Qin Gong

Chapter 358 Excuses Ying Kan, a precursor to a major event.

Handan City.

When Bai Yan led the cavalry to escort Ying Zheng and the Queen Mother to Handan, Wang Jian, Wang Ben, Meng Tian and other generals were already waiting outside the city.

Along the way, there were Qin army guards brought back by Meng Tian and Wang Ben, and Bai Yan's cavalry escorted them, nothing happened.

outside the city.

Bai Yan led Yan Mao, Yin Yi, Qiu Shan and other generals to stand in front of Wang Jian and others, and dismounted.

Bai Yan was not in a hurry to make a ceremony with Wang Jian and the others, because as the army stopped, Ying Zheng, who was in the six-horse carriage, had already come out of the carriage.

The Bai surname along the way had already knelt on the ground, not daring to look up.

Wang Jian and other generals saluted Ying Zheng after seeing him.

Naturally, Bai Yan was no exception, and he saluted Ying Zheng together.

Looking at Chai now, Bai Yan can see that Chai has been under a lot of pressure during this period.

At the beginning in Zhongmou City, Bai Yan didn't know the name of this doctor, but after traveling for three days, while taking care of the Empress Dowager, Bai Yan finally learned that the young Imperial Physician was named Xia Wuqie.

In the capital city.

It took three days to rush from Zhongmucheng to Handan without pawns or infantry.

"General?"

Why did Yingzheng sacrifice to the sky at Jingshi Mountain, why he valued scholars so much, and why when Old Wei was sent to Qin, Yingzheng dragged Old Wei to eat and live with him.

However, it is such a young man who is more willing to serve and do his best than everyone else.

Zhao Gao at the side also raised his hand to compose the ceremony.

Earlier, Bai Yan wanted to lead the troops to escort Ying Zheng and Queen Mother Zhao to Handan, and Chai led the troops to stay at Yanmen.

"However, General, before I left, Elder Wei had told you that you might still have a lot of trouble when you arrive at Yanmen."

At least after the Battle of Changping.

And seeing this, Bai Yan forgot the time.

Ying Zheng asked.

Bai Yan asked with a smile.

Since Zhao Ji fell into a coma on the second day after leaving Zhongmou City, big beds were prepared in advance in cities along the way.

Bai Yan came in front of Yingzheng, clasped his hands and complied.

Outside the palace gate.

Xia Wuju bowed to Bai Yan, then looked at Bai Yan and shook his head slowly.

Only Ying Zheng knew in his heart how humble this young man was.

While chatting with the eunuch, Bai Yan quickly saw that the eunuch drove a carriage slowly towards the side entrance of the Handan Palace, the carriage stopped, and six beautiful women with slender waists stepped out of the carriage.

Zhao Gao also raised his hand to salute Bai Yan, and then saluted each other with Xia Wu.

thought here.

Bai Yan also finally felt the importance of identity and bloodline. If Ying Kan hadn't had the bloodline of the ancestors of the Ying family, he might not have been relegated to that remote place.

Just as Bai Yan looked at the backs of Xia Wuqie and Zhao Gao and was lost in thought, an eunuch hurried over.

"Win Kan!"

I don't know how long ago.

Coming to the wooden frame, there were countless bamboo slips placed on each wooden frame, Bai Yan picked up a scroll and looked at it.

After Bai Yan watched Ying Zheng and Wang Jian get into the carriage, he turned to salute Wang Ben, Meng Tian and other generals, as well as other Qin officials and ministers.

Although Xia Wuqiu is not a disciple of Bian Que, but at a young age, he is well-known in the court of the Qin Dynasty for his medical skills, and he is also Ying Zheng's personal physician. He follows Ying Zheng all day long, even if he is Shang Dynasty is no exception.

Bai Yan cupped his hands in return, then watched Xia Wuqi leave with Zhao Gao.

Under the arrangement of Wang Jian and other generals, they were all guarded by Qin soldiers.

Bai Yan, Meng Tian and others rode war horses and escorted Ying Zheng to the palace. Except for a few people who thought they were talented broke in to see Ying Zheng, there was nothing else going on.

