Chapter 69: Our friendship!

The housekeeper forced a smile and agreed to the guests' second request, exchanging one person for all the prostitutes.
Amid the guests' wild laughter , the housekeeper said she would go back to her room to wash and dress herself.
The guests laughed lasciviously and said that they would be naked in a while anyway, so there was no need for this.
The housekeeper still insisted on going upstairs.
After a cup of tea, the housekeeper still hadn't come downstairs.
Under the impatient urging of the guests, a beautiful woman went to find the housekeeper.
When I pushed open the door, I found a pool of blood on the ground. The housekeeper had fainted on the ground and had committed suicide by cutting her wrists.
In the room.
The rest of the beauties were taken away by the oval-faced beauty, leaving only the female steward and Ying Chengjiao.
Before this, Ying Chengjiao only knew that the housekeeper committed suicide by cutting her wrists, but he didn't know the reason. Now, everything is finally clear.
"Master Jun, you actually have so much money." The housekeeper said with stars in her eyes.
Although she was physically weak, her mental state was excellent.
Her biggest worry was the fear of being sentenced to prison and being insulted, and these two reasons ultimately came down to her lack of money.
When Ying Chengjiao placed hundreds of gold coins next to her, her heart knot was untied, and that was the reason why she was able to wake up.
"Even though you were unconscious, you still knew that I left hundreds of gold coins next to you. You are really a money-grubber." Ying Chengjiao smiled and touched the housekeeper's snow-white neck.
Seeing that Ying Chengjiao seemed to be in a good mood, the female steward was just about to say a few flattering words.
The next second, she felt a numbness on the back of her neck, and then her eyes went dark and she lost consciousness.
Ying Chengjiao withdrew his hand, the smile on his face disappeared, and he looked angrily at the female manager who lowered her head in front of him.
Less than three breaths passed.
The female manager who had been knocked unconscious by Ying Chengjiao's precise acupuncture points actually opened her eyes.
But the look in her eyes was completely different from that of the charming, graceful, and charming female steward.
When he didn't see Ying Chengjiao, there was only indifference in his eyes, indifference to the lives of others, indifference to his own life.
She raised her head, and when she saw Ying Chengjiao's face, the expression in her eyes changed instantly.
A drop of extremely black ink called reverence falls into a bowl of clear water called indifference.
In an instant, the water in the bowl turned completely black.
"Greetings, sir!"
Looking at Ying Chengjiao's handsome face with anger so close to her, the housekeeper moved back, but there was a wall behind her and she couldn't break through it.
So she curled up into a ball, hugging her legs, and rubbed her buttocks against the head of the bed.
Then she held the pillow in her arms and sat there like a ball.
Ying Chengjiao suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "What are you doing?"
The female steward whispered, "Article 18 of the Secret Guard Code states that female members of the Secret Guard are not allowed to have close contact with the young master."
Ying Chengjiao was so angry that he laughed.
The female steward pulled the quilt over her body with her small hands and said confidently, "The one who had sex with the young master was the steward of the tower. What does it have to do with my secret guard Qingmei?"
Supreme Court.
After the court meeting, Li Si returned to the Supreme Court to work - his work attitude was always very high.
After he had handled just three cases, a minor official from the Supreme Court brought his servant before him.
"Master, there is a eunuch who calls himself Zhao Gao visiting your home."
Your Majesty sent Zhao Gao to visit! Your Majesty has not given up on me!
"Prepare the car!"
Li Si ran away without even having time to sort out the files on the long desk, with a look of joy on his stern face.
The officials of the Supreme Court had seen this kind of expression on Li Si's face before.
Li Mansion.
A carriage stopped in front of the door.
Li Si lifted the curtain of the carriage and got off in a hurry.
"Brother Zhao."
When Li Si met Zhao Gao, this time he did not call him "Zhao Chariot Officer" but called him "Brother Zhao", which made the two of them seem much closer.
What Zhao Gao was best at was guessing the emperor's intentions. He could naturally see through Li Si's little thoughts, so he responded with a comment.
" Brother Li."
The two men laughed and sat down as host and guest.
Li Si ordered his servants to prepare tea quickly.
The two chatted casually for a while and reiterated their revolutionary friendship as door gods in the palace last time.
Of course, during their conversation this time, there was no mention of "stop people from entering the palace" or "anyone who enters without permission will be killed" or anything like that.
Soon, the servants respectfully served tea and filled the two's cups before leaving.
Zhao Gao saw this scene and said with emotion: "I have been serving Your Majesty all these years. Today, I have experienced the feeling of being served by Brother Li."
Li Si sat back on the brown hardwood chair and said with envy: "Brother Zhao is deeply trusted by His Majesty. I don't know how many people envy him. If you want someone to serve you, you can get someone to serve you. But I want to serve His Majesty but I can't."
Zhao Gao laughed, picked up the teacup, blew away the hot steam, took a sip and said self-deprecatingly: "Is a disabled person worthy of envy?"
Li Si said sternly, "Mencius said, 'When Heaven is about to confer a great responsibility on a man, it will first test his mind and will, exhaust his muscles and bones, starve his body, deprive him of all want, and make his plans frustrated. This is to stimulate his mind and harden his nature, and to enable him to do what he was not capable of before."
"This sentence means that when God wants to give a person an important task, he will first sharpen his will and train his muscles and bones, making him hungry and empty, so that his actions and plans cannot succeed. The purpose of doing this is to train his mind and character, so as to increase his abilities that he originally did not have. Brother Zhao, don't belittle yourself. God has destined you to do a great thing."
After listening to what Li Si said, Zhao Gao muttered to himself while holding his teacup: "Is it a big deal?"
After saying these three words, Zhao Gao laughed and seemed to be in a good mood.
"If Xunzi knew that you quoted Mencius' words to comfort me, I'm afraid he would expel you from his school."
"My master has no prejudice against any school of thought." Li Si said with a smile, but a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes.
Zhao Gao exclaimed in admiration: "Xunzi is truly a man of high integrity."
The two chatted and laughed for a while, and Zhao Gao looked around to see if there was anyone around.
He leaned his head over, as if he wanted to say something to Li Si, but was afraid that outsiders would overhear.
Li Si's heart skipped a beat.
Zhao Gao is Your Majesty's confidant. What he knows and can tell me must have been instructed by Your Majesty!
I cannot hide my excitement. When Zhao Gao returns, all my actions will be reported to Your Majesty truthfully.
When His Majesty knows my attitude towards his orders, if he feels a little more favorable towards me, it will be a win.
So he leaned over with excitement.
"A few days ago, a decree to be issued was stained with blood, so His Majesty ordered me to re-copy it. That blood was left by Brother Li, right?"
Li Si's heart was pounding.
This time he tried desperately to hide his emotions, but he couldn't hide them at all!
He felt cold all over, his whole body was icy cold, and his eyes were filled with fear.
Anyone who peeks at the imperial edict will have his entire clan exterminated!
