Chapter Eighty-Nine: True and False King Qin
"Xiaomin Wu Fei, see His Majesty the Emperor, long live Your Majesty, long live long live"!
It wasn't until he felt Meng Tian's pull that Wu Fei woke up like a dream, and hurriedly bent down and knelt down to bow down. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Haha, General Meng, please hurry up, this time you led an army of 300,000 to fight against the Huns, and won a complete victory, which greatly promoted the national prestige of our Qin State, and also made the border land no longer harassed by the barbarians. For such a great achievement, I will definitely be rewarded"!
Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the throne of the high emperor, was obviously very pleased with Meng Tian's achievements in this army, and between his words, he was happy.
"Thanks to the blessing of His Majesty the Emperor, this time the army went out, thanks to the great help of the God-given Lord, to disperse the wild wolves, and the last general can resist the millions of Huns and return victorious."
In the face of Qin Shi Huang's strong appreciation, Meng Tian appeared neither humble nor arrogant, and responded freely.
"General Meng is brave and good at fighting, and on the battlefield, no one can match him. This time he returned from a complete victory, and he is really the fierce general of my Great Qin Empire"!
At this time, an official in a blue robe standing at the head of the hundred officials also spoke.
"Li Xiangguo has a good reputation, and the last general is just doing his duty. Li Xiangguo assisted His Majesty in handling many affairs of the empire, which is hard work."
In the face of this person's praise, Meng Tian bowed and replied.
"General Meng, who is he, he looks quite domineering", Wu Fei asked Meng Tian secretly on the side.
"He is Li Si, the most famous Confucian disciple of a hundred schools, and now he is the prime minister of the Great Qin Empire, assisting His Majesty the Emperor and his son Fusu to deal with the affairs of the empire, which can be said to be under the two and above the ten thousand."
After hearing Wu Fei's inquiry, Meng Tian replied in a small voice.
"What, he's Lees"?
Hearing this, Wu Fei was taken aback.
Li Si, that is a big figure in the history of the Qin State. Famous politician, writer and calligrapher.
Li Si was a county official in his early years, and later studied the art of the emperor from Confucian Xunzi, and entered the Qin Dynasty. Later, he persuaded the King of Qin to destroy the princes and become the emperor, and was appointed as a long history.
The king of Qin adopted his strategy, sent strategists to lobby the six countries of Kwantung with gold and jade, separated the monarchs and ministers of various countries, and appointed him as a guest secretary. In the tenth year of the reign of King Qin, due to the Korean spy Zheng Guo's entry into Qin, King Qin ordered the expulsion of the guest secretaries of the six countries. Li Sishang's "Book of Expulsion of Guests" was blocked, which was adopted by the King of Qin, and soon became a court lieutenant, which played a greater role in the cause of the Qin King's political destruction of the Six Kingdoms.
After Qin unified the world, he agreed with Wang Juan and Feng Zai to respect Qin Wang Zheng as emperor and formulate relevant etiquette systems. He was appointed prime minister.
He suggested demolishing the county walls and destroying civilian weapons; oppose the sub-feudal system and adhere to the county system; He also advocated the burning of hundreds of languages such as "poems" and "books" in private collections, and the prohibition of private learning, so as to strengthen the centralized rule.
He also participated in the formulation of laws to unify the system of rails, writing, and weights and measures. The implementation of his political ideas has had a far-reaching impact on China and the world, and has laid the basic pattern of China's political system for more than 2,000 years.
It can be said that King Yingzheng of Qin was able to dominate the world, and Li Si played a great role in it.
"Your Majesty, this time the army can go so smoothly thanks to the help of the God-given Lord!"
"A godsend? can make the king of wolves surrender willingly, what a young hero, as the high priest said, can help me the rule of the Great Qin Empire for thousands of years, please hurry up."
During the speech, the King of Qin-Yingzheng, who was wearing a golden dragon robe and an imperial crown on his head, stood up from the imperial throne, and then under the guidance of a little eunuch, he walked down the high dragon cloud platform, came to the place where Meng Tian and Wu Fei knelt and bowed, and helped the two of them up.
"Master, be careful, this person has a sin mark from the Future Space-Time Authority. It is very likely that he is not King Yingzheng of Qin himself, but the guy from the future time and space who is impersonating."
When Ying Zheng came to the two of them, Xiao Hei's raised voice suddenly sounded in Wu Fei's brain.
"Nima? It's so hateful, I actually pretended to be Qin Shi Huang, let the labor and management kneel for you, and wait until the banquet is over, see how I clean you up"! While Wu Fei was secretly scolding, a little vigilance rose in his heart.
