(First update.) ）

Prime Minister Xue Ze's Shangshu does not have enough energy to shake Qincheng's influence, although the content of Shangshu is fresh, but if it is just some text descriptions, it is just appalling at best.

But it is obvious that Xue Ze's long-standing blow is not just an empty recital, but also a lot of supporting evidence that is presented in front of Liu Che along with Xue Ze's recital.

"Zuo General Qin Cheng, colluded with the Xiongnu, accepted a large amount of benefits from the Xiongnu, reached a secret agreement with the Xiongnu, and used the cultivation and war of a strong country as a guise, but in fact, he wanted to disrupt the Han national system, so that the Xiongnu could take advantage of the opportunity to march into the Han realm!"

This is what Xue Ze mentioned in Shangshu.

And those supporting evidence, there are letters indicating that Qin Cheng colluded with the Xiongnu.

Xue Ze also listed some suspicious incidents in Shangshu, the most important of which was that after Qin Cheng defeated the army of the military minister Shan Yu, he only led a few thousand hussar battalion soldiers to dare to set foot in the royal court of the Xiongnu Dadan. Then, in the case of confrontation with Yi Zhi in the royal court, he was still able to retreat with his whole body, and captured Yu Dan, the prince of the Xiongnu. He thinks that this matter is too strange to make sense or reason.

Liu Che put down the so-called letters in his hand, glanced at Xue Ze, who was standing in the hall, and said lukewarmly: "You said this is a letter between Qincheng and the Xiongnu?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, exactly." Xue Ze said, "The handwriting on this letter has been specially checked, and it is no different from General Zuo's handwriting." ”

"Did you catch the messenger?" Liu Che asked.

"The messenger is dead." Xue Zedao.

Liu Che threw those letters aside, revealing dissatisfaction in his cold voice, staring at Xue Ze and said: "Just based on some letters and a few seemingly unusual incidents, your dignified prime minister suspects that General Zuo is collaborating with the enemy, and is suspected of betraying the country to seek glory and seeking the country with the enemy." Don't you think this thing is too unreliable? ”

"Panic!" Xue Ze hurriedly bowed down and made a heartbroken statement, "The minister knows that General Zuo has made great achievements, and His Majesty will not be easily suspicious." But if all this is a conspiracy, if General Zuo's military exploits are all given by the Huns, Your Majesty can't help but think about the Han world! ”

"My general captured the Xiongnu prince Yu Dan, in fact, to help Yi Zhi to clear the obstacles to the throne, Yi Zhi Xian admired the kindness of General Zuo, so he used Cha Hadi as General Zuo to show merit to the Han Dynasty." Liu Che shook Xue Ze's superiority with a calm face, "The price of General Zuo's taking the Heshuo region is to use the farming and warfare system to destroy the world, so that the Huns can take advantage of the opportunity to reap the profits and recover their losses several times, and the frequent wars can give General Zuo a chance to make meritorious contributions." Prime Minister, don't you think your words are too appalling? ”

"Although the minister is courageous, he also fulfills the duty of the minister. Nowadays, there are only a handful of people in the court who dare to point fingers at General Zuo, and since the minister dares to risk being scolded by the people of the world to speak to His Majesty today, he has never thought about the thin bones of the minister. Xue Ze bowed his head and said in a loyal tone: "Your Majesty, please think about it, if Qin Cheng hadn't reached some kind of agreement with Yi Zhixian that day, how could he have retreated from the Xiongnu Dadan Yu Wang Court with just a few thousand people, and brought back the crown prince Yu Dan?" It doesn't make sense! ”

"Does it make sense that General Zuo can behead more than 60,000 people after colluding with Yi Zhixian?" Liu Che asked coldly, his sharp gaze staring at Xue Ze.

"Reluctant children can't trap wolves, this is the terrible thing about the Huns! Your Majesty, if Yi Zhixian can pay such a heavy price this time, he must have a great plan in the future! Xue Ze couldn't wait to beat his chest, "Besides, when General Zuo went out last time, he also brought back the princess of the Huns." The minister heard that this Xiongnu princess is known as a virtuous person, and she has lived in the Central Plains and is well versed in the art of war. And on that day, he actually took the initiative to surrender to General Zuo, which could not be said that Yi Zhixian deliberately sent this princess to be embarrassed by Qin Cheng! I hope Your Majesty will see it! ”

Liu Che's eyes became colder and colder, and suddenly, he asked from a different angle: "Then according to the Prime Minister's meaning, how should this matter be handled?" ”

"General Zuo will be temporarily imprisoned pending the truth being investigated!" Xue Ze said firmly.

"Huh!" Liu Che sneered, and suddenly asked: "It is the responsibility of the imperial historian to supervise the hundred officials, but the prime minister's transgression today makes me look sideways!" ”

"The minister is fortunate to be given by His Majesty as the prime minister, leading a hundred officials, naturally to share worries for His Majesty, although it is the duty of the imperial historian to supervise the hundred officials, but the minister can not ignore the officials below, and still poison the Han by people with bad intentions! It is the minister who risked his death today, and hopes that His Majesty will take the Han world as the mind and investigate this matter in detail. Xue Ze replied.

