Chapter 48 Discussion of countermeasures

"General, if there is nothing else to do, I will step back first and boil medicine for this son." The military doctor is also a clever person, and when he saw that the atmosphere was not quite right, he didn't stay longer, and saluted and said to Meng Tian.

"Let's go down!" Meng Tian agreed.

The military doctor listened to Meng Tian's words, and retreated respectfully.

After the military doctor left, the entire camp was silent for a while, and no one spoke.

Meng Tian looked at everyone in an abnormal atmosphere, and finally said: "Zhao Gao, Jiang Er, you just came back and go to rest first, if there is anything, we will discuss it after we have rested." ”

"It's fine." Zhao Gao also nodded in agreement.

"This is not as good as Xianyang City, Jiang Er, you and Miss Meng live in a tent so that you can take care of each other." Meng Tian said to Li Jiang.

"Okay, Brother Meng." Li Jiang nodded in agreement.

"You live in my tent, I just have something to discuss with you." Meng Tian saw that Li Jiang had no opinions, so he looked at Zhao Gao again and said.

"No problem." Zhao Gao agreed without thinking about it.

"Jiang'er, I'll take you to rest first." Meng Jiangnu said to Li Jiang.

"Okay." Li Jiang agreed, and then took Xiaobao's hand and left with Meng Jiangnu.

Seeing this, Mu Qi also saluted Meng Tian, and then left together.

Meng Tian saw that everyone had left, and then said to Zhao Gao: "How about it, can you go by yourself?" ”

"As long as you don't dislike me for walking slowly, there's no problem at all." Zhao Gao listened to Meng Tian's words, and said with a look of arrogance on his face.

"Since you can joke, it should be fine." Meng Tian saw that Zhao Gao didn't seem to be abnormal, so he said, "Let's go, I'll take you to the camp tent to rest." ”

"Okay." Zhao Gao stood up and followed Meng Tian out of the tent, and the soldiers you met on the road saluted respectfully when they saw Meng Tian.

Zhao Gao followed Meng Tian to Meng Tian's tent, unceremoniously made it to the couch, and then looked at Meng Tian with a smile.

"What are you doing watching me all the time?" Meng Tian saw that Zhao Gao had been staring at him with a smile, and said with a frown.

"Didn't you say you had something to discuss with me?" Zhao Gao said.

"You're just coming back, let's get some rest." Meng Tian wanted to discuss something with Zhao Gao, but because Zhao Gao was injured and had just been rescued, Meng Tian wanted him to rest more.

"Didn't the military doctor say it? It's nothing serious, just take care of it. Zhao Gao didn't seem to care so much about his leg injury, although the military doctor said that it might hurt in the wind and rain in the future, but Zhao Gao felt that since it was already this kind of result, there was no need to think about it anymore.

"At the end of the day, I'm afraid I'm the one who really affects you." Meng Tian saw that Zhao Gao didn't care, but Meng Tian remembered what the military doctor said in his heart, and Meng Tian said a little apologetically.

"I know." After listening to Meng Tian's words, Zhao Gao didn't have any comfort, and said frankly: "The group of people who chased and killed us must have wanted to use us to lure you out of the Great Wall, and then you have the responsibility that you can't shirk when the Great Wall collapses." ”

Meng Tian listened to Zhao Gao's words and didn't speak, Meng Tian knew that with Zhao Gao's cleverness, he must have guessed.

Zhao Gao looked at Meng Tian, who was standing aside and didn't speak, and sighed helplessly and said, "Old Meng, but so what? Do you think I'm going to blame you? ”

"I know you won't blame me." Meng Tian said slowly, Meng Tian knew that Zhao Gao would not blame himself, but because he knew, he felt even more guilty, Meng Tian would rather Zhao Gao stand up now and point at his nose and scold himself, which would also make him feel better.

"Lao Meng, don't think about it too much, the first thing now is to find out why the Great Wall collapsed." Zhao Gao looked at Meng Tian's expression, and knew what Meng Tian was thinking in his heart, for this long-time friend, Zhao Gao was already very familiar with it.

"After you're rested, I'll take you to the collapsed place to take a look." Meng Tian listened to Zhao Gao's words and said.

"Is there a suspicion?" Zhao Gao asked.

"There is no clue for the time being, but there is only one person in the court who thinks that I will be dismissed." Meng Tian looked at Zhao Gao and said seriously.

Zhao Gao looked at Meng Tian's eyes, and knew who that person was, the person who wanted Meng Tian to disappear the most in this world was not the enemy but the prime minister Li Si, who was an official in the same dynasty.

"If it's really him, I'm afraid that even if you didn't come to the Great Wall to look for me, he would do other things to lure me away from the Great Wall." Meng Tian said.

"It's just that I don't quite understand how he could have calculated that the Great Wall would collapse during this time." Zhao Gao himself looked like a deputy hanger, but he frowned and said: "This section of the Great Wall was personally supervised by Lao Meng, and the subordinates you brought are also personally taking care of various important joints, so why did this Great Wall collapse?" That's the point, the reason why it was damaged by thunder, I don't believe it. ”

"I don't believe it, I personally supervised the construction, and it will definitely not collapse because of a thunderbolt, there must be some other reason." Meng Tian naturally didn't believe that the Great Wall he had built would collapse because of a thunderbolt.

