Chapter 329: Top Secret Mission
Qin Jun Yingsi took a few shots and replied, "Oh, why didn't I think of this trick?" The younger brother is really a smart person, no wonder the people call you a 'wise man'. ”
Because of his clever plan to get a disease, his worries were suddenly untied a lot, and he happily said: "Gao Sheng's loyalty is still credible, after all, he is a native of our Qin land. ”
"Sending him to Anyi City for a walk, even if he can't persuade Zhang Yi to come to our Qin State as he wishes, it will be very advantageous to inquire about the military situation of Wei, Zhao and other countries in Anyi City."
Seeing that his suggestion was adopted by his brother, he was also relieved, and said: "I rushed back to Xianyang in a hurry, and I finally didn't run in vain." ”
The two of them planned to win over Zhang Yi, so they urgently sent someone to Gao Sheng's mansion to summon him to the palace to discuss matters.
Gao Sheng has been involved in Wei Wei's "absconding" a few years ago, because his daughter Gao Yan was involved, and then he was suspicious of Qin Jun and was alienated from the government.
He himself was also disheartened, and he was concentrating on the affairs of the sect of the Xitumo family at home, and was no longer enthusiastic about state affairs, so he wanted to spend the second half of his life like this, and gradually faded out of the political affairs of the Qin State completely.
He himself is also waiting for the day when his identity is no longer sensitive, he will go to Luoyang in the east to visit his daughter.
On this day, he was urging the Mo family disciples under his door to practice martial arts in the mansion, and the porter of the Gao Mansion trotted to find him, and reported: "The Zhongshu in the palace ordered Li Wenlai to read Qin Jun's edict. ”
When Gao Sheng heard this, he couldn't help but tighten his scalp, and he thought to himself: "Could it be that the monarch remembered something a few years ago and wants to settle old accounts with me?" ”
Gao Sheng had the intention to escape, but he thought: "I can't avoid it, I don't care about myself, but this big family, as well as thousands of children of the Mo family, don't they want to suffer together?" ”
He sighed secretly in his heart, and ordered the porter to bring Li Wen to see him in a low mood.
Li Wen was still wearing court clothes, and he looked like he was still on duty in the palace just now. Li Wen hurriedly walked in, he saw Gao Sheng, and said in a hurried tone: "The king ordered you to enter the palace with me immediately without delay." ”
Gao Sheng thought it was an edict being read, but he didn't expect it to be a very ordinary oral edict. He replied: "Li Zhongshu and wait for a while, wait for me to change into court clothes, and enter the palace with you immediately." ”
Li Wen glanced at Gao Sheng with slanted eyes, and said impatiently: "Your Majesty has asked you not to delay at all, what kind of court clothes do you change, so let me go." ”
Gao Sheng let out an "oh" and muttered in a low voice: "It's so urgent." Okay, then please lead the way in front of Li Zhongshu, and I will go with you. ”
Gao Sheng briefly ordered the disciples who practiced martial arts to study on their own for an hour, but they didn't have time to explain to the people in the mansion, hurriedly sat in a carriage, and followed Li Wen to Xianyang Palace.
Li Wen led the way in front, and they didn't stop all the way, and went straight to the main hall of Xianyang Palace.
Gao Sheng was also very surprised when he saw the two brothers Ying Si and Zhu Li Ji in the palace.
Qin Jun Yingsi saw Gao Sheng, and without waiting for Gao Sheng to kneel down and finish the salute, he beckoned to Gao Sheng and said, "Doctor Gao doesn't need to be polite, come and sit down and talk." ”
Gao Sheng raised his head and saw Qin Jun Yingsi's enthusiastic face, he felt very puzzled: "What's going on?" Why is he so uncharacteristically so kind? ”
With doubts in his heart, Gao Sheng cautiously took two steps forward and knelt beside Ying Si. Zhu Li also smiled and said to Gao Sheng: "Why should Doctor Gao be nervous, I invite you to come this time, I have something important to ask you for." ”
He said as softly as possible for his brother Yingsi, but he was also worried that his brother Yingsi would not be able to let go of the monarch's shelf, so he neglected Gao Sheng, so that Gao Sheng still had a grudge, which was very unfavorable to the task to be performed.
You must know that Lu Dao Gaosheng is carrying out an extremely secret mission, and if he does not envelop his heart and appear to be in tune with his mind, it will not only be of no benefit to the mission, but may also be counterproductive.
Ying Si heard the soft words of his younger brother Zhu Liji, and his heart was not a taste, how could he not know that Lu Dao was pulling Gao Sheng at this moment! But to let him, the king of a great country, take the initiative to show favor to his courtiers, he is still a little unaccustomed.
However, things are urgent, the situation is urgent, and now the war in Anyi does not allow Win Si to act completely according to his own heart. Although he felt awkward, he was not a stupid person who insisted on going his own way, on the contrary, he knew that he had to lower his body when it was time to lower his body.
He knows very well: When the princes are at war endlessly, which country's monarch is not trying his best to attract talents, and which country's monarch can let his temperament come to his heart's content?
Thousands of grievances, all kinds of unwillingness, can only be pressed in the bottom of his heart, you are a king, and he also has helpless times.
