This action could be called disrespectful.

Prime Minister Li Si immediately stood out and looked at Yi Xiaochuan in a strange tone, "Doctor Yi, why can't you even hold a wine glass?"

Many people saw Yi Xiaochuan for the first time, but Li Si did not.

In fact, before this banquet, he had heard of Yi Xiaochuan.

The cause of everything was the Juxian Hall established by Young Master Fu Su; Fu Su wanted to imitate Lord Mengchang and recruit talents from all over the world; his idea was good, but he didn't know that this move deeply stimulated the other Young Masters.

It must be known that although Fu Su was the eldest son of the Emperor, the Qin Emperor of this world had not yet established a Crown Prince, which undoubtedly gave other Young Masters some opportunities, among which the Eighteenth Young Master Hu Hai had the greatest ambition.

In this space-time, long after Gao Yao changed his name to Zhao Gao and attached himself to Hu Hai, Prime Minister Li Si had long been unclear with Hu Hai in secret.

Behind Hu Hai was Li Si, and behind Fu Su was Meng Tian.

This is a balance.

Fu Su established the Juxian Hall, and his reputation soared, naturally making Hu Hai dissatisfied.

For some time, Li Si had been secretly thinking of ways to attack the Juxian Hall; naturally, those talents in the Juxian Hall were also paid attention to by him, among which Yi Xiaochuan was the most famous.

Although Yi Xiaochuan did not stay in the Juxian Hall for a long time, and then indulged in alcohol again because of Liu Bang's death, but in this short time, because of Yi Xiaochuan's little cleverness, it was enough to make him famous in the Juxian Hall and then walk into many people's eyes.

Li Si's words made the eyes of many ministers fall on Yi Xiaochuan's face.

Ying Zheng also looked at Yi Xiaochuan with some interest; he could naturally hear the targeting in Li Si's words, and he even knew why Li Si targeted Yi Xiaochuan.

With Su Xuan, there were no secrets in this world that could be hidden from him.

Especially from the mouth of Gao Yao, a person of later generations, he knew the truth of the destruction of the Qin Guo, which stemmed from Zhao Gao and Li Si tampering with his edict; because of this reason, he paid attention to Hu Hai and Li Si early on.

Naturally, he knew about the collusion between Hu Hai and Li Si.

After the Juxian Hall incident, Ying Zheng also wanted to see how these two would respond.

Yi Xiaochuan also came back to his senses; his brain kept running, and in the end, he really thought of a set of wording, "Please Your Majesty's forgiveness, the commoner is just a commoner; today I have the honor to attend the banquet in this imperial palace hall, and after seeing the Emperor's heavenly power, I am already terrified, how dare I drink the wine toasted by the Empress."

This statement made Ying Zheng feel more and more interesting.

He thought Yi Xiaochuan was a fool, but he didn't expect that Yi Xiaochuan, like Gao Yao, these two people from later generations, were quite good at flattering people.

Yi Xiaochuan had said such words, so Ying Zheng naturally had to give him face and said, "My power covers the world, and my voice shakes the nine states; it would be strange if you were not in awe!"

The Emperor had said this, proving that he did not blame Yi Xiaochuan for the falling of the wine glass.

Li Si naturally could not make trouble again.

The banquet continued; Ying Zheng spoke again and mentioned a matter, "The two doctors saved my favorite concubine; that day, Doctor Cui Wenzi had already accepted my appointment and became the Imperial Physician; Doctor Yi left without saying goodbye after receiving the reward; I thought I would have no chance to see Doctor Yi again, but I didn't expect that Doctor Yi recently successfully made my favorite concubine smile."

"Doctor Yi, stay in the palace and serve as an Imperial Physician!"

How could Yi Xiaochuan understand medical skills? Being able to cure Yushu that day was all thanks to Cui Wenzi's help.

Cui Wenzi serving as Imperial Physician could be considered a professional match.

Although Yi Xiaochuan knew that staying in the palace would give him a chance to see Yushu, he did not dare to rashly accept this appointment; if he revealed his flaws one day, Ying Zheng could execute him at any time.

Yi Xiaochuan was about to refuse.

Just at this time, Meng Tian, who was sitting near Yi Xiaochuan, took the initiative to stand out, "Meng Tian has something to report to Your Majesty!"

"What is it?"

"Your Majesty should know that I once had a younger brother who went missing when he was very young." Meng Tian said to Ying Zheng.

The Meng family had served the Qin Guo a long time ago; when Meng Tian was young, he was Ying Zheng's companion, and the two had a close relationship, so Ying Zheng also knew a little about the Meng family's affairs.

Ying Zheng flipped through Meng Tian's memory a little and remembered this matter.

"It is true; I don't know why you mention this, my beloved minister?"

Meng Tian gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, Yi Xiaochuan is my biological younger brother Meng Yi who has been missing for many years!"

"What?"

As soon as these words came out, many ministers were shocked.

Li Si's gaze towards Yi Xiaochuan was also different.

He didn't expect Yi Xiaochuan to be Meng Tian's younger brother; in this way, it was not strange that Yi Xiaochuan would join the Juxian Hall; after all, the Juxian Hall was Meng Tian's handiwork.

Earlier, he was still thinking about defeating the Juxian Hall and then recruiting Yi Xiaochuan; if Yi Xiaochuan was Meng Tian's younger brother, I am afraid he could not recruit Yi Xiaochuan.

The other ministers also looked at Yi Xiaochuan with strange eyes.

After Wang Jian retired and Wang Ben retired, although Wang Ben's son Wang Li still served in the army, Wang Li could only be considered a tiger father with a dog son; now in the court, the new nobles in the army were the Meng family.

Meng Tian was known as the first god of war in the Qin Guo and was the number one person in the Qin army today.

Yi Xiaochuan being Meng Tian's younger brother represented a very high starting point and a very noble status.

Ying Zheng was silent for a while and came back to his senses, "If Yi Xiaochuan is really Meng's beloved minister's younger brother, then the position of Imperial Physician is indeed not suitable for him."

He asked Meng Tian again, "Does your younger brother know martial arts?"

Meng Tian said confidently 523, "Meng Yi's bravery is no less than mine!"

"Good!" Ying Zheng nodded, "Yi Xiaochuan, since you are Meng Tian's beloved minister's younger brother and come from the Meng family, then serve as a Langwei in the palace."

Yi Xiaochuan was about to refuse; just at this time, he felt Yushu's gaze; Yushu was asking him to agree to this matter.

Yi Xiaochuan suddenly realized.

Yes, serving as a Langwei and staying in the palace would give him a chance to see Yushu at any time.

Thus, Yi Xiaochuan immediately agreed to this matter and officially became a Langwei guarding the imperial palace.

A banquet came to an end.

After the banquet, the Jade Beauty Yushu, who was pulled out by Ying Zheng to show affection, was sent back to the cold palace.

Ying Zheng went to Su Xuan's place and sighed to Su Xuan, "I didn't expect Yi Xiaochuan to be Meng Tian's younger brother; he is clearly a time traveler from later generations."

"Does Your Majesty remember that I said at the beginning that Yi Xiaochuan and Gao Yao coming to this world is not a variable, but a fixed number; this is the fixed number!"

Ying Zheng showed a thoughtful look.

After the relevant thoughts flashed through his mind, Ying Zheng said again, "However, this gives me an excellent opportunity to keep Yi Xiaochuan in the palace."

In order to prevent Yi Xiaochuan from becoming a useless person, and to give Yi Xiaochuan some thoughts, Ying Zheng was also quite hard.
