Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 299 Serving the king with the Tao, to the kings Yao and Shun! (Third update)

Hu Hai looked troubled.

There was still some hesitation in his heart.

He can only be regarded as a supervisor at best, and does not have much real power. If he gives the order as the Master of Da Qin and his father knows about it, he will definitely cause dissatisfaction, and it will be difficult for him to explain it.

see.

Zhao Gao smiled and said: "Your Highness, there is no need to worry. Your Majesty's purpose of patrolling this time is to pacify the world. In addition to cleaning up the internal affairs, he also wants to wipe out the remnants of the Six Kingdoms and the noisy scholars. My son will accompany your Majesty on the patrol." For some time now, I have heard a lot of rumors, many of which slander His Majesty, and most of these rumors are written by scholars."

"The mouth of defending the people is better than defending Sichuan."

"These scholars have the intention to disrupt the government, and they have the power to make noise and plan. How can we continue to let them go?"

"Words can cause chaos, and chaos can destroy a country!"

"Can Young Master An harm the country's affairs because of his petty self?"

"If you can use this to arrest some scholars, it will be like cutting off the rebels. Without these scholars making noise and causing trouble, the world of Qin will definitely be solid."

"Master, don't hesitate any longer."

"This opportunity must not be missed, and the time will never come again. Your Majesty finally gave the young master a chance to perform. If the young master misses it this time, the next time will be unknown. Moreover, your majesty has been worried in the past that the young master will have the ability to stand alone. Now, This is your chance to prove yourself."

"When it breaks, it breaks."

Zhao Gao continued to induce Hu Hai to agree.

finally.

Under Zhao Gao's constant persuasion, Hu Hai was still moved. He also wanted to prove to his father that he was not useless and that he also had certain strengths.

And what Zhao Gao said is right. The world knows how noisy the scholars are. Especially in the past two years, the nobles of the six countries, together with the scholars, have concocted too many rumors and prophecies in the world. He is deeply disgusted with this. If he can Taking action can be regarded as a good thing to secure the country and the people.

Think about it.

Hu Hai nodded and said, "What Zhao Qing said is absolutely true."

"Just do as Zhao Qing says."

Hearing that Hu Hai finally relented, Zhao Gao looked overjoyed and said quickly: "I will go down and deliver the order right now."

Then he quickly conveyed the order.

Looking at Zhao Gao's three-step and two-step posture, Hu Hai couldn't help but laugh, and then he couldn't help but sigh. Zhao Gao was thinking too hard. He was always forcing himself to get ahead, do more things, and seek fame. What was his intention? How could he not see that every time Zhao Gao's words could move him, he could not help but be moved, and even fall deeper and deeper into it.

a long time.

Hu Hai said sadly: "Zhao Gao, you clearly know that the crown prince of Qin has been established. You are clearly hurting me by encouraging me to take the lead."

"What should I do if one day I feel jealous of my eldest brother?"

"You really hurt me."

Hu Hai's eyes were full of sorrow.

Inside the wine house in the city of Hengshan County.

Compared with the liveliness of the previous few days, the wine house seemed lifeless at this moment.

Even though the seats were packed, not many people spoke.

I don't know how long it took, but Lu Zhonglian finally couldn't suppress it and cursed angrily: "The Qin Dynasty will be destroyed if it is violent!"

"Killing people without calculation, with mountains of bones filling the mouths of the world, cutting off the path to literature, burning three generations of classics, and now killing officials. Such an unethical country and an unruly king who deviates from the royal government will not be able to survive even if they are ten years old." To quell the resentment of the world, Emperor Qin will not perish, and the laws of heaven cannot tolerate it!"

Lu Zhong cursed loudly.

In the past few days, he had heard that the imperial court had slaughtered the counties near Yunmeng, and he was also severely frightened. Since he became literate, he had never heard of such a cruel and unscrupulous monarch, who dared to slaughter the officials and officials. He didn't think about the nobility of the scholar-bureaucrats, so he was so arrogant and arrogant, how could he not feel angry.

The person killed today is an official, but tomorrow it may be me!

That is a noble scholar who is serving as an official!
Once the killing of nobles and scholars becomes the norm, won't these scholars no longer have any face to speak of?

How is that different from ordinary Guizhou?
They have read so many books and are familiar with so many articles, how can they be the same as the lowly Guizhou people?This is something that scholars like Lu Zhonglian absolutely cannot and cannot accept. They are noble scholars. They should be aloof and respected by others. How can they be killed and killed?

This is retrograde.

It goes against the right path of the world!

at the same time.

Lu Zhonglian and others finally felt scared.

They have completely realized that Qin Ting really dares to kill people.

He really knows how to kill people.

The previous killing of alchemists and Confucian scholars was not a special case.

But a solemn warning.

But how did the scholars like them accept this huge gap?

