"Ah Hao, are you sure that the Qin State really dispatched 20 troops and moved to the south, including the Yin Yang family?" Jing Ke asked cautiously.

"I'm sure I'm not mistaken, Juzi. I spent a lot of effort to investigate last night. It seems that even the gang of killers organized by the network have followed a lot. I was almost discovered." The man in the video looked very happy. .

Jing Ke and Chi Songzi looked at each other, both felt that Qin Guo's actions were unusual.

"I know Ah Hao, you continue to hide in Xianyang, remember, don't do anything in a short time, don't expose it, remember to contact us if there is any situation"

"Know the giant"

After the video call ended, the colorful picture went black, and Chi Songzi put down the stone in his hand.

Jing Ke pinched his chin, frowned, and said, "20 troops, this is going to war, but the south of Qin State is full of high mountains and mountains. If we talk about countries, there are only Ba and Shu in the Bashu Basin, but I remember this The two countries seem to have been successfully invaded by the Qin State, is it a rebellion?"

"It doesn't have to be a rebellion, and even if it's a rebellion, the Bashu area doesn't need 20 troops, and [-] is more than enough. However, the Yinyang family's participation in it makes me have a guess. Their goal this time may be Mount Shu. " Chisongzi noticed the key point sensitively.

"Shu Mountain"

Jing Ke's face was a little ugly. Strictly speaking, the blood on his body also belonged to Shushan, and Shushan was his hometown he had never been to.

If Qin Guo wanted to take action against Shushan, he would definitely not be happy about such a thing.

"The relationship between the Yinyang family and our Daomo family is extremely bad, and Shushan has a very good relationship with us, and there is a hibiscus tree in Shushan. With the nature of the Yinyang family, it is very likely that they will want to get it. It is not impossible with the help of Qin, but 20 The army is still too much." Chi Songzi still couldn't figure out why Qin would dispatch 20 troops, no matter what, it was a bit of a fuss.

Jing Ke said: "No matter what Qin's real purpose is, it should be certain that Mount Shu is in danger. We can't just watch it like this."

"But here is too far away from Mount Shu, Qin should have already set off, relying on us alone"

Chi Songzi suddenly thought of something while talking, and looked at Jing Ke.

Jing Ke nodded and said with a smile, "That's right, we alone can't make it in time, but Shenlu is different, and in terms of the relationship with Shushan, Shenlu is probably closer than us..."

After Jing Ke finished speaking, he walked out and came to the Xuanguang Spiritual Tree. Ling Ye was teaching the Xuanguang Spiritual Tree Nine Heavens Slash, but it was still a hundred and eight thousand miles away from learning.

"Shenlu, we just got the news that the Qin State has sent troops to Bashu, and Shushan may be in danger."

Ling Ye, who was teaching the Xuanguang Spiritual Tree, paused immediately, and turned his head to look at Jing Ke, the antlers on his head faintly overflowing with vigor.

Qin sent troops to Shushan

The terrain in the Bashu area is steep and the transportation is extremely inconvenient, making it extremely difficult to march in a large area.

But there are exceptions.

There is a small road in the Bashu Basin. Although it is winding and winding, it can directly connect to the pass. Meng Tian led an army of 20 to the land of Bashu little by little.

The two big clans here have long been defeated by the Qin army, but because this place is far away from the central government, it is not easy to govern, so Qin adopted the method of setting up Bajun and Shuhou.

"General Meng Tian, ​​here are some suitable mountain roads to Mount Shu collected by our Yin Yang family. There is also a rough map of Mount Shu. You can take a look first."

Dong Jun of the Yin Yang family handed over several pieces of cloth that had been prepared to Meng Tian.

Meng Tian took the map, scanned it roughly, and found that the map was very detailed, especially the map of Shushan, which was almost equivalent to telling him how to invade Shushan.

"Master Dongjun is really troublesome, but your Yinyang family has this kind of map, it seems that you have already planned to invade Shushan." Meng Tian said pointedly, looking at Dongjun firmly, not letting anyone go a detail.

Before leaving, he received an extra reminder from Ying Zheng, telling him to be careful of the Yin Yang family.

Dongjun smiled indifferently: "General Meng Tian was joking, our Yin-Yang family has taken refuge in Daqin, so naturally we have to do our best. This is just a small contribution from our Yin-Yang family."

Dong Jun wasn't worried about what Meng Tian would see, because this trip was the last plan of their Yin Yang family, even if Meng Tian doubted anything, it didn't matter, how could he give up Ying Zheng's order?

Meng Tian took a deep look at Dongjun who did not miss any flaws, then turned and left silently.

In any case, the top priority is to take Shushan and capture the deer, and we have to wait until later.

At night, in Xianyang Palace.

