Great Qin's son-in-law

Get out of the palace.

Yi's body was trembling slightly.

He stood aside in a daze, not recovering for a long time.

a long time.

Yi woke up with a start.

At this time, a gust of cool wind blew by, and he only felt a chill on his back.

He raised his hand tremblingly and wiped the sweat from his forehead, as if he was fished out of the water.

He turned his head, glanced at the main hall, and saluted respectfully.

Then turned and left.

After walking a few steps quickly, Yi's expression softened a little.

he knows.

This thing is finally over.

In the past few days, he didn't think about tea or food, and his mind was full of thinking about this matter. Now that the matter is over, he has also received His Majesty's promise, and he can finally retire safely.

Yi raised his head and strode away.

Inside the hall.

Ying Zheng glanced at the memorial, and then threw it into the stove not far away. A wave of heat surged, and in just an instant, the bamboo was reduced to fly ash.

The matter of Zhao Gao is completely over!

The end of December.

The weather is getting colder and colder. On the eaves of every household, there is a long, thick icy edge hanging like an arm, like a sword. It is cold and bitter. In the alleys, many children are dancing with sticks and knocking on the eaves of their own houses. Bing Leng, has a lot of popularity on the street.

Just as the child was running all over the street, a group of soldiers in black leather armor suddenly appeared on the street, and there was a sense of solemnity on the street. Immediately, some parents took their child back, and then looked up This is a carriage surrounded by soldiers.

The person sitting in the carriage was Qin Luoheng.

His grounding is over.

As soon as it was over, Qin Luoheng went to the palace.

It's just that now that he has a special status, he can no longer travel freely as before. In addition, Lu County was attacked and killed last time, so he must follow some guards to accompany him.

the other side.

The palace had already received the news.

Wang Li, Wang Ping and others waited outside the palace early.

Wang Li was originally in the Jiuyuan Army, but after hearing that Wang Ben was awake, he went home to serve him, and he stayed at home all the time.

Soon.

Qin Luoheng's carriage queue appeared in front of everyone.

Wang Li and the others bowed to greet them.

Qin Luoheng got down from the carriage, looked at the two brothers Wang Li and Wang Ping, and said, "General Wang Li, you are welcome. I heard that Tong Wu Hou was awake, so I wanted to come directly, but because of some private matters, I finally delayed." Now, I am ashamed."

Wang Li said:
"Why does the ten son need to say that?"

"The Tenth Young Master has a mountain of kindness to the Wang family, and it's just right to come here now."

"Ten son Tianhan, please come in."

Qin Luoheng nodded, and stepped into the palace.

Lobby.

Wang Ben was sitting in the main seat, but Wang Ben's spirit was not very good. When he saw Qin Luoheng, he wanted to get up directly and salute Qin Luoheng. Qin Luoheng also hurried forward and persuaded: "Tong Wu Hou, you are really insulting the younger generation, how can I, Ying Sinian, be worthy of your gift?"

"Marquis Tongwu wakes up for a short time, so he should focus on recuperation."

talking.

Qin Luoheng also stopped Wang Ben from getting up.

Wang Ben tremblingly said: "Thank you, Master Shi, for your understanding."

Qin Luoheng shook his head and said:

"Mr. Tongwu called me the tenth son, but it seems that I am born. When I came to the palace last time, I still used the name of Qin Luoheng. If you don't mind Tongwuhou, you can still call me by my previous name. Everything is the same as before. , so that it doesn’t look out of place.”

...

Qin Luoheng looked around.

He smiled and said: "I came in a hurry, and I didn't bring anything. It happened that Marquis Tong Wu had just woken up from a serious illness, and his body was still somewhat inconvenient, so I brought a reclining chair on my own initiative. It can be regarded as being praised by the emperor, but now I think it is appropriate to send it to Tong Wuhou."

Done.

Qin Luoheng waved his hands slightly.

Suddenly, an eunuch stepped forward and moved the reclining chair that accompanied him into the lobby.

Qin Luoheng said: "The weather is cold, so I added a layer of fur on it. When the weather turns hot, you can take it off directly. General Wang Li, help Tong Wuhou to sit down and try it. By the way, I also teach Teach you, how to use this recliner, how to adjust the height."

Wang Li nodded quickly.

When Wang Ben sat down, Wang Li was still nervous about Wang Ben.

Wang Ben waved his hand to signal Wang Li not to be so nervous, Qin Luoheng smiled and said, "General Wang Li is indeed a filial man, Tong Wuhou is indeed very lucky, but I heard that General Wang Li has just returned from Beiyuan, so I don't know what to do in Beijiang." How's the situation over there?"

Wang Li said in a deep voice, "Go back to Master Ten."

"There is no serious problem in northern Xinjiang, but the construction of the Great Wall is a bit slow. Firstly, the weather is bitter and cold, so it is not easy to build it. Second, His Majesty has ordered that the recruited people need to go after spring plowing, so It may be difficult to increase the progress of building the Great Wall."

"However, in the last battle in northern Xinjiang, the Huns were defeated, and they could not gather their troops for a short time. Although there were sporadic remnants of the Huns from time to time, they crossed the border to plunder, but the harm to northern Xinjiang was not great, and after several times After the sweep, there are very few remnants of the Huns on the periphery."

"Northern Xinjiang can probably be stable for a few years."

Qin Luoheng nodded.

Said:

"It would be great if the northern border is safe."

"It's just the matter of the Great Wall, and we really can't rush it."

