Chapter 89 Wei Liao’s strategy
Li Si took a set of the Four Treasures of the Study to Zhou Qingchen's house and gave them to Zhou Qingchen. Then he asked Zhou Qingchen to take the Four Treasures of the Study to find a wine shop in Xianyang to drink and write.
After Zhou Qingchen got the Four Treasures of the Study, he was very excited and happy, so he readily agreed.
However, when he wrote on the paper, he realized that his handwriting was so ugly, so he had no choice but to confess to Li Si.
Li Si knew that a knowledgeable person like Zhou Qing was very considerate, so he promised Zhou Qingchen to practice for three days before going out to help Li Si promote the Four Treasures of the Study.
Zhou Qingchen was extremely grateful to Li Si.
After sending Zhou Qingchen away, Li Si went to check the four major workshops. He wanted to build all four major workshops before going to Zhaojiacun.
On the other side, Meng Yi actually found two assassins who were not dead among a group of corpses. However, due to immature medical conditions, they died before being interrogated after they were brought back.
This completely cut off his clues.
Just when he was at a loss, Wei Liao came to the door.
Meng Yi went out to greet him in person: "I have seen Lieutenant Wei."
Wei Liao waved his hand and said: "Meng Yi, I am here today under your Majesty's order to help you capture the assassin. You are the master and I am the assistant. If you have any orders, just ask."
"Master Taiwei, don't say it's a joke." Meng Yi thought Wei Liao was here to joke with him.
"I'm not joking. His Majesty was assassinated. He thought it was my responsibility, so he asked me to catch the assassin to make amends.
Originally I was dismissive of this, but His Majesty's Four Treasures of the Study impressed me, so I decided to help you catch the assassin. "Wei Liao said.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Taiwei. Unfortunately, the assassin is already dead. Those who escaped have already left the city, and no one can be caught for a while.
I've lost all clues for the time being. "Meng Yi said.
"It doesn't matter. If there are no clues, we will create clues and tell you who you suspect."
"Okay, please come to the study to discuss this in detail."
"please."
…
When Meng Ao learned that Wei Liao was coming, he immediately hurried back home and came to the study.
"Hahaha..." Meng Ao saw Wei Liao and laughed, "Sure enough, it's you, haha... Wei Liao, I haven't seen you for a long time. I can't say anything today without getting drunk."
"Father, Lord Taiwei is here to help your grandson solve the assassin case." Meng Yi stood up and explained immediately.
If I let my eldest father drink with the Taiwei, I would lose a helper. Although His Majesty did not limit the time, I could not be so lazy.
"Bastard, catching the assassin is your business, what does it have to do with Wei Liao? Wei Liao, don't worry about this brat, just come and have a drink."
Meng Ao glared at Meng Yi fiercely, then smiled at Wei Liao, and took Wei Liao's hand to leave the study.
Wei Liao immediately broke free from Meng Ao's hand and said: "Meng Ao, it's important to catch the assassin. After catching the assassin, I have to practice calligraphy and I don't have time to drink with you."
"Practice calligraphy? What calligraphy to practice?" Meng Ao asked, "Aren't you literate? What other calligraphy do you need to practice?"
"Hey, you don't understand even after I tell you. Let's go to Li Si's house and ask him for the Four Treasures of the Study. Then you will know what I am talking about." Wei Liao said.
"Ask Li Si for something? Will someone as stingy as him give it to me?" Meng Ao asked.
"Yes, if not, you can go to His Majesty and ask for it. Your Majesty will definitely give it to you. Remember, it is the Four Treasures of the Study. Four treasures that will change Da Qin." Wei Liao reminded.
"Father, there is one in the study of Brother Four Treasures of the Study." Meng Yi said.
Meng Tian also brought a set of the Four Treasures of the Study and planned to give it to Meng Yi, but Meng Yi didn't want it.
Meng Yi thought this thing was too valuable and didn't dare to ask for it, so he asked Meng Tian to put it in his study. If he wanted to use it, he could go to Meng Tian's study to get it at any time.
I didn't take this matter to heart at first, but Wei Liao reminded me of it.
Meng Ao glanced at Meng Yi suspiciously: "Don't lie to me."
"Sun but dare not."
Immediately, Meng Ao disappeared into the study and went to Meng Tian's study.
When Meng Yi saw Meng Ao leaving, he immediately said apologetically: "Your Majesty Taiwei, please forgive me. My eldest father misses Mr. Taiwei too much."
Wei Liao smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, the relationship between me and your eldest father can be described as a life-and-death friendship.
Let’s get down to business. You said you think Zhang Liang from South Korea is the mastermind. What evidence is there? "
Meng Yi shook his head and said: "They are all using Korean weapons, but it does not rule out that they use Korean weapons to deceive others."
Wei Liao said: "Now that the assassin has escaped, all we can do is search the whole city to catch those who slipped through the net.
But this is not a good thing for the people of Xianyang City, so I suggest that the government use those corpses to fish out other assassins? "
Meng Yi suddenly realized: "I understand, hang the body on the city gate and let everyone know that this is the fate of being an assassin."
"Not only that, but we also need to tell the people that these assassins stole Qu Yuuli." Wei Liao said.
"Place the blame on the assassin and let the people of the world help catch the assassin?" Meng Yi said again.
"Yes." Wei Liao said, "Your Majesty brought all the farm tools back to the palace, and the most useful one among them was the Quyuan plow.
As long as everyone knows that Qu Yuuli was robbed, what do you think the people in the world will do? "
"Find Qu Yuuli and scold those assassins."
"That's right." Wei Liao said, "In this way, the number of assassinations of His Majesty can be reduced. Therefore, the assassin will become the public enemy of the people from this moment on.
As long as they don't hand over Quyuan Li, they will not dare to show their faces again. "
"Your Majesty Taiwei is wise, and I admire you from all my subordinates."
"Salute, you go make arrangements. In addition, we can't catch the assassin, so you shouldn't do anything to disturb the people." Wei Liao said.
"promise."
Meng Yi understood that this disturbing thing was to search for assassins throughout the city.
"Haha... good stuff, really good stuff, baby, really precious." Loud laughter came from the next door.
Wei Liao smiled and said, "I'll go take a look, and you can think about it yourself."
"promise."
…
The next day, Meng Yi wrote his plan into a memorial and handed it to Ying Zheng.
After reading it, Ying Zheng knew that it was impossible to capture the assassin. If he was in the suburbs, he could just massacre everyone within ten miles.
You cannot massacre at will in the city, which will cause the people of Xianyang City to flee in large numbers. This is not what Ying Zheng wants to see.
In the end, Ying Zheng agreed to Meng Yi's plan.
After Meng Yi got Ying Zheng's consent, he planned to hang the assassin's body in the city for ten days regardless of whether it stunk or not.
At the same time, it was announced to the world that these assassins would use the plow to stir up thousands of waves with one stone.
The people in the entire Xianyang City were excited. It was a curved shaft plow that could be plowed by one person and one ox, and could be pulled without oxen.
Immediately, some people began to inquire about the whereabouts of the assassins, and soon learned that they were out of the city.