A ghostly figure flickered across the palace, fast but silently, and finally came to the emperor's throne, which symbolized supreme power, in the main hall, and quietly took out a sacred scroll from a hidden corner below.

After getting the item, the figure left quickly, and finally came to a remote room in the palace, and quietly lit a candle.

Under the light of the candlelight, this person's face was revealed. It was Ying Zheng's personal eunuch, Zhao Gao.

As Yingzheng's close servant, Zhao Gaosu always pays attention to one word, cautious.

He must know everything, so that he can control the overall situation.

The reason why he acted tonight was purely because last night he discovered that Ying Zheng hadn't slept very late. He wrote down this imperial scroll by himself in the hall with a light on. During the day, he didn't miss any details. Hid this imperial scroll under the emperor's throne in the main hall.

"Your Majesty, what exactly is this thing you wrote behind my back, let the slave take a good look at it"

Zhao Gao slowly opened the scroll, but what caught his eye surprised him greatly.

This is actually Ying Zheng's will.

It shows that after his death, the throne will be passed on to Fusu.

Zhao Gao firmly grasped the patent shaft with his palm, and the cold zhenqi entangled in his palm, as if the patent shaft would be destroyed in the next second.

After a while, Zhao Gao withdrew his true energy, with a ferocious sneer on his face, and said, "Your Majesty, you really surprised this servant. I thought that until you died, you would have that ridiculous dream of the Emperor of Longevity in your mind. , I didn't expect that I was not completely old and blind, and I did this kind of thing behind my slave's back, you are really "

Zhao Gao's tone was full of extremely suppressed anger.

Fusu is not close to him.

Once the emperor and the courtiers, if Fusu sat on the throne, it is uncertain whether Zhao Gao can still have the current status.

Taking a step back, even Zhao Gao can still maintain his current position.

But who likes to be a slave to others for the rest of their lives.

Over the years, the ministers in the court have all started to take positions, and Zhao Gao was naturally not idle. Under his many years of control, the son Hu Hai has already been controlled by him, and he has also made a lot of efforts to allow Hu Hai to compete with Fusu.

Zhao Gao is confident that after Yingzheng's death, he will use the power of the net to get rid of Fusu, and then assist Hu Hai to ascend to the throne, and then with his control over Hu Hai, the entire Great Qin will not be the apparent master , but it can also be said to be his.

After being a slave for so many years, groveling, constantly acting, and constantly tolerating, no one knows how difficult the hardships are, and as long as I think that one day I can stand up and become the master, and become the greatest master in the entire Central Plains, Zhao Gao was so excited that he couldn't control himself.

This is also a huge ambition hidden in his heart, he wants to control this empire.

But now, Ying Zheng wants to destroy his wish.

"¨`Your Majesty, the slave has served you for so many years, you should be content, anyway, your body won't last long, so just satisfy the slave's wish."

Zhao Gao extinguished the candle and returned to his residence with the imperial scroll. Using Yingzheng's handwriting that he had imitated for many years, he wrote a new imperial scroll, but the successor changed his name to Hu Hai.

After Zhao Gao checked it several times, he put the scroll back to its original position.

"It's not safe yet. If Ying Zheng suddenly takes out the scroll to check on a whim, then my plan will be exposed, and I still have to do one more step."

Zhao Gao looked towards the depths of the inner palace of Xianyang Palace, that direction was the place where Ying Zheng fell asleep.

Now that we have taken this step in desperation, we might as well take another step.

"Meng Tian led an army to Shushan to catch the god deer. If he brought back something of longevity, it would be bad for Yingzheng to prolong his life. We must act first to be strong."

With a flash of Zhao Gao's figure, he came to the imperial dining room.

After serving Yingzheng for many years, Zhao Gao had already fully controlled Yingzheng's habits. He knew exactly what Yingzheng would eat and what he would not eat in the morning.

Take out a small packet of medicine.

This is not poison, but a colorless, odorless, sleep-promoting drug that makes people sleepy.

Zhao Gao slowly put it into several dishes

Chapter 196 The Suffering of the Common People

"bang"

A white shadow broke through the ice and flew out from the snow mountain.

The corners of the head exude a sharp air, tearing the air, galloping through the air, and the speed continues to increase.

Just as Lingye moved towards Shushan

When the Qin army also arrived in Bashu area,

Some disciples of the Yin Yang family used the power in their hands to spread a piece of news all over the world in a very short period of time, and some interested people learned about it.

In a certain county of the Qin State, a man who had just finished a month of unpaid hard labor returned home exhausted.

As soon as he entered the house, the wife inside came out of the side room with the five-year-old child in his arms, holding a bowl of soybean porridge in his hand that Ling Ye would never want to eat if he saw it.

