Li Cheng looked at Liu Kan calmly, but the situation when he left Xianyang appeared in his mind.

In fact, at the end of the year, the eldest prince Ying Fusu returned to Xianyang to report to the first emperor. As Fusu's subordinate Sima, Li Cheng naturally had to accompany him. However, as soon as they entered Xianyang, several major events occurred one after another, which attracted the attention of Fusu.

The first thing was the incident of the pit killing of the monk led by Lu Zigaoshen's disease-free master and apprentice.

However, Fusu didn't care very much about this matter. Originally, I didn't like those monks who pretended to be gods and ghosts and deceived the public, so let's kill them...... The problem is that the First Emperor has a kind of distrust of everyone because of this incident.

Previously, the First Emperor was distrustful of the descendants of the Six Kingdoms!

Later, due to Chun Yuyue's opposition to Lao Qin's policy, the book burning incident was introduced, which made the First Emperor bored with the Confucian doctors who stayed in Xianyang.

Today, Na Lu Zigao's master and apprentice have won the respect of the first emperor.

didn't expect that these two people would have hidden evil intentions. The most terrifying thing is that the First Emperor felt that the attendants of Xianyang Palace were not loyal. Especially on the first day of the first lunar month, on the way back from the sacrifice, the first emperor saw the luxurious carriage and horse honor guard of Tingwei Li Si, so he casually muttered a few words to the people around him. Unexpectedly, on the second day, Li Si immediately changed the carriage and horse, which made the First Emperor furious.

The combination of these many factors made the first emperor more suspicious. It even led to a distrust of the old Qin ministers. The beginning of the new year. Prime Minister Wang Juan resigned, and Li Si took over as prime minister.

On the surface, everything seems to be in order.

However, the first emperor took advantage of the change of prime minister to greatly reduce the power of the prime minister's office. Most of the affairs in charge of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the past were controlled by the First Emperor in his own hands. Immediately after, the Duwei Army was included in the Lantian Battalion. And the person who controls the Lantian camp is the prince and general Lu...... This is equivalent to stripping the Lantian battalion from the General's Mansion and turning it into a private army of the First Emperor. When those ministers are no longer worthy of my trust, at least my sons will not betray me and be detrimental to Great Qin!

Fusu had a kind of worry that he had never felt before.

When the superior no longer trusts his subordinates. That is, the beginning of decay.

Fortunately, although the First Emperor no longer believed in Li Si and others. But at least it's still the same for Meng Yi.

The second thing. When the First Emperor began to prepare to regain control of Bashu. Shangqing Meng Yi found out Zhao Gao, the order of the CRRC government. Through his son-in-law Yan Le, he accepted Qin Tong's bribes. Zhao Gao was almost executed. If it weren't for the fact that the First Emperor was quite fond of Zhao Gao. stepped forward to save Zhao Gaodi's life. Zhao Gao's family is only afraid that it will be more than lucky. There was nothing wrong with that. But Fusu was worried.

The kind of Qingming official rule at the beginning of the unification of the Six Kingdoms of Great Qin. It seems to be dying out gradually.

A small waiter. How dare you accept bribes like this? Then the local officials under Lao Qin. What would it be like?

If it is said. If these two things are still internal worries, then the third thing is obviously an external trouble!

The first day of the first month. Spring thunder exploded.

After an ancient pine on Liangfu Mountain in Jibei County was struck by lightning, someone dug out a human-shaped strange stone from under the ancient pine, and there was an old Qin death on the chest, and the great Chu Xing; Yan Zisheng, Tian three points twelve inscriptions.

The so-called inscription refers to the metal vessel. Characters that are either convex or recessed.

The inscription on the strange stone of the human shape is like a natural mixture, which makes people reverie infinitely. This Liangfu Mountain has been a place of Zen since ancient times. Now that the thunder has split Liangfu Mountain, and strange stones have appeared, is it the will of God? This theory of ghosts and gods has been extremely powerful for demagogic use since ancient times. In addition, this incident was sudden, waiting for the local officials to react. The proverb has spread all over the world.

Even Kanzhong got the news. For a while, people were panicked.

The first six words of the proverb are not difficult to understand. As early as the time of the fall of the Chu State. There is a proverb left by Nangong, the yin and yang of Chu: Although Chu has three households, the death of Qin will be Chu. These six words just correspond to that proverb, and many people understand it.

However, the last six words seem to be very meaningful.

Yanzi, presumably it is Yanzi who is the same name...... However, Yan Zi has been dead for hundreds of years, what does this Yan Zisheng mean?

Well, it is not unreasonable for Quan Zuo Yanzi to be reborn to explain the words of three words. But what is the explanation for the meaning of Tian Sandi? Whatever that means, however, one thing is clear. That is, some people can't help but jump out and make ghosts!

The First Emperor, what a hardened man!

