Meng Tian is missing.

With the help of Meng Tian, General Lin and General Wu retreated with the soldiers of Great Qin, this time they suffered heavy losses, and half of the soldiers who retreated were killed and wounded because of the fierce attack of the Xiongnu.

General Lin and General Wu led everyone to meet Shang Shangzao, who was transporting catapults.

Watching the retreat of the army, Shang Shangzao immediately sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly greeted him and asked, "General Lin, General Wu, what happened?" ”

"We've been tricked, hurry up." General Lin was afraid that the Huns behind him would catch up, so he didn't care so much, so he spoke.

"Tricked? What about General Meng? Shang Shangzao found that there was no Meng Tiantian in the retreating army, and his face became even more anxious.

"This is General Meng's order, return to the barracks, protect the gentlemen and defend the border." General Lin took out the token that Meng Tian gave him, and said directly, now is not the time to stay and explain, and General Meng's order must be carried out immediately.

Seeing the token in General Lin's hand, Shang Shangzao also knew the seriousness of the matter, so he stopped asking and immediately retreated with General Lin.

General Lin, General Wu and Shang Zao pushed the cart to the border with Gao Mu and others overnight, and General Lin quickly controlled the border guard position because he held Meng Tian's token.

General Lin deployed the border, increased guards, and strictly guarded them, which made the people on the border panic.

Gao Mu and the others saw Shang Shangzao retreating with him overnight, they knew that something big had happened, and they found that Meng Tian was not there, although they were very worried in their hearts, but looking at General Lin, General Wu and Shang Shangzao's serious expression, and they were busy commanding, although they were flustered, they were still relatively orderly.

Takagi and the others didn't dare to disturb him, nor did they dare to walk around, for fear of adding additional trouble to them.

It took General Lin and General Wu a day to dispose of the border properly, and only then did they breathe a sigh of relief, and Shang Shangzao had already found a place for them to be treated by a military doctor.

After everything was properly handled, General Lin and General Wu told Shang Shangzao and Takagi and others in detail what had happened.

Three days passed, Meng Tian never came back, there was no way, and finally everyone discussed it and decided to report the matter to His Majesty, General Lin sent several teams of men to look for it, but there was no gain.

And they also sent people to secretly go to the Xiongnu to look for them in disguise, but they still found nothing, Meng Tian was like the world evaporated, and there was no one in life, and no corpse in death.

However, General Lin didn't know that something bigger had happened in Xianyang City at this time.

There was already in the process of raising grain and grass for transportation, and the grain and grass were robbed, which made Qin Shi Huang furious and strictly investigated the matter.

Fusu Gongzi took over the investigation of this matter, but after a long time of investigation, nothing was found, the grain and grass were robbed, how could a new batch of grain and grass be prepared so quickly?

The border is in an emergency, and there is a shortage of grain and grass, which is a taboo for soldiers at all, but no matter how anxious Qin Shi Huang is, he still can't raise so much grain and grass.

Fusu Gongzi sent someone to tell Zhao Gao about this, and wanted Zhao Gao to come up with an idea, Fusu Gongzi knew that Zhao Gao was Meng Tian's best friend, and he would definitely find a way to help Meng Tian.

At this moment, Fusu Gongzi and Zhao Gao and others didn't know that something was going on at the border, let alone that someone in Xianyang City was brewing a bigger conspiracy.

Zhao Gao thought of a person to solve the matter of grain and grass, and Zhao Gao came to the Mu Mansion to ask for a meeting.

Yes, the person Zhao Gao is looking for is Mu Qi's father, the No. 1 grain merchant in Xianyang City, almost every county and city in Daqin has his family's rice shops, and now he is the only one who can raise grain and grass to fund Meng Tian in a short time, not to mention, Mu Qi is also at the border, he will definitely not let his son go.

Sure enough, Mu Qingshan listened to Zhao Gao's words, and stood up excitedly in an instant, even Mu Qi's mother, who was sitting on the side, was so frightened that her legs were weak, and she asked excitedly: "Zhao Gongzi, how is Qi'er?" Is there something wrong? ”

"Auntie, don't worry." Zhao Gao looked at the nervous old woman and hurriedly comforted: "As long as the grain and grass arrive in time, it won't be a big deal." ”

"It's just that this grain and grass was robbed, and it is impossible for Your Majesty to raise so much grain and grass at once, and I am afraid that Uncle Mu will need help this time." Zhao Gao looked at Mu Qingshan with a serious face and said.

Mu Qingshan had always been worried about Mu Qi in his heart, and when he heard Zhao Gao say this, how could things like grain, grass, and money be comparable to his son, even if he scattered all his family wealth, Mu Qingshan would go to save his son.

Mu Qingshan said to Zhao Gao without the slightest hesitation: "In terms of grain and grass, you try to raise as much as possible, we will definitely help, there are also shops of my Mu family on the border, if there is a problem with food, Qi'er will definitely find shops to support for a period of time, and I will try my best to raise grain and grass in all places." ”

"I will first replace the Great Qin soldiers and thank Uncle Mu for saving his life." Zhao Gao saw that Mu Qingshan agreed without the slightest hesitation, and admired Mu Qingshan even more, knowing that it was very likely that he would be useless if he helped him with all his might.

"I don't need their thanks, I just need my Chi'er to come back safely." Mu Qingshan is not ungrateful to others, he only hopes that his son can return safely.