"Everyone, General Meng went out this time and defeated the million-strong army of the Huns with 300,000 troops, which is gratifying. What's more, the heavenly giver prophesied by the high priest has appeared, which can bless me with Great Qin for thousands of generations and be immortal.
Today, I have specially organized this banquet and invite all of you to attend. First, to welcome the arrival of the Heavenly Send-Given, everyone toasted together to celebrate such a happy event."
Ying Zheng, the pretending King of Qin, had a smile on his face, picked up the wine bottle in his hand, and toasted to everyone.
Seeing this, the other civil and military officials also picked up the wine bottles on the shore table and toasted to Wu Fei and Meng Tian.
Although Wu Fei can't drink, on such an occasion, you can't say anything if you don't drink. So he could only pretend to take the wine bottle handed by the attendant and drink it all.
But fortunately, the wine-making process of the Qin Dynasty was not so advanced, and the alcohol and strength of the wine were not very large. Wu Fei drank a glass of wine, except for the residual taste of alcohol in his mouth, there was no other strange feeling.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone sat in their places step by step, and the fake Qin Shi Huang also returned to the imperial throne. At this time, from the gate of the palace, a group of dancing girls and singers dressed in silk and satin came out. Dance with the drums and bells ringing in unison.
The hundred officials in the hall enjoyed a series of delicacies on the table, watched the wonderful songs and dances, and enjoyed themselves. They didn't know at all that King Qin, who was sitting on the throne of the emperor, was a fake who had been transferred by someone and was confused.
"General Meng, this division has won a great victory, and this official toasts you"!
Just as Meng Tian and Wu Fei were having a good time eating and chatting happily, from the seat next to them, a pale guy with a somewhat strange costume walked over.
"The CRRC Mansion has made the Lord overrated, and the last will respect you"! Faced with this person's accosting, Meng Tian raised the wine bottle in his hand and drank it all.
"CRRC government order? Could this man be ...... Qin Dynasty eunuch - Zhao Gao"?
After hearing Meng Tian's name for this person, Wu Fei was a little surprised. In the historical documents of the Qin Dynasty that he is familiar with, the only person who held the official position of the commander of the CRRC in the Qin Dynasty was the eunuch - Zhao Gao.
"This little brother, at such a young age, turned out to be a god-sent person of my Great Qin Empire, and he will definitely do something great in the future. In the lower Zhao Gao, a cup of toast to the little brother".
After Zhao Gao finished toasting Meng Tian, he poured a full glass again and toasted Wu Fei.
"Thank you for your love, thank you very much"!
Although he didn't have a good impression of Zhao Gao, a guy who referred to a deer as a horse, he didn't have a good impression in his heart. However, since people have already taken the lead in toasting, if Wu Fei does not return the salute, it will seem that he is particularly rude.
Especially in this dynasty, which pays special attention to etiquette, etiquette is particularly important.
Historical records: Zhao Gao, surnamed Ying, Zhao, was the prime minister of the second emperor of the Qin Dynasty of China, and a famous eunuch.
Zhao Gaoben was a distant relative of the Qin clan, entered the Qin Palace as a eunuch, served as the commander of the CRRC government, and concurrently carried out the Fu Xi order, "more than 20 years of management".
After the death of Qin Shi Huang, Zhao Gao launched a coup d'état in the dunes, and he conspired with Prime Minister Li Si to forge an edict to force Qin Shi Huang's eldest son Fusu to commit suicide, and set up Hu Hai, the youngest son of the first emperor, as the emperor, for Qin II, and appointed himself as Lang Zhongling.
During his tenure of office, he monopolized power, formed cliques for personal gain, and made the conscription more onerous and the administration more harsh.
In 208 BC, he designed to kill Li Si, and then became the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty. In the third year, he forced Qin II to commit suicide and set up Ziying (the son of Fusu, the eldest son of Qin Shi Huang) as the king of Qin. Soon he was killed by Ziying's design and punished the three clans.
Although he tried his best to plot and reached the peak of his power at the time of Qin II, he could not escape the fate of being killed in the end. For the fate of such a person, it is really sad and lamentable.
After Zhao Gao finished toasting Wu Fei and Meng Tian, he left and returned to his own table. Next, except for a few high-ranking generals who came to toast, almost no one came. Wu Fei Zele was happy, sitting alone at the desk enjoying the food, while letting Xiao Hei monitor the fake Qin King's every move in real time.