The man smiled, took the soybean porridge and drank it.

The taste is not very good, but the man feels very sweet in his heart.

The wife looked at her husband, smiled, and sat aside with her child in her arms. Thinking of something, her face became melancholy.

"Amu, the food at home is about to run out"

The man stopped eating the porridge, raised his head, and asked, "How long can we last?"

The wife said: "Except for the part that has to be handed in, the rest of the children and I can save some food, and we can last for ten days, but if you add it, I'm afraid"

"Don't worry, I'll go to the county magistrate tomorrow to sign up for road repairs. I heard that road repairs cost a lot of money." The man made a quick decision. No matter what, he couldn't starve his wife and children.

The wife shook her head when she heard the words, and said: "Amu, I thought about it, why don't we sell the fields, isn't it allowed to sell fields now, so at least we can save some money?"

"It's sold, but what will you and your child eat in this way?" The man looked at his wife in surprise.

The wife touched her child, with determination in her eyes, and said: 180 "I can take the child to transport logistics, just like your road construction. I heard that the transportation logistics can also manage food and drink every day. The farther the place The more wages are paid, anyway, many women in our county also go, and there are still quotas every year. Even if I don’t go this year, I’m afraid I’ll have to go next year, and the yield of our field is very average, relying on me alone, The efficiency is not good either, the field tax is too big after all.”

The man was silent, not knowing how to refute, but just walked over and hugged his wife, and their child was sitting between them.

"Father, mother, I'm hungry"

"Hey, hold on, mother will cook porridge for you tomorrow morning"

"Father, mother, didn't you say that the war is over and the world is unified? Why do you still live so hard every day? Do I want to be like this when I grow up?" The child blinked his big innocent eyes, simply asked.

Hearing this, both of them were silent, but the hand holding their child became tighter.

Life is very bitter

In fact, this kind of situation didn’t just happen to their family. The common people in the entire Qin Dynasty were basically like this. Both men and women, after reaching a certain age, had to go to corvée service. During that period of time, wages were paid at other times, and the amount was not small, but the problem was that they had to bear heavier taxes.

In addition to the land tax, the household tax, the replacement tax, the head tax, and other miscellaneous taxes accounted for almost two-thirds of the income of ordinary households.

The heavy burden has made many people overwhelmed.

Coupled with the various harsh punishments of the Qin Dynasty, the man still remembers that two months ago, a man was driven crazy by the pressure and wanted to escape, but he was arrested and sentenced to death. The miserable way of death terrifies him even now when he recalls it. , and not only him, but also all his family members, and all five members of the family died.

Some people even complained verbally and were arrested, charged with crimes, and forced to serve corvée, which is the most difficult and dangerous kind.

累吗

The man really wanted to say that he was too tired.

The war is gone, but the hardships of life make people despair, and it feels worse than before.

The man looked at his child with determination in his eyes.

He must think of a way, even if his life is over, he must not let his children grow up to be like them.

During the day, the man walked out of the house quickly, and was about to go to the county magistrate to sign up for road repairs. Unexpectedly, before he got there, pedestrians on the street surrounded him somewhere, and several people were talking loudly.

"What happened?" The man subconsciously walked over in doubt.

I saw a person yelling loudly: "Folks, there has just been a news from Xianyang that Qin Shihuang's life is dying, and he discovered the legendary god deer, and sent a large army to hunt the god deer in order to seek longevity. It is a heaven and earth spirit beast, its killing is ominous, and it will bring disasters, Qin Shihuang is going against the sky, and we will all be implicated."

"Shenlu!" Amu's pupils shrank.

Many years ago, the plague ravaged the Seven Kingdoms. At that time, all his family members fell ill. By chance, they heard that the divine deer appeared in Shenlu Lake, which could relieve the disaster for the world. At that time, Amu's family all went.

He still dare not forget the white deer like a divine beast. Under the release of endless light, the illness that made him miserable was eliminated. At that time, all the people including him were grateful to Dade.

And now Qin Shihuang actually wants to hunt the god deer!

There were also some people present who had the same experience as Amu. When they heard the news, they felt repulsive and dissatisfied in their hearts.

The man continued to shout: "Folks, now that the world is unified, we should have a peaceful and good life, but what kind of life are we living now, heavy taxes and corvee, what do we get for our daily hard work, most All the benefits have been obtained by those damn princes and nobles, but how humble and difficult our life is.”

"Do you want to live like this forever?"

"Do you want your descendants to be like you?"

Everyone listened to the speech in a daze, and their hearts were not at peace.

Ask yourself if they will.

Only the devil would!

If life is decent, no one would think about doing something dangerous, but now life is terrible and hopeless, and you don't know when you will die.

Rather than being crushed to death by a life with no end in sight, it is better to fight.
