Chapter 10: The First Ray
"Seriously." Listening to the minister's words, Qin Shi Huang's eyes lit up, attacking the Xiongnu has always been Qin Shi Huang's heart disease, and now when he heard the minister's words, he immediately sat up straight and asked.
"Your Majesty." Seeing Qin Shi Huang's expression, Meng Tian secretly exclaimed in his heart, he was suffered, and then immediately interrupted what the minister was about to say next and said: "Old Li is already old, I'm afraid that he already has more than enough heart and not enough strength. ”
"General Meng's words are wrong, it is a holy grace to serve His Majesty, how can you postpone it, don't you take our Great Qin in your eyes?" Seeing that Meng Tian was delayed, Li Si immediately said to Qin Shi Huang.
Qin Shi Huang was bent on attacking the Xiongnu, since there is now a skilled craftsman who is good at organs, how can Qin Shi Huang let go, Qin Shi Huang said to Meng Tian: "Meng Aiqing, since he is such a talent, he must be owned by my Great Qin, tomorrow morning, I want to see him." ”
After listening to Qin Shi Huang's words, Meng Tian knew that Li Lao couldn't postpone it, and Meng Tian respectfully saluted Qin Shi Huang and said, "The ministers obey the order." ”
"Good, very good." Qin Shi Huang laughed with satisfaction.
When the dynasty was dispersed, Li Si walked to Meng Tian's side and said with a low smile: "Congratulations to General Meng for finding another skilled craftsman for Your Majesty, it seems that General Meng's weight in Your Majesty's heart is going to increase again, and the future is really immeasurable." ”
"Li Si, we are officials in the same dynasty and serve Your Majesty, but you are for your own selfish interests, excluding dissidents, and brutalizing Zhongliang, aren't you afraid of getting retribution one day?" Meng Tian knew that Li Si was deliberate, and usually, Li Si would compete with him.
"How can General Meng say this, this prime minister is dedicated to serving His Majesty, how can he eliminate dissidents and harm the loyal and good people." Li Si listened to Meng Tian's words, and instead of being angry, he still said with a smile on his face.
"People are doing it, the sky is watching, and one day you will pay for what you have committed." Meng Tian didn't bother to talk to this kind of treacherous villain, so he turned around and left.
Li Si looked at the back of Meng Tian leaving, the smile on his face gradually faded, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, and then he also turned to leave.
Loei.
"What? Your Majesty wants to see your father? How so? Li Jiang listened to Meng Tian's words, and immediately stood up and asked anxiously.
"This matter is because I thought about it carelessly, and I accidentally let Your Majesty know about Elder Li." Meng Tian said apologetically.
"It seems that Your Majesty has taken a fancy to Li Lao's craftsmanship." Zhao Gao sat on the side, dressed in white, and said slowly.
Li Lao, who was sitting on the throne, stroked his beard with his hand, and then said: "The old man once swore that the craftsmanship of one hand is only for the benefit of the people, and he will never be a weapon for the world to fight for. ”
"Can you postpone it, just say that my father is seriously ill and can't see His Majesty, so as not to collide with the dragon's body." Li Jiang looked at Meng Tian and asked a little anxiously.
"Your Majesty has made up your mind to summon Elder Li, even if he is seriously ill, according to my understanding of Your Majesty, Your Majesty will definitely carry Elder Li to see him." Meng Tian said helplessly.
"What then?" Li Jiang asked anxiously. She only has one relative to her father, and it is because the princes and ministers of Zhao State are aggressive, so her father will take her to Xianyang City to hide, but unexpectedly she did get out of the tiger prison but entered the wolf's den.
"Jiang'er, don't panic, Your Majesty's summoning is not necessarily a bad thing, if something happens, I will definitely swear to protect it." Meng Tian looked at Li Jiang, who was anxious, and said comfortingly.
"Thank you, Brother Meng." Hearing Meng Tian's words, Li Jiang's heart was a little calmer.
Zhao Gao, who was sitting on the side and didn't speak, suddenly said, "I have a plan." ”
"Tell me about it." Meng Tian heard that Zhao Gao had a plan, so he asked.
"When Li Lao met His Majesty, he said that he had an eye disease, and he was no longer able to make ingenious tricks." Zhao Gao said slowly.
"No, Your Majesty will not believe it." Meng Tian listened to Zhao Gao's words and immediately denied it.
"No, no, no." Zhao Gao continued: "When the time comes, Elder Li will think that His Majesty will mention that he will accept apprentices and tell him what he has learned all his life to teach the closed disciples, so that His Majesty's attention will no longer be only on Elder Li alone. ”
"How can it be done?" As soon as Li Lao heard Zhao Gao's suggestion, he immediately retorted: "Isn't this just passing on the matter to others, and the old man will never agree." ”
"Elder Li, don't worry, listen to me." Zhao Gao saw Li Lao's rebuttal, and immediately said soothingly: "Next, it's up to us Lao Meng." ”
"How?" Meng Tian asked curiously.
"When Li Lao proposes to His Majesty to accept apprentices, Lao Meng, you will ask Your Majesty to order Li Lao's apprentices to be included in the military camp, anyway, when attacking the Huns, His Majesty will definitely send Lao Meng to you, so Your Majesty will definitely agree, when people come to Lao Meng's military camp, are you afraid that something will happen?" Zhao Gao said slowly.
After listening to Zhao Gao's words, Meng Tian pondered for a while, and then said to Li Lao: "Li Lao, I think Zhao Gao's plan is feasible. ”
Seeing that Meng Tian also agreed to Zhao Gao's plan, Li Lao also nodded and agreed.
Seeing that the problem was solved, Li Jiang looked at Zhao Gao gratefully, and Zhao Gao found Li Jiang's grateful gaze with a smile on his face.
