiongnu army, and he contributed a lot.”Fu Su said.
Hearing this, Ying Zheng was even more surprised. He stood up from the dragon throne and said,""Then I will reward him greatly tomorrow.”
……
Time flew by, and it was already the next day!
Hongfu Restaurant had posted a notice early in the morning that they would be resting for the day.
Many Xianyang citizens who wanted to come to Hongfu Restaurant had no choice but to leave.
Xiao Chuan had already arranged for Gao Yao to prepare everything.
He made some dishes with potatoes and sweet potatoes, then packed them up and waited for Fu Su and Meng Tian to arrive.
As expected, it was noon.
Su Mengtian's carriage had arrived.
He brought Xiao Chuan and Gao Yao to the Imperial Palace.
With Fu Su and Meng Tian leading the way, the carriage was unimpeded.
An hour later, the group of four arrived outside Ying Zheng's palace.
It was not the court.
After getting off the carriage, the four of them entered the palace.
It was Xiao Chuan and Gao Yao's first time in a place like this.
As they glanced at the solemn soldiers lined up on both sides, the two of them had different expressions.
Xiao Chuan was fine. He looked calm on the surface.
As for Gao Yao, he was a little frightened and didn't even know where to put his hands.
Soon, the four of them arrived outside the hall.
Following the eunuch's announcement, Qin Shi Huang summoned Young Master Su, General Meng Tian, Mister Xiao, and Mister Gao into the palace.
The four of them walked into the hall.
The huge hall was empty and quiet.
The marble pillars supporting the dome were carved with dragons and phoenixes.
A middle-aged man was sitting behind a table at the end of the red carpet.
His face was serious and he was not angry.
The domineering aura that he exuded was many times stronger than Fu Su's.
This man was none other than the Emperor of Qin, Ying Zheng.
The four of them stepped forward and bowed.
"Father, these two are Mister Xiao and Mister Gao.”Fu Su introduced.
Ying Zheng, who was reading the memorials, stopped what he was doing, slightly startled as he glanced at Xiao Chuan and Gao Yao.
It had to be said that Ying Zheng, who was known as the one emperor in history, was indeed extraordinary.
With a sweep of his gaze, a wave of pressure assaulted his face, making him have the urge to kneel down involuntarily.
Of course, Xiao Chuan, who was prepared, would not lose his composure.
On the other hand, Gao Yao's legs went weak.
Then, Ying Zheng went straight to the point and asked Xiao Chuan,""Mr. Xiao, the manager of the Fortune Pavilion is also the descendant of the Great Qin's loyal General Meng Wu?”
"Yes, Your Majesty." Xiao Chuan nodded calmly.”
"I heard that you have planted crops called potatoes and sweet potatoes, which can produce 3,000 catties per mu. Is that true?”Ying Zheng asked again.