"Ill-intentioned, poisonous man?" Liu Che sneered and waved his hand at Xue Ze, "Prime Minister step aside!" ”

"Then General Zuo ......" Xue Ze was surprised by Liu Che's abrupt closing remarks.

"What should I do, do I have to report to the prime minister?" Liu Che suddenly screamed, and his face instantly turned hideous.

"Panic!" Xue Ze hurriedly bowed to Liu Che, and then confessed and retreated.

As soon as Xue Ze walked out of the hall gate, Liu Che couldn't help but pick up Xue Ze's Shangshu, fell out, and gritted his teeth with cold eyes and scolded: "This old thing! ”

......

After Xue Ze returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, he met with several waves of guests in a row, and it didn't stop until dusk.

"It is said that Qin Cheng and Yi Zhixian colluded with each other, will Your Majesty believe our statement?" Xue Ping stood in front of Xue Ze and asked Xue Zedao, who was sitting.

Xue Ze glanced up at his son, but he was not impatient because of Xue Ping's problem, on the contrary, when he saw that his son, who had been idle for more than 20 years, was finally willing to pay attention to the affairs of the court, he felt quite relieved in his heart.

"We don't need Your Majesty to believe our words at all." Xue Ze explained, "We just need Your Majesty to believe in our attitude." ”

"Our attitude?" Xue Ze looked puzzled, "What attitude?" ”

"Attitude against the farming system." Xue Ze said slowly, and seeing that Xue Ze was still puzzled, he added: "You must know that we are not the only ones who oppose the cultivation and warfare system, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, and countless new and old scholars, are mostly against the cultivation and warfare system. However, His Majesty insisted on going his own way, and he had to implement the system of cultivation and warfare. But the world is not what His Majesty can do whatever he wants, and he has to pay the price for violating the interests of the ministers and scholars in the world like this. At the very least, he wants to give an account to the nobles whose interests have been harmed. Otherwise, if the scholar clan is unstable, Your Majesty's farming and warfare system will not be able to be implemented normally. ”

Xue Ping nodded thoughtfully, "So this set of rhetoric of yours is actually an attitude to your majesty on behalf of the minister of the scholar clan whose interests have been harmed." ”

"Not bad." Xue Ze's eyes finally had a look of appreciation, "So whether our rhetoric is accurate or not, whether the evidence is sufficient, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is how much power we have standing behind us, and we have most of our attitudes." ”

"As long as the forces behind us are big enough and our attitude is resolute enough, Your Majesty cannot sit idly by!" Xue Ping cheered up, and his voice was much louder, "And to calm our anger and allow the cultivation and warfare system to be implemented smoothly, Your Majesty must meet our requirements and give us a sufficient explanation!" And now, this explanation is Qin Cheng! ”

"Not bad!" Speaking of Qin Cheng, Xue Ze gritted his teeth for a while, "Who let Qin Cheng not know how to restrain and run rampant, as if he was the only minister in the world, but he didn't know that what he did was the wrong way, and he wanted to repeat the mistakes of the wrong way!" Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty said to Emperor Jing that Emperor Jing would cut the domain, and Emperor Jing of Han did what he said, but it caused the rebellion of the Seven Kings, and finally Emperor Jing of Han had to kill Chao Cuo in order to appease the anger of the Seven Kings.

Speaking of this, Xue Ping was excited at first, and then thought of something, sighed, and said: "By borrowing the heads of Qin City to calm everyone's anger, Your Majesty actually made money, because in this way the cultivation and warfare system can be implemented smoothly." In the final analysis, it is the current ministers and scholars who dare not ask too much of His Majesty, nor do they dare to really sabotage this change. ”

"You're wrong!" Xue Ze said, "If Your Majesty kills Qin Cheng at this time, do you think the cultivation and warfare system can be implemented smoothly?" ”

"Although the cultivation and warfare system was first proposed by Qin Cheng, but the death of Qin Cheng will not be so serious, right?" Xue Ping disagreed.

"Stupid!" Xue Ze reprimanded, "Who is Qin Cheng?" He was not only the first minister to propose the system of cultivation and warfare, but also a general who made contributions to the Han Dynasty comparable to that of Han Xin, the king of Qi. Your Majesty killed him, who else in the world would dare to work hard to implement the system of cultivation and warfare? Who else is willing to fight against the Xiongnu for His Majesty's birth and death? ”

Xue Ping suddenly realized and exclaimed: "Killing Qincheng seems to be a condition for the implementation of the cultivation and warfare system proposed by the ministers and scholars to Your Majesty, but in fact, it is to chill the hearts of the people of the world, so that the cultivation and warfare system can only die young, so that the Han army cannot resist the Xiongnu!" Then he said: "In this way, wouldn't the Han and the Xiongnu have hope to return to the time of peace?" ”

"At that time, there will be no generals who have been raised because of their military exploits and those courtiers who have made meritorious contributions to the fight against the Huns," Xue Ze said, "Who else can threaten our status in this court?" ”

"At that time," Xue Ping said excitedly, "we are the unique Optimus Prime of the Han Dynasty!" ”