After Bai Yan finished speaking, he saluted Ying Zheng in front of everyone.

Naturally, Bai Yan understood that the owner of the mansion with such power in Handan would never be so powerful.

It's obvious that Bai Yan doesn't know what Ying Kan is doing.

Bai Yan sighed and walked towards Ying Zheng.

On this day, due to Ying Zheng's arrival, the entire Handan City was overcrowded, and everyone wanted to take a look, because everyone knew that it was possible that there was only one chance in a lifetime.

This Yingkan came to Handan to arrest someone in a good manner.

And counting the time, they all know.

Just as Bai Yan made the arrangements, an eunuch came to Bai Yan.

Bai Yan dared to say bluntly that this mansion is not bad.

Bai Yan did not accept his fate until he arrived in Zhongmou City, and Ying Kan sent people to Handan should have been earlier.

Bai Yan was a little puzzled when he heard Chai's words, and then he changed his mind, and soon realized that the only person who can give Wei Lao a headache in Yanmen, and he can't talk about it, is Zhao Qiu.

Bai Yan's heart, which was suspended for a moment, slowly fell to the ground. After days of running around, the tension in his heartstrings was finally relaxed.

two years.

After the ceremony.

Wang Ben, Meng Tian and other Qin officials, even Wang Jian, didn't notice that Li Chong, Li Ji, even Mao Jiao and old general Yang looked at Bai Yan, and couldn't help showing surprise or even astonishment. .

Ying Zheng's words made Meng Tian and Wang Ben at the side look at each other, knowing in their hearts that Ying Kan might be punished this time.

It means that the queen mother is still not awake at this moment.

Looking at the surrounding deployment and the guards on the tower, Bai Yan didn't dare to be careless during the whole process.

"Bai Yan, pay homage to the king!"

Yingzheng needs a reputation to rule the world, otherwise, how could Yingzheng attach so much importance to black clothing? All this comes from Zou Yan's theory of five virtues.

When he got up, Bai Yan naturally noticed that Li Ji and Mao Jiao looked at him with appreciative gazes, even Li Chong, the old governor of Longxi County, and Old General Yang were no exception.

Bai Yan raised his head and saw that Ying Zheng had turned and walked towards the palace, Wang Jian and other generals followed suit, heaved a sigh of relief.

Seeing the eunuch's expression, Bai Yan raised one hand to signal, and said as he walked.

If it weren't for Bai Yan's prestige.

The voice fell.

As an acquaintance, Chai was the one who taught Bai Yan how to ride a crossbow and shoot, and after that, Chai never left him, loyal to Bai Yan, and accompanied Bai Yan through life and death on the battlefield.

Two years ago, facing Ying Kan who despised him, Bai Yan could do what he did before, but he might not be able to exonerate Ying Kan as he did just now.

After watching Wang Ben and others return the gift, Bai Yan continued to ride in the carriage and ordered the whole army to enter the city.

After hearing Ying Zheng's words, Bai Yan knelt on the ground again to salute Ying Zheng.

Behind Zhao Gao, twenty or so burly men came carrying a wooden bed. The wooden bed was huge and covered with gauze, which made people look down on what it looked like inside.

At this time, Yan Mao stepped forward and came to Bai Yan's side, his eyes were full of doubts.

After Bai Yan finished speaking, he glanced at Ying Zheng and knelt on the ground.

"If it weren't for the general's previous actions to appease Zhao Bianqi, the general might have lost Yanmen long ago."

"Back to the king, Bai Yan did know that the previous investigation revealed that the people in Zhujiaxiang were worried that the king would come to Handan this time because of their arrogance and domineering in the early years, so they colluded with the thieves and contributed money to participate in the assassination of the king. Yan then discussed with Lord Ying Kan, and if the news leaked out, he ordered people to come to Handan to arrest him in advance."

Presumably the king would never blame Bai Yan for such a trivial matter.

Ying Zheng's dissatisfaction is false. That king can reject such a courtier, and that king can't like such a dedicated courtier.

