Chapter 680: The Sword Goes Sideways
As soon as Ying Gao said it, no matter what happened in the future, he would do it in accordance with Qin Law, Cao Shen knew what Ying Gao was thinking in his heart at that time, indeed, if he wanted to make any moves, those old nobles were almost meaningful, but if they had to do it themselves, what was waiting for them was already self-evident.
"You should still send more people these days, don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case!"
Before leaving, Cao Shen did not forget to remind Yinggao that in his heart, he would always be careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years, and now is the time for Yinggao to enjoy the fruits of his years of hard work, and at this time he can't capsize in the gutter.
In the face of Cao Shen's reminder, Yinggao just nodded slightly, and the emotions on his face were always confident, so that people couldn't see his true reflection on this matter.
And at this time, the gutters that Cao Shen was thinking about in his heart were indeed gathering in a dark place, thinking about some unrealistic things.
In fact, if every old Qin nobleman thought about this matter at home, it might not take long to think about it directly, but if a large number of people with negative energy gathered together, nothing good would happen.
Meng Yi and Meng Tian don't care about them, they seem to have lost the only life-saving straw, in the study of one of them, they are all telling how unworthy their children and grandchildren are, once they die, they will definitely be difficult to gain a foothold in this Xianyang City without the identity and wealth brought by this title.
"These things are all because of the current emperor, if Fusu Gongzi is the emperor of Great Qin, where would he toss so casually?"
I don't know who it is, after being dizzy, they don't care about what they should say and what they shouldn't.
As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly stopped talking, and at this moment, the air seemed to suddenly fall into silence.
"That being said, what's the use of me waiting here to say it? We can't see what our children and grandchildren will be like when we die......"
One of them probably sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere after hearing this, and after sighing, he shook his head and walked out of the room, and then two or three more people followed this man's steps and left.
After the men left, there were less than ten people left in the room, and the ten looked at each other, as if they could see something in each other's eyes, something that seemed to be burning.
"For the sake of our children and grandchildren, even if we die, it will be worth it!"
I don't know who said such a sentence, which triggered a response from almost everyone around them, and in the previous moment, almost all of these people made a choice, that is, they chose the former between their own descendants and themselves or Daqin.
"That's right, if we can't make a decision as soon as we can still say a little bit in this Xianyang City, the position of our descendants will be occupied by the people of the Six Kingdoms sooner or later!"
In their bones, only pure-blooded old Qin people are the nobles of this era, no matter how talented the people of the Six Kingdoms are, no matter how much they have contributed to Great Qin, they are worthless in their eyes, at least compared to the blood flowing on their bodies.
"How many hidden doormen are there in your house?"
Although everyone didn't say what they wanted to do in the end, everyone knew that after Yinggao completely canceled the identity of the doorman, although the vast majority of people dismissed the doormen in their own houses, there were still some people who risked their lives to let the doormen in their homes continue to support them in their own mansions as attendants and other people, in case of emergency, but these people were all low-key after Yinggao issued the edict to dismiss the doormen.
But today, the value of these doormen suddenly came again, in fact, they also know that their employers have put them in their mansions for several years or even more than ten years to eat, drink and spicy food, the so-called is that if one day they really need it, these doormen can give up their lives for them.
And without exception, there are exactly the doormen in the mansions of these people who stayed behind, and if the doormen in these people's homes are gathered, they can be regarded as a small team in this Xianyang City, and furthermore, almost every doorman in the mansion is like them on weekdays to boast about how powerful they are, and over time, they may really think how powerful the doormen in their mansion are.
Everyone didn't say what they wanted these customers to do, but they counted it at the time, and found that there were about eighty or ninety people, and these eighty or ninety masters were almost all their chips, so they knew that this time they had to calculate carefully and use all these good steels on the blade.
Of course, these people knew that because of a new deal in Xianyang City back then, there were people who had almost the same idea as them, but they knew exactly what the ending was.
This time, of course, they knew that their plan might fail, but for the sake of their children and grandchildren, they had to give it up this time.
These people sat together and analyzed, now is the time for Yinggao to eat, drink and have fun every day in Xianyang Palace, Tian Yan, who was almost inseparable from Yinggao before, is pregnant again, and it is obviously the best time to do something.
Having learned the lesson of the previous failure of those people, they think that any physical evidence should not appear, and all these things they planned are explained by these people in person, and after they are clear, they will mobilize the doormen in their own homes, and then find the right time to make a move, so that even if they fail in the end, they should not be involved in themselves, and then as long as they give some money to the families of those doormen, this matter will be over.
But once these disciples successfully assassinated the emperor of Great Qin, it would be a great credit to them, and a cliché was put on the table again, if it really came to that point, they would immediately send someone to the Huashi City of the Peacock Dynasty to welcome Fusu back, and after Fusu came back, it would definitely be a great good thing for them to be the old Qin nobles.
This gathering lasted until midnight, and one by one the men hurried back to their mansions.
