"Wang Wei, your father Wang Li was tricked and killed by Xiang Yu in Xin'an. You must avenge your father's murder. You must obey my order and go to Feiqiu immediately to persuade Zhang Han and his soldiers to surrender. Otherwise, when my heavenly soldiers arrive, there will be There is no life or death!”
Liu Bang spread his legs and gave condescending instructions.
If it were his father Wang Li, Liu Bang would still look up to him. Wang Wei is young and not worth mentioning. If I give you an order, just follow it.
But the son of a general who had been a general for generations frowned and said nothing.
"Why, can't you understand what I'm saying?" Liu Bang raised his voice.
Wang Wei finally raised his head and said in a hoarse voice: "My great-grandfather Wang Jian was a famous general of the Qin State, my grandfather Wang Bi was the Marquis of Tongwu of the Qin Dynasty, and my father Wang Li was the Marquis of Chengwu and a general!"
Liu Bang became impatient and said, "What's the use of talking about this? Qin has been dead for a long time and died in the hands of a few people!"
The king raised his head mightily and said proudly: "Although the country is destroyed, our aspirations cannot be changed! I would rather die than surrender!"
"What?" Liu Bang said angrily: "You are so arrogant! I am going to cook you!"
Wang Wei was not afraid, and even sneered: "Sure enough, they are just like Xiang Yu, they are all barbarians and beasts!" Wang Wei closed his eyes and waited for death. His father and more than 200,000 Qin soldiers surrendered and were buried alive by Xiang Yu. The hatred was as deep as the sea.
He and his eldest brother Wang Yuan each led their tribesmen to wander around. Wang Wei wanted to cross the Yellow River and go north to find a place to live. Before leaving, he came to pay homage to his father and the fallen soldiers of the Qin army, but he unexpectedly bumped into Liu Bang's team.
He didn't have time to escape and was taken as an assassin.
God's will is that death is death, there is nothing to be afraid of!
A good boy, with some bones and worthy of his ancestors.
I will not kill you.
"Someone, take him down."
…
"The king is so tolerant that he even opens the door to others." Chen Ping praised: "If it were Xiang Yu, he would really cook Wang Wei!"
Liu Ying chuckled: "It's just because I didn't want to be compared with Xiang Yu that I didn't take action. But I didn't overwhelm Wang Wei and let him be used by me!"
Chen Ping smiled bitterly and said: "As expected of a general, I also made a miscalculation."
There was an empty plan but no one executed it, which made Chen Ping angry. He looked at Liu Ying again and suddenly said: "Master, you treat people with sincerity. Is there any way to persuade Wang Wei to surrender to the king?"
Liu Ying shook her head immediately without thinking, "You and my father can't do anything. What can I do as a child? I'm tired from running all the way and want to sleep."
Liu Ying yawned and went to rest. Chen Ping had nothing to say. He also overestimated the young master.
The Han army advanced, passed Hangu Pass, and entered Guanzhong.
Separated by a barrier, it's like two worlds.
To the west of Hangu Pass, the hometown of Qin, the biggest feature is its neatness.
The roads are neat, the fields are neat, and even the trees on the roadside are neat!
The people of Lao Qin are so rigorous that it's scary.
Wherever the soldiers and horses passed, the fields were full of busy people, men, women, old and young, working hard without any disorder. It is completely different from the kind outside the customs, where the land is barren, the people have fled, and the eyes are full of depression.
Liu Ying, who was tired from the journey, also cheered up, jumped off the carriage, observed everywhere, and even ran to talk to the farmers in the fields.
From these people's mouths, the name Liu Ying heard the most was Xiao He!
That's right, it's Prime Minister Xiao who stayed in Guanzhong for Liu Bang!
He appeased the people, built cities, and opened the royal gardens for the people to cultivate.
Taxes were reduced or reduced, farming was encouraged, and people were granted titles.
He also selected young and virtuous people from among the people to serve as the three elders and educate the people.
There are countless strategies to benefit the people.
When talking about Prime Minister Xiao, the always reserved old Qin people did not hesitate to praise him and gave him two thumbs up.
It has been many years since I bathed in such a benevolent government.
In the early years of the First Emperor, the Qin State worked hard to govern, and everything was easy to say. However, in the later years of the First Emperor, the Great Wall, straight roads, and imperial mausoleums were built... and civilians were recruited everywhere. The land was barren and the people were miserable.
When the first emperor died, the second generation intensified and the world was in chaos.
Xiang Yu entered Guanzhong and set fire to Xianyang, which caused even greater disaster to the people.
If there is any good thing in these years, it is that when Pei Gong entered the customs, Xiao He admonished and made three chapters to abolish the harsh laws.
Later, the king of Han was driven to Bashu, and the people were all sad.
Unexpectedly, within a year, the king of Han came out of Chencang again.
Prime Minister Xiao He is also back.
The people of Lao Qin finally looked forward to the blue sky!
"Don't leave, the people of Old Qin are looking forward to Prime Minister Xiao governing Guanzhong forever!"
Hearing the voices of the elders in Guanzhong, Liu Ying was very emotional... There were many heroes in the early Han Dynasty, but the one Liu Ying admired the most was Xiao He.
