Chapter 150: Liu Bai fell ill yesterday and his brain was burned out?
The next day, inside the Qilin Hall.
There are hundreds of officials standing there, all with solemn expressions.
And Ying Che, who was previously allowed by His Majesty the First Emperor to take part in political affairs, did not come today because Zhang Han received a verbal message from His Majesty the First Emperor last night. He was sentenced for the Xianyang Order and asked him to assist Prince Gao in safeguarding the stability of Xianyang today. Consider observing local government affairs.
"In addition to hoarding grain and grass in Sangqian County, Daijun, we ordered the four counties of Dangcheng, Gaoliu, Pingyi, and Yangyuan to repair ordnance and prepare enough grain and grass."
"There are good horses produced in Mayi City this year. All of them will be trained in the army and transported to Dai County in the north."
"Recruit the people and connect the Xingyang water system!" (The six rivers in Xingyang are connected and it was the material transfer and distribution place after Qin unified the world.)
"Order to recruit two thousand blacksmiths to Xingyang to repair ordnance."
"..."
The decrees were read out one after another, and all the ministers were shocked.
These were all decrees issued directly by His Majesty the First Emperor, without any consultation by the ministers in the court.
Such drastic measures are aimed at only one target: the Xiongnu!
However,
Unlike other countries, in the face of this extremely obvious signal of war, the attitude shown by the court officials was...
excited!
Extremely excited!
Not only the veteran generals who fought out of the sea of blood from the corpse mountain were gearing up, but even the civil servants also had joy in their eyes at this moment.
The old Qin people were good at martial arts, and it was not as simple as simply liking to fight.
In Qin, war means...military merit!
In the war against the Huns, no matter whether it was offensive or defensive, no one was afraid!
When the world was first settled, the Xiongnu Chanyu led an invasion of 80,000 wolf soldiers. Wang Jian, despite the "one to thirty" loss of material transportation, defeated the Xiongnu and fled back to the grassland.
Now that Da Qin has rested and even had a three-piece set of war horses, is it still afraid of those wolf cubs from the Xiongnu?
Liu Bai glanced at Wang Jian and found that the Great Qin God of War had his eyes slightly closed, and he had some suspicions in his mind.
It seems...
The secret letter from Jin Lingjian yesterday was about the Xiongnu.
but,
The decrees of His Majesty the First Emperor seem to be both offensive and defensive, but in reality they are more offensive.
In short, he was calm on the surface, but in fact he sharpened the sword on his waist to be extremely sharp. As long as the Xiongnu dared to stretch out his hand, he would directly stab him with the sword, and Qian Tanniang would be completely heartbroken!
but,
It is these decrees that more intuitively reflect His Majesty the First Emperor's control over the entire empire.
If you don't move, you'll be dead, if you move, you'll be filled with murderous intent!
"My lord, Li Xin, please fight!"
"My lord, Aobiao, please fight!"
"minister...."
"..."
Voices calling for battle came and went one after another.
As long as there is a war, none of these Da Qin veterans will be timid.
Li Si looked indifferent, but in his mind he was constantly coordinating the distribution of materials.
This is the tacit understanding of the virtuous ministers and generals of the previous generation who conquered the world!
However, a majestic voice sounded from the high platform, making everyone stunned!
"The war has not started yet, why are the generals asking for battle?"
His Majesty the First Emperor tapped his fingers on the table slightly, with a very dull expression on his face.
"Well?"
Not to mention the generals who had blood rushing up in their heads and wished they could fly to Daijun to kill the Huns' wolf soldiers, even Liu Bai was dumbfounded at this moment.
Your Majesty... is clearly lying to us!
Looking at Wang Jian again, his expression remained the same.
Liu Bai cursed the old fox countless times in his heart, and he was really going to die of anger.
No wonder Wang Jian was so calm. He had already discussed this with His Majesty the First Emperor!
This 'war has not started yet', it is obvious that His Majesty the First Emperor is waiting for the opportunity, for fear that the famous generals in the court will go to the north and alert the enemy!
As for Daijun in the north... With such a series of decrees, if Zhao Tuo was caught off guard by the Huns, he would just wipe his neck with a knife.