They thought that their actions might not attract anyone's attention at this time, but what they didn't know was that not far from their mansion, a pair of eyes were staring at them in the dark, these were the secret posts that Cao Shen had arranged in Xianyang City for an unknown number of years, in this city, whether it was ordinary people or nobles, as long as there was a little extraordinary action, Cao Shen would know through his own secret whistles.
They are the eyes and ears of Great Qin in Xianyang City, as long as they are there, Cao Shen has nothing to ignore.
"What, after they came out of Meng Yi's mansion, they gathered until midnight, I don't know what they were discussing?" Almost at the same time as they dispersed, the news had already reached Cao Shen's ears.
"Exactly, this gathering is on such a large scale and for a long time, and at such a time, I am afraid that nothing good will happen......"
Cao Shen's deputy has been following him for many years, and he has a very good idea of what Cao Shen wants to know, so he expressed some of his worries at that time.
"The king already has an edict, this kind of thing doesn't have to be like him every time, pay close attention to everyone who participated in this gathering, if there is any feng shui grass movement, report it immediately, and if they have violated the Qin law, do it directly according to the Qin law, and then inform the king after it is implemented!"
Cao Shen already had a very clear understanding of what Yinggao meant before, he knew that Yinggao definitely didn't have anything to think about these people, but Yinggao still wanted to give them a chance, if they didn't cause trouble casually, Yinggao wouldn't treat them well, but if they didn't follow the rules, Yinggao wouldn't have any mercy on these guys who had never given him any substantial support.
Of course, these people don't know, although Daqin can basically be said to be at ease inside and outside now, and the recent rumors about Yinggao are all about watching dances in Xianyang Palace every day, drinking some wine, and eating specialties from all over the world, just like a look of pleasure, but Daqin's huge machine has never stopped turning.
After they returned to their respective mansions, they didn't say anything to their families, and immediately found the doorman hidden in their mansion, and told them what they were going to do this time.
The reason why the doorman is called the doorman is that he does enjoy a luxurious life and a lot of income, and under such a glamorous appearance, if their employer really has the possibility of losing their heads to do something for them to do, they must be able to stand, which is what they already know when they choose this profession.
Although this is something that can be broken and the chances of success are very small, these customers have nothing to fear, and the only thing they can ask is for their employer to give them a large sum of money before they leave, and then give it to their families, maybe that's what these people are all about.
They are basically incognito, and they have no household registration in the brand-new Great Qin Realm, and even if they die, no one will know who they are.
There is no doubt that most of the doormen agreed to do this, and it was still completely verbal, these people chose a courtyard that was only one street away from Xianyang Palace, and let these doormen secretly gather and take this courtyard one after another, for the next action.
All this seemed to them to be very hidden, but what they didn't know was that in the eyes of the people under Cao Shen's command, it was as if they were happening right under their noses.
"Xianyang Order, these people have gathered some people in their own mansion to a place very close to Xianyang Palace, if they don't make a move, I'm afraid there will be a change!"
No matter what the matter is, as long as it involves Xianyang Palace, the urgency of the matter is different, in case these people suddenly enter Xianyang Palace, although it is rumored that Xianyang Palace is full of guards trained by Tian Yan himself, each with one as ten, but let people in, it is Cao Shen's dereliction of duty on this Xianyang Order.
"Don't worry, this article alone is not enough to put these people to death, we are based on Qin Law, not our judgment, you have to be patient, I will discuss with the Zhu family."
Another very important point of working under Yinggao's hands is not to worry about responsibility, Daqin under Yinggao's governance has several sets of strong rules and regulations, but for his cronies, Yinggao can be regarded as giving them enough freedom, whether it is Han Xin, Xiao He or the Zhu family, Cao Shen, they all have some freedom within their own authority, but Yinggao also once told them that it is not terrible to make mistakes, but what is terrible is that they don't even have the courage to make mistakes.
The reason why Cao Shen didn't bother Yinggao at this point this time was because he knew Yinggao's thoughts about these people through the previous conversation, once these people couldn't wait honestly, they could only be completely erased from the nobles of Great Qin, otherwise once they were given a chance one day later, they would definitely continue to do such things.
After finding the Zhu family, Cao Shen informed the Zhu family of all his discoveries, and the safety of Daqin's guards and Xianyang Palace were all in the hands of the Zhu family, and the Zhu family of course also understood what Cao Shen meant, and the two of them knew what they should do next, so when these two people separated, in fact, the fate of those nobles and their disciples had already been settled.
They weren't stupid, they knew that the chances of success if they infiltrated Xianyang Palace directly were very small, so they were also waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity that would allow them to ease the difficulty.
This opportunity did not make them wait too long, a few days later, Daqin ushered in a small festival, thinking that the birthday of the old Qin monarch, Yinggao did not pay much attention to such a thing after ascending the throne, but this time, Xianyang Palace released the news, claiming that Yinggao would personally go to the temple to worship, and walk through Xianyang City, in order to see the lives of the people.