Ying Si hurriedly followed his younger brother Zhu Liji's words, and said in as cordial a tone as possible: "The widow has been busy with state affairs in the past few years, and has not talked to Dr. Gao in private, and he often thinks about it, and he doesn't want to have a chance today. Come, come, Doctor Gao sat closer and spoke more conveniently. ”
Gao Sheng looked at Qin Jun Yingsi awkwardly, took another step forward, and finally didn't dare to go any further. Back then, Wei Wei also entered the palace from the main gate of Xianyang Palace with him, and he was equal to the monarch, but in the end, it was not the opposite of the noble, but ended up killing himself.
Since then, Gao Sheng has also become wary of Qin Jun Yingsi, and he doesn't dare to be as pretentious as he was at the beginning. Therefore, the closer Ying Si let him, the more frightened he became.
All this was seen in the eyes of Zhu Liji, and he sighed in his heart, thinking: "It's easy to kill a hero, but it chills the hearts of a courtier!" The mind of his elder brother makes it clear to the world, it was originally a car cracking Shang Ying, and then forcing Wei Wei to death, all of which are shadows that are difficult to get rid of in the hearts of his courtiers. ”
He understood Gao Sheng's concerns, so he said: "Doctor Gao is loyal to our Qin State, and he is a model for me to emulate. ”
Qin Jun Yingsi also echoed: "Yes, the widow often thinks of Dr. Gao's loyalty and courage, and he was ordered to go to the east to carry out his duties back then, and he never had two hearts. Such a rare character is really a blessing for the country and a blessing for the widow. ”
The words of Zhu Lijian guided Qin Jun to win the si, and the purpose was to dispel the doubts in Gao Sheng's heart and reassure him. Sure enough, Gao Sheng listened to the two brothers singing and harmonizing, and the nervous look on his face eased a lot.
He thought to himself, "It seems that his loyalty is still recognized by the king, and in view of this, he probably will not treat me as capriciously as he does to the people of the East, right?" ”
Gao Sheng also began to show his heart, and he followed the words of the two brothers: "The king is sympathetic to Weichen, and Weichen is very moved. The minister is a Qin person, of course, I have to share the worries of the king and be loyal to the country, which is the responsibility of my Qin people, and it is not worth mentioning. ”
Seeing that the conversation was gradually entering the predetermined track, he no longer preemptively interjected, he was a very intelligent person, and he knew that he would assign a task to Gao Sheng, and his brother who was the monarch would personally issue the edict, which highlighted the authority of the monarch.
Sure enough, Ying Si himself was not willing to let his younger brother lead the conversation anymore, he asked, "Doctor Gao must have heard about the situation of our army's battle in Anyi, right?" ”
Gao Sheng didn't understand what the monarch summoned at this time, of course he heard the unfavorable news on the battlefield of Anyi, so he nodded, did not speak, and waited for the monarch to find out the reason.
Qin Jun Yingsi then said: "I won't tell you the truth, we have encountered some trouble in Anyi. It was all that Oriental Gongsun Yan, who was greedy for merit, and as a result, he was ambushed by the coalition army led by Su Qin, and our army suffered heavy casualties. ”
Gao Sheng said "um", and said in his heart: "Gongsun Yan's temperament is like that, he is arrogant and arrogant, and his mind is dizzy from time to time. Didn't you suffer the same loss under Quwo City in the past! He nodded again.
Ying Si saw that Gao Sheng was listening to his words calmly with bated breath, obviously no longer as raw as when he first met, so he tried his best to be sincere. He added:
"Now, our army cannot advance, and there are concerns about retreating, and the situation is somewhat critical. The reason for inviting Dr. Gao to come this time is to let you go to Anyi, and with your favors, get close to Su Qin, Zhang Yi and others, and find out the truth in Anyi City for our army, so that our army can have a proper action strategy. ”
When Gao Sheng heard this, he understood Qin Junyingsi's purpose of summoning him, which turned out to be a mission with the nature of a spy.
He knew that there was something wrong with his actions, but he thought about it again in his heart: "The Qin army has encountered danger in Anyi, and some of his Mo family disciples are in the army at the moment, as a Qin person, of course he has the responsibility to rescue the Qin army." ”
Gao Sheng thought of this, so he replied: "Thanks to the king's trust in Weichen, for the sake of the Qin State, the minister will never give up, not to mention just going to Anyi City for a trip." ”
Ying Si slapped his face and exclaimed, "Good, good." Doctor Gao is really a loyal minister of my Qin State, and the widow knows that he has not seen the wrong person, and at the critical moment, he has to rely on the virtuous ministers of my Qin State. ”
He was also very relieved, because what he had been worried about was that Gao Sheng would not be able to resign, and it would not be easy to find the right person.
Zhu Liji hurriedly praised Gao Sheng and said: "Doctor Gao is upright, decent, and very popular, this mission is really necessary for you." At a critical juncture, the preciousness of talents was revealed. ”
Gao Sheng was originally a person who was dedicated to the duty of the Qin State, and his personality was overbearing, but now he was praised by the two brothers Ying Si and Zhu Liji, and he couldn't help but be moved in his heart.
He replied: "If the king has any task to ask Weichen to complete, even if he is instructed, Weichen must also do a good job." ”
Qin Jun Yingsi couldn't stop nodding his head at this time, thinking to himself: "This Gao Sheng seems to be really a trustworthy Qin person. ”
He commanded: "You are going to Anyi this time, and the widow has a top-secret task for you to complete, which is extremely secret, and it must be done by a loyal man like you." ”