Because his reputation did not come from killing people or deceiving people. He managed the country in a down-to-earth manner and benefited the people.
He is a wise minister, a good prime minister, and the blue sky above the heads of the people.
Such a character can travel through history and withstand changes in dynasties. No matter when it comes, people will admire him.
The old gangster is really lucky to have Xiao He as his assistant.
I will be able to see Xiao He soon, so happy!
Liu Ying came back with a smile, only to find a young man with handcuffs and shackles, also staring at the people working on the fields, his eyes showing clarity and joy.
Wang Wei!
Liu Ying had a guess and stepped over, "Are you also willing to see the people live and work in peace and contentment?"
"Who wouldn't want to?" Wang Wei sighed: "It's a pity, I'm afraid I won't be able to see it for much longer."
Liu Ying raised her head and looked at him. He looked talented and handsome. "You are young, why are you seeking death?"
Wang Wei also looked at Liu Ying, and when he saw that she was a little baby, he let down his guard and said with a bitter smile: "I don't want to die, but while I'm alive, I have to surrender to the enemy and humiliate my ancestors. How can I do this?"
"Surrender to the enemy? Who is your enemy?"
"Of course it's those rebellious ministers and bandits!" Wang Wei's eyes widened angrily, and he cursed with gnashing teeth: "My father and more than 200,000 soldiers of the Qin army have surrendered to the coalition of princes. The nobles of the six countries took revenge and humiliated the soldiers. Xiang Yu even more so. In Xin'an, the killer will kill all the soldiers, how can I let go of the revenge of killing my father? I would rather die than surrender to the thief!"
Liu Ying frowned slightly. Wang Wei's words solved some of his doubts. The reason why Xiang Yu killed all the Qin soldiers and surrendered them was related to the nobles of the six countries.
The Qin State destroyed the six kingdoms, and these people were resentful, so they spread their anger on the soldiers...
"Even if what you say makes sense, this is the Han Dynasty!" Liu Ying said: "It's not the Six Kingdoms, and we have no enmity with the old Qin people!"
"Nonsense!" Wang Wei said angrily: "Xiang Yu and the King of Han are both ministers of the Chu State, how could they deceive me?"
"No! King Huai, the Righteous Emperor, is dead!" Liu Ying asked back: "You said that one day, the King of Han will unify the world. Will the country be called Han or Chu?"
"This..." Wang Wei was stunned and was speechless by the child in front of him.
At this moment, Xia Houying came in a hurry and said to Liu Ying: "Sir, the king has asked you to come over."
Liu Ying hurriedly went to see Liu Bang, leaving Wang Wei with a troubled face. Dahan was a new country and had nothing to do with the Six Kingdoms. Liu Bang entered Guanzhong first and did not participate in the Xin'an Massacre...
"What do you want me to do?" Liu Ying got straight to the point. He knew Liu Bang was fine so he wouldn't come to him. The two men hated each other.
"Ying!" Liu Bang showed his signature smile again, and reached out to pull Liu Ying to his side, "Listen, we are about to enter Yueyang. I have given orders to prepare the etiquette of canonizing the crown prince. You will soon be the crown prince of Han Dynasty. ”
Liu Ying nodded. Although it was expected, she still wanted to express her gratitude. "My father is so kind to me, and I am very grateful."
When Liu Bang saw the boy thanking him, he said again: "Ying, my father has one more thing for you to do. What do you think?"
Liu Ying moved slightly, nodded and said: "My father has given me orders, and I will naturally do my best and don't dare to neglect."
Liu Bang was overjoyed again and simply picked up Liu Ying and sat in his arms, "Listen, now everyone in Guanzhong praises Xiao He and says he is a wise minister. You should pay attention."
"Pay attention? What?"
"Ying, my father still has to deal with Xiang Yu. There must be no fire in the backyard. If Xiao He has second thoughts, my father will die without a place to bury him."
Liu Ying frowned slightly and said hesitantly: "Father, you want me to monitor Prime Minister Xiao?"
Liu Bang nodded happily, "Nai Weng knows that you are a smart boy. Keep an eye on him. If anything happens, tell my father immediately."
The old gangster's tricks are so deep that even Xiao He doesn't trust him?
Liu Ying couldn't say much, so she could only agree.
When he came out of Liu Bang's tent, he suddenly saw a fragrant car parked outside the Han Dynasty's tent. Then a young woman got out of the car, encouraged by the fragrant fragrance, and entered the big tent directly.
"Sir, that person is Mrs. Qi!"
Liu Ying was shocked, good fellow, the original wife is with Xiang Yu, and the old gangster can't wait for the colorful flags to flutter, right?
If you want to have fun, it has to be you!
Liu Ying snorted heavily and turned away. He got up early. Liu Bang was still sleeping soundly. Liu Ying got on the carriage and drove straight into Yueyang. When he arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, he rushed in without waiting for notification.
"Father Zhong! I am Liu Ying!"
An elegant and gentle uncle heard the shouting and quickly raised his head, only to see Liu Ying running over in three or two steps, saying aggrievedly: "Father Zhong, Father asked me to monitor you!"