Following.
In the early dynasty, Qin Shi Huang walked slowly, revealing a majesty on his body, Qin Shi Huang walked to the dragon chair and sat down, and the eunuch shouted loudly: "Kneel." ”
The ministers knelt down slowly, and Li Lao also knelt slowly on the side, kneeling down with the ministers.
"Mountain call."
"Long live my emperor."
"Mountain call."
"Hooray."
"Again the mountain."
"Hooray."
"Zhong Aiqing is flat." Qin Shi Huang said majestically.
At the beginning of the early dynasty, after the ministers reported all the things they had played to Qin Shi Huang, they stood quietly aside, observing the people on the main hall, and everyone was calculating in their hearts what would happen next.
Qin Shi Huang seemed to be in a good mood, sitting on the dragon chair, his eyes swept over the ministers, and then stopped at Li Lao's body, Qin Shi Huang said slowly: "Is this Mr. Li Lao?" ”
Seeing that he was named by Qin Shi Huang, Li Lao could only leave his position respectfully, walked to the center of the main hall and knelt down and said: "Grass people Li Fan to meet Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live." ”
"Okay." Qin Shi Huang happily said to Li Lao: "Flat, give a seat." ”
Hearing Qin Shi Huang's words, several eunuchs immediately brought a cushion and placed it at the front.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Elder Li thanked His Majesty loudly, and then respectfully, slowly walked over and sat down step by step.
When Qin Shi Huang saw Li Lao sitting down, he asked: "It is said that your skill is ingenious, I don't know if Li Fan is willing to serve my Great Qin and help my Great Qin take down the Xiongnu in one fell swoop." ”
Li Lao didn't expect Qin Shi Huang to start asking himself so soon, looking at Qin Shi Huang with a smile on his face, Li Lao knew that this smile was not true, as long as he dared to postpone it, waiting for himself to be definitely a big punishment, Li Lao decided to say to Qin Shi Huang according to the countermeasures discussed yesterday, thinking about it, Li Lao made a salute to Qin Shi Huang, and then said: "Your Majesty, the grass people are old and suffer from eye diseases, don't look at this big responsibility, I hope Your Majesty is Shengming." ”
Li Si on the side heard Elder Li's words, so he said, "Listen to Elder Li, what you mean, is that you don't want to serve my Great Qin." ”
"Your Majesty." When Li Lao heard Li Si's words, he immediately felt his hostility, and immediately stood up and said to Qin Shi Huang: "It is an honor for the grass people to be able to serve Your Majesty and the Great Qin. ”
"Elder Li, what you said is not right, you suffer from eye disease, why can't you serve Daqin, in the end, Elder Li still refuses to serve Daqin." Li Si continued to say to Li Lao.
Meng Tian on the side stood up and said to Qin Shi Huang: "Your Majesty, Elder Li is still old, and he is not as ordinary as he said to the Prime Minister, and he is unwilling to serve Great Qin, please let Your Majesty know it." ”
"It seems that our General Meng and Li Lao have a deep relationship, I wonder if General Meng can leave this capable man for His Majesty? Or is it that because Li Lao is a member of the Zhao State, he is unwilling to serve Daqin. Li Si saw that Meng Tian finally couldn't help but speak, so he turned his head and pointed at Meng Tian.
"Prime Minister, why are you targeting an old man everywhere? Is your heart so narrow, that you exclude others for your own selfish desires? Meng Tian saw Li Si being aggressive, and immediately retorted loudly.
After listening to Meng Tian's words, Li Si immediately saluted Qin Shi Huang and said: "Your Majesty Shengming, the minister is dedicated to His Majesty, and the Great Qin is dedicated to the Great Qin, heaven and earth can be learned, how can General Meng slander the minister so much, please call the shots." ”
Qin Shi Huang watched his two capable ministers face each other in the court, one article and one martial arts, both of which were indispensable to him, Qin Shi Huang said to Li Si and Meng Tian: "The two Aiqing don't have to quarrel anymore, I believe in the loyalty of the two Aiqing to me and Great Qin." ”
"Your Majesty." Li Si listened to Qin Shi Huang's words, his eyes drifted over Meng Tian's body, and then said respectfully.
"Li Fan, are you really unwilling to be used by Great Qin?" The arrow turned to Li Lao again, and the smile on Qin Shi Huang's face was gone.
"Your Majesty, the grass people are more than enough but not enough." Li Lao respectfully said to Qin Shi Huang: "But the grass people are already recruiting disciples from the closed gate, and the grass people will teach the disciples what they have learned all their lives
When the time comes, the disciples of the grass people will serve His Majesty, what is Your Majesty's opinion? ”
Qin Shi Huang looked at Li Fan, and then looked at Meng Tian, seeing that Meng Tian seemed to have a deep relationship with Li Lao, Qin Shi Huang thought for a while and said: "Since this is the case, do you have a candidate?" ”
"There are already a few candidates, and the grass people will definitely teach their disciples what they have learned all their lives, so that the disciples can serve Great Qin and His Majesty." Seeing that Qin Shi Huang agreed, Li Lao immediately said.
"Your Majesty." Seeing Qin Shi Huang's attitude, Meng Tian immediately said: "The minister asks for an order to include Li Lao's disciples in the army, so that the minister can supervise and observe." ”
"Okay." Qin Shi Huang was very happy to hear Meng Tian's words, and immediately agreed: "Meng Aiqing's matter will be handed over to you, I hope Aiqing will not live up to my expectations." ”
"Obey." Meng Tian said respectfully.
Li Si on the side didn't speak, and he didn't expect this matter to pull Meng Tian off the horse, but just to add a blockage to Meng Tian's heart and, since everything was resolved, Li Si consciously complimented Qin Shi Huang: "Your Majesty is wise." ”