How can even the gods be intimidated by this proverb?

Not only did it fail to intimidate him, but it made the First Emperor angry. After getting the news, he did not hesitate to order that all the people within a radius of 300 miles of Liangfu Mountain should be killed. Even with the officials of Boyang County (Jibei County Administration) and Yingxian County (now Laiwu, Shandong) near Liangfu Mountain, all the officials of the two counties were disposed of, with a total population of more than 100,000 in the two counties.

Fortunately, Ying Fusu and Meng Yi finally persuaded the first emperor.

However, the First Emperor ordered that the matter should be thoroughly investigated, and the perpetrators should be found out in the shortest possible time. If the main messenger behind the scenes cannot be found out within the time limit, the officials of Boyang and Yingxian, including more than 100,000 people, will all be beheaded.

Who's going to take over this?

Not to mention that the matter was born in Jibei County, which was originally the territory of the old Qi State. There are countless wealthy families in the local area, and the people also have a lot of resentment towards Lao Qin. Coupled with the fact that some time has passed, it is conceivable that it will be difficult to track down this matter.

What's more, if the tracking fails, you will have to bear the wrath of the First Emperor......

Therefore, when the First Emperor inquired about the place, no one in the Manchu Dynasty was willing to stand up and take over. This also made the First Emperor Yingzheng even more angry.

In the end, it was the general Feng Zheng who stood up. "There is a recommendation from the minister, maybe he can take on this matter."

Ying Zheng forced his anger and asked, "I don't know who the general wants to recommend?" ”

"The minister once heard that Liu Kan, the governor of Surabaya, was resourceful, brave and resolute, and had the talent of a general, which was even valued by the eldest prince. General Meng Tian and Shangqing Meng Yi also praised him many times in front of his ministers. He said that he knew the law, that he was able to stand still in the face of danger, and that he was thoughtful.

Today, the Sihong area is calm and there is nothing unusual about it.

Why didn't Your Majesty order Captain Liu Kan to take the post of Captain of Surabaya, temporarily take the responsibility of the court lieutenant, and come forward to thoroughly investigate the matter of Liangfu Mountain in Jibei County? ”

Ting Weizheng. He is a subordinate officer of the court lieutenant, and he is in charge of the affairs of the prison.

Now, because Li Si was promoted to prime minister, the position of court lieutenant is temporarily vacant.

According to Qin Law, Liu Kan is too young to take on a position like Tingwei. And it is impossible for the First Emperor to let him take responsibility.

Feng Zheng also knew this, so he only let Liu Kan serve as the court lieutenant.

As a military lieutenant, he served as a court lieutenant, which can also be said to be in the past. Ying Zheng pondered for a moment. agreed to Feng Zheng's suggestion.

Ying Zheng originally paid attention to Liu Kan because of Cheng Gongzhi and Qin Qing.

In addition, Meng Tian and Meng Yi, the two people he trusted the most, had recommended this Liu Kan. also made Ying Zheng have a strong interest in Liu Kan. This time to track down the matter of Liang Father Mountain, it is just a good time to observe Liu Kan's methods. If it is really as good as Meng Tian Mengyi said, coupled with Liu Kan's status as an old Qin, Ying Zheng is really willing to train Liu Kan well.

After all, the old people in the court left one by one. I need fresh blood to add

Fusu is unwilling to let Liu Kan take on this matter! Although he values Liu Kan, Liu Kan's age is too young after all, and he is inevitably inexperienced.

Fight the battlefield and make suggestions...... Maybe Liu Kan can take on it.

But the matter of Liang's father mountain is very important. In addition, he was born in a place where he was born and the environment is complex. Even if an old minister comes forward, he may not be able to handle it properly. What's more, Liu Kan is only twenty-one years old, how can he take on such an important task?

Of course, Fusu is also very clear. The matter decided by the father. It's hard to change any more.

Besides, this is not an opportunity for Liu Kan. One grind. Even if Liu Kan failed, Fusu was sure to protect Liu Kan in front of the First Emperor. Maybe in this way, Liu Kan will be more loyal to himself...... Maybe, he can really get the job done?

So although Fusu was not very happy, he did not object.

In private, he admonished the First Emperor: "Father, although Liu Kan is talented, he is still young. The situation in Jibei County was complicated, and Erchen was worried that it would be difficult for Liu Kan to suppress the local officials. Erchen thought that there was still a need for someone to guide and support him behind his back...... Li You, the county guard of Sanchuan County, is the son of the prime minister, proficient in criminal law, resourceful, and loyal to his father, why not let him secretly help? ”

Fusu's thoughts, Ying Zheng can naturally detect it.

But think about it too!

The matter of Liang's father mountain is very important, and Liu Kan may not be able to take on the heavy responsibility alone.

So Yingzheng agreed to let Li You assist in secret. But on the bright side, it is still up to Liu Kan to investigate the matter and start as soon as possible.

