Three days later, while Meng Yi was still searching for clues, in a dilapidated thatched house outside Xianyang City, Bai Tai was lying on the ground moaning, his face covered in blood, and several of his front teeth were missing.
Bai Tui threw away the stick in his hand and sat down angrily. Looking at Bai Tai rolling around, he still couldn't hide his anger: "How could I have a son as stupid as you! Even a pig wouldn't be so brainless!"
Bai Tai was beaten half to death, and he stood up with force, his voice trembling: "Father, I just want to vent my anger on my father. Who would have thought that Bai Yan was so useless that he couldn't even shoot Fusu while standing on the city wall!"
When Bai Tu heard this, his anger that had just subsided suddenly started to burn again, and he immediately picked up the stick on the ground and started beating him.
Bai Tai quickly begged for mercy: "Father, stop beating me. If you beat me again, I will kill you. I am the only son you have!"
Bai Tu sighed heavily and scolded angrily: "Do you know that you have caused a huge disaster?"
On Bai Tai's pig-headed head, his eyes narrowed: "Father, don't worry, everyone involved is dead, and nothing can be found on the child."
Bai Tu was immediately furious: "Idiot! Do you think everyone in the imperial court is a freeloader? Although Chen Er has been killed by Bai Yan, and Bai Yan also committed suicide, can you guarantee that Chen Er was not killed on the way from Xi County to Xianyang? Have people seen him? And who is Bai Yan? Many people know that although he and I have no sworn relationship as father and son, he was cultivated and promoted by me."
"Now that Bai Yan has openly assassinated Fusu without leaving a single word, everyone will be suspicious of me! Do you know?! Idiot!"
Bai Tai murmured: "Father, what should we do now?"
Bai Tu rolled his eyes, and Bai Tai was so frightened that he dared not speak.
After a long time, Bai Tu sighed: "I originally wanted to endure it for a while, waiting for someone in the world to rebel again. I can take the opportunity to invade Xianyang and make that ignorant Hu Hai the emperor. By then, the Qin Dynasty will not be my Bai family's. The final word!"
After speaking, he glared at Bai Tai again.
"But you didn't listen to your father's advice. Not only did you not restrain yourself, you also used my name to let Bai Yan assassinate Fusu. Now that Bai Yan is dead, I have lost the control of the most important Xianyang Forbidden Army. You are really a fool!"
"Fortunately, I have made preparations, otherwise I would have been killed by you, a treacherous son! Now that things have happened, we have to start an attack in advance! Otherwise, when Fusu finds out about us, there will be no chance of survival."
Hearing this, Bai Tai ignored the pain on his body and said happily: "My child has long known that my father has made all preparations. When will we start an uprising? Xi County is only a day's journey away. By then, my child can also support his father in Xi County."
Bai Tu heard this and said, "You will go back to Yi County tonight to rectify the people of Yi County. When I am ready here, I will send someone to inform you."
Bai Tai rolled his eyes.
"Father, do we really want to make that Hu Hai emperor?"
Bai Tu said coldly: "Otherwise? Make a fool like you the emperor?"
Bai Tai smiled awkwardly and complimented: "I don't dare. If you want to be the emperor, your father will also be the emperor. Why let Hu Hai get the advantage in vain?"
Bai Tu snorted coldly: "What do you know? If my Bai family directly proclaims the emperor, it will definitely attract opposition from the world."
Then the corner of his mouth raised a venomous arc, and he said solemnly: "Let's make Hu Hai the emperor first. If Hu Hai has any shortcomings... He, the Ying family, can do what I, the Bai family, can do to be the emperor!"
Bai Tai was overjoyed when he heard this and bowed: "My son, I would like to congratulate my father first!"
Bai Tu stood up and said: "Okay, stop talking nonsense. Without further ado, you leave immediately, and I have to go back to Xianyang to prepare. Now that Xianyang is under martial law, Meng Yi and his people have almost turned Xianyang upside down, and even my father can't Stay outside the city for a long time to prevent others from discovering the clues!"