"Your Majesty, I apologize!"
Just when everyone was stunned, a voice sounded.
It was the old general Wang Jian.
This sentence of 'please apologize' made everyone a little confused!
Wang Jian pleads guilty? This old general is not even willing to get involved in political affairs. What is the crime?
"The dog made a big fuss at the Xianyang government office yesterday, using his status as a soldier to get involved in local civil affairs!"
"I beg your Majesty to punish the dog!"
Wang Jian spoke slowly.
When these words were spoken, the officials understood instantly!
What a prudent old general!
There is no need to talk about such a trivial matter in court!
There was a big fuss in the Xianyang government office. It was Prime Minister Liu who was there yesterday. Strictly speaking, Wang Bi was at best there to help.
Now that Wang Jian has spoken out about this matter, he clearly refuses to leave any clue.
but...
It was Wang Jian's caution that made some civil servants have a better impression of the Wang family.
Liu Bai frowned slightly.
This old general...is a little too cautious! Besides, yesterday, Tongwuhou and Wang Ben clearly looked very measured. Why should he apologize today?
"Reward for merit and punishment for punishment, this is the majesty of the law, and it is also the code of strictness in the court!"
"Wang Ben interfered in local civil affairs. Although he was excusable, he still had to be demoted."
However, His Majesty the First Emperor, who was on the high platform, had no intention of opening the net at all. Instead, he said:
"Marquis Tongwu has made great achievements in battle, but this is a minor offense. He will not be demoted from his military position, nor will his title be reduced."
"Order him to go to Daijun in the north to patrol the border and guard the border."
As soon as His Majesty the First Emperor's decree came out, everyone was dumbfounded!
Good guy, that’s it!
All the generals immediately wanted to vomit blood!
Co-author General Wang's apology...is this intentional? ! ! !
No wonder His Majesty the First Emperor said that "the war has not started yet" and did not allow these generals to ask for a fight. The co-author and General Wang had already decided to let Wang Ben go to Daijun in the north!
and...
It was still in the form of punishment, which could not be concealed from the generals like them, but it could be concealed from the common people.
Now the national policy of the Qin Dynasty is to recuperate. With this war going on, according to the character of the old Qin people, they must throw away their hoe and run north to join the army!
On the contrary, it is a 'punishment', and it determines the Daijun without shocking the people!
Liu Baibai was dumbfounded.
Nest grass? Didi ride on behalf of you? Is the tacit understanding between king and minister so deep? His Majesty the First Emperor openly said that there was no war, but the old general secretly sent his son to the north as punishment?
Why didn't I think of that?
"Your Majesty, I also made a big fuss at the Xianyang government office yesterday. This is also the case. This northern county is patrolling the border, and I..."
Liu Bai stood up quickly and spoke directly.
No, you must get on this ride of military success!
"The words of Prime Minister Liu are wrong. You are Prime Minister Wen. The Xianyang Order made a huge mistake. Prime Minister Liu found out and punished you. You are not at fault!"
However,
Before Liu Bai finished speaking, Wang Jian spoke.
This sentence made Liu Bai's chest feel extremely tight!
Good guy, you don’t even give me a chance to apologize these days, do you?
At this moment, Liu Bai realized how cunning the Wang family father and son were!
Wang Ben seemed to be a reckless man, but he was able to say something like "Some things are not convenient" that day. It was obvious that he had completely grasped the situation.
Wang Jian was in the court, and because the development of this matter was under control, he happened to send Wang Ben to the north and stopped him Liu Bai.
"Old General! I don't care! I made a mistake too! Your Majesty, you must punish me!"
"I even slapped Xianyang Ling in the mouth that day!"
"This is not law enforcement procedure!"
Liu Bai's heart suddenly changed and he immediately acted like a rogue!
In any case, the truth about Daijun in the north has been determined!
When these words were spoken, all the officials in the court were dumbfounded.
what's the situation?
Prime Minister Liu, who is sharp-tongued, refuses to take any responsibility, and never says he has made any mistakes, insists on being punished by His Majesty today?
Were you sick yesterday and your brain burned out?
