Chapter 174 The North Clouds Road Meets Lao Suo

The mountain spreads, the palace is hidden in the mountains, the clouds and mountains are misty from afar, such as the cloud palace immortal, the weather is majestic up close, the palace is layered on top of each other, and the staggered fall is caused.
Since the attack on the Qin Emperor, the ministers have not persuaded him to leave here and go to a safer place. For example, Shangdang County, where the city walls are thick, and there are garrisons stationed, the terrain is open, and the transportation is convenient.
It's just that Emperor Qin finally refused. Emperor Qin was here, completing the largest purge since Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms.
Zhao Di's blood flowed like a river, tens of thousands of heads fell to the ground, and the mountain wind blowing slightly at this time was full of blood.
The ministers are afraid, these days, be cautious, lest they be implicated in themselves.
It's just that today is a little different after all.
The crown prince of the empire will resist the Taihang Palace this morning. The Son of Heaven of the Empire and the future heir of the Empire are about to hold a meeting, what will be the result? No one knew.
At this moment, the palace is quiet, and only one or two birds chirp occasionally.
However, everyone understands that an even greater storm may be on the horizon for the Empire.
Its momentum is far more brutal than the purge of Zhao Di, and its scope is so wide that perhaps the whole world will be in turmoil because of this.
The stone of confusion said, the dead Qin.
What does this character represent? It's clear to all.
This is already an open and unspeakable secret at the top of the empire, and with the passage of time, even among the laborers of the Qiantou, this sentence is faintly circulated.
The scope is so wide and the impact is so large that even Emperor Qin cannot ignore it.
Moreover, Prince Qin also destroyed the Yin and Yang family. You must know that the Yin and Yang family is an ordinary immortal medicine for the Qin Emperor, shouldering an important mission. After the incident, although Emperor Qin ordered the remnants of the Yin and Yang family to be cleared from all parts of the country, in the eyes of Li Sizhao and other Jinchen, this was somewhat like wiping Yingziyi's buttocks.
After all, the crown prince of the empire insisted on going his own way, destroying the Yin and Yang family, and he didn't even communicate with Emperor Qin beforehand, what a contempt for the holy will! However, if Emperor Qin punished the crown prince for this, it would undoubtedly make outsiders see a joke. In Zhao Gao's opinion, Emperor Qin's handling of the Yin and Yang family afterwards was undoubtedly very clever.
However, how are you going to get through this level?
As the carriage slowly approached, Zhao Gao, who was ordered to greet the crown prince, had an official smile on his face.
However, in those gloomy eyes, there was boundless coldness.
Although Zhao Gao can't be said to be the person who hates Ying Ziyi the most in this world, there is absolutely no problem in adding one after this sentence.
In the battle of Nanyang in the past year, all the elites of Zhao Jia's net were lost, and he himself suffered because of this, and stayed in the prison in the Tingwei Mansion for three months.
The gloomy environment, the food that is hard to swallow, the soul-grabbing ghost crying wolf howl......
Little by little, it seeped into Zhao Gao's heart, brewing the seeds of hatred.
Three months later, although Zhao Gao was pardoned and regained his position as the Zhongshu Commander, Zhao Gao, who had lost his net, was not much different from a toothless tiger.
"Yo! It's the CRRC government order! Long time no see! Ying Ziyi smiled brightly, and when she saw Zhao Gao, she said hello. If others don't understand, they really think that the relationship between these two people is very good.
"Slaves and maids meet His Royal Highness the Prince." Zhao Gao stepped forward and saluted Yingziyi. The gloomy face was full of smiles at the moment, and every move was respectful and abnormal.
"His Majesty the Emperor has retired hundreds of officials today, and he is specially waiting for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the palace."
"Really? Then lead the way! ”
The more Zhao Gao is like this, the more wary Ying Ziyi's heart becomes.
The scarlet gate was opened, and silence remained in the empty hall.
Emperor Qin sat on the throne, and above the imperial case, there were piles of bamboo slips one by one. Emperor Qin held a bamboo slip in his hand and flipped through it one by one.
Ying Ziyi walked into the main hall, waiting for the vermilion door to be closed.
Ying Ziyi trotted forward for a distance, knelt down with the momentum, slid over a long distance, and made a screeching sound when his knees rubbed against the floor, and finally stopped ten steps away from Emperor Qin, threw himself to the ground, and bowed: "The son is guilty, please forgive my father." ”
In any case, Ying Ziyi's attitude of admitting guilt is still good.
It's just that Brother Zheng didn't pay attention to it, and he was still scrolling with bamboo slips in his hand, ignoring the meaning of Ying Ziyi.