Li Cheng was assigned by Fusu and will be responsible for assisting Liu Kan!

After conveying the will of the First Emperor, he secretly observed Liu Kan's reaction.

Liu Kan pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Since His Majesty has decreed, Liu Kan should be edicted...... Then please wait for me for three days, and when I arrange the affairs here, I will go to Sanchuan County with you immediately. In this way, you can rest first, and I will set the wine for you in the evening, and wash the dust in the wind. ”

Li Cheng also knew that Liu Kan was going to discuss with Baman.

He nodded at the moment, and went to the wing room to settle down with him.

Back in the study, Barman and the others were still there. As soon as they saw Liu Kan coming in, everyone hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

Liu Kan had a gloomy face and told the story again. However, he did not know exactly what the task was, so he did not elaborate.

"Your Majesty personally issued an edict, I'm afraid the matter is not small!"

Barman couldn't help but get a little worried. At the same time, there was a touch of sourness in her heart, because she knew that Liu Kan was afraid that she would leave soon!

When I think about it, the things that happened during this time are like a dream.

I thought that Liu Kan was here, and his life's major events could be over. didn't think about it, my grandmother died suddenly, and the Qin family was torn apart. If it weren't for Liu Kan by her side, Baman really didn't know if he would have survived. With Liu Kan here, no matter what trouble he encounters, Baman doesn't feel worried. Now that Liu Kan was about to leave, Baman felt as if he had lost his backbone all of a sudden.

The backer is gone, and the backbone is gone......

Baman's mind became extremely complicated. I don't know when Liu Kan will be reunited?

Liu Kan gently held Baman's soft twing.

"I don't know exactly what it is...... Actually, I'm not worried about that. What I'm worried about now is, if I'm gone, will you be able to hold on alone? You have just gained a firm foothold in Jiangyang, and although you have the help of your brother Lao Cao, I am still not at ease.

The attitude of the imperial court, if you don't show it for a day, you won't be safe for a day.

If Qin Tong really makes a move, I'm really worried about you...... Why don't you do it? Old Tang, you will stay in Jiangyang for the time being, assisting Man'er, how about it? ”

Baman's heart suddenly warmed.

Tang Li smiled and nodded, "I don't care, if Miss Man is willing, I should stay and assist with all my heart."

As for the attitude of the imperial court...... Ah Kan, I'm afraid you're a fan of the authorities...... In my opinion, the attitude of the imperial court is very obvious.

Miss Man has already made a gesture, and I believe that His Majesty will not be unaware. I am sure that the coffin of the old man must be on the way to Jiangyang.

The reason why His Majesty transferred you away was, on the one hand, that he didn't want you, as a court official, to interfere too much in the affairs of Bashu; On the other hand, I don't want to use your intentions...... According to my estimates, as soon as the coffin of the old Qing arrives in Jiangyang, I am afraid that it will be the day when His Majesty will rectify the Qin family. Miss Man, you have to remember. If the coffin really arrives in Jiangyang, don't say anything, don't do anything.

In terms of business, they have their own old people to take care of it.

You declare to the outside world that you want to keep filial piety for the elderly...... With the help of the imperial court, Qin Tong could not be too arrogant. The thing you have to do is very simple, that is, try to eliminate the influence of Qing Lao in Bashu. We are businessmen now, and we can only be businessmen. ”

Kui Che was on the side, nodding his head again and again, expressing his approval.

Liu Kan smiled, "If it is really as Old Tang said, then Taoguang is really a good choice." ”

Baman sighed, looked at Liu Kan and said, "But...... You're leaving! ”

When Tang Likui heard this, he suddenly became embarrassed. The two glanced at each other, got up quietly, and silently exited the room.

The door closed, and Liu Kan stared at Baman's delicate pink face, and he didn't know what to say for a while. I thought it was an easy thing, but I didn't expect it to have many twists and turns. This time, I don't know when I will be able to meet the Yiren again!

There seems to be a fire burning in my heart......

Liu Kan couldn't help but stand up, took Baman's hand, walked to the bookcase, unfolded Cheng Gong's paper, picked up the pen and pondered for a while, burying the pen and writing.

Baman didn't understand at first, but just quietly beside Liu Kan, watching him write at the desk.

The delicate body suddenly trembled slightly, and in her bright eyes, there was a sad light, and her lips opened lightly, and she slowly murmured......

"I want to know you and live a long life.

There are no mountains and no tombs, and the rivers are exhausted.

Thunder and tremors in winter, rain and snow in summer.

Heaven and earth are together, but dare to be with the king. ”

All the sorrows in my heart disappeared in an instant. What is left is endless sweetness, Baman quietly looked at the ink words on the paper, the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing, two lines of tears, flowing down silently...... With this poem, although Man is dead, there are no regrets!
