Fusu was very frightened.
The national policy of the Qin Dynasty is to impose severe punishments and severe laws. The so-called severe punishments are not simply severe punishment for all crimes, but direct punishment of the heart.
Still taking the example of abandoning ashes on the road. Why should those who abandon the Tao be killed? It was not because the punishment for immorality was directly to be beheaded, but because the First Emperor had decreed that the ashes of plants and trees should be put into the fields to fertilize. If you don't do it, you are against the First Emperor.
Do you deny that you are against the First Emperor? Then you can produce evidence to prove your innocence.
It must be said that this kind of country-governing strategy is indeed extremely deterrent.
Even the young master Fusu was in fear every day, fearing that if he were not investigated for a while, he would be accused of being a rebel against the First Emperor.
However, today, General Meng Tian was blamed for everything.
Arguing about the longevity of the Qin Dynasty and blatantly opposing the First Emperor's statement that the Qin Dynasty will last forever?
General, my son Fusu cannot afford to bear this crime!
Fu Su looked at Meng Tian steadily, and although Meng Tian looked apologetic, his eyes were extremely firm.
Sighing, Fusu knew that he couldn't escape today.
If the knot in General Meng Tian's heart is not untied, who knows what he will do?
If he really risked his life to write to the First Emperor, could he really break away from the relationship?
He is an army commander and his supervisor!
The general had the intention of treason, why didn't he report it earlier? Could it be that we have been guarding the border together for many years and have never noticed it? Or is it deliberately concealed?
This is also the principle of Qin Law. Rebellious thieves are born, and they are definitely not acquired due to environmental influences. Therefore, if a rebel was not killed before he had time to rebel, his supervisor's body would be left to eat, and he must be punished with the same crime.
"General," he said helplessly, "could it be that you don't know this prophecy?"
A prophecy is a prophecy. The alchemists are fond of making prophecies, which are often astonishing.
"Young master, don't you believe the prophecy?" Meng Tian asked.
"Of course I don't believe it!" Fusu shook his head without hesitation, "The prophecies are just roosters and dog robbers who are just trying to make things easier."
"For example, Grandpa Wang was fishing on the shore of the Weishui River," he looked at Meng Tian. "The general thought that it would be possible to catch fish with a straight hook without bait?"
"No!" Meng Tian replied without hesitation.
"I don't believe Que's words either," he continued, "but what this stranger said makes me have to believe it!"
"Why?" Fusu was filled with anger, and his eyes gradually became stern.
Why is the general so stubborn?
"This time I left Xianyang, passed through Nanyang, and arrived at Nanjun. I feel deeply that the world is uneasy!"
Meng Tian's face showed a look of recollection: "Eight years ago, when I led the army to the north, I passed by Qi. At that time, there were still 200,000 soldiers in our army who had surrendered. They were anxious and wailing."
"When the Qi people first surrendered, the Qi people still regarded us Qin people as life and death enemies, but I saw relief on the Qi people's faces."
Meng Tian said seriously: "The reason why the Qin cavalry swept across the six countries is because the world has been in war for hundreds of years, and people's minds are calm!"
"However, this time I passed through Wei and Chu, and I discovered that the people of Wei and Chu regard our Qin people as enemies, even more so than before!"
"Here, people's minds are confused..."
"Nonsense!" Before Meng Tian could finish speaking, Fusu could not bear it and let out a cold snort.
"It will be eight years since our Qin Dynasty ruled the world," he looked at Meng Tian. "In just eight years, the people of the world will be confused again? Where will you be, the First Emperor?"
No wonder Fusu was angry. Since King Ping of Zhou moved his capital to Luoyi, the Zhou royal family declined, and the world became a time of great strife, with princes vying for supremacy in the Central Plains.
Then the three families were divided into Jin Dynasty, and the heroes of the world competed with each other, and the war swept the world.
It has been more than five hundred years since King Ping of Zhou moved the capital to Luoyi, and wars continued day by day. The people of the world have been fighting hard for a long time.
The First Emperor knew that the people of the world were suffering, so he led the Qin cavalry to unify the six kingdoms to bring peace to the people of the world.
And it has only been eight years now, and you are telling me that everyone in the world is confused?
Five hundred and fifty years of longing for peace and longing for stability were completely consumed under the rule of Qin in just eight years?
Do the people of the world fear the First Emperor more than they fear the five hundred and fifty years of continuous war?
What is the First Emperor in your mind?
He took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart: "General, this is an extraordinary time. You must not be confused!"
He spoke earnestly: "If the First Emperor learns of this, I am afraid that the two of us and even the three thousand soldiers will not be spared!"
"The prophecies are nonsense. Although there are alchemists in our Qin Dynasty today who deceive the First Emperor and cause chaos among the people, it is just a scabies disease!"
"As long as I, the First Emperor of the Qin Dynasty, are here and the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty are also here, who can mess up our Qin Dynasty!"
Meng Tian frowned, hesitating slightly, and seemed to want to refute, but just as he was about to speak, a voice suddenly sounded at the door.
"Sir, please report urgently to Nanyang County!"
"It is said that the First Emperor has patrolled eastward to Nanyang County and is stationed at the Huyang Palace!"
"Master Xuan Fusu, General Meng Tian of Internal History, hurry to Huyang to see your majesty!"
Fusu stood up suddenly and looked at Meng Tian in surprise.
The First Emperor has arrived in Nanyang County?
And he specially summoned himself and Meng Tian?
Could it be that something secret happened?
"Prepare the car immediately and set off quickly!" He ordered loudly, ignoring Meng Tian.
Regardless of whether he already knew about Meng Tian's personal manipulation of the alchemists, if the First Emperor suddenly left Xianyang to patrol east, something big must have happened!
…
When Prince Fusu and General Meng Tian, escorted by a hundred guards, rushed to Huyang along the Qinzhi Road in light gear at starry night, they were in Yunmeng Mountain, above the Tianmen.
Qin Tian stood quietly on the top of the Tianmen, watching the clouds and mists billowing in the east and the glow gushing out.
After a long time, a red sun jumped out of the sea of clouds. Above the sea of clouds, there was a golden light, but deep in the golden light, there was a red light, which changed in thousands of ways.
It was obviously a rare sight, but there was no sign of appreciation on Qin Tian's face. Instead, there was a faint sigh.
"really."
"Changes in heaven and earth are inevitable!"
"It's a pity that my knowledge is still weak and I can't even calculate the magnitude of the changes."
Shaking his head slightly, Qin Tian's eyes swept over the pill furnace not far away.
The alchemy furnace is still spitting out glowing light. Refining qi is not something that can be completed overnight. This furnace will take at least three months to refine.
White cranes, white tigers, white turtles, and even the white deer that came belatedly that day were all obediently staying at the side of the alchemy furnace, adding medicine and firewood in an orderly manner.
As for the birds and beasts in the valley, they have left.
Refining Qi requires spiritual flowers and rare herbs, and these genius treasures all grow deep in Yunmeng Ze. These birds and beasts are here to prepare for the next furnace opening.
"I don't know what level I can reach before the sky changes."
Qin Tian sighed lightly again.
He is still in the beginningless state, and in the eyes of ordinary people, he is no different from a god.
However, Qin Tian knew that he had just entered Taoism!
What he has to face is the end of the Dharma era when cultivation has become a legend and a lie.