Since they were studying, they have accepted the understanding that scholars are superior to others.

Xu Yi's face was equally ugly.

He really didn't expect that Qin Ting would be so crazy and dare to openly attack the officials of Guandong. Isn't Qin Ting really afraid of chaos in Guandong?There were only ten thousand soldiers around the First Emperor. How dare the First Emperor dare? Is the First Emperor really not afraid of making enemies of the world's scholars?
They are scholars.

It is also the most noble existence in the past hundreds of years.

Why did they become street rats after the world was unified?

This is simply unheard of.

A Confucian scholar wearing a Confucian crown stood up and said with a gloomy face: "The Qin Dynasty is ruthless and murders officials for their own selfish interests. It is openly contrary to the world. How can we, the scholars, sit idly by and do nothing? How can we allow violence? Qin is rampant? Now the people in Guandong are panicked and the soldiers are in dire straits. This is the time for us to take action."

"The Qin Dynasty is unruly, and everyone will punish it."

"Everyone in the local government is in danger now, and many of them are dissatisfied with Qin Ting. If we can use this to win over Qin Ting, it will be enough to increase the anti-Qin power. If we can cause trouble around Yunmeng, it will definitely cost Qin Ting a lot. National strength waxes and wanes, but we may not be able to bring the world back on track."

A word fell.

It also won a houseful of applause.

Many scholars shouted excitedly: "That's right."

"Qin Ting went too far to deceive others."

"How can we scholars just let others slaughter us?"

"If you cut off one city today and ten cities tomorrow, what face will we, the scholars, have in the world from now on? How will we have the face to stand in the world?"

"The nobility of our scholars was created by the sages of the past generations. How can we allow a tyrant and some tyranny to be easily wiped out? We will punish such unjust and slanderous acts on behalf of heaven."

"Correct."

"We have to fight back."

"Otherwise Qin Ting will only become more aggressive towards us."

"By then we will really be like those lowly Guizhou leaders. I don't want to be associated with those lowly Guizhou leaders."

"." Xu Yi and other scholars were furious.

Their dissatisfaction with Qin Ting has reached the extreme.

In the past, it was tolerated because Qin Ting had not touched the bottom line, but this time, Qin Ting touched the most sensitive and vulnerable part of the scholars, that is, they dared to directly attack the officials. Although they have not yet become officials, they have long since Claiming to be important ministers in the court, they compare themselves to Guan Zhongleyi, and even dream of using their talents in the world.

It's just that the Qin court punished officials and even directly set a precedent for killing.

This is not an example.

Instead, there were dozens or even hundreds, which shocked them.

Because in the long run, wouldn't scholars really become the emperor's slaves?Can you just let others slaughter you?

Is this what the scholars want?
What they admire is that the monarch and the scholar-bureaucrats rule the world together.

Furthermore, he served the king with the Tao and served the kings Yao and Shun.

At this moment, a scholar stood up and poured a basin of cold water on everyone.

The man said: "Is it just us?"

"Without the help of the nobles of the Six Nations, we might not even dare to cause trouble. Now most of the nobles of the Six Nations near Yunmeng have hidden elsewhere. Those who stay nearby are mostly ruffians and some old people who are inconvenient to take away. Weak women and children, the Qin army raided and captured some before, but now we don’t have much strength near Yunmeng.”

"Qin Ting is so quick to attack now. If we go down personally and are discovered by Qin Ting's people, we may not be able to escape this disaster."

heard.

Everyone was silent.

Lu Zhonglian said angrily: "If all the nobles of the six countries here had not fled, how could the Qin people be allowed to be so rampant? With our wisdom and the power of the nobles of the six countries in Guandong, supplemented by this incident, we can make it happen Kanto is in chaos, but it is a pity that we are unable to do so now, so we can only waste such a great opportunity."

"Is it true that God will never destroy Qin?!"

Xu Yi couldn't help but frown as he listened to Lu Zhonglian's words.

He suddenly thought of what Kuai Che said before.

He asked in surprise: "Do you still remember what Kuai Che said before? He seemed to have said that we were fooled. Qin Ting was not targeting us, but chose to do the opposite and take someone by surprise. Could this be the case? Qin Ting’s real intention?”

heard.

Everyone was shocked.

Lu Zhonglian showed displeasure and said coldly: "Don't be alarmist here. How could Qin Ting have such knowledge? Moreover, Kuai Che was in a poor family. If he hadn't studied for several years, how could he be with me?" ? But he has only read so many books, and how knowledgeable can he be? How dare he discuss such crucial matters?"

"He also asked us to flee Hengshan County as soon as possible."

"Do you believe this?"

"It's just a humble guy who is trying to please others by making some lofty remarks."

"Why take it seriously?"