Then a few people quietly left the broken house and went their separate ways...
Two days later, Meng He hurriedly reported: "Your Majesty, the thief is on the move!"
Everyone who committed the assassination was killed, and it was extremely difficult to find the person behind the scenes. I deliberately let Meng Yi make this matter a big deal. The people behind the scenes must be afraid, and they will jump out in a panic.
After listening to Meng He's report, I nodded and said: "As expected, you surrender to the punishment..."
Only then did I realize that Xingzhong would never appear again. After Xingzhong was buried, Lan'er insisted on guarding Xingzhong's tomb. I couldn't resist her, so I had to order someone to build a thatched house next to Xingzhong's tomb and send him some food every day. Fortunately, the weather is getting warmer, otherwise I am really afraid that she will not survive.
'Oh, let's wait until the matter is settled before trying to persuade her. ’ Thinking of this, I said, “Send these edicts as soon as possible.”
In the spring of the second year of Qin II.
Whether it is the history books of later generations of the Qin Dynasty or the history books of other small countries, they all write down the rebellion that occurred in the spring of that year as the most important moment in the life of Emperor Fusu, the second emperor of Qin.
There is no other reason: the rebellion in the spring of the second year of Qin II was the most dangerous rebellion that occurred since the Qin Dynasty unified the world; the rebellion in the spring of the second year of Qin II was put down, marking that Emperor Qin II, Fusu, fully controlled the empire and symbolized The empire entered a period of rapid development.
February 20th.
At this time, everything in Xianyang was completely silent, and even the dogs keeping watch at night were drowsy.
Suddenly, there was a dull sound of horse hooves hitting the ground in front of the south gate of Xianyang. The leader rushed to the city gate, reined in his horse, stopped, and shouted: "I am Bai Tu, the captain of the guard army. There is an urgent report from the border. I have been ordered to go to Yunzhong to supervise the battle!"
When Li Qingshi, the city guard officer, saw Bai Tu coming, he naturally recognized the guard captain, and hurriedly raised his hands and said: "My Lord, you are joining the guard army only according to the imperial decree. No one is allowed to come in or out during the curfew period. This..."
Bai Tu snorted coldly: "Why, do you need to be notified in advance of Beihu's invasion?"
When Li Qingshi heard this, he hesitated and said: "Why don't you, Lord Guards, wait for a while, and I will order people to find Lord Wei..."
Before Li Qingshi could finish his words, he was interrupted by Bai Tu: "How many heads do you have to chop off if you delay the military situation at the border? I often go in and out of the army, and no one dares to stop me. You are very courageous!"
Li Qingshi was in a dilemma. Guard Lieutenant Li Jie had just been promoted from the commander of the carriage commander to guard guard. Although he was the son of Prime Minister Li Si, he was a soldier. Let alone promotion, even his life and death depended on Bai Tu, the guard captain.
After thinking for a long time, Li Qingshi waved his hand: "Kaicheng!"
Bai Tu said, "You know what's going on!" and then he galloped away with a few guards.
At the beginning of the Chou period, Li Jie inspected the south gate and was shocked when he heard that Bai Tu was leading people out of Xianyang. Regardless of the palace ban, Li Jie rode his horse to the palace gate and asked someone to wake me up.
After listening to Li Jie's words, I also frowned.
I originally thought Bai Tu would make a desperate move to rebel in Xianyang City. After all, Xianyang is the center of the empire. Once Xianyang is captured, even the northern and southern armies stationed nearby will not be able to arrive in time. Now he just ran away. With his character and plan, he definitely wouldn't run away out of fear. There might be some big conspiracy brewing!
I immediately asked Li Jie to send people to chase Bai Tu, and on the other hand, I asked the Northern and Southern Army under the command of Meng Heming and Ying Chen to move closer to Xianyang to prevent Bai Tu from besieging Xianyang.
But in my heart, I was puzzled: What on earth is this Bai Tu doing?