Ying Ziyi raised her head and glanced at Brother Zheng. Ying Ziyi is not at all sure in his heart, what is Brother Zheng's mind in his heart?
"What are your sins?"
After a long wait, Brother Zheng finally spoke. It's just that casual appearance that makes Ying Ziyi a little uneasy.
"The son did not have the holy decree of his father, so he exterminated the Yin and Yang family."
"Judging from the evidence you submitted afterwards, the Yin and Yang family is indeed harboring evil intentions. Far from being without fault, you have merit. ”
Ying Ziyi is not sure in her heart, whether this political brother is talking right or wrong!
"The celestial phenomena warn, and the glow guards the heart, this is the punishment of heaven." Ying Ziyi said tentatively again.
Brother Sui Zhizheng had a long laugh, and the laughter spread throughout the hall, and Ying Ziyi was a little hairy when he heard it.
Brother Zheng finished laughing and said, "Don't tell me, you'll believe this kind of thing." ”
Hey! Ying Ziyi sighed lightly in her heart.
Even stupid people should find that Brother Zheng is not angry, but also happy.
This Ying Ziyi is a little confused, what does Brother Zheng think in his heart?
"Get up! Don't you think it's a bit redundant to act in front of me? Brother Zheng's voice came, and Ying Ziyi stood up.
Ying Ziyi did everything he could, but he didn't expect Brother Zheng to be like this. In Ying Ziyi's speculation, Brother Zheng may be dissatisfied, may be angry, or may speak coldly about this kind of situation, the only thing Ying Ziyi didn't expect was that Brother Zheng was actually very happy.
It's not right!
"I want you something, this time Chen Rong rebelled. You could have taken this opportunity to eradicate the forces of Fusu, but in the end, you didn't do it, for what? Brother Zheng asked.
I'll go! Brother Zheng, everyone is a cheating father, is it really good for you to cheat your son like this?
"For the princes of the other six countries, for the forces of the rivers and lakes, the eldest brother is a banner. With the call of this banner, they will not be in trouble, which is not a good thing for the Empire! Ying Ziyi said honestly.
Brother Zheng said: "I am very pleased that you can think so. So, this is also the reason why you let go of Xiong Xin, the son of Chu State? ”
Ying Ziyi was shocked in her heart, the fact that she pretended to be a bear heart was a top secret! How did Brother Zheng know?
"Nope." In any case, it is better for Ying Ziyi to explain the problem honestly. At this time, there is no benefit in bullying the king!
"The forces of the Chu State need a leader, so that the forces that were originally watching my Great Qin in the shadows can surface."
"Although I dominate the world, the undercurrents of the four seas are surging, and the forces of various countries are even more intertwined in the local area. If there are another twenty years, I have the confidence that the foundation of my Great Qin will be as stable as Mount Tai. ”
Heroic and intense. This is the most intuitive feeling of Ying Ziyi.
It's just that he is down, but he is silent.
"Although I hate others saying a dead word, my body knows that God will definitely not give me another twenty years. When the sky is not right, there is nothing to do! ”
Emperor Zun sighed sadly. Even a generation of emperors who are in the ninth rank and reign over the world must abide by the rules set by the heavens.
Rites of passage!
"The change of the throne will inevitably cause turmoil in the imperial power, and the forces of the other countries will not sit by. For them, this may be their last chance. Therefore, I need a worthy heir. Can you do it? ”
A soft voice of inquiry came, and there was no ardent expectation or moral kidnapping, just like a master in a private school asking questions about his disciple's homework.
"The sons will ensure that the Qin tile will last forever." Ying Ziyi arched his hand, extremely firm.
"That's enough. Go down! Emperor Qin smiled and said.
"Son's resignation!"
Looking at the scorching sun outside the sky, Yingzi was standing on the stone platform in front of the door, his face was gloomy, but he didn't say anything more, and walked down silently.
Zhao Gao looked at Ying Ziyi's appearance, but he was secretly happy in his heart. Only when there was a rift between Emperor Qin and Prince Qin, he would not worry about finding an opportunity to realize his ambitions.
Two days later, Taihang left the palace and issued an edict from Emperor Qin.
The crown prince lost his morality and was deeply disappointed. Now depreciate and defend the clouds, defend Beihu, and watch the after-effects.
A simple line of words made the prince of a country relegated to the cold land on the border.
In the eyes of the ministers, although this decree is not a formal book, but an edict, it is similar to the abolition of the crown prince. The land in the clouds, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and Beihu is often plundered, and the prince of a country goes to that kind of place, isn't the emperor's meaning obvious?
All of a sudden, there were people in the world who cheered and cheered, and there were also those who lost their minds.