Lu Zhonglian is a well-known scholar. He has a high status in the hearts of scholars. When they heard Lu Zhonglian's refutation, everyone nodded repeatedly and even ridiculed Kuai Che for being as timid as a mouse.

The atmosphere in the venue relaxed slightly.

Just when Lu Zhonglian and others were cursing Qin Zheng's immorality and enjoying the sensuality, a large number of soldiers suddenly surrounded the wine house. Zhao Gao stood in front of the soldiers and looked at the decoration. The exquisite wine house showed a cold look in his eyes.

He shouted loudly to all around him: "This time, on the orders of Young Master Hu Hai, I am here to arrest the nobles and scholars who are plotting restoration."

"My request is only one."

"You just can't let anyone go."

"If you let one person escape, don't blame me, Zhao Gao, for turning against him and denying him."

"remember."

"Who are you working for?"

Zhao Gao shouted a few words, then waved his sleeves, signaling to the soldiers to break down the door and arrest people.

Guarded by his soldiers, he waited for the final result.

Following Zhao Gao's order, dozens of soldiers rushed in and rushed into the tavern. Following a burst of panic and shouts from inside the tavern, dozens of soldiers wearing brocade uniforms were captured. , Lu Zhonglian, Xu Yi and others were all inside, and they were still a little confused at the moment.

They were having a good time drinking and scolding, but suddenly a group of armored soldiers rushed in and restrained them without saying a word.

After this commotion, Lu Zhonglian and others finally woke up.

Looking at the armored soldiers in front of him, his expression changed greatly. Lu Zhonglian said in a trembling voice: "What's going on? We were just drinking inside. How could we be caught? Is there any misunderstanding?" , we are all innocent, and we know many officials in the county."

"Misunderstanding?" Zhao Gao sneered. He reached out and took off the bamboo crown Lu Zhonglian was wearing, threw it directly to the ground, pressed it hard with his feet, and said coldly: "There is no misunderstanding, I, Zhao Gao, caught it. You restorationists."

"Are you scholars so afraid of death?"

"Dare to do it but dare not admit it?"

Xu Yi looked horrified and said: "Chief official, are you being wronged?"

"How can I, a weak scholar, dare to rebel against Qin? I never dare to have such thoughts."

"I'm really wronged."

Zhao Gao looked cold, glanced at Xu Yi indifferently, and said disdainfully: "No need to cry anymore, I am following the orders of Young Master Hu Hai this time, how can I disobey your orders? And you should know that the court has arrested many people in the past few days. Many officials were arrested, and it was these officials who gave evidence to you."

"As for whether you are unjustly accused, you will naturally find out when you go to prison."

"Come here, take it away."

Zhao Gao didn't want to talk to these scholars at all. He waved his hand with disgust in his eyes and motioned to the sergeants beside him to take these scholars away as soon as possible. Then he straightened his clothes and said to the onlookers with a solemn expression: "My Majesty's closest attendant, Zhao Gao, is here to arrest the scholars of the Qin Dynasty, under the order of Young Master Hu Hai. These scholars have deceived the public with their monstrous words and deceived people's hearts many times. They intend to stir up strife in the world, ignore your life and death, and trap the world." Master Hu Hai knew about the fire and water and couldn't bear the world being in trouble, so he ordered his subordinates to take action to rectify the country's laws, clarify the new policies, and suppress restoration."

"When the official came, Master Hu Hai made it clear."

"I would like to warn those in the world who want to restore the country, Mr. Hu Hai will not be private to the world, and will never allow anyone to cause trouble. If the world dares to try to restore the country again, and make noise and commotion among the remnants and scholars of the six countries, Mr. Hu Hai will definitely use ten thousand thunderbolts to Wipe them out and destroy the names and reputations of these restorationists."

"You must remember this."

After Zhao Gao said these words, he left directly.

The people around him were left looking at each other.

Zhao Gao's pace did not stop, and soon appeared in other places in Zhu City, killing all the remnants of the Six Kingdoms nearby. At the same time, he also deliberately spread Hu Hai's reputation, and waited for Zhao Gao to tell the officials in Zhu City who might be hiding the remnants of the Six Kingdoms. It was already late at night after he finished searching the place, and during this trip, he captured hundreds of remnants and scholars from the Six Nations.

A lot of gains.

When Zhao Gao finished reporting the matter and returned to his residence, he already had a letter in his hand.

This is a letter from Xianyang.

Looking at the familiar mud prints on it, Zhao Gao's heart moved slightly, the corners of his mouth curved up, and he whispered: "Yan Le, I'm telling you such an important thing, you shouldn't let me down, right? If it's Xianyang's If things work out, Master Hu Hai will have a greater chance of ascending to the throne."

Done.

Zhao Gao broke open the mud seal and took out the letter inside.

only one glance.

Zhao Gao was stunned.