Otherwise, not to mention the previous act of distributing food and millet to the people in Yanhe, even the gentry of other vassal states will be more determined to resist Qin after seeing Yingzheng destroying the country and still seeking personal revenge.

Ying Zheng is the king of the Qin Kingdom. If he wanted to kill the people in Zhujiaxiang directly, and it was Ying Kan's turn to do it, then Ying Kan would not use his brain. Temptation, followed by assassination.

After the confidant's voice fell, Bai Yan opened his mouth to let Chai in.

There were footsteps outside the door, and then a confidant shouted outside the door.

There are all kinds of rockeries, pavilions and so on in the mansion. Whether it is the corridors or the exquisite carvings on the wooden doors and windows, they all give people a pleasing feeling.

A maid replied cautiously when she heard Bai Yan's words.

Even the ministers of the enemy country can assassinate, a person from Zhujiaxiang in Handan, how could Yao Jia not be able to deal with those people from Zhujiaxiang.

Not to mention Wang Jian, Wang Ben, Meng Tian, ​​Meng Shu and others, they are the generals of the Qin Army under his command, the officials of the Qin State, and the gentry who have no way to please Ying Zheng. Those people are no more convenient than Ying Kan.

Seeing Bai Yan's tired face, Ying Zheng's eyes flashed softly.

After half an hour.

Not to mention, the relationship between Handan City and Yingzheng was heard by the people of Handan when Yingzheng succeeded to the throne as the King of Qin, or even earlier.

Thinking room.

After Bai Yan, Xia Wuqie, and Zhao Gao stepped back, they watched the eunuchs and maids carefully lift the unconscious Queen Mother from the carriage to the big bed, covered the quilt, and then were carried into the Handan Palace by the central guards.

Bai Yan smiled a little embarrassedly.

Ying Zheng, who had a gloomy face, naturally also saw Bai Yan.

"what happened?"

"Who was the former owner of this mansion?"

"So that's how it is! Thinking of your meritorious deeds in escorting Bai Yan, this matter will not be pursued any longer, and you must never do it again in the future!"

Wang Jian, Uncle Meng, Li Chong, Li Ji, Mao Jiao and the others all looked at Bai Yan who was walking hurriedly, wearing Qin Jia.

Yingzheng's carriage was accompanied by Wang Jian, and there were generals such as Meng Tian and Wang Ben outside. Old General Yang, Mao Jiao, Li Chong and others who would ride in the carriage behind would also come, so Bai Yan didn't join in the fun and turned around to steer the horses Go to the six-horse carriage in the back.

On the way, the eunuch said to Bai Yan while walking.

After being exposed to more and more things, Bai Yan is no longer the ignorant boy he was two years ago.

Bai Yan rarely likes a mansion from the bottom of his heart, but this mansion in front of him really likes it.

Looking at Bai Yan, Wang Jian, Wang Ben, Meng Tian and others all nodded when they heard that Bai Yan had forgotten about it because he was on his way.

"General Bai, Master Ying Kan secretly ordered people to come to Handan City with orders to arrest people before telling the king, and the king was furious when he found out."

Chai said.

After hearing Bai Yan's words, Ying Zheng's expression eased a lot.

When most of the gentry in Yanmen were eliminated in one fell swoop, not only Zhao Bianqi did not have the heart to resist in the past, but even the people of Yanmen did not have the idea of ​​resistance.

Bai Yan compiled the etiquette.

After a while.

Many old people in Handan have vaguely heard that after Qin Yiren, who was a hostage in Zhao State, fled Handan, he left a widow and a lonely couple in Handan.

"General White!"

Bai Yan asked.

Now in the state of Qin, Wei Liao, Li Si, Lord Changping and others who have received this honor, any one of them is a figure at the level of a master.

From the boy who relied on the sword in his hand, Bai Yan has become a general of the Qin State, possessing the title and status.

This had to make Zhao Ren sigh with emotion.

"Xia Yicheng, has the Queen Mother woke up?"