Half a month later, Ying Ziyi rode to the border in a carriage and under the escort of three thousand ghost prison riders.
Pass through Taiyuan.
Ying Ziyi did not enter the city, nor did she plan to stay here, but next to the ancient pavilion of the long road, she saw an old man with white hair.
It is the Great Qin military god, Wang Qian.
Wang Jian came here without any extra men, and only followed a boy behind him.
The wind blew the long pavilion, and there was only one jar of wine in it, and there was nothing left.
Ying Ziyi walked down from the carriage, saw Wang Qian, and said with a smile: "General Wang, I heard that you are in Taiyuan for a long time, and you have long forgotten about the court, and you only know how to make Sun happy." When I saw it today, I found that it was all a lie, and the old general was as majestic as it was back then! ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has praised it."
Wang Jian introduced Ying Ziyi into the pavilion, and the two knelt down. The boy brought a glass of wine for each of them, and when he had finished serving, he left the pavilion.
"This king left three thousand guards and walked here alone, thinking that his whereabouts were secret, but he didn't expect to be discovered by General Wang." Ying Ziyi smiled.
Wang Jian smiled, his smile was weird, but he didn't say anything more.
Why is Wang Jian here? That's because he received a secret report, and he deduced the whereabouts of Prince Qin from the clues.
But how did this information leak out?
Prince Qin acted meticulously, how could such a major secret be easily known by outsiders. There is only one explanation, and that is that Prince Qin did it on purpose.
In other words, Prince Qin deliberately lured him here.
"Well, don't talk about it." Ying Ziyi let out a long sigh and said: "Once this king loses power, the ministers will see the road. At the time of parting, none of the ministers came to say goodbye. The so-called lonely people are nothing more than that. It is still the old general Wang who remembers the love of the past and comes here to say goodbye to this king. ”
Ying Ziyi pretended to be posturing, but Wang Jian was drinking on the side and did not take a stubble. Those white eyes, I look like I'm just looking at you quietly pretending to be forced.
Ying Ziyi said secretly: Old fox.
Wang Jian naturally knew the edict issued by Emperor Qin, but don't forget that behind that edict, there are four words to defend Beihu.
Although this is not a formal document, it does have administrative effect.
That is to say, at the critical moment, even if there is no tiger talisman, with this edict, Ying Ziyi also has the right to control all the soldiers and horses inside and outside the Great Wall. Of course, with just a specious edict, I want to make that group of unruly generals who guard the border counties obey orders, which not everyone can do.
And Ying Ziyi is precisely one of the few people in the empire who has this ability.
In Wang Qian's view, Ying Ziyi is completely pretending to be a calf.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, don't tell lies in front of real people. The old man came this time just to get a promise from His Highness. In the eyes of His Royal Highness, the Wang family still has the ability to continue to serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”
"Soldiers." Ying Ziyi's attitude also became correct, and said: "Guanzhong is fertile for thousands of miles, and it is in control." Left Kunhan, right Longshu, south of Bashu, north of Hu Yuan, the risk of the four stoppers and the east of the princes, this emperor's capital. If there is something in the world, who should come first? ”
Wang Jian smiled and said lightly: "Shuzhong is dangerous, and with a confidant general, you can be safe." Only Taiyuan Shangdang Yanmen and other places are the flanks of Guanzhong, and the key to success or failure must not be lost. When you have the danger of Taihang, you should set up heavy troops to guard the key points of each province to prevent the princes from invading. In this way, the army will go east, and it will be safe. ”
Although the words of the two were vague, the meaning of the two had already been fully understood.
"Is the Wang family willing to guard this portal for my Great Qin?"
"Lian Po is old, and his heart is still there. Old Qin, how can he say that he has no clothes? Wang Jian said with indignation.
"Mighty words!" Ying Ziyi laughed.
The two of them raised their glasses and drank.
……
Farmhouse, Lieshan Hall.
It has been many days since the news of Prince Qin's northern demotion to the clouds came, and Tian Yan still can't believe it, that person left Xianyang and the power center of the empire like this. Emperor Qin continued to tour the east, and Gongzi Fusu was preparing to take over. As soon as the prince of Qin was gone, the position of the prince Fusu became more and more stable. All those who supported Gongzi Fusu settled down and waited for the moment when he would inherit the throne.
"Ah Yan, the Xiang family sent good news, Xiong Xin, the prince of Chu State, married the princess of Zhao State, and invited his father to go. Do you want to come with me and relax? Tian Meng looked at his daughter's sullen appearance in the past few days and said.
Tian Yan wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he still said, "Okay! (To be continued.) )
