Da Qin: Rebuked the dissatisfied ministers, held the sword towards the emperor at the beginning

Chapter 14 Emperor's power!

The front of the golden root car.

A simple high platform was quickly erected.

Since then.

Under the escort of the black-armored guards, Zhao Gao was directly tied to the high platform for punishment!

It's not enough to teach the young master!

Sentenced to over a hundred canings!
"Snapped!"

The executioner dipped the cane whip in water, and then swung it out in response, and there was a thunderbolt in the air instantly!

The rattan whip is specially made, especially after being exposed to water, the rattan whip itself will become heavier...

therefore.

Ordinary civil servants who have no strength to restrain a chicken can't even hold ten whips.

Even military generals with strong physical fitness can only withstand fifty lashes at most.

Once it exceeds fifty lashes, no matter how brave the general is, he will be whipped to death.

But this time Zhao Gao will be punished with more than a hundred lashes...

If there is no accident.

Zhao Gao must die.

however.

Zhao Gao had his own thoughts on the first emperor's edict, that is, if His Majesty wanted someone's life, even if he only punished him with a whip, the other party's life would definitely be lost.

on the contrary!

If His Majesty the Emperor does not want anyone to die, even if he is punished with two hundred lashes, his life can still be saved.

Then the problem is coming.

Is Ying Zheng really going to kill Zhao Gao now because of the guilt of ineffectively teaching Hu Hai?
Zhao Gao himself thinks that there is a high probability that it will not happen...

His Majesty the Emperor may seem ruthless, but in fact he is lenient inside.

Furthermore.

Qin's laws tended to be strict and meticulous, with many severe punishments. Zhao Gao just taught Hu Hai some allusions to the punishment names of the Shang Dynasty. Even if there were some mistakes, Zhao Gao did teach Hu Hai many laws and regulations, and he also taught Hu Hai a lot of laws and regulations. Indirectly made Hu Hai interested in the law.

That is: Zhao Gao's teaching method is wrong, but overall, the result is good.

The First Emperor must have been clear about this.

Then why did Zhao Gao still have to be punished heavily?
some of……

"Snapped!"

The whipping started suddenly!
With just one whip, a bloodstain oozes from Zhao Gao's back!
Next up!

Two whips!

Three whips!

Four whips...

soon.

Hu Hai, who was still elated because he had received a reward from his father, received the news that his master had been whipped.

Of course.

Hu Hai began to kneel beside the golden root car, begging for mercy for a while.

Even Hu Hai was willing to copy Shang Jun's book a hundred times, just to save Zhao Gao's life.

But Yingzheng still didn't take back his order.

no way.

Hu Hai had no choice but to rush up to the high platform, and threw himself in front of Zhao Gao. After he blocked two whips with his own body...

Ying Zhengcai finally handed down his orders, and the rest of Zhao Gao's caning was temporarily recorded and will be carried out at another day.

Gold root car.

Ying Zheng looked at his eighteen sons, his eyes pondering...

Meng Tian's guard was by his side, and he didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, and he had already arranged for the seal cutting and transcription of Jian Meteorite's book.

It has a long history of being good at writing, and it specializes in transcribing and engraving...

At this time.

"Mengqing, do you know why I want to punish Zhao Gao?"

Ying Zheng asked with great interest.

Meng Tian immediately cupped his hands when he heard the words: "Your Majesty has deep meaning in his actions, I dare not speculate on my own."

"Hahaha, you are looking more and more like Meng Yi now."

Ying Zheng raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

He likes Meng Tian now, and he knows how to be a minister.

In the past, Meng Tian was more or less negligent in the sense of boundary between monarch and minister.

After all, as a general, it's normal to be a little rough.

Until that time when Meng Tian and Meng Yi invited Zhao Gao to kill, Ying Zheng gave the latter an amnesty for Long En. After this incident, Meng Tian and Ying Zheng began to pay attention to sense of proportion when getting along.

"Actually, the reason why I severely punished Zhao Gao is very simple."

Ying Zheng said slowly: "Hu Hai's behavior just now was a bit clever, and he spoke of capital punishment. Zhao Gao is indeed guilty of ineffective teaching!"

"And if I punish him with more than a hundred lashes, the key depends on whether Hu Hai will try his best to save Zhao Gao."

"Now that Hu Hai has not hesitated to rush to the high platform and block the whip with his body, it shows that Zhao Gao did not teach Hu Hai too crookedly, otherwise..."

……

Ying Zheng did not continue with the remaining words.

But the meaning is very clear.

Since Hu Hai was taught by Zhao Gao.

Then Hu Hai's temperament also determines Zhao Gao's own life and death!

Hu Hai rescued Zhao Gao with his body, and Zhao Gao was spared from death.

Hu Hai watched indifferently...

Then Zhao Gao deserved to be beaten to death.

In summary.

This is Ying Zheng's imperial power, and it is also his test and teaching for Hu Hai.

As his son Yingzheng.

Not to mention that you must follow the kingly way of benevolence and righteousness...too pedantic, for example, in Ying Zheng's view, Fusu is moving in a pedantic direction.

Hu Hai's problem is that he has a bit of hostility!
As a king, you can be less benevolent, but you can't be really tyrannical!

Confucianism's moderation, Ying Zheng has read a lot recently, and happened to have some insights, so he applied it to his son.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Meng Tian saluted sincerely.

Ying Zhengming took a second look at the general of the Meng family, and he said: "Meng Qing, what do you think of my two sons? Say it boldly!"

"Wei Chen..."

Meng Tian opened his mouth when he heard the words, which made him speak boldly.

Well known.

His younger brother Meng Yi has a particularly good relationship with his eldest son Fusu.

Meng Tian is not actually very close to Fusu at the moment, because he usually can take as little as possible when it comes to more sensitive interpersonal relationships.

Meng Tian is not very good at being in the temple, he is exquisite in all aspects, like a fish in water.

This is the biggest difference between him and his younger brother Meng Yi.

"Your Majesty, I... I don't know."

Meng Tian's solution to the things he is not sure about is to keep silent.

Too much talk leads to mistakes!

As long as he doesn't speak, His Majesty the Emperor can't find fault with him.

"It's not that you don't know, it's that you don't know how to tell me."

Ying Zheng took a breath, and then he remembered Yin Lie's remonstrance meteorite book, saying that he had a lot of things in his heart, but he didn't do a good job in cultivating and inheriting the crown prince of the empire, so that the position of the crown prince was uncertain. also!
"Hmph! Now that I'm thinking about the remonstrance letter of that lunatic Yin Lie... I'm going to be so angry!"

"He dared to die and dared to remonstrate, saying that my eldest son, Fusu, was suspected of superficial benevolence and righteousness, and turned history back!"

"His judgment on Hu Hai is even worse, the number one prodigal son of all time!"

"I am in control of the world. No matter how much Hu Hai ruins his family, he will never be able to defeat Da Qin's nine states and thousands of miles of rivers and mountains!!"

Ying Zheng waved his hand and said domineeringly.

Meng Tian: "..."