"Your Majesty, Bai Yan forgot to tell the Majesty about this while traveling along the road, and ask the Majesty to punish the crime of the humble minister!"

Fortunately, Bai Yan's previous actions not only exempted Zhao Bianqi from going to Qin for labor, but also distributed grain and millet to help the people of Yanmen, including Zhao Bianqi's family and his daughter.

In the eyes of other people, they all think that he is a descendant of the Bai family, and even the members of the Bai family think that he is from a famous family.

"Thank you, my lords!"

Looking at Bai Yan's youthful cheeks, his eyes were tired and couldn't hide the exhaustion. Wang Ben and Meng Tian knew that before Bai Yan personally led the troops to deal with so many rebels, and then he had to lead the troops in a hurry without a rest. They were so tired and exhausted. Under normal circumstances, a little negligence is also normal.

Because in addition to the ancient military books, these bamboo slips also recorded some secrets of Zhao State in detail. It can be seen that Lord Chunping was in a hurry when he left Handan, and there was no time to deal with these.

Watching Yan Mao take the order, turn around and leave, Bai Yan then turned around to arrange the matter of guarding the palace. Before Ying Kan led his troops to Handan, apart from Wang Jian's subordinates, Bai Yan would also leave some people behind for the palace guards. .

Regardless of whether those people in Zhujiaxiang will kill or not, this is a matter that can only be decided after Ying Zheng has seen it in person, and there must be a reason for killing.

Others don't know, but how could they, the officials who came along along the way, not know that Bai Yan and Ying Kan had disagreements along the way.

Right now he is helpless, he doesn't know when the queen mother will wake up, or even if she will wake up again.

Waited until Handan Palace.

"General Bai, Wang Shangnian, for his meritorious service in guarding the general, specially bestowed the general with his mansion in Shenxiang, South Street, and six dancing girls from the general's palace."

"Master Zhao!"

Recalling that in Luoyang, I would rather take risks than ensure that I was thorough along the way.

After the ceremony, Ying Zheng was talking, while Bai Yan focused on his surroundings.

In these three days, nothing but rushing is rushing.

"promise!"

"However, Old Wei didn't say anything, what trouble!"

In Handan, and even in Zhao State, many people have sighed in private. If they knew today, they should have killed Ying Zheng and Zhao Ji, the abandoned mother and son.

The eunuch came to Bai Yan to compose the ceremony.

However, the next moment, Bai Yan's words were beyond everyone's expectations.

Now that he finally arrived in Handan safely and without incident, Bai Yan was naturally relieved, and he didn't want any accidents to happen at this time.

Subsequently.

"Arrests?"

Seeing that after Ying Zheng met Meng Tian, ​​Wang Ben and others, he summoned the old general Wang Jian to take a carriage into the city together, Bai Yan was not surprised.

Not even a scholar.

Not to mention that after Handan was breached by the Qin State, if they wanted to do something, it would be their turn to win.

Now the state of Zhao is destroyed.

When Bai Yan heard that Ying Kan sent people to Handan to arrest people, he was full of doubts.

After Bai Yan returned the salute to Xia Wuqie, in deep thought, he saw Zhao Gao approaching, so he turned around and saluted Zhao Gao.

"Take the soldiers to the camp to repair first!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yan looked around, and then came to the study.

"My lord, the former mansion was the residence of Lord Chunping."

There are so many beautiful people in Handan, let alone the woman who was brought into the palace of Handan.

When Bai Yan heard the movement, she turned her head to look, feeling a little puzzled.

In front of Handan Palace.

When Bai Yan heard the ins and outs, he looked helpless, and finally understood why Ying Zheng was furious.

Bai Yan asked curiously, he had been to Guo Kai's mansion, and he had seen the scene inside Guo Kai's mansion.

After Empress Dowager Zhao became critically ill, not to mention that Ying Zheng didn't have the leisure to enjoy the scenery along the way, even Bai Yan was worried all the way, fearing that the Empress Dowager would have an accident, or be unlucky and encounter heavy snow.

"General Bai, the king ordered you to go there immediately."