"Unless he's been preparing for it for a long time." Zhao Gao looked at Meng Tian and said, "Do you remember? At that time, you were suddenly assigned by His Majesty to supervise the Great Wall. ”

"Yes." Meng Tian listened to Zhao Gao's words, nodded and replied: "At that time, because of the slow progress of the construction of the Great Wall, the general who served as the overseer was demoted to His Majesty because of dereliction of duty and sent to garrison outside the pass. ”

"Remember who that general is?" Zhao Gao asked.

"It's Ling Shaoqing." Meng Tian said, suddenly Meng Tian seemed to think of something again, looked at Zhao Gao and said: "Ling Shaoqing is Li Si's protΓ©gΓ©, although Li Si is a civil official, but he has a lot of generals. ”

"That makes sense." Zhao Gao listened to Meng Tian's words, and instantly understood, and then said with a sneer: "Supervising the construction of the Great Wall is a good job, if it wasn't premeditated, how could Li Si not protect his own people?" What is the ineffective supervision to be demoted and dispatched outside the customs? I'm afraid this is a play directed and acted by Li Si himself, just to lure you into the game. ”

"If that's the case, we can find out the real cause of the collapse of the Great Wall." Meng Tian listened to Zhao Gao's words, and his heart also understood, and then said: "Otherwise, I am afraid it will be difficult for me to get out this time." ”

Zhao Gao naturally understood what Meng Tian said, when the Great Wall collapsed, Meng Tian was still looking for the missing himself and Li Jiang in the mountains, not in the Great Wall at all, and now everything is rumored, the Great Wall collapsed because Meng Tian cut corners and neglected his duties, so the Great Wall built was knocked down by a thunderbolt, and some people are saying that this is the heavens blaming Meng Tian for killing countless people, and the punishment of being too angry and so on.

No matter what kind of rumors it is, it is very unfavorable to Meng Tian, Zhao Gao thought, so he said to Meng Tian: "When will Your Majesty's will come?" ”

"Calculate the time, it's these two days." Meng Tian replied truthfully.

"If things really go as we think, I'm afraid this holy decree is not a good thing, and some people should have already acted in the court." Zhao Gao also knew the seriousness of the matter, and he was afraid that this time it would not be so easy to get out.

"So there's one more thing I'd like to ask you to help me with." Meng Tian listened to Zhao Gao's words, his face suddenly became extremely solemn, Meng Tian looked at Zhao Gao and said: "If this time, I really can't get out of the whole body, you go back to Vice General Yang and tell him to let him sort out the Meng family army, don't act rashly, if I can't come back, let him disband the Meng family army." ”

Zhao Gao frowned and said as if he was saying his last words as if he was saying his last words: "Old Meng, what are you talking nonsense?" What can't come back? With your current military merits, how could Your Majesty punish you with a capital crime? He still expects you to lay down the country for him and protect the country, I won't say it for you, if you have anything to say, you can say it to him yourself. ”

"Hey, I just said if it is." Meng Tian looked at Zhao Gao and felt that he seemed to be a little angry.

"There are no ifs." Zhao Gao said: "You'll be fine, isn't there still me?" ”

"Then there will be Brother Lao Zhao." Meng Tian seemed to feel that what he said before was really not optimistic, and when he saw that Zhao Gao was a little angry, he changed his previous seriousness, and said with a smile to Zhao Gao.

Zhao Gao saw Meng Tian's sudden change, and he was a little angry because of his words, but now he couldn't help laughing, Zhao Gao pointed at Meng Tian and said: "Old Meng, you better change back to your original appearance, I really can't stand this kind of pretentiousness." ”

Seeing that Zhao Gao was no longer angry, Meng Tian stood up straight and said, "Not angry?" ”

"Angry? What am I angry about? Zhao Gao said with a look of hanging.

"There will be some unnecessary dangers, and if you don't get involved, don't get involved." Meng Tian said to Zhao Gao, Meng Tian knew that if something really happened to him, then Zhao Gao would definitely rescue him regardless of it.

"That's natural." Zhao Gao listened to Meng Tian's words and knew that he didn't want to involve too much danger for him, so he said with a smile: "You must be hiding far away when you encounter danger, how can you get involved with the court that is inextricably linked?" ”

Meng Tian obviously didn't believe Zhao Gao's words when he heard them, but he didn't say anything more, because Meng Tian knew that no matter what he said, he wouldn't be able to stop Zhao Gao at that time.

"Oh, yes." Zhao Gao suddenly thought of something, and then said to Meng Tian: "There is one thing you can check out, it may be related to the collapse of the Great Wall this time." ”

"What's the matter?" Meng Tian asked.

"Fan Xiliang's death." Zhao Gao said, Zhao Gao looked at Meng Tian with a look of incomprehension and continued: "Didn't you say that Fan Xiliang suddenly contracted a disease a year ago and was buried alive? Check out who were buried alive? This could be a clue. ”

"Are you saying that Fan Xiliang didn't get sick at all, but was killed because of other things?" Meng Tian listened to Zhao Gao's words and fell into deep thought.

"Jiang Er and I fell into the cliff and were rescued by a man named Ah Niu, coincidentally this man named Ah Niu, who was arrested a few years ago to repair the Great Wall, also disappeared suddenly a year ago, I think there should be some kind of connection between him and Fan Xiliang, but now that he is dead, I can't confirm it for the time being." Zhao Gao said that although Ah Niu refused to say anything about himself, Zhao Gao felt that he must have something to hide.

"Okay, I'll send someone to investigate." Meng Tian listened to Zhao Gao's words and said.