"However, there is an elder brother sitting in the town, so it should be fine."

Wang Li said:
"What the ten sons said is true."

"After the expulsion of the Xiongnu in northern Xinjiang, peace has been restored, and the people have gradually moved northward, and have begun to regain their former vitality. It should not be long before northern Xinjiang can return to its former prosperity, but the Great Wall is after all for the Great Qin to resist the barbarians in the future. door, so it should be completed as soon as possible.”

Qin Luoheng frowned and said:

"Is the Great Wall so urgent in your hearts?"

Wang Li's expression froze, but he didn't know why Qin Luoheng asked this question, and said: "The Great Wall is a national policy set by His Majesty, which will affect the long-term stability of northern Xinjiang in the future, and the Huns are quite cunning now, and most of them only dispatched small groups The Huns went northward, and although there were 30 troops stationed in northern Xinjiang, it was very difficult to gather and wipe them out in one fell swoop."

"So building the Great Wall is the long-term plan!"

"When I came back this time, apart from taking care of Aunt, I wrote a letter to His Majesty, wanting to start the construction of various parts of the Great Wall as soon as possible, so as to make it difficult for the Xiongnu to cross the northern border."

Qin Luoheng frowned even tighter.

In a cold voice:
"I see it differently."

"In the past, the Great Qin was afraid of the Xiongnu, and Gai was worried that the Huns would make peace with the remnants of the six kingdoms, and the internal and external attacks made the Great Qin exhausted. Now that the Huns have collapsed, it is difficult to recover in a short time. As far as I know, the internal struggles of the Hu people are very fierce. Due to the heavy losses this time, it may be difficult to convince the public, and the Xiongnu may be in chaos for a while."

...

"It is true that there are small groups of barbarians fleeing in the north, but the people in the villages have not yet gone north. Therefore, these small groups of barbarians are very effective in influencing the north. Why is it so urgent?"

"Could it be that because this is the policy set by His Majesty, you want to make great achievements and complete it as soon as possible? To win this monstrous achievement? Or even completely disregarding the opinions of the people and life and death?"

heard.

Wang Li's face changed slightly.

Hastily said:
"I definitely have no intention of waiting."

Just when Wang Li was about to defend himself, Wang Ben coughed a few times, preventing Wang Li from continuing to speak. Wang Ben said in a hoarse voice, "Li'er, I'm thirsty, go get me a glass of water."

Wang Li quickly promised.

Then he left the lobby quickly.

Wang Ben coughed lightly: "Wang Li has a reckless personality, and he doesn't hesitate to speak out. Please forgive me, Master Ten."

Qin Luoheng shook his head and said:

"Don't I know the nature of General Wang Li? It's just a matter of building the Great Wall. It's really not worth rushing for a while. Moreover, Marquis Tong Wu may not know that the reason why the Great Wall didn't slow down was because I suggested it to Father. We can no longer waste the old Qin people on these things."

heard.

Wang Ben's complexion also changed.

Then he nodded and said:
"Young master thinks about it very much."

"Wang Li has been in the army all along, but he doesn't know much about this matter."

Qin Luoheng said: "Right now, Daqin seems to be full of flowers and brocades, but in fact it is full of dangers inside. If you are not careful, you will be in danger of being overthrown. What I said is by no means alarmist."

"Tong Wuhou, who has served Qin for decades, some things are actually more transparent than I am. Right now everyone is fighting for the crown prince, or chasing fame and fortune. The current emperor and ministers of Great Qin may have already lost their minds."

"But it's not the courtier's fault."

"The establishment of the Qin Dynasty is still short, and it has not yet formed its own ideas. Therefore, many officials still follow the inertia of the three generations. They entered the court as officials only to shade the family. This is actually understandable, but what the father asked , is to revolutionize the world, with the world in mind, and their thinking has undoubtedly run counter to Da Qin's."

"and"

"I'm afraid they have already been deceived by their desire for profit!"

"Tong Wuhou, you are the most trusted and valued person by your father, and you are also well versed in the current situation of Daqin. I want to hear your opinion, and I also want to know where Daqin will go?"

Qin Luoheng looked at Wang Ben calmly.

Wang Ben's face darkened.

He took a deep look at Qin Luoheng, and said in a deep voice: "Before I fell into a coma, I had actually noticed something, and even reminded His Majesty a few words, but it was far from your son's thorough understanding. I just felt at that time, Hundreds of officials are more or less selfish, and have even begun to act blindly because of their selfish desires."

"At that time, I was also quite puzzled about this matter, and I hadn't thought about the reason until after what the young master said, it was like waking up from a dream. Daqin did destroy the six kingdoms, but in essence, Daqin just made a change in the system. Innovation did not make further ideological demands, so it caused the thinking of all officials to regress."

"The reason is that there is something wrong with Daqin himself."

"Furthermore, the implementation of the government decree by the court was too drastic, without considering the capacity of all parties, which led to Daqin's current situation. In addition, what the young master said just now is very reasonable. The court seems to rely too much on it, and even consumes the old Qin people too much. .”

"The old Qin people are the foundation of the Great Qin Dynasty, the foundation of the country, and the waste of fortifications in various places is completely wasting the blood of the old Qin people. Your son's suggestion is very necessary and crucial."

"I admire you!"

"It's just that the young master has already seen the clue, why didn't he tell His Majesty directly? Instead, he told me, a dying person? It's really hard for me to understand."

"My lord, please clarify."
