Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 448: If the king wants his minister to die, he must die (please give me a monthly recommendation vote!)

"The captain took the initiative to come to see His Majesty the Emperor today. This is a rare thing."

"In my opinion, the arrogance of the Meng family is too high. When the late emperor was alive, our prime minister was driving in the city, and when he encountered Ting Wei Meng Yi, he would take the initiative to stop the car."

"There is such a thing."

"That's not true. Although Ting Wei was highly valued by the late emperor, he would ride with the car when he went out, and he would be accompanied by his attendants when he came in. However, in terms of age and status in the court, no matter what, the prime minister should not take the initiative to stop for him. The reason why the prime minister will The reason for being so polite to Ting Wei is actually because Ting Wei Meng Yi's elder brother, Guard Captain Meng Tian."

"The two Mengshi brothers are indeed very powerful ministers in our Qin Dynasty. One is outside and the other is inside, and they are both high-ranking and powerful. It is no wonder that the prime minister wants to be courteous to him. It is not surprising why Mengshi is feared by His Majesty. The arrogance of these two brothers is so high, coupled with the military achievements accumulated by the ancestors of the Meng family in the past, these two brothers are even higher than the arrogance of the Wang family back then..."

These eunuchs were chattering and were soon discovered.

"You guys, if you don't do your job well, what are you talking about?"

Changshi dispersed these people.

After hearing this, Feng Changan felt as if he had woken up from a dream.

He originally thought that the palace and court were very peaceful, but at the court today, he also felt that all the ministers who walked into the palace on the road had friendly faces, and everything was peaceful and beautiful, just like the calm lake in the palace.

But he didn't expect that there were so many undercurrents surging underneath.

Based on what he saw and heard today, Feng Changan naturally felt that the emperor had a hand on everyone.

Thinking about it, he shouldn't have been a servant in the first place, just think about the expressions of his grandfather and his father.

Come to think of it, his grandfather also had to compromise with His Majesty because he was promoted, which led to the reorganization of Shangshutai.

But who would have thought that there is such a layer of content in it.

This chancery is used to confront the Prime Minister.

When Feng Changan thought this way, he felt that the Feng family had been tricked by the emperor.

Feng Changan couldn't wait to go home and tell his father about this, but it wasn't time to hand over the shift yet.

……

……

……

Inside Zhangtai Palace.

Fusu was handling military and political matters in the court today, which made Meng Tian feel uncomfortable for a long time.

During the time when Meng Tian said nothing, Meng Tian was thinking about one thing.

Is their Meng family the Wang family of the past?If Meng Tian made the same choice as Wang Jian, would the emperor let him go?

The answer to both questions is naturally no.

After Meng Tian paid homage to the emperor, Fusu ordered someone to give him a seat.

Meng Tian naturally shook his head and refused to accept it.

"If the late emperor was still alive, he would definitely give the captain a seat. If the captain hadn't suppressed the Xiongnu in all directions these years, the late emperor would not be able to handle state affairs with peace of mind."

After hearing this, Meng Tian sat down.

"Actually, if the captain doesn't come in person today, I will summon the captain in the future."

Before Meng Tian said why he came to see the emperor, the second generation took the initiative to talk about it.

"I want 30 troops to be deployed in the hinterland of Guanzhong. And this hinterland is near Hangu Pass."

When Meng Tian heard this, his scalp was naturally numb.

"Is there something to be done after the Six Kingdoms?"

"They have always been taking action. They have rebelled, assassinated, spread rumors, and come up with all kinds of tricks. Their desire to restore the country has never stopped."

"I will follow His Majesty's wishes and personally lead the 30 imperial elites back."

Meng Tian had no reason not to agree to this matter.

The Second King looked at Meng Tian, ​​the old general, with the word "loyalty" written in his eyes.

"In the past, when the late emperor was still alive, he once summoned me for questioning. He told me a story. Are you willing to listen, Captain?"

Meng Tian said hurriedly:

"What is your Majesty talking about? Your Majesty has something to say, and I will listen with all my ears."

"In the past, when the late King Zhaoxiang of Qin was alive, there was a famous general named Bai Qi. Bai Qi was killed, and the late emperor felt sorry for him. In view of this matter, the late emperor never killed any of his ministers."

Meng Tian's heart tightened when he heard the word Bai Qi.

If someone is really afraid of being a general, it must be because he knows why Bai Qi died.

"Why was Bai Qi executed by the late King Zhaoxiang? I think Captain Meng might have a different view from the late Emperor on this matter. The late Emperor thought that this was the fault of the late King Zhaoxiang. I don't know what the Captain thought. .”

As soon as the second son finished speaking, a waiter came in to deliver wine.

This kind of fruit wine tastes delicious but is not intoxicating at all.

But Meng Tian needed to be drunk in such an inexplicable state.

It would be nice if people could be a little more confused, why should they be so clear about each other's schemes?

Meng Tian was silent for a long time, and he still said:

"The reason why the late emperor thought that this was the fault of the late King Zhaoxiang was because the late emperor had a broad mind and could tolerate the actions of his ministers. As long as he is beneficial to the country, your majesty will give full play to those who are loyal to your majesty. We will spare no effort to promote and reuse them.”

"But when Bai Qi was killed, I thought he deserved his death. Bai Qi ordered the killing of 40 Zhao troops. Committing such a serious crime violated the rules of war between the two countries. Even if the late King Zhaoxiang was willing to read Let Bai Qi go because of his merits, but the Six Nations will not let Bai Qi go either."

"In the Battle of Changping, Zhao's 40 troops were killed. This is an unprecedented event that shocked the world. If Bai Qi survives, how will the resentment of the people in the world be appeased?"

After hearing this, the smile on Fusu's face naturally disappeared.

"Bai Qi is a great hero to our Qin State. How can we kill him just because he killed 40 Zhao people? If it hadn't been for the Battle of Changping that year, when Bai Qi killed 40 Zhao soldiers, the late emperor would have been attacking during his lifetime. Zhao State, with the strength of Zhao State, will definitely be able to resist for a longer period of time, and in this way, there will be no world like I have now."

"That's why I also think that this matter is all the fault of the late King Zhaoxiang."

After Meng Tian heard this, he still said:
"Your Majesty can have the same thoughts as the late emperor. It can be seen that your majesty is also a person who will reflect on himself based on the behavior of the former king. However, the minister is the same as Bai Qi. They are all ministers. If the king thinks that the minister is wrong, then the minister is wrong. That's why The minister thought that Bai Qi's killing was a matter of course."

This scripture and this meaning are all determined by humans.

Fusu added:

"That's why, if the army wants me to die, I have no choice but to die."

Meng Tian had never felt like this before. There was nothing on his neck, but he felt a sense of urgency with a sharp sword on his neck, as if he was about to fall to the ground in the next moment.

In just a few words, Fusu made clear the relationship between the two.

"What your Majesty said is true. I have learned a lesson today."

"But I will never forget the teachings of the late emperor. Don't think too much about it, Lieutenant Meng. I will not become the late king of Zhaoxiang. I dare not say anything about what I have done, and let my ministers bear the trouble for me. And Captain You will not become Bai Qi, working hard and achieving great results, but in the end you will not be able to die well."