Accompanied by the sound of footsteps coming in from outside the study, Bai Yan took the bamboo slips to look, and saw firewood that he hadn't seen for several months.

outside the city gate.

The eunuch also seemed to see Bai Yan's doubts, and then told Bai Yan softly that Ying Kan was arresting people from Zhujiaxiang.

"How about Yanmen?"

All of this needs to be seen by the world.

Elder Wei had received this honor at the beginning, but later on, Elder Wei left Qin very early.

"Bai Yan, do you know about Ying Kan arresting someone privately?"

Xia Wuju turned around and saluted Bai Yanji.

Bai Yan got off the horse, watched the doctor come out of the carriage after a while, and asked softly.

After hearing this, Bai Yan frowned slightly, and glanced at the palace gate in the distance.

Then Chai told Bai Yan that since Bai Yan led the iron cavalry away, no less than dozens of people were caught by the secret agents sent by Daidi alone. Almost all of those people had one purpose, which was to lobby tens of thousands of Zhao Bianqi. General, launched a rebellion in Yanmen.

Now that we have arrived at the Handan Palace, why does the eunuch look anxious, as if something happened.

Bai Yan came to the mansion that Ying Zheng rewarded him, and just entered the mansion, Bai Yan was taken aback by the scale of the mansion.

On the main road from the city gate to Handan Palace.

Chai came in front of Bai Yan, clapped his hands together and saluted.

Bai Yan didn't explain too much to Yan Mao.

When Chai heard Bai Yan's words, he had a wry smile on his face.

Just like what happened in Yanmen last time, the young man in front of him still wouldn't give his name and embarrassment to him, the King of Qin.

Looking at the exquisite and elegant study in front of me, the spacious room is equipped with a stove, etc. Tiger skins, mink skins, etc. are hung on the wooden frame in the corner, and the beautiful view of the pool outside is visible from the wooden window.

While the eunuch was speaking, he then let an eunuch leave.

"Chai, meet the general!"

After all, after eating the grain and millet sent by Bai Yan, after experiencing drought, famine, and looting and selling, all the people and Zhao Bianqi knew who was good and who was not.

So when Bai Yan saw Chai, he was not only a general under his command, but also like an elder brother.

And the one who sent troops to destroy the state of Zhao was the boy Yingzheng who was hiding in Handan back then.

"General, Captain Chai came to report."

"General White!"

If this is the case, it should come as no surprise.

"Here! My humble minister Bai Yan, thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Bai Yan thank you, Your Majesty!"

The eunuch bowed again to Bai Yan, then nodded, and made a gesture of invitation to Bai Yan.

Now Bai Yan has to think more, not only about himself, but also about all his relationships and contacts, and more importantly, Ying Zheng and the clansmen of the Ying family.

Bai Yan looked at the six women who were organizing the ceremony, but he didn't take it seriously. After the six women got into the carriage, he bid farewell to the eunuch.

Looking at the Qin generals standing in front of the palace not far away, Bai Yan naturally also saw Ying Zheng not far away.

···········
sunset.

"General Bai, if nothing else, I will send the Queen Mother to rest with Mr. Zhao first."

With Wang Jian's ability and seniority in Qin, it is not surprising that he won this honor after leading the army to destroy Zhao, and even Yingzheng attached great importance to it.

Back then, even if Yanmen was strictly guarded, and Yanmen was not lost, those Zhao Bianqi would be incited, and they would flee to Daidi after launching a rebellion.

As Chai talked, he told Wei Lao's instructions.

Look at this young man, General Qin.

It is estimated that Zhao Qiu already knew that he lied to her back then, and he must have met Bao in the mansion.

"It's okay! We'll talk about it when we get back to Yanmen! You go back to wash up first, and the king will hold a banquet in the palace tonight."

Bai Yan didn't want to pay attention to the affairs of Yanmen right now, so he took two scrolls of bamboo slips from the wooden frame and handed them to Chai.

"When you leave the mansion, give these to Ye, and ask Ye Ming to investigate the people in this scroll!"
