When the emperor looked up, Meng Yi subconsciously stopped, lowered his head more humbly, and then spoke.

"I went to meet the county magistrate Yin Tong today. Yin Tong said that Xiang was quite responsible in Kuaiji County before. He did not expect that Xiang would actually participate in this matter in advance."

The emperor said lightly: "If so, why would Yin Tong send troops to round up the Xiang family?"

Meng Yi said: "Yin Tong also said that he was ordered to do it."

The emperor said, "Whose order is taken?"

Meng Yi said: "His Highness Hu Hai and Zhao Gao, the CRRC Mansion Commander."

The hall suddenly became quiet.

After a moment, the emperor said lightly: "Continue."

Meng Yi said: "Then it's Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang, a thief, has always been stubborn and tried to restore South Korea. Therefore, he not only offended His Majesty, but also assassinated many officials of the Qin Dynasty. These assassinations are diverse, but one is the same, that is, Zhang Liang never leaves a living mouth. In the Yu village that day, I also witnessed Zhang Liang's attempt to assassinate His Highness Hu Hai and failed. Then, under the pursuit of his minister, Zhang Liang had to die.

After I left, the robber who hijacked His Highness did not hurt Hu Hai's life, nor did he leave with Zhang Liang. Therefore, there is a high possibility that this robber is not Zhang Liang and his gang."

The emperor said: "What does this have to do with Xiang? Is there any evidence to prove that the robber is a member of Xiang?"

Meng Yi said: "This does have nothing to do with the Xiang family, but it is one of the reasons why Zhao Gao ordered Yin Tong to send troops to Xiang family."

The emperor pondered for a moment and said, "So do you think Xiang may be innocent?"

Meng Yi said: "There is insufficient evidence at the moment, and I dare not make an absolute judgment, but at present, based on my guess, Xiang is indeed very likely to be innocent."

The emperor nodded and suddenly laughed: "How did Xiang find you?"

Meng Yi's body suddenly froze.

The emperor looked at Meng Yi and his brows gradually frowned. It was a sign that this emperor of the ages was about to get angry.

With a thud, Meng Yi knelt down and said, "It was a hundred generals who were knocked out last night and had a letter on them."

The emperor said, "Where is your faith?"

Meng Yi took out the letter from his arms and handed it to the emperor respectfully.

The emperor glanced at the cover of the letter and shook his head: "The handwriting is too ugly. Who is Xiang Yu?"

Meng Yi hurriedly said: "The eldest grandson of Xiang Yan, the eldest son of the Xiang family, and the eldest son of the Xiang family."

The emperor said oh, and laughed: "He is also considered a descendant of a famous family."

After opening the letter, the emperor looked at the letter paper made of silk cloth.

There is also a line of words written on it in a very sloppy manner: "Fusu, Meng Tian is about to be in trouble. If the general wants to save him, he will go to the fourth and five miles away from the alley outside the palace to see him."

The emperor exclaimed, looked at Meng Yi in surprise, and said, "Have you gone to see me?"

Meng Yi said: "I have indeed gone, please punish Your Majesty."

The emperor said, "What did he say to you?"

Meng Yi said: "I dare not say it."

The emperor's face darkened and he said coldly: "Tell me."

Just by saying these two words, the temperature in the hall seemed to drop by at least ten degrees suddenly.

Meng Yi trembled all over and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Xiang Yu... He said that if His Majesty is out on patrol, if there is a good fortune, the CRRC Mansion Order is the army of the prince Hu Hai, and he will most likely try every means to help Hu Hai take office. Then it will be the death of His Highness Fusu and my brother Meng Tian!"

When the emperor heard this, he was stunned at first, then a trace of extremely obvious anger flashed across his face, but finally he laughed.

"Interesting, very interesting. The boy you are talking about... is named Xiang Yu, right?"

...

After a while, Meng Yi left the hall with some conscience.

At the door, an uninvited guest and Meng Yi almost got full of emotions.

Meng Yi snorted and said coldly: "Don't you look at the road when you walk? If you continue like this, something will happen sooner or later!"

Zhao Gao's face was also very unhappy and retorted: "I am walking on the road well, but how could I suddenly see a stinky and hard stumbling block in front of me!"

Although the two were close ministers around the emperor, they were really disgusted with each other. After mocking each other for a few words, they both went on their own anger.

Zhao Gao walked into the hall and saluted respectfully to the emperor: "My minister Zhao Gao has seen Your Majesty."

The emperor's face turned Gujing Bubo again and said lightly: "How are you investigating?"

Zhao Gao said: "Although Xiang Liang and Xiang Zhuang and his son have been tortured, they have not confessed yet. However, from the current inference, I still believe that the person who kidnapped His Highness Hu Hai that day was from the Xiang family."

The emperor said: "Why?"

Zhao Gao said: "The Xiang family has several major doubts, and Rong said it to His Majesty one by one.

First, on the day when His Majesty arrived in Wu County, Xiang Yu, the young leader of the Xiang family, and Yin Yi, the son of the Kuaiji County Magistrate, clashed near the dock. Yin Yiyi wanted to occupy Yu Ji, the daughter of Yu, so Xiang Yu stepped forward and forced Yin Yi to retreat. According to bystanders, there was a scholar man who walked with the Yu family that day. The appearance of this person was quite similar to Zhang Liang.

Secondly, according to the neighbors next to Xiang's mansion, on the day when Chen and Meng Yi were ordered to send troops to the Yu's village, dozens of people in the Xiang's mansion also left the mansion in a mighty manner. According to the guards in the city, the direction where the Xiang family members were heading was the Yu's village.

Finally, when pursuing the robber who escaped after holding His Highness Hu Hai hostage, my soldiers and horses accidentally captured Xiang Zhuang, the son of Xiang Liang, the chief of the Xiang clan, in the reed marsh in the Yu family village. At that time, Xiang Zhuang looked panicked and stammered. I inferred that he was most likely the person who arranged for Xiang to meet the robber near the Yu family village.

From the above three points, plus the descriptions of the age, appearance, and martial arts of the Xiang family, I believe that the person who kidnapped His Highness Hu Hai that day should be the young leader of the Xiang family - Xiang Yu!"

Looking at Zhao Gao who was talking, the emperor nodded slightly, showing a satisfied expression.

Not everyone can be so trusted by this emperor of the ages. Only a true talent can stand by the emperor for decades without falling. Even the emperor will be willing to destroy the law for him and save Zhao Gaoyi's life from Meng Yi!

The emperor said, "I understand, you go down."

Zhao Gao was stunned for a moment, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. He couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, I think I should send troops immediately..."

The emperor interrupted Zhao Gao coldly: "Are you teaching me to do things?"

Zhao Gao was shocked, knelt down with a thud, and said tremblingly: "I... I have no such thing. I just..."

The emperor suddenly felt upset and interrupted Zhao Gao again: "What else do you guys do except kneel down all day long? Now, get out of here immediately!"

After a while, Zhao Gao, who was sweating profusely, walked out of the hall with an extremely ugly expression and muttered to himself.

"How could it be like this? It must be that damn Meng Yi, who said some nonsense in front of His Majesty again!"

As Zhao Gao walked, his face gradually became ferocious.

Wu County, the temporary settlement of Xiang family.

"The news from Meng Yi came so quickly?" Xiang Yu looked at the letter that had just been sent to him in surprise, opened it and read it, and then he became dumbfounded.

Zhang Liang waited for a long time, and saw that Xiang Yu was still motionless like a sculpture, and couldn't help but ask, "What is written in the letter?"
