Han Qiu had just entered the residence when Cao Can reported,""Master, General Meng Tian has handed over a visiting card.”
The marquis's mansion inside the pass was very luxurious. There were as many as six palaces and pavilions. From a commoner to a prime minister, it was easy for Bai Lixi to change from frugality to extravagance, but it was difficult to change from extravagance to frugality.
Before Han Qiu could admire the luxurious layout of the manor, Meng Tian came to visit. Han Qiu also had something to ask Meng Tian.
Before Meng Tian returned to Xianyang, Li Si had told Han Qiu that he had found the name of Gao Yao in Meng Tian's military strategy. However, Li Si was not sure if the Gao Yao on the military strategy was the Gao Yao that Han Qiu was looking for.
Even if Meng Tian did not come, Han Qiu would still look for her...
……
"General Meng!" Han Qiu welcomed Meng Tian out of the manor. Even though she did not have much of a relationship with Meng Tian, it was better to appear familiar on the surface. After all, they were officials of the same dynasty…
"Meng Tian greets the Lord of the Pass." Before Meng Tian could finish her sentence, Han Qiu had already held her hand and entered the mansion.
After the two of them entered the main hall, a servant served them tea. Meng Tian pressed down on the teacup and went straight to the point,""Meng Tian has something she wants to ask the inner duke.”
"General Meng, what's the matter? Just say it!"
As soon as Han Qiu finished speaking, Meng Tian told Han Qiu about Gao Yao...
Gao Yao begged in Kuaiji Prefecture and was almost buried in a mass grave by the soldiers of the Great Qin Empire. He was lucky enough to survive and cured Meng Tian's illness. Meng Tian regarded him as a benefactor and he stayed in the military camp as a halberd doctor, returning to Xianyang with the army.
"Gao Yao has been searching for three people. Gao Lan, Han Qiu, and Yi Xiaochuan. Meng Tian, may I ask if you know Gao Yao?”
"Where is the high point? Gao Yao and I are old friends, so I naturally know him!”
When Meng Tian heard that Han Qiu knew Gao Yao, she sighed and almost buried the old friend of the Lord of the Pass.
However, Meng Tian also sighed at Gao Yao's good luck. Gao Yao actually knew the Inner Pass Marquis. The backer behind Gao Yao was actually the Inner Pass Marquis.
Fortunately, he had always treated people well, otherwise, he really didn't know how to face the Inner Pass Marquis.
……
In the court today, the Xuan paper and abacus displayed by the First Emperor shocked Meng Tian.
When he found out that these items came from the hands of the inner marquis, he knew that from now on, the inner marquis would become the most important minister of the First Emperor. The internal history of grain might just be the beginning!
Therefore, Meng Tian wanted to befriend Han Qiu. After all, it was better to have one more friend in the royal court than one more enemy!
"General Meng, where is Gao Yao?”
Gao Yao was really lucky to have met Meng Tian and not Yi Xiaochuan.
If Gao Yao had met Yi Xiaochuan, he would have definitely been tricked by Yi Xiaochuan, especially when Yi Xiaochuan had insisted on pulling Gao Yao along to lick Liu Bang's boots. In the end, the ungrateful Liu Bang had drunk Yi Xiaochuan and Gao Yao and sent them to the corvee to make up for the number of people…
Yi Xiaochuan was sent to the corvee and became Meng Yi!
Gao Yao was sent to the corvee and became a eunuch!
If Gao Yao was sent to the corvee, it would be hard for him to escape the pain of being cleansed!
"I'll send an armored soldier to summon Gao Yao," said Meng Tian.
"Thank you, General Meng."
……
Gao Yao served as a halberd doctor under Meng Tian and had a position. However, Gao Yao's physical fitness was relatively weak. When he marched, he followed the Cooks 'Army and busied himself with cooking.
After entering Xianyang, Gao Yao thought of a way to find Gao Lan and Han Qiu.
Although the general had promised to help him find Gao Lan's whereabouts, Gao Yao did not dare to ask for more. Meng Tian was a high and mighty general, while he was just a small doctor. He did not have the chance to meet the general again and again!
"Gao Yao! Gao Yao, is the vegetable jar full?”
There were four halberd doctors and three centurions in the courtyard where Gao Yao lived. They were all out fighting all year round and did not return home for two to three years. Their qualifications and official titles were much higher than Gao Yao's.
Although Gao Yao was also a halberd wielding doctor, halberd wielding doctors also had to share military merits! Gao Yao had never even been injured on the battlefield. Other than killing chickens, he had never even killed an enemy. Naturally, he would not have any military merits.
"Alright! Alright! It's marinated!" Gao Yao replied loudly, but he was carrying a few large pickles in his arms. These pickles were bought by the other centurions.
As Gao Yao walked into his room, he muttered softly," When we find Gao Lan, these grains will be enough to feed them for half a year. I wonder if they can even beg for food…"
After Gao Yao transmigrated to this world, he had been begging and even stripped the clothes of dead people. In his heart, Han Qiu and Yi Xiaochuan were not as shrewd as him. Perhaps they were living a worse life. Perhaps they could not beg for food and had to fight with wild dogs for food!
