"You actually dared to suggest that His Majesty must punish Gao Yao, and let him receive the same punishment as you! Who do you think you are? What do you think the Meng family is? Without His Majesty's favor, the Meng family is worthless! Aren't you doing this just to make others think that our Meng family is arrogant because of their achievements?"

Meng Tian was very clear about what happened today. From Qin Shi Huang's last order, it can be seen that Qin Shi Huang had already made up his mind. Today was just a formality. Gao Yao was definitely not dead. There must be Gao Yao's operation here, otherwise how could Qin Shi Huang order Gao Yao to completely recover the southern border? Gao Yao was much smarter than he thought. It was estimated that this plan had been arranged long before Hu Hai and Yi Xiaochuan entered the southern border. At the latest, it had to start from that time to achieve the current effect.

"Why? Gao wanted to harm me like that. Wouldn't Ying Zheng do us justice?"

"Snapped......"

In anger, Yi Xiaochuan did not even address him as His Majesty, but directly called Qin Shi Huang by his name, which frightened Meng Tian. He stepped forward and slapped Yi Xiaochuan to the ground again.

"Come here, lock Meng Yi in the courtyard. No one is allowed to see him or have contact with him without my order."

"Here"

"Meng Yi, from today on, you will be confined to your room to reflect on your mistakes. You are not allowed to go out without my order."

"Meng Tian, ​​let me go, let me go!!!"

At this time, Yi Xiaochuan was also struggling frantically, but how could he defeat a few of Meng Tian's personal soldiers? What's more, Yi Xiaochuan had just recovered from a serious illness, and his strength had dropped significantly. Moreover, this was the Meng family, so naturally, everything was decided by Meng Tian. In the end, Yi Xiaochuan was directly trapped in the yard. There were Meng Tian's personal soldiers guarding the door, and they didn't give Yi Xiaochuan any chance at all.

In Meng Tian's opinion, Yi Xiaochuan has become somewhat lawless. If Yi Xiaochuan was not Meng Yi, Meng Tian would have killed him by now. Now Yi Xiaochuan has become more and more unscrupulous. If he continues like this, what will happen to him in the future? He must be controlled no matter what.

At this time, Gao Yao had been invited to Li Si's residence, and Li Si ordered his servants to entertain Gao Yao well. Gao Yao's performance today really surprised Li Si. He originally thought that Gao Yao was just a military general. If it weren't for his merits and his ability to know when to advance and when to retreat, Gao Yao would not even be qualified to be used by him.

The normal result today would be that Gao Yao would be dismissed from his post and the Meng family would make a symbolic punishment. This would be the worst result. The best result would be what happened just now. Between the bad and the good, it was a question of performance between Gao Yao and Meng Yi. Judging from the results, there was no doubt that Gao Yao won by a large margin. Being able to perform to this extent, Gao Yao was undoubtedly superior in both political wisdom and ability.

There is another price to pay for this, which is the idea proposed by Gao Yao. This time, the move to completely recover the southern border will involve raising money and grain from the southern border independently, without spending any money from the court. This is what most moved Qin Shihuang in Gao Yao's suggestion, and it is also the key to Gao Yao's victory in this game.

"Lord Li Si, I feel so unworthy of your kindness."

"Haha, General Gao Yao, what are you talking about? Lord Gao Yao will become a general in the future. How can you treat him well?"

"Gao Yao understands that in this matter, it must be Lord Li Si who spoke well of me in front of Your Majesty. Gao Yao naturally understands what it means to repay a favor."

"Hahahaha...Come on, drink, drink. This is the fine wine I brought from your southern border. I wouldn't be willing to give it to anyone else."

"If Lord Li Si likes it, that would be great. I will order people to send some local specialties to the mansion every year."

"How can this be possible? What if outsiders find out?"

"My Lord, this is just my personal relationship with you, who would criticize it?"

"Hahahaha... Gao Yao, you are indeed an extraordinary person. You will definitely make a difference in the future of the Qin Empire."

"I will need your support in the future. I will never forget you."

After the banquet, it can be said that both the host and the guests were very happy, mainly because the two of them kept complimenting each other. By the time Gao Yao returned to the post station, the blush on his face had almost disappeared. In fact, Gao Yao had been deliberately holding back the blush. It was not until he settled down at the post station that he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason why we can have such a scene today is indeed the result of Gao Yao's full efforts to pave the way. First of all, on Li Si's side, the first thing Li Mo did after the incident was to explain everything that happened in the southern border to Li Si, and even sent gifts to Li Si's mansion.

There were conflicts between Li Si and Meng Tian, ​​especially with the appearance of Yi Xiaochuan. If Yi Xiaochuan had joined the army directly, it would have been fine, but Yi Xiaochuan entered the core of the court. Although his temporary position was not high, he had the support of the Meng family.

Because of the status of the Meng family, Meng Yi was valued and trusted by Qin Shihuang, which was a power grab for Li Si. Gao Yao handed this matter to Li Si and became a gun in Li Si's hand. At the same time, Li Si became a step in Gao Yao's plan.

The second is Hu Hai and the people he brought with him. How could Qin Shi Huang not have his own spies among them? The purpose of the two complementing each other is to let Qin Shi Huang know that Gao Ruo has people who are capable and dare to think and act. Such people are talents. Qin Shi Huang will naturally begin to have his own concerns.

Then there was the promise that Gao Yao could make, that he could do it, that he dared to do it, and that he had ready-made results in front of him. The most critical step was Zhao Tuo's letter and the letter that Gao Yao himself reported. Gao Yao was not really that kind-hearted, and what he said was the truth. With the above prerequisites, Zhao Tuo's letter became an act of shirking responsibility.

As for Zhao Tuo's actions and what happened during this period, it was obvious that Zhao Tuo was fooled. Hu Hai went to supervise the army this time, not to tour on behalf of Qin Shihuang. In addition, Zhao Tuo did not mention a word about the conflict between Zhao Tuo and Meng Yi, which instead became the reason for Qin Shihuang to increase his suspicion. Gao Yao's performance when being questioned finally contributed to the victory of this game.