"We'll definitely bring Muki back safe and sound." Zhao Gao assured Mu Qingshan with a serious face.

With Mu Qingshan's full help, Zhao Gao and the others soon gathered a batch of grain and grass, although they could not support the end of the war, they were able to support it for a while.

Moreover, Mu Qingshan has already sent a pigeon to his various shops, asking them to transport all the stored grain to the border, so there will be intermittent grain and grass to arrive, as long as the prince Fusu gathers the grain and grass, the matter of grain and grass can be solved.

This time, the grain and grass were transported by Zhao Gao personally, and Gongzi Fusu sent capable soldiers to escort Zhao Gao to avoid the situation of the last time the grain and grass were robbed.

After Zhao Gao let his mother inform, he came to Li Mansion to see Li Jiang, Li Jiang also knew about the grain and grass, and did not ask anything, but just told Zhao Gao to be careful all the way with a worried face, and Zhao Gao also told Li Jiang that there was no necessary thing before he came back, and he must not leave Li Fu, and Li Jiang agreed.

Gongzi Fusu sent Zhao Gao out of Xianyang City, and then saluted respectfully, and said with a serious face: "This time, please Brother Zhao, the battlefield is charging into battle, and the soldiers who bravely killed the enemy are still waiting for this batch of grain and grass." ”

"Fusu Gongzi rest assured, Zhao Gao will definitely deliver this batch of grain and grass safely." Zhao Gao also bowed respectfully, with a solemn face.

Zhao Gao asked Gongzi Fusu to take care of his mother and the Li Mansion, and slowly left Xianyang City with grain and grass and set off towards the border.

It's just that Zhao Gao didn't know what was happening at the border, and he didn't know that Meng Tian had fallen off a cliff and disappeared, and he didn't know that there was a huge disaster

Descended on the Zhao Mansion.

When Qin Shi Huang received the report, Zhao Gao had already set off with grain for three days, because Zhao Gao only transported grain, so their progress was relatively fast, and they were already a hundred miles away from Xianyang City.

Qin Shi Huang looked at the urgent report that Meng Tian was missing, Qin Shi Huang was furious, and immediately convened the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to discuss the matter.

The newspaper also wrote that the catapult had been leaked, which made Qin Shi Huang even more angry, what does it mean that the catapult was originally a secret weapon for victory, but it had been leaked before the war began? Go without saying.

Because Gongzi Fusu was raising grain and grass, the leakage of the catapult was investigated by Li Si, but they didn't know that Li Si did not compete with Gongzi Fusu to raise grain and grass, which was simply Li Si's plan.

Everything went in the direction of Li Si's plan, and the huge conspiracy shrouded step by step, as if it was like a huge monster with its bloody mouth open, slowly biting towards its prey.

Xianyang City was in turmoil, and almost every household was closed, because Li Si was searching every household with great fanfare, the reason was to find spies.

Li Si made a big fuss in Xianyang City for several days, making people panic and becoming a household name, and a few days later, Li Si surrounded the Zhao Mansion with his troops.

Gongzi Fusu soon received the news, because before leaving, Zhao Gao entrusted Gongzi Fusu to take care of the Zhao Mansion, so it was absolutely impossible for Gongzi Fusu to watch the Zhao Mansion have an accident.

"See Fusu Gongzi." Li Si saw Gongzi Fusu coming, so he stepped forward and saluted with a smile on his face and said.

"I don't know what happened to the Prime Minister's siege of the Zhao Mansion?" Gongzi Fusu looked at Li Si with a smile on his face, although he knew the hypocrisy in his heart, he didn't tear his face, just asked lightly.

"Someone came to report it today, and there are people in this Zhao Mansion who are fornicating." Li Si still said with a smile on his face, not like he was talking about fornicating with foreign enemies, but like talking about a small and insignificant matter.

"I think the prime minister must have made a mistake, Zhao Gao prepared grain and grass for Daqin to send to the border, how could he have fornicated with foreign enemies?" Childe Fusu listened to Li Si's words, and a sense of uneasiness began to rise in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

"I also believe in Zhao Gao's character, but since someone reported it, it still needs to be searched, otherwise it will cause dissatisfaction among others, does Fusu Gongzi think it?" Li Si threw this question in front of Gongzi Fusu.

I said that Gongzi is known to the world for being honest and frank, and when Li Si said this, Fusu Gongzi couldn't stop it, so Fusu Gongzi frowned, thought about it and said, "I'll go in with you." ”

"With the participation of Fusu Gongzi, this matter can't be better." Li Si refused without thinking about what Gongzi Fusu said, and Gongzi Fusu's move made Li Si even more happy in his heart.

Gongzi Fusu and Li Si entered the Zhao Mansion with soldiers, and the old lady at this time had already brought people to wait in the courtyard, and saw Gongzi Fusu and Prime Minister Li Si also led everyone to kneel and salute.

"Old lady, please get up quickly!" Gongzi Fusu helped Zhao Gao's mother and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, there is nothing wrong, the prime minister received a report from someone and led the troops to search, and there is nothing serious." ”

The old lady listened to Gongzi Fusu's words, looked in the direction of Li Si, looked at Li Si with a smile on his face, suddenly remembered the words of her son Zhao Gao, and then looked at the soldiers led by Li Si, the old lady immediately felt that something big would happen.