"This pile is for Gao Lan, this pile is for Han Qiu, and this pile is for Yi Xiaochuan.”There were three piles of food under Gao Yao's bed.
One big pile and two small piles.
One pile was for Gao Lan, while the other two were for Yi Xiaochuan and Han Qiu.
Among the food were salted vegetables, leftover biscuits, and even two pieces of venison that the general had given him. Gao Yao had always been reluctant to eat them. After marinating them, he placed them in Gao Lan's pile of food.
Some of the biscuits were already moldy, so Gao Yao placed the moldy biscuits in Han Qiu's and Yi Xiaochuan's small piles. The pile of food he left for Gao Lan was always the freshest and most abundant…
"Sister, you have to hold on until brother comes to find you!”The person Gao Yao was most worried about was Gao Lan. He had suffered a lot in this world. Many times, he had almost died, but he could not find Gao Lan. He told himself that he could not die and had to hold on.
He didn't want Gao Lan to suffer as well, but he couldn't find her now, and he didn't know where she was either…
……
Just as Gao Yao was secretly hiding the food, the sound of a carriage turning and a horse neighing could be heard outside the courtyard. Gao Yao hurriedly put down the bedsheet and hid the food inside!
"Greetings, Lieutenant General!"
"Greetings, Lieutenant General!"
"Where's Gao Yao?"
The general's voice rang out from outside the courtyard. Gao Yao became extremely nervous. Did the general find out about the food theft?
Zhonglang General Wang Li was Wang Jian's grandson. He was brave and good at fighting. He followed beside Meng Tian as a deputy general and was given the title of Zhonglang General!
Gao Yao was working under Wang Li…
Wang Li knew that Gao Yao liked to stay in the kitchen, but he didn't know why. In Wang Li's opinion, Gao Yao always stayed in the kitchen, which was a sign of his lack of ambition.
He did not know that Gao Yao liked to run into the kitchen because there was a lot of food in the kitchen. He wanted to steal some food and save it for his sister and Han Qiu…
"It's over! It's over, we've been discovered!"
" It's over, it's over, it's over!"
Gao Yao ran out of the house in a panic.
……
"Zhonglang General!"
Gao Yao and a group of halberd-wielding doctors stood outside the courtyard with their chests puffed out.
Cold sweat kept dripping down Gao Yao's forehead…
"Don't enter the house, don't enter the house! Don't enter the house!"
The Zhonglang General walked in front of Gao Yao and shouted loudly,"Gao Yao!"
"Yes!"
"Follow me!"
"Here!"
After Gao Yao replied, he felt that the situation was serious and asked,"Lieutenant General, can you let me go back to my room and tidy up…"
"Cut the crap, get on the horse! Follow me!" Wang Li ordered a military horse to be brought over. Gao Yao, who was at a loss, braced himself and mounted the horse. He turned to look at the house he was staying in. He didn't know if he could return after leaving this time.
"What exactly happened?"
Gao Yao guessed suspiciously in his heart…
Everyone else is fine, so why did you take me away?
Gao Yao sat on his horse and didn't dare to ask.
In his terror, Gao Yao followed Wang Li and Great Qin's soldiers to a luxurious palace.
"Dismount!"
"Here!"
Gao Yao raised his head. This palace-like mansion had a huge plaque. On the plaque were the words: "The Inner Marquis of the Pass!"
"My goodness, who lives here? It's like a golden palace…"
Gao Yao discovered that the manor was surrounded by Great Qin's armored soldiers, and the tall walls were difficult to climb over.
Wang Li walked in front, while Gao Yao followed closely behind and entered the manor!
After Gao Yao entered the Inner Pass Marquisdom, it was like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, an eye-opener!
Zhonglang General Wang Li walked in front, while Gao Yao followed behind him, constantly sizing up the majestic palaces.
"Is this the palace? Oh my god, so rich! Who lives here?"
Wang Li turned to look at Gao Yao and said,"This is the residence of the inner duke. When you see him later, don't speak nonsense.”
"Yes, yes!"
"Milord, what kind of official is the Lord of the Pass?”
"A high-ranking official, his title is even higher than General Meng Tian!”Although Wang Li's voice wasn't loud, it was enough to make Gao Yao's legs tremble.
"Lieutenant General, can I not go? Why did you ask me to come…"
"How would I know? I was only ordered to bring you here. When you see the Marquis Champion, don't play with your mouth and don't get yourself into trouble.”
"Yes, yes."
Gao Yao replied.
As Gao Yao sized up this majestic mansion, he was filled with fear…
His official position was even higher than Meng Tian's. How high was the position of the Marquis of the Inner Pass?
The huge manor was like a huge maze. The courtyards were shockingly large.
Gao Yao looked around as he walked. His mouth had never closed!
