Mi Rong was furious at the moment. He couldn't see Empress Dowager Xuan, so he went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find Wei Ran. Only when he arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion did he find out that Wei Ran had been left by King Qin Zhao in the back hall to discuss matters!

Then Mi Rong and others had a very bad premonition when they saw Lord Jingyang, Lord Gaoling, who also sought an audience with the Queen Mother to no avail.King Qin Zhao excluded them from the discussion in the apse!
"Brother Wang, why are you like this?" Lord Jingyang said, feeling that everything happened too suddenly, without any warning.

Mi Rong felt vaguely in his heart that it might be related to the matter he had discussed with the Queen Mother a few days ago.

The three of them decided to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find Wei Ran later, and went home worriedly.

At this time, only King Qin Zhao and Wei Ran were in the back hall.On King Zhao's desk were some bamboo slips, which clearly listed the crimes committed by Lord Jingyang, Lord Gaoling and their clansmen.

"There are also some culpable people in my family. I have thoroughly investigated them and listed them above. Please handle them according to the law!" Wei Ran said to King Qin Zhao respectfully when he saw the ugly look on King Qin Zhao's face.

King Qin Zhao thought for a long time, finally looked at Wei Ran and said with a smile:
"Xiangbang does not need to blame himself too much. Xiangbang is busy with state affairs all day long, worrying about the Qin Dynasty, and it is possible that he neglects to discipline his family. It is not a big deal, so there is no need to make it known to everyone. Xiangbang's family, Xiangbang Bang just teaches him a lesson in private."

Upon hearing this, Wei Ran quickly shouted to thank the king.The meaning of King Qin Zhao's words was to ask Wei Ran to take care of his own people and stop committing any trouble, and he would not pursue the rest.This is undoubtedly a way to save Wei Ran's entire face.

As for the remaining Lord Jingyang and Lord Gaoling, King Qin Zhao looked ugly. After thinking for a long time, his expression finally calmed down and he said:

"Zhao Lianpo will attack Qi and be invincible all the way, but there is not much left in Qi. I am afraid that Lianpo will return to the court soon. After all, Zhao Guo is the enemy of Qin Guodong. It is said that there is no danger. A, but armament manufacturing cannot stop.

Lord Jingyang and Lord Gaoling are now extremely wealthy. Even the treasury of Great Qin is not as full as theirs, so let them donate some to strengthen Great Qin's armaments. "

King Qin Zhao threw the bamboo slips aside and decided what to do with Ying Fu and Ying Kui.

As for Mi Rong.King Qin Zhao didn't say anything. He wanted to see what Mi Rong would do after knowing his attitude towards Lord Jingyang and Lord Gaoling!
Wei Ran breathed a sigh of relief, exited the back hall, and returned to his Prime Minister's Mansion.

After a while, one of his subordinates came to report to him secretly that King Qin Zhao reported that Lord Jingyang and Lord Gaoling had entered the palace.It is said that after the two monarchs entered the palace, the king dismissed all the palace people around him. After that, King Qin Zhao's shouts and curses came from the palace. Although the people outside could not hear the specific content, Lord Jingyang and Lord Gaoling must have been beaten for a long time. The scolding was correct.

Two hours later, Lord Jingyang and Lord Gaoling left the palace, their faces ashen, and then they went back to their homes to claim their illnesses and announced that they would see no visitors in a short time!
People in Xianyang City gradually heard about this news, and everyone immediately realized what was happening. People who used to try their best to cling to the "Four Nobles" became silent for a while, and did not even dare to hold ordinary gatherings.

After another three or five days, the upper echelons of Xianyang, who were overwhelmed by the power of King Qin Zhao, finally felt a little relieved. Mi Rong was also very low-key these days, not only seriously starting to arrange the marriage between Gan Mi and Gong Zizhu. Yi also donated a large amount of money to the national treasury to collect grain and build weapons and armor, etc.

Also donating a large amount of money were Jingyang Lord and Gaoling Lord.Not only that, many people from the clan of these two monarchs were punished, and it was said that some of their relatives were even beaten to death.

But no matter what, the officials felt that King Qin Zhao's majesty had become more powerful, and everyone was more energetic when dealing with court affairs and handling their duties, and no one dared to make mistakes.

On this day, Jiang Ruoyang was busy very late at the Prime Minister's Mansion. It was also because there had been a lot of "donations" recently, so Jiang Ruoyang's work suddenly increased a lot, and checking accounts was very labor-intensive.

As the prime minister, Wei Ran had heavy duties, so he was naturally busy late. When he saw the sky, Wei Ran said to Jiang Ruoyang, "It's too late. Situ Yang stays here and has a simple meal."

It's quite late, but it's actually just after eight o'clock in the evening, but in this era, this is indeed the time when many people go to bed.

Hearing this, Jiang Ruoyang refused, but Wei Ran asked to stay, and Jiang Ruoyang agreed obediently.

When the servants had all eaten and drank, Wei Ran dismissed them all with a wave of his hand. He mentioned the wine prince and said to Jiang Ruoyang:

"The truth has been ups and downs in the Qin court for many years, but just guessing about the king's heart, it is not as good as Situ. Come, the truth respects you."

"Don't dare, Xiangbang is too polite. The so-called authorities are obsessed, Jiang is just a little reminder."

Wei Ran shook his head:
"No, if my son hadn't delivered the letter in time, today's situation wouldn't be like this. Maybe Wei would be like Ying Fu Ying Kui, thanking guests behind closed doors."

Only then did the audience realize that on the night when the Jiang family played poker, Jiang Chiyu actually sent a letter to Wei Ran!So the audience was curious about the content of the letter.

"Xiangbang is different from other princes. Xiangbang has worked hard for the Qin Dynasty and made great achievements. As long as the king can believe that Xiangbang's original intention remains unchanged, the king will not care about many things."

"Well. The truth about Tao Yi is really not considered. Fortunately, you reminded me in time." Wei Ran said, "Anyway, I still have to thank Situ Yang!"

After Jiang Anrao's explanation, the audience finally understood the cause and effect.

It turned out that after Jiang Anrao had said what he said to Bai Qi, the Jiang family saw Jin Shou entering the palace again at night. After some discussion, they asked Jiang Chiyu to send a letter to Wei Ran while it was dark.

The content was still to persuade Wei Ran to cut off his tail to survive before King Qin Zhao got really angry and turned against him.

First of all, because Wei Ran has the highest status and wants to protect himself, he can no longer be too close to the Queen Mother and others like in the past.Furthermore, Wei Ran had already sent people to capture Tao from the Song Dynasty. Because of Tao's wealth, it was a place that everyone in the country coveted.

Wei Ran originally planned to use Tao as his fief after he captured Tao.But Jiang Ruoyang persuaded him to give up this plan. Tao must be handed over to King Qin Zhao!
Wei Ran was originally undecided, but by chance, the Queen Mother called Jiang Anrao over and gave Jiang Anrao a lesson.Jiang Anrao took advantage of the topic and came to the Prime Minister's Mansion.Jiang Ruoyang cooperated with his daughter, and the father and daughter performed in front of Wei Ran.

Jiang Ruoyang: Opportunities are clearly created in front of you, Xiangbang, what are you waiting for?

Wei Ran hesitated for a long time, and finally made up his mind and entered the palace.
